This literary school has a history of more than 190 years, and the four big characters of "Wen Yi Carry the Dao" on the pillar stone in front of the door are still inscribed by the ancestor emperor himself.

Over the past 190 years, this century-old school has continuously delivered countless pillars of the country to the court of Dajing, and has also cultivated many brilliant literati giants for the Kyushu literary circle.

This is the holy place in the hearts of the world's scholars, the ideal place of literati and artists, and the spine and blood bank of the Dajing Dynasty.

Ye Qianhuai, who grew up in the deep palace, had never seen the literary school with his own eyes, but he could often hear its name. In her mind, the literary school should be a peach and plum spring breeze with a hundred schools of thought contending, and the campus should be full of Confucian exchanges and students arguing.

Instead of the empty bleak situation in front of you.

In front of the door, there were several heavy soldiers in armor and guns, scanning the crowd with sharp expressions, which enveloped the entire campus in a tense atmosphere.

Ye Tianhuai looked at the leaders of several guards, he was wearing a bright light armor, his feet were black leather boots, and his right hand was holding the wide sword hanging from his waist.

It is the costume of Gyeonggi Guard.

Gyeonggi Wei is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and it is the armed force with the strongest combat capability in Shengjing, and generally it will not be dispatched unless it is a major case such as riots, rogues, and firearms.

Ye Tianhuai couldn't help frowning: What is the big case of the literary school, which actually touched Gyeonggi Wei.

She never heard anything happened to the literary school every day, and there were no clues in the folds of the report. But after a little thought, she felt that the matter was related to Wang Lisong's case. After all, even the triage of the three divisions can become a big drama of pointing the deer as a horse, and the mobilization of Gyeonggi Wei is simply a trivial matter in comparison.

Ye Tianhuai tidied up his luggage, walked to the front of the literary school, and looked inside the door.

"What for?" Sure enough, it attracted a stern questioning from Gyeonggi Wei.

Ye Tianhuai saluted and said, "I am a gentleman who entered Beijing to take the exam, dare to ask the military master, what is wrong with the literary school?" ”

The captain heard the sound and walked towards Ye Qianhuai, he looked Ye Qianhuai up and down, motioned for the questioning Jinggi Wei to step back, he walked to Ye Qianhuai's side, looked at Ye Qianhuai again, and asked, "Where did this son come from?" Who is the school looking for? Do you have a ticket? ”

Ye Qianhuai took out a palm-sized wooden plaque from her arms, with her name engraved on it and a seal on it, she handed it to the captain of the Gyeonggi Guard, and replied respectfully: "The ticket is here." Under the surname He Mingwei, born in Beijing, this time to enter Beijing is to rush for the spring exam. My father used to study under the sacrificial wine gate of the literary school, and asked me to meet the sacrificial wine lord first when I came to Beijing this time. ”

She pretended to be a cousin of her mother's family, and the coupons were also genuine printed by the government, even if the household department came, she couldn't find the problem.

Sure enough, the captain weighed the coupon in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, and said, "He Youwei? ”

Ye Tianhuai nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"When you entered Beijing, didn't you look at the notice on the city gate? The school has committed a crime and has been dismissed from his post and questioned. If you want to see him, I'm afraid you won't see him. ”

Ye Tianhuai was shocked, although Wang Lisong has been detained by the Criminal Department, but the edict of conviction is still in her palace, as long as this edict is not stamped with her seal, Wang Lisong's sentence has not been decided, and he is still the sacrificial wine of the literary school.

But listening to Gyeonggi Wei's tone, it seems that he has received the order that Wang Lisong was dismissed.

A wave of anger rose in Ye Tianhuai's heart.

It seems that not only she, the emperor, is in vain, but even the heirloom jade seal in her hand has become ineffective.

These people, who speak of loyalty and filial piety, have never had her as a monarch in their eyes?

The captain approached her, looked at her again, and said, "Little brother, I see that you are also a young master from a wealthy family, it is not easy to go to Beijing to take the exam so far, and it is not good for you to go back empty-handed like this." I can tell the priest that you have been here, and you will be able to do your filial piety for your father. ”

Ye Tianhuai didn't know what he meant by suddenly saying this, and couldn't help but look at him with some puzzlement.

But seeing that the captain had a greasy smile on his face, he approached Ye Tianhuai a little closer, and lowered his voice and said: "It's just that this Jingzhong is not as good as Jingzuo, everything needs to be dotted." ”

After speaking, he gestured a silver ticket to Ye Tianhuai.

Only then did Ye Qianhuai understand what he meant.

