You don't understand the fairy world

Chapter 49
After dinner, Long Xining got into Huaiying's room again, thinking of various excuses to talk to her, Xiao Zidan chased after her worriedly.In fact, Huaiying also wanted to ask Long Xining something, but Xiao Zidan was at the side, so it was really hard for her to ask.However, she couldn't find an excuse to drive Xiao Zidan out, otherwise, his elder brother would definitely lose his temper.

However, until the end of the Xu Dynasty, neither of them had the intention of getting up to leave, and Xiao Zidan even began to doze off, his head was bit by bit, and he still refused to leave.Huaiying didn't know what to do, so he simply asked Long Xining, "You... how do you practice on weekdays?"

She is very interested in her abilities, especially after she saw herself go crazy and blast that Yunzechuan witch into the sky last time.However, when it came time for her to make a show and try to see how capable she was, she found that she couldn't.How is the aura of the gods controlled?

Compared to entrusting her own safety to Long Xining, Huaiying certainly hopes to protect herself. At least, when she encounters danger next time, she no longer hopes for an accidental outbreak.

"Cultivation?" Long Xining blinked, and immediately understood what Huaiying meant.Xiao Zidan opened his eyes vigorously, stared at Huaiying suspiciously and asked, "Why are you asking this?" How can ordinary people learn the Dragon King's cultivation methods.Besides, why did Huaiying suddenly become interested in this?
Huaiying quickly replied: "It's nothing, I'm just curious. Didn't Master Guoshi tell me not to go out? I have nothing to do at home, so I just learn casually. Maybe I'm very talented, and I can learn something. .Doesn’t mortals also cultivate immortals, right Goro?”

Long Xining immediately replied: "Of course there is. A few years ago, there was a young man who ascended to immortality, and he is in the heaven now. I will call you over next time and let you get to know each other." I didn't lie, it's just that ordinary mortals have ascended to become immortals, and they are also small loose immortals, who have no status in the immortal world.

Xiao Zidan was not interested in this at all, he shook his head and said: "You really have an idea later." However, he didn't stop him, after all, the chance of success in such a thing is too low, he only thought that Huaiying suddenly had an idea. She had a whim, maybe in a few days, she would have another idea.

As a result, on the second day, Huaiying actually learned the method of cultivation from Long Xining.

"...Sit cross-legged, sink your qi into your dantian, and move your breath freely..." Following Long Xining's formula, Huaiying slowly felt the so-called air flow in his body.In the end, her legs became numb and she fell off the bed.

Xiao Zidan couldn't laugh or cry seeing her in such a mess, he didn't know what to say.Wouldn't it be a bit too shocking to taunt a few more words?

"Why don't you just take a rest." Xiao Zidan persuaded with a wry smile, "I'm afraid this method of cultivating immortals is not easy, let's not worry, take your time." After finishing speaking, he couldn't help turning his head back and laughing.

Huaiying was also a little embarrassed, and murmured, "I'm just learning to play, so I don't really want to cultivate to become a fairy." She is obviously a fairy, so she doesn't need to practice.It must be that Long Xining's method is not suitable for her, or else, she doesn't feel it at all.Maybe she should go to Du Heng to learn from it?

However, if this is really the case, Xiao Zidan will definitely jump out of anger.

For several days in a row, Huaiying seldom went out, and occasionally went out for a walk, and Long Xining and Xiao Zidan always followed closely.Huaiying was used to them, and she didn't feel uncomfortable at all. She even thought it was very useful, just like bringing two bodyguards with her, and she could help carry things, which really killed two birds with one stone.

In the imperial study room, Du Heng was frowning and reviewing the memorial.The job of the emperor is not easy, with the lives and deaths of thousands of people on his shoulders, if he is not careful, he will easily become a foolish emperor.Although Du Heng is the son of the Emperor of Heaven, he doesn't have the idea that other gods are superior and regard everything as a humble dog.He was born with a compassionate heart, and he couldn't see the people suffering in the dawn, so he was the one who suffered.It's not that he never thought of asking Long Xiyan for help, but that guy was so cunning that he didn't accept tricks at all, but in all political affairs, he slipped faster than a rabbit.Du Heng had no choice but to bite the bullet and do it himself.

Just when he was dizzy from watching, he suddenly heard a report from the servants outside the palace in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Taifu Yan is asking to see you."

Only then did Du Heng raise his head, counting the time, the results of today's exam came out?He put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and said, "Xuan."

As soon as Mrs. Yan entered the study, Du Heng waved his hand to tell him not to be too polite, and asked again: "But the ranking of this subject has come out?"

Taifu Yan said with some embarrassment: "Several chief examiners have objections to the rankings, and I dare not be self-reliant, so I took the papers of the top ten examinees, and ask Your Majesty to make a decision." That is to say, in fact, that is Liu Mengai, the vice-examiner, is just against him.

