[Comprehensive martial arts] Mr. Psychic Medium

When Zhong Yanqiu and his party arrived at the capital, there was still some time before the exam. Generally, most of the students who went to Beijing to catch the exam would arrive earlier. First, they could make contacts earlier and gain a reputation. Second, it was also to prevent There is a delay on the road or the acclimatization is too late to alleviate, which will affect your performance.

After ten years of cold windows, no one dares to be negligent.

Therefore, no matter what you think of Pang Taishi, the chief examiner of this subject, whether you respect or fear his power, or despise him for playing power tricks, you must go to Pang Taishi's mansion to pay a visit to get some joints, even if you can't get in. I have to leave some money and treasures to please them. I don't want Taishi Pang to support them so much, but just don't deliberately suppress them because they haven't come to see them.

The current state affairs of the court, since the death of Emperor Zhenzong a few years ago, Emperor Renzong became a great treasure, and the daughter of the Pang family was appointed as the queen, and her father Pang Ji, the head of the country, was granted the title of Grand Master, and a group of people who followed the power formed a clique to bully the emperor for years. When he was young, he relied on the power of the head of the country to eliminate dissidents, which meant arbitrarily monopolizing power.It's just that although the emperor was young, he also knew how to distinguish right from wrong, and had the elders and ministers left behind by the late emperor. Pang Ji had no choice but to guard against him.

People at that time talked about Taishi Pang with contempt, playing tricks, treacherous villains, arrogance and domineering abuse of power, even more upright courtiers would not deal with him very well, if it weren't for Taishi Pang's daughter who was the head of the palace and always dignified Xianhui never made half a mistake, and won the emperor's favor. I'm afraid that the Pang family would have been murdered long ago.

At this time, Su Mengzhen was also talking about Pang Ji.

"Grandmaster Pang still has abilities." He spoke slowly, as if he was not talking about the mighty Grandmaster Pang, but ordinary people everywhere, "Don't just look at him as a domineering and powerful man. Regardless of the floods in the south of the Yangtze River or the snow disasters in the northern Xinjiang, he handled each and every one of them very beautifully, if not for this, his head would have been chopped off hundreds of years ago."

I'm not afraid that he is arrogant and domineering, but I am afraid that he is muddy and cannot support the wall.

"The emperor needs him to stay in the court." The most important thing for the court is to balance. Once a family dominates, even if that side is the loyal and upright minister left by the first emperor, without Pang Ji, a traitor, who attracts firepower in front of them. The next one who will be fired before the internal fighting is definitely the emperor, so the emperor will never deal with Pang Ji lightly, and even reward him from time to time, stirring up the competition between the Qing Dynasty in the court to maintain the absoluteness of his position .

If there is only one voice under the hand, then it is not far from being placed as a decoration.

Bao Zheng nodded thoughtfully. If he was the candidate who didn't know anything about taking the exam, he would probably have a bad impression of Pang Ji. The truth is that there are no fish when it is clear, and Pang Ji is the fish that muddies the water.

The court needs upright and upright officials admonishing ministers, and the court needs courtiers who understand the rules of the game of benefit exchange. The court where everyone is honest and upright as he imagined when he was young is too ideal, so ideal that it is unrealistic.

Everyone is upright and clean, so the world can be peaceful, Haiyan and Heqing?

nonexistent.

When he first saw the world's great power and tactics at Su Mengzhen, he said that he wanted to make the world peaceful and peaceful, and the people would not pick up lost things on the road and close their doors at night, but now he only wants one thing: the same heart, no change in poverty, unyielding in power, no matter what you do. Well deserved.

Are you short of breath?

Mostly, I just stepped on the ground and learned to move forward step by step.

Bao Zheng's father, Bao Suzhi, also bought a mansion in the capital, but Bao Suzhi was transferred to Fujian a few years ago, and this mansion has been vacant, and it has long been difficult to live in, and it will take several months to repair it. scene.

The carriage drove all the way into the stronghold of Jinfengdriyu Building in the capital. Others didn't know it, but Zhong Yanqiu saw it as soon as he got off the carriage. Yes, there are tall wooden pagodas, four tall buildings stand at the four corners, and the lake in the center is clear and bright, with the same color of clouds, water and sky.

The tall spire casts a somewhat lonely shadow.

"Let's go to the red building to rest." Su Mengzhen said.

Carved beams and painted buildings, gorgeous and brilliant, the Red House is a place for banquets, hospitality, and banquet preparation.

"Young master." A man was already waiting at the entrance of the red building. He was about 27 or [-] years old. He was dressed in rich clothes and jade crowns, but his eyes were gorgeous and romantic that even the rich clothes and jade crowns could not suppress.

"Bai Jintang, I am the Chief Manager of the Golden Wind and Rain Building." Su Mengzhen introduced.

Zhong Yanqiu said: "The one you picked up a few years ago?"

When he said picking it up, he was really not exaggerating. At that time, Bai Jintang was framed and besieged by the enemy and killed most of his life. When he was picked up by Su Mengzhen, he was almost dead. In the scope of the world, Zhong Yanqiu's internal strength is enough to protect his heart, otherwise he might not be able to save it.

Bao Zheng had never been on the rivers and lakes before, so he had almost no impression of Bai Jintang, but Zhan Zhao was familiar with this name.

