Through the ancient dark horse strategy

Ye Xiaoyi didn't care about the ridicule from the patient, he was going to take the county examination, and besides completing the registration procedures, he had to go back to the county to take care of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Ye Xiaoyi will stay in the county for a month, so it is very necessary to rent a small yard with convenient travel and quiet environment.There are five county examinations, each of which is called at dawn and handed in at dusk. Even if you ride a fast horse back from Yangzhou City to the county to take the exam, you will definitely not be able to make it in time.

After each county exam, there will be a five-day break to release the rankings, and then the second exam will take a total of five rounds for a month.It's already March after the exam, and I'm going to go through the registration procedures for the government exam in order to take the government exam in April.

Time was very tight, and there was basically no chance to study hard, so Ye Xiaoyi could only check for omissions and make up for vacancies to review his homework before the county exam in February.I'm basically not in the mood to deal with Xiao Mo's schemes anymore, I'll just keep this guy and deal with it later!

Ye Fangtian knew that Ye Xiaoyi was finally going to take the boy exam, so he also came to see Ye Xiaoyi off.

This guy Ye Fangtian took the provincial examination two years ago, and passed the general examination, room examination, and hall examination all the way, but he didn't fail.In April last year, he had just ordered a Tanhua, and then ran back to Yangzhou City to become an official, still hanging out with Xiao Qian and Ye Xiaoyi.

This guy completed the imperial examination task, got a lucrative idle job in the household department, and spent his whole day singing songs about wine and life, which is much more free than "punching" to work in Beijing, and I envy his class to death Hupenggouyou.

Ye Xiaoyi's participation in the boy's test this time was originally a trivial matter, but Ye Fangtian couldn't bear it because he was too busy, so he came to see him off.

Ye Fangtian also brought Xiao Qian here, which made Ye Xiaoyi feel embarrassed to say that he had no idea whether I could pass this most elementary child's test.

The main reason is that he doesn't know how other people's fortunes are, and even Ye Fangtian, who is so unreliable, easily ordered Tanhua.Ye Xiaoyi was very worried that he would be crushed by those sons of aristocrats who had read poetry and books in a second.

The gifts Ye Fangtian and Xiao Qian gave were really fancy. Others gave pens, inks, papers and inkstones, but they gave a bunch of food.

Xiao Qian took out bottles of medicated oil, digestive medicine, antiemetic medicine, and excitement.Forget about the panacea health medicines such as San and Jiefanjin, but Ye Fangtian actually took out a bunch of candied haws, packs of melon seeds, lotus root cake, mille-feuille cake, and brown sugar water!

Xiao Qian said: "Lanling Restaurant gives you so much money for wine every month, so I won't give you valuables. These medicines are used as a guarantee. If you suddenly get sick within a month, you can have a temporary one." response."

Ye Fangtian was even more exaggerated, and the guy said: "You say reading is boring all day long, I'm afraid you fell asleep in the exam room, these little snacks are just right to refresh you."

Ye Xiaoyi gave Ye Fangtian a blank look: "Master Ye, on the day you went to Beijing to rush for the exam, my younger brother gave you a famous painting worth thousands of dollars, so you use this to send me away?"

Ye Fangtian teased twice, and whispered into Ye Xiaoyi's ear, "Your picture of spring, which is worth a thousand gold. The picture of palace beauties is very useful. Look at it, brother, I have been rushing all the way to the palace exam. In order to repay you, brother All I prepare for you are your favorite snacks, isn't that called intentional?"

Even Ye Fangtian didn't pay much attention to what that guy Xiao Qian liked to eat, he just remembered that the kid liked to eat candied haws and melon seeds.Isn't this called intentional?Looking at the entire Yangzhou city, apart from the Yingying and Yanyan in the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion, the only child Ye Xiaoyi could make him remember.

Ye Xiaoyi sighed, accepted these strange gifts, and took Grandma Ye back to the county where the students came from to take the exam.

