"Sir!" The figure saw Mr. Hua sitting in the pavilion at a glance, paused slightly, and then quickly came to the pavilion.

"Your Excellency is here to find His Royal Highness King Duan, right?" Mr. Hua was not surprised by the figure's actions, on the contrary, he showed a faint smile.

"Some broken locks, I would like to ask His Royal Highness Duan Wang's opinion. The figure nodded.

"Can such a thing as the ranking of the court test be called a matter of locking up?" Mr. Hua's tone was calm, but there was a faint brilliance in his eyes.

The figure moved slightly, and then slowly took off the cloak covering his head, revealing a young face, which was Su Qing who was standing behind Prince Lin Tianrong during the palace examination.

Mr. said that Su was really admired, I don't know what Mr. thinks about this trial list, Su must follow Mr. to repent. Su Qing said as he saluted Mr. Hua.

"Lord Su is polite, I don't have a public position in the court, at best I am just a diner in the palace of His Royal Highness King Duan, how can I talk about repentance to adults, but I want to hear the high opinions of adults. Mr. Hua smiled slightly, but he did not return the courtesy.

"Sir has been working by His Royal Highness King Duan for several years, and has made countless contributions, how dare I talk about high-mindedness in front of Mr. for such a lowly public position? However, since Mr. asked, I will explain it bluntly, and I hope that Mr. can give advice!" Su Qing did not feel a trace of displeasure because of Mr. Hua's actions, and continued to bow respectfully.

"No need, His Royal Highness Duan Wang has been waiting in the study for a long time, please follow me in!" Mr. Hua waved his hand, and then walked towards the study first.

Su Qing looked at Mr. Hua's back and bowed his head slightly, just. There was a faint light in his eyes, and a subtle sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

......

In the study, Duan **** Xinjue did not sit on the chair, but paced back and forth in the study, frowning, as if thinking about something.

And at this very time. The door of the study was gently pushed open, and Mr. Hua stepped in with the food box in his hand, but he didn't take a second step, just stood quietly in front of the door, waiting for Su Qing to enter.

Su Qing walked to the door and stood side by side with Mr. Hua, also without going any further.

Duan **** Xinjue, who was pacing back and forth in the study, saw the two people who came in at a glance, and his eyes lit up: "Su Qing is here." Sit down, Mr. Hua is here too, come on, come in!"

Su Qing was just about to give in, but Mr. Hua had already turned around and closed the door, so he had no choice but to step into the room first, while Mr. Hua followed behind Su Qing and put the food box in his hand on the table. From beginning to end, not a word.

"This king is thinking about the matter of the court test and the list. The two of them came just in time, so let's share their opinions. After Duan **** Xinjue finished speaking, his eyes also subconsciously looked at Su Qing.

Su Qing did not push back at this time, but walked to the middle of the study, bowed down and bowed to Duan **** Xinjue: "With the power of a micro-minister, discuss the matter of setting the list for the court." It's really a bit arrogant, but since His Royal Highness King Duan asked, the minister said his opinion. ”

"Well, let's talk about it!" Duan **** Xinjue nodded. Finally sat back in his chair.

In fact, it represents the trust of the Holy Lord in His Royal Highness, but this matter is not as simple as it seems, not only involving the Sacred Heart, but also involving the struggle between the family in the court and the Hanmen, His Royal Highness's decision today actually represents the position he stands. ”

"That's right, and the king knows that. After hearing Su Qing's words, Duan **** Xinjue nodded slightly.

"What His Royal Highness Duan Wang has to do now is to choose and give!"

"How?"

"What does Your Highness think of the Sacred Heart?"

"Naturally, it's Yan Xiu. ”

"Yes, then Wei Chen dares to ask His Highness, which is more important in the dispute between the two parties in the court?"

"This must be a family, do you mean to let this king set the top of the court test to Yan Xiu?" Duan **** Xinjue frowned slightly when he heard this.

"His Royal Highness is the master of the court test, and Wechen has no opinion, but Wechen is worried, if this matter is really as simple as this, Presumably His Highness will not be worried, right?"

"That's right. ”

"Wei Chen wants to ask Mr. Hua to make a hypothesis, if His Royal Highness sets the top spot in this court test to Yan Xiu, what will be the result?" After Su Qing heard Duan **** Xinjue's words, he also turned his gaze to Mr. Hua, who was meditating on the side.

Mr. Hua was drinking tea by himself, and suddenly heard Su Qing's words, the teacup in his hand shook slightly, and then he took another sip unhurriedly.

"It seems that Lord Su has made up his mind about this matter, Hua Mou is stained, as Lord Su said, if His Royal Highness will give the top of the list of the court test to Yan Xiu, then the ministers will naturally think that His Royal Highness King Duan will conform to the will of the people, and the Holy Lord will also accept King Duan's proposal and give the top spot to Yan Xiu, but ......" Mr. Hua said later, and he didn't stop.

"Just how?"