For a while, many images seemed to flash in front of her eyes, including nobles in brocade clothes, scrawny beggars, and courtiers who bowed their heads and were silent on the trial of the three divisions.

She only felt a rush of blood rushing to the top of her head, took two steps back, distanced herself from the captain, and scolded: "This is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, in front of the sage's door, you dare to ask for bribes in public without the king's law, so corrupt the character, who taught you to do this?" ”

Ye Qianhuai spoke loudly, causing Gyeonggi Wei and the surrounding passers-by to look at her.

She had never been so angry. But she didn't know why she was angry.

She was angry at Gyeonggi Wei's greedy face, and at the same time, she seemed to be angry at the courtiers' submissiveness, and even more angry at Gu Shihai for betraying her and the trust of the first emperor, but most of all, she was angry at her own ignorance and powerlessness.

She wanted to ask, why is this happening? Who taught them this?

Several Gyeonggi guards and their captains were shocked by her momentum for a while, but the next moment, the captain immediately reacted, his face turned cold, and said: "Lao Tzu saw that you were pitiful, so he showed you a clear way, since you don't know whether to live or die, don't blame Lao Tzu for not being emotional." Come on, take down this Diao Min! ”

The captain of the Gyeonggi guard was full of anger when he spoke, and suddenly regained his aura in front of Ye Qianhuai, and as soon as he waved his hand, the two Gyeonggi guards immediately stepped forward and clasped Ye Tianhuai's two arms behind her back, pressing her whole person and lowering her head.

Ye Tianhuai has lived for more than ten years, and has never been treated so roughly, and she can't help but be angry, but she is thin and weak, and she is escorted by two big men, and she can't resist at all.

Seeing that the two of them were about to drag her away, Ye Tianhuai was anxious, could it be that he was about to become the first emperor in the history of Dajing to be imprisoned?

She held her feet under the drag of Gyeonggi Wei and said, "Do you know who I am?" Bring your master to me. ”

The captain of the Gyeonggi Guard was not afraid, but smiled: "Even if you are the king of heaven, I have the final say here." Take it down! ”

Ye Tianhuai never expected that the Jinggi Guards would be so rampant, but looking at their behavior, they were obviously used to being powerful in Shengjing City, even if they caused trouble, they were not afraid, and someone above would take care of them.

She was thinking about what to do, when her shoulders suddenly lightened, and the strength that was twisting her was suddenly removed, replaced by an arm that was casually on her shoulder.

Ye Qianhuai raised his head, only to see a man who was taller than himself lifting his weight and pushing away the two Gyeonggi guards, standing beside her, and putting one hand on her shoulder.

That action, like a brother.

The man is tall, with a face with sharp edges and good facial features. In the cold wind of the winter moon, he only wore a simple cloth robe, and the muscles with dormant muscles were faintly visible under the robe.

It's a practitioner. And to be able to get rid of Gyeonggi Wei so easily, it should be a good hand.

In the shocked or angry eyes of everyone, he suddenly smiled at the captain of the Gyeonggi Guard, and said, "Don't worry about this military master, he is my cousin." This kid has just arrived, he has taken a fork in the road, and he has collided with the military master, we adults have a lot, don't be like him. ”

As if in order to confirm the kinship between him and Ye Qianhuai, he also patted Ye Tianhuai's shoulder very kindly.

The corners of Ye Tianhuai's eyes twitched, and she felt that her shoulder was dislocated.

"Don't you only have one sister, when did you have a cousin?" The captain was obviously familiar with him, but he frowned and asked.

"I just came to the capital, I came to the capital." As the man spoke, he leaned over to the captain's side, took out a few pieces of silver from his arms and stuffed them into his collar, and said with a smile on his face, "Let Team Liang and the brothers bother, it's a little interesting, count me on inviting the brothers to drink." ”

The captain took the pieces of silver out of his bosom and counted them, as if they felt a little little, but when he looked up, he met the man's smiling face. Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, he glanced at Ye Tianhuai again, and his face was full of "You're cheap today", and then turned around and said to the man: "Even if it's on your face today, go back and teach him the rules." ”

After speaking, he threw back Ye Tianhuai's voucher to the man, and turned around and left with his subordinates.

The crowd of onlookers quickly dispersed, and only Ye Tianhuai and the tall man were left in front of the door.

Ye Qian looked at the man vigilantly and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"I'm your brother, why don't you turn your face and don't recognize people?" After he finished speaking, he put his hand on Ye Tianhuai's shoulder again, lowered his voice and said, "This is not the place to speak, aren't you looking for sacrificial wine?" Follow me. ”
