Chapter 120

"I ...... I couldn't hold back for a while......"

Pei Xuan had a handsome face, saying the words of a scoundrel and a scoundrel, Yan Zhaohua gasped, and when he said this, his face turned red again, and he reached out and gently pushed him, but I don't know if he didn't have the strength, or his arm was really sore and weak, when he got to Pei Xuan, he only turned into a gentle flick, grabbed Pei Xuan, squeezed it tightly in the palm of his hand, and refused to let go.

Yan Zhaohua wanted to withdraw his hand, but where was his opponent, he came and went, pulled Pei Xuan up again, and hugged him, Yan Zhaohua couldn't struggle, so he simply didn't struggle, anyway, holding him in his arms, it was rare to have peace of mind, and the thoughts that he hadn't seen for more than a month instantly turned into tenderness and flowed in this quiet room.

"When you are filial, I will come to propose marriage."

Yan Zhaohua didn't speak, only after a while, he nodded in his shoulder socket. Pei Xuan got permission and was full of joy: "I will be good to you." It's good for you alone for a lifetime. ”

Yan Zhaohua still didn't speak, but listening to Pei Xuan say this in his ears, he didn't know why, he only felt the irrepressible sourness on his nose, looked up at Pei Xuan, the two happened to meet their eyes, Yan Zhaohua asked Pei Xuan:

"Why do you like me?"

Pei Xuan thought about it, and it seemed that even he himself hadn't seriously thought about this problem, and only after thinking about it did he say, "I can't tell you clearly." At the beginning, I thought you were too scheming, but later I found out that although you were scheming, you had never harmed anyone, and then I looked at you, and I felt that you were pleasing to the eye, and I really couldn't tell you the specific reason. ”

Yan Zhaohua knew that Pei Xuan was telling the truth and the truth, it turned out that he felt that he was a scheming girl at the beginning, no wonder he kept targeting it. remembered that when the two first met, Pei Xuan targeted him, and Yan Zhaohua suddenly felt a little crying and laughing.

After the two finished complaining, they began to talk about serious topics, and Yan Zhaohua asked Pei Xuan: "How is the matter of Nanmen Street handled this time?" I've been listening to a lot of things lately, and it seems to be quite strict. "Not only other families, but even the Xie family are a little turbulent, because in addition to Yan Ruiqian and Xie Fan were sent back, several sons of the Xie family's second and third rooms who went to Nanmen Street with them last time were also arrested, although the Liu family did not say to Yan Zhaohua, but when Yan Zhaohua occasionally went to the Xie family to ask for peace, he could vaguely see the grandmothers in the second and third rooms coming to cry.

Pei Xuan didn't hide it from her, and said bluntly: "It's really strict, I have arrested several children of the family, but I can turn the family upside down." ”

Yan Zhaohua remembered what Yan Ruiqian said last time, Gong Ruquan took them to Nancheng Street through the six princes, and they sent them back, but Yan Zhaohua wanted to know how Gong Ruquan was.

"What about the six princes and Gong Ruquan? Have you been caught too? ”

Pei Xuan shook his head: "The sixth prince didn't, I sent someone else to send him back, after all, he is the prince, and if he gets involved in this kind of thing, the emperor has no face there, and as for the others, they are all in prison." Is Gong Ruquan the brother you are talking about? Two days ago, Guogong personally went to the prison and bailed the kid out, and made a note in front of the emperor for this. If you want me to say, Guogong is also kind to that brother-in-law. ”

Yan Zhaohua didn't know about this matter, Xie Guozhang was so confused, she really didn't know what to say, Pei Xuan went to Xie's house to live a few times, where did she not know about Aunt Gong's affairs, and she also felt that Xie Guozhang's approach was inappropriate, and said:

"It's not that I don't respect your grandfather, it's just that I think if your grandfather continues like this, sooner or later he will get into a big disaster, at least one of the charges of spoiling a concubine and killing his wife can't escape, your grandmother is a rare person who understands, if your grandfather is willing to listen to her, maybe it will be better."

Yan Zhaohua heard Pei Xuan say this, and his heart was also depressed, and said: "My grandfather feels sorry for Aunt Gong, and it is also because Aunt Gong is now pregnant, and my grandfather is looking forward to her having another son. ”

Pei Xuan saw that her eyebrows were frowning slightly, and he knew that she was really annoyed, so he asked, "How much do you know about the Gong family?" ”

"Huh?" Yan Zhaohua was puzzled: "What do you know?" ”

"It's about Aunt Gong's mother's family, how much do you know? I always feel that an aunt's younger brother, no matter how good the relationship between sister and brother is, Aunt Gong shouldn't be spoiled like this. Pei Xuan expressed the doubts in his heart.

Yan Zhaohua recalled: "Gong Ruquan is Aunt Gong's youngest brother, not long after Aunt Gong entered the house, she picked him up from her hometown, and he was probably a few years old at that time, saying that there was no one in his hometown." He stayed in the Guogong Mansion for more than ten years. Do you find anything strange? ”

Pei Xuan touched his chin and muttered for a moment: "It's not strange, it's just that that kid really can't stay, I knew that he was such a scourge, and he should have been killed outside that day." ”

The two were talking, Pei Xuan suddenly looked out vigilantly, Yan Zhaohua was puzzled, Pei Xuan said, "Someone is coming." ”

Yan Zhaohua went to the window and looked: "It's dyeing incense." I don't know what's going on, so why don't you go first. ”

Pei Xuan was reluctant to Yan Zhaohua, but he was helpless, he only secretly looked forward to the coming of next year, bent down, kissed Yan Zhaohua on the cheeks, and whispered:

"I'll see you in two days."

