Wang An's idea could not be realized in a winter, because Shi Yan asked them to cook and farm the land honestly, and he himself finally began to study to prepare for the township examination in March next year.

Shi Yan took the book and said to Xiao Jia, "It's rare for the emperor to act so casually, the key is that his kung fu has reached the realm, and he is so close to soaring. It's whatever he says."

Xiaojia is curious: "Team leader, is the March Township Exam not good?"

Shi Yan said angrily: "For the candidates in the south, of course, the temperature is suitable and the mood is happy! But I'm a candidate in the north now, the weather in March, the spring is cold, how hard it is!"

Liu Quan knew this very clearly: "It is said that the founder of the country was originally from a prefecture with the hottest summer in the south. When he was young, he saw too many elders at home who took part in the township examination in July and August, and finally fainted by the heat, which made people feel uncomfortable. Lifted out scene.

Soon after becoming emperor, he ordered that the time for the township examination be changed to the end of March. "

Shi Yan sighed helplessly, and asked Wang An and the two to help him prepare the clothes he tried on during this period of time, so they must keep warm.

Xiaojia exposed him mercilessly: "Team leader, stop pretending, you are stronger than cows now, and you are not afraid of the cold in winter!"

Shi Yan raised his eyebrows: "But now I'm a weak and weak scholar who has suffered physical losses."

Shi Yan, a weak scholar, was finally sent to the Gongyuan by his two younger brothers respectfully in March of the second year.

Wang An was very strong, so he negotiated with Liu Quan and let him carry Shi Yan back.

As a result, I saw my boss swaying out of the Gongyuan from a distance, with steady steps and a light body. Except for his unsightly face, he didn't look like a candidate who had been tortured for nine days by the township examination.

Compared with the candidates who fainted as soon as they came out, and the doctor ran to rescue them, the eldest brother seemed more relaxed.

But what is strange is that the gate of Gongyuan is crowded with people, and the eldest of his family seems to have his own isolation cover, and there is no living thing within five feet.

Shi Yan walked up to the two of them quickly, Liu Quan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Shi Yan: "Come on, while it's still early, let's go home and take a shower, it's too bad luck, we got a bad name, and it made me fuming. My nose hurts, my eyes are blurry, I can't eat or sleep, and for the first three days, my stomach twitches and I feel nauseated."

The two of them only later realized that they smelled that Shi Yan's body really stinks, the kind that stinks ten miles away.

Wang An covered his nose and breathed through his mouth, unable to hold back his vomiting.

After a while, he said in a muffled voice, "Boss, have you fallen into the ditch?"

Shi Yan walked out listlessly, as if he was under a strong mental attack. Wherever he passed, everyone retreated, clutching his nose, wishing to die on the spot.

Shi Yan said angrily, "It's worse than falling out of the dungeon. I feel every breath of air I take in is smelly! Stop talking, go home and take a shower!"

Wang An and the villagers borrowed an ox cart to pick up Shi Yan. On the way, Wang An was urged by Shi Yan to drive the ox cart like a horse-drawn carriage.

After entering the courtyard, Liu Quan went to put bath water for Shi Yan, but Wang An said angrily, "If Uncle Six knows that we have spoiled his family's cattle so much, next time I call him Grandpa, he won't be lending it to me. ."

Of course Shi Yan knew this was bad, but wasn't it impossible to do?

He is a man who is not afraid of being shot on the battlefield, but who knows about such things as stinking, even tough guys have to bow down.

Shi Yan took the bath three times, and after washing for more than an hour, the skin on his body became wrinkled, and he finally felt that the lingering smell on the tip of his nose was gone.

As soon as he got dressed and went out, he saw Liu Quan taking him to change his clothes and preparing to wash. Shi Yan pinched his nose and said, "No, no, just throw it away! Vomit! Take it away! Vomit! Quick! Don't go there! Put it in front of me!"

Shi Yan didn't know if he smelled that smell, anyway, the moment he saw the dress, he recalled the nine days in Gongyuan, and people started vomiting involuntarily.

Liu Quan was startled, and hurriedly threw the dress away, Shi Yan's face turned pale as if he had suffered a serious illness.

"Why don't you ask a doctor to take a look? Boss, you look more delicate than the little girl in Aunt Wang's family." Liu Quan suggested.

Shi Yan waved his hand: "I'm going to rest for a while, don't disturb me if you're okay!"

Two days have passed since Shi Yan slept. Liu Quan and the two were worried and invited the old doctor from the village to check on Shi Yan's pulse. The old doctor smiled and said, "It's okay, just fell asleep."

At this time, in the yamen of the Fucheng, the home of the Zhizhou lord Wei Ziheng welcomed a distinguished guest from the capital. Wei Ziheng followed in person, before and after the saddle, with sincerity and fear.

Of course, at the same time of sincerity and fear, my heart could not help but give birth to infinite passion.

Lord Zhizhou, who was wearing a blue student shirt, said to the handsome man in his thirties: "Master, the Taohua Village is in front of you, and Li Xiucai lives in the fifth house from the top of the village.

The one with a jujube tree in the yard is the one. "

The old man dressed in indigo looked around curiously, put away the folding fan in his hand: "Lead the way, sir, when I saw Li Shiyan's article this morning, I felt that this is a student with a bright mind and a brilliant pen, and he can still grow potatoes. Can't wait to see in person if he is who I think he is."

