A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Chapter 114 That's all I have left! (two more)

Yang Qingyun was clearly prepared.

Hearing this, there was a moment of silence.

After that, he thought about it seriously: "Although I can't say that I'm sure of everything in this test, at least I'm confident that I'm not out of order. As long as I'm not unlucky enough to go against the examiner's personal preferences... I just want a ranking Being famous, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

His talent is not bad, and he worked hard since he was a child.

In addition, the family paid a lot of money to hire a good teacher for one-on-one teaching. If he hadn't been hiding his clumsiness, he might not have failed the provincial examination four or five years earlier.

But this time, it can be said that they are preparing for the spring battle.

In the past two years, he has tried to answer some of the previous exam questions one after another. With the relationship between Yang and Qi Wenjing, he invited the previous graders to comment, and the feedback and evaluation received were mostly good.

Those scholarly civil servants and Confucian scholars are all tough-tempered, so don't worry that they will deliberately flatter them when they hear that the articles are written by the children of the Changning Marquis. Most of the comments are sharp and to the point.

Therefore, this is not Yang Qingyun's blind self-confidence.

but--

The competition in the Chunwei Examination has always been extremely cruel, and it is also mixed with various subjective factors. The best he can do in this matter is to do his best and obey the destiny.

Yang naturally understood all these principles.

She called Yang Qingyun over to talk, not just to put pressure on her nephew, but...

When things came to an end, the anxiety in my heart could not be suppressed.

She squeezed the handkerchief in her hand hard, with a dignified and worried look on her face, she didn't know how to respond.

Knowing that she was uneasy, Yang Qingyun could only take the initiative to break the silence again: "Do you know the exact job he will perform when he returns to Beijing this time?"

A bit of annoyance and impatience could not be controlled on Yang's face. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he still had to tell the truth: "If there is no accident, it will be Yushi of Youdu."

This position is already from Yipin.

Only half a step to the top.

In Yang Qingyun's heart, he was so overwhelmed in an instant that he couldn't breathe.

But he didn't show it on his face, he still had a heartless and magnanimous appearance, and said with a sneer: "The governor who has been re-elected for two terms in the past, returning to Beijing this time, it is logical to be promoted to another level."

Yang felt indescribably depressed and uneasy.

She is not a person who is obsessed with fame, wealth and officialdom, but the current situation forces her to pray crazily every day...

Pray that no matter what, Yang Qingyun's foot must first step into the officialdom smoothly.

She is not afraid of that person entering the Inspectorate and Yushitai. Youdu Yushi is mainly in charge of local officials. Even if Yang Qingyun is in high school, she will not let him go to other posts at ease, no matter what. No matter what, if you use all the means of relationship, you have to keep people in the capital.

The foot of the Son of Heaven is the safest place relatively speaking.

Therefore, even if that person becomes the censor of the right capital, he is not the worst, and there is always a way ahead.

Now I'm really afraid...

If Yang Qingyun is unfortunate enough to fail, the other party will definitely hinder him in the future. I'm afraid he won't even get the chance to take part in the next round.

And these words, without her saying, Yang Qingyun knew it in his heart.

Seeing this, she indifferently smiled heartily, and comforted her instead: "It's okay, aunt, let's take a step back. Even if your nephew doesn't live up to his expectations and stops his way into officialdom, we are no longer twenty-one We were the same people a few years ago, and we have endured all these years to prepare for a rainy day, and after some deployment, self-protection is always no problem."

After the Yang family moved to Changting Town, they began to form good karma, and their reputation of being kind and charitable spread to the village.

Who said that a powerless person can only be slaughtered by others?

It's really forced to a certain extent——

It is often the hearts and minds of the people that overthrow the imperial power.

Based on the fundamental status of the Yang family in the local area, no one could really use the excuse of nothing to lay hands on them in Changting Town, which is so close to Beijing.

only--

It's not easy to live such a passive life all the time.

Yang's heart was in a mess, so he could only follow his words at this time: "Yes, do your best and obey the destiny. Although our family is not a good person or a good person, we have never done anything harmful to nature. This evil thing. What is left for now is only this bit of heart. I hope... just hope, otherwise I will come under the Nine Springs, and I don’t know how to see your grandmother and father.”

She is really not a sentimental person. Due to her emotions at the moment, she hurriedly took a veil to press the corners of her eyes: "I just want to remind you that you should be more careful in what you do in Beijing in the future. In addition, this matter You should also send a letter to inform the family as soon as possible, and tell them to be more careful. Huaner drank too much, I am worried, so I will go back first."

Xu Shi continued to face Yang Qingyun, and she was about to lose control of her emotions. Before she finished speaking, she hurriedly left Yang Qingyun and left.

Yang Qingyun didn't chase her, nor stopped her.

Just looking at her hurrying back, the look in her eyes became dark and serious inch by inch.

until the end...

