"Yes. ”

Xia Xun replied without thinking: "But revenge can't be avenged like this." ”

"Isn't it all revenge? Why can't you take revenge like this?" Bai Xiu asked.

"Uh..."Xia Xun scratched his nose and smiled embarrassedly and said meaningfully: "Because she only stabbed me once and didn't spit on me, it stands to reason that I can only stab him once, and I can't spit on her." ”

"I'm dizzy..."

Bai Xiu suddenly rolled her eyes: "You are really a tendon." ”

Tenglan, who was standing next to Bai Xiu, stretched out her hand funny, brushed her long white hair, and said, "This is not called a tendon, this is called the principle of national soldiers." But all the countrymen disdain the conspiracy, not to mention that Yu Youran can be his current rival?"

Bai Xiu disagreed, and pouted: "To put it bluntly, it's still a tendon." ”

"Hehe..."

Xia Xun smiled again: "Then you can treat me as a tendon, anyway, don't interfere in my grievances with her." ”

"You like her, don't you?"

"Ahem, ahem!"

Bai Xiu suddenly said something coldly, and immediately stunned others, and Xia Xun was even more choked and coughed. But without waiting for others to speak, Bai Xiu shook his head and vetoed his thoughts: "It's impossible to think about it." Uncle Peony is so beautiful and smart, but that crazy woman is so ugly that she doesn't even dare to see anyone, I don't think you will be so hungry, right?"

"Ahem..."

The cough was still there, and Xia Xun was speechless.

He couldn't figure out how Bai Xiu's head melon pulled these messy things together, and he was able to jump directly from grievances to love, and the thinking span was so large that even Xia Xun was far from it when he was scheming.

"What's going on in your head?"

"Yo, don't even think about it?"

“......”

Time passes between gossip.

The clouds cleared, and the morning sun climbed up the treetops.

Many gray-robed Hanlin Confucians gradually walked out of the inner courtyard and entered the examination room, including dozens of priests in white-robed sacrificial robes and a red-robed shaman. The white-clothed priest who walked to the west couldn't help but glare at Xia Xun fiercely when he saw Xia Xun, but he didn't cause much trouble. Soon after, the first bell of the national examination sounded clearly from the roof of the main hall of the Hanlin Academy. The candidates scattered around then moved and walked into the examination room one after another, returning to their own positions. Xia Xun and his entourage are the same, the difference is only that the invigilators on the high platform cast different eyes on them, and they paid more attention.

Xia Xun glanced at Yu Youran when he passed by, because of the cover of the hat, he couldn't see Yu Youran's expression clearly, so he didn't have a conversation, and sat down in his place when he passed by. The two people in front and behind were only separated by a screen, and they did not speak to each other, as if passers-by did not know each other.

For about half a moment, the candidates were basically seated, and the sound of the examination room gradually decreased for several miles, and finally there was no sound. The invigilators of the Hanlin Academy in gray robes first walked down the high platform and entered the examination room in separate rows, carefully confirming the identity and belongings of each candidate from beginning to end. Pen, ink, paper, and inkstones that are not equipped in the examination room will be confiscated, even embroidered manuscripts or paper fans are no exception, and pets are certainly not allowed...

"Giggle..."

"What are you doing!?"

"In the national test, except for clothing accessories, you are not allowed to carry, and your pet needs to be taken away temporarily. ”

"Can pigs cheat?"

Su Jing was suddenly scolded by the noise, and Xia Xun was in trouble again.

The reason started when the invigilator wanted to take away Bai Xiu's funny little white pig, how could he be presumptuous with Bai Xiu's temperament? So that the two immediately argued...

Inspecting the white embroidery column was an old Confucian with yellow skin and a solemn face, and looking at his neat gray robe and straight standing posture, it was not necessary to look closely to know that he was a man with eyes that could not tolerate sand.

Bai Xiu hugged the white pig tightly, and Lao Ru didn't want to argue with her too much, so he reached out and grabbed it...

