Chapter 264

Jing Shi and Zhang Duan have known each other for a long time, he knows that she is strict and cautious, and what she said is really for her own sake.At that moment, he only smiled and said: "Young Master Yu was born in the Zou family. He is already a nobleman in heaven, and he was awarded a noble and a mansion by Zhongtu. He is famous for benevolence, virtue, sage, and wisdom. He must not eat living people."

Zhang Duan glanced at him lightly and said, "Ziyun is knowledgeable and knowledgeable. If he doesn't speak strange words from time to time, he should have been recommended by the county government. I don't need to do this kind of favor. Young master Yu is neither a monster nor a monster, how could he have food? Human nature?"

Jing Shi said: "Thinking about the old things, I just missed a word."

Zhang Duan sighed and said: "Idle clouds, lone cranes, hazy water stones, are free and easy, but Ziyun's lifelong knowledge is wasted in the wilderness. What a pity. Now that the opportunity is a gift from God, I must fight for it. I am here today. One is to see you, and the other is for another reason." But he refused to go into details, until Jing Shi asked, he just smiled and said: "Zi Yun will know the clue when he goes back to the examiner."

While chatting, the two walked from the city gate to North Street.Cars and horses sparkle in the road, shoulder to shoulder, and people's voices can be heard in the eight streets and nine streets.There are rows of shops in the city, Luoqi Baozhu, golden willows and jade emeralds, which are extremely prosperous.

At that time, the Eastern Region pursued a style of writing, pleasing softness and elegance, and the upper-class men would often apply powder and beautification, lavender their clothes and shave their faces, and they did not think it was unnecessary.Zhang Duan is taller than ordinary women, and he wears high-heeled clogs and a green cloth scarf on his head, which actually surpasses Jing Shi by a little.He also disguises himself as a man, is good at uttering false sounds, and behaves freely and freely.Passers-by looked at it and thought it was Mr. Yu, who frequently made women look back and look around, almost throwing fruits and flowers.Jing Shi followed beside him, making him a dispensable companion.At the corner of the street, there is a huge mansion with black tiles and white walls, elegant and elegant. Although it is in the middle of the street, it is more peaceful and indifferent. Only two black-armored warriors stood in front of the door, holding spears and halberds, looking awe-inspiring. .

Zhang Duan pointed out in a low voice: "Ziyun, let's look at that place. It is Suiye Xueyang Academy, which is temporarily used as an examiner. You follow me to report to Young Master Yu's Mansion, and then you will live here, waiting for the test to be opened. "

The two moved forward again, to the hinterland of the city.At that time, King Dan had three sons and three daughters according to his rank. The youngest son, Yu, was the second son. He was granted the title of Marquis of Lingguan, so the mansion was not called the prince's mansion according to the rules, but all of them were called Lingguan mansion.The two came to the front of the mansion, handed over their names, and went in to record Jing Shi's name.

Zhang Duan was the daughter of a family, and her brother also had old friends with the royal family.Entering the mansion, several deacons know each other, and they are called Langjun.The two chatted, and Zhang Duannai asked, "Is the Marquis of Lingguan in the mansion today?"

The deacon replied: "My master is going out with guests at Huaye Pavilion outside the city today. I am afraid that I will return that night. I will not meet you two. Please forgive me. If Zhang Langjun has something important, you may as well leave a message, and I will report it to you later. Lord."

Zhang Duan originally wanted to introduce Jing Shi, but Zou Yu was diligent and frugal in the past, and he was not good at feasting and hunting, so he chose to go out with guests today.Although I was surprised, after all, it is inconvenient to ask more questions, so as not to be suspected of cheating, I just said: "It's okay. Today I just counted the names." So he followed the deacon to check the birth date of the name book. Outlined, sent to live in Xueyang Academy, and instructed: "Since the test students are in the examination supervisor, they are not allowed to leave without permission, so as to avoid accidents."

Hearing these words, Zhang Duan knew the difference now, and it would be difficult to see each other again, so he sent Jingshi all the way to the gate of the academy, and Yiyi said goodbye: "It is expected that there will be more than a month before the time for writing the question, and Ziyun can live well in the academy. Rest and rest, don't be greedy anymore. I have received the medicine seeds you gave earlier, thank you for your painstaking efforts to find them, and I will tell you about the results after they are matured." After exhorting them, they waved away.

After more than a month, Jing Shi waited in the courtyard to be promoted, and did not leave the house.Xueyang Academy was originally the home of Suye Chinese studies. The library is full of volumes, but also very quiet, the most suitable for concentrating on studying.Jingshi lived in the courtyard for one month, as if he had returned to Xiaoyuan's hometown school, reading and reading books all day long, and drawing all the roads and scenery on the way, and organizing them into a book.It only took more than ten days to tidy up the desk like this.Afterwards, having nothing to do, he took out a handful of broken jade from his bosom, and tried to put them together. He also counted on the beam and deduced the number theory.

One day and night, Jingshi was meditating, when he suddenly heard a sound from the wall next to him, a man weeping, his voice was very sharp and sad.Jing Shi didn't pay attention to it at the beginning, but who knew that his voice lasted for a long time, and he became wailing and sang along with the beat festival.Er'er's door slammed loudly, and one person said angrily: "Lou Qingwen! Are you letting people sleep!" The crying stopped, and the other person said in a muddled way: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's just for fun." There was no movement one after another.Jing Shi didn't pay attention to it either, until the next morning, someone came to knock on his door.

Jingshi opened the door to welcome visitors, but he saw that the person who came was a man in a moon white shirt. He was also plainly dressed, but his head was small, his chin was round and pointed, like an egg with a blunt head down, and he was wearing a high bun. Eyes are red and swollen like peaches.

