Lin Gongzi medicine jar

The days passed quickly, and the three-year filial piety period was said to be long.

He bowed deeply to Lin Qing's tablet, got up and took the burning incense, and put it in the incense burner in front of the tablet, Lin Xi dismissed it.

The young man who was thin and weak at the time has now become healthy and handsome, looking personable and graceful.

Butler Lin and the servants of the Lin family looked at Lin Xi in front of them and couldn't help but turn their eyes red for a while, "Master, this is an adult, you have to support the lintel of the Lin family, and the master and wife will feel at ease when they see it in heaven."

Lin Xi nodded solemnly.

"Master, Mother Lu is here."

Lin Xi led the people out of the inner room, just in time to see Mama Lu who was in front of Mrs. Liu leading a group of maidservants in.

When he saw Lin Xi, he immediately smiled, "Master Biao, today, Master Biao takes off his clothes and doesn't need to wear plain clothes anymore. Madam has already prepared all kinds of clothes to decorate. Wearing clothes, and the decoration of Lanyue Xuan should also be changed."

No matter when Liu Shi is, he always does everything on the surface.

"It's troublesome for my aunt, and mother Lu has worked hard."

Lin Xi thanked her, and Zhou's mother took the two girls to meet Feng Hong and pick up the things.

"Master Biao is just joking. This is what the old slave should do. If there is anything missing here, just go to the old slave. Madam has already sent a message. You must not wrong Master Biao."

Lin Xi nodded and smiled, the relationship between him and Mrs. Liu has become more delicate now.

In the past three years, in the eyes of outsiders, Zhao Yuanrong was still close to his natal family, but only the person involved knew that the elder son really trusted this cousin, and instead, he was in an embarrassing situation with his in-law Yongning Houfu.

However, the child is fine, and the most irritating thing is that Prince Rui, who has been squatting in the northwest for more than two years, is completely following the direction of the wind. Wherever Lin Xi is, he will send generous gifts, whether it is the Yongning Hou Mansion or Chengxi Bai. The government is quite disrespectful.

But no matter how dissatisfied, so what?Even if Xiao Jinxin tore the veil with hatred, she couldn't change the prince's mind of the holy family Zainong.

As for the entire Yongning Hou Mansion, Lin Xi's father's family is almost gone, and the Yongning Hou Mansion is the only relative. As long as the general direction remains the same, it doesn't matter if Zhao Jingyi gets close to anyone.

Especially now that Xiao Jinlan is married to Prince Liang's residence, if she doesn't want to participate in the vortex of seizing the heir apparent, she really needs the support of Prince Rui's residence.

Therefore, the Marquis of Yongning treats Lin Xi more courteously, and Lin Xi herself is up to the challenge, so she will be able to end once the filial piety is over.

As soon as Mama Lu left, Mama Ren came back, bringing a bunch of things.

"The old lady has hidden a lot of good things for the young master. Now, apart from clothes, she can finally use them. See, this is why the old slave is urging to send them over."

Lin Xi cupped her hands and said with a smile: "Grandmother always loves me the most, and I will pay her respects when she settles down a bit."

"Isn't that exactly what it means? The old lady is looking forward to the young master Biao going to talk."

After nagging again, Mother Ren left contentedly.

The Marquis of Yongning held a family banquet in the evening to give Lin Xi a funeral.

It was still early, and Lin Xi was talking with Mrs. Tai.

"When you are young, you should wear bright clothes and look energetic."

Mrs. Tai looked at Lin Xi, who was dressed in blue embroidered, with satisfaction in her eyes.

"Grandma also has a good eye and chose well." Lin Xi complimented with a smile.

Mrs. Tai nodded and patted his arm, "In addition to obeying, you have to study harder. Mr. Bai said that he will let you go this year, but are you sure?"

Lin Xidao: "Recently, the teacher asked me to do a few sets of papers from previous years, and I can answer them well. I dare not say that it is safe, but there is always a certain degree of certainty."

Mrs. Tai softened her eyes with relief, "That's great. Xi'er will definitely pass the exam. If you are a scholar who can pass the exam, grandma will definitely choose a lady for you."

As soon as Lin Xi bent her eyes, the smile on the corner of her mouth froze.

This requirement is too low.

