"Second brother, do you want to be a leader?"

Before Bai Erzhuang left, Ah Zhen suddenly asked.

"I've already stopped thinking about this, and I just want to be a rural private school gentleman in this life."

The big stone that pressed on Bai Erzhuang's heart was eliminated, and he had stopped thinking about the imperial examination for so many years, just because he didn't want to be involved in the whirlpool of King Kang. Although for so many years, none of the students who were in the same period who were married to King Kang came to look for him, but this matter was always heavily pressed in his heart, lest one day it would bring disaster to his family.

Now this burden can finally be lifted.

Bai Erzhuang bowed his hand to Ah Zhen and left.

Out of the gate of the mansion.

Bai Erzhuang broke out in a cold sweat, and was stirred by the cold wind of late autumn, only to feel unprecedentedly sober.

The late autumn sky is clear and high, the sun is light, and a row of geese fly south in a line in the autumn wind.

He remembered that many years ago, he and An Huairen, Wan Chunhua and others were on the bank of the Huaishui River and talked about it.

After so many years, things have long been different.

Wan Chunhua recognized him from the time he saw him in the county office.

Wan Chunhua caught him not necessarily because of Bai Sanzhuang, but because he felt that he was unwilling to follow King Kang back then, and would rather ruin his future. In Wan Chunhua's view, he was a traitor among them, betraying his ideals and betraying the righteous relationship between the emperor and the grandson and everyone.

Therefore he must be put to death by this.

Originally, Bai Erzhuang still wanted to intercede and want to collect the funeral for the dead Wan Chunhua.

But what Fang Cai said to Ah Zhen, he figured it out, Wan Chunhua has been secretly following King Kang for so many years, King Kang's nature has been exposed over the years, and their willingness to follow shows that they are not innocent.

From the first emperor to the current Emperor Jing, a series of pros and cons reforms have been carried out to reduce taxes and taxes, and Wan Chunhua and his ilk can't see it? But he still followed King Kang wholeheartedly, and tried to rebel for that vain position.

These people knew that the rebellion would plunge the world into chaos and plunge the people into misery, but they were still obsessed.

Therefore, Wan Chunhua and An Huairen did not die for the original confidant of King Kang, but were blinded by a trace of greed and deviated from their hearts.

Otherwise, Wan Chunhua has been in officialdom for so many years, and he has no political achievements at all.

And An Huairen is not to mention, pretending to be crazy and stupid to hurt his selfishness.

These two people are not worthy of sympathy at all.

It's just that I don't know how many of the students who were caught by King Kang at the beginning repented.

Thinking of this, Bai Erzhuang was very stunned.

A familiar voice came from not far away, and Bai Erzhuang followed the sound and looked over.

His childhood sweetheart, Xia Qinghe, stood in front of a clump of pink bean flowers, Xie Xiaolian stopped at the horse, and the two were talking about something.

Xia Qinghe has obviously walked out of the haze of harmony, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes are full of smiles, as if she has returned to her delicate and pungent girlhood.

Recently, there have been a lot of rumors about Xia Qinghe and Xie Xiaolian in the village, saying that Xie Xiaolian has no fiancée in the capital at all, and that the handkerchief in Xie Xiaolian's arms was Xia Qinghe's.

However, Xia Qinghe laughed at these gossips, and Xie Xiaolian did not defend these gossips.

Now the two of them are not shy about talking and laughing on the road where people come and go in the village.

Bai Erzhuang shook his head and smiled bitterly.

What right does he have to be jealous, his marriage with Xia Qinghe has already come to the end of the mountain when he was entangled by the imperial grandson.

And Eugene Gui's calculation is just the epilogue symbol of this marriage.

Xie Xiaolian flew on his horse and hurried over.

Xia Qinghe's smile didn't have time to retract his gaze at Bai Erzhuang, and he was stunned.

Bai Erzhuang was also stunned.

"Sanzhuang is okay?" Xia Qinghe took the initiative to ask, "I heard that his back is injured." ”

"It doesn't matter the third brother." Bai Erzhuang said.

I heard my sister say that if Xia Qinghe hadn't slashed the knife in the official's hand that night, Xiaolang might have died.

