The spring day is brilliant, the sun is warm, and in the West Corner Courtyard, Lu Zheng is standing in the middle of the courtyard, grinding ink and laying paper, and concentrating on writing.

His spirit is highly concentrated, dedicated, and forgetful.

Lu Zheng's calligraphy is now a small achievement, which is all the credit of his writing of large characters, writing large characters to practice calligraphy, Lu Zheng since the crossing, regardless of cold and summer, has never slack.

"Childe, you are now the head of the government test! The second master has asked you to reward you with 3,000 taels of silver, and Uncle Qi has already brought the silver back! Si Qi stood opposite Lu Zheng, looked down at him, and said in a low voice.

"Hmm!" Lu Zheng hummed softly, and there was no pause in his hand.

"Childe, grandma has brought you rose cakes from the mountains, they are your favorite flavors. I quietly asked, and the eldest grandmother was very happy to know about your two top crimes! Hua Mei said again.

Lu Zheng didn't speak this time, his expression was still serious, and he wrote seriously.

"Childe, today Gongzi Chen Gui and Gongzi Qin Yue invite you to the banquet again! The location is in the Listening Rain Pavilion Painting Boat, and it is said that Miss Qilan is personally accompanied! Xiaozhu said again.

"I politely refused for me, just saying that I occasionally felt cold and unwell, so I won't go!" Lu Zheng said lightly, he said this, but his mind did not relax at all, and he still focused on his pen, meticulous.

Xiaozhu and the other three girls looked at each other, they were quite disappointed, and finally retreated.

The three girls went from the courtyard to the main hall, Ying'er was reading, and said, "Sister Ying'er, what do you say is going on with Childe?" has already won the head of the case twice, I don't see him have the slightest relaxation, but he is working harder and harder, this day is closed all night, he doesn't go to the banquet outside, and he doesn't accept others who have voted for him.

We all asked, and the boy was sure to show off his talent in the test, and there was no problem at all! It's already high school, why are you still so unkind, Childe won't be a nerd in reading, right? ”

Ying'er put down the book in her hand, glanced at the three girls in front of her, and said: "You three hooves, you only know how to be in the limelight for a day, in the past few days, I think you are addicted to the wild, right?" Do you still want your son to be like you, and go outside every day? ”

When Ying'er said this, Xiaozhu and the other three all laughed, and Si Qi said: "Sister Ying'er, you can't blame us, we were originally servants and nobles when we were slaves, and our sons are out, and the status of us as slaves will naturally rise, that's how it is!" ”

Si Qi smiled and spoke, and both Huamei and Xiaozhu echoed beside them, they have been in Zhangjiake for the past few days, and others look up to them wherever they go.

The little girls are doing everything possible to please them, and they are talking to them in different ways, which girl in the Zhang family does not envy them?

Brother Lu Zhengzheng, who they are serving, can now be the first place in the county test and the government test, the first in Yangzhou, this is a great name, the people who came to post in the Zhang family these days have to step on the threshold of the door, they all want to see Brother Zheng!

Among these people, many of them are rare Yangzhou talents, and some of them are even guests who can't be invited by the Zhang family, and now they have come to post one after another, and Lu Zheng's reputation can be seen.

Si Qi and a few other girls were naturally very happy, but they also wondered, in their eyes, Lu Zheng was so powerful, why did he still work as hard as before?

Even harder than before, I used to go out every once in a while, but now I don't go out at all, and I start writing and reading every day from the morning, and I still read by candle late at night.

Lu Zheng's fame is getting bigger and bigger, but he is deaf to all this, those talented people all begged to come to the door to meet Lu Zheng, Lu Zheng all shirked it, Si Qi and a few girls really don't understand, why did the son do this?

"Okay, you three girls don't make trouble anymore, the son is dedicated to studying, not tempted by fame and fortune, this is a very high realm, where is like ordinary people, a little bit of achievement will his tail, proud?

Is a talent like Childe a person who really makes great things? Let me tell you, in the eyes of the child, a small talent is nothing at all, his goal is to go to the capital to participate in the examination and the palace examination, and worship the Son of Heaven in the Jinluan Palace! You know what? Shadow said.

After all, Ying'er has read books, and her knowledge is not comparable to Si Qi and a few other little girls, and when she said this, Si Qi and the others opened their mouths wide when they heard it.

In their small world, the Zhang family's family advocates that Chengxi is a big man, and Liang Quanyi, the prefect of Yangzhou, is a first-class official, and in the world outside Yangzhou, they don't dare to imagine it at all.

And outside Yangzhou, it is said that there is also Zhili Province, there is also the Dakang Dynasty above the province, the Dakang Dynasty is more than 1,000 miles away, the place where the emperor lives is said to be larger than Yangzhou City, there are 3,000 beauties in the palace, all of them serve the emperor alone.

They know that these are all knowledge gained on the stage or by listening to storytellers, and now they hear that Lu Zheng will worship the Son of Heaven in the Jinluan Palace in the future, and they all feel that their hearts are surging, and Lu Zheng's image in their hearts has risen again.

