Yulian was curious about who Zhang Bai was waiting for, and after waiting for a long time, Zhang Bai's eyes kept looking in the direction of the palace. Hongyi asked curiously, "Sister, who did you say Zhang Gongzi was waiting for?" ”

Who is there to know who Zhang Bai is waiting for, Yulian looked at Zhang Bai's eager eyes. I don't know who Zhang Bai and the others will be, and I think this person is extraordinary. Although Zhang Bai has been in Taiping City for two years, he has no friends in Taiping City, and the closest ones are only the Liu couple in Jiming Lane.

In half an hour, only a middle-aged man dressed plainly dressed and covered with patches came out of the palace gate. The figure is not burly, and he is born with an unapproachable demeanor. Walks smoothly and does not match the makeup. If you change into a brocade dress, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are a member of the imperial court.

Zhang Bai walked a few steps forward quickly, and Yu Jian recognized this young man with rigorous writing at first sight. Since entering the main hall, I have been caring about this plainly dressed person with a look of a son-in-law. At first, I was a little curious, Zhang Bai didn't look like a famous son. But when I saw Zhang Bai saluting with Shuangshang, and then the praise in Shuangshang's eyes. Although I haven't seen it for a long time, I can see that this young man and the chief examiner, Master Hanlin, are acquainted with each other.

Over the years, how many scholars who have studied hard for ten years have failed to make the list, but the children of famous families who have not learned and have no skills can obtain Jinshi. This is no longer a secret, how many scholars would rather use all their money to clear the way after coming to Taiping City, hoping to get the favor of a high-ranking official. Especially the readers who please with strange articles, Yu Jian is even more abandoned. Scholars should be promoted by their knowledge and use their lifelong learning to benefit the people. Although there is Prime Minister Wang An who opens the door for students all over the world, there are Han Shi who please the minister.

Yu Jian's most admired in his life was Prime Minister Wang An, but he never agreed with Prime Minister Wang An's approach. Since the door is wide open for students from all over the world, why can't we pull out the drawbacks of the imperial examination for hundreds of years. The imperial court needs the pillars of talent, not just how to please the readers.

First, seeing that Zhang Bai was still waiting, he stepped forward and said with both hands: "Childe is waiting for me." ”

Zhang Bai hurriedly replied: "Xiaosheng Zhang Bai has seen my brother. ”

Yu Jian, who didn't add color, didn't say much, especially when he heard Zhang Bai's name in the newspaper. The good feeling of the previous moment was gone, and he couldn't help but look up at the woman in Tsing Yi behind Zhang Bai and was shocked. Readers have good articles and prefer beauties. Yu Jian has been studying hard with the cold window for more than ten years, but he has never married a wife. The moment I saw Yulian, I couldn't help but take a look at it, and I only felt that there would be such a beauty in the world.

Since the person Zhang Bai is willing to wait for must be extraordinary, Yulian stepped forward and saluted: "The little girl Ji Yulian has seen Mr. ”

Yu Jian lost his mind for a moment and was pulled back by Yulian's title. He lowered his body and saluted back: "Yu Jian, a student in Huizhou, is just an aspiring scholar who can't afford Miss Ji's husband." ”

Finding that Yu Jian was staring at herself, Yulian saluted again: "Mr. and Brother Zhang will talk first, men's affairs and women should not be involved." After saying that, he walked towards the carriage with his red clothes.

Hongyi said in a strange tone: "This Yu Jian is not a good person at first glance, and my sister doesn't need to keep staring at it if she looks good." Men are not good things, and they don't know how to converge when they are so old. ”

glanced at the red clothes angrily, and felt that Yu Jian was very strange, especially when he looked at his eyes, like a hungry wolf. It made Yulian feel uncomfortable, although she had only been to Chunlin Tower once. Yulian deeply remembered the way those people looked at her, if it weren't for Lin Zhong by her side, she wouldn't want to be in that place for a moment. Hongyi's words Yulian felt deeply, and from the bottom of her heart, she thought that Yu Jian was not a good person. At least he is not a gentle man to women, and he is even more unsightly than those gentlemen.

Guarding the carriage, Hongyi still kept talking, Yulian said, "Hongyi, you still said." ”

Lu Xiaozhao, who was sitting in the carriage helplessly, really couldn't get used to seeing someone make the owner unhappy, especially what Hongyi said in his mouth, and he was even more annoyed in his heart. How good a person is in his own family, it makes people feel like a spring breeze, and it is rare to hate a person so much. Puff jumped out of the carriage and took out a long sword from the carriage.

