After Cheng Shi left, Li Hao said to Li Jian and Wei, "It seems that you might as well move to the city to live. As long as you keep the recipe in the future, let the Cheng family do other things, and it will be fine.

You don’t have to be so tired. And the An family’s temper cannot be too relieved after all. It is inevitable that it is inconvenient in the village, so it is better to be at ease in the city."

After discussing with the Wei family, Li Jian and Wei family also planned to do so. Wei family said: "Since that's the case, then my father and I will come to choose a house. In addition, the servants are not good to bring them over, so we can arrange a way for them."

Li Hao said: "Yes, now I don't know if they are reliable, and bringing them here will only cause trouble. But since the soap workshop is about to be opened, let them all go to the workshop to do things and leave it to the Cheng family to arrange it.

The head of the Cheng family would not treat them harshly. Just buy some more here, mainly because you should use it with confidence."

Then, Li Jian and Wei stayed in the city and started to work on buying houses and relocation. Li Hao and Yan Jing continued to return to their hard study period, of course, it was mainly Yan Jing. After all, it was August now, and they left their hometown for the exam.

Less than ten days.

Later, Master Qin began to provide single-person tutoring for Yan Jing, and Li Hao and Yan Jingwen arranged for themselves to study.

Yan Jingwen has a hard-working personality and is always calm in the morning and evening, and never has a shortage.

As for Li Hao, he took advantage of his time and accompanied Wei to settle the house. Finally, after looking at a few stores, he chose a three-entry house not far from the academy. It was very spacious and unique, and the courtyard was also elegant.

Some plum blossoms were originally the house of a salt merchant, but because he was in a hurry to take action, he bought them for nine hundred taels of silver. Then Wei went to buy six servants, one in charge of the nanny, and three in charge of the

The male and female servants who were cleaning, a coachman, also found Li Hao a book boy named Fu Deng, who was about the same age as Li Hao. He looked stupid and didn't know who was taking care of whom.

There was a busy day here. Li Hao originally wanted to see if the An family would do anything, but no matter whether the Li family moved or the soap workshop opened, the An family was not moving, which made Li Hao feel surprised.

Of course, what Li Hao didn't know was that on the day he finished talking to Master Qin, Master Qin went to the Yangzhou magistrate and asked the magistrate to write to the Hongzhou magistrate who was in the Anjia big house. As a result, the magistrate went to the big house to send a letter to the Hongzhou magistrate who was in the big house of Anjia.

I severely scolded this place, so I naturally didn't dare to cause any trouble.

Time passed on the day of the provincial examination. Since the elder brother and his elder brother also took the provincial examination this year, he was in the Yingtianfu scientific examination in Songzhou, so the elder brother and his parents went there. This is Li Hao and Yan Jingwen who came to send Yan Fu into the examination room.

.

When they arrived, they saw that there were already a lot of people outside the Gongyuan. The scholars who took the scientific examination, relatives and friends who were sending the examination, maids and servants were queuing up, and they could not leave through the carriage far away.

The three of them had to dismount, carry food and walk slowly forward. When they almost walked to the gate of the Gongyuan, they became even more crowded. Li Hao and Yan Jingwen had no choice but to protect Yan Fu and go to the gate of the courtyard.

Get the license plate and wait in line.

When they saw Yan Fu enter the examination room, the two returned to the academy and then came to pick Yan Fu up on the third day.

The provincial examination will take three exams. Each exam comes out on the third day and goes in the next day, so Li Hao and Yan Jingwen sent it three times in a row, but they are fine, but Yan Fu is tired of being tossed and goes back directly

Have a good rest. However, this reminded Li Hao that he had to stay in the imperial examination for a long time. In the past, he heard that a scholar fainted in the room and was carried out after the end.

Just in case, it seems that physical exercise is on the agenda, and who doesn’t have a dream of martial arts? Maybe he’s still talented when he comes through it.

After two days, Yan Fu recovered and ran to the academy to visit his master. When Li Hao saw it, he asked, "Senior Brother, are you nervous now? The results will be released in a few days."

Yan Fu said, "All the exams have been completed. Now I am lucky to get it, but I am lucky to lose it. What's there to worry about?"

Yan Jingwen also said: "Senior brother is very talented. If you want to pass this provincial examination, there will be no problem. There is really no need to worry."

