Chapter 52 Wants to Capture the Past
When Xia Xiang and Cao Shujun returned to the Quanyou Inn, Jin Jia and Xiao Wu had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as he saw Xia Xiang, Jin Jia's beard trembled with excitement, rushed over, and grabbed Xia Xiang's arm: "Xia Langjun, tell the old man why the emperor didn't see his condition improve after using the medicine bed and medicine chair?" ”
Xia Xiang was not in a hurry, took a sip of Xiao Wu's cooled tea: "You tell me what the fourth prince said first?" ”
"Guess." Jin Jia smiled, and didn't rush to urge Xia Xiang, but pretended to drink tea easily, "The tea is good, but the water is overheated for three points when brewing, and the tea is old." ”
"Tea is not old, it is new tea." Xiao Wu felt aggrieved and argued with reason, "It should be Mr. Jin Jia's tongue is old, so he feels old when he drinks any tea." ”
"Xiao Wu is right, Mr. Jin Jia is not only old with his tongue, but also with old hands and feet. People get old with old legs first, old legs and feet are cold first, Mr. Jin Jia must have cold hands and feet at night......" Xia Xiang smiled indifferently and poured himself a cup of hot tea, "Can Mr. Jin Jia think that it is not that the water is too hot for three points, but because the body is too cold, he feels that the tea is too old?" ”
Jin Jia was stunned for a moment, and was stunned for a long time before he suddenly slapped his thigh: "Oh, Xia Langjun, you are so powerful, witty, and wise, the old man understands, the old man has figured it out......"
Cao Shujun looked at Xia Xiang on the left and Jin Jia on the right, and then at Xiao Wu, with an inexplicable expression: "What are you talking about?" What does Mr. Jin Jia understand? ”
"The tea is not old, and the water is just right, why does Xia Langjun think the tea is delicious when he enters the mouth, but the old man thinks it is too old? The reason is that the old man is a fifty-year-old body and Xia Langjun is a weak crown body, there is no law, there is no phase, like a fish drinking water, cold and warm self-knowing. The same medicine bed and medicine chair, Cao Gong used it quickly improved, and the emperor used it did not improve, not because of the medicine bed and medicine chair, but because of the difference between the emperor's dragon body and Cao Gong's physical constitution. Xia Langjun helped the old man come up with an idea......"
"It is the duty of a courtier to share his sorrows for the saints." Xia Xiang bowed his hand in the direction of the palace, "The emperor's condition is a little more serious than that of Cao Gong, the first thing is to increase the firepower, the eunuchs and palace maids burn the fire, they are afraid that the overheating will make the emperor uncomfortable, and they will be reprimanded and punished by the emperor. Secondly, the amount of moxa wool should be increased, and again, the emperor should use a medicine bed to sleep every day, and he should use a medicine chair to deal with official documents every day. ”
"As I thought, the hero sees something the same." Jin Jia was overjoyed, turned around and left, "Xia Langjun, the old man said goodbye, there is no need to send it, there will be a period later." ”
"Don't go yet, what did the fourth prince say?" Xia Xiang was dumbfounded, Jin Jia only cared about himself and didn't care about others, and he was really righteous enough.
"What did the fourth prince say? What can the four princes say? Jin Jia laughed, stood still at the door, turned around and made a grimace at Xia Xiang and the others, "The fourth prince didn't say anything, he just dropped the cup on the spot." ”
"It's a pity that there is a good cup, is it a jade cup or a white porcelain, or a building lamp?" Xia Xiang smiled understandingly, and said to Cao Shujun, "Cao Sanlang, give the fourth prince a good cup when it's convenient." ”
Cao Shujun blinked: "Okay, why do you want to give the fourth prince a cup?" The fourth prince has no shortage of cups, and he has never seen any kind of cup. ”
"He hasn't seen a cup of good times." Xia Xiang played with the cup in his hand a few times, "The jade cup made by Cao Sanlang himself and stamped with the emblem of good times must be priceless, and the most important thing is that it is unique and unparalleled in the world." ”
"It's not too late to talk about that later." Cao Shujun still didn't know what Xia Xiang meant by this, his mind still fell on the emblem, which of the jade Lianhuan or Ruoer was more in line with the meaning of the little lady, he was anxious to know, "You can go to see the little lady, right?" ”
"No hurry, no hurry." Xia Xiang waved his hand, but sat down, "Xiao Wu......"
