Less than half a month later.
"My son is promising, he is really promising."
Mr. Li stroked his beard happily.
These days, he is very proud of himself. Not only is he proud of his business success, but his son is also studying hard as if he is enlightened.
Before, Li Xuan showed his strong martial arts talent and defeated the martial artist named Zhao. He was not happy at all and even scolded him.
But now...he is really happy.
Happy, Mr. Li suddenly looked at the lady on one side and said: "Madam, if Xiaoxuan really passes the exam, do we still have to fulfill the marriage contract of the Tian family?
What if he is favored by some high-ranking official and recruited as his son-in-law?
What if he can go to the prefecture and pass the provincial examination again and become a candidate? "
The eldest lady covered her lips and laughed, then broke Master Li's daydream and said, "How long has Xuan'er been studying?"
Although Mr. Li knew it was impossible, he was in a good mood recently, so he patted his chest and said confidently: "My son, nothing is impossible."
"Maybe, maybe." The eldest lady said with a smile.
Mr. Li also laughed.
Is it impossible? Which of the two is unclear?
Mainly because I am happy recently.
The flower-picking thief suddenly disappeared for unknown reasons, and the family got a lot of benefits for nothing. How could he not be happy?
...
...
time flies...
Three springs.
The Li family prepared carriages, horses, luggage, county documents and some silver.
They also sent martial arts servants to escort them all the way and sent the two young masters to Baihua Mansion.
Because the second young master was still young, the second lady of the Li family also accompanied him all the way.
On Li Xuan's side, he brought Wei Yao.
Ever since Wei Yao saved his life and guarded the house for him, she has become Young Master Li's personal bodyguard, taking him with her wherever she goes.
...
Southwest of Xiongshan County, it takes about three days to reach Baihuafu City.
The most dangerous section of the road is actually the half day just after leaving the county.
To the north is the tail of the remaining veins of Honghua Mountain, and to the south are the hills near Luanyagang, where bandits are wreaking havoc.
The leader of the team, the martial artist Wang Tie, was the leader during the previous siege of the Demonic Leopard. He was a top-notch master in the world, and his strength was similar to that of Zhao Kui. This time, he brought dozens of cavalry to escort the carriages and horses out of the city.
After passing the mountains of Honghua Mountain and Luanyugang, Wang Tiecai asked some of the Li family's cavalry to return. He himself continued to escort with four well-dressed cavalry, and then he would also accompany Young Master Li and his second wife. Live in Baihua Mansion and wait for orders.
The journey was uneventful.
The Li family arrived at the outer city of Baihua Mansion.
After entering the city, everyone went to find a place to stay.
In fact, the location of this capital city is also quite famous. It is not like the county town where there are only inns and restaurants. If you have money, you can live there.
In Fucheng, there are three types of residences.
The first type is a store.
Stores were often opened privately and anyone with money could live there.
The second type is the museum.
The museum usually only accepts official guests, or students who come to Fucheng to take the college examination and their accompanying persons.
The student's voucher for moving in is a certification document similar to that recommended by the county. This certification document can not only be used to live in the library, but is also one of the documents that must be provided when taking the college examination later.
Of course, the magistrate of Xiongshan County has long since died, and the official who is temporarily in charge of issuing documents in the county is entirely a member of the Li family. The Li family can issue as many orders as they want.
The third type is the post.
The only service recipients of the hotel are officials. As long as you bring something that can prove your identity, you can stay for free. After that, the hotel will also provide meals and transportation. Even the Yi in Zhoucheng will provide many additional services.
Li Xuan and his party naturally stayed at the Magnolia Pavilion in Baihua Mansion.
Magnolia Pavilion is not in the outer city, but in the inner city.
The outer city is a mixed bag, but the security in the inner city is quite good.
Wang Tie went to the front desk of the Magnolia Hotel and completed the check-in procedures for the host. Soon, a waiter from the hotel led the Li family to an independent house.
A restaurant or inn is just a building, and the residents are just one room.
But Guanyi and the like are large areas similar to manors. In addition to high-rise buildings, there are also houses and houses specially designed for officials and their relatives to stay.
From this point alone, we can see the difference between an official and a ruthless man.
Even if you are a master of martial arts, without official documents, you can only stay in a hotel, and you can't even think of coming here.
...
...
In the Magnolia Pavilion, the house is quite elegant and quiet.
After the meal, Li Xuan took a bath and changed clothes to wash away his fatigue, and then continued to read.
He has high mental attributes and is not tired, so even at the fourth watch, the oil paper on the window is still lit.
That night, Li Zhili wanted to have sex with him, but just after taking a bath, he yawned all the time.
How can a child who is only ten years old still have the energy to study after a long journey?
