I was Idle and Cool Chapter 103: The person in front of you, the person in the sky
He's here?
It was unexpected.
Lu Jinxi's fingers stopped lightly, then pressed the pages back to the table, and said plainly, "Come in and talk."
"Thank you, mother."
Xue Tingzhi lowered his eyebrows and stepped into the room.
This is the study room.
Lu Jinxi was sitting behind the desk, wearing a pale yellow spring shirt, showing a snow-white wrist while holding the pen. Obviously there was a distance, but Xue Tingzhi saw the small red mole on the inside of her wrist at a glance.
At that moment, it was like being dazzled. In addition to being confused, I was also a little dazed.
"Sit."
Lu Jinxi noticed his little peculiarity, but the situation was special at the moment, so he didn't think about it elsewhere. He only knew the news of the reform of the imperial examination system when he was, no matter how old he was, he was a little embarrassed.
So he raised his hand and pointed to the chess table next to the wall, and told him to sit first.
If it is a warm pavilion where Su Ri lives, there are extra tables and chairs in it. But this study is said to belong to Xue Kuang, but in fact, Lu Jinxi has been using it all the time, and has not reserved a seat next to it.
The only place suitable for Xue Tingzhi to sit is here.
It was originally a square table, but at this time the original sapphire chessboard was removed and replaced with a black jade chessboard, which became a chess table.
Two carved mahogany lacquer round stools, placed on both sides.
Xue Tingzhi followed the direction of her finger and saw it clearly.
But after Yiyan sat down, he took a clear look at the chessboard on the table. In just a split second, his pupils shrunk, and something quickly floated up.
This black jade chessboard is actually carved from a single piece of black jade!
Round and smooth!
Clearly it's not a cheap thing, I'm afraid that even if you have money, you may not be able to get it. Not to mention, he suddenly remembered that Xue Chi once showed off, saying that his mother received a very precious gift, what kind of chessboard, and a Honglu sword that he liked very much...
From the Grand Master's Mansion, a gift from the eldest son of Gu.
What the Yuewei Museum saw and heard that day flashed in front of my eyes almost immediately. In a trance, someone called out "eldest son" in a trance, lingering in a trembling manner.
It was Lu Jinxi at one time, and Xiangzhi at another time.
At this moment, Xue Tingzhi's stomach was churning, and he felt a kind of filth and nausea.
"Eldest son?"
Lu Jinxi, who had just come over after the book case, was a little strange when he saw that he looked bad, so he subconsciously expressed concern.
The light voice, melted as cold as the moon.
Wen Wen Ran, but not sweet at all.
There is no vibrato with a faint panting, nor a low-pitched voice that can make people feel infinite...
Then he wakes up again.
When she raised her eyes to look at Lu Jinxi, she saw that she was looking at herself with some doubts. Although she was a little concerned, she was definitely showing affection and politeness, and did not reach the bottom of her eyes.
Etiquette is an insurmountable gap.
Even if he breaks through the heavy shackles and difficulties in the future and returns to the position he deserves, the people in front of him can only be people from heaven.
For the rest of her life, she will never be able to kiss Fangze.
Not to mention, she secretly has some indistinguishable beginnings and endings with the well-known "eldest son" Gu in Daxia...
"Only when I learned about the reform of the imperial examination system, Ting Zhi's heart was shaking. It was difficult for him to calm down for a long time, and he was a little dazed. He also asked his mother to forgive me." He chose to take the initiative to explain, and the reason was exactly what Lu Jinxi would believe. .
Lu Jinxi thought so too, so she didn't care much.
After all, the cause of this incident was Xue Tingzhi. Because of his original request, it led to a series of debates, and finally led to the reform of the imperial examination system.
Who changed, and not shocked by it?
She lightly flicked the hem of her clothes, sat opposite Xue Tingzhi, and said only: "The reform of the imperial examination system is really beyond my expectations. Now that it can be done, it is for you, for scholars, and for the world. , is a good thing. It's just that I don't need to thank me. After all, I'm just a bystander. If you really want to thank me, I'm afraid that you have to thank the eldest son Gu. If there is no other for him, I'm afraid It's a long way off."
Master Gu...
The palms that were folded on the knees were clenched quietly, and the deep hostility in Xue Tingzhi's heart slowly surfaced. At this moment, he was extremely disgusted with this person.
But he couldn't let Lu Jinxi see it.
Secretly, he sank into the bottom of his heart again under this hostile pressure. He actually found that the joy after learning about the reform of the imperial examination system had all been swept away and disappeared completely.
"Now that it's done, you've made a wish."
