Xie Huaiyu ate and drank enough and put away the food box before restarting the exam.

He retook the stereotyped article on the draft paper twice, deleted some, and finally felt perfect, so he re-transcribed it again.

This time, he changed the font again and wrote it in very neat regular script.Compared with the running script on the manuscript paper, the examiner prefers the recognizable regular script.

After another two hours, Xie Huaiyu's paper was finished.

At this time, it was just You hour, and the sky began to darken slowly, but it was not yet dark.

Xie Huaiyu dried the paper and put it aside.He took out two oil lamps from the test basket and lit them.

Bai Shu also prepared a lot of lamp oil for him, which is more than enough to burn for ten consecutive days, so Xie Huaiyu doesn't need to be too frugal when using it.

At this time, his first day of exams was over, so he took off his boots and sat cross-legged on the couch to relax.

After sitting for a whole day, his legs and feet became numb.At this time, he took out the hand warmer that Bai Zhu had prepared for him, and asked for another bowl of water.

Xie Huaiyu threw a paper bag into the furnace, poured in a bowl of clean water, and screwed the furnace mouth tightly.The paper bag contained nothing but quicklime that Baizhu had packed in advance. The lime reacted with water to heat it, and the hand warmer immediately warmed up.

Xie Huaiyu put it under his feet to warm the muscles of his legs and feet, which was very comfortable.Eighty percent of my daily fatigue was also washed away.

Compared with Xie Huaiyu, the other candidates were much more embarrassed.

Although individual candidates finished writing the papers, they did not have enough preparations, so they could only light a candlestick and sit on the wooden board to rest.

More people hadn't finished writing at all. At this time, the sky was getting dark, so they lit oil lamps or candlesticks one after another.Continue to fight in the dim light.

Those who came from poor families, or those who were not prepared enough, did not even prepare candlesticks.So I can only write by the moonlight and the faint light next door.

At this time, there were examiners selling candles in the examination room for ten taels of silver each.

Candles that usually cost a few pennies apiece outside can be sold for sky-high prices when they enter the examination room.

Those wealthy families who do not lack money naturally gritted their teeth and bought it, but those who were really poor could only hope and sigh.

At five o'clock, the smell of food came from the examination room again, and it was time for dinner again.

Xie Huaiyu opened another food box as usual, heated it according to the law, and started eating.

The examination room was huge, and the candidates who were far away from him were fine, but those who were quite close to him were simply tortured.

I just hate that I haven't prepared enough, and I think that after I pass the exam, I must go out and find a restaurant to eat and drink!

At night, Xie Huaiyu spread the wooden mats and mattresses on the ground, and then spread a thick layer on top to make his bedding soft and airy.

He lowered the curtain to block the wind and human voices outside, and then fell asleep wrapped in a quilt while stepping on the stove.

In this examination room, candidates are sleeping on the floor, and there are all kinds of complicated sounds outside, so naturally they can't sleep well.

But Xie Huaiyu's preparations were already excellent, and he was told to sleep intermittently for three or four hours.Although the energy is naturally not as strong as the first day, it is not bad.

And more people in the examination room have extremely poor sleep.

Some brought bedding, but they only had one bed, and they shivered with cold when the wind blew up at night.

Others didn't even bring their bedding, so they could only sleep on the wooden bench all night, barely falling asleep, and in the morning they were as tired as if they had been stepped on by an elephant.

Some candidates did not have bedding or door curtains, and were placed in the air outlet.

After one night, his whole body was shivering, his forehead was hot, and he developed a high fever.

But at such a moment, he was naturally unwilling to give up halfway, so he still gritted his teeth and insisted on sitting in the examination room, waiting for the next day's examination paper.

The exam questions for the next day will be released again.Xie Huaiyu paused, seeing that the exam question was about people's livelihood.

This is his strength, better than those students who are locked at home all day.

He had a lot of things to say in his heart, so he picked up the pen and wrote very fast.

And some candidates are still writing yesterday's papers. When they see the second day's exam questions, their eyes go dark, and they don't know where to start. They can't help but beat their chests and feel uneasy.

And some who were originally good at stereotyped essays exposed their shortcomings when encountering such practical topics.I wanted to write something, but I didn't know where to start, so I had to talk in general terms, and the article fell to the ground.

