Chapter 423 The imminent departure

No matter how lively the madness is, there are times when the music ends.

Candidates who failed the provincial examination were the first to leave. For example, Wu Chengen returned home sadly after a few days of healing in the old Qinhuai hospital.

In September, the new imperial examination candidates also left Nanjing one by one, and the thirteenth year of Jiajing's rural examination became history.

Of course, after these new imperial examination candidates return home, there must be some rituals of "returning with honor" from the local officials and folks, and that is the last aftertaste.

But for Qin Dewei, this kind of etiquette is a bit redundant or even embarrassing.

Imagine what the scene would be like if the county government of Jiangning County wanted to hold a ceremony to "celebrate Qin Dewei's success in the examination of our county".

The host was Shenzhi County, Zanli County Xueding Jiaoyu, and Mr. Gu Dongqiao, the representative of the squires, was watching the ceremony. Qin Dewei was the only candidate for the new imperial examination.

just forget it.

But the government office in Nanjing City is not only Jiangning County, but also Yingtian Mansion.Governor Chai Qi still wants to make a difference and boost morale.

So Jiangning County did not hold this kind of embarrassing ceremony according to Qin Dewei's instructions, but Ying Tianfu wanted to hold a ceremony again.

Adding up the whole city of Nanjing, the number of new imperial examination candidates can be increased to three, which is still a bit embarrassing.

Qin Dewei couldn't control Yin Chaifu, so he could only go to participate at that time, and suddenly he was looking forward to meeting Mr. Gu as a squire.

But two days before the ceremony, a major event happened in the Nanjing literary world.

Mr. Gu Dongqiao, the leader of the Jinling Literary Circle, has left Nanjing to go north. I heard that he is going to be an official again, and at the age of 58, he will play his remaining role for the Ming Dynasty again!
Without Mr. Gu Laomeng to attend the ceremony, Qin Dewei suddenly felt that the ceremony of "Celebrating the National Examination of Three People in Nanjing City" was boring, and even the Nanjing literary world was meaningless.

When the township examination has completely become a thing of the past, Qin Dewei now faces the same choice as his stepfather back then.

If you plan to take the exam in February next year, you have to prepare to go.

The northern canal will be frozen in November. If you want to get to the capital before it freezes, you have to start in early October at the latest.

According to this schedule, there are only about half a month left.

Thinking of this, Qin Dewei sighed, he had a lot of ties in Nanjing City.

Miss Gu, who is already pregnant, will not talk about it. If she goes to the capital to take part in the general examination, even if she fails, she probably won't be able to come back in time to see the birth of the child.

Moreover, Wang Lianqing became more and more resentful, and now she was a little afraid to go to her.

In this trouble, Qin Dewei received a document from Liaocheng County.

This was issued to Jiangning County privately by the Liaocheng County Government's fake public aid, and then the scribe handed it over to Qin Dewei.

In the document, stepfather Zeng said three things.First, I warmly congratulate my cheap son for winning the provincial examination, and we must make persistent efforts to reach new heights.

Second, stepfather Zeng's own son had already been born, so there was no need to think about changing Qin Dewei's surname. Since then, Qin Dewei had an extra half-brother.

Third, stepfather Zeng is leaving Liaocheng County and is planning to go to Beijing next month for a review. This should be a sign of promotion.

Qin Dewei ignored the first point, and Qin Dewei couldn't say anything about the second point.

Mainly the third point, Qin Dewei thought a lot about his stepfather's career.

According to the original historical trajectory, at this time there was a vacancy in the Liaodong patrol censor, and the great-grandfather who aspired to the frontier filled the place.

Then next year, the governor of Liaodong and the commander of the capital both rushed to the street to die, and there was a mutiny in Liaodong.

So stepfather Zeng tried his best to turn the tide like a protagonist of a web novel, and quelled the Liaodong Mutiny by himself.

Since then, Zeng's stepfather has soared into the sky and embarked on the fast lane of promotion, becoming the governor in just ten years.

Qin Dewei didn't know if the butterfly effect he brought would affect this crucial step, and there was also the issue of how his mother would arrange it.

After much deliberation, I could only write back and write: "If the master has great ambitions and has no fixed place to live as an official, please temporarily place my mother in the capital, and ask sister Xuan to take care of her."

This implication is obvious. An official like the inspector censor does not have a fixed residence. If he has to patrol continuously in the territory under his jurisdiction, he cannot take his family with him.

After replying to his stepfather, Qin Dewei thought about it and went to find Wang Lianqing.

Gu Niangzi should not have a big problem here, and she can live steadily. First, she will have a child, and second, she will have a career. She will stay in Nanjing for at least a year or two with peace of mind.

But if I am not in Nanjing for a long time, what will my old lover Wang Lianqing do in the future is a problem, and I may be responsible for it.

After meeting, Wang Meiren said, "You must want to go north again."

Qin Dewei asked back: "I didn't say that, why are you so sure?"

Wang Lianqing sighed: "You haven't come to see me for several days, which is enough to show your thoughts!"

Qin Dewei said, "Why don't you come with me?"

Wang Lianqing smiled lightly and said, "You may not be able to pass the exam next year. If you fail, won't you have to come back again? I won't follow you around, let's talk about it next year."

Qin Dewei couldn't help it. With the current traffic conditions, it would be a big deal for anyone to leave their hometown.

Qin Dewei asked again: "Then do you want me to go to Chinese next year, or fail?"

Wang Meiren said very philosophically: "Whether you are Chinese or not, it's just a floating cloud, so what about me? In the final analysis, it's not about how you are."

Qin Dewei joked, "Your state of mind has improved a lot. You only said that you hope I don't get hit in the first place."

Wang Meiren responded, "Whoever made me fall in love with you is fate."

Qin Dewei continued to ask: "Then you say, is this a good fate or a bad fate?"

Wang Lianqing said a little sourly: "Anyway, it's not as good as Miss Gu's life."

Mrs. Gu can have children in an open and aboveboard manner, and Qin Dewei will definitely accept it, but Wang Lianqing knows that she can't do it, so she doesn't even mention it.

After all, she is a Le Ji, no matter whether she gave birth to a man or a woman, or a Le Ji, Qin Dewei would never accept it.

Qin Dewei thought for a while and said, "We can think of a way to get you out of citizenship."

Wang Lianqing was silent for a moment, and said the same words: "We will talk about it after you finish the exam next year."

Qin Dewei said strangely: "Don't you want to?"

Wang Lianqing saw it very clearly: "Although this status is humble, it is also a stable job and relatively comfortable.

Even if you are old and decrepit, you can still find a living in this industry, and even if you are not good enough, you can become a luthier or something.

But if she leaves her nationality and joins someone else's family, she can't help herself. Once she becomes an abandoned wife, the end will be even more miserable. "

Qin Dewei thought, why is this beauty Wang so insecure?Reluctant to leave your comfort zone?Or do you have no confidence in yourself?

When he still wanted to say something, Wang Lianqing slapped Qin Dewei on the bed, and said very upset:

"Why are you so verbose tonight? When I wanted to talk to you, you shouted back and pretended to be dead.

Today, I talked about it endlessly. Let me see, are you not good enough? "
