Chapter 35: See the Jade Mandarin Duck Again

On the way, she humbly asked Hong Fei for advice, and asked about the personnel of the imperial court, who might be the chief examiner of this examination, and their temperament preferences. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Hong Fei saw that she was humble and studious, and he was willing to guide her.

After talking, Hong Fei found that Liang Xinming's talent was better than his own, but he was not proud, Hong Fei greatly appreciated her, and felt that she was down-to-earth, plus they were all young people, and they came and went, just like friends.

Li Huiniang is very eye-catching, and personally serves tea and dinner every day, because of the seasickness of Lord Zhou, she changes her ways to make all kinds of delicious and appetizing food and filial piety.

This made both Zhou and Hong Fei very satisfied, and praised her for being virtuous.

After Zhou Daren's seasickness symptoms were alleviated, he often came out to explain to Liang Xinming what he had seen and heard in the imperial examinations, comment articles and political affairs.

Zhou Dadao: "In the spring of next year, the chief examiner will be either Master Cui of the Ministry of Rites, or Master Li Yang Li, a bachelor of Hanlin." Cui Shangshu likes the old and serious style of writing. In the year when the new emperor ascended the throne, the imperial court opened Enke, and his name was Zhang Wang, and his poetry and calligraphy were good. During the examination, Mr. Cui felt that his views were too radical, and commented that the whole text was passionate and indeed inspiring, but national affairs are not child's play, and they cannot be solved by the spirit of the book business. If there are no effective measures, how is it different from Zhao Kuo, who talks on paper? Therefore, only a last stream was given. If it weren't for cherishing his talent and hoping that he could improve, maybe he would be named Sun Shan. ā€

Liang Xinming listened to it awe-inspiring and silently remembered it in his heart.

She didn't ask Mr. Zhou if the article was really on paper.

Because it's a matter of opinion.

In the process of implementing radical views, it is inevitable that the interests of some people will be touched, and no one can predict the results of persistent implementation.

Regardless of the dynasty, innovation is always a sensitive topic.

Innovation is not necessarily the right thing.

She asked again, "What about Master Li Yang?"

Zhou Dadao: "Lord Li should be more tolerant ......"

Along the way, Liang Xinming has benefited a lot.

They also talked about Wang Heng, and Liang Xinming knew more about Wang Heng.

Hong Fei wondered, why didn't Wang Heng catch up?

Seeing that he was about to arrive in the capital, he quipped: "Lord Wang also said that he wanted to take care of Qingyun, but now there is not even a human figure, how can he take care of it! Could it be that he is deliberately hiding? Qingyun, you will follow me home." Tomorrow I will shame him. ā€

Liang Xinming said: "Don't dare to bother the room master. ā€

Hong Fei said: "Such a trivial matter, what kind of trouble!"

Liang Xinming said: "The students are going to go to the Huizhou Hall. Before leaving, the governor gave two handwritten letters, and the students went to find their fellow villagers and planned to rent a courtyard to live in. ā€

Hong Fei thought that scholars are arrogant, Liang Xinming has some silver in his hand, and renting a house is more comfortable than living in someone else's house, so he no longer forces him.

He smiled again: "Wait for Antai to come back, see me ask him." ā€

Liang Xinming smiled lightly, and Wang Heng's face appeared in front of him.

Wang Heng and them arrived in the capital one after another.

That morning, he woke up in the Xinxiang Pavilion and left.

Although he was sure that Liang Xinming was not Lin Xin'er, he had no intention of giving up on tracking down the origin of the Blood Jade Mandarin Duck. He drew a portrait of Lin Xin'er and a figure of the blood jade mandarin duck, handed it to the housekeeper of the other garden, and asked him to arrange for people to go to the surrounding towns of Hecheng and Huayang Town to find out if anyone had seen the person in the painting, or the blood jade mandarin duck.

Lin Xin'er's portrait, he painted it according to the appearance of six years ago.

