When I came to Qujiangchi to relax, I wanted to eat fish, and I told my daughter-in-law many times that her current physical condition should appropriately reduce the food of fish, meat and eggs, which will only make her more uncomfortable.

Squeeze her a few more times at night, and you can only make yourself tired.

"Master, when are we going to Lishan again?" Xiao Wu asked in a low voice.

Xu Hui on the side was also full of anticipation.

Zhang Yang threw the fish entrails into the lake, "When the imperial examination is over, after the court is busy these days, we will go to Lishan to build a new home."

"Mm-hmm, I'm going to help Master too." Xu Hui clenched her fists to cheer herself up.

It is the age when the heart is the most playful, and studying with the daughter-in-law at home all day is really boring for them.

Li Yue is also concerned about Lishan's accounts, and he should really find a time to go back.

The aunt handed the bear a couple of hawthorns, and it ate and stared at the fish that was grilled on the shelf.

Zhang Yang looked at Li Yue, who had crushed the pepper with salt with a medicinal twist and sprinkled it on the grilled fish.

Look at her slender fingers, sprinkle the finely chopped pepper and salt, layer after layer, and when she is done with these, she begins to grind for the next use.

Xiao Wu looked at this scene and whispered, "Master, it will be very salty to eat like this."

Zhang Yang nodded, "Your teacher has been eating Qingtang for a year, and he always wants to eat something heavy lately."

Seeing that she was still embarrassed, Zhang Yang looked at the rice porridge that was boiling in the pot again, "Drink two more mouthfuls of porridge when eating."

Hearing the suggestion, Xiao Wu nodded secretly.

Grill some more small fish to a crispy crisp, these crispy little fish are the bear's favorite.

Zhang Yang picked up the warm porridge that was placed aside.

I tasted it myself, tried the warmth of the porridge, and then fed it to my daughter.

Xiao Wu and Xu Hui ate grilled fish together, and they had to drink a big mouthful of porridge every time they ate, and their cheeks were bulging.

From time to time, their eyes looked at the teacher.

Not surprisingly, the grilled fish was particularly salty, but the teacher was still very satisfied.

"Looks like it's salty." Li Yue finished eating a fish and took another sip of water.

Looking at the two little girls again, she asked softly, "Isn't it salty?"

Xiao Wu swallowed the porridge in his mouth, "It's quite delicious."

Xu Hui also smiled reluctantly, "Well, the fish baked by the teacher is delicious."

Li Yue nodded with satisfaction.

Obviously, the two little girls said very reluctantly, and the daughter-in-law is still comfortable, is it true that there is such a thing as being pregnant and stupid for three years?

has no experience, and Zhang Yang can only rely on his own feelings to understand.

But in terms of math topics and teaching disciples, her thinking is still very clear, and she is not completely stupid.

Zhang Yang patiently fed the child porridge, and from the beginning he was a little resistant to eating a few bites now.

After feeding the small half bowl, she began to resist.

Zhang Yang drank the leftover porridge from his daughter.

Warm winds blow in the wind, and this is a time of year when the afternoon is always sleepy.

Li Yue, Xiao Wu, and Xiao Hui took a break in the water pavilion.

Picking up the toolbox he brought, Zhang Yang took out two bullet yellows, which are one of the latest achievements of the Lishan Blacksmith Workshop.

The bounce is the size of a little finger in a circle.

The condition looks pretty good.

After Master Jiang forged the iron repeatedly, before calcining and cooling, he wound it, tightened it and forged it to have the current result.

It is a very laborious and clumsy method, which can only be done at a time when the casting process is still backward.

Sitting cross-legged in front of the water pavilion, he took out the sleeve arrows he had made at the beginning.

Take out two more small pieces of wood and polish them carefully.

Make a button out of two pieces of wood, then compact the bullet yellow and put it into the sleeve of the sleeve arrow.

Aim at the stake in the distance, pull the button of the wood chip, and under the thrust of the bullet yellow, the sleeve arrow will come out.

Under this elastic force, many parts above the Sleeve Arrow were shattered.

The arrow was lost not far away

, and did not hit the stake.

Zhang Yang let out a long sigh as he cleaned up the parts all over the ground, and the sleeve itself was still not stable enough.

I took out a stack of drawings and carefully revised them.

The two aunts stood aside and observed quietly, what the county marquis wanted to make was a hidden weapon, which was hidden in the cuffs.

It's a very insidious weapon, and as a martial artist, it's very unrecognized.

If you want to hurt someone, why use such a hidden weapon, you can hurt someone by throwing a knife in your hand.

Xiaohui woke up, she carried her skirt to the lake, washed her face with the lake water, and then she was in a lot of energy.

Seeing the drawings one by one, Xu Hui asked curiously, "Is the teacher improving this weapon again?"

