Chapter 320: I'm Going to Drink It Too

Wen Yan woke up early in the morning, originally to rest and go back to sleep, and laughed with the old lady and Mama Huang, and the doze dissipated, and he got up.

But I didn't get enough sleep, so I was sleepy in the afternoon and took a nap.

When I got up again, I realized that there was a guest visiting the house.

It was Mr. Du, the mountain chief of Xiangju Academy, who came, Wen Ci is studying there now, and he knew that Wen Zifu was resting today, and the old man came in a hurry.

Wen Zifu invited people to the study.

His son is studying, and Wen Zifu attaches great importance to it.

The choice of Xiangju Academy is also because Mr. Shan Changling and Mr. Du Lao were brothers when Wen Ci was in Lin'an.

With Mr. Ling's introduction, the enrollment went smoothly.

Wen Zifu also had a good exchange with Mr. Du at that time.

Now that half a year has passed, Wen Zifu is busy with official business, except for a little Wen Ci's homework when he goes home, he has indeed not spoken to Mr. Du for a long time.

Mr. Du's intention is very simple.

In this year's autumn, the old gentleman suggested that Wen Zifu let Wen quit and give it a try.

Wen Zifu hesitated.

In his opinion, Wen Ci is still one breath away, and he has to study for another two or three years before he can compete in the next game.

Mr. Du said that he was optimistic about Wen Ci.

First, in the monthly exams in the past few months, Wen Ci's results are among the best, and secondly, the exam requires experience, not necessarily a one-hit hit, and it is also a good thing to practice your hands.

Other families are cautious because they have to consider entanglement, travel, and borrowing money to take the exam, which is not uncommon among many students from poor families.

Wen Ci has no troubles in this regard, his home is in the capital, and he will take the exam for a few days when the day comes.

Good or bad, it's all experience, it's worth a try.

Wen Zifu thanked Mr. Du, saying that he would ask Wen Ci himself later, and let him go if he wanted to try.

Seeing off the old gentleman, Wen Zifu told Mrs. Gui and Cao about his intention.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were smiling.

Don't say it, the mountain chief is capable and good at homework, which elder doesn't like to listen?

Even Wen Yan was happy to hear it.

In the evening, when Wen Ci came back from class, he was not a drag and water, and after thinking about it for a while, he made up his mind.

Get your feet wet.

This summer in the capital is shorter than usual.

Unconsciously, the sultry thunderstorm turned into autumn rain, and the weather cooled down, even if you don't use an ice basin, it won't make people sweat.

Wen Yan and Old Madam Gui both breathed a sigh of relief.

The days were easy.

It's just that the dullness of the mood is better than the hot summer.

The death date of Wen Ziliang and his wife, Xia Taifu and Pingxihou and others is just around the corner.

In the swallow alley, the ingots began to fold again.

On the second watch, when Huo Yixiao arrived in the West Cross Courtyard, Wen Yan was also folding.

The windows were open for ventilation, and in the room, Wen Yan and Sui Niang sat opposite each other, and the two of them did not stop in their hands, one after another.

Hearing the movement, Wen Yan turned his head to look at it and smiled at Huo Yixiao.

The old lady got up and said hello, wanting to pack her things.

Wen Yan stopped her: "It's okay, let it go." ”

The old lady responded and withdrew.

Wen Yan originally wanted to prepare tea, but looked at his hands that were stained with the end, and said, "Xiao Ye, I won't make tea like this, the tea sets are all placed, and you can cook it yourself." ”

Huo Yixiao stared at her.

That's it, the more he sees outside, the more the little fox talks.

It's just a cup of tea, so why be polite.

The kettle rests on the small stove and the water gurgles.

Huo Yixiao said: "Cheng Shaoyu arrived in Beijing and showed up in the yamen in the evening. ”

Wen Yan folded the ingots while saying: "According to Xiao Ye, which one of Master Cheng and Lord Liao will take over after Jiao Shangshu is old?" ”

Lord Liao refers to the newly raised right waiter.