Bai Xiu suddenly became anxious: "Bold! what do you want to do?"

"The old man's duty is to hand over the pig quickly. ”

"If you dare to touch me, I'll tell my mother, I'll take you first!"

"Uh..."

Lao Ru obviously knew the identity of Bai Xiu, and stopped when he heard the words.

Although his attitude was a little jealous, he didn't mean to give up, just thinking about how to take the pig. At this time, on the high platform in the center of the examination room, the two chief examiners sitting on the tiger case saw the commotion and exchanged a few words with each other, and then the long-haired middle-aged man in the gray robe picked up the green bamboo slips on the case and walked down from the high platform arm-in-arm.

The person who came was an acquaintance, the deputy head of the Heavenly Pavilion, and now the head of the Hanlin Academy-Yu Guanchuan.

He hurriedly walked into the examination room, came to the front of the Bai Xiu Pavilion, glanced at the invigilator who couldn't hold each other, and then looked at Bai Xiu with a smile and said, "Xiao Xiu, how about giving Uncle Shi a face?"

"Hmph..."Bai Xiu snorted and raised his eyes to the sky, and decisively refused: "I won't give it." ”

"Huh. ”

Yu Guanchuan laughed: "Today is the national exam, there are rules, but you are not allowed to come nonsense." I see that you still leave the white jade to me to take care of. lest you look bad later. ”

"Da Da Da..."

At the same time as Yu Guanchuan spoke, the guards with knives guarding the periphery of the examination room quickly walked over and saw that the posture was to be both soft and hard. Seeing the guards coming around, Bai Xiu suddenly lost his temper. Although she is arrogant, she is not presumptuous.

Silver Fang gritted his teeth and muttered, "Traitor!"

Yu Guanchuan didn't have the same knowledge as her, rolled up his sleeves, raised the screen with one hand, and said with a smile: "Whatever you say, give it to me, Uncle Shi just has some vegetables and fruits to feed it." ”

The white embroidery is no way, sweeping the eyes of the guards surrounded by the side, knowing that there is nothing to do, so he has to reluctantly take the little white pig out of his arms and hand it to Yu Guanchuan: "Hmph, if it is missing a hair, I only ask you." Putting aside the cruel words, Bai Xiu still didn't forget to scold the two words again: "Traitor!"

Yu Guanchuan took the little white pig and held it in his arms, gently stroked its back fluff with his empty hand, didn't say more, left a light smile and turned away.

"Yu Yuanzheng. ”

“......”

It's just that Yu Guanchuan hasn't taken two steps yet, and the old man who is invigilating on the side shouts out his steps again.

Yu Guanchuan turned his face slightly: "What's the matter?"

The old Confucian envoy pointed to the four pavilions in front of and behind Bai Xiu, and said softly: "Their seats seem to have been tampered with. ”

Yu Guanchuan disagreed: "Maybe it's a coincidence." ”

The old Confucian cushioned his sleeves and solemnly said: "According to the laws of the national examination, fellow villagers should be separated by seventy zhang, and the old man still means to reassign their positions to show the fairness of the examination room." ”

“......”

Bai Xiu, Xia Xun, Wu Teng, and Wu Lan immediately raised their eyelids when they heard this, but before they could object, Yu Guanchuan waved his hand and said first: "No need, the time for the exam is approaching, there is no possibility of fraud with a screen to cover it, you can pay more attention later." As he spoke, Yu Guanchuan's words changed suddenly, glanced at Xia Xun who was sitting in the white embroidery left pavilion, and said with a yin smile: "The handwriting is very good, I hope your scroll can be just as good." After that, Yu Guanchuan didn't give Zai Lao Ru a chance to speak, started arm in arm, and slowly walked back towards the central high platform with the white pig in his arms.

“......”

Shangguan had already made up his mind, and Lao Ru, who was the invigilator of the lower official, didn't want to say more, and after carefully inspecting the belongings of several people near Baixiu, he continued to patrol down.

