I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 98
There is a small village near the official road in Shangsi County. The courtyard is lined with green trees. The branches and leaves that block the sky block the sun, so that the two people sitting by the window do not feel the heat at all.

"Sir." The servant in Tsing Yi stepped into the room quickly, and after saluting, he replied, "The housekeeper in the manor with the lord stopped him outside the county school..."

Today, Gu Qingzhou is wearing a wide-sleeved robe, holding a Ru porcelain teacup in one hand, half-squinting looking at the scenery outside the window, holding the real celebrity self-love.

But when he heard Zhan Feiyu smashing the head of the man and the housekeeper with an inkstone, Gu Qingzhou shook his hand, and the tea was spilled, and he couldn't care less, and asked, "You said the little girl beat people? "

The servant in Tsing Yi took the cloth towel and wiped Gu Qingzhou's hands, and then wiped off the water stains on the tea table, and then continued: "Yes, I smashed it twice, and let the catcher take people into the county office. ."

"Zhan Feiyu went to the study to meet the county magistrate Chen. After a quarter of an hour, Zhan Feiyu left. Master Chen beat the housekeeper [-] times on the grounds of insulting the scholar and threw him into jail." The servant in Tsing Yi was only fourteen. At the age of five, he answered with a blank face, but Gu Qingzhou, who knew him well, could still hear the displeasure in his words.

"Wuyan, I said before that the little girl and you were all the same, but now it seems to be the case." Gu Qingzhou laughed loudly, and raised the teacup to the indifferent Yin Wuyan, "Dang Fu is a big white, please."

Yin Wuyan coldly looked at Gu Qingzhou who used tea instead of wine, his voice was cold and biting, "It's far worse than Master Gu!"

Zhan Feiyu was still surprised why Gu Qingzhou did not appear, and Zhang Zhifu did not come to Si County. In the end, it was just that Gu Qingzhou took Zhan Feiyu as bait and deliberately released specious news, waiting for someone to take the bait. Danger can be imagined.

"The sage sent someone here, and the little girl would not have an accident even if she wasn't so cruel." Gu Qingzhou smiled meaningfully. If the sage hadn't sent someone, the person who banned Longwei would have protected the little girl in secret.

"Accept Xiaoyu as a disciple, and this matter has been revealed." Yin Wuyan had this idea when he knew that the Holy Master had sent Gu Qingzhou to deal with the matter.

With this great credit, Zhan Feiyu can be named the county owner at least, but Yin Wuyan understands that Zhan Feiyu, who has no foundation, is just an empty name.

On the contrary, they will be targeted by some unscrupulous families. If they casually send an incompetent child to marry a little girl, they will be able to attribute this great achievement to their own family.

The lazy Gu Qingzhou suddenly sat up straight and said sternly: "I owe the little girl one time Yu Qing, and Yu Lisheng will also reward her, but you think clearly, if I accept the little girl as a disciple, you must cooperate with me. She cut off contact!"

When he said the last sentence, Gu Qingzhou looked stern and serious. He and Yin Wuyan can be said to be the two most trusted ministers of the saint, but they must not have any personal friendship, otherwise it will be a disaster.

Furthermore, Gu Qingzhou was a great scholar of the dynasty and a role model for scholars in the literati, while Yin Wuyan was the commander of the Dragon Guard, but he was called an eagle dog by countless courtiers in private.

Murdering, bloodthirsty, savage... Yin Wuyan has too many notions.It is absolutely impossible for his Gu Qingzhou disciple to have anything to do with the Dragon Guard.Of course, this is also for Zhan Feiyu's consideration.

Before Yin Wuyan gave Zhan Feiyu a New Year's gift, or opened her eyes for her when the Zeng family and Zhang Xiucai were in trouble, they all used the name of the Nanxuanwei Institute, and in the final analysis, it was for the sake of the little girl's reputation.

As soon as Gu Qingzhou's voice fell, the aura around Yin Wuyan's body suddenly became cold, and the sharp killing eyes seemed to make Gu Qingzhou splatter three feet of blood on the spot.

The servant in Tsing Yi was originally standing quietly in the corner, but his expression changed at this time, just as he was about to rush over, he was stopped by the heavy light horizontal knife on the side, and he tapped his acupuncture point.

