Chapter 108: I'll be back
Everyone looked at those utensils and had a headache, but the weak young man in the field did not stop for half a minute, he tidied up his clothes, burned incense and cleaned his hands, stepped forward calmly, and saluted one by one, kneeling when he should kneel, worshipping when he should worship, burning incense when he should burn incense, and sprinkling wine when he sprinkled wine, when doing these actions, he did not forget to introduce the original meaning of the etiquette, the season, the requirements, the prayers, etc., and the words in his mouth were no different from the heavy book in the hands of the king of Pingnan.
There was silence, the audience was deathly quiet, only the voice of the young man Lang Lang fell, and it did not subside for a long time.
is Miss Cheng Er, who boasts of being full of poetry, is also afraid of this heavy classic, but at this moment, the young man who is younger than her is all engraved with a board and a glance, and his movements are smooth, his demeanor is sadistic, and there is no sense of disobedience.
Cheng Zhen looked at the young man in a pale cotton coat and a solemn sacrificial dress in a daze, and after a long time, Fang came back to his senses. She looked up at her father, but saw that his always strict face was smiling and nodding constantly.
Cheng Zhen asked softly, "What does Daddy think, how is this son?" β
"Not bad." Cheng Kang looked at the middle of the field with a pair of eagle eyes, nodded and said in a low voice: "I saw him opportunistic and smooth-tongued before, and I thought he was that ignorant and frivolous person. But how can an ignorant young man perform this solemn and solemn etiquette? β
Cheng Zhen nodded, said no more, and looked at the field seriously.
Time passed minute by minute, and everyone did not know how long they waited until they saw the young man come out after his last salute.
But although this time has been long, this is usually a boring ritual, this time. But no one was impatient. Above the face. Gu is amazed.
"Childe is so virtuous." A scribe arched his hand and sighed: "I am deeply impressed. β
"I admire it too." Yiwufu also nodded and said: "I am usually not afraid of hardship or injury, just these etiquettes, every time I see it, I want to escape." Childe can control it so skillfully, and he is really ashamed of himself. β
"Indeed." Everyone else nodded in agreement, and looked at Tian Chuan's eyes, which was different from the previous joke, that is, even the title was from a child. It has become an honorific title like Childe.
"Childe, please." The crowd stretched out their hands.
"Please." Tian Chuan took a step back and asked King Pingnan to go first.
After the five rites, there are six joys.
The silent night, the quiet city, from the iconic six-fold pavilion, poured out a piece of ancient music light sound, the evening breeze floated, lightly sent into thousands of households, the city is full of the clear sound played. Countless people pushed the window or went out. Look up at the brightly lit building tonight.
When Gu Le stopped, everyone had a consciousness in their hearts: someone had broken through the fourth floor of Juxian Building.
Then, tomorrow morning, there will be another conversation, and the next few days will not be lonely.
In fact, Tian Chuan's six music attainments are not high, but at this time, everything is progressing, and he has an obsession in his heart.
After the six musics, there are the six books.
Six books, namely: pictograms, pictograms, pictograms, imagery, elephant sounds, transcribing, and borrowing.
At this level of the book, he was not alone, but Cheng Zhen, who was proficient in this way, personally went to the assessment.
Fortunately, Tian Chuan's six books were learned through hard work, and his skills were excellent, and it was not difficult in the past.
After six books, there are nine counts.
"As the bookkeeper's younger brother, why can't you embarrass your sister?" Before going on the field, the king of Pingnan, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Remember, once this pass is passed, one of the two of you can ring the golden bell, and I have a promise." β
Seeing the two nodding, he asked, "Who of you will come to this level?" β
Tian Chuan and Yang Xiao glanced at each other, and there was some hesitation in their eyes.
Arithmetic, Tian Chuan has no problem, but everyone knows that his sister Tian Mi is the real master of this way, and Yang Xiao learned it from her sister. He wasn't quite sure which of them was more suitable.
Immediately, he smiled at the crowd, then climbed Yang and turned to the side.
Tian Chuan asked, "Are you on or am I on?" β
Yang Xiao replied without hesitation: "You go!" β
God knows, although he is the first apprentice accepted by the girl, but his talent in accounting is really limited, as far as those various bookkeeping methods are concerned, he has made him a head and two big, and he is just a big disciple, and the girl's later requirements for him are only to understand and fool people.
Tian Chuan nodded, his arm clenched a little, and Hao said shamelessly: "This time this golden bell will be given to me." β
Yang Xiao hugged his chest with both hands, hooked the corners of his lips like an uncle, blinked his black and white eyes, looked at Tian Chuan with a smile and said, "Yes, the Liuxin Fire in the master's iron box, you stole it from me to study and study." β
Tian Chuan grinned, showed his white teeth and said: "It's really unfortunate, that baby master sent my sister, and it has been pressed on my sister's hand, if you are not afraid of death, you can pull my sister's little hand and come over to study." β
"Snort......" The corners of Yang Xiao's mouth twitched, and he stared at him speechless.