The examiner who made the rounds looked all the way at this time, stopped beside Xie Huaiyu, and watched for a while.

The more I read it, the more I feel that the Xie family boy's article is really good, and the various arguments mentioned in it cannot be known to people who are not deeply involved in the folks.

Moreover, he is also thorough about the plan for the people's livelihood and the word behind it.

I wrote a few solutions, all of which were very feasible suggestions, which made him feel enlightened.

"Okay! It's wonderful!" The examiner couldn't help but stroked his beard and said, causing Xie Huaiyu to look up at him, and someone beside him cast his gaze in this direction.

The examiner knew that he was inappropriate, coughed twice, turned and left.Looking back, I discussed this matter with several other examiners.

The examiners were also curious, and took turns running to Xie Huaiyu's side to read his papers.

All of a sudden, all the four examiners present had read Xie Huaiyu's test paper, and all of them were full of enthusiasm, and gathered together to discuss the feasibility of the test paper.

Xie Huaiyu's exam went very smoothly, and the second day's exam questions were all transcribed before noon.

His exam went well, Xie Jia, but Bai Shu frowned, feeling uneasy.

It's just because Lord Xie was announced into the palace by the emperor yesterday, and he didn't come back overnight.

He took Yulang to the palace to inquire, but he was not allowed to enter.When they asked how they were doing, they could only say that the emperor had left them for something, and after that, he would let them go.

On the way back, Bai Shu passed by the examination institute, and saw a group of people patrolling the city passing by, but it was not like what he saw on the first day, all of them had serious faces. , causing Bai Zhu's heart to beat, and even her breathing stopped for a while.

Although Bai Shu has lived a peaceful life for two years, the bloodiness and vigilance of a female and a soldier in his bones cannot be erased.

The officer's eyes were clearly not the relaxed look of a non-commissioned officer in peacetime, but the excitement and caution of going to the battlefield.

This is not right!There must be a big problem with this matter!There was still a bit of luck in Bai Shu's heart, but now he has decided!

If he was in good health in the past, it would be fine to guard Xie Huaiyu outside the examination institute.But now he is about to give birth, his belly is big, his body is not as light as before, and he no longer has the confidence to hold Xie Huaiyu.

"Stop!" Bai Shu said, calling to stop the driver.

"Yulang, go to the outskirts of Beijing now, and look for Qi Qinyue Qi to guard." Bai Shu said: "Be sure to explain the current situation in Beijing to him clearly, and tell him to make preparations to protect His Highness, and then send another team." People go to guard outside the examination hall."

"Then what do you do?" Yulang paused for a while before saying in a hoarse voice: "Brother Bai, you are about to give birth, I can't leave, I want to protect you by my side!"

Bai Shu immediately put on a serious face and said, "If you don't go, you don't have to follow me anymore. I can only trust you now. If you don't help me, who else can I turn to?"

Yulang's eyes darkened, and then he nodded hesitantly and said, "Then I'll go... Be careful, Brother Bai."

After saying that, he got off Bai Shu's carriage.Before he left, Bai Shu stopped him again, gave him a few taels of silver and said, "Take the money and rent a carriage to go there, don't let anyone see where you are."

Yulang nodded and said, "Brother Bai, don't worry."

Only then did Bai Shu call the carriage to drive towards Xie's house again, he frowned slightly and covered his stomach.

I don't know why, since the morning, he has had a slight pain in his stomach, and now it's just a fit of pain, and the feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

When the carriage arrived at Xie's house, Bai Shu asked Chang Le to find the group of soldiers that Qi Qinyue sent to Xie's house, and said to them: "Master Xie didn't return all night, I went out today and found something strange in the city. I'm afraid there will be some restlessness for a while, so you must be vigilant and take precautions."

The leading sergeant is one of Qi Qinyue's confidantes, he has seen Baishu's ability to beat bears and wolves as early as in Baitang Village, and he will not underestimate him just because he is a brother at this time, so he said very vigilantly : "Brother Bai, don't worry, we have obeyed Qi Shoubei's order and will definitely guard the Xie family."

After finishing speaking, he ordered people to lock the gate of Xie's house, and checked all the side gates in the garden, and sent soldiers to guard each place.

By this time, Bai Shu already felt unbearable abdominal pain, so he called the doctor who was waiting at home to help him feel his pulse.