Yin Wuyan's icy voice sounded, which did not diminish the murderous aura in his body at all, "Master Gu's management is too broad!"

Gu Qingzhou poured himself a cup of tea, took two sips, the rich tea fragrance spread in his mouth, "When I was young, I didn't like the bitter taste of tea very much, but now, I don't like tea, and some people have things Carved into the bones, if you want to give up, you have to peel off the flesh and blood, and it is good for you to cut off contact at this time."

Yin Wuyan was able to hide the news because Shangsi County was located in a remote area, and Zhan Feiyu was also a little girl with a talent for reading, and would not attract attention.

But once the news of movable type printing got out, Yin Wuyan had to avoid suspicion, at least not have any contact with Zhan Feiyu on the surface.

There is no need for Gu Qingzhou to say that those people in the DPRK can't deal with Yin Wuyan, and they will definitely take their anger on Zhan Feiyu, and she is a little girl who has no power to tie a chicken, I am afraid that she will die without a place to be buried, and Yin Wuyan was at that time. It's too late to regret.

The icy phoenix eyes looked out the window, Yin Wuyan, who didn't say a word, was like a sculpture. What remained unchanged was the coldness and sharpness in his eyebrows.

After staying in the dark for a long time, some people are like a light, warm and bright, making people reluctant to let go.

The little girl smiled, her brows and eyes curved, but she was also extremely cute when she was cowardly. In the past few years, there were countless officials in his hands who were beheaded by the whole family. There were also children on the guillotine, but the little girl was different to him.

"Wuyan, you are weak this year, and the little girl is only eight years old. Do you think ten years from now, if you two are close, how will the little girl get married?" Gu Qingzhou had to be vulgar once, throwing the marriage as the reason.

And eight years old, no matter how close they are, it doesn't matter, but at the age of 28, everyone in the world thinks about the relationship between men and women with malicious intent, especially Yin Wuyan has made countless enemies, and the enemies dare not attack him, and the one who will be sacrificed will only be Zhan Feiyu, And it will be the worst and most unbearable gossip.

Yin Wuyan left with heavy light, although he didn't speak again in the end, but Gu Qingzhou knew that he had agreed.

"Sir, do you want to accept Zhan Feiyu as your apprentice?" The servant in Tsing Yi asked in a low voice. So many young talents wanted to be your master, but they were all rejected by the master. Zhan Feiyu was a rude and rude country boy. Girl why is she?

Gu Qingzhou smiled and looked at the emotional servant in Tsing Yi, "Gu Yuan, are you worried that she will ruin your family's reputation?"

"Isn't it?" Gu Yuan finally got annoyed, and said angrily: "Zhan Feiyu is full of stains, if the adults accept her as a disciple, I don't know how many things will happen!"

Not to mention that Zhan Feiyu studied for the imperial examinations as a woman, she was cold and ruthless to the people in the old house after she was adopted, but she did not recognize her own father, so her parents were almost divorced.

In order to gain fame, he made a deal with the businessman, Mr. Xie, which made Gu Yuan unhappy.

And today, she smashed her fellow housekeeper's head with the inkstone, and smashed it twice in a row, but she was so cruel and vicious at such a young age, Gu Yuan didn't understand why her own adults chose Zhan Feiyu.

Gu Qingzhou looked at Gu Yuan who was so worried, as if the sky was about to fall, shook his head and smiled: "It's mediocre if you don't attract jealousy! The little girl is an interesting person, and this is the meaning of the saint."

Gu Yuan did not dare to say anything about the person who was involved in the Golden Palace, even if he had a stomach full of dissatisfaction.

"Bring over those articles on the desk." Gu Qingzhou said with a smile.

After a long while, looking at the lines of handwriting in standard Taiwanese style, although Gu Yuan could not read the art of making art, but the words made people's eyes shine, but there was still dissatisfaction in the questioning voice, "Sir, it's really true. Written by an eight-year-old girl?"

"The key is that she has been in school for less than a year, and her handwriting is already strong." Gu Qingzhou smiled and stared at Gu Yuan. He followed him when he was five years old, and for ten years now, the words he has written are simply terrible.

