Sheng Shian

The six-foot-high coral was cut off in the middle, and the upper half of it fell to the ground and shattered into worthless rotten branches and leaves. Everyone was shocked and looked at Master Jijiu cautiously.

The huge sound, like an ancient morning bell, struck Wen Tong's brain, and he escaped from the great despair and woke up from the great insult. He looked at the half-surviving red coral ornament with hazy eyes... …

Even if it is shattered, it must maintain its only remaining branches.

Wen Tong stepped on the crimson coral fragments and walked by. He stood in the crowd and said: "A gentleman avoids difficulties with thrift and virtue, and should not be honored with salary. It is an honor to be clear about the classics, and it is a shame to be greedy for vanity and shallow and ignorant."

Two or three blushed with shame.

He squatted down and picked up a piece of coral fragments, "Jade is fresh but not stained, broken but not scratched, tolerant but not contended, moist and moist, and penetrates the five virtues. Coral is as bright and moist as ruby, but it has no integrity and virtue." , sucking mayflies, depositing scum, flamboyant and vulgar! You talents are all selected from thousands of troops, and they brought this vulgar thing into the Imperial College. This official is really heartbroken!"

"If you smash the coral today, it won't stand if it doesn't break! I also hope that all the supervisors will take this as a warning, concentrate on discussing the Tao, be cautious in words and deeds, and don't do such exaggerated things again."

Wen Tong strode out, but firmly embedded the coral fragments in his palm. Blood flowed out from his hand, which made the coral more colorful.

He scolded with righteous words, but every word was scolding himself.

He is a coral that sucked mayflies and was slaughtered from sediment slag. When there are many followers, he also thinks that he is jade. He shows off his might in the bright and elegant hall, until he is lightly tapped by the powerful and shattered into pieces. Only then did he realize that he was still a coral.

No one will sing that he would rather be broken than whole, because he was branded with a dishonorable name when he came.

The people in the hall are all rich and noble sons, who are held by others with big palms. Seeing this ferocious scene for a while, they were bluffed three points and looked at each other in blank dismay.

Those who seem to be unfair, feel that they have stuffed money, why are they subjected to such humiliation.But when Master Jijiu praised him for his incomparable talents, his heart drifted a little, and he felt a little bit of the desire to study.

Ying Changwang only looked at Wentong at this time. He felt that Wentong's trip was weird. It was completely different from the way he tried to win him over before, and he blatantly slapped these people who sell officials and nobles in the face. Presumably, the big exam did not go well. understood.

However, what he said just now was full of righteous indignation, and there was quite a bit of character hidden in it. You should look forward to it and think that Wen Tong is not a full-fledged treacherous minister.

But not nice people either.And this kind of person who has become a bitch and still erects a memorial archway is often the most pitiful and the best to manipulate.Bah, why did he catch the market vibes again...

Ying Changwang realized that his opportunity had come.

He followed Wen Tong out of the hall.

Wen Tongxing had been around for a long time, and when he saw that he was still there, he stopped, "Your article is very good, I selected you to enter the list, and I did not show favoritism."

He smiled strangely again, who should he explain to?The corners of his eyes were raised, revealing a great sense of fatigue, and he didn't even want to care about whether Ying Changwang had something to do with him.

But Ying Changwang just took out a tassel from his bosom and put it in Wentong's hand.

There is also a word "文" in seal script embroidered on the tassel.

Wen Tong was stunned. He thought that the other party would at least take advantage of the unresolved case to blackmail some benefits. After all, the Guozijian was so deep that it was a hundred times more difficult for ordinary people to get ahead than the Imperial Academy.

It's even harder than him...

"My lord was born in a poor family, but he was able to serve as a sacrificial wine for the Imperial Academy in less than two years. Even Shen Taifu, who was outstanding in the world, did not have such an achievement. The students have always admired your lord, so they found this thing in the body of lord Feng that day, and they were selfish. Put it away." Ying Changwang bowed, "Students know that this trip violates the law, but your lord is at such a critical time for the exam, students can't bear to see your lord worrying about other things."

Wentong raised his eyes.

Ying Changwang seemed to be embarrassed to say: "The student knows that it is extremely hypocritical to say this at this time, but the student has never intended to use this thing for personal gain. I hope the adults will learn from it."

Wen Tong thought of his first-ranked test paper, yes, such a talent, why does he need his help...

The rare Qingliu soothed Wentong's poor mind at this time, and he suddenly shook Ying Changwang's hand, "Your writing is so heart-wrenching and soul-stirring, how can you be such a smug man, I believe you." of."

But Ying Changwang has this intention, of course he is conceited that he is unparalleled in talent, if he is admitted to the imperial examination, he doesn't have to worry about it, but the Imperial College...he looked at the idiots in the hall far away, the water is very deep...

He wants revenge, and he will not let go of any opportunity.

Ying Changwang paid homage to Chao Wentong who couldn't be more grateful, "Students will definitely live up to the trust of adults today!"

Wen Tong nodded, and remembered this person in his heart.

……

Shen Shi received a small note from Fushun when he was in court. He glanced at the word "Number One" on it and smiled in relief.

The son of a hero is also so outstanding, he did not disgrace the general's reputation.

Shen Shi blew his whistle, and a white falcon flew in. The white falcon's relatives were tight, and they got into Shen Shi's neckline, wishing that the whole bird could be buried in Shen Shi's arms.

