Chapter 197: Traces (1)
At the end of the spring of this year, after thwarting another attack by the Xiongnu and allowing the Huns to retreat without a fight, the people of Liangjing welcomed the returning soldiers.
With the successive victories of the Great Zhou Dynasty in internal and external affairs, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty have completely surrendered to Emperor Jingwen of this dynasty, and they are even more proud of having such an emperor.
Everyone felt that under the leadership of Emperor Jingwen, the Great Zhou would definitely create a once-in-a-century prosperous era.
The returning soldiers rode high-headed horses, hung silk flowers, and immediately attracted a cheer where they passed, and from time to time there were young girls who threw the handkerchief hairpin in their hands at these soldiers, and the enthusiasm was incomparable, and it also made the cheeks of these soldiers black and red.
Of course, there are not only young girls among these greeting people, but also many scholars, because in a few days, Enke will begin, and many scholars have already gone to Liangjing, ready to show their skills in Enke, and follow the young emperor to show his ambitions.
Although Enko's date is getting progressive, and their time is getting tighter and tighter, for them, if they don't even participate in such a grand event, won't reading become a piece of paper.
At this time, the spring in Liangjing is just right, and they can justifiably take a holiday for themselves, anyway, everyone is resting, and they can also reduce the so-called entanglement of one and the other.
However, although the majority of scholars hold this thought, there are also a small number of scholars who really ignore what is going on outside the window and only read the books of the sages.
On such a day when the whole country celebrates, they still live in their own little world, studying hard, and they really feel a little nerd.
For example, the tenant in a house of Lao Liu's family in Liangjing Needlenose Hutong seems to be such a "nerd", this "nerd" has been studying hard behind closed doors every day for the past few days, and even rarely goes out at the courtyard gate, and occasionally goes out to buy some necessities.
The old Liu's house was behind his house, which was originally his family's old house, and later he made money from a small business, so he bought a big house behind it, and the whole family moved in.
And because Mr. Feng Shui said that the small mansion was their family's feng shui treasure land, he was not willing to sell it, so he simply rented it to the students who went to Beijing to take the exam, which can be regarded as letting this feng shui treasure land be stained with some sage spirit.
In the spring of this year, just when the students went to Beijing to take the exam, a scholar rented this place from him, and the rent was for a year.
This makes Lao Liu a little strange, because the spring festival only started a month later, and this student actually rented it for a year, saying that it is good to be prepared, and saying that it is bad to say that it is not enough to curse himself that he can't go to high school, and is he ready to live in this small house?
But strange to be strange, Lao Liu still rented it to him, and even reduced the rent because of his long lease term.
But when he first rented it to him, this scholar seemed to be rarely at home, and often went out for a long time, never seeing him study, let alone attending some student gatherings held in Liangjing City.
This made Lao Liu have a feeling that this scholar was afraid that he didn't come to Kaoenke at all, but seemed to want to settle in Liangjing.
But the people who came to settle in Liangjing were either businessmen or wealthy families with some family backgrounds, and this scholar looked like a scholar, not like these two people at all...... This made Lao Liu even more strange.
