Nightwatcher Chapter 49: Reluctant to chop your head
Genius remembers this site address in one second: []The fastest update! No ads!
"The 460th, Yang Zhen, a student of the Imperial College. The 459th, Li Zhuming, a native of Hushui County, Qingzhou..."
The clerk standing under the "wall of fame" sang the charts loudly, and the moment he spoke, the original noisy sound suddenly quieted down.
Thousands of students listened with their ears erected. When they heard their name, they cried with joy or screamed.
"Jiro, why haven't you heard your name?" Auntie was a little anxious.
"Mother, this is only over a hundred." Xu Lingyue soothed: "Didn't you say that the second brother is Huiyuan."
The aunt stared at her daughter, and the dead girl dared to tease her.
"Jiro, I haven't reached you yet."
When she was fifty or so, the aunt became even more anxious and frowned.
"Wait." Xu Erlang frowned.
At the top ten, my aunt turned pale, feeling that her son was about to fall out of the rankings.
Xu Xinnian's eyes showed anxiety and a little excitement. This is the trend of benevolence if you fail to succeed. Thinking of the song "Difficulties on Roads" by his eldest brother and his usual accumulation, Erlang still feels a little emboldened.
Finally, when the chant was sung, I remembered: "Jinke Huiyuan, Xu New Year, a student of Yunlu Academy, a native of Beijing."
There was a "boom" in my aunt's ear, as if Jiao Lei exploded, her whole body trembled fiercely.
The sound of "Jiao Lei" also blew into the ears of thousands of students, and the ears of the surrounding beaters. Their first thought was: Impossible!
It is impossible for the students of Yunlu Academy to become Huiyuan. The Confucian orthodox struggle has lasted for two hundred years. The students of Yunlu Academy have been suppressed in the officialdom. This is an indisputable fact.
Under such a background, how could Huiyuan be a student of Yunlu Academy?
The last scholar at Yunlu Academy who became "Huiyuan" was a layman in Ziyang twenty years ago. But who is Ziyang Lay?
That's a fourth-ranked scholar.
Twenty years later, he became the Huiyuan, and even the champion, it is completely reasonable and reasonable. He is a dragon.
But, another way of thinking, this scholar, who also came from Yunlu Academy, smashed a **** path among thousands of troops and became Huiyuan.
Does it mean that he also has great scholarship?
For a time, many people were shocked.
These people are the wealthy, or literati class, who are in the bottom of the list.
There have been sons-in-laws under the list since ancient times. In the Yuanjing year of Dafeng, although it is not popular, there are still many families who guard the apricot list to find son-in-law.
Waiting for is a scholar with outstanding qualifications and talents, such as the current "Huiyuan" Xu New Year.
Taking a son-in-law under the list is a joke. The big family guards the apricot list, and when they look at the scholar, they send someone to the home to talk about matchmaking and fight for time.
Once the matchmaking is successful, the marriage will be settled. If others want to grab it, it will not be grabbed.
In the era when the etiquette is more important than the sky, it is not about the pressure of the elders of the teacher and the elders to disperse a grain of gas, saying that the marriage is destroyed. Unless you don't want a beautiful future.
"Who is Xu Xinnian?"
"Who is Master Xu New Year?"
In the crowd, there are inquiries from time to time.
A student turned his head and looked around. He saw Xu Xinnian with a dull face, and immediately shouted: "Farewell, congratulations. Xu Xinnian is there."
Hula la..... It was not the students who rushed over first, but the people who intended to catch the top of the list, and surrounded Xu Xinnian with obedience.
"Can Xu Huiyuan have a marriage? There is a daughter in the official family, twenty-eight years old, beautiful and beautiful. I would like to marry the son as his wife."
"There are also unmarried daughters in the official family, who are proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."
Xu Xinnian backs away again and again.
Chun'er stepped on his feet and looked at it for a moment, and said with joy: "It's really interesting to catch the bottom of the list, miss, I didn't expect Hui Yuan to be that handsome scholar."
