Queen of the Black Phoenix

Chapter 185
The stars twinkled.

Ordinary day.

Before dawn, the first thing a servant of an official's family wakes up is to clean up his master's feces.

The night's savings, the shit bucket, the urine bucket, are all full.

Although it is covered with silk or woolen cloth, the richer people still burn expensive incense.

Of course, no matter how you cover it up, it's filled with excrement.

The servant had to take it and pour it out.

The old man who collects feces and urine, wearing a mask, pushes a cart, passing by one by one before dawn.

By the time he finished collecting them all, the sky was already dark.

It's not quiet.

There are more and more pedestrians on the street.

Of course, most of them are hard-working people. Those rich and powerful people generally don't get up so early.

The old man pushing the cart, although wearing a mask, showed up every day, so he was an acquaintance, occasionally nodding and saying hello to passers-by.

I saw a few well-dressed men posting things in front of the imperial list.

The old man was illiterate, but looking at the pasted piece of paper, it actually required three men, two for support, and one for sticking glue.

Seeing the three men twisting their bodies and disappearing into the morning light, the old man felt envious again.

Continue to push the cart.

The old man pushes the cart and walks out of the city. No matter how late it is, others will not be able to bear the strong smell and will definitely be scolded.

The old man left the city, and the city became lively.

It was also dawn.

Slowly, people stood in front of the imperial list.

There are people from Shen and other countries.

Shen Guo is now the most powerful country, rich and strong, and the world is in power, and Shencheng is the most prosperous city in Shen State. People of different races appear in the city, and everyone is not surprised.

"Kai Enke? Brother Hu, is there any important event for Shen Guo to celebrate? Could it be your empress dowager's birthday?"

Under the emperor's list, a businessman wearing Shen Guo's robes, but his facial features were obviously from a foreign race asked.

Shen Guo emphasizes agriculture and suppresses business, and the status of a businessman is not very high. This person has profound facial features and a pointed nose. He is not from Shen Guo. When he opened his mouth, the people around him showed sarcasm first, and then began to explain.

"The empress dowager passed away a long time ago. The Kai Enke mentioned here is to pray for the princess." Others helped to explain.

"A princess in your Shen Kingdom is so valued. For the sake of the princess, the emperor actually gave Enke?" The foreign businessman looked shocked.

Not only him, but at the same time, almost all other people in Shanghai felt the same way.

Isn't Shen Guo always known for his filial piety?

It is said that Shen Guo's parents were born to be the boss, and they were pushed by their children to be the boss.

Improperly being the boss is not enough, either parent or parent closes their eyes and kicks their legs, and the son of a high-ranking official will go home. to remember you.

In this way, the status of parents is extremely high, while the status of children is extremely low.

But Shenhuang actually opened Enke because of the princess's illness, which depends on how much he likes and values ​​the princess.

This princess is different from others.

Absolutely different.

Originally, he thought that Shen Huangyu would receive great opposition for agreeing to Enke because of Princess Yiren's coma, but he didn't expect that Shen Guo's officials, this time unanimously, agreed.

The imperial list has been posted, and this matter is settled.

Shen Huangyu has always been a person who doesn't see the big picture, and is quite confused.

The national teacher said that if Enke was turned on, Princess Yiren would wake up, so he silently waited for the princess to wake up, and if she couldn't wake up, he would ask the national teacher to settle the score.

All kinds of people were crowded under the imperial list, among them was a middle-aged man with long hair.

The man's hair was scattered and draped straight over his shoulders, and he was wearing a long gown, which was also very casual.

The genius was bright, but he smelled of alcohol all over, and had a big belch.

The person in front of him took a few steps back holding his nose.

With great difficulty, he squeezed in, and finally squeezed out, and stumbled back to a restaurant not far away.

Seeing him coming, the waiter at the restaurant said excitedly, "Your Majesty Wang, you got up early today, so I'm going to warm you a pot of good wine?"

