Sending Pei Xuan away, Zhu Qingchen began to annotate the articles sent by the students.

The little servant was on the side and helped him grind ink and make tea.

There are a lot of articles sent, but Zhu Qingchen didn't do it perfunctory, but read it carefully word by word.

As he wrote, he raised his left hand, the sleeve of his shirt slipped down, and he picked up a piece of mung bean cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

The little guy smiled and pushed the dim sum to his side: "Master, eat more." ”

"Hmm." Zhu Qingchen swallowed the dim sum and asked casually, "These students are not students of the Academy?" ”

The little servant replied: "If you are a student of the school palace, you don't have to wait for the master to rest and ask for a meeting." ”

Zhu Qingchen paused for a moment, and asked again: "The school palace does not accept ordinary people?" ”

"It's not that you don't take it, too. Emperor Zu received it when he first opened the country, but now it is ...... The more the bundle is collected, only the powerful can afford it. ”

"I see."

Ordinary people are poor, but they have never been able to reach such a figure as a scholar, so they can only crowd in front of the door day after day, waiting for the summons.

In the original book, Pei Xuan was □□ so far on the eve of the palace exam, and in the end, he didn't do it, but was punished, and I think there is also this reason.

He is weak, he doesn't even have a decent teacher, and he doesn't even have a few good classmates, who will avenge him?

I'm afraid no one even knows what happened to him.

This is not Pei Xuan's unjust case, it is a disaster that all poor students may encounter.

Zhu Qingchen sighed, stretched out his hand again, and took another piece of dim sum to stuff it into his mouth.

The little guy hurriedly stopped him: "Master, it's wrong, it's wrong!" This is the ink ingot, this is the dim sum! ”

"Oh." Zhu Qingchen came back to his senses, put down the ink ingot, thought about it, and put down the pen as well, "I'm tired." ”

The little servant said: "Master, the little one is going to pass lunch." ”

Zhu Qingchen stretched: "Let's go out to eat, didn't Pei Xuan's family open a wine shop?" Go and see him. ”

The little guy smiled and said, "Yes, the little one is going to set up the carriage." ”

*

Zhu Qingchen changed into plain green casual clothes, because it was winter, and he also wrapped a fox fur cloak and a sleeved hand stove.

The little guy was catching the car outside, because the carriage was hung with a wooden sign of "Zhu Xueguan's Mansion", and everyone else knew that it was Zhu Xueguan's carriage, and some students presented articles and begged him for guidance.

I wish Qingchen to accept them one by one and ask them to pick them up from the school official mansion three days later.

Walking all the way and stopping all the way, out of the city, Zhu Qingchen hurriedly asked the little servant to take down the wooden sign hanging on the carriage.

If you continue to grind like this, you won't be able to get to Pei's Distillery after dark.

The little servant said: "Master is not in a hurry, he is almost there." ”

Zhu Qingchen leaned forward, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and looked out.

"Where there is a wine flag in front, it is Pei's Wine Workshop......"

Before the little guy could finish speaking, suddenly, a team of horses rushed out of the road ahead.

Five or six sons of the magnates, who had just returned from the safari, were all carrying longbows on their backs, and hares and pheasants and other prey on their horses, and they were in high spirits.

Not only Zhu Qingchen was taken aback, but their horses were also taken aback.

"Phew—"

The horse neighs and the two front hooves are raised.

The little servant held the reins and admonished, "Master, sit tight! ”

The children of the powerful were not clean in their mouths: "The thing that doesn't have long eyes collided with His Royal Highness King Jing, how many lives do you have to pay for?" ”

Zhu Qingchen sat in the carriage, reacted, hurriedly lifted the curtain of the carriage, and helped the little servant pull the reins.

The carriage stopped, Zhu Qingchen raised his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "I only have one life, is it enough to compensate?" ”

Seeing that it was Zhu Qingchen, they stopped, exchanged a look, hurriedly dismounted, and bowed: "Master...... I have seen the Master. ”

Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher, they are still afraid of Zhu Qingchen.

Zhu Qingchen lowered his eyes and looked at them.

I just heard them say "respect the king", and I thought that the person at the front was Jing Wang.

