great mandate

Let's talk about Song Ling's side, he managed to meet Luo Jinyu in his dream, but before he could be tender, he was greatly stimulated by Luo Jinyu's indifferent attitude, lost his sanity, and bit Luo Jinyu.After Luo Jinyu got out of the dream, Song Ling gradually calmed down, regretted it very much, and tried every means to sneak into Luo Jinyu's dream again.

Luo Jinyu dreamed of the nine-tailed white fox again.

But he didn't dodge, standing under the peach blossom tree, and asked the nine-tailed white fox who was sitting there with his tail in a very dignified way: "Did you bite the tooth mark on my neck last time?"

Hearing this, Song Ling felt guilty immediately, rolled his round eyeballs, pretending that he didn't understand, and looked up to see the peach blossoms fall.This is the peach blossom forest he specially transformed for Luo Jinyu, because Taoist Priest Yu planted a lot of them in his cave.

Luo Jinyu couldn't help but laugh: "This appearance is exactly the same."

Wouldn't it be the same as Shen Wuji's usual appearance when he felt guilty and looked around?

Since Luo Jinyu figured out how to guide his benefactor to achieve success, he became more patient and lenient towards Shen Wuji. He squatted in front of this white fox, and asked suspiciously: "But why, when you bit me in your dream, I unexpectedly After waking up, can you really find tooth marks on your neck?"

This matter is too mysterious, Luo Jinyu can't believe it.

Song Ling thought in his heart, when you were born in this life, I left the imprint of my spirit fox clan on you. You and I are one husband and wife. It's nothing to meet others in a dream, but we are no different in our dreams as we are outside. Naturally, tooth marks will be left, but the injury will not be as serious.

But now he is trapped by insufficient spiritual knowledge, unable to change into a human form, and unable to speak human words, he can only groan, stretch out his fluffy and soft tail and wrap it around Luo Jinyu's wrist, as if apologizing.

Luo Jinyu thought about it herself, and felt that this matter was indeed too mysterious, it would be better to believe that she was bitten by a dog in Shen's residence.

He stopped thinking about the tooth marks, but he was worried that this weird white fox would bite him again, so he tried his best not to offend it. I once went out to enjoy the flowers with my three or five friends. At that time, I was young and high-spirited. I just said, "The peach blossoms bloom first when they are warm in spring, and no one will see the bright and beautiful ones." Berry Moss". *

The world is unpredictable, the ups and downs are impermanent, and it is depressing after all.

Now if he hadn't been obsessed with going to Dangzi Mountain to find out and see if he could revive his mother, he would have no other hope.

Luo Jinyu felt a little self-deprecating again.

He secretly said, I told Shen Wuji with certainty that I wanted him to be loyal to the country, to serve the people, and to achieve good fortune, but who knows, I only know how to tell him, but my heart is like stagnant water, and I don't want to talk to outsiders anymore Get involved.Such a person, how hypocritical!

Luo Jinyu's cheeks blushed involuntarily, and a look of sadness floated in his eyes, for a moment he forgot where he was, and there was a white fox with a strange temperament beside him.

Song Ling sat with Luo Jinyu for a while, although he didn't know why Luo Jinyu looked sad, but his heart still hurt, he moved secretly to Luo Jinyu's side, tentatively leaned on Luo Jinyu, scratched Luo Jinyu with his tail The palm of gold and jade.

Luo Jinyu turned around, turned to look at the white fox, and after a while, said in a low voice: "It's much better when you don't talk."

During these days of getting along, Luo Jinyu couldn't tell that Shen Wuji was a hard-spoken and soft-hearted person.The hard part was enduring Shen Wuji's harsh words, Shen Wuji was really aggressive, even if he knew in his heart that this person had no malicious intentions, he would still be so angry that he lost his temper.

Song Ling only thought that Luo Jinyu was disliking himself for screaming too annoyingly in the previous dream, so he let out a low groan of grievance, and fell on Luo Jinyu's lap, with his little paws picking at his clothes, and arching his face He acted like a baby.

