Due to a series of changes such as the death of Huang Fuzi, the time of the spring test was postponed by a month, so the original spring test became a veritable "summer test".
The days are getting hotter and hotter day by day, and there is less rain this year, so the emperor Zhao Zhen, who has not been in Ontario for a few days, began to turn around again, worried that if it doesn't rain again, there will be a drought.
Zhao Pu felt that Zhao Zhen was also miserable, he was afraid of drought if it didn't rain, and he was afraid of waterlogging when it rained too much, so he jumped up early in the morning every day to compete with the weather.
In the end, Zhao Zhen invited a group of people who didn't know whether it was a monk or a Taoist, in short, it was said that there was a special set of people who jumped the god to ask for rain, and tossed at the gate of the palace for a day, and did not ask for half a drop of rain.
Concubine Pang held the lotus seed soup to Zhao Zhen, who was full of bubbles, and Xiangxiang took a small fan to fan her father Xiaofeng.
The little fourth son went to the palace and saw it, and felt that the emperor was too pitiful, so he hid in the corner and slapped three small slaps, and then the sky "rumbled" for a while, and the rain poured down.
Zhao Zhen jumped so high that he circled around the room with Xiangxiang in his arms.
The fourth son was taken home by Zhao Pu with an umbrella, and the ninth prince said in his heart that Zhao Zhen asked the great god to give the money to the fourth son.
Zhao Pu took the little fourth son back to Kaifeng Mansion, and saw Chen Xing'er and Crescent Moon holding two large pots of winter dates, humming a little song and walking to the backyard.
Zhao Pu stretched out his hand to take one, and the little fourth son also reached out to take it, but it didn't look right "Isn't this a lot of food bowls?"
As soon as the fourth son said a word, Zhao Pudu quickly took out the dates that Zhao Pudu stuffed into his mouth.
The two girls smiled and walked back, chatting about ponies or something.
Zhao Pu and Xiao Sizi glanced at each other When the two ran to the backyard, they saw that many people were there.
In the stable, Zao Duoduo was standing there, Gongsun was touching its belly beside it, and Bai Yunfan was on the side, tilting his head to watch.
In the stables on both sides, the black owl of Zhao Pu's family, Ouyang's crazy girl, Zou Liang's seventh year, Lin's nightfire family's stupidity, and Gongsun's little donkey all looked at it curiously.
Xiao Wu, as a tiger who successfully blended into the herd, also squatted in the stable, watching the excitement.
In front of the stable gate, Zhanzhao sat on a small bench, holding his chin with both hands and staring at Duoduo's stomach.
Bai Yutang leaned against a pillar in front of the stable, and Tianzun held a carrot and fed the little donkey of the Gongsun family.
Yin Hou was holding a tea bowl, and beside him sat Master Wusha, who was relaxing Xiao Liangzi's muscles.
Lin Yehuo asked Zhanzhao, "Are you sure Duoduo has a big belly and is not fat again?"
Zhan Zhao nodded, "It feels different." ” The little fourth son opened his mouth wide, ran to the door of the stable, and looked up at the grandson who had closed his hands and was washing his hands.
Gongsun wiped his hands, coughed lightly, walked up to Bai Yunfan, reached out and patted its horse's neck, "Congratulations" Bai Yunfan blinked, and he heard a cheer from the little fourth son.
Zhan Zhao helped his forehead sure enough Bai Yutang began to look around, considering the renovation of the stables.
Zhao Pu and the others all came over to line up to congratulate Bai Yunfan, and the corners of Lin Yehuo's mouth twitched straight out of the people in Kaifeng Mansion, sometimes they were even more outrageous than those in Devil City.
"What kind of horse will the Jade Lion and the Fire Qilin give birth to?"
asked Zou Haoqi.
Bai Yutang is in good spirits, "Will you give birth to a fire-maned white dragon?"
Everyone looked at Bai Yutang curiously, and they listened to it with a good spirit "The Firemane White Dragon has been extinct for a long time."
Yin Hou said, "After the jade jade lion and the unicorn horse are bred and the easiest to give birth to is the white dragon horse or the fire dragon horse, the body size will be close to the jade lion, but it looks like a unicorn horse, and it has a long mane.
The white dragon horse and the dragon bird are somewhat similar.
As he spoke, he pointed to the black owl of the Zhao Pu family, "The only difference is the way the mane grows."
If the long mane of the white dragon horse is gradient color, the root of the mane is snow-white, gradually turning red, and finally the end of the mane is as red as fire, it is the legendary fire-maned white dragon.
The horse's hair has a light red gradient, and the outline is like scales, which I have only heard from horse idiots, but I have never seen it.
However, in order to make a fire-maned white dragon, there must be a purebred female fire unicorn and a male Zhaoye Jade Lion, and the hair of the Zhaoye Jade Lion must have a little silver gradient. ” After listening to Yin Hou's words, everyone went to see Bai Yunfan.
