readx;? There are a lot of people in the Guozi Prison who participated in the township examination, but none of them have Lin Xi's reputation, and after that and the crown ceremony, no one can match in the school, if the test is not good, it will be a shame. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fortunately, as soon as the list was revealed, Lin Xi's name was at the top of the list, and a solution yuan was in the bag.

"Of course, there is your talent in this, but in the name of the teacher, the emperor's holy family also has a lot to do with it, this article is read by the teacher, but Er'er, the idea is not deep, the views are too conservative, and it cannot be compared with what is done on weekdays. ”

Mr. Bai didn't give Xie Yuan face at all, and severely criticized the article written by Lin Xi when he came back.

"What you said is very true, but this year's chief examiner is Master Liu of the Ministry of Rites, and I heard that he is very conformist, and the students think that he will not like too unconventional works. ”

Lin Xi did not refute, sat opposite Mr. Bai, holding a pot and pouring tea.

However, the old gentleman snorted coldly, "I inquired clearly, I didn't think about making progress from time to time, I just thought about this crooked way, and this strategy was a waste of pen and ink in the old man's opinion." ”

Lin Xi smiled: "Didn't you remind the students?"

"When?"

Lin Xi put down the teapot, cleared his throat, lowered his voice and said: "How did the emperor choose such an old stubborn as the examiner, alas, you can get the top spot by copying the Four Books and Five Classics once, what's the use!"

Old Mr. Bai stared at him, and his beard curled up angrily, "Stinky boy, the old man just said it casually." ”

"The words of the master, the students remember. Lin Xi said with a smile, and added again, "Teacher, you are right, the emperor is really confused." ”

Mr. Bai blew his beard, but in the end he didn't refute it, but just said: "Although it is the first place, you must not be complacent because of this, the fire has not yet arrived at home, and the pen strength is weaker after all, the next session will be next year, do you want to participate?"

"Naturally. ”

"Then I forgot about today's grades, and I don't need to say much about studying hard. Will try to recruit the world's talents, talents from various provinces gather in the capital, that is the real level, others can only succeed after ten years of hard study, like you, if you don't work hard to take the exam when the time comes, you will have to sweep the floor and go out for the teacher. ”

This sentence is again, and he has been swept out of the house many times.

Lin Xi nodded amusedly, "Don't worry, the student is Xie Yuan, although it is not easy to be as good as the teacher, a Jinshi is still sure, if I really take the same Jinshi, I will be embarrassed." ”

Mr. Bai snorted coldly, "It's easy to talk big, don't flash your tongue." ”

Lin Xi won the top spot, such a happy event, the Lin Mansion was the happiest.

Steward Lin set up the tablet of the old lady early in the morning, and when Lin Xi returned from the White Mansion, he burned incense to tell him. The subordinates in the house have sent twice as many silver coins to celebrate this month, and the whole is full of joy.

There was also a congratulatory gift from the Marquis of Yongning's mansion, and Qi's mother personally came to invite Lin Xi to come to the mansion to speak.

"Okay, Xi'er really has the demeanor of a father, and next year's high school is just around the corner. Mrs. Tai held Lin Xi's hand tightly and looked at Lin Xi happily, her face full of relief.

"Grandmother still remembers what she said to you when she first arrived in the capital, and Xi'er is realizing it step by step. ”

After the crown, it was an adult, and Lin Xi was inconvenient to lean on Mrs. Tai's side and talk intimately like a young man, so he just stood in front of him with a smile, as tall as a bamboo, and his hair under the white jade crown was combed up, looking gentle and elegant, and a gentleman was square.

Mrs. Tai squinted her eyes slightly and recalled, then smiled and said: "Remember, Xi'er has this ambition and perseverance, when there is a great creation, don't slack off." ”

"Follow my grandmother's teachings. Lin Xi bowed.

"Why should it be. Mrs. Tai smiled and said, "Your eldest cousin was fifth at that time, and he ordered a good banquet for Fenglaiju and invited relatives and friends to celebrate." Xie Yuan is even more difficult, your two uncles mean to do a big deal, what do you say?"

The identity of the eldest son of the Marquis of Yongning is noble, and it is not easy for the noble family to suddenly have a person, and it is necessary to do a big job.

However, Lin Xi's previous crown ceremony was already too high-profile, and now the banquet is afraid that it will be too strong, his identity is not obvious, only because he has a good teacher to make friends with the Nine Emperor Princes, and is favored by the emperor, if he does not hold it, it is easy to be criticized by others.

So he persuaded: "In this exam, I have tacitly asked the teacher to comment, and the teacher commented that the idea of this article is not deep, the arguments are clichéd, the pen is a little weak, and the name of Xie Yuan is actually difficult to deputy, but it is only a coincidence that the examiner has this result, and it is only in the teacher's face that this result is achieved." The uncles' intentions, Xi'er is very grateful, but after the teacher's detailed explanation, I feel that my talent is insufficient, and I can't wait to make up for it immediately, there is still a year to go, Xi'er wants to study hard behind closed doors, and strive to get the results in the next year, and then ask the uncles to take care of it. ”

My grandson has always been humble and gentle, which is excellent.

