Every year of spring, many people pour into Beijing, making the already lively capital more and more noisy.

Alleys near the Gongyuan, Guanyin Temple in the west, Shuimo Hutong, Fujian Siying, Dingyin Hutong, Mounting Hutong in the south, archway Hutong in the east, and the total fishing alley in the north, every family rents out the apartment, and each room has three hardware or ten gold.

If the price comes a little too late, you will not be able to find a suitable place to live.

The prices of all kinds of things related to the fate have risen one after another, but the local squires are already a squire, and most of the days are rich, how can they care about this bit of money.

The capital is full of people who come to catch up with the exam, Wangxian Lou is the most popular place for scholars, since the Shangyuan Festival, there are countless book clubs, poetry meetings held here, although Qu Qingyan does not leave home, but there are thousands of mountains in her changes in this capital are also clear.

At this time, when she heard the rumor of her subordinates, she subconsciously frowned, where did she come from in Shandong Province?

"Where's the post?"

The subordinate hurriedly handed over the post, and when she unfolded it, Zong Zirong's name fell on it, and she subconsciously rolled her eyes.

"Fourth brother, do you know this person?"

"Zong Zirong, the eldest grandson of Si Zong Handong, the envoy of Shandong Province, is the Xie Yuan of Shandong Province."

"Bring people to the front hall, and my fourth brother and I will go over."

The subordinate hurriedly ran out, Qu Qingyan didn't want to have too much contact with this person in his private heart, and Zong Zirong's smile always subconsciously brought a few calculations, which made her particularly unhappy.

"Big brother, don't have more contact with this person, be careful of getting fishy."

Her words had no beginning or end, which made Qu Qingwen a little puzzled, the distance from Meiyuan to the front hall was not too far, it was really not easy to say more, she could only drop a sentence: "I'll talk about it in detail when I have a chance later." ”

Zong Zirong set off into Beijing on the fourth day of the new year, during the New Year, he stressed the stability of the four peaces, and went out to see the days, he went on the road on the fourth day of the new year, and the tenth day of the first month had already arrived in the capital, and the Zong family had a set of three courtyards in Beijing.

It's not big, but it's enough to settle down temporarily.

It's just that although he didn't rush to Qu's house early when he entered Beijing, he didn't care about him very much, and he didn't bother to guess what his purpose was for coming this time.

"Qu Sigongzi, don't come unharmed."

I haven't seen him for a few months, Zong Zirong raised his eyes and looked at the door of the hall, and felt that Qu Qingyan was like a shining pearl that began to bloom little by little in the polishing of time.

is already a good man in private, but at this time, seeing Qu Qingyan's pretty face, he couldn't take his eyes off.

Not to mention that Qu Qingyan was disgusted in his heart, even Qu Qingwen felt that this Zong Zirong was really presumptuous, and he dared to be so prodigal in Qu Mansion, which was really a little eye-opening.

"I didn't expect Zong Gongzi to arrive in the capital so early."

It's the fifth day of the second month, and it's only a few days before the end of the Spring Festival, and this time is not early.

Zong Zirong didn't care too much, gritted his teeth and looked away from her face and turned to Qu Qingwen, "This is Brother Dun Min, who is famous as a master of Beijing, right?" ”

When he came up, he called the table word, and Qu Qingwen's face remained unchanged and arched his hand: "Zong Gongzi has a good reputation, and he is in the next Qu Qingwen." ”

Zongzi Rongte actually didn't have any special purpose in coming to Qu Mansion, but he just wanted to come and see Qu Qingyan, and now that people have seen it, only the face and figure that made him extremely satisfied made him more and more satisfied, and he was a little unbearable somewhere in his heart and lower body.

His unconcealed gaze made Qu Qingyan a little disgusted, and she couldn't sit down anymore: "It is difficult for Zong Gongzi to get the house, it is said that he should stay for lunch, but there are a lot of complicated things at home these days, and I hope that Zong Gongzi will forgive me for the inconvenience of entertaining." ”

She got up and raised her hand to drive people away, and her words and actions were extremely unkind, which made Zong Zirong's heart rise a little angry.

The smile on his face was about to be hung up, and he snorted coldly in his heart, when he won the top prize in this subject, he would be on the rise in the future, and the humiliation he had received from Qu Qingyan would definitely be recovered under him one day!

Zong Zirong threw his sleeve robe and left Qufu behind his subordinates.

Qu Qingyan was so disgusted that he didn't even send him off, Qu Qingwen looked at the back of Zong Zirong leaving coldly, and he had a lot of questions in his heart.

"This Zong Zirong should be a person who is not easy to mess with, how did the fourth brother get involved with him?"

Qu Qingyan rubbed her cheeks irritably, and the faces that originally satisfied her several times had begun to dislike her because of the changes one after another.

In Qu Qingwen's efforts to hold back her laughter, she told her how the two met in the teahouse.

Qu Qingwen clenched his fist with his empty hand to block the corner of his lips and coughed vigorously, blocking the uncontrollable smile: "Fourth brother is saying that this Zong Zirong is already unashamed to say that he will definitely win Xie Yuan?" ”

He didn't feel like this when he was in Kaifeng Mansion back then, and it turned out that he really couldn't do Xie Yuan's position, and he was only ranked tenth on the big list when he was in the middle of the list.

Qu Qingyan now thinks back to all kinds of things when he was in Shandong before, and he feels that this is like a thread, hidden in the thread, and he doesn't know what kind of scene is at the other end of this thread.

"Yes, in December, Lord Yu sent someone to send a copy of the Dengke record of this section in Shandong Province, the first article in it is Zong Zirong's article, what does that article say, if you have to have an explanation, it is stable, stable to the point of being both brilliant and mediocre."

"There are still articles like this?"

Qu Qingwen became more and more incomprehensible, a person's article is the same as this person's character, and there is such a sharp spirit in the sharp humanities, and the articles made by people with a calm temperament and do not like to talk too much will bring out this incompatible contradiction.

Even if this Zong Zirong doesn't understand, he can feel the arrogance of the other party, can such a person make a stable article?

The two brothers looked at each other and could already see what each other really thought.

"I don't know if you and my rooms are next to each other, if they are too far apart, the fourth brother should be careful to take care of himself."

Qu Qingyan smiled bitterly and nodded, what gave her a headache was never Zong Zirong or the rest of the people eyeing her face, and she still didn't think of a way to deal with the body search before Chun Yan left the field.

The approach of spring made her more and more nervous, so that her long-awaited dream finally came in the quiet night.

The exam questions in this subject are very similar to those in Shandong, and the exam questions are not difficult.

Even if Qu Qingyan completed three exams in her soul, her name was still in the penultimate place when she was released.

Rising in the middle means going one step further with being an official, Qu Qingyan looked at his name on the list in a daze, if she will take the exam in February next year, how can this be?

She already has someone in her heart, how can she live like this!

The hand she hid in her sleeve robe was tightly pinched, and she was about to go back to the house to explain to Qu Wenhai one by one, and a warm big hand fell on her shoulder.
