There are only a few days left in February, and the weather is getting warmer, and the peach blossoms in the backyard of Jiaofu are now blooming very well. It just so happened that Jiao Fang, who was at home, didn't know where he was interested because Xu Xun came to the door, so he invited someone to the backyard to enjoy the peach blossoms, and even chanted a few lines of poetry on a whim. Although it is just a common game, Xu Xun is not ambiguous, and in three or two sentences, this poem is rarely in the sky and there is nothing on the earth, which makes Jiao Fang, who has learned from his own talent but is not recognized by hundreds of officials, very happy.

Although he was very angry that his son would fail in the exam, he would take the exam once every three years, and he could take the exam again next time if he didn't pass the subject, so Jiao Fang was angry and put it aside for the time being. On the contrary, the previous time he finally coerced and lured Xu Xun to make him complacent, and at this time he did not hesitate to take out the tea that the emperor rewarded last year to entertain the guests, and when he saw Xu Xun holding the tea and admiring it, he said with a smile: "This year's spring tea should be about to start picking, and when the tribute tea is given, the old man will invite you to taste the tea again!" ”

"I don't dare to ask for it."

Xu Xun echoed and smiled, and after tasting the tea, he returned to the legend that Zhu Houzhao left the palace today, and even the crown prince asked him to prepare for the queen's birthday gift for the Qianqiu Festival. Jiao Fang, who was well-informed in the first half, had just known about it before, but he had just heard about it in the second half, although he didn't bring it out much on his face, he was surprised and happy in his heart.

What is surprising is that the prince's trust in Xu Xun is simply an anomaly, but he is happy that such a person is in his hands. So, he had to joke: "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to give the queen a surprise, then the virtuous nephew should not reveal it to me, lest this surprise be ineffective when I get it, and I can't afford to be guilty." ”

"Shi Boyan is serious, I didn't have an idea before, but I happened to go to the outer city for a walk, and it happened to give me an idea......" Xu Xun lightly brought up this topic, and then looked around and said, "By the way, how is Brother Jiao Shi now?" ”

When someone talked about his son, Jiao Fang's face was a little gloomy for a while, but he immediately smiled and said: "I will fail the test, and he has no face to come out to meet people, and he is probably studying hard in the study." The old man Tianshun is Chinese New Year's Eve years old in the middle of the jinshi, he is now nearly forty years old but he is still stumbling, this is already a few subjects, alas! ”

Moreover, the Jinshi of the same department as him Tianshun Jiashen, Li Dongyang is the second assistant, Liu Daxia is the secretary of the Ministry of War, Min Gui is the secretary of the Criminal Department, Dai Shan is the imperial history of Zuodu, and the late Fu Han, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, in comparison, he has long been left behind!

"It is true that he is young and ambitious, but the imperial examination is at the top, and the latecomers have accumulated a lot of experience, and they may not be able to stand in front of others in the future, and Jiao Shibo does not have to worry too much. The young phoenix is clear of the old phoenix, and it is inevitable to think. ”

Jiao Fang was poured by Xu Xun's [***] soup, and he was in a much better mood for a while, and when he nodded again and again, he suddenly saw that there seemed to be a figure shaking at the door behind him, and he couldn't help but shout in a deep voice: "Who is poking his head outside?" Get out! ”

As soon as the words fell, a little guy hurriedly flashed out and kowtowed: "Master, the eldest young master came back with a Di Ju person, saying that he went to our house to enjoy the flowers." ”

As soon as Jiao Fang said that his son was studying hard in the study, the little guy here reported that Jiao Huangzhong had gone out, and he had brought someone home to enjoy the flowers, which made him ugly in front of Xu Xun, and his face was so gloomy and gloomy for a while. Glancing at Xu Xun, he saw that he was bowing his head and tasting tea as if he didn't realize it at all, so he shouted in a deep voice: "Go quickly, call them to me!" ”

Where did the little guy dare to disobey, he got up and hurriedly rushed out. After a short time, he led two people in, one in front and one in the back. Jiao Huangzhong had actually gone outside when he was peeking at the little guy just now, as soon as he heard his father call him in, he thought it was an incident, and after coming in at this time, he bowed his hand and saluted, seeing Jiao Fang staring at him dissatisfied, he opened his mouth and said almost in a flash: "Dad, my son is wronged, you listen to my explanation......"

"Explain what!" Jiao Fang couldn't wait to open his mouth as soon as he saw his son come in, he couldn't help but be even more unhappy, interrupted Jiao Huangzhong's words without saying a word, and reprimanded, "If you try to fail, you should reflect on yourself, what's going on with this indulgence?" If you don't study hard at home, you will know that you will waste your time on those things that are not useful, and this is your income? ”

Xu Xun watched coldly, seeing that every time Jiao Fang said a word, Jiao Huangzhong's face became ugly, but his eyes always glanced at him, and he couldn't help but believe more and more that the first thing was Jiao Huangzhong's instructions, but he also pretended to be concerned and persuaded on his face: "Shibo, don't be too harsh on Brother Shi, it's common to be in a bad mood after falling off the list, not to mention that it's just a little confused for a while......"