He said very angrily: "The owner is that guy who makes you unhappy, Xiaozhao will dig out the eyes of the dog day to make the owner angry." As he spoke, he took his sword with him.

Yulian hurriedly stopped and said, "Xiaozhao is just a stranger." Is it true that everyone on the road looks at me, and you go to gouge out other people's eyeballs. This is outside the palace to be a little more restrained, and beware of people mistaking you for an assassin. ”

Seeing Lu Xiaozhao obediently put away his sword, he breathed a sigh of relief, Lu Xiaozhao's temperament is different from the Lu family, but it is a little similar to Wen Xiaoming, and he will beat people if he doesn't agree. If it weren't for the fact that there was an old shopkeeper in the restaurant who could suppress the young man, I really don't know how much trouble I could make in Taiping City.

Yulian was guarding the carriage, I really didn't know what Brother Zhang had taken in this down-and-out man, not to mention the tattered clothes, and pretending to be tall. Yulian didn't know that the more she looked at Yu Jian, the more annoyed she became, even if she was shabby, Brother Zhang looked down on him if she was respectful, no matter how bad it was, it would be much better than you.

Zhang Bai told many questions on the test papers, and at first Yu Jian only replied simply, and even showed impatience. Zhang Bai was also very annoyed by Jane's eyes, I was talking to you about business and you pretended not to understand, so his eyes glanced at Yulian not far away from time to time. Zhang Bai really has nothing to say about Yu Jian, if he didn't think that Yu Jian's knowledge was worth asking, he would definitely not say a word.

Whenever it comes to questions and answers on the test papers, Yu Jian's answer, although simple, is to the point. If it weren't for this, Zhang Bai really didn't know how to talk to this Huizhou student, but after listening to a few points, Zhang Bai knew his own shortcomings. The same Liang was born in Qingzhou and has never been to the north, although he has read many gazetteers, it is always better to feel the local customs on the spot.

said: "There are still many things I don't understand, Yulian has prepared a banquet, and Brother Yu is willing to go to Lu's Restaurant with his younger brother to discuss in detail." ”

Zhang Bai really couldn't stand Yu Jian's arrogance, so he just said a word politely. Yu Jian really changed his posture and said: "Brother Zhang's request, how can Brother Wei not agree." "It's not at all arrogant and rude as before.

Just a kind word, Zhang Bai was really helpless. even regretted a little why he invited Yu Jian, but he just said that there was no chance of taking it back. As long as he walked forward with Yu Jian, he couldn't help but look down on Yu Jian a little in his heart.

When the two came over, Yulian shouted Mr. again in courtesy, and after Yulian and Hongyi got into the car, Zhang Bai and Lu Xiaozhao sat outside the carriage. Yu Jian unceremoniously entered the carriage, and Zhang Bai was even more annoyed by this Jian . The carriage didn't go very fast, and Lu Xiaozhao couldn't say anything when he saw Zhang Bai's dark face. Hearing that Yu Jian had been talking to Yulian in the carriage, he couldn't help but throw this rude scholar out.

said softly: "Zhang Gongzi didn't use me to cut off the sword of this dog day, don't worry that the person who can do it will not know it." From the carriage, Yulian and Yu Jian's words came out to deal with it more, and Lu Xiaozhao couldn't help it.

Yu Jian said: "Miss Ji has promised to marry someone. ”

Zhang Bai outside the sedan car was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect the red clothes to say straightforwardly: "My sister has already made a marriage contract with Liu Gongzi, and it has been agreed that Liu Gongzi will get married when he comes back from the border." Seeing that Yu Jian was still about to speak, Hongyi was not stingy: "Mr. Yu, you don't know, Liu Gongzi's name is Liu Zhixing, and he is the second son of Liu Shangshu, the current secretary of the military department of Lu Guogong." Don't say a talent, you can be civil and martial, and ordinary people don't dare to say a big word when they see a silver gun. Especially Liu Gongzi is now the Changfeng Army of Nanjing, forget Mr. Yu, you are from the north, maybe you don't know what the Changfeng Army is? ”

Yu Jian was speechless, thinking that the cold window contained the three-inch lotus tongue. Fighting with others and reasoning, he thinks that he is difficult to meet opponents. But I didn't expect to be speechless by a little girl today, and I didn't even gasp for breath after saying so much in one breath.

