Treasure Hunt

Strolling until noon, the two came to the "Golden Wind and Jade Dew Building". Once the Golden Wind and Jade Dew meet, they will win but there are countless people in the world.Jinfengyululou is a famous restaurant in the imperial city.Dishes are delicious and affordable.Both dignitaries and ordinary people can afford it.

The two sat in a corner of the lobby, Liu Niaoxiao took the menu handed over by the waiter, and ordered his favorite dish.Afterwards, he handed the recipe to the waiter, and said to Yang Wenyu: "Brother Wenyu, I ordered your favorite dish, so don't worry about it anymore, it's okay."

Yang Wenyu nodded, feeling a little sour.

"Hey, who am I supposed to be? Isn't this the pharmacy scholar who failed to make the list twice in the scientific examination?" Suddenly, a mocking sound interrupted the harmony between the two.

Two brocade-clothed sons walked towards Yang Wenyu's table.

Yang Wenyu looked up and saw that it was Li Jianyi, the eldest son of the Huguogong family.

Liu Nianiao was a little anxious when she heard this, and said, "Brother Jianyi, how can you say that?!"

When Li Jianyi heard this, he folded the fan in his hand and said to Liu Niaoyao: "Am I wrong? Niaoyao, I am doing it for your own good too. Can you recognize the reality? You are going to marry my second brother in the future. All day long Mixing with this kid, how do you let outsiders see the Li and Liu families?"

Hearing this, Liu Niaoyou was so anxious that she almost cried, and quickly explained to Yang Wenyu: "Brother Wenyu, don't listen to his nonsense, the marriage between me and Brother Jianbei was decided by my father when I was full moon. I'm still young, so I can't count, Brother Wenyu, listen to me..."

"Niaoyou, I want to go back to the clinic." Yang Wenyu said softly.

"Yeah, let's go back then." After speaking, Liu Niaoyou immediately stood up.

Yang Wenyu was about to get up, but was blocked by Li Jianyi. "Niaoyou, you go outside and wait first, I have something to say to him." Li Jianyi said.

Liu Niaoyou looked at Yang Wenyu worriedly, not wanting to leave.

"Go and wait for me outside first." Yang Wenyu said.

Hearing Yang Wenyu's words, Liu Niaoyou pouted and nodded, reluctantly walked out of the restaurant.

Seeing Liu Niaoyao walk out of the shop.Li Jianyi then sat across from Yang Wenyu and said, "Your name is... Yang Wenyu, right?"

Yang Wenyu nodded and said, "Say what you have to say." Yang Wenyu thought, Li Jianyi's trouble this time was nothing more than keeping him away from Liu Niaoyao.For the rest, he really couldn't think of what the two of them had to say.

Li Jianyi lowered his head and smiled, and said, "Don't worry, I'll ask you first, do you know who you are?"

"The daughter of Liu Shiming, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, the Fourth Miss of the Liu family." Yang Wenyu replied.

Li Jianyi nodded and said, "Yes, that's right, you are quite right. Then do you know, in my opinion, who is Niaoyou?"

This time, Yang Wenyu did not answer.Li Jianyi continued: "Since I can remember, the first time I saw Niao Niao, I have always known her as my second sister. My Li family has no daughter, and my mother likes Niao Niao very much. The two families have a marriage contract. So I have always regarded her as my own sister."

Yang Wenyu frowned and said, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"My first question just now, who is Niaoyiao, you answered quickly and rightly. Of course, I also believe that is the most sincere answer in your heart. Because of this, I think that you and Niaoyiao are not at all together. You won't be happy." Li Jianyi put away his smile and said, "You subconsciously answered Niaoyou's status. But did I ask about status? I think you may pay more attention to status than I thought. Not Niaoyou itself."

Yang Wenyu frowned, and was about to explain, but was interrupted by Li Jianyi.

"You don't need to explain in a hurry, just listen to me first. Maybe you will pass the exam in the future, but when will that be? Are you going to let you wait for you to grow old? Not to mention the will of Liu, even Liu Uncle will definitely not agree."

Yang Wenyu snorted coldly, and said, "It's not like you princes and nobles are a nest of snakes and rats. Now that the government is corrupt, those truly talented people can't show their ambitions. Do you dare to say that you didn't bribe the examiners who graded the papers?"

Li Jianyi nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. I admit that there is such a thing. But, so what. What is my family background, it is all my own, why can't I use it? Mr. Yang Well, being an official in court not only looks at your personal ability, but also your sophistication. We noble children are indeed not as well-read as you are in poetry and books, but when it comes to human sophistication, we are naturally much more thorough than you."

Yang Wenyu did not speak this time, as if he was considering the credibility of Li Jianyi's words.

Seeing that Yang Wenyu was silent and not in a hurry, Li Jianyi said, "Young Master Yang, as an official in the court, whether you can be reused by the emperor, and whether you can be supported by the officials. The most important thing is your own luck, followed by your family background And contacts. In contrast, reading poetry and books can only be ranked third, and it is the least important thing. This is why many officials have some military advisers in their families, just to help them advise. "

"Why did you tell me this?" Yang Wenyu said in a daze.Although most officials know these words well, the window paper cannot be pierced, and after all, they cannot be brought out in the open.

