Datang Fenghua Road

It's late autumn now, and winter is coming soon.

In the severe winter, she lacked food and clothing, and Wu Zhao shivered again subconsciously after hearing the suffering she had suffered in the past two years.

At this time, someone shouted loudly at the entrance of the college, and the voice rolled: "All students taking the test, please stay in your footsteps..."

Wu Zhao was slightly startled, and the students also raised their heads.

But seeing that the person in charge of the entrance of the examination field was a small official, with a level similar to the mayor who organized the township examination in various parts of the Tang Dynasty, he stood on the doorstep with his hands down, and said loudly again: "I said before the examination that King Zhao has a reward. Now, all the students who take part in the imperial examination will be rewarded with [-] copper coins, and three days of free food and lodging will be provided, so that everyone can wait for the announcement of the rankings, come here and send them coins."

"Send copper coins, really send copper coins?" The students were obviously startled again, and then there was a burst of strong cheers.

Wu Zhao was also stunned, but she soon saw someone driving a few Nuo ox carts loaded with copper coins, followed by dozens of soldiers in jingle armor, but there were two before the soldiers. The scribe holds the register.

This is really a reward for money!

Although he failed in the imperial examinations, Han Yue thought of the difficulty of going out for the underprivileged children. Those who passed the test needed to go to the government, and those who landed needed to return to their hometowns. Whether they passed the test or landed, there were always complaints on the way.

This thousand coins is Han Yue's help to everyone.

There is a lot of money, and the official rule is consistent. If converted according to the method of hanging 200, it is actually equivalent to more than [-] Wen consistently.This money is enough for a young scholar to eat for three months, and he is not afraid of freezing to death and starving to death on the road.

There are hundreds of students in the training field here, but the soldiers are sending money faster, the copper coins on several Nuo ox carts are rapidly decreasing, and Wu Zhao also received a thousand copper coins with a blank expression.

Then the man at the door shouted again, and continued: "I will pass on the order of King Zhao again, and give generous gifts to the imperial examination scholars. Those who take part in the township examination today will be given a winter cotton coat and a guide for walking, no matter where they go to stay and live. , all can enjoy the treatment of imperial examination scholars..."

After saying this, he paused for a moment, then smiled again: "However, this scholar's treatment can only last for three months. After three months, those who fail will automatically cancel this treatment. If you want to enjoy the support and respect of the Great Tang, everyone should go back and work hard and study again. Bar!"

As for the passers, he did not say, because the passers will be given new treatment at that time.

Not far from the field, another ox cart came. This time, it was loaded with brand new winter cotton-padded clothes. Someone read Wu Zhao's name and sent it. The cotton-padded collar felt very soft in his hand.

"Is this a generous gift from that person? Even the poor one should give money and clothes. No wonder some people say that he is a living sage, and he really doesn't want a poor son to freeze to death and starve to death..."

For some reason, a thought flashed through Wu Zhao's mind.

Since she was a woman disguised as a man, she did not dare to communicate too much with the enthusiastic scholars around her. The girl held the cotton-padded coat and collected the coins, then carefully found a corner to stand and meditate.

She knew that she would probably not pass the test, but she still had some extravagant hopes. She wanted to find a place to stay nearby and wait for the results of the rural test three days later.

"Maybe, I can get in too."

Wu Zhao's bright eyes flickered a few times, and suddenly a strong desire developed in his heart, and he muttered to himself: "As long as you pass the provincial imperial examination, you can participate in the higher-level government examination, and then you will be a scholar in the imperial examination. ."

Wu Zhao is not the only one who has this idea. Many students who know that they are not performing well are also like this. Not only in this field, but in fact, the world is the same.

People are always hungry.

With the status of a scholar, it will be fine even if he fails the mid-dao test again. The scholar can already do something, and there will be town officials who will come to ask for it.

Then find a small job to do, or sign up to teach in Zhenzi Elementary School, in a word, there will be no hunger and cold again, and life will be different from now on.

Wu Zhao doesn't expect that she can pass the exams and become the champion at every level. People will think about what kind of things at any level of life. What she wants to solve most now is hunger and cold, and she doesn't want to walk down the street like the previous two years. begging...

"This little brother, this little brother!"

Suddenly someone shouted softly not far away, and the voice was obviously cautious.

