The next day, after lunch, Father-in-law Liu came again.

Looking at what Grandpa Liu was doing, Arlinn had a bad feeling. Gonggong Liu asked, "Is the Pavilion Master here?" ”

At this time, the festival is usually reading books, and since the establishment of the Water Shadow Pavilion, it has been very idle since that incident, and there is nothing to do. At this time, I will go to the study to have a look.

Arlinn respectfully replies to him, "The pavilion master is in the study, is there something my father-in-law looking for?" ”

Gonggong Liu said with a smile: "There is something to find her, but it is a good thing." ”

Arlinn is a little relieved to hear him say this, and then goes to call for the sacrificial dance, and asks Bai Zhou to receive Grandpa Liu.

Gonggong Liu drank the tea brought by Bai Zhou and said, "You are the son of the National Teacher's Mansion?" ”

Bai Zhou nodded.

"Hehe, don't be nervous, your matter has already spread throughout the capital by now." Gonggong Liu said with a smile.

This matter would spread throughout the capital, which Bai Zhou had never thought of. For the National Teacher's Mansion, they should cover this matter well, an unfavored son of the National Teacher's Mansion took the initiative to cut off relations with the National Teacher's Mansion, even if it is an ordinary family, it will make people laugh when they say it.

Everyone couldn't think about how Bai Bai Zhou could leave the National Teacher's Mansion, but after he left the National Teacher's Mansion, he joined the Water Shadow Pavilion, which had to attract the attention of others.

I only heard Gonggong Liu say again: "Since the pavilion master has agreed to let you in, then you have to confess that your current identity is a person from the Water Shadow Pavilion, and who is the Water Shadow Pavilion, you also have to be white." Got it? ”

Bai Zhou thought that he was here to beat him.

Liu Gonggong continued: We don't want you to just act for everyone to see. After speaking, she glanced at him.

Bai Zhou's cold sweat came out, and he still pretended to be calm on the surface: "Thank you father-in-law for mentioning it, I know." ”

"It's good to know." Gonggong Liu finally drank the tea in his hand.

As Arlinn rushes in, she looks up a little annoyed and asks, "What's wrong?" ”

Arlinn then says, "Someone from the palace said it was a good thing. ”

As soon as he heard that it was someone in the palace, he had no choice but to put down the book in his hand and follow her.

When Gonggong Liu saw someone, he quickly stood up from the stool and said with a smile: "Pavilion Master, you really made our family wait." ”

The sacrificial dance also smiled and apologized: "It's my dereliction of responsibility, and I also ask Gonggong Liu not to remember the villain." ”

When Gonggong Liu heard it, he felt terrible, why was this person's voice not as androgynous as it was when he first heard it. As soon as I heard it, I knew it was a girl's house.

At the beginning, she wore a mask because she didn't want others to know that she was a girl, but now this voice betrayed her.

Gonggong Liu looked at her carefully, although her height is tall among women, but it seems that she is a little short among men, and a little thin, which man will grow so thin. At this glance, I saw her exposed hands, very slender and slender, and a little white, and the chin under the mask was also white, very thin and small.

Grandpa Liu didn't know if he should remind her.

Looking at it, I saw the eyes of the sacrificial dance, and those eyes contained a pool of ice fountains that could not bloom.

Gonggong Liu was a little frightened, and hurriedly withdrew his gaze and said, "The Emperor of the Sacrifice Pavilion has ordered you to investigate the matter of the champion of this imperial examination. ”

That's what Arlinn says is a good thing?

Sai Wuqing shook his head and said, "We just went to see this matter, even if something happened, it has nothing to do with us." How could we ask the Water Shadow Pavilion to investigate this matter? ”

Liu Gonggong said: "This is a bad statement, because you haven't had much contact with those candidates, so it's fair for you to investigate this matter, and it will make people believe it more." ”

I wanted to say something more, but I was interrupted by Gonggong Liu: "If this matter is done, it will be a good thing for you Water Shadow Pavilion." It also boosted your prestige in everyone's hearts. ”

implicitly hinted that this matter was a deliberate decision of the emperor, and it must be next, and now people just came to inform him. The emperor is deliberately cultivating the Water Shadow Pavilion, and he also needs the Water Shadow Pavilion to grow.

It's not good to say much about the festival.

