The daily routine of the ancient imperial examination

In a remote corner diagonally across from the book shop, a bald man with a beard was pointing at the door angrily.

"Boss, it's him! It's the ginseng that that kid sold to Shi Yunchen. That's why Mr. Zhao lost the emerald jade and got us punished!"

"Now that kid is hiding in the bookshop, why don't we brothers rush in and take him out?"

"Stupid!" Their boss patted his bald head, "Don't forget who owns the book store, even if you dare to mess around, Master Zhao won't be able to protect you!"

"Then let's go in quietly and catch him, beat him half to death and throw him into the river. Besides, the Zhao family has the final say in Ping'an Town, so there's nothing to be afraid of." The bald man muttered unconvinced.

The boss was so angry that the wound on his chest started to hurt again, he hated the iron and scolded the bald head, "A skinny camel is bigger than a horse! No matter how poor we are, we can't mess with the Shi family!"

Seeing that the people under his command were honest, he began to command, "Fatty, you take them to guard here, and the bald man will squat at the back door with me. I still don't believe that he can hide for a lifetime."

Inside the bookstore, Lu Xiuyuan patted his chest in shock, almost being caught up.

Seeing him going back and forth, shopkeeper Lin looked in a hurry again, and asked with concern, "Lu Xiucai, what did you leave behind?"

Lu Xiuyuan took a breath and waved his hands, "No, no, I was targeted by a few gangsters, shopkeeper Lin, please let me go through your back door."

Shopkeeper Lin pointed in the direction, and he left quickly.

Unexpectedly, when he opened the door, he saw a fat man with a face full of flesh and a grass root in his mouth, followed by a bald man, staring at this side.

Lu Xiuyuan quickly closed the door again.

He took a deep breath and was speechless in his heart. What's going on here? !

boom! !Snapped!

There was a loud slap on the table and the sound of cups breaking behind him.

Hearing the voice seemed to be coming from the previous room, Lu Xiuyuan was worried about what might happen, so he walked over.

As they got closer, the voices inside became more and more clear.

"Well written! That's it! Who said that a brother is not as good as a man! Hahaha? Why are you back?"

The other party's wild laughter stopped abruptly after seeing Lu Xiuyuan.

"Heard something, come and take a look." Seeing the broken pieces of porcelain all over the floor, his eyebrows twitched. It would be too dangerous not to clean up sharp objects quickly.

Shi Yunchen was lying on the chair to read a book. Seeing that Lu Xiuyuan noticed the mess on the ground, he looked a little nervous.

In a panic, he threw the notebook in his hand on the table and stood up.

Unexpectedly, this was the last straw that broke the camel's back. After the previous palm, the table was already overwhelmed and ruined.

Lu Xiuyuan stood outside the door and was stunned when he saw the table broken into eight pieces in front of him.

Is this the shot just now?

Master Shi is so strong?Deep down in his heart, he was a little envious...

Before Shi Yunchen explained, he was directly blocked. He pretended to be calm and called Nan Xing to clean up the house.

Seeing that Lu Xiuyuan was still staring at the table scraps on the ground, he seemed to have thought of something bad, and asked with a stinky face, "Why, do you also think the young master's strange power is terrible?"

"No, no, Lu is just envious." Lu Xiuyuan explained.

Hearing this, the other party curled his lips in a self-deprecating manner.

"Oh, it's just a monster, what's there to envy."

Although he didn't know what was going on, but Young Master Shi didn't seem to like his strength, so he comforted him:

"It's true, if Lu has this strength, he can beat anyone who is unhappy, and now he won't be blocked by a few gangsters and unable to go home."

When Shi Yunchen heard the words, he asked curiously: "Huh? You are a scholar, what are you doing?"

"unclear"

Lu Xiuyuan talked about being followed in a sack and described the other person's features by the way.

Unexpectedly, when Shi Yunchen heard this, he laughed directly.

"Hahaha, those cowards didn't dare to come to the young master after suffering a loss, but instead ran to trouble you, a young scholar."

Hearing this, Lu Xiuyuan guessed that he was implicated in something when he was selling ginseng before.

"It's okay, it's okay~" Shi Yunchen waved his hand at him, sat back on the chair and raised his legs, playing with the jadeite hanging on his waist, laughing arrogantly.

"Those people are lackeys surnamed Zhao. The master has suffered a lot from me and wants to find a place with you."

He saw that Lu Xiuyuan's face was not very good-looking. After all, he is a young talent who can write good stories for himself, so he still needs to appease him.

"Don't worry, I'll find someone to take you back in a while, and you can write your script at home, and those people won't be around when you hand in the manuscript next time."

Gone, probably dead.

After time travel, Lu Xiuyuan has been sober. This is an era when the powerful can do whatever they want. A poor person like him who has no money and no power, even if he has a reputation as a scholar, can still be squandered to death at will.

He looked at Shi Yunchen who was crouching in the chair and smiling flamboyantly.

It seems that it is very necessary to have an in-depth understanding of the other party's preferences. Such a relationship must be good. This is a moving amulet!

"Then thank you, Master Shi."

"You're welcome, just write a few more good stories." Compared to thanking him, he still prefers to read all kinds of stories.

Lu Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Naturally, there are still a few stories at home that have not been finished, and I will send them to Master Shi as soon as they are finished."

"Huh? You still have some at home?" Shi Yunchen was stunned, and Erlang's raised legs were put down.

"Yes, but the finale hasn't been written yet..."

"Oh, you didn't say it earlier!" Shi Yunchen stood up directly, walked over with a smile and wanted to hug his shoulders, but after finding out that Lu Xiuyuan was not as tall as Lu Xiuyuan, he gave up silently.