Grandma Ye insisted on personally taking care of her grandson's daily diet, and Ye Xiaoyi had no objection.But Prince Xiao Mo Xiao, what does it mean that you, a sick number, followed you secretly?

Ye Xiaoyi shouted at him: "Go back to recuperate obediently, don't make trouble for me!"

Xiao Mo looked weak, clutched his heart and coughed twice: "I moved here with great difficulty, wouldn't it be more busy if you let me go back again?

Besides, the smaller the place, the more chaotic the rules. You and I have seen the brutality of the squires in the village. I don't feel at ease if you stay here alone for a month.The teacher wants to be with you and give you some rear. "

Ye Xiaoyi had no other choice: "If you are a patient, don't worry about it, you can leave if you don't want to, just stay obediently and don't make trouble.

If I really need to ask Lu Shang to solve anything, he is the perfect butler that Xiao Qian gave me, and he is very capable.You can discuss things with him, you know? "

Xiao Mo squinted his eyes and looked at the new butler Lu Shang who was standing respectfully beside him, feeling very uncomfortable.In the past, he was the housekeeper of the Ye family, and the child would discuss everything with him directly.

Now that he has only been away for two years, Ye Xiaoyi has excluded him from family affairs.And let him discuss something with Lu Shang, it's really cruel!

Xiao Mo, who couldn't stand being robbed of his seat, always appeared in front of Ye Xiaoyi intentionally or unintentionally, bringing him tea, a fruit plate, pastries, and asking if he wanted to take a bath.

With the book in hand, Ye Xiaoyi couldn't read it properly anymore. If you came back and forth like this several times, I don't need to read the book, just you!

Ye Xiaoyi drove the sick patient back to the room to recuperate, but he didn't expect the sound of the piano to be heard in the room after a while.

Ye Xiaoyi directly dropped the book, ran to Xiao Mo's room, sat down and asked him: "What do you want?"

Xiao Mo laughed, "I want to live with you as a teacher, I mean sleep in the same room, is that okay?"

"If you live in one bedroom, you won't be a monster anymore?" Ye Xiaoyi had a very headache.

"Well, let's stop making trouble." Xiao Mo nodded very confidently.

"Forget it, forget it, you can move here." Ye Xiaoyi didn't know what to do with him, so he did as he wanted.

Ever since Xiao Mo moved into Ye Xiaoyi's room, Grandma Ye has been delivering soup and other tonics to Ye Xiaoyi's room all day long.

Grandma Ye thinks that Xiao Mo is too honest a child. Not only did he not complain when he was injured at sea, but he was sent back urgently, and when it was inconvenient to get out of bed, he had to live in the room of the good grandson to teach the good grandson how to make a fuss. It's too conscientious.

Grandma Ye provided Xiao Mo with good food and drink, so that his injury would heal soon, and no one would say that their family abused the long-term workers.

Grandma Ye didn't know at all that this "long-term worker" was coveting the young master's "Queen Flower".If she wanted to know Xiao Mo's thoughts, the first person who wanted to shoot Xiao Mo dead was Grandma Ye!

On February [-], the day when the dragon raises its head, the seven constellations of Jiao, Kang, Di, Fang, Xin, Wei, and Ji in the sky form a complete dragon shape. At dusk, the dragon’s horn star rises from the eastern horizon, which is called "dragon raises its head". It will bring good luck and a good harvest, and the county examination is also held on this day.

Before dawn in the early morning, many examinees and their family members were waiting in front of the county government office. The situation was actually the same as the modern college entrance examination, but in ancient times there were fewer scholars and fewer cars and horses, so it was not so easy to cause traffic congestion.

Ye Xiaoyi walked to the gate of the county yamen, just in time to meet the yamen's servant who came to open the dragon gate, candidates swarmed into the dragon gate, hoping for a good omen to be the first to enter the dragon gate.

Grandma Ye saw that the dragon gate opened, and hurriedly stuffed the food basket and some items to her grandson, and told him, "Quick, the first fifty people who enter the dragon gate will have good luck."

