24, Duan Wang Li Congyao
"I'm hungry."
Jun Qinglan's answer was very realistic, without the slightest fancy explanation. Jiang Yufan was choked half to death by his truth, and he couldn't speak for a while.
Jun Qinglan swallowed the pine nuts in two bites, her eyes burned, and she was waiting for Jiang Yufan's green bamboo chopsticks: "Do you eat?" I don't let you eat the trouble. ”
"This is mine!" Jiang Yufan was furious, and simply pulled the plate directly in front of him.
"Yes, yes." Jun Qinglan glanced at him, Jiang Yufan was very good at protecting food, and there was no possibility of starting at all. So he was a little stupid: "Originally, I invited you to dinner, for fear of being robbed." ”
Jiang Yufan ignored her and pinched the pine nuts and stuffed them in his mouth. After only one bite, he frowned fiercely, and spit on the ground: "So sweet!" ”
Jun Qinglan looked at the toothache: "Waste, waste." ”
"You're a big man." Jiang Yufan frowned and said, "Why do you like to eat these sweet and greasy things that women love to eat?" ”
Jun Qinglan's expression froze for a moment, but it only took a moment to return to normal: "Zhenwei Zhai's things, only these are the cheapest early." ”
Jiang Yufan squinted his eyes: "If you go out to eat with me, can you really ask you to pay?" ”
Jun Qinglan smiled: "You always have a treat, how can you be embarrassed?" ”
"If that's the case, this meal can't be counted, and you'll have to eat it yourself. You'll have to treat me to a meal at noon. ”
"I'm afraid it won't work." Jun Qinglan smiled: "Let's eat well, we have to leave as soon as possible." ”
"Where are you going?"
Jun Qinglan wiped her mouth and got up: "Guozijian." ”
"Guozijian?" Jiang Yufan was taken aback, but he stood still and did not move: "I am most tired of seeing those sour Confucian students in my life, what are you going to do in that place?" ”
Jun Qinglan glanced at him, full of hatred and helplessness: "Didn't the deceased Cui Tai just enter the Gongsheng of the Guozijian not long ago?" ”
"Oh!" Jiang Yufan patted his head and suddenly realized: "Cui Tai's case has eyebrows?" ”
"Let's go, let's go!" Jiang Yufan has an almost paranoid obsession with investigating cases, but whenever he hears that there is a case, he can instantly ignite the enthusiasm around him. Before Jun Qinglan could speak, he had already walked out of the door quickly.
The two walked to the Confucian Temple in Dong'anhuafang in the inner city and stopped. Guozijian was built next to the Confucian Temple, and it was the time to give lectures, and the whole street was quiet, and there were not many pedestrians. Jiang Yufan was anxious at the beginning, but when he really arrived at the gate of Guozijian, he hesitated. He frowned and looked at the vermilion door in front of him.
"Or ...... You go in first? Look, the old man is not there? ”
Jun Qinglan didn't speak, but only looked at him with a pair of big eyes.
Jiang Yufan scratched his head: "This kind of place is compatible with me, as long as I enter the gate of the Guozijian, I will not feel comfortable." The old man will be even more unlucky if he sees the sacrificial wine again, for I am afraid that I will not be able to eat until tonight. ”
Jun Qinglan looked at him and smiled. Jiang Yufan has never been afraid of heaven and earth, and the only thing he is afraid of is reading. Guozijian is the highest school in the entire Northern Xia, and it is the ultimate place to study in the dreams of scholars all over the world, but it is Jiang Yufan's nightmare. At that time, he was forced by his father and brother to take the Guozijian exam, and from the age of twelve to the age of fifteen, he never passed. From then on, the wine of the priest of the country became the person he was most impatient to see.
"Wait, I'll take a look."
Today's Guozijian Yamen is actually very deserted, except for a prisoner, half of the figure can not be seen, saying that the people next to him have gone to the class. This made Jun Qinglan a little curious, I don't know which one is lecturing, and he can actually attract everyone. She didn't want to make trouble, although she handed over the sign of Jinyiwei and wanted to enter the inner hall for questioning. But she did not enter the room like no one else, but sat on the chair prepared for her by the prisoner and waited.
The prisoner claimed to have entered the inner hall to report it, and then disappeared. Jun Qinglan waited straight for a stick of incense, and the man was like a mud cow entering the sea, and there was no trace. Jiang Yufan was surprisingly patient, and he hadn't come in to take a look for so long. The quiet needles could be heard, and Jun Qinglan got up and walked at the back door of the yamen to stand still. Out of the back door is the backyard school of Guozijian. At this moment, there was a gust of wind, and the voices in the school hall were swept away from the distance. Floated into Jun Qinglan's ears.
Although she couldn't hear what the man was saying, she could hear that the man's voice was loud and intoned, which was not the same as the seriousness of the lecture next to her. There was laughter in the school from time to time, and it was clear that the atmosphere was very enthusiastic. Her eyes were in a trance for a moment, her brother had already become a tribute student selected by the Guanzhou government, and with his talents, he would definitely be able to enter the country to study smoothly. If the tragedy had not happened, if it had not happened......
She shook her head vigorously, and instantly shook off the mist in her eyes. She is getting closer and closer to her dream, how can she be weak at this time?!