"Most people ignore one point, and that is Yan Xiu's own thoughts. Mr. Hua's eyes lit up, which was a sign of extreme confidence.

"What Mr. Hua said is exactly what this king thinks, if Yan Xiu is determined, Yan Xiu himself does not follow, refuses to reason, I am afraid that things will backfire, but if it is directly determined to be upright, regardless of the king's unwillingness, from the perspective of the court situation, he will lose the sacred heart, chill the meaning of the children of the family, this king thinks about it, it is also a dilemma!" Duan **** Xinjue nodded.

"Your Highness sees that the plan is far-reaching, and it really makes the subordinates satisfied, as the saying goes, the dilemma is one of them, and the lesser of the two evils, why doesn't Your Highness avoid the important and light?" Su Qing spoke again at this time.

"Master Su thinks that these two, which is more important?" Duan **** Xinjue asked.

"On the surface, there is no difference between the two, but the deep meaning of avoiding the heavy is not in choosing the heavy, but in avoiding the word!"

"Oh, Lord Su, please speak!"

"The desire of the Sacred Heart is naturally known to everyone, but if it is a matter of facts, who does Your Highness think should be at the top of the list?" Su Qing did not speak immediately, but asked rhetorically.

"If it's a matter of facts, it should be...... Orthodox. Although Duan **** Xinjue was a little reluctant, he still admitted.

"That's right, Fang Zhengzhi created the history of the Great Xia Dynasty in the literary examination, and none of the six test papers were wrong. Even Chi Guyan and Nangong Hao did not have such brilliance in the literary examination, and in the martial arts examination, he dragged down Yan Xiu and fell at the same time with Yan Xiu's strength due to his lack of strength, and stunned Yan Xiu, which should be regarded as a square victory. Even if you take 10,000 steps back, this martial arts test can only be regarded as a draw at most. ”

"That's the truth. Duan **** Xinjue nodded.

"His Royal Highness forcibly designated Yan Xiu as the top of the list, naturally it is to obey the Sacred Heart, but the Sacred Heart has always been unpredictable, the power of the king, the most taboo is that the princes speculate on the Holy Will, although His Royal Highness's move is smooth, but it is dishonest, and the name of His Royal Highness is different. There are all kinds of harm and no benefit!" Su Qing said at the end, and his tone unconsciously increased.

"What does Mr. Hua think?" Duan **** Xinjue's face changed slightly, but he did not answer Su Qing's words immediately, but turned his head to look at Mr. Hua.

"What Lord Su said is exactly what I meant, but what Lord Su just said about an avoidance word made me a little confused. I don't know how Master Su is going to avoid the children of the family?" Mr. Hua turned his gaze to Su Qing at this time, with a hint of a smile on his face.

"That's what I'm here for!" Su Qing's face was full of confidence.

"What do you want about Lord Su?"

"The matter seems complicated. But in fact, it is very simple, His Highness only needs to use a little means to lead the matter to another person. ”

"Who?"

"Nine Emperor Princes!"

"Ninth brother? I see, the ninth brother is indeed the most suitable person to supervise the examination with this king this time, but I almost forgot about him. ”

......

Early in the morning of the second day. The sun is shining.

As the oldest teahouse in Yanjing City, Tingxianglou has always been a place where talented and beautiful people from all walks of life gather, especially during the morning tea time, people come and go, and there is an endless stream.

As for the most exquisitely decorated private room in the Tingxiang Building.

But not everyone has the ability to enter. However, for Pingyang, who is the hegemon of Yanjing City and is a party to blame, no one dares to mess with, this has never been a problem.

In the private room, Pingyang was wearing a bright red cloak, putting his two slender and round legs on the tea table at will, and gently pinching a piece of dim sum in his hand, slowly putting it into the pink mouth, and tasting it slowly.

On the opposite side of Pingyang, there was also a young man in Chinese clothes, cutting dim sum for Pingyang with a knife, while looking at Pingyang eating dim sum, his face full of anticipation.

It was none other than Lin Yun, the Nine Emperor Princes.

A prince and a princess sit in the Tingxiang Building to drink morning tea and eat snacks, which is a normal thing, but the appearance of the Nine Emperors at the moment is somewhat pitiful.

"Brother Jiu invited me to tea so early, and he specially brought my favorite dim sum, not just to chat with my sister, right?"

"Hehe, in fact, there is nothing to do, you know, at this time of year, talented people from all over the world have also flocked to Yanjing City, so ......"

"Oh, what's the fun?"

"In previous years, the gatherings were generally organized by all parties in Wen, but there were too many people who came to Yanjing City this year, and almost all of the top 20 people on the Shenglong list gathered, and even the father and emperor had to pay attention to it, so they ......."

"What's that?"

"I opened the hunting ground in the eastern suburbs, and I set a reward myself!"

"Eastern Suburbs Hunting Ground?hahaha...... That's fun, the reward that my father took out is definitely not an ordinary product, thank you Brother Jiu for telling me about this, I have to prepare it!"

