The Coral of the Red Mansion Does Not Return

Chapter 56 Jia Hu Enters the Tribute Academy

Zhou Ren's face was flushed, his eyes sparkled, and he asked with his tongue out, "You... who are you?"

Jia Hu sighed, and leaned closer to smell how much wine he had drunk, only the clear fragrance of pears.He said softly: "You are drunk, I will take you back to your room." He actually avoided talking about it.

Zhou Ren was in a hurry, pulled his sleeves with some grievances, and fell into his arms, saying: "Then you carry me back."

Jia Hu's eyes turned cold.

This kind of thing is the fun between lovers, but it is not the proper etiquette between friends.

Without saying a word, he turned and walked away.

After walking a few steps, he heard a crying male voice behind him.

"You don't want to see me like that?"

Jia Hu turned around, stood in front of him and asked helplessly, "Stop pretending?"

Jia Hu was younger than Zhou Ren, but a head taller than him, and when they stood together, Zhou Ren felt a little weaker.

Zhou Ren looked at Jia Hu.

Jia Hu has a thin body, smooth lines, and a cool-hearted person under the suave surface, but people are always deceived by his smiling face.

Zhou Ren saw that he was the same as every time the two had conflicts, with a helpless smile on his face, red eye circles, and not in that drunken state, sobbing and asking: "We have been together for nearly three years! Just because I decided to Darling, are you going to...abandon me?"

Jia Hu repeated what he had been saying all this time, and said, "I said from the very beginning that if one day someone doesn't want to be with the other party, we can get together and break up."

Zhou Ren thought it was an excuse, but this man made up his mind. He hadn't seen him for a long time, and he didn't send a letter.He looked at the words for the first time, and then opened his eyes wide in disbelief, "Have you been planning the separation since then?!" The anger in his heart was almost burning.

The voice of this sentence was a bit loud, Jia Hu didn't like to be seen as a monkey show, so he whispered: "Don't make noise here, let's go to your room."

Zhou Ren wanted to refuse stubbornly, but gradually calmed down under his warning eyes, and then broke out in a cold sweat.The people who live here are all candidates for the current imperial examinations. If there is a big trouble, the reputation of the two will be ruined.

Along the way, Zhou Ren thought a lot, and finally admitted in despair that Jia Hu is not a person who is easy to compromise.But he still decided to stay for the last time.

As soon as the door closed, Zhou Ren rushed over to kiss him. Jia Hu didn't expect that Zhou Ren, who had always been reserved, was so enthusiastic this time, and wanted to push him away, but Zhou Ren held him down with all his strength.

Lips and tongues intertwined, saliva blended together, Zhou Ren clumsily imitated Jia Hu's usual way of kissing him, his slippery tongue was entangled with his.

The scorching breath, warm embrace, and strong arms evoke the memory of Zhou Ren's body, and the dense crispness came from the tailbone, and he was completely relaxed for a while.

Jia Hu pushed him away, his face livid.

Zhou Ren wiped his mouth and said with a sly smile: "You still have feelings? Don't you?"

He looked proudly at Jia Hu's lower body, meaning something.

Jia Hu snorted, "It's just been holding back for a long time." But her heart sank.In the past, when he broke up with someone, even if the other party was very tempting, he would not be interested. After the breakup, he would not feel it anymore, and no one would force him to come.

Could it be...he has no more love for Zhou Ren?

He also thought that there was some affection in the first place, but it was Zhou Ren's engagement that made the hasty decision to separate.But there are not a few points left, he has always allowed his own people not to belong to him completely.

"Can passion | desire prove anything?" Jia Hu said casually.

Zhou Ren stared at him for a long time, seeing that he refused to admit it, he closed his eyes with a little tiredness, and said, "Okay, I agree to part." He opened it suddenly, his eyes flashed with determination, and said, "If you regret it , don’t come back and beg me!”

After finishing speaking, he pushed him out of the door, slammed it shut, and leaned against the door panel, weeping silently.

Jia Hu came to his senses all of a sudden, feeling a little lost in his heart, but let Zhou Ren shut him out.Only then did he smile bitterly. He chose it by himself. Does he really want to be with someone who betrayed him?Although Zhou Ren didn't mean it, Jia Hu was also prepared mentally from the beginning, and when this day came, it was still difficult to accept it.

What troubles a man without a wife!The fate that should come will always come, Zhou Ren is not the one who will accompany him to go on, if it is broken, it will be broken!What's more, the spring is just around the corner, and the stage of Dazhou is wide, and he is about to flex his muscles, so why stick to the love of his sons and daughters? !

Jia Hu strengthened his faith in this room, and Zhou Ren was tired from crying in that room, and both of them thought of this year's Chunwei at the same time.Zhou Ren smiled wryly, and walked to the desk with heavy steps, numbly sinking himself into the interpretation of the scriptures; but Jia Hu turned a corner and completely left the corridor on the third floor.

In the hall downstairs, only Lin Li was still there.Seeing Jia Hu approaching, his eyes lit up, and he asked restrainedly, "How?"

Jia Hu smiled and nodded: "It's done."

Seeing Lin Li's expectant look, he added: "From now on, it's irrelevant."

Lin Li's complexion changed, and he saw the relaxation on Jia Hu's face, and couldn't help but feel deeply worthless for Xianzong.

