Chapter 29 The Stranger Who Blocked the Way

"What do you mean he disappeared?" Xue Jing asked.

Ye Ke looked heavy, drank three glasses of wine in a row, and said slowly...

Under the tree, there was a jug of light wine and a plate of melon and fruit snacks. Ye Ke sat in the small courtyard and poured himself a drink. Everyone in the same class said that he was a reckless man in the mountains. He wanted to learn from the so-called elegance of this literati. What is the difference!

"Brother Gong Zai!"

Xu Lang hurried in from outside, dripping with sweat.

"Brother Ziming, what's wrong with you?" Ye Ke handed him a glass of wine.

Xu Lang didn't take the wine glass, he calmed down, picked up the jug, and drank heavily into the jug, gulping down the wine.

"Brother Ziming! There is some good news!"

Xu Lang shook off the jug, looked up to the sky and smiled, Ye Ke was completely puzzled by his actions.

Xu Lang said: "Brother Gong Zai, if you and I take the exam again, what should we do?"

Ye Ke laughed and said, "Stop joking, I'm packing up and going back to Mount Mang!"

Xu Lang excitedly held Ye Ke's shoulders, with inexplicable joy in his eyes: "Brother Gong Zai, people like Yan Xide and Li Hui can go to high school, we don't say that we have the ability to evade, but the hardships of life are difficult." I have been studying for years, and I can be regarded as full of nylon, but I am depressed. Our ambition has not been realized, how can you be reconciled? The scientific examination is unfair, and there is fraud for personal gain. Qu, the conclusive evidence of accepting bribes, as long as it is reported to the imperial court and before the holy majesty, we have the hope of overturning this scientific investigation!"

For the first time, Ye Ke fell into deep thought in front of Xu Lang. On the day the list was released, he never doubted that several candidates with mediocre or low-level talents went to high school one after another. On the contrary, many well-known and truly talented candidates failed the list. , Saying that there is nothing tricky in it, is simply lying to yourself.

After a while, he sighed and lowered his voice: "Brother Ziming, I didn't throw cold water on you. Although you and I haven't known each other for a long time, we share similar interests. I already regard you as a close friend. You and I both know Your Majesty." Extravagance and corruption, allowing the right-hand Shao Weng to control the government, and the bureaucrats form cliques for personal gain, if you want to sue Guo Wenhui, it will be difficult for you!"

"No!" Xu Lang said excitedly, "There is someone, there is someone who can help us!"

"You mean..."

Xu Lang nodded, "That's right, it's Zhang Jian, the current Prime Minister of the Left. Although Zhang Jian came from a poor family, he is high-spirited and upright. I've heard it before. He can help us expose fraudulent imperial examinations, I already have evidence, he will definitely help me!"

It's easy to say, but no one can predict what will happen when you actually do it.

After that day, he heard that there was a person blocking Zuoxiang's sedan chair on the street in the capital city that day and calling for grievances. He guessed that person might be Xu Lang, but Xu Lang never appeared again...

There was silence in the boat.

Xue Jing's eyes moved back and forth between Ye Ke and Zhang Jian.

After a long time, Xue Jing said, "Brother Ye, cheating for personal gain in the imperial examination is no small matter!"

Ye Ke indifferently drank the wine in the glass. He didn't know how much wine he drank, and he spoke intermittently, but he could understand: "Haha, I was emotional for a while, so I said a few more words, I laughed!  … .If some of you spread my words, then spread it! I am already full of exhaustion, and it would be a good thing to be relieved!"

"Oh? Listening to what Brother Ye said, there seems to be a sad past!" Xue Jing asked.

Ye Ke laughed at himself and said: "There is no sad past, but my parents died when I was young, and I grew up eating a lot of food, so I have no worries in this world!" After all, I don't know how much I have drunk Ye Ke drank another cup.

"Xu Lang said he had evidence of cheating in the imperial examination, have you seen that evidence?" Zhang Jian spoke.

"No, I didn't ask in detail that day... so what if I asked? It's ridiculous to shake a big tree. What about the left minister Zhang Jian? Brother Ziming said he was clear, which is ridiculous. I It seems that he is just a person who deceives the world and steals his name, and is on the same level as Guo Wenhui and Chen Xun..."

Xue Jing coughed twice, and pressed the raised corners of his mouth.

Xiao Lianzi was about to remind Ye Ke that the person sitting next to you was the left prime minister of the court, but when he saw Zhang Jian beside him, whose face was like dark clouds covering the sun, gloomy like thunder and lightning, he was so frightened that he immediately shut his mouth .

Eh?Don't move, Young Master Qiao has become two!Ye Ke looked at Zhang Jian carefully.

