Chapter 7: Calyx Green
Since the princess of Yicheng, Li Chunjian, was placed under house arrest in Xilin Nunnery to cultivate, Li Chunjian had no more injustice, and could only work hard to help He Qingjian sell group fans.
"Qingji, your fan is so good-looking, why is no one patronizing." Li Chunjian sighed.
"Lady, many Jinling students are worshipping Calyx Green Jun!" Lu Yun came back from outside and shouted.
"Calyx Green, it's Jasmine's nickname, and what is Calyx Green?" Li Chunjian asked.
"His Royal Highness King Kang, the Calyx Green Jun in the population of Jinling, refers to Princess Antai. In that year, Princess Antai reopened the imperial examination in Jinling, added agricultural and mulberry subjects, and hand-picked champions, lists, and flowers, and the flowers rewarded were jasmine. Do you think you're a thing, or Princess Antai is a thing? When Lu Yun mentioned Princess Antai, her face was radiant.
"It's better to worship the green king, it's better to worship the Qingji. Qingzhi is very powerful, there is nothing she can't learn, only what she doesn't want to learn. Li Chunjian muttered.
At this time, Yuan Shan suddenly appeared.
"Mrs. He, can Xiaosheng borrow your penny jasmine to say goodbye?" Yuan Shan asked.
"Yuan Langjun, do the people of Jinling really respect Princess Antai so much? How did I hear that when Princess Antai established the Nanyan regime in Jinling, the people of Jinling looked forward to Princess Antai's surrender every day. Lu Yun said in annoyance.
"Some people like it, some people hate it. But when a person dies, her goodness is magnified. The champions, lists, and tanhuas who were hand-picked by Princess Antai were also accepted by His Majesty, and they also made political achievements and won a good name. Yuan Shan said with a smile.
"How do you usually worship the Calyx Green King?" He Qingji's tone was cold.
"After dusk, the moon first appeared, and the calyx green was blooming, and we bowed three times and knocked nine times to the calyx green." Yuan Shan said softly.
"Isn't that the imperial rite of three bows and nine bows?" Midori muttered.
"When did Jinling become popular?" He Qingji's tone became more and more condensed.
"After Princess Antai died in battle, it was probably two or three years ago." Yuan Shan replied.
"Yuan Langjun, the flowering period of the weeping jasmine is later than the autumn season, and it can't catch up. Or I'll make you a light blue silk jasmine butterfly pattern ebony handle fan, and you can bow down. He Qingzhen said in a low voice.
"No, that's a great disrespect to the Calyx Green King!" Yuan Shan shook his head vigorously.
"Yuan Langjun, my lady said that if she can, she will definitely be able to." Lu Yun sneered.
In the end, Yuan Shan compromised because he couldn't afford Jasmine.
After the autumn exams, there is a month to wait for the release of the results.
"Lady Luyun, can you help me talk to Mrs. He, I want a plain silk yarn and green bamboo handle fan to use to write a policy silently. Looking back, we, the students of Jinling, held a gathering at Yuenu Lake to comment on our respective strategies. Yuan Shanzuo said.
Lu Yun thought for a moment and agreed.
Then, He Qingjian presented Yuan Shan with a plain silk yarn and green bamboo handle fan.
One day, Yuan Shan came back drunk, and Lu Yun was already yawning.
"Your Highness, they all said that Xiaosheng's strategy is the first in Jinling." Yuan Shan's face turned red.
"Yuan Shan, in the future, the title of the gold list will be named, don't forget to borrow the grace of living, and always compensate for some silver." Li Chunjian smiled brighter than Yuan Shan.
Since being deprived of the royal palace and taxes, Li Chunjian has deeply felt the importance of money.
As soon as the words fell, Yuan Shan fell to the ground and fell asleep.
"Lady, I remember, Yuan Shan was the younger brother of Yuan Wen, the second-class legend of the year. However, in my impression, Yuan Shan has never seen you. Lu Yun returned to the bedroom with He Qingjian and lowered his voice.
"Ah Jun, I know." He Qingji's expression was indifferent.
