The hero is broken again
Chapter 56 Tan Hualang's Autumn Dew White
Su Ying'er came to Yanjing City alone, Yu Wei was a little surprised, they all experienced some risks along the way, not to mention she came to Beijing as a woman.
Su Ying'er couldn't help laughing when she heard his question, "There is also a caravan from the Yu family with me, and my aunt ordered the caravan to bring some things over."
Hearing his mother's name, Yu Wei rubbed his nose and probed a little: "After I came out, did my mother say anything?"
Su Ying'er pursed her lips and smiled, and whispered about the situation after he left.
"Since learning that you slipped out of the house pretending to be sick that day, my aunt was so angry that she found out the whip that had not been used for a long time, and ordered the servants to soak the whip in pepper water for an hour every day."
Hearing that, Yu Wei's face froze, and there was a faint pain somewhere that always felt good.
Su Ying'er said: "Fortunately, not long after, the Yu Mansion received a letter from Qi Fei. Auntie then knew that you planned to go to Beijing with him."
letter?Yu Wei turned his head to Qi Fei who was quietly standing beside him, and he unexpectedly sent a letter back home at some point.He thought for a while, after leaving Pingxi City, apart from rolling into Qi Fei's arms every time he went to bed, so he didn't have a good rest, he probably didn't do any other things to bully him.
"What else was written in the letter? Say, have you complained to my mother?"
The boy looked up to the right, obviously asking Qi Fei.Seeing a sly look in the boy's eyes, Su Ying'er knew that he was joking, so Su Ying'er stopped explaining for Qi Fei.
The person being questioned didn't reply right away, but looked down at Yu Wei in silence, and after a while he said helplessly, "Nothing."
Yu Wei rolled his eyes, "Really?"
Qi Fei sighed and said: "Zhan Xinjia... Ayu is under my care, don't worry about uncles and aunts..."
Teenagers aged [-] or [-] are already in the period of voice change. At this stage, they either speak hoarsely and their voice is extremely ugly.However, Qi Fei's voice is different from others, it is clear and clear, like a stream of clear spring hitting rocks, ding dong ding dong, very pleasant to hear.
But why is this talking like reading a book?
Yu Wei was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he was reading the content of the letter again, and hurriedly called to stop.
Qi Fei pursed her thin lips slightly, and did not continue reading.
The three of them stood quietly in front of the steps, when suddenly someone rushed in.
"Master, Master—"
Yu Wei looked sideways, raised his eyebrows slightly, "Yuanbao?"
Hearing the young master calling his name, Yuan Bao's eyes lit up immediately, and he cried in his heart, fortunately the young master did not forget himself.
Seeing Yuan Bao eager to rush forward in surprise, Yu Wei hastily took a step towards Qi Fei, "Why are you here?"
"Master, Madam ordered me to come here with the caravan. Madam is worried that you won't be used to other people, and Madam even asked me to bring things here."
After Yuan Bao finished speaking, he hurriedly took out a roll of things from his lapel and handed it to the surprised Yu Wei.
Yu Wei took it and opened it without thinking too much. When his eyes fell on it, his face instantly turned red.
He suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly looked sideways, only to see Qi Fei staring at the object in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.
With a "chuckle", Yu quickly closed the object in his hand and moved away from someone at the same time.
Qi Fei glanced at Yu Wei in confusion, not understanding the reason for his sudden move.
Yu Wei gritted his teeth and pulled Yuan Bao, who was scratching his head in confusion, to the side to ask questions, and showed him something.
"Are you sure my mother asked you to bring me this thing?"
Yuan Bao looked down, his eyes widened, and he quickly explained.
"Young Master, I pretended to be wrong, Madam didn't give me this fire avoidance map..."
"This fire-avoidance map was probably given to me by my mother, because I, I got married not long ago..."
Hearing these three words, Yu Wei's face was full of black lines, so he lowered his voice and said, "Keep your voice down."
Yuan Bao nodded quickly, and also whispered back: "Actually, what Madam asked me to bring to the young master were some portraits of women who were to be married. Madam said it was a coming-of-age gift for you in advance..."
Halfway through his words, Yu Wei suddenly straightened up, "Woman to be married??"
In the front, Yu Wei and the two were still talking in a low voice under the tree, and they could vaguely hear A Yu's breath coming out of his extreme anger.
The two people in the conversation were completely unaware of their conversation, and Qi Fei had already heard them one by one.
Qi Fei didn't just have a photographic memory in reading, when the words "avoiding the fire map" entered his ears, the things that he had just stumbled upon automatically appeared in Qi Fei's mind.After figuring out why just now when A Yu withdrew his hands to prevent him from looking, Qi Fei tightened his hands slightly, showing a look of unnaturalness on his face.
After his mood calmed down a bit, he heard Yu Wei and the two's follow-up words, Qi Fei's hands tightened suddenly, and his fingers were almost embedded in his palms.
