Ye Hanyue accompanied Shu Qingci back to the room, and Shu Qingci watched Ye Hanyue and the second aunt in the center of the study in horror, and her palms were already scared into a lot of sweat.

"Second aunt...... I'm afraid it won't stop there? Shu Qingci looked at Ye Hanyue worriedly, biting her lips lightly, a little scared.

Ye Hanyue held her hand and said firmly: "The soldiers will block, and the water will flood." This matter has passed, and the second aunt will be unhappy when she gets up in front of the old man again. Don't be afraid, miss. ”

Shu Qingci was still not at ease, and said with some doubts: "Who is the person in Daddy's room?" In the end, she seemed to feel that it was a little inappropriate to ask Xiaoyue this question, she was just a slave in Shufu, how could she know?

Who knows, Ye Hanyue said: "He, miss, do you know that the third prince has a younger son named Huangfu Xiu?" ”

Huangfu Xiu, the son of the third prince, can recite poems at the age of seven, and can kill the enemy with a gun at the age of thirteen, majestic and heroic. When people hear his name today, they can't help but give a thumbs up and praise: Young hero!

Hearing Ye Hanyue say this, Shu Qingci's eyes widened in surprise. Covering his lips, he said, "That's ......"

Ye Hanyue smiled and said, "It's him." The second aunt was so strong in the study, which made the old man lose face in front of the little prince, and it was too late for the old man to avoid this matter now, so I said that if the second aunt mentioned this matter again, she would not be able to get along with the master. ”

Hearing this, Shu Qingci was relieved.

After Ye Hanyue placed Shu Qingci to sleep and rested, she went out alone.

As I passed through the back garden, I heard someone shouting from afar. The terrible cry was like an evil ghost climbing up from hell, listening to this sound in broad daylight also made Ye Hanyue shudder, but after a careful argument, it seemed to be a man's voice.

"Wow! Yes! Second Miss, spare me! Spare my life! Following the rhythm of the board slapping on his body, the man inhaled cold air while shouting for mercy.

Ye Hanyue pulled off the thin branches in front of her and hid under a big tree to watch. Is that...... Scholar?

The scholar was beaten, his white clothes were already soaked in blood, and his face was haggard and his shoulders hung on the ground, looking extremely miserable. When the beaters saw that he didn't move, they shouted, "Okay, almost, throw him into the grave." ”

Then, several people dragged his hand in disgust and took him away.

Ye Hanyue covered her mouth, this scene was too bloody, and the air was filled with a disgusting thick smell of blood. After a few family members left, Ye Hanyue quietly followed.

The mass grave is in the back mountain, and it is only a few streets away from Shufu. A few of the housekeepers threw the person into the pit and hurried back. Ye Hanyue took advantage of the fact that after they left, she climbed halfway up the mountain, and the scholar was lying lifeless in the pit, lying on a pile of dark and stinking things that couldn't be seen clearly.

"Scholar! Scholar, are you still alive? Ye Hanyue called him, and the scholar's eyes were already dilated, but when he heard someone calling him, he opened his eyes again.

He raised his hand, and Ye Hanyue hurriedly said, "You wait first, I'll find something for you to climb up." ”

After speaking, he went over and pulled some thick rattan on the ground, there was nothing else in the back mountain, and there were the most abandoned rattans. In just a while, Ye Hanyue made things roughly.

Throwing the rattan down, she said, "Scholar, hold it, I'll pull you up!" ”

The scholar finally didn't faint, and obediently grabbed the rattan, after Ye Hanyue tried his best to get people up, he was about to lose his strength.

Ye Hanyue saw that there was no skin on the scholar's body that was still intact, she was a little worried, and asked him a little scared: "Scholar, who beat you?" Is this the rhythm that's going to kill you? It's too much! ”

When the scholar heard this, he was even more sad, angrily pushed Ye Hanyue away, and scolded: "It's not your Shufu yet!" It's amazing to be rich! If you have money, you can take people's lives! Obviously, you paid to come to me to do something, but you still want to kill me when it's over! Woowoo...... The second aunt and the second lady of Shufu are not good things! Two tigresses! Woo woo woo ...... "The scholar wiped his sleeves and cried bitterly, Ye Hanyue was a little stunned, but when she looked back at a big man who could cry like this, she was also inexplicably surprised.

When the scholar stopped crying, Ye Hanyue leaned over and asked kindly, "Tell me, why did they beat you?" ”

The scholar said with a confused face: "They call me a fool and ruin their business." Originally, I was asking them to help them frame the eldest lady of the Shu family for a private meeting with a man and ruin the family style, but then you came over and asked me to frame the second miss of the Shu family in turn, so I wondered, who are the same among them? ”

Ye Hanyue saw that the scholar hadn't reacted yet, she was not Shu Churou's person at all, and she asked him to change her testimony to slander Shu Churou, which was her own intention, as for the purpose, of course, it was to protect the eldest lady of the Shu family from Shu Churou's false accusations.

