The Laughing Usa of the Red Chamber

The imperial examinations at this time were not as particular as those of later generations, and some even froze to death in the examination room. The spring was set in April and May, and the weather was just right.

The ink that Shen Yulin wore was ordinary pine-dyed ink, the advantage was that it dries quickly and the ink marks were clear.

This time the test really focuses on military affairs, and the basic test questions are still taken from "Xian Zhan". Although it is a little out of the ordinary, it is not out of the ordinary. Shen Yulin answered it carefully, but he was listening to the next door. The sound of falling to the ground, followed by a dead silence.

With a soft sigh, Shen Yulin finished writing, and shook the copper bell by the wooden window.

Sure enough, an inspector came to check immediately, Shen Yu sorted out a stack of test papers, raised her head and said with a smile: "After answering the first paper, can the students leave here?"

At this time, the examination room was not separate as in the later generations, where they stayed for three days in a row, but divided into three exams, and students answered one test every day, handed in the paper and then left.

Originally, Shen Yulin didn't want to be this early bird, but the guy next door... was really unlucky.

The inspector glanced over the scroll, only to feel that the word was calm, hidden and concealed, and immediately smiled: "It's natural."

As he said that, he collected the test questions, sealed them in the file, stopped the patrol behind him, and opened the fence for Shen Yulin with his own hands.

Shen Yulin cupped his hands with a slight smile, and said: "The brother on the left was a little bit wrong just now, please sir..."

The inspector laughed and said, "You should not ask for words, this is our duty."

Shen Yulin bowed his hands, took the long-awaited Jinxiu, and left.

"This is Xie Yuanlang from Jiangnan..." the inspector muttered, "Could it be that the sooner the file is handed in, the more talented it is?"

He took out another volume of files from his sleeve, and put them together on the wooden tray held by the guard.

I saw the letter on the file: Shandong Jieyuan Tang Yingze.

......

When I left the Degong Courtyard, I saw that there was silence on all sides, and many sedan chairs were parked in the distance.

Shen Yulin scanned briefly, but couldn't find the jade-colored sedan chair when she came, Jinxiu hurriedly said: "Shortly after the young master entered, the Beijing guards blocked the road, and the servant taught them to carry the sedan chair to the end of Erdao Lane on their own initiative. "

Shen Yulin glanced at him, but didn't respond.

The two had just walked a short distance when they heard a clear male voice behind them: "This brother..."

Shen Yulin stamped his feet and turned his head to see that he was a handsome young man in a light blue gown. He was wearing a bright jade crown that was dazzlingly illuminated by the sun, and he had a frivolous smile.

"Brother also just handed in the paper? Would you like to discuss it with me?"

Shen Yulin was about to resign, but the young man said slowly: "My next Tang Yingze..."

Shen Yulin's heart skipped a beat, but she lightly raised her phoenix eyes, and said, "Brother Tang is kind, I appreciate it, but there are really important things at home, let's wait another day."

As he said that, he turned his head and left. Ordinary people would only say that he was arrogant and arrogant. If he was familiar with him, he would definitely be able to see the sign of fleeing from his back.

It's not that he's timid, but that Tang Yingze...

Shen Yulin sat on the right seat in the main hall of Shen's mansion, took two sips of tea to suppress the horror in his heart, what Tang Yingze, it was obviously Ji Yingze!

According to historical records, Ji Yingze, the son of Ji Tianyang, who was under the pseudonym Tang Yingze, attempted to assassinate Jin Gaozu in the imperial examination, and fled to the island, never to be found again.

If he hadn't made the arrogant and frivolous look he had just now, he would really be afraid of showing his flaws.

Ji Yingze... Ji Yingze...

Shen Yulin narrowed his phoenix eyes, and knocked on the back of the chair with his left hand behind his back.

☆☆☆☆☆.

After three consecutive days of the exam, although it was easier than in the previous life, he was still very tired, so Shen Xiang excused him from paying his respects for three days, and Shen Yulin went back to Wutong Courtyard, where he slept with his head covered.

When he woke up, his forehead was sore, and Shen Yulin closed his eyes, only to feel that his mind was full of test questions, which was very heavy.

The new moon was like a hook outside, it was late at night, Shen Yulin didn't bother to call anyone, so he put on his clothes and left the house.

There was no curfew in the Jin Dynasty, and night markets were set up in prosperous places, which were extremely lively. Shen Yulin's heart was not as desolate as it was at the beginning.