Su Ying'er asked worriedly, she didn't hear the conversation in front of her, but only saw Qi Fei's suddenly tense body.
Qi Fei closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "It's nothing."
As soon as the New Year's Day of the Great Yan Dynasty passed, the New Year ushered in, and the city of Yanjing was full of excitement.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the traditional Lantern Festival in the Yan Dynasty. When night fell, Yu Wei and his party dressed in new clothes and set off from the mansion to the bustling streets.
The acrobatics on the street, the lamps in the shops, Yu Wei couldn't miss the freshness of seeing them, the people coming and going on the street, a few people can be separated if they don't pay attention.
Seeing that Yu Wei was hit by another person on the shoulder, Qi Fei stretched out his hand to grab a corner of his sleeve, frowned and said, "There is a snack stall next to it, let's go there and rest for a while."
Yu Wei turned around with difficulty, and saw a small stall selling chaos next to him, and the smell wafted to his nostrils through the crowd.
His eyes lit up, he happened to be a little hungry after shopping for a long time, he hurriedly greeted Su Yinger and the guards of the Yu Mansion to go to the chaos stall, and then held Qi Fei's hand behind his back and led him to find a seat and sit down.
Until the stall owner put down a few bowls of Chaos, Qi Fei was still staring at his wrist that A Yu had held.
As the night darkened and the lantern festival became more and more lively, Yu Wei found that almost all the people who came to the lantern festival were accompanied by men and women.
Seeing this, Yu Wei turned his eyes back to the two people beside him, and found that Su Yinger was on his right and Qi Fei was on his left, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
He deliberately paused while walking, leaving a gap for the two of them to be side by side.
Qi Fei stopped, turned around and asked, "Ayu?"
Yu Wei glanced at the jade shop next to him, and suddenly said, "I'm tired."
Qi Fei raised a smile on his lips, "Then let's go into this shop and have a look?"
Yu Wei pretended to be dispensable, and stepped in first.
When the shop staff Yingying came, Yu Wei pretended not to say: "The last time Sister Ying'er gave birth to Ji, I vaguely remembered that you didn't give her Ji Ji gift."
Before the two of them could answer, Yu Wei took a step forward first, walked around the shop but found nothing interesting, curled his lips and was about to tell the two to leave.
When he turned around, he found that Qi Fei was standing in front of the cabinet full of jade and watching, asking the attendant in the shop in a low voice from time to time, and pointing in the direction of Su Yinger.
Yu Wei twisted the corner of his mouth, quietly led the guards out of the shop, and waited for the two outside the shop.
When it was almost a stick of incense, Su Ying'er slowly stepped out of the threshold, while Qi Fei walked behind silently, and Yu Wei's eyes fell directly on the former's bun.
The green hairpin there is no longer the one that Su Ying'er wears when she goes out.
Yu Wei pretended not to notice, and proposed to take a stroll by the Yan River, and the two naturally had no objection.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, it is a custom in the Yan Dynasty to place lanterns by the river to make wishes, so there will be many unmarried men and women gathered by the Yan River, most of whom come here to make a wish to meet a close person in the future.
Yu Wei took the lantern that Qi Fei had bought, and instead of writing wishes on it like the others, he just casually put it into the river and let it drift into the water.
Make a wish?He never believed it, especially after encountering the system.
After Qi Fei was also put away, Yu Wei said, "Let's go and join Sister Ying'er."
The places where men and women put lanterns are different, and Su Ying'er is probably still on the other side.When the two walked halfway, they found Su Yinger's figure in the crowd, but found a man standing beside her, and the two seemed to be having a very happy conversation.
Yu Wei looked at the man's imposing attire, and guessed that his family was either rich or noble, but he didn't know how he and Su Ying'er got involved.
On the way back home, Yu Wei found out that it was Su Ying'er who had finished setting off the lanterns, and when she returned, she met a thief. The green hairpin in her hair was picked off by someone, and it was the young master who helped her. Chased back.
Yu Wei nodded and didn't think about it.Unexpectedly, after a few days, an unexpected visitor came to the house.
When his elder brother called him to the reception hall, Yu Wei was still puzzled, but when his eyes fell on the faces of the guests who came there, he understood.As long as there is a man who has met the heroine in the book, there is no one who does not want to snatch her away.
The person who came was the young man who helped Su Ying'er a few days ago.
Yu Wei asked his elder brother with his eyes, only to see Yu Tang coughed twice, pointed at the man and said, "Ah Wei, this is the current crown prince, so he still hasn't come over to salute."
Yu Wei opened his eyes suddenly, one of the men who caused Su Yinger's tragic fate in the book?
"Young master's expression seems to be that he knows Gu?"
Not only do I know each other, I not only know that you will be deposed in the future, but you will also be permanently imprisoned in the Prince's Mansion by Qi Fei's order, and you will not be allowed to go out.
Yu Wei complained silently in his heart.
