Marriage is harmless for Zhao Xuanqi.

Now he only needs to stay in the room every day, read carefully, flip through the various books of the Yuan family, and memorize the knowledge in them clearly.

Other chores and chores are all arranged and ordered by the old housekeeper, and the subordinates manage the house in an orderly manner, and nothing important will basically not disturb Zhao Xuanqi.

As soon as it is time to eat, there will be people who come to deliver meals, even if they go out to buy pens, ink, paper, inkstones and other things, everything is done by the next person.

There is no shortage of money, and there is a lot of dowry, which is enough to support him to study hard.

Zhao Xuanqi doesn't need to focus on other places, just study carefully with all his heart.

At the same time, his wife is also very virtuous, gentle and generous, kind and optimistic, and very considerate.

Sometimes Zhao Xuanqi reads for too long, she will quietly go to the back, take the initiative to massage Zhao Xuanqi, and tell some interesting things and share some joy.

and enthusiastically handed Zhao Xuanqi melons and fruits, cared about Zhao Xuanqi, and asked him to pay attention to the rest time and not get tired.

Sometimes she will have some little tempers, pestering Zhao Xuanqi to go shopping, or to play, wanting Zhao Xuanqi to buy her something, otherwise she will not walk.

The husband and wife care about each other and are very friendly.

Zhao Xuanqi felt that marrying such a kind and virtuous wife was simply a blessing for his three lives.

In such days, his knowledge continued to grow, and he read one book after another, and kept it firmly in his mind.

The only books treasured by the Yuan family, as well as the key contents of previous scientific expeditions, he remembered them one by one.

The handwriting is even more perfect, and I can't find any fault, and anyone who reads it has to applaud.

Time passed slowly, and the time for the scientific expedition was getting closer and closer.

On this day, the wife suddenly stepped forward and said that she was going to sell the dowry.

Zhao Xuanqi was surprised, isn't the family's money always enough, what is it to do by selling the dowry?

The wife said solemnly: "My husband's talent is amazing, all kinds of problems can be easily solved, and I am very relieved to my husband, but sometimes I can't answer the questions well and get into the exam..."

"People are extremely poor, and sometimes you need to look at the examiner's personality and hobbies, otherwise, some questions are not liked by the examiner, even if you answer well, he will not be able to give you a high score."

"Who the examiner is, what kind of party he is in, what kind of knowledge he advocates, including who he is studying with, who his enemies are, and what interests and hobbies he has, are the focus of answering questions."

She explained: "I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm just afraid of just in case, I think my family needs a lot of money to get through the county joints and inquire about the information of various examiners, so as to ensure that the husband's scientific examination is foolproof." ”

After hearing this, Zhao Xuanqi was very moved in his heart.

My wife has always cared so much about herself, as a man, how can she not be moved?

The examiner needs to go to the county town, and the examiners are all senior officials in the county town, and their status is superb, and it is definitely a lot of money to inquire about their interests and hobbies.

No wonder the wife wants to sell the dowry.

Zhao Xuanqi does not have any other property except for this house, most of the property is brought by his wife, and only by selling the dowry can he have the ability to inquire about the news.

"Madam, I'll leave the matter to you."

He held the woman's hands and solemnly promised: "If the wife is like this, what more can the husband ask for?" If I have the title of the gold list one day, I must pay you back the dowry a thousand times, and I must use the house made of pure gold as your new house, and only such a room is worthy of you. ”

The wife smiled disapprerovingly, thinking that her husband would talk big, but she still replied seriously, "Then I can wait for this day." ”

……

The days have passed quickly, and the three-year period has arrived.

The day of the scientific expedition has finally arrived.

This year, Zhao Xuanqi was already twenty years old, he carried a heavy bag, got into the carriage, said goodbye to his wife, and walked towards the location of the county town in the reluctant eyes of his wife.

"If I go to the imperial examination for three hundred miles, I will definitely be named on the gold list!"

Zhao Xuanqi swore silently in his heart.

