Early the next morning, today happens to be the end of the month.

On this day, not only did Senior Brother Deng not have to be on duty, but Chen Kaizhi also did not have to go to school.

Chen Kaizhi was idle, he got up early in the morning, had dinner with his senior brother, and then hid in the room to read again.

Entering the school palace, the biggest gain is that the library books in the school palace are as vast as smoke, Chen Kaizhi borrowed a lot, not only some books necessary for the exam, but also some ordinary miscellaneous books, he also borrowed them, read them attentively, and kept them in his heart. 、

In these days, Chen Kaizhi has actually been delusional to search for some traces of "Wenchang Tu" from ancient books.

Because it stands to reason that since "Wenchang Tu" can be lucky and has such a magical effect, then it should be that in this world, there are many books like Wenchang Tu, but ...... Chen Kaizhi was very disappointed, and after reading all the ancient books, he found nothing.

There was not a trace of it.

The only thing that has been handed down is nothing more than the myth of killing one person in ten steps in the pre-Qin period of ancient times.

But later, such records became more and more rare, so that in the Great Chen Dynasty, these seemed to be non-existent, in addition to countless articles and historical materials, touting the glorious deeds of Emperor Taizu Gao, it seems that the so-called luck of "Wenchang Tu" has disappeared forever.

This...... It's so unusual.

Why doesn't something exist when it doesn't exist?

Chen Kaizhi was a little stunned.

But at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, and it was Deng Jian's excited voice: "Kaizhi, Kaizhi, come and see, come and see." ”

There was surprise in his voice.

Chen Kaizhi raised his eyes in surprise, did anything happy happen?

Chen Kaizhi hurried over to open the door, but saw Deng Jian beaming outside the door.

He was carrying a basket in his hand, and said excitedly: "I hit a lot of luck today, haha, I went to the East Market to buy eggs today, it was an egg for two pennies, who would have thought that I only bought five eggs, and the old woman who sold eggs actually gave two more, isn't this good luck?" No wonder there are magpies crowing in the branches early this morning. ”

"Uh......" Chen Kaizhi looked at the senior brother who looked down and counted the eggs in the basket with great interest, and didn't know what to say for a while.

, senior brother, you are also a jinshi and a first, especially you are an official.

Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but say: "Is this egg bad?" ”

Deng Jian's face changed, so he hurriedly lowered his head, took out the egg to take a closer look, and said, "No, I look at that old woman, not like a treacherous person." ”

As he spoke, he pinched an egg, sniffed it, and a foul smell came, and suddenly, the senior brother's face turned pale: "It's really, lack of virtue, ah, I'm looking for this wicked woman to settle accounts." ”

Chen Kaizhi was afraid that something would happen to him, so he hurriedly intercepted him and said, "Senior brother, pay attention to official etiquette." ”

Deng Jian beat his chest and said: "The world is going down, people's hearts are not ancient, woohoo!" ”

Chen Kaizhi was also drunk, so he had to comfort him: "Senior brother, the blessings and misfortunes are relied on, and the blessings and misfortunes are lurking, so let's mourn and change." ”

Deng Jian said indignantly: "It's so shameless, no, I still have to find this wicked woman." ”

He carried the basket and was about to leave angrily, but Chen Kaizhi couldn't stop it, and chased straight to the courtyard, but Deng Jian collided with a eunuch.

The basket suddenly fell to the ground, and the eggs shattered to the ground, Deng Jian didn't have time to look at people, but he had a general reflex: "Ah, my eggs, you knocked over my eggs, pay me for my eggs." ”

The eunuch was desperately rubbing his shoulders, this eunuch was old, and when he heard someone call for compensation, he said that he came to do the emperor's errand, and this pot actually came from the sky, so he angrily reprimanded: "Which is Deng Jian?" ”

Deng Jian raised his eyes and saw that it was actually an envoy, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

In his courtyard, there are usually no people who come, it can be said that there are many people, not to mention the envoys, even ordinary people with some status, and rarely come.

Deng Jian was cramped for a while, but Chen Kaizhi stepped forward quickly and said, "Deng Jian is the senior brother of the student. ”

Chen Kaizhi glanced at the envoy seriously, and found that it was a familiar face......

Zhang Jing?

The father-in-law Zhang who was choosing a handsome envoy and had a relationship with himself.

Although Chen Kaizhi saw this person as kind, he didn't recognize each other, thinking that he was probably a little person in the eyes of the other party, so many days have passed, and the other party has already forgotten about himself, why should he hold this stinky foot?

But on Zhang Jing's face, his expression was completely frozen.

It's Chen Kaizhi!

No, it's His Royal Highness!

His Highness lives here?

Zhang Jing has been looking for an opportunity to meet Chen Kaizhi in the school palace these days, but he knows very well that when he leaves the palace, he must have enough reasons to not show traces, so King Zhao and others are such sensitive people, the slightest wind and grass is bound to attract his attention.

This risk is too great, and Zhang Jing does not dare to show the slightest bit of hindsight no matter what.

But today, he originally came to the palace to read a will, but who expected to bump into Chen Kaizhi here.

His breathing began to be rapid, his pupils began to contract, and his heart was mixed, it could be seen that Chen Kaizhi's face was as usual, and Zhang Jing calmed down again.

Taking a deep breath, I couldn't help but think in my heart, it turned out to be ...... This Deng Jian is Chen Kaizhi's senior brother.