"Let's go, I'll take you back personally, young master."

He whispered a few words to Nan Xing who was waiting beside him, and then he stuffed the emerald jade in his hand.

Nan Xing hesitated, "Master, Young Master, why don't you wait a little longer? Let's go with you when Nan Xing finishes delivering the things."

"Shut up, how long will it be until you come back, do what you are asked to do, young master, I am still waiting for a good show tomorrow!"

Shi Yunchen thought about tomorrow's scene, and smiled maliciously.

"Killing those people, I think my hands are dirty, I will let Zhao Yu do it by himself tomorrow, and I have to pay for it, he is such a nice person, I guess he will vomit blood~"

"Okay, young master, please be careful, be careful..." After speaking, he glanced at Lu Xiuyuan, with deep worry in his eyes.

Seeing Nan Xing's attitude, Lu Xiuyuan really wanted to say something about your young master's military strength, so it's others who should be worried.

When Nan Xing left, Shi Yunchen asked shopkeeper Lin to prepare the carriage, brought two guards and set off.

The carriage is luxuriously decorated, and the interior space is large enough that you can hardly feel the bumps when sitting on it.

Shi Yunchen took out a plate of pastries from the drawer, put them on the table in the middle, and started the story listening mode.

"Lu Xiucai, please tell me the story written by your family first."

Lu Xiuyuan thought about it for a while, and said: "It's also about the fox fairy. A scholar rescued a little fox from a hunter thousands of years ago. After a thousand years, the fox came back in human form to repay his kindness."

"And then?" Shi Yunchen took a bite of the pastry.

Lu Xiuyuan thought about what happened before, and temporarily changed the plot:

"The fox fairy turned into a fairy-like brother, accompanies the scholar to study every day, and sponsors his imperial examination..."

……

"...Under the protection of the fox fairy, the scholar finally brought down the last big villain in the court. Since then, he has been promoted and made a fortune, and has a status of less than one person and above ten thousand in the court."

"What about the fox fairy, are they together?" Shi Yunchen couldn't get enough of what he heard, so he asked.

"I haven't written that yet. Humans and demons have different paths. The ending is probably that the scholar married the princess, and the fox fairy ascended to immortality."

Hearing this, Shi Yunchen slapped the table angrily, "Why aren't we together? Don't care about his transgression, Lu Xiucai, you changed the ending for me, I don't like it!"

Lu Xiuyuan said helplessly: "Okay, okay, change, change that the two of them are together."

"That's right!" Hearing this, the other party nodded in satisfaction.

After the story was told, the carriage also arrived at the entrance of their village.

Lu Xiuyuan lifted the curtain and showed the coachman the way.

Yun Chen laughed out loud while inside the car, "You're quite interesting, did I say to deliver it to your door?"

Lu Xiuyuan turned around and said, "Young master Shi came here mainly to read the manuscript, how can you get the manuscript if you don't go to Lu's house?"

Being guessed right, Shi Yunchen snorted in the carriage, and didn't refute anymore, but had other crooked ideas in his mind.

In the remote Jinshan Village, a luxurious carriage came suddenly, followed by two guards, which immediately attracted the attention of the people working at the entrance of the village.

The adults were fairly restrained and just watched from afar.

The children playing next to him couldn't do it, a group of little radish heads came up curiously, and shouted immediately after seeing Lu Xiuyuan sitting in the car door.

"It's Lu Erlang~ It's Lu Erlang in the carriage~!"

"Lu Erlang is back in a carriage!"

Unable to imagine the expressions of the other villagers, Lu Xiuyuan was a little embarrassed, and quickly lowered the curtain, letting the driver walk along the path to the back.

When they reached the end of the road, they also arrived at Lu Xiuyuan's house, and the carriage stopped at the gate.

He asked Shi Yunchen to wait here for a while, then jumped out of the car by himself to pick up the next few manuscripts.

The yard was very quiet, so he sneaked into his room to avoid disturbing his family.

He found the manuscript by the desk, and was about to send it over, when he turned around, he realized that Shi Yunchen had followed him into the room.

"...How did Young Master Shi come down?"

Seeing that his expression was calm and he was not frightened by his sudden appearance, Shi Yunchen threw off the folding fan to cover his face, "I wanted to follow behind to scare you."

Childish, he complained in his heart, and Lu Xiuyuan handed over the manuscript.

The other party flipped through it casually, and then put it in his arms. "It's just average, not as good as Lu Xiucai's speech."

"Thank you for your love."

After Lu Xiuyuan finished speaking, he was ready to see off the guest, but the other party had no intention of leaving at all.

The room returned to silence.

The two stood in the room for a while, when Shi Yunchen saw that Lu Xiuyuan didn't ask any questions, he couldn't hold back anymore, stepped forward two steps and said in a low voice: "Lu Xiucai, don't you wonder if there is a fox fairy on your mountain?"

Lu Xiuyuan shook his head, "Not curious."

Sure enough, the other party came back with me not just to get the manuscript.

When Shi Yunchen saw that he didn't answer, he folded the fan in his hand and made up his mind.

"I want to go to your mountain to have a look."

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, it is the period when I have strong curiosity and like to explore everywhere.

Sensing the seriousness of the other party, Lu Xiuyuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, as expected, he can do whatever he wants if he has money. This means that the wind is the nature of the rain, and he can't refuse it.

"If Young Master Shi really wants to go, he should first find an old Orion and let him escort us up the mountain."

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiucai agreed directly, Shi Yunchen was a little proud, he thought he had to threaten the other party before agreeing.

"Everything is up to your arrangement." He also nodded in a very eloquent manner.