Jing Wang has long been disobedient, but in front of the master, even if he is reluctant, he must make a respectful appearance.

King Jing also bowed down and saluted, but he was not so flustered: "Master, when I returned from the safari, I accidentally bumped into my master, please forgive me." ”

Zhu Qingchen replied lightly: "Hmm." ”

King Jing glanced at the Pei's wine shop not far away: "I'm about to go to the wine shop to rest, do you want to go along?" As soon as he got some prey, he was supposed to make amends for his master's sins. ”

Zhu Qingchen frowned slightly.

It turned out that King Jing was eyeing Pei Xuan at this time.

"Okay." Zhu Qingchen got out of the carriage, saw the blood marks on the palms of the little servant's hands cut by the reins, and said to King Jing, "When you go out hunting, you should bring the wound medicine with you?" ”

"Yes." King Jing turned his head to look at his companion, who hurriedly took off the wound medicine hanging on the horse and offered it with both hands.

"Master, but he's hurt?"

Zhu Qingchen didn't answer, but just handed the wound medicine to the little guy and asked him to take some medicine.

King Jing's face was slightly gloomy, but he quickly adjusted and followed Zhu Qingchen's side.

The group came to Pei's Wine Workshop, and everyone shouted: "Come on! ”

Pei Xuan was settling accounts on the counter, and when he heard someone shouting, he hurriedly put down his abacus and ran out of the wine shop.

"Here, a few sons......" Pei Xuan's eyes lit up when he saw Zhu Qingchen, and he hurriedly leaned over and saluted, "I wish the master." ”

Zhu Qingchen smiled at him: "Passing by here, come and have a look." ”

"Master, please." Pei Xuan turned sideways, and then he saw King Jing, and also saluted, "His Royal Highness King Jing." ”

King Jing replied lightly: "Come back from hunting, deal with the prey." ”

"Yes." Pei Xuan stepped forward, rolled up his sleeves, and took the prey off the horse.

Where the arrow hit, there was still blood dripping.

Pei Xuan pinched the neck of the pheasant and hare: "I'll go to the backyard to deal with it, so as not to dirty the eyes of the master and the sons." ”

Pei Xuan entered the backyard and asked his mother to come out to greet the guests.

Pei Xuan's mother's surname is Chen, and everyone else calls her Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen learned about Zhu Qingchen's identity from Pei Xuan, and she was grateful, and specially arranged a location in the middle of the wine shop for him, close to the stove, which was relatively warm.

I gave him a pot of wine, and the meat and vegetables had to wait a little longer, so I prepared some snacks for him and padded his stomach first.

Mrs. Chen wiped her hands vigorously on her apron and pushed the dim sum forward: "I wish the master to eat more, eat more." ”

Zhu Qingchen responded with a smile: "Okay, thank you." ”

She stood aside and looked at Zhu Qingchen eagerly, Zhu Qingchen ate two pieces of snacks and nodded at her: "It's delicious." ”

She breathed a sigh of relief, a natural smile on her face.

Zhu Qingchen said: "You don't have to stand here, go get busy, I'll talk to the students." ”

"Okay, I'll go and help Ah Xuan, the master and the sons eat slowly, and tell me if there is something."

Zhu Qingchen watched her leave, his eyes moved slightly, and he asked the system: "After Pei Xuan's accident, how happened to Mrs. Chen?" ”

"I'll look it up." The system was silent for a while, "Pei Xuan was exiled to the frontier, and Mrs. Chen received the news, and she was so anxious that she couldn't afford to be sick, and she relied on her neighbors to take care of her and barely survive." ”

"Later, in order to win over Pei Xuan, King Jing hid from Pei Xuan and took Chen Niangzi from the capital to the border, and her condition worsened."

"Later, King Jing's rebellion was successful, Pei Xuan knew the truth about the destruction of the palace test, went crazy, was beaten into the cold palace, and King Jing also threatened him with Chen Niangzi."

"What?!" Zhu Qingchen opened his eyes.

"It's—" The system read a passage to him in an electronic voice, "'Your mother is still waiting for you at the border, and if you die of illness, I won't take her back.'" You and your mother are separated, and you can't see each other when you die. ’”

"The author said that this is because King Jing loves Pei Xuan too much, and he is arousing Pei Xuan's desire to survive."

