Cannon fodder attack in BG text [Quick Pass]

"My lord, what is this?"

Wei Yan turned his head, and saw an old and tired face looking at him carefully.Wei Yan frowned and thought for a while before finding the existence of this person from the depths of his memory.

"Uncle He, are you here to pick up He Ze? I also intend to come and see."

The task target's father is also the husband of the original owner's nanny.After the death of his wife, there was no continuation, and he raised He Ze alone.I haven't met the original owner a few times, I must have seen him, but I didn't dare to come forward but felt that it was not good not to come up to say hello.

"Ah, the child He Ze is usually thanks to the prince's care, so it's hard for the prince to still miss him." When Uncle He learned that the prince really came to see his son, he was flattered and said sincerely.

"No way, He Ze should take care of me more usually. He Ze is not young this year, I don't know if he has made a marriage." He Ze is two or three years older than the original owner, this age is really not young .

"It's settled, it's settled, it's settled with a family not far from us. Even if you fail to get the honor after passing the exam this time, you have to get married as soon as possible. To start a family and start a business, after all, this family is ranked ahead of the establishment of a career. If you want me Said, the fame of this juren is not bad, how can it be so easy to get a Jinshi." When it came to his son's marriage, Uncle He was worried, but fortunately this time it was finally settled.

"If you don't pass the exam this time, just try again next time. There are many people who only pass the exam three or four times. After all, Jinshi is incomparable. When He Ze gets married and has a good wife, he must be more focused on his studies. Maybe, a year later, you will not only have a Jinshi son, but also a big fat grandson." Wei Yan also remembered that He Ze seemed to get married not long after he failed the scientific examination.

"Haha, then I will accept the auspicious words of the lord!" Uncle He was very reserved at first, but he did not expect the lord to be so unassuming, and every word he said hit his heart, which made him relax a lot unconsciously.

"Someone came out." Suddenly, someone from the crowd in front shouted.

Looking in that direction, there was indeed a candidate with a pale face and wrinkled clothes who was supported by his family members to go out.Soon, other candidates came out one after another.

Uncle He didn't have time to talk to Wei Yan anymore, so he waved his hand and squeezed towards the entrance of the examination room, "My lord, I'll go to the front to see if He Ze has come out."

Wei Yan nodded and followed.After waiting for a while, a somewhat weak man came out, but he was much more energetic than the others.Before Wei Yan had time to remember who this person was, he saw Uncle He who was standing aside hastily stepped forward to help him up.

"He Ze, rest at home for the next two days and prepare for your marriage. You don't need to come to my side. I have ordered someone to send you supplements." Wei Yan said.

Originally, he planned to go to his house with He Ze, but seeing how weak the other party had just finished the exam, just when he needed to rest, he still didn't go.

"Thank you, my lord, for your concern. You must remember to attend the villain's wedding banquet." He Ze smiled and cupped his fists. Because he was too tired, he didn't care to do more greetings, and left with his father.

Wei Yan nodded, and watched the two slowly disappear from his sight.

He Ze gave him the feeling that he was a very ordinary person. If the original owner was not the prince, maybe the relationship between the two of them would be better.He Ze should be more like a passerby than cannon fodder.Without the love and hatred of the protagonist, he lived his own life.Maybe they'd be safer with a little distance from themselves?

Wei Yan was thinking about how to keep the distance between himself and the task target, when he heard Cheng Yu's surprised voice.

"My lord?!"

-

I have to say that Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment when he saw that familiar figure when he left the examination room.

"My lord?!"

He blurted out uncontrollably, and Cheng Yu regretted it after finishing speaking.How could the prince come to wait for him? It's too embarrassing for him to behave like this.

Hearing the voice, Wei Yan glanced back, and then remembered that Cheng Yu, who was renting in the palace, also wanted to take part in the examination.Now that we've met, let's go back together.

"Well, let's go."

Cheng Yu still lowered his head slightly to hide the discomfort on his face, when Wei Yan responded to him lightly.I was stunned for a moment, is the prince really here to wait for him? !

Cheng Yu didn't care to sort out the shock in his mind, subconsciously walked to Wei Yan's side, and walked slowly towards the palace with him.Step by step, walking slowly like this for a while, Cheng Yu also calmed down, no longer thinking about why Wei Yan came to wait for him.

When we returned to the palace, it was already dark.Cheng Yu bid farewell to Wei Yan and went back to his yard. When he got back to the yard, he had been a little dizzy before he came to his senses.

Before he had time to think about it, he smelled something fermented on his body, which had been smoked so badly in the examination room before.As soon as he left the examination room, he saw Wei Yan, so surprised that he even ignored the smell on his body.