Zhang Jian didn't want to argue with such outspoken drunkards. He was thinking about what Ye Ke said just now. Ye Ke turned his head and brought the two of them face to face. Then... he His face was pinched by Ye Ke!

Xiao Lianzi's jaw dropped in shock!

Prime Minister Zuo dared to pinch his face, he is a man!

"Don't move, two...no, four...hahahahahahaha~~~"

Xue Jing couldn't bear it any longer, and burst out laughing.

Zhang Jian smelled of alcohol all over her body, her face was flushed, and she yelled, "It's unreasonable!"

As soon as the two words were put down, Ye Ke fainted from drunkenness and fell on the table.

Many years later, when talking about their first meeting on a painting boat, Zhang Jian asked Ye Ke why he would tell three strangers something that might kill him. Is it really just because he has no father or mother, no Are you concerned?

Ye Ke answered honestly: Actually, the main reason is that the emperor is so good-looking. I have grown up so much, and I have never seen such a good-looking person. If you say you are good-looking, then you must have a good impression in your heart!At that time, I felt that the young man in front of me must not be a bad person!

Zhang Jian smiled: Your Majesty looks good, doesn't he?You have a crush on him, don't you?

After that, Ye Ke slept in the study for more than a month, and the entire court knew that there was an awkward relationship between the two of them.

This is a later story, let's not mention it for the time being.

"Yuan Yi, what do you think?" Xue Jing asked with a smile back.

"If so, what this person said is true, the most urgent thing is to find this person from Xu Lang!" Zhang Jian said, and glanced at Xiao Lianzi while talking. Does the emperor really not shy away from this eunuch for such an important national event?

"I remember, that day you said that a man who looked like a scholar stopped your sedan chair in the street and reported to you fraud in the imperial examination?"

Zhang Jian said with shame: "That person is Xu Lang, this matter is not under the responsibility of the minister, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the minister can't just accept his complaint directly!"

"Is it not your business, or do you not want to control it?"

I don't know if it was Zhang Jian's illusion, but he felt that the emperor's tone suddenly changed, he became calmer and less foolish.

"Does the emperor want to take care of it?" Do you want to fight against Guan Shaoweng and Qin Taiwei?Want to be a good emperor?Zhang Jian sincerely hoped that he did not misinterpret the meaning of the emperor.

Xue Jing didn't reply to his words, and remained silent for a long time, until Xiao Lianzi couldn't help yawning out of boredom, before Xue Jing said, "Chen Yi, go back to the palace immediately, and secretly look for this man named Xu Lang. He wants to meet someone. To die is to see the corpse... Zhang Jian, take Ye Ke back first, and I will ask him in detail when he wakes up!"

Back at Ganguang Temple, Ye Ke was placed in the room originally assigned to Xiao Lianzi, and slept all day, only waking up the next afternoon.

Seeing that he was in the meditation room, Ye Ke was taken aback for a moment, then said with a smile: "Thank you, brothers, for not throwing me at the foot of the mountain!"

Xiao Lianzi saw that they were going to talk about something serious, so he said, "My servant, go and fetch medicine for Mr. Ye!"

slave?

Ye Ke's eyes moved, he was sober now, and his head was much clearer, he carefully sized up Xue Jing and Zhang Jian in the room.

Xue Jing was unwilling to beat around the bush, "Let's open up the skylight and speak honestly. Although I don't know how you will do in the test, if I give you another chance to be good at the test, would you be willing?"

Ye Ke said with half doubts: "What do you say all of a sudden, what kind of person am I, and what's the use of whether I'm willing or not?"

"If I say it's useful, it's useful! But cheating in the imperial examination is not a trivial matter. If you believe what your friend Xu Lang said is true, you have to find evidence and prove it yourself! But if you are a little careless, you will be destroyed. But think about it!"

When Ye Ke met Xue Jing's eyes, he didn't dodge the slightest bit. It seems that the two people he met by chance were not ordinary people!

The kitchen is some distance away from the wing room, and it has to go through the back of the Dharma hall and then a small path.

Xiao Lianzi was carrying hangover soup and walking on the path planted with Podocarpus pines.

Walking through the path surrounded by green shade, to the side of the release pool, a person appeared in front of him blocking Xiao Lianzi's path.

He is a well-dressed man, his robe is a green cardigan, the suet jade hairpin exudes nobility, the clothes and hakama are embroidered with gold thread from top to bottom, and on his feet are a pair of red forged Cloud silk boots.

"Excuse me." Xiao Lianzi said in a low voice, turning his body sideways and passing by. Unexpectedly, he just moved a step to the left, and the man followed up to block his way.

Frowning, Xiao Lianzi finally looked at the man's face.

This look made him panic for no reason.
