How to break into Liaozhai

Wang Rui and He Yunyi played outside for four days. If Wang Rui didn't worry about the test results and couldn't stop playing, he might have to stay for a few more days.

As soon as they entered the door of the inn, the two of them saw Huo Ke sitting in the lobby, trembling like a blind man trying to touch an elephant, he stretched out his hand and said, "But, Wang Rui, you are back?"

Huo Huan, who was sitting next to him, supported his brother's arm, and said as if he was waiting for the old man: "They are the ones who came back."

Wang Rui couldn't understand: "What's the matter?" It was like a tenant farmer meeting the Red Army.

As soon as he made a sound, Huo Ke rushed forward with a look of old tears: "You are back."

What's wrong? !He Yun stood in front of Wang Rui and blocked Huo Ke: "Speak up if you have something to say." Don't rush this way suddenly.

Huo Ke is so excited, looking forward to the stars and the moon finally hoped for him back. He just sent someone to Yizhuang to ask, saying that Ma Xiao's corpse had a faint smell, and the two villains in his eyes were also discussing about the wedding date. met.

At this moment, Wei Xingxian came down from upstairs, saw Wang Rui and the others, and hurriedly jumped down: "You, you are back! Ma Xiao is dead! Huo Ke is blind!"

The two of them went out to play for a few years, and a moth appeared. When He Yun saw that Huo Ke's eyes were covered with a white film, without saying a word, he gestured a few times on his forehead from the air.

Everyone saw two white maggots crawling out from the corners of his eyes, and fell to the ground, writhing and twitching.

"Baby, why did we come out? Hey, I saw you, you are so beautiful in vain and fat."

"I saw you too, sweetheart, you are beautiful too."

Huo Ke rubbed his eyes again at this time, and two white films stuck to the back of his hand, and his eyes were able to see again.

He saw that the maggots on the ground were still talking crooked words, and when they stepped up, they kicked them and crushed them into a pulp.

"It's not too late, go and save Ma Xiao, can you save him?" Huo Ke asked, and said to himself: "Please, please answer yes."

He Yun nodded, and Huo Ke raised his hands excitedly: "It's saved."

But soon He Yunyi poured cold water on him: "But if the soul is locked away, there is nothing I can do."

Wang Ruixin also mentioned it, and urged: "Where is his body, let's go there quickly."

Everyone quickly got into a carriage and went to Yizhuang. As soon as they arrived at the gate, He Yunyi saw Ma Xiao's soul. He was looking forward to the gate of Yizhuang with his sleeves in his sleeves. Seeing He Yunyi and the others, he wiped his sleeves with excitement .

He Yun pretended not to see him, and when he got to Ma Xiao's body, he asked Huo Ke: "What did you do, why did one die and the other injured?"

"Actually, it's not one death and one injury, but one death and multiple injuries." Huo Ke then told what happened that night.

"Oh——" Wang Rui said with a long voice, "I'm just saying, why are Huo Huan and Wei Xingxian all right? It turns out that you guys got revenge for joking around with a powerful person."

Huo Ke clasped his fists together: "I know I'm wrong, I don't dare anymore, if I don't believe you guys saved Ma Xiao, he definitely wouldn't dare either. Is his soul still here?"

At this time, Ma Xiao jumped up and raised his hands, jumping in front of everyone: "I am here, I am here!"

He Yunyi said slowly: "Well, let me think of a way." I don't want to help these apprentices, if I knew this, I should let Huo Ke suffer again.

Ma Xiao wandered back and forth, he didn't know that He Yunyi could see him, and said anxiously: "He Yunyi begs you, you must do something! I passed the Juren exam and I don't want to die."

He Yun was taken aback when he heard the words, how did he know that he was selected?

Ma Xiao continued to rub his forehead and said: "Zhu Erdan said that Huo Huanzhong knew Yuan, and I, Wang Rui and Wei Xingxian all won! I still want to go to Beijing with everyone to catch the exam, I really don't want to die!"

As soon as the words fell, he only felt that his erratic soul was sucked back into his body all of a sudden.

He sat up suddenly, looked at the world around him like a newborn baby, was at a loss for a moment, and exclaimed in surprise: "I'm alive?"

Both Wei Xingxian and the Huo family brothers took a step back in shock from the sudden situation. After making sure that he was alive, they went up and hugged him: "I thought you were really dead!"

