The 30th year of Yonghe, the third day of the second lunar month.

Jinghua City, Gongyuan.

The Dragon Gate opened for the second time. The crowded candidates had been waiting eagerly all night. Outside the Dragon Gate of Gongyuan, it was as lively as a pot of boiling water.

Emperor Jing is about to visit the Gongyuan Examination Hall where he is seated. Today, it displays an extraordinarily solemn and solemn appearance.

Heavily guarded inside and out, the entire ten-mile-long Gongqian Street was surrounded from a distance so tightly that not even an ant could escape.

The candidates outside Longmen were so densely packed that they didn't dare to come out in this solemn and solemn atmosphere. They behaved like obedient scholars, excited and nervous, waiting for everyone to come.

The most special scientific expedition in the history of Jing Dynasty.

The officials, big and small, both inside and outside Longmen, were also lined up neatly, with low eyebrows and submissive eyes, respectfully welcoming the arrival of the Holy Master.

Lu Chengfeng put his hands behind his back and looked for his eldest brother Wu Jingmo among the bustling and orderly crowd.

But inadvertently, I discovered a thin and tall scholar in black shirt, with a simple green hairpin made of bamboo stuck directly on the high-rolled black hair.

The green hairpin was originally inconspicuous, but it was enough to make Lu Chengfeng stand out among the surging crowds for thousands of years!

His heart was immediately shocked!

is her!

Why is she here?

How could she be here!

The Dajing Dynasty has always accepted only men to participate in scientific examinations!

When can women come to Gongyuan to participate in the Spring Trial?

Lu Chengfeng rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then stared at his big, delicate eyes like a pair of big bells!

Seeing that the beautiful woman is now dressed as a man again, wearing a black and blue shirt, and with her slim and tall figure, when she stands there, she looks like a handsome young man who is graceful and independent from the world!

Who says women are inferior to men? Just because the daughter has not yet taken off her red makeup!

The first time Lu Chengfeng met her was on the night of the Taoist discussion at Jiuxianju.

At that time, he thought about the amazing remarks of this fairy from heaven, this woman is extraordinary! In the feudal period, a woman with such insights and talents was truly a rare woman in the world!

He also knew that You Zining always liked to dress up as a man and show off in Beijing.

However, what he never expected was that she would disguise herself as a man and become a Gongyuan candidate for the Spring Examination!

Is she not willing to be left alone, even though she is a woman, she still wants to dress up as a man and come to the Chunwei Examination Hall to prove her unique talent and knowledge?

It’s too incredible to think about it!

If it were in an ordinary examination room in the past, it would be okay. As the deputy examiner, I could still mediate and find a way to keep her safe!

However, today, the emperor's imperial chariot is visiting the Gongyuan examination room in person. If someone discovers her daughter during a body search, that would be the crime of deceiving the emperor! It is an unforgivable crime!

How could a girl as smart as You Zining be so confused and careless in the face of big things? She actually got herself into this dangerous predicament!

Lu Chengfeng's worried heart was twitching! His eyes just wanted to stare at her figure, locking his eyes tightly on her body, for fear that she would accidentally sew somewhere.

It's like he ran away!

It would be great if he could really escape! Lu Chengfeng thought to himself, his eyes wandering over his sweetheart.

You Zining's beautiful and refined face was as calm as ever, it could even be said to be indifferent.

However, her moon-shaped little lips were tightly pursed. Under the dark blue hair, there was a pair of small and smart ears, the base of which was already slightly red.

It seems that she did not expect this big scene.

She was just calm on the face, but she was extremely nervous in her heart.

Lu Chengfeng's heartbeat was up and down, like a small boat drifting with the current and breaking through the waves on the sea. He turned on his full power and wanted to get closer to the man, but was forced by the wind and waves and could only look in the direction of the distance.

Lu Chengfeng saw from a distance that You Zining's chest was shaking slightly, and he couldn't help but clenched his hands into two empty fists, and twisted all ten fingers nervously into his palms.

Oops! After passing the Longmen, there is the security inspection process at the Dajing Tributary Academy Examination Hall!

Well, you have to be searched!

Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but glance quickly at You Zining's chest, only to feel that the temperature on his face rose sharply, and it was instantly hot!