Zhang Yang revised the drawings and nodded, "I need to replace the wooden parts with iron, but according to the current expectations, changing most of the parts to iron will increase the weight, and it will not be so light to use."

Xu Hui picked up the Hidden Arrow on the ground and looked at the sharp arrow carefully, "The teacher said that Lishan's technology can only be used in production."

Zhang Yang explained in a low voice: "Technological improvement is often not just an improvement of one level, if this sleeve arrow can be successfully made, it means that the casting level of Lishan has risen to a new level."

"This is a joint improvement of fineness and quality, and the change of technology can be applied in more places, for example, we have made elastic yellow, which means that our forging process has reached a new level, and the hardness and expansibility of iron can be greatly improved."

Xu Hui was holding her chin with one hand and digesting these words, "It's like a person has talent and learning, and his understanding of world affairs can also be improved."

Zhang Yang smiled and didn't deny it, "Assemble the parts of the Hidden Arrow and put it in a small box."

"Hmm." Xu Hui obediently picked up the small parts on the ground.

The child in the stroller also woke up, and she looked at her father with clear eyes, reaching out to grab the ribbon that floated down from the stroller.

The bear's ears moved, and when he heard the child make some movement, he immediately sat up, first scanned around vigilantly, then made sure that the child was okay, and sniffed carefully.

Then he lay on the ground very enchantingly, scratching his belly comfortably.

It was almost evening, and the wind that blew brought coolness, and Li Yue and Xiao Wu woke up from their afternoon naps.

Stretching comfortably, Li Yue picked up the child from the stroller again, looking at the child's clear eyes and tender cheeks, her gaze was also gentle.

Zhang Yang cleaned up the place, and the family left.

Zhongshu Province was busy for three days, and many officials stayed up all night during these three days, and finally arranged everything on the eve of the imperial examination.

In the examination room next to the Chongwen Hall, a group of students lined up to enter the examination room.

Xu Jingzong and Zhang Daxiang stood on the side of the road, looking at the group of people who were going to participate in this imperial examination, and their eyes fell on Xue Rengui and Pei Xingjian.

"Brother Elephant saw that one tall and one short, it was Pei Xingjian and Xue Rengui, the tall one was Xue Rengui, and the fifteen-year-old young man was Pei Xingjian."

Zhang Daxiang was puzzled: "Zhang Shangshu has a crush on these two people?"

Xu Jingzong nodded and said, "Exactly?"

How much experience can a fifteen-year-old young man have, and can he do good deeds in the Foreign Affairs Academy?

There is also that Xue Rengui, who looks like a stupid big man, and his big eyes are also stunned.

Zhang Daxiang looked embarrassed, "Are these two people Zhang Shangshu's relatives or acquaintances?"

Xu Jingzong was entangled: "I asked Zhang Shangshu, and I also went to inquire about them, but I don't know them at all."

"Want the Foreign Affairs House to take these two men? What does he think?"

"Who is the instructor asking?"

There were many officers and soldiers guarding the imperial examination room.

In the past half a month, Zhang Yang devoted all his thoughts to building a new home, and went to Lishan in the early morning, showing an attitude of not asking about political affairs.

There are more than 13 villages and counties in Shannan Road, Xiangzhou, and there are six government schools.

This is a big step forward in the advancement of government and learning.

It is also the biggest achievement since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince presided over the official school.

In the future, more government schools were opened, and although there was great resistance, Li Chengqian was firm and had no idea of retreating.

The imperial examination lasted for five days, and the Ming classics, policy theories, arithmetic, and martial arts examinations were completed.

Half a month later, this imperial examination was unveiled.

Xue Rengui stood in the crowd and looked at the name of the list above, looked for it three times, and found Pei Xingjian's name, but he didn't find himself.

This time, Pei Xingjian's results in the imperial examination were not good, and he was only at the end.

The servant can see that this is the little boy's deliberate doing, and with the little boy's current knowledge, he can compete for the first place.

How could it be only in the last few places.

It's just that the little boy is willful, but fortunately, he is also on the list, and he can finally enter the office.

The servant said in a low voice, "With the current ranking of the little boy, he can enter the Hongwen Pavilion for compilation."

Pei Xingjian didn't care about the servant on his side, seeing that Xue Rengui was about to leave quickly, he followed in three steps and two steps, "Brother Xue, what are you going to do now?"

Xue Rengui's eyes were a little more decisive, "I already have a plan."

Pei Xingjian hurriedly stopped him, "Brother Xue, if you go back to Hedong now and leave with the Liu family, then Liu Yuanwai will definitely let the officers and soldiers arrest you on the charge of abducting his daughter."

"Don't worry."

Xue Rengui's tone was firm, and the tall man pushed slightly, and Pei Xingjian fell to the ground.

He carried the burden on his back, and his steps became faster and faster.

If you fail in the first imperial examination, you will still fail in the second imperial examination.