Yu Tang glanced at the silent Yu Wei, and hurriedly explained: "The prince is joking, my little brother has lived in the south of the Yangtze River all year round, and he just entered Beijing not long ago. He has been confined in the mansion, so how could he meet the prince?"
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and told Yu Wei who was standing stupidly to come over and salute. Yu Wei moved his feet and clasped his fists.
"Meet the prince."
Yang Qingjun smiled and raised his hand in exemption.
Yu Tang waved his hand and asked Yu Wei to find a place to sit down at random, then smiled and said to the prince: "Just now the prince's proposal is not because the lower officials refused to agree, the prince doesn't know about it, Su Yinger's marriage contract is not something I can decide."
Yu Wei turned to his eldest brother with a 'swish' face, "What do you mean by what elder brother said?"
The prince came to the mansion to leave Su Ying'er?
Yang Qingjun stopped holding the tea, raised his eyes to look at the two, and said unhurriedly: "You called Mr. Yu, do you mean that Su Yinger's marriage contract is decided by him?"
Yu Tang smiled wryly, "Don't dare to expire the crown prince, then Su Ying'er belongs to my younger brother, not from our Yu Mansion."
After speaking, he turned his head and explained to Yu Wei the reason for the prince's visit.
"The prince met Ying'er last time during the Lantern Festival, and he fell in love with Ying'er very much. He came to the mansion today because he wanted to marry Ying'er."
like?The corner of Yu Wei's mouth twitched, and what he said was nice, it's not that he didn't follow the routine of being married by a medium, and married someone who entered the mansion as a concubine.
If you want to change Su Yinger's tragic fate, you have to cut off any connection between her and the prince from today.
Covered by his sleeves, Yu Wei secretly pinched his thigh, his face turned pale suddenly.
When he raised his eyes, his face was full of embarrassment: "It's our Yu family's blessing that the crown prince can take a fancy to my Ying'er, but we are not blessed to enjoy it. Ying'er and I have been peeing since we were young... ..”
"That's all!" Yang Qingjun's face was ugly, and he refused to listen to him, always feeling that if he listened to it, his prince's face would be trampled on the ground.
What this person meant was to say that he, a prince, actually came to the mansion to rob another family's fiancée by force!
"Prince, calm down!" Yu Tang hurriedly pulled Yu Wei who was still about to speak and bowed to salute.
Yang Qingjun stood up from his seat, stared at Yu Wei's face for a while, a gleam of predation flashed across his eyes, and it disappeared when he raised his hand to let the two get up.
A smile appeared on his face again, "It's a lonely demon. I didn't expect that Miss Su might have a marriage contract. As the Crown Prince of Great Yan alone, how can she take advantage of others."
Yu Wei returned a smirk.
Yang Qingjun turned to look at Yu Tang, and said with a sudden smile: "Just now I saw that Young Master Yu looks very familiar, I must have met him somewhere, but now I remember where I met him."
Yu Wei looked up: "?"
Yang Qingjun continued: "The lonely sixth emperor sister went out to play a few days ago, but she met a bandit when she didn't want to. I heard that she was rescued by a young son."
Yu Tang's tone was slightly startled: "Princess Qinglian?"
Yang Qingjun nodded, thought for a while and said, "I remember that mountain was called You Bandit Mountain, and was later recruited by the local government."
Yu Wei was stunned, so he said, what does that have to do with him, since he had used some drugs at the beginning, and he had never saved any woman.
"After the sixth imperial sister returned to the palace, she drew a picture of the young son, and kept arranging for people to investigate his whereabouts, saying that she wanted to repay her kindness. I heard that because of this, she rejected her father's proposed marriage, and said bluntly that she would marry him after she found a lifesaver. "
This long paragraph of meaningful words made Yu Wei feel like Sparta.
Yu Tang asked his younger brother in a low voice, "Have you ever been to Bandit Mountain?"
How could Yu Wei dare to admit that even if he had no impression of saving any woman, he quickly shook his head.
Yu Tang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Although his Yu family only had him as an official in the court, the Yu family's great reputation is not for nothing, and their Yu family has always been taken away by several people in the palace. The prince wins over.
If the marriage with any prince is involved, in the eyes of outsiders, it is basically a sideline.
But their Yu family has always been a neutral faction regardless of the matter of seizing the heir.
Seeing the prince visiting in plain clothes today, Yu Tang kept holding his breath, fearing that the prince would win over the Yu family to stand in line, but in the end, he really didn't think wrong.
The prince came to the Yu family to win them over.
Yu Tang took a deep breath, bowed his hands to the prince and said: "Prince, my younger brother also said that he has never been to any bandit mountain, and his appearance is ordinary, similar to most people, probably similar to saving Qinglian. The princesses just look alike."
"..." Yu Wei touched his face, his eyes added a layer of meaning, and he had a deeper understanding of his elder brother's ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense.
