The Bookish Scholar of the Red Mansion

Chapter 242: Shock passed by, I couldn’t bear it (more updates!!!)

In the second exam, the main tests were on the theory, the imperial edict, and the five judgments. What is regrettable is that the arithmetic questions that appeared in the provincial examination did not appear in this one.

Probably the imperial court felt that those who could pass the Jinshi examination did not need to worry about arithmetic and other issues. For a few taels of silver, the streets are filled with competent bookkeepers.

Arithmetic was Chen Heng's biggest draw, but the court didn't include it in the question, so there was nothing he could do. The second exam was the easiest of the three exams.

What is slightly more difficult is the imperial examination form. The imperial examination form is more troublesome than the provincial examination. It will directly designate the famous ministers of certain dynasties. Please write an official document based on this. For example, the last exam question was Imulating the Tang Dynasty with Zhang Jiuling as Zhongshu Linggao.

The civil servant to be written about this time is also a household name, it is Fan Zhongyan of the Song Dynasty. Writing this kind of official document is the Gospel of the Scholars based on the Spring and Autumn Annals. Scholars who dare to make history will never read only the books of one generation. You may have a specialization, but you must also have overall and systematic reading.

The imperial edict must be neat and elegant, and attention must be paid to avoiding taboos. Familiar things to the world, such as Chen written smaller than Jun, as well as name taboos, etc., mostly appear here.

After understanding this, how good an article you can write depends entirely on Juzi's accumulation in recent years. However, the proportion of this examination room is not large. When the examiners mark the papers, they pay more attention to whether the candidates have made mistakes.

Considering that I have been experiencing things in the past two years, I am no better than those candidates who are devoted to studying vocabulary. Chen Heng wisely chose to retain his remaining strength and prepare in advance for the third game.

There's nothing you can do about it. As a human being, you can't be greedy. Wanting both is too much. But retain your strength and don’t just write casually. After ensuring that the words and sentences are complete and fair, the wording should be as elegant and accurate as possible.

Some candidates are happy when writing an article and like to use some luxurious and fragrant words. When the examiner read it, he certainly felt that his lips and teeth were fragrant. But without the true appearance of the characters, the evaluation will inevitably be lower.

After writing the imperial edict, the rest is the judgment. These five questions are not difficult, and they all need to be written with a fair and impartial mind. After the second exam ended like this, Chen Heng found that he still had half a day to spare.

I thought that the papers would not be handed in until tomorrow morning, and the questions for the third session would not be distributed until the morning after tomorrow. With this calculation, it seems that I can sleep peacefully for two full nights. Chen Heng, who was overjoyed, sat quietly in the dormitory and looked at the candidates around him leisurely.

It is now the fifth day of the test, and most people, including Chen Heng, are a little tired. This is still in good condition. On the rainy night last night, one candidate was carried away on a stretcher by the officers and soldiers, and he immediately announced that he would give up the exam.

March is cold in spring, not to mention rainy at night. It is normal for scholars to be weak and unable to bear it. Chen Heng took a look at the people who were busy writing and began to close his eyes to rest. There is still some distance before dinner time, so we should use all useful time to recharge our batteries.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already sunset. From time to time, the aroma of rice and meat wafts out from the aisle in front of the dormitory. When Chen Heng heard this, he was also hungry. He immediately borrowed some charcoal that could make a fire from the officers and soldiers, set up a small pot himself, and prepared water to cook noodles.

The officers and soldiers did not provide much charcoal, just enough for the candidates to barely cook dinner. And after the meal time, candidates’ request to borrow again will not be accepted. When the noodles were cooked, Chen Heng carefully removed the examination paper. He directly held the pot, placed it on the table and started to enjoy it.

At this time, the sunset shifted, just enough to shine in front of his desk, and also illuminated the inside of the dormitory red. The bright aisle is still half obscured by silhouettes. Black and red are mixed together, just like seeing green mountains and green water, how wonderful it is. Chen Heng found this situation interesting. If you think about it carefully, this experience of taking the exam should be enough to chat with your children and grandchildren.

After dinner, Chen Heng wrapped himself in a quilt, leaned against the wall and fell asleep. Except for handing in the paper the next day, Chen Heng basically stayed in this state. I won't let myself think about the previous questions and hand them in. Worrying about them will be of no use.

So on the sixth day of the exam, the third exam, which was the policy question, was finally released. Although there are only five questions, the content of the test is very complex. Including but not limited to ancient and modern current affairs, astronomy and geography, mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, etc. may all appear.

