Zhuang Rou hesitated again and again, but was persuaded by the man. She went back to get the account booklet, told the concierge, and left with the man.

This little girl is still new to the world, and her only defensiveness is to make herself hesitate, which is not enough to deal with this situation.

Time flies, and the first day of the college examination has arrived in the afternoon.

Because he had received special tutoring from Mr. Wang and Master Sun before, Li Yi's test-taking ability was already very strong. In addition, his mentality was very good this time, so he did not encounter any problems.

He looked at the manuscript in his hand again and again, and found that there were no mistakes in breaking the topic or citing scriptures, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Writing such an article can be regarded as normal performance. Li Yi had no regrets in his heart and was about to write down the answers in the article on the test paper.

At this time, people were already submitting their manuscripts one after another. Obviously, those who submitted such manuscripts were exam masters who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to show their faces in front of the examiner.

Li Yi looked up like the other candidates, but most of the other candidates looked envious, but Li Yi's face was calm.

Li Yi didn't know any of these great people, so he didn't bother to identify which celebrity he was, so he paid back his attention and wrote the test paper seriously.

Thinking about other things at this time is useless, it is better to focus on your own things.

It was still early to hand in the paper, but as some people started to hand in the paper, Li Yi clearly felt that the writing sound around him was much faster and more chaotic. It was obvious that they were also stimulated and wanted to catch up with the aunts who were handing in the paper.

Li Yi smiled and shook his head. He did not panic at all. He wrote down the answers one stroke at a time, trying to make the paper as neat and clean as possible.

I had just finished writing a piece when I heard a sudden exclamation from the exam room next door. No need to think that the ink must have stained the roll paper.

Everyone has a certain number of rolling papers, and if they are dirty and there is no way to replenish them, you will consider yourself unlucky.

Li Yi could only mourn for him in his heart. Just now he heard the sound of writing speeding up, which was from the exam room. He felt restless. When he was finally writing, he made such a low-level mistake. He could only say that he was defeated by himself.

Already.

I rely on my memory and quoting scriptures is my strong point, but my calligraphy is not up to the level of elegance. In this society where reading words is like reading people, I am at a disadvantage. But thinking about it, I don’t care. Now that the matter is over, I will try my best to write clearly.

Clearly, if you work hard, this can be done.

When Li Yiyu finished writing and handed in the paper, more and more candidates turned in the paper. Li Yi sat quietly for a quarter of an hour and looked at his paper twice. He found that there were no problems, and it was time to hand in the paper.

At this time, a scribe came to collect the papers, and they had to hand them in regardless of whether they were finished or not, otherwise they would be taken out directly.

After the papers were taken away, Li Yi stood up and followed the candidates who had submitted their papers to the dragon gate. Dozens of people lined up in a row. When the number of people was full, they were released.

Finally, because the exam was over, the door was fully opened, and there was no need to wait any longer. Li Yi walked slowly in the crowded crowd and walked out of the gate of Gongyuan. At this time, the candidates who had come out early had not yet left, and they were all waiting outside the door.

.

As soon as the dragon gate opened, the candidates who came out first immediately shouted to their friends with a relaxed look, looking for their fellow countrymen. For a while, there was a lot of excitement outside the gate, but the expressions of the scholars were mixed with sadness and joy.

Li Yi walked out of the dragon gate and heard a shout.

Turning around, he saw that it was Sun Zhi, Sun Zhi's scholar, who was calling him, but Sun Zhi had already come out and was standing next to the carriage looking at Li Yi with a smile.

Seeing his relaxed expression, Li Yi knew that he must have done well in the exam. He walked over and said with a smile, "Qianhe, it seems that you did well in the exam. You came out so early."

Sun Ce chuckled and said: "I have taken the exam once before. This time I have reviewed my homework for two more years. Naturally, I have to be more comfortable." After speaking, he looked at Li Yi and said: "What about you? How did you do in the exam?"

Li Yi smiled and said: "It's pretty smooth, I did my best."

Hearing what Li Yi said, that meant there was no mistake, Sun Ce said happily: "This time our brothers will definitely go to high school and get the title of scholar."

Li Yi said: "I hope so."

The most important thing for a scholar is humility and humility. After hearing this, Sun Zhen was ashamed of his big words. He waved his hands and said: "I have been sitting here for a day and my body is stiff. Go back quickly so that you can rest and prepare for the next step."

take an exam."

At that moment, Sun Zhi put down the bicycle frame and said with a smile: "Then we will go back home. After these two days of hard work, both the young master and the young master will be scholars."

After hearing this, Sun Cerium laughed and said: "You are a glib boy. When you really succeed, the young master will definitely reward you."

After hearing this, Sun Zhi smiled even more brightly and helped Sun Cerium get on the carriage.

Li Yi followed closely. At this time, Zhu Qilong came over holding the reins and whispered: "Sir, I just found someone watching me."

Hearing that someone was watching him, Li Yi was stunned and glanced at the side without leaving any trace.

Sure enough, there were several men in the crowd who were looking here frequently. Although they were hiding among the scholars, they were wearing the short shirts of ordinary people, which made them very conspicuous among the scholars. Li Yi could see them at a glance.

"Don't make any noise for now, let's talk about it when we get back." Li Yi whispered.

Zhu Qilong responded, waited until Li Yi got in the car, and drove the carriage towards Sun's mansion.

There was no trouble along the way. When Sun Zhen and Li Yi got off the carriage, the old concierge came out and said with a smile: "You two young masters, there are magpies croaking in the yard today. I think the two young masters must have won the first battle. This time

I’m on track to pass the college entrance examination and high school.”