Xiao Wu stepped forward and grinned: "Sir, I went to post the list, there was no one around, just pasted, and a person came, he said that directly pasting the black list is too eye-catching, this matter should not be publicized, the more you want to cover it, the better." ”
"Want to cover it up? Haha, it should be said that I want to say that I want to say goodbye. This person has a heart, did he say that he would post another yellow list on the black list? ”
"Sir is amazing, that's what he said, and that's what he did. I don't let him post it, he can't post it. I was so angry that I almost hit him, but he didn't post it. Xiao Wu remembered the scene at that time, puffed out his cheeks, and said angrily, "What does he know?" Dare to post a yellow list on Mr.'s black list, which is a lot of work. ”
"It's not a superfluous move, it's a big necessity." As soon as Xiao Wu's words fell, a person's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and then the door rang, and a person pushed the door in, he came straight to Xia Xiang, did not salute, stood with his head held high, and said proudly, "Xia Langjun, although I am quite dissatisfied with your confrontation with His Royal Highness King on the street last time, I am even more disgusted by the fraud in the science field. I just saw Xiao Wu posting the black list at the gate of the Gongyuan, and I guessed that you had a shady scene in the world examination field, but this move was too blatant, and the black list was pasted, if it was discovered by the examiner first, it would be fine, if it was seen by the examiner first, as soon as the matter was revealed, the matter would pass. In order to uphold justice and return the world to a fair, I took it upon myself to post another yellow list on the black list, without a word......"
"You still posted the yellow list in the end, and you are angry." Xiao Wu reached out and grabbed the collar of the visitor, "I want to beat you, sir, do you want to beat him?" ”
"Xiao Wu, the gentleman doesn't move his mouth, let it go." Xia Xiang stepped forward and pushed away Xiao Wu's hand, smiled, and bowed to the comer, "Thank you Brother Teng for your help." ”
The person who came was Teng Zhengyuan, a round face student.
Teng Zhengyuan didn't return the salute either, still nostrils facing the sky, looking up at the roof at forty-five degrees, as if there was some beautiful scenery on the roof: "Don't thank me, I'm not helping you, I'm just asking for justice for the world's examiners." If there is something that requires me to come forward, even if I speak, as long as it is for the sake of the people who are all over the world, I will not take half a step back. Leave! ”
"Sir, he obviously ruined Mr.'s big business......" Xiao Wu stared at Teng Zhengyuan's back, like a leopard ready to pounce on its prey at any time.
"Teng Zhengyuan's move is helping me." Xia Xiang looked at Teng Zhengyuan's back thoughtfully, and smiled meaningfully, "Brother Teng is a man of temperament, he first posted a wordless yellow list, which will inevitably attract the attention of many examiners, so that everyone thinks that the list has been released, and then they compete to see it, and the result is an empty list, but under the empty list is a black list......"
"Gao Wow, if you want to capture the old people, Teng Zhengyuan also has scheming." Cao Shujun praised, "It is also clever to use such a method in the court." Okay, okay, this matter is small, Xia Langjun, come with me to see Little Lady Lian. ”
"There's no hurry, there's still something to do." Xia Xiang smiled and instructed Xiao Wu, "Go and call Brother Zhang and Brother Shen to come for tea." ”
"Still have the heart to drink tea?" Cao Shujun just wanted to see Lian Ruohan quickly, "It's better to go to Anzhiju to drink tea in the good times." ”
"Cao Sanlang don't be impatient, maybe even the little lady will take the initiative to come to the inn to get together with me." Xia Xiang smiled smugly and began to start the fire, "Come, set up the stove, bring the iron kettle, and we will boil water to make tea to welcome the guests." ”
As soon as the door rang, Shen Bao pushed the door in, followed by Zhang Hou, both of them were surprised, seeing Xia Xiang'an's Suo, there was still leisure and elegance to make a fire to boil water, and they couldn't help but be puzzled and puzzled.