"Hey, wait!" Lin Yun, the Nine Emperor Princes, immediately shouted as soon as he saw that Pingyang was about to get up.

"Brother Jiu still has something to do?"

"That, you know, those who came from various prefectures and cities have some family backgrounds, and the ninth brother has only a purple electric oolong horse in his hand, which is still ......" Lin Yun, the ninth prince, was a little speechless and stopped.

"No!" Pingyang refused without thinking about it.

"One day, can you borrow one day, I will pay you back as soon as I borrow it!" Lin Yun, the Nine Emperor Prince, looked depressed, this purple electric oolong horse was originally owned by him, but now he was reduced to borrowing it from Pingyang.

It's really embarrassing.

......

In a chicly renovated inn.

Fang Zhengzhi slept very comfortably this night, Imperial Doctor Li deserved to be Imperial Doctor Li, just one day, Fang Zhengzhi felt that the dragon spirit was fierce, and it seemed to have fully recovered.

As the saying goes, people are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry.

The first thing Fang Zhengzhi did after waking up was, of course, to find food, but before looking for food, he still decided to go and see Yan Xiu first.

Yan Xiu's room was next to him.

Of course, this is not an accident, but an inevitability, because the room that Fang Zhengzhi is sleeping in now is the one that Yan Xiu had booked for him in advance.

To paraphrase Yan Xiu's own words, he is not short of silver.

Fang Zhengzhi had always known this, but he was embarrassed to be polite to Yan Xiu.

The moment he walked out of the door, Fang Zhengzhi saw a burly bearded man standing at the door, with a solemn expression.

"Young Master Fang!" the bearded strong man saw Fang Zhengzhi coming out of the room, and immediately shouted respectfully.

He did not have the integrity of the other party to be commensurate with Lord Fang, not because his official position in the court was higher than that of Fang Zheng, but because he was also called Yan Xiu and Gongzi.

Of course, Fang Zhengcheng knows the person in front of him.

When he first met Yan Xiu, this person was by Yan Xiu's side, and then, when he was in Xinhe Mansion, he was also always with Yan Xiu.

It's just that since Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu walked together, the other party has disappeared, and if you see you today, Fang Zhengzhi can probably guess the reason for the other party's appearance in his heart.

"Uncle Tie!" Fang Zhengcheng didn't know the real name of the bearded man, he only knew that Yan Xiu called the other party Uncle Tie, so he also called him so.

"Is Fang Gongzi going out?"

"Yes, how is Yan Xiu?"

"Childe woke up last night and is still resting, does Childe Fang want to go in?" Uncle Tie said as he retreated from the door of the room.

"Still sleeping? Fang Zheng thought about it straightly, and decided not to disturb Yan Xiu for the first time, after all, Uncle Tie had already come, so there should be no problem with Yan Xiu's care.

"Okay. Uncle Tie nodded and stood back in his place.

Fang Zhengzhi didn't say anything more, and walked straight out of the inn, pacing leisurely on the street with small steps, while looking left and right looking for delicious snacks.

In a short time, there were five or six snacks in his hand.

So, while talking, he enjoyed the morning sunshine, and at this time, Fang Zheng's eyes also noticed a guy in a black shirt in the roadside alley, with a thief's eyebrows.

Also carrying a huge thing wrapped in black cloth on its back that looked like a box.

Fang Zhengzhi has never been too interested in men, but the other party's constant frowning at him still makes him a little unhappy.

So, he decided to give the guy a punch.

Let this guy know what will happen to him.

"Oh, Childe's men have mercy!" The little guy saw Fang Zhengzhi's fist, and immediately knelt down and pleaded bitterly with Fang Zhengzhi.

"Say, why are you so ugly and scary?" Fang Zhengzhi asked sternly.

"Ah?!" As soon as the little guy heard Fang Zheng's words, the whole person suddenly felt a little bad, and a pair of black eyes turned rapidly: "The small nature is not as good as the grace of the child, the son is the dragon and the phoenix among the people at a glance, I don't know if the son has a hobby for treasures?"

"Treasure, what treasure!" Fang Zheng's eyes lit up, could it be that he was lucky? When he went out, he ran into a thief who was in a hurry to get rid of it?

"Childe, please come with the little one, this is a first-class treasure, be careful to be seen by others!" As soon as the little guy heard Fang Zheng's words, he immediately showed a stammering expression.

"Okay!" Fang Zhengzhi nodded.

Soon, under the leadership of the little guy, Fang Zhengzhi also came to a remote place in the alley, where a big tree blocked the light, which could be regarded as a hidden place.

"What a treasure, take it out!" Fang Zhengzhi urged.

"Childe, please look!" The little guy didn't have any intention of delaying, and directly took out the things wrapped in cloth behind his back.

Sure enough, it was a wooden box.

It looks a little delicate, made of mahogany, and there are some carvings on it.

"This is a treasure, it's called the Sunbow !!" (To be continued.) )