Yang Qingjun was also taken aback, glanced at Yu Wei, then smiled and said bluntly: "Master Yu is just joking, there is no other purpose for Gu's remarks. Gu sees that Young Master Yu is handsome and quite heroic, but he is not old enough. Fifteen, presumably the parents in the house haven't married him yet?"
"After I return to the palace alone, I have to talk to the sixth imperial sister about meeting Young Master Yu who is very similar to her savior. She must be very interested in this matter."
Yu Wei is full of black lines and has no other purpose, so why ask if he is engaged!
-
Spring is just around the corner, and the capital is where all the students gather. The restaurants are almost full of students, and most of them are used to hold poetry gatherings and students discuss Taoism.
After Qi Fei came to Beijing, he didn't stay bored in the mansion all the time. After Yu Tang's introduction, he got to know many people with real talents and real learning.Occasionally, he was invited to participate in various seminars held by them, because most of the people he met came from the Capital Academy, and there were also teachers from the academy present during the seminars, so he could get a lot of goods in almost every session.
After the discussion of the students today, Qi Fei went to a place first, and then returned to the Yu Mansion.
After entering the courtyard and ordering someone to bring hot water, he pushed the door open and walked in. When he turned sideways to unbutton his clothes, his raised hands froze.
He looked up at the young man lying on his bed, and said in a daze, "Why did Ayu come here?"
With a sound of "Yeah", Yu turned over, looked at him standing by the door, and waved to say hello, "You're back." Then with a push of his legs, he jumped off the edge of the bed and went to the bookshelf go. "Go on, I don't want to look at you."
"It's true that I called you a nerd. If I want to find a good book from you, I can't find it." As he said, Yu Wei stuffed a book of historical records in his hand into the bookshelf, and tapped the books on the shelf. Books, I read that they are all books related to learning, but I didn't find a drama script.
Qi Fei approached slowly, hesitantly said: "If Ayu wants to see it, I can buy it and put it up tomorrow."
Yu Wei pouted, "Forget it, I'm just bored today and want to read it, and I won't be interested in it tomorrow." Thinking of what the prince said in the morning, he couldn't help poking the book in front of him bitterly.
"Then I'll go out first..." After the words fell, Yu Wei, who was about to turn around and leave, suddenly caught a glimpse of a book without a name written in it, "What book is this?"
Qi Fei followed his line of sight, his cheeks turned red, and when he saw Yu Wei, he was about to reach out and take it out to watch.
He was anxious, his body was one step ahead of his thoughts, he leaned forward suddenly and stretched out one hand to press Yu Wei's wrist, and the other hand reached behind Yu Wei's waist to prevent him from hitting the bookshelf and suffering pain.
Wall, wall dong!When Yu Wei was suddenly trapped in Qi Fei's arms, this word immediately appeared in his mind when he was stunned.
Qi Fei put the 'unnamed book' on a high place, and felt that Ayu couldn't reach it, so he lowered his head and explained: "This book is not good, wait for me tomorrow..."
The next second, he felt a kick on his calf, and wanted to explain again, when the other calf was suddenly kicked again.
The strength was not great, but it seemed to be able to kick Qi Fei's heart. He looked down at the angry eyes of the man in his arms, and was speechless for a moment. He didn't know how to explain it so that A Yu would not misunderstand him. It wasn't that he didn't want to read the book.
Yu Wei stretched out his foot and kicked the person twice, but Qi Fei still let go of his arms around his waist, took a deep breath and said, "Bookworm, you can't do it!"
Qi Fei looked slightly startled, "Isn't Ah Yu angry..."
"What are you angry about?"
Yu Wei raised his head, poked his chest with his finger, and raised his voice slightly: "If you still don't get out of the way, I'm going to be out of breath!"
Qi Fei immediately turned sideways obediently.
After all the strength on the waist and wrists was withdrawn, Yu Wei, who accidentally touched the bookshelf behind, moved his body uncomfortably, his face was full of dissatisfaction.
"What kind of book is that, why can't I, young master, read it?"
Qi Fei rubbed his fingers, but couldn't feel the smoothness just now, so he replied in a low voice: "I have already read the travel notes of an unknown person, and there is nothing interesting in them."
Afraid that he was bringing the topic to that 'book', Qi Fei abruptly changed the topic.
"Why is Ah Yu feeling bored today?"
"It's not that—" Yu Wei's voice paused, and instead of explaining first, he raised his face and asked, "Qi Fei, what do you think of my appearance?"
Qi Fei paused, raised his eyes to stare at the young man's jade-like face and the pair of amber eyes that attracted his whole heart, before he said with difficulty: "Excellent."
Yu Wei's eyebrows furrowed, and he said firmly, "No, you want to say that my appearance is ordinary!"
Qi Fei was speechless for a moment.
The ordinary appearance is definitely not the savior of Princess Qinglian, Yu Wei lowered his eyes and recited these words silently, deceiving himself like this.
"Did Ayu encounter something today?"
