Chapter 196
Cui Youxiong was a little excited from the moment he saw Jiang Baoyu take out the cotton.

This is the one. Last year, during the coldest winter, he led his soldiers to fight bitterly against the Zhao people. This was what was used in the winter clothes worn by the Zhao people.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, lurking in the snowy sky, those Zhao people could still remain motionless, not even moving their feet.

Looking at the soldiers of Dayan, they could barely lift their frozen arms.

If he hadn't given the order to die with a flash of brain, he would have almost collapsed there himself.

Didn't expect this white baby to have already existed in Dayan?
Cui Youxiong was so excited that he almost stood up, but because of Shui Hanzhou's presence, he kept pressing himself.

Before coming here, they all made bets. After seeing a round of candidates' works, they bet on what they think is the first name.

If Cui Youxiong wins, Shui Hanzhou will get out of the Ministry of War.

If that brat from the Shui family wins, he will go back to Yanmen Pass and never interfere with the affairs of the Ministry of War.

It's a joke, Cui Youxiong may not understand what kind of five-color clothes these dolls are going to make.

But this time what the dolls are going to do is clearly military uniforms, and they are military uniforms for the soldiers of the Northland.

Has he ever been to the Northland?
Suffered there?Have you ever eaten the sand there?
Can he understand military uniforms better than Cui Youxiong?

So when the emperor said that he wanted to bet on this, he agreed at that time.

This is clearly the emperor's consideration for his old age, and he was embarrassed to refute his wife's face, so he came up with a way to help him.

So he must hold back at this moment, Duan can't let that kid Shui Hanzhou see that what Jiang Baoyu has in his hand is what their Northern soldiers need most.

So at this moment Zheng Siyi always looked at him, so he smiled awkwardly: "It looks delicious, that-- when will the examiner serve dinner?"

Zheng Siyi: "..."

Tianyi has been sitting next to Shui Hanzhou. Although he is not an examiner, he just came to observe, but his identity is there, and it is impossible for Zheng Siyi not to ask him for instructions.

"Director Tianyi, the Bureau of Shangfu has indeed prepared meals for the examiners, but they are all simple and light meals, and I'm afraid they won't catch the eyes of the three adults. I wonder if the three adults will arrange the meals by themselves, or will they eat with me?"

With two big men sitting beside him, Tian Yi naturally didn't dare to be good at it, so he immediately asked Shui Hanzhou beside him for instructions.

Out of politeness, Shui Hanzhou didn't want to cause trouble, so he replied with a smile: "Since we are also examiners, we have the same standards as you examiners. Let's eat and drink together."

Zheng Siyi felt relieved, nodded, and ordered someone to bring food.

But it's just a few plates of dry snacks, plus a bowl of tea, not even a piece of meat.

Seeing Shui Hanzhou suddenly lost his appetite, Cui Youxiong was even more disgusted, and threw the food he took a bite back to the plate.

"I'm just eating these tasteless dry food outside. It's so easy to go back to the capital and eat this? Is this still the emperor's palace?"

Zheng Siyi frowned, although he didn't know the identity of the adult beside him, he also knew that he was not easy to mess with, so he had to patiently explain to him.

"Returning to my lord, I am a mere sixth-rank female official, and I have standards in food. It is also during the exam period, so I choose this kind of dry food that is easy to carry to satisfy my hunger. If my lord can't swallow it, how about -"

"Stop fooling me!"

Cui Youxiong was a little unhappy, and subconsciously pointed to Jiang Baoyu and said, "Then a mere maid in the palace can have these delicious foods. You are a female official, and the food is not as good as hers?"

Zheng Siyi looked at Jiang Baoyu's tablecloth, and swallowed silently.

But he still said without blushing and heartbeat: "To tell the truth, my lord, what you eat now is what us sixth-rank female officials usually eat on a vegetarian basis, and if you were an ordinary little palace maid, you still wouldn't be able to eat these things.

Although the lower official is an official, he is only a poor official, and his salary for one year is no more than the girl's meal expenses.

Even if I occasionally eat meat on weekdays, it's all thanks to that girl. "

After Cui Youxiong and Shui Hanzhou heard this, they subconsciously looked at the other young maids, and saw that they were all silently eating buns, and Jiang Baoyu, who was still slurping while chatting and laughing with friends, formed a world of love. do not.

The examiners all sighed silently in their hearts.

What a wicked rich man.

But looking at the unappetizing food in front of him, Shui Hanzhou is really hard to swallow, but his stomach is already growling.

He also had no choice but to sigh softly, and looked at Tiandao: "Please Sun Shangshi help prepare it, it's my treat."

Tian grinned one by one, he just likes a master as generous as Shui Hanzhou.

"Okay, I'll go over now, servant girl, and ask Shangshi Bureau to prepare some food for the adults."

"No."

Shui Hanzhou had no choice but to rub Qingming's acupoints and said, "My son means, prepare delicious food for everyone. I will invite you to eat three meals in the past two days."

"This son feels that since it's an exam, and the assistant maids keep coming in and out of the exam room, it's hard to guarantee that there will be no cheating.

Since the food the examinees need has already been provided by this prince, there is no need for these assistants and maids to go out. "

As he spoke, he looked at Zheng Siyi who was sitting in the middle and said, "Please give an order to the palace servants outside the door. Before candidates finish their exams, the assistant maids are no longer allowed to enter or leave."

After Shui Hanzhou finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Baoyu who was joking with Xu Qingmeng.

He noticed that Zhong Qing didn't show up early in the morning.

Because he sent Anzhu to investigate this woman before, he knew very well that this person was deliberately framing Jiang Baoyu.

But Jiang Baoyu was so calm, presumably he responded accordingly.

But there is no guarantee that the person will notice something wrong halfway, and then appear in the examination room to interfere with it. It is more convenient to isolate the person directly from the examination room.

Besides, seeing Jiang Baoyu, Xu Qingmeng, and the assistant little maid, the progress of the three of them eating, the box of food she brought in may not last until tomorrow morning, if he doesn't want to find a way to get some food in, Jiang Baoyu will have it tomorrow hungry.

She doesn't have an assistant, a little maid, and she is making clothes by herself. The possibility of finishing the work and leaving the examination room before tomorrow morning is very slim.

Besides, now that the bad guys are watching, Jiang Baoyu will probably stay in the examination room until the last moment.

"This, isn't this against the rules?"

Just as Zheng Siyi was about to object, she saw Shui Hanzhou's eyes froze, and a terrifying look that she had never seen before swept across her face, and she obediently agreed.

"Yes, I would like to thank my son for your kindness on behalf of everyone."

After Zheng Siyi finished speaking, he took another look at Cui Youxiong who was still yelling about the bad food just now, and Cui Youxiong glared at her.

"What do you think I'm doing? They Dingguo's mansion is richer than me, he wants to treat guests, I have no objection."

Zheng Siyi sighed helplessly, and walked to the door together with Tianyi, carrying out Shui Hanzhou's order.

The debate among the examiners looked like a big battle, but it was actually very quiet and did not affect the candidates' actions in the slightest.

Jiang Baoyu and Xu Qingmeng hardly noticed it, they were still eating with relish.

It wasn't until Zheng Siyi read out the new rules requested by Shui Hanzhou that everyone turned to Jiang Baoyu.

At this moment, other people's assistants, the little maids, have already come in, only Zhong Qing is still missing, I thought she just didn't want to come in for a while, so that Jiang Baoyu would suffer from hunger.

Now it's good, now she can't get in at all.

So, does Jiang Baoyu have to complete such complicated clothes by himself in just one and a half days?
