Chapter 85 Behind the Scenes

The carriage stopped steadily in front of the Jiqing Building. The little man lifted the curtain and respectfully invited the people in the car. He Yu reached out and stopped Yang Yanzhao, who were talking about the solution, and jumped down with a smile.

"Two brothers, although the younger brother did not participate in the scientific examination, it is generally clear all the way. When he released the list every day, the two must be on the list. At this moment, let's put aside this test for the time being. How about you and I go in and have a good drink?"

He Yu said so. Yang Yanzhao and Zhang Qian got out of the car with a smile. As he walked into the restaurant, before it was time to eat, there was still a lot of voices in the hall of Jiqing Tower. The figure of the running in the hall shuttled between the tables, but climbed up the antique wooden ladder, but it seemed to be quiet.

"Brother's idea is really wonderful. Now if this hall hadn't come for an hour or two in the morning, there would be no room at all, and this Manshan Pavilion and the heaven and the world are not two days in advance, and they will definitely not be ranked."

As he walked, He Yu introduced happily. Zhang Qian couldn't help shrugging his shoulders. "As you say, my uncle and I can't eat food today. We didn't make the reservation you said a few days ago."

He Yu laughed and ignored Zhang Qian's jokes, "Brother Qiu Bai, who said that we didn't make an appointment? On the day you went to take the exam, I had already set up the elegant room. I must have prepared the wine and dishes, just wait for the two brothers to enter the table."

Talking and laughing, He Yu pushed open the mahogany door engraved with the big red peony between the 'A' and made a gesture of invitation. Yang Yanzhao smiled and pulled the exhaust wind to take the lead in.

Although he designed the world on the third floor, he really hasn't really looked at it. This 'A' is the first of the twelve branches, so it is the best one in front of him.

The incense burner is smoky, and several pairs of landscape paintings and poems are hung in the wall. The screen embroidered with the lady's picture is covered with ink bamboo and the current blooming autumn chrysanthemums. The hollow window sill is beautiful and exquisite, which can't cover the bustling environment outside the window.

A small round table is close to the window sill, with dozens of dishes with full flavor and taste, and the dishes with a faint green light. If you look carefully, they are all made of jade.

He Yu went forward and turned the round table, and the dishes were arranged around the table. This strange design is refreshing. As he said before, this is the only one in the world.

Sitting on the simple and fragrant mahogany chair, Zhang Qian sighed slowly, "No wonder all the officials and gentry of the prefectures are competing to come to the Jiqing Tower, proud of a heaven and the world. This is indeed a rare place to see in the world."

"Brother Qiu Bai, I just follow my brother's instructions. Every place to eat is just a place that can't climb up to the hall of elegance, but if it is turned into an elegant thing, those vassals and elegant people will definitely flock to it."

Zhang Qian nod undeniably, but then looked at He Yu with resentment, "Are you saying that my little uncle and I are elegant?"

He Yu, who poured the jade glass full of wine in front of the three people, hurriedly accompanied him, and then raised the clear and green cup, "Two brothers, He Jinxi has always been dry, but today I am happy to celebrate for my brother and Brother Qiu Bai in advance. Come on, I will do it first!"

After saying that, He Yu drank all the wine in the glass. Perhaps it was his first time to drink, he suddenly blushed and thickened his neck, covered his mouth and coughed violently.

Seeing him this time, although Yang Yanzhao had a shadow of wine in his heart, he still raised his glass and drank it with a smile. In this way, Zhang Qian naturally would not lag behind. Soon, he coughed with He Yu.

This meal lasted until the moon sprinkled water. He Yu had already slept unconsciously on the board. Zhang Qian lay on the table with his cheeks flushed, and he didn't know what was going on.

In the room, only the exhaust wind was awake alone, and some looked at Yang Yanzhao, who was half shaking his head, and the other two people who were completely drunk.

"Exhaust, let's go home." When she was worried, Yang Yanzhao called softly, and then got up to walk out.

"Sir, slow down," Pai Feng hurried forward to help him, and later pointed to He Yu behind him, "Sir, what should Brother Zhang and Brother He do?"

"Wait to talk to the shopkeeper, and someone will take care of them."

Out of Jiqing Building, when the evening wind blew, Yang Yanzhao felt a little comfortable with his dizzy head. He pulled his arm back from the wind's hand, sat in the carriage arranged by the shopkeeper to find the little man, and staggered towards the small courtyard.

When he got home, Yang Yanzhao washed his face and fell asleep. The exhaust wind covered Bo Yu for him, and went to Aunt Zhang, where the light was still on next door, to tell him.

After returning to the house, he thought that the prince might wake up at night or feel thirsty, so he boiled the pot of water, pressed down the firewood flame in the hall, and slowly released the heat.

Put the teapot in the room. After finishing this, the exhaust wind moved a chair and sat by Yang Yanzhao's bed. He squinted his eyes and began to take a nap.

When Yang Yanzhao and others were falling asleep, the room set up as the examination room in the Buddhist temple had been restored to its original state, but in several slightly larger rooms, the lights were bright.