Bai Yutang stretched out his hand and gently stroked Bai Yunfan's back hair, and saw the thick white hair running along Bai Yutang's slender fingers, under the sun, with a faint silver luster, Bai Yunfan snorted, gently flicked his mane, and shone the noble and gorgeous appearance of the jade lion in the night, so that everyone was full of expectations for the upcoming foal.
Zhanzhao gently stroked Zao Duoduo's belly, smiled and patted its neck gently, "I'm going to be a mother." ” Duoduo rubbed Zhanzhao, his tail flicked lightly and skillfully, as if he knew that he couldn't walk for Zhanzhao for a while, looked at Zhanzhao with big eyes, and then looked at the wings fluttering on the roof in the distance.
Zhanzhao touched Duoduo's ears and signaled that it didn't matter, don't worry.
At noon, the little fourth son came in a hurry and asked Zhan Showa Bai Yutang, "Did the cat go to see the Dragon King Festival in vain?"
Bai Yutang was a little puzzled, "Does the Dragon King sacrifice Kaifeng Mansion also worship the Dragon King?"
"I don't think there's such a tradition."
Zhan Zhao shook his head.
"It's just a temple fair."
Outside the gate of the courtyard, Gongsun Dao, who walked in with a few books, said, "Wasn't it a long time ago, and it suddenly rained recently, so the people who were originally going to hold the temple fair were going to make a dragon king sacrifice, and there were many opera troupes to perform." ” "Oh" is clear.
"I'm going to help adults prepare for the spring exam, you can help me take the little fourth son to go."
Gongsun Dao.

Zhan Zhao nodded, Bai Yutang was a little curious, "What about Zhao Pu?"
"I just received a letter from the border gate, and Zou Liang and they went out of the city."
Gongsun Dao.
Zhan Zhao asked, "Isn't there something happening at the border gate?"
"Oh, that's not true, the letter was sent by He Yihang, mainly to report to Zhao Pu that he was safe, Da Dan has been sent home safely, in addition, it seems that Long Qiaoguang is in charge of training sailors, Zou Liang prepares a place to live for him, and Zhao Pu goes to the dock."
Gongsun said, "Before, the emperor said that the navy was too weak, and he wanted to gather it to rectify it and train it again."
Originally, Zou Liang was in charge, but it didn't seem that the effect was too good, Zou Liang suggested that Long Qiaoguang stay for a while and manage the water army. ” Zhan Zhao was slightly curious, "Zou Liang's soldiers and horses are so well managed, can't he do anything about the navy?"
Gongsun shook his head helplessly, "Of course the soldiers and horses of the Zhao family army are well managed, Zou Liang is too upright and an honest man, the navy is already a mess, and with Zou Liang's character, he may kick hundreds of people into the sea every day."
Zhao Pu said that Long Qiaoguang was an old fritter, and there was no generation gap in communication with those ruffians and hooligans, so he asked him to lay the foundation for Zou Liang, an honest boy. ” Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao nodded, Long Qiaoguang don't look at it as a chatter, but people are shrewd to a certain level, and it is interesting, in addition, the right general is good at bows and crossbows, and the bow and crossbow of the navy army is originally the most important skill, and Zhao Pu is estimated to have this meaning when he was transferred.
"Speaking of which, why did the emperor suddenly think of training a naval army?"
asked Zhan Zhao.
"It was Zhao Pu who proposed it."
Gongsun grabbed the little fourth son and washed his face, "Zhao Pu was still saying a few days ago that the other few of the four holy places are in the sea, and it is really not good to have a water army."
By the way, there's another rumor recently, have you heard about it?"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang shook their heads together, and it was rumored that the questions that might be tested in the recent spring exam were all over the sky.
"When some fishermen went out to sea, they found the Xingtian that sank during the Tang Dynasty."
Gongsun's words made Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang surprised.
Xingtian is a large warship built in the Tang Dynasty, the largest building ship in history, it is said to be able to carry more than 5,000 soldiers, larger than the Feiyun in the Eastern Wu Dynasty.
This is also the meaning of naming it after the legendary giant Xingtian, but the Xingtian encountered wind and waves and capsized on its maiden voyage, not to mention the heavy casualties, the Tang Dynasty lost face, and the Tang King was furious.
The design and construction of the Xingtian were carried out by some of the most famous shipbuilding families of the time.
Because of the sinking of the Xingtian, all of these shipwrights were implicated, and it is said that hundreds of craftsmen were beheaded at that time, and even more were sent and punished.
Since then, no shipwright has been willing to build a warship of more than 3,000 people, no matter how much money the imperial court has paid, it is said that it cannot be built, and the skill has been lost, and this tradition has been preserved to this day.