Then the three of them moved their noses, smelling something, and slowly let go of their hands.

The stench of corpses was unbearable.

Ma Xiao also heard it himself: "Is there any way to save this body smell?"

"Wash it frequently, and the flesh will lose its taste after it has been nourished." He Yun said.

Ma Xiao is very grateful, and He Yunyi is about to have another parent. If there is no He Yunyi, he will watch his body rot, and his life will be over. After the catastrophe, Yusheng wiped his tears and said: Yi Yi passed the Juren exam and almost died like this."

"How do you know you passed the Juren exam?" Wang Rui asked.

He Yun said with all his heart, that's a good question, that's why he quickly rescued Ma Xiao.

"Zhu Erdan told me that not only me, but also you, Wei Xingxian and Huo Huan were hit, and Huo Huan was still Xie Yuan." Ma Xiao said: "He is now a ghost messenger, so he should not be able to lie."

Wang Rui was ecstatic, and stretched out his hand to hang around He Yunyi's neck: "I've been hit!"

"I understand Yuan?" Huo Huan was stunned, a little unbelievable that he could do so well in the exam.

Huo Ke went up and patted his younger brother on the back: "Our family will do well in this life! Xie Yuan, the ancestral grave is smoking!"

Although I didn't pass the exam, my younger brother passed the exam, so it didn't matter if I passed or not.

Wei Xingxian got the order, but this meeting requires someone to congratulate him, so he shook hands with Ma Xiaojian: "The hard work was not in vain, it finally paid off."

Ma Xiao said with lingering fear: "I have been looking forward to returning to the sun for the past few days. Fortunately, I didn't die, otherwise my hard work will be in vain."

He Yunyi did not participate in the scientific examination, and Wang Rui's joy after passing the examination was the only result he could reap: "I said that if you work so hard, you will definitely pass the examination."

Wang Rui nodded with a smile: "If you pay, you will be rewarded. I only believe in this principle now."

He Yun said with a smile: "This is not natural."

Considering that the environment in Yizhuang was not good, everyone left quickly. Ma Xiao's body was stiff for a few days.

Huo Ke's own eyes were healed, and he didn't forget his unlucky partner. After returning to the inn, he asked He Yunyi to help the blind candidates in Taicheng.

He Yunyi had to make a few gestures in the water basin: "Let's see if they have truly repented. If they have repented, let them wash their eyes with this basin of water."

Huo Ke said: "Being blind for so many days, I must have sincerely repented." He carefully walked out the door with the water basin in his hand.

Wang Rui was interested in the women who punished them: "Who do you think the bride is? Or is she a person?"

"It should be the seventh daughter-in-law of the city god of Rongcheng. She came here to visit relatives, and she was irritated by the nonsensical jokes made by these blind scholars." Talking nonsense, if you don’t say that you are dead, you will be as blind as everyone else at most, and you will not die, and the disaster comes from your mouth, please remember.”

Ma Xiao begged for forgiveness: "Remember it, remember it, don't dare to do it again. From now on, even if there are women on the street who are stripped naked, I will not look at them. I would rather poke my eyes blind than dare to take a second look."

It's not worth it to get addicted to the mouth and eyes but risk your life.

When resting at night, Wang Rui was inexplicably worried again: "Tell me, maybe Ma Xiao heard it wrong. It was me who missed, not Huo Ke."

He Yun smiled lightly: "It's not difficult, just go and confirm it." He hugged Wang Rui and disappeared from the inn.

Unprepared, Wang Rui appeared in the inner curtain of the back hall of the Gongyuan. This place was closed until the admission list was announced, and the marking officials were locked here until the list was released.

All the officials went to rest now, and the marking hall was empty, and several tables formed a large table top covered with huge long scrolls.

Wang Rui walked over and saw by the moonlight that it was on the list.

I've written it, and it's almost time to hang it up.

As soon as He Yun read it from the beginning, it turned out that Huo Huan's name was written on No.1. At this moment, he saw Wang Rui standing at the end of the long scroll, and he asked, "Why did you stand there?"

Wang Rui pouted and pointed at the paper: "I found my name!"

He has self-knowledge and knows that his ranking will not be too high, so he looked from the back to the front with interest, but he didn't expect that he would be so backward, and he would see himself after looking for three names from the bottom.

