Chapter Ninety-Nine: Bright in front of people, desolate in the back

"Wow, why are there so many people?"

Xu Rui asked the other three in surprise.

They finally persuaded Zhang Zongnian, who was too excited, and the four teenagers left the Changxing Dojo in a hurry, but as soon as they went out, they saw a sea of people.

The Changxing Dojo is near the Imperial City, next to Suzaku Street, where there are enough eight carriages to move side by side.

However, at this time, Suzaku Street was overcrowded and was already blocked by countless luxurious carriages.

"Came out, came out, they came out!"

As soon as I saw the four people coming out of the Changxing Dojo, I don't know who shouted, the black crowd suddenly surrounded them, and the soldiers and scholars who were responsible for maintaining order were like fragile embankments, and they were completely submerged by the flood in a blink of an eye.

"What's going on?"

Xu Rui's face changed, and he turned around, but saw that the other three had already hid back in the Changxing Dojo at some point.

"Hey, wait for me!"

He was just about to run to the Changxing Dojo, but he heard King Yu laugh and say, "You made your own sins, bear it yourself!" ”

After speaking, he closed the door with a "bang".

"Iniquity? What iniquity have I made? ”

Xu Rui was confused, and the terrifying flow of people immediately overwhelmed him.

"I am the owner of Dong Kee's grain and oil shop, and I opened all five shops on this street...... Ouch ......"

A thin man came to Xu Rui's side and shouted excitedly, but he was forced to squeeze away after only half a sentence.

"I am the boss of the Longchang Chamber of Commerce, and all the industries in Changxing City are under my name, and there is a girl at home who is waiting for the word boudoir, which looks like the country is beautiful, and Xu Xiaoyou can inspect the goods before paying if he is interested...... Ah......h

The fat man dressed in wealth pulled Xu Rui's wrist and roared loudly, speaking as fast as a machine gun, even so, he only said a few words more than the person just now.

"Xu Zuoling, I am the steward of the Wailang family, the sixth lady of my family is twenty-eight years old, beautiful as a flower, just with your talented and beautiful woman, the lord asked me to invite Xu Zuoling to come over the house, don't go back tonight......"

"Xu Gongzi, I am the owner of Nantian Pavilion, although my sister is a widowed woman, but she was born with a sinking fish and a goose, and the family has a lot of wealth......

"Master Xu, I'm ...... Ouch, whose broken shoes?! ”

"Young Master Xu, my family has thousands of acres of fertile land outside Daxing City, and my young lady admires you very much......

"Xu Xiaolangjun, my family ......"

"Master Xu, my family, my family, don't say anything, come home with me......"

Xu Rui was squeezed and pulled by a group of gentlemen, shaking around, and there seemed to be countless flies in his ears, buzzing.

And more and more people squeezed up, and no one could finish a sentence at all, and they would be pushed aside by the latecomers, and new faces would come up with a smirk to continue the introduction.

After a long time, Xu Rui finally understood what was going on, isn't this the Song Dynasty's arrest of sons-in-law?

The so-called arrest of sons-in-law under the list means that when the high-ranking officials and nobles release the list in the imperial examination, they catch those scholars with the title of the gold list as sons-in-law, and there is a special car for catching sons-in-law for this purpose.

Such as the famous prime minister Kou Zhun, Cai Jing, Qin Hui and others have chosen sons-in-law in this way, and Ouyang Xiu, one of the eight masters of the Tang and Song dynasties, also became the son-in-law of Xue Kui, the governor of the Tang and Song dynasties, when he was just in high school.

I didn't expect that I didn't participate in the imperial examination, and I didn't enter the court to be an official, this kind of thing actually fell on my head, thinking about it, I must have just played too much in the Changxing Dojo, so that the limelight was too strong.

The gun shot the first bird, this is not to deceive me, look at today's situation, it is strange not to be torn apart by these guys.

Xu Rui smiled bitterly in his heart, his face was waxed, and the clothes on his body were already showing signs of tearing.

Across the door, King Su looked at the surging crowd outside through the crack in the door, and admired with palpitations.