"But then there were a lot of other claims."
Bai Yutang is very familiar with things like shipbuilding because he is on the empty island, "Some say that someone did something on the ship and caused it to sink, and some say that it is the officials who made profits or dereliction of duty, and finally let the shipwrights take the blame." ” "Quite possibly."
Zhan Zhao nodded, "It's a pity that so many famous shipbuilding families were all killed. ” "My second brother said the same thing."
Bai Yutang said, "In fact, it is true that many skills have been lost, and now they can't build big ships, it is said that the shipwrights of the year burned all the drawings in a fit of anger, and the apprentices did not accept it, if you can really find the Xingtian that sank that year, many lost skills can be recovered." ” Gongsun also nodded, "Zhao Pu has already sent someone to investigate, and the emperor said that no matter how much money is paid, the ship must be fished up." ” Bai Yutang felt that he should write a letter to his second brother, if Xingtian could really see the light of day, his second brother would definitely want to take a look.
"Cats and cats are in vain."
Seeing that everyone suddenly started talking about shipbuilding, Xiao Sizi dragged the hem of Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang's clothes, "Are you going?"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned and asked him, "Where are you going?"
The little fourth son puffed out his cheeks, "Dragon King Sacrifice" Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, reached out and pinched his cheeks, "It's just to accompany you to the temple fair, right?"
The little fourth son nodded.
Zhan Zhao looks at Bai Yutang.
Bai Yutang nodded.
Xiao Sizi clapped his hands, "I'll go tell Yin Yin." ” Zhan Zhao wondered, "Grandpa will go too" "No, Yin Yin is not going, but Zunzun said he would go."
Xiao Sizi said, "But today Xiao Liangzi wants to follow Jiujiu to the dock, so it's just me and Zunzun."
Then Yin Yin said that he had to find another normal adult with a mature mind before he could let Zunzun go to the temple fair. ” Zhan Zhao couldn't cry or laugh, and Bai Yutang also shook his head.
After the demon king's internal force disappeared, Tianzun did not change much, and his personality did not seem to have changed much, he was still like a child.
However, Bai Yutang felt that Tianzun's "smooth transition" was due to the little fourth son.
So, the fifth master squatted down, reached out and touched the head of the little fourth son, and said with a smile, "Let's go together." ” Xiao Sizi's face was red and he nodded, "Hmm" After lunch, sure enough, the entire Kaifeng City was lively, the streets were full of people, and the temple fairs were usually very lively, not to mention that there were many troupes parade this time.
Many people are singing and dancing carrying big flower shelves, all kinds of floats and lantern paper figures, it is said that they will make trouble until night, and then put sky lanterns.
When he went out, in addition to Zhanzhao, Bai Yutang, Tianzun and Xiao Sizi, Pang Yu and Bao Yan also followed.
Bao Yan is preparing for the spring exam, but he spends more time helping Lord Bao investigate the case, in fact, even Zhao Zhen said that Bao Yan can directly participate in the palace exam, and there is no need to trouble at all.
Bao Yan took so many exams, on the one hand, he was afraid that some people would gossip, and on the other hand, everyone also felt that Bao Yan deliberately wanted to delay Bao Yan's entry into the office.
Don't look at Lord Bao's usual black mouth and black face, but he doesn't expect his son to be Jackie Chan so much, just want him to live happily for a lifetime.
Helplessly, Wenqu Xingjiacai is naturally a talented girl, and Bao Yan's later Taixue has been less than three months, and he is already the heart of all the old masters in Taixue.

Many people in Kaifeng City have begun to collect Bao Yan's manuscripts and paintings, and it is definitely not because he is the son of Lord Bao, but because his calligraphy and painting are really excellent and have a bright future.
Bao Yan went out with Pang Yu to take a walk today, and to everyone's surprise, this time it was Bao Yan who accompanied Pang Yu to relax, not the little marquis who accompanied Bao Yan.
Xiao Hou Ye has been a little angry recently, this person, once he walks on the crooked road, he can't stop it, but once he goes from the crooked road to the right road, sometimes it is out of control.
As a relative of the emperor, Pang Yu can naturally go to Taixue to study.
But Xiao Hou Ye's foundation is too poor, it's always not good to be at the bottom of every exam, but he is still Bao Yan's sworn friend, this person wants to face trees and bark, and Xiao Hou Ye can't hang on his face, so he works hard.
Recently, in addition to the spring exam, Taixue also has to take an exam.
Master Lin Xiaozi, who is too learned, also told Pang Yu a few days ago that he has made a lot of progress in his homework recently, and he should be able to do well in the exam this time, and the old man is quite interesting, so he doesn't have to worry too much, and the prodigal son will not change his money.
