At this moment, in the pavilion, a woman was sitting there, holding the book in one hand, but her mind was not there at all. The other hand was holding the skirt of her clothes tightly, showing her nervousness.
This woman was Yin Man. When she learned that A Chao was looking for Li Zhao, she waited here nervously and uneasily.
The poet she admired most was coming soon. Although they had met several times and were relatively familiar with each other, she couldn't help but feel excited inside. The woman's reserve made it even harder for her to let go.
Qiuxiang very wisely did not show up, saying that she was fertilizing, but there was no one in the flower garden, so Yinman naturally knew what she was thinking.
Soon, Ah Chao came first, followed by Li Zhao, who seemed so impatient.
Just so impatient.
Yin Man was the only woman he fell in love with in Da Qin. This woman actually invited him to meet her. The meaning contained in this made him daydream.
"Achao has met the princess."
Ah Chao came to Yin Man and bowed to pay homage. Li Zhao also came over and bowed his hands.
"No need to be polite!" Yin Man looked at Li Zhao, and the feeling in his heart completely changed.
At first, I felt that Li Zhao was a scoundrel. After he saved me, he changed a lot. However, this change only made me feel a little better, and it didn't go beyond the relationship between men and women.
Later, I learned that he had wiped out the bandits, and even showed great success during the eastward tour. He had saved his father many times, and gradually he fell in love with him. But now, knowing that he was the author of Xuan Mo's selected poems, he fell in love in vain.
Yes, it is the princess' love for her courtiers, and it is getting stronger.
Perhaps Li Zhao would not have thought of this.
When Ah Chao saw the two people's eyes facing each other, he smiled knowingly, and like Qiu Xiang, he excused himself and left. For a moment, there were only two people left in the pavilion.
One is handsome and the other is beautiful. From a distance, they seem to be a perfect match.
However, just like this, both of them became embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
It's like a couple who hasn't seen each other for many years. Their feelings are hidden in their hearts but they can't bear to express them.
Finally, Yin Man broke the embarrassment and asked: "Are you Xuan Mo?"
When he said this, his eyes were looking forward to it, and he was very emotional.
Li Zhao didn't hide anything. He spread his hands and said, "It should be considered." He didn't want to deceive Yin Man. Indeed, it should only be considered, not absolutely. After all, he stole those poets, even though these poets were not born.
In Yinman's eyes, Li Zhao was speaking of modesty. Humility is a traditional virtue of the ancients. Having such a virtue definitely leaves a good impression on people, and this is also true in Yinman's mind.
Yin Man was very satisfied and immediately smiled. This smile was like a white flower blooming, making all living beings pale.
Seeing the goddess' smile, Li Zhao couldn't help but be fascinated by it for several breaths.
She was so beautiful, breathtakingly beautiful.
At this moment, he dared to look at the goddess seriously, and his whole body was lost in thought when he saw her smile.
"Are you really?" Even if Yin Man knew that Xuan Mo was Li Zhao, she couldn't help but be excited. Her heart was pounding, and she couldn't help but step forward and hold Li Zhao's hand, feeling extremely excited.
"I heard that it took you half a day to write these poems? You are so amazing."
Li Zhao nodded awkwardly. He wrote well, but it was all plagiarism! Plagiarizing dozens of songs in half a day is relatively slow.
The green onions and jade fingers are in hand, and the fragrance hits your face.
Being held by the goddess like this, Li Zhao didn't know how to react. His face turned red and his heart was beating loudly.
This feeling was both nerve-wracking and unstoppable. It was very wonderful. He wanted to shake off his hand, but deep down in his heart he would never allow him to do so. He even longed for the goddess to hold her hand longer.
"It's so beautiful when you keep cutting, but it's still messy! Are you writing because of me, or messing up because of me?" Yin Man became a fan girl, put down all her reserve, and kept shaking Li Zhao's hand. , eyes full of emotion and curiosity.
Li Zhao was stunned. Yin Man's question was too unreserved. As a man, he didn't know how to answer. He wanted to mess with her, but in the sense that it was his first intimate contact, it couldn't be so explicit!
"should."
Yin Man didn't seem to hear his hesitation, and looked at her with round eyes, "Xunxunmi, are you looking for me? Miserable, you feel miserable because you can't find me, right?"
"Really? Right?" Yin Man shook Li Zhao's hand vigorously, completely unaware of the difference between men and women.
this? This is another embarrassing question. Deep down in his heart, Li Zhao really wanted to say yes, I am looking for you, but his mouth was so disobedient that he couldn't say it out.
Just when she didn't know what to do, Yin Man let go of her hand and gently moved away. Her delicate fingers moved together in a wonderful way. Even when she was freed from Li Zhao's hand, she was still so touching.
But Li Zhao was very disappointed. He finally had physical contact, but it was so short.
He is weird! Do you blame yourself for not answering? Maybe after answering the goddess's hand would not let go, maybe he could go one step further.