Traveling all over the world, making friends with many friends, and fighting for righteousness, Bai Jintang was 16 years old when he fought for fame in the Jianghu by himself. Zhan Zhao was still a child. It can even be said that he grew up listening to Bai Jintang's legendary stories.

"I have admired your name for a long time." He cupped his hands and said in a graceful manner without showing any timidity.

"Thank you." Bai Jintang smiled and clasped his hands back. He was born very well, and his smile was even more radiant. His brows and eyes were as bright as peaches and plums in March. No wonder people negotiating with him couldn't help it. To add a little more concessions.

Obviously calculating his age carefully, he is also a man in his thirties.

The banquet was already prepared in the red building. Considering that everyone had no appetite after the exhausting journey, most of the dishes were light and appetizing. After a brief meal, Bao Zheng and Zhan Zhao went to rest in the yard prepared for them. Bai Jintang Then followed Su Mengzhen to the study, Zhong Yanqiu originally wanted to go back to the room to rest, but just as he took a step, Su Mengzhen caught the young man, and went to the study together to check the mountain of ledgers and documents.

"Respect the teacher." Zhong Yanqiu stared at Su Mengzhen. Although he looked like a young man in his twenties in the eyes of others, Zhong Yanqiu was still not as tall as Su Mengzhen from Su Mengzhen's perspective. The little Douding's appearance, even with a straight face, is not half majestic at all, but a little more indescribably cute.

He couldn't help but reached out and pinched the extraordinarily round and soft cheeks, then put down his hands as if nothing had happened: "You have been resting for many years."

When he was so busy developing his power that he was almost alive, Zhong Yanqiu was in charge of reading and writing in Xiaobao Village, teaching his apprentices, and his leisure was so enviable.

Zhong Yanqiu looked at him silently for a few seconds, was defeated without any surprise, and sighed: "I can't guarantee that I can do it well."

Just be better than what he planned.Su Mengzhen thought so, and distributed more than half of the account books on the table to Zhong Yanqiu.

Zhong Yanqiu knows how to read account books, but it doesn't mean he likes to read account books. After struggling with the full numbers for half an hour, he decisively dragged out from nowhere a ghost who had been dead for an unknown number of years. It's the accountant's job, and it's quick and easy to handle the accounts, which is many times more efficient than Zhong Yanqiu's own.

When it was getting dark, Su Mengzhen put down his pen and asked someone to bring food in, but he didn't ask Bai Jintang to accompany him again. The reason was very simple——the moment the sky completely darkened, Su Mengzhen's body instantly changed from solidification to solidification. It is illusory, the shadows disappear under the lights, and it shakes like water waves when blown by the wind.

His cultivation can only support his appearance during the day, but at night he will turn back into a ghostly form, and no one can see him except Zhong Yanqiu.

Even Bao Zheng, who Zhong Yanqiu said had a deep relationship with "over there", can only vaguely feel the existence of something, but he can't see its whereabouts at all.

Zhong Yanqiu put down his pen and rubbed his wrists - with his cultivation level, writing such a few characters would not cause sore wrists, but it was just for show, and then took out a knife from his lapel.

The blade was rippling with water red, like the soft sleeves of a dancer dancing.

Red sleeve knife.

Su Mengzhen leaned over, and her illusory body was lightly gathered into the knife like smoke and mist.

The Red Hidden Knife is the carrier of his soul, like a room that only he can enter, allowing him to rest and sleep peacefully and recharge his batteries.

Zhong Yanqiu tilted his wrist, and his face was reflected by the edge of the blade. The child's round, bun-shaped face had an expression that was so pale that it almost looked like an expression. He tried to pull the corners of his mouth, and two dimples appeared on his cheeks.

Tsk, it's ugly.

Carefully put the red sleeve knife away, he covered his mouth and yawned, and walked into his room familiarly - the same orientation as before, and the furnishings inside were also very similar, and there were a few things floating in the air. The cool scent of incense is just right for the moonlight outside the window.

After all, it is still a child's body, which cannot withstand sleepiness.

It took Su Mengzhen two days to deal with the backlog of affairs in Jinfengdriyulou. Bai Jintang had a good impression of Zhan Zhao, and he was enthusiastically trying to recruit him for Jinfengdriyulou, but Zhan Zhao was relatively more I like the unrestrained life of wandering around the world now, so I politely declined.

At first, Bao Zheng settled down and rested for a few days, and then carefully reviewed the book for a few days. At this time, there are many literary clubs in the capital, and students are everywhere. After joining in the fun and attending several literary clubs, Bao Zheng lost his mind. When I lost interest, I just closed the door and concentrated on reviewing the book.

Not only are the words of the sages in the Four Books and Five Classics, but he also dug up the mechanics, handyman, farmland and water conservancy that Zhong Yanqiu taught him, and carefully studied them. When he had nothing to do, he went to the village on the outskirts of Beijing for a few laps, and sat in the examination room. At that time, he had already made a decision.

Bao Zheng believed that his knowledge was not bad, and he had the support of his senior brothers behind him, so he would not be intentionally lowered in the ranking. As long as he took the exam seriously, he would definitely have no problem entering the Imperial Academy, but compared to learning from books and writing articles , he wanted to do something practical.

He wants to let it out.

As a parent official, I really do something for the people.