"That's all about this matter, and everyone can rest assured that it will be handed over to the Pavilion Master. If there is any need, just ask the priest to ask for it, and we will do our best to help the priest. Father-in-law Liu smiled, very pleased with the sensibility of the dance.

After sending the people away, Arlinn begins to complain, "Last time, Bai Yi didn't say anything about it, but now she said it." ”

The sacrificial dance is also the meaning of Arlinn. Indeed, with the successful completion of that thing last time, I have gained the trust of the emperor. Now I think I believe in myself.

But he was born in Yixiangyuan.

It shouldn't be a big problem, I grew up there.

"Call Xu Wu over." The sacrificial dance did not answer her words.

Then he asked Bai Zhou: "Did something happen to you that day?" ”

Bai Tian thought for a while and said, "No, we have been going well that day, even the candidates have not seen a single unruly." After saying that, he thought about it again: "However, I have a little impression of a person." ”

"Who?" The priest stared at him and asked.

"I didn't see the name. I just think I look very decent. Bai Zhou touched his nose a little embarrassed.

Looks very decent, what kind of strange description is this, it's almost the same as not saying it.

"That's Fei Jingarc when you said that." Xu Wu's gentle voice came, followed by the smell of medicine on his body that could not be dissipated.

Everyone in the room looked at him.

Xu Wu sat down generously, "I also have a little impression of that person, at that time, I looked at him when he was the poorest dressed person, but the decent air on his body was very eye-catching." Xu Wu also said Bai Zhou's strange description. I don't know if it's intentional or joking.

Arlinn gives them both a blank look.

"Huh?" The sacrificial dance is puzzled.

Xu Wu said slowly: "I see that person is very lofty, and his back is straight when he writes, and his shabby clothes can't hide his confidence. At that time, I also looked at his answers, and I personally thought that he had his own opinions and opinions, and if I judged the paper, I would definitely give him a high score. ”

Xu Wu has been here for so long, and it's the first time I've seen him talk about a person like this. It's just that fortunately, he is not the one who judges the papers, and in his opinion, the person who gets a high score must be a person who is of little use to the imperial court.

Looking at the eyes of the sacrificial dance, Xu Wu knew that the sacrificial dance was not believing in his own eyes to see people, and he smiled and didn't care.

It's normal for everyone to have their own opinion on the same thing. This is also what makes him feel happy in the Water Shadow Pavilion during this time. It is rare to see someone who has such views and opinions that are sometimes the same and sometimes distant.

This trip was not in vain.

Of course, ignore the fact that the two of them quarreled in a gentle tone during this time.

People who didn't know thought they were chatting, but as soon as they got closer, they knew that the two were arguing.

Maybe the parties don't think it's an argument. It's just that every time he talks and talks, the people on the side feel that the two may not be able to get along in the next second, and they are about to start questioning each other loudly. It's just that nothing like this has ever happened.

It's a bit boring.

That's Arlinn's opinion.

This is not the case in the eyes of the other people in the Water Shadow Pavilion, they see that the sacrificial dance has changed from cold and ruthless at the beginning to the current smile, and they feel even more terrifying, they actually still hope that the sacrificial dance is the original cold appearance, such a master is always unthinkable and unpredictable.

Sai Wu thought for a while and asked, "Who is the champion of the imperial examination this time?" ”

Arlinn hurriedly says, "It's Fei Jingarc." ”

"Look, I'm talking about him." Xu Wu was still a little complacent. But then I thought of another candidate for the champion.

It's a bit of a pity.

Sai Wuqing teased: "Yes, it's just that now some people think that they are the champions who can be examined, and the emperor is also suspicious." ”

Arlinn asks, "Wasn't the emperor himself elected the champion?" ”

"Yes, it is. It's just that those answers to the emperor's hands will go through a few processes, so the chance of being changed is still very large. Xu Wu explained.

The sacrificial dance is a little unshaded: "Since it is a palace test, how can they do it?" Aren't you afraid of being discovered? ”

Xu Wu looked at the sacrificial dance and said silently: "If it was in the past, there might not be such a thing, but this year's imperial examination is different from the past, so there are many places where you can do it." If you want to, you can do it without realizing it. But it's all said that it's possible. Therefore, you are also white, and who knows what happened during this period, right? ”

Everyone nodded gloomily.

