Chapter 420: Meteorite Descends from the Sky

100,000 taels of gold is too valuable, so precious that Zhang Bairen wondered if he couldn't help but cut off his head to receive the reward.

With 100,000 taels of gold, basically you don't have to worry about eating and drinking for a few lifetimes, not only eating and drinking, but also the kind that spends all day eating and drinking without worrying.

"This price is too high, my head is definitely not worth 100,000 taels of gold" Zhang Bairen shook his head.

"Sir is so young, but he tossed such a big thing, your head is not only 100,000 taels of gold in the eyes of this palace, but it is not too much to be worth a lot of money" Empress Xiao looked at Zhang Bairen with a smile.

This time Zhang Bairen was really anxious: "Niangniang, you have to help me." ”

100,000 taels of gold is definitely not a joke, there are too many people who want 100,000 taels of gold, from seeing that God is not bad, down to the peddlers and pawns, as long as there is a chance, anyone will carry Zhang Bairen's head to receive the reward.

"This palace wants to help you, but now this palace doesn't know how to help you" Queen Xiao looked at Zhang Bairen with a pair of eyes, her eyes were full of helplessness: "You will walk to a crowded place in the future, and ordinary people will never dare to touch you if they don't have the courage, but you are also a member of the court, representing the face of the court." ”

After listening to Queen Xiao's words, Zhang Bairen had 10,000 four-legged sheep running over in his heart, sitting there sullenly, Qiao Yan walked in with a bowl of bird's nest outside the door, winked at Zhang Bairen, and then turned to leave.

"Come, taste the newly blended bird's nest in the palace" Queen Xiao came to Zhang Bairen with the bird's nest, Zhang Bairen took the bird's nest and ate it in his mouth like chewing wax, although the taste was varied, but he didn't have the heart to taste it.

Empress Xiao shook her head: "Don't worry, with your ability, who can take your head?"

Zhang Bairen blinked, who wouldn't say big words, but this matter is related to his own life, how can he not be worried?

Looking at Zhang Bairen, Empress Xiao's eyes blinked: "Don't worry, this palace has already told Your Majesty that after the imperial examination is completed, I will let you retreat and cultivate, and when you feel sure that you can save your life, it is not too late to come out again." As for the period of the imperial examination, Shangjing is now on strict guard, and it is still very safe, and no one dares to make trouble at this time without opening their eyes. ”

"It's also a note" Zhang Bairen is now in the hall of the four swords of Zhuxian, and after comprehending the sword diagram of Zhuxian, he can be regarded as truly beginning to grasp the mystery of the four swords of Zhuxian.

"Now that the imperial examination is held for the first time, the Confucian Confucians have already worked out the procedure, and you are the chief examiner of this imperial examination, responsible for the first invigilation" Empress Xiao took out an edict in her hand.

Zhang Bairen was stunned: "The imperial examination has a lot to do with it, how can I be in charge of the scientific examination?"

"The ministers of the DPRK and the central government are deliberately backtesting, there are countless people who are mixed, most of the ministers are disconnected from the family, Your Majesty is not at ease to hand over the scientific examination, if the gate valve family is called to control the imperial examination, what is the meaning of the scientific examination?" Empress Xiao sighed lightly: "You and the other three Confucians are invigilated together, and reliable people suppress it, there will be someone secretly making trouble, you are decisive and everyone in the world can see it, there is no more suitable for the scientific examination than you." ”

Zhang Bairen remembered Zhang's mother's words, Zhang's mother actually hoped that she could win the civil and military champion, and now she didn't get the civil and military champion, but she became an official who assessed the champion, and I don't know what Zhang's mother will think after she knows it.

After taking the edict and slowly looking at it, Zhang Bairen said: "There are no loopholes in the imperial examination regulations, but I am afraid that the gate valve family will do something in secret." ”

"It doesn't matter, the military aircraft secret palace has already been dispatched, and the bodies of all the soldiers who enter Beijing to take the exam must be checked clearly, and nothing is missing," Empress Xiao said.

"That's good, the official will go to prepare for the imperial examination" Zhang Bairen and Empress Xiao saluted, stood up and turned to leave.

As soon as he walked out of the main hall, a gust of fragrant wind hit, Qiaoyan was wearing tulle, standing behind the pillar and waving her hand to Zhang Bairen.

Seeing this, Zhang Bairen smiled and walked over, Qiao Yan took out a palm-sized wine jar from behind, and saw that no one was prepared and stuffed into Zhang Bairen's arms: "This is an eight-hundred-year-old flower carving, I heard that you like to drink, and I secretly hid an altar when Your Majesty feasted last time." ”

Zhang Bairen's hairs stood up when he heard this, this girl is too bold, the eight-hundred-year-old flower carving is afraid that it is more expensive than gold, if someone catches it, he will have to lose his head.

