Chapter 384: For a long time
Ippingak, the most famous gastronomic mecca in Xuanjing, is home to the best chefs of the Great Xuanguo.
It is said that many of the imperial dining rooms of the Great Xuan Palace are selected from here, so the business is the most prosperous, and many officials like to come here to entertain friends.
Lintian is also the first time to come to this kind of place, but with Tuofei's lead, it saves a lot of trouble.
Xu Hanlin brought a letter and invited Lintian to come to Yipin Pavilion to reminisce about the past, and Lintian naturally didn't dare to slack off, so he came over early.
The decoration here is no worse than that of Fengxuan Building, but no matter where it is, there will be class classification, and it is obvious that the more you go to the top floor, the more noble the guests are.
Lintian asked the guy in the store about the name of the Accord that Xu Hanlin had made, and then followed the maid who received him to the upper floor. Tuofei didn't like to talk to officialdom, he felt very old-fashioned, so he simply left to drink flower wine first, and Lintian naturally didn't stop him.
The business in the store is very prosperous, and it can be seen that many children of officials and nobles like to come here, and it is very face-saving to treat guests here, and the dishes are really good.
Lintian came to the door of an Accord, and through the wooden door, he heard someone talking and laughing inside.
These voices were familiar to Lin Tian, and then he smiled lightly and pushed the door in.
"A few adults have been waiting for a long time, are the juniors late?"
At this time, the few people sitting in the Accord all smiled when they saw Lintian coming, and Xu Hanlin turned around and said:
"Haha, not late. The time is just right, come and sit down, Lintian. ”
After Lintian responded, he came to the seat, and today there were also Cangzhou Mansion Yin and Master Zhang, and there was also a person who was familiar with Lintian.
It is the head of the National Fortune Palace, Cheng Ying.
Listening to Xu Hanlin's explanation, they have been friends for many years. Like-minded, many times they go out to drink together, but it just a coincidence that they have had a relationship with Lintian or helped him.
Mr. Zhang has not changed, and his style of action is very regular. He looked at Lintian, nodded and smiled:
"Wenxian I really didn't read it wrong that day, I knew that you were definitely not a thing in the pool, and now it seems that my choice that day was right. ”
Lintian naturally knew that what Master Zhang was talking about was to help himself in Wenxian County and put himself on the road to fame.
"Speaking of which, the younger generation should pay tribute to the adult, if it wasn't for Lord Zhang's help at that time, the younger generation may not be where it is today. ”
After saying that, he drank a glass of wine. Master Zhang also accepted, and then smiled.
"Well, it's just that the grievances between you and the Wen family haven't been resolved until now?"
Lintian nodded, Lord Zhang knew a little bit about it, so he didn't mean to hide it.
"Naturally, no, when Xiucai took the exam, the Wen family still didn't let me go. It's just that I got through it, I thought. In the future, their Wen family will come again. ”
Xu Hanlin frowned, the Wen family here, he naturally knew that it was 'Wen Liang'.
"Wen Liang's Ministry of Rites is now obvious that it is already on the side of the Nine Kings, including Lord Wang of the Criminal Department. Now that the Holy Lord is rectifying the court, but these two people appear, I am afraid it will be even more difficult. ”
Cangzhou Mansion Yin Shun smoothed his beard and sighed secretly: "Fortunately, Lintian appeared yesterday, otherwise the county lord might really be taken away by Jing Yang." All the efforts of the Holy One may be in vain. ”
While talking, a maid came in from outside the door and began to serve the food.
Cheng Ying looked at Lintian, a little relieved, and at the same time admired his 'uncle'.
He never thought that Lintian's ability would be so powerful, with two Nine Heavenly Dragons, and it was under the condition that his luck was exhausted.
At this time, he had to admit that the vision of the man in Tsing Yi was indeed a little unique.
"Lintian, I really didn't expect that when you were lucky in the National Fortune Palace, I was really worried about you, your luck is so exhausted, I'm afraid that the road to cultural cultivation in the future will not be smooth, but your talent is superior, don't be proud in the future, continue to work hard. ”
Lintian arched his hand, "Thank you for the mention, Lintian remember." ”
Xu Hanlin put down his wine glass.
"Lintian, in addition to catching up with the old days, I also want to talk to you about other things. ”
Lintian saw Xu Hanlin's serious face, knowing that it must not be a trivial matter, but he didn't understand, what can he do with a show?
"Speak, sir, juniors. ”
"Well, yesterday's feast, I think you should have heard some rumors on Prime Minister Tuo's side, and now you are a little different from before. ”
Xu Hanlin looked at Lin Tian and continued: "If the identity of the county lord is known to the world, Yasukuni will definitely not give up if he does not get the county lord this time, but since there is an agreement to recruit relatives again, it may still be a little more peaceful for the time being, but on the side of the nine kings, I'm afraid it's not so simple." ”
"The Nine Kings have been in the court for many years, and there are many henchmen, between him and the Shengshang, sooner or later, there will be a real fight on the surface, and we and other officials and ministers think that they can't do much for the people, but we must at least keep the current Ming Jun. The Nine Kings are not pure-hearted, if he really becomes the throne one day, I am afraid that the foundation of Daxuan will not be guaranteed. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Tian frowned, he could understand what Xu Han Lin Tian said, but he didn't understand it very much, what did this have to do with him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I understand what you said, and I can see yesterday's feast clearly, but the younger generations don't understand, how can I be involved in such a big event?