Looking for a small tavern, ordering a few home-cooked dishes, listening to the noise around him, he closed his eyes, but only felt that his heart was clear.

The night wind was still cold, Shen Yulin swallowed cold wine, feeling slightly warm in his stomach.

Getting titles on the gold list, becoming an official, working every step of the way, becoming a marquis and worshiping a prime minister, this stolen life will be a repeat of the previous life, right?

Why... I don't see joy, but I am at a loss.

After a pot of today's wine was exhausted, Shen Yulin was already drunk.

Putting down a piece of broken silver, she staggered up, and just walked out of the shop, but bumped into a warm embrace, already limp in drunkenness, Shen Yulin struggled a little, leaned against that person, and did not move.

"This... lord..."

A thin voice came from the ear, Shen Yulin frowned tiredly, and said vaguely: "Shut up...shut up..."

Ji Qian brushed the slightly messy hair of the boy in his arms, glanced at the attendant behind him, and said, "Go back to the house."

As he said that, he picked up Shen Yulin lightly, and walked slowly towards his car.

Li Pingsheng slapped himself on the mouth, "Tell you to talk too much!"

......

The stove was filled with the fragrance of Lengfeng that the eldest princess was accustomed to love, and the quilt was covered with jade warm forging that warmed the tentacles. Shen Yulin rubbed his forehead. If it wasn't for the goose gold embroidered bed curtain, he almost thought he had returned to his previous life.

"Mr. Shen is going to get up?" A respectful old voice sounded, but it was four little maids with their heads bowed and a benevolent old mother.

Shen Yulin frowned, feeling dryness and pain in his throat, and said in a hoarse voice: "Bring water..."

The old mother hurriedly took the teapot from the table, poured half a cup of tea and served it to him.

Although the tea has been brewed, but fortunately it is still warm, Shen Yulin drank a couple of sips, put it down, let a few people tidy up his clothes and hair crown, and then said to the nun: "Yulin was drunk last night, I don't remember clearly, I don't know the master here Where is it, Yulin might as well thank you face to face."

That being said, besides princes and grandchildren, how many other houses can afford Leng Fengxiang and Yu Nuandu to decorate guest rooms?Moreover, since the day he was surnamed Shen, he had been branded with the Yongning Party. Now that he knew his identity, the person who brought him back to the mansion would not think of him other than the King of Yongning.

Sure enough, the mother said with a smile: "This is Yongning Prince's Mansion, Mr. Shen, don't be cautious."

Shen Yulin nodded, and said again: "I don't know what to call the nanny?"

"The old slave's surname is Liu, Mr. Shen can just call the old slave Madam Liu."

Shen Yulin said: "I also ask Nanny Liu to lead the way, and disturb the prince for a night, Yulin should also leave."

Mother Liu smiled and said, "Young master just woke up from a hangover, so you shouldn't move around. There are already meals in the small kitchen. How about some for young master?"

When she said this, it was hard for Shen Yulin to refuse, and said with a smile: "Then I will trouble Mother Liu."

Nanny Liu hurriedly said: "No trouble... no trouble..." As she spoke, it made people clean up.

Probably because the Yongning Queen Mother's family is from a family in the south of the Yangtze River, the meals in the palace tend to be Huaiyang cuisine, which suits Shen Yulin's taste quite well, so he used a few more dishes.

Shen Yulin and Shen Xiang were also there at the time, hindering Ji Qian's presence, Shen Xiang just glanced at him casually, Shen Yulin smiled wryly, and gave him a look of forgiveness.

The corners of Ji Qian's lips twitched slightly, and said, "Sir, you don't have to be so nervous, Yulin has always been steady..."

Shen Xiang sighed: "Only when you raise a child will you know your parents' kindness, no matter how prudent you are, I will still care about him for the rest of my life."

Shen Yulin's heart was shocked, and she just lowered her head in shame.

Ji Qian smiled and said: "I think it's the matter of Chunwei that took a lot of attention. Last night, the Wucheng Bingmasi also arrested many crazy students. In comparison, it is rare to be like Yulin."

Shen Xiang nodded.

Shen Yulin turned her phoenix eyes and glanced at Ji Qian slightly.

Ji Qian seemed to have sensed something, and when he looked down, a slight smile appeared in his black eyes.

Shen Yulin was stunned, and pretended to move his gaze nonchalantly, only to feel his earlobes burning hot.
