Thanks to "Tingyu" for the reward~

————————————————

The glow dyed half of the sky red, gently caressing all things in heaven and earth.

Ji Changge silently walked out of Dali Temple, Wen Jing also followed, the two walked one after the other, this is the first time Wen Jing feels the darkness of ancient officialdom, this is absolutely impossible to happen in modern times, there are so many doubts in the case, only a blood book of unknown origin can be hastily settled, it is really ridiculous.

A carriage slowly drove in front of him, stopped in front of Ji Changge, and the groom dismounted and said, "My lord invites the two of you to come over to the house." ”

Ji Changge and Wen Jing glanced at each other, and the groom's face was tight.

Seeing the puzzled eyes of the two, the horseman continued: "My master said that there is something important to tell you, please make sure you two go." ”

Ji Changge thought for a while and said, "Qi Niang, you go home first, and I'll go for a while." ”

"Since you invited me, it's okay to go." Wen Jing said lightly.

"Please, both."

The carriage went around and around for a long time, and then stopped.

Ji Changge opened the curtain of the car, but found that it was parked in front of Scholar Wang's mansion, and Scholar Wang was walking down from a sedan chair in front of him and got out of the car in a hurry.

"Teacher, why are you?" Ji Changge stepped forward and bowed.

Wang Xuelin stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Why can't it be the old man, the old man originally planned to go to Dali Temple, but he found that there were "distinguished guests" inside, so he invited the two of you. ”

Ji Changge couldn't cry or laugh, it turned out to be a false alarm, and this old naughty boy never forgot to be "naughty".

"I've seen Scholar Wang." Wen Jing stepped forward and saluted.

"No courtesy, no courtesy. Let's go in and talk about it. When Scholar Wang saw Wen Jing, the folds on his smiling face were a few layers deeper.

"Ancestor. You're not in good health, and you're running around, what's going on? Wang Erlang stepped forward and said.

Wang Xuelin glared at Wang Erlang: "It's really boring to recuperate at home every day. If it's boring, it's going to be boring for my old man! ”

"But Imperial Doctor Yu said, you can't work too hard." Wang Erlang said anxiously.

"You're not very old, but you're quite good at managing people, which eye do you see me working?" Wang Xuelin said impatiently.

Ji Changge looked at the two of them with tears and laughter: "The teacher is angry, and Brother Wang is also worried about the teacher's body. ”

"You go out first, I'm going to talk to them about something." Wang Xuelin said to Wang Erlang.

Wang Erlang was stunned for a moment, glanced at Ji Changge and Wen Jing, and then said goodbye and retreated.

Wang Xuelin put away the smile on his face, and his expression was a little solemn. Looking at the two of them, "This case will end here." ”

Ji Changge and Wen Jing didn't expect that Wang Xuelin asked them to come to talk about this case, and they didn't even let them continue to investigate.

"What is the teacher?"

As if knowing what Ji Changge was going to say, Wang Xuelin waved his hand and motioned to listen to him: "In this case, the saint just wants to solve the case as soon as possible to determine people's hearts, as for who the real murderer is, it doesn't matter anymore." ”

"Human life is at stake, although Sixi is dead. But the candidate who was arrested just now is a living life! Ji Changge said slightly angrily.

Wang Xuelin sighed, shook his head and said, "You young people." ”

"Lord Wang, is there anything else going on?" Wen Jing asked tentatively.

Wang Xuelin pondered for a moment, and finally decided to say it: "Party disputes have existed in all dynasties. Tell me, what is the situation that the Holy One wants to see the most? ”

"Balance." Wen Jing said calmly.

"Yes, what the Holy One wants most is for them to check and balance each other. To put it simply, this is a check-and-balance in a broad sense, of course. The mystery is far from being explained in a sentence or two, you just need to understand the stakes. Wang Xuelin said.

Ji Changge's face gradually fell silent. If the Holy One wants to sink this case, then I'm afraid no one will be able to make it float again

"This case won't be over so quickly." Wen Jing said suddenly.

Wang Xuelin looked at Wen Jing and said, "Seventh lady Wen, where do you say this?" ”

"My lord, have you forgotten that there will be spring next year? As long as there is a conflict of interest, it is not known that the murderer will commit another crime. Wen Jing continued.

Wang Xuelin nodded, compared with the township test, the meeting test and the palace test are the last fight.

Ji Changge's eyes lit up, Wen Jing was right, the murderer is very likely to show his face again during the meeting and the palace test, since they already know who the murderer is, it will be much easier, Qiu Xi, I will definitely expose your true form and fight with your life.

"It's not easy to 'admit your mistakes' to the Holy Master, you have to think about it well, and if you don't get it right, it's just a matter of losing your head." Wang Xuelin lowered his voice.

Ji Changge smiled and said: "This is not difficult, the saint has a very good face, Rao is like this, but he compares himself to Yao Shun, if he can verify it with his own eyes in front of everyone, he will definitely not pretend not to see it, so that we don't need to bother to speak." ”

Wang Xuelin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Say that you are young or young, do you think that the saint will be convinced in this way?" Do you remember the last time Chu Chaoyi pointed out in public that a word on the fold of the Shengshang was wrong, and the Shengshang praised him on the spot, and then a few days later he was sent to supervise the repair of the Great Wall of Shanxi. ”

The corners of Wen Jing and Ji Changge's eyes twitched a few times, and they suddenly felt a chill behind their backs, this emperor is really stingy, and they actually wanted the emperor to admit their mistakes, didn't they wash their necks and send them to death

Wang Xuelin looked at the expressions of the two, and laughed twice and said, "Scared? That's not necessary, no matter how you say it, you also call him uncle, he dares to touch you, the eldest princess doesn't follow. ”

Ji Changge's face was slightly red, he really didn't have any way to take this old naughty boy, and he didn't have the consciousness of a scholar at all.