Wu Zhao was stunned for a while, and finally realized that the other party was calling him.The man called softly and waved to her with a friendly face.

She subconsciously hugged the padded coat tightly, and then walked over slowly with vigilance.

Seeing Wu Zhao approaching, the man hurriedly bowed and bowed in a salute. It was obvious that Wu Zhao's clothes were tattered and destitute, but there was a trace of indescribable gratification in his words.

Just like those two little gentlemen, Wu Zhao couldn't help but move.Obviously he looks down and out, why is this person so humble and humble?

The so-called politeness requires people to ask for something, but the request also depends on the ability of the person who asks. A situation like myself is obviously not an existence that others can ask for, so there are obviously some problems here.

Chapter 749 Someone Kicked Over Han Yue's Stand

Only to hear this person ask her again: "This little brother, can you tell me your name?"

Seeing that he was frowning slightly, he hastily explained again, saying: "I don't have any other intentions, I just want to ask you to call you, I can't always call you little brother, little brother, neither Respect is also inconvenient..."

He kept rubbing his big hands as he spoke, apparently with a bit of panic in his heart.

Wu Zhao suddenly noticed that the man's palm was very thick.

She subconsciously took two steps back, and asked cautiously, "Could it be that you are from Bashu?"

The reason why he asked this question was because he suspected that this person was the subordinate of the two older brothers. After all, this person had thick palms and calluses. At first glance, he looked like a strong warrior with martial arts.

The military achievements of the Tang Dynasty were very strong, and people with martial arts were generally paid very high, but this man treated him with a bow and bow. Wu Zhao had to suspect that he was sent by his two brothers to arrest people.

But the man was obviously stunned, then shook his head in confusion and said, "Ba Shu? That's quite far! Why does my little brother ask this question, the villain is a down-to-earth person from Guanlong..."

"is it?"

Wu Zhao's eyes flickered a few times, and he pretended to be puzzled and said, "Since you are from Guanlong, your accent doesn't sound like Chang'an. Instead, there is a... um... an indescribable strange smell. I used to I've never been exposed to such a tone!"

The man snorted and said with a shy smile: "Don't be surprised, little brother, the villain has been in the northeast for too long. We have been stationed there for ten years, and we didn't return to Chang'an until the beginning of the month. Because I lived in the northeast for too long, I don't even have an accent..."

He suddenly cupped his hands again, and asked cautiously: "Brother, may I ask your name, Gao, a villain can't always call you brother, it's neither respectful nor convenient."

This time Wu Zhao didn't hesitate any longer, and suddenly smiled lightly and said, "My surname is Wu, and my childhood name is Mingyue..."

She was supposed to introduce herself solemnly, but the face of the person on the other side suddenly changed. He put out his hand and covered his ears, and said in a hurry, "The villain knows that your surname is Wu Biancheng. As for the rest, I haven't heard at all."

Others are likely to refer to Wu Zhao's childhood name.

After this person asked Qing Wu Zhao's name, he seemed to have completed an extremely important task. He suddenly took out a few pieces of silver from his arms and put it on the cotton coat that Wu Zhao was holding, and then turned around in a hurry and left.

Before leaving, he did not forget to please, and whispered: "There are inns everywhere in Chang'an City, Mr. Wu family might as well find a place to stay first, if there is a shortage of money, you can find any inn. The guy said it, within half an hour, the villain will show up to give money..."

Wu Zhao was stunned for a while, stood in the corner and watched the man leave, suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he blurted out subconsciously: "Are you his subordinate?"

She was fine if she didn't ask, but when she asked, she saw the man fled away, panicked like a lost dog, and seemed to be extremely frightened, and said hurriedly: "Mr. Wu family, don't make random guesses, the villain is not, the villain is not..."

He ran away in a blink of an eye, and disappeared without a trace.

Only Wu Zhao was left standing in the corner, and she suddenly felt that her guess might be wrong.

That king acted like a vast sun, even if he found out that he was a woman, he would not do such covert things. Even if he had a purpose in his heart, he would come forward in person.

I will never send someone to inquire about my own background.

The truth is as Wu Zhao guessed!

However, he said that the man ran away all the way, and appeared in a remote corner of Chang'an not long after. At this time, the fear on his face had disappeared, but his eyes showed infinite resentment and hatred.
