Chapter 175 Prelude to the Imperial Examination (1)
Afterwards, Liu Sheng took a rest and fell into a deep sleep soon after.
The day was too long, too many things happened, and socializing consumed a lot of energy, and her physical and mental energy was exhausted.
The Liu Shengs on duty cooperated with the little tentacles and the world, and still maintained good study habits after sleeping, not wasting every minute or second.
Especially after listening to what Ling Yuke said, I need to strengthen and consolidate the part about the Supreme God.
Revitalize theology, cultivate sacred books, and build temples.
What these all mean requires careful study and discussion.
Liu Sheng did not doubt what Ling Yuke said.
According to her father's status and her flamboyant temperament, if she gave the wrong information, she would definitely be embarrassed to see others from now on.
So, I flipped through the books overnight and hurriedly passed by.
Early the next morning, Liu Sheng hurriedly looked for his spiritual message as soon as he woke up.
As soon as I opened it, I finally saw Wen Weilan’s reply among the many messy messages, and my hanging heart finally calmed down.
【Be well, don’t think about it, I’ll see you in Chang’an soon and we’ll talk in detail. 】
This short line of words made Liu Sheng read it over and over several times. This cold text was indeed Miss Wen’s style.
But she still couldn't explain clearly what happened.
However, since they had said, "I will see you in Chang'an soon and we will discuss it in detail", Liu Sheng suddenly became excited. He originally thought that he would have to wait until after the imperial examination to meet again, but now it seems that this time can be shortened a lot.
Now, Liu Sheng could calm down and prepare for the imperial examination.
After all, before leaving, Wen Weilan threatened Liu Sheng with gritted teeth that he must pass the exam and not let her live up to her intention of digging out the money from the dowry to support her.
After washing up, Liu Sheng and Wang Dongdong ate the morning food brought by Yun Xianju together, and then devoted themselves to reviewing.
There are only four days left until I can take the test. Time is really tight.
Even Wang Dongdong, who has always been playful and noisy, decided after yesterday that it was better to stay indoors, so as not to be unlucky when going out, which would cause additional problems.
Just like Yang Qing, a person who was going to take the imperial examination is now in jail, and he doesn’t know what will happen.
......
At this time, in the Dali Temple Prison, a warder wiped the blood on his hands and walked out of the door.
There is a person walking outside the door, with a plain appearance and ordinary clothes.
"The person... the little one has been dealt with... without leaving any traces." The warder whispered as he passed by the man and handed something over.
The man didn't say anything, put away his things, and then very discreetly took out a storage bag from his sleeve, and passed it to the jailer by passing by.
The whole process was very fast, there was no one in the yard, and the transaction was completed.
The warder walked into the courtyard and stretched, hiding the storage bag deep in his sleeves, and then gave the man a fierce look.
The man lowered his head and folded his sleeves, as if he had been scolded for walking here by mistake, and hurried out timidly.
When he arrived outside Dali Temple, the man drove around for several times before finding a cloud sedan parked in an alley.
The man handed the things gathered in his sleeves to the people in the sedan. The sleeves hung down and were full of blood.
Then, a piece of clothing was thrown out.
"Change into it and give me your old clothes." The calm male voice in the sedan chair was rather cold.
"Yes, sir." The man was very respectful, quickly changed his clothes, and sent the blood-stained old clothes in through the curtain.
"Is everything taken care of?" the man inside asked.
“Yes, my lord.”
“Where is the jailer?”
“I will soon be speechless.”
“That will do. Do you know what to do? ”
"Don't worry, sir, I will keep my mouth shut. You have been so kind to me, and I will never betray you." The man promised nervously.
The people in the sedan did not speak.
Then, the cloud sedan rose into the sky, leaving the man standing there with his head bowed.
Standing all the time, motionless. Until a salesman walked into the alley carrying a load and wanted to sit down and rest.
After resting for a while, I realized that the man had not moved from beginning to end, and I realized something was wrong.
The salesman tiptoed over and with a gentle push, the man was broken into countless pieces of meat.
So, a scream broke the morning calm in Xingningfang City.
……
Outside the ceremony department.
Jiang Cai got off the cloud sedan, checked his hands again, and then hurried inside.
“Siwu Jiang, why are you here?”
When they arrived at the office, Siwu Jiang, who was a junior official in the Ministry of Rites like Jiang Caizhi, saw his appearance and asked him He raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Yes, my mother is not feeling well today. I took her to the hospital to have a look. I also told Mr. He."
"Siwu Jiang is indeed a filial son." Siwu Jiang said lukewarmly.
Jiang Caizhi smiled apologetically, "But did it delay your work?"
"That's not true, but He Shilang was afraid that he had forgotten that you were coming late and kept asking me if you were there. It seemed that he wanted something. I want to entrust you with this matter." Jiang Siwu said coldly without raising his head.
"Okay, thank you Jiang Siwu for letting me know. I'll go find him right away." Jiang Caizhi didn't seem to notice her attitude, and still smiled and looked kind.
Siwu Jiang gave a noncommittal hum, then lowered his head to work on his paperwork and ignored Jiang Cai's arrival.
Jiang Caizhi turned around with a sneer on his lips.
He had long been accustomed to this and didn't care much. Anyway, being reused by Shangguan was the most important thing.
Immediately, he hummed a little tune and walked briskly towards Minister He's office.
"Servant He, I heard that you are looking for me?"
Jiang Caizhi knocked on the door and entered after receiving the answer. As soon as he entered, he saluted and asked hurriedly. .
He Shilang smiled to himself when he saw Jiang Caizhi looking like a new public official who was eager to get ahead.
"Cai Zhi, you have been in the Ministry of Etiquette for two years, right? Are you still used to it?" He Shilang did not answer Jiang Cai Zhi's words, but chatted about family matters.
Before getting down to business, talking about him first is a common tactic used by all the top players in the world.
Jiang Caizhi was naturally aware of the matter, and just followed the words of Minister He and replied: "In reply to Minister He, it will be exactly two years, no more, no less."
"Yes, again. It was about this time three years ago that you entered the National Academy of Sciences, and within a year, you entered the Ministry of Etiquette. "I remember that year, you were the top talent," He Shilang. He tapped his forehead and seemed to just remember.
"Yes, Minister He has a good memory." Jiang Caizhi understood that this was a sign of intimacy from Minister He and hurried up the steps.
“After all, it’s rare to see someone so handsome and worthy of the title of “Treasure Flower”.” He Shilang chuckled, “It’s a pity that my daughter is still young, otherwise I would definitely capture you as my son-in-law.”
To be fair, , Jiang Caizhi has a "good son-in-law" face that reassures his elders. He has regular facial features with no sharp edges and corners, and is gentle and loyal.
Although there is still some recklessness among young people, this is also a good thing. It shows that he is motivated and is considered extremely calm and practical among his peers.
"Shilang He is overly praised." Jiang Caizhi hurriedly said a few words modestly.
"It's been two years, it's time for a promotion." He Shilang suddenly said.
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Caizhi's breathing paused for a moment.
It took a while before I understood what Shilang He meant.
"My lord, I am really ashamed to thank Mr. He for your appreciation..."
"Without saying so much nonsense, I will give you a task first." Mr. He interrupted. Jiang Caizhi's clichés were straight to the point.
"Please tell me, Mr. He."
"Please give this letter to the Dean of the National Academy of Sciences. Remember, hand it to him personally."
He Shilang took out a thin envelope , put on the table.
Although there was still a smile on his lips, his eyes were as sharp as lightning, as if he wanted to see Jiang Cai in his heart.
Happy Labor Day!
