After running the rice shop for so long, Fu Tian has indeed learned a lot, and he also understands the decrees promulgated by Da Chu better.

After the current emperor ascended the throne, many new decrees were related to agriculture and commerce, such as disregarding the division of squares and markets, and keeping the market open at night, all of which were promulgated after the new emperor ascended the throne.

It can be seen from the lines that Xinhuang supports commercial development.

Fu Tian quoted the classics and added some of his own understanding. Before noon, he finished answering the first question.

Putting away the pen, and waiting for the ink to dry, Fu Tian casually wiped his hands on his body, then took out the snacks that Fu Ji had prepared for him, and ate them, while eating, he read the next question.

The time for the main test is only one day. From Chenchu ​​to Youzheng, if the time is slower, it may not be enough. Fu Huang ate the snacks in two or three bites, then drank two sips of water, and picked up the pen to continue answering the questions.

The second question is the same as Fu Tian thought. Xinhuang emphasizes agriculture and commerce. The first question is related to business, and the second question is naturally related to agriculture.

Fu Tian has read a lot of books on agriculture, one is that he himself has read a lot of miscellaneous books, and the other is that Zhou Chuanqing has mainly told him.

Zhou Chuanqing said that the Holy Spirit puts more emphasis on practice and does not like content that sounds good but is empty. Judging from the examination questions in the past two years, there must be the same for "scholars, farmers, businessmen", and "agricultural business" is the most important.

In the last one or two months of preparing for the exam, Zhou Chuanqing focused on telling him many decrees implemented by the ancients, and even analyzed whether these decrees were feasible in the current Great Chu based on the current situation of Great Chu.

Fu Tian sorted out the messy content in his mind, and after thinking about it for a while, he carefully wrote down the pen.

Every stroke was written very carefully, the occasional sound of the examiner's footsteps outside the cubicle, and the sound of the time telling every once in a while.

Fu Tian took the time to finish writing, blew on the paper full of words, and smiled with satisfaction.

Now there is only the last question left to write, two essays and one poem, the essay has been written, and the rest is naturally poetry.

Fu Tian was really not good at composing poems, so he frowned for a while before finally choking out a poem.

After finishing writing, Fu Tian sat upright and waited for the time to come. After a while, there was a clear and crisp gong sound outside, and then a noisy sound came faintly.

When they arrived near Fu Tian, ​​the noise became louder. It seemed that some candidates had not finished their answers and begged the examiner for more time.

The uproar continued for a while, ending with the candidates crying bitterly.

The compartment door on Fu Tian's side was opened, and the examiner's obviously displeased face appeared. Fu Tian took the initiative to hand over the answer sheet, and the examiner's complexion improved a little.

After collecting the answer sheets, Fu Tian was not allowed to go out either. Candidates could only leave the venue after the examiner had collected all the answer sheets and the gong sounded again.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, the gong sounded. Fu Tian picked up his small baggage and walked out with the crowd.

There were a lot of people who went out, and acquaintances crowded together, discussing the exam questions with each other, but Fu Tian didn't have the heart to think about answering the questions, anyway, he had finished writing, and the rest was out of his control.

Looking around for a while, he soon saw his own carriage and Chu Xiangtian outside the carriage.

Struggling to push away the raging crowd, Fu Tian walked toward the carriage panting, but there were too many people and there was no order. Fu Tian took a few steps forward, but was almost pushed in the opposite direction by the people around him.

Chu Xiangtian squinted his eyes and wandered around in the crowd, and when he saw the young master and a thin chick being squeezed around, he strode into the crowd.

He was tall and his face was not easy to get along with. The people in front of him subconsciously avoided him and gave way to a passage.He held Fu Tian, ​​who was too crowded to walk, in his arms, and led him out.

Sitting in the carriage, Fu Tian let out a long breath and muttered, "There are so many people."

Chu Xiangtian tidied up his somewhat messy hair, and said softly, "Let's eat first?"

Fu Tian's stomach grunted at the right time, scratched his face in embarrassment, and nodded slightly.I ate some snacks in the examination room and answered the questions all afternoon. I was really hungry at this time.

After most of the candidates in front had dispersed, Fu Ji drove the carriage to the restaurant.

Along the way, no one asked him how he was doing in the exam. Chu Xiangtian observed his expression, and seeing that he was still relaxed, he guessed that he must be doing pretty well.

When we arrived at the restaurant, the food had already been prepared, and it could be served as soon as people arrived. Fu Tian ate a whole three bowls of rice before he burped.

Chu Xiangtian pursed his lips, held back his smile and pulled him out, "I ate too much, go eat and go back to rest."

Fu Tian blushed a little, because she was too hungry to support herself like this, so Chu Xiangtian led her out without any resistance, and obediently followed him downstairs.

Zhou Chuanqing clicked his tongue twice from behind, his smile was unclear.

Fu Ji chased after two steps, looking at the two figures, one tall and one short, always felt that something was wrong.

