Chapter 56

After running a rice shop for so long, Fu Tian has indeed learned a lot and has a better understanding of the government decrees issued by Da Chu.

After the emperor ascended the throne, many new government orders were related to rural and commercial enterprises, such as markets that were not divided or closed at night, were issued after the new emperor ascended the throne.

It can be seen from the lines that Xinhuang supports business development.

Fu Tian quoted the classics and added some of his own understandings to the first question before noon.

After finishing the pen and waiting for the ink to dry out, Fu Tian wiped his hands casually, then took out the snacks that Fu Ji prepared for him and ate them. While eating, he looked at the next question.

The main test is only one day, from Chenchu ​​to Youzhen. If you are slower, it may not be enough. Fu Tian ate the snack in a few bites, then drank a few sips of water, then started writing to continue answering the questions.

The second question is the same as Fu Tian thought. Xinhuang focused on rural and commercial affairs. The first question was related to merchants, and the second question was naturally related to agriculture.

Fu Tian read a lot of books on agriculture, one is that he read a lot of miscellaneous books himself, and the other is that Zhou Chuanqing has told him the key points.

Zhou Chuanqing said that the emperor valued practice and did not like those good-sounding and beautiful but false content. Judging from the test questions in the past two years, "scholars, farmers, industry and commerce" must be the same, and "rural commerce" is the most important.

In the last month of preparation for the exam, Zhou Chuanqing focused on telling him about the government orders implemented by the ancients, and even analyzed whether these government orders were feasible in the current Great Chu based on the current situation of Great Chu.

Fu Tian sorted out the messy content in his mind, thought for a while before he carefully wrote it.

The strokes are written very carefully, with the occasional sound of the examiner walking past outside the compartment, and the sound of the time being heard every once in a while.

Fu Tian finished writing while he was tying the paper full of words, and smiled with satisfaction.

Now there is only the last question left, two essays and one poem, and the essay has been written, and the rest is naturally poetry.

Fu Tian was really not good at writing poetry. He looked sad for a while before he finally put up one.

After writing, Fu Tian sat upright and waited for the time to come. After a while, a crisp sound of gongs sounded outside, and then a noisy sound came.

When we arrived near Fu Tian, ​​the noise became louder. It seemed that some candidates had not finished their answers, so they begged the examiner to give him some more time.

The noise lasted for a while and ended with the cry of the candidates.

The door of the cubicle on Fu Tian opened, and the examiner's obviously unhappy face appeared. Fu Tian took the initiative to hand over the answer sheet, and the examiner's face became better.

After receiving the answer sheet, Fu Tian could not go out. He had to wait until the examiner had completed all the answer sheets and the gongs would ring again before the candidate could leave.

After waiting for almost half a quarter of an hour, the sound of the gong rang out. Fu Tian carried his small bag and walked out with the crowd.

There were many people going out, and the people they knew were crowded together and discussing the test questions with each other. But Fu Tian didn't have the heart to answer the questions. Anyway, he had finished writing, so the rest was not controlled by him.

After looking around for a while, he soon saw his own carriage and Chu Xiangtian outside the carriage.

As he struggled to squeeze out the surging crowd, Fu Tian walked in the direction of the carriage panting, but there were too many people and there was no order. Fu Tian walked forward a few steps, but was almost squeezed in the opposite direction by the people around him.

Chu Xiangtian narrowed his eyes and was surfing the crowd. When he saw the young master and a thin chick being squeezed around, he strode into the crowd.

He was tall and his face was not easy to get along with. The people in front of him subconsciously avoided him and gave up a passage. He took Fu Tian, ​​who was so squeezed out, and took the man out.

When she sat on the carriage, Fu Tian let out a long sigh and muttered, "There are so many people."

Chu Xiangtian sorted out his somewhat messy hair and said warmly: "Go to have a meal first?"

Fu Tian's stomach purred at the right time, scratched his face embarrassedly, and nodded slightly. He ate some snacks in the exam room and answered the questions for another afternoon. He was really hungry at this time.

After most of the candidates ahead dispersed, Fu Ji drove the carriage to the restaurant.

No one asked him how he was doing in the exam along the way. Chu Xiangtian observed his expression and saw that he was quite relaxed, he guessed that it should be pretty good.

When we arrived at the restaurant, the food had been prepared long ago. We just waited for someone to serve. Fu Tian ate three bowls of rice before touching his belly and burping.

Chu Xiangtian pursed his lips, held back his smile and pulled him out, "I've eaten too much, go have a meal and go back to rest."

Fu Tian blushed a little, and he was too hungry to support himself like this. Therefore, Chu Xiangtian led her out, but did not resist, and followed him downstairs obediently.

Zhou Chuanqing tsk twice in the back, his smile unsure.

Fu Ji chased after two steps, looking at the two figures, one tall and one short, and always felt something was wrong.

