Chapter 49 From the small thorns in the deep grass, and now I gradually feel the basil

Cao Shujun is a young man in the end, and he came to Xia Xiang because he made the second emblem according to what Xia Xiang said-Ruoer. Ruoer and the jade chain are similar, it is still gold, silver and bronze three circles outside, but the middle of the Huanghuali wood carving is replaced with black jade, the front of the black jade is still the seal of the "good times are always in" four words, and the back is changed from "gold and jade full of halls" to "unparalleled in the world".

As soon as he entered Xia Xiang's room, Cao Shujun couldn't wait to take out two emblems, he still insisted that the jade chain was much better than Ruoer in terms of name and collocation, and he came up and said: "Xia Langjun, you and I join forces, and the world will be incomparable." It's better to open a business house together, and I have thought of the name, and the flowers are always blooming, which just corresponds to the good times. You come up with ideas, I will come out of the finished product, only for the princes and nobles to produce the jade and ornaments that they carry with them, only for the family emblem of the gate valve family, only for the big business house to customize the emblem of the business house, within three years, the good flowers will always bloom will surpass the good times, and become the first business house in Daxia. How about you and I being one and half apart, not each other? ”

Xia Xiang took Ruoer, he couldn't put it down, although Cao Shujun didn't like Ruoer, but he didn't treat it differently when he made it, the craftsmanship was very exquisite, not inferior to the jade chain, he nodded and praised: "Yes, Ruoer is exquisite, unparalleled in the world, even the little lady must like it." Cao Sanlang, why do you say this, why do you suddenly want to open a commercial house? Aren't you going to ask the immortals to ask? I also want to be an official, not in business. ”

"You're off the list." Cao Shujun tried his best to show a look of regret and sadness, but he really didn't pretend to be like it, but it was a little funny, "I heard Mr. Jin Jia say that Wen Changju took away your fame, and you didn't get into the Jinshi." ”

"What?" As soon as Xia Xiang's hand was released, Ruoer in his hand almost fell to the ground, he took a step back and sat on the chair with his buttocks, looking like dementia, "Really off the list?" How did you fall off the list? My splendid article is unparalleled in the world, and it will actually fall off the list, which is really a big joke. ”

"Xia Langjun, Xia Langjun!" Cao Shujun was frightened, thinking that Xia Xiang had lost his mind under the great changes, so he hurriedly stepped forward to pull his ears and pinch his nose, "Pull your ears, don't lose your soul, Xia Langjun, come back to your soul quickly." ”

"Don't mess around, haha, I'm fine." Xia Xiang suddenly pushed Cao Shujun away and laughed loudly, "I actually fell off the list, I really fell off the list, a good thing, a great thing!" ”

It's bad, it's really crazy, Cao Shujun's face turned pale with fright, and he regretted telling Xia Xiang about falling off the list, how good it is to let Jin Jia say, anything bad is counted on Jin Jia's head, not him, it's all because he was in a hurry to let Xia Xiang open a business house with him, worried that Jin Jia would take Xia Xiang to study medicine first, what should I do? He poured a cup of tea in a panic and handed it over: "Xia Langjun, don't be in a hurry first, drink saliva first, there is no endless road, not to mention that with your talent, you should not be a good person, and it is not a good doctor or businessman, it is also a road to help the world and the people." ”

Xia Xiang took the tea and drank it all, and continued to laugh: "Good looks and good businessmen, it's not my ambition, someone doesn't let me enter the Shi, I prefer the title of the gold list." Cao Saburo, go, come with me. ”

"Where to go?" Cao Shujun couldn't describe his mood with horror anymore, he grabbed Xia Xiang's arm, his voice trembled, and his legs trembled, "Xia, Xia Langjun, don't scare me, okay?" It's nothing if you don't pass the Jinshi exam, and if you don't have fame, I will also persuade my sister to marry you. ”

"Go to Caofu." Xia Xiang pulled Cao Shujun and walked out, "Go now, the sooner the better." ”

Cao Shujun smiled dumbly: "Why is Xia Langjun so anxious, he is going to Cao's Mansion to propose marriage?" It's also good, there is no gold list title, and it is also good to have a cave house candle. ”

The two were about to push the door out, when there was a knock on the door, and Jin Jia pushed the door and came in.

Jin Jia looked happy, and grabbed Xia Xiang's arm when he entered the door: "Xia Langjun, you have fallen off the list, haha, don't go with Cao Sanlang to open any trading house, go with me to study medicine, good looks and good doctors, they are all the way to help the people in Anbang, and they are countless times better than profiteers." ”

"What a profiteer, is a good businessman good!" Cao Shujun didn't want to make money much, but felt that opening a business house could make his craft better and faster to be liked and accepted by more people, he was extremely happy, he used to ask for immortals, but now he has changed his mind, and it feels very good to be recognized and appreciated.

