The willow tree is less than ten meters from the gate of Hongbunkan, and there are two half-human-high stone lions in front of the door. On the right hand side, on the back, sat a teenage child, with a dejected shirt and a thin yellow face. Many people around him are pointing fingers at him. The child Lu Xin recognized that the day after he first arrived in Chang'an, he had seen him in the Yanxiang Building in Jing'anfang.

Luo Bingwang, the future Four Masters of the Tang Dynasty, is a world-famous figure. However, what shocked Lu Xin was that the aura exuded by King Luo Bin at this time was even more powerful than a few days ago. Any onmyoji can feel the terrifying mana contained in his body.

A child of about ten years old not only has advanced cultivation, but also deliberately releases his breath, which is obviously an extremely strange thing. At least at that time in Yanxiang Building, Luo Bingwang was not so sharp.

"Hmph, looking at his dress, you can tell that he came from a poor family. Maybe, just a scholar. Otherwise, which state capital's actions would dare to be so presumptuous? ”

"Child, get off the back of the stone lion. This is Hongbunkan, not a place where you play at home. ”

A group of onlookers shouted loudly as they spoke. A few older ones even moved out of the way of Confucius and Mencius and scolded them. The child got impatient and opened his eyes suddenly, and his mana vibrate. With the stone lion as the center, everyone within a radius of one zhang flew out upside down.

These people who went to Beijing to take the exam are all ordinary people, where can they resist the mana of a powerful onmyoji. Lu Xin looked from under the willow tree, the moment Luo Bingwang opened his eyes, the pupil of his left eye was normal, but the pupil of his right eye was completely black, as if he had been drenched in ink.

"What's going on...... This kid is so evil, is he a monster? ”

"Yes, it's a youkai! Come on, catch monsters, in front of the Hongwen Museum, there are monsters. ”

"Where? What demons and monsters dare to do in the land of sages? ”

Luo Bingwang's movement was too big, and it instantly attracted everyone's attention. Especially those who were shocked by the mana, looking at the children's eyes full of fear and resentment. It wasn't looking at a human eye at all, it was looking at a beast, a demon.

The front of the stone lion was soon surrounded by people again, and those standing at the front were all rich sons wearing brocade clothes and jade pendants. One of them, surrounded by four shirtless men, looked the most frivolous and unkind.

"Hey, hey, little doll, I heard you're a monster? One of the things I want to do most in my life is to subdue demons and eliminate demons for the common people. This place is called Hongwen Hall, the place where the imperial court governs schools, and you can't be presumptuous. I'll count three times, if you don't come down and kowtow and admit your mistakes, you should admit that you are a demon. When the time comes, don't blame me for bullying the small. ”

The person who spoke looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, and he was quite handsome, but his arms were thick and black, and he had obviously practiced martial arts. As soon as he spoke, some of the people around him retreated, and many people's faces showed shock.

"Zhang Yuzhi? Could it be the second son of Zhang Liang, the general of the right guard and the governor of Huaizhou, Zhang Yuzhi, and Captain Zhang? ”

"That's right, I'm from Huaizhou. The son of Zhang Liang, the general of the right guard, does have a name named Zhang Yuzhi. I heard that this person began to practice martial arts at the age of eight, and entered the army at the age of fourteen. In the second year, he won many military merits. Counting up, this person should only be eighteen years old this year, and he is already a captain of Zhaowu, and his official residence is sixth. ”

"Captain Zhaowu? That's a great official. According to the Tang system, this person's official rank is already greater than the county order. Such a person actually came to participate in the imperial examination? You must know that although this Jinshi is difficult to examine, this official is even more difficult. Even if you win the top three, you have to go through the layers of deletion and selection by the officials before you can be sealed. And most of the official positions will not exceed six grades. ”

"Hmph, what do you know, people are students of Hongwen Pavilion. Who are the people who can study here? The emperor's relatives, the children of the first-class members and the founding heroes. A mere Zhaowu lieutenant is far from enough for these sons of the family to glorify the lintel. Those of us who have no backers, even if we win the champion, we can't be big officials. But people, as long as they are casually admitted to the Jinshi, they will be able to rise to prominence in the future......"

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, and most of the eyes looking at the young people were envious. Zhang Yuzhi seemed to want such an effect, and his expression became more and more proud.

The son of a general, a captain of Zhaowu who has already lived in the sixth grade. In front of these people who have not yet made a name for themselves, they do have a natural advantage. And the sense of superiority that this advantage translates into is especially strong in Luo Bingwang, who can't even afford decent clothes on the back of the stone lion.

Zhang Yuzhi saw that the child's eyes were always closed, ignoring him, and he immediately lifted the corners of his mouth, and his eyes showed a cold light.

"One, two, three......"

With the cold voice counted three times, the atmosphere of the whole audience froze. Everyone stopped talking, and those who were close to the stone lion didn't even dare to exhale. However, the child still did not open his eyes, and his face was expressionless, as if he could not hear any sound. Zhang Yuzhi had been snubbed like this, and immediately smiled and motioned to the four guards around him to do it. Lu Xin's face changed slightly, and he was about to step forward. Suddenly, a loud laugh rang out from his side.

