March 3rd is the Shangsi Festival, the spring breeze brings warmth and the sun shines brightly.

The boys and girls from the three heads of the Qin family traveled together in carriages. Qin Jian and Qin Su escorted them all the way on horseback, with relaxed and comfortable smiles on their faces. This spring outing was the relaxing moment they had been looking forward to for a long time.

Although it's only one day, it's not like you could play for several days in the past, but it's always good to relax.

Qin Hanzhen and Qin Jinchun were sitting in the same carriage. Since Pei Yin insisted on accompanying him, Qin Jinhua could only reserve her seat in his own carriage, and Qin Jinchun took the opportunity to sit with Qin Hanzhen. As for Qin Jinyi, she

They didn't want to ride in the same car as their sisters. The two little girls, Qin Jinrong and Qin Hanzhu, sat in the same car, and along the way, they also picked up the former's nanny.

Qin Hanzhen's carriage was escorted by Feng'er and Li Zi inside and outside, and there were two guards sent by Ashou on both sides. He felt at ease, and he and Qin Jinchun just took the opportunity to talk about some secret things. However, it was a beautiful day today, and the two of them did not

He was in a mood to talk too much about conspiracies and conspiracies. Anyway, everything that should be arranged has been arranged. Qin Jinchun kept in mind that he would not be alone or with strangers today. His heart was relatively stable, and he soon met Qin Hanzhen.

We talked about a few interesting things, laughed and felt very good.

Qin Hanzhen noticed that Pei Yin not only followed him, but also brought his brother Pei Cheng and his cousin Pei Er Shao. In addition, there were seven or eight followers. The ostentation was even bigger than his own home.

What was she trying to do? She reminded Qin Jinchun in a low voice: "I always feel that Pei Yin has bad intentions. You must be careful."

Qin Jinchun nodded: "Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I just need to stick close to the second sister and the third sister, and spend more time with Cousin Lu and Sister Cai. Pei Yin doesn't have any friendship with me, does she want to find someone?

Do I have to agree to any request I make?"

Qin Han really laughed when she heard this. In fact, she also wanted to know what the Pei Yin brothers and sisters wanted to do.

The carriage team left the city and arrived at the Zhuangzi that had been prepared in advance. The Cai family had already arrived first and sent someone to say hello. The Qin family and the Pei family got off the car and divided their courtyards to settle down. Pei

Yin took the girl to freshen up, but the Pei brothers turned to the Qin Jian brothers and wanted to have tea and chat with them.

After traveling for such a long time, everyone was quite tired. Qin Jian and Qin Su both came here on horseback. They had not exercised much in recent months, and their thighs were badly worn. They were also afraid of losing their grace in front of others, so they kept silent.

Without saying a word, I just want to take advantage of the break to take a good breath and relax. If it is serious, I will need some medicine or something. Who can bear to pay attention to the Pei brothers at this time? They are not close friends in the first place, let alone the Pei brothers.

Taking a carriage all the way was certainly easier than them. Both Qin and Jian couldn't help but feel a little impatient.

Pei Cheng probably sensed their impatience. After chatting for a while, he claimed that he wanted to see his sister, got up and left. The second young master Pei didn't wink so much, and continued to pester the two Pei brothers. Of course, he pestered

The main one is Qin Jian. Everyone knows that Qin Jian is the eldest grandson of the Marquis of Chengen and has just become a tribute scholar. He has a bright future and it will be good for him to be friends with him. The second young master Pei has kept in mind the instructions of his grandmother, father and uncle.

, even if he knew in his heart that the other party might be a little impatient, he still refused to leave.

He had been accustomed to this kind of thing since he was a child. The celebrities and scholars his grandfather and his uncles made friends with were impatient with him as a child, but he sincerely asked them for advice and said more words of admiration. Gradually, they

He will be patient and feel that although he is young, he is eager to learn and is willing to give him guidance. The second young master Pei believes that the eldest young master of the Qin family will not be more difficult to deal with than those celebrities and elegant people.

Qin Su, who was sitting aside and almost ignored, had a gloomy face that was about to drip. His riding skills were much worse than Qin Jian's. He wanted to show up with Qin Jian today, so he could barely support himself in riding all the way here.

The skin on the thigh must have been broken now, and there may be blood. I was anxious to find a place to check the injury and give some medicine, but unexpectedly, the second young master of the Pei family kept nagging me. My brother-in-law didn't say anything, and he continued

He couldn't leave without authorization, and he felt very angry. No matter how well-behaved Qin Su was, not everyone could bully him. The Pei family had been trying to flatter his aunt all year round, so who was the second son of the Pei family?

Cong? How dare you ignore him?! So what if he is the son of the Duke of Guo? Their old Duke is about to die!

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Tang Han from the Tang family to arrive. Qin Jian had company, so she sent her concubine to rest. Qin Su just breathed a sigh of relief and left quickly.

Tang Han actually arrived at the nearby Zhuangzi a few days in advance. The Tang family also has its own property in this area, but it is a very small Zhuangzi with not much production and good scenery. It just wants to be quiet. Tang Han came here to prepare for the exam.

It was quiet here, just to avoid all kinds of entertainment in the city. When he came, the topic of conversation with Qin Jian turned to imperial examination articles. Although the second young master Pei was also interested in taking the exam, he was far from their level and could only listen.

He half understood, but he was afraid that asking would reveal his ignorance, so he didn't dare to say anything. He just smiled and listened to the Book of Heaven. But the young man's temperament only lasted a quarter of an hour, and he couldn't hold on any longer.

