In front of the beautiful, purple and green Jinluan Palace, the names of the new science and technology scholars should be announced by "when today's son" in a grand manner, at this moment, his head still "buzzed", and at this moment, the scene in front of him immediately became trance.

I'm the champion!

The ancestors of the ancestors are the top of my high school again!

I've won the top prize!

In a half-dream, in the light music like a gossamer, with the singing of the celebrant in a low voice, eight first-class jinshi saluted the emperor, and the salute was led by the salute officer to kneel down to the emperor to thank him and welcome the list. He didn't see what the emperor was wearing, let alone what the people around him were wearing?

At this time, he was immersed in this realm of emptiness, and he was completely immersed in the joy of being a high school champion. Even the whole person is muddy and completely at the mercy of others.

After leaving the Forbidden City under the send-off of the ministers, the Shuntian Mansion Yin, who had long been on the side, greeted him again. Personally sent the Sanding Jia, opened the main gate of the Forbidden City, and then swaggered out, to the color shed set up on East Chang'an Avenue to eat hairpin wine. Let the thousands of passers-by along the street admire the demeanor of Sandingjia there, this is the so-called "Royal Street Praise Official", the program for hundreds of years has remained unchanged, although it is unchanged, but throughout the ages, I don't know how many readers are yearning for this "Royal Street Praise Official" scene. Aspire to be the protagonist in it.

As the protagonist of "Royal Street Praise Official", all these etiquettes made him confused, like a marionette walking with the crowd, his heart was like light and dark, like joy and sorrow, but fortunately, nothing went wrong.

If something goes wrong, he will laugh and be generous. It will make people laugh at it for a lifetime, and it may even ruin the future.

When the ceremony was over, the three dingjia broke up, and the people who watched the praise of the officials dispersed, he became a little out of shape wearing a red new champion Ji suit. Seeing that no one came out to "pay respects" at the door of a shop next to the road, he turned around and ordered the official of the Ministry of Rites to send him back to his house to stop, and then dismounted and entered the store. I saw that the boss was shirtless on his upper body, and he was only wearing a pair of pants on his lower body to cool off. At first sight, when he saw this man with a golden flower on his head and wearing a new red jinshi robe, he was startled at first, panicked, and when he hurriedly grabbed his clothes, he couldn't find them, so he knelt down on the spot and saluted. Standing outside the door, he didn't buy anything, and stared at the boss stupidly.

"I won the top prize."

"The little one just came back from Chang'an Avenue and saw that you were old."

The shopkeeper replied truthfully.

"You are always the champion, the first in the world!"

The short and chubby shopkeeper smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed and he stretched out his thumb and shook it. Then the compliment immediately followed.

"In the future, we must be the old man!"

"Oh......"

He threw a silver horn and used it as a reward. Those who say good things always give some reward.

"You've ......"

At this time, I was waiting for the shopkeeper to continue to kowtow and thank you. The shopkeeper with a greasy face and a flattering appearance suddenly said sharply.

"Who wants your traitor's money! Lao Tzu wants your dog's head! ”

In this loud shout, I saw that there was an extra knife in the shopkeeper's hand at some point, and it pounced on him! The knife actually slashed directly at his head.

"Ahh

In the midst of the scream, Huang Tianyun woke up, and the moment he woke up from his sleep, he hurriedly touched his head and muttered loudly.

"The head is still there, the head is still ......"

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the room was not the shop, and it was only then that he realized that he was drenched in sweat......

After this nightmare, people naturally couldn't sleep, and Huang Tianyun, who had palpitations, was still a little panicked in his heart after drinking a cup of tea.

Is this a sign?

Huang Tianyun, who couldn't calm down, did it for a while, and then left the inn.

Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, but at noon, the sun is still a little summer stuffy, which will be in the dean to take a break in the cool, eat melons, drink tea, few people come out. And Huang Tianyun, who woke up from his sleep, didn't feel that it was hot, he was just walking along the street alone, his mind was thinking a lot, thinking of that dream, and naturally thinking of the academy he applied for a few days ago.

A few days ago, after coming to Qinghe, he and Gong Chengqi applied for the academy under a pseudonym, wanting to find a career, but the exam questions were simple, and he could pass the exam. If he hadn't been so confident, he would never have been able to live with that dream.

Thinking of that dream, Huang Tianyun's mind was in turmoil. I thought about it with palpitations.

"Is this a sign?"

But what are these signs?

Could it be that he was telling him that if he wanted to be the top student in high school, he would definitely lose his life at that time.

However, there is no possibility that he will win the top prize at all?