Just thinking about it, I suddenly heard the bell ringing, and the applause in the school was thunderous, and the class was over, and the school was over. The door opened, and several people walked out one after the other. Feng Qingyan saw at a glance that the priest of the country was coming side by side with a red-faced middle-aged man. Jun Qinglan quickly glanced at the middle-aged man, who had a five-short figure, a big, round, oily face, and looked similar to the butcher selling meat in the market. He swept his gaze away from him and walked over to the sacrificial wine.
"My lord, the brocade guard is polite."
"Jinyiwei?!"
The sacrificial wine suddenly drank sharply, which immediately broke the peace of the people in the country. Jun Qinglan was shocked by the sound and tilted her body, Jinyiwei has been established for nearly a hundred years, is there such an accident?
When she looked up, she saw that the old man was staring at her, and the gray beard under his forehead trembled, and then trembled, and his face gradually turned red. This is...... What's wrong? Jun Qinglan's brain was spinning rapidly, and his words and deeds didn't seem to be inappropriate, why did he anger this person?
"Guozijian is a place to do knowledge quietly, and there has never been a place that can provoke chickens and dogs. What are you Jinyi Guards doing? Get out! The old man was imposing and his voice was loud.
I see!
Jun Qinglan once heard her brother say that Confucian scholars pursue brightness and integrity, so Confucian scholars have some unprovoked innocence in their bones, and they despise the tricks of acting in secret. Jinyi Wei is Jingwei's follower on the surface, but in fact, he only obeys the emperor's orders. It's the guy who is secretly detecting and surveilling, and it happens to be the filthy people in the mouth of the Confucian scholars.
The priest of the country is full of wine and reads poetry and books, and his bones are pedantic, and he is fatal. I'm afraid that I don't know what Jinyiwei hates in my bones, otherwise I won't even maintain the most basic face?
"My lord, the villain was ordered to come to the Guozijian to investigate the case of Cui Tai's death, please make it convenient." Jun Qinglan was not in a hurry or annoyed, and said slowly.
"Cui Tai has long been expelled from Guozijian, what case are you here to ask? Our school is full of innocent readers, let's go! ”
"My lord, you're embarrassing the villain." Jun Qinglan was a little helpless. Listening to Jiang Yufan say that this old man is stubborn, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would have been hard to imagine that there was such a stubborn person in the world. It's even more difficult than the people of the Imperial Tower.
"If you insist on searching our national prison, and interrogating our students as thieves, you are not embarrassing your own officials!"
"Master Guo, tell them to come in."
Suddenly, a man's voice as indifferent as water came from behind the crowd, obviously as beautiful as fairy music, but it was not contaminated with the slightest emotion in the world. When you listen to it, you feel cold to the bone.
"His Royal Highness King Duan." The sacrificial wine turned to look at Li Congyao, who was hiding under the eaves of the corridor and the porch: "Could it be that you don't believe in our country eunuch either?" ”
"Of course not." Li Congyao said slowly: "Those who are clear are self-purifying, just let Jinyiwei investigate." If Lord Guo blindly obstructed it, he would fall into the truth, thinking that the country was weak-minded. ”
The sacrificial wine frowned, and finally couldn't close his mouth. I vaguely felt that something seemed to be wrong, but I couldn't mottle half a word.
"If Lord Guo is impatient to deal with Jinyiwei, ask Ziyu to do it for you." The butcher-like man said with a smile.
The man was polite and polite, as if he had undergone a long and rigorous training, and had become a habit carved into the bone marrow. If such a behavior is changed to others, it is undoubtedly dizzying and fascinating, and it is refreshing. But...... With such a butcher-like red and oily face, it's really ...... It's very inconsistent.
"Where do you dare to work Master Fang, things here are ......."
Halfway through the words of the sacrificial wine, he put the card back in his throat, and he had the intention to call the prison to deal with Jun Qinglan. But thinking about their identity, I feel inappropriate after all.
"If Lord Guo is not suspicious, then this king will take the Jinyi Guard to go away in the Guozi Prison."
"That's great." The sacrificial wine was overjoyed, and beckoned the prisoner to serve on the side. He himself happily took the butcher to the inner hall to drink tea.
Jun Qinglan looked at Li Congyao for a long time, the man's eyes were calm and indifferent, and he never floated towards her for half a minute. Only said lightly: "Let's go." Then he turned around and went to the backyard first.
Jun Qinglan choked back with a word of thanks, this person never seemed to care about the thoughts and attitudes of others. In that case, just follow along.
Li Congyao did not enter the school, but bypassed the school, turned the corridor again, and went to the depths of the Guozijian.
"We ...... Don't go to school? Jun Qinglan couldn't help but glance at the academy that had long been left behind. This man...... Is it really helpful? Anyway, why hasn't the prison arrived yet?
It's so embarrassing to get along with wood like this!
"At this hour, the tribute students of Guozijian will practice riding and archery on the school grounds." Li Congyao replied slowly, his voice as light as ever.
"Oh." Jun Qinglan blinked. Gongsheng's life is really good, the food is provided by a special person, the school is the first in Yanjing, and it is actually equipped with a special activity is the school field? It's no wonder that the world's scholars squeezed their heads and wanted to be called the tribute students of the country.
"Hey, Qinglan, why are you so slow?"
The man's cheerful voice made Jun Qing's blue eyelids jump: "Head, why are you here?" ”