Before the exam, the Great Master greeted him in private, gave him two names, and asked him to take care of one or two.Although the Grand Master has been favored by His Majesty these years, he rarely intervenes in the political affairs of the court. This is the first time that he has been asked.Not to mention that the Great Master and him are also very friendly on weekdays, even if they were not, he would not give the Great Master this face, so he quietly turned out the test papers of the two candidates, and after a closer look, not only the writing is brilliant, but also the argument is sufficient , It is really rare to have something to say.Not to mention high school, even the first and second grades.

Since there are no problems with these two articles, Taifu Yan naturally wanted to sell the face of the Great Master, so he classified one of them as the first class, No. 2 in the first class, and the other one was the first in the second class.Unexpectedly, the deputy chief examiner, Liu Meng, is a stubborn old man. I don't know where he heard that the Great Master wanted to protect the two candidates, but he shouted to push them away, otherwise, he would go to the emperor. Sued him, saying that he was engaging in malpractice for personal gain.

This Liu Meng is a stubborn old man who doesn't take hard things, and doesn't understand the world at all, Taifu Yan really believes that he dares to do this.However, even if the Great Master hadn't greeted him in private, the two should not have failed the ranking based on their knowledge.Taifu Yan was so angry that he slapped the table and quarreled with Liu Meng.Another deputy chief examiner saw that the situation was beyond control, so he proposed to let His Majesty the emperor decide it himself.This time, even Liu Meng had nothing to say.

"Present them all." Du Heng rubbed his temples and said helplessly.Taifu Yan hurriedly handed over a thick stack of papers to the palace servants.

Du Heng flipped through it quickly, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the expression on his face suddenly softened: "Although this Xiao Ling is not a common man, he is knowledgeable. But it’s rare to have a brilliant literary talent. I don’t think he can do other officials, so it’s good to go to the Imperial Academy to study.”

Taifu Yan was startled suddenly, hey, no wonder the Master of the State Teacher would go to say hello in person, it turns out that that person has been favored by His Majesty a long time ago.The destination has been decided, can the ranking still be low?Those who can go to the Hanlin Academy are all top three.Looking back, that old bastard Liu Meng dared to quarrel with him.

Du Heng soon found Xiao Zidan's paper again, his face became more and more relaxed, and he even smiled: "Both of them are good father and son, although Xiao Zidan is younger, compared to Xiao Ling, The style of writing is also a little immature, but his high-spirited aura is not as good as his father's. This child is completely different from his father's temperament, smart and alert, and has an extra tact. Given time, he will become a great weapon."

Mrs. Yan is about to cry, you said that, he is no good at all.After a long time, it turned out that these two were appointed by His Majesty the Emperor. Fortunately, he was not frightened back by Liu Meng, otherwise, if these two were really pushed down, he might not be able to keep his position as the Grand Tutor.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Taifu Yan praised without any psychological pressure, but he did not forget to wear small shoes for Liu Meng. However, Mr. Liu disagreed, he insisted that I had some shady relationship with these two candidates, and I wanted to push them away. I tried my best to argue with reason, so I have no choice but to ask His Majesty to make a decision."

Du Heng glanced at him thoughtfully, smiled again, and said, "In this case, please ask the Taifu to explain it to Master Liu for me."

That's a good thing, I'll have to sarcasm that stubborn old man Liu Meng to hit the wall in a while!Taifu Yan was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately responded respectfully, then asked again: "Then...Your Majesty, how should this ranking be arranged?"

Du Heng thought for a while, took out Xiao Zidan's paper, and said: "Xiao Ling's ranking is according to what you said. As for this Xiao Zidan, he is eighteen years old, with a good appearance and an extraordinary bearing. I think it is possible to mention him, just to be a candidate. The father and son took the scientific examination in the same year, one ranked second and the other a candidate, and it has made a good story."

It's not just a good story, it's a legend.Not to mention this dynasty, even the previous dynasty has never had such a legend, the whole capital will be boiling.I don't know if this young brother of the Xiao family is married or not, and there is a little granddaughter in his family... Taifu Yan went out with various moods.

After leaving the courtyard gate of the Imperial Study Room, Liu Meng was seen coming from a long distance. Seeing Mrs. Yan, Liu Meng snorted and turned his head, trying to draw a line with him.

"Lord Liu—" Taifu Yan decided not to be as knowledgeable as a stubborn old man with no brains like him, cleared his throat, and said slowly: "Just now I showed the papers of the ten candidates to His Majesty. "

Liu Meng's eyes flashed, and he said unhappily: "According to me, it's fine if the two papers with the surname Xiao are not submitted."