The red clothes twisted his temper and said: "Mr. Yu, the Changfeng army is the most powerful army in Daliang, and Liu Gongzi is now in charge of a battalion, maybe you haven't heard of it." But you must have heard of the name of the thirteenth battalion, Mr. That's a gift from His Majesty the Emperor. However, at the age of twenty, he can already command a battalion of 5,000 soldiers and horses, and he asked who has it today. ”

Along the way, Yu Jian opened his mouth many times, but was pressed down by the red-clothed tongue repeatedly, and the distance was not far, but there was also a distance. Ren is Yulian doesn't know how many advantages Liu Zhixing has, what a young general, what white armor and silver spear, what poetry and writing are unparalleled, what art of war is amazing, and what is a fierce general and a Confucian general. said as if he had really seen it, even Lu Xiaozhao, who was driving, was stunned when he heard it, he thought that he was already boundless, but he didn't expect that the mouth in red was even more powerful.

Along the way, Yulian couldn't stand Yu Jian's strange eyes, and got off the bus as soon as she arrived at the restaurant. It's just that I didn't expect to get out of the car and meet Yang Chen, who was wearing a shop guy's clothes, Yang Chen carried a piece of white cloth on his shoulder, and stepped forward and shouted: "The champion is here, someone is here for a banquet." ”

With Yang Chen's voice, no one in the restaurant moved, only Jing Qian, who was standing outside the door, looked innocent and seemed to say that I didn't know this person. The emperor has never been the champion of the emperor's list, and Zhang Bai recognized Yang Chen. stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Meet His Royal Highness." ”

Yang Chen's body lowered even more and shouted inside: "One champion." "It's made everyone boring, I really don't know what the prince is crazy about today, so I have to pretend to be a shop guy. Zhang Bai had no choice but to walk in, Yulian really didn't want to see Yang Chen's face, and pulled the red clothes to the side of the white-clothed Jingqian. When he walked to Lu Xiaozhao's side and saw that there was another person, Lu Xiaozhao just casually said that this person was also a candidate. Yang Chen shouted very loudly: "Bangyanlang is one." Lu Xiaozhao looked innocent, and hurriedly drove the carriage away, for fear that others would recognize him and know this person.

Yang Chen, who was playing happily, didn't expect this thirty-year-old scholar to pass in front of him without hesitation, and he didn't say a word. First, he was stunned and said: "I said that you are a role model and kicking your nose in the face, and you don't know how to give a reward, and you don't even give a good fortune." "As everyone knows, whenever someone mentions Yang Chen, he will say that he has a unique vision and can see his talent at a glance. Never mentions being treated like a shop guy.

It was supposed to be in an exclusive wing, but there was one more person, and Yulian directly asked people to rearrange a table. Zhang Bai first introduced Yu Jian to the old shopkeeper, and the old shopkeeper smiled at everyone. kept saying: "Reading people are good, reading to nourish qi, but I don't want the old man to be sour, it's not comparable." Zhang Gongzi wants to accompany the old man to drink a few more glasses today, the inscription promised last time has not yet been counted, and he must make up for it today to be seated, otherwise there will be no wine to accompany him. ”

Zhang Bai said: "The shopkeeper laughed, since it is a promised thing, it will naturally be counted." Brother Yu is not together, and make a good fortune. ”

Yu Jian glanced back at the busy Yulian, and the girl in white who seemed to have seen it somewhere, they were all extremely rare beauties. Only then did he turn his head and say, "Since Brother Zhang has spoken, he should write for his brother." ”

As the old shopkeeper shouted: "The four treasures of the above room." ”

A very strange-sounding voice came: "Okay. "Yang Chen, who has been learning the appearance of the shopkeeper, really doesn't have the appearance of His Royal Highness the Prince today. He lowered his body and spread out the fine rice paper, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Jing Qian, come over and grind the two masters of the champion." ”

The old shopkeeper smiled, after living for such a long time, he had never let His Royal Highness the Prince of the World be busy. Yang Chen's shout surprised Yu Jian, obviously no one present looked down on this handsome-looking shopkeeper. Seeing that the girl in white was very obedient and stepped forward, she was even more surprised, Jing Qian held her hand and grinded, but she was not a little annoyed, as if it was a matter of course.

Although Zhang Bai doesn't know Jingqian's identity, does the woman around Yang Chen need to think more? Apparently not needed. Only then did he pick up the pen Yang Chenle and said: "The champion master, the list of eyes, must write two copies, one to hang in the restaurant, and one small to hang at home." ”

Looking at Yang Chen's face and Zhang Bai mentioning the inscription, Yu Jian took a special look at Yang Chen, and then glanced at Zhang Bai, who wrote neatly, before putting down the pen.
