021 About Xishan

What He Xuan just said was not to send Jinse. Shortly after Jinse left, Gongyuan opened the door that had been closed.

The moment the door opened, He Xuan was finally liberated from the eyes of everyone, and the students who rushed to the exam focused on the exam again. He Xuan took a long breath and slowly walked into the tribute courtyard with the crowd, and then came to the door of her examination room according to the number plate.

According to the usual practice, candidates should be searched before entering the examination room to prevent them from being pinched. This practice is being carried out now. However, to He Xuan's surprise, the person who searched her did not really touch his clothes with his hands, but just pretended to make a gesture. Just when He Xuan wanted to see who this person was, she suddenly heard the man say behind him, "Please don't forget the appointment of Xishan."

After saying that, the man turned around and left. He Xuan did not see this person's face. He Xuan frowned. It seems that the person who gave herself a question is really not an ordinary person. Even this tribute courtyard can be inserted into people...

After entering the number room, He Xuan sat in her seat and was still thinking about this matter. At this time, something more unexpected happened to He Xuan.

A minister and a eunuch came to her examination institute. Everyone didn't know what had happened. Before the exam began, they wanted to leave the exam number to see what was going on, but they were stopped by the exam number.

The eunuch announced loudly: "It was passed by the emperor's order that Si Tianjian speculated that there was auspiciousness in time, which was two hours later than the time. All candidates were not allowed to leave the examination number, all personnel were on standby, and they were not allowed to leave without intention. Those who violated the order were not respected would be killed. I admire this."

After listening to these words, He Xuan smiled and thought to herself: This matter is getting more and more interesting. It seems that I have to go to this Xishan today.

It's past noon, and Liao Yong walked back and forth in the pavilion in the garden. The exam time should have been over long ago, but He Xuan hasn't come back yet. Liao Yong regretted that he didn't know whether He Xuan let him leave his home by taking the opportunity of the exam because he did too much yesterday.

"Young master!" Xiaodouzi's shout interrupted Liao Yong's thoughts.

"What are you shouting! It scared me. What's going on?

"Young master. It's not that Mr. He hasn't come back, but that he hasn't passed the exam at all. I heard from people outside that I don't know why the time of the exam has been postponed twice. Therefore, the exam will be two hours later than the original time.

After hearing this, Liao Yong slapped his hands with a folding fan and said, "It's not good. There's something wrong."

"Ah?" Xiao Douzi looked at Liao Yong doubtfully.

"Don't! Send someone and go to the prime minister's office to inquire about it.

"Yes." The little bean turned around and ran to the porter.

"Stand," Xiaodouzi was stopped by Liao Yong after running a few steps. Xiaodouzi stood there looking at his young master and only heard Liao Yong say, "No need for others, just go with Yumo and go in person."

"I know, young master." Hearing this, the little bean ran to the front to find Yu Mo.

The two servants rode all the way to the prime minister's mansion without saying a word. In addition to the family who stood at the door in the past, there were more guards wearing official clothes and knives at the door.

Yu Mo originally wanted to come forward to inquire a few words. Xiao Douzi's eyes were sharp. He saw a family member squeezing his eyes and shaking his head like killing them. He quickly got off the horse and grabbed Yu Mo's wrist. The two of them walked slowly from the door of the prime minister's mansion with the same way. .

"What's wrong?" After the corner, Yu Mo asked.

"That Ding made the corners of our eyes, but he didn't let us move forward. Moreover, look, the person standing at the door doesn't look like the Xiang Ye's house."

"I can see that too. However, the errand given by the young master..."

"Didn't you say yesterday that Mr. Zuo was in office today? Otherwise, let's go to the Gongyuan. Even if you don't see anyone, it's still a reply if it's sealed here.

Yu Mo nodded and said to Xiaodouzi with a smile, "Little clever ghost. No wonder the young master likes you so much. Cheng, my brother will listen to you today and walk.

With that, the two little men drove away in the direction of the tribute courtyard.

Put down their left and right to listen and don't mention Zuo Liang's side.

After entering the palace with his father, the emperor listened to Zuo Xiang's report that Longyan was very unhappy. After listening to Zuo Liang's statement, although he was not furious, the wise man suddenly saw his hatred at this time. There is not even a person in the whole hall who dares to breathe loudly.

After a while, the emperor ordered Zuo Liang to take another team of insiders to the examination room to search the candidates again. And he and Zuo discussed another topic again.

Zuo Liang led these attendants to the tribute courtyard in a hurry and checked the courtyard one by one. Sure enough, he found the clip from many candidates. Naturally, these are not abnormal things, but it is not normal for almost 20 or 30 people with entraintment questions. Zuo Liang banned these candidates in one room and sent an attendant to take them to the palace.

