This trial of the Shuntian Mansion Ya, for the people who watched the excitement, may have broken the death sentences of more than 20 people at once, and the cane punishment and hard labor of several others for life, announcing that the autumn decision in the next period of time will be very interesting, then they are already satisfied. But for Zhang Shou, who also came to see the excitement today, it was really a bit lackluster.

There is no robbery field...... Oh, no, there was no such thing as someone blatantly breaking into the court, and then there was some earth-shattering reversal.

There was no one who was convicted in the public court and the Lord Yin of the mansion was the top, and then the latter party was angry and used torture to extract a confession, and the other party was rebellious and refused to die.

There is no palace to make the sudden arrival, which brings indescribable variables to this trial.

In short, for him, the excitement was not watched at all. Before, he even expected that Ding Hai, who was a villain in Cuiyun but talked a lot, would make achievements in the court, but he honestly confessed his guilt, and the legendary Wang Fu Yin did not chase after the mastermind behind the scenes.

Therefore, seeing that the Shuntian Mansion sent a messenger to loudly announce the result, and the onlookers gradually dispersed, he couldn't help but yawn quietly.

And I originally thought that I was lucky today and met Chu Ying, who had a good qualification and could try to accept an apprentice, which was extremely unpleasant. When he stood up, he saw that Zhang Shou also stood up, and he saluted and thanked him for his apology and said goodbye in an excellent manner, and he couldn't help but say: "My family lives in Dongcheng Mutton Hutong, and I often come to sit with me if I have nothing to do." ”

Qi Jingshan couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Lao Chu, I will lend Zhang Shou a small mansion, Lao Ge is almost inseparable from me, if he hears that you want to kidnap his apprentice, he still doesn't fight with you?" ”

"Hmph, I'll take care of him!" The mouth was tough, but Chu Ying looked at Zhang Shou's clean and refreshing face that was as clean as Ge Yong's back then, and couldn't help but step forward and gently pat the young man's arm, "The Guozi Supervision Department has withered to the present, and it is rare that the emperor is willing to revive it, you have to do a good job as a doctor of arithmetic!" When the Jiuzhang Hall is repaired, as long as you want, Lao Qi and I can also go to teach two classes! ”

Zhang Shou suddenly smiled, and then saluted again: "Then I will act as a substitute for the Guozijian in advance, and I will thank the two gentlemen!" ”

Seeing that Zhang Shou happily took Qiao Hu and Yang Hao to say goodbye and leave, Chu Ying walked to the window slowly, and suddenly turned his head sideways and said to his old friend on the side: "Even if it is Lao Ge, even if you and me, I liked to count the ten books since I was a child, but I still wanted to be a good official first, and then teach what we know to carefully selected students." But I seem to think that Zhang Shou doesn't care about being an official? ”

Qi Jingshan was slightly stunned, and then chuckled: "Because he is Zhao Guogong's future son-in-law and a student of Master Ge, and those of us who really want to see the day of the great prosperity of arithmetic will also support him." He doesn't have to go to the officialdom to fight like Lao Ge did in order to inherit the Ge clan, and he doesn't have to go up first with all his strength like us. ”

"People have no worries, but some people will fall into pleasure and indulge in sensuality; But there are also some people who will devote themselves to studying what they like, devote themselves wholeheartedly, and enjoy it. Zhang Shouma...... Maybe it's the latter, just like the princess of Chang'an back then. ”

Chu Ying's brows suddenly stretched, and then she breathed a sigh of relief: "You are right, life is worry-free, and you can naturally regard your interest as a lifelong pursuit." Although you and I didn't have that ability back then, fortunately, our lives are still quite long, and we can still study this arithmetic that I have loved since childhood. Alas, it is also our incompetence over the years, otherwise we would not have let the Jiuzhangtang of the Guozijian end up like that. ”

Qi Jingshan also sighed, and then smiled: "By the way, are you interested in going to Lao Ge?" The three of us didn't see the mystery of the thirteen letters, but they were first solved by a small character, and now we just go to calculate it? ”

"Hahaha, we can only be regarded as helping. Didn't you see that Lu Xuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, was in a hurry to become like that? Let's go and see if Old Man Ge has checked it clearly, hmph, being a teacher may not be as good as a student! ”

When the two old men who worked hard to be officials in the first half of their lives and worked hard to learn in the second half of their lives went to Gefu happily, Zhang Shou, who left the Zhigong Building and continued to wander on the road of the capital, found a place to take the two little guys to taste some famous snacks in the capital for lunch, and then unconsciously rode a horse to Dong'anmen Street in the east of the imperial city.

This is a main road into the palace, the officers and soldiers in bright armor on the side of the road stand like piles, all the way to Dong'anmen, and what surprises him is that along this street, in addition to the official offices on the old map of the Ming Dynasty such as Guanglu Temple and Siyi Pavilion, there are also some official offices that he did not expect at all.

Say...... The celebrant?

