Zhao Xiyan read the letter twice more before writing a reply.
Jizhou is a long way away and it is very inconvenient to send letters back and forth. This was the first time she wrote to Xu Jing.
The soldiers who had been waiting outside the hospital for half a day filled their stomachs and rested for two hours. They stuffed Zhao Xiyan's autographed letter into their arms and immediately rode away.
Zhao Suxin came over and saw a smile on Zhao Xiyan's lips. She smiled and joked: "How do you feel when you received a letter from the Crown Prince today?"
Zhao Xiyan was not shy, she pursed her lips and smiled and said, "I feel very happy."
Zhao Suxin also smiled, and soon sighed: "The imperial court is fighting everywhere, and people are uneasy. Even Chunwei is disturbed and people are panicked."
Spring Festival, which happens every three years, is the great talent promotion ceremony of the country. Scholars all over the world are looking forward to Spring Festival High School.
However, there were many wars in the Jin Dynasty, and this year's Spring Festival was also greatly affected. Jizhou's move to merge the states was the most unlucky. Because of the war, there were many people in chaos on the road, and it was quite dangerous when traveling. Some of them failed to reach the capital in time.
Others were killed by bandits on the way and lost their lives.
In the examination room in the spring of this year, there were hundreds of candidates who did not come to take the exam.
The Chunwei exam has been completed, and the results will be released in two days. Wu Shao went to attend a cultural gathering with a group of classmates and friends today. Zhao Suxin felt uneasy and came to talk to Zhao Xiyan.
"I don't know if he can pass the exam in this subject." Zhao Suxin said in a low voice.
In his previous life, Wu Shao died early in Beihai County and had no chance to take part in the autumn and spring exams. Zhao Xiyan didn’t know whether he could pass the exam this year. However, at this time, he would definitely say something nice to comfort his cousin: “Fifth brother-in-law studies hard.
After many years, I will definitely be able to go to high school this year.”
Zhao Suxin chuckled lightly and lowered her voice quietly: "Huo Yan came to the Zhao Mansion today and said he was attending a cultural gathering with my husband. He was a little distracted today, probably because he wanted to see you. He kept talking to me, but he was blocked by my husband."
When Huo Yan was mentioned, Zhao Xiyan's eyes suddenly turned cold: "I really don't want to see him."
Zhao Suxin was a little strange: "Yue Ya'er, why do you hate Huo Yan so much?"
After Huo Yan arrived in the capital, he came to Zhao's house several times. Zhao Xiyan always avoided seeing him.
The Huo and Zhao families are close family friends. Even though there is no love between men and women, they still have the friendship that they grew up with and the friendship between seniors.
Zhao Xiyan didn't want to say more and naturally used Xu Jing as a shield: "The prince is very jealous and doesn't want me to see him."
Zhao Suxin did not doubt that he was there and laughed: "If I were the heir, I would like to hide you."
When I was in Beihai County, there were countless young men who were in love with Zhao Xiyan. After arriving in the capital, things got much better. Firstly, Zhao Xiyan and Xu Jing were engaged and they were girls to be married. Secondly, Zhao Xiyan
I go out very rarely and have almost no contact with foreign men.
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled, then changed the subject: "Master Luo is also attending the Spring Festival this time. In a few months, Qin Yao will marry into the Luo family. By then, we can get together in the capital."
Zhao Suxin smiled and said: "Master Luo is famous for his talents and is very popular. In today's literary meeting, there is Master Luo. By the way, there is also Master Meng, who is also a well-known talent. Everyone says that this subject is a must-win."
of."
Mr. Luo's full name is Luo Hong, and he is Ye Qanyao's fiance.
Mr. Meng's full name is Meng Siyuan, and he is the eldest son of the well-known Meng family. Meng Siyuan's maiden name is Yu, and he and Su Jin's mother are sisters. This talented Meng is also Su Jin's cousin.
After talking for a long time, Wu Shao came back in the evening.
Wu Shao was both a senior brother and a serious brother-in-law. There was no need to avoid any taboos and he came directly to pick up his wife back to his small courtyard.
The young couple had only been married for a few months, and it was the time when the honey was mixed with the oil. When Zhao Suxin saw Wu Shao, her eyes were bright: "Didn't you say you wanted to have dinner out? Why are you back so early?"
Wu Shao grinned at his wife: "The literary meeting is over. They all went to Huafang. I didn't want to go, so I came back."
It is not unusual for a talented and romantic man to go to a brothel to paint a boat.
However, Wu Shaojie took good care of himself and never went to the land of fireworks.
Zhao Suxin felt very happy and looked at Wu Shao lovingly.
Zhao Xiyan coughed and opened her mouth to urge: "You should go back quickly!"
She and Xu Jing have been separated for more than a month, and they miss each other so much. It's hard to see others being so loving.
Wu Shao smiled shamelessly, took Zhao Suxin's hand and left. Zhao Xiyan couldn't help but dig out the letters she had hidden during the day and read them again.
…
Two days later, Chunwei released the results.
In this subject, a total of 300 Jinshi will be awarded in the Spring Festival. The 300 people who pass the general examination will have the palace examination next to determine the final ranking.
However, as a rule, these three hundred people will be selected and will not be dismissed.
Wu Shao's ranking was not high, but he was ranked one more than Sun Shankan, ranked 299. He and his wife Zhao Yuanming were ranked first in high school, which was incomparable. In the end, they passed the exam.
Wu Shao was very happy and immediately wrote a letter back to Beihai County to announce the good news.
The Zhao Mansion specially set up several tables of banquets to celebrate his uncle.
All my classmates from Beihai County came here in the same year. Among those who rushed to take the exam, there were as many as ten people who passed the exam this time, eight of whom came from Zhao Yuanming's sect.
Huo Yan also passed the exam. Surprisingly, Huo Yan's ranking was not high, ranking 135th. Before the Chunwei exam started, Huo Yan was ambitious and aimed for the top spot. The result
After receiving such a ranking in the exam, you can imagine how depressed I felt.
Among the Beihai County examinations, Xie Lingfeng, the eldest son of Governor Xie, ranked highest. Xie Lingfeng, who had an average ranking in the autumn examination last year, ranked 19th in this examination.
Xie Lingfeng also came to the Zhao Mansion for a banquet today. Also coming with him was his wife Xu Ying.
Xu Ying is seven months pregnant, and her generous dress cannot cover her bulging belly. Xu Ying is very happy that her husband, Chunwei, is in high school. Today, there is a banquet hosted by Zhao Mansion, and Xu Ying also came with her husband.
On such a good day, Zhao Xiyan would naturally show up.
She didn't dress up deliberately, and was dressed in ordinary clothes. Her eyebrows were unpainted but dark, her lips were unpointed but red, her skin was as white as snow, and her black hair was like a waterfall. She stole everyone's attention as soon as she appeared.
Huo Yan looked at her intently.
Counting the days, the last time I saw her was the day she got married. It had been ten months since I last saw her.
Only he himself understands the feeling of longing for someone, and the pain of not getting what he wants.
Huo Yan secretly clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and mustered up the courage to step forward: "Sister Zhao Liu, I haven't seen you for several months, and you are fine."
Zhao Xiyan glanced over lightly with her wonderful eyes. In front of everyone, she would not say bad words, so she smiled faintly: "Congratulations to Brother Huo Shi, Chunwei High School."
"After passing the imperial examination, it's time for Brother Huo Shi to return to Beihai County to get married!"