I can only bite the bullet and say: "...he is just a scholar. There are several Jinshi in the capital for every brick thrown down. After all, you have to wait for your grandson to be admitted to Jucai, right?"

Mrs. Tai couldn't help but laugh when she saw Lin Xi's tongue-tied look, and gave him a look, "Don't worry, my grandmother has already met several houses, many girls are good, and the other party also has the same meaning. You are only serious about it." After studying for three years, you can pass the examination for a scholar. With our family background, it’s only a matter of time before someone becomes a Jinshi. They are all smart people. Where can I find someone as good-looking as my grandson?"

You really think highly of yourself.

"Grandma doesn't need to worry so much. Xi'er wants to start a career first, and... doesn't plan to start a family."

"Nonsense! Traditionally, men get married first and then start a career. Is it possible that if you fail to pass the Jinshi exam, you will never get married? You are the only seedling in the Lin family, and the top priority is to grow branches and leaves."

Mrs. Tai glared at Lin Xi with hatred, "You don't need to worry about this matter, just end it honestly." She frowned again, and said suddenly, "Could it be that you really treat Lan girl..."

Lin Xi was terrified immediately when she heard the words, and quickly shook her head, "My cousin is already married, so don't talk nonsense!"

If it weren't for you always messing up the mandarin ducks, would almost everyone know about the trouble?

Mrs. Tai took a few glances at him and stared into Lin Xi's innocent eyes for a long time before she felt relieved. She just said firmly, "Your marriage will be properly arranged by the old lady, and I will not wrong you."

There was no room for refutation, Lin Xi twitched her lips, thinking of Zhao Jingyi who was far away, the road ahead was full of obstacles, I don't know if His Royal Highness, the prince with great powers, has a way to deal with it?

Oh, by the way, according to the latest reply, this person seems to be returning to court.

At the family banquet, men and women sit separately.

The fourth uncle, Xiao Yunxuan, was in charge of the Wucheng Bingma Division, and was relatively close to the Imperial Palace, so he was very well informed.

"The emperor is in a very good mood recently. The great victory in the Northwest has been fought for three years, and it is finally coming to an end. It is estimated that Prince Rui will have a triumphant return soon."

Xiao Yuheng said, "That's right, I have drafted a lot of papers, all of which are rewards. This is what I'm talking about, and it's also a happy event."

Lin Xi knew about this a long time ago, but Zhao Jingyi never wrote exact information in his reply letters. Now that he learned from his uncle and cousin, he couldn't help but jump for joy, which meant that he was indeed coming back.

Yongninghou said: "If you catch up early, you will just come back for a new year."

On the side of the women's family, they paid more attention to the Princess Jing'an who was personally appointed by the imperial court.

Shan said: "Earlier, the Empress Dowager wanted to take her back to Beijing, but the Princess has been refusing to do so, so it has been delayed until now. Now that the army is returning to the court, it's time to come."

Mrs. Liu pursed her handkerchief, "It's also pitiful. Once the Zhenxi Palace died, even the Princess is an orphan, and I don't know who to rely on in the future."

Mrs. Tai said: "Let's watch."

When Lin Xi received Zhao Jingyi's reply again, the Northwest Army had already set out to return to the court. Counting the days, as Marquis Yongning said, it would be in time for the Spring Festival.

In November, Lin Xi left the field, and the weather was already cold.

Early in the morning, everyone in the White Mansion was busy, arranging clothes, especially thick cotton clothes, preparing food, storing them easily, checking paper and pens, etc. Everyone except Lin Xi was busy.

"It's just a small test. Don't be nervous, just do what you want. It won't be too late to make a big move after entering Chunwei." Mr. Bai sat aside and watched the people coming in and out, his eyelids twitched, and he looked at Lin Xi with disgust He waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go back as soon as possible."

Lin Xi was not annoyed, and let Zhou's mother put on a cloak for him, and smiled respectfully at Mr. Bai: "Teacher, the students are leaving now."

Old Mr. Bai looked Lin Xi from head to toe, and then glanced at the basket in the servant's hand behind him, seeing that everything was in order, he said "hmm".

"If you can't get into the top five, don't take the exam in the future. You can stop thinking as soon as possible, and you don't have to lose face."

