Chapter 23

Lu Shiming went to the border city 14 years ago. He was angry and left home. He took part in the imperial examination at the age of 16. Although the merchant's son was allowed to take part in the imperial examination at that time, in fact, it was not easy for the son of a businessman to pass the imperial examination. Lu Shiming was conceited to be able to pass the top 10, and even if he failed, there would be a second grade.

However, he failed in the list. Later, he learned that his name was replaced by someone else. Moreover, his big brother agreed to replace his name, and finally won the fifth place.

His replacement was the son of the governor of the south of the Yangtze River. For the sake of the business of the Lu family, uncle Lu sacrificed his brother's reputation in the imperial examination. Although Lu Shiming was angry, he still tolerated it for the sake of his family.

Three years later, he took the examination again. This time, he failed to replace him. However, he failed because he was born in a merchant and didn't flatter the examiners.

At that time, there were many disadvantages in the dark examination room. The examiners embezzled and sold many test questions. After he failed in the list, he made his examination papers public. That year, the examiner was despised by the students from all over the world. Obviously, Lu Shiming's talent was not lost to the number one scholar.

Lu Shiming didn't know whether he was young or not. Three years later, he took the exam again. This time, he was one of the top three. In the imperial examination, the emperor ordered him to be the tanhualang.

After becoming a tanhualang, Lu Shiming made an excuse to leave Kyoto with his wife and children, and went to the border city to open a small hospital. For 14 years, it was not until the death of the late emperor that the king of Qin usurped the throne and killed the hunyong prince. Lu Shiming decided to return.

Now he hesitated to call him an official.

"Uncle, I know you have ambition in your heart. It was my father who was sorry for you. After so many years in the border town, didn't you want to do something for the common people in the world one day?" Lu Lingzhi asked in a low voice.

Lu Shiming said with a faint smile, "your father didn't owe me. He was for the Lu family. I will consider what you said."

"Well, I'll wait for the good news from my uncle." Lu Lingzhi laughed. If it wasn't for his father's sorry that the third uncle was in the first place, how could the old lady allow the third uncle to be away for so many years? Moreover, among so many uncles, the third uncle is the most different.

Lu Shiming said with a smile, "I have one more thing to ask you. I want to find a husband for Xiang Zhi's examination next year."

"Uncle, it's on me. I'll arrange it." Lu Lingzhi said.

"Good." Lu Shiming nodded with a smile and said to Lu Xiangzhi, "thank you very much."

Lu Xiangzhi scratched his hair, "thank you very much."

"We're brothers. It's out of the question to say that." Lu Ling's way.

……

……

Ye Zhen returned to his room, only to know that Lu Er and Lu Si girls have come to look for her.

"Third sister, it's a pity that you weren't there at that time. The imperial concubine and empress rewarded many things. You see, these flowers are only found in the palace and can't be bought outside." Miss Lu Er points to the delicate and beautiful pearl flowers on her head, and her face is filled with joy.

"Well, it's very nice." Ye Zhen nods with a smile, and then she has seen the beautiful pearl jewelry. How can she envy these? What's more, what's more, what's more, what's more, she really doesn't want it.

Lu Si girl squint at Ye Zhen, did not see the look of envy and jealousy in Ye Zhen's eyes, she felt a little unwilling, "heard that sister went hunting?"

"Well." Ye Zhen nodded, a little confused, do not understand what these two sisters really want to do, want to show off that they get Lu Shuanger's reward?

Miss Lu Si coughed softly, picked up her tea cup and took a sip of tea. "I heard that you are with your elder brother. So Who else? "

Ye Zhen thinks Lu Si this word asks some strange, "still have, some of his friends."

"I remember that a friend of my eldest brother has a surname of Tang. He is young and already a marquis. Have you seen him?" Lu Si asked again, his cheeks flushed.

"Do you mean Tang Zhen?" After Mo Rong Zhan ascended the throne, he knighted all those who had helped him. The old lord of the Lu family was Marquis Anyang. Now Marquis naturally falls on the head of Lu Ling, while Tang Zhen is the Marquis of Jingning.

Both the Lu family and the Tang family are the most dazzling upstarts in Kyoto.

"Have you met Jingning Hou?" Lu Si sat up straight, his eyes staring at Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen looked at Lu Si's eyes, as if he wanted to rob her of something. She said with a smile, "if you said Tang Zhen, that's met, we also had a competition, but he lost."

Lu Siyan big eyes looking at Ye Zhen, "what do you say? What did you compare with Jingning Hou? How could he lose to you? "

"He just lost the game. You see, he lost the silver whip to me." Anyway, the story of their competition will spread sooner or later. Instead of what Lu Si heard from other places at that time, it's better to say it yourself.

Lu Si looks at the silver whip hanging on the wall by Ye Zhen. Her face suddenly turns pale. The cold ice silk silver whip is a worry in the world. She can't mistake it. Tang Zhen actually gives the silver whip to Lu Yaoyao.

"Third sister, I didn't expect that your archery was so powerful that even Jingning Marquis lost to you." Lu Er's face is not very good-looking, she originally wanted to let the third sister envy her, now it seems, do not know who envies whom.Tang Zhen is very conspicuous in Kyoto recently, especially attracted the attention of his wife and girls, because he has not yet been engaged. Now he is in a high position and has been trusted by the emperor. I wonder how many girls want to marry him.

Lu Si reluctantly said with a smile, "sister three, what do you want this silver whip for?"

"Don't do much, just put it on the table." Ye Zhen said.

"That's a pity. I like it very much. Why don't you give it to me?" Lu Si girl said, did not think Ye Zhen by what to give her silver whip.

Ye Zhen looked at her with a smile, "not good."

This Lu Si girl is really funny. Why should she give her a silver whip? She looks like she should take it for granted.

Miss Lu Si smiles reluctantly, but she doesn't force her.

"We won't disturb my sister's rest." Miss Lu Er also felt that sitting here was boring. She took Lu Si and left with Ye Zhen.

Send off the two girls, Ye Zhen will that cold ice silk silver whip from the wall down, in the hand waved a few times, feel very handy, and it will hang back.

This is the booty, belongs to her Ye Zhen.

At night, before going to sleep, Ye Zhen asked people to draw water to wash her face. She looked at the Phoenix bird on her palm, and her heart read it together. There was a drop of red Lingquan in the palm. She put the Lingquan in the pear blossom cream for skin care, and mixed it before wiping it on her face and hands.

Now, when she takes a bath, she always uses drilingquan in the water. These two days, she feels that her discomfort has disappeared, just like It's like being reborn. Even the sense of smell is better than usual.

However, it seems that the skin has not turned white, it seems that we should take time.
