The distance from the front of the hospital to the back of the window was not short, and when Shang Mingjie finally crept under the window, the conversation inside had been going on for a long time. With-Dream- . lā

The back window of the small study was not far from the inner room, but they lowered their voices, and Shang Mingjie pricked up his ears and couldn't hear what they were saying.

Xi Yan had the audacity to pull the window, and it turned out to be ...... Pulled away.

The master and servant looked at each other, and finally Shang Mingjie's careful window opened, and he was about to climb in when he raised his legs, so frightened that Xi Yan hurriedly grabbed him, pointed to the window and pointed to himself.

This is a small window, Shang Mingjie may climb in, but the movement must be not small, so let's come.

Shang Mingjie bent his knees to step on him, and the master and servant were about to work together when they heard the sound of walking in the inner room, and the two of them were so frightened that they immediately lay down and gently closed the window.

But for fear of making a move, there was still a crack in the window, and the two of them looked at each other sweatingly, Shang Mingjie felt that if he was caught, he would be beaten at most, and he shivered, pushed him, and motioned him to hurry up.

Xi Yan obviously thought of this, he hesitated for a moment, and finally saw the master glaring at him, so he landed on the ground with both hands, gently crawled out, and after walking ten steps, he bowed his body and walked out slowly.

There was only Shang Mingjie left under the window in an instant.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and knelt on the ground and sneaked up to look through the gap.

Shang Ping, who was still distressed just now, walked in with a middle-aged man, Shang Mingjie still felt that he was familiar, but he always couldn't remember where he had seen it.

Shang Ping walked straight to the desk, took something from the drawer and handed it to him, and said in a low but clear voice: "Now that she is very favored in front of His Majesty, and she is still in the capital, will it be bad to make a rash move?" ”

"It was precisely because she was in the capital that we did it, Jiangnan is not close to the capital, and when she received the news, the situation would be decided early," the middle-aged man persuaded: "We didn't expect her to leave Jiangnan suddenly, and she stayed in the capital for so long. It's not too late now, it's really too late when she returns to Jiangnan. ”

Shang Ping was silent.

The middle-aged man couldn't help frowning and asked, "Does my uncle still have any doubts?" ”

Shang Mingjie was stunned when he heard this title, this is from his uncle's family?

He frowned and thought, but he didn't remember that he had seen this person next to his second uncle, but if this person was not by his second uncle's side, could he still be by his eldest uncle's side?

Shang Mingjie was in a daze, he saw his uncle a limited number of times, and most of them were when he was young, so when did he see this person?

Shang Mingjie was thinking about it, and the conversation in the room also started again, Shang Ping said after careful consideration: "Lin Run is not still in Suzhou, and his ability should not be underestimated. ”

Shang Mingjie outside the window was stunned and his eyes widened slightly.

"Don't worry, the officials in Jiangnan don't recognize Lin Run, his role is limited, as long as she stays in the capital and doesn't come forward, then this matter is eighty percent certain."

"Okay," Shang Ping said with a glint in his eyes, "I'll find a way to let her stay a little longer." ”

Shang Mingjie tensed his face and wanted to open the window to enter, but his hand stretched out and retracted, he bit his lip and got up to leave, careful not to make a sound.

Xi Yan was anxiously looking at the wind, and when he saw the second master coming out, he hurriedly greeted him and asked in a low voice, "Second master, what's wrong with you?" ”

Shang Mingjie's face was ugly and a little unusual.

He felt a little uncomfortable, shook his head and said, "It's okay, call Shi Mo, let's go back." ”

In the house, the conversation between the two was not over, and the middle-aged man handed a list to Shang Ping, "This is this year's list." ”

Shang Ping unfolded it and frowned slightly, "So many?" And it's too urgent, isn't it? ”

"There's no way, it's already snowing on the grassland, and it's still too cold, they have to be in a hurry, and we want to finish it quickly, so as not to run into heavy snow and close the mountains and make it difficult to get out."

Shang Ping was puzzled: "This thing is a bit much, I can't make up so much for a while." ”

The middle-aged man pursed his lips and said, "Uncle, didn't you forget that part of Jiangnan?" Wait for that share of the income to arrive, and you're afraid that you won't have any money? ”

Shang Ping's heart moved, "But far water can't quench your thirst." ”

"You can borrow it from the money bank first, and then pay it back when the money arrives." In short, the caravan's affairs can't be delayed, not only is it urgent over there, because of the matter of Dachu, the border has been under martial law recently, and it is also a little difficult for them to enter and exit.

Shang Ping hesitated for a moment, and was finally persuaded, accepted the order and said: "I tried my best to come, but recently, the envoys of Great Chu are here, and the capital is heavily guarded, so I may not be able to prepare it on time." ”

"As long as it's about the same, the small back makes people hurry up and try not to miss the time."

Shang Ping nodded, and asked the middle-aged man to go out, and when he saw Changping staying, he asked, "What about the second master?" ”

"The second master went back to the house to rest."...

Shang Ping nodded, and continued to feel distressed on the bed with satisfaction.

Shang Mingjie, who returned to the house, couldn't sleep, if he didn't know who they were talking about at first, could he still not know after his father named Patriarch Lin?

But why is that?