At the same time, it also made everyone a little confused about Xu Wu's origin.

Faced with the question of the sacrificial dance, Xu Wu said lightly: "I just want the people of the Medicine God Valley to treat me, this is just an abnormal transaction." ”

Yes, he came here for a purpose, and the purpose was the Valley of the God of Medicine. Everyone said so, and it was not good to say anything more about the sacrificial dance, so they kept their voices.

"So what should be done about this?" Arlinn looks at the rescuers as if they were at the sacrificial dance. Habitually, they discarded their ideas.

Matsumi thought about it.

After a moment, he asked Xu Wu: "What kind of opinion do you have?" ”

Xu Wu said: "It's all up to the pavilion master's arrangement." ”

Sai Wuqing nodded, "Then go and see that Fei Jing arc first." After saying that, he turned to look at Arlinn and said, "Do you remember that the person at the city gate yesterday said that he was the top student in the imperial examination?" ”

Arlinn recalls yesterday's events and says, "Yes. ”

"Well, then you go investigate." The sacrificial dance then asked Xu Wu to look up the list of invigilators that day to see if he could find some information.

When the crowd heard the order, they began to act.

Sai Wuqing and Bai Zhou went to the place where the new champion lived temporarily and met this decent person.

This person is indeed better than seeing it, but maybe it is because he has been in the capital for more than half a month, and it is normal to have a little change.

Fei Jingarc was wearing clothes made of silk, his hair was tied up high, and he was also very energetic, but he just didn't have the decent image that Bai Zhou said, but he felt a little the opposite.

Bai Zhou and Sai Wuqing glanced at each other, and the latter nodded.

Seeing this, Bai Zhou asked directly: "Fei Zhuangyuan, you should know why we are here." ”

Listening to Bai Zhou's words, he frowned, where did he learn this?

Bai Zhou Yin Xian didn't realize this, and when the time came, Fei Jing laughed out loud, originally surprised and puzzled at the beginning because of the presence of a masked person, and then dissipated. Thinking about the imperial examination this time, I think that they should be here for this matter.

Fei Jingarc knew that he was innocent, so he didn't panic at all when he received the news, and let people check it generously.

"Fei Zhuangyuan, you ......"

Bai Zhou's words were interrupted before he could finish speaking, "Adults don't have to be so polite, just call me Fei Jingarc." "After all, it feels a little strange to call Fei Zhuangyuan and scream.

Bai Zhou nodded and asked, "I believe you are innocent in this matter, and I was also present at the invigilator that day, and I have seen your answer sheet." After speaking, he looked at Fei Jing's expression.

Fei Jing didn't have any waves on his face, but said: "Thank you for raising up, the villain just read a few days casually." ”

He has not yet gotten used to the change from a cloth cloth to the current champion of the imperial examination, and he speaks modestly with a trace of inferiority. It's a pity that this doesn't change Bai Zhou's opinion of him.

Bai Zhou still looked like he thought he was very good, and said, "Brother Fei is humble. After a while, he asked: "This time someone said that your ranking is untrue, do you know about this?" “

Fei Jingarc nodded and said, "I also think that I shouldn't be the champion this time, but I don't know why it fell on me inexplicably." ”

This sentence aroused the interest of the sacrificial dance, and she asked, "Then who do you think Hui?" ”

Fei Jingarc replied seriously: "Li Shijin." ”

"You know him?" The sacrificial dance asked.

Fei Jingarc nodded, "Yes, I met him on the way to Beijing to catch the exam, and I think Li Shijin is a talent." He read poetry and books, and had his own opinions on things in the court, and we talked a lot along the way, but I didn't expect that it would be my champion in the end. After speaking, he sighed: "It's really me who can't stand Li Shijin." ”

Bai Zhou was confused and asked, "What does it have to do with you being sorry for him if you win the top prize?" Isn't this something you learned from your own real talents? ”

Fei Jingarc said with emotion: "Yes, yes, but the candidate is not him, so I feel inexplicable regret." ”

The sacrificial dance was pale, "What kind of ranking did Li Shijin achieve?" ”

Fei Jingyan's face was a little pale when he heard this, and he muttered: "Without his ranking, he was defeated." ”

Fei Jing's long arc is tall and big, but his complexion is slightly pale, which is probably the characteristic of a scholar, he has never been in the field, so his appearance is so white.