Thinking that he was standing next to Wei Yan walking all the way with this smell all over his body just now, he couldn't help but turn dark.Even he himself couldn't bear the smell, and it was thanks to Wei Yan that he didn't wave him away.

"Mr. Cheng, do you think you should eat first or take a bath first, so I can order someone to prepare it." The boy knocked on the door and asked.

"Take a bath first, sorry for the trouble." He was afraid that he would spit it out after eating like this.

"My lord, you're welcome, I'm going to prepare now."

It should be that the mansion had prepared hot water a long time ago, and soon a large basin of hot water was ready.Cheng Yu took a full bath for half an hour this time and changed the water twice before he was satisfied.

After taking a bath, someone served dinner, perhaps because of his irregular diet in the past two days, it was very light food, not oily.

While eating dinner, Cheng Yu felt that it was time for him to leave.Although he thought it was impossible for Wei Yan to have thoughts about him, he was faintly aware of his own feelings for Wei Yan.Don't dare to dig any deeper, lest you get to the point where you have no regrets.

Before leaving, in addition to the travel expenses collected by the clan, a relative who had paid five clothes and didn't have much contact with him also gave a few bank notes.It was not intended to be used at first, but now it seems that it has to be used.

He had a hunch that he would pass the exam this time.Even if he can't get into the first class, he still has to be a good scholar and stay in the Hanlin Academy for a few years. It will be a matter of time before he rents or buys a house in Beijing.These bank notes should not be enough for him to buy a house, not to mention that he has to supplement Wei Yan's board and lodging expenses these days.

Having made up his mind, Cheng Yu decided to leave as soon as the palace examination was over.He was not familiar with the place in the capital, so he had to ask the housekeeper to find a house for him.

-

"Hey, look, that's the No.1 of this test."

"Just him? Why does he look like a farmer in the countryside, and I've never heard of the name Cheng Yu, how did he get the first place?"

"Tsk, anyone can really enter the Forbidden City. Let me tell you, it is the nine-rank Zhongzheng system of the previous dynasty that can truly select talents."

……

Outside the Forbidden City, a group of tributes were waiting at the door, waiting for the eunuch to lead them in when the time came.Gongshi in twos and threes gathered together, some discussing poetry, some discussing current affairs, and naturally some discussing people.

Cheng Yu was the one who was talked about. He arrived in the capital late, and he never participated in any of the poetry gatherings held by the students, so naturally he couldn't make friends.

Now, he, a farmer with no talent and reputation, has won the top spot, and he has suppressed a group of officials' children who claim to be geniuses, causing dissatisfaction.The voices of those discussions seemed to be deliberately heard by him, the voices were neither loud nor soft, but Cheng Yu didn't care.

But this does not include being directly approached to provoke him.

"You are Cheng Yu, from Chengjia Village, Heqing County?"

Cheng Yu looked at the elder brother who had a look of disdain and sarcasm in front of him, with a worried expression on his face.

"Is something wrong?"

"Oh! It's nothing." The young master shook his head, and left again with an unclear expression.

The test was about to take place, Cheng Yu didn't want to cause trouble, although he was angry, he didn't intend to pursue it, so he turned around, as if he couldn't see these people anymore.

Fortunately, eunuchs soon led them in. Finally, these people did not dare to be too presumptuous in front of the palace people.

-

Wei Yan also put on the prince's formal clothes for the first time, and it was the first time he had someone wait on him to get dressed since he came here.This official uniform is too complicated, he really can't understand it.

Although he is usually not used in court, but this time he will still be present in the palace examination.Of course, it's just a formality, and the ranking of the test papers has nothing to do with him.

All the way into the palace without twists and turns, even though he didn't know the officials he met, they still respected him on the surface.The expected target did not happen, Wei Yan seemed to have no chance for the face-slap he was expecting.

Followed the large troops into the main hall through the side door. Tables and chairs were placed in the center for examinations, and officials stood on both sides.Of course, the few officials who can approve the papers are all in the back of the hall at the moment, and they have no chance to see the candidates before the end of the palace examination.

Unlike the previous court, they don't have to stand according to the rules, and they can go down to watch the candidates after the exam starts.Therefore, Wei Yan found a pile of people and plunged himself into it, making it less conspicuous.

Soon, the emperor's personal eunuch came out, and all the officials immediately fell silent.Wei Yan imitated the people around him and added the memory left to him by the original owner, shouted long live and saluted, at least there was no mistake.

"Flat body."

A young man's voice came from the upper seat, um, he should be quite young.The youngest prince is more than ten years younger than the original owner's unlucky prince father, and not a few years older than the original owner.It can be said that if the original owner had no natural disability, then he should be the one to sit on the throne.
