Chapter 68: The Fall

After the incident, due to the forces in Master Jia's capital, Xia Mingzhong had to hide for a period of time.

That day, he was in a hurry to let Xia Mingzhong escape, so that Jiang Xian and Xia Mingzhong didn't care about saying anything, so they separated. During that time, Shen Hui also went back home, and only Jiang Xian was left in Moyun Academy to go to class and rest, and so on.

After several months, Jiang Xian didn't see Shen Hui again, maybe she was too frightened by the gangsters before, she was scared when she arrived at the academy, and she refused to come from then on.

Compared with Shen Hui, Jiang Xian was more worried about Xia Mingzhong, he didn't know where Xia Mingzhong was hiding, there was a danger outside, I heard that Master Jia did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to invite many masters, and was arresting Xia Mingzhong everywhere, and vowed to pay for his life.

Although Jiang Xian lived a peaceful and stable life on the surface, he was actually tormented day by day in his heart, and his best friend had never slept well again.

It's almost time to take the imperial examination, which is the most important event for Jiang Xian to start, and he is studying in Moyun Academy in order to gain fame and fulfill his wish.

Xia Mingzhong has not heard from him yet.

On this day, Jiang Xian walked alone on the street to buy paper and pencils, and before he walked to the shop selling paper, he felt that something hit him the back of his head, and his eyes were dark, and he was unconscious.

When he woke up, he was already in an unknown mountain forest, the deep mountains were foggy, Jiang Xian couldn't see the way out, let alone find a way out. He didn't know who got him here, or what he was going to do here?

Just as he was puzzled, a few masked people suddenly came out of nowhere, came up and surrounded Jiang Xian, and asked, "Where is Xia Mingzhong?!" ”

Jiang Xian shook his head and replied truthfully: "I don't know, I also want to know where he is?" ”

One of the masked men said: "I've been looking for so long and I haven't fucking found it, so I just use this kid to top." ”

Another masked man said: "How to top? The two of them are far from each other in terms of size and kung fu. What's more, Xia Mingzhong is a top master, this kid is a reader, he looks weak, and Master Jia is not a fool, can't he see it if he is indiscriminate? ”

The masked man said again: "It's all caught, so what do you say?" In my opinion, Xia Mingzhong is a murderer, and this kid will definitely not be able to escape it! ”

A masked man who stood behind Jiang Xian who had not spoken all this time said: "Okay, let's hurry up and continue to look for Xia Mingzhong, this kid will be thrown here and let him fend for himself." ”

Several of them reached an agreement, and the person who spoke first stepped forward and stomped his feet hard at Jiang Xian's chest, and Jiang Xian was so painful that he couldn't speak. They carried Jiang Xian to a nearby cold spring, and several people easily threw Jiang Xian into the spring.

"If I can float you out, you're lucky."

This was the last sentence Jiang Xian heard before he fainted.

He couldn't do anything about it, and watched as he was thrown into the fast-flowing cold spring like garbage, and he floated along the spring like a withered leaf, until a farmer entered the mountain and found him unconscious.

Perhaps, as the masked man said, this was his luck.

The kind-hearted farmer gave Jiang Xian a clean set of clothes for him to change into, and after asking the time, he knew that there was still one day before the exam, in order not to delay the exam, Jiang Xian woke up and just tidied himself up a little, and hurriedly prepared to return to the academy.

On the way back, the streets of Jingzhong were bustling, the sound of gongs and drums and firecrackers was endless, Jiang Xian was almost squeezed by the crowd on the street, out of curiosity, Jiang Xian casually pulled someone and asked: "What happened?" Why are there so many people on the street today? ”

Pedestrian A on the road said, "You don't know this? It's not that Lord Shen in the capital is going to marry his daughter today. ”

Pedestrian B looked at the excitement and interjected: "Miss Shen was born beautiful, but I heard that her legs are not very dexterous, and I don't know who married her, and I haven't heard of this family business before." ”

Beijing, Miss Shen, her legs are not flexible.

Isn't that Shen Hui?

Jiang Xian was shocked, from the day he made friends with Shen Hui, he had made up his mind to treat her as an ordinary person. Shen Hui does suffer from a leg disease, which was a disease that fell when she was a child. (More exciting on the next page!) )

Root. Jiang Xian has always thought that maybe God sees Shen Hui too perfectly, so he wants to plant such an imperfect place on her.

The front is faintly bright red, bright and eye-catching. The crowd on the street seemed to be infected by this endless red, and it was even more crowded, and Jiang Xian couldn't help but be pushed forward by the people on the street, walking passively.

"Look! The bridegroom received the bride. ”

The groom riding on the tall horse, looking at it from a distance, is a perfect match for the good horse under the crotch, dressed in red and full of joy, as the kissing team gets closer and closer, Jiang Xian finally saw the face of the groom.

Jiang Xian once thought that Shen Hui might marry someone else, her family background is so good, even if there is a little flaw in her legs, but the flaws are not hidden, with her father Shen Daren's backer, she is not worried about not marrying a good family.

Some of the good feelings that are kept in my heart will eventually have to face real life.

Jiang Xian stared blankly at the welcoming team coming from afar, and his heart was full of emotion.

At this moment, the groom's official walked at the front of the greeting procession, so he was not majestic, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and the cold breath on his body could not be covered by the big red, and it was natural to descend a noisy sound around him, and he was unmoved.

"Who is this man? It shouldn't be the son of an official, nor is it from a wealthy merchant family......"