"Tut, I've never seen such a crazy choice of son-in-law under the list, Brother Xu's shot is really extraordinary."

King Yu pouted: "If this Yanfu is given to you, are you willing?" ”

King Su shook his head again and again, and said with a look of fear: "No, no, if that father doesn't kill me?" ”

King Yu said with a smile: "So, this is a bitter Brother Xu, with today's feat, he is the first young talent in my Northern Dynasty, and from now on, I am afraid that the person who will be proposed will break through the threshold." ”

"Lord ......"

The two princes were joking, and Huang Zhengyuan on the side suddenly shouted King Yu.

Seeing his serious expression, King Yu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Shaojin, I was just about to ask you, since you came out of the warm pavilion, you have been sullen all the way, what's wrong?" ”

Huang Zhengyuan said with a serious face: "I originally thought that Brother Xu was only good at military strategy, and at most he could do some yin and yang techniques, but I didn't expect his Confucian attainments to be so high, and even the bottleneck that had plagued his master for ten years was easily broken by him......"

When he said this, King Yu's face became serious.

"Yes, when I saw Jinyiwei's secret report yesterday, this king only exaggerated, but I didn't expect that even Jinyiwei underestimated his ability, this person is indeed amazing, it is really enviable."

"Lord Wang, the lower official is not the ...... of this"

Huang Zhengyuan was in a hurry, and was about to elaborate, but he saw that he pressed his hand when he saw the Yu Dynasty.

"I see what you mean, but it's not the time yet."

Seeing Yuwang's resolute attitude, Huang Zhengyuan swallowed what he wanted to say into his stomach, and a deep groan flashed on his face.

"Hey, you guys are really unrighteous!"

Xu Rui's voice suddenly came from the wall, and the three of them turned around in amazement, and saw that Xu Rui was struggling to turn in from outside the wall, at this time he was in rags and his hair was scattered, like a madman.

"Brother Xu, how did you get this look?"

King Su was shocked.

"Hmph, it's good to get out alive!"

Xu Rui snorted coldly and finally jumped off the wall.

King Yu said with a smile: "Brother Xu is worthy of being a great general who is strategizing, and he can still retreat in the midst of a heavy siege, this king admires, admires!" ”

Xu Rui rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I'll let you see a joke today, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, I have to hurry up and change my clothes, if they surround the entire Changxing Dojo in a while, it will be difficult to leave." ”

As he spoke, Xu Rui trotted all the way with a red face and rushed to the back room, and the three of them couldn't help laughing when they saw his angry appearance.

"Fourth brother, Xu Rui is right, let's hurry up, be careful if the city gate is on fire and the fish in the pond will be affected."

King Su laughed.

King Yu nodded: "That's right, we still have to enter the palace, and there is not much time to delay." ”

"Into the palace?"

King Su was stunned: "Fourth brother is going to see his father?" ”

King Yu nodded: "Today's incident is so big, I have to give my father an explanation no matter what." ”

King Su frowned and said: "There are Jinyi Wei and Dongchang's son, my father is afraid that he already knows everything now, why bother with the fourth brother?" ”

King Yu shook his head: "They are them, I am me, this is the duty of a son of man, let's go, I know that you are afraid of being tested by your father, there is nothing to hide, and you can't hide." ”

After speaking, King Yu had already led Huang Zhengyuan to the side door, and King Su had no choice but to pout and follow King Yu to prepare to enter the palace to face the saint.

Xu Rui asked Zhang Zongnian for a set of scholar's cyan robes, and repeatedly made sure that no one was surrounded, so he sneakily escaped from the back door of Changxing Dojo, cautious all the way, afraid of being recognized, as if he was a thief.

By the time he finally got away from the imperial city, it was already getting dark.

The cold wind is slowing, the annoying goose feather snow is starting to fall again, the pedestrians on the road go home early to reunite, and the lively long street gradually becomes depressed.

Xu Rui snorted white gas and slowly walked towards the Yang family.

As he walked, he suddenly smelled the smell of food from a family on the street, and heard the family sitting at the dining table laughing and scolding, and couldn't help but sigh.

