"Kowloon Cup?!"
When Ning Jiang told Qin Chuan Wuyi about his next target, Qin Chuan Wuyi was all stunned.
Just because, Ningjiang's goal will be the Kowloon Cup, which is called the Royal Rose. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Nine Dragon Cup was regarded as the Gonghou Ruibao along with the Sui Hou Zhu, although the whereabouts of the Sui Hou Zhu are unknown, the Nine Dragon Cup has always been placed in the imperial city, and it will only be taken out and used on grand festivals related to the royal family. In addition, it is the triennial palace examination, which the Son of Heaven will use to entertain all the scholars.
This time, the master's goal will be the Royal Rose Treasure Kowloon Cup, which is really ...... Inexplicable excitement.
Chivalry is forbidden by martial arts, the chivalrous of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the original origin is the Mo family, although it is said that it has learned to be literary and martial arts, and the goods are with the emperor's family, but the spirit of resistance to the royal family and the imperial court has always flowed in the blood of the heroes of the rivers and lakes. In fact, in order to suppress the rivers and lakes, the imperial court once made a "Longtu chase and kill list", listing those masters of the rivers and lakes who were forbidden by martial arts, and hunting them with bounties, but I didn't expect that it didn't take long for the rangers in the rivers and lakes to be proud of being on the "Longtu Chase and Kill List".
It's just that, then again, the young man they are following now, but Gongsheng, who is about to be admitted to the Jinshi Examination, "stealing the Kowloon Cup", something that even those of them in the rivers and lakes dare not think about, he actually said casually...... Are they following a scholar or a Jiangyang thief?
"The Nine Dragons Cup has always been placed in the Baowen Pavilion in the Imperial City, and the Baowen Pavilion is close to the Longtu Pavilion, although it is in the Imperial City, it is not in the Deep Palace after all, and it should not be too difficult to steal it out." Ning Jiang said lightly.
Isn't it too difficult? Qin Chuan Wuyi looked at him in surprise...... Even if it's not in the deep palace, it's in the imperial city. Longtu Pavilion is placed in the ink treasure, calligraphy and painting, imperial collection of the Son of Heaven, Zongzheng Temple into the name of the clan and pedigree, Baowen Pavilion collection is the Son of Heaven from the folk collection of ancient books, paintings, treasures, treasures, this kind of place, even the ministers are not casually want to enter can enter.
"Master," Qin Wuyan asked in a low voice, "steal the Nine Dragons Cup...... And then what? ”
"Drink!" Ning Jiang looked at them like a fool, "That kind of thing, isn't it just taken out for drinking." ”
Qinchuan Five Ghosts: "......" is reasonable...... It is indeed used for drinking.
But the lord obviously thinks that the capital is not messy enough, and wants to add a fire to this noisy capital and let everyone roast on it......
Since the first rainstorm of early summer, the showers have been endless for several days.
Several rivers running through the capital are rising water levels, and some villages outside the city have been flooded, and there are rumors that the entire village has been flooded.
As for how to steal the Kowloon Cup, Ning Jiang temporarily handed it over to Qin Mo, Qin Wuyan, and Qin Xiaoya in the Five Meanings of Qin Chuan to think about, and let them make the plan first. Qin Ze and Qin Kan are still giving priority to matters related to the Righteous Qi Alliance, although the situation has been forcibly suppressed by the Yamen of the Three Law Divisions for the time being, but both sides are recuperating, and the first palace test is over, and a larger-scale firefight is inevitable.
Ning Jiang himself is still taking classes at the Guozi Academy, but he doesn't dare to embarrass him anymore.
Despite this, most of the students who looked at him from a distance were a little dissatisfied, and the reason for this was naturally the word "disgusting" that Ning Jiang gave to the beautiful woman they dreamed of at the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Officials.
It is said that after that incident, the talented people almost stepped through the Meiyutai and wanted to go to comfort the beauty, but Chun Jianli refused everyone's visit and did not show up for a few days, even if they asked the other girls in the Meiyutai, most of them were silent, it seems that the beauty in their minds was indeed deeply hurt by the bastard, which made them the talents who regarded themselves as flower messengers quite indignant.