A small episode didn't bring much turmoil here, but it only made the nearby candidates who didn't know the truth secretly surprised. After all, in history, there are really few people who dare to confront the Hanlin Academy in public on the national examination without being kicked out of the examination room...

The warm sun dispels the cold, the gray clouds go away, and the sun shines.

Yu Guanchuan walked back to the high platform with the little white pig in his arms. The examination room returned to peace for several miles, and no one said anything, except that the birds in the mountains and forests in the distance still chirped occasionally regardless of the times. Mountain streams and rocks, waterfalls pouring down, streams and pine forests, flowing water and lotus ponds. Like ribbons of long hair, like wisps of light smoke, the emerald green towering trees blow in the wind, and the salsa sounds softly. The courtyard of the valley, the layers of pavilions, the seats of several miles are clear and orderly, forming a solemn landscape painting.

"Boom, boom. ”

The dark blue sky enveloped the earth, and with the loud sound of the bell ringing again, dozens of white-clothed priests climbed high chairs one after another and sat down, looking down on thousands of students condescendingly like law-abiding gods. At the end of the day, a long ribbon of golden crimson light pierced the sky. Hundreds of invigilators took out the examination papers from the main hall of the Hanlin Academy, opened them one by one on the high platform, and then distributed them rigorously.

So far...

The decaden-year Datang National Examination officially kicked off.

The exam papers were issued, and the atmosphere was even more solemn.

Candidates mark the papers, sit in danger and put pen to paper one after another.

The examiner was solemn, and one person and one column slowly inspected back and forth.

The examination room was strict and silent, and only the pen faintly scratched the rolling paper. In the center of the examination room, on the high platform, the funny little white pig didn't seem to feel the solemnity at all. Lying on the desk casually, nibbling on the green apples on the porcelain plate, and from time to time he let out two comfortable burps.

"This is the little pig of the Dancer Holy Ancestor back then, right?"

On the high platform, sitting side by side with Yu Guanchuan was an old man in a dark red sacrificial robe, with gray hair that could not cover his sideburns, and his face covered with wind and frost was engraved with wrinkles left by the years. Only those gentle and wise eyes still shine sharply. If there is no accident, this person should be one of the four protectors of the Tower of Babel. As for who it is, it is not yet known.

"Exactly. ”

"I don't want a pig to live for a hundred years. ”

"It's only three years old..."

Yu Guanchuan caressed the back of the little white pig with one hand, held the Danfeng Chaoyang porcelain cup with the other, and said softly: "If I remember correctly, this should be the ninth life of his nirvana." ”

The old man in red nodded noncommittally, and said softly: "Ten years and one reincarnation, it should be about the same." It's just that you took her pig, aren't you afraid that the lady in the palace will blame?"

Yu Guanchuan shook his head and said lightly: "Rules are rules, I have allowed her to change to Fang Yuan to do her best, and the rest of the rules can not be changed." Besides, it's just a pet. ”

"But this little pig can help her a lot. ”

"......" Yu Guanchuan no longer answered.

The old man in red smiled meaningfully, and changed his tone slightly: "I heard that she is not outstanding in her homework in asking the sky. ”

"Well, it's not outstanding. ”

Yu Guanchuan seemed to recall the past, and his expression was a little lonely: "Her mind is not in her homework, and it is difficult to excel." It's just that Renxuan and I look at Yueyang City's face every time, and reluctantly give her a review. A few days ago, the lady in the palace wanted to send her to Hanlin to study, but she hadn't been here since I took office, and she hated me. ”

The old man in red looked at the south side of the examination room casually. Among the candidates who are struggling to write straight, the purple-clothed shadow who is biting the pen and looking at the sky and doing nothing is particularly conspicuous.

The old man smiled: "Then she must hate you even more now." ”

Yu Guanchuan also looked at it and said with the same smile: "Maybe." ”

"If you don't change the rules here, I'm afraid she'll have to do a mess this time. ”

"That's not going to be..."

“......”