"I said what is going on, so lively. It turned out that Brother Yu was here, why, Huaizhou was uncomfortable, and he came to Chang'an to have fun? ”

This sudden voice, flirtatious, joking, and smiling with a hint of mockery, is clearly a bad comer. Lu Xin hurriedly stopped, looked around, and saw a young man dressed in purple, leading a donkey slowly. There is no entourage around him, but his temperament is noble and full of spring breeze.

Passing by the willow tree, the man slowly tied the donkey under the tree, bowed slightly to Lu Xin, did not speak, and soon walked towards the crowd.

At this time, Zhang Yuzhi was already furious, and he couldn't wait to beat people with his own hands. Seeing the man in purple appear, a trace of cruelty flashed across his face.

"What, don't do it? It's just a child, your dignified Zhaowu lieutenant, the son of the county prince, actually wants to bully him? You're really giving your dad a long face, hahahahaha......"

"Hmph, Cui Xiangrong, what kind of thing are you, and you dare to be yin and yang in front of the captain of this school, and you are not ashamed to speak out? I insulted him, but you ask these people, why do I insult him? ”

"Hahaha, what's that? I, the Boling Cui clan, have been the world's first-class high-ranking family since ancient times. It's your Zhang family, it's nothing more than a Changping county duke. You Zhang Yuzhi relied on the power of your Lao Tzu, and it was just a matter of showing off your power in Huaizhou. But this is Chang'an, at the feet of the Son of Heaven. I kindly advise you, or be more restrained. ”

When the man in purple said this, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he no longer looked at Zhang Yuzhi, but put all his eyes on Luo Bingwang's body. And his eyes gradually changed from frivolous to cautious.

"Bolingtri?"

Lu Xin under the willow tree frowned, he didn't notice the mana fluctuation from the person who came. But judging from Zhang Yuzhi's somewhat jealous expression, Cui Xiangrong, who suddenly came out, must have a deep background. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to suppress this majestic Zhaowu captain.

"Hehe, things are getting more and more interesting."

Before coming, Lu Xinke never thought that something interesting would happen during such a little time waiting for the entrance exam. But thinking about it at this time, the first imperial examination after Li Shimin's accession to the throne must be to gather talented people from all over the world. The children of all kinds of eunuchs, families, and wealthy families will definitely come out to compete. This situation may be far more complicated than imagined.

"Bolingcui! It's over, it's over, why even the people of this clan have rushed to the scientific expedition. Damn, why is Lao Tzu's luck so bad. ”

The scholar also ran under the willow tree at some point, grabbed Lu Xin's sleeve and wiped it on his face. Turning his head, the scholar's face was sweating a lot, and he didn't know if it was because the weather was too hot, or because he was scared out of nervousness. Tu Chengli, who has always been calm and confident in scientific research, seems to be worried at this time. This is the first time Lu Xin has seen this appearance.

"It's just a kid of a family, look at it scares you. I listen to you brag on weekdays, but when it's time for the exam, you know you're scared, right? ”

"You know!" The scholar immediately scolded his mother, then squinted his eyes at Cui Xiangrong, lowered his voice and said, "Brother Xin, you don't know anything. The Boling Cui clan has been a famous family since the Eastern Han Dynasty. In the Northern Dynasty, the world was divided into scholars, and their Cui family was listed as a first-class surname. This is not the end, from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the present, the Boling Cui clan has produced more than a dozen prime ministers, and hundreds of court officials above the general and squire. There are countless clansmen who are proficient in poetry, calligraphy and painting, and the six arts. In all dynasties, as long as there are scientific expeditions participated in by people from the Boling Cui clan, the Jinshi of the same period are destined to be pressed by him. Perhaps, there will never be a day to emerge. ”

The scholar's words became softer and softer, but they still made Lu Xin gasp. More than a dozen prime ministers, hundreds of high-ranking officials, and a big family that has multiplied for hundreds of years, its profound heritage is indeed unimaginable. No wonder, when Zhang Yuzhi faced Cui Xiangrong, not only did he not have an advantage in momentum, but he was also lower.

Moreover, in ancient times, reading and cultivating qi were inseparable. Cui Xiangrong's temperament is partly brought from his bones, and the other part is cultivated after he has completed his studies. Therefore, when Lu Xin appeared, he felt a Confucian aura similar to Kong Wen. The scholar obviously felt this too, and suddenly became nervous.

"First Rank High Sect Clan? Hahahaha, Cui Xiangrong, I think you're crazy, right? The surname of the Tang Emperor is Li, and Li is the first surname in this dynasty. What you just said, could it be that you want to rebel? ”

"Oh? Do you think that just by relying on your few words, you can provoke the relationship between my Cui family and the Tang royal family? Zhang Yuzhi, Zhang Yuzhi, you are really a stupid reckless man! ”

With a cold snort, the stone lion beside Cui Xiangrong suddenly cracked. And King Luo Bin, who was cross-legged on his knees, also opened his eyes suddenly.