After the glitz, you always have to face your own heart, often the more crazy when it is lively, and the more empty it is when it is quiet.

No matter what world you are in, no matter how wonderful the day is, you always have to go home after dark, but Xu Rui has never had a home in his two lives.

In another world, he has been wandering around with Mo since he can remember, and later came to the military camp because of the war, and he regarded it as his home, but he didn't expect to come to this world to be the same.

The iron-clad battalion is always crowded and scattered, so how can the cruel place of the barracks be an ideal place to live?

It's like now, when the army returns to the camp, he has to return to the Jingwu Marquis Mansion to face those headaches and headaches.

Xu Rui's steps were a little heavy, and before he knew it, he walked to the street intersection that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

From a distance, he saw a thin figure squatting in the corner of the Hou Mansion, and Xu Ange was holding a large broken box, shivering against the cold wind.

Xu Rui knew that there must be something wrong with him, his face changed, and he walked towards him quickly.

Seeing that Xu Rui finally came back, An Ge hurriedly got up, wiped the snot off his face, and rubbed his little face that was blue from the cold, with a look of indignation.

"What's going on?"

Xu Rui came to An Ge and asked in a deep voice.

An Ge's anger did not subside, he opened his mouth, and before he could speak, the door of the Yang Mansion suddenly opened, and the steward who blocked him yesterday stuck out half of his head from behind the door, like a wild dog on the side of the street.

"Madame said, the Yang family temple is small, and it can't fit your big Bodhisattva, let you roll as far as you want, and if you dare to come back, you will break your dog's legs!"

After speaking, the steward retracted his head without looking at Xu Rui, and slammed the door shut.

After Yang Weiyuan died in battle, the orphans and widows of the Yang family lost most of their sources, and today happened to be the day of Yang Weiyuan's funeral, and they were busy from the master to the subordinates for a whole day, and they didn't know Xu Rui's feat in the Changxing Dojo.

However, with the meanness of the Yang family, even if Mrs. Yang knows all this, except for hating Xu Rui even more, I am afraid that she will not change anything.

It is human nature not to see others better than yourself, let alone people who have looked down on or hated them extremely?

The Yang family is now getting worse and worse, and the wind and rain are shaking, but Xu Rui is thriving, and everyone is in the limelight, and it is extremely difficult to accept anyone else.

"Young master, we are homeless now."

An Ge said lonely.

Xu Rui glanced at the Yang family's deep mansion compound and shook his head: "Do you think this is home?" ”

An Ge smiled bitterly: "There must be a place to stay, otherwise go back to my mother." ”

Xu Rui took the box containing the torn clothes from An Singer and threw it into the corner, which was the only property of the previous Xu Rui, but it was not the concern of the current Xu Rui.

He patted An Ge on the shoulder, put his arm around him and turned to walk out.

"An Ge, we only came out yesterday, if we go back like this, won't I be very faceless, young master? Don't worry, we will have a home, there will be a ......"

An Ge nodded, and rubbed his palms with a white breath.

"I listen to the young master, but where are we going tonight?"

Xu Rui was stunned, and suddenly heard An Ge's stomach "gurgling", so he asked, "You haven't eaten all day today?" ”

An Ge shook his head: "No one pays attention to me in the Yang family. ”

Xu Rui's heart was sour: "It just so happens that I haven't eaten either, let's go find a place to fill my stomach first, but I don't have any money, young master, I said that I would like to invite you to eat a good meal today, it seems that most of them are going to break their promises." ”

The two teenagers braved the wind and snow and walked slowly on the bleak long street, which seemed to extend infinitely and endlessly, not knowing where to return.

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of horses' hooves behind them, followed by a carriage slowly stopping behind them.

Xu Rui turned his head and saw Liu Yi walking out of the carriage, seeing the lonely figures of the two teenagers, and let out a long sigh.

"I knew it was going to be like this, get in the car."

Liu Yi lifted the curtain and pointed to the carriage with charcoal fire.

Xu Rui looked at Liu Yi, and a smile suddenly bloomed on his face.

He patted An Ge and said, "Dinner has settled, let's go." ”
