Time flies by, and it’s the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the next year in a blink of an eye.
After Lingqing, Lu Dongbin and their two younger brothers celebrated the fifteenth day at home, they packed up and set off for Chang'an City.
An imperial examination will be held at the end of January or early February every year, and other exams will be counted separately.
This year's imperial examination was held in early February.
Ling Qing and Lu Dongbin were each riding a horse, carrying a sword behind their backs. Their faces looked like the same person.
After all, the two were born from the same mother.
But the difference is that Lu Dongbin was dressed in white and wore a Huayang scarf.
Lingqing, on the other hand, was wearing a blue-grey, almost green Taoist robe, with a simple Taoist bun on his head.
The two younger brothers were still young and sat in the carriage together.
Since Yongle County is not far from Chang'an City, Ling and Lu each have swordsmanship.
Therefore, except for the two younger brothers who each brought a bookboy and a coachman to drive, there were no other escorts.
He set off in the morning and entered the city at noon. When he arrived in the city, he stayed at the home of his eldest brother Lu Ji.
After taking a short rest, the eldest brother took the four of them, each from each household, to submit their poems for circulation and evaluation by the high-ranking officials and scholars in the court.
This can not only increase the success rate of passing the imperial examination, but also obtain the qualifications for the imperial examination.
After all, if you want to take the imperial examination, you need someone to guarantee you and someone to make your name famous.
After a lot of trouble, at the end of February, the results of the imperial examination came out.
The four sons of the Lu family applied for Jinshi together, but except for the fifth son Lu Xuan, the other three failed.
However, Lingqing did not pay attention to the meaning of the scriptures when he was a child. Although he had been studying for a year, judging from his performance in school, it was expected that he would fail.
On the contrary, it was the hit that surprised everyone.
Lu Can, the sixth child, is only sixteen years old now because he is young, and he has not studied for a few years in total.
And this is also his first time to participate, so he just wants to experience it.
But Lu Dongbin was different.
He has been very talented since he was a child. He was able to write at the age of ten and martial arts at the age of fourteen. He has taken the imperial examination for the sixth time since he was sixteen.
High hopes were placed on him again and again, but his reputation fell behind Sunshan again and again.
The eldest brother opened his mouth when he saw him, but he didn't dare to speak.
I was afraid that if I didn't pay attention to that sentence, it would break his heart.
Above the heaven, the Eight Immortals have already returned to their positions: Tieguaili, Han Zhongli, Zhang Guolao, He Xiangu, Lan Cai and five others.
At this time, the five people were cultivating sincerely after Donghua's reincarnation, and from time to time they discussed what Donghua would be like after his reincarnation.
"Calculate the time, after the master is reincarnated, he should have grown up, right?" At this time, the five people were drinking and having fun, and suddenly Han Zhongli made a calculation and said.
"Do you think that after the reincarnation of Emperor Donghua, will he be as straight-faced and serious as before?" Tieguai Li asked.
"Hahaha, what's the point?" Han Zhongli smiled.
Then he straightened his face and imitated the appearance of his master, Emperor Donghua, stroking his beard with a serious expression.
The lifelike appearance made several other people suddenly happy.
"By the way, I wonder what he has become now?" He Xiangu smiled for a while and then suddenly remembered.
"That's not that simple. Can't you just take a look and you'll know?" Han Zhongli said, fanning the treasure in his hand, and the clouds and mist dispersed in front of everyone's eyes, revealing a scene.
Among them, Ling Qingzheng and Lu Dongbin were seen wandering outside Chang'an City.
"How come there are two Donghua Emperors?" Everyone exclaimed when they saw it.
Han Zhongli made some calculations and said: "It turns out that when master was reincarnated, he had a brother from the same mother.
One of them must be that brother. "
"Then which one is the reincarnation of the emperor?" The other four looked at him and asked.
"Let me do the math, do the math." Han Zhongli said, counting in his hands.
"Hiss!" He took a breath and started calculating again.
"Is it settled?"
"Don't worry, let me calculate carefully." Han Zhongli said and calculated for the third time.
"Which one is the reincarnation of Emperor Donghua? Aren't you his disciple? How can it count for so long?" The others asked in confusion.
"If I say it's both, do you think it's possible?" Han Zhongli put away his amulet and looked at the people hesitantly.
"How is this possible? How can one person be reincarnated into two people?
It must be that you have been lazy these days and are not good at calculating. It depends on me. "Tieguai Li said and began to calculate.
"Huh?"
"How about it?"
"I'll do the math again." Tieguai Li also started calculating for the second time.
After a while, he scratched his head and said, "Shouldn't it be? It's really both?"
"Look, I'll just say it." Han Zhongli spread his hands and said.
"Why are you so proud? You want Emperor Donghua to return to his throne. Now two of them appear at once. What should you do?" Tieguai Li couldn't help but said after seeing the proud look on his face.
"this……"
Han Zhongli was splashed with cold water and began to have a headache.
Yes, if there is one more person, the one who will be in trouble in the future will be himself.
I'm not afraid of saving someone more than once, but I'm afraid that if I make a mistake, the Eight Immortals will not be able to return to their throne, which will be very difficult.
