In fact, with the power of the Xiao family, the son wants to be an official, even if he does not participate in the imperial examination, he can become an official, but the imperial examination is not only a way for scholars and ordinary people to ascend, but also a good way for the children of official eunuchs to prove themselves.

When Ji Yuan rowed away, he naturally heard the sentence behind him to find someone to drink tea, this kind of rhetoric that is obviously the relationship between the Lake examination and the Gongzi did not object, it can only be said that it is some kind of convention at the top of the feudal dynasty.

Of course, these people don't dare to go too far, at most they get some direction to go to hard labor, if it's too much, the emperor's majesty is not a joke, and there are also officials who were sentenced to death for leaking exam questions in Dazhen's history.

"I can only say Master Yin, your opponent in the imperial examination is as strong as a cloud!"

The canopy boat rowed farther and farther, completely out of the sight of the big boat.

It was already completely dark, and Ji Yuan simply lifted his strength again, often the oars could make the boat run far away with a heavy stroke in the water, and the wooden oars were also extremely tough under the protection of the weak mana, and would not break because of this huge force that was obviously overloaded.

Before midnight, the canopy boat has passed by Zhuangyuandu, there are lights and fires on the pier, there are restaurants and inns, and the Tongtian Jiangjiang Temple not far away is also a lantern hanging and there is incense.

However, it will be a cold winter night, and there will be no ferry to walk the river.

After a while, Ji Yuan rowed the boat to the place where he used to anchor in those days, and he was slightly relieved, I don't know if the old man Chen can't find himself in the past few days, and he will report to the official in a hurry.

Ji Yuan didn't care so much, tied the boat rope on the shore, walked to the bamboo door on both sides of the canopy and closed it, and covered it with a quilt and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, a familiar shout came from the shore.

"Mr. Ji, is Mr. Ji you?Mr. Ji~~~~"

Ji Yuan actually opened his eyes when he heard the footsteps from far and near, and he naturally got out of the canopy cabin.

Seeing Ji Yuan come out, the old man on the shore was also relieved.

"Hey, Mr. Ji, where have you been rowing these days? You disappeared for so many days without saying hello on this cold day, I am afraid of your ......"

Chen Laohan's words stopped here, but Ji Yuan also knew what he meant, and he bowed his hand to Chen Laohan very apologetically.

"It's Ji Mou, it's not, I really didn't think it through, I hope Uncle Chen forgives me, I haven't been able to catch fish a few days ago, and I met a friend who said that you can catch it if you row farther, and you also want to enjoy the snow by boating, so I went together, and I forgot to leave a message for Uncle Chen. ”

Old Man Chen shook his head and stretched out his hand to point at Ji Yuan.

"You've been gone for many days, but I've scared the old man, but it's good to be back, it's good to be back......"

After complaining for a while, Chen Laohan adjusted his mentality, and he was also familiar with each other, so he dared to chatter like this.

At this time, Chen Laohan also habitually looked at the fish basket near the bow of the boat, and sure enough, it was still empty.

"Mr. Ji, you and your friend didn't catch a fish again, did you?"

"Yes, I didn't catch it, everyone was disappointed and left!"

"Also, it's really evil recently, the people in the village can't catch any fish, the fish don't come up, at most they can't claw some small fish and shrimp, and fishing never takes the bait, Mr. Ji, you said it won't be like this after the beginning of spring, right?"

As he spoke, the old man approached the shore and handed a lotus leaf bag in his hand to Ji Yuan, and there was still a trace of heat on it.

Ji Yuan's nose moved, and he happily took the lotus leaf bag, and said casually.

"Have you begged Jiang Shen Niangniang?"

"Please, how could it not be!"

"That's fine, I guess it'll be fine soon!"

Oh, by the way, Mr. Ji wants to drink, if he wants, I'll get you some local wine in the afternoon?"

Ji Yuan thought about it, as if the last time he had not finished drinking, he was swept away by the old dragon and the boat.

"No, no, I still have some wine here, and I'll mention it to the old man when I need it." ”

"Okay, Mr. Ji, you use it slowly, and I'll leave first, old man. ”

"Okay, Uncle Chen, go slowly!"

Chen Laohan relaxed his heart, and walked much more briskly, naturally there were some people who cared about Ji Yuan, but more of them were afraid that something would really happen.

When Chen Laohan walked away, Ji Yuan also untied the rope of the bolt on the shore, picked up the oar and propped it on the shore, and swung the boat away.