"Well, my brother will go back and show you the rainstorm mechanism, it is said that the lethality is comparable to the rainstorm pear flower needle on the rivers and lakes, it is a little girl, but you don't mind." Speaking of this, Tian Chuan didn't give Yang Xiao a chance to refuse at all, so he turned around and said to everyone with a smile: "I'll come." β
Although Tian Chuan's arithmetic is not as good as Tian Mi, he is Qiao Xuan's personal disciple, and his arithmetic skills are also quite good. Therefore, after some testing, although it took a little effort and the palms were a little sweaty, there was still a thrilling pass.
In the middle of the night, the lights of thousands of homes are extinguished, and suddenly under the silent sky, above the six-fold pavilion, the three bells of "knock, knock, knock" ring, the sound is clear and far away, quiet and empty, like the call of the gods and Buddhas, the sleeping people are awakened.
"I just heard the bell ring."
"I heard it too, go out and see, it's not something big."
In this era, the bell is not something that can be rung casually, except for the temple bell ringing is a routine practice, in other places, under normal circumstances, there will be no bell ringing.
Everyone got up in their clothes, looked at the place where the bell rang, and saw that it was Juxian Building, and their hearts were relieved. The gossip heart is burning again. between neighborhoods. Regardless of whether they understand it or not, they are all discussing and guessing, who has the ability to ring the golden bell of Juxian Building in Pingnan County?
Ordinary people are purely curious, but the houses of Dezhuang are contemplative, Juxian Building, as its name suggests, among them are sages and scholars, who can break through the sixth floor of Juxian. It must be a wise man among the Magi, and if he can recruit it, it would be very good. Immediately, there was movement in various prefectures, and people were sent to investigate.
The sound of the bell falling like a stone into the water immediately set off waves in the stagnant night.
And the bigger waves are still to come.
Lu Mansion, Dezhuang Mansion Yi Lu Dongwei's study.
"What do you say? This wise man who has just broken through the sixth floor of Juxian, is thirteen years old? Lu Dongwei sat behind the table and looked at the person opposite with a little shock. Now. He was dressed in a snow-white undershirt with a robe on top. Apparently just got out of bed.
The person opposite is also the person who accompanied him to Jin Ming at the beginning, but his master, who is in his thirties, surnamed Bo, and whose name is Yunfu.
Bo Yunfu nodded, the common smile in his eyes was a little helpless, and he continued: "It's a pityβ"
Lu Dongwei frowned suddenly, with an ominous premonition, and said, "What is a pity? β
Bo Yunfu shook his head helplessly and said, "It's a pity that this person is surnamed Tian and Mingchuan." β
"What's wrong with the surname Tian Mingchuan, what's this-" When the words came this, Lu Dongwei suddenly stopped, he remembered something, and said with a somewhat embarrassed face: "Isn't it Tian Mi's brothers and sisters?" β
Bo Yunfu had a guessed expression on his face, and said, "It's Tian Mi's younger brother." β
"Bang-" With a bang, a white porcelain teacup shattered and fell to the ground, and Lu Dongwei was a little bad for the whole person.
He wiped his fingers, pressed the handkerchief heavily on the table, and said with an embarrassed face: "I don't understand, why is it that the talented person who is finally looking forward to now is either Tian Mi or Tian Mi's brother." β
"Actually, there are her disciples." Bo Fuyun put his hands in his sleeves and silently added: "This time, it was actually two people who broke into the Xianlou, one of her younger brothers and one of her eldest disciples, but it was her younger brother who finally rang the golden bell." β
"Bastard, does that sound like a word? I really don't believe it, there is no one else in this world except her Tian family. Lu Dong stood up in order to brush his sleeves, walked around the case, and said: "You don't need to send someone to win over, his Tian family, this official is not rare!" β
He strode forward, took a few steps, and when he saw the shadow on the ground, he couldn't help but pause, and turned back unhappily: "If you don't go home yet, what are you doing with me?" I have made it very clear, even if I am thirsty for talents, I will never ask for their Tian family! β
Bo Yunfu still tucked his hands in his sleeves, and when he heard this, he lowered his head slightly, and said very calmly: "My lord, the lower official is afraid that you will recruit the lower official again." In this short period of time, it was troublesome to run back and forth, so I made my own decision and stayed. β
"Why should I come to you again in such a short period of time?" Lu Dongwei looked at him inexplicably, glanced at the dark sky again, and said, "In the middle of the night, what else can not be done?" β
Bo Yunfu but smiled silently.