Normal people arouse the patient's desire to survive: your mother is still waiting for you at the border! You've got to hold on! Hang on!

Abnormal people arouse the patient's desire to survive: Your mother is going to die, haha! You're going to die too, haha! You can't see each other even if you're dead, hahaha!

Zhu Qingchen: ?

At this time, Jing Dynasty raised his glass: "Master." ”

"Huh?" Zhu Qingchen came back to his senses and picked up his cup.

King Jing said with a smile: "The student is only a shallow learner, and since he left the palace the year before last, he has never dared to forget the grace of the master's teachings. ”

Zhu Qingchen's expression was faint: "Really?" ”

"Today, I rode the horse and accidentally collided with the master, the wine shop is simple, and the coarse tea and light rice are really rude. In the coming day, I will go on a safari again, and then I will have a formal banquet for the master, and invite several other scholars to accompany me and make amends to the master. ”

"Okay."

King Jing drank all the wine in the cup, and Zhu Qingchen took a sip.

He doesn't know how to drink, the fruit wine is weak, the entrance is fragrant, and it's still good.

King Jing looked at Zhu Qingchen: "Master Zhu is so young and brilliant, teaching students to take the exam to gain fame, why don't you take the exam?" ”

Zhu Qingchen said lightly: "I had no intention of pursuing a career. ”

"I see." King Jing said, "It's just that the master is so talented, if he doesn't become an official or an official, he will inevitably be buried." ”

"Teaching students, not burying." Zhu Qingchen said, Chinese"If there are one or two courtiers who have been instructed by me, behave properly, and be upright, in the gap between the country and the people, they can think of me for a moment, and they will not be buried." ”

King Jing did not answer.

Zhu Qingchen looked at him: "I am also the teacher of the prince, the prince is in a high position, and he should be merciful and compassionate to the old and act upright." ”

"Nature." King Jing responded on the one hand, but turned his head away, picked up the wine jug, and filled the wine for himself and Zhu Qingchen, "I will never forget the master's teachings." ”

Zhu Qingchen raised his head and drank all the fruit wine in the cup.

That's all he has to say.

Now that nothing has happened, if he really listens to Zhu Qingchen's words, he will stop and not bully Pei Xuan, and they will be fine.

If he hadn't listened to Zhu Qingchen's words and insisted on using that disgusting method to practice Pei Xuan, Zhu Qingchen would not let him go.

At this time, Pei Xuan came up with a pot: "Here, chicken stew mushrooms." This son, thank you for letting me, thank you. ”

Zhu Qingchen raised his head, a little shocked and a little surprised.

The system was also shocked: "Why did he bring the whole pot up?" This was just prryed off the stove, right? ”

With a bang, Pei Xuan put the pot on the stove made of stones for heating.

Zhu Qingchen was taken aback by him.

The pot was steaming hot, and the chicken and mushrooms were mixed together and bubbling. The small green vegetables are in a circle, and the dough is still attached to the side of the pot.

Today, there are two distinguished guests, one is the teacher who instructs his articles, and the other is the prince who often takes care of their family's business.

The stove is lower than the table, so guests can't squat down to serve the food themselves.

Pei Xuan rolled up his sleeves, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, squatted down by the stove, sandwiched two mushrooms, two small green vegetables, and a few pieces of chicken, piled them full, and finally pried off a piece of dough from the side of the pot, covered it, and handed it to Zhu Qingchen: "I've been waiting for a long time, the master will eat first." ”

"Good ......" Zhu Qingchen took the dishes and chopsticks tremblingly, "I have a heart, thank you." ”

Pei Xuan smiled, picked up the dishes and chopsticks in front of King Jing, and gave him vegetables.

Zhu Qingchen called the system in his heart: "Woo, system, I feel like it's going to fall!" ”

"Wait a minute, I'll see if there's a retainer in the mall."

"Hurry up, I can't take it!"

The system looked at the ski bindings, lumbar spine bindings and bedside bindings in the mall, and fell into deep thought, which one should it buy?
