After the system ran, I took off with my family

"Your Majesty, Lord Ye's injuries have been treated. He just needs to apply medicine on time. There is nothing serious else." Doctor Wu, with gray hair on his temples, bowed and reported.

Zhou Xuan frowned behind the table and pointed at the wound on Ye Han's shoulder that was wrapped in gauze. "His wound is so deep, is he really okay?"

Doctor Wu shook his head and said firmly: "It's okay. Although Lord Ye's wound is deep, but..."

"Your Majesty, I am really fine. It's just a minor injury." Ye Han, who was sitting below, straightened his robe and interrupted Doctor Wu.

Zhou Xuan turned his head and saw that he looked quite good, so he waved his hand and asked Doctor Wu to leave.

"Yunzhi, in your opinion, how should we deal with Wuchangzi? And the Qinghe Sect..." Zhou Xuan pursed his lips. When it comes to those martial arts sects, even he has to handle them with caution.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, there are witnesses and evidence in this case, and this person has long been insane and extremely vicious. Even if he is torn into pieces by five horses, it would not be too much. In order to avoid unexpected twists and turns, I suggest that we deal with it overnight."

Ye Han sat at the bottom, his face calm and composed, "As for Qinghe Sect, what does this have to do with Qinghe Sect? We are just dealing with a vicious murderer."

Zhou Xuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, stared at the box on the table for a moment, and suddenly smiled softly, "Okay, this case will be handed over to you, but..."

His face became serious. "To avoid getting into trouble in the future, think about what to say to the public, and give some instructions to the girls who were kidnapped."

"Yes, I obey your command." Ye Han stood up and replied respectfully.

"Yunzhi, sit down and talk." Zhou Xuan looked helpless for a moment, suppressed the bitterness in his heart, and said, "Do you know the details of that Miss Lin?"

Ye Han pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, that Miss Lin is from Sishui County, Wuzhou. She is here for travel and only brought two servants and a coachman with her."

"Oh? Someone from Sishui County, Wuzhou?" Zhou Xuan's eyes lit up, and he continued, "I remember that the Prince of Zhennan mentioned Sishui County in his previous memorial, saying that he had recruited a young man with great martial arts skills in Sishui County. The young man was only sixteen years old, but he was very good at swordsmanship and had made many contributions in suppressing pirates. So it seems that Sishui County is a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery."

After a few words of emotion, he tapped his fingers on the table lightly, "Miss Lin should be credited with the first merit for bringing this thief to justice. However, this case involves the Qinghe Sect. In order to protect Miss Lin from being involved, this reward can only be given privately. This will be an injustice to Miss Lin."

"Well, I will take out one hundred taels of gold from my private treasury as a reward for you to take out of the palace and personally hand over to Miss Lin. And explain it in detail, so as not to disappoint such kind-hearted people."

"By the way, I remember that the Northern Di envoy presented a fist-sized night-shining pearl when he visited us before. Let's give it to her as well."

As soon as these words came out, Su Lianhai, who was waiting on the side, raised his eyebrows. Ye Han, who was sitting below, also looked up in surprise, "Your Majesty, this night pearl is not suitable, right?"

He once overheard the palace maids talking about how the ladies in the harem were all thinking about this night-shining pearl. If His Majesty gave the night-shining pearl to Miss Lin this time, and the news leaked out, what would the ladies in the harem think? Would they cause trouble for Miss Lin?

Zhou Xuan took in the expressions of the two and chuckled, "What's inappropriate about that? Didn't you say that Miss Lin is only a young girl? A young girl would definitely like Night Pearls."

He remembered something and snorted coldly: "I think it's just right to give it to Miss Lin, so that those people won't worry about it. I know what you are thinking. Only you two and I know about this matter. As long as you keep your mouth shut, no one will bother Miss Lin."

Su Lianhai and Ye Han looked at each other, then bowed and said, "I will keep my mouth shut."

An hour later, Ye Han came out of the imperial study carrying a box, while the chief steward Su, who usually stayed by the emperor's side, followed behind Ye Han holding a bright yellow imperial edict, and the two of them left the palace together.

.....

"Ayan, have you brought everything? Food and writing materials. Do you want to check them again?" At the entrance of the examination hall in Sishui County, Lin An took the basket and looked through it again.

Lin Shuyan looked at his father with a tense face and felt helpless. "Dad, you have checked it eight times since I left. I brought everything I should bring, really."

"Alright, alright, your son is already getting nervous even though he wasn't nervous at first." Li pulled Lin An behind her, patted Lin Shuyan on the shoulder, and said softly, "Ayan, you've only been in school for less than a year, don't put so much pressure on yourself, just treat it with a normal attitude."

"Mom, don't worry, I know what I'm doing." The fourteen-year-old boy was in high spirits and full of vigor.

People had already started lining up at the entrance of the examination hall. Lin Shuyan took the basket from Qingzhu's hand and said, "Dad, Mom, my son has gone in. You can go back too."

"Okay, go ahead, we'll be back soon." Li smiled and waved for him to go in. Looking at the back of her youngest son who was slowly walking forward in the team, her eyes were slightly red.

Lin Shuyan followed the people in front of him and was taken to a small room to undress for inspection. Because the bailiffs in the county government all recognized the Lin family and knew that their county magistrate had close ties with the Lin family, they only gave him a rough inspection and then let him in.

The county examination had to be held for three consecutive days, and all eating, drinking, defecating and urinating had to be done in this small examination room during these three days. It was not known whether Lin Shuyan was lucky or the yamen runners were trying to get him lucky, but his examination room was in a convenient location, and was clean and tidy, as if it had just been repaired.

The content of the first day of the county examination was relatively simple, requiring only two essays from the Four Books and a five-character, six-rhyme test poem. The next two days would require tests on eight-part essays, classics, regulated verse, policy essays, etc.

Lin Shuyan was seen sitting upright with a pen in his hand, writing quickly. The examiner Wu Yuanan watched from a distance and then nodded with satisfaction.

"I don't know why the county exam was postponed to April this year. If it was held in February as usual, Ah Yue could have come with us to send her second brother to take the exam."

After returning to Jing'an Lane, Li put down his teacup and sighed with regret.

Lin An also recovered by now and patted Li's hand gently, "It's okay, it's not a good opportunity this year, there will be a chance in the future."

"Well, I don't know where A Yue is now..."

.....

"Ahh..."

Lin Shuyue, who was far away in the capital, sneezed rarely, which made Qinghe and Qingzhi very worried. "Miss, have you caught a cold? Do you want to see a doctor?"

"No, no, it must be my parents who miss me." Lin Shuyue rubbed her nose. She knew her body best and it was fine.

However, considering the time, my second brother should be taking the county exam.

If all goes well, after finishing the county examination, he can take part in the provincial examination in June. If he passes the provincial examination, he will be a Tongsheng. Then the second brother will be Lin Tongsheng. Lin Shuyue smiled with her eyes curved.