How could the celebrant come to the palace?

On both sides of Dong'anmen Avenue is not part of the royal road, there are still people in ordinary clothes walking, and official offices such as the Siyi Hall of Guanglu Temple, although there are two soldiers in front of the door, the garrison is not strict. However, not to mention the soldiers in front of the celebrant eunuch, there was not even a gatehouse, and all the passers-by took a detour, and Zhang Shou looked at it and unconsciously thought of the notorious factory guard.

Curious for a moment, he took Qiao Hu and Yang Hao, who were also from the countryside into the city, paced over slowly, and looked inside the door of the celebrant twice. And even so, there was no scolding and scolding from inside the door, and there was no movement at all, as if it was just a no-man's land.

Thinking of the request made by Chu Kuan in Yuehua Building before, he thought that his country's doctor had already taken office, but Chu Kuan still didn't have anything to say, so he simply walked directly to the edge of the high threshold, leaned out and shouted: "Is there anyone?" ”

Hearing that there was no movement in the door, Yang Hao and Qiao Hu glanced at each other, and the two little guys who had just poured a lot of tea and snacks in the teahouse, and who had eaten and drunk enough, immediately rushed forward.

"Little sir, are you looking for someone? Would you like us to go in and help you inquire? ”

"I'm loud, I'm here to call someone!"

Whether it is the pedestrians on the side of the road or the soldiers near the yamen, everyone can't help but look sideways. Where did this country boy come from, who dared to look at this deserted appearance and approach without knowing the height of the sky, and shouting nonsense? However, when they saw Zhang Shou's face clearly, most people couldn't help but be stupid. If you look good, you can provoke the celebrant and the foreign government who everyone avoids?

Although Zhang Shou was angry enough to stop the two little guys who were over-energetic, this noisy movement alarmed the people inside. After a while, a middle-aged man in a gray-brown robe appeared in front of them. This person has a rich round face and small eyes, and at first glance he looks like a rich man. After taking a look at Zhang Shou, he opened his mouth with a smile.

"Xiao Langjun, who are you looking for?"

The people who were secretly paying attention to this side couldn't help but bother their breath, waiting for the celebrant to suddenly turn his face after hearing the answer. However, in an instant, they were all stunned.

"I'm looking for Father-in-law Chu, is he there?"

Most of the time, he often laughs, but once he has an attack, he is more fierce than a ghost, and Lu Chan, the master of ceremonies, Lu Gonggong, is also stunned there. He stared at Zhang Shou and looked up and down, left and right for a long time, and finally came to his senses.

"Oops, it's you! My ancestors were still talking about you before! Rare guests, please come in, please come in! ”

Seeing that Xiao Langjun, who was still reckless and ignorant, was politely invited into the celebrant supervisor, and he didn't know how many eyeballs had fallen around. Soon, the news spread like a tornado to all the nearby yamen.

The second prince who was confined to the palace by the emperor before was finally released, and he has entered the outer office of the celebrant eunuch!

Why the Second Prince? Isn't this nonsense! It is said that the second prince has always been handsome, extraordinary, and very kind to others, but he rarely goes out of the palace, and he doesn't go out of Dong'anmen when he goes out of the palace, so they don't see it very much, but just those descriptions match the appearance of the young man just now.

Besides, it's not the second prince, the smiling tiger Lu Chan will be so respectful to people? also said that his ancestor, the father-in-law Chu Kuan, who will become the number one person in the future, is talking behind his back?

And Zhang Shou, who entered the celebrant supervisor, only glanced at the quaint, simple but not shabby houses on both sides, and he asked the middle-aged man who led the way in a curious tone: "This uncle, do you recognize me?" Dare to ask your name? ”

The other party spoke in a strong voice, and a few beards could be faintly seen on his chin, which was different from the Chang Ning he had seen before, who claimed to be serving by Concubine Yu's side. In case he is really not a eunuch, he calls his father-in-law, it doesn't matter if he makes jokes, and the gain outweighs the loss if he offends people.

Anyway, he comes from a time when men are called handsome guys and women are called beautiful women, and without knowing the origin of the other party, he will not lose a piece of meat by calling an uncle.

Uncle...... Lu Chan couldn't help but pause. From Xiao Lu or Xiao Zen when he entered the palace, to the later Gonggong Lu and the chief manager of Lu, except for the occasional casual clothes when he went to the market, those unknown hawkers would call him enthusiastically once or twice, and few people called him that.

But it's rare to hear this title, and it's better than the father-in-law and the manager, all of whom have to come kindly......

Therefore, Lu Chan was stunned for a while, and then said with a smile: "Dr. Zhang's appearance, the entire capital can't be found with lanterns, how can I be an exception?" I am the master of ceremonies and the supervisor of the hall, Lu Chan, and the justice of the Duke of Chu is the ancestor of my family, and he often mentions you! He's not on duty in front of the palace today, and he's just right here, so you're just in time! ”
