Chapter Ninety-Nine: A New Year
"Can you do me a small favor?" , Li Anyi looked at Xiao Shuyi with expectation.
"What's the matter? As long as I can do it, I can do it", at this time, Xiao Shuyi was in a good mood and said generously.
Li Anyi sneered: "Can you ask your father to take back this holy decree?"
Hearing this, Xiao Shuyi looked at him with eyes like a fool, and said, "What do you think the holy decree is, and you can take it back if you want to?"
Li Anyi was a little embarrassed and felt unlikely, so he said: "Then can you let your father make another holy decree and reject this holy decree."
Xiao Shuyi said angrily: "Impossible!"
As the so-called gentleman says, it is difficult to chase the horse, not to mention the lord of a country, how can this be done if he says what he says, how can he do it, if he really does this, how will the world think of this emperor, and will anyone choose to believe in this emperor? The answer is obvious.
The glimmer of hope that had just risen was ruthlessly knocked down, and Li Anyi became unhappy again.
Xiao Shuyi handed back the holy decree in her hand to Li Anyi, and then asked casually, "Is the mirror ready?"
"No, it will never be done", Li Anyi replied, his tone was quite bad.
Xiao Shuyi also knew that he was because of the holy decree, so she didn't care at all, and after leaving a sentence of 'I'll come back to get it in a few days', she drifted away, but she didn't know if it was an illusion, and her steps seemed to be much lighter than when she came before.
……
Time flies, and the new year is coming.
And Xiao Daoqi and Xiao Shuyi, two siblings, left early because they had to go back to Beijing for the New Year.
On the occasion of parting, he learned that Li Anyi was going to participate in the imperial examination next year and would go to the capital in the near future, Xiao Daoqi's depressed mood was swept away, and he patted Li Anyi's shoulder a few times hard, laughed, and waited for Li Anyi to give him a few elbow strikes.
……
Chinese New Year's Eve is coming soon!
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the entire Huai'an Mansion was shrouded in a joyful atmosphere, no matter how the year went, in short, every family gathered around their own tables, eating richer dishes than before, chatting with parents, smiling on their faces, and full of hope for the arrival of the new year.
Li Anyi is the same here, after eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, more than a dozen children frolicked, the small yard was full of children's laughter, Xiao Huai is the eldest sister of this group of children, playing games, commanding the conductor, so not excited, look at her excitement, it is estimated that I will not be able to sleep tonight.
"Brother Anyi, you can also play together", Xiao Huai beckoned to Li Anyi excitedly.
Li Anyi refused in disgust, how old he is, and he is still playing with a group of little children, if he is seen by others, what will others think of him.
said that it was too late, and suddenly a piece of unknown thing fell on Li Anyi's head, and Li Anyi was instantly furious: "Who is it!"
Xiao Huai stuck out his tongue at Li Anyi.
"Bear child, it seems that you can't teach you a lesson!"
Li Anyi stood up from the chair, clenched his fists, and walked towards Xiao Huai with a sneer.
"Ahh , Xiao Huai exclaimed, spread his little feet and ran.
Li Anyi was in hot pursuit.
When the rest of the children saw it, they were also excited, and they ran one after another, following Li Anyi.
Lin Xue'er on the side watched her brother An Yi playing happily with the children, and couldn't help but smile and groan, she hadn't had such a lively Chinese New Year's Eve for a long time.
Holding the sword in both hands, Qin Runing, who was expressionless, faced this situation, even she didn't notice it, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily outlined a charming smile.
The new year began in spring, in this season when everything is reviving and everything is going to be beautiful, Li Anyi ushered in a very bad news.
I don't know why, this year's imperial examination time has been much earlier, and the township examinations in all states and provinces of Qi are scheduled for March 1!
As soon as this news came out, the whole world was boiling, and countless scholars complained, made noise, and even wrote books to get the imperial court to retract this order, so that they would have enough time to review their homework, of course, this was not of any soft use.
For people who have confidence in themselves, they just smile indifferently and don't take this matter to heart, and it doesn't have much impact on them.
Obviously, Li Anyi is not such a type of person, even worse than the first type of person, no, be confident, it should be said that it is far inferior.
Although he has the identity of a showman, Li Anyi still doesn't know very well what the imperial examination in this world is, and he doesn't even know what to test, let alone say that he is good in the exam.
If you don't do well in the exam, it's just a failure for others, it's not a big deal, it's a big deal to do it again in three years, but for Li Anyi, it's very different, once you don't do well in the exam, the only way to wait for him is a dead end.
Every time he thought of this, Li Anyi couldn't help but scold, scolding the broken emperor, the damned dog emperor, from the eighteenth generation of ancestors.
After calming down, Li Anyi had to face this cruel fact, frowning and thinking about how to do well in this township examination, and then take the exam, and finally get the top three in the palace exam.
If he can't do this, Li Anyi is sure that the dog emperor will definitely cut off his head mercilessly, as the saying goes, the emperor is ruthless, not to mention that he is insignificant, and when he cuts off his head, there is no trace of psychological pressure.
What to do? What else can I do? If it was his own before crossing, he really didn't have a little confidence in this township test, but now he is different, he has a computer in his mind, coupled with that super memory, although there is only a little more than a month left, but the confidence is more or less.
The question arises again, how to learn?
If you want to make rapid progress in the knowledge of the imperial examination in a short period of time, then the best way is undoubtedly to find someone who has been immersed in this Tao for many years and let him teach him.
Gradually, a gray-bearded figure appeared in his mind, this person was Dean Zhang, who had come to Xue Yixuan before and wanted to pull himself into Huai'an Mansion Academy, that is, Zhang Zifeng's father.
Thinking of this, Li Anyi hesitated, not why, when the family condescended to Xue Yixuan to invite him to join Huai'an Mansion Academy, he was successfully fooled by his illness of not being able to study and refused.
The courtyard didn't look like a stupid person, and I am afraid that he had already reacted, and was so angry in his heart that he wanted to tie him up, drop him on a tree, and whip him fiercely.
Going to him was undoubtedly embarrassing.
can rack his brains, Li Anyi can't find someone who can replace Zhang Yuanzi, and in the end he can only grit his teeth, TM is dry, it is better to be whipped a few times than to be beheaded!
Damn the emperor, the damn official, in the midst of scolding, Li Anyi turned around and walked into the room, before going, you still need to make some preparations, at least to know what the imperial examination is going to take, so that you don't easily show your flaws.
Otherwise, a showman doesn't even know anything about the imperial examination, which is unreasonable, it is very excessive, and when others ask, they can't lie.
