Chapter 42 Reimbursement
Li Ang asked, "Does this have any effect?"

"Initial guidance is equivalent to using spiritual energy to reopen a meridian that was sealed in the human body."

Pu Liuxuan frowned and said, "The practice method promoted by the Academy has been practiced for more than [-] years, and it is relatively safe and reliable, and I have rarely heard of accidents.

It's hard to tell if the spiritual veins are in the head. "

He thought about it seriously, and said, "Well, when you arrive in Chang'an, ask your senior brother to go to the Xue Gong Library to check the information and look for past cases.

Usually, the first two rounds of the academy's tests will not limit the talent of the spiritual veins, so you can spend time preparing more properly.

in addition"

Pu Liuxuan hesitated for a moment, then said slowly: "After arriving in Chang'an, don't mention my name casually to outsiders.

As a teacher, I offended some people because of something. "

"Who is there?"

Li Ang asked curiously, and he instantly made up hundreds of thousands of words in the annual emotional drama of grievances and hatreds.

Pu Liuxuan said casually: "Not much, just a few generals, a few Zaifu, a few princes and princes of the county."

"What, what?"

Li Ang couldn't hide the shock in his tone, "Teacher, did you plan to rebel back then?"

"Go, go, if I try to rebel, can I still sit here and chat with you?"

Pu Liuxuan laughed and said, "In short, it's good that you know about this matter.

Chang'an is a mixed bag, so remember to be cautious before entering the school.

With the identity of a school disciple, there is the capital to move around in various forces and make a name for it. "

"The disciple knows."

Li Ang nodded and agreed, but he was still thinking about what Pu Liuxuan did to get kicked out of Chang'an City.

There are not many things that can offend Zaifu, the general, and the prince of the county at the same time. After ruling out the possibility of rebellion, there are only a few things left.

Could it be that Pu Liuxuan made a fortune when he started his own business and ran on the firms owned by the powerful?

Unlikely, the teacher is not greedy for money.

Or is it that Pu Liuxuan was suave and suave back then, and kidnapped the first Jiaofang Siqing in Chang'an?

No, no, that's ridiculous, even if the dignified Duke of the County is jealous of a woman, it won't be so ugly.

Or, Pu Liuxuan practiced the evil sect exercises in the past, in order to experience the red dust and polish his temperament, he pretended to be a priest of the Jiaofang Division, playing games in the world, and finally the matter was revealed, and he was angry and resented by the powerful?
You are the simple words of the witch sequence?

Pu Liuxuan sipped the tea lightly, without thinking that his image in Li Ang's mind was becoming strange.

crackling-

The loud sound of firecrackers and drums came from far to near, Pu Liuxuan put down the teacup and smiled: "The carriage is here, let's go."

"Ah."

Li Ang picked up the two boxes of luggage that had been prepared long ago, walked out of the courtyard with Pu Liuxuan and Chai Cuiqiao, and locked the door.

Pu Liuxuan didn't want to be seen by outsiders, so he left first.

Li Ang and Chai Cuiqiao came to the main entrance of Bao'an Hall through the alley, and saw Song Shaoyuan in elegant green shirt standing at the entrance of Lansheng Tower, with a smile on his lips, smugly saying goodbye to his relatives and friends.

And his mother, Aunt Song, also stood in the back with a proud and proud face, but occasionally she would secretly wipe a tear when no one was paying attention.

"Sunrise!"

Aunt Song wiped her red eyes, quietly beckoned to call Li Ang over, took his hand and said softly, "You grew up watching your aunt, just like your nephew.

I heard that Changan rice is expensive and everything is expensive, so I took this. "

She took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Li Ang's hand. It was heavy, feeling that it was filled with gold pieces and flying money.

"Auntie, I can't accept this."

Li Ang wanted to resign, but Aunt Song said, "I don't need it, I bring it with me, and the sequins can be sewn into the interlayer of the clothes, just in case.

This kid Shao Yuan is good in everything, but he is too honest and loyal.

Risheng, you are very smart, help your aunt to watch him, don't ask for admission to the school, just come back safely."

"Auntie, Chang'an is not a devil's den that eats people and doesn't spit out bones. It talks about Yu law."

Li Ang reluctantly looked at Aunt Song who had a firm attitude, so he had to accept the red envelope and put it in his pocket.

At this time, the announcer of the good news had already arrived at the bridgehead of Wuzhou, holding up the poster with congratulations written on it, and walked to the gate of Lansheng Building.

What followed was a convoy of more than ten luxury carriages, each carrying students who were going to Chang'an, as well as their luggage and servants.

The complacent Song Shaoyuan and his mother said goodbye to their relatives and friends, and got into the penultimate carriage alone, while Li Ang and Chai Cui jumped into the last carriage. When they got into the carriage, they saw many familiar faces in the crowd.

Xun Mujian, Sha De's family, Mr. Luo surnamed Storyteller, Lu Yi and her mother Xi Hui.

A group of people also came to congratulate and bid farewell, and they were sent to the outside of the city of Wuzhou.

"Master,"

Chai Cuiqiao opened the curtains and watched the stone monument with the landmark written on the road gradually retreating and shrinking in his sight. He said nervously and softly, "Are we going to leave Kuangzhou?"

"Ah."

Li Ang pressed the medicine box with his palm and nodded nervously.

