In the early morning, a ray of sunlight pierced through the thin mist, and I saw many figures scurrying in the mist, all of them looking a little nervous, as if waiting for something.

With a crisp bell ringing, the red lacquered iron door in front of everyone slowly opened, revealing the scene inside.

It is a desk with pen, ink, paper and inkstone neatly arranged.

"Candidates enter, exams begin!"

Everyone rushed in, and quickly sat down in their seats, eager to pick up the pen and start answering.

Around the examination room, there were two rows of eunuchs, and directly above them was a dragon chair, but there was no one.

Sitting at the bottom left of the dragon chair is the current prime minister, who is the chief examiner of this palace examination.

There is a transparent barrier around the test, which blocks out the sound, gives the test taker a quiet environment, and the test taker cannot see anyone around him.

Above the barrier, there is a ball floating, producing a faint light to shine, so that you can detect whether the candidate is cheating at any time.

However, the candidates who can enter the final hall exam are all real materials, so there is no possibility of cheating.

With the passage of time, the questions on the exam paper have become more difficult, and many candidates are already sweating profusely.

"Prime Minister Cao Cheng, you see, that candidate's name is Du Yi, and he is this year's top pick. Someone around said to the prime minister.

Prime Minister Cao Cheng nodded and said, "Well, it's really good that you can still answer questions like fluent." ”

"Hmph, I read Jiang Shu well, although the progress is slower, but the exam is more accurate. A famous eunuch snorted.

Cao Cheng went to the prestige and smiled silently.

It was Jiang Wenwen, a bachelor of the dynasty, who spoke, and Jiang Shu was his son.

"Bachelor Jiang, you are not ashamed, there are so many champions this year, why do you praise your son?" At this time, a tall military general stood up and said.

Jiang Wenwen said in disgust, "Go, what are you doing here as a martial artist? ”

The military general was not angry when he heard this, and his eyes were fixed on the examination room.

The exams continued, but the discussions among the surrounding officials never stopped.

They were discussing a few top candidates, and they were calculating how to make friends with those people, in case they found the right champion, wouldn't it be a big help?

With the sunset, another bell rang.

"The exam is over, the candidate is leaving!"

Doctor Du nodded with satisfaction, wrote the final period, put down the pen and ink, and got up to leave.

Come to a hotel called Champion Pavilion!

The Zhuangyuan Pavilion is located in the prosperous area of the imperial city, and a single tile and brick is more expensive than the entire net worth of Du Yi.

The champion hall is dedicated to entertaining the candidates who are popular candidates for winning the championship, and Du Yi is one of them.

"Yo, Du Zhuangyuan is back! Come on, Du Zhuangyuan, slow down. A servant ran out and warmly welcomed Dr. Du.

"You haven't skimmed the eight characters yet, you kid is really..."Doctor Du scolded the little guy with a smile, and he didn't know what to say. “

The little guy smiled and said, "Don't say that, Du Zhuangyuan, I have been in the Champion Pavilion for more than ten years, and I have seen so many people, so Du Zhuangyuan is the most knowledgeable, and this year's champion Lang must be you." ”

"That's what you say to everyone! Forget it, after a day of exams, I'm already hungry, rice, steamed buns, come as usual. ”

"Okay, I'll get you ready right away. ”

Dr. Du sat on the dining table on the edge and poured himself a cup of tea, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

This year's champion is really promising!

Isn't it just to get high in the future? If you really get in, it will be a step to the sky.

Thinking of this, Doctor Du couldn't help but chuckle.

"Who is this? What kind of nerves are there? Why is there a beggar in the Champion Pavilion?" a sharp voice came into Doctor Du's ears.

Doctor Du has been in the imperial city for some time, so he naturally knows that person.

"Second princess, I'm not a beggar, my name is Doctor Du, we met in the previous Lantern Festival. Doctor Du bowed slightly as a sign of respect.

The second princess is named Qin Long, who is the pearl of the emperor's palm today, and is also the first beauty of the Qin country.

The eyes are like pearls, the body is like a willow, the teeth are strong, and the buttocks are plump.

It is rumored that on the day of the second princess's eighteenth birthday, even the gods in the sky came down to celebrate her and were amazed.

This adds a sense of mystery to the appearance of the second princess.

"Lantern Festival?hmph, the full moon lantern festival of Qin State is a gathering of humanistic talents, ..... you?" The eyes of the second princess were full of disdain and doubt.

Although the second princess was beautiful, Du Yi still felt angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it.

It happened that the little maid came up with a bowl of rice and steamed buns, and the second princess's eyes swept over the little maid's hand and let out a chuckle.

"Second princess, you are here, please!" The little girl put down the dishes and chopsticks and greeted the second princess.

At this time, the second princess pointed at Du Yi and said, "Wait, who is this person?

Xiao Wu is a shrewd person, and immediately guessed the reason, and said respectfully, "His name is Du Yi, and he is one of the top candidates this year." ”

Doctor Du shook his clothes, and his face showed a hint of confidence and pride.

Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter from outside, "This year's champion is none other than me, just you, go home and farm!"

Then Jiang Shu, the boy in white, stepped over, and his words were not arrogant.

Jiang Shu hugged his fist at the second princess and said, "Jiang Shu, see the second princess." ”

The second princess smiled and nodded, then turned her head and walked upstairs.

Jiang Shu's obsessive eyes did not move away from the second princess for a long time, and the group of people below also looked at the back of the second princess with Hadazi.