These were words of congratulation and should not be taken seriously. After hearing this, Sun Ce smiled and said: "You have been busy these days, waiting for me to go to high school. Everyone will be rewarded."

When he heard that there was a reward, the wrinkles on the old porter's face squeezed together and he smiled and said, "Then I'll thank you for the reward first."

Sun Cerium nodded after hearing this and was about to enter the house. At this time, the concierge said: "Young master, please go slowly. I still have a message from Miss Zhuang Rou here."

Hearing that it was Zhuang Rou's message, Li Yi frowned and said, "Since it's a message, did that girl Zhuang Rou leave the mansion?"

The old servant immediately smiled and said: "Young Master Li Yi guessed it right. At noon today, a man came to see Miss Zhuang Rou. They chatted for a few words, and Miss Zhuang Rou left in a hurry, leaving me, the young master and the young master.

Say something."

Hearing Zhuang Rou leaving, Sun Ce also hurriedly said: "Do you know why Xiaorou left?"

The old servant shook his head and said: "The man urged her again and again, and Miss Zhuang Rou left in a hurry. He only said that he was sent by an adult named Shi Kefa."

Shi Kefa?

Li Yi and Sun Ce looked at each other and couldn't figure out why Shi Kefa would send someone to find Zhuang Rou.

Li Yi was silent for a moment and asked: "You said Miss Zhuang Rou left in a hurry, did she take anything with her before she left?"

The old servant obviously saw Li Yi's face become solemn, and immediately said: "Miss Zhuang Rou brought a baggage with her before she left, but I don't know what is in it. But when I looked at the person at the door, it was indeed

People in the government."

"How did you see it?" Li Yi asked.

The old servant smiled proudly after hearing this and said: "I have lived in the capital for five or six years. When I was an official, what official did I not see? So I still have this discernment."

After hearing what he said, Li Yi believed it.

Officials in the Ming Dynasty belong to the privileged class, which is indeed different from ordinary people and wealthy businessmen. The biggest difference is the word "prestige" mentioned by the old servant. Even a petty official has official prestige and official etiquette.

At this time, Sun Cerium turned his head and looked at Li Yi and said: "Zizheng, is it someone from the Mo family who came to find Zhuang Rou?"

Li Yi shook his head and said: "Everyone in Momen has been imprisoned, so it shouldn't be Momen."

After hearing this, Sun Ce showed worry on his face and said: "But it can't be Shi Kefa at all."

Li Yi also agreed after hearing this. No matter how fast he solved the case, Shi Kefa, whom he had just found the day before, would not need evidence today. Moreover, he had never mentioned the existence of Zhuang Rou at all. How did he know that he was in Sun

Mansion? How did you know that Zhuang Rou was the only one in the manor, and how did you specify that you were looking for her?

It was obvious that all this had been premeditated. This group of people had already secretly investigated themselves, and then took advantage of themselves and Sun Ce to take part in the college examination.

Documentary evidence received.

Thinking of this, Li Yi said categorically: "Now it seems that Zhuang Rou must have fallen into someone else's scheme and was coaxed out."

Although Sun Cerium was not as deep as Li Yi thought, he felt that Zhuang Rou must have been deceived. He was anxious and said worriedly: "But we don't know where she is, what should we do?"

Although Zhuang Rou had practiced martial arts, she was still a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl. Li Yi was also worried at the moment and could not speak.

Seeing this scene, Sun Cerium was even more anxious. He dodged the reins from Zhu Qilong and boarded the carriage.

When Li Yi saw it, he quickly grabbed Sun Ce and asked, "What are you doing?"

Sun Zhen's face was full of anxiety after hearing this, and he said in a quick voice: "Xiaorou is a weak woman, what will happen if she falls into the hands of bad people? I will go to the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and ask them to send people to search for her."

The Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division is a regular army that maintains law and order in the capital. It is the most important force in the entire outer city of the capital. Now Sun Ce did not even go to the government and went directly to the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division. This shows that he is really worried.

After hearing this, Li Yi grabbed him and said: "In addition to wasting the favor, you are just a headless fly. For the current plan, you should first figure out who is planning to deal with us."

Li Yi also gave good advice, fearing that Sun Ce would cause chaos if he cared.

But Li Yi never imagined how important Zhuang Rou was to Sun Cerium. When he pulled Sun Cerium, Sun Cerium suddenly pushed Li Yi in excitement and said angrily: "Think about it long term, think about it long term, wait until you remember well,

I don’t know how Xiaorou will be tortured.”

Li Yi felt baffled when he saw it, and said coldly: "Then what use can you do if you are like a headless fly?"

"What's the use?" Sun Cerium laughed angrily and looked at Li Yi fiercely: "I will mobilize officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress them. No matter where they are in the sky or on the ground, as long as they dare to hurt Xiaorou even a hair, I will make them miserable.

die."

These words made Li Yi frightened, and he quickly said: "Qianhe, don't get excited. They are obviously here for the Momen case, not for Xiaorou. If you make this matter bigger, you will force them to

Make a move on Xiaorou."

But at this time, Sun Cerium could no longer listen to the persuasion and roared at Li Yi: "If you want to sit back and wait for death, then wait here. I can't calm down. I want to save Xiaorou."

After speaking, he ignored Li Yi's obstruction and drove the carriage directly towards the Yamen of Wucheng Bingma Division.

Li Yi was angry and angry when he saw it. He couldn't understand how Sun Zhi, who usually knew the general situation, could become so excited. At the moment, he could only yell at the stunned Sun Zhi: "What are you doing standing still? Go and chase him."

Your young master."

Sun Zhi was startled, and when he saw Li Yi's angry eyes, he shrank his head and chased after the carriage in the direction it was leaving.