Chai Cuiqiao had never left the territory of Kuangzhou, nor did he.

Although Xuegong has built a large number of roads and bridges in the past 300 years, for a large number of Yu people who have land, there is no need for them to leave their hometown.

Voluntary departure from home, usually for bankruptcy and business reasons.

"Chang'an, Chang'an"

Chai Cuiqiao chanted the name of the city yearningly, and said crampedly, "Master, what is Chang'an like?"

"Prosperous, majestic, fertile, open, civilized."

Li Ang has never been to Chang'an, which doesn't mean he can't pick a few words from the newspapers to describe it, "I heard that Chang'an's East and West Markets gather all kinds of commodities, food, and wine in the world.

I started eating at the first store, and I ate one every day. After three years of eating, I couldn’t finish visiting any city.

In addition to delicious, there is also fun.

Cuju, horse racing, drama, sumo, acrobatics, beast fighting, bug fighting”

Li Ang paused for a while, Chang'an was rich and prosperous, and the people were very enthusiastic about developing their own means of entertainment, and they could fight for anything.

Not only fighting beasts, fighting insects, but also fighting tea, cards, and wine—the competition among the major guilds in Chang'an is extremely fierce, and many competitions are held every year to advertise.

I don't know if there is a gong competition with the best quality of gongs and drums.

Every year the champion is called the title fight.

Mmmm, nice name.

"Wow,"

Chai Cuiqiao's eyes lit up, "Then, is there a competition that eats more than anyone else?"

"Should. Have?"

Li Ang said casually: "According to my senior brother, there are still some restaurant businesses in Chang'an, and they occasionally launch events. If you can eat all the meals within a limited time, the reorganization will be free."

"Huh? You don't need money for food. Which store is so stupid. Oh, no, it's such a conscience."

Chai Cuiqiao said excitedly, "As expected of Chang'an, the bearing is just different."

"Why, you also want to change your household registration to become an honorary Chang'an person?"

Li Ang gave Chai Cuiqiao a glance, "Don't think too much. It's not that they are really stupid, they occasionally engage in activities to increase their popularity.

I still have to pay for meals normally.

By the way, how much money do we have? "

"290 rounds."

When it came to money, Chai Cuiqiao looked around for a while like a weasel who had stolen a chicken, lowered his voice, and leaned into Li Ang's ear and said, "Among them 250 pieces of flying money, ten pieces of coins, and thirty pieces of gold and silver pieces. piece."

"Why are you so close, and no one is eavesdropping on the carriage."

Li Ang rolled his eyes, these carriages were designed and built by the Academy.

Made of fine iron, a large number of gears and springs with complex structures are used, and the talisman is attached to the bottom of the vehicle, which not only has first-class shock absorption and sound insulation, but also reduces wind resistance and increases driving speed, which is equal to the speed of high-end horses running at full force.

I don't know how much this carriage will cost. According to Cheng Juxiu, these carriages are not for sale. Even in Chang'an, only a dozen noble families can own them.

"Be careful."

Chai Cuiqiao stuck out her tongue, "Master, how much is the red envelope given by Aunt Song?"

"Let me see."

Li Ang opened the red envelope, which contained ten golden leaves and a small stack of flying money, which was estimated to be worth about two hundred pieces.

"so much?"

Li Ang said, "Tsk, I owe more and more favors this time."

"It's Lansheng Building after all."

Chai Cuiqiao looked at the golden flakes, her eyes could not be taken away, she muttered, "It's so shiny, so bright, I like it so much."

"The bald head is also very shiny and shiny. You can shave yourself if you like."

Li Ang complained about the greedy maid who was addicted to gold, scratched his head and said, "Well, in the two boxes we brought, there are changing clothes, scriptures to be tested, and spare pen and inkstone.

When you arrive in Chang'an, you don't need to buy another one.

The convoy would live in the imperial palace's residence along the way, and the accommodation and food expenses would be borne by the school, which means that the expenses along the way could also be omitted.

Only need to take into account the accommodation expenses after Chang'an - this is not reimbursed at public expense.

According to my senior brother, there are more than [-] people who go to Chang'an every year to prepare for the entrance exam.

There are another 4000 people—these people are usually international students from foreign countries, those who have received recommendation letters like me, those who have been recommended by the Ministry of War or the Zhenfu Department, and young children from clans and ministerial families.

All of them add up to tens of thousands, and there are three months from the preparation for the test to the end of the three rounds of the test.

It is impossible to reimburse everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation at public expense. Only a few poor students from remote state capitals can receive full subsidies.

And Kuangzhou is relatively wealthy, so he is definitely not qualified. "

Chai Cuiqiao said in astonishment, "Ah? Where will we live then?"

"Find a place to live by myself, what else can I do."

Li Ang thought about it and said, "Usually you live in restaurants and other places, low, medium and high-end, and the cheap ones are about [-] to [-] yuan a night?
Or we can find a place to rent for a short time. "

"Would that be expensive?"

Chai Cuiqiao asked worriedly, "Is there enough money? Will you sit and eat?"

"If you rent for three months on a short-term basis, a dozen or so should be enough."

Li Ang said with a smile: "As for whether or not to sit and eat, it's really not good. Can you still earn money by practicing medicine like in Kuangzhou?"
