Zhao Ning guessed right, his whereabouts are fixed and easy to check, so even if he didn't say who his mentor was, other people can quickly find out if they want to.

But he didn't expect someone to quietly target Gu Jingyun so soon.

During the five days of waiting for Qiu Wei, Gu Jingyun experienced being deliberately bumped into on the street, poured tea when drinking tea, and even passing by a restaurant where the window fell from the sky. If Li Baolu was not by his side, then he would definitely Can't hide.

It is precisely because of these frequent accidents that Zhao Ning was sure that the Croton incident last time was aimed at Gu Jingyun.

Zhao Ning is not a vegetarian, he has always been popular, and his father has earned him a large family business, not short of money, so he generously spread the money and found out the cause and effect.

The people who came back from him that day were very angry. They felt that Bai had made friends with Zhao Ning. He obviously had a good teacher to teach him, but he hid it and refused to say it clearly, so he went back to the inn and found someone else to vent.

Of course, they didn't say that they also wanted to take this opportunity to consult with that good teacher, but they just hinted that Zhao Ning***** would look down on poor students like them.

He does not mean that.

The inn was originally a communication base for students, and the candidates who wanted to refer to it all lived in this area. Candidates from various inns, even those who did not stay in the inn, would visit each other to communicate.

Naturally, they paid special attention to a few candidates who were particularly good and expected to win the championship.

Zhao Ning was already popular for living with the chief case last year, and his progress during this period was particularly noticeable. Anyone who cared about him couldn't help but check, and the problem could be seen immediately after checking.

Zhao Ning's schedule is very regular. When he goes out, he either goes for a walk with Gu Jingyun and his wife, or goes to the inn, or goes to the bookstore. There is no such thing as a good teacher.

Then there is only one possibility for his progress——that good teacher is Gu Jingyun who lives with him.

Gu Jingyun is the head of the court examination case, although it can also be feared, but because of his young age, several "old" candidates who feel that they are well-learned don't take him seriously. The college exam is different. If the college exam can still test memory and win, then the township exam is completely about experience and knowledge.

But Zhao Ning's progress is disturbing. There is a difference between being able to test and being able to teach.

If Gu Jingyun can teach Zhao Ning well, it means that he not only knows how to memorize books, but also his experience and vision can definitely be compared with that of a "good teacher".

The annual provincial examinations are bloody and bloody. It is not uncommon for candidates with extraordinary ability to be dismissed in advance, as long as you can do it without showing any traces, or you can have a scapegoat if you are caught.

Usually, those who dare to do this cannot be ordinary people without power or influence. For example, the one who did this this time is Ou Dunyi, the nephew of Lord Wupin Tongju.

The first time he failed, but the second time he was in the 129th place. Every year, a prefecture selects 300 candidates. His grades were just above average. He could have gone for the general examination. At the age of 33, he won the examination. Not old, but talented.

He himself thought the same way, so he wanted to get a better ranking and review more, and it would be best if he could enter the top row of the second class when he was admitted for Jinshi.

His uncle was eighty-ninth in the provincial examination, but he was ranked in the top three in the general examination, and he failed to make further progress in the palace examination, and was selected as a fellow Jinshi.

With a Jinshi, he is like a concubine. His uncle spent all his wealth to find a county magistrate, and he was promoted to the fifth rank general judge after nearly 20 years of ups and downs in the officialdom. At present, the fifth rank is the limit. .

He didn't want to follow his uncle's old path. He knew that the more than one hundred people in Guangzhou would not be ranked well if they went to the capital, so he didn't take the general examination. This kind of reputation is also better, so I can ask for an official when the time comes.

But he didn't expect that this year's competition would be even fiercer than three years ago, and there would be a genius.

Ou Dunyi was worried. When the results came out, he was full of confidence. He felt that he would definitely do better in the test again, so he didn't go to get the test certificate. Normally, the ceremony room will notify the candidates again under such circumstances, and the test results will be invalidated if they are not received after the due date... …

A red light flashed in Ou Dunyi's eyes, these so-called geniuses shouldn't take part in this year's provincial examination...

At this time, Zhao Ning, who followed the clues to Oufu, was also furious, "Can the son of the judge do whatever he wants?"

"Does his uncle know?" Li Baolu hit the nail on the head.

Gu Jingyun directly came to a conclusion, "Someone is giving advice to Ou Dunyi. He is just a clown. He wants to use this method. He has already used it in the previous two sessions, so he won't wait until now."

"How do you know that he was useless in the previous two exams?" Zhao Ning said angrily, "There are quite a few candidates who fail to take reference due to accidents every year, maybe he did it."

"You found Oufu after only a few days. Do you think he will be a habitual offender? If you can find out, those students who were killed will naturally be able to find out too. And Ou Dunyi has nothing to do so far, which means that the previous two sessions have nothing to do with it. He has nothing to do with it." Gu Jingyun pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Leave this matter to Baolu, we will enter the examination room tomorrow, and we will know who is the mastermind when we come out."

Li Baolu nodded again and again, comforting Zhao Ning, "You can enter the examination room at ease, I will not let anyone who hurts us go."

Zhao Ning looked at her small body suspiciously.

Li Baolu pinched the teacup in her hand and asked, "Are you sure you want me to show off my strength?"