It seemed to see that Zhang Bairen was worried, Qiao Yan said: "A few days ago, the papermaking technique was successful, and the fortune of the Great Sui skyrocketed, Your Majesty was happy to come to Yong'an Palace to get drunk with Niangniang, they were all drunk, and I didn't know if I hid an altar." ”

Touching the wine jar on his chest, Zhang Bairen's eyes bent into crescent moons: "How many are the eight-hundred-year-old flower carvings in the palace?"

Qiao Yan shook her head: "This is the last altar, His Majesty Ping Suli is reluctant to drink it, that is, this time he is so happy that he took it out to celebrate." ”

Looking at Qiaoyan who had beads of sweat on his face, Zhang Bairen touched it in his sleeve, a blue bead, about the size of a bull's eye: "This bead is for you, as long as you wear this bead, it will be warm in winter and cool in summer. ”

"This ...... This is too precious, the slave maid can't ask for it" Looking at the beads in Zhang Bairen's hand, Qiao Yan shook her head again and again.

"What slave, you will be my sister in the future, my own sister, and I will find an opportunity to redeem you from the palace in the future, and save yourself as this caged bird" Zhang Bairen stuffed the beads into Qiao Yan's hand.

Qiao Yan couldn't refuse, holding the beads with a smile on her face, Zhang Bairen muttered: "I don't know if there is a thousand-year-old wine syrup in the palace." ”

"The son is exempt, the mother treats me well, how can I leave the mother, my relatives in the family have long been separated, and the only relative is the mother" Qiao Yan looked at Zhang Bairen with a pair of eyes: "It is said that there is really a thousand years of wine syrup in the palace, but don't think about it, even Your Majesty is reluctant to drink it." ”

Zhang Bairen's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he patted Qiao Yan on the shoulder: "I'll go first, and I still have some things to deal with." ”

After finishing speaking, Zhang Bairen turned around and left, and Qiao Yan stood at the pillar with the beads in her hands, tears slowly sliding down her eyes.

"Alas!" a sigh sounded, and Empress Xiao appeared behind Qiao Yan.

"Niangniang" Qiao Yan hurriedly lowered her head and saluted.

"I think of your brother again," Empress Xiao's eyes were full of emotion.

"My younger brother died because of the slave, and the slave and maid were not at ease," Qiao Yan said.

"Alas, the past is over, what do you want her to do" Empress Xiao touched Qiaoyan's head.

Walking out of the palace, standing outside the gate and looking at the princes and ministers passing by in the distance, as well as the passing merchants, Zhang Bairen was excited, and he only felt that everyone's eyes were not right, and everyone seemed to be aiming at their necks.

"One hundred thousand taels of gold, these gate valve families are too ruthless, even Yu Juluo's head may not be worth one hundred thousand taels of gold" After speaking, Zhang Bairen got into the carriage and said to the Xiao family brothers who were standing in front of the car: "Go back to the mansion." ”

"Chengnan or Zhangfu?" Xiaohu said.

"Of course it's Zhang's Mansion, the royal manor in the south of the city is not in the city, and the official always feels unsteady in his heart" Zhang Bairen shook his head.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a burst of people outside, and the sound of crying rolled up in an instant, and countless people rushed to flee, Zhang Bairen suddenly jumped up and jumped out of the carriage.

"Your Excellency!"

The Xiao brothers roared sadly, only to hear a 'bang', the carriage instantly turned to ash, the high temperature melted the rocks, and a ten-meter-deep pit appeared on the ground, and a black stone like a charcoal fire flickered in the pit, emitting green smoke.

"My lord!" the Xiao brothers cried as they stood outside the pit.

"What are you crying wolf and howling, you two guys can escape, how can I be stoned to death" Zhang Bairen walked out of the crowd with palpitations, if he hadn't shrunk into an inch and made great progress, I was afraid that he would not have survived this time.

"My lord, you're not dead, it's good if you're okay" The Xiao family brothers cried with joy, if Zhang Bairen was killed by a meteorite falling from the sky, the Xiao family brothers would definitely have bad luck, and with Yu Juluo's temper, they might have to be buried with two brothers.

"This meteorite is a good thing, find someone to salvage it and forge weapons" Zhang Bairen disappeared into the crowd: "But this meteorite came too coincidentally, I just left the palace, and I happened to be hit by a meteorite, which is too exaggerated." ”

In the crowd in the distance, several men in robes looked at Zhang Bairen who disappeared into the crowd, you look at me, I look at you, and said with an ugly face: "This is not dead?"