His gentle expression couldn't hold back anymore, and he said lightly: "Ziming has taken a fancy to a small courtyard in the back, and Yuanji went with him."

Jia Hu was startled, but then understood again.The rooms are not soundproof.He smiled and said, "It's because I didn't think carefully."

Lin Li shook his head, stood up and said, "Don't think too much, we are still friends. I'll go back to my room first."

Jia Hu watched him off with a smile, and when he left, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

For a moment, there was a vague sneer in the air.

Because of this incident, the few friends did not see each other afterwards, only Zhao Yi bumped into Jia Hu once, and jokingly asked, "How does it feel to be isolated?"

Jia Hu smiled without saying a word.

Seeing Zhao Yi's dark circles, he asked back, "Do you want me to say something nice for Yuanji in front of His Highness?"

Zhao Yi's complexion changed, and he gave him a hard look, "Don't make trouble for us." He hurried away, afraid that Jia Hu would do something to him.

Jia Hu laughed from behind.

On the eighth day of February, the day before the exam, admission began.

At the entrance of the Gongyuan, dozens of petty officials were rummaging through their clothes, and there was a long line of single-clothed officials, shivering in the chilly spring.

On the carriage, Jia Amnesty kept asking, "Have you brought everything?"

"Did you bring all your pens and ink? Is there enough snacks? Did you bring a stove for boiling water?"

"The single clothes don't keep you warm, did you bring the big wool clothes?"

"I have brought everything," Jia She asked again and again, and Jia Hu answered tirelessly, "I have brought all the woolen clothes, stove, charcoal, snacks, rice, pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

He also comforted: "Before departure, mother checked again and again, and there are no omissions. Please rest assured father."

Jia She was not by Jia Hu's side during the child's examination and the rural examination. This was the first time he sent Jia Hu to the examination room, so he was afraid that something might go wrong.

After finally clinging to the things in the exam basket, Jia Amnesty urged him earnestly: "Many exams fell ill and insisted on taking the exam, and they were finally carried out. Our family has a title, so you don't have to work so hard." If you are sick, you must not force yourself." Then he said fiercely: "If you fall ill, I will pass the title to Lian'er!"

After thinking about it, it was wrong, he poohed a few times, and said: "I said something wrong, don't blame me. Hu'er, don't force yourself when you are sick, our family has a title, at worst, let your brother take the exam later!"

Jia Hu couldn't laugh or cry, but his heart was very warm. He smiled and said, "Father, you forgot that I practiced martial arts with my grandfather? I'm in good health, don't worry." I am weak, my body is poor, and my family is poor, so I only wear jackets, so I can’t stand the disease. I am strong, and I wear woolen clothes, so I will definitely not get sick!"

Jia She took Jia Hu's analysis very seriously, and wanted to tell him to answer the question, but he got stuck for a long time and didn't say anything.

Jia Hu thought for a moment, and knew what his father wanted to say, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said, "A few days ago, Uncle Lin and the two uncles gave me instructions, and my father is just waiting for good news from me."

Jia She was a little embarrassed, and said: "Your uncle Lin also praised your knowledge. The Jinshi is bound to be selected, but I don't know whether it is in the first or second class. I just said that the Holy Majesty may have other considerations. I'm afraid I will give you a grace. You don't have to think too much, just take the exam at ease."

Just as he was talking, the team in front moved slowly. Although it was still early, Jia She was afraid that he would not be able to catch up, so he urged Jia Hu to get off the car.In order to reassure his father, Jia Hu also went down.Jia Amnesty waited in the carriage for a long time, seeing that Jia Hu had entered the tribute courtyard, he ordered the servant to drive the carriage back home.

Jia Hu got out of the carriage, and soon it was his turn.

The official from the Ministry of Rites recognized Jia Hu, said politely, "I have met the son of Duke Rongguo", and began to deal with business.

First confirm that it is the person, and then check other information before starting to check.

Seeing that his clothes were expensive, and receiving hints from the Ministry of Rites, the officials in charge of inspection at the Tribute Court didn't dare to offend these candidates too much, so they checked him more carefully.Just to prevent entrainment, it is still very strict.

Several small officials came up to accompany him and said with a smile: "I'm offended." Two or three went to check Jia Hu's clothes to see if there was any interlayer and if there was any handwriting.A few others went to see the test basket.

Mrs. Liu prepared a lot of things.

A big test basket, full of things, those exquisitely shaped snacks have been crushed, and it is confirmed that there are no notes or anything in it.

The fine Ning Mo had already been cut into small pieces by Jia Hu, and the small staff could not hide such a small cube with even a small piece of paper, so he gave Jia Hu a face and only checked it symbolically.

There are still a few lake pens, but we can't let them go. Take them apart to see if there is any entrainment in the hollow inside.

An oven and pot were inspected over and over again, the charcoal was smokeless charcoal, and someone fiddled with it a few times with his hands. Fortunately, the person washed his hands afterwards, because there was still a bag that was not too big or small. , filled with millet, which can nourish the stomach when Jia Hu is tired of eating snacks.

The most conspicuous thing is the bear skin on the northeast side, it has only one layer, so it is not afraid of entrainment.The leather is very big, and the quilt in the Gongyuan may not be very comfortable. This leather is just used as a blanket.

After checking everything, the official of the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of recording nodded to Jia Hu, and took Jia Hu to his number room alone.
