The exam question was taken by Qi Yang himself from the emperor's imperial case this morning. For the time being, he has only taken this one, and he has already passed the bright road. After a few days, after Lu Qipei has answered all three exam questions, she will try to send the answer sheet to the emperor again!
As for directly asking Lu Qipei to go to the Gongyuan for reference, there is no need to count on it. First, the time was too short, and Qi Yang couldn't arrange it. Second, the imperial examinations were all passed layer by layer. Now the students who can sit in the tribute courtyard don't know how much hard work they have put in. Qi Yang did not want to blatantly undermine fairness.
The last and most important point, Qi Yang didn't want to leave hidden dangers for the two, so he chose to put everything in the clear.
But these Qi Yang will not explain to Lu Qipei, let alone tell her what the imperial examination means to the two of them... Her concubine is still so soft-hearted, just look at her with expectant eyes, The other side will soon compromise.
Yes, Lu Qipei compromised. Although she had doubts in her heart, she couldn't bear Qi Yang's plea.
Holding his sleeve and studying the ink, Lu Qipei seemed to be calm, but in fact he was thinking about it for a while—this is clearly a question for Chun Wei, what did His Highness ask her to write? To be a shooter? Is she still unable to avoid the fate of taking the exam
But I have never heard that His Highness has such a personal relationship with anyone, and is even willing to take risks for him in the imperial examination!
Thinking about it, Lu Qipei suddenly felt a little sour in his heart, and inadvertently grinded the ink into too thick. She sighed and had to add some water to continue researching, but she also divided her mind into the ink.
After the ink study was finished, Lu Qipei raised his pen and looked at the blank answer sheet, and for a moment thought about perfunctory things.
However, Gao Jie's character made her unable to do something perfunctory after she agreed, even if she was reluctant at this moment.
After pondering for a long time, I finally calmed down and wrote down the pen. I swiped my ink and finished it - redoing the old topic, adding new ideas to the text, not only writing faster, but also better than the article that surprised the examiner at the beginning.
This is what Lu Qipei decided after thinking about it over and over again. If His Highness is really asking for the article for others, then the person who uses her article has to show the talents that can match. Otherwise, Caidian will try to show timidity, and it will only easily expose people's ignorance. And if the other party really has such talent... Then why are you asking her for an article? !
Standing in the courtyard outside the window, Qi Yang didn't know Lu Qipei's full of slander, she just watched the young man in the window scribbling at the desk from a distance, scribbling ink on the paper. Thinking of the amazing talent of the former champion, I don't worry that the article written by the other party will not reach the emperor's eyes.
It's just that under the warm spring sun, the young man's writing is really dazzling...
Qi Yang lost his mind and stood in the courtyard for a long time. Until Zhi Ting came back, she called to her side, "His Royal Highness."
This shout made Qi Yang return to his senses, he first waved his hand to Zhi Ting and made a silent gesture, and then he took the people away. When the two left the courtyard, she asked Zhi Ting, "How's it going?"
Zhi Ting tried her best to keep her face calm, and replied, "What Your Highness has ordered has already been arranged." After speaking, she couldn't help but turn her head, glanced in the direction of the study, and tangled, "But Your Highness, you are like this. ...isn't it good?"
Hearing this, Qi Yang's aura suddenly cooled down. He was no longer the little princess who was smiling and smiling in front of Lu Qipei, nor the soft and gentle appearance that Zhi Ting used to be familiar with. She just glanced at Zhi Ting lightly, and the latter lowered her eyebrows and lowered her head, not daring to say more.
At that moment, Zhi Ting only felt that her heart trembled along with it - sheer fright.
Chunwei really is still a grinding thing. Even though this year is a warm winter, the impact of the weather has been greatly reduced, but the large number of exam questions and the poor conditions in the Gongyuan still squeeze the candidates to exhaustion.
The test is divided into three sessions, which are admission on the ninth, twelfth, and fifteenth days of the first lunar month, and each session is three days and two nights.
After the first exam on the afternoon of the 11th, the gate of the Gongyuan opened, and a group of candidates swarmed out. Some people are staggering, some are in a trance, and some are full of self-satisfaction, but they are very few.
Among such a group of people, Lu Qicheng, who was haggard and disheveled, was not so conspicuous. Carrying his exam basket, he walked out with the crowd in a trance. It seemed that his healthy body had been hollowed out in this exam, making his steps vain.
Raising his head, he looked up at his head, which was full of blackness. One after another, there were shouts calling for his family.
Lu Qicheng felt unwell, and when he was disturbed by this noisy scene, he swayed and nearly fainted. Fortunately, although his little servant hadn't been found yet, there were also good-hearted people around, and when he saw that the candidate was about to faint, he helped him.
The dizziness subsided, Lu Qicheng grabbed the arm that was supporting the man, turned his head and said, "Thank you."