At this time, Bao Yanjia, Ouyang Chunhua and Zhao Lan all took turns to make up lessons for Pang Yu, so seeing that the exam was getting closer and closer, the little marquis was restless all day long.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also wanted to laugh, this feng shui rotation is not fake, who would have thought that Pang Yu, a little crab, would still have the days when he couldn't sleep for the exam.
Everyone walked along with the crowd.
Xiao Sizi and Tianzun each grabbed a string of sugar gourds in one hand, and Pang Yu and Bao Yan ran forward and backward for fear that the old and the young would be lost.
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were leisurely, following behind slowly, chatting and walking.
Zhan Zhao was very interested in the Xingtian, and Bai Yutang told him some legends about the ship.
"Cat, Taste" At this time, Xiao Sizi suddenly ran back and handed a skewer of grilled chicken wings to Zhanzhao's mouth.
Zhanzhao took a bite of "woo", "oh" "It's delicious," the little four sons pointed to a stall in front of him as if offering a treasure, "Bone chicken wings" Zhan Zhao took his hand and ran over to buy it, a group of people joined in the fun, eating barbecue around the stall, and sure enough, the owner of the stall was an acquaintance of Zhan Zhao.
Tianzun took chicken wings to look at calligraphy and paintings at a painting stall, Bai Yutang was not interested in eating, so he stood outside the painting stall and waited to pay Tianzun.
There are a lot of people running around the streets, especially small children.
Bai Yutang didn't like a lot of people, so he let it go to the periphery of the crowd.
The fifth master retreated to the mouth of an alley outside the painting stall, feeling that it was finally cleaner, and just stood still, suddenly two children rushed out of the alley, couldn't dodge, and hit it.
Bai Yutang could naturally get out of the way easily, but these two children didn't know why they ran so fiercely, there were many people and cars outside, and he might rush out and hit the cars or others as soon as he let go.
So, the fifth master stretched out his hand and gently blocked it.
Among them, the child who was running in front suddenly dragged the child behind him and flashed, trying to bypass Bai Yutang.
The fifth master raised his eyebrows slightly, his kung fu is good, he is very agile, but "Oops" The kid bypassed Bai Yutang, but he didn't pay attention to a raised brick on the ground, stumbled, and fell to the ground.
The kid behind him pounced.
Bai Yutang looked at the two little dolls that fell together like arhats, and thought it was quite interesting.
But the footsteps and shouts that followed in the alley were not so interesting.
Bai Yutang looked up, and saw three men with knives running out of the alley, wearing uniform clothes, it should be from a certain Jianghu sect.
It was clear that they were chasing the two kids.
The fifth master was a little puzzled, and chased the two children with a knife At the same time, footsteps could be heard behind him.
Bai Yutang turned around, and saw that the way the two children were about to escape was also blocked, blocking the way with the four big men wearing the same clothes as the pursuers, holding knives in their hands.
Bai Yutang frowned slightly, and subconsciously looked at the two children.
If you look closely, the one running in front is a girl, dressed in men's clothes, dressed as a warrior, and holding a short knife in her hand.
She is petite, and this kind of girl is not easy to distinguish age, maybe eleven or twelve But the other boy she was running with was obviously only seven or eight years old, and he was short in stature.
The two children were wearing old clothes, covered in mud, gray and bruised, apparently fleeing for their lives.
The boy was carrying a long stick-like thing in his arms, wrapped in a strip of blue cloth, almost taller than he was.
Bai Yutang glanced at the shape of the strip of cloth and knew that it should be a knife.
The two children waited to get up and found that there was no way to escape, and at the same time they looked at Bai Yutang who was halfway down the road like a wooden pestle, if it wasn't for the fifth master blocking the way and causing them to fall, it is estimated that they would not have been caught.
Bai Yutang also looked down at the two of them, and the two sides looked at each other.
The little girl was stunned for a moment, and suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed at Bai Yutang, "Knife in the clouds" The fifth master was also stunned for a moment, and then realized that the little girl was not referring to him, but to the knife in his hand.
The pursuers were relieved to see that they had caught someone, and the two children had been chasing them all morning, jumping up and down like rabbits, and they couldn't stop them at all.
I finally blocked it, and I found a person standing in the middle.
A few martial artists raised their eyes and gasped, isn't this Bai Yutang knowing that there is going to be trouble.
Bai Yutang was also wondering, the little girl suddenly grabbed the hem of his clothes, "Help" The fifth master raised his eyebrows to help The little girl pointed to the pursuers, "human traffickers" Bai Yutang turned his face to look, and several pursuers opened their mouths wide, and they were about to shake their heads, when they felt someone poke their shoulders behind them.
As soon as everyone turned around, they saw Zhanzhao holding three skewers of roast chicken wings in one hand, nibbling on a mouthful of oil, standing there tilting his head and asking, "You are the legendary human traffickers":