Gu Jingyun twitched the corners of his mouth, patted her hand lightly and said: "One less teacup and the whole set of tea sets will be unusable, don't waste everything."

"It's because you guys are too particular." Li Baolu muttered.

It was only then that Zhao Ning remembered Li Baolu's display of strength in the past two days. He couldn't help but wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and nodded repeatedly: "There's no need to show it, I believe you."

"Since you believe me, go back to sleep. We will go to the battlefield tomorrow, boy, are you all ready?" Li Baolu encouraged everyone excitedly.

Gu Jingyun was calm and self-restraining, not flattering at all, while Zhao Ning looked up at the big sun above his head, and rejected her kindness, "I'd better sleep at night, thank you for your kindness."

"Cut, it's boring." Li Baolu had no choice but to leave the two of them behind and prepare for them what they would bring the next day.

The pens, ink, papers and inkstones in the test basket were prepared early in accordance with the test requirements, and what Li Baolu wanted to prepare for them were medicine and food.

Qiuwei is on the fourth day of August. After the exam, you can pass the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the ranking will be released as soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival is over.

At this time, Guangzhou was still sweltering, and staying in a numbered room where one’s legs could not be straightened would not only cause mosquito bites, but also heatstroke.

So Li Baolu prepared mosquito repellents for them, as well as Huoxiangzhengqi water. If they couldn't bring pills in, they could have prepared more medicines.

Also because of the heat, the food they need to prepare needs to be resistant to storage. Zhao Ning was born as a young master, and even the flint was learned by Li Baolu in the past few days, let alone cooking, so all the food prepared for him is durable. Stored small steamed buns, small biscuits.

The steamed bun is only the size of a thumb, but it can smash a bun out of a person's head, and the small sesame cakes are placed one after another, which can flatten a person's face.

Zhao Ningfang bit his mouth and almost jumped his teeth, he was dumbfounded, "How do you eat this thing?"

"Boil the water and put it in to cook. It's ready to eat when it's soft." Li Baolu put a can of mustard greens and a can of dried day lily in the basket, and said, "I've chopped these things into pieces for you. Turn around Just put a little in. I wanted to bring you a few eggs. Later, you can cook them yourself by adding plain water. It is delicious and nutritious. But it is said that a genius in Hunan last year put the cheat sheet in the eggs and brought it into the examination room, so Eggs are also listed as being rejected by the examination room this year, so you can just eat them."

Zhao Ning pouted aggrievedly, "Who is that genius?"

"It's said that he was beheaded. If you want to see him, you'll probably have to look for him underground." Li Baolu gave him his two test baskets and said, "Check it again, put it in the study if there's no problem, and go on the road tomorrow morning. "

Shun Xin said weakly from the side: "Madam Gu, the word going on the road is unlucky..."

Zhao Ning didn't look at his own, and hooked his head to look at Gu Jingyun's test basket, and found that only two cans of vegetables in his food basket were the same as his, and the others were different, so he was immediately dissatisfied, "Why is mine different from Brother Gu's Same?"

"My elder brother Jingyun can cook, can you?"

Zhao Ning got an arrow in his chest.

"My elder brother Jingyun can also make dim sum, can you?"

Zhao Ning squatted down clutching his chest.

Li Baolu ran up to Gu Jingyun's side with a test basket, and said, "You have a bad stomach. If you're hungry, cook porridge. I'll wrap some flour for you. If you're tired of porridge, we can make pimple soup. We can take it with you." The dishes that go in are limited, so you just settle for a while, and I'll make chicken soup for you when you come out."

Zhao Ning lay down directly, his stomach is also very weak!

Shunxin hurriedly comforted his young master, "Sir, when you come out, I will order you a big meal from Zhenxiu Restaurant."

"You pay?" Zhao Ning turned to look at him.

"..." Shun Xin gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and said: "As long as the young master can go to high school, the young one is willing to pay." At worst, he will ask the master to reimburse him after returning home.

Zhao Ning revived with full blood, "Then I'll go read a book and go to bed early at night."

Go to bed early and get up early so that you can queue up to enter the examination room early. Zhao Ning was so nervous that he stayed up half the night, and was woken up by Li Baolu early in the morning.

Li Baolu served them Jidi porridge, and they ate half a bowl, and then stuffed with small steamed buns, they were so hungry.

Zhao Ning was about to get into the carriage with his test basket, but Li Baolu grabbed his collar and said, "Let's walk."

"Why?" Zhao Ning was puzzled, "It only takes a quarter of an hour to take a carriage." It takes at least a quarter of an hour to walk, right?

"It's just to hire a car after leaving the alley. This carriage is now a bait."

Zhao Ning was silent for a while before following up with the test basket.

They didn't go out along the alley, but turned into another alley before going out. They hired a mule cart outside and went to the examination room.

There are many examinees living in this area, so there are quite a few drivers who have driven their cars to do business with the examinees. Li Baolu and the others had gone out early. Instead, many coachmen stopped.

But few passing candidates waved.

Li Baolu and the others quickly hired one. At the same time, Shunxin opened the gate, removed the threshold, drove the carriage out, and drove out of the gate to the alley. The cook waved from behind, " Young Master and Young Master Gu must go to high school."

When the carriage left the alley, the people guarding in the dark were startled and immediately followed quietly.