Although his energy and energy were not in the same state as when he first entered the examination room, he had recovered somewhat. When Chen Heng turned around, he saw all the candidates around him looking sick and lost their minds, and his thoughts became even more determined. I am a little more confident about winning this exam.

Focusing his attention again, Chen Heng lowered his head and began to study the topic. The first question is old news from last year, talking about the tsunami that occurred from Songjiang Prefecture to Suzhou Prefecture in August last year. (Note 1)

If I remember correctly, in the original book, Jia Zheng followed the rules and resigned from the local school, and then went to provide disaster relief according to the order. For this reason, Jia Zheng delayed returning home until the end of last year.

After summarizing the information about the tsunami in his mind, Chen Heng looked at the questions and saw that they were about people's livelihood management, disaster relief measures, etc. Chen Heng had personal experience in doing this kind of thing in Yangzhou, and he was really good at answering it.

When it comes to the second question, the test is about the big route from Qingniwa to the capital and Yangzhou. This was a great achievement during Li Zhi's reign, leaving aside the side wars that occurred during the provincial examination. Chen Heng was not surprised by its appearance.

This question, um... this question... okay. No matter how the examiner wants to test this question, Chen Heng can answer it. Whether it is from the perspective of benefiting the country and the people, or the coordinated development of states and counties along the way, Chen Heng can explain everything.

To be honest, it is a bit of a violation to ask the person in charge to answer the questions.

Only after reaching the last three questions did Chen Heng's good luck come to an end. However, the types of questions asked do not deviate from the scope of practice. There is a test of the state government's views and opinions on local officials' governance. There are those who study the changes in mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, and explore topography and water conservancy.

The exam is never just about essays. It's just that the literary giants who have left their mark in history are so talented that people mistakenly think that they can get Jinshi if they can write poems and articles.

Questions like policy theory were the strategies that the imperial court used to test candidates. It is also through the process of raising children from various places to Beijing that we can make additional summaries and investigations of the world's situation.

It's not the test paper of Sandingjia, it's called a test paper. All examination papers will be collected in the Treasury of the Ministry of Rites after the examination. There will be special inspections and re-inspections afterwards. As the king of a country, he is most afraid of those below him, who will work together to deceive the superiors and deceive the subordinates.

More than 6,000 candidates, that is, more than 6,000 pairs of eyes, stared at the state officials for the emperor. This is also the reason why the policy topic is so important. It was another channel for the emperor, who rarely left the palace walls, to understand the world.

After answering the last question in this way, the nine-day and nine-night examination ended. When the examiner, sealing officer, and supervisor came up to collect the papers, they sealed and stamped them in front of the candidates, then transferred the papers into the box and sent them to the inner curtain. Candidates can finally let go. At this point, the rest is left to God's will.

When leaving the examination room, Chen Heng's demeanor was quite relaxed, in sharp contrast to the tired candidates around him. There were so many people around him who wanted to go out that Chen Heng didn't bother to find friends to join him. He walked directly out of the dragon gate and walked towards the agreed waiting place.

On the way, he bumped into Xinda who was coming to see someone. The latter took the luggage from his brother and said hurriedly: Second brother, you get on the carriage and rest for a while. We will wait until we receive Master Qian, Master Xue and Master Jiang. go home.

Okay. Chen Heng nodded and didn't want to say more. After getting on the carriage, I closed my eyes and meditated. After waiting for a long time, I heard the sound of Xue Biao and others getting on the carriage amidst the hustle and bustle of people.

Jiang Yuanbai just sat down and couldn't help waving his hands: Don't ask anything, don't say anything. I want to have a good time these days.

Seeing his exhausted look, Qian Dayou hurriedly expressed concern: Don't be in a hurry to play, let's take good care of ourselves at Chixing's house first.

It's too bitter, it's really too bitter. Jiang Yuanbai didn't seem to hear, he just sat there and muttered. The provincial examination takes three days, and you can go home and take a rest in the middle. Staying in the Gongyuan for nine days and nine nights like Huishan is really torture.

Xue Biao also had a sad look on his face, and he sighed: Last night, three of my exam houses were taken out.

When Chen Heng heard this, he could only shake his head and sigh. It's almost the last day, and at this moment, the success is on the verge of failure. He clapped his hands to draw everyone's attention, and then said: Don't think about this, go back and have a good sleep, it's better than anything else.