The mother was unfriendly to the Lin family because of what she thought was a feud, but what about the father?

For the sake of the family?

But if a gentleman does something and doesn't do anything, if they all focus on interests, what is the difference between people and animals?

If they all put their interests first, how can the relationship between in-laws and world friends be counted, and why do you spend so much time and energy to operate?

Shang Ping didn't know that his son listened to half the audience, so he didn't restrict him from running out, he had already finished the exam, and he was so filial, of course Shang Ping would not continue to lock him up, so he let him out.

Shang Mingjie also lived up to his decision, and ran out of the door early the next morning, so that Shang Ping wanted to ask him how he did in the exam, but it was too late.

He shook his head helplessly, and didn't ask him what he was running for, Zuo just went to find Lu Yu and them, where else could he go?

Shang Ping still has a lot of things to deal with, so he doesn't have to go to the government today, but he also went out.

Shang Mingjie went directly to the county lord's mansion, and it was difficult to choose between the pit father or the pit Lin aunt, but it was a good choice morally.

Shang Mingjie sat in the flower hall of the county lord's mansion and said to Lin Qingwan, who was looking at her curiously, "Aunt Lin, I have something I want to say to you alone. ”

Lin Qingwan glanced at Bai Feng, and Bai Feng immediately took the person out.

Shang Mingjie sighed and said, "Auntie, go back quickly after attending the Mid-Autumn Palace banquet." ”

Lin Qingwan raised her eyebrows, "Why?" ”

He pursed his lips and said, "After all, my aunt is one of the leaders of the Lin family, and my nephew thinks that you have been away from the clan for too long, and some people with ulterior motives are only afraid that they will attack the Lin family." ”

People with ulterior motives, is it the Zhao family, the Shang family, or both?

Lin Qingwan smiled slightly, took a sip of tea and asked, "Did you come to tell me the exact news on purpose, or did you remind me of your own thoughts?" ”

Shang Mingjie lowered his eyes and said, "My nephew has received some news. ”

He didn't say how he received it, Lin Qingwan didn't ask, nodded and said, "Thank you for informing me, Lin You is on the side of the guest house, you go and play with them." ”

Aunt Lin didn't ask, Shang Mingjie breathed a sigh of relief, got up and retreated.

Lin Qingwan watched him leave, and then instructed Bai Feng, "Invite Yi Han." ”

"Go check the Shang Mansion, from yesterday afternoon to this morning, who in the Shang family came to the door to find out his whereabouts." Lin Qingwan thought for a while and then advised: "Let people keep an eye on Shang Ping and see what he has done recently." ”

Lin Qingwan sneered, she was not afraid of the Shang and Zhao families now, she was afraid that they would not do it, so that she would leave the troubles to Lin Yubin.

Shang Mingjie, who was a father of strength, arrived at the guest house, was hugged by Lu Rui and Lu Li, and asked, "Tell me quickly, how did you do in the exam?" ”

Shang Mingjie thought for a while and said: "It's okay, anyway, I answered it all, and I also felt that I answered it okay, so I don't know what the examiners think." ”

Lu Rui and Lu Li wailed, almost dragging Shang Mingjie to the ground

Lu Yu and Lin You hurriedly rescued the people, and said to Shang Mingjie, who was confused: "These two people will answer us early in the morning, and they will howl here after they are done, you don't pay attention to them." ”

Shang Mingjie looked left and right and asked, "What about Zhou Tong?" ”

Lu Rui sighed, "He was even more miserable, he soiled the volume when he was about to hand in the volume, and finally re-copied it, and he came out without copying it at all, and he lay down as soon as he came back yesterday, and no one paid attention to it, Aunt Lin invited him to a doctor, and he is now taking medicine." ”

Shang Mingjie was a little worried.

Lu Yu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, just let him be quiet, we may not be successful, as Aunt Lin said, we are still young, and we have opportunities and time." ”

Shang Mingjie nodded slightly.

The five of them got together and checked the test paper again, Lu Yu and Lin You were a little surprised when they saw the paper made by Shang Mingjie, he had made too much progress.

Lu Rui and Lu Li wailed even more, hugged him and said, "I knew that we were also in retreat and studying at that time, so we really shouldn't be so lax." ”

Although Shang Ping is ruthless, this effect is too good, right?

Shang Mingjie scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled, and said, "It's also my luck, I've seen these test centers before the test." ”

"We've seen it too," they both shouted louder, "but we don't remember!" ”

The Great Liang Imperial Examination has only been held for a few sessions, so there are a lot of exam questions, and there is no need to worry about being heavy, in this case, plus the imperial court intends to admit more Jinshi, so this year's exam questions are simple.

The questions are not biased, at least the vast majority of candidates must have seen it, but the amount of knowledge involved is very large, and whether you can answer it all depends on everyone's accumulation and ability.

Lu Rui and Lu Li obviously didn't answer all the answers, and even answered unsatisfactorily, which is why they were so sad.

But they are just screaming, and although they are disappointed, they can still hold on.

Zhou Tong was a little unable to think about it, especially after seeing Shang Mingjie's answer sheet, he was even more depressed, even if he copied it all, his answer was not as good as Shang Mingjie's answer sheet, but before in the academy, his grades were above Shang Mingjie.