Wen Jing couldn't help but laugh, this old man was really interesting.

"Knock knock."

"Ancestor, Wang Jue is here to bid you farewell." Outside the door, Wang Erlang said.

"Let him in."

The door opened, and Wang Jue was pushed in by a maidservant, her face sinking like water.

"Ancestor. Wang Jue came to let you resign, and lived up to your expectations. Wang Jue leaned down and said.

"I don't blame you. Hey" Wang Xuelin said with pity, if Wang Jue can win the first place in next year's palace examination. He can persuade the emperor to make an exception for admission, and he will not disappoint his talent, because of the four happy things, although Wang Jue was exempted from murder suspicion due to leg disease, he has already made up his mind.

Wang Jue glanced up at Ji Changge, his eyes were like knives.

"Regarding Sixi's death, I say I'm sorry to you." Ji Changge looked at Wang Jue and said.

Wang Jue chuckled lightly and did not answer, a touch of pathos flashed in his eyes. Sixi is not only a scholar, but also like a relative, a friend, he has been withdrawn and autistic since he was a child, if it weren't for Sixi, he may not be alive now, even if he has all kinds of talents, but he can't show it.

"I know that you blame me, and I will give you and Sixi justice." Ji Changge continued.

"Justice? Who arrested Sixi in the first place regardless of the facts? The smile in Wang Jue's eyes was even colder. If it weren't for the presence of Scholar Wang, he would really have to reason with this little grandfather.

Ji Changge was silent, he was to blame for this matter, and Sixi's death was not in his prediction at all. He originally planned to wait for the real culprit to be caught, and Sixi would naturally be released from prison innocently.

"Wang Gongzi, can you please continue to stay and participate in the scientific expedition?" Wen Jing said.

Wang Jue stared at Wen Jing coldly for a moment. Squeeze out three words: "Impossible." ”

"What if I say, I can heal your leg?"

Wen Jing smiled. Sure enough, I saw Wang Jue's face change slightly.

"How much?" Wang Jue said coldly.

"Thirty percent." Wen Jing said calmly.

Wang Jue was silent.

"Stay, if you can heal your leg before next year's spring. You're the champion. Wang Xuelin was quite happy and said, if Wang Jue could heal his leg injury, the champion would definitely not be able to run.

"You don't want to do something for Sixi?" Wen Jing looked at Wang Jue and said.

Wang Jue raised his head, his eyes were a little dazed, he had always relied on Sixi, he had almost regarded himself as a wasted person, he couldn't even go where he wanted to go, what else could he do? What can he do for Sixi?

There was silence in the room, and several people were waiting for Wang Jue to make a decision.

"I'll stay." Wang Jue finally spoke.

"Okay, tomorrow I will send someone to send you to the examination room to continue the exam, as soon as the autumn is over, you will be relieved to treat your legs, and I will have an explanation to your parents." Wang Xuelin looked into the distance and said.

"Ancestor Xie, I'm sorry for your trouble." Wang Jue said.

"Go ahead, rest well, and continue the exam tomorrow." Wang Xuelin waved his hand at Wang Erlang and motioned for him to send Wang Jue back.

Wang Erlang glanced at Wen Jing, nodded, and walked out of the city with Wang Jue.

Wen Jing watched the two of them walk out of the prison and said, "Scholar Wang, when will my father be released from prison?" ”

"It should come out soon, but I don't know what the Emperor of Lu Dao will do with Ling Zun, the holy will is unpredictable, but the old man will help Ling Zun intercede, Qi Niang rest assured." Wang Xuelin said.

Wen Jing breathed a sigh of relief, Scholar Wang's words still have a lot of weight, now that the case has been solved, the emperor should not be too embarrassed by his father.

After thanking him again, Wen Jing said goodbye and went home, Ji Changge also returned to Dali Temple, and there were still many affairs waiting for him to do.

Wang Erlang watched Wen Jing get into the carriage and stood there for a long time until the carriage disappeared at the end of the road.

"Ouch!" Wang Erlang suddenly felt a pain in his head and called softly.

"Ancestor, why are you beating me?"

"Wake up your wooden stake, since you like people, go buy some gifts for others, walk around more, don't just look at it stupidly, everyone is gone, what else to see." Wang Xuelin sighed and said, his grandson has the best heart, but he is also the most wooden one, if he can marry Qi Niang, he can be regarded as finding a virtuous helper, but unfortunately this wooden stake is not enlightened at all, no matter how you look at it, it can't compare with his student Ji Changge, it can't compare with appearance, it can't compare with learning, and if you don't be diligent, how can it be compared?

Wang Erlang blushed and opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to speak, and thought for a long time: "The master said, men and women don't kiss, I haven't made a marriage contract with Wen Qiniang, how can I accept it privately, how can the ancestor do?"

"You're big!" Wang Xuelin rewarded his grandson with another chestnut, and then blew his beard and glared and walked away, he didn't want to care about this wooden stake that was older than him. (To be continued......)
