Chapter 81

Knowing the results of the rankings, Lin Yuan and Qi Yingyu simply sat in the restaurant facing the street, waiting for a glimpse of the scene of the "horse hoof disease" of the imperial examination scholars.The two drank tea and ate snacks, talked and laughed, and with the happy event coming, the atmosphere became much more relaxed than before.

It's just that Lin Yuan and Qi Yingyu met other acquaintances before they got what they wanted to see.

Seeing Li Yan and Li Wei appearing in this restaurant at the same time, Lin Yuan smiled and stood up to say hello, not too curious about why they were together.She secretly glanced at Qi Yingyu. Qi Yingyu, who was in a good mood before, became a little reserved for some reason, and only talked to Li Yan, not even looking at Li Yan.Apart from the previous greetings, the two of them didn't say a word.

Lin Yuansu knew that they had a good relationship, and this was the first time she had seen such an unremarkable situation, and she hadn't heard anything specifically mentioned by Qi Yingyu. There is no doubt about it.

Lin Yuan thought that Qi Yingyu would never hide anything from her in the past, but she never mentioned Li Sui's matter to her, and she didn't know what Qi Yingyu really thought in her heart.

Li Yan and Li Xuan seemed to have booked another table, but knowing that they were here, they simply put together a table and did not sit separately.

As soon as Li Yanfu sat down, she said, "Well, it took my father to agree with me to come out for an hour. On the way here, I heard that this year's No. [-] scholar is a middle-aged man in his thirties, and the second place is not a young man. I'm afraid the top three will be there later. Only Tanhualang stands out among the street parades." He didn't appear to be born separately from Lin Yuan and Qi Yingyu at all.

Qi Yingyu just laughed and didn't answer, so Lin Yuan smiled and said, "I never expected my little cousin to achieve such good grades." She still observed Li Zhen secretly, and the other party had two eyes on his face. The smile is the same as usual, and nothing can be seen at all.Lin Yuan glanced at Qi Yingyu again, Qi Yingyu seemed a little absent-minded.

Li Yan hardly spoke, Qi Yingyu was also silent, and Li Yan was always spoken by Lin Yuan.She listened to the conversation between Li Yan and her, but she seemed to be quietly inquiring about Lin Jing's affairs inside and outside the words, and her heart was a little clearer than when Li Yan first came here.

After chatting for a while, the long street below was crowded with people. It was obvious what happened.In the past, there were many common people who would join in the fun every time when the number one scholar, the second place, and the third place went out, and it is the same today.Lin Yuan remembered that when Qi Haoran came back from the border last year, there were many people on both sides of the street at that time, and it seemed that there were many more people than today.

The common people are just joining in the fun, even if they just take a look at it from a distance, they can chat and laugh with their relatives and friends when they go back, say a word or two about the demeanor of the champion, or comment on how they look and how they look. A person with both talent and appearance.By the way, ask which one His Majesty the Emperor has praised, say a few words about this person's future, or other interesting things you heard.

For them, although these things are far away, they are still willing to chat a few words, and treat it as a rare interesting thing in a boring and uninteresting life.

Among the crowded crowd, there were only three people riding the long street on tall horses, and all of them looked like spring breeze.When you have to be happy like this, even if you are usually unsmiling, you probably have to put on a gentle appearance. You can't raise your face so that people will think that you are dissatisfied.

Just like what Li Yan said before, the number one scholar at the head is a middle-aged man in his 30s. From a distance, he can't see clearly, but he feels that although this person looks a little high-spirited, he is hard to hide. The color of exhaustion.

Lin Yuan thought that her elder brother Lin Xuan was also about the same age, but she only felt that her elder brother looked more mature than before, but he didn't feel old at all.If you compare the two with this number one scholar, I'm afraid you will feel that your brother is much younger.

The one in the middle is the second place in this year's scientific examination.He is tall, at least sitting on horseback like this, he is almost half a head taller than Lin Jing.Lin Yuan knew her little cousin's height, he was slightly taller than her brothers, and taller than most of the men, but he couldn't compare to this second place.

Compared with the number one scholar, he seemed to be more complacent, and occasionally waved slightly towards the common people.Seeing this scene, Li Yan approached Lin Yuan with a smile, and said to her, "It's not easy for this second place, coming from a poor family, without the support of the family, it is probably more difficult than many others. "Many people in Li Yan's words naturally refer to those who have family support.