"Yes, most of the famous rich sons in Beijing have appeared and heard of them, why haven't you heard of this one? Not even a familiar face. ”

"Could it be that this groom is not from the capital at all? It's impossible to say whether it's from the north or the south. ”

Jiang Xian had all kinds of sounds in his ears, but at this moment, he couldn't stop ringing in his ears, and the pain in his ears was severe until it reached the back of his head.

He stretched out his hands in pain, kept rubbing the back of his head, opened his mouth wide but seemed to be speechless, he couldn't make a sound, Jiang Xian's tears couldn't stop flowing, and the greeting team kept sprinkling candy and paper on the people watching on the roadside, and everyone on the street was beaming.

Only he didn't move like a statue, and he didn't bend down to pick up the candy and paper on the ground, and the candy cubes were still sprinkling in the air, smashing on his chest, and the pain made him unable to breathe.

The person next to him saw that Jiang Xian was motionless, and even pushed her and said, "If you don't pick it up, get out of the way, I have to pick up some more candy and take it back to my son to eat!" ”

Jiang Xian was pushed hard, and he finally made a sound: "It's him, haha, it's him......"

Jiang Xian pointed to the direction of the welcoming procession, and smiled with tears in his eyes at the people around him who were busy picking up candy: "Have you seen it?" It's him, hahahahahaha, it's him......"

The streets were full of people, but no one paid any attention to him.

At this moment, Jiang Xian was the strangest person under this sky, he laughed strangely, and couldn't stop crying, squeezing and running wildly in the crowd in an extremely weird posture.

The sound of firecrackers on the street was deafening, and Jiang Xian covered his ears and panicked, running like crazy, as if he was desperately trying to escape from this place.

He kept running, and he didn't know when he lost a shoe, until he ran to the gate of the academy and saw the big words "Moyun Academy", and he gradually calmed down.

The schoolwork of the academy has ended, and almost all the students in the academy have gone home in the face of exams, and only a few students from other places are still in the academy. At this moment, there was silence in the academy, and Jiang Xian couldn't help but tremble, feeling as if he was back to the heart-piercing coldness when the masked men threw him into the cold spring. No \./Wrong \./More\./New '.w'.a'.p'.'.'.c'.o'.m

Jiang Xian didn't eat, he went back to his room, turned out five or six pieces of clothes and wrapped them all around his body, even so, he still couldn't control himself from trembling, he could even hear the sound of the upper and lower teeth fighting, desperately gritting his teeth to barely restrain it.

Dusk, twilight, sun, moon and stars.

The moon sets and the sun rises, and the light shines.

After the imperial examination in Beijing, the threshold of Nanqinjiang Mansion was almost broken, and there were countless people who were happy to Jiangqing.

Jiang Qing couldn't hide the smile on his face, but he still replied to the people who came in advance in a low-key manner: "The list hasn't been released yet, and when the list is released in Beijing, I will invite you to drink it all day!" ”

Modesty is Jiang Qing's norm, but he knows the strength of his younger brother Jiang Xian. (More exciting on the next page!) )

Jiang Xian is already studious on weekdays, and Mr. Mo Yun in the academy often writes to him: "Jiang Xian has read thousands of books, is diligent and studious, and will become a great tool in the future." ”

Jiang Xian is the focus of the entire Nanqin people, and it is also the hope of all people.

Jiang Qing was busy with his own affairs all day long, and he had no time to take care of his younger brothers at home, this time it was rare to meet the life events of his younger brother, so he deliberately made time to go to the shop on the street to personally select a few good materials for Jiang Xian, and prepare to make new clothes for Jiang Xian.

Jiang Qing was full of confidence that Jiang Xian would be able to win the list, and he even ordered someone to carefully clean the inside and outside of the mansion in advance, and the good wine ordered had been sent to the mansion. \./Hand\./Machine\./Edition\./None\./Error\./First\./Hair~~

On the day of the release, Jiang Qing rarely put on new clothes, and heard the housekeeper in the house say: "It's rare that there is such a big happy event in the house, and it is the first major event in the life of the second son, you just wear new clothes once, and you should welcome this joy!" ”

He happily accepted this suggestion, but he didn't wait for the good news from Beijing.

From noon to dusk, I saw a carriage parked at the gate of Jiangfu.

Two people got off the carriage, lifted Jiang Xian off the carriage with great difficulty, whispered a few words to the butler, and left.

Jiang Qing originally thought that on this day, his younger brother would definitely return to Nanqin in good spirits and proudly, receiving the envious gaze of everyone. He never thought that what he was waiting for would be his younger brother's high fever and constant babbling.

Fortunately, Jiang Qing is a person who has seen strong winds and waves, he quickly stabilized his mind, and arranged for someone to help Jiang Xian to lie down in the room, Jiang Qing sat on the edge of the bed, holding Jiang Xian's hand with one hand, and rubbing his hot neck with a handkerchief soaked in cold water with the other hand.

Jiang Xian was stimulated by this cold touch, but he was a little more sober, he opened his eyes and saw that his brother was concentrating on taking care of himself, and he couldn't help but have a sour nose and cry.

"Big brother, I'm ...... I didn't get in. ”

Jiang Qing clenched his hand and said gently: "If you fall off the list, you will fall off the list, what are you crying about?" It's a big deal, what's the big deal? It's not like our family can't afford you. ”

Jiang Qing tucked the corners of the quilt for his younger brother and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, with the eldest brother here, you just have to do what you like." ”

Jiang Xian closed his eyes lightly, shook his head, and tears slipped from the corners of his eyes. He trembled slightly and took a deep breath before he said with a sad face: "Big brother, I'm so sick, I seem to be very sick......

He was like a butterfly with folded wings, full of falling and brokenness, and muttered: "I didn't write a word, and I handed in a blank paper, how could I pass the exam......