Therefore, even though he found the name, he felt slightly unhappy and pouted.

As soon as He Yun walked over to take a look, isn't it? No. 90 No. [-] has Wang Rui written on it, and said with a smile: "Don't worry this time, you can't make a mistake if you are on the list, and your hometown is clearly marked."

"The ranking is too low!" People are like this. Before they fail, they look forward to winning, but when they win, they dislike the ranking.

"Hey, this mouth is pouted, it's almost going to the sky." He Yun went up and scraped it, and smiled.

"For this ranking, I will also take the exam when I arrive in the capital. I will definitely not be able to win the Jinshi."

Sure enough, this is the reality in the world. At the beginning, in the dream of Huangliang, it was really a daydream.

Wang Rui glanced at the list, Ma Xiao was a little better than him, just a little bit, 96th, Wei Xingxian was much better, 25th, he may go to the capital for a battle with this ranking, he and Ma Xiao are basically cool up.

"It's still a few months away. I'll tie that old crane to you and review it carefully." He Yun hugged him and comforted him: "Besides, if you don't hit it, you won't hit it. It's not bad to go to the capital for fun. Well, there is plenty of time, at worst, you will be 72 years old like that old ghost."

"An old candidate who is 72 years old and will not grow old, I'm afraid he wants to scare the invigilator to death." Wang Rui said so, but he felt much better after being comforted.

"Then I'll make you older and test him for the rest of his life! If you don't pass the test in 100 years, you can get a new identity and continue the test until the dynasty is exhausted. Let's see who can survive the test."

Wang Rui was amused: "Who wants to take the exam for so long? Let me put it here. I will take the exam this time. If you don't get a Jinshi, you can eat, drink and play while waiting for the Juren to make up the official! Anyway, if you win the Juren, it is enough to enter the county annals. Making a name in history is half the battle.”

"Okay, let's fight, and I'll catch that old crane for you when I get back!"

Wang Rui felt that the bald crane must have sneezed a lot.

Back at the inn, he rolled into He Yunyi's arms, hugging him tightly, feeling extremely at ease: "It's good to have you."

"Hmph, of course, if I treat anyone badly, I have to treat you well." He Yunyi hugged him tightly, nose to nose.

"...I am a soul from another world, and I should be alone here, but now I have many people who I cherish, my parents, my sister, my newborn brother, and friends, and the most important thing is you... And They will only accompany me for a period of life, only you, I know, will accompany me forever... So, really, it's good to have you..."

Wang Rui seldom spoke in a serious manner, and now that he was finished, he was a little awkward, smiled awkwardly, and waited for He Yunyi's reaction.

Although the two of them were already close and couldn't be any closer, at this moment, He Yunyi's heart was still beating like a drum.

He knew that even if he heard him say goodbye a hundred times and a thousand times, it would still be like this.

Unlike Wang Rui, he was willing to say some things bluntly, because that would be too blatant, and it was not his style to say sweet words, he always put it into practice, and made the other party really feel it.

But now, he is willing to make an exception and be straightforward, saying word by word in Wang Rui's ear: "I like you and will always be with you."

Wang Rui pursed his lips and smiled, his eyes reflected his lover's face: "...Me too." Then, he stood up slightly and kissed his lips.

...

Wang Rui peeked at the list, and he lost the joy of looking forward to it on the day the list was released.

As Xie Yuan, Huo Huan was invited by the government as soon as the list was released, and Huo Ke followed him as a family member.

Others ran to look at the list, but it was said that it was too crowded, so they didn't go up, and they all came back in despair, waiting for the announcer to come and tell them.

Candidates who pass the exam can't escape the stalking of the announcer, and when they come to announce the good news, they must reward them with money, and they can't do without a reward.

The congratulations that came first belonged to Wei Xingxian, who reported 25 winners. He was overjoyed and gave a lot of rewards.

Knowing his and Ma Xiao's rankings, Wang Rui waited obediently, and the morning was almost over before the good news came, one with 96 and the other with 98.

Ma Xiao was very happy: "It's really lucky, I almost failed the exam."

Wang Rui found that he had a mentality of being sixty percent lucky, so he couldn't help "reviewing" himself. He should have this mentality, but he actually took the exam seriously and disliked his ranking. It's not as good as Ma Xiao .

