Volume 1: Yanyu Jiangnan Chapter 29 Chess Game 10

Rannuo thought for a moment and said.

Yan Chenyi smiled and shook his head: "Actually, it's not like this. I had noticed him a long time ago, from the moment I saw his exam papers.

"That year, the emperor asked me to read the papers in order to train me, but I was reluctant, and I was simply drowsy after reading a stinky and long article that whitewashed the peace.

His answer sheet struck me. His handwriting is very upright, just like his own. The language of the article is concise, there is not a word of nonsense, it hits the nail on the head, and its eloquence can be seen in every inch.

Originally, it was decided that he would be the champion, but he didn't expect that the exam paper would be manipulated by another invigilator, and after the champion became a powerful person, that is, Xiaofeng's younger brother, Feng Lingbai. ”

Ran Nuo's eyes flashed when he heard the words "Feng Lingbai", and a self-deprecating smile overflowed from the corners of his mouth.

Yan Chenyi noticed Rannuo's small action, and he was puzzled in his heart.

"Actually, I didn't know that the paper was his at that time, and I didn't know until the list was released.

"I thought that the person who could write such an article must be a handsome scholar who is elegant and elegant, but I didn't expect it to be an ordinary nerd.

"Because he was kicked out of the inn, he made a living by selling calligraphy and paintings, but this was only enough for him to eat one meal a day.

Even so, he refused to beg. How can such a young man like a bright moon and a clear breeze ...... Ay.

So I changed from simple admiration to admiration for him at the beginning, and I felt that it was unfair to him in the matter of the imperial examination, but I couldn't stand out at that time.

So I thought of another way to compensate him.

"It's a pretense to hear him chant poetry, he is really easy to deceive, can I hear him chanting poetry across half a mile?

He stayed in Chang'an for three years and did not return home, but his family letters never broke. He is worthy of his parents, his wife and his children. How heartache did he have when his son died...... It was my fault for not being able to protect him. ”

Rannuo pursed his lips: "No, it's not your fault. It's the fault of those who have bad intentions, you are walking on thin ice in Chang'an, and you can't care about others at all. He never blames you, he has always been, willingly. ”

Yan Chenyi bent the corners of his lips: "Otherwise, how can you say that he is a fool...... Once, Xiao Feng couldn't stand his stupid appearance, and dragged the two of us to Qingdai Pavilion, guess what?

When he saw the group of girls, he ran, blushing like a persimmon, which made a group of girls laugh at him, and also made Xiaofeng laugh at him for a long time.

But since then he ran away when he saw Xiaofeng, and he said that he was afraid of Xiaofeng, and his wife would be angry when he went to Qingdai Pavilion again

"Sometimes we cook wine and listen to the rain together, play games together and read books together, talk about world events behind closed doors, and only talk about poetry and songs when we open the door......"

The drizzle outside the house was slanting and the wind was slanting, and the red candles in the house were crying, but Ran Nuo listened quietly, and occasionally responded to a couple of sentences. There is an indescribable tacit understanding between them.

She knew that in less than a day, Yan Chenyi had been stimulated too much, he didn't say anything, but Ran Nuo knew in his heart.

"He has been my doorman for three years, nominally a doorman, but in fact he is a confidant who talks about everything. Xiaofeng said that for a while he began to be jealous.

"In the three years under my tutelage, the style of his articles has not changed, but he has learned to weigh between the words, and he has learned to protect himself, which is a good thing. So he fell for Tanhualang.

"I originally intended to keep him as an official in the court, but then somehow, I was sent to Gusu by the emperor Lao'er to find a mistake.

"I went to plead with the emperor Lao'er, but he stopped me and advised me not to act rashly, so as not to make the queen suspicious.

"I originally thought that Gusu has beautiful mountains and clear waters, a long history, and an important transportation place, which is also a beautiful difference, so I let him go.

"He said, I don't have too close contact with officials, so I cut off contact.

"I still remember, that day I saw him off, and he said, 'Lord, my subordinates will live up to the kindness of the prince, serve as an official, and benefit one party. When I return one day, I will talk to the prince about the world with wine. ’

"I didn't expect it to be my last meeting with him, I overestimated my own abilities and underestimated the sinister nature of officialdom and people's hearts...... Heh......"

"It's not your fault," Ranno said suddenly, "and I don't blame him." I don't know the rights and wrongs of your court and officialdom, I only know that this world is inherently unfair. ”

Yan Chenyi raised his head and met Rannuo's eyes: "So, we have to work hard to make it fair." ”

"Hmm."

The eyes of the teenagers reflected each other, the candlelight, and, the world.

"Let's talk about it again, and it will feel better to say it." Ran Nuo said softly, his voice as if he was afraid of shattering something

"Once......"

The night is long, some people are busy chasing down cases, some people are busy fighting under the moon, and some people invite confidants to sit together, talking about the past.

Yan Chenyi yawned, even he couldn't tell how long he had been talking, he hadn't said so much for a long time.

Yan Chenyi tilted his head and saw that Ran Nuo had fallen asleep on the table.

Rannuo had a faint smile on her face, such a gentle girl, even when she fell asleep, she smiled.