It seemed that the movements were skillful, but Song Ling was already too ashamed in his heart.

Although he has become a demon for love now, but after all, he has a dignified nature and has been the majestic leader of the spirit fox clan since he was born. How could he have done such a thing.

But... but...

Song Ling thought to himself, that bastard Yankang cheated Yu'er's favor like that back then, and I saw it.Since Yankang can do it, why can't I, Song Ling?

As the young patriarch of the Spirit Fox Clan, Song Ling has his own arrogance. The fact that his fiancée was robbed of his love by a son of a bitch was regarded as a lifelong shame by him.

Thinking of this, Song Ling rolled himself into a snow-white ball and kept moaning beside Luo Jinyu's legs.

Luo Jinyu: "..."

This squeamish appearance was no different from Shen Wuji's.

He lowered his eyes to look at the Shen Baihu for a while, and said: "When you are angry, you are really annoying. After you are finished, you do this again. It is really cunning and hateful. It really is a fox."

Hearing this, Song Ling happened to be poked in the center of the socket, and couldn't help but froze, and his eyes were so guilty that they couldn't stop rolling.

Isn't that what Yu'er said, let alone the previous life, last time in a dream, I failed to control the inner demon and bit him.I am half human, half fox, and it is not an exaggeration to say that I am wild and difficult to tame.But I was not like this in the past. At that time, everyone called me a curling pot and a jade ruler, and I was as dusty as dust. If Yankang hadn't taken away my love, how could I have gone crazy?

The more Song Ling thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, and he whispered.

"You are the one who is angry with me, yet you are still wronged." Luo Jinyu said in a low voice.

Although it was only in a dream, there was nothing to do left and right, except to indulge in self-pity, so he could only talk to this white fox to relieve the depression in his heart.Luo Jinyu is not a negative person by nature, it is only when it is difficult to untie his heart knot for a while that he becomes depressed, so he would rather talk to this white fox so that he would not think about sleepy things.

Seeing him taking care of her, Song Ling felt better again, looking up at him with her pretty fox face upturned.Afraid that he would be unhappy, Song Ling hurriedly went to the side and rolled around, signaling that he was not wronged.

Luo Jinyu couldn't help laughing, and suddenly remembered a puppy he had raised when he was young.

It was a puppy that my mother picked up when she went out to wash clothes. It was very small and walked crookedly. It was abandoned by the river for some reason. When my mother went there, she saw it there, and when she came home, she saw it was still there. He howled with hunger, but no female dog appeared, so he took pity on him and took it home.

This puppy also understands human nature. He was obedient and clever all the way, and he didn't bark at all. He followed Luomu back home. At first, he didn't dare to move around. Drink water and drink, let eat eat.After a long time, it walked around the corner and smelled it, but it didn't bite anything. Seeing the little master Luo Jinyu who came back from the school, he smelled the same breath as Luo Mu from a distance, so it seemed very familiar. He went up to meet him and circled around the little master's feet, his short tail wagging non-stop.

After all, Luo Jinyu was young at that time, seeing such a clingy and well-behaved puppy, how could he not like it?He always hugged the puppy and played with his mother for a while after finishing his homework.Sometimes, when he had a lot of homework and his mother was busy preparing buns, the puppy would just curl up on the hay obediently and watch the two masters on both sides of the house doing their own things.

Thinking of these past events, Luo Jinyu couldn't help but feel shivering again.

He grew up in a poor family, and the house he rented with his mother was small. He did his homework and his mother made steamed buns under the same roof. His mother was always worried that he would disturb his studies, and once went to make steamed stuffed buns outside the house, but in summer it was very busy outside. There are many mosquitoes, and it is usually cold outside in winter, and there is no light outside, even the moonlight is blocked by the nearby houses. How can my mother be willing to light an extra oil lamp? It is nothing more than doing things in the dark.Luo Jinyu also felt sorry for his mother, and refused to do so. The mother and son had confronted each other many times, and his mother could not hold him back in the end.

