She held Huan Ci's arm and shook it constantly, looking at Huan Ci with blank eyes. Huan Ci couldn't bear to refuse her, so he handed her the chopsticks and said, "Only one bite." ”

"I knew my sister was good to me." Qiao Jing grinned and pinched a duck leg.

Huan Ci burst out laughing, and put a little on her head: "Why are you so greedy?" ”

Qiao Jing chewed the flesh and looked at her with crooked eyebrows, chewing the meat in her mouth.

Huan Ci shook his head and gave her a bowl of soup: "Eat slowly, don't choke." ”

Looking at the woman's eccentric appearance, she suddenly remembered herself when she was young. At that time, she was also so naughty, and I don't know how much trouble she caused to her father.

Now it's true, I'm older, and my heart has matured a lot, but I'm not as carefree as before.

Huan Ci reached out to help her cut her hair and asked, "What do you do to pass the time when you are idle?" I've had nothing to do these days, and I can't stay any longer. ”

"Didn't you just stay home for three days?" Qiao Jing was surprised.

Huan Ci lowered his head and chuckled: "You don't know, I can't be idle at all, I always want to play." It's just that it's no longer than sixteen or seventeen. ”

"What did my sister play at that time?" Qiao Jing asked with a wink.

"I play everything. Horseback riding, archery, schooling, boating, kite flying, or just catching the outlaws who bully weak women on the streets. I've also played Kemari, but unfortunately I didn't play well. ”

"It's a lot more fun than I am." Qiao Jing pouted.

Huan Ci looked puzzled: "You look playful, I don't believe you don't play." ”

"I couldn't go out at all when I was in the state, and now my husband is in charge of me here. Aside from the ladies and goddesses of the boudoir having fun together, I didn't have anything special. ”

Huan Ci smiled. She didn't have any friends when she was in the state, and she rarely went to other people's homes as guests. is like the fun played by the daughters in those ordinary boudoirs, she really hasn't played much, mainly because no one plays with her, and secondly, she is not a person with Yaxing.

"You don't have fun together every day, do you? What do you do on weekdays? She asked.

Qiao Jing thought for a moment and said lightly: "I followed my mother to learn some needlework, either to help her housekeeping, or to read and write with my sisters." Didn't you just say you went to school? But how do you treat school as fun? ”

These words reminded Huan Ci of the past in his mind. She lowered her head and smiled shyly, "I didn't invite my husband to learn at home." I don't know if you've heard of Dingyuan Academy? I used to go to school there for a year. ”

"Dingyuan Academy? Are you talking about the state one? After Qiao Jing reacted, she covered her mouth in surprise and stumbled, "You, aren't you a woman?" How so? ”

Huan Ci smiled: "I was too naughty at the time. But that's why I'm now married to my husband. ”

"Do you mean you two knew each other before you got married?" Qiao Jing looked at her curiously.

Huan Ci nodded, his thoughts drifting back to that spring six years ago.

*

Just after the Shangyuan Festival, Bingzhou College resumed as before.

At the gate of the school, Huan Ci got off the carriage with his hands behind his back and in high spirits. She glanced at the handsome scholar and hooked the corners of her mouth: "Let's go, go in." ”

The scholar glanced at her resentfully, and followed behind Huan Ci with his book bag on his back.

Today he was coerced here by this person, originally he was the scholar of King Dingyuan, but he was robbed by Huan Ci a few days ago.

It's obviously a woman, but she has to pretend to be a man, and her voice is deliberately low, and she looks like a man.

Following the route in his memory, Huan Ci found Qingyuan Hall with ease. There are many schools in Bingzhou Academy, and Qingyuan Hall is where Fu Shen reads in the morning.

Yesterday, she had already instructed the people in the school to arrange her seat next to Fu Shen.

Qingyuan Hall is a three-bay room, with a small courtyard on the left and right sides of the big in the middle, and verandahs in front and back, the environment is extremely quiet, which is very suitable for reading.

When Huan Ci arrived, almost all the students in the school had arrived, and there was a teaching assistant sitting in front of him, and Huan Ci had seen him at his uncle's house, and after glancing at him, he went to his place.

When everyone saw the new students, they all looked curiously in this direction. Huan Ci ignored everyone's eyes and pretended not to care and sat next to Fu Shen.

The man had already arrived, and was whispering the article in his hand. Huan Ci pricked up his ears and listened carefully, only to feel that his voice was very low. That day, she looked at her from afar in Fufu for a long time, but unfortunately she couldn't talk to him.

She now runs to the school for him, so she was scolded by her father.

The man read it carefully, and didn't give her a single look. Huan Ci took the book bag from the scholar's hand, took out a copy of "Lao Tzu" and read it.

However, she was also absent-minded, in fact she was eavesdropping on Fu Shen's voice.

After a while, the teaching assistant knocked on the table and said, "Dr. Li will come over in a quarter of an hour, you guys are ready to prepare." ”

Dr. Li is a doctor of the Five Classics and can be said to be the most knowledgeable teacher in Bingzhou College. What he wants to talk about today is "The Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period", and Huan Ci hurriedly took out the book from the book bag. She glanced at the book on Fu Shen's desk, it looked very clean, but there were a lot of things written on it, which showed that he studied seriously.

After the teaching assistant went out, Huan Ci looked at Fu Shen and said with a smile: "I don't know who your name is?" ”

Fu Shen glanced at her faintly, but did not answer her words.

Huan Ci raised his eyebrows slightly. This man was colder than she thought, but it wasn't a surprise.