The doctor was Xie Huaiyu, who was worried about Bai Shu, and had invited back early. Seeing Bai Shu, he was already sweating profusely, walking around with his stomach upright without changing his face, and his back was covered in cold sweat immediately.

He quickly let Bai Shu lie back on the bed, and said: "Master Bai, you are about to give birth, why do you have to walk around! Lie back quickly, save your strength, and wait for the delivery!"

Bai Shu had no choice but to go back to the room and lie down on the bed. At this time, his abdomen was in severe pain, even for a person with such a strong will, it was really unbearable.

Bai Shu couldn't help thinking: It's so difficult for Daxuan to give birth to a child. If it was in Zongxing, the female would lay eggs very quickly, and she wouldn't have to suffer such pain.

As the sharp pain became faster and faster, in order not to let out a cry, Bai Zhu bit a towel in his mouth with sweat all over his body.

The doctor saw it at this moment, and couldn't help admiring it secretly. He had seen many men and women give birth, and all of them screamed in pain, and their whole bodies were exhausted.

It's the first time I've seen someone as tough as this brother Bai.

At this moment, the servant of Xie's family suddenly ran over and said to Bai Shu: "Master Bai, it's not good, the Lou family suddenly brought a lot of people to make trouble at the gate, saying that we put Lou and Xie Qi under house arrest. Tell us to open the door immediately."

After hearing this, the doctor hurriedly stopped the boy and said, "What are you yelling about? People are already about to give birth. Why are you here at this time to make trouble!"

If it is an ordinary woman or brother who hears such news during childbirth, it is inevitable that the breath will not go well and be affected.

However, Bai Shu remained calm, without any panic.

It wasn't a day or two before Lord Xie closed Lou's and Xie Qi. The Lou family never expressed dissatisfaction in the future, but why did they choose this time today?

Bai Shu snorted coldly and said, "Ignore them, let them knock, and never open the door. Anything, I'll talk about after I give birth."

At the gate of the outskirts of Beijing, many carriages and people who left the city lined up and waited at the gate. Seeing that the gate was stopped by the guards, they said: "Today, there is an order from Shangfeng, and everyone is not allowed to enter. Go back quickly. It won't open today!"

Some of those who went out of the city were from famous families in Beijing, and there were also merchants who were in a hurry to deliver goods, and those common people had to carry the burden to do business near the city wall.

Therefore, many people were reluctant to leave for a while, and they were still waiting at the door.

Yulang got down from the carriage at this time, mingled among the crowd, and shouted loudly: "What order? It must be a lie! The city gates will be closed three days in advance. I went to see it today, and there are no official documents. Where did the order come from! It must be that you, a petty official, have some shady deal to deliberately embarrass us!"

When Yu Lang called out, those who were about to go out of the city recalled it and shouted, "That's right! You, a little guard, even used such a lame excuse to perfuse us, but who did you accept as a bribe?"

The nobles who were going to turn back were not happy anymore, and turned around to argue with the city guard again.The man gave the money, and they paid for it themselves. How can there be such a reason not to let them go out without any reason?

There were so many people at the gate of the city at this time, and Yulang yelled some incendiary words among them from time to time.

After a while, these people were picked to stand against the city guards, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

In the end, he sneaked into the front row, took advantage of the confusion and beat the nobles a few times, shouted how dare you hit someone, and pushed him on the city guard.

All of a sudden, the nobleman's guards rushed forward and fought with the city guards.

The people were also furious, breaking through the defense line of the city guards again and again, trying to open the city gate.

Yulang has been wandering around since he was a child, and he is very good at fishing in troubled waters. He picked a gap in the gate of the city, and the people who pushed him smashed open the gate and rushed out from the gate.

"What are you still doing in a daze! Hurry up and shoot arrows!" The officer guarding the city wall shouted at the archers.

"But those are just ordinary people, and there are many celebrities and nobles mixed in, let's shoot like this..." Some soldiers said: "If you shoot any nobleman, we will investigate it later..."

If the higher-ups track it down in the future, then the officers will not have to take responsibility, and they are not willing to do it because they use these little soldiers to kill others.

As a result, there was a stalemate on the scene, and they had to watch the city gate being broken open and the flow of people leaving.