When he continued to walk forward, he saw a restaurant in front of him, a big willow tree in front of the two doors, and a white cloth tent on the east side of the façade, and the braised pork that had just come out of the pot was placed on the table under the canopy. A girl sat next to her and stood guard. Somewhat distraught, he walked over and saw a man sitting at the counter in the storefront, wearing a snow-white bamboo cloth coat, holding a fan in one hand and a notebook in the other.

"Come, cut me a pound of braised pork, and warm a pot of wine!"

At this time, maybe there is only wine to kill your sorrows,

A pot of wine, a pound of meat, and a plate of fried pea rice.

"Could it be that this sign means that if it is the imperial examination, it will be a dead end."

Huang Tianyun looked at Liu Si who was gently swaying in the breeze in a daze, and said while drinking.

"In other words, God let me stay here so that I can have a way to live?"

But then he shook his head again.

"No, that person clearly said that I will definitely become the old man in the future?"

Frowning, Huang Tianyun's mind flashed with all kinds of thoughts, but it was difficult to calm down for a while, and in the end, he had to drink and eat there at the same time, and his brows were even tighter. Even after drinking the wine, he still didn't pay attention, and then ordered another pot, and drank while eating the meat.

"That man said that he was going to kill a traitor. And said that he was the old man of the pavilion, this is the official of the Ming Dynasty, where is there any pavilion elder in the Qing Dynasty. Isn't this God trying to say something to himself through this dream? ”

At the end, he looked up at the wicker swaying gently in the breeze, looked at the street outside the door, looked at the people on the street, and suddenly, he laughed at himself.

"When Huang Liang wakes up from a dream, Huang Tianyun! Huang Tianyun! You're Han after all! If you don't come to your senses again, maybe your life will be gone. ”

Finally, after saying these words, Huang Tianyun seemed to have found the answer, for him, who is nearly forty years old, this is the first time he has given himself a reason other than to be promoted and make a fortune, and before that, all he thought about was to get promoted and make a fortune, it seems that for him, there is no other pursuit in life except for being promoted and getting rich, except for "praising officials in the royal street".

Even the reason why he insisted on going south to become an official under the persuasion of his relatives was because of his ambitions, and what he did was nothing more than his rapid prosperity.

And today, he has found another reason, a reason to stay here - he is Han!

That's right!

I am a good son of the Han family, why do I want to be a slave for the Manchu Qing Dynasty?

Of course, the most critical reason why he chose to stay here was not because he recognized his identity, but because he was afraid that one day after the Ming Dynasty regained the world, he would liquidate traitors like him at that time.

"If you can be an official here, when the Ming Dynasty wins the world again in the future, you may be able to save your life!"

Thinking that he would already be an official of the Ming Dynasty in the future, how could the liquidation of the traitors at that time come to his head, Huang Tianyun couldn't help but secretly applaud his choice, and then secretly thought to himself.

"Now the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it is the time to employ people, maybe when the time comes, you can also be the governor of a province, and even when the dynasty is not necessarily, maybe God is borrowing this dream to tell yourself how to choose, you must not choose the wrong ......side at this time."

"Isn't that the truth, when a traitor is a traitor, he will definitely lose his head. But if you stay here, you may be able to be the old minister! ”

When Huang Tianyun was eating meat and drinking wine in the restaurant and imagining the future, Gong Chengqi was reading books in the academy, of course, after reading the books for a long time, he even chatted with some people in the academy about the current situation, although he could see some news in the newspapers, but in this academy he could always get more news, and because of this, he learned that some news was not published in the newspapers. It was precisely these news that made Gong Chengqi, who had already applied for the academy, fall into a panic in the future, and finally he even sat in the academy park, where he repeatedly pondered whether his choice was right or wrong.

"It's too reckless, it's too reckless!"

Sitting on a wooden chair in the park, Gong Chengqi muttered to himself.

"I think you Gong Chengqi was so shrewd at the beginning, why are you so reckless now, completely confused by Huang Tianyun's rats, he actually gave birth to such a desire to abandon his master, and even did something to reduce the thief!"

The reason why Gong Chengqi talked to himself like this was because he found that this Ming Dynasty was not as he imagined, it was the time to comply with the mandate of heaven, and even from the mouths of those scholars in the academy, he learned that this Ming Dynasty could now be said to be in danger. It's not as beautiful as it looks from the outside.

Naturally, Huang Tianyun, who completely blamed the decision he had made before, in his opinion, if it wasn't for Huang Tianyun's bewitchment, he would not have betrayed his master no matter what.

"It's okay, it's okay, there is still room for salvation, and we can't do such a wrong thing again!"

Secretly screaming and rejoicing, glad that there was still room for redemption, Gong Chengqi got up and walked towards the inn where she lived, she thought a lot along the way, and finally made up her mind, as a slave, you must not betray the master, not to mention that the master still has the grace of knowing and supporting him, if he betrays the master at this time, where is the conscience?