Everyone was silent and lost interest in talking.

Only Xinda was left outside, driving the carriage and calling people on the road to make it easier.

The carriages and horses are very slow and the time is long.

…………

…………

When he returned home that day, Chen Heng only hurriedly greeted his worried parents, then went to wash up and rest. When I got into bed, I forgot all about the spring palace and the gold medal. After sleeping until the next afternoon, Chen Heng opened his eyes and still felt that he had not slept enough.

He woke up from thirst and was about to get out of bed to find a cup of tea. Then he saw Qingwen, who had arrived at some unknown time, lying on the table and sleeping with her arms in her arms.

Why is this girl here? Chen Heng was stunned for a moment. Except for Xinda, his father and mother rarely came to his house.

Qingwen didn't sleep deeply. She was woken up by Jingjing and opened her eyes in confusion. With sleepy eyes, he saw Chen Heng wearing single clothes. The maid hurriedly stood up from the table, wiped the corners of her mouth with the back of her hand in a panic and said, Master, are you awake?

Well, I'm thirsty. Chen Heng nodded, took the teapot and poured it into the cup, and found that there were wisps of steam coming out. Kung Fu can be seen in the details. Qingwen didn't know when she would wake up, but the tea could be kept hot. Chen Heng couldn't help but turn his head, looked at the little maid in front of him, and said, Thank you for your hard work.

Qingwen didn't expect to hear this, so she hurriedly lowered her head and waved her hands and said, Young Master, it's not hard. The stewards were waiting here. Young Master Qian woke up outside and called me.

The steward in Qingwen's words was naturally Xinda. Chen Heng nodded and saw that the girl still had a tired look on her face. Thinking about the small number of people at home, there have been a lot of things going on recently. She and Xinda must be busy. He advised: I have nothing to do. You go back and have a good rest.

Although Qingwen doesn't talk much now, her temper is still as stubborn as before. Neither agreed nor shook his head in refusal. He just clasped his hands and stood beside Chen Heng. The spring breeze quietly blew in through the half-open window lattice on the wall. The girl is wearing a thin and elegant spring dress, which looks quite thin and weak.

Qingwen's stature is not tall, similar to Daiyu's. The two are indeed somewhat similar in appearance. They all have narrow shoulders, fair and slender necks, curved eyebrows, and beautiful eyes.

But compared to the radiant and elegant Daiyu. Today, Qingwen always has a hint of sadness that cannot be erased from her eyebrows. Because she was kicked out of Rongguo Mansion, her relationship with her brother and sister-in-law was very tense.

When she was sick before, her cousin-in-law often said bad things about her. While not asking a doctor to see her, she was also afraid of dying at home. She is even more worried that Qingwen will live or die in her own home.

Qingwen's willingness to join the Chen family this time was actually because there was no way out. There was no way she could go back to Rongguo Mansion, and her cousin and cousin-in-law disliked her again. A good person, if he encounters such a blow, half of his original energy will be wiped away.

Master, are you hungry? The little thought in her heart quietly made Qingwen even more cautious in the Chen family. If she was kicked out again this time, she might not even be able to go back to her cousin-in-law.

Chen Heng stretched himself. He was definitely hungry, but eating now would cause trouble in the kitchen. He was not far from the meal point. He rejected Qingwen's proposal and only changed his words: Are there any other dried fruits or something? Bring some and give it to me.

Yes. Qingwen finally got some errand and nodded excitedly. She was about to turn around and leave. After thinking about it, she stopped and said sideways, Master, do you not like the name Qingwen?

Chen Heng had already stood up and came to the desk. Hearing this, he subconsciously showed a look of astonishment and said curiously: No, what's wrong?

Then young master, why do you never call me by my name? Qingwen looked worried. She was afraid that Chen Heng would take Baoyu's festivities out on her. If the young master doesn't like it, just change it. It doesn't matter, slave.

Chen Heng shook his head and laughed. He waved his hands repeatedly and comforted with a smile: Don't worry, it won't happen. Just do your work with peace of mind.

Qingwen felt a little relieved and hurriedly went out to find something for her young master. After a while, Qingwen came back with cakes and dried fruits. As soon as the things were put down, Chen Heng drove her away and asked her to go back to the house and rest by herself.

After dinner, Chen Heng went out and sat at home with a few friends, holding a bottle of wine and admiring the moonlight. The painful examination was over, and everyone was in good spirits. They made an appointment to go for a walk on the street the next day.