"Anyway, I'm awake, and I can't sleep for a while, so I'll drink tea with you." Based on his long-standing trust, Lu Dongwei finally stopped his faith suspiciously, gathered his robe, turned around and walked towards the study again.
And at this moment, on the sixth floor of Juxian, next to the Admiralty, Cheng Kang asked Tian Chuan: "Have you thought about it, do you want to use this promise in exchange for the safety of your sister and your teacher, instead of adding officials to the knighthood and having a bright future?" β
Tian Chuan hooked his lips and smiled, looked up at him and said, "Of course." β
"I don't have the right to open the city gate, so I can only ask for personal favors, open a back door, and only take your relatives back." Cheng Kang said calmly.
"Thank you, King of the County." Tian Chuan knew that although Cheng Kang was the king of the county, he didn't care about the city gate, so he could only accommodate one or two, but this was enough for him.
Cheng Kang nodded, Miss Cheng Er and the other guests nodded, and then, when the group arrived downstairs, Cheng Kang immediately ordered to go down and send the carriage on his house and the people around him to bring his tokens out of the city to welcome people.
Tian Chuan was not at ease and asked to pick up the person in person, but Cheng Kang was not embarrassed, and immediately nodded in agreement.
In this way, four horses galloped the carriage of the Pingnan County Palace, galloped on the long street in the middle of the night, and galloped towards the city gate.
Outside the city, Tian Mi leaned on Qiao Xuan's shoulder, already asleep.
Qiao Xuan hugged her shoulders and ran away, wearing only a middle coat, and sat under the big tree. After three watches, it was more exposed, but he didn't even yawn, leisurely added branches, and looked after the fire.
Opposite them, surrounded the mother and son who first recognized Tian Mi, and the young man who later accused Tian Mi.
The woman looked at the darkness of the sky, and then at the closed gates, and her strong nerves were declining, and she murmured in disappointment, "The gates have not yet been opened." β
The young man also held on and did not sleep, because Qiao Xuan said that the city gate would be opened tonight, and they would be saved.
However, he was suspicious before it was opened, looked at the young man who was always calm, and said, "The third watch has passed, the city gate, will it really be opened?" β
"Yes." Qiao Xuan whispered softly, then pointed to the girl who was sleeping next to him, stretched out a finger, and made a silent finger.
Even if the young man wants to say anything, he has to give up now.
Time slipped slowly, the anticipation in everyone's eyes gradually receded, and when they were almost about to fall asleep, the sound of "squeak-" suddenly came from the sky, with a void-like silence and simple charm, sounded from the city gate.
"The gates of the city are opened!" Awakened by a dream, the young man suddenly jumped up and shouted in shock.
This sound woke up countless people in their dreams, and everyone opened their eyes dimly and saw the open city gate, thinking that they were in a dream, rubbing their eyes, and seeing that it was still open, they believed it was true.
Suddenly, there was no sleepiness at all, and they rushed to that place.
"Well, it's time, it's time to wake up." Qiao Xuan tilted his head, his cheek touched the girl's soft hair, he smiled, and whispered: "It's time to go to work." β
Tian Mi woke up suddenly, she stared blankly for a while, looked at Qiao Xuan's smiling face, and immediately understood the truth, but in her heart, she was not annoyed at all, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face.
"Sister, Brother Xuan-"
"Girl, masterβ"
Over there, the shouts of Tian Chuan and Yang Xiao came, and the two of them immediately raised their voices and responded, "Here." β
Picking up the crowd and walking in front of them, seeing the carriage of the Pingnan County Palace, Tian Mi also understood.
At that time, when they first came out of the city, wasn't it the carriage of the Pingnan County Palace? Soon after, Yang Xiao signaled that they had gone back. It can be seen that they went out in the carriage of the Pingnan County Palace. It is logical to ask for help after that.
Tian Chuan looked the two up and down, and said with concern: "Sister, Brother Xuan, are you okay?" β
The two shook their heads and said, "We're fine." β
Yang smiled on the side and said: "Let's go quickly, the officers and soldiers are almost unbearable, these patients are too crazy." β
Tian Chuan nodded, immediately got into the carriage with Yang Xiao, and turned around to see Tian Mi and Qiao Xuan still standing outside, he looked at these people with stretched hands, bit his lip and said, "Sister, Brother Xuan, let's go, we can't save them." β
Hearing this, Tian Mi took Qiao Xuan's hand and got into the carriage.
As soon as they stood in the carriage, before they could get in, a voice clearly came from the crowd: "Miss Tian, will you come back?" (To be continued......)