When he walked to the inn, as soon as he pushed the door open, he happened to see Huang Tianyun who was covered in the smell of wine, the two of them have lived in this inn for the past few days, and have even become friends, but when he saw Huang Tianyun, Gong Chengqi was full of dissatisfaction with him. After all, it seemed to her that if it wasn't for the person in front of her who bewitched him, how could he have almost made a big mistake. Naturally, this face becomes difficult to see.。。

"Brother Gong, what are you doing here? But went to the academy? It's not that the list will be released in two days, look at you! ”

Huang Tianyun only thought that Gong Chengqi was going to see if there was a list, so he said with a smile.

"After waking up, I didn't look for you, so I went to drink some wine by myself, you came just in time, the braised vegetables in this house are really good, come, you and my brother have two glasses, it's all a celebration of Tixing!"

"Celebrating? What is celebrated? ”

Gong Chengqi stared at Huang Tianyun and asked, In that tone, you have a past closeness.

"But celebrate the thief? It's really a shame that your surname Huang is still blessed by my Great Qing Kingdom, I never thought that you would be a thief so quickly, it's really hateful! ”

Looking at Gong Chengqi in surprise, Huang Tianyun's face was full of puzzlement, and he didn't know why he had the attitude he had now. Looking at Gong Chengqi who had just come back from outside in some surprise, Huang Tianyun continued.

"You, what's wrong with you? How do you talk like that? ”

Obviously, in the morning, the two of them still have to talk together that they will take care of each other after entering the academy in the future, and when he enters the mansion as an official in the future, they will also help each other and support each other.

But who would have thought that just half a day later, Gong Chengqi actually said such a thing, as if he had completely changed as a person. How can this not surprise Huang Tianyun.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Humph! What's wrong? ”

Staring at Huang Tianyun, who seemed to be puzzled, Gong Chengqi asked after a while.

"Brother Huang, have you already made up your mind to surrender the thief?"

Thieves?

In the morning, didn't you still say that you were going to return to the Ming Dynasty? How can this become a thief again?

"Brother, what's the matter with you?"

Looking at Gong Chengqi in surprise, Huang Tianyun asked rhetorically.

"Are you crazy, we have all discussed, but you want to return to the Ming Dynasty? What thief is not a thief? ”

What's more, this is the world of the Ming Dynasty. actually said that Da Ming is a thief? Is it okay to talk nonsense about this?

Looking at Gong Chengqi puzzled, Huang Tianyun was speechless for a while. Absolutely unknown why he became so fast.

Staring at Huang Tianyun, Gong Chengqi said gloomily.

"Brother Huang, if you are determined to surrender to the thief, then from now on, you and I will be separated, Gong Mou, as an official of the imperial court, cannot be ignored by the emperor's grace. It is categorically not going to betray the court and surrender to the pirates! ”

"What!"

Looking at Gong Chengqi in surprise, Huang Tianyun's eyes were full of incomprehension. What does he mean by that?

Staring at Gong Chengqi, Huang Tianyun smeared a hint of joke on his face, but to his surprise, all he could find was a serious look.

"I'm afraid Brother Huang doesn't know that Li Ziyuan has already submitted the form to Zheng Chenggong!"

Gong Chengqi reminded Huang Tianyun with his words, if it weren't for the fact that he learned the news in the academy. I'm afraid that he will really be like Huang Tianyun, thinking that now the Qi of the Great Qing Kingdom has been exhausted, and the Qi of the Great Ming Kingdom is booming.

But this news made Gong Chengqi see the hidden dangers behind the Ming Dynasty's national qi, how could he win the world when there were many internal contradictions?

If you really defect to Daming, you may really lose your life at that time. This is a real gentleman standing under a dangerous wall.

As a smart person, Gong Chengqi naturally couldn't make such a mistake. Of course, the experience of suffering with Huang Tianyun these days made Gong Chengqi not want to see him go astray and delay his own life. That's why I spoke persuasively.

"You say, if that's the case, what else does the daimyo have to say?"

Gong Chengqi's words made Huang Tianyun ask rhetorically.

"How is this possible, he, isn't he Li Ziyuan Zhang Huangyan's person? It's impossible! ”

How is this possible?

Li Ziyuan is a fierce general under Zhang Huangyan, how can he defect to Zheng Chenggong, after all, Zheng Chenggong's famous generals are like Lin, how can he do this?

Huang Tianyun's heart was full of puzzlement, he didn't know why there was such a change?

Originally, wasn't everything fine on Daming's side?

How could the man surnamed Li do such a thing? And Zheng Chenggong won't necessarily want the surname Li, right?

"The news I just learned has basically spread throughout Nanjing."

