Although Lin Ruo's appearance is first-class, in Xiao He's opinion, the outside world still has a bit of a reputation for Lin Ruo's appearance.

He knew that Lin Ruo's identity was not ordinary, he was the granddaughter of the imperial master and the granddaughter of His Majesty today.

This is a girl with an extremely deep background.

Lin Ruo came to look for Chen Yueru, but it was just to meet her master through Chen Yueru.

This made Chen Yueru a little embarrassed, her master Shenlong couldn't see the end, and even she might not be able to contact him.

However, this master has always had a habit that when the world is coming, he will definitely come to Yunjing.

But this can't solve Lin Ruo's urgent need......

Lin Ruoke wanted to learn the exercises from Chen Yueru's master, if he waited until the time of the Great World Competition, wouldn't it be too late?

The meeting gift she brought to Chen Yueru was not the baked cakes bought at the gate of the city, but the foundation of Yongzhou Mansion's specialty.

I heard that this Chen Yueru valued her appearance and her very much, so Lin Ruo brought a more expensive foundation.

However, the gift was sent, but no benefits were reaped, which made Lin Ruo feel a little helpless.

"Actually, you don't necessarily have to look for a master, you can consider going to the Scripture Pavilion to try your luck. ”

"Since the exercises you are practicing now are not very suitable for you, you can go to the Hidden Scripture Pavilion to find the exercises that are really suitable for you. ”

"Anyway, the castle tower has recently been restructured, you go and ask the two scholars of the castle tower, can you be accommodating, go to the forbidden book layer to see the exercises or something. ”

That's a bit of a fantasy......

Chen Yueru actually suggested that Lin Ruo go to the forbidden book layer to find exercises, this is an opportunity that only a university scholar can have, how could she Lin Ruo have the opportunity to enter the forbidden book layer of the Heavenly Castle Pavilion?

"Actually, it's not that there is no way, wasn't it the reward of the Great Kui Star Picking was to enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion?"

Xiao He said that Yang Ming won the crown in the end.

"You came to Yunjing this time to naturally enter Beijing to take the exam, if you can really get a good ranking, you should be able to enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. ”

"After all, in the year of the imperial examination, if you really get a ranking in the palace examination, it shouldn't be difficult to enter the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. ”

Lin Ruo pondered what Xiao He said, indeed, if she could get the ranking in the palace examination, the chance of entering the Hidden Scripture Pavilion would naturally be greater.

But...... The imperial examination will not be held until June, so will he have to study in Yunjing in the past few months?

Although this Uncle Lu went to sea directly, and now she has not returned, she is powerless to investigate the affairs of the King of Chu along the East by herself.

If you really spend these few months studying to gain fame, it is not impossible.

"Actually, there is another way to block the master. ”

Chen Yueru said, Lin Ruo listened attentively.

"Shizun seems to like the dishes of Zuo Gongquan in the Yongzhou Mansion of Beiqian, if you squat at Zuo Gong's place, you should be able to squat at Shizun to eat there. ”

This......

Lin Ruoke had just come from Yongzhou Mansion, and if he was allowed to return to Yongzhou Mansion, it would be a bit of a toss.

Moreover, if he really prepared for the imperial examination, Lin Ruo had better live in Yunjing from now on.

"I think it's more reliable to prepare for the imperial examination. ”

"I think so too, Sister Lin, we talked quite well, and I suddenly decided. ”

Chen Yueru directly took Lin Ruo's hand and said:

"I decided not to travel anymore and stayed in Yunjing to accompany Sister Lin to take the imperial examination. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao He suddenly felt very embarrassed.

If Chen Yue remembered that he would come out, he would be a one! Just now he said that he wanted to travel all over the world to accumulate knowledge, and now he actually wants to stay in Yunjing to accompany Lin Ruo to take the imperial examination.

This woman's heart is really like a needle under the sea, and she can't figure it out!

How did Xiao He know that she was so fickle, and thought that she could enjoy two more days of pure life in Yunjing.

This looking forward to the stars and the moon finally looked forward to Chen Yueru being about to go out to travel, but since this Lin Ruo, Chen Yueru did not leave directly!

This really caught Xiao He off guard.

"Xiao He, what do you mean by that expression, are you distressed when I am in Yunjing?"

"I didn't...... Besides, do you think I dare to be distressed?"

