Chapter 146: Empty Eyes

Zhou Yusheng's face was obviously a little nervous, his hands didn't know where to swing, his eyes were fluttering, but his tone was forced to be casual, "Since my father is free, let's check!" ”

On weekdays, he got into trouble, Zhou Tianmu had never seen him like this, but now that he is studying seriously, it is like he was caught in trouble.

Bai Shuqin immediately went to take the three books on the desk aside, and then ripped his chair away and let Zhou Tianmu sit down. She poured him another cup of tea, and then said to Zhou Yusheng, "Let's start!" ”

Zhou Yusheng didn't dare to look directly into Zhou Tianmu's eyes, his hand was half-clenched, and a lot of fine sweat was already oozing.

It's one thing to endorse it yourself, but it's another thing to really endorse it under Zhou Tianmu's nose. The content that was originally familiar to him suddenly seemed to disappear at this moment, and no matter what he thought, he couldn't remember anything.

After being silent for a while, Zhou Yusheng looked up and accidentally caught a glimpse of Zhou Tianmu's face being a little impatient, so he became even more nervous.

In front of Zhou Tianmu, he was not able to recite the book once, and every time Zhou Tianmu checked the prince, it was a nightmare for him. His embarrassment, and the ridicule of the other princes, was once his nightmare.

Later, he simply gave up, and he himself thought that he was useless, and he simply pretended not to care about this kind of examination.

But in fact, only he knows that in his dreams, he has dreamed more than once that he talked about state affairs in front of Zhou Tianmu and other civil and military ministers, and the content of the book is even more backwards.

However, after waking up, this kind of examination was regarded as a joke by him, and he didn't want to see Zhou Tianmu's disappointed eyes at all.

Bai Shuqin sensed that something was wrong with Zhou Yusheng, and she said softly: "Prince, Shibei should be impressed for three days, yesterday has passed, and tomorrow will come!" ”

A word woke up the person in the dream, and Zhou Yusheng's eyes brightened. He nodded to Bai Shuqin, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and blurted out: "Emperor, the name of heaven." Heaven in the form of the body..."

The content of the book in my head is like the water that opens the floodgates, pouring for thousands of miles.

Zhou Tianmu looked surprised when he heard this, and he was only slightly surprised at first, but when Zhou Yusheng finished memorizing the two books, he was already full of surprise. In addition to surprise, there was surprise in his eyes.

Bai Shuqin smiled with satisfaction on the side, but that wasn't enough. If Zhou Yusheng can recite the third book as well, it will be really perfect.

I don't know if it was stimulated, Zhou Yusheng's head about the second pulse of Ren Du about learning seemed to have been opened, and he even memorized the third book. Although there were some pauses in the middle, it was indeed the end of the memorization.

"Yes, you've memorized it all, you don't need to think about it behind closed doors." Zhou Tianmu's tone was a little excited, he knew that Zhou Yusheng was smart, as long as he worked hard, he would definitely be able to.

Zhou Yusheng was also very happy, he obviously wanted to cheer, but he still raised his head proudly, "This little thing is nothing." ”

Bai Shuqin saw that the corners of Zhou Yusheng's mouth were about to go to the sky, but seeing that they didn't plan to mention her, she hurriedly reminded on the side: "Your Majesty, do you remember our bet?" ”

Zhou Tianmu turned his head to look at Bai Shuqin, and said with a smile: "Of course I remember, from today onwards, I will officially crown you as the crown prince and the prince, and be responsible for all the prince's studies!" Tomorrow, I will officially issue an edict! ”

"Emperor Xie, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" Bai Shuqin jumped up happily, and Zhou Tianmu laughed again.

The first step of the plan was perfectly achieved, and it was one day faster than Bai Shuqin expected. This is entirely thanks to Zhou Yusheng, his own efforts.

Bai Shuqin had long thought that none of the other princes was stupid, and Zhou Yusheng couldn't have been so unlucky to mutate. In this way, what she thought was really right, Zhou Yusheng subjectively rejected learning and opened the door of his heart, and he would not learn slower than others.