Shen Bao thought that Xia Xiang was too sad, so he pretended to be relaxed, he stepped forward to comfort Xia Xiang: "Brother Xia, you don't have to be like this, the failure of the list may be just a miscommunication, and even if you fall off the list, it is not that you are not good at learning and not good at learning, but that the examiner has no eyes." It's a big deal to come back for the exam after three years, and it will definitely be a blockbuster. ”
Zhang Hou moved the corners of his mouth slightly, smiled reluctantly, and gently patted Xia Xiang's shoulder: "Brother Xia, don't be discouraged, I think I won the Jinshi three years ago, but I threw away the edict and went home, you are just not appreciated by the examiner, three years later, you will definitely be in high school." ”
Zhang Houzhi's words seemed to comfort Xia Xiang, but in fact, he was showing off that he was much higher than Xia Xiangcai, and his self-satisfaction was overflowing.
Shi Er also pushed the door in, with a look of concern: "Xia Langjun, can I help you boil water?" ”
Xia Xiang waved his hand and said calmly: "No need, I'm fine, come, and see how my tea-making skills are?" As he spoke, he flipped his wrist and lifted the iron kettle, and a stream of boiling water poured into the teapot, and the tea leaves were brewed and churned, and the aroma was overflowing.
In the blink of an eye, Xia Xiang had already poured a cup of hot tea for everyone, he smiled, first handed a cup to Zhang Hou, and then a cup for Shen Bao, Cao Shujun, and Shi'er, and said: "Tea must be drunk while it is hot, when the tea is cold, it will not taste good." ”
Zhang Hou shook his head and smiled, thinking that Xia Xiang was so tricky, but it made him look down on Xia Xiang even more, after receiving the tea, he didn't drink tea, his eyes swept away, and he saw that there were still a few teacups on the table, and couldn't help asking: "Why are there more teacups?" ”
"Wait a minute, maybe there will be a visit." Xia Xiang smiled quietly, "Today, there will be a good show." ”
"What's the show?" Shi Er tilted his head and asked, admiring Xia Xiang's composure and confidence very much, "Xia Langjun, what other guests will come?" ”
"It should be a good show with all kinds of characters on the stage, and there should be many unexpected guests." Xia Xiang took a sip of tea slowly, "So we don't want to go anywhere, it's also fun to drink tea and watch a play." ”
"But......" Cao Shujun couldn't sit still, rubbing his hands again and again, "I always have to go out for a walk, and always sit and drink tea, it's not a foolproof solution." Besides, the small all-you-have inn, where will there be guests visiting? ”
As soon as the words fell, the door was pushed open, and the figure flashed, and a person suddenly came like a breeze.
As soon as this person arrived, Xiao Wu suddenly felt like a great enemy, took a step back, his whole body was tense, and his eyes looked directly at the person who came like thunder, as if as long as the person came moved slightly, he would fly up and fight with the person who came endlessly.
The person who came was not a martial artist or a strong man, but a delicate little lady.
Dressed in white and snowy, with a jade face like a fairy like the moon, and a sword like a swimming dragon held in front of his chest, the person who came only showed up, and immediately surprised everyone.
It is the Manta.
Zhang Hou only glanced at it and stood on the spot, his mouth was slightly open, his eyes were as round and big as copper coins, the teacup in his hand was tilted, and the tea flowed all over his body, and he didn't know that he was such a stunning woman in the world? There are really such stunning women in the world! His heart was like a wave, the last time he saw it in Taipingju, why didn't he find the unparalleled elegance of Mantuo?
Yes, it must be, last time Mantuo wore a black dress, and he always bowed his head and was silent, only to be covered with dust, at this time, Mantuo, white clothes fluttering, like flying sky, face like jade, cold and glamorous like snow, only to make Zhang Hou shocked as a celestial.
Zhang Hou has also seen countless ladies, dignified, charming, elegant, arrogant and rude, like a mantle, it is really the first time to see it. If you just talk about the appearance, although the Mantuo also has a beautiful appearance, but it is not unparalleled in the world, but the Mantuo is both dignified and charming, and between the manners, there is elegance and calmness, and there is also a proud state. Compared with the arrogance of a wealthy aristocratic woman, her arrogance is the cold arrogance of being lonely and self-appreciative, and the coldness of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
For the first time in his life, Zhang Houping was fascinated by the elegance of a woman, he was competitive by nature, and the more difficult it was, the easier it was to stimulate his desire to conquer, just like the hanging inscription in Taipingju, in his opinion, he would not take what was at his fingertips.