"It's pretty much the same, then that's it, from today onwards, you will be my sister Lin's companion reading boy. ”

"Until we finish the imperial examination, you have to fulfill your duties and accompany us to read well!"

This, Xiao He suddenly felt a big head.

Reading with Chen Yueru is not a mental work, but an individual work!

This eldest lady remembered that as soon as she came out, the position and time of reading the book were completely unfixed.

Maybe in the tavern, you suddenly want to read a book, you have to carry the book for him, and you have to expel the other people in the tavern.

Maybe you want to read a book in the middle of the night when you can't sleep, then you have to get up and accompany you honestly!

When Miss Chen was studying back then, she survived more than a dozen scholars, and she actually wanted to harm Xiao He again!

"How about it, Xiao He, can you be my companion reading boy. ”

"Hmph, I'm afraid you'll die of beauty!"

After Xiao He finished speaking, he waved his hand directly at Chen Yueru, which made Xiao He a scholar sent by her, and there was no door!

"That'...... In this way, how about we take the imperial examination together?"

Seeing that there was no way to pull Xiao He on the thief ship, Chen Yueru had another plan.

This made Xiao He feel very embarrassed, but he had no interest in the imperial examination at all.

What's the matter with this Chen Yueru, why do you have to drag him on this thief ship?

Could it be that she feels lonely by herself?

No, this woman has been single for so many years, and she doesn't feel lonely.

Could it be that his temperament changed greatly after Xiao He accompanied her for a few meals?

That's strange enough.

"I don't care, in short, I take the exam with Sister Lin, you have to accompany me!"

Seeing Xiao He, who was still hesitant, Chen Yueru directly launched a brutal offensive, no matter what, this girl just wants you Xiao He to accompany you to read, if you are not happy, I will stay here with you and not leave.

Lin Ruo looked at the living treasures of these two people, and actually felt like the kind of conversation between Yang Ming and Hu Yue.

Speaking of which, I don't know when Yang Ming and Hu Yue will come back.

This is the tenth day of February, it is Hu Yue's birthday, and she may be very unhappy if she didn't celebrate this little girl's birthday this year.

I can only make up for her later.

"Okay, okay, I lost to you, let's take the exam together. ”

"Hehe, our strongest trio will definitely be able to win the top three in the palace exam!"

Chen Yueru's confidence really doesn't come from.

Although it is true that several of them are extremely intelligent, this palace test has gathered the most powerful scholars in the Cloud Empire.

This top three position, it is already a great thing that one of the three of them can reach it.

The three of them are the top three, do you really think that the readers of this cloud empire are idiots?

......

In the face of the upcoming imperial examination, Yongzhou Mansion also has a very huge sensation.

The township examination in Yongzhou is about to begin, and those who have good results in the township examination will go to Yunjing for qualification examination, and then take the hall examination in Yunjing.

The township examination in Yongzhou Mansion is mainly for those who are not currently qualified for the hall examination, and the descendants of a scholarly family like Lin Ruo have the qualifications to directly participate in the hall examination.

The township test is mainly for the common people and the children of emerging families.

This class for the children of the family who has passed the township test is equivalent to a fish leaping into the dragon gate, and the whole family can become a scholarly family.

In this way, if their future descendants participate in the imperial examination, they will also have the qualification to directly participate in the Yunjing Hall Examination!

Today's township test was presided over by Lin Feng Taishou and Mr. Jiang Gandao.

After all, this Lin Xiao didn't like to join in the excitement, so he directly recommended Mr. Jiang Gandao, who was a bookkeeper in Songhe Tower.

This Mr. Jiang's knowledge is very profound, and the exam questions he gives are very representative.

At this time, in Yongzhou Mansion, the three princes went to the Western Desert to take over the management of the Hidden Dragon Society in the Western Desert, and by the way, they said hello to the general of the Western Desert.

After all, if he wants to receive the Hidden Dragon Society, he still needs to greet the high-level brother of Zhongzhou Mu.

Although the Qianlong Society, as the dark organization of Zhongzhou Mu, has always been in a relatively loose state, this organization really plays a very important role in the shadows of some cities.

Everything has two sides, light and shadow, and the more light there is, the richer the shadow.

The Hidden Dragon Society is the giant shadow beneath the soaring dragon.

