The next day, the Song family got up half an hour later than usual.

Looking at the redness on the east side, Grandma Song quickly went to the kitchen while knocking her head. She had never gotten up so late. She didn't know what happened last night, she slept so hard.

"grandmother."

Song Wanyue, Gu Yi and Song Si walked into the yard with the breakfast they bought. They happened to see Grandma Song's hurrying figure, and Song Wanyue called her.

Grandma Song turned around and saw the few people carrying breakfast. She immediately turned around, "When did you get up? Why didn't I even hear any movement?"

"Grandma should be too tired to go on a rush and she is sleeping heavily." Song Si said.

As he said that, he walked to Song Wanyue and wanted to take the breakfast in her hand, "Is it hot? Give it to grandma, don't burn it."

Song Wanyue gave her right hand to her grandmother and took her arm, "I have nothing to do today, let's go buy the gift for engagement."

Grandma Song had such a plan that day she came. He nodded after hearing this, "What do you think about?"

In the past two days, Song Wanyue and Gu Yi took Xu out, under the guise of transferring the engagement ceremony.

"It feels almost the same, let's have a good look today."

After breakfast, the family kept Song Shu at home, and the rest took a carriage to go around.

The Nancheng is very prosperous, with many shops of various types. A few people traveled around for a day and picked up a few that they could put.

The second day, the palace examination.

Song Si put on the scarlet robe made by Xu, took the things to be used for the palace examination, and Song Wanyue and Gu Yi sent him to the palace gate.

Some students had already come over and lined up, and there was no one talking. There was a silence in front of the huge palace gate.

All the carriages were parked far away from the palace gate. After getting off the carriage, the students went to queue up alone, not allowing their families to walk with them.

"Brother, come on!"

Song Wanyue made a cheerful gesture.

Song Si smiled and touched her head, "You go back first, come here again in Wei Shimo."

The palace examination is one day, held in the square in front of the Golden Palace. There is a short rest at noon, but you are not allowed to leave your exam seat and sit in place to eat the dry food you bring.

Song Wanyue nodded.

Song Si took his own things to queue up. Soon, the palace gate opened and the students entered in an orderly manner. After entering the door, they drew a number and then took the seats.

In the Golden Palace, the emperor and all civil and military officials were there, and even Mr. Xu was invited.

Thinking of his age, the emperor specially gave him a seat.

The civil and military officials looked out halfway.

"I wonder which Huiyuan is this year?"

The article from Song Sihui Examination was long ago published in the Ministry of Personnel, and everyone who heard it praised it was good.

The emperor also wanted to know and waved his hand. Eunuch Huang immediately stepped forward. After listening to the emperor's instructions, he walked out of the Golden Palace and came to the square. When the eunuch read the exam questions, the students unfolded the paper and started to write articles. Eunuch Huang walked over one by one, and when he walked to Song Si, he saw his name, turned around and entered the hall to report.

The emperor's eyes fell far away on Song Si.

Although he couldn't see his face clearly, he saw that he was sitting upright and whispering gracefully and nodded with satisfaction.

Mr. Xu saw the emperor's every move, exchanged a glance with Dingguo Bus, and also looked at Song Si at the same time.

His scarlet robe made him very conspicuous among many students.

The more Duke Ding looked, the more satisfied he became, but Mr. Xu was a little worried. Judging from the emperor's attitude just now, it was not just as simple as cherishing talent. He also thought of what Song Wanyue had said to him-

He clenched his fists and coughed twice, "Cough cough..."

The emperor's eyes fell on Song Si were retracted, "Is the old man uncomfortable?"

The old man stood up and bowed, "Forgive me, my son, somehow my throat was a little dry."

"Help the old man go to the side hall to have tea."

"Thank you for your compassion."

Eunuch Huang came up in person and helped him to the side hall - the place where all the officials were waiting for court on weekdays, and then poured him a cup of tea and ordered the eunuchs on the side to serve him. Then he returned to the Golden Palace.

After a while, Duke Ding also came and retreated the little eunuch who was serving him.

The old man lowered his voice, "Can Duke Ding do me a favor?"

"Sir, please tell me."

The old man told him about Zhang Huai's impersonation, "To be honest, this is what my great-granddaughter told me, but I have never seen it before, and I don't know which student it was. Can Duke Ding help me?"

As soon as he said, Duke Ding heard that what he was talking about was Zhang Huai. Even if the old man didn't say it, he wanted to pull people out today.

But except for those eunuchs, it is difficult for anyone to get close to these students. Duke Ding Guo was about to call the eunuch to come in, but the door of the side hall was pushed open again. Duke Qi walked in slowly and bowed to say hello to the old man, "Mr. Xu."

The old man wanted to stand up, and Duke Qi hurriedly said, "You can just sit down."

Mr. Xu didn't be polite to him, "Dude is this..."

"Oh, maybe it's because I got up early and had too salty food. Come and have a cup of tea."

From beginning to end, he did not look at Duke Ding. Duke Ding ignored him, picked up the teacup directly and drank the tea slowly.

The Duke of Qi also sat down on the side, and the eunuch immediately served tea, and he held it in his hand and drank it slowly.

A cup of tea seemed to be endless, and half of it was left after a quarter of an hour. The old man didn't know the inside story, but Duke Ding knew that Duke Qi was targeting him, and his purpose was to prevent him from pulling people out.

The old man knew that the two of them had never dealt with each other and didn't say anything. The side hall fell into a strange silence. It was not until the Minister of Revenue came in that this strangeness was broken.

"Old sir."

The Minister of Revenue gave a great gift. No matter what, Wen Zhong was taught by the old man for many years. In addition, Huo is now the wife of the eldest man. According to his seniority, he is a generation shorter.

In fact, in addition to Wen Zhong's ability to betroth his daughter, he was also because of the relationship between Wen Zhong and the Xu family. Otherwise, even if he was the Minister of Revenue, his two grandsons would not have been able to join the Imperial College so easily.

When the old man saw him, he thought of Wen Zhong and nodded faintly.

The Minister of Revenue noticed his coldness and was confused, but he didn't ask in front of Duke Ding and Duke Qi, and sat next to the old man's head.

Until noon, Duke Ding did not find the opportunity to send someone to see it.

After having a full lunch, he went to the palace early. He was from the Ministry of Personnel and was indebted to care about this palace examination. However, he did not expect that after entering the palace gate, the Duke of Qi was already there. He looked at him in and looked at him slantedly.

The two of them are both Dukes, and their daughters are both in the palace, and their identities are equal. Duke Ding naturally cannot attack. Until the eunuch called for a student to hand in the paper, he did not come up with a solution.