Cheng Ying looked at Lintian with a deep meaning in her eyes.
"You also said yesterday that as a Daxuan person, you are naturally qualified to contribute to Daxuan, don't you still want to join the army to take back Helan Mountain?"
Xu Hanlin nodded and said, "That's right, and Lintian, you must know that the Nine Kings will not let you go either, and it is impossible for us and the Holy Lord to protect you for long, so you must grow up!"
Lintian lowered his head and thought for a while, "But my luck is exhausted, although I have confidence, but why me?"
Cheng Ying nodded on the side, as if he knew what Lintian was going to ask.
"Lintian, you must know that the poems of the Nine Heavens Dragon are not written by anyone, and the dragon pattern jade seal of Daxuan is a relic of Emperor Xuan. There is the will of Emperor Xuan in it. When he acknowledges your poetry, it shows that you have the hope of becoming like him. ”
Cheng Ying looked at Lin Tian and continued: "The future of Da Xuan does not depend on the Lord of Ruoyu alone, the saint has never thought like this, the future of Da Xuan is your young generation. Every year, the 'Hunting Country Literary Society' will crush us in Yasukuni, so Jing Yang dares to be so arrogant. In today's court, many old people are already deeply rooted, either as henchmen of the Nine Kings, or some guys who don't care about the world, so many talents can only start from the younger generation. ”
"Among the many young generations, we feel that you are one of the best candidates we have ever met, and you have the potential to lead the younger generation of Daxuan. ”
Lintian listened in a trance. He felt that this was a bit of a stretch, when would he be able to lead the younger generation? He was a little embarrassed and speechless.
Luck is exhausted, he comes from a poor family, and he is just a talent who has just entered the literary cultivation, no matter how Lin Tian thinks about it, he thinks it is unlikely, but looking at the expressions of several people, it doesn't look like a compliment or a joke.
Cheng Ying looked at Lintian and smiled lightly.
"I know what you're thinking. It doesn't matter what your status is, when you become a figure that everyone recognizes. No one will be biased. As for your luck, hehe, boy, maybe you don't know it yourself, in fact, your luck is exhausted for a reason. ”
Heard Cheng Ying's words. Lin Tian was suddenly shocked.
Lin Tian once had doubts about the depletion of his luck, because even if he had less luck, it would not be possible to deplete it to this extent, but even so. He couldn't find any reason or reason either.
It's just that after hearing Cheng Ying's words today, Lintian's heart suddenly felt like a storm and began to surge.
Anyone knows the effect of luck on themselves, and even if he has always been calm, it is impossible to be indifferent.
Cheng Ying looked at Lintian's surprised expression, and then smiled.
"I can see that you are surprised, but there should be no mistake, do you remember your examiner when you were taking the exam?"
Lintian came back to his senses and mentioned the chief examiner of the Xiucai exam, Lintian you can't help but think of the man in green clothes and crown.
"The junior remembers that this senior also helped me a lot at that time, but I am still unknown, and it is said that he is a member of the Son of Heaven Academy. ”
Cheng Ying nodded, "That person is my senior uncle, and he is also an important figure in the Son of Heaven Academy. ”
Lin Tian suddenly realized that he could feel the extraordinaryness of the man in Tsing Yi, and at that time he thought that it was possible that the man in Tsing Yi had reached the realm of a saint.
After listening to Cheng Ying's introduction, he knew that the man in Tsing Yi turned out to be a big man in Tianzi Academy.
Cheng Ying continued: "Uncle Shi has always been indifferent to the outside world, but some time ago, due to the trust of the Holy Lord, he went out of the mountain to handle matters, and he was named the chief examiner of Xiucai, but after Uncle Shi came back, he praised you, and just a few days ago, I talked to Uncle Shi about you and your luck. “
Cheng Ying looked at Lintian and continued: "Of course, he can't see the real source, but with the realm of Uncle Shi, you can know that your luck should be sealed, as for how it is sealed, or what the reason, there is no way to know, but he once said that your luck should not be like this." ”
After hearing Cheng Ying's words, Xu Hanlin and the others were also a little surprised.
"This sealing luck is rare throughout the ages, unless the realm above the saint makes a move, I really don't know what kind of means can be used to seal a person's luck!"
Lin Tian relieved himself, and then said: "My lord, I don't know if the predecessors of Tsing Yi have said that what kind of means are sealed?"
