The daily routine of the ancient imperial examination

Lu Xiuyuan traveled by land and took a horse-drawn carriage for this trip. Due to road problems, the driving speed was relatively slow. When they arrived in the capital, it would be almost half a month later.

The road was full of wind and dust, and they hardly had a good rest. Under the exhaustion of this kind of boat and car, the two of them inevitably lost a little weight.

Now that he finally arrived at the capital, Lu Xiuyuan lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the majestic city wall in front of him, he was relieved.

Now I can finally rest well.

Afterwards, Nan Xing drove the carriage into the city and stopped at the door of a post station, and the two got out of the carriage.

"Xiao Er hits the top!"

"Hey, okay! Guest officer, please~"

One of the waiters in the store was responsible for driving the carriage to the backyard, and began to feed them with water and grain, and the other led them into the store.

Shi Yunchen didn't talk nonsense, and directly ordered: "Come to the two upper rooms, and bring a bucket of hot water by the way, and prepare some special dishes in your restaurant later."

The waiter next to him nodded repeatedly and sent them to the room by the way.

After the other party retreated, Lu Xiuyuan couldn't help but asked, "Why do you mean hitting the top? Don't we live here?"

The other party gave him a sideways look, "Why do you live here? Wash up here, and we will go to the general's residence in the afternoon when we have enough energy."

Hearing what the young master said, Lu Xiuyuan pursed his lips: "Why don't I go to live in the guild hall..."

Since they don't live in a hotel together, he doesn't need to spend money to live by himself. It's better to live in the fellow village hall, where the accommodation is free, and he can just buy a la carte and cook by himself on weekdays.

"What are you thinking?" Shi Yunchen said in surprise, "Of course you are going to live in the General's Mansion with me, what kind of shabby hall are you staying in?"

"It's not good..." After all, they just got engaged.

The other party spread his hands: "What's wrong with this, we don't live in the same room, and it's normal for students who are rushing to take the exam to stay at the other half's house!"

Nan Xing next to him heard their conversation, couldn't help but covered his mouth and smiled and said: "It seems that my uncle is stupid in studying, when you arrive at the general's mansion, you and the young master don't live in the same yard, and it's hard to see each other on weekdays, and you worry about it." What."

Lu Xiuyuan touched his nose, but he didn't expect to be the one who made such a fuss.

The young master raised his chin at him: "When the time comes, you can study at ease, and three meals a day will be prepared and delivered to your room, so you don't have to think about anything else."

"Yeah." He nodded, but thinking about what Nan Xing said just now, the two of them were not in the same yard, and they might not see each other often, so he felt a little pity.

The other party seemed to have guessed what Lu Xiuyuan was thinking, and poked him on the shoulder: "You don't have to feel disappointed, after grandma's birthday party is over, we will go out and rent a yard to live in by ourselves."

Lu Xiuyuan got stuck for a moment, and just when he felt that this question was not easy to answer, the waiter outside the door brought hot water up.

Without talking any more, the two of them went to take a shower separately, and after eating and sleeping to refresh their energy, they changed into new clothes prepared in advance in the afternoon.

After putting it on, Lu Xiuyuan looked at himself in the glasses. The clothes the young master prepared for him were a blue robe embroidered with auspicious clouds, a dark jade belt wrapped around his waist, and two sets of jade pendants hung on it. Following his movements, It is constantly making crisp crashing sounds.

Hearing the sound of the pendant pendant, he couldn't help but slow down his pace.

The man wearing the jade pendant is not to listen to the sound of the impact, but to remind the behavior to be calm and moderate.

After doing a few movements and getting used to the clothes, the outside door also opened, and Shi Yunchen came in shaking the jade fan.

"Are you ready? Let's go when we're done?"

Lu Xiuyuan raised his head and took a look. The other party changed into a warm-colored Haitianxia robe, which was embroidered with the same texture as his body with silver thread. A gold and jade belt around his waist outlined the young man's slender waist.

With difficulty, his eyes moved away from the tightly gripped waist, and then he looked at the other person's face, and then froze.

"Why did you order this?"

Lu Xiuyuan stood up, put his face in front of the other party, his eyes fixed on the vermilion point between his eyebrows.

Shi Yunchen pointed out: "You mean this cinnabar?"

After seeing him nodding, the other party explained: "Now that you're in the capital, this is of course to show your identity, why? Isn't it pretty?"

"No no, it's pretty nice."