No matter what, he can't afford to fail.

Whether it's for his wife, or for the villagers of Zhaojia Village, or for himself, he must be admitted to a higher reputation!

He will not forget the purpose of his coming to this world, only by becoming a great official, holding a high position, and changing the fate of many people, can he get a rich reward of points, so as to change his life against the sky in the main world.

Not for immortals, for mortal in the end.

The efforts of this world are just for the accumulation of the next world, so that you can step on the road of the strong step by step!

I have been sharpening my knives for three years, and I have been studying hard every day for three years, just waiting to get a good ranking in the next exam!

On the official road, the carriage headed towards the location of the county seat, and there were other talented scholars who accompanied Zhao Xuanqi.

In the past two years, Zhao Xuanqi has made many friends, limited by his personality and family, those big family talents, he has no ability to make friends, so most of the people he has friends with are talented scholars from poor families.

These people, some of whom are in their forties, are still a showman, and they are still insisting on rushing for the examination, and they will not fall behind in every imperial examination.

There are also a few Xiucai in their thirties, who have studied hard for several years and feel that their skills have arrived, so they also participated in this scientific examination.

Zhao Xuanqi is not familiar with these older people, and the reason why they are rushing to take the exam together is entirely because they are in the same county and have the friendship of fellow villagers.

He is more compatible with a person named Li Yuntian, who is only 23 years old, born in a poor family, from the academy, has good knowledge, and has a solid foundation.

Zhao Xuanqi felt that except for Li Yuntian, it was very difficult for others to be promoted in the exam, and they needed to rely on luck to bless them, otherwise there would be no hope at all.

The group was communicating and hurrying on the road.

About half a month later, I finally came to the county seat.

The Northern Wei Dynasty divided its territory into eighteen rivers and mountains, each of which had a county seat, which was the center of the surrounding prosperity and splendor, with a tall city and a prosperous culture.

The mountains and rivers where Zhao Xuanqi is located are relatively remote, located in the corner of the Northern Wei Kingdom, and the county seat is called Ziyun City.

The city wall is tall, like a giant lying on the ground, exuding a majestic atmosphere, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

At this moment, there is an endless stream of people in Ziyun City, and the official road is full of scholars and talents who are rushing to take the exam, and everyone is tired and dusty.

Some people are serving beautiful women in incense cars along the way, and rushing to take the exam is like playing in the mountains and rivers, without any hard work.

But some people relied on a pair of feet to hurry, and all the way down, the straw sandals were broken several pairs, and the soles of the feet were ground out of blood blisters.

All kinds of complaints continued.

"I finally came to Purple Cloud City alive, and the hardships along the way are not enough for outsiders."

"Yes, I heard that there is a poor Xiucai who walked on a remote path in order to take a shortcut, but was beheaded by a thief and died in vain."

"Are bandits stupid? Some Xiucai have failed the exam for many years, and they have spent all their money, so they will walk to catch the exam, which is just a poor bastard, and they still risk the world to rob the national capital of the imperial examination, are they not afraid of being exterminated by the government? ”

"Not to mention, that gang of thieves died miserably, the day after the news came out, they were wiped out by the nearby county order with troops, the entire village of more than 300 people, not one left, the body is still hanging on the official road to deter other thieves, I passed by the official road, I saw it with my own eyes."

"It deserves it, the imperial examination is the foundation of the country, it is the merit of a place, even the Xiucai who rushed to take the exam dared to rob, and his brain was mush, even if the court is in chaos now, and there are many thieves everywhere, but no one dares to rob Xiucai during the scientific examination, this gang of thieves has opened everyone's eyes."

A group of people lined up to enter Purple Cloud City.

Zhao Xuanqi and others also joined the team, and after the group entered the city, they found an inn to live in, and silently waited for the arrival of the imperial examination a few days later.

The imperial examination, the moment to change fate.

I don't know how many people will toss and turn these days, and it will be difficult to sleep.
