On August [-], the second session of Qiu Wei was held as scheduled.

Compared with the high spirits before, the students who entered this time were obviously a little listless.

The three-day torture was one reason, and the unsatisfactory test was the main reason, so everyone was exhausted and anxious.

But compared to these people, Lu Jingyuan was still handsome and handsome, with a calm expression, and he was not affected at all.

"Mr. Da Lang, this is the meal for this time, please take it well."

"It's getting colder at night now. The lady told you to add a thick cloak for you. This one is without lining. The official will know it after checking. It won't cause you any trouble."

Zhang Yuan made a lot of confessions.

And Lu Jingyuan just listened quietly.

It's just that from the corner of my eye, I glanced at the restaurant opposite from time to time.

But it's a pity that nothing unusual was found this time, and the windows on the opposite side were not even opened.

"understood."

Lu Jingyuan entered the examination room absent-mindedly.

Before entering the door, he looked back again, seeing that he still didn't see the person he was thinking of, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Soon the exam will begin.

Compared with the four books and five classics, Yi, book, poem, spring and autumn, and book of rites in the first exam.

The second exam was much easier.

It's just some conventional theory, one imperial edict, one edict, one internal medicine, edict draft, imperial edict draft, table core, five judgments, etc.

But all of these have to be written in stereotyped script, with one more word or one less word.

It's easy to say, but it's actually extremely difficult.

How many people have racked their brains, it is good to be able to write it, but it is even more difficult to write it brilliantly.

However, none of these can't help Lu Jingyuan.

Not to mention that it is easy to grasp, it is just a little effort to polish the pen.

Therefore, while others were writing and racking their brains, he was studying today's Wu Shan.

"This soup cake?"

Lu Jingyuan folded it in two, and twisted it with his hands.

"It's not completely dry, and it will never dry for more than a day."

Then checked the others.

Almost half of the food has changed, and the style is not the same as before. Is it because he is afraid that he will get tired of eating?

Also changed the taste?

However, these are very fresh, and they must not have been prepared early.

Zhang Yuan has been serving closely, so naturally he has no time to do this.

Lu Jingyuan fell into deep thought again.

Gongyuan·The restaurant facing the street

"Miss?"

Xia Xiaoqiao stood in front of the window as usual, watching the closed gate of the Gongyuan for a long time without saying a word.

"Princess Lingshan sent someone here."

"Lingshan?"

Xia Xiaoqiao froze for a moment, "How did she know that I came to Fucheng?"

"Sister Xia, you are too mean. Now that you have come to Fucheng, why didn't you let me know?"

Princess Lingshan held her hand unhappily, "If my people hadn't seen it, how long would you have been full of me?"

"Nonsense, what am I doing to you? Isn't this Qiu Wei? I just came here to have a look, and I'll be back soon."

As soon as Xia Xiaoqiao said this, Princess Lingshan felt a little unnatural.

"It's just Qiu Wei, what's so interesting about it, but if you pass the exam, it's just a juren, nothing special."

Hearing this, Xia Xiaoqiao raised her eyes and glanced at her.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Sister Xia, what do you think of me like that?"

Princess Lingshan was a little flustered, but Xia Xiaoqiao's eyes turned slightly, and then she smiled and said, "That's right, you're right."

"Of course, what kind of person has the princess never seen?"

Princess Lingshan, who was originally nervous, instantly relaxed, and immediately refilled her a cup of tea: "Sister Xia, there are many good men in this world, so just tell me which one you like? The princess will keep them for you. "

"Oh? Since when did you become interested in drawing red lines for others?"

Xia Xiaoqiao raised her almond eyes slightly when she heard the words, then shook her head and said, "With that kind of skill, why don't you find someone for yourself?"

Princess Lingshan's shoulders slumped when she heard the words, "Isn't this talking about you? Why are you talking about me?"

"I'm a married person and a good man. What does it matter to me? But you, I think Mr. Luo treats you quite differently. A few days ago, I heard that he often came to our Xiangmanlou to support him."

As soon as Luo Wenjing was mentioned, Princess Lingshan's face darkened instantly.

"Hey, he's a toad who wants to eat swan meat, and this princess doesn't like him. There's a sister who's duplicity, doesn't abide by women's morals, has private meetings with others, and seeks fame. What good thing can he be? "

As soon as she finished cursing, Xia Xiaoqiao's hand holding the tea bowl froze.

"Do not abide by women's morals, and have private meetings with others?"

At this time, Princess Lingshan also realized that she had said something wrong.

"Well, sister Xia, I didn't see anything, I was in the monastery that day—"

"So, they met at the monastery that day?"

Xia Xiaoqiao looked determined, and Lingshan County opened her mouth, but under the gaze of the other party, she was quickly defeated.

two days later

The night wind is gentle, and the crescent moon is in the sky.

Xia Xiaoqiao leaned on the railing on the balcony and looked at the moon with a glass of wine.

He looked lonely and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Sister Xia——"

At this time, Princess Lingshan came over and said cautiously: "Are you sad? Actually, that day——"

"not at all."

Xia Xiaoqiao interrupted her, then said with a smile: "Fate is something that cannot be forced."

After that, he took another sip of wine.

For a person like her who has experienced life and death for a long time, love is not so embarrassing.

Those friendships that fought side by side with her are also deeply rooted.

Most people are not as good as her in terms of tolerance for loss and emotional control, nor can she appreciate it.

"Sister Xia, it's best for you to think this way, men, aren't they all the same?"

Princess Lingshan immediately took a sip of wine.

"When my mother and concubine were alive, my father loved her very much. Any good things could be brought to my mother and concubine. My mother and concubine said that he would never go west. People outside said that my father and king were afraid of the inside, so he would not go west." Don't get angry, just guard my mother and concubine and me wholeheartedly, but even so, he still has a concubine—"

"You know, my concubine mother is a businessman. Her shrewdness is beyond the reach of ordinary people. She is such a shrewd and calculating person, but she always tells me that love is a word, and you can't force it."

"Actually, I still don't quite understand it until now, why can't I force it?"

"Until I was annulled, until that damned Lu Qing refused to marry me whatever he said, and insisted on marrying my extremely hypocritical and posturing younger sister, until no one protected me, not even my father and king. , At that moment, I seemed to understand a little bit what it means to be too forceful."

As she spoke, her eyes turned red, and Xia Xiaoqiao grabbed her hand: "Lingshan, it's not your fault."

"I know."

Princess Lingshan wiped away her tears and laughed at herself: "I don't care about people like them who do many wrongs, but I was sent to Lingzhou Mansion, and they still didn't let me go. "

"A few days ago, I just received a letter from home."

"That bastard Lu Qing and my shameless younger sister have fixed a date for marriage, and we will get married in February next year. My father wants to take me back for a reunion year."

"Heh, I really don't know what my father is thinking. He was the one who sent me here, and he is the one who wants to pick me up now? What do I do when I go back? They are the family, and I'm just a superfluous one. very?"

Go back and be laughed at?
Being robbed of her marriage by her younger sister, you still have to greet her with a smile and send her off to marry?

Show your sisterhood?
Pooh--

It's disgusting to think about.