"Mantuo lady, under Zhang Hou." Zhang Hou took a step forward and smiled slightly, "I had a relationship in Taipingju last time, I wonder if the lady still remembers it?" ”
Mantuo didn't look at Zhang Hou, and when he didn't exist, she came straight to Xia Xiang: "Xia Langjun, I heard that you fell off the list?" ”
Xia Xiang nodded: "It's really a good thing not to go out, but bad things to spread thousands of miles ......"
"Does it have anything to do with my correspondence with you?" After hearing the news of Xia Xiang's fall, Mantuo was shocked, and hurriedly asked clearly, she knew that for a reader, falling off the list meant that she would lose in the ten-year cold window, and she would have to wait at least another three years for the cold window to have a chance.
"No, when I handed you the letter, you had already finished the exam." She deliberately waited for Xia Xiang to finish the exam before handing over the letter, because Xia Xiang's failure had nothing to do with her, she had a heart in place, turned around and left, "It's okay to fall off the list, now that the officialdom is dim, it's a good thing that you are not an official, at least you can be alone." ”
Zhang Hou coughed lightly, to hide the embarrassment of being ignored by Mantuo, and he watched the interaction between Mantuo and Xia Xiang coldly, with both a little jealousy and a little disdain. Xia Xiang is a failed exam, and he was born in a civilian country, not to mention that he will have to wait three years to take the exam again, it is unknown whether he will be high after three years, there are many people who are not in the Jinshi exam in the fifty years, he has a good background, and he has literary talents, this time he must be in high school, and he does not believe that Mantuo will ignore his overtures and only have intentions for Xia Xiang.
If this is the case, Manta is too discerning. No, no matter how visionary Mantuo is, he must let Mantuo know that he is a hundred times stronger than Xia Xiang, and he is the pillar of the Dragon and Phoenix Kingdom among people.
"Being good to yourself is just the way to retreat, and helping the world is what you want." Xia Xiang said with a smile, "Since the lady is here, it is better to stay and drink tea together." ”
"Tea?" Mantuo stopped, turned around and swept his gaze, and swept over the faces of several people in turn, like the wind passing through the water, without stopping at all, and finally his gaze fell on Xiao Wu's face, and paused, "It's better to talk to Xiao Wu than to drink tea with you." ”
Xiao Wu waved his hand again and again, and took a few steps back: "Lady Mantuo, I have nothing to say to you, and I don't want to talk to you......"
Mantuo smiled rarely: "It's okay if you don't speak, go, follow me to the courtyard, and I will teach you martial arts." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and pushed the door open.
"Really?" Xiao Wu was overjoyed and looked at Xia Xiang. Xia Xiang nodded in acquiescence, Xiao Wu was immediately overjoyed, jumped up, and came out of the window.
Shi Er stuck out his tongue: "Xiao Wuzhong likes to go out through the window, if one day he is on the third floor, wouldn't he fall to his death if he jumps through the window?" ”
Shen Bao didn't say a word from beginning to end, just buried his head in drinking tea, and came out coldly: "Brother Zhang is interested in the lady of Mantuo?" ”
Zhang Hou was stunned for a moment, and then smiled confidently: "Brother Shen really got right, I did fall in love with the Mantuo lady, Brother Xia, you and the Mantuo lady have no selfish relationship, right?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Shi Er suddenly pricked up his ears and looked at Xia Xiang with a nervous expression.
Xia Xiang smiled: "Brother Zhang's words are wrong, if I have a personal relationship with the lady of Mantuo, it is also a private matter, and it has nothing to do with you." If there is no selfish affection, it is also a private matter, and it has nothing to do with you. ”
Zhang Hou was choked for a moment, and laughed: "In this way, Brother Xia and I are interested in the Mantuo Lady, and the Mantuo Lady is ruthless to you?" Ha ha. ”
"Xia Langjun is here?" In Zhang Hou's laughter, a light and weak voice sounded outside the door, "My family even the little lady came to visit." ”
Xia Shujun jumped up and was overjoyed: "Lian, Lian little lady? He responded loudly, "Yes, Xia Langjun is here, Cao Sanlang is also here, even the little lady please come in quickly." ”
Regardless of the fact that he was not the owner of the room, he immediately opened the door and welcomed him out.
Outside the door, Lian Ruohan was getting out of the car with a hand-held skirt.