Lin Yuan nodded vaguely, and did not express any opinion on this topic. Li Yan didn't mind, and her attention quickly shifted to Lin Jing who was walking last among the three.

Lin Jing, who was in his early twenties, was indeed the most eye-catching among the three. Even if he was far away, such a good-looking appearance would still dazzle him at first glance, and he would immediately believe that this was a very good-looking person.He sat upright on the horseback, followed the other two in an orderly manner without any superfluous movements, and did not look sideways, only with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

In the end it was after the Zhongju that he waited until now to participate in the scientific examination. Although it is a bit exaggerated, it does mean that he has honed his sword for ten years.Even if I have prepared steadily for a few more years, but my efforts have reaped good results, I am not unhappy. After all, my efforts have been affirmed.

Lin Yuan thought back to what her little cousin had said to her more than two months ago, and then thought of the sentence she persuaded. I am afraid that he was more or less taken to heart in the end, and it was about "do your best and obey the destiny" mean.Maybe it's because I think it's better to fight for it than to give up without doing anything.

"Your cousin..." Li Yan looked at Lin Jing for a while, and then said to Lin Yuan slowly, "He is a good-looking person." She smiled, "I didn't waste my time to catch such a look, good appearance It’s always pleasing to the eye.” After all, this was a bold statement, but there were only a few people they knew well, and no one cared much about it.

What's more, Lin Yuan still agrees with Li Yan's words.No matter who it is, regardless of connotation and other things, I prefer to see people with exquisite and good-looking appearance, because this is the first impression.It's just that no matter how good-looking a person is, if he looks at it every day, he will feel numb, or become used to it, so things like temperament and connotation are more important in comparison.

The figures of Lin Jing and the others gradually faded away. Li Yan sat down and drank two more cups of tea, then got up and left. There was not much left if there was a delay on the road for an hour. It's not a good thing to be reluctant to go back.

Li Yan stayed with Li Yan just like when he came, and left just like that. Lin Yuan thought for a while, he seemed to have only said two or three words when he came and left, and seeing Qi Yingyu's dazed look again, he couldn't help feeling even more A little more consideration.Qi Yingyu didn't say many words when Li Yan and Li Xuan were there, and now she's gone...

"What's wrong?" Lin Yuan stretched out her hand and shook Qi Yingyu in front of her to bring her back to her senses. She sat down again and asked.

Qi Yingyu pursed her lips and did not speak. Lin Yuan lifted the teapot and poured her a cup of warm tea, handed it to her, and just said, "Drink some tea." Qi Yingyu glanced at the teacup, then stretched out her hand He held it and sat down, but his movements seemed a little slower than usual.

After she sat down, she seemed to think for a while, slowly sipped her tea, and after a long time, she said to Lin Yuan without thinking, "I haven't seen him for almost three months. "

Lin Yuan quickly realized that the "he" that Qi Yingyu said was referring to Li Su, paused for a moment, and then asked, "This has never happened before, has it?"

Qi Yingyu nodded her head, just holding the teacup, she didn't drink tea anymore and didn't seem to want to talk any more, she just sat there quietly.Lin Yuan wanted to ask her what happened. Seeing Qi Yingyu's state, she was not sure whether it was appropriate or not. She thought it might be better for her to tell her. After all, all her thoughts were based on speculation.

After sitting opposite each other for a while, Qi Yingyu remained silent, so Lin Yuan could only say, "Should we go back now?"

Qi Yingyu didn't understand Lin Yuan's words at the moment. After looking at Lin Yuan blankly for a while, she realized it and immediately nodded her head and said yes.

Lin Yuanyue felt a little uneasy, thinking that it would be more appropriate to ask clearly after all.

When the two of them were in the same carriage, there was no one else. After thinking about organizing their words, Lin Yuan asked Qi Yingyu softly, "Did something unpleasant happen between you and General Li?" She asked a little cautiously, because this question was so direct, maybe Qi Yingyu would not want to say anything after hearing it.After all, Qi Yingyu hadn't taken the initiative to mention this matter with her for so long, so she undoubtedly didn't want to mention it.

Sure enough, Lin Yuan's question made the already silent Qi Yingyu even more silent, and the expression on her face became more and more tangled, as if she couldn't make up her mind to say it or not, and it seemed that there was something else. easy.This silence lasted for a quarter of an hour. Lin Yuan waited patiently for Qi Yingyu to speak, and finally she finally waited.
