Zhang Yunhua looked back, Xiang Kang was lying on the table and falling asleep in front of him, and three girls were surrounding him, holding back a smile and putting some small wildflowers in his hair. Zhang Yunhua and Li Zhuoran glanced at each other and chuckled: "It's really naughty." He looked behind Xiang Kang's seat, and Zhao Qingzhou, who was sitting behind Xiang Kang, was not disturbed by the girls, but lowered his head and wrote something. Zhao Qingzhou has always liked to wear a lotus-stemmed green gown, and he sits up straight on the seat.

From the very beginning, Zhang Yunhua looked at Zhao Qingzhou with a kind of blue eyes that were different from others, admiring his Qingqi Haoran, admiring his stability and calmness, and Zhao Qingzhou's appearance of quoting scriptures and classics every time he was in class. He didn't talk about it to anyone, but he wanted to get acquainted with Zhao Qingzhou in his heart, and if he got acquainted with Zhao Qingzhou a little more, he would be able to see the hills and ravines in his chest clearly and clearly.

Zhao Qingzhou was fourteen years old in the township examination, politely refused the idle post arranged by the imperial court, and came to Lin'an from Nanlou Township, which was under the jurisdiction of Lin'an, to prepare to participate in the spring examination three years later. He lived in the pavilion, and he and Changfan helped on the one hand, and studied at the same time. Zhao Qingzhou is responsible for helping people copy books, Xiao Changfan is helping the pavilion to do some chores such as buying wine and vegetables, and the master and servant work and study part-time to make a living.

Later, by chance, in this small restaurant, Zhao Qingzhou met Li Zhuoran, who came to meet friends, and the two hit it off at first sight, and after chatting about wine, Li Zhuoran took Zhao Qingzhou to Ou Yuanwai the next day, wanting Zhao Qingzhou to study in the academy together. Ou Yuanwai has always been a person who loves talent as his life, and was moved by the courage and literary talent of the young man in front of him, so he placed Qingzhou and Changfan in Luyang Academy, and asked him to make a book and compile a bibliography for the collection of Hanwen Pavilion in the academy to deduct tuition fees.

Since then, Zhang Yunhua has seen a green figure of lotus stems every day, appearing in the academy, and every time he sees it, he feels comfortable and at ease. After school, Zhang Yunhua always likes to accompany Zhao Qingzhou to Hanwen Pavilion to compile a bibliography together, and the two of them are transcribing while talking about the books in their hands; If you haven't read it, you will look at it together under the candlelight. One day, the two of them read "Liezi Tang Wen", and they were very emotional, Zhang Yunhua said: If you are Yu Boya in Qingzhou, then I must be in the Zhongzi period, and in this world, no one understands your strings better than me. Zhao Qingzhou smiled when he heard the words and said: "Good, the heart of the son is the same as mine." ”

At the moment, Qingzhou seemed to notice Yun Hua's gaze, turned around and smiled at him, and said softly: "I am writing "Sima Fa" silently. Zhang Yunhua said: "Good memory, you memorized all the books you read yesterday?" Zhao Qingzhou nodded: "It is written, 'Although the old country is big, the warlike will die; Although the world is safe, forgetting the war will be dangerous. The world is peaceful, the world is great, the spring is full of autumn, the princes are in the spring, and the autumn is in the army, so they don't forget to fight. ’”

Zhang Yunhua was about to say some thoughts, when he suddenly saw Xiang Kang in front of Zhao Qingzhou, as if he was about to wake up, the three girls immediately laughed and fled in all directions, and returned to their respective positions lightly. Seeing this, Li Zhuoran cooperated and shouted: "Old Xiang, look here." Xiang Kang looked back at him, he was generous and looked heroic, but at this time, his head was full of small flowers, which were contrasting and very funny.

Li Zhuoran laughed exaggeratedly, and the inkstone was about to jump. Xiang Kang sensed that something was wrong, touched the top of his head, tore off a few small flowers, and said angrily: "This... Who did this? After saying that, he was also amused, and everyone laughed together. Back then, everyone was not as weak as the crown, and they had not seen the sinister world, so they were naïve, and they all lived arbitrarily and happily. Thinking about it now, Zhang Yunhua feels that the smiling faces are like being in front of him, and they are like a world away.

