Chapter Seventy-One: If you want to see me, come by yourself
The man who spoke was dressed as a scholar, about thirty years old, with a handsome face, a pair of thick eyebrows that were particularly eye-catching, but the coarse cloth clothes on his body were slightly shabby, and he was a little white.
Seeing this person, Qiu Yan immediately stepped forward to greet him: "It turned out that Brother Zheng was here." ”
This person's name is Zheng Chongsen, and he has a good relationship with Qiu Yan's predecessor, and the two often talk about article studies together.
This Zheng Chongsen has not passed the Dao test three times before, and he and Qiu Yan are difficult brothers, but this time before the Dao exam, he worked hard up and down, and finally paid off and won a show of fame.
"A while ago, I heard the bad news of the virtuous brother and Ling Zun, I was very sad for my brother, and I hung in the air, but I didn't expect to hear that you were giving porridge in the city this morning, if there was no such thing, I don't know when I would be a brother to know. There was a hint of reproach in his words.
Qiu Yan hurriedly confessed and glanced at the other party, only to find that Zheng Chongsen's skin was pale, and there seemed to be black gas between his eyebrows.
"Oh, this is indeed a sad performance, it seems that this Zheng Chongsen really regards his predecessor as a friend, even if he wins the show and his status changes, he has not let the relationship deteriorate. ”
In the past three days, Qiu Yan has condensed the human soul, in addition to listening to books every night, he has also tried to cultivate the spiritual eye trick and mantra outline, although it has not yet achieved results, but his eyesight has indeed been enhanced, and he can see the clues from Zheng Chongsen's face when he explores carefully.
Then, Qiu Yan led Zheng Chongsen into the courtyard.
The courtyard was simple, and the two stood and talked a few words, talking about the emperor's death.
Although they study and have the saying of being loyal to the monarch and serving the country, but now one of them is just a showman, and none of them have fame, of course they won't feel too much, and Zheng Chongsen is concerned about another thing-
"The first few times the new emperor ascended the throne in this dynasty, he opened Enke back then, and this time I heard that it was the same, it was an opportunity, but it was a pity that you had to keep filial piety and miss the opportunity. ”
The imperial examination is originally an examination every three years, the township examination, the meeting examination, this is the main examination, in addition, if the emperor makes a will, he can also add an additional imperial examination in three years, this is Enke.
For a person like Zheng Chongsen, the triennial wait is very long, and it is undoubtedly a happy event to meet Enke outside of this.
Qiu Yan said: "Brother Zheng doesn't have to be a pity, the younger brother hasn't even taken the Taoist exam, even if there is no filial piety, this Enke can't catch up, not to mention this experience of life and death, I have some insights, and I have different feelings about reading and writing recently. ”
"Brother Xian can think like this, and he is also open-minded," Zheng Chongsen nodded, and then said, "There is one more thing, I don't know if you know, that is, Ma Lao Xiangguo came to our Qingchang, he is a master of the literary world, and his reputation is far and wide, and the group of people in the county school are planning to visit together, and they are pretentious and high-minded, and they look down on us, and when they see Lao Xiangguo, I don't know how proud they want to be, I think, why don't we try to meet ......."
As he was talking, suddenly there was a knock at the courtyard door.
"It's someone again? It's a lively day. Qiu Yan's heart moved, and he and Zheng Chongsen went out together, but what they saw was a well-dressed middle-aged man with slender eyes and a beard.
When he saw this person, Zheng Chongsen was stunned, and then said in a low voice: "This person is the chief steward of Chen Qichang's family, surnamed Song, then Chen Qichang heard that he has the intention to seek your family's house, so he must be guarded against." ”
"Oh, it's the steward of Chen Qichang's family? ”
These days, he listened to books at night, but he was not idle during the day, he and Yan Yongjie went to the Chen Mansion to inquire around, and during this period, he also asked a few sheep souls trapped in the maze of Fu Seal, but the other party only delayed, without the slightest intention of confessing.
"Qingchang County has Ma Lao Xiangguo in charge, just about safety, Yuanning doesn't have to go up, such a big Confucian, one word can make the soul of the soul upside down, shout, demons and monsters have to retreat, but things between demons and demons can not be escaped, this is related to the cause and effect of the enmity and enmity in this body, since they have taken the initiative to come to the door, I have no reason to retreat. ”
Thinking to himself, he stepped forward and saluted.
This Song steward glanced at Qiu Yan a few times, and then said: "Qiu Gongzi, you don't have to say much about the grievances with my family, and it is inconvenient to reveal them to others, it's just a matter of Chen Qichang and the wolf warrior, after all, there must be a saying, my princess will come to Qingchang County in a few days, and then I will ask the prince to appreciate the light and go to the house to discuss." ”
"Brother Xian, do you still have grievances with the Chen Mansion?" Zheng Chongsen on the side listened, but he was taken aback, "That Chen Mansion is powerful......
"Brother Zheng don't worry, I have my own opinions. ”
Qiu Yan appeased, then looked at Steward Song and asked, "Da Rui's princesses all have titles, I don't know which princess you are talking about?"
"Why do you knowingly ask?" Steward Song smiled, "I'm just a messenger, you just have to go to the appointment then." ”
Qiu Yan shook his head: "Since she wants to see me, where is the reason to let me come to the door, just let her come over when the time comes." ”
Hearing this, Steward Song's face changed: "Childe, we are here to give you face...... As he spoke, a faint momentum emanated from his body.
Diffusion!
Zheng Chongsen and Rong Niang, who was busy in the house, were both stagnant, feeling out of breath and short of breath.
"Since you're just a messenger, just take my words back, and it's not your turn to call the shots, right?" Qiu Yan said, flicked his sleeves, and made a gesture of sending off guests, as if he regarded this Song steward as a slave and a lackey.
Steward Song's face turned pale, Zuihou sneered, and turned to leave.
The momentum that filled the surroundings disappeared, and Zheng Chongsen gasped suddenly, and then immediately said urgently: "Brother Xian, you are acting rashly! Although I don't know who the princess in that mouth is, Xu is a member of the swamp tribe in the south, but the Chen family is rich and powerful, if you don't give face like this, there will be trouble!"
"Brother Zheng doesn't need to say much, I know in my heart, don't worry about these things, prepare for the exam with peace of mind, don't be distracted. ”
After saying a few words, Qiu Yan sent Zheng Chongsen away and returned to the courtyard, his brows furrowed.
According to Yan Yongjie's speculation, the one who can achieve the momentum from the heart should have refined the third spirit, the spirit! Chen Qichang is a three-spirit demon, and this manager is also a three-spirit demon, it seems that the Chen Mansion is not as simple as I thought. ”
Thinking about it, Qiu Yan didn't go back to the study, but helped clean the yard together, and at noon, Pan Rongniang came out of the hall, patted the dust on her body, looked at the sky, and said, "Cousin, you wait, I'll make lunch for you." ”
Seeing her like this, Qiu Yan squinted his eyes and noticed that although Pan Rongniang had a lot of dust on her body, her face was still crystal clear, and there was no sign of tiredness, and even after a busy morning, she didn't sweat a drop, let alone feel tired, and her previous doubts became more and more intense.
He thought for a while, stopped Rong Niang, and asked, "What have you eaten these days?"
"What did you eat?" Rong Niang thought for a while, "In addition to three meals a day, it is the medicine prescribed by the dining hall, speaking of which, cousin, the medical clinic you recommended is really good, my mother went to talk about the symptoms, and the doctor who sat in the hall prescribed the prescription and grabbed the medicine, after eating, the spirit became more and more energetic, and I felt that the body and bones were better than before!"