Xia Xiang laughed: "It's also a good thing to fall off the list, the so-called not breaking and not standing." Good ministers govern the country, good doctors save people, good business helps the world, as long as they are dedicated to the country and the people, they are the pillars of the country. ”

"A businessman is a businessman, a businessman values profit over separation, except for buying low and selling high, driving up prices, businessmen do all kinds of harm but no benefit, hum." Jin Jia grabbed Xia Xiang's hand and didn't let go, it seemed that as soon as he let go of Xia Xiang, he followed Cao Shujun to do business, "Xia Langjun, don't go into business, don't be a mercenary businessman, ruin your reputation for a lifetime, and go against the teachings of the sages." Confucius said that the Tao is different, and it is not conspiratory. ”

Cao Shujun also grabbed Xia Xiang's arm and sneered: "Returning the teachings of the sages, Mr. Jin Jia probably doesn't know that Sage Kong can always worry about food and clothing because he has a disciple named Zigong who is in business, and Zigong asked: 'What is the gift?' Zi said: "The woman is also." He said, 'What is it?' He said, "Hu Lian also." It can be seen that Sage Kong also has a very appreciative attitude towards Duanmuci. ”

"Okay, okay, don't fight." Xia Xiang was afraid of this old and young, withdrew his hands, and sat back in his seat, "Cao Sanlang, you sit down first, and then we will go to Cao's mansion later...... What is Mr. Jin Jia looking for me? ”

Jin Jia twisted his beard and smiled: "There are two things, one is that you are not on the list, you can worship the old man as a teacher." Second, the emperor used a medicine bed and medicine chair, why is the condition not getting better, you said that you want to help the old man figure out what the reason is, and now you can tell the old man. ”

Mr. Jin Jia is really unsophisticated, and he is really embarrassed to disturb others when they fall off the list, but fortunately Xia Xiang is calm and can withstand the blow of falling off the list, of course, it is also related to Xia Xiang's prediction of falling off the list. Xia Xiang put his hands behind his back, walked a few steps in the room, shook his head and smiled: "Before the official release of the list, there is still room for me to turn around if I fall off the list." It's Mr. Jin Jia and Cao Saburo, if you want to disappoint the two, I won't go to study medicine and I won't do business. Mr. Jin Jia, I have already thought about the reason why the emperor's condition has not improved with a medicine bed and medicine chair, but if you want to help me with something, I will tell you. ”

Cao Shujun looked disappointed, shook his head, and said to himself: "Xia Langjun is really sick, the examiner judged him to be unsuccessful, and he even said that there is room for maneuver, pitiful, lamentable, pity." ”

Jin Jia didn't want to think so much, he just wanted to know the reason why the emperor's condition did not improve, and hurriedly said: "Don't say one thing, even ten things are also made, say quickly, what do you want the old man to help you?" ”

"Sir, do you know the fourth prince, Lord Qingwang?"

"Don't just know, the Qingwang Mansion of the Four Princes, the old man comes and goes at will, and if he wants to see the Four Princes, he only needs to report it...... What, do you want to see King Qing? Jin Jia smiled proudly, "It's not difficult to see King Qing, the old man can take you to King Qing's Mansion now." ”

Xia Xiang shook his head and smiled mysteriously: "Please Mr. Jin Jia immediately leave to meet King Qing in the Qingwang Mansion, and when you see His Royal Highness King Qing, you only need to say a word." ”

"What?"

"Wen Changju Wen Shangshu said to the third prince in the Star King's Mansion that Xia Xiang was off the list."

"That's it?"

"That's it!"

"It's just a trivial matter of sesame mung beans, and the old man will come when he goes." As soon as Jin Jia finished speaking, he turned around and left, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, his eyebrows furrowed, and he looked vigilant, "Xia Langjun, you won't take the opportunity to slip away, and when the old man comes back, he won't be able to find you again?" ”

Xia Xiangle: "How come?" I'm going to wait for my husband to come back and have a few drinks and discuss big things. ”

"Okay, okay." Jin Jia suddenly blossomed, "Discuss big things, discuss big things, haha, the old man will go." ”

As soon as Jin Jia left, Cao Shujun could still sit still, grabbed Xia Xiang and walked out: "Hurry up and follow me to Cao's Mansion to propose." ”

"Well said, well said." Xia Xiang smiled, as if he was really going to propose, he shouted outside, "Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu." ”

Xiao Wu appeared in response: "Here, what do you have to say?" ”

"You go to the Gongyuan quickly, and post a black list where the yellow list will be posted tomorrow, remember, don't let people find out, and don't be caught." Xia Xiang said as he took out a piece of black paper from the table, adjusted the white ink, and handed the pen to Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu smiled and showed embarrassment: "Sir, the matter of pasting the black list is easy for me, but it is too difficult to write, writing crookedly, ugly as a dog crawling, it is too embarrassing for Mr. ”

"What words to write? I'll write. Although Cao Shujun didn't know what Xia Xiang wanted, he also vaguely guessed that Xia Xiang was doing something earth-shattering, he was originally afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and he was suddenly a little excited.