On the contrary, Du Yi fell into anger and humiliation, and turned around and left.

"Wait, who let you go? The second princess didn't care about you, I'm not... Get the hell out of here. Jiang Shu turned his head and said angrily to Doctor Du.

Doctor Du stopped and said angrily, "You.... It's too much of a deception!"

Jiang Shu laughed, patted Du Yi on the shoulder with a folding fan in his hand, and said unscrupulously, "I'm just deceiving people too much, what can you do with me?" Don't say that you are not the champion, even if you are, what can you do with me?"

Doctor Du gritted his teeth with hatred, a few days ago, he showed no mountains and waters, and no one troubled him, and after the last palace test, countless people began to pay attention to him, and this Jiang Shu was one of them.

It just so happens that Jiang Shu is one of the several great gentlemen in the imperial city, not to mention Du Yi, even ordinary officials have to accompany him with a smile.

At this time, the little guy ran over and whispered, "Doctor Du, a man can bend and stretch, and patience will pass." ”

"Boy, don't talk too much, the people in the Champion Pavilion are too unnerving!" Jiang Shu looked at the little guy with cold eyes.

The little guy lowered his head in fear and stopped talking.

Jiang Shu didn't spare people, slapped it out, and the little guy screamed and fell to the ground, crushing the tables and chairs.

Du Yi was in a cold sweat, and he didn't see the palm at all just now, so he felt that a gust of wind was blowing, and the little guy next to him fell to the ground.

I didn't expect Jiang Shu, who is also a reader, to have such a ability.

"Master Jiang, I'm not somewhere else, it doesn't matter if someone breaks it, but the tables and chairs are very expensive. ”

A handsome young man stood on the stairs, looking coldly at Jiang Shu below.

Jiang Shu's face changed, and he looked up and changed to a smiling expression.

"It turned out to be Boss Zhang, I'm sorry, I'm a little angry today, this small two thousand silver is an apology. ”

Two palm-sized silver tickets were placed on the table.

"Little worm, don't make amends to Jiang Gongzi yet. Boss Zhang looked at his men.

The little guy knelt on the ground, hugged his fists and said, "I'm sorry, Jiang Gongzi." ”

"Well, put away Jiang Gongzi's apology, two thousand silver is not a small amount. Boss Zhang turned around and walked upstairs, and said, "Jiang Gongzi, the bottom is not suitable for you, come upstairs and have a look." ”

Jiang Shu gritted his teeth after hearing this, walked to Doctor Du and said, "You are lucky today, I knew that the palm should have hit you, thank you for that subordinate, hum!"

Then he stepped upstairs, and the little servant got up from the ground, rubbed his chest, and carried the two bills on the table into his arms.

"Thank you for helping me out, are you okay?" Doctor Du asked.

"Hey, it's a trifle. The little guy patted his chest and said with a smile, "Take a slap, the income of two thousand silver, no matter how you think about it, you can earn it." ”

Seeing the happy and painful expression of the little girl, Dr. Du couldn't cry or laugh.

In order to repay this kindness, Doctor Du pulled the little servant to the back of the Champion Pavilion and said, "I know a little medical skills, you take off your clothes and show me." ”

The little guy took off his shirt suspiciously, and said, "You usually read medical books, but don't treat me blindly." ”

"Ancestral craftsmanship, rest assured. Then Doctor Du gasped, and the black bloody palm was printed on the little guy's chest, and it was very swollen, if he didn't seek medical attention in time, the little guy might die immediately.

Doctor Du took out three silver needles from his body, inserted them on both sides of the little girl's chest, and then raised his left hand to knead and massage on the blood mark.

The little guy gritted his teeth and almost scolded.

But in less than three or four seconds, the little guy felt nauseous, and opened his mouth to spit out a large cloud of black blood.

The palm print on his chest also disappeared, and the little guy was much more relaxed.

"Hey, it really works, Doctor Du, you're so good, I feel like I'm okay now. The little guy jumped on the spot a few times and said incredulously.

Doctor Du shook his left hand, put away the three silver needles, and said, "The blood is cleared, but I still need to go to the medical hall to have a look and buy some supplements to come back." ”

"Don't worry, you didn't eat just now, Doctor Du, let's go, I'll invite you to eat." "The guy was very welcoming.

Doctor Du waved his hand and refused the invitation of the little servant.

"You're welcome, when you get admitted to the top prize in the future, I still want to touch your joy. ”

Du Yi frowned, pulled the little guy to his side and asked in a low voice, "Why are you so sure that I will be admitted, that Jiang Shu is the son of Jiang Dashangshu, and the relationship is very hard." ”

The little guy looked at no one around and replied, "It's my boss, he looks at people very accurately, he is optimistic about you." ”

"Your boss, is it the young man just now.....?"

"Shhhhhh The little guy hurriedly grabbed Doctor Du, "Boss, he is not an ordinary person, he can hear us." ”

Doctor Du looked around, but there was no one around, revealing a puzzled look.

The servant nodded, and then walked out of the courtyard.

"Little worm, the guests are here, go clean up. "It's the young boss.

"Well... Okay, boss. The little guy hurriedly got dressed and ran out of the yard.

Boss Zhang glanced at Doctor Du twice, turned around and left.

"Could it be the legend... Stranger?" Doctor Du said secretly in his heart, his eyes were full of surprise and confusion for a long time.
