Chapter 163: Soft on the outside and rigid on the inside

Xu Ying is one of the few people in the world who knows Zhu Quan's secret identity, and when he heard him call the ruthless Emperor Hongwu an "old man", he couldn't help but laugh a little, stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhu Quan's sleeve and said hatefully: "Even if what you say has two points of truth, don't say I'm wrong." ”

"Senior sister is chivalrous, naturally she can't be wrong." Zhu Quan said with a smile

Xu Ying naturally understood in her heart that he was not right, and couldn't help but snort softly, as if she was really happy, and her heart was very comfortable, it was from the last time she quarreled with Zhu Quan, and after the quarrel broke up, she asked her father and master about it, and her father was silent, even Qin Zhuofeng, who had always loved him, was quite partial to Zhu Quan in his words, and the most annoying thing was his younger brother Xu Huizu, who frowned and said that he didn't know the importance and interfered in the affairs of the court. It was because she was also depressed in her heart for the past two days, and today Zhu Quan saw that she was willing to let herself at least on the surface, and she was naturally very happy in her heart.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the early morning of the second day, in the small courtyard of Xu Dafu, the Duke of Wei, the sword aura is vertical and horizontal, the white light is dazzling, and Xu Ying, who is wearing a light green shirt, is practicing swords.

A blue-shirted young scholar who looked seven or eight points similar to Xu Ying, with two books under his arm, slowly came to a short distance, stopped to watch, and secretly smiled bitterly in his heart: I don't know why my sister likes to practice martial arts so much. It was Xu Huizu who studied with Zhu Quan.

After Xu Ying finished practicing a set of swordsmanship, she stood calmly, turned her head to look at her younger brother, and asked, "Are you going to Guozijian to take classes again?" ”

Xu Huizu bowed slightly when he heard this.

"Look at your face, it seems that something is unhappy?" Xu Ying looked at Xu Huizu while cursing her eyebrows.

Xu Huizu sighed softly, his face showed two points of displeasure, and said in a deep voice: "Yesterday, I heard from my father that Lord Wu Hao, the lord of the country's priest wine, was dismissed from his official position because of his lax admonition, and he will go to Shandong in the near future. After a pause, he slowly continued: "The teacher who came to teach today is named Li Xiyan, and I have never met him." ”

Xu Ying couldn't help but be curious, and smiled: "Why is this?" ”

"It's not all to blame His Royal Highness King Ning, who behaved frivolously, and even caused Mr. Wu to be demoted and exiled." Xu Ying has been practicing martial arts with her master Qin Zhuofeng since she was a child, far from being comparable to the weak female stream in the boudoir, Xu Huizu also has no idea about the relationship between her sister and King Ning, recalling the hateful Zhu Quan, she couldn't help but complain casually, while talking, she slowly walked towards the door.

Xu Ying heard her brother's words, and she was even more confused, and she didn't know why, so she secretly thought to herself: Although that kid is sometimes restless, but the people who study with Huizu in the Guozi Prison are all the sons of the generals of the court, no matter how presumptuous he is, he can't say that he behaves frivolously, right? The big eyes rolled twice, and he quickly came to Xu Huizu's side, and said softly: "It's quite tiring to study, why don't I go on your behalf today, as a sister, so that I can see what our Ming Dynasty's Guozi prison looks like." With that, he reached out to get the book Xu Huizu was holding under his armpit. Rao is smart and clever, and it is difficult to guess that she is studying with her younger brother, and there is a girl who dresses as a man like herself, Feng Xuan, the righteous daughter of Feng Sheng, the Duke of Song.

"How does this work?" Xu Huizu shook his head firmly and refused: "Today is the new Lord of Sacrificial Wine to teach me, how can I impersonate?" ”

Xu Ying's small temperament flares up, and she suddenly stretched out her hand, and she was already snatching her brother's books coldly, very proud. It turned out that Xu Ying had been practicing martial arts with his master for a long time, but Xu Huizu, as a man, did not like to practice martial arts, but was only a weak scholar. Even if you are on full alert, you can't prevent it. Knowing that even if he took it by force, it would be very difficult to get it, so he had to smile wryly and ask Xu Ying to return the books quickly, so as not to delay the important event of going to Guozijian to attend classes.

Xu Ying's eyes rolled twice, and she suddenly smiled: "Why not?" If you're sick today, I'll go to class. Speaking of this, he didn't care what his younger brother thought with a puzzled face, stretched out his hand and pointed at his acupoint, so that his whole body was numb and soft, and he couldn't move at all, and helped Xu Huizu back to his own bedroom bed with a smile, and said with a smile like a silver bell: "Daddy went to the court early in the morning, and you don't have to yell and alarm the neighbors." .com should sleep a little longer, and the acupuncture will be self-extricating in two hours. After that, he gently closed the door, ran back to his boudoir, changed his clothes, dressed up as a graceful young scholar in a blue shirt, took his brother's books, walked out of the house quickly, and walked towards the Guozi Prison, secretly thinking to himself: Anyway, the new Guozi Priest doesn't know Huizu, and it will be okay for me, the elder sister, to impersonate him.