But she didn't expect that after the scholar helped her in a daze, he would suffer such a disaster. Ye Hanyue thought about this, and couldn't help but feel a little weak.

The scholar looked at her and suddenly had an epiphany: "Oh! Yes, it's you! You're all on you, aren't you? They didn't let you tell me to change my story at all, you are framing me?! Why are you doing this! ”

Ye Hanyue was embarrassed, seeing that the scholar had an angry face, and said with some guilt: "Eh, this...... I'm Miss Shu's maid, so naturally I'm on my side, what's wrong with helping her? However, I originally thought that they would pay you to do something, and if you mess up, you can beat you up at most to relieve your anger, who knew that they were not enough to swallow elephants and wanted to kill you, this ...... I didn't think about it. Misconsidered, I'm sorry for you. ”

Ye Hanyue smiled, don't say that the scholar can't beat her without the strength of the chicken, he just wants to fight, but the matter of beating a woman is too much of a test for him, a half-scholar. In the end, the scholar was so angry that his face turned red and his eyes popped out, but he still couldn't lose his temper. In the end, as if he was angry, he drooped his head and fell to the ground and said, "Forget it, this matter will be considered unlucky for me." I deserve to do whatever it takes to get money. ”

Belch...... Seeing him like this, Ye Hanyue looked at it, and was a little worried that he would not think of committing suicide.

Ye Hanyue persuaded: "However, I said scholar, why do you do things that hurt nature and reason for money?" Insulting the innocence of a Shu family's eldest lady, wouldn't that ruin the reputation of other girls for a lifetime! ”

The scholar looked at her and said, "You don't understand. I need money because I have to go to Beijing to catch the exam. I finally walked all the way from my hometown, I spent all the money, but the exam still had to pay for pen and paper, I was a scholar, a nobody, and the means of making a living were other than writing and selling poems for money, what else could I have? But this is the capital, and I don't know how many people have both ability and political integrity, I, I have been wandering here for dozens of days, and I haven't earned half a copper coin. What can I do? ”

Ye Hanyue understood, a penny is difficult to beat a hero. However, now that he can't do anything, stealing chickens can't make rice, what will he do in the future?

Ye Hanyue coughed and said: "Ahem, scholar, but now they treat you like this, it's too much, even if you don't help them, but if you don't give money, they still want to beat you to death and throw them at the mass grave, do you hate them, do you want to take revenge on them?" ”

The scholar looked at her, his eyes vicious like a hungry dog: "Yes!" Of course I did! But...... Xiaosheng is just a grass people, and the Shu family are all powerful tigers, how can I take revenge on them? ”

Ye Hanyue smiled, snapped her fingers and said, "Scholar, you have to rely on your own power to develop, so that you won't be bullied by these powerful people." If you really want to gain fame, I'll show you a clear path. ”

When the scholar heard this, he didn't believe it, and said with some disdain: "You have a daughter's family, and you are just a maid in Shufu, what clear way can you point out to Xiaosheng?" ”

Ye Hanyue saw that he actually despised himself, and said with some resentment: "Less nonsense!" What's wrong with my daughter's house, I asked if you want to hear it? ”

The scholar thought silently for a while, Ye Hanyue turned his head to look at him, but it was the first time to see him with such a solemn expression, he straightened his waist and straightened up, his eyes were blazing, but there was really a momentum coming out, Ye Hanyue was stunned and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

The scholar made a gesture respectfully, and said with scholarly etiquette: "Please give the girl guidance, if it is really useful, Xiaosheng must be grateful in this life!" ”

Ye Hanyue was laughed at by his funny actions, and smiled without giving face: "Poofhahaha, okay, since you value me so much, scholar, that girl won't hide it." ”

Subsequently, Ye Hanyue seriously analyzed him and said: "In the imperial examination every three years, there are too many people every year, people from all over the world, talented and virtuous are like a vast sea of clouds, and among them, the children of officials and eunuchs with big family backgrounds don't know geometry, and people rely on power and money, and some are squeezed in by means. can look at you again, you have no background and no connections, that is, the money for Jiang Jingguo's national examination depends on this kind of means that cannot be put on the table, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the end of the road. At this time, how can you, who are not very talented, find your place in the vast sea of people? ”

The scholar was confused and said, "How do you know that my talent is not outstanding enough?" ”

Ye Hanyue shook her head, "What if you have talent, you also need a place where you can play, but now you obviously haven't found this place." ”

The scholar understood, his eyes shone and looked at Ye Hanyue, Ye Hanyue said: "This place, although it is not very glorious now, but you can definitely not be wrong when you go to this place to enter the office." Here, it is the student of the Ministry of Officials, Li Qingfang, who is currently in charge of the Master of Ceremonies. He is an upright, awe-inspiring and righteous person, and he attaches great importance to talents, if you go to him, if you are really talented, he will help you. ”

The scholar pondered in silence and nodded.

Ye Hanyue smiled and pointed out a clear way to him, but she knew that she would get his help in the future, so why not? The two of them walked back with their own thoughts, but after they left, Ye Hanyue didn't realize that there were two tails behind them.