He stammered an excuse and said goodbye.

After he left, Qin Jian breathed a sigh of relief and complained to Tang Han: "It's really uncomfortable to talk so politely. If he doesn't leave, I don't know if I can survive."

Tang Han couldn't stop laughing. After he finished laughing, he said: "If you don't like it, just find a reason to get rid of the person. Why bother to hold on here? I still want to ask you, didn't I say that I made an appointment with the Cai family today?

Why did you call the Pei family?"

Qin Jian sighed: "It's hard to explain in words. Do you think I'm happy with it?" He didn't want to say that this was his mother's arrangement, so he changed the subject, "What do you want to discuss with me?"

Tang Han said: "I guess after the list came out, you and I should have had the same idea, right?"

Qin Jian was silent for a moment and smiled bitterly: "The ranking is too bad... What if I fall into the top three after the palace examination? When I think that I will be laughed at by others for being a fellow Jinshi, I don't want to take part in the palace examination. Three years later

Furthermore, I am confident that I can do better in the exam. When the time comes, wouldn’t it be much more honorable to be directly awarded the second-class Jinshi?"

Tang Han sighed: "You are unlucky this year. The location of the room you were assigned is not good, and your grades are affected a bit, so your ranking will fall to more than 200. In fact, you may not have a chance to compete in the palace examination. If you were to be in the imperial examination today.

If the subject gives up, what kind of test questions will be asked in the next subject, what kind of examiner will you encounter, your family, your body, and various accidents may happen. Are you sure you want to take this risk?"

Qin Jian sighed: "I hesitated just because I knew it was risky. My family... now seems to believe that I can become an official soon. They have such high expectations for me, and I can't even tell them."

If I want to give up the exam, I won't even dare to mention it in front of my third uncle."

Tang Han was silent for a while: "I have already discussed it with my father and mother. My father thinks that I have ambition, but I gave up too early. If you have confidence in your knowledge, you may not be able to compete in the imperial examination if you have confidence in your knowledge."

Erjia. My mother is very helpful. She said that even if I wait another three years to take the exam again, I won’t have to worry about my future. She just told me to do whatever I want.”

But...how could he make up his mind?

Tang Han is now preparing for the exam in the village. On the one hand, he has not yet made the decision to give up the palace exam. On the other hand, he is also preparing for the eventuality. If he does not give up the palace exam, he will really have to work hard again. Time.

It is indeed very short, but in a short period of time, what he has done may not be in vain.

Qin Jian saw that his friend and future brother-in-law was also in the same trouble, and he felt even more depressed. Tang Han had a better academic foundation than him, and his ranking was higher than him, but he was still so entangled, and he had more than 200 people... Well, in fact, he

Although he got a bad number in the examination, he silently asked his third uncle Qin Bai to read his essay after the examination. His third uncle also said that it was not much different from his usual level. In other words, although he was not able to do well due to the environment of the examination room,

He was poor and did not perform exceptionally, but he did not fail either. He knew that he was not a person who could make significant progress in academic studies in a short period of time. Is he really sure that he would not fall into the top three in the imperial examination?

Although Qin Jian knew his origin, even if he became a second-class Jinshi, it would be difficult for him to reach a high-ranking official position in the future. But after all, he had studied for so many years and wanted to be famous. He might

He can only enjoy this kind of glory once in his life. After he becomes an official, he will be like his father and uncles, disappearing from everyone. If he only gets into the top three, wouldn't he not be able to enjoy this glory?

The two brothers and sisters looked at each other and sighed in unison. They were really troubled.

Naturally, Qin Hanzhen and his sisters could not understand this kind of trouble. They quickly washed themselves up in their respective rooms, rested, drank tea, and ate some snacks. Those who suffered from motion sickness felt better, so they asked

The girls went to inquire about the situation of the Cai family. It happened that the girls and grandmothers of the Cai family had almost rested, and invited them to play and chat in the grass pavilion by the nearby stream. The sisters happily went there.

As soon as they got on the carriage, Pei Yin followed her, and her two brothers followed closely behind. Qin Jinchun couldn't help but rolled his eyes. Qin Jinhua looked embarrassed.

Lu Yueniang and Cai Yuanzhen did not invite Pei Yin. However, it was no secret that the relationship between Pei Yin and the Cai family had deteriorated. The two women had made an appointment to meet and planned to chat privately. It was too much for Pei Yin to follow him shamelessly.

She even brought her brother with her and brought her to the female relatives. Does she know etiquette?

Qin Hanzhen said calmly to Pei Yin, who put on a smile and wanted to get on the carriage: "My cousin invited us sisters to meet over, and she didn't mean to invite outsiders. Miss Pei, why don't you take a good rest in Zhuangzi first?"

My brother has already ordered someone to prepare a luncheon, please let me enjoy it. How can we sisters take away my brother's guests?"

The smile on Pei Yin's face froze, and she felt extremely embarrassed. When had she lowered her head in front of Qin Hanzhen?! Just as she was about to speak, Qin Jinyi interrupted: "Miss Pei was originally invited by the second sister.

Just for fun, now that we are going out to have fun, how can we leave her alone? Just ask her to come with us. Anyway, I am not familiar with the girls in the Cai family, and Miss Pei just happens to be my companion. With Pei

Our two young masters are escorting us, so we can feel more at ease."

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned and turned to look at her.