His eyes swam to Rannuo's closed eyes, and Yan Chenyi found that there was a dark circle around Rannuo's eyes, and his heart was filled with distress.

Originally, her work and rest were punctual, and she never fell behind in morning and evening classes, but she didn't close her eyes for two days and one night with them, and she was injured and came out to run around for a day, and she never shouted bitterly or tiredly.

Yan Chenyi smiled and shook her head, what a silly girl, bent down and picked her up horizontally and put her on the bed, carefully gave her the quilt, and turned around and walked out of the house.

He Qianyun sat on the tree, and when he saw him come out, he jumped down: "Sleeping? ”

"Hmm."

"I followed those two people today, found the thief's nest, and let Yi Shuijun copy it, and I can be tried in court tomorrow. But...... There is not much private salt here.

"I think there should be somewhere else. That's right...... What about the little wind? He Qianyun suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Feng Suixin for almost a day.

"Xiaofeng went to the place where the Jiedu envoy army was stationed, he was a general, don't worry about it."

"Hmm. That big young master lied to us? ”

Yan Chenyi said while gesturing: "Actually, Xiao Nuo interrogated him when he was interrogated. I wanted to beat the grass first, and then lure the snake out of the hole, and deliberately let him say that. ”

He Qianyun snorted coldly: "Old fox." ”

Yan Chenyi said modestly: "Each other." ”

"How's the case going?"

"Hey," Yan Chenyi rubbed his temples, "Jiedu and Thorn Shi have left a big mess, people have lives and money, and there are some trivial things, and they have to be cleaned up for a while."

"We have to stay in Gusu for ten days and a half months, and it will take at least half a month for the imperial court to make a decision after receiving the news. Bear with it, I'm tired these days. ”

"I never count on the imperial court, the imperial court has always been unreliable." He Qianyun said disdainfully.

"I agree with you on this, this time the officials of Gusu are going to change the water." Thinking of the queen's angry appearance, Yan Chenyi was inexplicably a little happy.

"Isn't there anyone down there available?"

"There are a lot of flattery and small abacus like that long history, do you think it can be used by people who have the master?" Yan Chenyi said, shaking his head.

“…… The imperial court hasn't paid attention to the wrong thing with the festival for so many years? ”

"Or do you say that the emperor and the court are useless now? Do you think a queen can control so much? In addition to the queen, there is also the power of the King of Ze and the Night King, all over Jiangmi. ”

"Your own father would dare to say that."

"Huh." Yan Chenyi smiled self-deprecatingly.

"What about those officials?"

"Envy and power. Rectify and rectify, and when the new officials come, they don't dare to chatter. ”

"So trust that new officer?"

Yan Chenyi sneered: "As long as these officials below Gusu don't chatter, they still have some real talents." But if the court has a little brain, it knows who to send. ”

"Come on, you figured it out over there, Queen? Why hasn't Jinling's matter been dealt with yet? He Qianyun raised his eyebrows and said.

"Jinling Taishou first ran to Gusu, and then went to Lin'an, which is under control for the time being."

"Is it possible that these two things are related?"

Yan Chenyi was silent for a while: "Maybe." ”

"I have a guess."

The eyes are facing each other.

After a long time, Yan Chenyi slowly spoke: "Go, take Yi Shuijun with you." There is Fei for you to use. ”

He Qianyun walked out with a sword: "No need. ”

Yan Chenyi glanced at Youfei in the shadows lightly, Youfei understood, and followed up.

Early the next morning, the case was raised to trial.

No matter how the leading salt dealer tried, he gritted his teeth and didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the court was a little awkward for a while.

Yan Chenyi was shocked and sneered: "Are you still expecting to delay the time to let them go?" ”

The man jerked his head up: "What did you do to them?" ”

"Naturally, it is dealt with according to the law."

"Hahahahaha......"

"What are you laughing at! Defying the law above the court, coming, slapping the mouth! ”

Immediately, someone stepped forward and slapped his mouth. Before this matter was over, the crowd shouted: "What a Yi Wang, okay, just because he is a prince, he will beat people casually?" You're lynching! If others don't say it, you force it to say? ”

Ran Nuo's green muscles jumped suddenly, this is not endless, is it? Are you annoyed?

Yan Chenyi's face did not change: "If you have the ability, you can stand up and say, what kind of ability is it to shout and disturb the people's hearts in the crowd."

"Should you tell the truth in court, and you can't defy the law? How, the law you wrote?

"Selling illicit salt, despising the government, and harming my people, should have been cut with a thousand cuts, why can't they be beaten?"

The crowd fell silent in an instant.

After finishing the palm here, Yan Chenyi said: "It's just a dead word, what are you stubborn about, why do you have to suffer more from these flesh and skin." ”

The man said: "Even if you die, you have to be a good man, I won't say it." ”

Yan Chenyi laughed out loud: "Hero? You sell illicit salt, and at worst, you are greedy for money.

"To put it more seriously, it is to seek money and kill people, and mistake me for Jiang Mi! Above, sorry for the country, down, sorry for the people, what kind of hero are you? ”
