"Guest officer, is there really no room left?" The innkeeper said apologetically.

"There's not even a room in such a big inn?" Tao Yaoyao asked.

"Guest, you don't know anything. The emperor has a decree, today is the first day of the examination, the students have gone to various places to pass the examination, this time, there are many more people than before, we are a small place, there are few inns, and there is no room for a long time. ”

Since he took Luo Changshan and his people that day, Qing Yezhuo had people escorted into Beijing overnight, and Qing Siyi also wanted to join in the fun, so he and Situ Zhao followed them back to Xiaocheng from the small road. Nominally, it is to protect the emperor and Niangniang, but in fact, he doesn't want to go back so early, or there are some ideas that others don't know.

"Master, there's no inn over there." Guifu came running at this time, gasping and said.

"When will this test start?" Nightburn asked.

"Tomorrow, in the courtyard by the yamen." The shopkeeper replied skillfully.

"What do you want to do?" Tao Yao was puzzled, there were no towns and counties nearby, and the sun was almost setting. Isn't it time to find a place to live, because if you don't find them again, you'll end up on the streets.

"There is a place to live." Qing Yezhuo said and took the lead and walked out.

"You don't want to-" Tao Yaoyao didn't react for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she looked surprised.

"What do you think?" Situ Zhao asked coldly.

"You'll know if you keep up." Tao Yaoyao also sold the lawsuit.

"What are you doing here?" Situ Zhao looked at the dozens of people surrounding the door in front of him and couldn't help asking.

"The imperial court has official documents, as long as it is a student who has entered the examination, those who have nowhere to live have a residence arranged by the imperial court." Qing Siyi kindly explained.

"Isn't it possible to make a mistake in such a hurry this time?" Situ Zhao asked casually, this is also what Tao Yaoyao wanted to ask, she just looked at Qing Yezhuo and didn't speak.

"Do you think everyone is the same as you, the imperial brother has been planning for a long time, and it has been arranged a long time ago, just a suitable time is missing. Just take advantage of this incident to announce, so as not to disagree with those old ministers in the court. Qing Siyi shook his head and looked at her, thinking that this girl was a scheming woman, but she didn't expect to have such a retarded side.

In fact, he misunderstood Situ Zhao, she originally lived in Situ's house in an embarrassing identity, if she didn't have some thoughts, she was afraid that she would have been gnawed to the point that there were no bones left, and now that she came to Beigao, these things that have nothing to do with herself, she naturally doesn't want to drive that brain.

"Let's go sign up for the three of us." Tao Yaoyao saw that the expressions of the two of them were also helpless, so she had to interject.

"Why not me!" Situ Zhao shouted.

"You, just dance the knife and make the sword, don't take these out and lose the face of the Situ family." Qing Siyi couldn't help but sarcastically.

"You!" Situ Zhao really wanted to pour him with a cup of tequila, so that he would go against him if he was fine.

"Miss Situ is regarded as Siyi's maidservant, and the residence for this recruitment can bring a scholar maid." Qing Yezhuo said.

"Let's go." Situ Zhao pursed his lips, and he had to bow his head on the eaves.

"Hello, the three of us are going to sign up for the exam." Tao Yaoyao squeezed forward and said.

"It's too late to sign up now, so I won't accept it." The man said without even raising his head.

"The imperial court does not stipulate that you are not allowed to register before the exam." Tao Yaoyao asked rhetorically.

"If I say I don't take it, I won't accept it." The man didn't bother to talk to her, and was about to get up and leave.

"Hmph, the Holy Kaike is obviously to recruit talents, if people know that you slander his holy will like this, I'm afraid they will cut your tongue and cut off your hands and feet!" Tao Yaoyao gestured viciously.

"You—" The man turned around and saw that it was a thin boy, and he was upset.

"What's wrong?" A young man in an official uniform walked out.

"My lord, these people are pretending to be students, and they want to cheat and eat and drink here, and they have seen a lot in the past few days, and they can't leave if they are driven away!" When he saw the man, he immediately bent down and replied.