At this time, Yulang had already mixed in the crowd and ran a long way, towards the place where Qi Qinyue's army was stationed in the suburbs of Beijing...

·

In the palace, Lord Xie was locked together with a group of old officials, trembling all over.

After entering the palace yesterday, the emperor invited them to discuss matters, and proposed to make the second prince Zhao Liang the heir apparent, and give the eldest son Zhao Yan the land of Shu and let him go out to manage.

It's just such a determination that made many courtiers dissatisfied.Both those who supported Zhao Yan and those who supported Zhao Liang had objections.

After all, one party felt that the prince he supported was exiled, and he would also be excluded from dissidents in the future.One side felt that it was not safe to give the other such a large fiefdom, which would have the hidden danger of splitting.

The two parties argued fiercely and quarreled hard.The emperor had a headache when he heard it, so he asked them all to go back.

But not long after they left the palace, someone from the palace came over to invite them, saying that His Majesty the Emperor had made up his mind, and all the ministers were asked to wait a little longer and let him go to a place.

The ministers were puzzled, but they didn't dare not to listen, so they could only follow the palace man and leave.

Unexpectedly, he was taken into an abandoned side hall, locked inside and unable to get out, and one pass lasted for a whole day.

This day is really long, and the guards outside are hard-hearted, no matter how much trouble they make, they will not open the door.

Just throw in some flatbread and two toilets.Telling them to eat, drink, and scatter all in that temple is really degrading.

At this time, they didn't know that there must be something wrong in the palace.

It's just that they are a group of civil servants, all old, weak, sick and disabled, so they can't deal with the guards in the palace, and they can't break out.

At this time, Mr. Liu said weakly beside him: "You say... who is responsible for this incident?"

"Which one else could it be?" Lord Wei Hou snorted coldly and said, "His Majesty the Emperor has already intended for His Highness the Second Highness to inherit the Great Reign. Naturally, only Zhao Yan and Empress Qi can do such a thing!"

Someone next to him said, "Didn't you find out? Those who stood in line with the First Prince before, Lord Lou, Lord Fang, Lord Miao, etc., were not there. Presumably, they had been informed long ago that they wanted to attack us." Already!"

"I didn't stand in line with this matter either!" Lord Liu said with a bitter face after hearing this: "If you talk about standing in line, it's also Marquis Wei, Lord Xie and the Second Prince standing in line. Why did you get me in too?"

Lord Xie immediately retorted after hearing this: "My Xie family did not stand in line, old man Liu, you can stop talking nonsense! My family is not like the Wei family, and has an in-law with the Second Highness! But you, I didn't know it a while ago. How close I am to the Second Highness, I want to let go now."

Mr. Liu has always been hostile to him, so he snorted coldly at this moment: "Your eldest son is called brother and brother with His Highness the Second Highness, what's the point of you still arguing here? If the First Prince ascends the throne, he will definitely attack your Xie family. "

Marquis Wei couldn't bear it any longer, and slammed the table down: "You guys are still arguing at this moment, stop arguing. We were locked in, but Zhao Yan regarded them as dissidents, and none of us could escape. If you fall, you should hurry up and pray, don't let him succeed in forcing the palace, Second Highness, come and rescue him!"

Only then did the ministers calm down, and they only silently hoped in their hearts that the Second Highness would be wise and mighty, and rescue them in time, so that they could get out of the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible.

In the emperor's bedroom, Empress Qi put a blank edict in front of the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, you sign this edict now, and I promise to keep your bones and blood for you, so that they can grow up well."

The old emperor sat alone on the bed, and the hall was surrounded by a group of soldiers.

Several of his beloved concubines, younger princes, and princesses all knelt on the ground, with a knife on their necks, crying and wailing.

The old emperor didn't have many heirs, and the grown-up princes had no one but Zhao Yan and Zhao Liang. The younger children had Zhao Yang, who was born in the next generation, who was under thirteen. In addition, Zhao Xing, the son of Concubine Chen, was only a five-year-old boy. .The rest are brothers and princesses.

The old emperor looked indifferently at the woman and eldest son in front of him.He had feelings for them in his heart, and even argued with the courtiers over the matter of the fief, but he didn't expect that these two people's ambitions were far from that, and they turned back and were ready to force the palace.

