The daily routine of wearing a book and abusing literature to cultivate a scholar and Xiaoxianggong

Chapter 179

August [-]th, the first day of the provincial examination.

In the morning, Xianggong's test basket was ready. Li Xiaodao checked it twice carefully, and Xianggong checked it again. The pen, ink, paper and inkstone, food, roll cloth, etc. that meet the examination requirements have all been prepared one by one.

Xiaoxizi's carriage was already waiting at the gate, but what was different was that today there was not only a carriage at the gate, but also four strong men riding tall horses.

Boss Wan did what he said, he arrived on time in the morning and waited at the door, but...

Others in this battle seem to be exaggerating.

Pei Zhiqi walked to the door with the test basket, looked at the four strong men, then turned to look at the lady with the sword on her back and her hand on the knife at her waist, and said with a smile: "Lady, it's only a short distance away, if you have to do this ……"

Li Xiaodao nodded heavily and said: "It must be like this, it must be like this, it must be like this! Please get in the car!"

Pei Zhiqi bowed his head to the four strong men who were protecting him, looked at his wife, and got into the carriage.

Li Xiaodao followed Xianggong into the carriage, but she didn't sit in the carriage, but sat side by side with Xiao Xizi in the driving place, and kept looking around vigilantly.

Four strong men on horseback surrounded the four corners of the carriage, with weapons in hand, focused expressions, and the whole process was quiet, looking very professional.

Seeing this battle, the people on the road thought that some important person was on patrol, and they couldn't help but make way for the road while talking a lot.

Li Xiaodao was not afraid of other people's eyes at all, but kept apologizing when he walked to a crowded place: "I'm sorry! Please give way! It's really troublesome for everyone! But this is a last resort! Please give way."

Not long after walking, the carriage arrived near the gate of the Gongyuan. Li Xiaodao took a look, ho!The black crowd huddled together and surrounded the gate of the Gongyuan tightly.Candidates each carry a test basket in their hands, some chat with each other and line up, some line up surrounded by schoolboys or family members, some line up by themselves, stretching their heads from time to time to see how many people are ahead .

"I saw Brother Qin and the others, and the other four people who made each other have already come, they should have come from the academy together," Pei Zhiqi said to the lady while looking at the carriage, lifting the curtain in front of it.

"Well, Mr. get out of the car, these people are almost lined up on the street behind." After saying that, Li Xiaodao jumped out of the carriage from the driver's seat.

Pei Zhiqi got off the carriage and queued up to enter the arena, and the four strong men also got off their horses. The reins were all handed over to Xiao Xizi, who then protected Pei Zhiqi in the middle and lined up with him.

Pei Zhiqi's strange battle quickly attracted the attention of some people, but Pei Zhiqi himself didn't seem to care, he just waved his hand calmly to greet Qin Jin and the other students, Qin Jin and the others also waved to him in front of him .

Holding a handful of reins in her hand, Xiao Xizi said in a daze, "How do we arrange four horses and a carriage..."

Li Xiaodao wanted to go up to the front to line up with his husband, but seeing that Xiaoxizi had no choice, he had to turn back, help Xiaoxizi tie the horse first, and then hurriedly went to find his husband with the sword on his back and the knife in his hand.

The weather was very hot, so Li Xiaodao took out two fans that he carried with him, and handed them to Xianggong and a few heroes.

As expected, the person Boss Wan is looking for is a professional, Li Xiaodao said gratefully.

After queuing for a long time, we finally reached the first gate. From here on, Li Xiaodao and the four strong men who protected Mr. Xiang couldn't get in. Only Pei Zhiqi could go in alone.

"Miss, don't stay outside the door every day, the weather is hot, be careful of heat stroke," Pei Zhiqi looked at the lady and warned.

Li Xiaodao nodded: "Sister, don't worry about me, let's take the exam! We will pick you up the day after tomorrow! Also, pay attention to safety, if you find something wrong, don't be brave if you are unarmed, you can shout for help!"

Pei Zhiqi smiled slightly, and he nodded too, and thanked the four heroes for seeing him off, then turned and entered the door.

After Pei Zhiqi entered the Gongyuan, the four escorts left, saying that they would come here in time to pick him up the next morning.

Li Xiaodao also bowed and thanked everyone, but after thinking about it, he bowed his body again and said with a smile, "I've worked for a few heroes in the past ten days!"

She watched the heroes leave, then walked back to the entrance of the Gongyuan, looked inside, and found that the husband had gone to nowhere, and there was no one in sight.

Although she promised that the husband would not guard the door all the time, how could she not guard it?Not to mention the cases of fainting on the spot or even being carried out due to lack of energy during the exam, even if the husband is strong, she is still worried that the bad guys are in the dark, afraid that they will play some tricks in the palace. She can also find out in time and rescue her husband in time.

Li Xiaodao understands that starting from today, these nine days may become the most difficult nine days in her life.

It’s okay, just get over it, today’s first day is a good start, the road to Gongyuan is safe and nothing happened, I hope the next eight days will continue to maintain today’s state.

She even wanted Xiao Xizi to leave the carriage here, the horse could be taken back at night, and she wanted to sleep in the carriage at night.

This idea was a bit crazy, but she still ordered Xiao Xizi to do so.

"Miss Li, are you sure? This... is not allowed, have you forgotten that there is a curfew at night," Xiao Xizi reminded her.

How could I forget this!In ancient times, it was not allowed to hang out on the street at night.

Li Xiaodao sighed, and replied: "Oh."

Suddenly she had an idea: "Then I'll find an inn near here to sleep for two nights!"

Xiao Xizi smiled and shook her head: "Where can you find an inn near here? Not to mention expensive, it's already full! It's hard to find a room in the inn in the provincial capital at this time of year, not to mention that the Lingong Courtyard is special. What's the nearest store!"

"Then stay until it's almost curfew time to go home," Li Xiaodao sighed.

While guarding the gate, Li Xiaodao observed the examinees entering the arena, and many people entered the arena at night. He felt that Mr. Xianggong came too early today, and he can come back later on August [-]th and [-]th.

That night Li Xiaodao stayed until Xiao Xizi said he couldn't stay any longer, then he stood at the door and took another look, worrying as he got into the carriage and walked back.

Come here early tomorrow, she thought, and bring an oiled paper umbrella to cover the sun by the way.

When he got home, Li Xiaodao randomly took a few mouthfuls for dinner.

That night, Chef Wang came to accompany her, chatting at night until Chef Wang yawned and went to sleep opposite her. Li Xiaodao's eyes were still bright at night.

A sleepless night.

*

The next day, Li Xiaodao went to the gate of the Gongyuan early in the morning, and found that there were quite a lot of people guarding the gate like her, and quite a few of them were schoolboys from rich sons' families.

Xiao Xizi drove the carriage to a shady place, let Li Xiaodao sit in the carriage to block the sun, and drew up the front and rear curtains to get a bit of wind and cool off, it was indeed much more comfortable.

In the middle of the afternoon, when Li Xiaodao was dozing off in the carriage, he suddenly heard the loud shouts from the crowd outside: "It's out! It's out!" "Who's fainted! Let me see!" "Don't squeeze, don't squeeze! Get out of the way!"

Li Xiaodao jumped out of the carriage and ran over.