Shen Shi squeezed its little furry neck, and pulled it out from the opening of his clothes, "Stop making trouble, send a message for me."

Bai Falcon looked at him sadly, and rubbed against his palm again, as if unwilling to leave.

Shen was helpless, and moved his face closer.

Bai Falcon lightly pecked his vulnerable side face, then bent his small eyes, flapped his small wings and walked towards the small piece of paper, then pecked it with his beak, and stuffed it into the small bamboo tube at his feet.

It flapped its wings and flew up again, flying one high and one low, one high and one low, very happy.

Shen Shi shook his head.

At this time, there was the sound of birdsong outside the house, Shen Shi closed his eyes, walked outside, and kindly passed by him and asked him, "Where is the master going?"

"Look at the rankings released by the Imperial College."

He said kindly: "Master just came back from Dali Temple, let's rest for a while, I will go to see the list."

Shen agreed.

As soon as the kindness left, there was a bird singing behind Shen Shi, and then a person appeared, "My lord, I found the account book."

Shen frowned, "Have you met anyone from Lord Hou?"

Shu Huai walked out with several bandages wrapped around his body, "It happened, but we went early, we removed all the things under Du Yinglin."

"What's wrong with your injury?"

"I found traces when I went down the mountain. I led them away alone. I was shot a few arrows during the process, and it didn't hurt."

Shen cupped his hands, "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's all the duty of a courtier." Shuhuai took out an account book from his pocket and handed it to him, as well as a booklet.

Shen didn't look at the account book, but read the booklet first, and was shocked when he saw it. There were three mines inside, thousands of treasures, ten thousand taels of gold and silver...

Shuhuai presented another land deed.

Shen was dumbfounded, and he asked, "Compared to when Meng Yang ransacked his home?"

Shu Huai said, "More than [-]%."

Shen Shi was deeply moved by admiration, there is someone who can earn so much money in a lifetime, and Meng Yang can be regarded as a capable person.

Shuhuai asked: "My lord, the account book is in hand, shall we proceed?"

"No hurry." Shen Shi waved his hand, then opened the account book, he looked at it with heavy eyebrows and said, "This account book is too easy to come by..."

Shuhuai said: "The things on the list have been checked by the subordinates, and they are all true."

The implication is that the books should be correct.

Shen Shi still shook his head, "Wait a little longer."

Shu Huai said yes.

Shen picked out a few pages of innocuous characters in the account book, memorized them with a few pages of dignitaries, and returned the account book to Shu Huai after a while.

Shu Huai asked: "Sir, don't you need it?"

"Not safe."

Shen Shi took the list and drove out to the Hou's Mansion. A Liang opened the vermilion deep door, and when he saw him, his face lit up with joy.

"It's really strange. When I see adults, I feel very kind."

Shen Shi lowered his head slightly and chuckled.

He suddenly remembered something, and said to A Liang: "Ge is getting old, I'm afraid Song Zhili will be depressed. You and her learned painting together when you were young, so go and see her when you have time."

A Liang thought about the past, and trembled three times, "My lord, I have never seen Song Qianjin's savage appearance when she was a child. Every day, she forced me to wear double buns, lick my lips, and be her school girl...I...I see her now. Take a detour!"

"...I can't blame you for the past." Shen Shi paused, and took back the unfinished words.

I can't blame you for never wanting to go to Ge Lao Mansion in the past.

"What was it in the past?" A Liang asked.

Shen Shi looked at him, his thoughts flew away, and he remembered the time when the little girl's teeth were exposed.

Song Fengan asked her what kind of person she wanted to marry in the future?

She put her arms around her neck and said, babbling, Tai Fu Tai Fu.

Song Feng'an trained her, so stop talking nonsense.

She turned her pink face into a bun, then jumped into A Liang's arms and said, then I want to marry such a fairy sister.

The crowd burst into laughter.

A Liang was five years older than her at that time, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to get into the ground, but he had to tie his hair into a flying fairy bun, put flowers on his eyebrows, and paint his mouth red, to coax this little ancestor.

Nightmare.

A Liang shook his head, came back to his senses, and wanted to ask how the adults knew that I learned painting with Song Qianjin in the past?

But looking back, only the long corridor is empty and the grass is lingering.

Shen Shi slipped away quickly, because he realized that he had slipped his words again, and was afraid that Ah Liang would continue to question him, so he took advantage of the other party's daze, left a message that Master Hou was here, and then ran away.

But where is Liu Changze?

Shen walked leisurely in the yard, and it was the first time he visited the Hou's mansion in such a leisurely way.

He suddenly remembered the painting "The Picture of the Prosperity of the Great Qi".Following the route in his memory, he walked through the corridor of the glazed kissing beast and stopped in front of a pavilion in the water.

what happened?

Wasn't it a treasure house before?

He has been to the Hou Mansion no less than a hundred times, and he can walk out with his eyes closed. He has never seen this gazebo before.

Shen walked in curiously.

Suddenly a gust of cool wind blew from the lake, blowing the light and thin white gauze of the gazebo slowly like a wave of smoke.

Shen Shi saw a person sitting in the lake pavilion.

His eyebrows are like stars, and he is unmistakably handsome.

The person in the pavilion raised his eyes suddenly, his sharp eyes were like a sharp knife that broke through the spring water in his heart.

The waves of blue waves rise, unable to cover the beating heartbeat.