In fact, Luo's mother was too worried. Luo Jinyu was eager to learn when she was a child. Once she got the book, she would be like an old monk sitting still, and she would not be distracted easily. She would not be disturbed by the sound of her mother making buns there.

And this kind of experience also made Luo Jinyu have a calm and stable attitude in her future schooling career. One time, when the imperial college exam was about to be closed, there was a sudden noise from outside, as if a nobleman came to inspect the imperial students. , the students couldn't help being agitated, and they had already finished answering the papers, so they handed in the papers one after another and went out to watch the excitement.

Luo Jinyu has always been at the top of the exams in Taiyuan College. He finished answering the exam papers earlier than others, but he is used to checking the papers carefully until the papers are closed, and he is never hasty.Now there is excitement outside, but it didn't affect him at all, even if the Holy One came in person, he would not be interested.

The invigilator teacher of the Taiyuan Academy was an old scholar of the Hanlin Academy. He was always kind and easy-going. He was sitting in the classroom and saw the students handing in the papers early to watch the excitement, but he was not angry. Looking up again, I saw that there were still a dozen or so students left in the hall, but even those who hadn't handed in their papers were still restless and could not help but look up frequently out of the window.There were also those who disliked the noise of the students outside, frowned and got up to close the window, and then went back to their seats and continued to check papers.

Only Luo Jinyu, who sat upright like a pine, never took his eyes off the scroll for a moment, had a serious expression between his brows, but did not show the slightest arrogance, as if he was in a quiet room and had never been disturbed by anything.

After a long time, when the time came, the old scholar picked up the small golden hammer and lightly tapped the small clock on the table, making a clear and pleasant sound, Luo Jinyu seemed to withdraw his thoughts and returned to the secular world.He stood up slowly, holding his test paper in both hands, and walked all the way to the hall, gently drying the ink stains all the way.

Coming to the front of the hall, Luo Jinyu respectfully presented the test paper with both hands: "Sir, students hand in the paper."

When the old scholar collected his papers, Luo Jinyu clasped his hands again, saluted him respectfully, turned around and went back to the desk, tidied up the pens, inks, papers and inkstones on the table, and then left the examination room, Looking at the students in the distance with their heads in the corridor, they asked, "What are you looking at?"

The classmate answered him: "Master Yu Ge and Prince Jia are here."

Luo Jinyu gave a "hmm", and heard the students say indignantly, "I heard that if you want to choose a few students to accompany you, you must choose the top ones, but...hehe."

Several other Tai students at the side also felt aggrieved when they heard the words: "It's okay if you don't say it, but when you say it, I think it's funny! I said why the order of the exam was suddenly changed. This is the reason. Who doesn't know our class? He is the one with the best grades, and Zishi is in charge. Naturally, Zishi and other people in our class should be chosen to show their faces in front of Mr. Ge and the prince to win favor. Now it is good, the order of the exams has been changed, and it is logical to become "don't bother." "Student exams', so I chose those individuals to accompany me, all of them are stepping stones. If others don't mention it, just Jun Ruoqing, it's a shame that he returned to the top [-] in the exam!"

"Who made my father the dean, you have the ability, you let your father also be the dean."

"I just can't get used to it. On weekdays, Jun Ruoqing chases after Zishi, yelling that he is willing to be a running dog in front of Zishi's gate, but he smells meat, so he can run faster than anyone else. These officials This is what my disciples have been hearing and seeing since they were young, and their words are honey and swords, and their hearts are not the same."

Luo Jinyu was also young and frivolous at that time. Hearing this, he snorted and laughed. Although he didn't sneer with them, his eyes were obviously full of disdain.

He disdains Dean Jun's whimsical thoughts that can't be put on the table, disdains the great opportunity that the students around him actually envy to show their face in front of the elders and princes, and also disdains to talk behind his back here.

"What are you talking about? In the future, the ranking of Enke's answer sheet will not count as favor points." Luo Jinyu said, "Why don't you tell me, how did you solve the questions in this exam?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, the students immediately forgot about other things and started talking about the exam questions.