Although there are regrets, but there is always nothing wrong with being cautious, Mrs. Tai looked at him more and more lovingly, and said: "It's okay, now is the time to be in full swing, and it is not too late for the high school jinshi to feast again, and my grandmother will wait for Xi'er to play horses and parade the streets." It's just that reading is important, but your body must not be slack, you are weak, you are not allowed to work hard when you should rest, you must know that health is the foundation of everything, even the emperor does not dare to use a weak courtier, can you understand?"

Lin Xi naturally didn't agree, "Don't worry, your grandson knows." ”

Lin Xi accompanied Mrs. Tai to return to the Lin Mansion after dinner, according to the past, later on, there will always be a vigorous figure climbing the wall of the Lin Mansion.

It's just that the candlelight is like a bean, Tuan Tuan entered the study, cut the candle core for Lin Xi, and replaced another candle that was about to burn out, and couldn't help but persuade: "Young master, it's not early, it's better to rest first." ”

If the master is coming, he can touch the door without leaving a lamp.

"What time is it?" Lin Xi put down his pen and couldn't help but rub his temples and soothe his sour eyes.

"It's a moment. ”

The candlelight was too dim, and Lin Xi couldn't hold it anymore, so he nodded and got up, leaving Tuan Tuan to clean up his study.

You Yuanyuan served to change clothes and wash, and then went to bed, Lin Xi closed his eyes for a while, but suddenly opened them again, and called: "Go and ask, what happened?"

After a while, Yuan Yuan came in lightly, "I heard that the prince went to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing early yesterday morning, and he hasn't come back yet." ”

Hearing this, Lin Xi frowned, Zhao Jingyi handed over the military power and was idle at home, although he controlled the patrol battalion, but there was a commander Zhang Yi who did not need his supervision, and there was a relatively errand to go to the Beijing suburb battalion to train and inspect the troops, but it was not heavy, just go to see it every few days, and rarely return to the house at night, but there was a big movement?

He let Yuanyuan blow out the candle and go down to rest, and then shrank into the quilt, thinking about the recent events in the court, but he had no clue.

Not for the official Even the news is lagging behind, and in the end, Lin Xi sighed, made up his mind to study hard in high school as soon as possible, and closed his eyes and fell asleep.

On the second day, Lin Xi didn't go anywhere to visit, just stayed at home to read the book, but the news from the Rui Wangfu did not wait, but he waited for the Nine Emperor Princes, as well as Zhao Xiaoshizi, who had just been brought from the Rui Wangfu.

"Uncle Lin. ”

"Cousin. ”

Fifteen-year-old Zhao Jingyu led ten-year-old Zhao Yuanrong into the courtyard and walked all the way, seeing Lin Xi showing two smiling faces.

Lin Xi quickly came out and bowed lightly to the Nine Emperor Princes, and said with a smile: "Why did you come here today, the Chongwen Pavilion homework is easy?"

"I asked my father to go to the palace. By the way, I also brought my father's reward, he said that next year's spring exam will be good, and I am waiting to seal you with three yuan and the first!"

Lin Xi was really crying and laughing and was sincerely afraid, "Thank you, Lord Longen, the students do their best." ”

The Nine Emperor Princes smiled and bared his teeth and said, "I'm also waiting for Uncle Lin's good news, but it's still early, so let's not talk about it yet." I'm afraid you don't know, I'm leaving Beijing. ”

After the Nine Emperors finished speaking with a smile, he saw Lin Xi showing a look of surprise, and blurted out a question: "When is it?" and then said, "Let's go into the house." ”

After serving tea and sending delicate snacks, the maid retreated.

At this time, the Nine Emperor Princes said slowly: "Yesterday, my father made the will. Uncle Lin is afraid that he doesn't know that the governor of Shanxi has been on the fold, and Daolinshan County has suffered from bandits, and a group of vicious bandits occupy the mountain as the king, rob the villagers under the mountain, and forcibly pull the strong into the gang, which will be killed if he does not agree. Now it has become a climate, and many rich households have been destroyed in the banner of robbing the rich and helping the poor, and the people who do not know the truth also praise its chivalrous style. Zhizhou saw that the situation was not right, so he invited the Shanxi army to suppress the bandits, but he didn't expect that the bandits were fierce and the Shanxi army was defeated, which fueled their arrogance, and they had no choice but to ask their father to order the encirclement and suppression of the bandits. ”

Speaking of this, the Nine Emperor Princes were quite indignant, "The people are ignorant, I don't know how many have been deceived again, and the good people have become bandits, alas, ......"

There is always a reason for this to enter the mountain, and Linshan County doesn't know what happened to cause this banditry, but the reason is not important, since the emperor has issued an order, it is imperative to suppress the bandits.

