study

The candlelight flashes in the study room and flows quietly.

The old lady sat in the Grand Master's chair behind the desk, her turbid eyes narrowed slightly. I don't know if she was thinking about things or feeling tired.

The maid brought two cups of tea and closed the door when she left.

The window paper reflected the maid's shadow walking. When the shadows and footsteps disappeared, the old lady opened a crack in her eyes and spoke slowly: "I don't know what happened to the young master visiting late at night."

"Here I'm here to come."

"Go to the appointment?"

Li Xianyuan said: "When I was in the exam room during the day, a dead soul followed me. I thought it was the second lady of the Li family. At that time, I told her that she would come to visit her, and now she is here to make an appointment."

"The young master and Tong Sheng's attempt have already spread all over Wuhou City. A few days ago, he was unwilling to invite the young master to marry Wan'er, and now he is still the only one who can jump into the dragon gate. My Wan'er is ignorant and bothered you. I will apologize to you again."

"It's okay."

The old lady's tone softened a little: "But... Master Li really won't think about it anymore? Wan'er follows you, which means she likes you so much. My Li family has no males, so sooner or later this large industry will be yours in the future."

"Marriage matters need to be reported to parents, and they have no father or mother, and they are alone. Then the marriage is naturally the one who decides. The love between men and women is caused by the heart and cannot be forced. If you really marry Miss Li for the sake of the Li family business... If you don't say what the old lady thinks, the Li family will laugh at me in the future."

Li Xianyuan looked serious. After farewell to Ji Canghai, he seemed to have become the boy with indifferent temperament again.

"Please tell Miss Li Er that humans and ghosts are different."

There was already a man dressed in a woman at home, and Ji Canghai was entangled. There were many ghosts, and life was impossible.

"I can't see Wan'er... I can only know her existence through other ways."

It seemed that according to the old lady's words, the pen hanging by the table suddenly fell over for no reason, and precious brushes were hung on the table.

"Look, this girl is acting like a little bitch." The old lady chuckled, then sighed softly: "Well... I can't force it. But if the young master changes his mind, my Li family will welcome you at any time."

He said goodbye to the old lady and left the Li family. Li Xianyuan looked back at the empty and desolate streets. A few breezes brought a small spiral and rolled the dark paper.

A little coldness filled the surroundings. Thinking of Ji Canghai, Li Xianyuan's heart melted a little bit in his heart, and he accelerated his pace toward the inn.

I lifted the curtain and entered the inn. The inn was not closed yet, but there were no guests. The guy was dozing on the counter. Hearing the person greeted him, he went to sleep again.

When I returned to the upper floor and pushed the door into the room, I saw Ji Canghai sitting in front of the round table, holding his cheeks with his hands, and swaying straight with his two thin legs under the table, looking bored.

Hearing the visitor, he turned his head and covered his forehead with a curtain of black hair. Seeing that it was Li Xianyuan, Ji Canghai's eyes lit up. He brushed off the black hair on his forehead and was about to rush to Li Xianyuan's arms.

Li Xianyuan raised a finger and hit Ji Canghai's eyebrows, making him unable to make a move.

"What are you doing?" Ji Canghai pouted and looked at Li Xianyuan pitifully.

"I should ask you this." Li Xianyuan lit up Ji Canghai's eyebrows and walked around him and came to the table.

The table is covered with scattered invitations.

"What is this?" Li Xianyuan withdrew his hand and picked up an invitation.

The invitation is gold stamping on the edge, which is extremely luxurious. This one is not affordable to buy Li Xianyuan, but now it only exists as an invitation.

A few big words for flying dragons and phoenixes on red paper: Sent to Li Xianyuan

Looking at it, the Xue family in the east of the city invited Li Xianyuan to visit. When they opened other invitations, they invited Li Xianyuan to visit and attend the banquet.

"Are we going?" Ji Canghai poked his head out from behind and put his chin on Li Xianyuan's shoulder and said.