……

In Yu Ge's old mansion, it was lively tonight. The old man's son smiled at the white-haired old man sitting beside his father: "Uncle Qi, my father is very happy that you are here. My spirit is much better today. Right now, I'm sleepy."

The white-haired old man hurriedly said: "I'm still panicking, it's so late, I'm afraid I'll disturb the elder Ge's rest."

Old Yu Ge heard the words and said, "You are tired, do you want to rest?"

Old Ge's son hurriedly whispered in his ear: "Uncle Qi is afraid that you will be tired!"

"Why am I tired? I haven't seen you in a few years. I'm in good spirits. I hear you say I'm tired all day long. I wish I was tired, and I was awake, delaying your work?" Yu Ge glanced at his son displeased. .

The elder Ge's son didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said to the white-haired old man, "Uncle Qi, look, father talks more than usual." Speak. If you have anything, you can just call the maid who guards the door."

The white-haired old man nodded, watched Elder Ge's children and grandchildren go out, looked back at Elder Yu Ge, and said loudly: "If Elder Ge is tired, just say, I won't bother you to rest, let's talk tomorrow!"

Old Yu Ge lowered his voice, glanced at his old friend and said, "Think I'm deaf? It's so loud."

The white-haired old man laughed and lowered his voice: "That's right."

"Those who don't want to hear will naturally be deaf." Old Yu Ge said slowly, holding up the teacup.

Hearing this, Elder Qi said, "In that case, Elder Ge will still have to be deaf for a while."

Yu Ge looked at him: "Tell me first."

Elder Qi was silent for a while, before he opened his mouth and said, "Elder Ge, do you remember Luo Jinyu?"

Old Yu Ge said indifferently: "Why don't you remember? You Qi Qian has been a good old man who never fights or grabs and is not warm all your life. When you get old, you talk about youthful madness. For this student, you resigned in anger and went back to your hometown to open a private school. .”

Qi Lao smiled and took a sip of tea.

Old Yu Ge asked: "What's the matter, you can get the news of his release from prison so quickly in our remote place?"

"You also said that it's a poor country, how can it be." Qi Lao said, "Jin Yiwei has to give me the face of this old man. I saw Jin Yiwei early in the morning, and thought that Yu Ge's downfall was liquidated, and my old fellow in the same list The fellow countrymen are also included, and I am still thinking about how to get rid of the relationship."

Both old people laughed, and Yu Ge said with a smile, "Well, Qi Qian, you have a good idea."

"I haven't had any good things about you, Mr. Yu Ge. How can I bear the bad things with you? Dozens of students in my private school are still waiting for me, and I don't have time to interfere with your official affairs." Qi Lao said.

Old Yu Ge laughed more and more heartily, shook his head and said: "Qi Qian, Qi Qian, what can I say about you, you are really 'unsafe at night', a good person all your life, and you don't want to offend anyone if you don't say a word Why, just because of Luo Jinyu, I turned my seventy years old and made myself cynical like a young boy."

Elder Qi also shook his head with a smile. After a long time, his smile gradually dissipated. He looked seriously into Elder Yu Ge's eyes and said in a low voice, "Probably because, on him, he saw you in his teens. Me. At that time, before we left our hometown, I was not a good old man who would not offend anyone, and you were not old Yuge who would not offend anyone. We were just two ignorant urchins in the mountains and fields. Strict frost and sharp sword, only know that there is righteousness between heaven and earth, a gentleman has clarity in his heart, reading is only for the purpose of clarifying right and wrong, seeking the truth, and being an official should be free from ghosts and demons."

Old Yu Ge smiled and said, "You, the more you live, the more you go back."

Old Qi said: "It's not bad at all."

