The moonlight is like a hook, and the stars are brilliant.

A gust of cold wind blew by, under the moonlight, Xia Yuan and Xia Ru's uncle and nephew sat in the courtyard chatting, not far away, Xia Zhu led the snot baby Xia Chen to set off a small firecracker, and there was a crisp sound from time to time.

In the room, Zhao Yuerong and Xia Shu chatted happily.

That's right, this is Xia Confucian's courtyard, and when they returned to Zhuangzi, the couple really had nowhere to go but to live at their uncle's house.

As for their own house, good fellows, there are no four walls but floor tiles.

The thieves went in tears when they entered, maybe they couldn't bear it, and threw down a few copper plates to express their hearts.

At this time, Xia Yuan behaved as usual, and had recovered from the anxiety of blowing up the Jingzhong Temple before, and even silently forgot about it.

All of this was a good thing done by the dog prince, the Zhihua Temple he chose, the artillery battle he set off in the Jingzhong Temple, and even the lead was ordered by him.

So the Jingzhong Temple was blown up, and the temple was on fire, what does it have to do with someone in my Xia?

Of course, he did have a little bit of responsibility, after all, he did that artillery battle, but Xia Yuan felt that Prince Dog would not betray him.

has known Zhu Houzhao for so long, he has already figured out the temperament of this product, absurd and playful, and has a jumpy personality, but with a pure heart, sometimes it is cute and cute, and the most important thing is that this product is still very hot-blooded.

As we all know, the hot-blooded teenagers in the second secondary school are often very righteous, and those who pay attention to righteousness pay attention to carrying everything by themselves, because they are very handsome.

Besides, if it is betrayed, I am afraid that the people of the government have already found Xiajiazhuang, but now there is no slightest disturbance, what does this mean?

This shows that Zhu Houzhao and that kid silently carried everything alone.

In his heart, he praised His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again, and Xia Yuan pulled his thoughts back and continued to listen to Xia Ru's emotion there.

As for what he sighed, it was nothing more than that his nephew had a chance, married a daughter-in-law, was admitted to understand the Yuan Gong, and bought a set of yards in the capital, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law could look at Balabala.

Xia Ru was talking, and with a swish, a glowing body that spun in a circle burrowed under his chair.

Startled by the sudden thing, he scrambled out of his seat, and then looked at something that was circling under his chair.

Xia Yuan is also staring, this thing seems to be a ground mouse, I have to say that although there are no types of artillery battles in the Ming Dynasty, just firecrackers, but the types of fireworks are really rich beyond imagination.

In the three major boxes that he came back, there were more than a dozen kinds of fireworks, some of which were put in his hand and flashed, and the most common kind of fireworks boxes, which belonged to the category of salutes, and the kind of fireworks that scurried on the ground as soon as they were lit, called ground rats.

Originally, Xia Ru only let them set off small firecrackers and save these fireworks for the night of Chinese New Year's Eve and Zhengdan Festival, but it was obvious that the two brothers did not resist the temptation.

At this time, the brothers stood far away, each holding a lit incense stick in their hands, looking nervous.

Xia Ru beckoned to the two of them, "You two come here." ”

After hesitating for a while, Xia Suke took the first step forward, and pulled his younger brother with the other hand, and when he walked to him, he immediately said, "Dad, we were wrong."

Xia Ru kicked their buttocks one by one without saying a word, and then snatched the incense from the hands of the two brothers, "Go back to the house and sleep for me!" ”

"Oh"

The brothers reluctantly returned to the house, and Xia Ru sat back in the chair, and did not continue to sigh, but asked: "These days, Brother Yuan lives in Beijing, has he ever read books and reviewed his homework every day?" ”

Xia Yuan's face was not red and his heart was not beating: "Oh, I read it." ”

"That's fine." Xia Ru was relieved, "In the prosperous place of the capital, you are young and young, and my uncle has always been worried that you will be blinded by the world of flowers, and he feels that he is the Duke of Xie Yuan, so he slacked off and left his scriptures behind. ”

"It's the end of the year, and next year's spring will be the spring exam, and there are only two months left.