Even though the second lady showed off her unique skills of tearing off ears, pulling out eyelids, and frying meat with bamboo shoots, Li Zhili still couldn't wake up.
The second lady could only give up.
The next day, the two young masters of the Li family went to register together with their paperwork and confirmed the exam time.
After coming back, the involution started again.
At this time, it was the time for Baihua Mansion to take the exam, and many people who came to and from the building came to take the exam.
Moreover, when making arrangements, the owner of the Magnolia Hall will also deliberately arrange the students together.
So...
Unknowingly, an atmosphere of involution was created.
...
Midnight...
Li Zhili's eyelids felt like they were filled with lead. Every time he used all his strength to open his eyelids, they would fall down again.
All the words in front of me became blurry and turned into a hypnotic spell.
Slowly, not only his eyelids were filled with lead, but also his head was filled with lead. Little by little, he couldn't lift it up.
Li Zhili just gritted his teeth and wasted his time.
Suddenly, he raised his head again and glanced at the lighted window not far away, as well as Young Master Li who was obviously studying hard behind the window.
Why is it obvious?
Because Young Master Li is actually studying.
Young Master Li turned his head slightly and found that his mother was still staring at him.
The corners of his mouth twitched.
'Brother, why? '
'Why are you doing this to me?
'I hate you. '
'hate you! '
Men don't shed tears easily. Young Master Li's face was expressionless, but the tears in his heart could no longer be suppressed.
...
A few days later.
Midnight watch.
Magnolia Pavilion.
In a yard near the house where the Li family lived, there was a bookish young man in white looking at the bright window next door, frowning slightly, but then gritted his teeth, gave up his intention to rest, and continued to hold up the book. .
Fourth watch.
The boy in white looked next door again.
The light was still on, and there was the faint sound of reading.
The young man in white took a deep breath and said, "Isn't it because I learned late that I am great?"
He went to sleep angrily, but when the rooster crowed, he tried his best to push himself up. When he looked next door, the light was still on!
"Did you stay up all night, or did you get up again?"
"Damn it, damn it."
...
...
Less than half a month later.
Li Xuan was crowned the "King of Unscrolled Internal Scrolls".
All the students who live in the Magnolia Hall know that he is such a big figure.
Some people disagreed, some sneered inwardly, but some found it interesting.
Soon, students came to visit.
After the Li family guard reported the matter, Li Xuan strode out, only to see two young masters and a young lady in the distance, both wearing brocade clothes, looking at him curiously.
The four of them looked like scholars, saluted each other, and then exchanged names and feet.
After learning that Li Xuannai was the eldest son of the Li family in Xiongshan County, the expressions in the eyes of the three students changed. They no longer looked at him, but looked at him with level eyes.
The parents of these three people were either rich or noble in Baihua Mansion, so they naturally disdained to interact with common people.
The reason why the three of them came here was mostly out of curiosity. If the other party was an ordinary student, it would be fun to watch.
But the Xiongshan Li family is also well-known in Baihua Mansion and is qualified to interact with them.
In addition, things in Xiongshan County have been spread in recent days.
The three of them asked curiously.
The four of them were similar in age, and after checking each other's eyes, they knew that each other was a playboy, and they quickly got along with each other.
Let’s talk about those three people.
The two young men were Cao Wen, the youngest son of the prefect of Baihua Prefecture, and Lin Jianfeng, the legitimate son of the Lin family.
And that girl is also Cao Yi, the youngest daughter of the prefect's family.
Needless to say, the prefect’s family.
The Lin family is one of the few families in Baihua Mansion. Among them, the chief executive of the Qinghe Canal Twelve Chain Dock is the younger brother of the head of the Lin family. The head of the Lin family himself is the head of the Parkson Chamber of Commerce, which can be regarded as a gathering of merchants and martial arts families.
As the legitimate son, Lin Jianfeng came to take the exam mainly to broaden his social circle.
These three people could actually live at home. The reason why they came to Magnolia Pavilion instead was to have more atmosphere to prepare for the exam.
...
For several days, these four people interacted with each other, recited poems, wrote poems, danced and wrote, and became familiar with each other.
On this day, when Lin Jianfeng was bidding farewell to Li Xuan, he suddenly smiled and said: "Brother Li, after the college examination, my Lin family has a little meeting at Yanziwu in the south of Baihuafu City to meet friends through literature. The people who come are all young heroes from all over the world. Are you free?" Get together?"
Li Xuan came to participate in the college examination, originally to break into more circles, have more information channels, and purchase tips. At this time, he readily agreed, clasped his fists and said, "That would be disrespectful."
Lin Jianfeng laughed boldly and said, "When the time comes, I will arrange carriages and horses to pick up Brother Li."
