In the afternoon of the same day, two thunderous news in succession exploded in Zhongjing.

Concubine Shu was punished for thinking behind closed doors for half a year, during which she was forbidden to visit her relatives.

This made everyone's jaws drop in shock who were extremely optimistic about Concubine Shu in the battle for the back position.

When Concubine De went to Surabaya Prefecture, she was about to make a special honor without accident, and her political prestige skyrocketed, Concubine Shu was locked up and confined.

Has this balance of power changed as a result of the trade-off?

There are also some people who talk about it, the two favorite concubines, Concubine De is not there, Concubine Shu is locked up, won't Your Majesty be lonely?

Then, the second news was even more shocking.

The eldest son of the Lu family, the third among the sons of the lineage, and the highest official position in the younger generation, Shi Lu Fengyuan, the governor of Surabaya, was jointly announced by the head of the Lu family, Lu Rusong, who was the British duke, and the clan elders to expel him from the family tree.

For the people at that time, this was something even more terrifying than killing their heads, and they were all lonely ghosts when they died.

But that's what the Lu family did, and the second room, which was supposed to come out to make a fuss, was muffled and didn't let out a fart.

Those with smarter brains guessed that most of them were going on in Surabaya Prefecture.

As for the top forces that are really like the Lu family or even higher, they have got the news one after another, and they are suddenly a little more afraid of the mediocre and incompetent Majesty who seems to have accumulated too much money in the court.

Under the impact of the two news one after another, the news that the British Gong Lu Rusong went to the bamboo forest was not so eye-catching.

Just when Lu Rusong was traveling lightly, carrying gifts in person, and heading to the bamboo forest, a man came out day and night, and came to a Zhuangzi outside Zhongjing City.

After a complicated verification process, he made his way to a large study in the backyard.

In the study, there is a large wall, on which the whole world is mapped.

More than half of them have detailed and accurate content.

It is hard to imagine what kind of strength the owner of this picture has in this world.

Such a picture, any courtier in the court, who hid it in his house, would be immediately designated as a thief, but the man was not surprised at all, just looked at the white-clothed back who stood in front of the map with his hand in his hand and looked at the map in a daze.

He knelt down on one knee, "My lord, my subordinates are incompetent, and they haven't done their full work." ”

The man in white didn't look back, and said calmly: "Jiang Yuhu made a move, no wonder you." Get up. ”

The man stood with his hands down and echoed: "I didn't expect him to hide behind and come to Surabaya Prefecture, and we failed to succeed on both lines." ”

"It is up to man to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. Since Jiang Yuhu has gone, this defeat is inevitable, and he has an absolute superiority in strength. ”

The man said: "If the lord's plan can be launched, let the lord get the opportunity to lead the troops to clear the rebellion in Surabaya Prefecture, then hold the military power, and run Surabaya Prefecture for a year and a half, it may not be impossible to wrestle with him in terms of troops!" ”

"I've never fantasized about things that weren't meant to happen."

The man in white stretched out a slender white finger and gently slid across the entire territory of Surabaya Prefecture, "It's just that you think that if we didn't deliberately guide the Zheng family father and son to adopt our strategy and take that seemingly shortcut to prepare for our next lead the troops to clear up, but directly let them do their best to kill the soldiers of the county and coerce the bandits to start an incident, can it become a prairie fire?" ”

The man thought for a while, "The Zheng family's father and son have limited talents, especially for military affairs, and their subordinates are more bewitched before they make up their minds to start an incident." If according to the lord's words, it may be able to make a big noise at the beginning, gathering more than 10,000 troops or more, but the next 6,000 soldiers do not need to throw rat traps in order to protect the powerful, let go of the fight, and they will be able to quickly suppress it, in fact, there is no danger of this situation. ”

The man in white nodded slowly, and seemed to confirm his thoughts, "It's okay, two fools who are stupid and talented, and if they are gone, they will be gone, it's a pity." I'm glad you can get back as soon as you see the opportunity. ”

The man laughed, "However, it is not so easy to get so many fools together." It's a pity that Surabaya Prefecture has painstakingly planned a good situation. ”

"Do what you want, follow the trend, don't force it, you will be anxious if you are impatient, and you will make mistakes if you are anxious."

The man in white smiled, "And it's wrong." There are many fools in the world, it depends on whether you can arouse their inner desires, find out their hidden worries, and you can play them in the palm of your hand. ”

"Is it like the lord playing with the concubine?"

