After Su You took Yang Guang's will to summon him back to the Eastern Capital, he didn't know whether he was sad or happy for a while.

At the beginning, Yang Guang also promised Su You, Su You's term of office was only one year, and after the expiration of his term, he would give Su You a county of land and let him shepherd one side.

Su You didn't expect to stay in the south for longer, but time passed quietly, a year and three months.

Su You originally thought that Yang Guang had forgotten his original promise, and hoped that he would forget his own promise, but he suddenly remembered; He sowed the seeds in Yangzhou, and after slowly harvesting, he was forced to leave.

Fortunately, Su You heard that it was the late lord Yang Ying who took over his position as the envoy of the southeast economic strategy, which made Su You feel much better, after all, it is the fertilizer that does not flow into the fields of outsiders.

When the rights were handed over, Su You and Yang Ying's faces were not very good.

Su You is reluctant to Yangzhou, not willing to pick up the Grand View Garden, and the thriving Seven Seas Trading Company; Yang Ying felt that he had left the eastern capital, the center of politics, and he was afraid that the position of the crown prince would be lost to him from now on.

After saying goodbye to Yang Ying, Su You took more than a dozen people, including Lai Yanbei, Wang Bodang, Lu Sheng, Wen Dayou, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, Ma Chao, and Ma Han, to board the passenger ship bound for the Eastern Capital.

Fireworks in March down to Yangzhou.

Su You was the opposite, leaving when Yangzhou was the most beautiful.

By the time we arrived in the eastern capital, it was already the beginning of April.

As soon as Su You got off the boat, he heard the voice of joy coming over, "Hengbo, Yanbei"

Seeing Lai Cheng, Su You and Lai Yanbei were overjoyed, and couldn't help but ask in unison, "Sixth brother, why are you staying here?" ”

Lai Cheng smiled and pulled Su You and his wife over, and explained with a smile, "I learned the news that you left Yangzhou a few days ago, and I estimated that you should arrive in two days, so I am here to greet you." ”

"I see, then there is Sixth Brother Lao, let's go home first." Su You nodded, and immediately pulled Wang Bodang and the others over, and always said, "Sixth brother, I will introduce you to a few brothers, for more than a year, it is because they are by my side"

Listening to Su You's meaning, he knew that Wang Bodang and the others were a little fisty, and they were inexplicably happy at the moment, and said to Wang Bodang and the others with a smile, "You will follow my brother-in-law to the Eastern Capital, but you can be regarded as following, a few days ago, His Majesty just decided to open Enke, by the way, this time I will also choose Wu Xiucai." ”

"And this?" Su You was stunned for a moment, presumably this was Yang Guang's whim again.

Beginning with Yang Jian, the Sui Dynasty adopted the method of taking scholars through the imperial examination, with the aim of absorbing more scholars from the Han family into the imperial court to weaken the influence of the gate lord clan; The indiscriminate selection of materials with martial arts will not be until the era of Wu Zetian.

As for the martial arts selection starting now, it is probably because of the butterfly effect brought by Su You's small wings.

However, although Yang Jian's father and son vigorously promoted the imperial examination system, the imperial examination could not escape the word "lift", and the people who participated in the examination were all recommended by the magistrates of various gates and counties, so for decades, there were only a handful of poor people who could enter the imperial examination because of the imperial examination.

"This is a good thing, the imperial examination can't just be a sour thing, right? Defending the country depends on us dancing guns and sticks, right? He smiled as a matter of course.

"That's right, when did the news of joining Wuju come out?" Su You could only nod his head at the words, it has been three full years since the last imperial examination, isn't this year the year of Dabi?

"I don't know if it's news, the imperial court has already announced it to the world, it was half a month ago."

"Well, speaking of which, I haven't read the Di newspaper for ten days, can you tell me, what are the recent movements in the DPRK?"

"The nearest thing is that Yanbei's four-grade edict has come down."

"What? Is this true? Su You and Lai Yanbei both couldn't believe it.

The edict reflects the political status of women, although they have no rights, they have a fortune; Although this edict is related to the official position of her husband, it is something that every woman strives for; If there is no such fate, even if she marries a first-class member as a wife, she cannot be called a "lady".

Now that the imperial court's edict has come down, he can rightfully be called Mrs. when he comes to Yanbei.

"Am I like a liar?" Even if you pretend to be depressed.

When Uncle Sun and the others heard about Laicheng's words, they hurriedly came over to congratulate Laiyanbei, and Wang Bodang and others were also happy.

A glimpse of the whole leopard, coming to Yanbei and now getting a name, it shows that Su You is now the return of the king, at least Yang Guang takes a fancy to him in his mind.

Su You thought of this section, and his mood after being depressed for more than ten days suddenly brightened.

Lai Cheng continued, "What I'm going to say next may be bad news for you. In the past ten days, Su Wei, Yu Shiji, Yu Wenhua and these three people have all been reinstated, and Su Wei and Yu Shiji, as well as Yu Wenshu and Er Pei, were personally appointed by His Majesty as the examiners at this moment, and they were also nicknamed 'Elect Cao Wugui' by the folk. ”

Su You nodded, and the three people mentioned above seemed to have something to do with Su You.