A maid came to serve tea, Lu Jinxi watched her put down the tea cup, but didn't bring it. When I turned to look, I saw Xue Tingzhi sitting silently opposite him, and there was no special reaction.
"Previously, you didn't have any fame and you wanted to participate in the imperial examination. According to the rules, you must start with the county examination and take the exam first. Have you ever been exposed to the policy and theory of the imperial examination before? What are your plans?"
"Tingzhi has already understood the theory of the imperial examination classics. This year, the county examination has not yet started in this area of the capital, so Tingzhi thinks..." When he said this, Xue Tingzhi paused, raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Jinxi , then continued, "The exam will begin this year."
Starting the exam this year?
This answer was actually expected by Lu Jinxi.
She is by no means a concubine who is willing to be in the pool, and she has a certain amount of knowledge. Although she doesn't know why he handed in a blank paper in the Yuewei Museum, she has a heart that yearns for fame and wealth. to be clear.
"It's fine to start the exam this year. There are not a few people who take the exam at your age, and you don't have an eye for it. After all, the next general exam will be three years later, and you will be the weakest year. Start a family. If you can achieve it together with Liye, you will not be able to live up to the great general's careful cultivation of you."
Lu Jinxi smiled slightly as she spoke.
Xue Tingzhi felt more and more uncomfortable when he heard her words.
Start a family...
Is that what she wanted to kick him out of the house?
While my emotions are floating, I don't want to sit in this study for even a moment!
He pursed his lips, and a strange blood color appeared on his pale face. In the eyes of others, he is like an ordinary young man, showing a little shyness because his elders mentioned his life-long events.
But there was no embarrassment in his eyes.
Lu Jinxi asked again: "What about studying and going to school? Do you want to invite a gentleman to the mansion alone, or find a school outside, or go to an academy?"
There are academies all over Daxia, but some are famous and some are not.
Of course there are in Beijing too.
Jixia Academy is not very famous, but after all, under the feet of the emperor, it is not far behind. The gentlemen inside are basically among the first-class, and most of them are hired with a lot of money. It is a pity that most of the students are born in powerful families, and it is difficult to carve out rotten wood.
Lu Jinxi had heard about the situation here, but she expected that Xue Tingzhi would not be clear, so she asked briefly, just to see what Xue Tingzhi thought.
After asking, he stared at him.
Xue Tingzhi obviously did not expect that she would ask her opinion directly, and was slightly startled for a while.
After a while, he raised his head and looked directly at Lu Jinxi, then stood up, bowed to her again, and said slowly, "Tingzhi, I want to go to the school."
I really chose the academy...
This time, it was Lu Jinxi's turn to be confused: "Which academy do you want to go to?"
"If my parents are here, I don't want to travel far. There is a way to travel. There is no place in the court, and my mother is there, so I don't dare to travel far. I heard that there is Jixia Academy in Beijing. >
The voice is calm and coherent.
It's almost like I've thought about it countless times in my heart.
Lu Jinxi laughed and did not interfere with any of his decisions, only said: "Since you have already made arrangements for your future, I won't say anything more. Jixia Academy has nothing to study, I'm afraid You can enter with your eyes closed, and the important thing is not here. The atmosphere of this academy is very bad. Before you go, you should understand it clearly. I heard that the entrance examination will be in ten days. You just have to worry about it.”
"Yes."
Like a punch into the cotton.
Xue Tingzhi knew that she would not object to any of his decisions on this matter, so he said these words; but when she really didn't ask a word, he felt empty and uncomfortable, and he could only A low reply.
Such a short word really does not reveal any emotion.
Since he knew that Xue Tingzhi had used Xiangzhi, Lu Jinxi lost his vigilance a little bit, but he only thought that those strange things he was "knowing **** and adoring Shaoai" were the budding he should have at his age.
I can't notice anything now, let alone that he is going to study in the academy, and there is nothing to be vigilant about.
So, Lu Jinxi is very relaxed.
She originally intended to leave Xue Tingzhi to say a few words, especially the situation in the court this time, to remind him a little. But out of the corner of his eyes, he saw the figure of Qingque outside the door.
I think Pan Quan'er has gone outside.
The matter of asking Ji Heng to be Mr., she still remembers it, and after a little weighing, she said to Xue Tingzhi: "I still have some things to take care of here, so I won't leave you to talk. Anyway, there are still a few days to wait. When you are going to take the Jixia Academy exam, I will discuss it with you in detail. You go back first and take care of the current affairs. I think you will be busy for a while.”
"Yes, that court will retire first."
When the mother-in-law spoke, Xue Tingzhi naturally had no reason to refute, but something was pressing down in his heart, which made him feel really uncomfortable.