Li Jianyi played with the folding fan in his hand, and said: "The reason why I tell you this is that I hope you understand that those who can become officials and dignitaries may not necessarily be well-educated in poetry and books, but they must be well-versed in poetry and good at life. As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. With a personality like yours, if you are isolated and helpless in the court, not only will you not be favored by the emperor, but you will also be gnawed away by others! Do you want to let you live a life of hardship with you? You are still young, if you leave her now, maybe she will be sad for a while, but after a long time, she will be relieved."

Yang Wenyu fell into deep thought.Li Jianyi had already made his words very clear, and asked him to leave Liu Nianiao.

However, it has to be said that Li Jianyi is worthy of being a man in the court. He speaks smoothly and analyzes the pros and cons clearly. At least, this made Yang Wenyu a little shaken.

Seeing that Yang Wenyu was still hesitant, Li Jianyi was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "I'm not afraid that you will go to the government to report me when I tell you this, but I believe you are not this kind of person." Li Jianyi said here, looking at Yang Wenyu sincerely , and continued: "I also know that you are not unintentional about you. How about it, I can give you a chance."

Yang Wenyu asked aloud, "What opportunity?"

Li Jianyi said: "I can send you to the army as an errand. Since you have read a lot of poetry and books, you can become a military adviser. If you can make meritorious service, it would be a good thing to be named a marquis. But..."

"But what?" Yang Wenyu asked.

Li Jianyi twitched his lips and said casually: "However, the conditions in the army are difficult. I want to come to you, a weak scholar... I don't know if you can bear it..."

"I can bear it!" Yang Wenyu said unwillingly.

It has to be said that Li Jianyi's words first made him see the reality clearly, and when he saw he hesitated, he threw out an olive branch, and finally used a small trick to lure him into the trap.Get him far away, and he will never see Liu Niaoyiao again.Yang Wenyu admitted that even though he understood that everything Li Jianyi said was just to get Liu Niaoliu to give up, Yang Wenyu still took the initiative to fall into the trap.

Because Yang Wenyu understood that what Li Jianyu said was true, even if he waited for the next scientific examination, he was still not sure whether he could pass the examination.Do you have to make Liu Niaoyao wait for another three years?Or five years?Or longer?He could afford to wait, but Niao Niao couldn't wait.

Li Jianyi smiled brightly when he heard Yang Wenyu's words, and said, "Don't answer me in such a hurry, go back and prepare, and I will send someone to find you again." After speaking, he got up and left.

Yang Wenyu walked out of the restaurant with a heavy heart, and immediately saw Liu Niaolang waiting outside the restaurant.

Yang Wenyu showed a wry smile, and said, "Niaoyou, what kind of person do you think the second young master of the Li family is?"

Liu Niaoling played with the jade pendant on her waist, and said casually: "Brother Jianbei...well...he is similar to my third brother, both civil and military, even the emperor praised him as a pillar of talent..." Speaking of Here, Liu Niaoxi paused, and hurriedly said: "Brother Wenyu, don't get me wrong, although he is very kind to me, I don't like him."

Yang Wenyu touched Liu Niaoyou's head with a wry smile, then lowered his head to hide the loneliness in his eyes.

Both civil and military, a pillar of talent, a celebrity in front of the emperor, the second young master of the Huguo Duke's Mansion, is very good to Liu Niao... It is indeed more suitable for Liu Niaoyou than himself.

Yang Wenyu said softly: "Young... I think... I want to join the army." Liu Niao was taken aback when she heard this, and pulled Yang Wenyu's sleeve and said, "Why do you want to join the army? My third brother just doesn't listen to his father. I have to go to the north with the army, and I don’t come back several times throughout the year, brother Wen Yu.... Let’s not join the army, okay... I won’t be able to see you like that...I can ask my father to give it to you Find an official job, I believe that once you step into the official career, you will be able to make great achievements..."

Yang Wenyu interrupted Liu Niaoyou's words and said, "Being a centurion is better than being a scholar."

Looking at Yang Wenyu's appearance, Liu Niaoyao was anxious and angry, and said, "Do you know that there are no eyes for swords and guns on the battlefield, what if you get hurt? What if you... you die on the battlefield. ...Then what should I do?..." As she spoke, tears gathered in Xiao Nizi's eyes, as if they were about to pour down.

Yang Wenyu looked at Liu Niaoyao's grievance, and couldn't bear it. He didn't know the danger of the battlefield and the hardships of joining the army, but he had no other way out. Could it be that Liu Niaoyao really wanted to ask Liu Shiming to find him a job? Part-time job?Yang Wenyu's remaining self-esteem told him that he was not allowed to do this.Otherwise, he will not be able to hold his head up in the Liu family for the rest of his life, let alone propose marriage to the Liu family.
