Zhu Xiaosi was dressed in a short dress, and his black face was similar to that of an ordinary peasant child, obviously he bumped into someone, but he still complained, "Why did my uncle clean up today, I rushed over early in the morning and asked my mother to rush back tonight, so it won't be troublesome." ”

"Then you are looking for the wrong person, today's cleaning was not arranged by me, if you have the guts, go to the mountain chief, and show it to someone with a black face."

"I'm already dark! Hey, this bald ...... Which monk is it, is it that he is coming to trouble you again? Zhu Xiaosi said and touched the nunchuck on his waist.

Without waiting for Ma Du to reply, Yao Guangxiao had already stepped forward and said: "The poor monk Daoyan has seen His Royal Highness King Yan, His Royal Highness misunderstood, the poor monk and Uncle Guo are old acquaintances, how could they come to him for trouble." ”

Ma Du then thought that these two people were destined to be good partners, one was ambitious and wanted to be the emperor, and the other was determined to leave a name in history, and the two hit it off and finally got what they wanted.

Although both of them had a good reputation in later generations, at that time, there were many people behind their backs who scolded them for being chaotic ministers and thieves, Yao Guangxiao returned to his hometown and even avoided his sister and hid in the door to scold him.

Seeing that the two of them began to hook up as soon as they met, Ma Du hurriedly stopped, "Fourth, you don't have to clean up today, hurry back to the palace, Niangniang's birthday is coming, don't forget to prepare gifts." ”

"Huh? Uncle is so kind today, the sun is really coming out in the west, I haven't prepared my gift yet, I'll go to your storehouse to get it! Zhu Xiaosi put down the wooden stick on his shoulder as he spoke, "Jinglong, do it yourself, I'll go!" ”

Zhu Xiaosi ran away without a trace, and Li Jinglong rubbed his hands and looked at Ma Du and said, "In a few days, I will also go to celebrate my mother's birthday, and I also want to get a gift from the treasury of my husband's house...... Ouch! ”

Madu gave him a brain meltdown and yelled, "Work hard!" ”

Yao Guangxiao kept turning his head to look at Zhu Xiaosi's back, as if he wanted to see the flowers.

"Master, let's go!" Madu patted him on the shoulder.

"Good!" Yao Guangxiao turned around and continued to follow Ma Du.

Ma Du asked curiously and tentatively in his heart: "The master is proficient in physiognomy, why did he stare at His Royal Highness King Yan just now, could it be that he still has the appearance of an emperor." ”

Yao Guangxiao stopped and said to Ma Du seriously: "The emperor has already established the country and the prince has become an adult, and there are rumors that the prince's diligent and benevolent corporal is still the nephew of the uncle of the country, how can you say such a rebellious remark, the poor monk should not have heard it today, and please ask the uncle to be cautious in his words and deeds in the future." ”

I rub! Ma Du wants to scold, you yourself are a chaotic minister and thief, and you are embarrassed to say that I am rebellious, isn't this a rake.

"Uncle Guo, don't worry, the poor monk is also thinking about you, but His Royal Highness King Yan is indeed born with a strange appearance, and he will definitely have some achievements in the future!"

It's really embarrassing for Yao Guangxiao, who can see from that appearance of Zhu Xiaosi, that he has a strange appearance and a magnificent head. He didn't have to give Zhu Xiaosi a certain white hat as soon as he came up, and this allusion was made up by someone to whitewash Zhu Xiaosi.

Ma Du took him around the academy, and showed him all the places that the academy could show off, and finally took him to the haha corridor under construction.

As the name suggests, the haha corridor is a long corridor composed of haha mirrors, and all the unqualified mirrors in the workshop have been sent to the academy, and more than ten meters have been built on the edge of the garden.

If that student is not happy, when you get here, you are guaranteed to laugh and your troubles will be swept away, Bo Qi and a few disciples are still continuing to build, and when he saw Ma Du coming with a monk, he smiled and quipped, "Why do you deceive people to teach in the academy?" How can you be a monk this time? ”

Bo Qi's sharp eyes pierced Ma Du's mind at once, "Do your job well, where did you get so much nonsense!" ”

Yao Guangxiao smiled at Bo Qi, put his hands together and saluted, which was regarded as greeting Bo Qi. But he whispered in Ma Du's ear: "This person has a bit of an imperial appearance, but the purple qi on his head has dissipated, and Yu Daming is no longer a threat." ”

"Master, don't pretend to be a ghost, I can't see where the purple qi came from at all, I'm afraid you have already guessed that he is the king of the dead country of Dayuan."

Yao Guangxiao smiled, "Since Uncle Guo knows why he has to pierce it, he doesn't leave any face for the poor monk." ”

"I was a little embarrassed when he pierced my mind just now, and I was embarrassed to embarrass you as well, and you have no reason to laugh at me."

Yao Guangxiao walked to a mirror and looked at himself who was really distorted inside, "This haha mirror is really interesting, it is the first time for the poor monk to see his appearance so clearly." ”

This old fox didn't answer Ma Du's words at all, don't look at him as sick and thunderous, but there is a tiger living in his heart, how can he be willing to teach in the academy honestly. came to visit this time, maybe he wanted Ma Du to help him in the officialdom.

Later, Ma Du took him to meet a few old men in the academy, hoping that a few old men would encourage him to leave him behind. Zhu Sheng and the others also thought that he was a gentleman in the academy and intended to take the school examination, and at first he still looked like an examiner, but it didn't take long for him to talk with Yao Guangxiao very happily.

A few people gathered around the table to cook fragrant tea and talk about it, and Ma Du found that Yao Guangxiao had learned a lot, astronomy and geography, subsets of scriptures and history, Buddhist and Taoist classics, and feng shui, yin and yang, which could make several old men full of praise, which showed that he had learned profoundly.

I don't know how much hardship I have endured, so I have this body of talent, destined to fly with the tail of the golden dragon for nine days, how can I eat on the ground with the grass chicken? It is better to fulfill him than to force him to stay, if he can gain a firm foothold in the court, it will also be beneficial to himself.

When several old men heard that Yao Guangxiao did not come to the academy to apply for a job, they patted their thighs and called it a pity, and they also spoke out one after another to save them.

"Amitabha, the little monk is here to take the exam at the Ministry of Rites at the order of the court, if you can be selected, I am afraid that you must follow the will of the imperial court, if you can't choose to come to the academy to beg for food, and you gentlemen accept the little monk regardless of previous suspicions."

This bald man with a black belly really has a good calculation, and he even thinks about the way back, and a few old men regret that they must wish he came to the academy.

Ma Du also persuaded: "Master Daoyan is in the prime of life, and it is time to make meritorious contributions, this is to leave him to teach in the academy to waste his good time and full of talent, the court is the time to employ people, if a few gentlemen are sorry, it is better to write a letter of recommendation, let him serve the court is not better." ”

Yao Guangxiao on the side looked at Ma Du in surprise and said happily: "Thank you Uncle Guo for your success." ”

Zhu Sheng said: "Master Daoyan's inability to come to the academy to teach is a loss for the students, but it is also a blessing for the imperial court. ”