Yu Wei thought about it, and said tentatively: "Someone came to ask Sister Ying'er to marry her today..." At this point, he deliberately paused for a second, seeing that there was no reaction on his face, he couldn't help venting his emotions. Tone, muttered a nerd.
Then he talked about what happened in the morning like a joke: "The man failed to ask for a marriage. Instead, he said that he still has a younger sister at home. Seeing me as a young talent, he wanted to betroth his younger sister to me."
"Snapped--"
Yu Wei was startled, and when he looked up, he suddenly saw the cold aura surging around Qi Fei, and the unlucky bookshelf that was tilted on the wall.
Er, is Qi Fei's reflex arc so long? ?It's only now that I'm angry that sister Ying'er was proposed to marry me.
Afraid that he would do something out of anger, Yu Wei hurriedly explained, "Brother already rejected that person."
"... Yours declined too?"
"?" Although he didn't understand why he still cared about his marriage, Yu Wei nodded and said, not forgetting to add fire to him.
"Brother refused together. After all, Sister Ying'er and I are going to get married together. How can we marry or marry another person?"
Qi Fei clenched his hands into fists, feeling that the fire in his heart had just subsided and started to rise again, and the person who lit the fire didn't know it yet, and his face was full of smiles.
......
On a spring day in Yanjing City, there was more rain than snow, and it rained for several days without clearing up.Many students who are about to take part in the Spring Festival have complained about the weather. They are afraid that it will be raining heavily during the few days of the exam. If that is the case, how can these frail scholars be able to withstand the cold.
God pity, at the beginning of February, the pouring rain was finally replaced by a drizzle.On this day at Yinshi (after three o'clock in the morning), the gate of the Gongyuan in the capital city opened as scheduled, and the students who had been waiting for a long time with umbrellas did not rush forward, but obediently lined up to enter under the order of the guards.
They are all imperial examination candidates who have come to Chunwei, and the probability of encountering the top grade is greatly reduced like last time.
Yu Wei retracted his gaze from the examinee, covered his mouth and thought of it haha.
Yu Tang, who was helping to open the umbrella, saw it and said with a smile: "But I'm sleepy, why don't you go home first, I'll watch here."
"Not sleepy," Yu Wei straightened his body immediately, "I'll go back to the house after they all go in."
Yu Tang shook his head dumbfounded, and looked at Qi Fei who was seriously queuing up.
Same as the last provincial examination, the candidates who lined up to enter the Gongyuan need to take off their clothes for inspection, but there is an extra item of bathing naked. This time, Chunwei is much stricter than the previous imperial examinations. From Yu Wei, I didn’t see any of them being searched out. Candidates who read the cheat sheet will be able to see it.
Candidates who dare to cheat at the gate of the Son of Heaven need courage. Yu Wei glanced at the two rows of guards standing on both sides of the gate of the Gongyuan.
They were all wearing armor and belonged to the guards of the Capital Security Department. This time they were specially dealing with those candidates who would cheat.
Once you find it, drag it away!
The cold air in early spring is severe, and the exam in Chunwei takes a long time. The charcoal placed in the dormitory is hardly enough for the candidates, and the Gongyuan is afraid that the candidates will fall asleep during the exam and catch fire, so the candidates are not allowed to bring much charcoal. .
Those who couldn't bear the cold by nature lit the charcoal at the first time, but there was no charcoal in the next few days. Those who couldn't bear the cold felt regretful and had nothing to do, so they had to speed up the speed of writing on the answer sheet.
Qi Fei read all the questions first, and after he had the idea of answering the questions in his mind, he immersed himself in answering the questions.At this time, he was writing silently according to what he wanted in his heart, but in the middle of writing, he heard the sound of teeth chattering and sniffling by his ears, the hand holding the pen paused, and his train of thought stopped.
When I continued to write with ink, I suddenly heard the sound of teeth chattering from the examinee on the left.
"..." In order to pass the exam quietly, Qi Fei had to light the charcoal prepared for him by Ayu in the exam basket.
The charcoal that Yu Wei prepared for Qi Fei was the high-quality silver silk charcoal. When the warm heat poured into the whole house, the trembling sound of Qi Fei's houses on both sides disappeared a lot.
Soon, a word sounded from the halls on both sides at the same time.
"Thank you, brother!"
Qi Fei ignored it, pondered for a while, and then followed the train of thought just now to answer the question.
After a few days of exam time, some people were exhausted, their faces turned pale, and they were almost carried out.
Yu Wei came in a carriage this time, it was spacious and comfortable, and all kinds of digestible hot food and warming soup had already been prepared inside.
After Qi Fei came out of the examination room, he saw Yu Wei waiting beside the carriage, hurriedly got rid of the two people who were following him, and rushed over quickly.
After getting into the carriage, Yu Wei curiously asked who they were and what they were doing with you.
"I don't know them," Qi Fei probably felt that it was not clear, so he talked about what happened in the examination room.
After hearing their miserable experience in the examination room, Yu Wei laughed without any sympathy.
