Chapter 85. The top of the old peak (middle).
What to do and what can be done seem to be similar, but in fact there is an essential difference. γγοΌ·ο½ ο½οΌΈο½ο½ οΌο½γ
If he said what to do, Xiao Mo should naturally announce his thoughts and concerns to the public, try to arouse the vigilance of people with intentions, and reduce the losses of the Great Chu Dynasty in the future.
However, the premise of doing so is that Xiao Mo needs to put himself in an extremely disadvantageous position first, and no matter whether his predictions come true afterwards, it will not be a good thing for Xiao Mo.
Xiao Mo is not a perfect person with the spirit of sacrificing the small self to complete the big self, so this path, just after a little consideration, he gave up.
As for what can be done, it is what you can do without hurting yourself.
But Xiao Mo thought about it carefully, but found that his current energy was too small, and there was not much he could do.
False name, what Xiao Mo has now is only a false name.
It's not okay to speak out about your concerns, but how about a different situation and write a story about the aggressiveness of a nomad to alert the world?
Xiao Mo thought about this idea carefully, but he still shook his head and gave up.
The people of the Chu Dynasty have been comfortable for too long, and their vigilance against the nomads has long been lost, and the subtle hints will not have much effect at all.
What's more, writing story novels is a shame for orthodox literati, Xiao Mo wrote "Immortal Quest", "Ask Immortals" and so on because of life, only because of the explanation of Zhu Ruide and others, and filial piety as the reason, to block the mouth of the world's people, even so, now many people who don't like Xiao Mo, when mentioning Xiao Mo, will inevitably add a sentence in front of "Born in an ugly industry, grandstanding with bizarre stories, and famous all over the world......
If he returns to his old business again, Xiao Mo will inevitably drown in the saliva of the people in the world.
Or after the palace test, Xiao Mo entered the court as an official, so that there could be some way?
I thought about it for a long time, but Xiao Mo still couldn't find any way.
"Young Master, we're at Zhu's Mansion."
Outside the carriage, Deng Shangquan's voice suddenly sounded, finally waking Xiao Mo up from his contemplation.
"Maybe I'm thinking too much, listening to what Qiu Hong said, the war between the various tribes within the Nadi clan has been going on for three years, even if it is unified now, it will inevitably recuperate for a while, it is impossible to invade Da Chu now, maybe I think too much."
Xiao Mo laughed at himself, shook his head, and thought secretly.
Although he comforted himself like this, a certain bad premonition always lingered, so after getting out of the carriage, Xiao Mo turned his head to Deng Shangquan behind him and specially advised: "Shangquan, after the interview, remember to remind me that I want to visit the house of the shopkeeper of Naqiu." β
Hearing Xiao Mo's advice, a trace of doubt flashed in Deng Shangquan's eyes, but he still nodded respectfully.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the next three days, Xiao Mo closed his door and kept preparing for the upcoming interview.
In fact, in this state examination, it is inevitable that Xiao Mo will seize the name of Huiyuan, and the so-called closed-door thanksgiving and preparing for the interview are just an excuse for Xiao Mo to refuse those visits.
Three days have passed in a hurry, and the time for the interview has finally arrived in the Yunzhou State Examination.
Like last year's interview, it was still the chief and deputy examiners who took a group of candidates to Laodingshan outside Deyang City to visit the mountains and rivers, and took the opportunity to inspect the style, character, talent and wit of the candidates.
In the early morning of this day, Xiao Mo, together with Xiao Huan, Fan Guan, and Wang Jirui, took Deng Shangquan to the foot of Laoding Mountain, thinking that the time was very early, but he did not expect that there were nearly 60 candidates gathered at the foot of the mountain, all of whom had passed the previous written exam.
You must know that there were only sixty-seven people who passed the written test this time, and Xiao Mo and the others were the latest to come.
In addition to these candidates who looked nervous or excited, there were also the candidates' children, companions, and officials sent by the Yunzhou University to maintain order and protect the safety of everyone, but there were more than 300 people, which was quite lively.
When they saw Xiao Mo and the others appear, the candidates who were talking to each other in a low voice suddenly quieted down, and they all looked at Xiao Mo and the others, and finally, they all focused their eyes on Xiao Mo.
Although Xiao Mo has been famous all over the world for more than a year, he still maintains a low-key habit in life, although he is quite famous, and he is proud of the people of Yunzhou, but in Yunzhou, there are still only a few people who have seen Xiao Mo.
However, although they didn't know Xiao Mo, they all knew Xiao Huan and Fan Guan, and they all knew that Xiao Huan and Fan Guan had a lot of friendship with Xiao Mo.
Although Xiao Mo still had Wang Jirui and Deng Shangquan by his side, at this moment, both of them were standing behind Xiao Mo, looking like servants, which not only failed to make the candidates wonder, but also highlighted Xiao Mo's identity.
"This is Xiao Mo, everyone?"
"I really didn't expect that Xiao Mo and everyone turned out to be like this, although they are beautiful, they are not as handsome as the legend."
"Shut up!! Xiao Mo, everyone can be evaluated casually? What's more, Xiao Mo is the leader of the literary world, not a drama......"
β¦β¦
After a moment of silence, countless whispering and critical voices sounded again, although the voices were all extremely low, they gathered together and inevitably entered Xiao Mo's ears.
Being watched by a group of envious, admired, fanatical, or hostile eyes, Xiao Mo shook his head and smiled bitterly, turned his head to glare at Wang Jirui, and said, "Jirui, you are also here to participate in the interview, why are you dodging and dodging like this?" Stand next to me. β
Although it has been two years since he gained the fame of Xiucai, Wang Jirui still maintains a servant-like respect in front of Xiao Mo, and he has repeatedly said that he will not change.
With Xiao Mo's reprimand, Wang Jirui was extremely unaccustomed to walking to Xiao Mo's side and standing side by side with Xiao Mo.
And at this moment, among the candidates, suddenly a candidate wearing a moon-white Confucian shirt with a faint arrogance on his face walked towards Xiao Mo.
Before, when Xiao Mo appeared, he was the only one who did not comment on Xiao Mo.
After coming to Xiao Mo, this person bowed slightly to Xiao Mo, and then arched his hand and said, "This brother is Xiao Mo's family?" β
Xiao Mo was slightly stunned, nodded and said, "I am." β
After hearing Xiao Mo's answer, the faint arrogance on the faces of the people who came was restrained, but they became respectful, and introduced themselves: "Under the surname Zhou, the name is Zhou Jingren, the word is good, I have heard the name of Xiao everyone, but I have never had the opportunity to meet, but I didn't expect to meet Xiao everyone under such circumstances." β
I didn't expect that the person who came was the first in the written test last year, and this year's written test results are only for Xiao Mo, Zhou Jingren, who was engaged to Guo Xiaoting not long ago!!
Seeing that his expression was sincere when he spoke, and then thinking of Zhou Jingren's initiative to give up the fame of Huiyuan last year, although it was the first time they met, he still couldn't help but feel good, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Brother Zhou, and I have admired the name for a long time......"
However, Xiao Mo had just said something halfway through when a change protruded.
