When the wide official boat finally appeared at the end of the river, Jiang Taidong suddenly perked up, stood up from the carriage and looked at it from afar, and said with an excited voice: "It's finally here." ”

Wang Beijia nodded and smiled: "Such a distinguished guest, it is really something that our Fuzhou can't invite, Lord Jiang, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as long as you grasp it, maybe you can go to the next level." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Taidong's heart was even hotter.

He has been in Fuzhou for five years, and his biggest wish is to be transferred to Luoyang, but it is a pity that the annual examination is ordinary, so the wish can only become a luxury.

What I didn't expect was that this noble man in the court actually drove to Fuzhou, as Wang Beijia said, it was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and this distinguished guest had a deep friendship with the official family, if he could get her appreciation, maybe his dream of being promoted would come true.

Thinking of this, Jiang Taidong was very excited, looking at the boat that was still at the end of the river, and couldn't help but feel a deep sense of anticipation, I really hope that the other party can arrive as soon as possible.

The official ship gradually approached, and finally anchored at the crossing of the Yellow River.

Before the official ship could get closer and stop, Jiang Taidong was already impatient and jumped straight onto the deck, his movements completely unrecognizable that he was in his fifties.

"Jiang Taidong, the assassin of Xiaguan Prefecture, led the officials of Fuzhou Prefecture to welcome Bachelor Chen and all the Jinshi, and welcome you to take the time to come to Fuzhou as a guest."

The old voice echoed on the deck, and soon, a gorgeous and moving woman walked out of the cabin, which immediately shocked Jiang Taidong's whole body.

It can be seen that the woman's cloud-like hair is coiled into a bun, covered in a black sara head, with a moon-white master's gown on her body, the skin on her beautiful face is better than snow, and her eyes are like a pool of clear water.

It also made Jiang Taidong can't help but lower his eyes after taking a look at her, but the woman's cold arrogance and agility are quite seductive, and he can't help but be haunted.

Could it be that this girl is the legendary Chen Ningmo, who is not a princess but is actually a princess, the only beloved daughter of the Eight Sages King, the lord of Luoyan County, and the first female scholar since the founding of the Great Qi Dynasty?

The river breeze blew Chen Ningmo's clothes, making her whole person feel as if she was about to go away from the wind, and the voice that reached Jiang Taidong's ears seemed to come from nine days away, as beautiful as the sound of heaven: "This official Chen Ningmo, there is Lao Jiang Thorn Shi to greet you." ”

Seeing that this beautiful woman was really Chen Ningmo, the lord of Luoyan County, Jiang Taidong's heart couldn't help but be hot, but he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look directly at her delicate face, and said respectfully: "I received the documents from the bachelor this morning, and I knew that the bachelor and all of you Jinshilang will arrive in Fuzhou today, so the official made a special trip to wait here to supply the bachelor, and I don't know whether the bachelor came to Fuzhou for business or private reasons, and if there is any need, just ask the official." ”

Chen Ningmo smiled faintly and said: "Jiang Tingshi is polite, this time this official is at the behest of the official's family, leading the thirty-eight Jinshilang of the high school jinshi to come to Fuzhou to observe the recent reform of the four northern states, it is rumored that the pacification of the four northern states is very remarkable, in just a few months, it has set off such a big storm, it is really shocking!" ”

"It turns out that they are here for Cui Wenqing...... Legend has it that Cui Wenqing is a student of Bachelor Chen......"

Thinking of this, Jiang Taidong smiled and briefly introduced: "Bachelor Qiqi, Lord Cui is indeed very powerful, not only successfully quelled the turmoil of the people of Xizhou in other places, but also implemented a variety of policies to benefit the people of the four states in the north. ”

Chen Ningmo had already known about these things, so it was not surprising, and he nodded and said: "Because of this, the official family asked me to bring this year's new scholars to study one or two, by the way, you didn't tell Cui Wenqing the news that I came, right?" ”

Jiang Taidong hurriedly shook his head and said, "According to the bachelor's orders, the lower official did not disclose this matter to Lord Cui. ”

Chen Ningmo explained with a smile: "The purpose of doing this is just to let Cui Wenqing have no preparation in advance, so that we can see the true face of the reform of the four states in the Northland, well, don't talk much, let's go to the post house first, and it is not too late to inform Wenqing after settling down." ”

Jiang Taidong nodded, and then hesitated a little, obviously a little difficult to speak.

Chen Ningmo observed the nuances of people, and soon discovered Jiang Taidong's strange appearance, and asked curiously: "What's the matter, could it be that Jiang Thorn Shi still has something to do?" ”

Jiang Taidong pretended to be bold and said with a smile: "Bachelor, Fuzhou has always been extremely prosperous in literature, and there have always been countless literati and scholars, today the lower officials deliberately held the Mid-Autumn Festival on the bank of the Yellow River, and I don't know if the bachelor and all the Jinshilang can have the leisure to come to the elegant collection to give advice, if you can listen to the teachings of the bachelor, I believe that it is a great harvest for the students of the entire Fuzhou and even Hedong Road, so I also ask the bachelor to promise." After speaking, he bowed deeply, and the attitude of inviting him was extremely sincere.

Chen Ningmo understood that Jiang Taidong and the others did not know in advance that they and the Jinshi were coming to Fuzhou, and this poetry collection was definitely not premeditated, but just a complete coincidence, and there was nothing wrong with going to see it.

So, Chen Ningmo nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the poetry collection first, by the way, will Cui Wenqing come?" ”

Hearing Chen Ningmo's agreement, Jiang Taidong was pleasantly surprised, his face turned red with excitement, and he hurriedly smiled and said: "Thank you for the bachelor's love for Fuzhou, originally Xiaguan had invited Master Cui to come to participate earlier, but I don't know why, Lord Cui refused, but if the bachelor came, Xia Guan believed that no matter how busy he was, Master Cui would definitely arrive, and Xia Guan would send someone to inform him." ”

Chen Ningmo smiled and beckoned all the Jinshi to follow her to get off the boat and board the car.

After getting off the boat, Chen Ningmo happened to see a person standing in front of the carriage he was riding, nodding and smiling.

Jiang Taidong hurriedly introduced Chen Ningmo: "Bachelor Chen, this is our Fuzhou Wang Beijia, this poetry collection was arranged by Wang Beijia. ”

Wang Beijia was excited, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his hand, "Xiaguan has seen Bachelor Chen. ”

"It turned out to be Wang Beijia, fortunately!" Chen Ningmo nodded, then thought of something and frowned suddenly, and asked, "Your Excellency's surname is Wang?" Don't drive in an official position? ”

Wang Beijia didn't understand why Chen Ningmo suddenly asked this question, but he was a little flattered for a while, and hurriedly nodded: "Returning to the bachelor, the lower official's surname is indeed Wang, and he is not a driver in Fuzhou." ”

Hearing this, Chen Ningmo's frowning brows suddenly relaxed, revealing a touching smile, but there was a faint hint of elusiveness in that smile, and she didn't say much, and went straight to the carriage.