The voice fell, and the curtains suddenly lifted. The temperament is gentle, and the cheeks are some baby fat. The sweet and hidden Miss Wang looked around for a moment and said:
"Chun'er, go back."
On this side, Xu New Year has never seen such a battle, frowning.
Just as he was about to breathe fragrance and drink away this group of ignorant things, he suddenly saw a few people from the rivers and lakes pouring up maliciously, rushing against the "protective wall" formed by the sect, in order to take advantage of his mother and sister.
The aunt and Lingyue screamed in terror after being forced to back down again and again.
"Stop!"
Xu Erlang shouted.
But it's useless, he can't stop so many people.
"Oh, such a spoiled rogue, not capable, but fishing in troubled waters is great." The middle-aged swordsman saw this scene from a distance, quite disdainful.
But he didn't care too much. This little chaos would soon be stopped by the guards and the officers and soldiers, but the two beautiful women might be frightened.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a deafening sound exploded. This time it was not a psychological thunder explosion, but a real thunder explosion. Thousands of people present were dizzy and tinnitus bursting.
The riot ceased all at once.
On the wall of the Gongyuan, there is a young man wearing a bailiff's uniform and embroidered with a silver gong. He pressed the knife with one hand, and his gaze swept across the group of gangsters who were making trouble.
At the same time, officers and soldiers and guards squeezed out the crowd and finally arrived.
At the moment when she saw Xu Qi'an, the aunt was relieved, as if she was dependent, and the mother and daughter were relieved.
"Take those troublemakers away." Xu Qi'an pointed out several people from the rivers and lakes one by one, and several gongs around immediately went up to get people.
The students underneath recognized Xu Qi'an and were quite surprised, shouting: "It's Xu Shikui!"
"Meet Xu Shikui!"
Many students in the capital greeted them with a respectful attitude, as if they were meeting their seniors and teachers.
In fact, Xu Qi'an really deserves this kind of treatment. With his few masterpieces handed down, even if he is an arrogant scholar, he dare not show arrogance in front of him.
But the foreign students didn't know Xu Qi'an's identity, and called him a watchman, which was quite disdainful at first, but the attitude of the Jingcheng scholars made them realize that this young silver gong's identity was unusual.
"Xiongtai, who is this person? I'm so public, just looking at it as a martial artist."
"You don't know him...Oh, you are not from the capital. This adult is named Xu Qi'an, Xu Qi'an who is scented in the moonlight."
"...It turned out to be him. He is indeed a man of talent and extraordinary craftsmanship. He is truly admired when he is a dragon and a phoenix."
Now, foreign students will know who he is. Xu Qi'an still has a lot of "illegitimate meals". By virtue of his copied poems, he has gained a large number of fans in the Dafeng scholar group.
For a while, No Mathematics greeted him, shouting "Xu Shikui".
"It's so majestic..." Xu Lingyue murmured.
"Really majestic..."
In the distance, Miss Rongrong looked at the young man on the wall with admiration in her eyes.
"Obviously I am the protagonist..." Xu Xinnian whispered.
…………
Xu New Year not only won the Gong Shi, but also the Gong Shi's head: Hui Yuan!
This is something the whole family did not expect.
My aunt was as happy as Fan Jin in a women's dress, and almost fainted with her eyelids rolled.
The second uncle was also very happy, and decided to hold a banquet at home, and invited his clan and colleagues over for a drink. Now the Xu family is generous, and there is no pressure on the running water table for three days and nights.
After eating lunch, Xu Erlang put down his chopsticks, looked at Xu Qi'an, and said, "Big Brother, will you still visit the streets today?"
Xu Qi'an shook his head.
He is a silver gong, and patrolling the streets is usually based on mood, not mandatory. Moreover, now that the apricot list has been unveiled, thousands of students go back to their homes and find their mothers. The pressure on public security is not as great as in the morning.
