Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

On the third night after Li Yi'an was attacked, the wolf lord came to Cui's house again. Seeing all the information about Li Yi'an that Cui Mao came back from his recent investigation, the more he looked, the more dissatisfied he became.

With the strength of their Cui family, Cui Mao found out the next day, but he didn't know how to contact the wolf lord, so he had to wait for him to come.

"That's all?"

The wolf lord asked after reading it.

Li Yi'an's parents are just ordinary farmers, and there is nothing wrong with their family background. The only special thing is that when he was 12 years old, he seemed to be a different person, and then there was no more.

"That's all we can find out."

Cui Mao was very nervous, his own life was in the other party's hands, would he dare to mess around?Of course not, but Li Yi'an's family background is not complicated, there is no way to explain this matter.

The wolf master was not satisfied, and after looking at it for a while, he said, "Continue to investigate, I want to know who his real parents are."

Cui Mao asked curiously: "His parents are someone else?"

Before today, he only thought Li Yi'an was hateful, but he didn't expect that there was a shady secret behind it.

"I don't need you to know about my affairs!"

After the wolf lord finished speaking, he opened the door and left.

Cui Mao let out a long breath of relief, but before he could recover, another faint voice came from behind him.

"Are you afraid of him?"

The sudden sound startled him, he turned his head quickly, and saw a slim figure appearing in front of his eyes, he took a closer look, it was the woman who killed his eldest son.

"You, why are you, come..."

Before Cui Mao could utter a word, he felt a chill on his neck, and looked down, only to see a shining long sword, the edge of which was just sticking to his skin.

"You, what else do you want to do?"

Cui Mao was sure he was right, the woman who killed Cui Tianhua just replaced the heavy sword with an ordinary long sword.

"Of course I'm going to kill you!"

The woman giggled, and to Cui Mao's ears, that pleasant laughter was as terrifying as a reminder.

As her hand trembled slightly, the sword edge cut through the skin of his neck, leaving a red bloodstain on it.

"Forgive me!"

Cui Mao knelt down, panicked.

"If you kill him, I will kill you now!"

At the same time, the wolf lord who had just left was standing in the house again, his indifferent voice made people tremble all over.

"I'm just playing with him, it's not fun at all!"

The woman put away her sword and stood behind the wolf lord.

"It's her, it's her, you kill her!"

Cui Mao's confidence finally came back.

"The one who killed your eldest son was not her!"

The wolf master gave the woman a cold look, and said coldly, "Let's go!"

Cui Mao didn't realize it until they left completely, he could see clearly that he was definitely the one who killed Cui Tianhua, how could he not?

He didn't dare to think too much about certain things, and he simply dealt with the wound on his neck, and the skin was broken. Fortunately, he was fine.

Just after doing this, Cui Mao felt someone behind him, and then a figure flashed past.

"who is it!"

Cui Mao jumped up and found that it was the woman who had gone and returned.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not going to kill you, and I'm really not the one who killed your son, but do you want revenge?"

The woman played with the sword in her hand, every time she pulled out the sheath, Cui Mao could see the flickering cold light of the sword.

Cui Mao asked cautiously: "Can you help me take revenge?"

The woman nodded slightly: "In exchange, you should be able to help me arrange some people to enter the palace?"

Cui Mao asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I said it just now, to help you take revenge!"

The woman said impatiently: "Of course you can refuse. Although I can't kill you, it's not a problem to kill your second son."

"No... dare not, I promise you!"

Cui Mao gritted her teeth and went all out, as long as she didn't hurt Cui Tianming, no matter what she wanted to do.

"That's right!"

The woman nodded in satisfaction and said, "I'll come back to you in half a month. I want to be safe."

After finishing speaking, she left Cui's house, several figures rose and fell, landed outside the fence, and said lightly: "Come out!"

A figure came out of the darkness and cupped its hands respectfully.

"I remember there is still a piece of meteorite, within half a month, you have to get it, and I also want to make an epee!"

A chilling smile appeared on the corner of the woman's mouth.

-

A few more days passed, but the city of Chang'an seemed a bit lively, because today was the first imperial examination held during Li Shimin's administration.

Not only is it an exam for poor scholars, but all scholars can participate as long as they sign up.

Logically speaking, the five surnames and Qiwang should be very opposed to such a large-scale imperial examination for selecting scholars. They all hope that the imperial court can rule the world according to the family, like the Wei and Jin Dynasties, using officials from their family.

However, now that the Wang family has rebelled, the Cui family and the Lu family have split, and the remaining four families cannot unite, and they will be restrained by various anti-monopoly measures from the imperial court. , the only way is to stuff the juniors of his own family into the imperial examination room.

Before the 24th year of Emperor Xuanzong Kaiyuan, there was no special examination room for the imperial examination, and the office area of ​​the official department was usually used to take the examination. A large group of poor scholars, including other participating scholars, stood in front of the Suzaku gate at this moment, and came to send the examination friends respectively.

"Brother Yifu and Brother Zhizhou, everything is going well!"

Fang Cheng and them have become friends and sent them here for the exam.

Gao Zhizhou said gratefully: "Brother Fang, when we have achieved fame after high school, we will visit you again."

Li Yifu said the same way: "Brother Fang, please guide me when the time comes!"

Fang Cheng was very embarrassed, so he could only agree vaguely, and watched them go in.

Walking into the Suzaku Gate, the guards immediately took them to the office of the Ministry of Officials, which had been emptied, and tables and chairs were set up again, waiting for the exam to start.

The person in charge of the exam this time is naturally Fang Xuanling and the others. First, they will issue a number plate to all the scholars, verify their identities, and then sit according to the number plate. These are the procedures that Li Yi'an imagined for them.

The first imperial examination in the Zhenguan period officially started.

At the same time, Li Yi'an was still tossing about his things.

Although the imperial examination was gradually facilitated under his recommendation, he didn't pay much attention to it. Anyway, it doesn't matter who goes to high school.

He remembered the imperial examination during the Zhenguan period, and Li Yifu seemed to be on the list, but he didn't remember the details.

"Sir, can you really succeed in doing this?"

Cheng Yaojin's hands were covered with mud, and he looked at Li Yi'an, who was also covered with mud.

"General Cheng, be steady and have confidence in yourself!"

While talking, Li Yi'an soaked a bowl-shaped porcelain blank with black glaze, and then carefully pasted a maple leaf whose veins had been corroded by soaking in water in the center of the pottery pot.

"Okay, let's burn it first!"

After Li Yi'an finished everything, he wiped his forehead with sweat, and then stained his forehead with the mud in his hands.

He is also a little nervous. Although there is a systematic inheritance of knowledge as a guarantee, it is the first time to do it.

In case of messing up, the fat man invested so much money this time, and he still didn't fight him desperately.