Zhang Jing tried his best to calm his mood, and then a smile appeared on his face, and said to Deng Jian: "Egg, what egg?" ”

"Yikes!" Deng Jian was a little confused: "I...... My Egg ...... No, what does the lower official mean is that the father-in-law is here, what is the matter? ”

Zhang Jing then remembered his duty, his face was flat, and he said, "Order." ”

As soon as he heard the edict, Deng Jian was confused, and hurriedly said: "The next official will take the order." ”

Zhang Jing looked at Chen Kai deeply, and then said: "I said: Deng Jian, the minister of the Ministry of War, wrote rebellious, brilliant writing, and demonstrated the prestige of the country, and he was appointed to the Hanlin Waiting for use, and he was appointed to the post of compilation, and immediately entered the palace to thank ......"

Essay rebellion, selected for Hanlin.

Deng Jian raised his eyes, stunned.

Cheng Hanlin?

Although this military ministry officer is of the same grade as Hanlin Compilation, it is not the same day, the military ministry is a poor Beijing official, but Hanlin is a star of tomorrow. This is like a ministry's minion, who suddenly entered the General Office of the Central Committee, Deng Jian's body trembled, how could he be so favored?

Yes, it's that article, that article written by Kai Zhi.

His eyes were suddenly foggy, and tears were about to fall from his eyes.

Oh my God, I, Deng Jian, will also have today. I thought that in this life, the biggest future was to be able to mix a master in the hall, or be lucky, be able to go out, and become a county commander and prefect, who would have ......

He said excitedly: "Minister, thank you." ”

Zhang Jing had a subtle smile on his face, in fact, he was only responsible for passing on his life, but as for letting Deng Jian enter the palace to thank him, it was his temporary idea.

Although it is a false edict, you can enter the palace to thank you, after all, it is the Queen Mother who is thanked, and if the Queen Mother learns, she will be greatly surprised.

He had an idea, and then asked: "Compiled by Deng, let's ask you, is this text written by you?" ”

"This ......" This is written by the junior brother, Deng Jian understood in his heart, and he was a little embarrassed to admit it.

"Could it be ......" Zhang Jing looked at his strange expression, and said with a faint look: "Is there anyone ghostwriting for you?" No, that's not what we mean, we mean, is there anyone polishing for you? ”

Deng Jian's mind was confused,, this father-in-law is a god, hesitated, Deng Jian said: "Yes, it's my teacher......"

Chen Kai saw that it was bad, what is the use of this kind of credit for himself? The senior brother has an official status, so he can give full play to the benefits of this text, so he hurriedly replied: "Don't dare to hide it, it was written by the senior brother." ”

Deng Jian hurriedly said: "Senior Brother Chen helped polish one or two. ”

Zhang Jing was still smiling, but he was overjoyed in his heart.

He didn't care if this article was Chen Kaizhi's polish, what he wanted was just an opportunity, and now the opportunity has obviously come.

Zhang Jingdao: "The Queen Mother loved this article, and she explained before leaving the palace, saying that she had to let the person who wrote the essay enter the palace to thank her, and it was originally written by Deng to enter the palace to thank her, but ...... Since you, the junior brother, also participated in the polishing, you might as well enter the palace together to thank you. ”

Deng Jian said with a straight face: "The minister's junior brother is still young, but I am afraid that I don't know the rules, if I collide with ......."

Zhang Jing didn't give him a chance to refuse, and hurriedly interrupted: "This is what the Queen Mother meant." ”

Saying that, Zhang Jing still did not doubt that he turned around and went back to the palace first.

Chen Kaizhi and Deng Jianshi, the two brothers, were still standing there, but they were staring at each other for a long time.

Deng Jian was the first to react, coughing and said, "Kaizhi, do you know the etiquette in the palace?" ”

At this time, Chen Kaizhi remembered that he used to give gifts to the Xun family according to the rules in the book, but presumably the etiquette in the book is different from the etiquette in reality, but now he wants to enter the palace, Chen Kaizhi was also surprised, and couldn't help but say: "Please advise senior brother." ”

Deng Jian said helplessly: "Teach a fart, senior brother doesn't know, senior brother is a second-class jinshi, and he is not qualified to enter the palace to thank him, don't say that it is the queen mother and His Majesty the emperor, so he has never even entered the inner court." ”

Chen Kaizhi suddenly realized that he was ...... Senior brother is also a turtle.

Looking at Chen Kaizhi's strange gaze, Deng Jian said unnaturally: "It's not too early, let's enter the palace quickly." ”

Chen Kaizhi glanced at the broken eggs on the ground, and couldn't help but say, "Senior brother, this egg, don't care?" ”

Deng Jian's body was shocked, the corners of his mouth twitched, and finally he looked light: "I am Da Chen Hanlin, just an egg, what a way!" Don't mention this matter in the future, count the old woman's luck, I won't settle accounts with her, so as not to hurt the country's body. ”

Chen Kaizhi smacked his tongue and thought thoughtfully.

Deng Jian glared and said, "What are you thinking?" ”

Chen Kaizhi held back for a long time before he said: "I'm thinking, Senior Brother's change of face is comparable to flipping a book, I should learn more from Senior Brother." ”

"Uh........." Deng Jian's face twitched, and he wanted to say something, but after opening his mouth, he didn't say anything more, and then he didn't hear Chen Kaizhi's words, put his hands behind his back, and said with an official face: "I'll hire a sedan chair." ”