Zhou's mother and the others changed their expressions, but Lin Xi's expression remained the same, and she replied with a smile, "Yes, I will certainly not disgrace the teacher's name."

It seems quite confident.

The carriage of Prince Rui's Mansion had already parked outside the door. Seeing Lin Xi coming out, he immediately opened the curtain graciously. In the carriage, there were all kinds of utensils and a small heater. Please wait for me, my lord."

If so, there is nothing to excuse.

The carriage of the Wangfu was blocked by no one without a wink, and the whole journey was smooth. Halfway through, a group of people and horses seemed to gallop past in an urgent manner.

Lin Xi looked puzzled, but the uniform was from the Northwest Army.

"This is the first herald. It seems that the prince has returned to the court and left the capital for a few days. Maybe the young master will see the prince when he leaves the courtyard."

Lin Xi narrowed her eyes and raised the corners of her lips happily.

The college examination is just the beginning of the long journey of the imperial examination, and it is really nothing to say. If one day he can be as popular as Xiao Yuheng in high school, fortunately, the Golden Palace will attract wide attention.

Those who came to take the exam were generally young, and most of them were young people with weak crowns like Lin Xi. After all, child prodigies were rare, but I saw a few gray-haired ones.

Lin Xi was also acquainted with several students who taught at the Baijia Academy, all of whom were younger than Lin Xi, and they mostly said hello when they saw her.

"Give me the basket and go back."

Lin Xi has experienced this kind of battle many times as early as in later generations, so he does not show timidity, and feels it is normal.

Lin Fang handed the basket and food box to Lin Xi, and said anxiously: "It's cold at night, young master, you have to take care of yourself. If you can't bear it, don't try to be brave. My father told me to live near here. You must wait for the young master to come out."

Lin Xi smiled, nodded, and turned around to enter the examination room. After being searched, she entered the inner compartment.

Three days later, the courtyard door was wide open, and Mr. Lin walked out of the examination room with a basket in his arms, saying goodbye to his classmates.

The servants of the Lin family rushed forward immediately, asking each other for their health and wellbeing.

Yuanyuan put a thick cloak on Lin Xi to keep out the cold, but Lin Xi saw that it was the ferret fur that Zhao Jingyi gave her.

Lin Fang reported: "Young master, the prince's soldiers and horses have already arrived outside the city, waiting to be called into the city. The emperor issued an order to let all civil and military officials greet him outside the city."

Lin Xi was surprised, "So fast?"

Tuantuan said: "That's right, the people of the whole city are mobilized, Prince Rui has won another battle this time, our Great Xia has a good face. If it wasn't for the young man taking the exam, the slaves would also go to collect a fresh one."

Lin Xi didn't know what it was like to feel this sudden change in her heart. She always felt that her heart was beating faster, and she wanted to fly outside the city to meet that person.

Before he left, he was handsome and tall, and he was very eye-catching. I don't know if he still recognizes his original appearance after three years.That face that is always paralyzed, can you show him a smile?

Just as he was thinking wildly, there was the sound of horseshoes in the distance.

Xiao Yuqi got off the horse, patted Lin Xi on the shoulder and laughed loudly, "How did my cousin do in the exam?"

"It's okay." Lin Xi looked at Xiao Yuqi with raised eyebrows.

Xiao Yuqi explained: "Prince Rui returned to the court today, and the emperor ordered all the officials to welcome him. I am the only one free today. Cousin, don't feel neglected."

Lin Xi smiled slightly and shook her head, "I am very happy to have my second cousin come to welcome me."

"That's good. It's hard to stay in there for three days. Hurry up and get on the carriage, go back and have a good rest. The house is ready and I'll celebrate for you tonight."

As soon as Xiao Yuqi said it, Lin Xi felt a little uncomfortable in his body. He was eating, drinking, and lassing in it. Thinking ASAP.

"There's no rush, my cousin doesn't want to see the prince's grace, and the army enters the city?" Lin Xi blinked.

A man always yearns for a walk on the battlefield, and Xiao Yuqi is no exception. If it weren't for the fact that there is no man at home, so he must be asked to pick up his cousin, he would have already booked a wing room to occupy a superb view.

Now that Lin Xi is so up-to-date, Xiao Yuqi hesitated for a moment before happily agreeing.

"Since my cousin has such leisure time, my cousin should accompany me."