Originally, he was supposed to say hello and goodbye to Hong Fei and the others before leaving, but he was in a bad mood at the time and didn't want to see them. Especially don't want to see Liang Xinming. Liang Xinming and Lin Xin'er's look-like appearance made him feel piercing when he thought about it. What's more, the situation where he tested Liang Xinming the night before was too embarrassing and embarrassed to meet.

For several reasons, he left a message and went away.

He took Mo Yun and a few entourages and went to Lin Xin'er's house first.

Lin Xin'er's parents are still alive.

In the past few years, Wang Heng has sent people to send things and belongings to the Lin family every year, and it is the first time he has come to the door in person. At the Lin family, he tested it with words, but found nothing abnormal, so he had to leave.

Then, he went to Hecheng again.

As soon as he arrived in Hecheng, the housekeeper went back and forth to say that the jade mandarin duck had a clue.

He said that in Hecheng, many people have seen similar cross-necked jade mandarin ducks. It's a pair, not one. And more than one has it. Most of them are married families, and they have purchased them as a wedding gift, and both men and women keep one for a good omen. When I asked them, they all said that they were purchased in Hecheng Zhenbao Zhai, and the materials were all jade.

Wang Heng didn't expect the result to come so soon, and he was excited.

His pair of cross-necked blood jade mandarin ducks are exquisitely carved and have mechanisms, if there is no graphic reference, ordinary people will definitely not be able to imitate them. Not only can't it be imitated, but it can't even be separated. I don't know the mechanism, I have to break the neck of the mandarin duck! The production method of the jade mandarin duck in Zhenbao Zhai must have a origin.

He personally went to Zhenbao Zhai to inquire.

When the Sun Dongjia of Zhenbao Zhai heard the news, he came to see Wang Heng in person, and he didn't dare to hide anything, and he said the origin of the jade mandarin duck like a bean in a bamboo tube.

According to Sun Dongjia, the drawings of the cross-necked jade mandarin duck were obtained by him a year ago, and the person who sold the drawings to him was wearing a hat and looking like a woman.

Wang Heng asked, "What else?"

Sun Dongjia smiled and said, "No." ā€

Wang Heng stared at his rich round face, and said in disbelief: "How could it not be? How is her voice, rough or thin, young or old, delicate or crisp? Elegant or vulgar? Tall, how tall is it? Is her body fat or thin? How fat is fat, how thin is she? You can't see her face, you should always see her hands, right? Are those hands white or black, delicate or rough skin? slender fingers or stubby? Also, what kind of clothes is she wearing?"

He counted a large number of them in one breath, as if asking a case.

No, he's just asking questions!

Sun Dongjia was dumbfounded.

He was a trader, with poisonous eyes, but he couldn't remember what the guests looked like a year ago, and they were still wearing hats. Because of the exquisite production of this jade mandarin duck, he was deeply impressed, so he could say a rough idea;

Wang Heng let out a "hmm", as if urging him.

Sun Dongjia had a bitter face, subconsciously wiped the sweat that didn't exist, and said dryly: "Wear it...... Nor is it decent, as if it were cotton clothes. The voice is good, not coarse, not too thin...... It should be a woman......"

He recalled and described with difficulty, and when he saw Wang Hengjian's eyebrows gathered in the center of his eyebrows, he panicked and sped up and said, "The figure is neither fat nor thin." Height...... Probably shorter than the old man, a little shorter...... Hand...... Hand...... The villain didn't pay attention. Yes, it's very elegant. Without saying a word, he said that the drawings would be sold for a hundred taels of silver. I said fifty taels, and she turned around and left. I said eighty taels again, and she didn't look back. The villain hurriedly agreed. By the way, she asked the villain when she left, but there was a boat to Huizhou City in the afternoon. The villain told her that there was a boat to Huizhou City every morning, and it cost a hundred yuan for a trip, and there was no ...... in the afternoon."
