Chapter 2029 Provincial Examination

More than a month later, Meng Yunzheng wrote again.

He said that no matter it was Jiang Kuanyu or the deputy bodyguard leader, they would eventually help Ling return to his hometown, and his hometown was both in the north.

Therefore, Qi Lie and others suspected that the last black market was in the north. However, when Meng Pei found the deputy bodyguard's hometown earlier, his family had already left, and the building was empty. No one knew where they had gone.

Neighbors said that the family disappeared overnight, not long ago. There are only four people in the deputy bodyguard's family. The target is not big and it is really difficult to find.

Later, Qi Lie went to investigate the passenger ship at the dock. This was easy to investigate. Although the passenger ship was a mixed bag, you still needed to have your identity and household registration if you wanted to board the ship.

However, after Qi Lie found the boatman and described the appearance of the first officer, the other party said that he had indeed seen this person, but he got off the boat shortly after boarding the boat and never came back on.

In other words, after the deputy head escort saw Ying Dong and knew that Ying Dong recognized him, he chose another way to leave just in case.

In this way, the clues are interrupted here, and it will be very difficult to investigate again.

But no matter how difficult it is, Qi Lie and the others will continue.

Shu Yu didn't pay attention to this matter for the time being, because the provincial examination was coming soon.

In August, the weather is still very hot, but the candidates rushing to take the exam are becoming more and more enthusiastic.

Dong'an Prefecture is also preparing for the provincial examination, and all the inns in the city are full. Even in Dongqing Temple outside the city, there are women taking the examination praying for accommodation.

The provincial examination is held once every three years and is much more solemn than the college examination.

Wei Ronghua took the opportunity to launch a promotion of instant noodles, and many candidates stocked up on them in preparation for the exam.

Shu Yu could imagine the scene where the instant noodles were filled with the aroma of instant noodles in the examination room.

What Shu Yu didn't expect was that even Mrs. Tan came to buy a bunch of them.

She said to Shu Yu, "Tan Cheng has been lying in bed for two years. Now he is picking up knowledge again, but he has fallen behind a lot. So when he took the provincial examination this time, he focused on participating, mainly to feel the atmosphere, and he didn't expect to pass the exam. I think it’s a good idea to give it a try so that I can feel confident about taking the exam next time.”

Shu Yu thought it made sense. Not only Tan Cheng went to the examination room to feel the atmosphere, but Shu Rui and the other three were also suggested by Master Wen to come to Fucheng to experience the atmosphere of the examination.

Master Wen means that Shu Rui can try to take the Tongsheng Examination next year. Although this is a provincial examination, it is good to understand the process now.

Therefore, during this period, the three of them lived in the backyard of Luji Shop in Fengtao Lane.

During the day, we went to various places. There were many students in the city, and there were often various poetry gatherings. The three of them had a great time.

Because Meng Yunzheng also participated in this provincial examination, the old lady was somewhat nervous, so she specially took Shu Yu to Dongqing Temple to pray.

Dongqing Temple is full of people. Even if Shu Yu was full of confidence in Meng Yunzheng, he could not help but be infected by such an atmosphere. He sincerely offered incense to the ancestor and prayed to him to bless Meng Yunzheng smoothly.

The provincial examination is divided into three sessions, each lasting three days.

Once the nine-day exam was over, everyone looked exhausted.

However, the nervousness and apprehension has just begun, and those who feel a little hopeful are waiting for the results to be announced.

Candidates like Tan Cheng who were just testing the waters were able to eat and sleep at ease.

Shu Yu is also waiting for Meng Yunzheng's letter and looking forward to good news.

However, before the letter from Changjin Mansion arrived, the Lu family had another thing waiting for them.