"I..." Gu Yuan blushed in embarrassment, and was unconvinced that she was beaten by the eight-year-old girl. She stuck her neck and left a sentence before running out, "I won't take the imperial examination."

The laughter sounded, Gu Qingzhou resumed his lazy attitude, picked up the fan and fanned the wind slowly, the movable type printing technique was a big deal, especially for the scholars all over the world, Zhan Feiyu's merit could not be rewarded.

But just as Yin Wuyan was worried, the sage did not want those families to attribute this great merit to the family name through marriage, especially the sage had a total of seven princes.

Although the age of the prince is not suitable, there is still a grandson. Whoever marries Zhan Feiyu will be respected by scholars all over the world, and the relationship with the throne will make the situation more complicated, so it is best for Gu Qingzhou to accept apprentices Method.

……

Zhan Feiyu had no idea that Master Gu had moved to accept himself as a disciple.

Three Provinces Building.

"Why do you suddenly want to learn barbarian language?" Zhao Jiaoyu asked in surprise. He only asked Master Dou Zhan Feiyu's reading progress yesterday, and the Tongsheng test in February next year is appropriate.

"Teaching, there are thousands of scholars in the world. I want to have the ability to settle down." Zhan Feiyu replied in a crisp voice, even if it is a man, it is not easy for a young man to become famous. of the cautionary tale.

And Zhan Feiyu reading the imperial examination as a woman will provoke too many criticisms. Once the news of movable type printing spreads, her experience of mixing keyboards and eating melons in the past life guarantees that she will definitely have mixed feelings. She is grateful that she has many scholars. But the voice of doubt will not be small.

Zhao Jiaoyu seemed to understand, and after thinking for a while, he said: "The imperial court does not have many exchanges with overseas barbarians. Several prefectures that opened the sea ban have business dealings with barbarian merchants. The officials of Honglu Temple know the barbarian language, but it does not count. proficient."

This is also normal. Han Chuang has been studying hard for decades, and finally got a title on the gold list. Who doesn't want to benefit one party for the official position.

But when you enter Honglu Temple, you have to learn the barbarian language again. Who wants to learn from scratch, so generally they only know a little bit, can communicate on a daily basis, and add body gestures.

"Yes, although learning the barbarian language may seem a bit tasteless, sometimes it is indispensable." Zhan Feiyu had already planned it, but if you need to use the barbarian language, you will naturally need yourself, even if she is a woman, she You can use barbarian language to make yourself invincible.

"You should be able to find barbarian books, but no one can teach you." Zhao Jiaoyu was also a graduate of the imperial examination. There are many classmates in the same year, and they will definitely be able to buy books in the prefectures near the sea, but those who teach barbarian language Master, Zhao Jiaoyu is helpless.

With a smile on his chubby little face, Zhan Feiyu replied, "Thank you for your help, I think the court will give you a reward at that time, so I will ask the merchant's motorcade to help hire a local person who is proficient in barbarian language to teach me. , will not delay reading."

There is a Nanjiang River running through Nanxuan Prefecture. Because of the wharf and water transportation, the caravans of Nanxuan Prefecture can run far away, and there are also grocery shops selling seafood.

Zhan Feiyu deduced that the goods were imported from Zhongzhou Prefecture, which is the closest to the sea, so there must be local people who are proficient in barbarian language in Zhongzhou Prefecture.

In fact, Zhan Feiyu was just looking for an upright shield. She hired someone back for half a year. Who made her a child prodigy? Can hold back!

"This is feasible. You are young, so you are not in a hurry for the imperial examination." Zhao Jiaoyu knew that Zhan Feiyu studied hard, even surpassing most of the students in the county school.

Suddenly there were footsteps hurriedly heard outside the door, Zhan Feiyu and Zhao Jiaoyu looked back, but saw Zhaifu running over in a panic.

"Jiaoyu, a carriage came from outside, saying that it came from Nanxuan Mansion. The adults on the carriage asked Jiaoyu to go over and answer."

Zhao Jiaoyu's face couldn't help sinking, and the scholar was aloof, even if the other party was a higher rank official, but this attitude of taking Zhao Jiaoyu to the present was really unpleasant.