As soon as the person who announced the good news left, the owner of the inn ran out to brag about his Fengshui to the diners in the lobby. Among the scholars living here, not only did they get Jieyuan, but they also won three other candidates.

Among other things, the guest room that Xie Yuan lived in will be bought by at least ten times the price three years later.

After bragging with the diners in the lobby, I ran upstairs and dared to buy banquets for the three masters, free of charge.

Wang Rui and the others pushed the boat along the way and sold the boss a favor. However, although the banquet was nominally free of money, the reward was enough to cover consumption.

After they finished celebrating, Huo Huan and Huo Ke came back, how could they be spared, set up a new banquet, and drank again.

Then on the second day and the third day, the celebration continued. I don’t know where the candidates came from, and I forgot whether I recognized them or not. Anyway, someone came to congratulate them, and the table started immediately.

After seven or eight days, it stopped. Those who passed the exam were going to the capital to take the exam, and those who failed the exam wiped away their tears and returned home. They came back three years later, just like Wang Rui did at the beginning.

Wang Rui and the others packed up and went to Beijing, trying to be the first to strike. Not only can they rent a good house, but they can also adapt to the environment, so as not to come back when the exam is approaching, panic and sudden changes.

During the period, Wang Rui asked He Yunyi to take him back home for a while.

The news of his passing the exam had already been delivered to his home, and his father found someone to frame the success report, and hung it in the living room, where all the guests could see it.

Wang Rui couldn't take it anymore, so he stopped posting the 98 candidates and forcibly "removed" them, and promised to give them a Jinshi examination.

But when Wang Rui left, Wang Yongde hung up the good news of being removed from the shelf again, and smiled at his wife who was holding the youngest son: "Hey, our family also has a jury, so I am relieved."

Mrs. Zhao shook her youngest son's arm: "You have to learn from your elder brother and study hard." After finishing speaking, she suddenly realized that Wang Rui didn't study before getting married with He Yunyi, and only improved in the past one or two years, so she Changed his words: "Learn some things from your brother, and don't learn some things."

Like liking men or something.

-

As soon as Wang Rui and the others arrived in the capital and rented a house and settled down, they said to He Yun "aggressively": "Go and catch the crane."

Then He Xian was tied up again.

Crashed, really collapsed, Xianhe said angrily: "Is it over?"

Wang Rui said with a smile: "Who told you to teach well? We have passed the examination, so we have to continue to participate in the examination, so I have to ask you."

The crane cocked its mouth angrily.It seems that if Wang Rui is not sent to the Jinshi seat, it is impossible for him to be free: "You have to study hard!"

The only thing I can do is give it all.

Wang Rui felt that there were still several months to go, and that he still had the possibility to improve, so he got serious.

The crane "lost its freedom", and was just drained of the ink in its belly by these candidates, which was miserable.

Finally, it was almost Chinese New Year, it was temporarily released, but just went out, I don't know what remembered, turned around and invited He Yunyi aside: "I really can't take it anymore, you can't help but see the black air entrenched on Wei Xingxian's head Right? The last time I saw him, I was very concerned about this! Today I can't help it."

"It's a long story, don't worry about it, just pretend you didn't see it, we have our own plans."

As soon as He Yun said that they had a plan, it didn't need to worry about it, and left with fluttering wings.

Everyone was also temporarily relieved from the many days of hard study. When the weather was fine the next day, they all ran out to visit the capital.

Huo Huan and Huo Ke went to the study, Wang Rui and the others walked with Wei Xingxian and the others at first, and then separated as they walked, each went to places of interest.

Wang Rui saw a stall selling clay sculptures of rabbits on the street, with a snow-white face, black eyes, two red cheeks, and a pink three-petal mouth, dressed in red and green, very festive.

He found it interesting, so he asked the stall owner, "What's the name of this toy?"

The stall owner rolled up his sleeves: "You are from out of town, this is Mr. Rabbit, the one in the sky."

A smile surged in Wang Rui's heart: "The one from the Moon Palace?"

"It's the one from Moon Palace." The stall owner pointed to the sky.

Wang Rui immediately took out the copper plate and slapped it on the table: "I bought it, ten here!"

He Yunyi stopped him: "One is enough, why buy ten!" He said to the stall owner, "Just one."

Seeing that the business was gone, the stall owner murmured in disappointment: "Ten is good, perfect, good luck."

