Chapter 95: Brothers and Sisters
The county exam is stressful for teenagers.
Just as the spring breeze is steep,
Under the lively surface of the small Xingan County, there is a hidden turbulence.
On the teahouse facing the examination room.
The sound of the piano gradually crept into the boiling voice, and the person sitting in the box stretched out his hand to pick up the tea, and the collision between the lid of the cup and the edge of the bowl seemed to make a pleasant sound when the jade fell.
When the crowd dispersed, the man took his eyes off Jiang Jin, and the sound of the piano stopped abruptly.
A "crunch" sound of the door.
"My lord, Jiang Li is almost here, do you want her to come over?"
Lu Huangnian closed his eyes and leaned back, sighing, "Okay." ”
Before Jiang Yuanze found it, he didn't believe that the person who dared to touch this large amount of silver would be a seven-grade petty official.
A seven-rank petty official, who has concealed the prefect of the fourth grade, is ridiculous to say.
Layer by layer, layer by layer, it's just that the last problem has appeared in Jiang Yuanze's hands.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuanze is a person who understands current affairs, but he didn't let him work harder.
It stands to reason that he shouldn't have come to investigate the case this time, but he still begged the emperor.
Lu Huangnian raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, the turquoise luster reflected in his long eyelashes, "Did you find anything in the old mansion of Jiangfu?" ”
Although Jiang Yi became an official here more than ten years ago, what if Jiang Yi came back after being demoted.
What if the clue is hidden here?
He couldn't let go of any possibility. Even if it is a 1 in 10,000 win rate, he has to gamble.
"Nothing, the old mansion was taken over by the Zhu family after Jiang Ge Lao left."
"Zhujia?" Lu Huangnian's tone was full of doubt, "This time Jiang Jin's guarantor is wishing his family?" ”
"It is the second son of the Zhu family's big house, Zhu Kuang, enlightened by the old Jiangge, and now studying in the Mountain House Academy, in the ninth year of Wanqing, he will go to the capital to participate in the next year's examination."
"Do you notice anything?"
Lu Huangnian always felt that this Zhu Kuang was not simple.
The Zhu family is a big family, and the children of the Zhu family are the backbone of Dayan in the court.
Wise self-preservation?
I'm afraid it's not that simple.
He saw this person just now, and he looked rough on the outside, but if he was really a vulgar person, he wouldn't be able to get famous.
And why did you get in touch with Jiang Jin at this time?
Lu Huangnian turned his head and looked out the window at where Jiang Jin was just now, half of his face was submerged in the shadows.
His expression was indifferent, and his eyes were dyed with a bit of mockery, and the development of things became more and more interesting.
A person on a boat, of course he will not let go of Jiang Jin, even if he climbs, he has to climb to the capital.
"It's nothing, it wasn't until before the county test that the Jiang family contacted the Zhu family because of the guarantee, do you still need to keep an eye on it?"
Lu Huangnian nodded, "Just pay attention, the Wei family can't relax their vigilance." ”
"Don't worry, sir."
……
After a while, there was another knock on the door.
This time it was a woman with a bib on her head, covered in clothing.
She came in and knelt down with a "bang".
Lu Huangnian was behind the screen, and he didn't care what this person looked like.
He was able to see her because of her threats.
"My lord, the folk girl is willing to hand over the secret account to you and use it as a witness, I only hope that the adult can promise the folk girl one thing!"
Jiang Li's "bang", and his head fell directly to the ground, "Ask for the grace of the adult!" ”
Lu Huangnian rubbed his fingers with interest, "Tell me first, what's the matter?" ”
Jiang Li heard Lu Huangnian let go of his breath, and hurriedly said the draft in his stomach, "The folk girl has a younger brother, who has been cold for ten years, but for me, she gave up her career and did the wrong thing, and the folk girl doesn't expect him to have any achievements, I just hope that this matter can no longer affect him." ”
"In the future, because of the relationship between the people's daughter, the younger brother will definitely testify in court, but if he goes, his reputation will be completely ruined, and the people's daughter begs the adults to let him go."
Lu Huangnian raised his hand, and his index finger was against the peak of his eyebrows, "This matter, it seems, is a little difficult." ”
Jiang Li was puzzled.
Then I heard the door open again.
It's Li Lai.
He has long lost the vigor of a young man, and his weak bones are full of exhaustion.
"Your Excellency."
Lu Huangnian said softly, and listened to Li Lai's eloquent voice, "Sister, I'm fine, now I can still participate in the scientific examination, what if my reputation is bad?" This is the evil I have done myself, and I will bear it myself. ”
"But you're ...... for me" Jiang Li couldn't find her voice a little, she rubbed her knees forward twice, "My lord, don't listen to him, his future can't be ruined." ”
"Sister, isn't it also for my two taels of money to marry you off at home?"
Li Lai finally lowered his shoulders weakly, "This matter, after all, I am sorry for you......"
Jiang Li didn't squeak for a while.
She just looked at Li Lai blankly, "You have been cold for ten years, you shouldn't be like this." ”
"Sister, you are in the prime of your life, you shouldn't be like this, I'm growing up, I can protect you, it's not your fault, how can I push you out alone?"
Li Lai softened his voice, "From the beginning, our choices were wrong, it's not too late to turn back, karma, this is my retribution, do you think that if I succeeded at that time, wouldn't it be Jiang Jin who lost his future?" ”
Jiang Li was finally persuaded by Li.
Things have a beginning and an end, and these are all things that should be.
Lu Huangnian, who had not spoken all this time, opened his mouth and finally glanced over.
Nian Bei on the side noticed Lu Huangnian's emotions, so he spoke for him, "You don't have to be like this, this case is handled secretly, and it will be reported to the atrium, so you don't have to worry too much about Brother Ling's affairs, instead of complaining about yourself here, it is better to get the understanding of the parties." ”
"The imperial court has always been lenient to meritorious people, and your appeal will help you, and as for Brother Ling's future, you still need to fight for yourself."
Jiang Li was excited when she heard this, and she burst into tears directly, if it weren't for Lu Huangnian, she would definitely hug Li Lai's headache and cry like she did when she was a child!
Li Lai was not much excited.
"I have already insulted the Qinggao of the scholars, how dare I go to Bo Prospect again, wait for the end of the matter, and I will take my sister back to the mountains and forests, please rest assured."
Lu Huangnian didn't say anything.
He waved his hand, motioning for the two of them to leave their things behind and then leave.
He, he can't see this kind of brotherhood the most.
There was a dull pain in his temples, and the noise and laughter mixed with nursery rhymes buzzed in his head.
A steaming cauldron......
Dropped Red Bracelet ......
A weak "Brother, when are you coming back......"
Lu Huangnian's eyes were red, and he grabbed the tea cup on the table with one hand and smashed it towards the illusion in front of him!
With a "bang", the crystal tea cup was torn apart, just like him......
His chest was constantly rising and falling with emotion.
There is a period, there is a period......
Mr. gave him the word table, which means "and long Ling Fengxi, take spring has its own period".
However, his spring, which stopped with her in that famine year, will never come again.
