Lu Yizhi picked up the teacup and took a deep breath first.

"Nervous?" Miss Xiahou asked with a smile.

Lu Yizhi smiled and nodded: "A little." ”

Mrs. Xiahou said beside her, "Aqing, don't always mention this to him. Looking at Lu Yizhi with a smile and comforting, "Don't be nervous, it's the same as when you talk to your teacher every day." ”

Lu Yizhi nodded.

"It's different." Miss Xiahou said, "This time, my father avoided suspicion and did not participate in the evaluation, so he could only watch from the back of the palace. ”

Said with a smile.

"It's different, the teacher is partial to you, you know it in your heart, Your Majesty won't favor you."

Mrs. Xiahou was disgusted: "Ah Qing, the soldiers are going to the battlefield, what are you doing here to scare people?" He added, "If you have a little temper, it depends on the time." ”

Isn't it because of the previous dissatisfaction?

Miss Xiahou said, "How is this a scare." Looking at Lu Yizhi, "Is Yizhi scared?" ”

Lu Yizhi took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said, "I was frightened by Jin Luan's examination school, not by my senior sister's words. ”

Mrs. Xiahou and Miss Xiahou both laughed.

"Good boy, don't be afraid." Mrs. Xiahou looked at Lu Yizhi, her eyes were full of satisfaction, "Your Majesty is young, ambitious, and likes young talents, compared to your teacher to take the school examination, you don't have to be nervous, you just need to do your best." ”

Lu Yizhi saluted: "Thank you, master." ”

A maidservant girl came in outside and said with a smile: "It's time to go, the carriages and horses over there are ready." ”

Mrs. Xiahou hurriedly pushed Lu Yizhi out: "Go quickly, don't be late." ”

Miss Xiahou followed, and the Xiahou family's mansion was near Taixue, and you arrived at Taixue through the alley.

When Mrs. Xiahou took Miss Xiahou to the gate of Taixue, the hundreds of Taixue students had already boarded the carriage one by one, and then entered the imperial city.

Taixue was crowded with people and hustle and bustle.

"We're not going to see you off." Miss Xiahou said loudly and smiled again, "We will go to the Imperial City to attend your banquet the day after tomorrow." ”

After the emperor selects the students, he will hold a palace banquet, and the cultural relics and magnates will all participate in the congratulations, which is also to congratulate him on the success of the Toad Palace, Lu Yizhi smiled at Miss Xiahou, and turned around with a shallow salute and remitted it to the students.

The carriages and horses were sparkling, and they were escorted by the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the guards to the imperial city.

Mrs. Xiahou watched: "Your father said that even if you don't come out on top, you will definitely not be in the top ten." ”

Miss Xiahou smiled and said, "I don't think I can get out of the top five." ”

Mrs. Xiahou glanced at her and smiled again: "Then you can stay in the capital and be directly by Your Majesty's side." ”

In the past, if the students wanted to join the scholars, submit books everywhere, and get recommendations, most of them had to sit up from the county officials.

This is really a good time.

The right time, place and people.

After that, he blamed his daughter again.

"Wait for tomorrow I don't know how many people have missed such a good son-in-law, don't you hold on to a little thing as big as a sesame seed, isn't it just a maidservant?"

Miss Xiahou said helplessly: "How can I hold on to it, this is not the difference between Miss Handmaid, it is something he is hiding, if he is frank, why hide it?" ”

Whether the daughter is reading or reading to death, I don't understand this, I naturally care about concealing it, I'm afraid of annoying Miss, I'm afraid of ruining my family, I'm afraid of ruining my future, man, Mrs. Xiahou laughed in her heart, that's it, needless to say, she will understand after she gets married and starts a business.

"It's good to talk about it now." She said, holding her daughter's arm, "Let's go, go back and get ready for the banquet." ”

Whether it is the future, or the affairs of their children and relatives, it is already within easy reach for them, and it is not worth worrying about.

……

…….

The autumn sun shines on the front of the stargazing pavilion.

The fortifications are hot, and the sweat is hot.

"Stop, stop."

A few attendants came over with tea barrels, while greeting the craftsmen.

The craftsmen were interrupted, their movements were incomprehensible, and Liu Tongshi frowned and stepped forward: "What's wrong?" ”

In the past, tea was not immediately served.

The chief attendant said: "Today's Golden Palace selection examination, from daytime to tomorrow, in order to avoid disturbing the candidates to answer the questions, the upper command ordered the fortifications to be stopped. ”

Liu Tongshi sighed: "It's still far from the front hall, how can you hear it, our construction period is ....."

The attendants waved their hands and interrupted: "This is a big deal, if you hear it, if you disturb the students' pen and ink, wouldn't it make Your Majesty miss the pillars, Lao Liu, don't talk too much, we have to lower our voices when we speak on this day, blame the above, and ask you for the crime, you don't have to worry about the construction period." ”

Liu Tongshi was helpless, yes, it was their business that the construction period was exceeded, and they just managed to catch up with the construction period, where did they care about this.

"Got it, got it." He motioned for everyone to stop.

The attendants left, Liu Tongshi took the craftsmen to sit in the shed and drink tea boringly, and the same was true for Qixing, but there was tea next to him, and he was carving something with a file in his hand.

This child has work in his eyes at all times, Liu Tongshi nodded with satisfaction, and greeted her: "Ah Qi, don't be busy with this first, you go to the inner warehouse to check the next batch of materials, and you can't affect our construction period anymore." ”

The drawings are designed by Seven Stars, and the materials are more rigorous by her.

Qixing responded, put down the file, took the thick booklet drawings, and went to the inner library of the Ning'an Palace, and as soon as he walked out of the Star Viewing Pavilion, he saw several black-clothed guards standing outside.

"What for?" When the leader saw her, he immediately shouted.

Qixing stopped: "It's Xiu Neisi, and I'm going to Neiku." ”

The janissary over there snorted: "Where's the waist card?" ”

Qixing walked over, took off his waist card and handed it to Zhu Chuan, looking at him with a calm expression.

Zhu Chuan glanced at the thick book drawings she held steadily in one hand, snorted in his heart, took the waist card in his hand and looked at it over and over, and whispered: "Don't think I don't know what you're going to do?" ”

Seven Stars looked at him and said, "I'm going to ......."

"Do you want to go ahead and watch the students enter the temple?" Zhu Chuan raised his eyebrows to interrupt her, and lowered his voice, "Isn't this what you came to the imperial city for, your sweetheart entered the palace to become the pillar of His Majesty, and you built the Star Gazing Pavilion for the emperor, when the time comes, you will be side by side, and the person surnamed Lu will not dare to dislike you, right?" ”

Qixing sighed and asked, "Then I can still go to the inner library....."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhu Chuan waved his hand again: "The governor wants to see you." ”

Pointing in one direction.

Qixing didn't hesitate, holding the booklet and drawing and followed the direction pointed by Zhu Chuan.

Under a wisteria-wrapped pavilion outside the inner library, Huo Lian was sitting and drinking tea, and the attendants who were originally here were gone.

Hearing her footsteps, Huo Lian raised her head and looked at the woman who walked in front of her.

"What are you doing in the Imperial City?" He asked.

Qixing said: "In order to see my sweetheart enter the palace and become a pillar of His Majesty, I will build the Star Gazing Pavilion for the emperor, so we can be regarded as side by side." ”

Huo Lian's eyes scattered slightly, turned her head, and laughed, but fortunately the tea in her hand was stable and didn't spill out.

What nonsense!