He just didn't expect that just adding a touch of vermilion, how could it change people's temperament so much?

If the young master had a very innocent sense of youth and nobility before, then after a beauty mole was dotted between his eyebrows, his whole face suddenly became gorgeous and flying.

But, it's so pretty, suck...

Staring at each other, he couldn't help but take the young master's hand, "Let's go now."

The two packed their luggage and drove away in a carriage.

The General's Mansion was some distance away from the inn, and they sat for almost a stick of incense before arriving at their destination.

Nan Xing got out of the car to pass the post to the concierge, and Lu Xiuyuan lifted the curtain to look at the house in front of him.

The outer wall courtyard has been baptized by time and years, and a sense of simplicity and simplicity comes to the face.

There are tall and mighty stone lions sitting on both sides of the gate, and on the plaque in the middle of the gate are written the five big characters of Zhen Guo General's Mansion. The handwriting is vigorous and powerful, and the lines are full of majestic momentum.

Due to the problem of sightlines, the entire courtyard cannot be seen for a while, but it can be guessed that it is at least a mansion with four entrances.

If he can also buy this kind of yard in the future, his life will not be too pleasant.

Perhaps seeing the admiration in his eyes, Shi Yunchen said with a hint of disdain, "Don't look at this house, in fact, this is the only house left in the Shi family to see, and everything else is not worth mentioning."

It's ridiculous to think that the once famous family is now relying on the ancestral mansion to maintain its appearance.

Lu Xiuyuan reached out his hand and shook the other party, but did not speak.

The two sat there quietly and waited for a while, but the porter inside did not come out for a long time.

Now is the hottest time in the afternoon, and the heat wave is billowing in the air, like a steamer.

They were fine sitting in the carriage, Nan Xing was already sweating profusely from the scorching sun waiting at the door.

Shi Yunchen frowned, after a cup of tea, the other party suddenly called Nan Xing back.

"What's wrong, master?"

Nan Xing trotted over, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves.

"Don't stand outside, you can wait on the carriage."

"Hey? How can that work?" Nan Xing waved his hands again and again, "I'll just stand outside and wait."

Shi Yunchen didn't talk nonsense with him, he jumped off the carriage and greeted Lu Xiuyuan.

"Come on, let Nan Xing wait in the car, let's go shopping nearby and find a place to have tea."

"Ah? Isn't it good, young master?" Nan Xing looked puzzled, "Will the people in the house say that we have no manners?"

"Etiquette? What kind of etiquette are you talking about with a paper tiger?" Shi Yunchen raised his eyebrows and said disdainfully, "What's more, it's the other party who made trouble first."

After hearing this, Lu Xiuyuan couldn't help but cast an admiring look at the other party.

It has been so long, the concierge who just entered was obviously stopped, and the personalities of the people inside are unclear, but judging from the hot weather, it is estimated that they are not easy to get along with.

But they made a wrong calculation this time, maybe another person might just wait here, but they didn't expect that Shi Yunchen would not accept this at all.

Lu Xiuyuan followed the opponent's movement and jumped off the carriage, and Nan Xing was also pushed into it.

Although he doesn't know the details of the people in this mansion, but Shi Yunchen dared to do this, he must have his own confidence, so he should go quietly to drink tea and enjoy the cool.

The two ordered a pot of tea at a nearby teahouse, and ate a few snacks. They sat leisurely until the sunset in the west.

Looking at the rosy clouds that remained in the distance, Yun Chen's expression became more and more ugly when the light and shadow flickered.

"It's such an hour, and Nan Xing hasn't come here yet, maybe my grandmother lost her head and forgot who allowed the Shi family to keep the mansion alive until now?"

Lu Xiuyuan sighed inwardly, and did not speak. The family seems to be more troublesome than he imagined. Sure enough, the house is big and there are many twists and turns.

After finishing the snacks on the plate with tea, Nan Xing trotted all the way to find them.

At this time, the sunset glow in the sky outside had gradually dissipated, and Nan Xing was panting to report the latest situation to Shi Yunchen.

"Master, the people in the mansion just said that the ancestors couldn't be notified when they took a nap, so they accidentally neglected us, and now they are welcoming us at the door!"

The author has something to say: don't worry about my family being cannon fodder, the capital city is the big stage for Xiao Gong, and the show will start after you settle down.

The old man in the family passed away, and there is still an interview to prepare. During this period of time, the update is not stable. I apologize in advance, and I will update more when I come back.
