But after Magistrate Ma preached with foggy preaching, Xu Yan took the initiative to leave.

When he left the government office, his back collar was already wet.

It is too difficult to deal with people in the officialdom. It would be fine if you are familiar with each other. There is something in the words like Magistrate Ma, and it is really not enough to understand the words that are hidden in the words.

However, Chen Maoli's affairs should have been settled, and Magistrate Ma seemed to have no intention of continuing to get entangled in this matter.

After Xu Yan returned to Tailai Inn, he went straight to the stairs and headed towards his room.

When he heard that Xu Yan was back, Xiao Shutong Shuangxi and Chen Maoli both came out.

"As brother Shi, the people in the government are not making things difficult for you, right?"

Xu Yan was "queried away for questioning" because of his affairs, so Chen Maoli was naturally very sad.

"Brother Lu Qing, am I back now?"

Xu Yan smiled and said, "Master Fu Zun just asked me some questions and asked me back, and did not make things difficult for me."

"That's good, that's good."

Chen Maoli was overjoyed when he heard this: "Since that's the case, you and my brother might as well drink together."

Shuangxi also said on the side: "We are useless in the food prepared in the store, just waiting for the young master to come back."

Xu Yan happened to be a little hungry, so he nodded and said, "I'm just thinking about it."

Shuangxi took the food and placed it on the table in turn.

Red steak, fried waist, steamed ginger, gizzard, osmanthus ginger, ginger, osmanthus silverfish, dried stewed chicken, fried gluten, roasted bones, spread eggs, yam stewed red meat balls, white roasted bamboo shoots, garlic lychee meat, roast duck, yellow sprouted leek meat, donkey meat, fried winter bamboo shoots, fried fresh fish, fried quail...

Looking around, there are all kinds of delicacies in the mountains and seas.

Now let alone Chen Maoli, even Xu Yan, Shuangxi was stunned.

The waiter who killed that day brought a banquet, right? They were only three of them, and there were so many foods there.

This table of dishes costs at least two or three taels of silver. Although Xu Yan is not short of money, it is not such a bad practice.

"This killer must have seen his brother be generous and wants to spend all the money he gave him as soon as possible, and then he will care about his brother's request!"

Chen Maoli held a dissatisfaction for Xu Yan.

Xu Yan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I blame me for believing him too much. Forget it this time, I will ask Shuangxi to go out and buy it next time."

Now that things have come to this point, there is no need to be angry with yourself.

Besides, Xu Yan was already a little hungry, so he and Chen Maoli feasted in joy.

The delicacies and sea flavors are paired with Jinhua Yellow Wine, which is indeed a unique taste.

Half an hour later, all three of them were full of wine and food, with more than half of the dishes on the table.

"I'm not hiding it from my good brother, this is the most luxurious meal I have ever had in my life."

Chen Maoli said while patting his stomach.

Xu Yan fucked her and said embarrassedly: "Brother Lu Qing laughed."

It turns out that sometimes too many choices are not a good thing, because you always want to try each one...

After a while, Chen Maoli stood up and said goodbye.

Xu Yan sent him out of the house with his front legs and lay down on the bed.

"Young Master, wipe your face."

Shuangxi twisted the wet handkerchief to Xu Yan.

Xu Yan wiped his hand and shook his head and said, "Let me take a break first."

Shuang was upset and took a quilt to make a floor.

After calming down alone, Xu Yan found it very strange when recalling the conversation between the government office and Magistrate Ma today.

First of all, Prefect Ma asked Xu Yan to go to the government office for questioning the matter of "protecting Chen Maoli". But in fact, except for a few symbolic questions, Prefect Ma did not pay much attention to this matter.

On the contrary, the prefect later introduced the title of "When the Wu is stopped, who is the house?" and ordered Xu Yan to write a lyrics. After Xu Yan gave up the lyrics, he induced Xu Yan to talk about being an official and serving the country. It also led to "The virtuous and virtuous are easy to behave; serving parents can exert their strength; serving the king can achieve their own life. If you make friends, you will have faith in your words. Even if you say you have not learned, I will definitely call it learning."

Now that I think the connection between the two is extremely barely, it seems like a tough one.

Logically speaking, at the level of the prefect, you would not do such a thing. Could it be that the prefect has other words?

Xu Yan thought of the last sentence of Magistrate Ma, "I will click here, please think about it carefully." He felt that this matter was not simple.

Xu Yan closed his eyes and began to recall every detail carefully. "Whose house is there to look at the dark and stop?" comes from the Book of Songs and belongs to the Five Classics. "The virtuous and virtuous are easy to behave; serving parents can exhaust their strength; serving kings can lead to their own body. If you make friends, you have faith in your words. Even if you say you have not learned, I will call you learning." comes from the Analects of Confucius and belongs to the Four Books.

Of course, this may be a coincidence, but there is another possibility, that is, the Four Books and Five Classics have been planned in advance, which led Xu Yan to follow up step by step.

At this point, Xu Yan had a bold idea in his mind...

Is this considered the question of Magistrate Ma hinting to him about the examination questions of the mansion?

Of course, Magistrate Ma talks about this at most. As for what level Xu Yan can understand, it is Xu Yan's own business.

However, Xu Yan still felt that it would rather trust that there is than that there is nothing.

He suddenly stood up and began to analyze the angles that can be given in these two sentences "The Book of Songs" and "The Analects of Confucius". I don't want to know, but I was shocked when I thought about it. These two sentences are really suitable for topics.

But there is one problem he cannot understand. Even if Magistrate Ma gave him the title of the Four Books, how did he know that Xu Yan's sutra was from the Book of Songs?

After all, if you choose one of the Five Classics and Five, Xu Yan did not tell Ma that the sutra he had managed was the Book of Songs.

Could it be that County Magistrate Zhao mentioned it to Magistrate Ma?

The more Xu Yan thought about it, the more he felt uneasy. The test was about to be tested, and he couldn't see anything else. Why not practice these two questions as test questions? If it was really the test questions of the test questions of the test, Xu Yan would naturally make a fortune, and even if it was not Xu Yan, it would not be a loss to practice.

"Shuangxi, spread paper and grind ink!"

Shuangxi was laying a quilt, and saw that his young master was going to write an article so late and said distressedly: "Young master, can't you rest for a while?"

"Hurry, Master, I'm not tired now!"

Shuangxi had no choice but to pack up the table and lay the paper for Xu Yan, and stood aside to grind the ink.

Xu Yan closed his eyes and meditated quietly.

Magistrate Ma was a fourth-rank official of the court. It was impossible for Xu Yan, a child, to risk the end of his career and directly tell him the topic. At most, he could use this way of chatting and hinting. In this way, even if Xu Yan guessed anything, he would "guessed" himself.

The sudden show of Xu Yan by Ma's prefecture was definitely related to Xian Xiangrui, but it was definitely not just because of this. The relationship between governor Zhu Wan and Xu Yan is both a teacher and a friend is also a major reason why Ma's prefecture showed good news.

By connecting these causes and consequences, you will find that everything can be explained.

The Ming Dynasty's officialdom has always been linked. Since the governor is optimistic about Xu Yan, what reason does Ma Ma have to do not follow the situation?

Of course, these are just Xu Yan's guesses.