This will try not to compare with the township test, how many Xiucai even if they win the lift, but they are also in this spring and sink into the sand, among these people who fell off the list, there are many people in the township test, and even Yayuan Xie Yuan is not nothing. ”

Speaking of this, Xia Ru slowly breathed a sigh of relief, watched the white mist exhaled from his mouth drift away in the air, and then said softly:

"Uncle knows that you are talented and intelligent, but there is never a shortage of things in this world that hurt Zhongyong, the more intelligent people are, the more diligent they must study, I heard you say that you are studying hard all day long in Beijing, my uncle is relieved, I want to come to the spring exam next year, and our Xia family's Xie Yuangong is already in control."

Hearing this, Xia Yuan was a little ashamed, and his uncle also trusted himself too much, and he actually believed in his own evil.

Studying hard all day long, how can this style of painting appear on oneself.

I've always relied on plug-ins.

"Uncle, is he sure about this test?"

"Nope."

Xia Ru replied quite simply, without hesitation, and then explained: "Uncle is different from you, not as smart as you, uncle has been talented and dull since he was a child, and it is a blessing to be admitted to this person, and my uncle is satisfied with this, and he never dares to think about such a thing as winning the entrance examination, so he is not ready to participate in the examination."

With this fame, my uncle has long put aside his studies these days, and sits at home every day, and is invited to some banquets from time to time, which is quite nourishing.

Now my uncle is thinking about when there will be a vacancy for a minor official, and when the time comes, the uncle will be elected, so that my uncle will also have an official body, haha."

Xia Ru's little abacus crackled, and in the end, he fell into the fantasy of a better life in the future, and couldn't help laughing happily.

He smiled happily, but Xia Yuan's face darkened, he spoke seriously, and said bitterly, looking very elder-like, but the meaning was very clear in a simple summary.

You are smart, so you have to work hard, and the matter of honoring your ancestors will be handed over to you, uncle, I, just lie flat at home.

Is this reasonable?

The little abacus is really crackling, and he said that he would become an official when there was a vacancy for a petty official.

Xia Yuan really wanted to tell him the cruel reality viciously, thinking that it was really beautiful, but it's a pity that being an official or something has nothing to do with you, you only deserve to be knighted!

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, relatives will receive knighthoods, either marquis or earl, basically earls.

Of course, the premise of all this is that his sister-in-law Xia Shu is indeed the Xia Queen in history.

As for whether it is or not, Xia Yuan can't be sure, after all, Queen Xia is really not famous, if it is among the queens of the Ming Dynasty, there is a ranking of queens with the lowest sense of existence, this queen is definitely the best existence.

Even the reason why he knew that Wuzong's empress surname was Xia was related to that Emperor of Wanshou.

When he was in junior high school in his last life, he was very obsessed with a TV series called the Ming Dynasty, and at that time he knew little about the history of the Ming Dynasty, but he felt that everyone in the play was a group of masters, especially the emperor who cultivated all day long, and he was even more scheming.

So with curiosity, I searched for this Jiajing Emperor on the Internet, and I once browsed that in the fourteenth year of Jiajing, Empress Wuzong died of illness, and a large-scale etiquette dispute broke out between the court and China about the formulation of her nickname and funeral specifications.

From this, Xia Yuan knew that the queen of Ming Wuzong was originally surnamed Xia, and the record about her was even simpler, she was unknown during her lifetime, with the dignity of the queen, but she was not very favored, and she didn't even have a sense of existence at all, and this ceremonial battle after her death became her only moment to shine.

A very sad queen.

Thinking of this, Xia Yuan couldn't help but look at the room with the lamp, where there were two girls chatting happily.

If Xia Shu is really the Queen of Xia, should she find a way to stop this?