The one who helped him was also a servant boy, wearing a green shirt and a small hat, with a simple and honest face: "You can't be a son, thank you." After saying that, he stared at Lu Qicheng's face carefully and said, "Young master. Your face is not very good, and I am afraid that you will not be able to go back, but have family members come to pick you up?"
Lu Qicheng is always humble and polite in front of outsiders, even if he is only facing a servant, he is still polite: "If you have trouble, I will have my own family to pick it up." After looking around for a while, he was distressed: "It's just that people don't know where they are."
At this moment, the Gongyuan has just opened, and it is more crowded and noisy than when it first entered, and it is really difficult to find people. So the boy hesitated for a while, then glanced at the crowd again, and then said: "There are too many people, and my son doesn't know where he is. I think you can't squeeze out like this, son, why don't I send you first? Go out, find a place with less people and wait for your family."
Lu Qicheng thanked him naturally, and finally squeezed out of the crowd with the help of the servant. The latter didn't stay much longer, and after he informed him, he hurriedly squeezed back into the crowd, and disappeared after a while.
Leaning under a tree beside the road, Lu Qicheng looked at the noisy crowd, but his eyes were cold. Even though he had just been helped, he was not grateful. On the contrary, he felt that the little servant didn't know the importance.
If his little servant dares to do this, he will definitely be severely punished!
Thinking about some things, Lu Qicheng never noticed that the little servant who had disappeared from the crowd calmly hung a square handkerchief on him before he left. Only the color was highlighted by the blue shirt on his body.
After a while, Lu Qicheng's servant finally came. His clothes were so crowded that he even stepped on one of his shoes, as if he had come back from an escape, which made Lu Qicheng dislike it.
However, Lu Qicheng didn't pay attention to him at the moment, and he was about to leave after asking the direction of the carriage.
The boy naturally quickly lifted the test basket and stepped forward to help him, but when Lu Qicheng raised his hand, the handkerchief hanging under his jacket was seen. The servant took it down for him and said strangely, "Master, don't you have a veil of this color?"
The handkerchief is a men's style, but the coral color looks a bit feminine, so Lu Qicheng naturally won't use it. However, it was when he was dizzy right now, and he didn't bother to worry about it. He just thought that he was crowded in the crowd before, and he didn't know who it was from. Disgusted in my heart, I pulled the veil and threw it away, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, quickly help me go back to rest!"
Seeing that his face was haggard, the young servant was even more blue-black now. He didn't dare to say any more, so he hurriedly helped him and left.
The carriage of the Lu Mansion was already waiting, but there were many people outside the Gongyuan, so it stopped a little far. When Lu Qicheng was helped by the servant and climbed into the carriage, he felt as if all his energy had been drained. He didn't even have time to give any extra instructions, so he fell asleep.
This is the norm among candidates, and no one finds it strange. The boy consciously kept silent, and sat on the outside of the carriage with the driver of the carriage. Then, as the driver waved the whip in his hand, the horse also pulled the carriage and kicked away.
The carriage was not in a hurry or slow, it was very stable, and it would not disturb the sleeping people in the car at all.
It wasn't until after crossing two streets and halfway back that the horse, who had been docile and obedient all the way, suddenly became agitated. Then, without waiting for the driver to respond, he suddenly hissed, kicked and ran!
The unsuspecting little servant was thrown off the carriage one by one, and his head was smashed. The coachman was still pulling on the reins, but even though the blood was strangled on his hands, the mad horse was not controlled at all, and still rammed forward. I don't know how many pedestrians were disturbed along the way, and how many stalls were knocked over, and in just a moment, the whole street was in chaos.
Such confusion finally awakened Lu Qicheng. He was not very awake at this time, and he staggered out of the carriage while pressing his head. As soon as he asked "what's the matter", he followed in the footsteps of the previous servant, and fell off the carriage with a flick of his body.
All this is only between lightning and flint. The coachman's face changed greatly in shock, and he could no longer care about the crazy horse, so he jumped off after shouting "Master".
Lu Qicheng fell hard, clutching his injured leg for a while and couldn't get up. The driver who jumped out of the car ran over and crawled, helped him up, and then looked up and almost fainted!
I saw that Lu Qicheng's face was covered with blood, and he didn't know where he hit when he fell off the carriage. A scar was drawn from the corner of his eye all the way to his chin! The dazzling blood accompanied by the ferocious wounds completely destroyed his original handsome appearance.
But at this moment, Lu Qicheng had no time to pay attention to the wound on his face. He only hugged his leg and sweated profusely. After a long while, he shivered and said, "Leg, my leg, broken..."
The author has something to say: Lu Qipei (complacent): My article is better, no matter how better it is, people who are incompetent will not dare to use it!
Qi Yang (with mixed feelings): Okay, you'll be happy... Anyway, I'm pretty happy too.