Wait a minute, the figure shook and was extremely busy. Although the whole prefecture was already in the north, there were many scholars who came to the department. In addition, the subjects they participated in were different, so the solution was over, and the busyness of the examiners and others had just begun.

"Your Excellency Shangguan, do you have a good talent?"

Xia Yuzhi, with a round face, asked Shangguan Yun, who was meticulously, while drinking tea, and then whispered to the other examiners who were marking papers, "All of you still need to be careful. Don't bury your pen and live up to the expectations of the officials."

Hearing this, the rest of the people, including Shangguan Yun, nodded one after another, and Xia Yuzhi, who sat in the first place, put down the tea cup in his hand and took out a test question. "Guys, this is a relatively outstanding person in my opinion. There is no fault with talent and family background. Several adults might as well take a look."

Shangguan Yun, who was reading the paper, couldn't help but frown. Although the officials and the court wanted to know the results of the examination of the state and government earlier, did such an important thing make a judgment before reading half of the answers?

Take over and take a look at it. Although the text has some muscles and bones, it seems to be imitating the body of the Yan family, but after all, there is less divineness. The scriptures and Mo volunteers are neat and there are fewer mistakes, but the poetry and policy theory obviously do not reach the superior.

He glanced at the exam surname. Dong Yanmao, Qingping, Fuzhou, suddenly flashed a man in his mind. Dong Zhongju, the servant of the Ministry of Ceremonies, seemed to be a native of Qingping County, and he was also the examiner of Xia Yuzhi in that year.

At that time, the official family had not set up a palace examination, so Xia Yuzhi was a student of Dong Zhongju. In recent years, he has been able to quietly mix with Yuanwailang. I'm afraid there is also this relationship.

Thinking of the advice of his teacher when he first came to Fuzhou, Shangguan Yun couldn't help coughing. In a moment, he heard a corner of the room. Someone took out a stack of test questions, "Lord Xia, Xiaguan also happens to have a very talented student. Please take a look at it."

The man said that he asked Xia Yuzhi to read the paper, but he handed over the hand of another examiner leaning in front of him. The test questions had been passed by several people, and the people who passed by couldn't help looking at it a few times. When he got to Shangguan Yun's hand, he even took a few scans.

Xia Yuzhi still had a smile on his face, but his face was a little **. He took over the test questions handed over by Shangguan Yun, "Lord Pan has read countless classics. Since he can be looked at by you, it is naturally extraordinary."

The school scholar naturally reads countless classics. The people in the room have heard the meaning of Xia Yu's words, but the people in that corner are neither humble nor arrogant. They sit calmly. "Lord Xia is too modest. The court opens a scholar, and the subordinates are favored by the officials. Of course, they should do their duty and not humiliate their mission."

No longer making a sound, Xia Yuzhi looked at the test questions in his hand. The font and answer were obviously better than Dong Yanmao. If this test question was found by him, Xia Yuzhi was sure to hide it underwater, but now everyone has seen it, and it is clear at a glance.

There is some anger in his heart, but Pan Jin is a famous dull scholar. Otherwise, he has been on the Jinshi list for three or five years, and he is still just a small scholar from the eighth grade school.

That's all. Fortunately, Dong Yanmao is a little talented. It's not difficult to enter the province, and it's not a betrayal of the teacher's trust.

Putting down the test questions in his hand, Xia Yuzhi sighed, "This Qiu Baiguo is really a rare talent. Lord Pan's eyes are like a torch. Let's find this kind of young talent for me again."

After listening to this sentence, Shangguan Yun's heart was relieved a lot. The rice paper in his hand was moved away, and at the bottom was a beautiful little character with excellent muscles and bones that he could not compare with.

He has seen an imitation of the word in his teacher's family, and this person's name has also been mentioned by his teacher. He has read the answer to the test questions carefully for a long time, and it is definitely a superior work.

Although I don't understand why the son of Yang Ye of this generation came to Fuzhou, people who can play with the Northern Han Dynasty in applause will definitely go straight up in the future. Therefore, the teacher takes a fancy to this person. As a disciple, he must do his best.

Put this test question at the bottom. Shangguan Yun just wanted to see Xia Yuzhi's kindness and behavior. At this moment, let him play more tricks. At the end, as soon as this volume came out, the first plan was immediately clear.

Small courtyard, the beginning of the morning.

Yang Yanzhao opened his eyes with a headache, but saw that the exhaust wind beside the bed was dozed off on the chair. He gently got up, squeezed his eyes, and made his mind a little sober.

Get close to the chair, slowly pick up the exhaust air, put it on **, cover the quilt, and tiptoe outside the house.

As soon as Yang Yanzhao closed the door, **'s exhaust wind suddenly opened his big eyes, with a shy smile on his face. He wanted to go to work early, but when he thought that the prince had just carried her to bed, he got up and went out, which would be noticed.

Immediately pulled the quilt with my hand and buried it in it. In the quilt, there was a smell of wine that had not yet dissipated, and it also smelled like a prince. Suddenly, the heartbeat of the exhaust wind was almost a little higher.