…………

…………

The streets and alleys of the capital are full of places to relax and have fun. The examination results will be released at the earliest at the end of the month, and the palace examination will be released after April 9th. This period of time is the most relaxed and happy time for the children.

Every guild hall, tea house, and inn is indispensable for scholars who come and go in pairs. Either drinking and talking happily, or reciting poems and composing poems, it was so lively. Being in it will make people mistakenly think that they are coming to a festival similar to the Lantern Festival.

Wenhui poetry collections are emerging one after another, and everyone wants to use them to become famous. If he could be favored by the big boss in Beijing and be chosen as a staff member, even if he failed in the examination, it would not matter.

On such occasions, Jieyuan and Yayuan from each state capital are the most proud. Even Chen Heng, the predecessor of Yangzhou Jieyuan, received many invitations. He picked a few cultural gatherings that looked good and took Xue Biao and others to attend them.

Those who came with this literary meeting were naturally guessing about the candidate for Huiyuan. There is nothing wrong with Chen Heng here. His reputation is all in the officialdom, but he has no amazing reputation among officials. Officialdom is a circle, and those who don't enter it won't get much information inside.

What's more, participating in the competition are major imperial examination places such as Shandong, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Guangdong and Guangxi. Jieyuan in these places is recognized as Wenkui by everyone. The people in the market also felt that Hui Yuan could not escape from these eight candidates. More than 6,000 candidates gathered happily in the capital, eagerly looking forward to the examination results.

Chen Heng did not take advantage of this free time to visit Lin's house. He had a beautiful wish in his heart. I hope that when I visit again, it will be a new identity.

Whether it is Jinshi status or anything else...

…………

…………

Candidates can relax, but examiners have to work overtime. The results of this conference are of great concern to both the government and the public. This was due to the fact that the six top scholars served as examiners, and also because of the exaggerated number of people attending the examination.

Nearly 7,000 candidates were selected, and only 150 were hired. Isn't this just scouring the waves and looking for gold in the sand?

With such a large number of people, the admission quota remains the same as before. Some people have already proposed that Enko be added at an optional time after the joint trial is over. This is a matter for the future and can be discussed in the long run. Everyone is waiting for the results of this examination to be announced.

In the Gongyuan, the twenty-four examiners are still actively discussing. As of now, there are only three exam papers left in front of everyone. One of them comes from the Book of Songs Room, and two copies come from the Spring and Autumn Room.

The selection of Huiyuan is closely related, and the eighteen housing examiners unanimously agreed that they can only choose from these three leaders. The remaining work will be left to the six champions to decide.

Come and discuss, everyone. The first thing to be eliminated is the examination paper from the Book of Songs room. It is true that the literary talent of this volume is outstanding, but it is slightly inferior to the other two volumes.

What do you think of these two copies? Wei Yinghong, as the examiner, first asked the deputy what he meant. There are three deputy examiners who make their own choices first. It's a coincidence that it's exactly one to two.

The remaining two people, Lu Xuan and Cao Tingshou, first picked up an examination paper and recommended it: This paper uses an elegant dictionary and must be precise in its analysis. It has the style of the Tang and Song Dynasties, and the bones and emotions are fully displayed. It can be a Huiyuan.

This is indeed the strength of this paper. Wei Yinghong read the test paper and nodded in agreement. Lu Xuan made his choice, and the number became two to two. With a public heart, Wei Yinghong looked at Cao Tingshou again. The other party's reputation among officials is the ballast stone for this trial.

This taciturn man from Shandong picked up another examination paper and read it silently from beginning to end before speaking slowly: The literary talent is outstanding and can be passed down for hundreds of generations. But when I look at this article, I feel like I see the sun and the moon hanging high in the sky. My heart will be with you for thousands of years.”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this comment. They thought Cao Tingshou got the new papers from somewhere, so they gathered them one after another. Seeing that it was still the same as before, everyone patiently read it again.

Within half a month, more than 6,000 papers must be read. No matter how powerful the examiners are, it is inevitable that they will sometimes look at the tree through its own branches. Cao Tingshou's reputation forced everyone to examine the weight of this paper.

A group of people gathered together, holding this paper, reading and discussing it. After reading and reviewing it carefully, after a while, the applause kept coming.

The reading is as clear as the sun and the moon, and as clear as the stars. The meaning is grand, and the text is beautiful. It is really rare, it is really rare.