"Let's talk about it later." Li Xianyuan's shoulders shook, Ji Canghai let out a pain, covered his mouth and looked at Li Xianyuan with tears in his eyes, stamping his feet and said vaguely: "I'm so old!"

"Oh? I'll give you a blow?" Li Xianyuan opened the invitation one by one, even though he knew the content was the same, he took out the letter paper in the invitation one by one to read it.

"Roar, roar." Ji Canghai immediately smiled happily and his little head squeezed in front of Li Xianyuan.

Ji Canghai's eyes were closed, his eyelashes were trembling slightly. His two pale pink red lips were slightly opened.

Li Xianyuan felt confused and forced her to look away.

Ji Canghai waited for a long time without any movement. He opened his eyes strangely and saw Li Xianyuan taking out all the papers of the invitation and throwing them into the basin of the gold-plated covers.

“That’s it?”

Li Xianyuan waited for the paper to melt, took out the gold foil and rolled it into a small ball, and said without looking back: "Funds for starting. I always need money to print books."

"Li's La Bin Journey to the West?"

"Yes." Li Xianyuan weighed the size of gold particles in his fingernail, which was a bit heavy. The 100 taels of silver bill he had borrowed before had been returned to Ji Canghai. Once the brothel escaped, the account would naturally not be settled, and there would be no expense.

...

The next day

Li Xianyuan, who was sleeping on the table, woke up early. Seeing that Ji Canghai was still sleeping soundly, she didn't call him. She smoothed the wrinkles on her long gown, picked up willow branches to clean her teeth, and after it was sparse, she untied her long hair and regained it into the Taoist temple.

The boy in the bronze mirror has a great temperament, and the indifferent temperament between his eyebrows is like a banished immortal descending to earth.

Li Xianyuan's brows were not easily noticed and slightly frowned, and she pulled her cheeks again, trying to make herself look closer.

Close the door and go downstairs alone. The waiter led Li Xianyuan to the uninhabited table with an extremely enthusiastic attitude, and quickly served the snacks and tea.

Just when Li Xianyuan was surprised, he saw the inn owner coming up with a smile and bowed, "Young Master is here to take the exam, right?"

“That’s right.”

"That's right, these are freely delivered to the store. I hope you, Mr., will get a good ranking and will be very boastful to meet customers in the future."

"It's easy to say." Li Xianyuan also bowed.

After eating the breakfast provided by the inn owner for free, Li Xianyuan left the inn and went out on the street. Before he walked far, Ji Canghai stuck up like a candy and insisted on following him.

Li Xianyuan and Ji Canghai came to the examination room and found that the list was already in a mess. Countless candidates and relatives and friends were waiting for the moment when the list was announced.

Li Xianyuan and the other two were too conspicuous. They were recognized as soon as they arrived, and the sound of making friends continued to be heard.

The sun gradually rose, and the crowd suddenly became a little turbulent. From the people around, I realized that it was the pre-determined case leader Xu Zhitian. Judging from the strange phenomenon alone, Xu Zhitian sat firmly in the head of Tongsheng's case examination this time.

The government did not let the crowd wait for too long. After a while, the gate of the examination room was slowly opened. The county magistrate and the chief clerk surrounded the examiner and walked past the threshold. Standing on the steps and looking down at everyone. Several officers and soldiers pushed out the list covered with red cloth.

Li Xianyuan and the other two were too far away to hear clearly and cannot see. But soon, he learned from the commotion of the crowd-

The first case of this exam is Li Xianyuan!

Crazy-

The crowd scattered a large area, and a large open space was empty around Li Xianyuan.

Li Xianyuan was not surprised by the result this time. Li Bai's poem could not capture the case, and only the other party would cheat.

However, after just a few breaths, the crowd became riots, and several yamen runners pushed away the crowd in front of him and walked to Li Xianyuan. The chief official sentiment was full of voice: "You are Li Xianyuan."

Li Xianyuan said: "It's me."

"Did you fight with someone at the Shangfang Courtyard last night?"

"What's wrong."

"When that person died, his companion sued the county government office. Li's case leader, come with me!"