Taifu Yan said with a smile: "How can this be done? Your Majesty has already said that the Xiao family father and son are very good. Although Xiao Ling is not popular in general affairs, he has good knowledge, so he was selected as the second place in the list, and he will be sent to the Hanlin Academy to study in the future. Although Xiao Zidan is young, he is rare in literary talent, and is smart and quick-witted. He will become a great weapon in the future. I originally thought that he was young, so I ranked him as the first in the second class. I didn't want His Majesty to feel dissatisfied. , said that he has a good appearance and an extraordinary bearing, and he is the candidate for Tanhualang... This is really a good story!"

Liu Meng was not stupid, there was still something he didn't understand, so he stomped his feet angrily, and shouted angrily: "Then the national teacher is so unreasonable, since he is a talent that His Majesty likes, why didn't he say it clearly, but was so sneaky, Didn't this mean to frame me?" He cursed in a low voice, turned around and walked back, and said, "Oh, my old bones are dying, and my head hurts, and my body hurts too, and I'll be sick tomorrow. I will leave the matter of the exam to Mr. Yan for the time being."

Taifu Yan called him a few times in the back with a low voice, and said loudly on purpose: "I will take the imperial doctor to see you in a while."

Liu Meng almost hated him to death.

In the afternoon, the exam list was posted, and the news that Xiao's father and son had won the second place and the No. [-] spot spread throughout the capital, and the small courtyard of the Xiao's family was immediately crowded.

All the officials in the capital are well-informed and have good ears and eyes. Not long after, the news that the Xiao family father and son were handpicked by His Majesty spread widely, and even the words His Majesty said in the imperial study that day were vividly learned. Of course, saying It's hard to say whether it's accurate or not.The only certainty is that the Xiao family father and son will be of great use.

In the palace, Concubine Feng was lying on the couch slowly eating melon seeds, as if she didn't see Miss Feng's anxious and angry appearance at all.

"Eldest sister, you really can't take it lightly. You didn't see her appearance. She was obviously a shabby householder, but she still put on a ladylike appearance, and ignored me, but your majesty and the national teacher It has been maintained all the time, and now even the father and brother in the family have benefited. This kind of decency, not to mention our family, who in the whole capital can compare." Miss Feng Er said eagerly, seeing that Concubine Feng Gui still didn't react at all. , I became more and more annoyed.

She was ashamed in front of Huaiying last time, and she was put in confinement after returning home. She didn't go out for a full month. She hated Huaiying to death in her heart, and now she heard that Xiao's father and son are so beautiful, Where can I hold back, I immediately came to find Concubine Feng Gui to file a complaint.Who knew that Concubine Feng Gui didn't react at all as if she didn't hear it.

"Sister, I'm afraid you don't know yet. In the past few months, His Majesty has been walking in Loofah Alley twice in three days, and now he is so flattering Xiao's father and son. People outside say that His Majesty is probably planning to become a queen."

The movements of Concubine Feng's hands froze, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she said a little unhappyly: "You have to rely on some reasoning to make up nonsense, wouldn't it make people laugh out loud when you tell such lies."

Miss Feng Er immediately became anxious, and said in a loud voice: "Eldest sister thinks I'm lying to you? How many pairs of eyes are watching in the capital? If you don't believe me, ask someone to find out. I just don't deserve it for you. How many years have you served His Majesty, it is too wronged to be suppressed by such a shabby household who appeared out of nowhere."

Concubine Feng's heart moved slightly, but her face was still calm. She picked up her teacup and smiled, then shook her head and said, "So what if it's true? I can't guess what His Majesty is thinking. If he likes someone , can I stop it?"

Second Miss Feng asked anxiously: "Could it be that eldest sister just watched her enter the palace?"

"Why should I stop?" Concubine Feng Gui sighed quietly, her voice was soft and helpless, "The Xiao family is currently in favor, so I went to pour a basin of cold water, didn't I mean to make His Majesty despise me? His Majesty's thoughts are Just like the clouds on the other side of the day, erratic and unpredictable, I just want to be safe for the rest of my life."

Second Miss Feng gritted her teeth, her eyes flickered for a while, and finally she couldn't help but whispered a few words in Concubine Feng's ear. Concubine Feng's eyes lit up when she heard the words, but she quickly returned to her usual lazy manner. Looking at the color, he said slowly: "It's just a charlatan, how can they take their words seriously."

"Big sister, if you don't try, how will you know?" Second Miss Feng persuaded with a straight face, "I have seen that master before, although he is young, he is a fairy, and he has the ability to call wind and rain, which is absolutely extraordinary. Quack warlocks are comparable."

Concubine Feng Gui didn't speak, she picked up the teacup and drank a few sips, and after a while, she said in a low voice: "In that case, you can ask that person for Zhang Fu, I'll give it a try."