"Be careful with your words. Although I don't reject it, I'll wait until this play is successful. ”

"The Lord has taught you yes. In the future, the lord will be able to achieve great things, and the concubines and concubines are all playthings. ”

"Hey!" The man in white suddenly sighed and said affectionately: "Speaking of which, in order to protect me, Qingluan actually chose to commit suicide and ordered someone to prepare a pot of wine. ”

"Yes! Lord! ”

When the man left, the man in white pinched a small flag, held it in his hand and said to himself, "Then where will this son fall next?" ”

After looking around the picture, his eyes lit up, "That's it!" The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, and it is suitable to use it again. ”

——

Since Concubine De left, Xia Jingyun slept in the Su Mansion for a day, and slept for a night.

After a whole day and a night, he cleaned up and went to the state school with Su Shidao.

Li Tianfeng has already gained a firm foothold in the state city, and it is naturally not difficult to solve a small state school position.

But what people didn't expect was that Su Shidao rejected the proposal, and still just became a professor who devoted himself to studying, which made a group of Confucians laugh at him for being pedantic, and also made many people who still yearn for and respect scholars admire him more and more.

Although Su Shidao did not sit in the position of the state school, Xia Jingyun's admission procedures were completed smoothly all the way, and no one dared to make any long-sighted difficulties.

After all, the proud son of heaven who used to be in the state school is still sitting in the prisoner car going to Zhongjing City at the moment!

In a curious and somewhat fearful look, Xia Jingyun walked silently, listening to Su Shidao introduce him to the situation in the state school.

"Gao Yang!"

An excited and happy voice sounded, Xia Jingyun smiled and turned his head, seeing Xu Dapeng trotting briskly.

He smiled and arched his hand, "Brother Boyi! ”

"Oh, I've finally got you!" Xu Dapeng smiled and took his hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to have a look!" ”

Su Shidao twisted his beard and smiled: "It's just right, the old man is also happy to be idle." Gao Yang, after reading it, come to the teaching house to find a teacher. ”

"Yes, Teacher."

As soon as Su Shidao left, among the rest of the people, some people also had the courage to surround him.

Among them is Zeng Jimin, a scholar from Jiang'an County who has had a relationship.

As for Lin Feibai, the grandson of the top Confucian, he didn't see a trace, thinking that he was reserved.

Xia Jingyun did not have the arrogance he imagined, this person who has been called the first son of the new Surabaya Prefecture by good deeds, is approachable, kind and kind, so that many ordinary students in the state school are like a spring breeze, and they have won a good impression.

"Brother Gao Yang, this is our teaching house, and we study here on weekdays. We only have the outer house and the inner house here, it is said that Taixue has more tricks, there are outer houses, inner houses, and the inner houses are divided into upper houses and lower houses. ”

There are many tricks, all of them.

"Brother Gao Yang, you see, this is our dormitory, which is also divided into inner and outer dormitories."

"Ahem, I probably won't live in the dormitory."

"Oh~" Everyone coaxed meaningfully and enviously.

"I almost forgot, Brother Gao Yang is like this, there must be no shortage of admirers, wouldn't it be nice to read at night with red sleeves!"

Xia Jingyun smiled and teased: "Is it reading or red sleeves that are fast?" ”

"It's fast to be combined!"

Listening to the words of the tiger and wolf, Xia Jingyun silently gave a thumbs up, it seems that no matter what age it is, a group of young people with strong hormones are locked together, and these things are always indispensable in their minds.

After going around in the state school and understanding a general situation, Xia Jingyun said goodbye to everyone and went to Su Shidao.

It's not that he doesn't want to invite guests, but now that autumn is coming, he can't delay everyone's learning.

And everyone is actually a curiosity and friendship, if it really affects their preparation for the exam, I am afraid that there are many people who are unwilling.

After he left, seven or eight young men in the inner house, who were obviously dressed up and above the others, looked at the direction he left, and obviously disdainful.

"A lucky man who relies on his own broken skills, what is there to be angry about."

"That's it, I'm from a family background, several generations of wealth, how can it not be worse than this kind of goods, a group of people with eyes and no beads!"

"Well, you can take care of what they do, and go drinking."

After speaking, a group of people, escorted by a few idle guards, left the state school and found a restaurant to drink and have fun.

Xia Jingyun chatted with Su Shidao for a while, took a few books, and went back to Su Mansion.

On the wide avenue, there are especially many girls with slippery hands today.

Just falling in front of Xia Jingyun, there are sachets, sachets, and sachets.

My Fair Lady, Gentleman.

Handsome gentleman, lady also wants to start!

Xia Jingyun understands this heart, but his strength does not allow it now, so he has been walking calmly.

It wasn't until a stick propping up the window fell in front of his eyes, and when he looked up, a beautiful woman on the second floor looked at him apologetically and shyly, and he finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Stand up and flee.

Two days later, the chief examiner arrived, the Gongyuan was closed and cleaned up, and the footsteps of Qiu Yu really sounded in the ears of a group of readers.

And also