Liu Yuanwai can wait for one year, but not the second year.

His daughter's years are getting older.

A woman will always get married, and she will not wait for him all the time.

Pei Xingjian got up again, "Brother Xue, I know you will miss her, but why do you have no wife, why do you have to suffer!"

"There are enough regrets in this life." Xue Rengui continued to stride towards the East City Gate.

"Brother Xue, think about it again, I can use the elders in the family to think of a way for you, at least let me try, maybe there is still room for mediation."

[In view of the general environment,

Xue Rengui didn't stop, "You've helped me enough."

As they reached the gate of the city, a group of officials stopped the two of them.

Xue Rengui looked away with a low face.

"Xue Rengui, Pei Xingjian, please stay." Xu Jingzong said loudly.

Hearing the other party call his name, and it was a person wearing an official uniform, Xue Rengui stopped, "What's the matter?"

Pei Xingjian was also stunned, looking at the menacing appearance of the other party's large number of menacing, "Did we commit a crime?"

Xu Jingzong looked at the people who were following him, "Look at what you all look like, who did you learn from the fierce and vicious looks!"

A few strong men grinned and showed a kind attitude.

is a man with a big face and a scruffy beard, and his smile is even more twisted.

Xu Jingzong looked at the two people in front of him again, "Can you two take a step to speak?"

Xue Rengui frowned and looked at Pei Xingjian, usually he made up his mind about this kind of thing.

If something really happened, at least Brother Xue could be left for a long time, Pei Xingjian hurriedly bowed and saluted, and followed first.

Xu Jingzong smiled and nodded, "This way, please."

Led them to a secluded mansion, this mansion was very dilapidated, An Yanyan had been locked up here before, but now it has been thrown into the black workshop.

Xu Jingzong looked around, "Although it is a little broken, it can be cleaned up and people can live."

"What does it mean to be in person? What do you call it?" Pei Xingjian was alert.

"Xia Guan is Xu Jingzong, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and helps Zhang Shangshu take charge of the Foreign Affairs Academy."

In this Chang'an City, you can hear a lot of Zhang Yang's deeds.

Pei Xingjian was full of suspicions,

In the early years, I heard that Zhang Yang asked people to ask about his current situation, and now it is Xu Jingzong who brought him to this kind of place.

It is said that this Xu Jingzong is Zhang Yang's right-hand man, and there are a total of five attendants in the Ministry of Rites, four of whom serve in the Foreign Affairs Academy.

This Xu Jingzong was the first person to follow Zhang Yang.

Since Zhang Yang did not ask about political affairs, the affairs of the Foreign Affairs Yuan were presided over by Xu Jingzong.

"I've seen Xu Shilang." Pei Xingjian bowed slightly.

Xue Rengui also saluted, his movements slightly clumsy.

Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "The imperial examination has already had results, last year you Xue Rengui came to Chang'an City to participate in the imperial examination, that time the court was not hired, this time the court is still not hired."

Xue Rengui arched his hand and said, "It's because I don't have enough knowledge and knowledge, and my skills are not as good as others, so I have nothing to say."

Xu Jingzong sighed with emotion: "What are your plans after that?"

Pei Xingjian is still thinking about the current situation.

Xue Rengui replied, "Go home."

Xu Jingzong took out a booklet and handed it to him, "It's better to stay in Chang'an City than to return to your hometown, our Foreign Affairs Yuan is short of manpower, if Brother Xue is willing, you can come to the Foreign Affairs Yuan as an official."

Xue Rengui took the booklet, which said that he was appointed as the head guard of the Foreign Affairs Yuan.

Xu Jingzong said, "If Brother Xue is unwilling, he should not have seen this resignation."

"I have already failed the imperial examination, can I still be an official?"

Xu Jingzong explained: "Brother Xue doesn't know, in addition to the six departments of the three provinces of the DPRK and China, there are also Guozijian, Hongwen Pavilion, Sifang Pavilion, and Chongwen Pavilion, all of which can accept people from Fang City, that is, those who fail in the imperial examination can have a place to go."

"It's the same with our Foreign Affairs Yuan, in addition to the officials approved by the Ministry of Officials, our Foreign Affairs Yuan can also recruit people from the market, and we have also purchased this house for this purpose, which was purchased by the Foreign Affairs Yuan at the beginning of the year."

The other party is to appoint and to live, and everything has been arranged.

Being able to be an official in Chang'an City, presumably Liu Yuan didn't dare to care about anything more.

Seeing the two young people in front of him in trouble, Xu Jingzong said again, "What do you two think?"

Pei Xingjian asked, "These things were all arranged by Zhang Shangshu, can I see him below?"

Xu Jingzong looked at Pei Xingjian, the fifteen-year-old child was not tall, but there was a sense of awakening in his eyes, why did he open his mouth to see the book of the Ministry of Rites?