Yin Man turned his head, thinking and thinking, his brows full of intoxication.
"Tearful eyes asking for flowers without saying a word, endless tears of lovesickness."
"It turns out that your affection for me is already so deep."
Yin Man completely let go of her reserve and became more open-minded in her speech, which was so shocking to Li Zhao's ears.
He was attracted to the goddess, but not to the point of missing her with blood and tears! This woman was too understanding, which made him more reserved than the woman.
Suddenly, Yin Man suddenly turned his head, looked at Li Zhao with bright eyes, and asked: "Li Zhao, do you love me very much?"
ah!
This question didn't look like a woman from ancient times at all. Li Zhao was stunned on the spot, and his consciousness almost short-circuited. This brain circuit was so strange.
But, I really want to say, yes, yes! But the words were held in my heart and I couldn't say them out.
"Really?" Yin Man pouted when Li Zhao didn't answer.
"Humph, if you don't say anything, I'll take it as your acquiescence."
This all works.
Li Zhao hates the cold, but he feels beautiful in his heart. He can't wait to say it right away, so let's just acquiesce! But it was difficult for him to say anything, so he could only look at Yin Man and smile.
Yin Man also smiled. At this moment, she was drunk by Li Zhao's poems and found that she was so unreservedly womanly in front of this man.
For a time, the two fell into silence again. The atmosphere made Li Zhao feel unnatural, but he enjoyed it.
This is a true world of two people, and the two hearts are slowly getting closer.
As time passed, the two figures gradually disappeared in the mist of late autumn, and only the whispers quietly slipped away in the back garden.
Finally, the much-anticipated list is about to be released.
At this moment, the place where the imperial examination supervisors posted the results was filled with people in a square mile, all in groups of three or five, nervously looking forward to it. There were dignitaries, ordinary people, some sitting in carriages, and some looking eagerly.
In the Gao Mansion, Gao Fugui was caught and beaten by Gao Qiu because the son sent invitations to his relatives and friends alone, saying that he was shortlisted and they all came to congratulate him.
After Gao Qiu learned what had happened, he was so angry that he couldn't eat for a day, but the invitation he sent could never be taken back. Even if he could take it back, he didn't have the shame to accept it.
He had no choice but to vent his anger on his son.
He knew very well what his son's level was. Wasn't this going to embarrass him and the entire Gao family? The Gao family finally established a foothold in Xianyang and gained a little respect among relatives and friends, but this respect was ruined by their son and was about to be shattered.
Because of this, when he heard that the results would be released today, he didn't even dare to show up, so he asked for a few days' leave, which was called sick leave. In fact, he didn't dare to see anyone.
"Old man, why don't you believe it? I will definitely be shortlisted for your son, hehe! I heard that the results will be released today. If you don't believe it, just go and take a look. My name must be high and rich."
Gao Fugui grabbed the stick swung by his father and said with unusual confidence.
"Look at the list?" Gao Qiu was out of breath, but with an angry face, "Don't you think I'm embarrassed enough? If you can be on the list, you will be my father."
When it came to this, Gao Fugui didn't dare to accept it no matter how confident he was. "You are my father" was a bit exaggerated. Although he was a playboy, he was a filial son.
"Forget it! You will know how amazing your son is. It is not difficult for your son to be shortlisted. I am afraid that your son can even enter the third list."
Gao Fugui is still so confident.
After hearing this, Gao Qiu didn't want to talk anymore, and he didn't bother to hit his son again. At some point, he noticed that his son's words were getting more and more ridiculous.
At this moment, a guest suddenly came to the door.
"Brother Gao, you are well and well. I heard that you have won the honorary title. Chen is here to congratulate you."
The person who came had a noble look, a smile on his face, and bowed his hands, but there was ill-intent in his eyes.
"Brother Chen, why are you here?" Gao Qiu was very surprised to see this person. It should be noted that he and this person are colleagues. Although they are usually in harmony on the surface, they are fighting with each other secretly. To be able to climb up.
They are their respective strong competitors.
Gao Fugui was confused, the person he invited was not there.
"Hey! I found out that Brother Gao was itchy, so I came to visit. Brother Gao didn't want to see anyone outside." Chen You clasped his fists, as if the two of them were very familiar with each other.
"You're welcome." Gao Qiu clasped his fists politely, but he hated this person in his heart.
It was a visit here and there, obviously here to see his jokes. For a moment, he turned his head and stared at his son fiercely. If this kid hadn't invited relatives and friends, would this son have come here?
"I heard that you invited relatives and friends to a banquet to congratulate you on your wealth. If Chen happens to be at the meeting, I'm going to bother you." Chen You came to know him and walked into the Gaofu alone.
Indeed, today is a banquet for relatives and friends. The banquet is almost ready and we are just waiting for the arrival of relatives and friends.
