Chapter 614
The autumn wind drove away the heat of summer, and as the news of the fourteen prefectures jointly resuming the imperial examination spread across the north and south, Wang Huo Chaotang seemed to be slapped severely. No matter how angry Wang Huo was, he and Yang Xixuan were separated by several forces. All Wang Huo's schemes can only stare blankly.

Now Jingzhou has also issued a newspaper, and Mr. Li San is in charge of it personally, which means that Mr. Li will control the public opinion in Jingzhou in the future.

Recently, all the newspapers are full of news about the resumption of the imperial examination. Why did they choose to announce the news in early autumn? Because the Li family proposed to use the resumption of the imperial examination to attract attention. The Li family took this opportunity to send Miss Li to Ruizhou first. Go to Ruizhou.

There are more subjects in the imperial examination, and Yang Xixuan also mentioned the general content of the examination in the newspaper. In these years of troubled times, scholars have been looking forward to the restoration of the imperial examination. Now that it has been resumed, although other subjects have been added by accident, as long as the imperial examination can be restored, They don't care anymore.

In Shanghe Town, Yang Xi and his wife looked at the accounts sent by the bookstore. Because of the resumption of the imperial examination, Yang Xi and his wife became famous again. Under the insistence of the Li family, Yang Xixuan took a step back, and the Yang Xi and his wife only counted and waited for the added subjects. The test questions, and other test questions were written by great Confucian scholars selected by the Li and Yang families.

This makes the imperial examination questions this year very difficult.

Yang Xi and his wife also have extra time to do other things, such as sorting out the exam questions in the school and printing and publishing them in a booklet, such as printing the teaching books in the C area of ​​the school.

As the news spread, the major bookstores in Xiangxian County were selling like crazy. The merchants who can stay in Xiangxian County for a long time are particularly shrewd. As soon as the news was announced, they began to hoard books wantonly, and truckloads of books were transported to the Li family to be in charge. of six states.

The reason is simple. The eight states in charge of Yang Xixuan do not allow reselling at high prices. This is to talk about the economic problems that have arisen under the rapid development of the two states of Ruide. After two years of norms and regulations, merchants can no longer Obtain huge profits from reselling, thus disrupting the prices of the entire market.

However, the six states controlled by the Li family are still very chaotic, as long as the books are transported there, they can earn several times or even ten times the money.

After Yang Xi and his wife checked the accounts, Yang Xi smiled. This is their own shop, "Who would have thought that one day selling books could make a lot of money?"

They are already making small profits but quick sales, and they have made thousands of taels in just five days, which is not counting the silver money for the deposit queue.

Zhou Yu is not short of money. It can be said that the money they have now will not be spent in several lifetimes. What they are really happy about is that more and more people will be educated and educated in the future.

Zhou Yu rubbed his shoulders, "Fortunately, the test is in Shanghe Town, so we don't have to leave home."

Yang Xi chuckled, "The Li family is afraid that something will happen to us, so they would rather send someone to Shanghe Town."

Zhou Yu laughed happily, "Xixuan's house has been built, but he hasn't moved in yet, so we'll move in first."

Yang Xi counted the days, "We have to stay in the house for a long time, the first is the Tongsheng Examination, and after the Tongsheng Examination is the Township Examination, Xixuan means it will end in one and a half months."

Zhou Yu started to tidy up the account books, "He doesn't want to delay the selection of officials this year."

Yang Xi, "Including Xixuan's wedding, these two months are enough for him to be busy."

Zhou Yu helped the lady up, "He has countless people at his disposal, as long as he knows the direction."

Yang Xi suddenly said: "It's time for the officials from various forces to attend the wedding to leave."

Zhou Yu said, "Wang Huo is the farthest away. In time, the officials from Wang Huo's faction will leave first."

The current road is not easy to walk. Wang Huo has to pass through the area under the jurisdiction of the Zhang family. In addition, there are many bandits on the road. Although he was the first to set off, he may be the last to arrive.

The couple closed the door of the study room. There were two guards and a woman watching the night in the main courtyard where the two lived. The whole courtyard was quiet, and the couple had gotten used to it.

Lu Shangshu and his sons were sitting in the study room of the Lu family's mansion in the capital city. They didn't feel sleepy at all. They had been discussing for many days, and the Lu family sons still wanted to stop their father from going south.

Young Master Lu, "Father, the family cannot live without you as the backbone. I will go south for you."

The Second Young Master Lu is also a descendant, "Father, elder brother is right, but elder brother is the future head of the family, so the son will go south."

Third Young Master Lv moved the corner of his mouth and did not dare to say anything. Anyone can go south, but he dare not go south, not only afraid of the danger on the road, he is even more afraid of seeing Yang Xixuan.

Lu Shangshu raised his hand, "This trip is only a dangerous journey, but don't forget that the emperor sent enough troops to the south, and since Yang Xixuan agreed to all the forces to participate in his wedding, then he will not kill me, in Yang Xixuan's territory I'm safe instead."

He paused and lowered his voice, "And I want to leave the capital for a while, the Ministry of Household Affairs is having a hard time recently, and I want to meet Yang Xixuan in person."

Young Master Lu and Second Young Master Lu remained silent. His father is the Minister of the Household Department. This trip to the south is indeed a good opportunity to avoid it.

Lu Shangshu stroked his beard, "This time the emperor agreed with me to go south, with the intention of dividing the power in my hands."

If it wasn't for Jin'er's hole card, he would have firmly grasped the power in his hand. No matter what the future holds, the power in his hand would be in exchange for the benefits he wanted, but there is danger in fighting, and I don't know if it will be damaged. How many descendants of the Lu family.

Now he has a better way out, and he doesn't need to fight for power blindly. When he heard that the emperor sent officials to go south, he agreed. the final list.

Third Young Master Lu suddenly said, "Father, do you want to take Jin'er to the south?"

Lu Shangshu shook his head, "Don't take him south."

Jin'er must be close to the Lu family. If Jin'er has not been educated well, he will not take Jin'er south, because he knows that Yang Xixuan will definitely keep Jin'er, which is impossible.

Young Master Lu asked, "Will you tell Yang Shi and Jin'er the news?"

Lu Shangshu stroked his beard, "Then we have to see what happens to Yang Xixuan."

Recognition is risky, and the risk of Lu's family is even greater at present.

In the backyard, Jin'er did not rest, he huddled under the quilt, holding the hairpin that his mother was holding on to before he died, Jin'er called mother softly, tears fell on the quilt uncontrollably.

He lives with his grandfather now, and he has become the most favored son of the Lu family. The grandmother who spoke sarcastically to him seems to be a different person, and no one is allowed to say anything bad about him when she asks him every day, but he sees indifference in his grandmother's eyes.

Jin'er doesn't like the current life, he just wants to live well.

And his father's wife, every time he sees him, it's like seeing something dirty. This family is so fake, and he can't forget his mother's dying appearance. If he wants to find his uncle, he must find him.

It is rare for Yang Xixuan from Jiaozhou to go to bed early, but he does not sleep well. He rarely dreams, but this time he dreamed about his parents.