Ning Jiang naturally doesn't care about these, looking ahead and backwards, passive defense, that's not his personality, unless he doesn't do things, as long as he does things, there will definitely be "sequelae".
On that day, the students were in the hall of the school, shaking their heads and reading the books of the sages. Ning Jiang put down the scroll in his hand and looked out the window at the showers that were brushing down like a transparent rain curtain.
For a tribute student like him, who has passed the exam, there is not much point in reading for the time being. However, in terms of the overall number, there are still a small number of people who have passed the examination, and the vast majority of people still have to prepare for the examination in Guozi School, or the examination in three years. No one asks about the cold window for ten years, but whether you can become famous in one fell swoop is still uncertain for most people.
After class, out of class, standing under the eaves, although with an umbrella, but at this moment of rain, it is too heavy, if you enter the rain like this, even if you hold an umbrella, you will be drenched. So, he waited here for a while, and just happened to see Sun Shan coming out of the inner house along the corridor to shelter from the rain, and the two of them were here, talking and chatting while sheltering from the rain.
While they were talking, on the other side, a group of young people walked out of the Simen Pavilion and looked in their direction.
Although he was in the Guozi Academy, the young man at the head was wearing a silk shirt and boots, not a scholar's dress.
"That guy is Ning Jiang?" The young man in the ayaro shirt looked through the rain curtain and looked over with disgust.
A person next to him said: "That's right, it's him!" ”
The young man in the silk shirt, called Shi Kaile, is also a famous gentleman in the capital, his grandfather is the third prince who retired with honor, his father is a handsome minister who guards the frontier, and his mother is the county lord of the royal family.
Although they entered the Guozi School, these people are neither in the outer house nor the inner house on weekdays, most of them are in the Simen Pavilion, or playing Keju or polo. For these people, entering the Guozi Academy is purely to make a foolish life and earn a layer of gold for the future officials.
In fact, in the past, only the children of royal families or high-ranking officials like them could be enrolled, even the children of ordinary sixth- and seventh-grade officials were not eligible to enter, as for Ning Jiang and Sun Shan, who had no family background, they didn't even want to touch the threshold of Guozixue.
But now, Ningjiang, a poor son from the countryside, has become a dazzling new star just by reading a few more books, and they have a prominent family background, if it is before the cutting of the domain, just relying on a background is enough to be included in the "top grade", and even be able to have a fief equivalent to their own land. Although now they can also rely on their good backgrounds and have a hereditary lineage, but in the court, compared with these officials from the imperial examination, more or less have ********, and the unhappiness in their hearts is naturally inevitable.
In fact, their father sent them in, but also hoped that they could study hard, if they were enough to become a monk, then with their family background, even if they did not perform well in the palace examination, the Son of Heaven for the sake of their parents and ancestors, generally speaking, they would wave a pen and give a fellow Jinshi background, but unfortunately, these people basically have no interest in reading, all their thoughts are used to eat, drink and have fun, anyway, even if they can't get into the Jinshi, it is always no problem to be rich and rich.
Shi Kaile glared at Ning Jiang in the distance viciously, My Fair Lady, Gentleman, for those students, the admiration for Chun Jianli is more of the romance of spring flowers and autumn moons, but for Shi Kaile, he has secretly had the ambition to accept Chun Jianli as a forbidden body, and at this moment, seeing Ning Jiang, who "bullied" his forbidden belly, is naturally very unhappy.
Speaking from the heart, in that banquet, Chun Jianli, who used to be famous for her sword dance, unexpectedly showed her amazing piano skills, which can be called "the double masterpiece of the piano and sword", which should have made her even more famous, but by Ning Jiang's resentful two-word criticism, a good story became a humiliation, which caused everyone to be unhappy.
However, unlike the Liuxia Sword Pavilion, although they are all based on sword dance, the Liuxia Sword Pavilion is essentially a female sect on the rivers and lakes, and many of the ladies in the capital are also female disciples in the name of Duan Shisanniang.
In the final analysis, Meiyutai is just a "pear garden", although Chun Jianli can be called the first beauty in the capital, but Ningjiang is more in the limelight, and the head of the government test is actually nothing, but he has the identities of the state test Xie Yuan, the Hui Yuan, and the Tai student, and he is humiliated when he is humiliated, and no one can do anything with him.
