Chapter 272 [The carriage was stopped]

Yang Wanyi took the wooden box and looked at the "Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum" carved on the metal seal. The knifework was vigorous and she knew that the seal was made by her husband Xin Chong.

After she came of age, she married Xin Chong and thought she would be trapped in the square inner house, but she didn't expect that her life would remain the same as before. She even became more relaxed and free after leaving the Yang family.

The ancestors of the Xin family left a family precept that men of the Xin family are not allowed to take concubines.

The backyard of Marquis Zhaoping's mansion is quiet, and the housekeeper and the nanny are both good at their work.

Yang Wanyi can do whatever she wants to do, including music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, and Marquis Zhaoping will give her full support.

She held the seal of the court supervisor in her hand and looked at the Zhaoping Marquis who was hanging up the signboard. Suddenly, she remembered what Xin Chong had said to her many years ago: "Wanyi, you are the most talented woman in the capital. I believe you can open up a wider world."

The auspicious hour of Shen arrived, and amid the crackling sound of firecrackers, a golden plaque was hung on the school's door, and Wanyi Academy was established.

In front of the academy, the dragon dance team moved up and down to the sound of gongs and drums, and the golden dragon lantern leaped in front of the academy plaque.

Jiang Lili, Rong Shen, Xin Cheng, Wen Qiao and others looked at the Wanyi Academy in front of them. They had not yet thought about how many heroes and young talents would come out of here in a few years, and what kind of legends they would become in history books.

People's joys and sorrows are not shared. Compared with the joy and excitement on Haizhou Island, the capital city is filled with a solemn and depressing atmosphere.

At the end of the afternoon in the capital, crows circled in the cold night sky.

At this time, in the class group, Zhou Jushan, Xue Wei, Hou Xiaoxiao, Qi Yun, and He Lin, who were participating in the banquet from the Beijing team, each started a live broadcast. In case of any emergency, everyone can support each other at any time.

Besides, with so many students watching the live broadcast, one more pair of eyes means a greater chance of discovering danger.

Not to mention the sharp "eagle eyes" of Police Officer Sheng Zhixingsheng.

Sheng Zhixing felt that he didn't need to wear reading glasses when watching the video screen on the group chat interface. His eyes were as clear as when he was young.

Jiang Lili felt that these classmates in Beijing were quite miserable. They had to be nervous even when having a meal.

He Lin, the only one who did not have to enter the palace, was still comforting the refugees in the suburbs of Beijing.

The horse-drawn carriage carrying goods from Hejia Village on the outskirts of the city to the city was stopped again.

The Lantern Festival is a lively occasion, and lanterns and flowers are in short supply in the city. Many dignitaries buy things from the He Family Flower Shop at high prices. Many businessmen make a fortune during holidays, which is quite common throughout history.

The He family's carriage was full of important goods that needed to be delivered urgently. It was a very cold day, and the flowers had to be fumigated in hot basins as soon as they left the greenhouse. Now they were stopped on the road. If it were an ordinary person, they would have been extremely anxious.

Fortunately, Jiang Lili Xiaopang provided us with a charcoal stove and an insulated box that did not require electricity.

He Lin felt that the repeated incidents of refugees stopping cars were no longer a coincidence. His He family business had nothing to do with these refugees, so there must be someone behind the scenes.

Today he has figured out how to solve this problem completely.

Compared to this, He Lin and others were more curious. Today was the day when Xue Wei, the study committee member who had been in seclusion for study, came out to rest for a day.

Xue Wei is preparing intensively for the imperial examination. This year's spring examination will be held from the ninth to the fifteenth day of the second lunar month, a total of nine days.

I don’t know how the student council members have been preparing during these days of seclusion. They haven’t seen the student council members speak in the group for a long time.

Xue Wei asked Jiang Lili to send him a lot of books.

Although he was the kind of student who could get good grades even if he studied a little and played around, he was more focused and serious than ever before when it came to the imperial examination.

After all, his position is related to the fate of the entire class. He has to climb to a high position and grasp the supreme power in order to better protect his classmates.

At this time, Xue Wei finally came online.

@薛蔚 (Taifu's son): Hahahaha, I, Xue Wei, finally have a day off! Ah! A long-awaited vacation!

Xue Wei's live broadcast camera had not yet turned over. At this time, through the live broadcast screen, we can see that he is in a spacious and luxurious carriage. He must be on his way to the palace.

His voice appeared earlier, and his tone was almost as excited as if he had just been released from prison.

@Jiang Lili: Study committee member, are you feeling okay? Why do you seem like you're going crazy studying?

@Xue Wei (son of the Grand Tutor): I'm doing very well. I've already started fantasizing about winning the championship and rising to prominence.

If someone else said this, the group members would all mock him for being "too confident", but if the top student in their class said this, everyone would have a clue in their minds, especially when Xue Wei's live broadcast camera turned and the classmates saw Xue Wei's face, they were all stunned for a moment.

His demeanor was less impetuous than before, and his posture was elegant, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Perhaps due to his hard study, Xue Wei's already handsome features became even more angular, and the purple brocade robe with lotus pattern made him look more handsome.

@张小胖: The student council members have a kind of handsomeness that comes from being fully immersed in knowledge.

【@江麗麗: This is settling down! 】

@He Lin (Beijing celebrity): If I don't speak, I feel like I'm out of reach.

When the group members were thinking that the student council member looked so handsome and unfamiliar, Xue Wei took out a plate of melon seeds from under the small table in front of him and started to eat them like an old man. The seeds made a crunching sound, which shattered his previous image in one fell swoop.

Classmates: ...

[@Squad Leader Qi Yun: It's too early to say that. You're still the same idiot as before.]

@Jiang Lili: From being out of reach to being like someone you'd hang out with at the village entrance, gossiping with the aunties, all at once.

Xue Wei spat out the sunflower seed shells: [It's vacation time now! We're all family, so what's wrong with popping some sunflower seeds?]

At this moment, Xue Wei's carriage suddenly stopped.

Xue Wei was startled, put away the melon seeds in his hand, sat up straight, his expression suddenly became cold, and the change in temperament was controlled perfectly.

After a moment, the groom reported, "Second Young Master, our carriage is colliding head-on with the troops led by Commander Xia Suxia of the Military Affairs Department."

Xue Wei was confused. Shouldn't Xia Su be guarding the palace gate at this time?

The road I came from leads to the suburbs of Beijing. Why did Xia Su lead his men to the suburbs?

Xue Wei lifted the curtain and said, "Master Xia, I have long admired you."

"It turns out to be the second son of the Taifu family."

When Xia Su saw that it was Xue Wei, he became more polite.

He knew that Xue Wei and He Lin had some dealings.

Xia Su's sister, Concubine Rou, is pregnant with a dragon baby, thanks to the shelled Amomum villosum that He Lin, the shopkeeper of He's Trading Company, found.

The Xia family treated He Lin as a guest of honor and also gave Xue Wei some face.

Xia Su, on horseback, bowed and said, "I'm in a hurry to lead people to the outskirts of Beijing. I hope you can help me."

Xue Wei asked the coachman to make way.

Xia Su nodded slightly: "Thank you, Second Master Xue."

@Xue Wei: Why is Xia Su bringing people to the suburbs? What a scene! Is this a riot by refugees in the suburbs? @He Lin, big star, are you still in the suburbs? What's the situation there now?