Laughing with tears in his eyes, he stopped. He covered his aching stomach and said with a smile, "Fortunately, you have been recuperating from the cold hands and feet since you were a child, otherwise you would have a snot from the cold like them." Think about it like this There were two bundles of 'ice skates' hanging on his handsome face, and Yu Wei couldn't help laughing again.
When Qi Fei heard that he still remembered the problem of cold hands and feet when he was a child, he couldn't help but curled his eyebrows and felt warm.
Seeing the lingering joy on Ayu's eyebrows at this time, Qi Fei pursed his lips and smiled.
Back in the mansion, the servants had already prepared things for bathing, and no one in the mansion asked Qi Fei about the result of the exam, not because he was afraid that he would not do well in the exam, but because he believed that he would get the top spot. asked.
After several months in the capital, Qi Fei, who has participated in many student associations, his reputation has already been spread throughout the capital by those classmates who appreciate his knowledge and teachers who value his well-written articles. , even the master of the palace has heard about it.
The Great Yan Dynasty has a history of a hundred years, its military strength is excellent, and its foundation is not bad. Today's court places more emphasis on culture than military.Therefore, the current emperor attaches great importance to the results of Chunwei's examination this time, and the responsibility of those examiners is even greater.
In the days when the examinees were anxiously waiting for the release of the results, the right minister who presided over the spring entered the palace with the test papers submitted by the chief examiners below in his pocket.
The imperial palace, Luohua Palace.
"The Emperor is here—"
Yu Luo paused with the chopsticks in his hand, and hurriedly got up to greet him.
"My concubine is free." The emperor smiled and shook her hand.
Yu Luo got up smoothly, then pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The emperor is here at this hour, have you had lunch? You go in and rest first, and I will go to the small kitchen to cook some of the emperor's favorite food."
"I have eaten the meal, so I don't have to work hard for my concubine to cook." The emperor smiled wrinkled when he heard her concern.
The two entered the palace and sat down, waved away the maids and servants standing there, and the emperor held Yu Luo's hand and said the purpose.
"Aifei, do you recognize Qi Fei?"
Yu Luo was slightly stunned, and didn't realize for a while what the emperor said about another person's name when he came to her palace. Subconsciously, he wondered if it was a new beauty brought into the palace by the emperor when he went out to play. After careful consideration, he realized that the name Qi Fei was very familiar.
When the emperor saw the beauty in front of him, he frowned and pondered for a long time, but there was no result, so he couldn't help but squeezed her palm distressedly, and took the initiative to explain.
"A few days ago, Prime Minister You submitted the test papers of the candidates. After I reviewed them, I admired a candidate named Qi Fei. His writing was really good, and he was among the top ten candidates submitted by the examiners. among."
Yu Luo said: "Since that person is valued by the emperor, he must indeed be a useful talent."
"I just don't know if this person can be reused," the emperor's eyes deepened, and he glanced at the concubine Luo who lowered her head slightly, "I heard from the right minister, several of my princes have invited this person to a banquet, but He rejected them one by one."
Yu Luo was stunned, trying to understand the purpose of the emperor's visit this time. Although he didn't understand why he asked this concubine to talk about the affairs of the court, he thought about it carefully and came back to his own conclusion.
"My concubine has only heard the words "disciple of the emperor, the emperor is the emperor, and they are all your disciples."
The emperor laughed out loud when he heard the blunt words, and fell in love with Yu Luo in his arms even more, especially since the examinee he was looking for came from the same family as her.
"Does my concubine know, this Qi Fei is from your Yu family?"
Yu Luo had already recalled where she heard the name. It was her younger brother Yu Wei who always waited for Qi Fei when he wrote to her, but except for the first time the word Qi Fei was written in the letter, Almost all of the subsequent letters appeared as "Afei", so it was a little difficult for her to recall just now.
However, Yu Luo still showed confusion on his face, expressing that he had no idea who Qi Fei was at all, regardless of the performance of clearing Qi Fei of suspicion just now.
The emperor laughed, and he was very happy to know the news before his concubine.
"My concubine has been away from home for a few years. After the announcement of the rankings, I will issue an order to let your family members enter the palace to meet my concubine."
With a smile on Yu Luo's face, he hurriedly got up to thank him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
A few days later, it was the day when the results were released, and the front of the Gongyuan in the capital was already full of candidates and spectators.
Not long after the list was released, the news that Qi Fei won the first place in the exam was announced by the young servant at home. Not only the court messengers who played drums and gongs followed into the Yu Mansion, but also the current emperor's personal manager.
After reading out the imperial decree, the personal manager took over the money rewarded by Yu Tang, and said with a smile: "The emperor saw that the concubine Luo hadn't seen her family for several years, and didn't know that there were more younger brothers and sisters in the family. Seeing a few of them, so as to recognize them, the miscellaneous family is waiting outside the door. "
As soon as the others left, Yu Wei and Qi Fei looked at each other and saw that he seemed a little nervous, so they smiled and said, "Don't worry, my second sister is very gentle and doesn't know how to eat people."
