Chapter 3 The Clouds and Waves

"Slap" Huangfu Xue slapped on An Mingchen's table, and said indignantly: "Just say it, is there such a sick person?" Appetite better than our youngsters? ”

An Mingchen also reflected the strangeness of the matter at this time, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and then he knew the cause and effect.

"This time, I'm afraid it's coming for me." Putting the book on the table, An Mingchen said leisurely.

"What do you mean?" Huang Fuxue didn't understand a little, didn't he blame himself for ruining his reputation as Xie Yuan before? How did this happen to me again?

An Mingchen left his seat, his eyes were gloomy, and he looked out the window, "I am about to enter Beijing to catch the exam, four scientific examinations, I have won the crown, if I can win the Huiyuan and the champion again, then I will be the third time in this dynasty to win the six-yuan champion of the big and small three yuan, and it is a continuous exam, I have not stopped halfway, and my fame will directly overshadow the five consecutive crowns of the current dynasty." ”

Huangfu Xue nodded, although she didn't know much about the ancient scientific research system, but the six-yuan champion still sounded quite powerful.

"Now the dispute between the old and new parties, the new party occupies the matter of the imperial examination, a few days ago, the new party has come to me to negotiate, it can be said that my position as the champion is almost ironclad, there is no doubt about it." Saying that, An Mingchen frowned: "But if you miss this time, it may not be next time, and it is possible to fall off the list." ”

After all, if a generation of old parties is replaced by a new party, who can laugh often?

Huang Fuxue gradually heard the meaning, "You, are you saying that this time my father's illness was a trap deliberately designed by someone?" ”

"It's just a little joke, if my father-in-law dies because of you and me, not to mention whether someone will make a big fuss about it, just keep filial piety for three years, I will be admitted, and I will never be able to become an official."

Huangfu Xue couldn't help but sigh secretly, she didn't expect that there was such a relationship in it, she naturally knew about filial piety, but the person behind it was so scheming, even this could be calculated.

An Mingchen continued to ponder, this matter is not something that the little Huangfu family can plan, but a dispute between the old and new parties, but who is this person from the old party who wants to put him to death?

"Let's join forces." Huangfu Xue said suddenly.

"What do you mean?" An Mingchen looked at him suspiciously, not that he didn't understand what he meant, but that he knew that he and Huangfu Xue actually didn't like each other, and it was really unexpected that she could propose to join forces.

"This incident started because of me, so naturally I can't be left alone, but you won't sit still, right?"

Huangfu Xue stared at An Mingchen, who met her gaze.

After a long time, An Mingchen retracted his gaze, his eyes firm and bright: "A gentleman should be harmless, but he should have the power to protect himself, and he has been studying hard for more than ten years, and I will never let them get their wish in this matter." ”

Huang Fuxue smiled slightly as expected, "Each other, so I said, join forces." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to An Mingchen.

An Mingchen didn't know what this meant, but instinctively, he also stretched out his hand and held Huangfu Xue.

In this way, the two people, who were still-for-tat and looked at each other before, finally stood side by side under the clear blue sky.

It was a simple alliance, after all, in modern times, when signing a contract with a customer, Huang Fuxue would also shake hands with the other party to show respect, but now, feeling the warmth of the man's palm, Huang Fuxue was suddenly a little embarrassed, and was in a hurry to pull out his hand.

But at this moment, An Mingchen clenched tighter, and when Huang Fuxue looked up at him suspiciously, he realized his gaffe, turned his face a little uncomfortably, and let go of his hand.

"It's me who was rude." An Mingchen coughed lightly, fiddled with his sleeves pretending not to care, and said softly.

Although there was no flaw on his face, he almost despised himself ten thousand times in his heart, just now, how could he not want to let go of her hand?

“… It's okay. Huangfu Xue was a little overwhelmed by this slightly ambiguous atmosphere, and only touched her nose dryly and replied.

The next day, An Mingchen came back from the street and suddenly said to Huangfu Xue: "It's from the eldest sister's side." ”

"You mean Huangfu Yue?"

"That's right, just now on the street, I overheard that those who were talking about it had said: 'The old man Huangfu is going to die, this is from the people around the Huangfu family, the empress Fuyue, do you think it's true?' An Mingchen then affirmed: "Therefore, this matter must be inseparable from Huangfu Yue." ”

Huang Fuxue touched her chin and thought about it, that day, when Huang Fuyue entered the old man's house, she would definitely know that her father was fine. So why did her descendants still make such remarks?

Could it be that he was instructed by someone?

That night, the two suddenly found that Huangfu Yue's personal maid Magnolia sneakily went out.

An Mingchen was about to catch up directly, but Huangfu Xue said: "If it is really related to the party dispute, once you are discovered, things will become very troublesome at that time, so I should go alone." ”

"Nope." An Mingchen immediately refused: "It's night, you are a woman..."

"It's because I'm a woman, I don't go out of the door, so I won't be recognized, don't worry, I'm only tracking, and I'll come back to discuss with you after I hear something." Saying that, Huangfu Xue was anxious to follow, but suddenly someone grabbed her arm.

An Mingchen frowned, his lips moved and moved, and finally he only said, "Be careful." ”

Huangfu Xue nodded, quietly followed Yulan out of the door, came to a ruined temple outside the city, and waited for a long time without anyone coming.

"What's the situation? She can't come in the middle of the night to worship the Buddha, right? ”

Huangfu Xue was wondering in her heart, when suddenly, the back of her head hurt, her eyes suddenly darkened, and she fell straight down.

I don't know how long it took for Huangfu Xue to gradually regain consciousness, and the voices of men and women came intermittently in her ears.

"How did you get her?"

This voice, is it Magnolia?

"If we don't hold her, she'll reveal our affairs."

Man? Is it the old partisan guy?

This idea was quickly dismissed by what they said next.

"yes." Yulan couldn't help but worry: "If this matter of your friendship with me is discovered, it will really be over." ”

Cheating?

Huangfu Xue sighed secretly, it turned out that she had come here to steal her lover for a long time, what a waste of physical strength and feelings, she thought it was behind the scenes...

Wait, something seems wrong.

If the old party wants to achieve its goal, it is one step away - that is, the death of the old man Huangfu.

As for the news An Mingchen heard this morning, if it wasn't unintentionally revealed, it was intentional, if An Mingchen came with him this time, wouldn't it be the most perfect criminal situation.

Oh no, she had to go back quickly.

Maybe there were no tools outside, so she wasn't tied up.

Huang Fuxue looked at the two people in the room again, and as soon as her heart moved, she had an idea.

"I really can't let people know."

Huangfu Xue's sudden sound startled both of them, but the next words directly made them completely collapse.

"As far as I know." Huangfu Xue smiled at Yulan: "You have long been Wu Hu's maid, right?" ”

"What?" The man looked at Yulan in surprise: "You, you have long been on good terms with Wu Hu." ”

"I, I." Magnolia panicked.

"You obviously told me that you can't let people know now that you can make more money in the Huangfu family, but I didn't expect you, you actually lied to me?"

The two argued fiercely, and Huangfu Xue took the opportunity to find the wooden stick in the corner, quietly walked behind the man, and waved the stick down.