"Oh? Ladies and gentlemen, are you here to take part in the exam? The young magistrate asked.

"If you go back to your words, that's right." Tao Xiaoyao replied.

"These days, there are too many people pretending to take the exam in order to cheat and eat and drink, don't mind. But this person's attitude, Langsheng is here to make amends. I wonder if the three sons may touch a pair? The man was so respectful and courteous that he didn't put on a show.

"Say it." Tao Yaoyao thought about it and it made sense, as soon as this policy came out, although it was only for a while, it was inevitable that those who cheated and cheated her, she could completely accept this method, Qing Yezhuo and Qing Siyi also nodded.

"Mountains and rivers are bright and beautiful everywhere." The county magistrate named Langsheng said.

"Ups and downs, always chic." Let's talk about Qing Siyi first, I really didn't expect that Qing Siyi, a person who doesn't understand literature, can have such a pair. It has to be said that this pair fully stated the drunken pain of the battlefield soldiers.

Situ Zhao didn't expect him to be able to deal so quickly, could it be that the two people on the side cheated on him? No, the two of them haven't spoken yet.

"Dreams are far away, and they often look forward to it." Tao Yaoyao said softly, thoughtfully.

"Flowers, flowers, leaves, leaves, and twilight every year." Qing Yezhuo was the last to say, but he just said it to this peach.

"The three sons are really talented and learned, and I will apologize to you below, three of you, please." Langsheng waved his hand in greeting.

"I can't see that this Langsheng is such a generous person." Tao Yaoyao said.

"Isn't it a county order to have grace?" Situ Zhao immediately retorted.

With this sentence, several people fell silent, yes, what the first emperor left behind is not only a country, but also a country that needs to change everywhere, if it is so unchanging by those people, I am afraid that this Beigao will be eaten sooner or later, no wonder Seamus is eyeing it, if there is corruption within this huge empire, then even if no one steals it, it will fall apart.

Tao Yaoyao and Biyu lived together, Qing Yezhuo and Guifu, Situ Zhao was naturally with Qing Siyi.

"What are you going to do?" Situ Zhao looked at him like a defensive wolf.

"What do you say this king is going to do?" On weekdays, the majestic Qing Siyi will also tease her.

"Hmph, you'd better not think about it. In any case, I am also the person sent to Beigao by the Situ family. Situ Zhao pretended to be calm and sat down.

"Don't worry, like you, this king is not interested." Qing Siyi glanced at her whole body.

Situ Zhao felt such a gaze and glanced back uncomfortably.

"The king has already told the royal brother about you." Qing Siyi also sat down.

"How can you talk about other people's things casually!" Situ Zhao was a little at a loss, as if the mask that had been erected for a long time had been removed, exposing her directly to people's eyes.

"If it weren't for your pure nature, would you still think you would be able to sit here today?" Qing Siyi took a sip of tea.

"What do you mean?" Situ Zhao was puzzled.

"Do you know where that iron-hoofed horse came from?" Qing Siyi waited for a while, and seemed to feel that the tea still had some soup, so he blew it.

"Huh? Mo is not really from Xi Mo-" The answer that Situ Zhao didn't want to believe appeared in her heart, if this was the case, her situation would be very precarious.

"Of course, this iron-hoofed horse is only available to Seamus, and if it's not Seamus, it can't still jump out of the soil." Qing Siyi smiled.

"Hurry up, why did this horse appear inexplicably?" Situ Zhao was a little anxious.

"Think about it, this horse appeared out of thin air, leaving so much evidence, is it pushing the water to the forefront?" Qing Siyi did not answer directly, believing that with her intelligence, she would be able to guess soon.

"Situ Bai!" Situ Zhao really thought of someone, gritted his teeth and said a name.