Qi Fei glanced back at Yu Wei and nodded.
The group of people changed into new clothes and were inspected by the palace guards, then entered the palace in the palace's carriage and followed the chief manager's carriage.
When they arrived in the harem, they learned that the emperor was in the imperial study room, so Yu Tang led them to the direction of the imperial study room to meet Emperor Dayan.
"Your Majesty, the Minister's lord is asking to see you outside the palace."
"He has a heart, just tell him to go directly to the Royal Garden and wait. After I review the memorial, I will go directly to the Royal Garden with my concubine."
Yu Tang, who received the order outside the hall, led people to worship inside the hall, and then followed a young eunuch to the imperial garden.
In the deep palace, knowing that nothing can be said indiscriminately, the team was extremely quiet along the way, and the little eunuch left after taking them to the imperial garden.
After the group of people sat down in the pavilion, Yu Wei's sleeves were suddenly pulled, and he looked at Qi Fei with doubts in his eyes.
Qi Fei pointed to a golden koi swimming happily in the pool outside the pavilion, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "It's very similar to A Yu."
Yu Wei looked along his fingers, couldn't help the black line on his forehead, glared at him, then pointed to somewhere in the pool, "You are like them! Especially the one that is too clumsy to swim is the most like you!"
Qi Fei glanced at it for a moment, then said with a smile: "Well, like me."
Yu Wei: "..."
"Cough cough."
Yu Wei quickly turned his head and asked, "Brother, when did you catch the cold?"
When he asked this, Yu Tang coughed even harder, "Ahem——"
Seeing that he was coughing so badly, Yu Tang's wife hurriedly stood up to help pat his back.
Yu Tang paused for a while, said to his wife 'I'm fine', then pointed to the gold and silver koi in the pond, "Do you know that these two koi are marriage fish bestowed by the emperor, and they are also That is to say, they are spouses, and the emperor specially raises them to see if they can produce new species."
Yu Wei: "..."
Yu Tang looked at Qi Fei with deep meaning in his eyes, "You and Ah Wei can easily point out a couple who seem to be destined for them."
Just "pointing out the country" can point out that the behavior of a couple is very embarrassing, and there is a touch of unnaturalness on their faces.
Qi Fei raised his eyes and looked at Yu Tang, and said seriously: "Big brother said that I have a great destiny with that golden koi."
"The empress is here—"
"His Royal Highness is here—"
"The sixth princess is here—"
Yu Tang in the pavilion was startled, instead of waiting for the emperor and concubine Luo to come, the lord of the harem and the people from the East Palace came first, and his thoughts changed involuntarily.
Yu Tang led everyone out of the pavilion to salute, "I have met the Empress, Your Royal Highness, the Princess."
"Exemption."
Yu Wei and his group stood on one side with their heads bowed.
The queen stroked the brightly blooming flowers beside her with her fingers, and asked leisurely: "I heard from the crown prince that the flowers in the imperial garden are blooming well today, so I came to have a look. Why is Master Yu also in the imperial garden?"
Yu Tang bowed and replied: "Go back to your mother, I have ordered you to wait here for the emperor and my concubine."
Hearing Concubine Luo, the Queen's eyes flashed with disgust, and she ruthlessly pinched the flower stem with her fingertips, "I heard that in your Yu family, Concubine Luo has a younger brother besides your elder brother."
Yu Tang nodded in agreement.
The queen's eyes fell behind him, "I heard that Concubine Luo hasn't seen him for several years, but the emperor specially ordered Concubine Luo to meet him today. I don't know which of the two young men behind you belongs to Concubine Luo Brother? Lift up your face and let me see
Su Ying'er couldn't help laughing when she heard his question, "There is also a caravan from the Yu family with me, and my aunt ordered the caravan to bring some things over."
Hearing his mother's name, Yu Wei rubbed his nose and probed a little: "After I came out, did my mother say anything?"
Su Ying'er pursed her lips and smiled, and whispered about the situation after he left.
"Since learning that you slipped out of the house pretending to be sick that day, my aunt was so angry that she found out the whip that had not been used for a long time, and ordered the servants to soak the whip in pepper water for an hour every day."
Hearing that, Yu Wei's face froze, and there was a faint pain somewhere that always felt good.
Su Ying'er said: "Fortunately, not long after, the Yu Mansion received a letter from Qi Fei. Auntie then knew that you planned to go to Beijing with him."
letter?Yu Wei turned his head to Qi Fei who was quietly standing beside him, and he unexpectedly sent a letter back home at some point.He thought for a while, after leaving Pingxi City, apart from rolling into Qi Fei's arms every time he went to bed, so he didn't have a good rest, he probably didn't do any other things to bully him.
"What else was written in the letter? Say, have you complained to my mother?"