At this time, his heart was already cold, and he had no affection for them as a husband and wife, and it was even more impossible to hand over the power of Daxuan to this kind of person. If you won’t hand it over to the Qi family, don’t dream about it.”

"Since Your Majesty is so ruthless, don't blame us for being rude." Qi said coldly, "Let's kill that new nobleman first."

As soon as she raised her hand, a sergeant swung his knife down.In an instant, the head of the emperor's newest favorite concubine rolled to the ground, and the princes and princesses who were watching at the side also fainted.

"This woman has only been here for a few months, and you will pamper her every day!" Qi Hou gritted his teeth and said: "She is a woman with no background, how can she be loved by you! She is just a few years younger than me." That's all!"

"It's a lunatic!" The emperor scolded angrily. Although he didn't care about this woman, he still felt a little distressed when he saw her being killed: "I am the king of a country, and I can favor whoever I want, and it's your turn to do it." question?"

"You are the king of a country, but you won't be anymore soon." Empress Qi said coldly: "I will inherit the throne soon, and I will be the empress dowager. Let these unsightly women go and be buried with you." It's..."

·

During the confrontation in the palace, outside Xie's house...

With one movement of Master Lou Hou, the more than 100 soldiers brought behind him began to bump into the gate of Xie's house.

Under the command of Qi Qinyue's sergeant, the servants of Xie's family piled all the heavy objects at the door for defense.

In Xie Huaiyu's room, the production of Baizhu has reached the most critical moment...

He was about to bite through the towel in his mouth, his face was pale, and his ears were listening to the noisy noise outside.He had to speed up. If the door of Xie's house was broken before he gave birth, he and the child would be in danger.

Lin Shuyu had given birth to a child, so she was accompanying her in Baishu House, while Xie Qin was restlessly waiting outside the door.

As an unmarried brother, he is not allowed to enter the delivery room, but from time to time, he sees servant girls entering and leaving the room, bringing out basins of cold water and then bringing in hot water, and his heart becomes more and more nervous.

Bai Zhu started to suffer from abdominal pain in the morning, and it has only been five or six hours till now.

He heard that some people have to give birth to a child for three days and three nights. If the sister-in-law is the same as those people...or if there is any eventuality, what will they do when they thank the family?

Thinking of this, Xie Qin gritted her teeth, thinking that the courtyard of Xie's family must be guarded, and no one could break into it.

He immediately took two young servants to inspect the courtyard, but in the corner of the south courtyard, he suddenly saw a servant girl whose back was somewhat familiar.

"Follow me, let's see what that servant girl is going to do?" Xie Qin secretly felt that something was wrong, so she immediately followed and walked through the yard, and saw that servant girl was moving the sundries at the side door of the south courtyard, as if to Open the courtyard door.

The gate of the south courtyard has been abandoned for a long time, and it is never used on weekdays, and even Baishu is unknown.

Therefore, during the garrison, soldiers could not be sent to guard here. Unexpectedly, at this time, some internal thieves took advantage of the loophole.

"Stop! What are you doing!" Xie Qin yelled, and saw the maid turned around, and it was none other than Lou Shi, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

Mrs. Lou provoked Lord Xie to be angry, and should have been sent to the village village.

But Mr. Xie considered that Xie Qi's marriage had not yet been arranged, so he wanted her to stay until after Xie Qi's wedding and then send her away. Unexpectedly, at this time, she became a scourge for internal and external enemies!

When Lou saw Xie Qin, she wasn't afraid at all, just snorted coldly, raised her head high and said, "It's you? Why are you still standing there, why don't you hurry up and help me move everything here?"

Xie Qin was stunned for a moment, as if she had returned to the time when she was oppressed by Lou Shi and couldn't breathe a year ago.

Lou said at this time: "Xie Qin, I treat you much better than Xie Ling. You are not Xie Huaiyu's younger brother, so he will not treat you so much. Let me tell you the truth, now The position in the palace may have already changed hands. This Daxuan will rule the world of the First Prince in the future, and my Lou family will have unlimited glory, and it will only be a matter of time before the Xie family is breached."

"If you help me today, I will still miss you as an old friend and let you go to a good place in the future. If you don't eat or drink a toast, don't blame me for being rude to you when Lou's family comes in. "

The author has something to say: Baozi... Baozi is about to give birth...