Yu Ge said in an old way: "But who is right and who is wrong is a difficult question. Qi Qian, at that time Cao Guozhong had not been eliminated, and Jun Qi and I had to join forces. For the sake of a mere imperial student, I offended Jun Qi and missed Sheji. It's a big thing, it's a small thing. You naturally know my difficulties, so you didn't break up with me because of this matter, but just resigned and left. But you have also seen that it is useless to be a scholar, and your Resignation, as far as the court is concerned, and as far as Junqi is concerned, has there ever been a slight disturbance? In the end, it was Shen Wuji who took power and made Luo Jinyu come out."

Elder Qi didn't speak.

Elder Yu Ge sighed, and said: "You come to me today, I roughly know what you want to say. But Qi Xugu, what I want to say today may disappoint you again."

Old Qi frowned and looked at him: "Now that Cao Guozhong has been eliminated——"

"Cao Guozhong has been removed, but the country is still there." Yu Ge said oldly, "Jun Qi is still there, the Supervisor of Rituals is still there, and the cabinet is still there. The cabinet does not include me and Jun Qi, there are five people, two of whom are with Jun Qi Qi has a very close personal relationship, the two are peacemakers in troubled waters, and the remaining one is still my comrade. The new king ascended the throne, the foundation is not stable, Shen Wuji is not a fuel-efficient lamp, the inside and outside are messy, you let me be buried in the ground What about the people who have reached the neck? I sit in the middle of the old ears, and I can still reserve one more seat for the cabinet. Jun Qi and Shen Wuji still give me a little bit of favor. If I lean over, I can follow the board I can't see you slipping all the way."

Old Qi hesitated and said: "You mean to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and let Shen Wuji and Jun Qi fight?"

"That's all I can do," Yu Ge said.

Elder Qi was silent for a while, naturally he knew the difficulties of his old friend, but he couldn't help feeling depressed: "But this Luo Jinyu..."

"You have shown me his essays and articles, and you have said many things about him. I know that the person who catches your eye is naturally impeccable in character and talent." Yu Ge advised him, "It can be compared with the overall situation. , even I am just a piece on the chessboard. What's more, this Luo Jinyu is young and famous. Although he usually respects his teachers, his articles and actions still feel a little too arrogant. Such a person, although He is a talented person, but he will not go smoothly in the court. Just because of this incident, he can calm down and smooth the edges and corners. He is only twenty years old, and he will have a long time to come. Thinking about it, this is not a bad thing."

Elder Qi remained silent for a moment, but suddenly smiled: "Maybe I have been away from the capital for three years, and I have forgotten the customs here. In the past, I would agree with your statement, but now, I am thinking, I have been with you for so many years. Come on, are you all wrong? There is one thing I have never told you. Back then, when the corruption and fraud scandals of the Tai Academy were leaked, everyone was afraid of Jun Qi’s relationship. Shang Da Tian Ting was also stopped by the teachers in the courtyard, or they understood it with reason, moved them with emotion, or used threats to force them, or used them to lure them with profit, in short, they suppressed them, but Luo Jinyu was the only one who I can’t persuade him no matter what. I approached him in private, and what I said was similar to yours. I persuaded him to have a brighter future. It’s hard for him to shake anything with his words as a scholar, so don’t ruin the future for a moment of enthusiasm. It’s better to let this Bury the matter in my heart, use it to work hard, and when I enter the court and take power in the future, I will make a blockbuster."

Old Yu Ge asked, "What did he return to you?"

Old Qi thought for a while, and said: "If he returns, it's better to be a tortoise than to bury your head in mediocrity."

Mr. Yu Ge suddenly laughed out loud: "This is scolding us hard-headed turtles. It's not like what he, a scholar who follows the rules, can say. All I can think of at the moment is that the supervisor of rites loves to scold the street Mr. Shen."

Elder Qi was also dumbfounded, shaking his head and said: "I was stunned at the time, I didn't expect him to say such a sentence." After a while, Elder Qi's eyes were moist, and he said, "But I looked at Luo Jinyu with frowning eyes. When I said this like a child can say, I actually felt that Luo Jinyu is the most true scholar I have ever seen in my life. The books you and I have read in this life are all for nothing. "

Old Yu Ge smiled again and declined to comment.
