Chapter 36 Chromophobia
Li Jiangnan is another civil official sent to Zhou Meiyu by the King of Jiangxia, and his ability is on par with Bai Leshan, but he is not as beautiful as Bai Leshan in appearance, nor as white as him.
But Li Jiangnan is a very man, how to behave?
First, he loves beauties and messes with flowers everywhere. Originally, he served in the Ministry of War, but because he molested the daughter of the former prime minister, he was casually found by the prime minister to match his hair with northern Xinjiang. However, his luck was not bad, and when he was moving bricks to repair the city, he met the king of Jiangxia who was patrolling, so he went to the side of the king of Jiangxia to be a minister.
Second, he has some martial arts, especially worth mentioning, his accuracy is very good, and the secret weapon makes it extremely good, sometimes Zhou Meiyu himself can't compare to him. However, Zhou Meiyu, who has always had a strong desire to win, didn't care about this, because she felt that the secret weapon was not a doorway to enter the stream, and it was not an assassination, so there was no need for that. But Li Jiangnan is proud of this.
Now that Li Jiangnan is not by Zhou Meiyu's side, Bai Leshan is stumbling again, Zhou Meiyu understands that this pervert Li Jiangnan must have been wandering around, and he fell in love with which palace maid, and he was not afraid of death and couldn't pull it off on others.
Bai Leshan said: "General, this is the palace anyway, do you want to remind Li Jiangnan, um...... Let him be a little more restrained?"
"Remind him of what? Anyway, when someone finds out, it's not as simple as distribution. Zhou Meiyu rolled her eyes and said.
Sure enough, it is the most poisonous woman's heart. Bai Leshan didn't dare to say anything, so he just followed Zhou Meiyu and walked in the direction of Qujiang Pavilion.
Qujiang Pavilion is already lively. The new scholars have already entered, but those scholars are a little restrained, except for saluting and congratulating each other, there is no superfluous action, but there are officials with heads and faces around, talking and pointing in the open and secret.
Zhou Meiyu's position was not far from His Majesty's position, and it was not conspicuous to sit in the back row.
The Qujiang Pavilion is located in a corner of the spacious Imperial Garden, and even if it is only a corner, it is enough to accommodate two hundred people. The pavilion is surrounded by all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and the fragrance is strong but not strong, which can very induce Wensi. It is facing a two-foot-high observation deck, from which you can see almost all parts of the capital.
In the middle of the Qujiang banquet there is a small stream in the loop, which is already lined with delicacies, wines, pastries and fruits. These delicate foods will flow with the water and flow in front of the jinshi.
Originally, Zhou Meiyu still felt fresh, but later I heard Bai Leshan say that those new science and technology scholars needed to write poems on the spot to get wine and food on it, so they lost interest and scolded: "What a broken game, I won't play if you ask me to play!"
His Majesty was belatedly supported by the Crown Prince.
In fact, His Majesty is not yet fifty years old, and he is not yet old enough to go out and ask for help. It's just that a while ago, I dreamed that the Queen Mother said that she wanted Emperor Zhaoyang to accompany the Taimiao, and my heart became more and more unhappy, and I was sick. Now that he had not recovered from his illness, the prince had put him out.
Zhou Meiyu followed the crowd and shouted long live.
Song Xuqiang was in good spirits, looked around at everyone present, and said, "Flat, give a seat", and then everyone stood up and sat down.
The Qujiang banquet began at Song Xu's signal. First, there was a burst of singing and dancing, and then some people chanted poems to praise the new dynasty, and then began to write poems.
Zhou Meiyu became excited at the beginning of the song and dance. Looking at the dancing girls who came out of the painting, Zhou Meiyu shouted that it was worth it. Even more brilliant than her eyes was Li Jiangnan, who didn't know when she came over, and her demented appearance was almost drooling. Zhou Meiyu felt embarrassed, picked a fruit casually, and threw it towards Li Jiangnan. Li Jiangnan had an extra bag as big as a baby's head on his forehead.
The most unhappy person in the audience was Helian Yi. As he expected, although he won the exam, he ranked first in the team, the reason is naturally that the "comfort" of being the champion has not appeared for a long time, and no one even knows how old this person is, where he lives, and who he is taught by. He felt aggrieved.
From the emperor and the crown prince to the civil and military officials, they naturally knew about the "disappearance" of the champion, so they focused on Bangyan and Tanhua.
This year's Tanhualang is a scholar in his forties, named Zou Tingchen, who is also a legend. He was quite dissatisfied with the 97th place in the top 3 in the last imperial examination, and he participated in it again last time, and he was ranked 60th in the second grade, until this time, he won the top 1 in the examination, and he is really a persevering person. However, this persevering scholar has long been married and even has children, so the adults put their main energy on He Lianyi.
Zhou Meiyu heard several adults around her shouting.
"Master Li, your young lady is only eleven years old, and she has not yet reached the age, so don't worry. This Helian son, just give your love to the old man. ”
Then Master Li waved his hand and said, "Master Zhang, as far as I know, your young lady is only one year older than the little girl, why are you in a hurry?"
"Heh, it's not that my family is urging me so much, it hurts my ears. My wife has heard about this Helian son a long time ago, and she has to ask me to take him back!"
"Who isn't! My wife played leaf cards with your relatives yesterday, and she has already boasted about Haikou, if I let her lose people, she will have to let me lose my life!"
Yo, the struggle is fierce.
"Two adults," Lord Tobe Shangshu Shi interjected, "you two don't argue first, let the officials ask, do you know the identity of this Helian Gongzi?"
"Identity?" asked Master Lee.
Master Zhang laughed and said: "I know this-Lord Li, I didn't inquire in advance when I came to 'rob people'?" This Helian Gongzi is the son of Kuizhou Taishou and the nephew of Master Zhen, a university scholar. He took the exam with the eldest son of the Zhen family. Lord Zhen's son-in-law was also admitted to the exam, ranking second, and he was also an outstanding-looking child. ”
Master Li suddenly said: "Oh, the door is not bad, no wonder the temperament is outstanding." In this way, I will give you Gongzi Zhen, and you will give Gongzi Helian to me, how about it?"
"Why?" Lord Zhang's eyes widened, and he said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "In order to find out the identity of this child, I turned the Ministry of Rites upside down, and used a night pearl to exchange news with Lord Pei, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. Is it easy for me!"
"I'll compensate you, compensate you for ten night pearls, and give me He's clothes!"
"No way!"
"I ......"
Seeing that these two adults with gray hair were about to quarrel, Master Shi hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't be busy, don't be busy, it's easy to talk and talk." Let the subordinate say a fair word. ”
