Chapter 16 The Peach Blossoms Are Fallen in Huizhou Mansion, Qianlong Begins to Rise

The New Year of the peasant family is always the most flavorful, but ever since Qian Yiyi died on New Year's Eve, the New Year of the Qian family has always been very sluggish. She couldn't help crying that night.

Seeing his mother's forced smile, Qian Mei felt more and more bitter in his heart. He only felt that a dark cloud was buried in his heart. When he had no money, he suffered, and when he had money, he cried. These days are really sad. He suddenly thought of his dead father, and his heart ached. Even more bitter, that person knows that he is not his own flesh and blood, but treats him like his own son, that is his real father. In a blink of an eye, he thinks of his little sister, that naughty and cute figure...

Ye Huiwen watched her son finish dinner in silence, and she made up her mind that she would tell Qianmei the truth after the provincial examination!

Finally, the cold winter passed slowly, and Qianmei saw that the willow tree outside the house had sprouted new buds, the other trees were still budding, and the peach blossoms had already bloomed, covering most of Yuyang.

When the pear blossoms were in full bloom, the war that had stopped in the winter began again. Linxi Kingdom sent another 50 troops. In addition to guarding the already captured places such as Yumen, there were a total of [-] people who besieged Yangtongguan. Wan's army, Yangtongguan is located between the main peak of Hanhailing, Dinu Mountain, and the Taiyin River. The terrain is dangerous. Outside Yangtongguan is the Shiwan Mountain in Yumen County, Quzhou. It was Feng Qing's natural barrier, but this time Linxi Kingdom took down Yumen Pass without much effort, crossed the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and approached Yangtong.

The war on the frontier was tense, but Huizhou, which passed through Quzhou, did not seem to be greatly affected. People continued to live comfortably. After Qianmei and Guan, he was eligible to participate in the provincial examination. He was still young, but he knew A country test can't stop me.

So when the peach blossoms began to decline, Qian Mei walked into the examination room, but she was not apprehensive.The exam questions are also simple, there are only three questions, and the next one will be announced after writing one.

The first and second questions are lackluster, but the last question is the simplest but also the most interesting. It comes from the words of Qian and Kun in the Book of Changes. .

The topic is familiar to everyone, and the extensibility is relatively high, but it is difficult to write accurately.Qian Mei looked at the last question, and then studied the ink. This inkstone was given to him by Yi Yanqing before the exam.This inkstone was given to Yi Yanqing by his father when he started studying, and he has been with Yi Yanqing for ten years. Now that he gave it to himself, it seems that Yi Yanqing has made up his mind.

Qian Mei came back to her senses, picked up her pen and began to write the last question.

When the peach blossoms were gone, the results of the rural examination came out. On the day when the results of the rural examination came out, Qian Mei was sitting in her yard feeding the chickens, and a few chicks were chattering around his feet and eating the grain husks.

Suddenly a group of officers and soldiers poured in, and the one in front was carrying a gong and drum, beating loudly one after another.Scared the chicks who were eating comfortably and scurry around.

"Congratulations to Qian Jieyuan, who won the first place!"

After hearing this, Qian Mei finally had a smile on her face, "Same joy, same joy"

Ye Huiwen quickly took out some money and rewarded the people who came to report the news, and also served tea and water to those people, who drank the tea and left in a noisy manner.The second person to enter the door was Qian Yi's uncle Qian Shiping, and he also seemed a little embarrassed standing at the door.

Ye Huiwen saw him standing at the door and ignored him, and Qian Mei also looked at the door, and he didn't want to talk to him either, Qian Qiuping treated him like his own son, Qian Shiping was his elder brother so he wouldn't take revenge, but the younger sister His death has always been a knot in his heart with his mother, and he will never accept someone who has hurt him, even on the surface.

Later, people from almost half of the county gathered around. Although it was a rural examination, he was a Jieyuan, clearly No. 1, and maybe he could find a temporary job to support his family.

After a few days, the bustle of the township examination finally subsided, but a bigger incident happened in the county. It is said that the war in Quzhou was tight, and the emperor sent an additional 30 troops to aid the frontier. 30 troops went from Minjing to Quzhou To enter Huizhou.

Yi Yanqing planned to go to Quzhou with the army when the army passed by, to kill first and then play.

On the night when the army was stationed outside Yuyang County, Yi Yanqing knocked on the door of Qianmei's house with a burden on his back.

"Yan Qing, why are you here? What are you doing with your baggage on your back? Where are you going?"

"I'm going to join the army!"

"Have you figured it out?"

"I've figured it out, Qian Mei will never know life or death this time, if I die, I ask you to help take care of my parents in the future."

"Needless to say, it's just that you are too reckless."

"I heard that the marshal leading the army this time is Lord Hou of the Liancheng family of the general family. It is said that he has served in the army before and made many military exploits. I think it must be good for me to follow him."

"The Marquis of the Liancheng family?"

"The name is Lianchengxie"

There was a slight ripple in Qian Mei's heart, and she lowered her eyes, "I won't stop you if you want to leave, but be careful in everything, and be careful on the battlefield."

"I see. I have other things to tell you this time. Today, my father received an order from the magistrate, saying that the imperial court will cancel next year's scientific examination because of the war!"

"It's going to be cancelled!"

"Yes, there is no decree when it will be restored."

Qian Mei walked around her house twice, feeling very upset, Yi Yanqing saw that he was upset, and knew that there was nothing she could do to comfort her, "Qian Mei, I'm leaving"

Qian Mei suppressed the irritability in her heart and sent him to the door, "Yan Qing, be careful in everything."

Yi Yanqing looked at Qian Mei who was feeling a little restless, "Don't worry, I haven't married a wife yet, how could I die. Just don't be too..."

"I'm fine. After all, the war is tight. As a citizen of Fengqing, I won't blame others for my own selfishness."

"Well, then I'm leaving."

Qian Mei looked at Yi Yanqing's resolute back, put her hand on the door, and her disturbed mind gradually calmed down.

The willows have faded and become green, and the peach blossoms have begun to fall one after another. When the peach blossoms are gone, summer will come.

When Ye Huiwen came back with a vegetable basket in his hand, Qian Mei was still standing at the door.

"Why are you standing at the door and blowing the air?"

"Mother, the imperial court will cancel next year's scientific examination due to the war"

The basket in Ye Huiwen's hand fell off, "How could this be?"

"Mom, you don't have to worry about it. I just thought about it. I'm only [-] this year, and I'm still a little young to enter the officialdom. I'll study for two more years and take the scientific examination to be more confident."

"Hey!"

"It's just that mother has to wait another three years."

Ye Huiwen picked up the basket and arranged the dishes, walked into the room, Qianmei walked over and spoke again.

"Mom, I plan to go with the army"

"You don't know martial arts, what are you going to do?"

"Mom, I won't do dangerous things."

"My son..."

Qian Mei knelt down, "Mother, my son is not filial, but this time is a great opportunity for my son, please don't worry, mother."

Ye Huiwen lifted up Qianmei, and at some point, the child has grown so big, and he has also grown a lot taller, unlike before, he doesn't distinguish between genders, and looks like a man.

"I'll clean up for you"

"Thank you mother"

Qian Mei bowed down and kowtowed heavily to Ye Huiwen. He knew that his mother wanted to know what his plan was, but Qian Mei didn't tell her mother because that idea was not very mature yet.
