On the tenth day of the first month of June, Brother You sent a letter, saying that Qiu Shuiwang was working very hard to repair the embankment in front of him, and in just ten days, the upper reaches of the Yellow River were no longer dilapidated and incomplete.

He also mentioned it slightly, saying that Master Qiu has wanted to lose weight for more than ten years, but this figure is losing weight every year, getting fat every year, and in the past two years, he has been out of control and rushed to the animal road. This business trip was a blessing in disguise, and the volume was reduced a lot, how much did it reduce? According to reliable eyeliner, Lord Qiu lost nearly 30 pounds in ten days.

Knowing that Lord Qiu in front of me was working so hard, I was a little relieved. hid the name that appeared in the letter, and recopied a copy of Tuo Shutong and sent it to Zhao Mengqing, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.

The Yellow River is on the right track, but in the two or three years of Cheng Yu's reign, the political affairs of Jinguo can no longer be described as a simple "accumulated malpractice for a long time", I checked the archives and documents, and found that the country's affairs, large and small, are in a state of slack and stagnation, to put it simply, Cheng Yu's mother almost never took care of the country, and let his subordinates Chen Changfeng and Chen Lanting and others fake and act recklessly.

Among these lax political affairs, there is a major event related to the future of the Jin Kingdom and the fate of the people-the imperial examination.

Because Zhao Mengqing is more familiar with Zhao Mengqing, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, it is much easier to obtain the archives of the Ministry of Rites than other departments, and because Zhao Mengqing does not go to court all the year round, Yu Guan's position in power does not have much attachment and thoughts, and it is not like the officials next to him who tend to be inflammatory, and try their best to tie up Erchen in order to seek official prosperity, so I saw that the Ministry of Rites clearly and clearly recorded Er Chen's proposal to abolish the imperial examination.

"On the first day of the second month of the 42nd year of the Jin Kingdom, Chen Changfeng, the first assistant, conspired with Chen Lanting, the head of the household, to abolish the imperial examination, and succeeded. Since then, it is useless to study, civilians have a young official career to go, and there is no material for a general. The students of Guangzhou University should remember the names and ancestral homes of the two and never forget them for the rest of their lives. ”

Lord Zhao and the officials of the Ministry of Rites who still had a conscience recorded their anger one by one, and the years have not wiped it out even a minute.

I got up from the side of the bookcase, not only was I too anxious but I was also angry by Chen Changfeng and Chen Lanting's actions, I actually felt top-heavy, and then my eyes turned black, and the next second I heard a rumbling sound, and the first assistant was planted on the ground with the table, and the books, documents, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones.

"Dredging ......"

The back of my head hit the hard ground without any cushioning, and then overflowed with a dull pain, I grinned in pain and shouted Shutong, hoping that she would come to help me after hearing it, but I shouted several times but there was no response, and I remembered in a trance that she had just been instructed by me to send a letter to Zhao Mengqing about Qiu Shuiwang's water control.

There was a cold liquid spilling out of the back of my head, very slowly at first, but not only when it began to flow faster and faster, but when I came back to my senses, I felt that the strands of hair pillowed on the back of my head were soaked and adhered into a large patch, and the smell of blood floated little by little, and finally permeated the whole study, and the smell made me terrified—

Am I going to kill myself in such a stupid way today? I think.

At this moment, I looked at the beam with blindfolded eyes, and suddenly realized Du Zimei's mood when she wrote the poem: "Die before leaving the school, and the hero will be full of tears." ”

Of course, I'm not as good as Zhuge Kongming, I'm just a villain who followed the kinship and some immortality techniques that I didn't know about and asked the current emperor for the position of first assistant to experience the experience, and I stayed in this official position for a few days and suddenly had a whim, I felt that the future of Jinguo was worrying, and I felt that the first assistant had a lot to do, so I was planning some things, and wanted to let Jinguo and the people of Jinguo have a promising future.

But I had worked halfway through the reduction of the forbidden army, and then I passed out and lay down for half a month; made a start in the flood control of the Yellow River, and only then did he secretly poke and poke an idea on the restoration of the imperial examination.

How can I not sigh and mourn, how can I not burst into tears?

If people don't save me, I will save myself, and if I am not there, I can't dry up and die with blood. So he struggled a few times, and wanted to raise his right hand to push the table that was pressing on his body away, but found that his right wrist happened to be hit by a falling inkstone, and his whole right hand did not obey the call. I changed my left hand and pushed the table, and found that the table made of wenge wood was extremely heavy, so heavy that I was in a trance: how did the old lady trip such a heavy guy???

But sitting back is not my style after all.

After a brief moment of despair, I began to move my legs, trying to pull them out with all my strength. It finally worked, and after a quarter of an hour I bared my teeth and kicked and kicked them, I was able to pull out both legs.

Even though these two legs have been rubbed blood from the table and the ground, I am still overjoyed, my left hand supports the table leg and turns over, and when I look back, I see that the back of my white shirt has become bright red, and there is a large pool of terrible blood still flowing on the ground, and I feel dizzy when I land, but fortunately my left hand grabbed the table leg, otherwise these two eyes will be scared back to the ground.