After saying that, he quickly turned over from the window and went out. Yan Zhaohua hurriedly went to the bronze mirror to look at himself, and made sure that there was nothing unusual, so he walked slowly to the small study with a book from the bedside, but as soon as he walked to the bead curtain, Dye Xiang knocked on the door:

"Miss, the master is back, and he said that he was waiting to see you in the study."

Yan Zhaohua let her in, and Dye Xiang saw Yan Zhaohua who was reading with a notebook, and then looked at the breakfast on the table, which didn't move, and couldn't help but say to Yan Zhaohua again: "Ouch, why didn't Miss eat it, even if you want to eat black chicken soup, you have to eat breakfast first." ”

Yan Zhaohua compared the book in his hand with Dye Xiang and asked, "I forgot to read the book, what is my father looking for me?" ”

Dye Xiang said while packing up her things: "I heard the messenger say that it seems that the master has got some kind of treasure, and he wants to invite the young lady to watch it." ”

Yan Xiu is interested in pen and ink, these days he always goes to the gentleman of Hengshan Academy, the gentleman of Hengshan Academy and the contemporary Confucian personal relationship is very good, Yan Xiu must have found what calligraphy everyone's ink treasure, after coming back, I want to invite my daughter over to watch and watch together.

After changing his clothes, Yan Zhaohua walked to Yan Xiu's study.

Yan Xiu took a scroll, walked out of the door, felt that the light on the corridor was not good, so he walked to the courtyard, looking at this authentic work in the sun, not to mention how happy he was, suddenly felt a little wrong, put away the scroll, Yan Xiu walked to the courtyard and looked at the roof, before he seemed to feel that someone was passing above the Hou Mansion, but now he saw nothing unusual, and he wondered in his heart.

As soon as Yan Zhaohua arrived at Yan Xiu's academy, he saw his father looking at something in the air, walked over and asked:

"Dad, what are you looking at?"

Yan Xiu touched the mustache at the corner of his mouth: "There seems to be someone on the roof......"

Just this sentence scared Yan Zhaohua to the point that his soul was gone, and his heart couldn't wait to jump out of his throat, and the people on the roof ...... It must be Pei Xuan, right? In the past, he haunts at night, but this time during the day, it is really a little dangerous, no, Yan Xiu noticed it.

Yan Xiu turned around and saw his daughter with a frightened face, and hurriedly comforted: "Oh, it's okay, it's okay, I may have been dazzled by the mistake." ”

Yan Zhaohua nodded with a stiff smile, patted his chest, and said, "Oh, that's good, it's scared to death." Catching a glimpse of the painting in Yan Xiu's hand, Yan Zhaohua thought about it and hurriedly diverted Yan Xiu's attention and asked, "By the way, what did my father ask me to come over to watch?" ”

As soon as Yan Xiu heard this, he withdrew his gaze, took out a scroll from his back, and said proudly: "I have been looking for the authentic handiwork of Mr. Yan Cong for a long time, and I finally found it for me." Let's take a look. ”

When it comes to calligraphy and painting, Yan Xiu is a different look, Yan Zhaohua breathed a sigh of relief, leaned over and watched Mr. Yan Cong's true works with Yan Xiu, and in order to keep Yan Xiu from continuing to think about the question just now, Yan Zhaohua also racked his brains, and kept pestering Yan Xiu to ask about the knowledge of these calligraphy and paintings, although Yan Xiu felt that his daughter was a little strange today, but for her studious attitude, Yan Xiu was still quite satisfied.

The father and daughter discussed one calligraphy and painting after another, and finally called Yan Ruiqian over, and the three of them stayed in the study for a long time.

Autumn is always exciting, and this year is no exception, after the candidates enter the examination room, the results will be released on the third day.

Yan Ruiqian and Yan Shuyan both participated in the township test this year, because the two of them were born in the Hou Mansion, and they can directly participate in the township test, Yan Ruiqian has been the son of Changning Houfu since he became the son of Changning Houfu, and he seems to have grown up a lot overnight, and he was also caught in his homework that he originally thought was dispensable, and he studied hard day and night, studying the exam questions over the years, after this hard work, he really got the fame of a showman this year, although it was only a small show, but this was enough for Yan Ruiqian to be happy, Shuyan was still young after all, and he just participated, did not get any fame.

On the third day after the examination, the imperial court released the list, the top three places were established, this year's top three are all young men, the voice is very high and the mighty Houfu prince Tan Xiaozhi emerged in the name of Tanhua, the champion and the list were respectively obtained by Shanxi student Chu Feng and Luoyang student Fang Tianji, both of whom were born in a poor family, among which Chu Feng is a dark horse who fought out of the encirclement, and there was no prestige among the students, but he did not expect his one' Through the talent' like a stroke of genius, the whole article is incisive, won unanimous praise from the gentlemen of the Hanlin Academy, circulated into the palace, even the saint read it is full of praise, and the palace test directly pointed to this Chu Feng as the champion. Before the exam, Tan Xiaozhi, who had the highest voice as the champion, only won the name of Tanhua.

Although it is a pity, Tan Xiaozhi still became the second child of the family to emerge in the imperial examination after Pei Xuan.