Next, Bai Shuqin's main task was to get the news out of Zhou Yusheng's mouth, and Nangong Che didn't have much time for her, only ten days left.

If there was no result in ten days, Bai Shuqin knew that he would definitely not let him go, although he had already given her extra medicine in advance.

The spring outside the capital is infinite, but Du Zijun and his party have no intention of looking at the scenery. When they got out of the city gate, they found that there were several forks in the road, and they didn't know which way Bai Shuqin was going.

"Sister Qing, you live in the same room with the Third Imperial Concubine, and you heard which way the Third Imperial Concubine came from." Du Zijun handed over the question to Qingluan.

Qingluan didn't want to pay attention to him when he heard his words, and rolled his eyes at him directly, "You belong to a dog, and you should smell the important smell!" ”

When Du Zijun heard it, didn't he scold him for being a dog? But thinking about his own words just now, it seems that he also offended her, so he doesn't care. He looked a little more serious, and began to analyze which way Bai Shuqin was going from.

"The third princess must have gone to Jiangzhou, and her mother is buried there!" Du Zijun felt that his idea was particularly reasonable, and immediately wanted to go to the road in the direction of Jiangzhou.

Beizhu hurriedly called out to him, "Brother Zijun, I don't think Sister Bai will go there for the time being." ”

If Qingluan said this, Du Zijun would still be able to understand it, but when it came out of Beizhu's mouth, he didn't understand, "Why?" ”

"Sister Bai, she doesn't like to tell others about her misfortune, and she definitely doesn't want her mother to worry, so I don't think she will go to Jiangzhou." Beizhu said rationally, she knew Bai Shuqin a little better than Du Zijun.

Du Zijun still couldn't understand, but if they didn't go, he wouldn't be able to drag the two of them hard. He spread his hands helplessly, "Then you say, where did the third imperial concubine go." ”

Beizhu didn't have a clue, and at this time it was Qingluan who spoke: "Instead of looking for it aimlessly like this, let's go back first." ”

"Before this starts, you give up first, and it's really a white-eyed wolf!" Du Zijun complained.

"Who do you say is a white-eyed wolf? Do you think it's okay to waste manpower and material resources to find a needle in a haystack? If you are really good for the third imperial concubine, you should think about it from her point of view. Qingluan shot back unceremoniously, Bai Shuqin was not sad to leave her, but she would not do meaningless things because of this.

Du Zijun blushed and retorted: "The third imperial concubine has not been seen for so long, I haven't seen you worry, you are not a white-eyed wolf, who is a white-eyed wolf?" ”

Qingluan's eyes turned red instantly, but her reason did not allow her to shed tears in front of others. She raised her head a little higher, calmed down, and opened her mouth to find that her voice was a little choked, and she simply stopped speaking.

Her reaction was beyond Du Zijun's imagination, and Beizhu also felt that he was a little too much, and whispered to her, "Brother Zijun, you shouldn't say that." ”

Du Zijun also realized that he had said the wrong thing, he actually said Qingluan like this, and if Bai Shuqin knew about it, he would definitely say that he was not a big husband enough. He rode the red rabbit towards Qingluan a little closer, his face full of apologies, "Sister Qing, I just talked nonsense, you scold me!" ”

Qingluan didn't want to pay attention to him, so he drooped his head and blamed himself: "My mouth really deserves to be beaten, all the mistakes are its fault, it's okay if you're angry with me, but don't be angry with your body." If you really don't get angry, hit me twice! ”

As he spoke, Du Zijun stretched out a face to Qingluan, and pointed to his right face as he stretched it back, "Just hit this, my face is strong, you can rest assured!" ”

"Brother Zijun, do you mean you have a thick skin?" Beizhu added oil and vinegar to the side.