"Let Xiao Wu write, no one will recognize his handwriting." Xia Xiang handed the pen to Xiao Wu and smiled slightly, "Words are not afraid of ugliness, the uglier the better, write four words - Xia Xiang is off the list." ”

"Yes!" Since Mr. said that the uglier the better, Xiao Wu is full of strength, he doesn't have to deliberately write to be incomparably ugly, he picked up the pen in his hand, luckily, brushed a few strokes to write four big characters like a dog scraping a cat, and laughed with satisfaction, "How about sir, is it ugly enough?" ”

Suddenly realized that something was wrong, he froze like a puppet, and the pen in his hand fell to the ground: "What...... What the? Mr. is out of the list? How can it be? How could the gentleman fall off the list? Mr. can't fall off the list, Mr. must be in high school, Mr. ......"

Xiao Wu said and spoke, suddenly tears welled up, and he fell to the ground with a "plop" sound, hugged Xia Xiang's thigh, and cried bitterly: "Sir, it's all because Xiao Wu is not good, Xiao Wu failed to guard the door for Mr., so that Cao Sanlang and Mr. Jin Jia always have to disturb Mr., resulting in Mr. not being able to review his homework." Xiao Wu deserves to die, Xiao Wu deserves to die! ”

Cao Shujun rolled his eyes, stretched his voice and said unwillingly: "Xiao Wu, it's okay to talk about it behind your back, it's too unkind to say me to your face." What's more, Xia Langjun's failure really has nothing to do with me, someone maliciously took his fame. Maybe Xia Langjun's test paper was stolen and changed, and he changed his name to his proud protΓ©gΓ©. ”

"Who maliciously took the fame of Mr.? I'm going to kill him. Xiao Wu stood up, wiped his tears, and was about to go out to kill someone.

"Xiao Wu, go post the black list." Xia Xiang patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder, "As long as you paste the black list, it will be a great achievement, and you don't have to think about the rest of the things, I will solve it." ”

"Yes, sir." Xiao Wu's tears disappeared in an instant, and he changed his smiling face, "I'll go and post the black list immediately, but sir, I don't understand, why do you have to have black paper, how good it is to use red paper, festive." ”

Cao Shujun smiled angrily: "When your brain can turn around, you will become a martial arts master." The black list is shady, the red list is a happy event, Xia Langjun wants to tell the world that this year's Dabi has a shady scene, not to post a red list and write two happy words, do you understand? ”

"Understood, understood." Xiao Wu scratched his head and smiled innocently, "Why do you want to post a red list to write happy words?" Xia Langjun wants to marry? ”

Cao Shujun couldn't stand it anymore: "Xiao Wu is going to post the list, it's too late, and it's a mistake." ”

"Yes." Xiao Wu's legs were tense, like a leopard facing a great enemy, rolled up the black list, pushed open the window, turned over and jumped out, as soon as the person landed, he looked back and smiled, "By the way, sir, the lady is back and lives on the third floor of the inn." ”

"Manta?"

"I saw her just now." As soon as Xiao Wu finished speaking, he jumped under the big tree with an arrow step, and walked out of the inn gate in a flash.

"If you don't leave the door, you have to go through the window, Xia Langjun, is Xiao Wu's brain broken?" Cao Shujun was convinced of Xiao Wu, "If he asks me for immortals, there will definitely be a great success." Oops, forgot about business, come with me to Caofu. ”

Xia Xiang didn't stay at the moment, he and Cao Shujun left the inn, traveled all the way west, and arrived at Cao's Mansion half an hour later.

I heard that Xia Xiang was coming, Cao Shuli and Zuo'er were busy coming out to meet, Xia Xiang had something to do, and he had no time to talk to Cao Shuli, so he went to see Cao Yongguo together after just a few greetings.

