Chapter 1: Li Luodi

Next Chapter

In the 22nd year of Ming Zhou, the Great Zhou ushered in the days when all students were overcast.

Today is Zhang Bang Day, and the day has just dawned, and the gate of the children's school has already been surrounded by the people who are eager to get through.

"Why hasn't it come out yet!"

"I'm dying!"

"Yes! Oh, yes! I didn't sleep all night last night, and I came here before dawn! ”

"I just hope to be on the list, so that my Liu family's ancestral grave will be smoking!"

The onlookers were gossiping and the voices were boiling, all of which showed the importance of this list, and everyone's faces were full of nervousness, expectation, anxiety and other expressions.

The Ming and Zhou dynasties were established by Emperor Xiao Wu, during his reign, he admired martial arts and suppressed literature, was warlike and rejoicing, and had been conquering everywhere for many years, resulting in the country's people living in poverty, banditry and trouble, and because of the majority of martial artists, leading to the rise of various gangs.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are fights.

When the various forces in the rivers and lakes reach a certain level, there will be a threat to the imperial court.

As a result of years of war, the treasury was empty, and the country was almost torn apart. The biggest reason is that in addition to the war, there are more literati to govern the government.

Therefore, in the 18th year of the Ming Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Xiao Wu officially established the Zhou School Examination. Anyone who has more than a bundle of hair can register for the exam.

The exam is divided into three stages, beginner, high school, and children's school. If there is a name on the list of 328 children's schools in the end, then congratulations to the middle list, and you can be hired by the imperial court and divided into positions.

"Brother Luo, why don't you feel like you're in a hurry?"

At a fritter table behind the crowd of onlookers, a middle-aged man with a simple appearance looked helplessly at the young man who was leisurely drinking soy milk next to him.

This young man was dressed in white and had black hair, his clothes and hair were flowing and elegant, untied or untied, and the sun was shining on his well-defined and extremely handsome face, which was very good-looking.

He is Li Luo's younger brother, and the middle-aged man next to him is his cousin, Li Ping.

"Otherwise, big brother, I'll squeeze in and help you take a look!"

As he spoke, he wanted to get up.

"Big brother, don't worry, it's mine, it's mine, it's not mine, and it doesn't belong to me after all."

Li Luodi wiped the fritter residue from the corner of his mouth, pulled Li Ping down, and chuckled.

"Having said that, but when my brother is really anxious at this moment, if he can't pass the exam, not only will he not be able to explain to your father and mother, but your sister-in-law may not know how to clean me up when I go back."

Li Ping smiled bitterly, and then felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "Of course, my brother specifies that I believe you can be on the list." ”

"That's it, let's drink soy milk first! It's all cold. ”

How can you be in the mood to drink at this time, Li Ping thought, but looking at Li Luodi with a faint smile on his face, he couldn't say anything at the moment, so he casually put the thin-bearded fritters in the bowl that had already been soaked in soy milk into his mouth and swallowed it in a big gulp.

Seeing his cousin like this, Brother Li Luo smiled helplessly, wasn't he in a hurry? No, he is more anxious than anyone else, and he must be on the list in this children's school examination.

As long as he passes the child's school, he can transform from a student to a scholar, and if he becomes a scholar, he can become an official, and there are more channels to investigate that case. It was his lifelong goal.

"It's out, it's out!"

I don't know who shouted, which made the people who had been silent make a noise again.

I saw the door of the children's school open, and a team of soldiers poured out first, controlling everyone, and then several officials took the list and pasted it, and after the paste, they said to everyone, "The 328 scholars of the children's school have been produced, I hope that the people on the list can be related to the country, worry about the country and the people, of course, those who are not on the list should not be discouraged, and the next year......

There is a lot of sprinkling, of course, more to encourage those who did not make the list, because too many people pin their hopes on this child's school.

After the official finished reading, he retreated, and the people who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly surrounded him.

"That bastard keeps squeezing me from behind!"

"Don't squeeze, squeeze what!"

The list has long been fenced in. Uproar.

"Brother Luo, you are weak, stay here," Li Ping rolled up his sleeves and was eager to try, "Brother help you squeeze in and have a look." “

"Big brother, don't panic, look at me.!"

I saw that Li Luodi stood up unhurriedly, coughed lightly, and then yelled at the crowd, "Whose tattoo silver has landed?" No one has it, I've got it in my pocket! “

The voice fell,

"Where? Where? Where's my silver tattoo? “

A large number of people in the rear suddenly came over, and they didn't even care to look at the list, and they wouldn't fly anywhere anyway.

"It's shameless, that's the tattooed silver I lost, how did it become yours."

"That's the money my mother paid for me breakfast in the morning!"

Everyone shouted, and then kept their eyes on the ground and searched around.

When everyone was still looking down, Li Luodi had already squeezed in frantically in the stunned eyes of Li Ping's cousin.

"God willing, if I go to high school this time, I am willing to be a vegetarian for life."

Li Luodi, who had wasted all his strength, finally squeezed in, didn't have time to pay attention to the sweat all over his body, and looked at it word by word on the list.

From front to back, I couldn't take my eyes off it, for fear of missing my name.

"I'm in, I'm in!"

From time to time, the crowd of onlookers erupted into shouts that could not hide their excitement.

Every time I heard this, the onlookers were pinched in their hearts, which meant that there was one less place.

See, nineteenth, Helie is nineteenth, Li Luodi.

Li Luodi, who had been looking for a while, breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and the stone hanging in his heart finally landed, and immediately surged with excitement that could not be concealed.

"Brother Luo, have you been hit?"

Li Luodi was gently patted on the shoulder, and then turned his head and poured into Li Ping's extremely nervous face in front of him.

Not wanting his cousin to worry anymore, Li Luodi showed a warm smile, but he couldn't hide his excitement in his eyes, "Won, nineteenth." “

"Really hit!"

Li Ping was pleasantly surprised, and then looked at the nineteenth position, the three big characters of Jin Cancan, Li Luodi. ”

"Nineteenth! My brother is doing well! ”

Li Ping shouted excitedly, and then continued to shout as if showing off, "It is worthy of my Li family's species." ”

The person next to him looked at the two of them with envy and jealousy.

Li Ping didn't realize it, and said happily, "Let's go, brother Luo, go back and ask your sister-in-law to stew pig's trotters for us to eat!" ”

Li Ping put his arm around Li Luodi and swaggered out in the envious eyes of everyone. 、

Brother Li Luodi looked at his cousin helplessly, and then felt warm again, in the days when his father and mother were away, the eldest brother and sister-in-law took care of him like parents.

"That's right!"

Halfway through, Li Landing seemed to think of something.

"What's wrong? Fallen brother! Li Ping said with a smile.

The oath just now doesn't count, what I'm talking about is a lifelong vegetarian diet in addition to chicken, duck and fish, sheep, cattle and fat geese, delicacies from the mountains and seas, etc.

Brother Li Luodi muttered silently, then turned his head to the latter and smiled, "Sister-in-law must be in a hurry, let's hurry back and tell her the good news." ”

"Let's go back and eat pig's trotters!"