Nanxuan House?Zhan Feiyu couldn't help thinking of the housekeeper who was imprisoned in the cell by the county magistrate. In the morning, when she came to school in the county, she "coincidentally met" Zhao Zhukuai.

"Jiaoyu, why don't you go out and have a look." Zhan Feiyu found Zhao Jiaoyu a step down the stairs, and said with a smile: "If it is really an adult, you should go to the county government to find Lord Chen first."

Zhao Jiaoyu's first reaction just now was an adult who came for movable type printing. He passed the book through his teacher, and Zhao Jiaoyu didn't know about the follow-up questions.

In the final analysis, he is only the teaching of the county school, a low-ranking eighth-rank petty official, how can he know the news of the imperial court.

"Alright, I want to see which one of the adults put the official stance at the gate of the county school!" Zhao Jiaoyu threw his sleeves and walked out the door with a bit of anger.

There are several big trees planted outside the county school gate, and the luxuriant branches can just block the sun.

At this time, a gorgeous carriage was parked under the tree. In addition to the driver, the servant, and the maid, there were four big men standing next to the carriage, and the horses they rode were tied under the tree not far away.

"Teacher, this posture is not small. At first glance, it is a master who is not bad for money." Zhan Feiyu pursed his lips and smiled.

It is absolutely impossible for court officials to bring maids when they go out to work, or this kind of maid with fair skin and beautiful clothes is more like a maid in a concubine's room.

"Careful in words and deeds!" Zhao Jiaoyu feigned angrily, but his expression relaxed.

Walking forward in three or two steps, Zhao Jiaoyu cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know which adult is inspecting the county school?"

The curtain of the carriage was lifted to a corner, and the slender wrist stretched out with bursts of fragrance, and a famous post was held in the plain and delicate soft weed.

The servant on the side hurriedly took it with both hands, with a very respectful attitude, but when he handed it over to Zhao Jiaoyu, he had a arrogant face, "Dare to make my master wait for a long time, Jiaoyu is so big!"

This fact is definitely not a court official, Zhao Jiaoyu was completely relieved, opened the famous post, and frowned slightly.

Zhan Feiyu stood on tiptoe and glanced at it, a thief smile appeared on his little face, it really is, I'm afraid it was the lackey of the same adult, and yesterday's housekeeper seemed to be leading the charge.

It can be thought that Yin Wuyan had said before that Zhang Zhifu and Tongtongzhi were fighting evenly, one was a strong dragon and the other was a local snake. It stands to reason that Tongtongzhi would not act so rudely.

Zhan Feiyu glanced at the carriage suspiciously. Could this be a trick to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger?
Estimating the time, the person in the carriage spoke up, the male voice was slightly hoarse and lacked in breath, but his voice revealed a high-spirited attitude, "Zhao Jiaoyu, Zhan Feiyu is a student of the county school, and she sent me to me yesterday. The housekeeper beat his head with blood, I want to take the murderer to the county office, and I also ask Zhao Jiaoyu to make it easier!"

Do you say yes, but this strong attitude definitely cannot be rejected by Zhao Jiaoyu.

"What?" Startled, Zhao Jiaoyu turned around suddenly and looked at Zhan Feiyu, who was laughing beside him with a guilty conscience. This girl didn't say anything, she was a blockbuster!
Zhan Feiyu grinned, his expression was innocent, and his soft voice sounded soft and pitiful, "Teacher, the students are helpless, the other party's carriage deliberately parked in the alley outside the county school and almost hit it. Not to mention the ox cart, the butler still has to take the students away forcibly, and if the students refuse to let Uncle Hu drive the ox cart away, he even grabs the whip and will slap me in the face, so I hurt someone."

Zhao Jiaoyu couldn't care about anything else, and looked Zhan Feiyu up and down with concerned eyes to make sure that she was not injured, then he breathed a sigh of relief, and his anger burned.

Zhan Feiyu said it very clearly, the butler actually used a carriage to hit an ox cart in a frenzy!
If something goes wrong, it will be injured at light level, or fatal at serious level. That's all. He dares to whip someone with a whip. Looking at Zhan Feiyu's chubby face with red lips and white teeth, Zhao Jiaoyu can't imagine that if she hadn't avoided it, How would it be.