After hearing this, Li Hao said, "The second senior brother is too serious. I believe in senior brother. Just kidding. When the list is released, we will go and see it together. Then congratulate the senior brother on the spot."

On the day of the release date, in order not to crowd the original, Li Hao specially called the two of them early, sat down in the restaurant next to the Gongyuan, and then asked Cheng Dong to guard it. After a while, he saw Cheng Dong look happy.

They rushed over and everyone knew that they had passed the exam.

Sure enough, Cheng Dong said after arriving, "Congratulations to young master, you ranked 12th, won the first place in one go, and will be awarded the imperial examination next year, and the Chan Palace will win the imperial examination." Li Hao laughed and said, "Cheng Dong's words are auspicious, you

I'll get rewards."

Yan Fu smiled and said, "That's natural. Your young master will add you monthly and go back to you."

Then Li Hao and Yan Jingwen also congratulated each other, and then the three of them went to report the good news to the Master.

After the wedding, Yan Fu happily took the two away and went to drink. While drinking, Li Hao asked, "Senior Brother, when are you going to go to Beijing?"

Yan Fu said: "The specific date has not been decided. If nothing unexpected happens, it will probably be at the end of October. Then we will invite a few scholars to go to Beijing together."

After hearing this, Yan Jingwen said, "It's better to have more time, and he can also participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting. It's not easy to miss."

Li Hao was really curious about this Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting. He kept listening to everyone saying that it didn’t feel like an ordinary poetry meeting, but rather like a literary event.

Li Hao planned to ask, "Is this poem different? It feels unusual to see you like this."

I thought it would be Yan Fu's words, but this time Yan Jingwen was even more excited and said, "The poetry meeting is still a poetry meeting, but the hosts are different. This was hosted by Mr. Yongshu himself."

Li Hao asked, "Mr. Yong, it seems that he is the current governor of Yangzhou. Is there anything special about him?"

Yan Jingwen said: "Mr. Yongshu, the literati Qingliu, has created a new literary style. He also presided over the Qingli New Policy with Mr. Xiwen, inspiring innovation, and serving as a model for our country. A few days ago, he wrote the Drunken Old Man Pavilion.

The melody of the body is unique, and the whole article describes the scenery, using a simple brushstroke, but it directly follows the "the joy of the prefect" and the musical phrases are the foundation. On that day, the people in the Qing Dynasty and the people were harmonious, and the scene of having fun with the people was overflowing beyond the brush and ink.

How could you not know?”

After hearing this, Li Hao was stunned and said, "The drunkard's intention is not about wine, but about the mountains and rivers. Mr. Yong is Ouyang Xiu."

Yan Jingwen said, "Yes, Mr. Yong Shu's surname is Ouyang, and his single name is Xiu, and his name is Yong Shu. Don't you know?"

Li Hao said: "I am ignorant and ignorant. My fault, can I participate in this poem?" Li Hao thought to himself, this is the first celebrity I have seen in time traveling through ancient times. The Drunken Old Man's Pavilion had to be recited in the full text.

Yan Jingwen said: "Our teacher met Mr. Yong Shu back then, and we will definitely go to the poetry meeting. We will go with the teacher at that time."

Then the three of them said yes in unison, and as soon as the poetry meeting was approaching, Yan Fu received a letter from his father. It turned out that his brother Yan Fu had passed the provincial examination, and this time the letter was to let him go

Yan Fu rushed to Bianjing to meet them, saying that he had invited an old scholar to class for the two brothers in Bianjing, and also explained the reason to the Master. Because time was rushing, Yan Fu had to say goodbye to Master Qin.

leave.

So on the day of the poetry meeting, only Yan Jingwen and Li Hao followed Master Qin to Pingshan Hall to attend. It is said that Pingshan Hall can be called: the ancient temple is open high and the ancient temple is filled with beautiful places. The green snails are floating on the sea.

The sky turns into the south of the Yangtze River. The rain is dark and the flowers are shallow and small, and the wind is soaked and the sake is rising. If tourists talk about the beauty of the arrival of the river, they must be the first view of Huaidong.

However, Li Hao and Yan Jingwen had no time to see the scenery. Yan Jingwen was nervous about meeting his idol, while Li Hao was excited about meeting a celebrity, which made Master Qin look strange. It was just because both of them were calm and objective people.

, Such a state is rare.