The first time Yuan Shan came to visit the Song of Grievances, He Qingji recognized it. Back then, although Yuan Wen was a second-class teacher, he won He Qingji's appreciation because he was familiar with agriculture and water conservancy, and he was one of the few people who had seen He Qingji's true face. It's a pity that Yuan Wen fell into a scandal and fell off a cliff with the thin horse in Yangzhou.
"Lady, you have already died once, so don't get entangled with the old man." Lu Yun said in annoyance.
"Isn't Ah Jun an old man?" He Qingzhen laughed.
"Lady, I'm a dead man." Midori snorted.
"Green Dead Man, let's rest in peace." He Qingzhen quipped.
A month later, the Gongyuan released the list, and Li Chunjian wanted to see the excitement.
"Qingdi, Chongrenfang is currently crowded, the most lacking fan, we sell the kind of plain silk yarn green bamboo handle fan, which is not only convenient and cool, but also can be used for people to write poems and paint. Those students who fail to make the list always have all kinds of sadness, and maybe they will be sung for a while after they are written. Li Chunjian smiled innocently and harmlessly.
"My lady doesn't go, the smell of sweat is heavy!" Lu Yun crossed his hands on his waist and said in annoyance.
"Ah Yun, you misunderstood, how can this king be willing to suffer from Qingji. This king wants you to go with the basket feather, and after earning the money, remember to go to the outer building of the building and bring the flower cake to the Qing Ji. Li Chunjian's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, as if he was drunk but not drunk.
"Does His Royal Highness King Kang want to eat the flower cakes thoroughly?" He Qingjian said lightly, took out a handful of broken silver from his purse, and handed it to Li Chunjian.
Li Chunjian understood that He Qingjian was reluctant to let Lu Yun do coolies.
However, Lu Yun was curious about Yuan Shan's ranking, ran to Chongrenfang, and shook his head lightly when he came back, indicating that Yuan Shan had fallen off the list.
"Yuan Shan is off the list? Unlikely. Dean Yang also praised Yuan Shan's strategy, which was very useful for his current disadvantages and spicy rhetoric. Li Chunjian said in a low voice.
Li Chunjian paid attention to Yuan Shan, completely looking forward to Yuan Shan's gratitude in the future.
"Can His Royal Highness King Kang get Yuan Shan's strategy? Forget it, it looks like a lot of work. He Qingji returned to the yard and took care of the pot of flowering weeping jasmine.
The flowers drooped, white and elegant, just like the intuition of Yuan Wen when I first met him.
After Yuan Shan fell off the list, he didn't return overnight until bad people came to the door.
"What's going on?" Li Chunjian held his hands behind his shoulders, raised his chin slightly, and his beautiful peach blossom eyes put away the bright brilliance, bringing out the arrogance of the prince of two or three points.
"Back to His Royal Highness King Kang, Yuan Shan fell off the list, he was unwilling, and last night he gathered a group of Jinling students to make trouble in the Gongyuan, demanding that all the examination papers of this autumn festival be made public, and he also burned this year's laurel list." A bad guy clenched his fists.
Back then, He Qingjin reopened the imperial examination in Jinling, and those local families made even more ferocious trouble, and even spread rumors everywhere, saying that He Qingjin recruited a group of little white faces from poor families to face them. He Qingzhen has always had no sorrow or joy, and he made all the exam papers public and invited people from all over the world to judge.
Lu Yun felt that this time Qiu Yu was brewing a conspiracy, which was aimed at He Qingji.
After the bad guy left, Lu Yun pulled He Qingjian and whispered again.
"Lady, why don't we go to Luoyang." Lu Yun's brow furrowed.
"Ah Yun, most of them think that Lu Xiao is Princess Antai." He Qingzhen sighed lightly.
Lu Xiao is Lu Yun's sister Lu Xiao. The two were originally going to be sold to Yangzhou as thin horses by the gambling Aye, but they were later rescued by He Qingji's mother, one stayed by He Qingji's side, and the other pretended to be Princess Antai and endured a lot of assassinations.
In the end, Lu Xiao replaced He Qingzhen and died in the Battle of Jinling.