When Ye Xiaoyi saw the messy group of examinees, he was afraid that there would be a stampede. If he hurt his hand and couldn't write, it would be bad.It doesn't matter if he doesn't snatch this omen.

It's a pity that Ye Xiaoyi hasn't said anything yet, Lu Shang, the butler of Shiquan, only heard Grandma Ye say "quick!"He took Ye Xiaoyi and jumped up the courtyard wall, directly jumping over the swarm of people and entering the dragon gate.

Xiao Mo, who was injured and still needed someone to support him, saw his teeth itch from the sidelines.I really want to drive away this butler Shiquan.

Ye Xiaoyi discovered that he was actually the first to enter the Dragon Gate...

The food boxes of the candidates who squeezed in last were squeezed out, and some people lost their pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

A young man who came in later patted Ye Xiaoyi on the shoulder and said, "Ye Chen, you are lucky. You are the first to enter the Dragon Gate!"

Ye Xiaoyi: "Brother, who are you? Why don't I know you?"

The young man moved his face closer to Ye Xiaoyi and said, "I'm Wang Gaojun, we're from the same village, don't you remember me?"

"Oh! Wang Gaojun!" It's a pity that Ye Xiaoyi still doesn't remember who he is.

The young man took the initiative to chat with Ye Xiaoyi:

"Ye Chen, you are here to take part in the scientific examination too. I am a good man now and I don't do bad things anymore. I was young and ignorant when I hit your head with a stone. Now I have changed it. Don't forget it. "

This time Ye Xiaoyi remembered, it turned out to be the little bastard of Wang Ergou's family, how could you just say that you were young and ignorant when you threw a stone at me?I will see you once for this revenge, and take revenge once.Let me forget and forget about it.

Ye Xiaoyi snorted, and whispered: "For the sake of the same village, let me tell you one thing, the tea served in this yamen is not clean, and it will cause diarrhea if you eat it, so it's best not to drink it."

Wang Gaojun immediately said: "Then what should I do? I only brought dry food and no water at all. Do you have any water? Give me some?"

Ye Xiaoyi regretfully said: "When I just squeezed in, my water was squeezed out.

It's just one day, and you won't die if you don't drink water.If you really can't help it, just drink it. Anyway, not everyone will be tricked. If you really eat, just wait for the next year. Anyway, we are still young. "

After Ye Xiaoyi said this, Wang Gaojun didn't dare to take the risk of drinking water.Wait another year or endure without drinking water for a day, who knows which one to choose?However, most of the dry food he brought was hard to endure without drinking water, but it would be even more difficult if he ate diarrhea.

Why is this yamen so sloppy with its work, and it doesn't provide clean water.Wang Gaojun felt more and more that he had to be a good person.

After Ye Xiaoyi finished his bad deeds, he was preparing for the exam with peace of mind, but Xiao Mo, who was still outside the exam room, received an urgent message from Eagle Fort.

At the same time, the emperor's old man who was far away in the capital also received twenty urgent letters from flying pigeons.

According to reports, a barbarian of unknown race led an army of [-] to conquer Congling, intending to seize our right to trade on the Silk Road.And the Xiao Dynasty had less than [-] troops stationed in the Protectorate of the Western Regions!

The section of the overland Silk Road from Yumen Pass to Congling has always been owned by our court, and this section of the golden trade channel has also contributed a lot of business to the court.Tax.If I hand over to others, how can I save my face?

The most important thing is that the [-] troops really just want to grab the Silk Road?What if they don't leave when they come and fight all the way to the capital?

Xiao Lie hadn't sat on the throne for a few years before he encountered such a mess, and he didn't even know what race the barbarian was!We can only convene ministers overnight to discuss countermeasures.

Unknowingly, he was overwhelmed by an army of [-], and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked.Some advocate peace, while others seek war.But we have to mobilize troops to carry it over there first.

The magistrate of Yangzhou got up early in the morning and received a letter from Fei Ge from the insider of the capital, "What? There is going to be a war? Then this year's imperial examination will still be held?"