When the visitor saw Jingshi, without saying anything else, he bowed his head and said, "I drank a lot last night and made a lot of noise. I'm really sorry for this brother." It turned out to be the neighbor.At present, the two met each other and exchanged names. Only then did they know that his name was Lou Jian, and he was from the county of Yueguo.

Jing Shi didn't pay attention to it at first, but when he heard his name, he felt that he had heard something, and immediately said: "Qianqiu is a building with Qingwen?"

Lou Jian laughed dryly and said, "It's my nickname that is true. It was also praised by some of my classmates. I am really ashamed and dare not take it." Asking Jing Shi's name, Jing Shi said, "Jing Shi, Yuanshan County, Zhenguo."

Lou Jian was overjoyed when he heard the words, strode forward, grabbed Jing Shi with both hands and said: "But did you write the Jing Ziyun of Zhen Kingdom's Hundred Things Chronicle? It's wonderful! In the past, I read Jun's Feng Zhi, which can be described as thorough and good. Wulizao Spring Flower, Yixian Ziyun is rigorous in writing, broad and pragmatic, and has a very different style from the other Fengwuzhi, and has long been acquainted. I also heard that you once cured the water disaster and fox problem. I don’t know how it happened? I have no life. By the way, there are only two. One is studying history and scholarship, and the other is hearing about it. I am lucky to meet Ziyun today, and I really want to hear about your life. I plan to make a record. I don’t know if Ziyun is free now? Let’s go to my room Sitting in the middle for a while doesn't take much of your time."

Jing Shi paused and said: "Water disasters and fox troubles are all trivial tricks, not worth passing on."

Lou Jian said: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way. I just want to ask a few questions." Then she pulled up her arms and sleeves and dragged Jingshi to the next room to chat.Jing Shi is not talkative at all, but Lou Jian is an idiot, when something happens to his heart, he forgets etiquette, and even wastes sleep and food, talking life and death from morning to night, he is willing to let Jing Shi go home.Since then, I have been visiting every day, going in and out of Ruo's house.Afterwards, he recommended several people for Jing Shi one after another, all of whom were his old friends.Among them, the youngest one is named Wang Ji, and his surname is Jingzhi.He was born in a poor family, and his nature is quite extreme, but he is good at chiming bells and drums, and his works are spread all over the countries in the Eastern Region, and his reputation is really higher than that of Lou Jian.This gentleman came early, but unfortunately he was a neighbor in the courtyard because of his relationship with Lou Jian.Whenever Lou Jian reads history books at night, there will be screams and weeping, and the corridors will be uneasy. , stop the noise.

Since Jing Shi knew about these two lives, it has been difficult for him to be clean since then. He has visitors visiting him every day, discussing classics and history, or talking about chess and music, and he never finds peace.Fortunately, he was calm by nature and rarely argued with others. He let others fight with each other, and sat down by the wall, meditating and focusing on counting.

In the morning of that day, Lou and Wang came to sit in his room, first arguing about the merits and demerits of the previous dynasty, and then discussing the current big move.Wang Yu said: "Lou Qingwen, you said that this time the Central Plains made a big move, but you told me to wait in the Qin Kingdom to wait for the test, what exactly do you want to do?"

Lou Jian scratched his head in deep thought, and replied for a long time: "This festival is really difficult to say. In the last period, the Middle Earth came to conquer our territory, and it has been more than Jiazi since now. At that time, the large-scale campaign coincided with the collapse of Mt. The land was flooded. The examiner ordered the examinee to lead a township each, with a period of one year as a limit to control the level of chaos. At that time, the examiner will be sent to tour the various places to visit the people's sentiments, so as to judge the quality and rank."

Wang Yu was surprised and said, "You don't ask paper and pen, but just ask the question of actual performance?"

Lou Jian said: "Even though it was like this last time, the world is peaceful now. I haven't heard of any catastrophe, and I don't know how Young Master Yu will arrange it." During the discussion, a soldier from the academy came to look for him, saying that someone from outside wanted to see Jing stone.When Jing Shi heard the words, he went away, and when he got to the gate, he saw Zhang Duan standing beside the road, holding a book fan, looking up at the willows.After seeing Jing Shi going out, he stepped forward to greet him and said, "How is Ziyun in the past few months?"

Jing Shi said: "Okay. Why did Zhuang Qing come here?"

Zhang Duan smiled slightly, but there was little joy on his face, and hurriedly said: "I came here today to inform Ziyun. I already guessed that this time there will be a big test, so I came here to tell Ziyun, hoping to make preparations early."

Although Jing Shi knew that the Zhang family was a prominent family in the Eastern Region, he didn't expect to have so many supernatural powers, so he said silently for a moment: "I'm afraid it's inappropriate for Zhuang Qing to reveal the topic in private."

Zhang Duan said with a smile: "Don't worry about it, Ziyun. This is not an ordinary essay test. It may not be better to know the questions earlier. In fact, I guessed the test questions myself. I dare not jump to conclusions. I want to ask Ziyun to advise me." .”

As far as she had said, Jing Shi was inconvenient to refuse, and Zhang Duan continued: "I went to the mansion the day before yesterday to pay homage to Young Master Yu, and saw that the mansion was preparing chariots, horses and luggage, and there were many offerings of grass animals. The people of the government gathered more than a dozen pieces of Su Duan and Jue Bian. They were stitched with gold and silver, and the patterns were rich. They were quite different from the usual shapes, and the size was extremely small. The sixteen characters engraved are: "Ordered by the sky, manifested by the earth. The green mountains are enshrined in Zen, and the four seas are calmed down. Now I give the king's utensils to subdue the East Ruins. Let's rest and settle, and all kinds of peace." Where are you waiting for the future?"

After hearing this, Jing Shi didn't hesitate any longer, and blurted out: "Yan Yiguo."