"It's useless to say so much now. Let's go and see for ourselves. It just so happens that it's time for Emperor Donghua to return to his throne." Zhang Guolao said to the point after seeing this.
"That's right, can you tell if you go and see it?" Everyone said, turned around and went down to the boundary.
First, he found a dilapidated hut in Zhongnan Mountain and used magic to turn it into a happy home.
Then discuss what to do.
"For today's plan, we can't figure out who is the reincarnation of Emperor Donghua.
We can only try the two together. If both of them have immortal bones, it doesn't matter if they are converted together.
If one of them is false, it will definitely fail our test. "Han Zhongli stated his plan.
"That's fine, it's up to you to make the decision." Everyone nodded.
After all, it is up to him to save it, and he still has the final say on how to do it.
"Well, of these two people, one is keen on fame and wealth, while the other is interested in the road.
We are like this, like this. "Zhong Liquan patted his belly and said to everyone.
Lu Dongbin was very depressed because he failed the exam again, so he took Lingqing out to drink and go out.
On the way, he looked at Ling Qing and said, "Aren't you disappointed that you failed the exam this time?"
"I'm not seeking fame. I came to take part in the imperial examination. I just came to fulfill my grandfather's last wish at the request of my parents.
Now that I failed the exam, I just told my parents to give up their intention of letting me take the imperial examination. It's too late to be happy, so why be disappointed? "Ling Qing smiled.
"Hey, I am a Confucian who wants peace. Xuanying has a strong ambition to be a commoner. Who can compete for fame and wealth in the world? I want to serve the emperor and go to Yuqing." Lu Dongbin sighed and chanted loudly.
"What a poem, what a poem!"
From the nearby wine shop, a sound of praise came, attracting their attention.
Lingqing and Lu Dongbin looked over and saw a tall, strange-looking Taoist in white clothes with a double bun, applauding with a smile on his face.

Seeing the two people looking over, the Taoist looked at Lu Dongbin and said, "I think this is the famous Lu Dongbin.
It is indeed a brilliant literary talent. "
Then he looked at Ling Qing and said: "And this is the lost and recovered fourth son of Lu Mansion, Lu Daoqing, right?
It's better to meet by chance than to invite each other. Today, I am destined to invite you two for a drink. I wonder if you two would like to show your respect? "
"Since the Taoist Master has invited us, how dare we refuse?" Lu Dongbin was about to drink, but after hearing this, he immediately stepped into the wine shop.
Lingqing saw it and followed him in.
When the Taoist saw Ling Qing and the others sitting down, he called out: "Shopkeeper, hurry up and warm up the wine. I'm going to entertain guests today."
"Waiter, warm up Taoist Master's wine." An old man with white hair and beard at the counter called.
"Okay." A waiter held a charcoal stove with a wine jar warming on it.
He came to the three of them and put it down, saying: "Master Dao, this is the best Huangliang wine in our store. It has been prepared for you."
"Huangliang wine?" Lingqing's heart moved after hearing this, and he carefully looked at the Taoist in front of him.
However, although his appearance was strange, Lingqing could not see anything unusual about it.
"What? The Fourth Young Master has also heard of this wine?" The Taoist looked at Ling Qing and asked.
"I just heard a strange story from hearsay, saying that there is a kind of Huangliang wine that can make people dream of Huaxu." Ling Qingruo pointed out.
"It turns out that the Fourth Young Master has also heard the story of the Yellow Emperor's dream of Huaxu." The Taoist laughed and said, "Then I wonder if you are willing to experience it?"
Before he finished speaking, the aroma of wine came from Lingqing's nose, and then his eyelids began to fight.
Before he could mobilize the innate energy in his body to crack it, he fell down on the table.
Before he fell, he saw Lu Dongbin already lying on the table.
"I didn't expect that this Lu Daoqing would be much more alert than Lu Dongbin." The Taoist suddenly transformed into Han Zhongli.
The waiter on the side also turned into Lan Caihe and shouted: "Thankfully I saw the opportunity early and activated the properties of Huangliang wine, otherwise it would be really difficult for him to fall asleep."
The shopkeeper turned into Zhang Guolao, and Tieguai Li and He Xiangu appeared beside him.
He Xiangu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Stop talking. If you hadn't let it slip, you wouldn't have caught his attention."
"Who would have thought that he still knew the story of Yimeng Huaxu and Huangliangjiu?" Lan Caihedu muttered.
"Okay, the two of them have fallen asleep now. If we hurry up, they should wake up." Tieguai Li advised from the side.
"Okay, let's do what we said before." Han Zhongli slapped his treasure fan and said.
"Wait a minute!" He Xiangu saw everyone preparing to cast a spell, and quickly stopped her and asked, "Do you really want me to play the role of a lady for them two?"
"Otherwise? Donghua is reincarnated and has to live through a millennium of love tribulations. If we don't try his opinion on the word love now, how can we know who Donghua is?
How do you know whether his love disaster will happen to you in the future? Han Zhongli asked, spreading his hands.
"Don't Caihe also want to pretend to be a girl? It's fine for each of us." He Xiangu rolled her eyes and looked at Lan Caihe and said.