Seeing that Huang Tianyun shrank in surprise, and his face was also for it, Gong Chengqi's eyes flashed with a look, knowing that this Huang Tianyun was probably also flustered, so he said coldly:

"Don't you see that? This surnamed Li Yi took refuge in Zheng Chenggong, Zhang Huangyan and Zheng Chenggong will inevitably become a fire and water situation, and when the time comes, the two families will even have continuous infighting, and may even kill each other, so how can the number of this thief last long - if you take refuge in the thief today, when he is defeated by the thief, you will be a puppet official of the thief, and it will naturally be difficult to protect the first level, and when the time comes, even Gong will not be able to save you! ”

Before he finished speaking, Huang Tianyun was already like ashes, and he sat down in shock, like an idiot. His lips trembled slightly involuntarily.

"How, how can this be, how can this be...... This, this can't be! ”

Huang Tianyun, who was sitting on the chair, looked panicked, he finally made up his mind, how could he end up like this.

That's not right!

It's completely different from what I dreamed of in my dreams!

Didn't that dream say it? As long as he defects to Daming's side, not only can he save his life, but he may also be able to soar in the future! Old Ge is just around the corner.

Why is it like this now?

"Li Ziyuan is a fierce general under Zhang Huangyan, how can he defect to Zheng Chenggong, after all, Zheng Chenggong's famous generals are like Lin, how can he do this? No, it won't......"

Huang Tianyun blinked, his eyes were no longer straight, and his body seemed to tremble.

"This must be a rumor! It must be! ”

After saying this repeatedly, he had completely recovered his senses, and only looked at Gong Chengqi in a daze, and only smiled at himself for a while:

"Eat...... Eating too much and getting drunk...... Brother Gong, you, why did you use such rumors to deceive me? ”

Definitely!

Definitely yes, it must be Gong Chengqi here to deliberately use rumors to make me happy.

"Hey, brother, why do you and my brother have to make such jokes."

Looking at Huang Tianyun, who was deceiving himself, Gong Chengqi pushed the tea bowl to his hand and said.

"I see that you have drunk too much ecstasy soup, and if you want me to say, do you think you can not face this matter by deceiving yourself like this? You don't want to think about it, if it weren't for the change in the general situation, how could I have changed my mind as soon as I woke up! ”

I don't know why!

Maybe it was the reason why it was difficult for the patient, Gong Chengqi said bitterly to Huang Tianyun.

"In this world, you and I are just small people, and the smaller the person, the more cautious you have to do it, you know? There is a providence in the underworld, and the qi of the Qing Dynasty yesterday seems to be exhausted, but God blesses, the qi of the Qing Dynasty is back, but it is the Ming Dynasty...... I think this gas is about to run out! ”

Gong Chengqi looked at the drunken Huang Tianyun, with a bitter look, he didn't want his difficult brother to lose his life because of a momentary mistake.

Suddenly, Huang Tianyun felt a little angry at what Gong Chengqi said, and he didn't say anything with a cold face. Seeing his appearance, Gong Chengqi knew that he couldn't accept it for a while, so he got up and said.

"Think about this matter yourself, it's too urgent to regret it now!"

Hearing Gong Chengqi say this, Huang Tianyun, who was still a little flustered in his mind, calmed down instead, he looked at Gong Chengqi, thinking of the shopkeeper who suddenly got up to kill him in his dream.

Maybe this dream is to remind him of this incident in front of him. If the mind, if not firm. Wrong choices will definitely be made. At that time, the knife in the shopkeeper's hand will naturally fall on his head.

That's right! That's what the dream must have meant.

As if he had made up his mind, Huang Tianyun stood up and bowed his hand to him, and said in a firm tone.

"Brother Gong, I am a Han Chinese, this regret is categorically unrepentant, no matter what, I will no longer recognize the thief as my father, and I will be willing to be a traitor!"

After saying this, Huang Tianyun didn't pay attention to the other party, and then walked away on his own.

Looking at Huang Tianyun who was leaving, Gong Chengqi couldn't help but let out a long sigh, looking at his back and muttering to himself.

"Hey, that's it, that's it, I've done my best to you. Since you want to go all the way to the dark. It's your choice. ”

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this choice of mine!

Huang Tianyun was walking alone on the street, and at this time, his drunkenness had woken up a lot. He said to himself as he walked.

"I'm Han, I'm Han! It's definitely the right choice! In the future, the world will definitely be the world of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Just talking to himself, unconsciously Huang Tianyun walked to the yamen of the envoy of the war, looked at the flag floating in front of the yamen, and looked at the huge word "Ming" on it, Huang Tianyun clenched his fists tightly and said to himself again.

"That's right, it's definitely right, in the future, Huang will definitely be able to enter this yamen and work for the Ming Dynasty......"
