At the beginning, there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave, and the woman is busy in the imp

Xie Yuheng pursed his lips, his eyes were moist, and he stretched out his arms to hug Meng.

Now when I take my mother back to Beijing, I might encounter people from the Yongchang Mansion who would be an eyesore, so it would be better to...

Xie Yuheng secretly clenched her hands in her sleeves, waiting for her to take her back to the capital with the order of her mother.

The tears in Meng's eyes fell silently on Xie Yuheng's hair. But he still tried to maintain a calm tone. "Silly boy."

She also read books and studied classics to understand current affairs, so she knew that entering Beijing now might become a drag on Heng Heng, so it would be better to build a good reputation for the little guy in Jingzhou.

It's just that the flesh that fell off her body was almost never separated for long periods of time except to take part in the imperial examinations, so how could she bear it.

Xie Tingjiang held a small white porcelain jar, walked in through the curtain, and placed it on the low table on the couch.

Then he leaned over and looked at his wife and daughter, and joked: "Let me see where these two tabby cats came from."

Meng was amused by his funny appearance and protected Xie Yuheng with one hand.

The other hand slapped him directly on the forearm. He cursed in a low voice: "There is no formal appearance in front of the child."

Xie Tingjiang laughed, touched the back of Xiao Yuheng's head and said, "Today is the Lantern Festival, how can we miss the Bai family's water ball?"

Someone brought bowls, and Xie Tingjiang personally served water dumplings to his wife and daughter. The family ate and chatted. Unknowingly, it was almost midnight, and all the servants had been sent back to sleep by Xie Tingjiang.

Looking at his wife and daughter who were still reluctant to separate, Xie Tingjiang said softly: "You two will sleep on the bed, and I will sleep on the couch."

With that said, he got up and took out a new quilt from the large floor-to-ceiling cabinet and replaced the old one on the bed.

Meng and Xie Yuheng slept in the new one, and he slept in the old one. Just like how Xie Yuheng looked when he was born.

I don’t know how much time passed, but I listened to the gentle breathing of my wife and daughter. Xie Tingjiang stretched out his hand from the quilt and touched the scar on his face.

Mr. Si once said that if he goes to Beijing, he will definitely have a place in the Imperial College. It is not impossible to get a sacrificial wine.

But if he wanted to compete in the Luchaotang, he would have initially accepted Chu Heng's invitation. The sacrificial wine is the sacrificial wine of the Imperial College.

The headmaster of Xie's academy belongs to Xie's family, and is also Yuheng's unwavering strength in the future.

.......

The next day, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

The north gate of Jiangling City, outside the Changting Pavilion, beside the official road.

The carriages of the candidates who had received their fire certificates from the government and headed to Beijing to take the exam followed Xie's motorcade.

These are from several nearby counties, such as those in the southwest of Jiaozhou and Yizhou, who set out as early as the twelfth lunar month.

In addition to the possibility of accidents on the road and time consuming, you also have to consider the acclimatization and give your body time to adapt.

Next to the long motorcade, there were two groups of majestic Shenwu Battalion soldiers, totaling more than 700 people, who entered the Guards Battalion together with the newly promoted Zhenwei Captain Xie Mingcheng.

The transfer order document was issued by the Ministry of Personnel long before it was sealed by the imperial court at the end of the year. It just happened to be that the mountains in Jingzhou were closed due to heavy snowfall at the end of the year, so it was not delivered until a few days ago.

Xie Yuheng held something covered with red cloth in his hand. After saying goodbye to his family, Yiyi walked towards his carriage.

There were bright yellow flags on both sides of the carriage, with four big words written on them - 'I have been ordered to hold an examination. ’

Xie Yuheng stepped on the horse stool, and a gust of wind playfully blew up the red cloth, revealing the word "thank you" on the tablet, and there was only one word "thank you".

Under the grass pavilion, Zhen Youqian played the Yangguan Sandie on the flute to bid farewell to his friends. The already sad people were even more reluctant to leave after hearing this song, and followed the motorcade for a long distance.

But after a long journey, we have to say goodbye. Xie Yuheng bowed to everyone and said, "Everyone, just send me here. Pay attention to your steps when you go back on the cold road."

Xie Nian rode on Xie Yonggui's neck and asked reluctantly: "Brother Yuheng, will you come back?"

"of course."

Xie Yuheng smiled at the little girl. "One day I can go to Beijing and reach Jiangling in one day."

"Everywhere in the country will be peaceful, people will be able to live and work in peace and contentment, and our little girl will be able to eat sweets every day."

Xie Nian waved his hands happily, "That's great, I can eat sweets every day."

Xie Yonggui had three black lines on his forehead. His daughter knew the key points.

As for why Jiang Ling came to Beijing on one day, everyone just thought it was Xie Yuheng who coaxed the child.

For example, Yangzhou's water transportation is so convenient, but it still takes several days of walking by water, and finally it takes several more days to travel by land to reach Shangjing.

The carriage slowly set off again, and this time no one followed. It wasn't until the rear of the carriage disappeared from everyone's eyes that they reluctantly went home.

On the city wall, Zhou Canyun, who was still watching the motorcade, sighed: "Young Master is really a man of good character. He is so careful and good at cultivation that I am envious of him."

Xie Tingjiang smiled, put his hands behind his back, and said solemnly: "It's Xie's good fortune."

Zhou Canyun thought about the rumors he had heard before, 'Before Jiangling Marquis was born, the Xie family's ancestral tomb caught fire. ’

I touched the stubble on my chin. How about burning the Zhou family's ancestral graves during the Qingming Festival this year?

I just don’t know if this man-made thing will work or not.

Zhou Canyun shook his head, throwing away this unreliable idea, and changed his face to a serious expression, "Shen Xiu, do you really want to teach the children in the charity hall in the city for free?"

"This is natural, and it can be considered as a way to accumulate virtue for my son."

"Then let's talk while we walk and be careful with your invitation." Zhou Canyun made a gesture of invitation, completely ignoring that he was the official of Jingzhou's parents.

What a joke, of course the more scholars there are in Jingzhou, the better. This is a political achievement!

This political achievement also has legs! Delivered to your door yourself! He can wake up laughing at night!

The two of them went down to the city wall, and the carriage of the disciples also changed a route, and there was no longer any shadow.

Because the snow has not completely melted in some places, the mileage that the carriage can travel every day is not very high.

Bandits from afar saw the convoy and did not dare to rob it. They could only watch the fat sheep passing by.

It's one thing to be defeated, but there is a bright yellow flag on the luxury carriage in the middle. They are seeking wealth, not death.

After robbing this thing, it will not be allowed to be trampled directly to the top of the mountain by the regular army of the imperial court in the future, and all the eighteen generations of ancestors will be dug out and ground into powder.

However, Xie Yuheng had too many tricks in his career, which gave the inns along the way a headache.

Anyone who holds a fire card can use the inn for free. This can be regarded as one of Chu Heng's preferential policies for scholars.

But who would come to Beijing to take the exam in groups? It would be nice if they didn’t fight like black cocks.

Yi Cheng had no choice but to ask the local county magistrate to allocate funds and rent several inns to accommodate all these ancestors.

There were quite a few people who wanted to visit the famous nine-year-old Jiangling Marquis in Jingzhou, but they were all turned away.

The reason is that the Marquis of Jiangling is in poor health and does not see foreigners.

Occasionally, when local officials wanted to make friends, Xie Yuheng would cover his lips with a handkerchief and cough.

That little face is white and the lips are light-colored. Who can say that this is just an act? !

Only Xu Lu felt that this scene seemed familiar... He had also been one of the people who had been deceived...