"They are all new to office, where can you see it," Huo Yixiao took the teaspoon and took the tea leaves, and said, "Your Highness has discussed it with me, and then I will choose to go to the Ministry of Rites." His Royal Highness originally wanted to go to the military department, so I suggested that he take a break. ”

Wen Yan asked, "Why?" I thought that Xiao Ye was quite willing to go to the military department. ”

Although Min Hao's case has been closed, Huo Huaiding and Huo Yixiao did have some evidence of collusion between the officials of the Ministry of War and Min Hao and others.

Huo Yixiao discussed with Wen Yan before, and he could use this as an entry point, and he could also investigate the inside story of You Shilang's "suicide" at that time, as a breakthrough for Pingxi Hou's rehabilitation.

"I don't care where I go, but it's not in line with His Highness's temperament." Huo Yixiao said.

Zhu Huan's efforts to be moderate made him continue to "scourge", and he couldn't bear it.

This reason is too real, as soon as Huo Yixiao said it, Zhu Huan listened to it.

Of course, this is Huo Yixiao's rhetoric to Zhu Huan, and the real reason is that they are not ready.

If Min Hao's case is still being investigated, it can naturally be a sharp sword, digging deep layer by layer.

But now, the case has come to an abrupt end, and there is no way to use this name to investigate and interrogate justifiably, and it is not easy to straighten out all the twists and turns in the three months that I have only relied on in the military department.

Therefore, go to other yamen first, and at the same time, secretly follow the existing clues to investigate, even if it is a little slower, you must master more.

It would be great if we could find the Di family who had been sent away by Di Cha and get some information from them.

On the night when Dicha hung the beam, Ebony hid in the corner, and it saw Dicha and Xiaoxiao instructing the family to go to Jiangling, but in fact, he pinched the palm of Xiaoxiao's hand hard, and made other arrangements, but unfortunately, because of the angle, Ebon'er only saw the movements of Dicha's hand, and did not see his mouth shape, so that he didn't know the whereabouts of Di's family at all.

After that, Huo Yixiao also asked people to find it, but he didn't get anything yet.

I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

Since the previous opportunity is gone, there is no need to rush.

"Wait for some news, and it's not too late to go to the military headquarters." Huo Yixiao said.

Wen Yan listened to his explanation, and naturally agreed with the reason.

The tea is brewed and the aroma is overflowing.

Huo Yixiao took a sip, the taste was very moist and soft.

I don't know where the Ding'an Hou Mansion got such good tea, and it is more comfortable to drink than Yugong's.

Under the hot air, Huo Yixiao saw Wen Yan wink at him.

"Do what?" He asked.

Wen Yan pursed his lips: "I want to drink it too." ”

Huo Yixiao poured a lamp.

Wen Yan raised his hands and shook him, the meaning was clear.

Huo Yixiao sighed.

A little fox is not a little fox if he is not naughty.

He saw it, in the spirit of not losing people or losing the battle, Huo Yixiao picked up the teacup and brought it to Wen Yan's lips.

Wen Yan blew, and his breath brushed through the tea, and also brushed over the hand holding the teacup.

Slightly cool, just a few breaths.

Huo Yixiao's hand was held, but his breath changed rhythm with Wen Yan's breath.

He watched Wen Yan take a sip of tea, and the tea moistened his red lips.

Wen Yan is afraid of being hot, so he just blows and sipes the tea, and drinks it for a long time before he finishes it.

"Xiao Ye," Wen Yan was still naughty, looked at him with a smile, and said, "Let's have another lamp, we still exchange courtesies." ”

Huo Yixiao put the teacup on the table: "I don't want to wash my hands, how can you still be polite?" ”

Wen Yan said: "When you get married, drink a glass of wine." ”

Huo Yixiao: "......"

He groaned.

The speed of digging the pit is so fast, Wen Yan belongs to the mouse!

Besides, handing over a glass of wine is mutual, what kind of courtesy is it?