The blood in the back of my head kept flowing, and I didn't dare to stay too long, so I ran out of the study with a crawl.

"Xiaoxian, didn't you say that you would go to the Zhuangyuan Bookstore to find me? Why didn't I see you at noon, I really missed you, so I came to you first. "There was a familiar voice at the gate, and it was so kind that I couldn't help but want to cry.

The sound of brisk footsteps passed through the antechamber and approached the direction where I was standing, and I couldn't hold back, tears rolling down my face.

Little boy Lan Zhou, it's good that you're here.

He came out of the corridor, and the moment he saw me, his originally cheerful and happy expression froze on his face, and the blood on his cheeks instantly froze, and finally became as white as paper. Without a moment's delay, he quickly ran over and grabbed me, and after a quick look around, he tore off a piece of his white shirt and gently wrapped it around my head, and since the bleeding was right with his back to my eyes, my eyes were also blindfolded.

"Xiaoxian, don't be afraid, I'll take you to the doctor right away." After saying that, he picked me up horizontally and walked out almost like a rush.

He told me not to be afraid, but when he said this, he trembled violently from his voice to his fingers.

I couldn't hold back any longer, shrunk my whole body in Chen Lanzhou's arms, and the grievances and bitterness came to my heart, and I cried so much that I cried. I didn't compromise half a point when I was pressed by the table case, and when I struggled out, I made myself bruised and didn't shed a single tear, but now I see the son who saved me, and when I hear him say to me, "Xiaoxian, don't be afraid", I cried so much that I couldn't help myself.

This feeling reminds me of a booklet written about the stories of the heavenly immortals that I once flipped through in my spare time, and there was a goddess named Sushu, who had gone to the mountains to pick snow and planned to make tea for her master, but at that time she had fallen into a deep pool very carelessly, and the biting water almost drowned her, but she gritted her teeth and struggled to climb the rocks on the wall of the pool, and stepped on a very small flat ground on the pool water to survive.

At that time, she couldn't stop crying like I do today. She said: "Maybe we are like that sometimes, when we are in such a difficult situation, we grit our teeth and never want to give up. But when I got through this hurdle and remembered the difficulties I had had, I couldn't help but feel wronged. Just like I was curled up on that rock at this time, obviously crawling out of the water of the extinct pool, but thinking of what happened just now, I couldn't hold back my tears anymore. ”

I have understood this in its entirety today.

"I know you're in pain, so it's better to cry like this." He said.

Flustered and rapid along the way, through the crowded crowds of people in the streets and alleys, and finally stopped in one place, which smelled strong, half medicinal and half alcoholic.

I think I know where this is, when I first came to Dijing, I walked the streets and alleys with the little boy of Lanzhou, and found that there was a small shop selling pepper and salt crispy chicken on this street, and there was a medical hall called "Bian Que Wang" opposite it, and there was a liquor store called "Li Baiyin" next to the medical hall. At that time, when I turned around with a salt-and-pepper chicken thigh, I was amazed by the names of the two restaurants.

When I came back, I had been carefully placed on the couch in the hospital, I had lost too much blood, my body was weak and I could barely move, the doctor gasped a few times when he saw this scene, and almost gave up instantly, and asked Chen Lanzhou to go directly to the coffin shop to purchase a corpse for me to collect the body on the spot.

I had to tremble and say, "I...... Not dead yet. ”

Chen Lanzhou also grabbed him and told him as calmly as possible about my main injuries.

Hearing this, the doctor took another breath of cool air, hurriedly helped me turn over, revealing the cloth soaked in blood, and called all the apprentices in the infirmary while dismantling it, copying braziers, boiling water, medicinal herbs, and gauze to launch a life rescue in a race against time.

At this moment, I was lying on my stomach and couldn't see, and my eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, but my ears were extremely sensitive, and I heard the movement in the "Li Baiyin" liquor store next door through the noisy sound in the medical hall.

The shopkeeper there laughed attentively, either meeting the big patron or meeting the big official: "The osmanthus brew that has been treasured for eight years has been kept for you!" There must be some happy event today, and this happiness is written on your face. ”

The tone of the person who came to buy the wine was really cheerful and relaxed: "An old friend came out of the cage today. ”

"Yo, it's not easy! Is it acquittal, or will he return from prison? ”

"I'm talking about a cage."

"Then I understand, you ransomed for that person, and the relationship is a girl?"

"Hmm."

The shopkeeper smiled more heartily and comfortably: "Then you can bring the wine back earlier, don't make the girl wait for a long time." ”

The wine buyer smiled and said, "What the shopkeeper said is, then I will leave first." ”

After a while, the other people in the wine shop asked, "Shopkeeper, who is the boy with jade noodles who came to buy wine?" ”

The shopkeeper sighed a few times and replied: "Fang Cai is a big man, whenever he dresses up like this, he deliberately hides it, and he doesn't want people to talk about his identity." So I can't say wow, either. ”

If he doesn't say it, no one else will know the identity of the wine buyer.

But I'm different, I've dealt with him so many times, I've had so many entanglements with him, how can I not distinguish his voice.

His Royal Highness King Chong'an, you have come to buy wine.

What a coincidence.
