Chapter 24

After explaining the micro-service matter, Commander Xiao made arrangements within an hour, Mr. Mei's things had already been prepared, but Commander Xiao couldn't think of the sudden extra newlywed wife, who the emperor wanted to pretend to be.

Whispering in his heart, he dutifully presented his identity documents, clothes and even the marriage letter. Seeing that Lord Meng Xiaohou took over the women's clothes without any explanation, Commander Xiao was in a mess.

After a long time of trouble, is the son of Xiaoyao Hou a woman?

Commander Xiao, who hadn't turned the corner, was about to ask, but was forcibly dragged away by Manager Wang and Xiao Xiazi, this elm lump, it's better not to embarrass yourself in front of the emperor.

Meng Xuanyun had never worn women's clothing before, so he patted his chest in response, and Dang even asked a palace official to come over, and after asking clearly, he fiddled with the skirt.Zhao Zheng ordered Commander Xiao to prepare this outfit, which was designed according to his figure, and after he stumbles and puts it on, it is not obtrusive.The palace man had a pair of skillful hands, combed him into an ordinary woman's bun, with some bangs hanging down on his forehead, diluting the original masculine heroism, and painted his eyebrows with powder. A pretty street lady.

Yun'er really couldn't pronounce her husband's name, thinking about the rituals performed by the palace people, she drew a gourd and said a lively blessing according to the same pattern.

"……good."

Zhao Zheng was dazzled by the sight, the young master was thin, and the chest-length skirt would not show any clues, but Zhao Zheng's line of sight was sparked by Yimapingchuan's chest. At the office, if there is no business, I am afraid that Meng Guiren should go to bed again.

Zhao Zheng turned his head stiffly: "There is something missing."

While talking, he picked a small yellow flower that bloomed just right from a branch of winter jasmine in a vase, and inserted it by Yun'er's temple.

What responded to him was Yun'er's lips curled up in a smile.

The scientific examination is just around the corner, and most of the candidates are no longer obsessed with studying all day long. Many of them come to the imperial city for the first time in their life, and choose to travel together before the examination to relax. The imperial city is the most prosperous city in Dayan. There are many places to visit, among which the most popular place for candidates is a famous tea house - Zhuangyuan Building.

The Zhuangyuan Building looks dilapidated from the outside, but the wall inside is full of autographed inscriptions of the previous Zhuangyuan Dukes of the Great Yan Dynasty, which is worthy of the name.I heard that the owner of Zhuangyuan Building is quite business-minded. When he first opened his business, he invited several scholars who were most likely to enter the top three in that year to write inscriptions. At that time, Zhuangyuan Building was not called Zhuangyuan Building. The number one scholar, the teahouse also changed its name and became popular.

Afterwards, some of the bosses asked for the inscriptions of the number one scholar in person, and some came here to inscribe the words and finally became the number one scholar. The most important thing is that they have all the inscriptions. People think that it is a good sign that there are authentic works of the number one scholar here, even if they cannot win the number one. It’s not bad to be a Jinshi in the joyful atmosphere. Scholars love to come to the Zhuangyuan Building for a cup of tea before the exam. The closer the scientific examination is, the more crowded the Zhuangyuan Building will be.

On this day, a young couple came to Zhuangyuan Building.The man is a cool and handsome scholar, his face is like a crown of jade, his eyes are like cold stars, even the tea doctors who have read countless people can't take their eyes away when they see it. It stands to reason that such a beautiful person may not know what kind of celestial beauty he should marry, but it is not the case. The woman who accompanied the scholar could only be regarded as upper-middle-class in terms of appearance, but her figure was slender, with a bit of Xiaojiabiyu's charm, her watery eyes seemed to be able to talk, and she always had a smile on her face. She was affectionate and affectionate. Re holding the scholar's arm, the two of them, one cold and the other hot, matched unexpectedly.

Dr. Tea showed the young couple a seat, poured tea, and after a while, someone sitting next to him who was also taking the exam came to ask about the situation.It turned out that the scholar's surname was Mei and his name was Zheren. He lived in the north of the city and was also an examinee this year. He heard that the Zhuangyuan Building was very effective.

Mr. Mei has a bit of literary talent, discussed poetry with other candidates, and soon became acquainted. His wife Yun'er was sitting next to Mr. Mei, silently serving tea and water for him. Some candidates brought their family members over to ask Talking to Yun'er, Yun'er smiled and waved his hand and refused.