So much so that the change in his face was not noticed for a while, and he asked funny: "Is it because you think his articles and knowledge are good, and other people don't approve of them?" ”

Fei Jingyan didn't answer immediately, but thought for a while before speaking: "No, although I haven't seen the article written by Li Shijin, his conversation is extraordinary, just like a son of a family." He personally seems to be unsure about the imperial examination on the surface, and talking to him, he can still know more or less that he is very confident in this examination. ”

Speaking of this, both of them were a little puzzled, even so, why were they still shouting at the city gate yesterday.

This matter is so big, even Fei Jingyan should know about it, but he never mentions this matter, what does he think?

The sacrificial dance looked at the inquiring gaze, and didn't speak coldly, if others had been frightened by such a gaze. Fei Jingarc is still like that, there is no change, is this the so-called decency? I thought to myself. He slowly mocked himself again. When did oneself come to like to think about these things, too.

She then asked: "Do you know that Li Shijin said that you are not the champion, he is the one?" ”

When I came, I knew that I would ask Li Shijin about it, and it seemed that I couldn't hide it.

Fei Jingarc said in disbelief: "I know, it's just that I didn't expect him to care about this matter like this, it's not the same person I saw him at all." ”

"And what kind of man is he you seeing?" Bai Zhou learned to be smart.

Sai Wuqing glanced at him and didn't speak.

"How to put it, he just doesn't care very much, as if he thinks it's not a big deal, and he doesn't care much about how he does in the exam." Fei Jingarc racked his brains to think about what kind of person he was, "But I remember that he said that he was an orphan and came to the exam to fulfill other people's wishes. ”

"Fulfill your wish? Whose heart? Did he say it? Bai Zhou asked.

Fei Jingyan took a sip slowly, the process was very long, waiting for Bai Zhou to be a little anxious, and then he said slowly: "No." ”

Do these two words last that long?

When Bai Zhou wanted to ask something more, the sacrificial dance said: "Since that's the case, let's not bother more." ”

"It's okay, the adults are handling the case, and we will try our best to cooperate." Fei Jingarc said: "I'll send you." ”

The place where Fei Jingarc lives is the place that was arranged after the results came out yesterday, and this is the first time that the imperial court has cared for the champion of the imperial examination so timely.

It's just that this time there was a problem, and the sacrificial dance lowered his eyes.

Suddenly, something flashed out of the corner of her eye, and when she looked up, she found nothing.

I think I haven't slept well these days.

Wrong!

The sacrificial dance suddenly walked in that direction, and Fei Jingarc was a little flustered when he saw the action of the sacrificial dance, so he hurriedly followed.

When the festival was over, I saw a wild cat that had been dead for a long time.

Seeing the wild cat, Fei Jingarc's expression began to be wrong, and he hurriedly called someone: "Come on, why doesn't a dead cat here know to clean it up?" ”

The people who followed hurriedly went to deal with the dead cat, but they only took a step before they were stopped by the sacrificial dance.

"Wait a minute, this cat doesn't seem to have been dead for long, don't move, the plague during this time is spread by such dead cats."

Everyone stopped in place after hearing the words of the sacrificial dance, and originally wanted to take two steps back, but behind him was the new champion Lang, and if something happened to him, they would not be able to explain.

What's more, since ancient times, there has been a habit of princesses marrying champions, and today's princesses are not old, but the eldest princess is just the right age. It has been sixteen years since the death of the first emperor, and the eldest princess was favored since she was born, but the good times did not last long, and the first emperor died in only two years. Left a message to ask Sima Yucheng to take care of her.

Now that he has never married, he thought that the eldest princess should have been in the palace like this, but who would have thought that he would have an interest in Fei Jingarc. At a glance from afar, I told the emperor to take care of today's champion. What does this mean, don't you understand?

Fei Jingarc watched them not step forward one by one, a little anxious, and went forward in person.

"Don't move." He stepped forward and whispered.

Fei Jingarc ignored her, and now he just wanted to dispose of the cat.

Seeing that he was about to touch the cat, his hand touched something cold and hard.

He suddenly withdrew his hand, and fixed his eyes on the long sword with a shiny and dazzling body. The person holding the sword is Qingqi.