Thinking of this, Bai Erzhuang sincerely thanked Xia Qinghe: "Thank you for saving Xiaolang that day." ”

"It's not worth anything, it's a good thing, I can't watch Xiaolang get hurt." Xia Qinghe waved his hand, and when he saw Eugene Gui probing his brain at the door of Bai's house, he turned around and left with a sneer.

Bai Erzhuang stood for a long time and didn't come back to his senses.

After You Jingui brought two catties of tofu from You's house and handed them to Xie Chuntao, he didn't see Bai Erzhuang at home.

I was suspicious.

Even though Xia Qinghe had clearly told herself that Bai Erzhuang was the person she didn't want, Eugene Gui was still worried that Bai Erzhuang would be fascinated by Xia Qinghe.

After watching at the door for a while, Bai Erzhuang really accosted Xia Qinghe.

Eugene Gui was dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say anything, now the old Bai family is not as good as before, and she has divorced her at every turn, she can't find such a good family that eats meat every day.

She not only saw Bai Erzhuang's demented eyes, but also saw Xie Xiaolian who had gone away from the horse, and Eugene Gui was now praying with both hands that Xia Qinghe would simply marry Xie Xiaolian.

In this way, the mind of the man in his own house is cut off.

"Second sister-in-law, what are you looking at?" Xiao Fuyuan watched the sister-in-law handling the crabs in the yard for a while, and when he came to the door, he saw the second sister-in-law standing behind the door and poking her head out to look out.

"Didn't see anything, sister." Eugene Gui was so respectful to his sister-in-law.

"Second sister-in-law, sister-in-law makes crab roe and tofu buns for me, she has to be busy with other dishes, you go and help me pick crab roe." Xiao Fuyuan instructed Eugene Gui.

Eugene Gui listened to the sister-in-law's instructions, and agreed to pick the crabs.

"Second brother." Xiao Fuyuan naturally saw Bai Erzhuang, and asked with a smile, "What is the second brother looking at?" ”

"I'm looking at the geese." Bai Erzhuang said.

Xiao Fuyuan raised his head, and sure enough, he saw a row of geese crossing the blue sky.

"Did the second brother just come out of Ah Zhen's house? Is he at home? Xiao Fuyuan asked.

Bai Erzhuang nodded, his sister was too smart at a young age. ”

"I'll go find him." Xiao Fuyuan said and came to the opposite mansion and pushed open the door smoothly.

Xiao Fuyuan ran to Ah Zhen's house, took out a crumpled bright yellow from his pocket, handed it to Ah Zhen and said, "This is what I saw from my pigsty, crushed under the sow that was about to lay down. ”

Ah Zhen took it and unfolded it, dumbfounded.

This is the so-called dragon robe in the mouth of Wan Chunhua's brother-in-law Ma Gongcha.

It is said to be a dragon robe, but it is a bright yellow silk shirt with a dragon pattern drawn on it.

It was very light and thin, so Xiao Fuyuan was stuffed into his pocket and brought it.

This dragon robe was buried by Wan Chunhua under the plane tree of the old Bai family, and that day Ma Gong made people dig for a long time and did not dig it, but he didn't expect to find it in the pigsty.

Xiao Fuyuan naturally knew about this, so he said to Ah Zhen: "It is estimated that when I was under the plane tree, I was arched out by my sow and then pressed under me, so the official messenger did not find out that day." ”

Ah Zhen looked carefully at the dragon robe as thin as a gauze robe.

He Shun on the side was pleasantly surprised.

This dragon robe that was lost in Ma Gong's mouth was ordered to be draped on his body by his subordinates when the abolished prince and Emperor Zuo's father and son met in battle, hoping for a complete mutiny.

Unexpectedly, King Jing on the border took the lead in attacking the palace.

When the abolished prince set himself on fire in the East Palace, the dragon robe disappeared.

When they learned that a dragon robe was buried in the Bai family, He Shun and the others were worried, for fear that the emperor would suspect that the young master had bad intentions.

I am afraid that this lost dragon robe will appear next to the young master out of thin air, that is, it will be even more unwashable.

It seems that King Kang's party is trying to put the young master to death, and the old Bai family is just cannon fodder for the young master.

Ah Zhen frowned, asked He Shun to put it away, and ordered He Shun to send it to the capital along with Emperor Zuo's funeral.