Shi Kaile secretly regarded Chun Jianli as a forbidden body, but Chun Jianli was humiliated by Ning Jiang twice, and she sent it to the door herself, once she asked for poetry and was rejected, and once she was criticized for showing favor with the sound of the piano. Shi Kaile was both hateful and angry, looking at Ning Jiang at the moment, he was secretly angry in his heart, and he couldn't wait to rush over and give him two slaps first.
It's just that Ning Jiang is the same as him after all, he is a student, and he is about to take the palace exam Huiyuan, although he doesn't take his status as a student seriously, anyway, it's just a mess. But when it comes to making trouble like this, although he vents his evil anger, when he returns home, he will inevitably be scolded.
So, Shi Kaile and the others glared at Ning Jiang in the distance viciously here, wanting to deal with this kid, there is a way to deal with this kid in the future, so naturally they are not in a hurry at this moment.
The rain gradually subsided, and two extremely luxurious carriages came around from the side door of Guozi Academy, and stopped in front of Shi Kaile and others, Shi Kaile and a few others got into the carriage. In fact, except for a few people such as sacrificial wine and doctors, the carriage was originally not allowed to enter Guozixue to pick up people, but these people in the Simen Pavilion originally had a deep background, plus everyone knew that they were just messing around in Guozixue, and the doctors and professors of the school were too lazy to care about them, so they were allowed to mess around, as long as it did not affect the studies of other students.
The two carriages drove out of the Kuniko Academy through the side door, got off Jiyingqiu, and crossed the Chengcang Bridge. Although it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, the torrential rain had stopped, and the sky was much brighter, and they came to the Jun River in the western district, where a flower boat was docked on the shore. Although the water level rose, the embankment in the capital was done better, and the Jun River was wider than the Dye River, and the flower boat docked on the shore and was fixed with iron cables and wooden planks, which was not affected.
On this flower boat, meet with a few other gentlemen who have made an appointment, and spend all day drinking.
Drinking and drinking, he talked about what Ning Jiang had done to Chun Jianli a few days ago, and some people talked about that Chun Jianli had finally shown up in the past two days, but she didn't look very good. Shi Kaile's face was gloomy, and at this moment, one of them looked at the shore and suddenly said, "Is it her?" ”
The others also looked together, and saw a girl wearing a honey-colored full-breasted skirt on the bank of the willow embankment, with a little maid about ten years old, walking on the stone embankment. The girl, with a melon seed face, a hundred flower buns, and a sword at her waist, looks charming, slim, and beautiful. The willow leaves after the rain are verdant and dripping, and the cool wind blows from the river, stirring her dress, like spring peach blossoms blooming in early spring.
Another said: "Brother Gan Xian, which girl is this, so eye-catching?" ”
The one who recognized the girl on the embankment was Gan Lie, the son of Gan Kai, the governor of Tongzhou. Although Gan Lie was taken a long relationship by his father and entered the Guozi School, he gradually became estranged from Chen Hao, Zheng Xian and others. Although Chen Hao, Zheng Xian and others are also from famous families, they still want to find a Jinshi background, and among the children of these families, they are young and promising after all. The examination in Guozixue is far less competitive than the government examination and the general examination, but it can pass the layers of assessment in Guozixue and become a senior student.
Gan Kai sent his son to Guozi School, originally hoping that his son could learn more from Chen Hao, Zheng Xian and others, if he could become a first-class student of Guozi School like them, it would naturally be the best. As a result, Gan Lie entered the capital, and after entering Guozi School, he followed Chen Hao, Zheng Xian and others for a while, but now he is taken by Shi Kaile, and he is mixed in the Simen Pavilion all day long.
Looking at the girl in the honey-colored full-breasted skirt on the embankment, Gan Lie said in a low voice: "That girl is Ning Jiang's sister, and her name is Ning Xiaomeng." ”
It turned out to be Ning Jiang's sister? The others were surprised. One of them chuckled and said, "I can't imagine that kid in Ningjiang actually has such a beautiful sister?" ”
The girl on the embankment, in terms of beauty alone, and Chun Jian Li can be said to be Chunlan and Autumn Chrysanthemum, each with its own victory. These people were still discussing Ning Jiang, and they didn't expect to see his sister here, and they glanced at each other.