Soon, the waiter came back and reported to Zuo Liang in a low voice, saying, "The emperor is really angry this time. Naturally, there was no need to mention the matter that originally wanted to be inspected in person, and the left bodyguard was ordered to lead a strict inspection.

Zuo Liang nodded, and the exam finally began.

Since Zuo Liang came here, he has been worried about whether something will be found from He Xuan, but the result made Zuo Liang feel at ease. When he found He Xuan, not to mention the inclusion, even the pen and ink and other items were provided by the Gongyuan, and she did not even bring a personal object.

When Zuo Liang turned around and returned to He Xuan's yard, he actually saw that He Xuan had handed in the paper and was ready to leave.

"Have you finished answering?" Zuo Liang asked doubtfully.

"Yes." He Xuan said.

"Go back to Liao's house later. Don't go anywhere. I'm afraid I have something to ask you at night." Zuo Liang said.

"There is another place you must go before you go back." He Xuan smiled and didn't explain anything more to Zuo Liang, but turned around and left the tribute courtyard.

This "must go" place is naturally the Xishan Qingping View that the Taoist priest said that day.

Along the way, He Xuan drove quickly and soon arrived at Xishan. However, this Qingping view made her inquire for a long time before finding it. When she got to the outside, she tied the horses outside and walked in.

This place is much smaller than the temple Taoist temple seen on weekdays, and the incense does not seem to be so prosperous. Almost nothing has been traced. There are fallen leaves everywhere in the courtyard, and even Guan Yu himself is a little damaged.

He Xuan put the blade in her sleeve, looked around the situation, and slowly explored it.

Until I got to the main hall, I didn't see anyone at all.

It seems that this trip is in vain. He Xuan thought so and turned around and walked to the gate of the courtyard.

Just as she untied the reins of the horse and was about to leave, she suddenly heard a muffled sound not far away, and then the sound of horses' hoofs. He Xuan looked around. It seemed that this Taoist temple could only go up and down. She led the horse and hid behind the observation wall.

After a while, I really saw a man riding a horse in front of the door with a black veil. Walk down the mountain.

He Xuan also hurriedly got on the horse, but did not go fast. She just quietly followed the man. It was not until she came to the bottom of the mountain that He Xuan speeded up and followed the trace of the man all the way. Immediately when he arrived at the road, the searcher actually threw his clothes and the hat on the roadside. He Xuan did not pick them up, but followed until he came to the downtown in Kyoto. The man got off the horse, and He Xuan also got off the horse, not far away, and followed him in a hurry.

At this time, the man suddenly looked around. I don't know if he felt someone following him. Taking this opportunity, He Xuan barely saw the person's side face clearly, but he was not the Taoist who gave her the question that day. He Xuan thought, is it possible that she followed the wrong person? Is this person also going to the appointment? Although they are a little old, the people who participate in the scientific examination are really old and young, and it is not surprising that they are older. Don't care so much. Anyway, it has been followed here. Let's talk about it first. Seeing where he lived, he arrived before himself, and maybe he would see anyone.

After this section of the road, the man got on the horse again and drove down in a hurry. He Xuan also turned over the horse, but she did not dare to go too fast and shocked the man. Fortunately, there seems to be no fork in here, and He Xuan can still keep up.

Until under a high wall, the man got off his horse and whispered a few words to a young man. After the young man gave the man a package of things, he showed his waist card and then walked into the high wall. The one that He Xuan had been staring at took something and continued to walk east along the high wall.

He Xuan has to continue to keep up, but... She paid attention to her surroundings. Where is this? I just followed, and I don't even remember the road.

Although Hexuan in Kyoto has been here many times, it has been here since the future. Looking at the sergeant's clothes guarding the door, she suddenly felt shocked. Is this...

At this moment, He Xuan suddenly heard a sergeant shouting at herself: "Who is it? What's the crime if you come outside the forbidden garden?

He Xuan hurriedly disembed her horse, arched her hand, and said softly with Wu Nong, who was taught to her by her master, "Brother Sergeant, I entered Beijing for the first time to take the exam, and I was fascinated by the direction after the exam..."

"You are so far away that you have run to the foot of the imperial city. It's really hard for you. You didn't get lost when you went to Beijing.

The sergeant listened to He Xuan's accent, took her words seriously, and said jokingly.

He Xuan pretended to smile awkwardly and said, "I live in that... Shengyi Building. I don't know if the sergeant can give me some advice.

With that, he also took out two pieces of silver from the coat of the horse and handed them to the two sergeants.

"Follow this road and keep moving forward to the downtown. Let's ask about it when we get there."

One of the sergeants took the silver, and then pointed to the direction when He Xuan came with a sarcastic smile. He Xuan hurriedly thanked him, and then led the horse to walk in the direction of "Idle Court Residence".
