Chapter 274: Quarterly Exam
The white steward rushed back day and night, and it only took two days to arrive at Jingshi. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
There was no time to settle the injured guard, so he went straight to Lu Yun.
Lu Yun heard him talk about the reinforcements, although he was surprised, he was still calm.
But when he opened the secret letter and saw the handwriting on it in the light of the candlelight, his expression could no longer be described as shocked.
His face was pale and his lips trembled slightly......
Obviously, he has been an official for many years, and he knows the seriousness of this matter better than Lu Shuo!
"Second Master!"
When the white steward saw his reaction after reading the letter, he was shocked and cried out.
He didn't know the content of the letter, but Lu Yun's expression told him that something must have happened!
What is it that can make Lu Yun, who has always been motionless, lose his temper to this point......
After a long while, Lu Yun put away the horror on his face.
"White Butler! The letter ...... When you brought it back, did anyone notice it? ”
The white steward shook his head firmly and said, "The young master has explained clearly, I would rather destroy the letter than let it fall into the hands of others!" This letter was carried out all the way, and no one would find out! ”
"That's good, that's good!"
Lu Yun muttered a few words, paced around the study a few more times, and then turned around and walked to the candlestick.
The white steward was dumbfounded: "Second master, you are ......"
Lu Shuo ignored it, only lowered his head and watched the letter in his hand burn clean little by little.
"Today's things will not be mentioned in the future!"
When the burning was finished, Lu Shuo said in a deep voice.
"No matter what time it is, don't leak out half a cent......"
The white steward solemnly should be.
The second master said that if you don't mention it, don't mention it! The second master must have his reasons for this.
The white steward replied a few more words about the bandits, and then withdrew.
Lu Yun sat back behind the bookcase, looked at the spring scenery outside the window, sighed, and muttered: "You let us concentrate on politics and don't ask about the court fight, but have you forgotten it yourself?" ”
The Wei family has the remnants of the lineage, how could Emperor Hui Chong let it go easily.
Yuan Zhongdao hit the muzzle of the gun by himself!
……
Two days later, the Xue Mansion really sent someone to the academy, and after leaving school, he agreed to Lu Shuo's request yesterday in front of everyone.
Xue Ning was also brought back.
But this time, he was like a frosted eggplant, no longer arrogant as before, looking at Lu Shuo's eyes were also dodgy and resentful, walking tremblingly, touching his buttocks from time to time, obviously not less lessons.
The students were satisfied, and their eyes became closer and closer to Lu Shuo.
When Lu Shuo saw that he had achieved his goal, he naturally would not continue to hold on.
He only nodded, said a few polite words to the steward, and went back with Zhou Mao.
Compared with Xue Ningyi, who raised his eyebrows and stared, he left a better impression.
Lu Shuo didn't need to deal with this matter at all now, because as long as Xue Zhizhou's mind was not confused, he would not let Xue Ning continue to mess around and pull hatred for him......
Moreover, after Xue Fu sent someone to apologize to him that day, Yuan Zhongdao also looked for him.
didn't mention why Xue Ning was so laissez-faire, nor did he mention how to punish Xue Ning who fanned the flames, but only warned him not to forget the original intention of coming to Taoshan Academy.
Original intention? His original intention was naturally to study hard.
Yuan Zhongdao's meaning was fully revealed, and he asked him not to ask about things outside the window, and only read the books of sages.
But how can he have peace of mind?
It doesn't matter who Wei Zhao is! But Yuan Zhongdao was involved with this dangerous person.
Once exposed, it is very likely to be a catastrophe for the Yuan family!
Yuan family! It's Yuan's mother's house! It's also his foreign home! It's the home of your loved ones!
He could not rest assured, he could only tremble, hoping that this day would never come......
Lu Shuo wanted to ask Yuan Zhongdao about the Xue family, but after thinking about it, he didn't ask in the end.
What if you ask?
Yuan Zhongdao hid everyone from him, so naturally he wouldn't tell him easily!
He decided to bury this matter in his heart for the time being, and treat Wei Zhao as usual, before the storm came, he didn't want to and couldn't mess with himself.
He is now concentrating on preparing for the quarterly exams.
As the date of the quarterly exam is getting closer and closer, Lu Shuo is confident in his heart, and he can't help but be a little nervous.
Zhou Mao studied with him for a few days, and after school every day, he would find time to talk to Lu Shuo, and he also had a certain understanding of Lu Shuo's level, which was really not bad!
Even, if it weren't for the advantage of age and study time, Zhou Mao felt that he might not be able to compare with him!
Talented, and hard-working!
Such a junior brother, Zhou Mao likes it in his heart!
There is no evasion and no estrangement, and he feels that it is very rare to meet a friend who is like-minded and of equal strength.
It's a great blessing in life!
Seeing that Lu Shuo was a little anxious, he persuaded him: "... Although the types of questions in the quarterly examination are slightly different from those in the imperial examination, it is not easy to come out on top according to your level, but it is still not a problem to outperform students in other third-class classes! ”
Lu Shuo was encouraged by him, and while he was grateful, his anxious heart gradually settled down.
In this way, by the time the day of the quarterly exam, Lu Shuo had already calmly gone to the examination room.
The examination room for the quarterly examination is somewhat special, and it is set up in the open space outside the walls of the college.
In the late spring of March, the warm sun is shining, the breeze is gentle, the clear stream is flowing in the distance, and the surrounding green trees and red flowers are intertwined.
A group of students sat separately by the long desk they moved out, or scratched their heads and shook their heads, or nodded and smiled, and began to answer the questions.
Lu Shuo sat scattered in the center of the candidates, and they were not in the same place as Zhou Mao.
The warm breeze was so drunk that Lu Shuo was in good spirits, looking at the test paper in his hand intently.
According to his habit, he skimmed through the test questions, made sure that they were correct, answered them one by one, and transcribed the answers......
After doing a whole set, Lu Shuo only felt that it was getting smoother and smoother, his thinking was becoming clearer and clearer, and he did not delay in writing calmly.
The bell rang, and Lu Shuo took the lead in handing in the test papers.
Zhou Mao was already waiting for him around the corner, and Lu Shuo was about to greet him with a smile, when he saw a person standing next to him.
It's Wei Zhao.
Wei Zhao stood with his hands in his hands, but on his cold face, a pair of ink-like pupils became brighter and brighter, especially when Lu Shuo approached, there was a faint smile in his eyes.
Lu Shuo tugged at the corners of his mouth.
According to Zhou Mao, since he came, Wei Zhao's state has been extremely abnormal, and the smile on his face, which was cold in the past, has become more and more smiling.
Although he still doesn't talk to people much, the cold taste of his body has eased a lot.
Lu Shuo didn't know how Wei Zhao was in the past, after listening to Zhou Mao's words, he also made a special observation, and found that Wei Zhao was really not as cold and unapproachable as the rumors said.
Is it because of the fact that he rescued himself when the tea shed was a bandit?
Lu Shuo guessed that it might be that the explanation given to Zhou Mao was also this, but thinking of Wei Zhao's identity, he couldn't get close to him.
He doesn't evaluate the five princes, and he doesn't know whether Wei Ge Lao has been wronged, he only knows one thing: Wei Zhao is a dangerous person.
A dangerous figure who is enough to ruin the Yuan family.
It would be strange if he could still get close to him!
Keeping the right distance is the right choice.
"Senior brother!"
Lu Shuo smiled and walked towards the two.