After finishing the meal, Fu Tian felt a little sleepy and yawned twice before he even arrived at the inn. Chu Xiangtian wanted to carry him back, but Fu Tian refused. He could only carefully protect the young master who was a little confused in Yawn.

After returning to the inn, Fu Tian took a simple wash and had a rest first. There was still a re-examination tomorrow, and he went to the examination room before dawn, so he had to rest and regain his energy.

Chu Xiangtian covered his belly with a thin blanket, and still held a fan and gently fanned him. He waited until the person was asleep before leaving.

The next day, he still got up in the dark and sent Fu Tian to the exam room.

The sky was not fully lit up, and the big lantern in front of the exam room was still lit. Fu Tian held his little bag and looked forward.

A commotion suddenly came from afar, as if someone was riding a horse directly. The guards didn't know what they saw, but they didn't stop them.

The long line was forced to be cut off from the middle, and a man riding a horse and wearing an official uniform looked around for a while, then rode his horse towards Fu Tian.

The candidates around him scattered, and Fu Tian subconsciously dispersed to the side. The official riding officer came to Fu Tian and turned and dismounted, "Wang——"

Fu Tian looked at him in panic, but unexpectedly, an arm suddenly stretched out behind him to stop the official officer who wanted to kneel down. Chu Xiangtian looked ugly and said coldly: "Enough, what's the matter?"

The official was stunned. Seeing Chu Xiangtian's expression, he swallowed, and responded honestly, then stepped aside.

"Is he here to find you?" Fu Tian looked a little confused. He looked at the official officer who was waiting honestly like a quail, and then looked at Chu Xiangtian with a cold expression. Even if he was slow, he understood that Chu Xiangtian's identity was extraordinary.

"You are not..." Fu Tian's mind was in chaos, and he was organizing his language with difficulty, and he was speechless for a moment.

Chu Xiangtian sighed. He had imagined many scenes of confessing his identity to Fu Tian, ​​but he did not expect that it was at such a time and occasion.

"You will be here soon. Take the exam first. When the exam is over, I will tell you what you want to know, okay?"

Rubbing his head, Chu Xiangtian looked at him seriously, his dark eyes as they used to hide a lot of tenderness.

Fu Tian's heart calmed down a little. The examiner in front of him read his name. Chu Xiangtian patted his back and pushed him forward for two steps. His voice was still gentle, "It's time for you, don't think too much. I'll tell you all when you finish the exam."

Fu Tian walked forward with his little bag in his arms and empty-mindedly. The examiner took him to the compartment to search and sent him a wooden sign, but he was confused throughout the whole process. Before entering the examination room, he looked back and saw Chu Xiangtian standing beside the carriage, and his eyes seemed to be looking at him through the crowd.

The chaotic thoughts calmed down for a moment. Fu Tian patted his face and told himself not to think too much. When he finished the exam, he would naturally know.

After entering the compartment, Fu Tian tried hard to put aside his chaotic thoughts, and waited for the examiner to answer the questions attentively after the paper was handed over...

Outside the exam room, Fu Tian was gone, Chu Xiangtian no longer concealed his anger at all, looked at the shivering person in front of him with a bad look, his voice was even colder than the coldest winter in the north, "What's the matter?"

The official who delivered the letter trembled and took out a letter from his arms, "The capital......8,800 miles of speed."

A wax seal was sealed on the cowhide envelope, and a five-clawed golden dragon surrounded by a red wax seal. Fu Ji's heart was stormy, and he naturally recognized this five-clawed golden dragon, which was only used by the royal family.

The eyes of Chu Xiangtian were filled with surprise. Chu Xiangtian opened the envelope, and there were only a few words in the letter, but the situation was urgent.

The two kings will rebel and return quickly.

Putting the envelope in his arms, Chu Xiangtian pushed the letter away, turned on his horse, took out a token from his arms and threw it back to Zhou Chuanqing, "I will return the token to you, and I will hand it over to you from the canal and the gold mine. The capital is in a hurry, I have to go back first."

The horse's hooves were raised and fell down. Chu Xiangtian's eyes looked deep, and hesitated and added another sentence, "Help me bring a word to Fu Tian, ​​saying that I'll explain to him when I come back."

After saying that, the horse's hooves were like the wind, and they ran away like a flying distance.

The two kings were the sons of the imperial concubine. When the late emperor was alive, the imperial concubine was quite favored. In addition, the mother's family was in power, and once on an equal footing with the queen in the palace.

If the queen hadn't been secretly plotting with him and his brother, after the death of the first emperor, he would not have known who the throne would have been.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, the imperial concubine was sent to the palace to celebrate her old age, while the second prince was left in the capital, and the sight was seen under his nose.

However, the second prince's lineage was supported by the previous emperor and its power should not be underestimated. The emperor knew that they had been planning secretly, but he could not find any evidence and could only weaken the power of the second prince's lineage step by step.