Almost subconsciously, he glanced at it as he went out.
The newly promoted Pan Quan'er by Lu Jinxi was standing outside the yard, holding a new collection of poems and essays in his hand. He couldn't see the person who wrote the book at a glance, but plainly, a name popped up in his mind——
Ji Heng.
He mentioned it when he was outside the study door and listened to Lu Jinxi's instructions to Qingque.
Seeing him coming out, Pan Quan'er hurriedly bowed and saluted him, shouting "I have seen the eldest son".
Xue Tingzhi nodded slowly and walked over, but he had secretly remembered the name of Ji Heng and the name of this poetry collection in his heart.
After a while, his back disappeared.
Pan Quan'er felt a little chilly for some reason.
He seldom came into contact with this eldest son of a concubine, but when he saw him today, he only felt that there was a tinge of energy in him, and a pair of peach blossom eyes concealed a dim light, which made people tremble.
In the end, he was taught by the general himself, and it is really different from ordinary people.
"Tell Pan Quan'er to come in and talk."
Lu Jinxi's voice came from inside the room.
Qing Que, who was waiting at the door, heard it, and waved to Pan Quan'er to let him go in and answer.
"Yes, the little one will meet his wife and greet her."
Pan Quan'er was clever and walked up and down, but only stopped in front of the bead curtain hanging outside, leaned over and bowed, and greeted Lu Jinxi.
Lu Jinxi didn't talk nonsense, just asked: "Is it true that Ji Heng came back from Jiangnan? Is there anything else in the past two days?"
"Report to Madam, it's true!"
Pan Quan'er heard that Qing Que had said that Lu Jinxi had taken a fancy to Ji Heng, and now she only raised her hands above her head with the poetry collection in her hand.
"Not only does this person want to return to the capital, but it is said that the ship has already arrived in Tongzhou, and he will be able to return to the capital tomorrow. He has no relatives or friends at home, and he has no right arm, so he can only write left-handed characters. Small guess, except for You, even if someone is willing to invite him, their status and status cannot be compared with our general's residence. This is a collection of poems and essays specially brought by Xiao, which he made when he was in the south of the Yangtze River, and is specially presented to you."
"Give it to me."
Lu Jinxi was interested, and only asked people to bring the poetry collection to herself. It turned out to be a rather thick book, and every one of them is full of talent when you open it, but there is a feeling of depression and unwillingness hidden between the words of joy.
"Since ancient times, the hero has suffered many hardships, but also has enough mistakes. He is a real person."
"Then let's invite him?"
Pan Quan'er asked quickly.
Lu Jinxi raised his eyes, but laughed angrily: "How easy is it to hire a literati with a strong character? Don't look at this person who seems to be down and out in the brothel, but the arrogance in the poetry is not diminished, by no means. If you want, you can get it. Since he arrives tomorrow, you should take someone to inquire about their residence in advance. If there is no place to live, you can entertain them. Find a good or bad mansion in the capital and give them to them. People live first. Then I will inquire later, but don’t ask people to come to visit the General’s Mansion. If he relaxes, I will visit him in person.”
"This..."
Isn't this too important?
Pan Quan'er was a little surprised, but after reacting to it, she suddenly understood, what's wrong with her? Madam has decided, how could he be able to put his beak?
So he quickly changed his words: "Yes, the little one will take someone to inquire about it, and make sure to handle this matter well."
Lu Jinxi didn't say much, nodded, waved his hand, and let him go.
I flipped through the collection of poems and essays in my hand for a while, but my interest in this Ji Heng was greatly increased.
Not long ago, it was already dark outside.
It wasn't until the egret came in to hold the lamp that she was shaken by the bright light, and then she suddenly came back to her senses, and suddenly asked, "It's already this hour. Brother Chi went to school at the Taishifu and hasn't come back yet?"
"The slave is about to tell you this."
The egret picked the wick with a silver hairpin to make it look brighter, then turned around with a smile and reported the news she had received earlier to Lu Jinxi.
"Someone from the eldest son said that he was busy with business affairs, so he took our young son to the mansion of Mr. Lu. It was said that he could not only handle the official affairs of the Fantang with the old man, but also take time to teach Teach my brother."
"Go to Lu Mansion?!"
As soon as Lu Jinxi heard this, he was so frightened that he lost his mind. His hand trembled with the eyelid, and he almost tore the page of poetry that he just turned over!
Weasels give New Year's greetings to chickens!
Gu Juefei actually took her cheap son to meet Lu's father and Xue Chi's grandfather under the guise of official business? Obviously not at ease!
She's a heart, and it's cold in an instant.
To finish.
This time, I'm afraid it's really over...
