In the grass house, Gu Meng looked at Qin Mo with a strange gaze.

Qin Mo's expression was calm, and he said while practicing calligraphy: "I don't mind if you look at me with adoring eyes, but it's a bit too much to keep looking at me for half an hour without blinking." ”

Gu Meng raised his right hand to make a gesture to fight, and said, "If it weren't for your hard work, I would have beaten you to death." ”

He couldn't understand one thing, Qin Mo was only eighteen years old, and he was born poor, he didn't look like he had seen the world, why he had such a good grasp of human feelings.

For example, the method of dealing with Feng Yue just now can be called seamless.

Thinking back to when he was young, not only was his blood strong, but his brain was also a tendon, and he couldn't resist it at all in front of Cai You, who had been influenced by officialdom since he was a child.

At that time, Cai You basically did not use the power of the Cai family, which had already made Gu Meng anxious.

And when he figured it all out, it was already ten years later.

He thought more than once that if God could give him another chance, he would definitely be able to defeat the enemy, instead of living a miserable life for more than ten years.

Qin Mo shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since you have already figured everything out, why don't you come out again?"

Gu Meng shook his head and said with a gloomy face: "After so much time, the edges and corners of his body have long been smoothed, and the heart of fame and fortune has been completely downplayed, so what's the point of fighting again." ”

Qin Mo Zhengse said: "You are only in your thirties, there is still a period of time before you are not confused, and you are not seventy or eighty, indifferent fame and fortune are far away from you!

Gu Meng raised his head and said, "At least I got a peace, and Cai You didn't deal with me again." ”

"This tranquility is only temporary, and it is not always permanent. Qin Mo shook his head and said, "If it weren't for me, the 'No. 1 child in the world', and you continued to maintain this state, maybe the Cai family would never have remembered that there was such a person as you in their lives." But now, the fact that you are my mentor has spread all over the country, and with your achievements in Xia Seal, it is difficult for the Cai family to forget you. ”

Gu Meng frowned and said, "It won't be so unlucky." ”

Qin Mo sneered: "The Cai family can have today's status, do you think it was obtained by accident? The old thief has been shrewd and cautious all his life, and several sons have inherited this kind of character from him, and now there are five people who are ranked among the bachelors, and Cai You is the best among them. More than ten years ago, he became famous by stealing your achievements, and now he is in the stage of success, face has become extremely important, and he is even more afraid that this ugly thing will be exposed. ”

Gu Meng was silent, waiting for his next words.

"If you continue to be calm, Cai You will feel that you have completely accepted your fate and will no longer be a threat to him. Qin Mo continued to analyze and said, "Now, you have personally taught a 'No. 1 child in the world', what will he think?"

He will definitely think that this is your strategy, and using this means as a way to make a comeback, the mother is valued by the son, and the teacher is respected by the apprentice, which is the same reason.

Therefore, your so-called peaceful life has passed, and if you don't want the tragedy of more than ten years ago to happen again, you should take the initiative instead of hiding here and passively defending.

Only when you become strong can you have the ability to fight the enemy, so not only can you not be indifferent to fame and fortune, but it is also necessary to find the long-lost fame and fortune to motivate yourself.

Think about how high-spirited you were back then, are you really willing to let your enthusiasm turn into nothingness? Cai You has suppressed you for so many years, you should fight back, even if it is the result of the mantis arm as a car in the end, at least it proves that you have resisted, not a wasted life. ”

After hearing these words, Gu Meng's heart was already shaken.

Qin Mo saw that there was some effect, and immediately said: "Cai Jing's old thief has controlled the government for many years, which has led to the rise of public resentment, and various places have risen up against the imperial court;

Internal and external troubles, the Great Song Dynasty is in the midst of ups and downs, there is a possibility of overturning at any time, the ancients are responsible for the rise and fall of the world, even if they can't turn the tide and can't save the people from hanging upside down, at least they must do their part for the country and the people. ”

Gu Meng's eyes seemed to be lit with flames, once upon a time, he was also a hot-blooded young man who was dedicated to serving the country, with the dream of reviving the Great Song Dynasty, although he had not thought about it for many years, but now he still can't help but boil his blood when he thinks about it.

But after being silent for so long, an ambition has long since ceased to exist, and he suddenly feels lost, not knowing what to do next.

Qin Mo had been carefully observing the changes in his expression, he first ignited the flame of hope, and then his face became as dead as ashes, and he knew what was going on in his heart, and now he needed someone else's help to point out the right path.

"Retake the Wendao Imperial Examination and get back the glory that should have belonged to you fourteen years ago. Qin Mo said in a deep voice: "Let everyone in the world know that you Gu Xianzhao is not a person who steals his life, and let the Cai family feel frightened for your re-rise." ”

Gu Meng's eyes lit up again, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said: "That's right, offense is the best defense, since the Cai family can't tolerate me, I can't make them feel better, it's a big deal to end up together!"

