Chapter 506: Deception and Stealing Fame
Ji Ning didn't think about Jing Xuan's problem, but now that he thinks about it, Jing Xuan has a lot of unnatural, even mysterious secrets, as for why Jing Xuan's master was able to help Liu Yuanwai finally get Shu'an Tang's mansion and land, it has become an unsolved case.
"Your senior sister is not here? Didn't she say that she didn't know anyone in the capital, where did she go? Nalan Fuxue stepped forward and asked.
Shizuhiko shook his head innocently, indicating that he didn't know, and Ji Ning said, "Since your senior sister is not here, we will leave first!" ”
Nalan blew the snow and said, "Hey, don't you stay and look for it?" ”
Ji Ning said: "I believe that Master Jingyan is not lying, as for where Master Jingxuan went, I really don't know, so why is there any need to go to the backyard of the nunnery?" If it is known, it will inevitably be criticized, and for the sake of fame, it is better to check some of it! ”
Nalan Chuixue frowned slightly, obviously slightly dissatisfied with Ji Ning's "irresponsibility", but she also knew that there were some things that Ji Ning could not do, after all, Ji Ning had already helped Shu Antang a lot, and even Shu Antang was also helped by Ji Ning to get back from the lawsuit, if even Jingxuan's disappearance needed Ji Ning to investigate, it would be too troublesome for Ji Ning.
"If you don't look for it, I'll look for it myself, you go back first, I'll let you know if there's news!" Shizuhiko, you take me into the backyard, and I'll go to your senior sister's room to see what's going on! ”
After Nalan Fuxue finished speaking, he ignored Ji Ning and went to the backyard with Shizuhiko.
But Shizuhiko kept turning her head to look at Ji Ning, she felt inappropriate about leaving Ji Ning in the main hall, she wanted to come over to entertain Ji Ning, but Nalan Blowing Snow was resolute, and she had no choice but to follow Nalan Blowing Snow to the inner courtyard.
Ji Ning's face was relieved, he didn't care whether Jingxuan was dead or alive, he only knew that he wanted to go home, after all, staying in Shu'an Hall, he might be seen, and some people would criticize him, he came forward to help Shu Antang go back to the house that day, and many villagers saw it, and the purpose of his coming to Shu'an Hall became not simple.
There was some gloom in the main hall, Ji Ning looked up at the Buddha statue in Shu'an Hall, and always felt that the Buddha statue was a little strange, but he couldn't say why.
"It's better to stay away from this group of nuns!" Ji Ning left Shu'an Hall and headed towards the door.
……
……
The exam will be launched in February, and Ji Ning lowered his mentality in the middle and late part of the first month, and concentrated on preparing for the exam.
Although Ji Ning knows that the test is talented, he also knows that this kind of examination may not be all talented, the main thing is to let his articles be appreciated by more examiners, this is like the composition question of the college entrance examination, although a person's literary style can be expressed in the article, but the test is also a one-in-a-hundred exam, once this admission ratio is reached, the top few articles have reached a state of indistinguishability, and who is admitted in the end is almost the examiner to decide.
In the Great Yong Dynasty, there will be many talented people who are not selected, not because their articles are not good, but because the examiners have different visions in admission, if they are under a specific examiner, they may be selected, but there are a few examiners who will have some unique preferences for the article, such as they are more appreciative of the article on science or psychology, and think that this must be reflected in the article, or there are examiners who have requirements for governance thoughts, thinking that the candidate must express the realm he pursues in the article......
It is also very difficult to take into account every aspect in this kind of examination, after all, it is difficult to reconcile, and Ji Ning can only try to prepare his knowledge as much as possible, and strive to write an essay that is accepted by most examiners in the examination room.
On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, Nalan Fuxue came to Ji Ning's house once and explained Jingxuan's situation to Ji Ning.
Jing Xuan is still missing, no one knows where she went, except for Jing Xuan, none of the other seven nuns from Shu'an Hall are missing, and Jing Xuan's disappearance has become an unsolved case.
Ji Ning said: "It's just a nun, where can I go?" What was the purpose of someone kidnapping her? If Liu Fu can't find it, then it will be necessary to see if Shu Antang has offended anyone before, it may be retaliation, or it may be that Jing Xuan left by herself. Don't bother me with these things for the time being, I still have half a month to start the exam, if you still want to avenge your Nalan family, don't bother me during this time, otherwise I won't be able to pass the Jinshi exam, don't blame me for being distracted halfway. ”
Ji Ning's statement, of course, also caused Nalan Blowing Snow's dissatisfaction, but Nalan Blowing Snow is not an unreasonable person, and she herself is also angry, preferring to find Jingxuan by herself.
……
……
Ji Ning also put this matter aside and concentrated on the review of the homework at hand.
These days, he doesn't stay at home, and occasionally goes out to write his articles to Tang Xie and others, sit down to talk about the test, and exchange interesting stories outside.
"Yongning, you still don't know, on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, that Jiangbei genius Gu Yuming made a joke at the poetry meeting, he actually wrote a dozen oil poems, and actually claimed to be good poems, and wanted to fight poems with the people present, but the people slipped away, and they didn't dare to come out to meet people, now everyone knows that Gu Yuming is deceiving the world and stealing his name, and many people are guessing that it is Gu Yuming and Han Hanlin who know each other, and Han Hanlin will vent the question to him!"
When Tang explained this, he didn't know how relieved his face was, and it was also because he was slapped in the face when he went to visit Gu Yuming, which made him very unhappy.
Now seeing Gu Yuming's bad luck, Tang Xie felt that this was Gu Yuming's own doing.
Ji Ning asked, "Now don't you doubt that the poem belongs to someone else?" ”
"It's someone else's, but it is estimated that Gu Yuming brought it to the scene of the Beijing Poetry Conference, because someone has investigated, Gu Yuming has indeed written willow characters for a period of time before, and this matter is right, but why Gu Yuming's talent has such a big contrast, the ghost knows, and some people guess that maybe it is because he was unwilled after he fell off the list a few times, so he would write such poems that fit the situation, but after his turn to be proud, the spirituality in his mind disappeared, which is also possible!" Han Yu said beside him.
Ji Ning smiled, he was really not very interested in Gu Yuming.
Because Gu Yuming had stolen his articles from the beginning, the reason why Ji Ning was not angry was because he had originally used Liu Yong's poems to make up for them, and he himself didn't want to put himself in such a high position.
Tang explained: "Wait, if Gu Yuming fails to pass the Jinshi test, it will be interesting, Jiangbei genius has been beaten back to his original form, I am afraid that he will not have the face to come to the capital again in the future, and he can even find a place to escape from the world and live in seclusion, and no longer ask about Vanity Fair." It's so embarrassing, I'm ashamed of him! ”