Xu Ying greeted the rising sun, her heart was very happy, thinking back to what Zhu Quan said to herself, he had been ordered by Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, and he was also going to take classes with his younger brother Xu Huizu, Cao Guogong Li Jinglong, etc., and secretly made up his mind in his heart, and he wanted to bluff him by surprise for a while.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Yingtian Guozijian was in the north and the southern foot of Jilong Mountain, west to the Xianghe River, south to the Pearl Bridge, and east to the small camp, covering a vast area, which was well known to the women and children in the city. There were not many pedestrians on the street in the early morning, and Xu Ying walked all the way and came to Chengxian Street.

Because of the Korean Gong Li Shanchang, the sincerity of Bo Liu Bowen and countless other scholars, they played a great role in the Red Turban Army's ability to expel the Tartars and restore China, so Zhu Yuanzhang, the eldest man, has long realized the importance of education in governing the country. In September of the first year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang clearly stated in the edict issued to seek talents; "I am only the breadth of the world, and it is not something that one person can govern, but it must be achieved by the sages of the world. The "sage" mentioned here does not only refer to individual figures among officials, but also refers to the meritocracy of the group of officials. In this Ming Dynasty, which paid attention to scholars, farmers, industrialists, and merchants, everyone naturally believed that only by studying could they have the opportunity to become a "sage".

When Xu Ying and her younger brother Xu Huizu used to play here, she had heard him talk about the place where he was in class, and it didn't take much effort to come to the courtyard specially set up for the handsome children of the generals of the court, she and Xu Huizu are brothers and sisters, and they look very similar, plus today's deliberate dress, no one doubted it, so they smoothly entered the wide and quiet courtyard, and looked up to see the thin back of a young scholar in white not far ahead, so he slowly came behind him, I secretly thought to myself: This person may be a classmate of Huizu, and it is inconvenient to ask each other, so I only follow him, and I will naturally be able to go to the place where the class is.

The young scholar in white heard the sound of footsteps behind him, turned his head to look, and under the four eyes, both of them couldn't help but be stunned, it turned out that the young man in white was Feng Sheng's beloved daughter Feng Xuan, and Xu Ying had a relationship on the bank of the Qinhuai River.

Both of them are clever girls, Feng Xuan was stunned for a moment and already saw that this blue-shirted young man was the unruly senior sister of His Royal Highness King Ning who deliberately destroyed his plum blossom paper umbrella by his side when he met Zhu Quan in the past. At this time, I was very surprised when I unexpectedly met here, frowned slightly, was silent, and secretly thought to myself: Seeing that she looks very similar to that Xu Huizu, no wonder His Royal Highness King Ning also called her senior sister, and it turned out to be the daughter of Marshal Xu Da, Duke of Wei.

The last time she met Zhu Quan on the bank of the Qinhuai River, it happened that the current commander of the Jinyi Guard made Jiang Xian suspect Zhu Quan's identity, and made a tentative move, Xu Ying casually picked up Feng Xuan's plum blossom paper umbrella to block the sudden hidden weapon and destroyed the paper umbrella.

Xu Ying was secretly amused in her heart, and said: I did destroy other people's things last time, but it's no wonder she was angry. Willing to accompany him, he slowly came to Feng Xuan's side and asked softly: "Brother Feng, did you have a lot of junior brothers last time, and I hope that Brother Feng Haihan is." "The last time Feng Sheng led Zhu Quan, King of Ning, and Zhu Di, King of Yan, was about to leave the city to go to Liaodong, Feng Xuan came to see off his father, because Xu Ying already knew that this woman with outstanding appearance and good music was the beloved daughter of Feng Sheng, the Duke of Song.

Feng Xuan is not a narrow-minded person, and when she heard this, she was relieved, bowed slightly, avoided Xu Ying's gaze, and said in a low voice: "There is no need to worry about some small things." With that, he walked over to his seat and sat down. It turned out that she had no martial arts, and she didn't dare to look directly at the eyes of a person like Xu Ying, who had a lot of internal strength and strong martial arts.

Qin Zhuofeng has peerless martial arts, but he loves this apprentice very much, and he has long regarded him as his beloved daughter in his heart, and he is very short-sighted, Xu Ying relies on the momentum of his master, and often regulates Zhu Quan to cry and laugh, at this time, seeing that this Feng Xuan said politely in his mouth, but his expression was rejecting people thousands of miles away, he was slightly annoyed in his heart, and secretly thought: Wow, this little girl has no martial arts, and her personality is so strong, if you ignore me, I just want to sit beside you, and see what you can do to me? Thinking of this, Shi Shiran slowly came to the seat beside Feng Xuan and sat down, looked at Feng Xuan with a pair of big eyes that seemed to be smiling, and secretly thought to himself: You and I are both women, and it is not rude for me to look at you like this.

At this moment, three figures shook at the door, and they walked into the lobby, it was Zhu Di, King of Yan, Zhu Quan, King of Ning, and Li Jinglong, Duke of Cao.

Zhu Quan got up late today, but he rode the "dark clouds and snow" to gallop, walked into the lobby and yawned, while secretly cursing in his heart: In the ice and snow in Liaodong, go to fight and fight for your life, after returning to this Yingtian, Lanyu and they have their own rewards, but I can't get any benefits, and I have to be forced to endure the inhumane imperial examination education early in the morning, which is simply inhumane. When I looked up and saw a blue-shirted scholar sitting on his seat, I couldn't help but be stunned, and my heart was already depressed.

Since Xu Ying lost to him in the last competition, she hasn't dressed up as a personable young scholar for a long time, and her figure is similar to that of her brother Xu Huizu, Zhu Quan thought for a while that Xu Huizu came early, just to regain his throne.
