Chapter 537: The Sandalwood Box Hides a Void

"Wen Zhizhen likes to preach, and he has to instill his own opinions in others all the time. ”

A few feet away, Luo Jiayun, Zhou Guan, Gao Jing, Gu Yanzhi and others looked at the scene in front of the door, and Zhou Guan couldn't help but say.

These people all came from Jiannan Road, and they all had friendships with Qiu Yan, and they all received invitations, and they happened to meet halfway.

"Since I met Wen Zhizhen, he has to open the altar to teach the Fa every time, just like this exam, he said over and over again, I don't know the Tao, I thought this was to start a sect and become a school of its own. Zhou Guan seems to be very dissatisfied with Wen Zhizhen.

"Behind the criticism, it shouldn't be. "Luo Jiayun is familiar with Zhou Guan, and he is a few years older, and he has a kind of brother style, and he wakes up when he speaks.

Zhou Guan also knew that there were many people in the Daoist way, so he temporarily stopped his voice, although he was also a lifter, and he participated in the examination, but he was not very old, and after walking a few steps, he couldn't help but say: "Recently, Wen Zhizhen has spoken in the inn several times, always pretending to mention Brother Qiu unintentionally, and has obvious ulterior motives, and it is still like this in the inn, and it is common to go to other places. ”

As he spoke, Wen Zhizhen in front of him was already surrounded by everyone and walked into the Anyang Courtyard.

Looking at his back, Luo Jiayun shook his head: "We can't control this matter, we can only see how Brother Qiu handles it, didn't Hu Qi say just now that Brother Qiu has come here in advance? I believe that with Brother Qiu's means, this rumor will definitely be broken." ”

When he went to the banquet, Qiu Yan asked Hu to get up and inform Luo Jiayun and others.

Zhou Guan looked inside the courtyard and whispered, "I don't know what happened to Brother Qiu inside." These days, many rumors are not good for Brother Qiu, after all, he is involved with Na Wen Zhizhen for no reason, and this surnamed Wen likes to show off everywhere and hide evil intentions, so it is inevitable that people will compare him with Brother Qiu, but Brother Qiu is low-key ......"

As he spoke, several people walked through the door, bypassed the wall, and handed over the invitation. Then I wanted to look inside the courtyard. followed but they were all stunned-

At the end of the line of sight, there was a picture of Wen Zhizhen smiling and saluting Qiu Yan.

Wen Zhizhen was surrounded by many Confucian scholars, who looked like they were headed by him, and faintly confronted Qiu Yan. This should not come as a surprise. Wen Zhizhen now has some clusters.

really shocked Luo Jiayun and others. There are also a lot of Confucian scholars gathered around Qiu Yan, and there is also a bit of a meaning of the stars holding the moon, which is to stabilize Qiu Yan's momentum. Not inferior to others.

"Look at this situation, are those people behind Brother Qiu defending him?" Zhou Guan said what he thought.

Gao Jing squinted slightly, looked at Qiu Yan, a trace of imperceptible light flashed in his eyes, and said: "The person next to Brother Qiu, I have some impressions, is a talented man from Huainan Province, named Gao Mian, who is modest, but he easily does not make friends with people, looking at his expression at this time, it seems that he admires Brother Qiu quite a lot." ”

Gu Yanzhi also saw a familiar figure, so he said: "The person behind Brother Qiu is Xie Yuan Ye Yun of Lingnan Dao, and his father and my teacher Yan Wu are world friends. ”

Gu Yanzhi's teacher Yan Wu is a famous calligrapher in the world, settled in Shuzhong, but he also had an encounter when he was young, although the imperial examination was not successful, but the relationship was not simple.

After listening to what the two said one after another, Luo Jiayun was confused: "When did Brother Qiu have a friendship with these people? These days, except for the day of the exam, he stays at home, how can he know the candidates from Lingnan Dao and Huainan Dao?"

The same question also appeared in Wen Zhizhen's heart, but he had the city government in his heart, and he would not show it easily, and talk to the eye casually.

"Two days ago, Wen went to visit the inn where Brother Qiu stayed, but he couldn't see him, and he has been regretting it, and he can't have a long talk with Brother Qiu. This is true.

Qiu Yan responded with a smile: "It's an honor to have Brother Lao Wen in his arms, the name of Brother Wen, Qiu has long been like thunder, and when I see it today, I will definitely ask for advice." ”

"Where, where," Wen Zhizhen shook his head and smiled faintly, "Speaking of asking for advice, I don't know what Brother Qiu has about the strategy of this exam?" he asked, but he was organizing the language in his heart, ready to combine what he had learned, starting from the aspect of strategy and theory, and suppress Qiu Yan first.

Wen Zhizhen came over this time, he was going to take the opportunity to act, these days, he has tried his best to show his talent and make a great name in Xingjing, which is a good thing, but someone tied him to Qiu Yan's name, saying that the two are equally famous, but it turned out to let Qiu Yan sit back and enjoy his success.

This kind of thing can not be repeated, Wen Zhizhen is naturally unwilling, he has long wanted to separate from Qiu Yan, and today's dinner is a good opportunity.

But the scholars in this courtyard, for some reason, actually stood on Qiu Yan's side, adding momentum to the other party, and Wen Zhizhen's thoughts moved, and he had the idea of directly suppressing them.