The nearby examinees dispersed after being lively for a while. Mr. Mei and Yun'er drank a few cups of tea and were about to leave. A person who was standing in the distance and dressed as a scholar had been watching them secretly for a long time, touched them and whispered: "Young master, can you buy this year's assessment questions?"

Mei Zheren glanced at Yun'er calmly, squeezed the folding fan tightly in his hand, and said, "I usually just study and don't hear anything outside the window, so I don't know what this question is about?"

This person claimed to be surnamed Qin, and said: "Someone figured out a few questions based on the previous exam questions. I heard that many people bought it and studied it carefully, and gained a lot from it."

Mei Zheren asked with a smile: "What is the harvest?"

Qin Shusheng rolled his eyes and said, "Master Yan has served as the chief examiner for several times. I know his habit of writing questions. There is a lot of benefit but no harm. It just costs some money. I wonder if Mr. Mei is interested?"

No one who participated in the scientific examination would want to win. Hearing what he said, Mr. Mei was naturally a little moved, and Qin Shusheng stretched out a slap and shook it.

Yun'er was surprised: "Five taels??"

Qin Shusheng: "...500 taels."

Yun'er: "So expensive!"

Qin Shusheng hinted: "You might as well tell the two of you that this is a question for people who are well-versed in estimating. You can be sure of it. If you get the estimate right, you will be able to rise to the top!"

Unexpectedly, Mr. Mei, who was dressed like a dog, still worried: "It's good to be able to pass, but what if you don't... To tell you the truth, 500 taels is not a small amount for me. The previous exam questions are not kept secret. I believe the estimate There are not a few people who have problems, how do I know if it is worth it?"

Qin Shusheng lowered his voice and said, "I dare to assure you that my knowledge is definitely worth it. I am also short of cash and want to do more business, otherwise I wouldn't rush to ask you."

Many of the examinees are poor, and Qin Shusheng has seen a lot. Mr. Mei's clothes are not too shabby, and he should be able to get them out after a squeeze, so he came up with an idea: "Well, if you are still afraid that it will be useless, you might as well write a For the IOU of 400 taels, first give me 100 taels of silver. If it is useful, send me the rest of the silver. If it is useless, I will tear up the IOU. How about it? Don’t worry, it will be clearly written on the IOU .”

Mr. Mei said heartbrokenly: "If you win, you'd be willing to sell the pot and sell the house and land, but 100 taels..."

Qin Shusheng hurriedly said: "50 taels, how about 50 taels!"

Mr. Mei was still hesitating, but Yun'er said: "The family is not rich, 50 taels may not be enough in a hurry, but 20 taels can be worked out..."

Qin Shusheng: "..."

Mr. Mei wanted to retreat, and said: "Yun'er, you didn't hear clearly, if you don't win, the 20 taels will be gone."

Yun'er smiled sweetly and said: "My husband has studied hard for many years, isn't it just to pass the exam. I heard that the scientific examination is like a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge. If there is a way to make my husband more confident, it will be worth it."

Mr. Mei couldn't help but curled his lips: "I usually study, thanks to you taking care of the family, but in this way, I have to work hard on you again."

Yun'er said: "For the sake of my husband, don't work hard."

Qin Shusheng said with emotion: "This lady is still knowledgeable. It can be seen that the two of you are very sincere, and both left and right are in IOUs. This is also the first time for me to allow so much grace, just 20 taels."

Qin Shusheng pointed to the private room in the distance and said: "Speaking so much, I'm just a middleman who wants to make money. You just talk to the nobles inside with me and say that the surname Qin let you go. You guys Even if you are willing to buy it with money, the noble people inside must be willing to sell it, remember, you can only go to one."

Mr. Mei and Yun'er looked at each other. Mr. Mei got up to go, but Yun'er would not let him take risks. Holding him down, his eyes were shining brightly, and said: "Husband is tired from studying for a few days. Take a good rest. Let me take a rest." I'm going to meet this gentleman."

According to Prince Shen's son, the title was obtained at the Zhuangyuan Building, and it seems that he bought it from this nobleman.

It's just that if you dare to call yourself noble in front of Mr. Mei, it probably won't last long.
