Cheng Xue frowned upon hearing this, sat across from him in puzzlement, and asked:
"Isn't there just one palace test before? Why did it suddenly change to three. Besides, there are all empresses and princesses in the palace. If you are of the right age to bring your son into the palace, I'm afraid it's not the rules."

"Don't worry, sister, the harem is eighty battles away from the front, and there is no connection at all. Unless someone tricks you. Brother, remember, you can't go if anyone calls you, even if it's someone in the palace who calls you, then you can't go." You have to call me even when you go to the latrine, if it’s not me, don’t go even Zhou Fei, you must be on guard.”

Li Hui understood the importance of this and nodded, not daring to neglect it.

The meat skewers are on the table, and everyone chats while eating.Talking about Mr. Pang and Wen Tian, ​​Xiao Qinglin laughed out loud "Pfft—"

"According to my brother, that Wentian was detained by Mr. Pang and didn't let him go. Although he didn't say anything, I can see his concern for my brother. Another thing is that my father Tell me, the reason why our exam questions are so tricky is that the Hanshou of the Imperial Academy, that is, Mr. Pang, came out.

The purpose is to see if the candidates can withstand the pressure.In previous years, there were 100 people in the palace examination, three sessions, a period of five days, and they did not live in the palace.This time, the fifteen days probably included the real test, that is to say, even if we don’t write a word, we can enter the palace test as long as we take part in all five games. "

As a result, there are only 86 candidates in the fifth round, which is not enough for a hundred people.

The corners of Li Hui's mouth twitched when he heard this, his complexion was not good.

"No, it won't be so casual."

"Casual is definitely casual. I'm afraid that the imperial examination for half a month will be the real test questions. The imperial court is not short of officials. It is estimated that our morality, integrity, life and other aspects will be taken into consideration. I don't know how to wash clothes, these few days Learn from my sister-in-law, and don't affect your grades."

"Say it as if you know how to do it." Li Hui was not convinced.

He used to be unable to take care of himself in some aspects of life, but he was completely fine.

When Xiao Qinglin heard this, she was rather proud——

"Brother, don't you know me, but I was thrown into the military camp by my father. Although it was only five days, I have learned to wash clothes and make beds. When this place officially opens, I will take you to the patrol camp in the city. Stay away Two days."

This was exactly what Li Hui wanted, he nodded in response, and actively pushed the meat skewers in front of him.

The topic about the palace examination ended, and Xiao Qinglin talked about interesting places near the suburbs of Beijing.He said seven or eight in one breath, there are mountains, water, and temples, anyway, it depends on how they want to play.

"... You can play whatever you want, just take me with you, otherwise it will be very annoying to be nagged by my mother at home."

It's not that he's unfilial, it's that his mother was so eager to have a grandson that she did such absurd things.He only found out later that his mother had been here, but his sister-in-law didn't mention a word, so he didn't know how to deal with it. Anyway, he was him, and his mother was his mother.

He didn't hide his current difficulties. He told the matter of being "forced into marriage" without reservation, and he sold it miserably.

Cheng Xue didn't intend to mention his mother's visit at first, let alone mention it now.She has already told Bai Shao that Guanshi Zhang is not a talkative person, and no one at home would know.

After dinner, Xiao Qinglin went to Pang's mansion to see if Mr. Pang was back.He also made an appointment with them to go to the teahouse to meet at Shenshi, and the free time was just left for Li Tian and Li Huai to rest at noon, the arrangement was clear.

After sending Xiao Qinglin away, Li Hui took Yan Yixin and Li Heng to the second courtyard on the main street. After Cheng Xue put the two siblings to sleep, she also told the person that the red deed was Li Yue's name.I thought she would be surprised, but I didn't expect her to be very calm. After asking, I found out that the two of them had agreed a long time ago.

Seeing this, Cheng Xue nodded slowly, and said softly:
"In more than two years, you should be married. Then you should get engaged first. Don't worry about getting married. Wait for him to pass the exam. Mother will also save some dowry for you during this time, so that you can be confident."

Li Yue flung herself into her mother's arms in embarrassment——

"Mom, I'm still young."

It's one thing to be honest with your mother, it's another to talk about your marriage.

Cheng Xue smiled and hugged her tightly, rubbing her back one after another.Apart from being willing to think too much, there is nothing wrong with her. She and Yan Yixin grew up together, and with the fact that they both had a normal childhood, they cherish each other, and the days will get better and better in the future, and they cherish each other very much.

On the day when the fifth round of the examination ended, every tea house, restaurant, flower house, etc. in the capital was overcrowded.Those who went to Beijing to rush for the exam survived the four most difficult rounds, and the last round was considered handy, and those from a wealthy family naturally came out to celebrate.

Xiao Qinglin went out with Li Hui's family to indulge, and saw many princes from aristocratic families in the capital. He specially picked some good ones to recommend to Li Hui.

It's fine for both parties to exchange pleasantries and make a good face.

There are night stalls on the three major main streets of the capital. The family walked around for more than half an hour and ate a lot of snacks in the capital before heading home by car.Xiao Qinglin also came back directly, pretending to take them out to climb the mountain next day, but in fact he just hid away and didn't want to think about home.

Li Hui understood his situation very well, after all, he also came here at that time.After graduating, I went home during my first holiday in the military camp. Before I finished my meal, I was frightened by the six blind dates arranged by my mother.Of course, he was also rebellious, he didn't go for a game, and he didn't dare to go home immediately after taking a break after the fight, he would go back after playing outside enough.

Who ever thought that in the ancient times of our ancestors, there were forced marriages, didn't they say "the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker"?

After Cheng Xue finished drawing, she dried the ink and said:
"Hey, how about putting the back room and warm pavilion on the kang, I still think the kang is comfortable."

"...Ah? What?"

Seeing the absent-minded look on his face, Cheng Xue got up and walked to the bed.

"Why, worry about staying in the palace for half a month? You should be fine, you know better than them. Besides, I'll bring you some extra silver as a reward. Money can turn ghosts around. Come to think of it. They won't make it hard for you."

A person who knows how to hide clumsiness will not attract attention.

Hearing this, Li Hui pulled her into his arms, and shared with her the embarrassing thing he remembered just now.

"Then what happened afterwards? Didn't your mother rush with you because you didn't go to see your mother?"

"I must be anxious, but with my grandfather helping to cover, it's useless to be anxious. Later, my mother saw that she couldn't hold me back, so she ignored me."

Having said that, Li Hui rubbed her lips for a moment, then said sadly:
"On the second night of the fifth scene, I was sleeping and dreaming and dreamed that I was going back. In the dream, I was lying on the hospital bed, and my mother and grandfather were guarding me. I don't know if it is you in the next bed, but there is someone anyway."

"It's just that you are under too much pressure and fantasies appear in your dreams. Go to the temple another day to burn incense and chant a few words, and then you hang a few prayer notes for your relatives over there."

There is no real use, just for comfort...

Thank you for the monthly pass from Xingyuanxinyu, okay?