Qin Mo gave a thumbs up and said sincerely, "Dr. Gu is mighty!"

Gu Meng took a few deep breaths one after another and said: "At the beginning of spring next year, I will leave for Bianliang, Tokyo to participate in the examination, and this time I will definitely win the top prize." ”

Qin Mo said with a smile: "You don't need next spring, you can do it this year." ”

"This year?" Gu Meng glared at him and said, "It's almost halfway through this year, and the exam is once every three years, so you won't forget all the common sense." ”

"Of course I haven't forgotten, maybe there will be Enko this year. Qin Mo said mysteriously.

The examination will be held once every three years, and each time it is held in the spring, and it is called Chunqiu. However, in addition to the normal examination, when encountering major victories, royal birthdays, etc., the imperial court will increase the opportunity to take the exam, which is for Enke.

Gu Meng frowned and said, "How did you know that there would be Enko?"

Qin Mo chuckled in his heart, why did he know?

Because he has seen Jiawang Zhao Kai, Zhao Kai is the most noble champion in Chinese history, he secretly participated in the scientific examination of the first year of Chonghe, not only shined in the examination, but also won the first place in the palace examination.

Of course, in the end, he didn't become the champion.

In order to avoid suspicion, so as not to doubt the fairness of the scientific examination, Emperor Zhao Ji was not allowed to point Zhao Kai to the second place and promote the original second place to the champion.

Qin Mo happened to see this history in his previous life and remembered it very clearly.

In terms of time, the eighth year of Zhenghe and the first year of Chonghe are the same year, and the change of the era name occurs at the end of the autumn of this year, which is called the change of yuan.

When the yuan was changed, Zhao Jiyi was happy, and ordered to add an enke in the year of the year, and ordered the whole country to enter Beijing to take the exam.

As soon as this news came out, the world was boiling!

Because in this way, it is equivalent to everyone having two opportunities to take the entrance examination, it doesn't matter if you can't take the entrance examination, you can take the normal imperial examination in three months, and the number of scholars is the same twice, so the chance of high school will naturally be doubled.

If it weren't for seeing Zhao Kai in Miaoyinguan, it would be difficult for Qin Mo to think of these things.

In order to help Gu Meng regain his confidence, he told him about this matter, in fact, it should be kept secret, after all, even the emperor himself has not yet changed the idea of Yuan and Kaienke, how did he know about it.

But this kind of small problem couldn't stop him at all, and he said with a normal expression: "You forgot, I saw Lao Dao yesterday...... Ahem, when I met Tanhai Zhenren yesterday, I happened to meet Jiawang Zhao Kai who was telling fortunes, and I overheard the real person talk about it, so I learned. ”

Gu Meng's eyes lit up and he said, "Great, Tanhai Zhenren has no last resort, he said that if there is Enke......, there must be Enke! No, from this moment on, I will enter the state of preparing for the exam, and don't think about affecting me with big things!"

Seeing him regain his confidence, Qin Mo felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

......

April 16, afternoon.

Gu Meng reluctantly sat into the carriage, the coachman raised his long whip, and the carriage drove out of the gate of the county school.

In the carriage, Qin Mo said with a smile: "What's wrong with Dr. Gu, his face is full of sullenness. ”

Gu Meng said angrily: "I'm working hard to practice calligraphy, I was going to finish writing the ink of three inkstones today, but as soon as I found the feeling, I was stuffed into this carriage, how do you say I am happy?"

Qin Mo shook his head and said, "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, you should understand such a simple truth." ”

Gu Meng glanced at him and said, "I wasted too much good time before, and now I suddenly feel that there is not enough time, can't I?"

Qin Mo shrugged his shoulders and said: "Lord County respectfully invites, of course we have to go over, early tomorrow morning, he and He Changxue are going to the capital together, one will accept the Shuchang examination, and the other will accept the Hanlin assessment, the two of them can think of us on the eve of the battle, what a big face." ”

Gu Meng nodded and said, "It makes sense, the sophistication of people is my shortcoming, you have to remind me more in the future, lest I do something wrong." ”

Qin Mo smiled: "No problem." ”

Gu Meng's willingness to put away his previous arrogant personality shows that his desire for fame and fortune has not been completely extinguished, and has been successfully stimulated, which is definitely a great thing.

Encouraging him to take the imperial examination is also good for Qin Mo, Gu Meng has traveled on the road, where there are pits and thunder, he will teach Qin Mo these experiences to avoid him from making the same mistakes.

The carriage came all the way to the county seat, crossed several streets and stopped at the back gate of the county office.

The master personally went out to greet him, and the etiquette was full.

"The two of you, please come in, the county lord has been waiting for a long time, and He Xuezheng, waiting for the two of you to start the table as soon as you arrive. The master smiled all over his face and made a gesture of please.

Qin Mo blinked his eyes and asked, "Is there only the two of Xianzun and Xuezheng?"