"Brother Yunhua, why are you in a daze?" Tong Ning'er's voice pulled Zhang Yunhua back to reality, he crossed the threshold and walked into the hall and said, "It's nothing, your reunion reminds me of some past events." Ou Jinshu said: "Brother Yunhua, we have good news to tell you, Ning'er has already told Uncle Tong about the matter of Qingzhou, Uncle Tong said, now waiting for the conclusion of the joint review of the three divisions, if he ignores justice, he will definitely come forward to Zhou Xuan." ”

Zhang Yunhua said: "If this is the case, Qingzhou will be saved." Tong Ning'er seemed to have some worries on her mind: "But the person sent by my father to inquire about the news today went to two groups, but he didn't find any news, so it shouldn't be like this." Su Mengtang hurriedly relieved: "It should be fine, the three divisions will interrogate Lord Cheng from the Criminal Department for us, Lord Zheng of Dali Temple was an old friend of Han Qingzhi before his death, and he can't be wrong." ”

Tong Ning'er nodded and said, "Then let's wait." Ou Jinshu said: "Ning'er, do you also live in Qingpingzhai at night, the three of us haven't slept together for a long time." Tong Ning'er shook her head and said, "Not today, I'll go back and wait for news." As he spoke, he stood up and said with a smile: "Jinshu, you also go back with me, or do you want to make people suspicious here?" Ou Jinshu was puzzled: "Who will dislike me here?" Tong Ning'er said pretendly: "If you hinder other people's good deeds, you won't be disliked." ”

Ou Jinshu was puzzled, and was about to ask for an understanding, but when he saw that Su Mengtang and Zhang Yunhua looked different, he immediately laughed knowingly and said, "I am natural. . . Naturally, I'll go back with you, and it's useless for me to stay here anyway. Su Mengtang was accustomed to Tong Ning'er's jokes, so he hurriedly grabbed Ou Jinshu and said with a smile: "Jinshu, don't listen to Ning'er's nonsense, how can there be these things, you stay, and the three of us will stay together for one night." She went to see Zhang Yunhua as she spoke, hoping to be echoed. Yun Huawan'er said to Ou Jinshu and Tong Ning'er: "You guys stay, don't get in the way." ”

As soon as the words came out, the hall suddenly became extremely quiet, and Tong Ning'er was the first to break the silence and asked, "Brother Yunhua, what are you... Admit it? Behind Zhang Yunhua's ears, he suddenly turned crimson, and only said: "Admit what?" But the houses here are empty and empty. A few people were talking, when they suddenly heard Xiang Kang's voice coming from outside the hospital. As soon as Xiang Kang came in, he saw that everyone was there, and said with a slight surprise: "You are all here." ”

Ou Jinshu said: "Brother Xiang, is there any news?" Xiang Kang sat down and said, "Yes, but the news is not very good." Shi Miyuan moved out an old order, exempting Cheng from the right to try the case. Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and Tong Ning'er said, "What kind of old order is it?" Xiang Kang sighed and said: "The first emperor once said that all important cases involving members of the imperial court should be replaced by the Criminal Department of Menxia Province, and the case should be jointly tried and sentenced with Dali Temple and Yushitai. There is indeed a precedent for this in our dynasty, and this is how Lord Lu Ming's case was tried back then. ”

Zhang Yunhua clenched his palms and said to Su Mengtang and the others: "I went to the prison with Master Cheng last night and saw Qin Guoxi, it must be him who told Shi Miyuan about this. Xiang Kang nodded and said: "Now the subordinate has picked up Du Jinping and replaced Master Cheng, this person was cultivated by Shi Miyuan, and it is estimated that it is not easy to deal with." Tong Ning'er lowered her head and thought for a while, then suddenly got up and said, "Then I'll go tell my father about this now, and let him go and meet the saint." ”