After eating, Fu Tian felt a little sleepy, and yawned twice before arriving at the inn. Chu Xiangtian wanted to carry him back, but was rejected by Fu Tian. master.

After returning to the inn, Fu Tian simply washed up and rested first. There was a re-examination tomorrow. He also went to the examination room before dawn, so he had to rest and recharge his batteries.

Chu Xiangtian covered his stomach with a thin blanket, fanned him lightly with a fan as usual, and did not leave until he fell asleep.

Still getting up in the dark the next day, everyone sent Fu Tian to the examination room.

The sky was not yet fully lit, and the big lantern in front of the examination room was still on. Fu Tian hugged his little burden and looked forward.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the distance. It seemed that someone came directly on horseback. The guards didn't know what they saw, but they didn't stop them.

The long line was forced to be cut off in the middle. A man in official uniform on a horse looked around for a while, and then rode his horse towards Fu Tian.

The examinees scattered around, and Fu Tian also subconsciously dispersed to the side. The officer on horseback turned and dismounted in front of Fu Tian, ​​"Wang——"

Fu Huang looked at him in panic, but suddenly stretched out an arm behind him to stop the official who was about to kneel down, Chu Xiangtian looked ugly, and said coldly: "Enough, I will talk about anything later. "

The officer was stunned for a moment, seeing Chu Xiangtian's face swallowed, he answered yes honestly, and then stepped aside.

"Is he here to look for you?" Fu Tian looked a little dazed. He looked at the official who was waiting by the side like a quail, and then looked at Chu Xiangtian with a stern expression. No matter how dull he was, he understood that Chu Xiangtian's identity was not generally.

"Aren't you..." Fu Tian's mind was in chaos, he struggled to organize his words, and was speechless for a while.

Chu Xiangtian sighed. He had imagined many scenarios of confessing his identity to Fu Tian, ​​but he never expected it to be at such a time and occasion.

"It's coming to you soon, take the exam first, and after the exam is over, I'll tell you everything you want to know, okay?"

Rubbing his head, Chu Xiangtian looked at him seriously, his dark eyes were the same as before, hiding a lot of tenderness.

Fu Tian's heart calmed down a little, the examiner in front read his name, Chu Xiangtian patted him on the back, pushed him two steps forward, his voice was still gentle, "It's your turn, don't think about it, I'll tell you when you finish the exam."

Fu Tian hugged his little baggage and walked to the front with an empty mind. The examiner took him to the cubicle and searched him, and gave him a wooden sign, but he was in a daze the whole time. Before entering the examination room, he looked back , beside the carriage, Chu Xiangtian was still standing there, his eyes seemed to be looking at him through the crowd.

The chaotic thoughts calmed down for a while, Fu Tian patted his face and told himself not to think about it, and he would know when he got out of the exam.

After entering the cubicle, Fu Tian tried his best to put aside his erratic thoughts, waited for the examiner to hand out the papers, and concentrated on answering the questions...

Outside the examination room, Fu Tian was gone. Chu Xiangtian didn't hide his anger any more. He looked at the shivering person in front of him with unkind eyes, and his voice was colder than the coldest winter in the north, "What's the matter?"

The official who delivered the letter took out a letter tremblingly from his arms, "The capital... urgently need eight or eight hundred miles."

A wax seal was sealed on the cowhide envelope, and on the red wax seal was an encircling five-clawed golden dragon.Fu Ji's heart was turbulent, and he naturally recognized the five-clawed golden dragon, which was only used by the royal family.

Looking at Chu Xiangtian full of surprise, Chu Xiangtian opened the envelope, and there were only a few words in the letter, but it stated the urgency of the situation.

The two kings will turn against each other and return quickly.

Putting the envelope into his bosom, Chu Xiangtian pushed the messenger away, got on his horse, took out a token from his bosom and threw it back to Zhou Chuanqing before leaving, "Return the token to you, and hand over the canal and the gold mine to you." Now, the capital is in a hurry, I have to go back first."

The horse's hoof was raised and lowered, Chu Xiangtian's eyes were dark, and he hesitated and added, "Help me give Fu Tian a message, saying that I will explain to him when I come back."

After speaking, the horseshoes were like the wind, and they galloped away into the distance like flying.

The second king is the son of a noble concubine. When the first emperor was alive, the noble concubine was quite favored. Coupled with the power of his mother's family, he was once equal to the queen in the palace.

If it wasn't for the empress and he and his elder brother secretly plotting, after the death of the first emperor, it is still unknown who the throne belongs to.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, the imperial concubine was sent to the palace to live up to her old age, while the second prince was left in the capital, under the watchful eye.

But the lineage of the second prince was once supported by the former emperor, and their power should not be underestimated. The emperor knew that they had been plotting secretly, but he couldn't find any evidence, so he could only weaken the power of the lineage of the second prince step by step.

If he hadn't accidentally discovered the gold mine in Nanming County, and he had successfully found evidence to uproot the second prince's lineage, the second prince's lineage would probably not have jumped the wall in such a hurry.