Liu Ruyu re-developed the six ears, and after the three princes left, it was natural to make the hidden dragon meeting of Yongzhou Mansion clear, and this Yongzhou Mansion is now very clean.

However, if it develops smoothly, it still needs more funds, and he has to run it well.

During the period of studying with Zuo Gong, Shopkeeper Liu learned some businessmen's ways, and also wanted to apply these newly learned things to the daily management of the Qianlong Society.

In this way, the Hidden Dragon Society's funds will be more abundant, so that it can help the Three Princes do more things.

At this time, the Songhe Tower, only Zuo Gong himself was left.

Zuo Gong stood at the railing, looking in the direction of the northwest, I don't know how many years ago, he developed such a strange habit.

It may be when his son dies on the battlefield of the Horse Leather Shroud, or it may be after he no longer launches new dishes.

Anyway, this strange habit, he has maintained for a long time.

Yunjing just sent a letter that the Yuanjing Chamber of Commerce had decided to stop business, and Yuanjing Qianzhuang had already been acquired by the Imperial Qianzhuang at a low price.

For the Yuan family, this battle has come to an end.

Next, as long as the Yuan Family Chamber of Commerce in each state capital is banned, the tumor of the Yuan Family can be completely erased from the body of the empire.

In this way, it is also a good thing for thousands of generations, but it is obviously good, Zuo Gong will still stand at the railing in a daze.

I have achieved a great cause, what is there to regret?

It's a pity that Yang Ming, this kid, is no longer in the Cloud Empire at this time, if this kid is here, his old man will definitely let him come and have a drink with him.

For Yang Ming, Zuo Gong has always been a little relieved, I heard that this kid was fed the Soul Scattering Pill a few days ago, but it really made Zuo Gong anxious.

Fortunately, the Zong family predicted that Yang Ming was out of danger, and Zuo Gong could still believe the Zong family's prediction.

Otherwise, he didn't know who to believe.

"Yang Ming, this stinky boy, is really a little worried. ”

"Next time I go back to Yongzhou Mansion, I must have a good drink with him. ”

Zuo Gong muttered, and behind him, a soft voice sounded.

"Zuo Gong ......"

Hearing this voice, Zuo Gong looked back slightly and found that it was Hua Yiqing standing behind him, and in Hua Yiqing's hand was a short knife.

His face was a little defeated, and there seemed to be a mist in his big eyes.

Hua Yiqing stood about five steps away from Zuo Gong, looking at Zuo Gong quietly, he didn't say a word.

However, the presence of him here, with a short knife in his hand, was already able to explain something.

When Zuo Gong saw Hua Yiqing, his expression was originally a little surprised, followed by questions, but now, his expression became relieved.

"I did guess that the Yuan family might send someone to kill me, a bad old man. ”

"However, I didn't expect that after the Yuan family had already disarmed and surrendered, there would be such revenge on me. ”

"I didn't expect that the person I was going to face would be you. ”

"Xiaohua, you were sent by the Yuan family from the beginning, right?"

Facing Zuo Gong's question, Hua Yiqing gritted his teeth and put the short knife in his hand in front of Zuo Gong.

That's right, what Zuo Gong said is not wrong at all.

He Hua Yiqing is a little eunuch under Gonggong Yuan!

At the beginning, Gonggong Yuan came to Yongzhou Mansion in order to let him keep an eye on Lu Cheng, but he found that he couldn't keep an eye on Lu Qincha at all.

Lu Qincha's strength was too strong, and Lu Cheng's whereabouts were really a little weird, so he couldn't figure it out at all.

Therefore, without getting any news, he could only be forced to become the abandoned son of Yuan Gonggong.

When Hua Yiqing couldn't complete the task and really fell into self-doubt, he met Mr. Jiang Qiandao.

Unexpectedly, he actually learned about part of Lu Qincha's plan through Mr. Jiang Gandao.

This made him ecstatic, and he was finally able to come in handy!

Gonggong Yuan was very satisfied, forgave him for his unfavorable handling at the beginning, and instructed him to always follow Mr. Jiang Qiandao and be ready to report the situation at any time.

During her time in Yongzhou Mansion, Hua Yiqing has always worn a thick mask.

He did not dare to reveal his true emotions, nor did he dare to invest in his true feelings.

Until, Yang Ming became friends with him.

He's just a eunuch, a eunuch, is it possible that he also deserves to have such a luxury as a friend?

