Lang Jun is coming

Chun Wei took the exam for three days, and the exam institute had just accepted the theory, and the vermilion carved wooden door in the palace finally opened the copper lock.

These days are sunny and good weather, the temperature is neither too hot nor too cold, and even the wind is comfortable.There is a locust tree planted beside the front door of the corridor, with lush branches and leaves, and the shade is like a cover.It was almost May at this time, and the trees were covered with clusters of grape-like white flowers, attracting bees and butterflies to linger.

Mei Yanyu stretched his waist and stretched his muscles and bones, and walked down the steps slowly with his hands behind his back. He looked up in a good mood to see the dappled sunlight falling through the branches and leaves.

"Hey, Bachelor Mei, take it easy."

The little yellow gate guarding outside saw that Mei Yanyu was old, and was afraid that he would accidentally step on the air and fall, so he hurried forward to help him.

Liu Hanqiu's reaction was quicker, before the little Huangmen came over, he had already held Mei Yanyu's arm.The latter could only cover up his embarrassment with a smile, and stood by the side waiting for orders.

"Mr. Mei, watch your step."

One and two of them looked like porcelain on the shelf, but Mei Yanyu waved his hands, not acknowledging anyone's affection, "It's just that they are getting old, and it's not that they can't walk."

"Yes, yes, Scholar Mei will grow old and strong, and he will surely live a long life."

Just now he failed to be courteous, Xiao Huangmen seized the opportunity to ask for auspiciousness.It's a pity that the other party didn't move their eyes, and only talked with Liu Xiang who was beside him.

"I've been struggling with the exam questions these days, and Liu Xiangqing has lost a lot of weight. It's really hard work."

Liu Hanqiu's expression of respect remained unchanged, and he said politely: "You don't contribute much, and you are ashamed of yourself."

Seeing how he had to carry it no matter what, Mei Yanyu, who didn't have any deep meaning at first, felt bored while chatting casually, and couldn't help but miss his student Pei Lian.

Having been an official for decades, Mei Yanyu has a great reputation, but there are not many students, and it can even be said that there are very few.Pei Lian was his favorite among his students.Not in poetry and songs, only one "interesting" can come out on top.

Thinking of this, Mei Yanyu couldn't help recalling the scene of accepting Pei Lian as a student.After careful calculation, it has been 15 years.

At that time, Pei Lian was just a child with a yellow mouth, and his father Pei Yanfu was not as prestigious as the deputy prime minister now.When the Pei family entertained their colleagues, Pei Lian was not much taller than the desk case, so he knew that he was running around stretching his neck to look at them officials without any timidity.

"You have a beard, can you make a brush?"

In the children's world, there are no such concepts as Bachelor Mei, Seven Character Weng, etc. Pei Lian crawled on the table to pull the long beard on Mei Yanyu's chin.

Pei Yanfu was already annoyed at his stubbornness, but now he was so panicked that he was about to pass out, he hurriedly said: "Yulang, don't mess around!"

"Eh, it's okay."

The students were always respectful and respectful, and it was the first time that Mei Yanyu saw such a quarrelsome and unrestrained one, Mei Yanyu wanted to tease him.

Ordinary people say that there is no limit to children's words, and it is good to pass on what children say as a joke, and rarely take it seriously.Mei Yanyu responded with a smile and followed Pei Lian's thoughts.

"Is it possible, Mr. Pei Xiaolang will know if he tries it."

Pei Lian's eyes were shining brightly, "Really?"

As he spoke, he looked around for scissors, planning to give this great literary figure a violent shave.

Those who looked around gasped one after another.

"Not in a hurry." Mei Yanyu changed the topic, and gently guided the other party to look at him with swaying eyes.

Everyone saw him holding a wine glass and a lotus white porcelain bowl in Pei Lian's left and right hands respectively, and pointed to the celadon fish tank on the wooden table next to him.

"Here are two items. If Mr. Pei Xiaolang can scoop up the water in the fish tank within a quarter of an hour, I will use my beard to make a brush for you, and I will give you something as a gift. How about it?"

The fish tank is placed on the right side of the main hall, and almost every official has one for viewing, but it is an ordinary decoration, nothing rare.The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became somewhat serious, and everyone had their own guesses in their hearts.

Pei Yanfu felt that he had never been so nervous about the imperial examinations. Seeing his son staring at the wine glasses and bowls in his left and right hands and thinking back and forth, his heart almost popped out of his throat.

Bachelor Mei hasn't accepted a new student for a long time.

With Pei Lian's height, he couldn't even reach the base of the fish tank on the wooden table.Everyone just watched him move a stool very neatly and step on it skillfully, the height was just enough to slightly overlook the fish tank.

Use a bowl, but you must use a bowl...

Whether he can scoop up the water in the fish tank within a quarter of an hour, Pei Yanfu couldn't think of thinking about it anymore, he only prayed that his son would use his usual cleverness on the bowl in his right hand.

Pei Yanfu promised that if Pei Lian made the right choice, he would not be beaten for three days.

Amidst many pairs of eyes watching, Pei Lian moved.

He raised his left hand first, and seemed to want to use the wine glass to scoop up the water, but before everyone could sigh, they heard a muffled "plop".

Pei Lian threw the wine glass into the fish tank neatly, followed by the bowl in his right hand.

The wine glasses and bowls filled with water slowly sank, disturbing the palm-sized koi raised inside.

While everyone was still puzzled, Pei Lian used all his strength to push the whole fish tank off the wooden table to the ground.

"Crash-"

There was a burst of shattering porcelain and the crisp sound of water, and the tidy main hall was in a mess just now.The koi lay in the cyan fragments and desperately opened its mouth to breathe, looking very innocent and pitiful.

Pei Lian clapped her hands and pouted at Mei Yanyu to ask for a promise, "It's been scooped up. You can't break your promise."

Mei Yanyu smiled openly, and responded again and again: "Don't break your promise, don't break your promise..."

For a long time, colleagues and officials have seen Bachelor Mei without a beard every day.

From that day on, Pei Lian became famous as a new student of Bachelor Mei.

Of course, little is known about Pei Lian being chased by her father with a broom that night, jumping up and down all over the yard and fleeing because of a piece of porcelain from the former dynasty.