Su Wei needless to say, his son asked Su You to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors several times, but Su You dodged left and right, and the two had a disagreement; Yu Shiji's quantum is mostly related to Su You's investigation of Yang Ying's case that day; As for Yu Wenhua, there were not many frontal conflicts between him and Su You, but the secret fight was no less than the battle between Su You and the Yuan family

"It's not good news." As Su You spoke, he couldn't help but turn to Wang Bodang and the others, these three people may not dare to do anything to themselves directly, but they will inevitably not stumble on the people they recommend.

"Alright, let's go home first. I said Hengbo, why did you bring so many books" Seeing that Su You's face was not good, he immediately changed the topic, pointing to the more than ten boxes of books that Bard had purchased for Su You and asked.

"Hu Shangbad sent it, don't say anything, I'll sort it out slowly when I get home." Su You smiled helplessly, originally he wanted Bard to get some useful books from Rome in order to find out the recipe for making glass, but now

Seeing that his family was still helping Su You unload the boat and load the car, Lai Cheng finally said a little impatiently, "Let's go back first, I haven't eaten the dishes made by my brother-in-law for a long time." ”

"We're just going back to the Eastern Capital, shouldn't you set up a table in Taibai Building or on the water side for us to pick up the wind and wash the dust?" Su You immediately rejected the idea of cooking by himself, and asked with a smile.

"It's more comfortable to eat home-cooked food." Thinking about Su You's cooking skills, his saliva remained, and he asked Laiyanbeidao, "You have made a lot of money in Yangzhou, right?" ”

Lai Yanbei smiled noncommittally and asked, "Who did you listen to?" ”

Su You smiled at Wang Bodang and the others, "Go home first and recognize the door, and then I'll send someone to take you around after lunch, don't you want to see Yuanbi City or something?" ”

Wang Bodang and the others smiled, they had long been full of yearning for the Eastern Capital, and they knew that this Yuanbi City was written by Su You, how could there be any reason not to see it?

After Su You returned home, he went to Taibai Mansion to book a few tables of flowing water seats, but when the wine and food were not delivered, he received a greeting post first.

"Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin! Have they arrived in the Eastern Capital? Su You took the greeting post and walked to the door suspiciously, Wang Bodang was not worried about Su You, so he walked out with him.

Coming to rectify and not seeing outside, Dama sat down with Lu Shengwen and talked about the customs of the Eastern Capital, I have to say that compared to Su You who just met more than two years ago, he is much more talkative now.

As soon as Su You arrived at the door, he saw Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin pacing anxiously around.

I haven't seen him for three years, Qin Qiong is almost as tall as Su You, Luo Shixin's small body is still as thin as ever, but he has also grown a lot taller, after all, he is more than ten years old at this time.

Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin were anxious, and when they saw Su You appear, they hurriedly saluted and said, "Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin greets Mr." ”

Su You didn't expect that meeting them again would come so quickly, and he was very happy in his heart, so he hurriedly came over to support them, and asked with a smile, "When did you come to Dongdu?" I just came back from Yangzhou today, so hurry up. ”

Su You helped them up, and then introduced them to Wang Bodang.

Wang Bodang naturally heard about them from Su You's mouth, and although he was older than them, he didn't dare to underestimate them.

However, Qin Qiong and Wang Bodang said a few perfunctory words, and said to Su You uneasily, "We have been here for three or five days, I originally came for this martial arts, and Shixin also wanted to come to the Eastern Capital to have a look." We all know that Mr. is in the southeast of Jingluo, so when I came to the Eastern Capital, Mr. Yan and Master Zhang did not let me bring the letter. ”

Luo Shixin was afraid that Su You would not understand Qin Qiong's words, so he quickly added, "We are in trouble, and we thought that Mr. could help us in Dongdu, so I found it, and then I heard that Mr. will return to Dongdu in a few days."

Su You nodded, and while leading the two of them into the door, he asked them, "What's the matter?" ”

Qin Qiong said with a sad face, "It's a brother of ours who is newly married, and he has something to do." ”

"Slowly, what's going on? The gentleman who can be flat will give you peace. Su You nodded immediately, he didn't promise that he would do it, but as long as it was within his ability, of course he was duty-bound.

Su You is so protective of calves.

Qin Qiong then gushed out, "My second brother, the surname is a single name, and the word is Xiongxin; He has an elder brother who used to drive and solicit customers in the eastern capital."

When Su You heard Shan Xiongxin's name, he couldn't help but be shocked, he didn't expect that there was really Shan Xiongxin, and he and Qin Shubao became brothers.

"Xiongxin's brother died in October of the previous year, according to the investigation, he died with a feather arrow inserted in his body, and the name on this arrow is Li Shimin, the son of Tang Duke Li Yuan."

In October of the year before last, Li Shimin's arrow

When Su You heard this, he couldn't help but sweat a lot on his forehead.

The person who killed Shan Xiongxin's brother was not Li Shimin, but himself.