Jiao Fang's words were enough to mislead Jiao Huangzhong, and now Xu Xun deliberately became more ambiguous, and sure enough, before he finished speaking, he saw Jiao Huangzhong suddenly raise his head, and shouted at him with a face full of resentment: "Xu Xun, didn't you just come to my father to sue me today?" You don't need to pretend to be a good person! ”

Di Luo had gradually tasted something wrong at this time, however, Jiao Huangzhong drank in front, and he couldn't stop it for a while, so he had to quickly remedy it: "Brother Jiao, Xu Gongzi is a guest, how can you, the master, be rude?" ”

Unexpectedly, his son, who has always been gentle and polite in front of people, suddenly lost his temper, Jiao Fang's face turned blue with anger, and he couldn't stand up by pressing the armrest of the chair. And Xu Xun said that this scene had already done the point, so he stood up and said to Jiao Fang sincerely: "Shibo, it seems that Brother Shi has some prejudices against me. That being the case, I will take my leave today. ”

Jiao Fang knew that Xu Xun had rare time now, and originally intended to keep people to listen to Zhu Houzhao's affairs, but his son's rude attack made all his plans come to naught. For a while, he had to hold his breath in his stomach for the time being, nodded with a forced smile, and then looked at Di Luo behind Jiao Huangzhong and said: "I still have a few things to ask Xiao'er today, so I can only wronged you to go back first." ”

"Since the boss has something, he will come to disturb it next time!"

Although he really wanted to stay and find out what was going on, Di Luo intuitively felt that something was wrong today, so after thinking about it, he decided to leave first for the time being, and immediately raised his hand in a dashing manner and chased after Xu Xun. It wasn't until the two of them left for a while that the little guy in the front saw that the opportunity was about to slip away, and for a moment Jiao Fang couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore, and slapped the armrest and shouted: "Evil barrier, what nonsense are you talking about just now!" ”

"Dad, do you believe that outsiders don't believe me? I really didn't do it, how could I be so small......"

Jiao Fang originally thought that his son was angry outside, and he couldn't suppress it for a while before it was sent to Xu Xun's head, but when he heard this, his heart immediately jumped, and he wanted to interrupt Jiao Huangzhong, but after thinking about it again, he still snorted in horror and coldly: "If you didn't do it, why are you so nervous?" ”

"Dad, I really didn't do it!" Jiao Huang Zhong had already discussed with Di Luo on the road, and decided to leave things clean, and immediately said unusually smoothly, "It's all that Xu Zhenqing asked for himself, people are fighting on the road, what is he doing next to him, this is not begging people to beat, and now he hurts his arm and indiscriminately points at people to assassinate, isn't this a dog that bites people indiscriminately?" ”

"You...... What do you say......"

Jiao Fang was trembling with anger, pressing the tea cup on the small round table tightly with one hand, and suddenly smashed it out. Due to the sudden lack of force, the teacup fell to the ground before it hit the scorched yellow, and only splashed the water on the scorched yellow. Despite this, he was still angry, pointing at people and scolding: "You idiot! Xu Xun just came to tell your father that the prince came to look for him today, even when he mentioned you, he only said that you would try to fail, and comforted your father a few words, and you sent it to the door yourself to say this! ”

Seeing that Jiao Huang was suddenly stunned, Jiao Fang couldn't help but lean back in the chair, and said tiredly after a long time: "Who knows about this?" ”

"Dad, it's really not ......" Jiao Huangzhong stubbornly wanted to deny it again, but as soon as he came into contact with Jiao Fang's cold gaze, he had to lower his head and mutter, "It's my scholar An Zhu, and Di Luo's ......."

"Idiot, really stupid, you dare to let outsiders know about this kind of thing! You...... You're mad at me! ”

Seeing that Jiao Fang was really angry, Jiao Huangzhong panicked, and hurriedly went up to pat his back and stroke his chest to help smooth his breath, and finally knelt down in front of Jiao Fang and said: "Dad, they are all children who are confused for a while, just because Xu Zhenqing insulted me too deeply, and accused my family ......."

"Needless to say!" Jiao Fang is a long-experienced person after all, and he has already made a decision in an instant, "Your scholar An Zhu, let Li An send him away in three moments." As for that Diro, send someone to chase him back! ”

Jiao Huangzhong nodded hurriedly, and then said, "Then Xu Xun ......"

Jiao Fang only felt angry, glared at Jiao Huangzhong and scolded viciously, "You still think about him!" Do I want to tell him that you did the unbelievable case on the Qianmen Street today, and let him let you go? ”

Having said that, Jiao Huangzhong said that he was humiliated by a mere jinshi, Jiao Fang was still furious, and then commanded sharply: "From now on, if you forget the three words Xu Zhenqing to me, you should not know this person, let alone those messy things!" ”

If Xu Xun's nosy affairs are just a coincidence, then a mere Xu Zhenqing can help his Jiao family, as long as he uses a little trick, he can make Xu Zhenqing, a southern barbarian, unable to get up for the rest of his life! If Xu Xun wants to take care of this matter with ulterior motives, he has no choice but to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, so that kid can see what will happen to his Jiao family! The gang of people who gambled in front of the Gongyuan before, Dongchang still can't find a reason, but he doesn't believe that he still can't take down the little Xu Zhenqing!

Xu Xun and Di Luo just walked out of the gate of Jiaofu, and someone chased after them, and politely invited the latter back. Seeing this scene, Xu Xun frowned thoughtfully, and suddenly realized that this middle-aged scribe who came to enjoy the flowers in Jiao Huang should also be one of the people in the know.

It seems that when he started from the scorched yellow, he really hit the weakness of Jiao Fang's old guy. Although he wouldn't embarrass Jiao Fang with such a thing that is difficult to find out right now, but now that he came to the door, the father and son not only had to panic for a while, but as long as Jiao Fang was still surnamed like that, they would have to resort to ruthless old tricks. If that's the case, he'll have to let this old guy smash hard this time!