That day in Fufu, she never took her eyes off him. At that time, she had carefully observed, this person had never had a smiling face, and he did not talk to others, even the bride and groom still had a faint expression when they came to toast.

Even if he didn't say it, Huan Ci would have already heard his name. She wrote the word "Song Xin" on a piece of paper and handed it to Fu Shen, and said softly: "This is my name." ”

Fu Shen glanced at her, turned to look at the paper, and then wrote the word "Fu Shen" on the paper.

"Brother, good name. I really like this word of caution. Huan Ci hooked his lips and chuckled.

Fu Shen ignored him and told the scholar next to him to grind quickly.

Despite this, Huan Ci was not discouraged, leaned over to him, and said: "This brother, I just came to Bingzhou, and I don't know anything about things here, since we are sitting together, it means that we are destined people, please take care of us in the future." ”

Hearing this, Fu Shen turned his head to look her up and down, and a trace of surprise crossed his eyes.

Huan Ci naturally knew why he was surprised. Even if she pretends to be a man, she was originally born with a pair of beautiful eyes, in her father's words, she is born with affectionate eyes, even if she is dressed like this, it is difficult to hide her handsomeness, and she is also eye-catching when she stands in a crowd.

She gestured to the scholar, who quickly pulled a box out of his bookbag. Huan Ci buckled the box onto Fu Shen's table: "First time we met, this thing is for you." Seeing that Fu Shen was about to return the box, she hurriedly pressed the man's hand: "It's just a wolf's hair, you also use it for reading and writing on weekdays." This is what my father instructed me to give, and she said let me have a good relationship, and you can accept it. ”

Fu Shen's eyes were a little suspicious, but he still accepted the brush and said in a deep voice: "Thank you." ”

"I don't know where you are? Do you live in the academy or at home on weekdays? I came all the way from Yunzhou, and I live in the guest house of the academy on weekdays. Huan Ci lied.

Of course, she's not entirely lying. She had already sent someone to arrange the guest house, which was on the edge of Fu Shen's room, after all, as the saying goes, the building near the water gets the moon first, so naturally everything must be arranged.

Fu Shen glanced at her, frowned, and said, "Dr. Li is coming, you should be quiet." ”

Huan Ci pouted dissatisfiedly, and instructed his scholar to move quickly.

After spreading out the paper and grinding it, all the scholars went outside. Huan Ci looked left and right, and was very curious about everything around him.

This school was set up by my father, and it is said that it has been running for ten years, and Huan Ci often came to play when he was a child, but then the school was strictly managed, and no one was allowed to enter and leave at will, and she has not been to this place since then.

Compared with the past, the current Bingzhou School has changed a lot, no matter what else, but the tables in the school are much better than before, even if the snow outside has not melted, the room is very warm.

Just as she was looking left and right, a familiar man suddenly came in from outside the door. Huan Ci looked at it, and it turned out to be her uncle Yin Xuan.

My uncle is a gentleman in the academy, and he is also a doctor, but he is not so powerful, and he usually only talks about one book in the Great Sutra, which is the "Spring and Autumn Zuo Biography".

The person who came was not Dr. Lee, and everyone was surprised. Yin Xuan stared at Huan Ci and squinted, walked quickly to the front, and said, "Dr. Li is on leave today, and I will teach you on his behalf for the time being." ”

"Okay." Huan Ci smiled and said.

For a moment everyone looked at her. After all, Dr. Li is a doctor of the Five Classics, and he has studied the "Spring and Autumn Zuo Biography" very thoroughly, and Yin Xuan is only about thirty-five years old, and in their opinion, this person completely relies on his brother-in-law to enter this academy.

Huan Ci could naturally guess what they thought. Although her uncle never mentioned it, she heard the guests mention it to her father. She believed in the abilities of her uncle, who had been familiar with the Four Books and the Five Classics since he was a child, but for some reason he was reluctant to take the imperial examination.

Yin Xuan only said that what he wanted to talk about today was the scriptures and biography of the fifth year of Duke Xu, and Huan Ci followed Fu Shen to open the book and looked at his uncle with blank eyes.

She bought the book freshly, it was clean, and it looked brand new.

Catching a glimpse of her book, a hint of doubt crossed Fu Shen's eyes, and then disappeared in an instant.

Yin Xuan stood in front and saw it clearly. As soon as he walked in, he recognized Huan Ci at a glance, and he didn't feel it in his heart. This girl never wanted to study, why did she come to school now?

Thinking of this, he paced around the room with the book in his hand, casually read a few words about the contents of the book, and after a while, he walked to Huan Ci's side.

Looking down at the distracted woman, he chuckled lightly and said, "I don't know what you think of the monarch Lu Xugong?" ”

Huan Ci was stunned, and threw a resentful look at his uncle. Now that everyone was looking at her, she couldn't pretend that she hadn't heard, so she had to stand up slowly and said, "The student thinks that this Lu Xugong-"

She didn't know who this Lu Xugong was, and she didn't know anything about his life, where could she evaluate it. She can see that her uncle's accident is trying to hurt her.

Quickly scanning the contents of the book, Huan Ci complained bitterly in his heart. At a glance, it was Qin and Jin, and there was no shadow of Lu at all.

After stammering for a long time, even Fu Shen turned his head to look at her. She was heartbroken, and said in a low voice: "Students know that their knowledge is shallow, and now it is really whimsical to understand political affairs, where is worthy of talking about ancient monarchs?" ”

She heard the man next to her snort coldly, with obvious mockery.

Yin Xuan looked at her playfully and said coldly, "It's good to know, you can sit down." ”

Huan Ci sat down angrily, holding his head in his hands, thinking about how to settle accounts with him later.