This alien aquatic spirit, especially the dragon genus that is too crowded, is gradually leaving, and the disturbed aquatic creatures in the river should soon return to normal.

As usual, when he got to a suitable position, he sat on a small stool at the bow of the boat, and while using dried insects as bait to cast a rod and fish, he untied the lotus leaf and ate the bun, and put a new book borrowed from the old dragon on his lap.

This book is called "The Imperial Treatise", not a book of heaven, but it is indeed not an ordinary book, so Ji Yuan can see it clearly, and there seems to be another mystery between the lines of this book, if the person who is not strong enough to stare at the words on the book for a long time, he will be dizzy and even hallucinate.

This book, like the previous ones, was not signed by the author.

Ji Yuan once had some bad taste, whether it was because he was in the world of demons and immortals after all, and those authors were actually a little afraid that they would write something that would make a certain master and demon look at it, so they directly found it or simply beat it, so they didn't sign it one by one.

"The Imperial Treatise" is not a book of formulas, to be precise, it is a book to help you understand the "imperial law" in the formulas, and most of the books with such thick books are such miscellaneous books, such as "The Legend of the Outer Dao" and "Tongming Strategy".

The key is that this kind of miscellaneous book is good-looking and interesting!

The so-called law is not passed on lightly, and the content of the real law is often not so mixed, and most of them are preserved with objects similar to conveying the gods with things.

However, Ji Yuan believes that these miscellaneous books are all university questions, and some wild ideas are worth scrutinizing, and this "Imperial Treatise" goes from basic to profound, talking about the author's research on the imperial law such as resisting water, fire, wind, and thunder, and does not talk about the Fa-rectification, but only talks about experience and speculation.

According to the proportion of various imperial law centers and guesses, Ji Yuan can easily analyze the book's own Taoism and skills, such as the thunder, which is not the author of the book, and this part of the content is basically all heard and assumed or scrutinized and discussed.

Holding a bun and flipping the book, the text is exciting, and it is talking about the details of the soft and rigid changes of the water, which coincides with Ji Yuan's own confirmation, and this feeling of sao to his own itch makes Ji Yuan smile.

The tip of the fishing rod in his left hand trembled slightly, it was the fish drift that fluctuated, and Ji Yuan's right hand stuffed the small half of the bun into his mouth and looked at the fish float.

'Is this a fish?'

After looking under the water for a while, Ji Yuan, who was grinning, turned his head to look at the official road on the shore in the distance, where two scholars with bookcases on their backs were walking together.

"Brother Yin, it's all my fault for burdening you, I should have known that it was a scam, but I didn't listen to your advice, now it's okay, the two of us have lost our entanglement......"

One of the scholars sighed all the time.

Yin Zhaoxian is certainly a little depressed, but he is much more free and easy than his companions.

"Okay, Brother Shi, stop blaming yourself, this matter should be eaten and wise!"

"That's what I said, but such a reluctant person would dare to sue the wicked first, if it weren't for Brother Yin's Jizhou Xie Yuan's identity, he would almost have put us in prison, I really can't swallow this breath even if I think about it!"

Yin Zhao tightened the strap of the bookcase first, rubbed his frozen hands and breathed hot air, looking at the person beside him.

"In this case, we must take the test to gain fame, and in the future, we will clear up such cases for the officials, and today's disaster may not be the blessing of others!"

"Reasonable, reasonable, Brother Yin is right!"

The two talked and walked, and after a while, they finally approached the Tongtian River, during which they also talked about whether the remaining little money was enough to take the ferry, and also talked about how many months to take the exam, and how to spend the time in between.

Even Yin Zhaoxian was a little worried, so he could only take one step at a time.

"There's a boatman over there, let's go and ask how far the Champion Ferry is, right?"

"Okay, go over and ask!"

Although the two scholars were tired, they still quickened their pace.

At the bottom of the river, there was a yaksha who wondered why the fisherman didn't lift the rod, was it because he was blind and didn't know that he was on the fish?

His Royal Highness suddenly ordered him to find a fisherman here, and from time to time he would get a big fish for him to hook, and although Yaksha was puzzled, he would not ask much, and just did what he was told.

Just as he was about to change another fish, the fisherman on the boat on the surface of the water suddenly lifted his rod.

Yin Zhaoxian and the scholar surnamed Shi had just arrived at the shore, and before they had time to shout at the awning boat, they saw the fisherman on the boat lifting a rod, causing a big bighead carp with white flowers that looked to be twenty or thirty catties to splash on the river.