On that face that was always sunny, there was already a storm of wind and thunder before the mountain rain was about to come.

He lifted his feet, walked quickly through the corridor, and returned to his room in the second courtyard.

Yunbei originally followed him, but later saw that Yang called him to talk privately alone, so he stood guard at the entrance of the big garden.

Seeing that his expression was not right at this time, his heartstrings tensed instantly, and the whole person became inexplicably nervous.

When Yang Qingyun went in, he closed the door tightly with his backhand.

After Yang Qingyun sat down at the case, he rolled up his sleeves and picked up his pen; "Research ink."

Yun Bei locked the door of the room, and didn't bother to fetch water, so he drank the remaining half bowl of cold tea soup on the table with Yang Qingyun, poured a little into the inkstone, and worked quickly with his hands and feet.

Yang Qingyun wrote family letters and never shy away from him.

Yunbei is literate, and he was horrified when he looked at the contents of the family letter from beside him.

Yang Qingyun explained the matter as concisely as possible, and then went to his luggage to get the envelope and wax seal, and solemnly sealed the private letter with wax: "It's getting late today, it's not safe to travel at night, tomorrow morning... this Take the letter home and deliver it yourself."

After a pause, he let out another sincere breath: "Fortunately, my elder brother is newly married, and I haven't been to sea again for a while."

However, Yunbei was still shocked by the wording of his letter, and couldn't help but asked implicitly: "Second son, you also said that our eldest son is just getting married, is this matter... really so serious? Just a single For the prestige and foundation of our Yang family in Changting County, at least no one dares to act rashly, right? Let’s take another ten thousand steps...there is no aunt, the eldest wife of the lord’s family..."

But before he finished speaking, he was severely interrupted by Yang Qingyun.

Yang Qingyun's expression was obviously displeased, and he warned in a deep voice: "It's because of my aunt and cousin. If it wasn't for our whole family, why would my aunt marry such a family at the risk of the world and live such a miserable life?" Days. Over the past [-] years, she has stood up for us in front of the three generations of our Yang family. Now, how difficult is she in? After my cousin divorced this time, I am afraid that she will marry again and find a capable in-law’s family to protect her. It's very difficult, our family is huddled in Changting County, as long as we don't show our heads, we can ensure our safety and prosperity, but my aunt, their mother and son can't leave this capital city and this Changning Marquis Mansion."

After more than twenty years of hardship and grievances, since his father passed away, my aunt has no one to confide in.

But she still did her best to protect her mother and child for these years.

Yang Qingyun himself is actually a very emotional person, and he knows it very well in his heart, but if he doesn't want to, Yang can't force him to take the official career.

even--

He also understands that Yang's doing this is somewhat selfish. She wants to train him, and wants to use his power to protect her two children in the future.

Everyone will have selfishness, but as a human being, you can't completely erase the kindness he once gave you for the occasional selfish calculation of others.

Perhaps others are not like this.

but--

People from the Yang family are just so "stupid".

Just like what Yang has done these years, now he also wants to spare no effort to try, to try with all his might, to see if their brothers can in turn become the reliance and barrier of their relatives who are connected by blood.

Yun Bei saw the water in his eyes.

At the same time, he could see more clearly his firmness and determination under that layer of water.

Knowing that he had said something wrong, Yunbei quickly fell to his knees and pleaded guilty: "It's a small slip of the tongue, I believe that the young one will be sent back tomorrow morning, and I will definitely hand it over to the eldest son."

Yang Qingyun didn't speak.

The sky outside gradually dimmed, just like the future and the way out that he couldn't see at a glance.

but--

He was still steadfastly waiting for the dawn.

Here in Qixia Garden, Qi Huan was so drunk that he was unconscious, and Yang's heart was really messed up and uneasy. Although she knew that Yunxi and the others would definitely take good care of her, she still insisted on leaving him in her room and let her Guard by yourself.

That night, she was restless and didn't even change her pajamas. She just sat by the bed, holding her daughter's hand, and guarding her until dawn.

Qi Huan started sleeping on the way back in the afternoon, and slept for more than six hours this time.

When I opened my eyes dry mouth and tongue again, the candles that had been lit all night in the room had been burned to the end.

The sky outside the window was only slightly bright, and everything was silent.

Her body has a decent capacity for alcohol. It should be that she didn't drink often before and hasn't gotten used to it, so she slept for a long time. Now that she wakes up, her mind is clear, and she doesn't even feel the hangover headache is inappropriate. .

It's just that I went to bed without washing up last night, and now I smell of alcohol, and my mouth is bitter and astringent.

At this moment, she herself disliked herself, frowning and just turned over to get up, but found that her hand was being held.

The light in the room was dim, she hadn't realized that it was in Yang's room, she was startled and sat up quickly.