Cheng Ying shook his head, "There's no way to know, Uncle Shi didn't say it, but I think he shouldn't know either, or he didn't tell me, but this information is also good for you, at least you know that you still have hope, so now, you have to move forward to unlock your secret." ”
Xu Hanlin also nodded, "That's right, Lintian, we have high expectations for you, and your life may be a little different in the future, but we will help you at a specific time, I hope you grow up as soon as possible, and the hope of Daxuan's future is on you!"
"We?" asked Lintian a little strangely after finally discovering the 'you' in the words.
Several adults at the table looked at Lintian and smiled silently, Lintian, you are a little helpless, he knows what this means, but it is not time to tell himself.
Although he knew that his luck was sealed, Lintian's heart was a little turbulent, but he still calmly ate with a few adults.
Until late afternoon. He and a few adults went back separately......
Returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lintian said hello to Tuofei and returned to the room by himself.
Today's news made Lintian a little excited, because in these days, Lintian had almost given up on his luck.
He was in Fengxuan Tower that day. I once saw my own sea, the dry and cracked earth, the basin that was difficult to fill.
It's just that he really didn't expect that his luck was sealed, and he knew that the realm of the man in Tsing Yi was definitely not low, so their words, if they didn't lie to themselves, should not be wrong.
But why is his luck sealed?
Lintian lay quietly on the bed, thinking seriously. There was no light in the room, and it was surprisingly quiet.
Lintian recalls his past and sees if he can find some clues.
Is it because he fell into the lake? I have recovered the memory of my past life, but my luck has been sealed?
Lintian thought about it and felt that it didn't make sense, and then he continued to comb, and slowly he thought about it and went to Cangzhou by himself. All the experience, suddenly his eyes lit up.
It seems that before the exam. I didn't encounter anything special, but from the day of the Xiucai exam, my poems and essays suddenly couldn't resonate with luck!
Wenjia!
Lintian naturally thought of them, and only the Wen family would attack him, which was reasonable.
The more Lintian thought about it, the more strange he felt. Even if the Wen family really hated themselves, they could just send someone to assassinate them, why did they have to work so hard to seal their luck?
And luck is not something that can be sealed at will, can their Wen family really have this kind of means?
Lintian fell into confusion. He slowly closed his eyes, and suddenly a sea of fire appeared in his mind!
Lintian suddenly opened his eyes, there was a cold sweat behind his back, Lintian began to breathe hard, and it took a long time to ease down slightly.
Unconsciously, Lintian remembered the fire in the past, and for some reason, he just felt that it must have something to do with the Wen family!
On the day of the memorial to his parents, he was reminded by the mysterious old man that he opened the tomb, which was empty, and this burial was done with the help of the Wen family, so it was obvious that the Wen family must know something.
Lintian's eyes gradually became micron, although he didn't know what the fire had to do with his current luck being sealed.
But Lintian suddenly had a feeling that the Wen family wanted to die by himself like this, and there must be something hidden in it.
He was in the Wen family for sixteen years, and the Wen family should have killed him a long time ago, but they didn't, but when they left the Wen family, they were chased and killed so hard.
The fog swirled in Lintian's mind little by little, and he really didn't know how to explain it for a while, but Lintian knew.
When I really grow up, it will be the time for Huiwen County to find out the truth.
But right now, he may have some other things to do, such as improving his rank as soon as possible, or trying to figure out how to escape the revenge of Jiuwang and Wen Liang.
......
On the official road to the north of Daxuan, there was a group of marchers, and their costumes were not Daxuan.
A 'Honored Sheep and Four Ponies' car was in the center of them, and the procession drove slowly.
Jing Yang sat quietly in the carriage, looking a little calm, but his trademark smile was no longer there.
On his side, there was another person, none other than his retinue, who was also the leader of the team.
The man looked at Jing Yang and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, let me do him, why bother so much!"
Jing Yang held a book in his hand and watched silently, with no expression on his face, but he heard the man's words, but he slowly gasped.
"No, do you think he's really my opponent?"
"But ......"
What else did the man say, Jing Yang waved his hand.
"Hmph, I admit that he is indeed different from mortals, but as I said before, it is limited to this, Wen Xiu is based on luck, but he can't, this time it was just an accident that made him take advantage of the loophole. ”
Jing Yang's eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of sharpness, "Hmph, what I Jing Yang wanted, I haven't been able to get it, Zhao Ruoyu I am going to decide! You can stop it in Daxuan, but after some time, I will also go to the Dongzhou Holy Courtyard, at that time, I don't believe it, who else can stop me from approaching her, hum, it's a pity that Lintian is not qualified to go to the Holy Courtyard, so he is not my opponent." ”
"It's okay to keep him for the time being, I really want to trample him under my feet in a few years on the battlefield of Mobei Frontier City, in front of the county lord Ruoyu!"
......
The night is gradually coming, the night in the capital, is still noisy, people after dinner, can't help but talk about the deeds of Lintian, but with the word of mouth of everyone, the background introduction of Lintian, some people are speechless. After all, when it was spread, it was all imagined and exaggerated by people, so the current Lintian has slowly risen in people's hearts...... (To be continued.) )