He guessed the content of the test strategy before the exam, and now he is familiar with it, and can quote scriptures to prove his own point of view, with his own hole cards, even in the face of the heart ape, Yima, he is not afraid.

This question is to use his own strengths to deal with Qiu Yan's shortcomings.

It's just that Qiu Yan just shook his head and replied: "The test has passed, the dust has settled, and the strategy is only on the paper, what is there to think about?"

When Wen Zhizhen heard this, his face froze, and he couldn't say what he was ready to say, as if he had punched cotton.

Fortunately, his mind was deep, and he immediately calmed down his discomfort, and said with a smile: "Brother Qiu said that he laughed, the policy theory is related to the government and politics, although it is the words of the examination room, it can show the ambition in the chest, and the policy theory is written well and comprehensively.

Qiu Yan listened, first nodded, and then said: "Brother Wen has a long-term vision, taking one step at a time and seeing ten steps, which is admirable, but it is just a word on paper, which is what you and I know in our hearts, it may not be able to meet the well-being of others, it can be a policy, but it cannot be rashly implemented, otherwise it will affect not only your own future." ”

Wen Zhizhen listened, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he felt that there was an allusion to his empty talk in his words, but he was still silent on the surface: "Oh? Brother Qiu's words can be described as thought-provoking, but these words are a little biased......

He wanted to say more, but a maid came over, slightly blessed, and said: "Two sons, my young lady Zhilu Dao and the two are here, and I specially asked me to invite the two to enter the hall." ”

This maid also knew that there were other scholars on the side of the road, and she did not say words that irritated others.

"Did your young lady send someone to invite you again?" Qiu Yan asked, turning his head, his eyes fell on the young man in Tsing Yi not far away, who was still stunned in place, and was shocked when he saw the maid.

The maid also glanced at the little girl, but she didn't see any different colors, but just urged Qiu Yan and Wen Zhizhen.

She came over in person to invite, it seemed that Qiu Yan and Wen Zhizhen were different, and the Confucian students who were admitted to the hospital with Wen Zhizhen did not see Qiu Yan's methods, how could they be convinced?

But before the man finished speaking, several people led by Gao Mian spoke to defend it, which made the latecomers suspicious, after they came into contact with Wen Zhizhen, they listened to the latter's speech, and they were unconsciously affected, and naturally had a bad feeling for Qiu Yan.

At this time, when I heard the words of Gao Mian and others, I thought in my heart, and the thoughts that were unconsciously affected gradually changed, and I faintly reflected on my words and deeds.

"Oh?" Qiu Yan's eyes flashed a little different, and he glanced at Wen Zhizhen, noticing that his complexion had changed slightly, and his expression was stiff.

"This Wen Zhizhen does not seem to be simple, not a simple talent. I haven't felt it before, but this time I came here, the things I experienced before and after, I can clearly feel that everyone is very resistant to me, they have been studying for many years, and they must have the kung fu to nourish their qi, and it is impossible to have no heart at all, but now there are people who slander them in person, which is really weird, like a person who has never been in the world!"

Looking around, Qiu Yan's heartstrings flicked, and the will of the surrounding cities fluctuated, capturing the slightest change in thought.

"Reading and cultivating the mind, even if there is dissatisfaction, it is impossible to easily express it, and everyone present is said to be a vision, but after the change of thoughts, there is a vision, which is not ordinary. There is also that Pang Qianru, who laid out this game, and there are deliberate traces, but when I saw her before, I vaguely felt that this female Hongluan was upside down, and I don't know if it was because of this abnormal behavior......"

With this thought, the two were led into the lobby by the maid.

The furnishings in the lobby are also exquisite, but the layout is no different from the outside, and there are several low tables arranged in turn, but there are not many of them, and there are only a few people who want to enter the lobby after all.

Since ancient times, the literati are light, the most taboo to be looked down upon, the people who come tonight, most of them are the best among the many candidates, although there is a difference in reputation, but in terms of identity, they are all lifted, and some people enter the hall, if there is a difference in the specifications of tables and chairs, then it will offend people.

This truth, even if Pang Qianru doesn't understand it, the steward of the Hou Mansion will not understand it, of course there is an arrangement.

After Qiu Yan walked into the lobby, he was led to a table and sat down, opposite Wen Zhizhen, obviously carefully designed, and next to him, there was an acquaintance.

"Brother Qiu, long time no see. Qi Jiulian looked at Qiu Yan with an embarrassed expression, and then looked at Wen Zhizhen, like sitting on pins and needles.

Qiu Yan nodded in return, this Qi Jiulian used his name to fight with Wen Zhizhen, he knew that since he met today, he always wanted to talk about it, but not now-

Since Qiu Yan entered the hall, several spirits in his body were eager to try, faintly echoing something in the hall.

Following the induction, he cast his gaze, but what he saw was a sandalwood box placed on the innermost table, and at the same time, Wen Zhizhen actually looked at the box, and a little strange color flashed in his eyes.

This box does not seem to have much novelty, and the surface is not ordinarily carved, but the whole body is bright, at first glance it looks like jade, and you can smell a little fragrance from afar.

In Qiu Yan's perception, there seemed to be something hidden in the box, giving people a mysterious and unpredictable feeling, and it hooked several sage spirits.

"...... in this box," he slowly narrowed his eyes, feeling a little surprised. (To be continued......)
