The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 794 Busy
"This is probably a passage from the outside to the inside." An Yu walked around the tunnel entrance, nodded firmly, and blinked at Sheng Yuan, "So there is no way to go from the inside to the outside."

"..." Sheng Yuan felt the sense of disobedience around him, and suddenly saw An Yu's eyes blinking frequently, and couldn't help but fell silent for a while, "Ah, I didn't bring eyewash today."

Eyewash is a prescription formulated by Tai Hospital in recent years. It has similar efficacy to the eye drops of later generations.

An Yu froze in place, the fan in her hand trembling slightly, as if to condemn.

Everyone lowered their heads in a hurry, trying to hide the shaking of their shoulders.

Sheng Yuan tilted his head in a daze: "So... where is the second passage that must exist?!"

"..." Everyone fainted.

On the contrary, An Yu slowed down, cleared his throat, shook his fan again as if nothing had happened, and nodded: "Sister Yuan is smart! Indeed, this kind of passage is a pair."

When he said this, he became serious, and told the inspection team: "The second passage must go from the inside to the outside, and it cannot be opened from the outside! But when searching, there are no rules at all. Some People will set these two passages very close, but some people will arrange them very far away."

The two captains of the monitoring team nodded: "Let's keep looking!"

Naturally, An Yu and Sheng Yuan didn't need to do it themselves to find the passage, but the two of them were not idle and looked around.

"Sister Yuan, if it were you, where would you arrange the other passage?" An Yu, who couldn't find it, almost pulled out her hair.

"Me?" Sheng Yuan didn't expect him to ask such a question.

However, she still thought about it seriously.

"If it were me... I would definitely put the passage where I most want to go."

"Where do you want to go most?" An Yu was a little confused.

He looked at Sheng Yuan, but met those curved eyes shining with affirmation.

"Oh! I understand!" An Yu jumped up excitedly, shaking Sheng Yuan's hand, "Maybe it's really possible! Come on! Go to the main courtyard of the master's house and start looking from there!"

……

Hui Wang Jiang Yucong led the guards all the way quickly, but he didn't see the shadow of his third brother Jiang Yuming, so he couldn't help but hesitate.

"My lord, further on is the Xuncheng official post, let's ask again!"

Jiang Yucong looked up at the sky, knowing that he was going to settle down at the official post in front of him today.

"Prince Chu? I haven't heard that there is a prince's car passing by." The little official in charge of the reception at the official post listened to the guard's question and thought hard, "However, at noon today, there is a team of extremely majestic people. Riding past, the leading young master looked very dignified, they only rested here for a while and then set off again, I don't know if it is the prince that the nobles are looking for."

When the little official saw the badge of King Hui's mansion, he naturally knew everything, but that was all he remembered.

After hearing his words, King Hui, who had originally suspected that he had let his third brother feint, regained the motivation to chase after him.

Instead, his valet had some doubts: "My lord, I always feel that this is a bit strange. Why does the King of Chu and his party seem to be marching in a hurry?"

Jiang Yucong was sitting on the couch wiping the powdered tea. Hearing this, he smiled lightly: "I understand your concerns, but we came all the way so fast, and the journey to the capital is only two or three days away; but if we want to go back... ...Tomorrow evening is the family banquet, even if we hurry now, we may not be able to arrive before the banquet begins."

When the servant heard this, he immediately knew that his prince knew everything.

"Since the third child is doing well, we don't need to care if it's him who is rushing ahead, we just chase after him."

"If you are the only one absent from the family banquet... I'm afraid everyone will guess wildly." The servant was assigned to King Hui Jiang Yucong by the House of Internal Affairs since childhood. Therefore, he cared more about his safety and future than Jiang Yucong.

"My king's status and future depend on my father, and my father has always been resolute and firm. It is almost delusional for others to slander me and shake my father's mind." After Jiang Yucong said this, he stopped short. Yes, no further analysis.

What he didn't say just now is that now his father is getting older and his sons are getting stronger, and the relationship between father and son, monarch and ministers has become delicate, so he would rather be in a weak position in public opinion than be favored by those ministers, and then twitter to him. Send it to the crown prince.

He hoped that even if one day he was really established as the prince, it would be due to his father's own will, rather than being pushed by those courtiers with momentum and righteousness.

"What's wrong with going back to Beijing? The princess, the little prince and the princess are waiting for me!" Jiang Yucong's face returned to its usual softness, and the joy in his eyes almost showed.

……

Jiang Yuming wanted to cry.

He accidentally knocked over the wine jar presented by the queen, so everything these days was just to clean up.

First, dig out the soil that has absorbed the wine and fill it with new soil to avoid the charming smell of wine.

Although the volatilization of wine is not slow, it is not easy for dozens of tanks of wine to disperse in this area where guests pass by.

He didn't want to be "drunk before drinking" at the family banquet that his father was looking forward to!

"Uncle Jing Wang, my guards have just finished shoveling the soil and started building the platform again. Are you too good at using people?"

King Jing shook his fan, with an expression of "you are very enlightened": "This king gave you a guarantee in front of the emperor, but as I said, you will do your best to make up for it!"

Jiang Yuming felt a toothache seeing him like this.

He didn't understand, the emperor clearly knew that he hadn't left, so why didn't he chase him away?It's fine if you don't chase people away, and you still don't want to see him directly, and every time you order something, you let Uncle Jing pass on the message, which makes him feel uneasy now, for fear that the emperor will hold back some big moves.

"The emperor's sister-in-law not only doesn't care about you, but instead asks you to brew a vat of Lu family's secret wine, what does that mean?"

"Hehe." Jiang Yuming sneered twice.

It is said that the queen is kind and tolerant, not only did not blame him for his reckless behavior, but instead taught him the secret brewing method passed down from his ancestors.

But who ever thought, is he rare?

This big Chu world belongs to his family, he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, how could he care about a secret recipe for wine making.

Besides, the queen has never been in power, so it doesn't make any sense whether she favors him or not.

How about letting his father punish him!

It's good now, the emperor turned a blind eye to him, but he can torment him vigorously, but to make wine, he needs to use both the grain from here and the water from there.

In order to make good wine to satisfy his father, he personally transported the clear spring from the mountain to the mountain according to the order that his father asked Uncle Jing to convey.

"Clear spring water needs to be washed by moonlight, are you ready?"

Jiang Yuming: "!!!"

Although a tank of fine wine cannot be brewed in a few days, he firmly believes that what the emperor wants is attitude!

He can guarantee that there will be an inner guard recording his every word and deed in a place where he can't see it for his father to see!
Tomorrow is a family banquet, if this jar of fine wine doesn't take shape, I'm afraid it will be difficult!