Xu Erlang nodded, got up, raised one hand on his abdomen, and one hand behind his back, and said lightly: "Then eldest brother will work harder and help me guard the door. There must be annoying flies in the afternoon, and I will never see it! "
This posture usually appears on respected old masters or officials.
Hey, this little brother is still pretending...Xu Qi'an's mouth twitched.
Xu Xinnian's arrogant character is inherited from her aunt. However, the poison tongue attribute was created by him, and his aunt's skill in cursing was very ordinary, otherwise he would not be yelled at by Xu Qi'an.
Xu Qi'an returned to the room and sat at the desk, worrying about Xu Erlang's future.
"The second man got the Huiyuan. This is something I didn't expect. Next, there will be a palace exam in a month. After the palace exam, the back hand I planted can be used (Zhao Langzhong, Department of Literary Selections) .........
"Remaining in the capital is only the first step. If you want Jiro to become a useful person to me, you have to find him a backer. Otherwise, with his status as a student of Yunlu Academy, he will spend his entire life in Qingshui Yamen. ........
"Wei Gong is not the Yushi of the Procuratorate anymore, and I don't know if such an important position can be returned. However, Erlang cannot rely on Wei Yuan and cannot have anything to do with him, otherwise he will be like me. Branded with "eunuch party".
"Eggs can't be put in a basket. I must find a way to find a backer for him, so that in the future, our brothers will have the hope that the two can be combined and dominate the court."
Xu Qi'an has said before that he should train Xu Xinnian to be the first assistant. This is of course a joke, but he does have the idea of "promoting" Xu Erlang.
After experiencing so many things and offending so many people, this idea became clearer and deeper.
First of all, Xu Erlang's own talents are very good, he follows the orthodox Confucian system, and his scheming methods are not bad. After several years of officialdom, he is definitely a **** teammate.
But the drawbacks of the orthodox Confucian origin are also obvious-a child without a mother!
"Princess Huaiqing is a female stream. I suspect she has secretly cultivated influence, but what Erlang wants is a solid backing, not an underground party.
"As for the prince, I broke up with the mother-in-law of Chen Fei after the Fu Fei case, so the prince did not consider it. Moreover, the prince's rank was too low to be worthy of my family Erlang. For the same reason, the fourth prince also passed."
After going through his mind, he found that there was no suitable backer in the civil service group.
Huh...Forget it, it's not urgent. After the palace trial, Erlang’s affairs will come to an end for the time being. The next thing I have to watch out for is the Buddhist messenger group and the dispute between Li Miaozhen and Chu Yuanzhen. Trouble, Xu Qi'an pinched his eyebrows and whispered:
"For me, it is most important to be promoted to the Bronze and Iron Bone Realm as soon as possible."
He washed his face and left the house. Xu Yinluo is arranging Wanji, so there is no time for Xu Erlang to guard the door.
Riding on the little mare, carrying the two novels written by Zhong Lima, Xu Qian entered the imperial city quickly and took out the waist jade given by Lin'an. Under the leadership of Yu Linwei, he came to Shaoyinyuan.
For Xu Qi'an's sudden visit, Lin'an said he was very happy and asked the maid to serve the dog minions with the best tea and the most delicious pastries.
"How is your Royal Highness?" Xu Qi'an asked.
Lin'an sighed, the peach blossom eyes were not charming, and her head was downcast: "My mother and concubine cried with me every day, saying that I was bullied by the queen in the harem, and I couldn't live anymore."
Where are the people behind Concubine Chen, don’t they help?...Well, Concubine Chen is a qualified little expert in Gongdou, so she shouldn’t be so bad, she should deliberately pretend to be pitiful in front of Lin'an. I want to try a curve to save the country....... Xu Qi'an is surprised:
"The queen deceived people too much, your Highness, just watched Concubine Chen suffer humiliation in the harem?"
"Then I can't beat Huaiqing, and I don't think the mother concubine is as miserable as she said." She said aggrieved.
"You are looking for your majesty." Xu Qi'an tentatively said.
"You go down first." Lin'an waved back the palace lady.
The hall was quiet, and no one spoke for a long time.