"Tsk, tsk, if there is a day, I don't know if we can see it, will Childe take us to see the world?" Si Qi Dao.

"You think beautifully, once the son leaves Yangzhou, our sisters should be dispersed! After all, we are the girls of the Zhang family, and the identity of the son is delicate, where can he take us away? "Talk to Mei.

Xiaozhu frowned slightly, and said, "You're not right, you're not right, it's okay for a few of us girls, but what about Sister Ying'er?" Could it be that Sister Ying'er can't follow her son? She's the son's personal girl! ”

As soon as Xiaozhu said this, both Mei and Si Qi were speechless, and the three of them turned their eyes to Ying'er almost at the same time. Shadow's hand trembled slightly, her heart "thumped", her cheeks were dyed red, and she looked embarrassed.

Countless thoughts instantly flooded her mind, and she was a little panicked in her heart, she had also thought about this question, but she had never had an answer.

Shadow's temperament should be strong, high, the maid's life, and the lady's temper. She also gradually matured and grew up after following Lu Zheng, and from Lu Zheng's experience, she deeply felt the three, six, nine and so on.

Her shadow is a girl, in the past, the old lady in Zhangjiaheng spoiled her, and later after the second grandmother gave her to Lu Zheng, the shadow experienced a lot of cold eyes during that time!

Now Ying'er is Lu Zheng's girl, if Lu Zheng really leaves Yangzhou, she really doesn't know where she should go.

"Don't talk nonsense, how can you talk nonsense about Childe's affairs? Even if Childe wants to leave, it will have to be after he wins the show, and it's still early! Shadow said.

She didn't want to talk to the three little girls anymore, so she changed the conversation and said: "Okay, you girls know all about playing, and you don't look at the time, why don't you go and prepare a meal?" Is Childe hungry at noon? ”

The shadow sent the three girls, and Lu Zheng was still working hard to write big characters in the yard, generally speaking, Lu Zheng would write until noon, and then delve into the current text in the afternoon, and would write at least three current texts.

The evening time is the time to read, Lu Zheng is reading in the order of the subset of scriptures and history, the classics have been completely read, and now he is reading Zhuzi, and after the palace test, he has asked the shopkeeper Gu to send the book three times.

sighed softly, in Ying'er's heart, she also had the same thoughts as Si Qi and them, seeing Lu Zheng working so hard, she also had opinions in her heart.

In the past, Lu Zheng worked hard for the boy's test, but now the boy's test has been confirmed, why is he still working so hard?

Yangzhou is such a big place, Lu Zheng should take advantage of the current limelight to go out to meet more friends, one is to make a name, but to consolidate his status as a talented man in Yangzhou.

The so-called one piece and one relaxation, the way of civil and martial arts, Lu Zheng always tightens the strings, why is this so painful?

She slowly paced into the yard, watched Lu Zheng write seriously, Lu Zheng finished writing in one big character, she hurriedly handed Lu Zheng a towel and said, "Childe, see you are covered in sweat, wipe it!" ”

Lu Zheng took the sweat towel and wiped the sweat off his face, and Ying'er took this opportunity to say: "Childe, there have been rumors outside recently that Childe has won the first place in the government examination, but there is no hope for the hospital examination!" Does Childe know why? ”

Lu Zheng smiled lightly and said, "Ying'er, are you also gullible in those nonsense?" The world likes to spread rumors, or spread falsehoods, and they can't be gullible! ”

Ying'er said: "It's not a rumor, it's Chen Guigongzi, he said that Gongzi offended the young lady of the Duanmu family and made Master Su unhappy, you must know that Miss Duanmu's first beauty in Yangzhou was given by Master Su."

You humiliated Miss Duanmu like that, where is Lord Su's face? He is now the chief examiner, and I am afraid that he will have an opinion of you! ”

Lu Zheng was stunned, laughed, and said, "I also said that it is not a rumor, I read it and it is all a rumor!" What is the status of Master Su, and how many beauties has he seen?

Duanmu's family is a merchant family, even if Master Su praises Duanmu's grace, I'm afraid it's just the next sentence, and he's afraid he forgot it!

However, some good people said that Duanmu Wanrong was the first beauty, and even brought this matter to the hospital test, which really made people laugh and lose their big teeth! ”

As Lu Zheng spoke, he put down the pen and said, "Okay, today's homework for big characters is over, Ying'er, put away all the pen and ink, and I'll work hard in the study in the afternoon." ”

"Childe, it's not okay today, Qin Yue's invitation has been handed over several times, you can't refuse people every time, right?"

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Shadow, what do you know?" This opening can't be opened, today it is in the way of Qin Yue's face to open the opening, and tomorrow there will be all kinds of people handing over the post.

Once that's the case, I have to go to the banquet every day, think about it, I do so much homework every day, how can I have so many banquets? Therefore, the smartest way is to call the sick at home and not see anyone, so that you can be most happy and leisurely. ”
