Chapter 2 Rush to Beijing to take the exam

Seeing the man coming in, Ye Jiu and Ye Zi both shouted, "Father, you're back." ”

The middle-aged man was Ye Jianguo, the father of the two, and the head of the Ye family, and when he saw Ye Jiu, he said: "Xiao Jiu, how do you feel, do you feel that uncomfortable?" ”

"Father, I'm fine, I don't know if my father went to the clan meeting, what happened to the family?"

Jian Jianguo nodded and smiled, "What happened to you in the Lion Mountain Temple that day?" There is also a scientific expedition coming soon, this time the main discussion is about you and Ye Tian, as well as Ye Lang and the three of them going to Beijing. ”

Ye Jiudao: "I don't know exactly what happened that day, I only remember that I went to check a piece of black iron and accidentally mixed it, and then I didn't know anything, and when I woke up, I was already in bed." ”

At this time, Ye Zi answered: "If you don't remember clearly, don't remember it, as long as my brother is fine." ”

Ye Jianguo thought about it, and didn't pursue it: "Then you have a good rest for two days, and after two days, you will go to Kyoto with Ye Lang and Ye Tian, and then the three of you will be escorted by the Great Elder, and the people from the other four major families will also go, you pay more attention to safety, and don't do the same as last time, you have to take the test well, and strive to give Lao Tzu the whole official back, don't let others say that you are a useless waste and let others see jokes." ”

Ye Jiu smiled bitterly: "I will definitely work hard, father." ”

Ye Jianguo sighed and said: "After this family meeting, the elders unanimously decided that whoever of the three of you who is admitted to the top prize will be the young master of the Ye family, and whoever will have the opportunity to live in the Ye family of the main family, our Ye family in Qinglong Town is just a branch of the main family." ”

Ye Lang was curious: "Why are we their branch!" ”

Ye Jianguo said: "The first head of the Ye family in Qinglong Town is an elder of the Ye family in the Imperial City of Kyoto. ”

Early in the morning two days later, the Great Elder Ye Jianjun took Ye Jiu and the three of them to set off for Kyoto in a carriage.

The four of them brought some simple luggage and dry food, Qinglong Town is a relatively remote place in the Kingdom of Daliang, and the journey on the road is half a month.

Ye Jiu and the others walked all the way for four or five days, and when they arrived at a village in Kongjiazhai, it was already dusk, Ye Jianjun stopped the carriage and said: "We have been on the road for five days, and we will go to the guest house in the village tonight to stay for one night, and set off early tomorrow morning." ”

The four of them walked into the village, found a small guesthouse, and walked in.

A shopkeeper walked over when he saw a few people and said with a smile: "Are the guests staying in the hotel or eating?" ”

Ye Lang said at this time: Give us two good rooms and a larger upper room, and here are a few small dishes, two bottles of small wine. ”

Haole: "Wait a few guests, the wine and food will be here soon." ”

A few people found a round table and sat down, and after a while, the shopkeeper brought two wines and served a few dishes and said, "A few guest officers use it slowly." ”

Before Xiao Er could retreat, Ye Jiu picked up a roasted chicken on the table and took a big bite of it, and kept saying that it was delicious, it was delicious.

Ye Tiandao: "Eat more if it's delicious, there is still a long way to go in the next period of time." ”

Ye Jiu was about to speak, but he heard a big man from the other table next to him chatting: "I heard that there are more people in this scientific expedition than last time, and the examination questions are more difficult than last time, but it is certain that the border war is the main topic, and you can prepare well in advance along the way." ”

Several young people said that they would work hard, but there was also a hanger who shook his head and said: "In recent years, the border passes have been fighting every year, and the lives of the common people are in deep trouble and miserable. ”

The Great Zhou State and the Great Qi State were becoming more and more ambitious and wanted to annex Daliang.

In my opinion: "If there are so many wars today, it is not very peaceful, even if you are admitted to the champion and become a big official, you will still roast yourself on the fire." ‘’

So I'm here with you this time, just to have fun, to see the capital of Daliang and you to see the world, and then to see the prosperous capital of Daliang.

Hearing this, Ye Jianjun smiled at Ye Jiu and the others: "Although the Great Liang Kingdom is not as strong as the Great Zhou and the Great Qi, Xiao Tianlong, the previous lord of the Great Liang Kingdom three years ago, has broken through to the Great Martial Arts Grand Master. ”

As long as Daliang is there, he will not fall for a thousand years, and no matter how strong people from other countries are, they will not dare to set foot in the land of Kyoto.

Ye Lang interjected at this time: "What is a martial arts grand master." ”

Ye Jianjun said: "In the Kyushu Continent, not only are the rivers and lakes respected by martial arts, but the temples are also martial arts kings, and the realm of martial arts is divided; The refining realm, the qi refining realm, the innate realm, the innate realm is also called the grandmaster, and each realm is divided into the early stage, the middle stage, and the late stage, and the congenital peak is also called the great master of martial arts. ”

Ye Lang asked again: "Does our Ye family have an innate realm?" ”

Ye Jianjun glanced at Ye Lang: "There's a fart!" ”

"You think the innate realm is full of streets! Not to mention the Ye family, there is no one in the entire Qinglong Town, even if it is the Great Liang Dynasty, it does not exceed the number of hands. ”

I tell you that you don't understand this, so let's eat! I had to hurry early tomorrow morning, and after eating, several people went back to their rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, as soon as it was dusk, Ye Jiu and the others got up and hurried away, followed by the people who had eaten and talked yesterday.

When Dahan saw a few people, he came over and said, "A few of them are also in Beijing!" Why don't we go together? It's good to have a care along the way. ”

Ye Jianjun smiled when he heard this: "I don't know where you come from, you must have also entered Beijing to participate in the imperial examination." ”

Dahan replied: "My name is He Dahan, and everyone in the village likes to call me Dahan, we are from Hejia Village next to Qinglong Town, and several of them are my juniors, and we and a few of them are also neighbors." ”

After hearing this, Ye Jianjun said: "It turns out that you are from Hejia Village, you are all friends, I am fortunate to meet you!" Then let's go together. ”

After a few days of continuous travel, Ye Jiu and his party finally arrived at the Imperial City of Kyoto.

Although the Great Liang Kingdom is relatively weak among the countries, and the land occupied in the Kyushu Continent is also quite remote, the imperial city is also quite prosperous, which is an eye-opener for Ye Jiu and the others.

Although the imperial city was prosperous, Ye Jiu and his party had been in a hurry for a few days, and they were so tired that they were not in the mood to appreciate it.

A few people got out of the carriage, walked into the imperial city, found a guest to stay and ordered a table of side dishes, ready to rest, and went to the city to have a good walk after the big exam.

But at this moment, a little girl dressed like a maid and wearing a white dress walked in, holding a bunch of recommendations in her hand, and the little girl quickly sent a recommendation to each candidate, and then said: "Ladies and gentlemen, have come all the way to take the big exam, and it has been hard. Therefore, in order to increase the fun of your sons, I would like to wait for the next day after the end of your big exam, and invite you to the Mujia Racecourse to watch the triennial horse race. ”
