Chapter 6: Long-lost news
"Miss, Miss!"
Xiangru trotted all the way, her cheeks were red from the wind, and rushed into the study, at this time Nanyu was bowing her head to practice calligraphy.
Seeing her running into the study so eagerly, Nan Yu knew in her heart that it was probably the news of Qin Tianjian.
Sure enough.
"Miss, I went out to buy groceries today, and I finally saw a notice at the door of the Qin Tianjian you mentioned," Xiangru gasped as she said.
"You speak slowly, don't be in a hurry," Nanyu hurriedly got up and poured a cup of hot tea for Xiangru, and helped her smooth out.
After a cup of hot tea, Xiangru gradually eased up, and then said, "Miss, Qin Tianjian's notice today said that the eighth day of the third month is the day to select the sons and daughters of each family to enter the school, and it is said that when the time comes, it will bring the jade of each family, and it seems that there is still a screening. ”
"The location of this screening is Lanruo Temple on the outskirts of Beijing?"
"Yes, you know that, Miss, you're amazing!" Xiangru was surprised.
"It's nothing," Nan Yu smiled bitterly in his heart, fortunately, this screening was exactly the same as in his previous life, otherwise he didn't know what would go wrong.
After greeting Xiangru, Nanyu sat on the Taishi chair in the study, her eyes were heavy, and all kinds of things from her previous life came to her.
Qin Tianjian, as the name suggests, is the official position in charge of observing the celestial phenomena, in addition to this, in the Sheng Dynasty, it was also responsible for inviting the gods and chanting sutras.
The birth date of the students in the Qin Heavenly Prison must meet the requirements of the five elements and only one is missing, and if two or more are missing, the eight characters are too light, and the first thing is not to meet the innate conditions of inviting the gods and transcendence, and if the eight characters are too heavy, they will be considered to be disliked by the ghosts and gods.
In the Sheng Dynasty, the severity of the eight characters was an important criterion for measuring innate courage, and only the children of the official eunuchs who lacked one of the eight characters could enter the school and have the potential to grow into a qualified Lingtai Lang.
The Lanruo Temple on the outskirts of Beijing is only remote, and there is no terror in it, and during the screening period, the Qintian Supervision Committee sent people to protect the whole process to ensure the safety of every student.
This screening process will not be difficult, but let the students live here for three days, incense incense to the various Niangniang enshrined in the Lanruo Temple every day, insist on reading in the morning at the beginning of the day, cooking by themselves and reading the sutras in the evening, except for cooking on the fire, the rest are the daily homework when studying in the Qintian Prison in the future.
In his previous life, he and his father had a big fight, and finally they were able to enter the Qintianjian Prison, with the idea of breaking out of the world here, accompanied by Xiangru, they came to Lanruo Temple.
Maids and maids are not allowed to enter to accompany her, Nanyu recalled that in her previous life, when she was at the gate of the temple, she saw that the other young lady's company were accompanied by her father and mother's parents, and she reluctantly told her when she parted, and she had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
I lived alone in the meditation room of Lanruo Temple for three days, and I was mentally beaten, and finally the screening was over, and I was successfully admitted to Qintianjian.
After entering the school, Nan Yu found out that the rest of the students had gotten to know each other during the screening period, and some of them had even become close.
And I closed my heart in three days and missed the best time to make friends.
"It's not that I don't think it's necessary to have friends in Qin Tianjian," Nan Yu sat on the chair, crossed his hands, and nodded lightly with his fingertips, "It's just that I didn't have any friends before, and my life was indeed a bit boring." ”
And in his previous life, since he entered the Qin Tianjian School, he and his family have never met again, and when they met again, it was because they were going to be exiled to Qingzhou.
"Alas......"
Nanyu raised her head and looked at the roof, feeling a little stunned.
I will never forget the time when I was dragged away by the guards in the academy of Qin Tianjian.
What was I doing? Oh yes, it's astronomy.