"He advocated sending you to the palace, and at the same time sent someone to contact Luo Changshan, who was about to fall, and said that he would give him a good horse, and Luo Changshan was in urgent need of silver taels at the moment, and because of Luo Yinxiao's matter, he lost his status in Xiaocheng, so he came up with this method." Qing Siyi said.

"But Luo Changshan knew that he was from Beigao, and he-" Situ Zhao was puzzled.

"Are you still taking risks? Hehe, the disaster relief was exposed, the Salt Gang was not successful, his status was even threatened, Luo Xin was left out in the palace again, he had to be the leader of this traditional nobleman to keep himself and keep the Luo family, which required silver, and he had to take risks. But—" Just-in-thee paused.

"Are you saying he's the man behind the disaster relief and corruption, the big brother of the Salt Gang?" Situ Zhao asked, also surprised.

"Don't you wonder why there is so much evidence left on this matter?" Qing Siyi seemed reluctant to answer the question directly, and asked openly.

"Huh?" Situ Zhao raised her eyebrows, in fact, she already knew it in her heart.

"In order to let you die without a place to be buried, Situ Bai naturally wants to splash dirty water on you." Qing Siyi said.

"Hmph, when I go back to Situ's house, I'll tell my grandfather and let him-" Situ Zhao said coldly, as if he had returned to that indifferent person.

"How about him? If you return, you will be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and you will be in his arms. At this moment, the Situ family is already Situ Bai's final say, and the winner has been decided. Your grandfather was old, completely old. Qing Siyi said this, the scene was a little sad, and he also admired it in his heart, what kind of mind the old man of the Situ family was to retreat to the second line under the war, and then what kind of courage he had in the rivers and lakes to have his current status. What a pity!

"This, this can't be!" Situ Zhao shook his head and bit his lip.

"Don't fool yourself, in fact, you know very well in your heart, otherwise why would someone like you come to this strange realm willingly." Qing Siyi looked at the woman in front of him, and then he felt that she was carrying something on her shoulders, how did this thin shoulder survive in such a Longtan tiger's den, and he even had some sympathy.

"No wonder Situ Bai kindly let people teach me so many court etiquette, no wonder I wanted to take the opportunity to kill Tao Yao'er, no wonder I brought so many diluted treasures. Hahaha! It turned out that the Situ family was about to abandon me at that time, and they wanted me to be the smoke of this war and make my death an excuse. If I really kill Tao Yao'er and fall under the charge of being a spy, I'm afraid I won't be able to live if I don't die. As long as I die, Seamus's ambition will step into Beigao. What a good calculation! Situ Zhao sobbed.

"Have you ever thought about killing her?" Qing Siyi looked at her appearance at the moment and asked.

"Thought!" Situ Zhao said after being silent with red eyes.

"But I gave up, I wanted to drugged that jug. But I gave up, such a woman will sink for any man in the world! And I, Situ Zhao, will never harm people's names in vain in order to achieve their goals, wouldn't that be the same as those people, and be embarrassed! Situ Zhao swore to the sky, angry.

"Well said!" Tao Yao pushed the door in, followed by Qing Yezhuo.

"You-" Situ Zhao was shocked and forgot to kneel.

"I'll just say why I get dizzy when I drink that thing—" Tao Xiaoxiao remembered the pot of agave.

“…… You drink dizzy because you have a poor amount of alcohol, agave is made of cactus, too much will cause people to hallucinate, kill people invisibly, the weight of your pot ......" Situ Zhao and Tao Yao suddenly looked at each other and smiled, as if something in his heart had been dissolved.

"Situ Zhao, I remember that you are pure and good-natured, Situ Bai has conspired with An Yanglie at this moment, and the Situ family at this time is no longer the original, are you willing to stop being Situ Bai's eagle dog from now on and live in Beigao?" Qing Yezhuo asked, not that he didn't want to believe her, but that nothing could be absolute.

"I have a request." Situ Zhao wiped his tears and said in shock.

"It's worthy of being a woman from the Situ family, you can say it." Qing Yezhuo said.

"I want to see my grandfather, I want to know if he's okay."