Zhizhou tentatively said: "If you can praise him personally, Li Shiyan's Jie Yuan Lang is worthy of the name. The lower official ordered him to be Jie Yuan for this township test, and it can be considered that he has lived up to your expectations of him."

Seeing that the master did not object, Zhizhou knew that the decision this morning was right.

When a group of people knocked on the door of Yan's house, they did not expect to come out to open the door to be a tall, muscular man with a stubble of less than an inch on his head, and a fierce-looking man.

The guard behind him was startled, and Zhizhou hurriedly said, "Little monk, why are you dressed like this?"

Wang An recognized that the person who came was Zhizhou, and he smiled: "The food at home is so delicious, I will return to the vulgarity!"

Zhizhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "This official and the elders are out to play, passing by here, come and see!"

Wang An greeted several people in the door: "My house is just eating, come in and try it together! My elder brother has been cooking deliciously recently!"

The person who is called the master can see it. The big man in front of him is just looking fierce. He is still a simple and honest man who has not grown up.

Welcoming people in, Wang An shouted in the direction of the kitchen: "Big brother, second brother, there are guests at home! Come out!"

Between the conversations, several people from Zhizhou have been led by Wang An towards the kitchen.

Liu Quan, who came out, said angrily: "Why do you lead people to the kitchen when you come to the kitchen? Do you still have etiquette?"

Wang An smiled: "When someone else is here, I can't bear to lead it to the kitchen when we are eating. This is Mr. Zhizhou..."

When the bowl of porridge was not finished, Shi Yan came out just in time to hear Wang An say this, and reluctantly bowed to Zhizhou: "The younger brother in the family has no status and bumped into the adults, please forgive me!"

Zhizhou didn't say anything, but the old man behind him suddenly said, "I heard from your younger brother, your family's food is very delicious, and you want to invite us to dinner!"

Zhizhou introduced to Shi Yan, "This is the elder in my family, you can just call him Master."

Upon seeing this, Shi Yan knew that the identity of the person who came was not simple.

The old man pointed to the kitchen behind him with interest and said, "Why do you only eat at this hour?"

While talking, he walked into the kitchen with great interest.

The group has no choice but to follow this old man

go in.

Shi Yan replied beside the master: "After the rural exam, I felt unwell and came back and slept for two days. The work and rest of these days were a bit reversed, and I couldn't adjust it."

As soon as they entered the room, several people were attracted by the strong aroma of the kitchen.

Shi Yan asked the two of them to sit down, but the two of them never took their eyes off the food on the table.

Come on, this is really here to eat, there is no other purpose.

Put away the dishes and bowls on the table: "The two of you are hungry too, let my eldest brother cook a few side dishes. We steamed a lot of rice at noon, and the rice is a side dish, let's eat it together!"

Zhizhou nodded quickly: "I'm so sorry."

The old man smiled and said, "I'm sorry to trouble Li Xiaoge."

Shi Yan: "No problem."

The kitchen of Shi Yan's house is very large, with a partition in the middle and a small door connecting the two sides.

A dining table is placed on one side for several people to eat at ordinary times.

On the other side is the stove and the chopping board water tank, where I usually cook.

When Shi Yan gave an order, Wang An and Liu Quan, who were next door, quickly acted. The sound of "stab!" came the sound of green vegetables being put into the pot, followed by the strong fragrance. Resisting the slight movement of his throat, even the guards who stayed outside also twitched their noses.

Zhizhou had to take the initiative to find a topic to divert his attention: "Li Xiucai, just now at the door, I heard from your younger brother, he is still vulgar?"

Shi Yan nodded very honestly: "Originally, the two of them were not sincere monks. Since I asked the villagers to help make an iron pot a few years ago, my eldest brother began to study cooking, and the two of them kept fish and meat every day, completely breaking the idea of ​​becoming monks."

At this time, there was a sweet and sour smell from the kitchen, with a strong taste, Zhizhou couldn't hold back, and told Balu what was in his heart: "If the food you eat every day is so delicious, you will want to become a monk if your brain is sick."

Shi Yan: "…"

After Zhizhou finished speaking, he realized that he had made a slip of the tongue. He carefully observed the expression of the master beside him, and he was relieved when he saw that there was no annoyance on the face of the master.

"Just now I heard that you participated in this township examination, how do you feel?" The master beside Zhizhou suddenly asked Shi Yan.

Shi Yan didn't even think about it and said, "If the stinky names in the examination room can be moved to the battlefield, I believe that few enemies can endure that smell for a long time!"

After Shi Yan finished speaking, his face was pale and his throat moved slightly. He thought of the scene in Gongyuan again, and wanted to vomit.

His change was so obvious that it was hard for the two of them not to notice.

The old man couldn't believe it: "Is it so serious?"

Shi Yan got up, waved to the two of them, went out of the room, vomited twice, took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and felt much better before returning to the room and answering the master's question.

"The next person who grows up in the countryside, what kind of hard work, tiring work, dirty work has not been done? But the stinky name of the Gongyuan is really the best I have ever seen in my life!"

After speaking, he couldn't hold back and ran outside to take a deep breath of fresh air.

Leaving Master Zhizhou and his master to look at each other.

Zhizhou smiled innocently: "I was lucky in the past, and I never encountered a stinky name during the imperial examination, so I don't know."