The moment it was dragged away, time seemed to freeze.
Li Yuan, who was teaching, looked at himself, his eyes were full of shock and reluctance, and the eyes of other students were shocked, ridiculed, and sympathetic, who was sympathizing with me? Nan Yu wanted to see the man's face clearly in his memory, but he couldn't clear the fog in front of him, he only remembered that those eyes were beautiful, and his eyes were full of sadness.
For a while, countless scorching eyes stared at him, as if he could burn himself.
At that moment, the only feeling was the shamelessness of the land.
"But what did I do wrong? What did my dad do wrong? Nanyu smiled bitterly.
If you want to hate, I've seen too many people in exile along the way, who can I hate? If everyone hates, it's too tiring.
I only hate the eunuchs, the eunuchs brutalized the loyal and good, coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and built a literary prison. Countless loyal ministers and good generals were exiled or beheaded by their black men.
If the eunuch party is not eliminated for a day, the Sheng Dynasty will not have a day of peace, and a trace of ruthlessness will pass through Nanyu's eyes.
The top priority at the moment is how to enroll in Qin Tianjian, Nan Yu thought, and gently dipped her fingers in some tea and wrote and drew on the table.
Her gaze was heavy, her slender backboard was straight, and the sunlight was shining directly through the window, illuminating the desk in front of her, but everything behind her was still in shadow.
It's night.
Nan Yuanshan supported the carriage and walked down with the support of the servants, and returned home after a day's official duties, and he was a little out of breath due to the exhaustion and heavy work.
"Soon the Spring Festival will pass, and I just hope to finish the debriefing as soon as possible and rush back to Yongzhou," he thought.
Many towns in Yongzhou are near the river, and the flood season begins in April every year, and if the disaster relief cannot be provided in time, the situation will accelerate and deteriorate, and the distance between the capital and Yongzhou is long, and it takes more than a month to go back, not to mention day and night.
Nan Yuanshan passed by Nanyu's bedroom from the corridor and saw that the lamp was still lit inside, and he expected that Nanyu should still be studying hard, and he smiled with relief.
After entering the house, Xue Wan saw Nan Yuanshan returning, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him untie his cloak, and welcomed him to the table to drink a cup of hot tea.
Looking at Nan Yuanshan's tired and haggard face, her heart felt distressed, but Nan Yuanshan waved her hand, signaling that she didn't need to ask more.
The cold wind is howling outside the window, and in the winter of the capital, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, and the fire in the Nanyuan mountain house is burning very strongly, and the firewood in the stove is crackling.
"Today, the Marquis of Dingyuan participated, and the Turks have been active frequently in the northern border, and they have repeatedly harassed the border cities of our DPRK," Nanyuan Shan said slowly, "It is estimated that the form will be more severe in the future." ”
"This Turkic people have always robbed grain and cotton clothes in winter, and there has been no major action other than that, is there a new situation now?" Xue Wan asked.
Her mother's family is in the capital of Shuozhou, Hanchi, which borders the northern grasslands, and Hanchi is in the south of Shuozhou.
"There was a head-to-head confrontation between the border army and the Turkic army at Jinshui City, and the Turks are no longer what they used to be," Nan Yuanshan said. ”
"I heard that Uncle Dingyuan is brave and strategic, and he will definitely be able to fight against the Turks," Xue Wan comforted.
But Nan Yuanshan shook his head and said, "Right now, no matter how brave and good Ji Feiyun is in Dingyuan, I'm afraid it won't be enough to fight against the Turks." ”
"Xianggong, why is that?" Xue Wan hurriedly asked.
Once the border is lost, her mother's family will also struggle to protect themselves.
Nan Yuanshan frowned, pointed his finger upward, signaling that Xue Wan was going to attack Ding Yuanbo when the Son of Heaven was going to attack Ding Yuanbo, and then did not say anything more.