Cao Yongguo is in good spirits, not only can he get out of bed and walk, but his complexion is also much better, his face is ruddy, and his speech is sufficient. When he saw Xia Xiang, he first bowed deeply to thank Xia Xiang for saving his life. Xia Xiang is undoubtedly a blessed star for the Cao family, he first saved Cao Shujun, and then saved Cao Yongguo, if there is no Xia Xiang's appearance, the Cao family may be ruined now, unimaginable.

Xia Xiang didn't dare to accept Cao Yongguo's gift, so he hurriedly returned the gift.

Cao Shujun is now convinced of Xia Xiang's heart, he is bent on making friends, and he wants to join forces with Xia Xiang to do something big. As a child of a family, the friends he has made are either bent on seeking fame, or bent on enjoying wealth and wealth, as he generally has the heart to ask for immortals and likes strange tricks and tricks, there are very few, he has the regret of the lack of friends in the mountains and rivers, until he met Xia Xiang, he suddenly realized that there are also strange men in the world who are as broad-minded and ambitious as him.

What surprised him even more was that Xia Xiang was born as a scholar, and ordinary scholars only respected Confucianism, either disapproving Taoism or ignorant of it, and even sneered at the tricks of strange and ingenious techniques. Xia Xiang is different, he has extraordinary knowledge, but he does not have the arrogance and pedantry of ordinary readers, he is open-minded, inclusive, and can be called an all-round genius.

If Xia Langjun really married his sister, and then joined forces with him to open a good flower and often open a trading house, how good would it be. The more Cao Shujun thought about it, the more excited he became, he was not interested in the imperial examination, because he was also idle about Xia Xiang's failure, seeing Xia Xiang and his father talking about medicine and Confucianism, he was very impatient in his heart, and glanced at Cao Shuli, who was sitting at the bottom of the seat.

Cao Shuli understood, Cao Shujun had already said that Xia Xiang was off the list, she couldn't believe it at first glance, and when she learned that Wen Changju deliberately blocked Xia Xiang's path to Jinshi, she knew that the news was true, and she couldn't help but be in a trance for a while, how could Xia Langjun fall off the list? Wenchang is a scholar in the ceremonial department, and he is a second-class member of the dynasty, why does he have to squeeze out Xia Xiang as a small scholar? Xia Langjun is so talented that he is not on the list, and even the imperial examination has lost its fairness, what else is fair in the world?

Cao Shuli's mind was confused, even Cao Shujun said that Xia Xiang came to Cao's Mansion to propose to her father, she didn't care, Cao Shujun signaled to her, it was to let her avoid it, so that Xia Xiang could open her mouth to propose, but she misunderstood Cao Shujun's meaning, got up and said: "Daddy, Xia Langjun is not on the list this year, and I also ask my father to take Xia Langjun to live in the mansion and wait for three years before taking the exam." ”

"What, Xia Langjun is off the list?" Cao Yongguo was startled, stood up, and looked surprised, "Xia Langjun, is this matter serious?" ”

Xia Xiang nodded: "It should be true, it was said by Mr. Jin Jia himself." ”

Cao Yongguo was a person in the court, and immediately thought of the problem: "The list will be released tomorrow, and today Jinjia will know that Xia Langjun is on the list, and there must be a cat among them." ”

Cao Shujun explained in detail how Jin Jia learned that Xia Xiang was off the list.

"Wen Changju has a proud protΓ©gΓ© named Cai Bei, Cai Bei I also know that his knowledge and character are very average, but Wen Changju respects Cai Bei and has high expectations." Cao Yongguo has been in the court for many years, and he knows the intricate relationships and balancing techniques above the court, so he immediately thought of a way, "This matter is not irreparable, just tell the four princes about it......"

When Cao Shujun heard this, he immediately gasped, just before Xia Xiang asked Jin Jia to tell King Qing, he still felt disapproving, he didn't want his father to be an official for many years, the first method he thought of was the same as Xia Xiang, and he couldn't help but look at Xia Xiang again.

"Daddy, Xia Langjun has already asked Mr. Jin Jia to tell the Four Princes, and at this time, Jin Jia should already be in the Four Princes' Mansion." Cao Shujun hurriedly explained the matter to Cao Yongguo, and offered the treasure with a proud face.

"Oh?" Cao Yongguo didn't think much about it, he responded lightly, his eyes crossed the gate and landed on the acacia tree outside the door, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and when his gaze slowly retracted, his eyes gradually revealed a look of surprise and disbelief, and he was suddenly startled, and stood up with a slap on the table, "What?" Xia Langjun has already let Mr. Jin Jia go to the Four Princes' Mansion? Xia Langjun, was it your idea or did Mr. Jin Jia take the initiative to tell the fourth prince? ”

Xia Xiang smiled indifferently: "It's me who bothered Mr. Jin Jia for a hard trip." ”