Seeing the back of the man walking in, Gao Qiu hated himself. Why did he catch his son and not let him go here? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have seen this beast and you wouldn’t have been embarrassed in front of him.
He really comes to whatever he wants to avoid!
Soon, relatives and friends came to the door, which seemed quite lively, but Gao Qiu disappeared. Only Gao Fugui greeted him with a smile, as if he had really won the lottery, although the lottery was not open yet.
There were more and more people at the place where the list was posted, and they were about to overcrowd the imperial examination supervisor. At this time, a guard came out and immediately opened a place at the place where the list was posted. Then someone from the imperial examination supervisor came out, holding a copy in his hand. Needless to say, the document must contain a list of things to be published.
This time, the crowd became tense and the noisy scene immediately became quiet.
Mr. Shen was among them, surrounded by admirers, and there was no shortage of flattering words.
"This huge crowd of people, at first glance, they are here for Mr. Shen."
"Yes, no need to look, Mr. Shen must be number one on the list, those students are just his foils!"
Mr. Shen listened and felt extremely helpful. He raised his head slightly, showing his arrogance and confidence.
"Master Shen is here."
At this time, someone recognized Shen and looked at him with unusually fiery eyes.
This voice was not low-pitched, and it immediately attracted the attention of many students, who all cast their fiery glances.
Many students have heard about this popular figure. No, when the figure most likely to win the top spot appears, flattery and flattery are inevitable. For a moment, all kinds of pleasant voices echoed around Shen, making him feel elated.
Cao Shen also came. He originally planned to invite Xiao He to come with him, but when he thought of Li Zhao's hatefulness and abomination, he gave up the idea and found a few close friends and came.
However, for such an important matter, he believed that Xiao He would handle it on his own.
He was standing not far away, naturally seeing Shen's limelight, but he didn't care. He couldn't compare with people like Mr. Shen, so he certainly didn't mean to be jealous. He didn't dare to hold out hope for the third list, he only hoped that he could be shortlisted, even if he was at the bottom of the list.
Cao Shen glanced around, hoping to see Xiao He, but to his disappointment, there was no figure of Xiao He.
"Hey! Maybe brother has given up. It's no wonder. He was hurt like this by the bastard Li Zhao. It's strange that he can be shortlisted. Brother is an arrogant person. Seeing that he has no hope, he will naturally not come to embarrass himself."
Cao Shen sighed and said to himself, feeling very sorry for his brother, but he was helpless. He couldn't beat Li Zhao'er!
"The list is posted!" Someone shouted, interrupting Cao Shen's muttering. He immediately became nervous and looked in and out with the flow of people.
"Let Mr. Shen pass." Among the crowd, the admirers opened the way for Shen. Shen put on a graceful look and walked in gracefully to the front of the list.
At this time, the list was announced, and the first person to be announced was the person under the list.
Mr. Shen looked at it with great disdain. This list is for the bottom of the list. "Down" means useless. How could he appear here? The reason why he looked was just to show his modesty.
He looked up from the bottom, and names passed through his eyes one by one. Sure enough, his name was not there, but he thought it was reasonable, and he felt even more elated.
When he saw Shusunfu ranked fifth, he was ridiculed in his heart. Shusunfu was almost as famous as him, but he could only be at the bottom of the list, not first. He felt that he had looked down on Shusunfu before, so all the Everyone looked up to Shu Sunfu.
He is nothing more than that. At this moment, he can no longer compare with him.
Mr. Shen felt even more aloof and arrogant, feeling that no one in the world could compete with him.
At this moment, Cao Shen was also looking at the list. When he saw himself, he couldn't help but feel excited and his hands trembled. He had always lived up to expectations. He won, and he was not at the bottom of the list. He, Cao Shen, was able to stand out.
For a moment, I sighed again.
If my brother had not been harmed by Li Zhao, he would definitely have been shortlisted, and he might even have been in the third list.
"Hey! Brother is really useless."
Cao Shen said to himself, but he was not in a hurry to leave. He wanted to see who the third list was.
There is no doubt that the first one on the list must be Young Master Shen. He had previously guessed that Shusunfu could also be on the list, but when he saw Shusunfu on the lower list, he was naturally excluded.
"Who will be on the second and third list?"
"It's not Shusunfu. Could it be that a great unknown talent has appeared in our Qin Dynasty?" Cao Shen thought, and it happened to be on the list at this time.
He looked from below.
Number three on the list was empty, which surprised him. However, he had no chance of being on the list, and he wasn't obsessed with it. He continued to look up. Number two on the list, yes, yes, turned out to be high and rich.
"Gao Fugui? Who is it?" He had never heard of it. "Maybe he is a little-known talent!"
He didn't take it to heart, so he looked nervously at the first one on the list. At this moment, the two extremely conspicuous names on the first list made him startled. He couldn't believe it at all, and his expression was stunned for a while. .
First on the list, Xiao He.
