Chapter 187
On the ninth day of February, there was only a tail left in the cold spring. The students got up early to prepare, eat and read books. The early shops, teahouses and bookstores in the capital opened their doors early. The bookstore also prepared a lot of books. Baskets were given to passing students rushing to take the exam. Pedestrians and street vendors greeted the students warmly and sent their own blessings. This morning was tense and full of vitality.

Before the time to enter the arena, many students were already waiting outside, mostly with a basket at their feet, while they were squatting on the ground holding a book in one hand and eating pancakes in the other.

As the time drew nearer, the number of people gradually increased, and the carriages came and stopped one after another. Parents, servants, and even wives who were taking the exam wiped their sweat, exhorted them, and nagged repeatedly. Some people were helpless. Some people responded repeatedly, others were sweating coldly, some even got dizzy before the exam started, forgot all the important knowledge, and kept muttering "what to do" and "what to do".

This is what Wang Xingzhi saw along the way when he came. His residence is not far from here, and he came not too early or too late. Everything was arranged and he walked here just in time to check and enter the venue. I am familiar with the classmates, and the rest of the test takers and test takers are unknown.

Looking back, Wang Xingzhi shook his head and stood at the end of the line waiting to enter.

Just when Wang Xingzhi was about to be inspected, he suddenly heard "Brother Xingzhi". Even though the crowd was noisy, the voice of the call was clear, and it just pierced through the chaos and fell into his ears clearly.

Wang Xingzhi looked back suddenly, only to see a person outside the crowd, wearing a green shirt, bathed in the rising sun, smiling and waving to him, "May your Toad Palace win the crown!"

The smile stained the pupils of the eyes along the rising sun, Wang Xingzhi felt that the sky was a bit brighter today, so he didn't have time to hold back the stained smile on his lips, so he could only wave his hands to Ember and hurriedly entered the venue.

When there were no more people in sight, Ember slowly retreated from the low table in the teahouse, Lian Ying quickly swept the dust, Yuan Yue set the bowls, and Lian Shuang came late with a teapot just in time.

Fortunately, this place was lively, and people's attention was mostly focused on the students who were about to take the exam, so the indecent behavior of Ember standing on the table did not attract too many people's attention.

After saying hello and drinking tea, after a short rest, the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving only the officers and soldiers standing guard at the door, Yu Jin dropped a piece of silver and got up, straightened his clothes, and said to the three of them, "Lian Ying and Lian Shuang follow me." Go to the city gate, Yuan Yue, will you go with us or go back to rest?"

Since you asked this way, it means that there is no official business, you can follow, Yuanyue jumped up suddenly, and said with a smile: "Of course I went with the young master!"

Ember took the lead and took two steps, then went back to communicate with the boss of the teahouse, and when she came back, she ordered Lian Ying and the other three to move the low stool they had just sat on. Lian Ying and Lian Shuang moved it alone Two of them stuck behind Ember, but Yuanyue couldn't figure it out, "Young Master, what do you mean?"

Lian Ying shook her head and said, "We don't know either, but since the Young Master has ordered, we will do as we please."

However, this doubt was quickly resolved. When they reached the city gate, Ember found a corner that would not hinder pedestrians from entering and exiting, but had a wide view and was convenient for observation, so they put down their benches, and then sat in a row at the city gate. There were also quite a few people resting their feet, but the four of them like Ember and his party were still unique, attracting countless weird eyes.

"My lord, what shall we do next?"

Different from Lian Ying and Lian Shuang's magnanimity and naturalness, Yuan Yue felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Dao Dao.

"Wait."

"Are you waiting for someone important?"

"Important, but not important."

What matters is to her, what doesn't matter is to others.

But Yuanyue still couldn't understand, what kind of answer is this, is it important or not?

If she couldn't figure it out, she stopped thinking about it, Yuan Yue shook her head, and continued to sit upright.

Seeing Yuanyue's discomfort, Ember asked Yuanyue to go back and tidy up a yard. On the way back, she went to a clothing store to buy two pieces of clothes worn by teenage girls, and put them in after the yard was tidied up.

Yuanyue took the bulging money bag, "Which young lady wants to come to live in the house for a while?" She is the cousin who often comes to the house to enjoy the autumn breeze.

Thinking of this Miss Cousin, Yuan Yue couldn't help frowning, "Master, is it Miss Cousin who came here today?"

"What kind of expression do you have!" Ember looked at her and couldn't help laughing, and tapped Yuanyue's forehead with her fingers, "It's not her, go back quickly."

As soon as she heard that it was not, Yuanyue immediately beamed with joy, and did not ask who it was. She jumped up and down happily and headed towards the city. Looking at Yuanyue's joyful appearance, not only Ember, Lian Ying and Lian Shuang The two couldn't help but smile when they saw it.

Lian Ying: "I'm still a child."

Lian Shuang nodded in agreement, but no, he was still a child.

Yu Jin, Lian Ying and Lian Shuang are all in their twenties now, compared to Yuan Yue, who is only in her teens, they naturally regard themselves as elders, looking at Yuan Yue is like looking at children.

But let Ember say that age does not represent everything, just like that guy Cui Shexi, who is obviously one year older than her, but the silly traits and innocence on his body make him keep it The vigor of a young man makes her look at Cui Shexi always feeling that she is not looking at an elder brother, but a younger brother.

Thinking of Cui Shexi, Ember couldn't help but groan in her heart, wondering what Cui Shexi has become now, is she still innocent and cute?
The communication is always not timely. The length of the time difference depends on the receiver's personal estimation ability except for the luck factor. If it is short, it can be controlled within one day, and if it is long, it is not uncommon for the difference to be three or two days.

Obviously, Ember was lucky, and her guessing ability was not bad, but after sitting at the gate of the city for two hours, the waiting people arrived.

Although it had been a long time since they had seen each other, Ember recognized the young girl full of vigor at a glance.

While joy welled up in my heart, the heart that I mentioned was slowly put back.

Safe.

It was the time of the day when the sun was at its heaviest, although it was not as hot as summer, but with running all the way and carrying a person on his back from time to time, Teng Yanjun was very tired when he arrived in the imperial city, and his forehead was covered with fine sweat.

Raising his arm and wiping it with his sleeve, Teng Yanjun stood at the gate of the city, looking up at this ancient and majestic city, with a smile on his face.

"Bingrui, we're here!"

Bingrui bent over and panted heavily, and when she heard this, she sat on the ground with a relaxed whole body, and said weakly: "It's finally here."

Thank goodness it took her life!
Although I have fantasized about what the capital city looks like before, and how the city walls are different from what my sister said before, Teng Yanjun is now full of joy and urgency to see her old friend, and she just stares straight ahead with all her heart, how can she have any thoughts? Enjoy the scenery around you.

So Ember saw Teng Yanjun, but Teng Yanyun did not notice Ember sitting in the corner.

 Thank you Youjue for the recommendation ticket!