Knowing this, then it makes sense for Zhao Jingyi to stay in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing for days, and I am afraid that he will immediately pull out the camp to suppress the bandits.

Lin Xi asked: "The bandits are dangerous, Your Highness has never been out of the capital, and he has no experience in fighting the enemy, and the sword light and sword shadow are dangerous, how could the emperor suddenly think of you?"

The Nine Emperors said: "My father happened to be taking my homework that day, and as soon as this urgent fold came up, my father did not avoid me, so I saw it, and my father was angry, and I automatically asked for help as soon as my mind was hot...... I thought I would be scolded, but I didn't expect my father to give it. ”

He said with a glint of excitement in his eyes, as a prince, how could he not have thought that when he commanded the soldiers and horses to scold Fang Xuan, he couldn't hold back his excitement when he thought of it.

However, Zhao Yuanrong glanced at the Nine Emperor Princes unhappily, "Yes, my father hasn't returned to the house yet, and I'm going to leave soon." ”

The Nine Emperors suddenly laughed and said to him, "My father is not at ease, so I have to grieve Brother Rui to escort him, Rong'er don't be annoyed." ”

Zhao Yuanrong pursed his lips and snorted coldly: "Don't do it without yourself when you get over there, act recklessly, I'm just such a father." ”

Hearing this, the Nine Emperors suddenly cried and laughed, "Brother Rui is famous for fighting against Hu Nu, and I also admire him very much. ”

Zhao Yuanrong stopped talking.

Lin Xi poured tea into his tea bowl, Zhao Yuanrong raised his face and suddenly smiled, and suddenly collapsed again.

My father is leaving again, what should I do with my cousin? I don't know how long it will take, this cousin has been lifted, and the first name is Xie Yuan, and I heard Gonggong Cao say that the matchmakers in the capital are all ready to move. At such a critical moment, the unruly father actually went to suppress the bandits! Shouldn't he stick to his cousin's side? What if someone else climbed the wall in the middle of the night?

Zhao Yuanrong looked at his cousin, who was becoming more and more handsome, and thought about whether he should move to the Lin Mansion by himself? Anyway, it was not that he had never lived together, and he was very familiar with returning to his old business.

A heart is simply broken for his heroic father.

Lin Xi didn't pay attention to Zhao Yuanrong's ambivalent psychology, and just said to the Nine Emperors: "If Prince Rui can go, then it will be nine out of ten, and His Highness only needs to listen and watch more." It's just that the emperor ordered Prince Rui to be the main general, but after all, he also let you go, in the face of the bandits, the prince will definitely ask you, I don't know if His Royal Highness has a protocol in his heart?"

Speaking of this, the Nine Emperors sat up straight with a solemn face and replied: "I thought about it carefully, and I also had to turn over the local chronicles, although there are many mountains in Linshan County, the people have always been simple, and there are few villains. After I went with the army, I wanted to find out the cause and effect of Rushan as a coward, and then think about whether to kill him directly or recruit him. ”

Lin Xi smiled and nodded, "Whether it's recruiting or killing, since there is Prince Rui in charge, I am not afraid of insufficient troops and insufficient combat power, so I can act cheaply." In addition, His Highness may wish to investigate the people involved carefully, and say that he will not be able to reveal some secrets. The students had a hunch that this would definitely not be just an ordinary bandit, and it involved a wide range of things, so that the emperor had to send the prince to sit in the town. And His Royal Highness grew up in the deep palace, and has almost no contact with the outside of the palace, let alone any entanglement of interests, and his status is noble, so he is a good candidate for the main thing. ”

The Nine Emperors frowned, as if they didn't expect things to get complicated, and they were quite disappointed, "I thought that suppressing bandits was the most important thing. ”

Lin Xi laughed in a low voice, "No matter how good the climate is, it can't compete with the imperial army, let alone the Northwest Army, which was once brave and good at fighting. ”

The Nine Emperor Princes sighed, "Yes, with the prestige of Brother Rui, maybe the bandits will surrender first before they make a move." ”

Zhao Yuanrong clasped his arms and nodded heavily, very proud.

Lin Xi unconsciously curled the corners of his mouth, and was quickly leveled, "Whether it is the emperor's intentional or helpless choice, it is a good thing that His Royal Highness has this opportunity, if it can be solved smoothly, you will have more weight in the emperor's heart, and even the ministers who have always been impressed by you will realize that in addition to the King of Liang and the King of Shu, there is also a Nine Emperor Prince who can take on this great task, which is much more clever than directly wooing you." ”

The Nine Emperor Princes nodded unconsciously when they heard this, and then suddenly heard Lin Xi say, "You are already fifteen years old, presumably the emperor is already considering the candidate for the crown princess, if you are not mistaken, when the army returns, this candidate can be decided, and then His Royal Highness will not be far from opening the mansion of the king!"

So, come on, boy!

Lin Xi squinted his eyes and took a sip of tea, looked at Zhao Jingyu, who suddenly blushed, and laughed in his heart.