This is a great thing to say. It is truly a masterpiece. I first saw his talent, secondly I saw his character, and thirdly I saw his big heart. The examiner holding the paper sighed, I wish I could be in the same subject as this person.

Lu Xuan was the last one to read. Before he flipped through, he heard this sentence and smiled: Look at what you said. If you really want to be in the same class, be careful that this person takes away your title of number one scholar.

The man laughed again, Brother Lu, what you said is wrong, you can tell at a glance. Thousands of years later, no one may remember a champion. But there will definitely be common people and scholars. Because of this article, remember In this subject, remember me as the second best. It’s a pity, it’s a pity.”

Before even taking the exam, I dared to directly book the second place. This is the confidence of a top talent.

Lu Xuan stopped talking, lowered his head and read the article again, and again, and again. For a long time, he sighed and said: In the preface of the Spring and Autumn Dynasties, the yin and yang are miserable. The movement of things makes the heart shake.

What this says is that when people watch the four seasons of spring and autumn change back and forth, the cold season is dark and the warm season is bright, and when the scenery changes, people's minds will be shaken and changed unconsciously, and they will be affected.

Lu Xuan himself has a bright future. After reading this article, he has no jealousy in his heart. He stood up immediately, bowed deeply to Cao Tingshou and said, If it weren't for Brother Cao, I would have almost missed it. I encountered a treasure mountain on the road without knowing it. Brother Lu is really ashamed. Thank you Brother Cao for your help.

Seeing this, the other examiners also stood up and saluted. In a short time, you can see the beauty of this article at a glance. Cao Tingshou's knowledge is indeed worthy of his reputation.

Wei Yinghong smiled and asked everyone to sit down again. After this incident, he couldn't help but ask everyone again what they meant. Now, do you have any ideas about the candidates for Huiyuan?

Everyone said nothing else and just pointed at the examination paper on the case. Wei Yinghong nodded and then replied with a smile: Actually, I have been interested in it for a long time.

Everyone laughed, and the examiner Youfang said: Even so, CEO, why don't you open the seal and let us see the candidate for Huiyuan?!

Wei Yinghong looked around at the others. Once they were separated, he confirmed the other party's ranking. If you regret it later, you will be suspected of serving food to others. The five deputy examiners nodded in unison.

Tear it down, I can't find a better article than it.

You have surpassed all the heroes in terms of skills.

It's time to congratulate Ya Yuan in this department.

Everyone held different opinions, but said the same thing.

Wei Yinghong also followed the good example and said with a smile: Good. After saying that, he picked up the tool and carefully removed the paper. Wei Yinghong moved cautiously, for fear of damaging the test paper at all. After some operations, when he saw the candidate's name and place of origin, Wei Yinghong was already beating his chest and shouting in annoyance: Oh, Lin Ruhai, Lin Ruhai, he really got a big deal.

…………

…………

On March 29th, Chunwei released the results. There was a huge crowd at the gate of Gongyuan. Chen Heng had no intention of looking at the rankings. He was confident in his talents. I knew I would definitely pass the exam, but I just couldn't guess the exact ranking.

Qian Dayou and others are not as confident as him. I wanted to go see it, but I was afraid of losing my temper and crying in front of the list. At a loss, he simply hid in Chen's house and waited for Xinda to come back to deliver a message.

By the end of Shenshi, the sound of gongs and drums could already be heard on the street. The Chen family is not far from Gongyuan, and there are many candidates taking the exam living nearby. The crowds of people coming and going to announce the good news always arouse the expectations of Chen Heng's parents. When the sound of the gong faded away, the expressions of the parents turned slightly disappointed again.

This Xinda, why hasn't he come back to report the news? Isn't he literate? ? ? Young man, why are your legs and feet so slow?

Chen Heng saw his parents' reactions in his eyes and couldn't help laughing. This time Xinda went out to inquire about the results of four people, so it was normal to take some time. He was about to say a few words of comfort when Xinda suddenly appeared and stumbled across the courtyard.

Uncle, uncle...

Seeing his reaction, Chen Qi couldn't care less about his son's words. He rushed to the door in a few steps and asked urgently: How is it? How is it?

Xinda hugged Chen Qi's arms and shouted excitedly. My brother is Huiyuan. My brother is Huiyuan.

Just one word is worth a thousand words.