"Dog minion..."
She gave a weak cry.
"Well, your highness, you said."
"When the prince brother was imprisoned in Dali Temple, I went to beg my father, but my father did not see me, so I stood in the cold for two hours, and Huaiqing drove me back... ..."
Lin'an lowered his head sadly, some inferiority little beasts, "At that time, I thought, maybe my father didn’t love me that much. After the prince’s accident, my brothers and sisters stopped playing with me. They don’t really like me..."
She raised her eyebrows, her clear and charming peach eyes were dim and she hung her head slightly. Where is the princess, she is clearly an aggrieved and poor girl.
Xu Qi'an knew that this was because the trust of His Highness Lin'an was overwhelming, so he let off the pride of the princess in front of him and showed it, but it was a girl who was not too stupid, but not smart.
These things have been held in her heart for a long time...at least she realized this reality after the prince’s accident...but she didn’t show it, she still maintained her princess’s proud.
Until the Fufei case was over, she later realized the truth behind the case... What was her mood at that time? Sad, helpless, disappointed?
The princess looks coquettish and willful, but she is actually a fierce-looking paper tiger. She will only yell when she is wronged, and she silently accepts the grievances that really hurt her heart.
In essence, she is actually a submissive woman. She is beautiful, but she is also strong on the outside.
Lin'an's eyes gradually blurred, and she felt much better in these words. Although the dog slave could not give her anything, he even hesitated to help her hold justice in front of Huaiqing, but he could offend Huaiqing for himself. Lin'an was already very happy.
Suddenly, a hand was placed on her head and rubbed.
Lin'an raised his head in surprise, only to realize that the dog slave didn't know when he had walked to his side, and his eyes had no choice but to mourn his misfortune and hate him.
"His Royal Highness, I will be with you."
Lin'an's face blushed a little, and she said, "You, don't touch my head...I will be angry."
Xu Qi'an rebelliously violated the order of the princess, rubbed vigorously, and messed up his hair.
Lin'an opened his peach blossom eyes vigorously and stared at him, seeming to use the majesty of her princess to push back the dog minion. But although her eyes are charming and passionate, they are really not lethal.
Lin'an lowered his head again.
Well~IndoMTL.com~ To deal with girls with this personality, proper domineering and stalking is the best way........I may be stabbed by a sword if I change to Huaiqing Dead.......
The ambiguous atmosphere fermented between them.
Xu Qi'an withdrew his hand in time, took out the script of "The Great Sage of Love" from his arms, placed it in front of Lin'an, and said with a smile:
"This is a book occasionally obtained by a humble post. It is very interesting. The princess likes to listen to stories, and I will definitely like to read it. But don't say that I gave it."
Lin'an's attention was immediately attracted by "The Great Sage of Love".
"If you feel that staying in the palace is boring, you might as well move to Lin'an Mansion, so that you can play with you every day in the humble position, and you can secretly take you outside."
After a few conversations, he left.
"Xu Qi'an!"
Lin'an yelled to him, bulging his cheeks, threatening fiercely: "Today's matter must not be spread, otherwise, otherwise..."
I want to say "Otherwise, I will chop your head", but I feel a little bit reluctant.
"I see." Xu Qi'an said.
.........
Xu Qi'an left Shaoyinyuan and said to Yu Linwei, "If the officer wants to see the princess, you will lead me."
"This is not in compliance." Yu Linwei shook his head.
"I can go outside the palace and wait, so it will be in compliance." Xu Qi'an calmly stuffed a twelve-dollar silver bill.
Yulinwei promised him, took Xu Qi'an and left the palace, let him wait outside the palace, and pass in by himself.
Without a stick of incense, Yu Linwei returned and said: "Princess Huaiqing would like to please."
Xu Qi'an picked up the corner of his mouth, stretched out his hand to press on his chest, and said to his heart, "Huaiqing, Huaiqing, see the power of the overbearing female president and the silly white sweet scholar.
It will definitely hit you on the spot.