When Xiaoer saw this person, his eyes were shining brightly. This person was a big spender. He lived in their restaurant. He made friends with any customers who liked him. He often paid the bills for other guests. Almost everyone in the restaurant know him.

"No, get me a bucket of hot water, I want to take a bath." He casually gave a small silver and said.

Xiaoer took the silver, nodded and bowed, laughing so hard that he couldn't close his legs.

Hastily ran to arrange.

"Daguan Wang has a bucket of hot water, let's go to the room..." Xiaoer shouted in a tone.

Wang Daguan is none other than Wang Ruyi, the third master.

After bidding farewell to Chen Yuyu that day, he chose this restaurant and stayed.

I don't do other things every day, just drink and chat with others.

This restaurant is the closest to the imperial palace, and the people who come and go the most are some low-level officials and small officials. The third leader is bold, witty, and knowledgeable, and soon became the star of this restaurant.

Those officials, petty officials and patrol officers would come to this restaurant to have a drink and chat with each other from time to time.

Their status is low, and they are not taken seriously. When they meet such a bold person, they seem to be scholars.

The third family took a hot bath and tidied up grandly.

When combing his hair in front of the mirror, he originally wanted to leave a strand of hair down to cover half of his eyebrows.

On the mountain, when he wanted to see Wuliang, he would comb his hair like this.

But at this moment, after thinking about it, he combed all his hair up, took out an eyebrow pencil, and carefully painted on the missing half of the eyebrow by himself.

But I still feel a little uncomfortable looking at it.

I am used to seeing half of my eyebrows, but I am not used to having more of them.

He looked at himself in the mirror, and felt a little ridiculous. It would be great if Wuliang could help him draw eyebrows one day, and he didn't know what Wuliang was doing at the moment.

Obviously he was looking in the mirror, but the third master saw countless figures in the mirror.

He closed the mirror, showing a warm smile.

walked out of his room.

It was already noon, and it was the time when the restaurant was busy.

All the officials and servants came to eat.

Seeing the Wang Daguan who has appeared, of course this name is the name of the juniors, and everyone else knows that this person is Wang Ruyi.

There is another word called Yiping.

Although the people who came here were all low-level officials, they still had a sense of superiority over the white body.

Everyone greeted each other.

"Brother Ruyi, didn't you drink today?"

"Brother Yiping, you are well dressed today, which lady are you meeting with?"

"Brother Wang, Brother Wang, would you like to have a drink?"

The restaurant is very lively, with greetings one after another.

The Third House and all the guests inside looked familiar.

He can talk to anyone with a smile.

"Today, I will be responsible for all the food and drink in the store. To be honest, my brothers, I, Wang Ruyi, have spent my whole life in a muddle. Seeing that the imperial court has opened Enke, I plan to try my luck. I won't pass the exam. I can't." Disgrace to the brothers."

Everyone cheered when he finished speaking.

The main thing is to cheer, today I can eat and drink for free again.

Good words don't flow out like money.

"Brother Yiping will definitely be able to go to high school..."

"Brother Wang, your face is beyond words, and I need you to support me more in the future."

"Brother Ruyi, we will be colleagues from now on..."

Everyone was laughing and laughing, as if it was a joke, the main thing is that the National Science Examination is really too difficult.

In Enke held every three years, there are only three first-class Jinshi, and these three have the opportunity to enter the imperial court. To become an official in a local area, it is basically difficult to enter the court system, and those who fail to pass the exam can only be officials or join the army.

Shen Guo is also well-known for its culture and education. Shen Guo's Enke competition is very fierce. It is said that Shen Guo, a scholar who has landed, can easily enter the first class in other countries.

The owner of the restaurant was sitting behind the case, holding an abacus, and quickly calculated. This Wang Daguan, among other things, is really good at communicating. In the past, there were always more or less quarrels in his restaurant. , his restaurant is peaceful, there is no more quarrel, and the business has improved a lot.

As for this, even if this Wang Daguan fails the exam, he will not miss it. He asked Xiaoer to be a drunk duck and send it up, which is considered a free gift.