Gu, who had been worried all day, completely slumped on the chair, looking dazed. Qingwen was so frightened that she hurried to Madam's side and patted Gu on the back. Chen Qi didn't even have time to react, he just stared blankly, as if he still couldn't believe it. After a long time, he subconsciously turned his head and looked at his son in the room.

Was this Huiyuan really born to me?

Qian Dayou and others have already reacted. The three of them turned their heads together and looked at their former friend who was still sitting on the chair with a bit of awe.

Xi Xing, you passed the Hui Yuan exam.

Yeah. Chen Heng nodded, but he didn't dare to let go. At this moment, his palms were sweaty.

Qixing! Jiang Yuanbai yelled and laughed wildly, rushing up and hugging Chen Heng, Hahahaha, you are Huiyuan. My classmate is Huiyuan, hahahahahaha.

Xue Biao also reacted and couldn't help but stamp his feet and laugh: Come on, come on! Name on the gold list, name on the gold list.

On that ordinary afternoon more than ten years ago, when Xue Biao came to the academy and chatted with a boy wearing simple clothes, had he ever thought that one day this person would pass the examination and pass the examination?

Qian Dayou's character has become much more upright since he became a father. At this moment, the childishness of childhood arose. He couldn't help but bow to Chen Heng and said: Greetings to Huiyuan, please help Huiyuan to ensure that I will go to high school.

Hahahahaha. Chen Heng was amused by his actions. His Qi-nurturing Kung Fu finally broke through, and he laughed loudly in this refreshing afternoon.

…………

…………

Hahahahaha. Madam, hahahaha, madam...

Lin Ruhai happily ran into his bedroom, where Jia Min was drinking tea and resting. When she saw her husband coming in, she guessed that Heng'er must be in high school. During this time, Chen Heng was embarrassed to come to the door. But when the results were released, how could there be less people from the Lin family asking about him? After all, he was his future uncle, so it was normal for him to be a little concerned.

How's it going? Did Heng'er pass the exam?

Hahahahaha. Lin Ruhai couldn't stop laughing. Every time he wanted to speak, he just laughed out loud. After irritating Jia Min, Lin Ruhai finally took a breath and coughed: You must listen carefully, my student has passed the exam.

What?! Jia Min exclaimed. She was so distracted that she didn't even know the tea lid in her hand fell to the table. She had thought about Chen Hengneng's high school, but she really didn't expect that he could do so well in the exam.

Seeing her like this, Lin Ruhai looked even more proud and kept laughing. This is Huiyuan, and they don’t even know it. As long as Heng'er passes the Hui Yuan examination, the title of No. 1 scholar will not escape his grasp.

Hahahahaha, I want to have a son-in-law who is number one. This son-in-law is still a student taught by me.

Elsewhere in the Lin family, Bao Qin looked at Daiyu who couldn't help crying, and comforted her repeatedly: Sister Lin, my eldest brother has finally come to the end of his hardships. Why are you still crying?

I'm happy, sister. I'm happy for my brother. After Lin Daiyu said this, she couldn't help but put her hands on her heart and secretly sobbed.

Chen Heng was holding a breath in his heart, and how could Daiyu not know it. It's just that she never said anything, and always stayed by her side silently. Although the ordinary time of this year passed by like water, there was no trace. But only those who are close to it can understand the hard work and pain involved.

Fortunately, the rain has passed and the sky is clear now, and the willows are dark and the flowers are bright.

After hearing this, Baoqin smiled and stepped forward to hug Daiyu. Although she is a younger sister, she is still taller than Daiyu. It was quite easy to do such a move.

Everything will be fine, and everything will be fine in the future. Sister Lin! Baoqin couldn't help patting Daiyu's back, comforting her softly. I also send my deepest blessings to this pair of lovers.

Spring is alluring, and flowers are blooming all over the city, vying for everyone to dance with beauty.

Note 1: In the Suzhou Prefecture Chronicle of the Kangxi period, it was written that this incident was recorded on August 19, 1670. There was a loud earthquake, the sea surged, and many people on the coast drowned.

I'll use this to make some adjustments. The time in the book should be 1673, probably...

PS: I was very happy yesterday and thought I would try it after I finish writing it. From now on, I no longer have to look through the information in the Four Books and Five Classics, so I happily ran to the group to celebrate. I immediately remembered that Chen Heng will be the examiner in the future. Fucked immediately! !

It’s so hard to write about the historical area, so please count the votes to comfort me. Thank you everyone.