However, Yang Ming treated him like a real little brother.

Go crazy with him, play with him, and do a lot of things with him that he once dared not imagine.

This made Hua Yiqing have an illusion, it seems that he has really become Yang Ming's little brother and really integrated into their circle!

However, Yuan Gonggong's letters after letters made him understand the meaning of his existence again.

He exists as the eyes of Yuan Gonggong, and his job is only to monitor the movements of these people in the Yongzhou Mansion.

After Gonggong Yuan's accident, Hua Yiqing actually breathed a sigh of relief, he felt that Gonggong Yuan should not need him anymore.

He was finally able to try to fit into Zuo Gong's circle.

He doesn't have too many extravagances, he just wants to be a little handyman in the Pine Crane Tower forever.

Even if he is a miscellaneous servant of Songhe Tower, he is a hundred times stronger than becoming a henchman of Yuan Gonggong!

Because, here, they really look at Hua Yiqing as a human being.

However, a letter three days ago completely turned Hua Yiqing's illusion into a bubble.

Gonggong Yuan contacted him and asked him to find a way to kill Zuo Gong!

Killing Zuo Gong will anger the righteous people in the world, and killing Zuo Gong will make everyone point the finger at the Yuan family!

Because, only the Yuan family will do the dog jumping off the wall at this time!

The Yuan family destroyed the Yuan father-in-law, and he was going to drag the Yuan family to be buried with him!

By the way, the best sacrifice to destroy the Yuan family is a dead one, the king of Beiqian!

Hua Yiqing wanted to refuse, but Yuan Gonggong had the lives of his younger brothers and sisters in his hands!

As an elder brother, he has been in the palace since he was a child, and all his income was handed over to his grandmother intact to raise his younger siblings.

The whole purpose of his life is for his younger siblings to grow up healthily.

Hua Yiqing has always been a tool-like existence, except when he was in Songhe Tower, he found himself.

Now, he has a choice between himself and his younger siblings' lives.

He can't choose, he can't decide.

Yuan Gonggong's undoubted tone made him choose to obey the order!

But can he really do it?

"Xiaohua, you are a kind child, but you are also a hard-working child. ”

Zuo Gong shook his head and said:

"I know you're doing this for a reason, and if my death can solve your problems, you can kill me. ”

"But there's one thing you have to remember. ”

Zuo Gong suddenly said righteously:

"The Yuan family has been plotting for a long time, trying to endanger the country and the imperial court, and my Zuo Gongquan has been up and down in the business sea all his life, but I scoff at what the Yuan family did!"

"Selling one's creed for profit, the Yuan family is just a lost dog!"

Zuo Gong raised his head, and a touch of pride actually rose on his old face.

That is the pride of the warriors, he is facing as if it is 100,000 nomadic iron horsemen going south to Qianren Gorge, that immobile and courageous, so that Hua Yiqing felt shocked.

"The Yuan family will be firmly remembered, and the businessmen of the world will also be firmly remembered!"

"Business seeks benevolence and righteousness! Business is loyal! Business is for the common people!"

"The general trend of the world is not something that can be stopped by killing an old man me. ”

Xiaohua's hand was trembling, and he walked towards Zuo Gong step by step with a short knife.

He didn't want to listen to what Zuo Gong said! He didn't want to do anything righteous at all!

He's just an ordinary little eunuch, he just wants his younger siblings to live!

With tears in his eyes, he rushed to Zuo Gong.

I muttered, I'm sorry...... I'm sorry......

The blade directly pierced Zuo Gong's chest, and the quenched knife made Zuo Gong fall to the ground directly.

However, until the last moment of his life, Zuo Gong did not show any fear.

He died laughing, righteous in his heart.

Xiaohua was already teary-eyed, and on Zuo Gong's body, a little white light like fireflies suddenly rose!

Hua Yiqing remembered that when his mother was dying, she said to Hua Yiqing: People, if they die, their souls may become fireflies.

At this time, in front of Hua Yiqing's eyes, on Zuo Gong's body, many scattered points of light suddenly appeared, like a swarm of fireflies.

He chased the fireflies, climbed directly to the edge of the fence, and then leaped into the air.

Jumping down, so resolute, so poignant, like a meteor.

Before jumping down, Hua Yiqing let out a low murmur.

"Mom, I'm going to turn into a firefly. ”