But she saw that there was a vast plain there. It seemed that she had thought of it a long time ago and had prepared a perfect plan.

You Zining, a person who is used to wearing men's clothing, may have studied the art of corseting deeply, so she can look so natural.

Lu Chengfeng glanced gently at her throat again.

There, it was completely covered by the stand-up collar of her black gown.

The male rabbit's feet are twitching, the female rabbit's eyes are blurry, and the two rabbits are walking next to each other. How can they tell whether I am male or female?

You Zining's dashing and bookish gown as a scholar makes her look like the elegant Hua Mulan in the examination room!

Still not working! Even if she prepared a perfect plan, it would be difficult for her true gender identity to be found out through the security inspection process. However, how could she bear it? The girl she cared about most was being raped right in front of her eyes by those careless people.

Where are the body searches by the petty officials?

It is tolerable, but what is intolerable!

When Lu Chengfeng thought of this, a wave of resentment suddenly came to his head! He lowered his head and walked towards the security checkpoint on the side of the dragon gate.

The petty officials standing by the array saw that His Highness the Emperor's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he walked towards their array with a dark face. They thought there was something wrong with the etiquette ceremony to welcome the Emperor.

Everyone felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy and started to tremble with fear.

"grown ups!"

"Your Highness!"

"Is something wrong?"

Some people's kneecaps were already weak, so they knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and asked.

There was anxiety in his tone.

"Get up!"

Lu Chengfeng frowned slightly and motioned to the kneeling officials to stand up.

"It's not a serious problem! However, since the imperial chariot is here today, our Gongyuan must be extremely energetic and cannot tolerate any sloppiness! Do you guys understand?"

"yes!"

The neatly lined up group shouted loudly and took orders.

"Very good! When I see His Majesty soon, I will have such a high-spirited and unfailing spirit in the face of danger!"

Lu Chengfeng deliberately put on a dignified posture as if he were on a mountain peak, pretending to be serious, and lectured his subordinates.

"Yes! Sir!"

Another neat response! Full of energy!

For these ordinary little officials, the emperor's majestic appearance is a rare sight! Naturally, they must be full of energy to welcome the emperor!

"Well done!"

Lu Chengfeng nodded slightly to show his affirmation, then turned his hands away and said seriously:

"Yesterday, there were some cheating candidates in the Gongyuan! You all searched carefully for me today! Be more serious! I will personally join the battle soon and participate in the body search!"

Lu Chengfeng gave the instructions seriously.

After saying that, the corner of his eye gently drifted in the direction of You Zining outside Longmen, he glanced quickly, and then looked away seriously, so as not to encounter her innocent and aloof demeanor.

Proud eyes.

It's like a primary school student who has done something bad, but his original intention is good, but he is afraid of being caught by the class teacher. He has the feeling of carefully hiding his thoughts from others.

"Yes! Sir!"

The officers and soldiers were encouraged by such a small thing as Lu Chengfeng personally participating in the body search, and their morale soared! They raised their voices by several decibels in unison and replied in unison.

"Okay! Is it almost time? Master He? How about opening the gantry now and letting the candidates in?"

Lu Chengfeng turned around and suggested to He Xuzhi, who was sitting at attention at the side.

"It's still a little early."

He Xuzhi turned his head, glanced at the stone sundial in the Gongyuan, and said.

He gently covered the large bowl of tea in his hand, then raised his hand and shook the tea bowl gently a few times.

Seeing the tea leaves floating in the tea bowl, I was instantly moved by the scene. I suddenly felt that tea is like life and life is like tea.

Since I entered Longmen and entered my official career, although I have not experienced any big winds and waves along the way, I have been floating up and down in the waves, involuntarily, just like the tea leaves in this tea bowl.

Then I looked up at the candidates who were waiting in the waiting room, but they were much quieter than before.

The tensed-up heads were very much like myself waiting uneasily outside the dragon gate for the opening ceremony.

So, he raised his hand, raised his chin, and ordered:

"Okay, let's put them all in first. Your Majesty can't come down all of a sudden and be panicked when you see the dragon gate inside and outside! Let everyone go!"