Qingluan snorted out laughing and pushed Du Zijun's face away with her hand, "Okay, the important thing now is to decide what to do next." I suggest going back and waiting for news, what do you guys think? ”

They finally came out, and of course they didn't want to go back so quickly. Du Zijun's opinion had been rejected, and he looked at Beizhu to hear if she had any opinions.

Beizhu was worried that Bai Shuqin would be taken away by the Soulless, but she didn't find any trace of the Soulless. She regretted that she had used up the three opportunities to contact her mother too soon, and if she hadn't, she would have listened to her opinion.

Now everything can only rely on Beizhu herself, she thought about it, and still agreed with Qingluan's idea, instead of looking for it aimlessly, it is better to go back and wait for news.

"Sister Qingluan, listen to you!" North Nagisa Road.

Qingluan turned his head to look at Du Zijun, Du Zijun spread his hands helplessly, "The minority obeys the majority, both of you have said so, then do it!" ”

"Okay, then we'll go back first." Qingluan turned his horse's head and walked in the direction of the capital.

After Bai Shuqin left, Baohetang continued to operate as usual, and the people inside were not affected. Now that the reputation of Baohetang has been beaten, even if it is out of the protection of the three princes, it can still be on its own.

The others were still working step by step, only Xu Fei was worried all day long.

Du Zijun and the others came back from outside the capital, Qingluan returned to the Three Princes' Mansion, and he took Beizhu to Baohetang, after all, it was more likely that Bai Shuqin would return to Baohetang first.

Xu Fei was biting the pen at the moment, his eyes were empty, and his eyes didn't brighten up until Du Zijun and them came in.

"Is the Third Imperial Concubine back?" Xu Fei put down the pen and asked them.

Beizhu shook his head, "Not yet." ”

Xu Feigang's face was a little angry, and he suddenly became decadent again. He continued to bite the pen, his eyes vacant, not knowing what he was thinking.

Du Zijun felt that he was a little strange, and walked over and snatched the pen that he was biting, "What are you pretending to be pondering here?" Suddenly concerned about his three imperial concubines, what is your conspiracy? ”

"What a conspiracy I have! Babble! Xu Fei straightened up and went to get his pen back.

Du Zijun looked at him suspiciously, as if thinking about the truth of his words. Although these days, he has been busy looking for Bai Shuqin and has not messed around with Xu Fei much, but Xu Fei, a scholar, is absolutely impossible to take the initiative to care about foreign affairs.

There were many people to see a doctor, and the lobby was in a hurry, Xu Fei took the pen from Du Zijun's hand and pulled him to the small corner behind the account.

He said to Du Zijun with a sad face: "Do you know how the progress of the bribery case in the imperial examination we investigated before?" ”

"I don't know." Du Zijun replied simply, he was just responsible for doing things for Bai Shuqin. As for what happened later, if Bai Shuqin didn't have an accident, he would care about it, but Bai Shuqin was gone, how could he have the kung fu to take care of that matter.

However, as soon as Xu Fei asked like this, Du Zijun immediately understood what he was worried about, and he suddenly realized: "Are you afraid that those who take bribes will not be arrested, and you still have no hope for the imperial examination, right?" ”

"Hey, there are eggs under the nest?" Xu Fei sighed, if he knew that Bai Shuqin was not there, no one would care about this matter, and he would leave her anyway.

Du Zijun didn't understand what he said, but seeing him so sad and sad, he comforted him, "It's okay, isn't there still a third prince here?" ”

Xu Fei suddenly rekindled his hope, but it dimmed again in an instant.

Zhuo Jinxuan hadn't been to Boholtang for a long time, and he didn't have a chance to find it. He looked at Du Zijun and thought that he was living in the Three Princes' Mansion, so he quickly grabbed his sleeve and begged him with kind words, "Brother Zijun, can you help me ask the Third Prince how this matter is going?" ”

Du Zijun's goosebumps fell to the ground when he shouted "Brother Zijun", he shivered, rubbed his arm, and reluctantly agreed: "I know, I'll help you ask when I see it." ”

With Du Zijun's words, Xu Fei's heart was a little more steady.