Wang Rui said: "That's right, ten here." The next time I see Rabbit God, I will give it to him, let him take it back to the Moon Palace as a gift, and give it to Toad, Chang'e, Wu Gang, it's very good.

The stall owner happily took ten Rabbit Master dolls and wrapped them up for Wang Rui, and left the stall. to his pocket.

Tired of shopping until noon, I found a restaurant, because there was no room in the private room, so I found a place to sit in the lobby.

While waiting for the food, Wang Rui took out a clay sculpture of Master Rabbit to play with, and smiled at He Yun, "This thing is quite exquisitely made, I don't know what the God of Rabbit is doing now, I haven't seen him for a long time. "

"Eighty percent of the time because of the loss of the marriage book was discovered and grounded." He Yun said together: "He, Wu Gang, Chang'e, and Jin Chan happened to make a table of horse tags."

Mahjong is the predecessor of Mahjong.

Thinking about that scene, it seems quite interesting, Wang Rui couldn't help but chuckle.

"Hey, look at that scholar who plays with the rabbit master. He looks really delicate. I think it's likely that he has that hobby. If you are interested, go talk to him. These days, God has allowed it, and the emperor has taken the lead. Why are you so shy? .”

Wang Rui wanted to roll his eyes when he heard it. Although he came out, everyone thought he was a straight man before this. It can be seen that he is good at disguising. How could he be spotted right away when he entered the capital?Could it be that this Rabbit God toy can't be played with?

As soon as He Yun glared at the source of the voice, he saw two men talking to each other on the table not far behind, and seeing He Yun's unfriendly eyes, one of them said: "He has a lover, let's go, let's go. "Throwing down the copper plate, he left in a panic.

Wang Rui put away the Rabbit God toy. He was more interested in what the two people said just now, "the emperor takes the lead".

After eating, we went shopping for a while. It was dark and we returned to the residence. After entering the door, Wang Rui stomped to the brazier to warm up the fire: "It's really cold."

He didn't see anyone else, and was about to ask someone, when Wei Xingxian and Ma Xiao came back.

Ma Xiao was fine, Wei Xingxian looked as if he had been beaten by frost, Wang Ruixin said, is it too cold?

Wei Xingxian said in a low voice: "I won't eat dinner, don't call me." He went into his room.

When he returned to the house, Wang Rui asked Ma Xiao puzzled, "What happened to him?"

Ma Xiao curled his lips: "It was fine at first, but later I heard that the most popular and favored person around the emperor was named Luo Huiqing, and that's how he was. Luo Huiqing... isn't the Luo Huiqing we know?"

"Ninety-nine out of ten."

"Then he is really powerful. I heard that the emperor mobilized many people to build a palace for him. Because he had the same surname as him, the minister of the Ministry of Rites climbed up with relatives and called him uncle, so he entered the cabinet, but was scolded by the courtiers. It's not good, the emperor stepped forward to protect Luo Shangshu and dismissed all those impeached." Ma Xiao said: "It's just a few days ago."

Wang Ruixin said, amazing, this is the concubine.

Ma Xiaodao: "I heard that the emperor still trusts foreign monks and sorcerers, plus he has a male concubine, both the former court and the harem are full of smog. Alas, if this is the case, he will be an official in such a gloomy court if he is a Jinshi. , it’s better to fail the exam.”

He said it as if he could pass the exam, but in fact, he was looking for reasons in advance for his failure in the exam.

"Right now, there are rumors that Luo Huiqing was offered by an evil vassal king. Before, the emperor went to the harem to sleep with a serious concubine. Since he had Luo Huiqing, he was with him all day. The door of the harem was closed. Son, the country is unstable."

Not only the ministers, but also the people of the whole country are watching whether the emperor has children.Ordinary people will turn their faces when they meet the seven aunts and eight aunts and ask why they don't want children. The emperor is stared at, and he really hates it.

Ma Xiao then sighed: "Same-sex love is nothing, just can't have children to make trouble." After finishing speaking, he suddenly realized that there was a couple in front of him. Goodbye." He hurried back to the house.

He Yun looked at Wang Rui with raised eyebrows, and asked with a smile, "Are you upset?"

Wang Rui spread his hands: "What is trouble? Can you eat it?"

He is not an emperor, and he has no throne to inherit.