Yang Shi didn't sleep at first, but when she saw her waking up alive and well, she smiled and stood up: "Are you awake? Why are you still so surprised? Are you sober?"

She turned around and walked to the basin stand in the corner, wet a handkerchief and brought it over.

Qi Huan subconsciously took it and wiped his face vigorously.

She felt the smell of alcohol on her face dissipate, and she finally realized where it was.

Seeing that Mrs. Yang still wore the same clothes as yesterday, she frowned first: "You guarded me all night? Why didn't you send me back to Chunyuzhai to sleep?"

My heart is infinitely annoyed.

Knowing that Yang's family loves her daughter, she should have paid attention to it, so she shouldn't be so greedy.

Yang took the handkerchief from her hand and threw it on the stool next to her casually, still without the slightest hint of criticism: "What do you want to eat in the morning? I'll tell the small kitchen to make it for you."

Qi Huan had mixed feelings in his heart for a moment, and felt an indescribable discomfort.

Her mother in her previous life advocated independence too much, as if she had never cared about her so "meaty" since she could remember.

It's not that it's a bad thing to teach children to be independent and sensible early, but when she is with Yang, she seems to experience more and more tender feelings.

Yang stood by the bed, waiting for her answer.

There was not much light in the room, and Qi Huan couldn't even see the exact facial features and expressions on her face.

But she got up, knelt on the bed and put her arms around Yang's neck, acting like a baby, "I will eat whatever mother eats, I am not picky."

Yang's palm lifted and landed on her back.

The temperature on her daughter's body was imprinted in her palm through the thin coat, and this warm and solid feeling was also real.

On Yang's dull face, the corners of her lips raised an arc, but she was driven away with distaste on her lips: "You reek of alcohol, and you rubbed against me."

Qi Huan has this self-awareness.

She even disliked the taste of her own body, and she didn't think that Yang Shi could like her just because she was carrying the identity of Yang Shi's daughter.

So he laughed dryly, and climbed out of bed to wash his face and mouth.

Afterwards, someone brought another basin of water to come in to wait for Yang Shi to wash up, and changed his clothes by the way.

Qi Yuanchen also got up half an hour earlier than usual today, and ran over from the wing room after putting on his clothes.

Qi Huan took him to play a small game for self-entertainment, and the two siblings sat at the dinner table waiting for dinner.

Yang looked into her eyes from the back room, and there was always a few worries that were full of worries in her smiling brows.

After finishing her breakfast, she waved Qi Huan away directly: "Since you are free, go back to your own side, and don't bother me here."

Naturally, Qi Huan was anxious to find a place for her to rest, so he took Qi Yuanchen along with him, but after taking two steps, he suddenly turned around: "Mother, didn't cousin Gao give me some fruit wine yesterday? Where did you put it?" Don’t put it in the public warehouse.”

If it is taken by others to drink, you can't really go to Gao's house to ask for it anymore, can you?
Before Mrs. Yang could speak, Lady Yun couldn't help laughing and said, "Miss, do you still remember this? You almost made a joke yesterday."

"Where can it be?" Qi Huan felt somewhat guilty, but his mouth was stiff, and he lowered his head and rubbed Qi Yuanchen's face, "I know it in my heart."

When mentioning those wines, Yang inevitably thought about Gu Zhan again.

She and Qi Wenjing had the same idea——

Since Gu Zhan asked for so many treasures from Queen Gu, no matter whether he told the truth or not, Queen Gu would soon know where he used those good wines.

She felt anxious in her heart, and wanted to mention Qi Huan a few words, but before the palace had a clear attitude...

It seems that there is no way to talk about it.

Fortunately, Qi Huan really didn't find anything wrong, she considered it again and again, and chose to muddle through: "Yesterday, I just asked someone to move it for you, so go back and drink now, a good girl's house, with only It looks like a drunk cat, isn't it pretty?"

Qi Huan was very wronged, knowing that she was running on him, he couldn't talk back, so he led Qi Yuanchen away with a smirk.

For the next few days, Yang's heart was restless, she couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep, and her whole body was visibly haggard again.

Qi Huan took her to the Tongji Medical Center. After Dr. Hu checked her pulse, he said that it was because of excessive worry, which caused stagnation of Qi and blood. With little success.

Qi Huan knew that the day when the rankings would be released was approaching, and she was probably worried about Yang Qingyun's performance in the exam.

But this matter can't be persuaded, and she can't help, she can only take Qi Yuanchen to stay with Yang's for a while every day, make trouble, tell jokes, amuse her, and distract her mind. Stop thinking about that all the time.

On the tenth day of the fourth lunar month, the first time the list was released, it finally settled Yang's heart.

The Qi family of the Marquis of Changning received two announcement documents one after another——

The cousin Yang Qingyun, who lived in the mansion, and their own son Qi Yuanming, both obtained the qualifications to enter the palace and take part in the imperial examination a day later.