Xue Wan's face changed suddenly when he saw this, Ding Yuanbo has always been regarded by the people as the "god of war" who has no defeat in Qingzhou and Shuozhou, and with him, he will definitely be able to protect the safety of the two places.
At present, the current saint wants to attack the Marquis of Dingyuan, or reduce the power of the army, or reduce the supply of military food, if the Marquis of Dingyuan is defeated by the Turks, then these two places will be like meat like a tiger's mouth, at the mercy of others.
Nanyuan Mountain took Xue Wan into his arms, and the capital was about to come in a storm.
The other side.
Nan Yu carried the news that Qin Tianjian was going to recruit students, and lay in bed and couldn't sleep all night.
"As a daughter, I can become a female official after studying in Qintianjian and gain fame, why does my father just disagree?" Nanyu thought sullenly.
"Why do you want me to learn "Female Virtue", saying that you want to marry a good family and be a good lady?"
If there are really so many wishful husbands in this world, why do women need to learn these rules and regulations to restrain their temperament and learn to tolerate.
Isn't it impossible to love someone and accept her in their entirety? If this is the case, why don't men need to learn what "male virtues" and "male commandments" teach them how to treat their wives well?
Nanyu lay on the bed and tossed and turned, thinking about the reason why her father did not agree to her enrollment, and on the other hand, thinking about how rotten and stupid "Nude" was.
"But what if I'm married to Chu Jihan?" The thought suddenly drifted into her mind.
She couldn't help but recall Chu Jihan's handsome face with a smile on his eyebrows and eyes, and his chic and heroic posture in the courtyard to practice martial arts, Nanyu's cheeks suddenly turned red.
She immediately got up and poured herself a cup of herbal tea, drank it all, and forced herself to calm down.
She was dressed in a thin lewd garment, and her cloak was loosely draped, and the chill of the night penetrated through the cracks in the window, eroding the warmth of her body in the slightest.
It wasn't until the chill enveloped her again that she gathered her cloak.
"Even Chu Jihan can't make me stop."
Nan Yu made up her mind, her eyes were full of firmness and persistence, and she had made up her mind.
The flavor of the New Year in the capital is getting stronger and stronger, and every household is beginning to put up lights.
Since figuring it out, Nanyu no longer avoids Chu Jihan, and the two see each other almost every day.
"If you are destined to separate, let this time be the last memory," Nanyu made up her mind in her heart.
Chu Jihan was more and more pleased because Nan Yu no longer avoided him, and he changed his tricks almost every day to bring Nan Yu special food on the street, and if Nan Yu came out late, he could wait as long as he wanted.
Even Ji Boyu couldn't help but say that Nanyu was the person he remembered the most in Chu Jihan's heart.
When she first heard this, Nanyu's heart was very sweet, Chu Jihan was the most handsome and least talented man she had ever seen in her nineteen years of life.
Nan Yu asked herself, if it weren't for the mission in this life, maybe the fate of the two of them would be completely different.
Pity.....
"What are you thinking?" Chu Jihan looked at Nan Yu's slightly distracted side face and asked, he leaned over and sat next to Nan Yu.
"I'm thinking that this year is my first year in the capital," Nan Yu replied with a smile, what she was thinking about was not this, but this reply could temporarily prevaricate Chu Jihan.
"What's this, if you like it, you can live in the capital for many years in the future," Chu Jihan said dotingly.
He likes Nanyu more and more, and he also fell in love with Nanyu at first sight, in his Chu Jihan's life, there has never been anything that he can't get, even if it is the throne, he dares to take it.
He is not lacking in the love of the daughters of the nobles of the gate, and his superior appearance has attracted him attention since he was a child, but what can he do? Do they like me, and I want to like them? Chu Jihan disagreed.
Since he likes Nanyu, that is the only love in the world, and it is a love that no one can exchange.
Sometimes, Chu Jihan would also think that if Nanyu was not born in the Nan family of civil officials, he would not need the power of her family in the future, maybe it would be better.
But family history is like fate, and it is not up to anyone.
