Chapter 268: Brother and Sister Settle Accounts
The people around the empress, even the eunuchs, had to be coarse.
Huang An, as the great eunuch beside the empress, has been with the empress for more than 40 years, even if he can't read big characters at first, now he can be regarded as a literati under the influence of his ears and eyes.
Huang San has been recognized by Huang An as a righteous son since he was five years old, and reading and literacy are indispensable, so he naturally knows Ma Qian and Cai Hou of Taishi Company.
But how many years have there been eunuchs, but there has only been a Taishi Gong and a Cai Hou.
Those historical figures from seven or eight hundred years ago are too far away, and these two eunuchs who are famous in history will be used to inspire the little eunuchs who have just entered the palace, and eunuchs like him who have been in the palace for more than ten years, if they still believe in these words, they will no longer be on errands by the empress's side.
You must know that because of his low status and the fact that he is Huang An's righteous son, too many people have said such similar things to him.
Therefore, he listened to Liu Chenxing's words of encouragement, but when he heard Liu Chenxing use himself as a metaphor, Huang San's eyes lit up.
People are like this, too far and too tall to benchmark up, just like the moon in the glasses in the water, empty!
But it's different when you benchmark yourself against the people around you.
As Liu Chenxing himself said, two years ago, no one expected that she would become the first female champion in the country.
Even before the palace examination, even if Liu Chenxing ranked first in the provincial high school examination, when he thought that she was just a peasant girl who had been farming for generations, how could he take Liu Chenxing in his eyes at that time, and he paid more attention to Ouyang Zijin's niece Zheng Wanqing and Jiang Guogong's concubine Xiao Sisi.
It is estimated that it was not only him at that time, but who would have thought that a female lifter like Liu Chenxing would be able to retreat from the triage of the three divisions, and her spirit was not affected in any way to win the championship in the palace examination in one fell swoop, not to mention becoming the first female champion in the country, or a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven?
And judging from the fact that the empress suddenly rewarded Liu Chenxing in the Zichen Hall today, it is likely that the martial arts will be increased, and Liu Chenxing, the proposer, will leave a mark in the history books again.
He Huang San also thinks that he is no worse than anyone else, Liu Chenxing, a peasant girl in a rural mountain village, can leave a name in history, why can't he Huang San!?
At that time, who will despise him as a crippled eunuch?
Huang San is like an initiation at the moment.
He is only twenty years old, and he still has decades to go down in history.
Thinking of this, Huang San immediately bowed to Liu Chenxing and sincerely thanked: "Liu Bangshou, thank you for mentioning it." β
Liu Chenxing looked uncertain and denied it: "Father-in-law San'er, what did you mention?" I'm just expressing my own opinions. β
There are some things that don't need to be said explicitly, and we both know it in our hearts.
The two of them looked at each other again and smiled tacitly.
It was almost noon when they met again, and the two of them had been talking outside the palace gate very well, so they made an appointment with Liu Chenxing to return to Beijing two months later, and they separated.
This year's palace test is the first one, not to mention that there are no two titles, Tanhua and Bangyan, and there is no champion Lang in the streets.
The people who tried the palace tested, listened to their respective rankings in front of the palace, and then followed a meal under the corridor, and after leaving the palace, they went back to their respective homes.
Other moves can go, but Liu Qingshan can't go in style, his sister is still in the palace.
If so, Liu Chenxing and Huang San separated, and as soon as they turned their heads, they saw Liu Qingshan walking over with a concerned face.
Honor, joy of course to share with the closest people, as soon as he saw Liu Qingshan, who was not only a brother-in-law, but also the best partner on the road to the scientific expedition, Liu Chenxing could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart, holding the wooden box worth a thousand gold in his arms to meet it, it was a burst of bamboo tubes pouring beans, crackling to play his own duet in front of the palace, and then won the queen's reward, and said it all in one go.
As brother and sister who pit each other, it is rare to see a sister who has always been stable, and suddenly became Xue Yuan's second, chattering like a little sparrow, Liu Qingshan felt that he should make fun of it.
But wait, what did he hear?
Ah Mei, who had worried him all morning, didn't know how many glances he had seen at Danfeng Gate, not only retired from the empress, but also got a house near Dongshi, ten taels of gold for the journey, and the royal brocade clothes for Aya and A-Niang!?
Reacting to what his sister said, Liu Qingshan couldn't help but gasp.
"Oh my God!" In the crowded Pingkang Fang, Liu Qingshan looked up at the sky while incarnating as a coolie to hold a wooden box on behalf of his sister, "There is such a cruel girl, and you can't let people live!" β
Brother and sister for more than ten years, who don't understand whom.
knew that Liu Qingshan was just talking, but in fact, he was happier than her.
The reason is very simple, because she can stand on her own, Liu Qingshan can take care of her sister less.
Thinking that since he set foot on the imperial examination, in order to cooperate with her younger sister, Liu Qingshan has consciously kept them in lockstep, so that he can be by his side to protect her safety and block out the injustice and gossip about women in this world.
She remembered all the bits and pieces along the way, Liu Chenxing's heart was warm, but her face was proud, her chin was proud, her hands were behind her back, and she said swaggeringly while walking: "After I go back to my hometown and take Aya, Auntie, and Grandma to Chang'an, I will go to the palace on an errand." Brother, if you don't work harder, you will only be thrown farther and farther away by me! β
Yes, although they are all from Jinshi.
But he still has to wait for four years to pass the selection assessment before he can be officially awarded an official position.
Liu Qingshan's hand holding the wooden box tightened, and he looked sideways at Liu Chenxing, who was full of confidence and joy between his eyebrows, he put down the hippie smile and said in a firm tone: "I will take this year's subject selection exam, and I will not lag behind you for too long." β
Only by passing the subject selection examination can he obtain an official position as soon as possible.
Liu Qingshan silently set a goal in his heart, and then said: "I am the eldest son, and I should bear the responsibility of raising Ye Niang, and I also know that you have more money than me, so I will not fight with you about housing, but let me take the household goods that you should buy in your new house." β
As the old saying goes, brothers settle accounts, which is also the self-esteem of brothers.
Liu Chenxing understood why Liu Qingshan was responsible for the household goods in her new house, and knew that Liu Qingshan still shared a lot of money by relying on the hot pot restaurant, and the new house was added, and Brother could afford it, so he nodded and said with a smile: "That's a good feeling, I'll make another deal, and Brother Lao will be in the new house!" When he said that, he smiled as if he had taken advantage of it.
Liu Qingshan was relieved when he heard this, and his face also laughed, and said: "You only have two months to go back and forth, and we have to quickly arrange the new house before we leave home, and Ye Niang and Grandma will have a place to live when they come!" β
While talking, he has come to Aunt Liu's spicy hot stall.
If so, the brother and sister used a large bowl of steamed vegetables and rice for lunch, and hurried to see the new house.