The boy looked up to the right, obviously asking Qi Fei.Seeing a sly look in the boy's eyes, Su Ying'er knew that he was joking, so Su Ying'er stopped explaining for Qi Fei.
The person being questioned didn't reply right away, but looked down at Yu Wei in silence, and after a while he said helplessly, "Nothing."
Yu Wei rolled his eyes, "Really?"
Qi Fei sighed and said: "Zhan Xinjia... Ayu is under my care, don't worry about uncles and aunts..."
Teenagers aged [-] or [-] are already in the period of voice change. At this stage, they either speak hoarsely and their voice is extremely ugly.However, Qi Fei's voice is different from others, it is clear and clear, like a stream of clear spring hitting rocks, ding dong ding dong, very pleasant to hear.
But why is this talking like reading a book?
Yu Wei was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he was reading the content of the letter again, and hurriedly called to stop.
Qi Fei pursed her thin lips slightly, and did not continue reading.
The three of them stood quietly in front of the steps, when suddenly someone rushed in.
"Master, Master—"
Yu Wei looked sideways, raised his eyebrows slightly, "Yuanbao?"
Hearing the young master calling his name, Yuan Bao's eyes lit up immediately, and he cried in his heart, fortunately the young master did not forget himself.
Seeing Yuan Bao eager to rush forward in surprise, Yu Wei hastily took a step towards Qi Fei, "Why are you here?"
"Master, Madam ordered me to come here with the caravan. Madam is worried that you won't be used to other people, and Madam even asked me to bring things here."
After Yuan Bao finished speaking, he hurriedly took out a roll of things from his lapel and handed it to the surprised Yu Wei.
Yu Wei took it and opened it without thinking too much. When his eyes fell on it, his face instantly turned red.
He suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly looked sideways, only to see Qi Fei staring at the object in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.
With a "chuckle", Yu quickly closed the object in his hand and moved away from someone at the same time.
Qi Fei glanced at Yu Wei in confusion, not understanding the reason for his sudden move.
Yu Wei gritted his teeth and pulled Yuan Bao, who was scratching his head in confusion, to the side to ask questions, and showed him something.
"Are you sure my mother asked you to bring me this thing?"
Yuan Bao looked down, his eyes widened, and he quickly explained.
"Young Master, I pretended to be wrong, Madam didn't give me this fire avoidance map..."
"This fire-avoidance map was probably given to me by my mother, because I, I got married not long ago..."
Hearing these three words, Yu Wei's face was full of black lines, so he lowered his voice and said, "Keep your voice down."
Yuan Bao nodded quickly, and also whispered back: "Actually, what Madam asked me to bring to the young master were some portraits of women who were to be married. Madam said it was a coming-of-age gift for you in advance..."
Halfway through his words, Yu Wei suddenly straightened up, "Woman to be married??"
In the front, Yu Wei and the two were still talking in a low voice under the tree, and they could vaguely hear A Yu's breath coming out of his extreme anger.
The two people in the conversation were completely unaware of their conversation, and Qi Fei had already heard them one by one.
Qi Fei didn't just have a photographic memory in reading, when the words "avoiding the fire map" entered his ears, the things that he had just stumbled upon automatically appeared in Qi Fei's mind.After figuring out why just now when A Yu withdrew his hands to prevent him from looking, Qi Fei tightened his hands slightly, showing a look of unnaturalness on his face.
After his mood calmed down a bit, he heard Yu Wei and the two's follow-up words, Qi Fei's hands tightened suddenly, and his fingers were almost embedded in his palms.
Su Ying'er asked worriedly, she didn't hear the conversation in front of her, but only saw Qi Fei's suddenly tense body.
Qi Fei closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "It's nothing."
As soon as the New Year's Day of the Great Yan Dynasty passed, the New Year ushered in, and the city of Yanjing was full of excitement.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the traditional Lantern Festival in the Yan Dynasty. When night fell, Yu Wei and his party dressed in new clothes and set off from the mansion to the bustling streets.
The acrobatics on the street, the lamps in the shops, Yu Wei couldn't miss the freshness of seeing them, the people coming and going on the street, a few people can be separated if they don't pay attention.
Seeing that Yu Wei was hit by another person on the shoulder, Qi Fei stretched out his hand to grab a corner of his sleeve, frowned and said, "There is a snack stall next to it, let's go there and rest for a while."
Yu Wei turned around with difficulty, and saw a small stall selling chaos next to him, and the smell wafted to his nostrils through the crowd.
His eyes lit up, he happened to be a little hungry after shopping for a long time, he hurriedly greeted Su Yinger and the guards of the Yu Mansion to go to the chaos stall, and then held Qi Fei's hand behind his back and led him to find a seat and sit down.
Until the stall owner put down a few bowls of Chaos, Qi Fei was still staring at his wrist that A Yu had held.
As the night darkened and the lantern festival became more and more lively, Yu Wei found that almost all the people who came to the lantern festival were accompanied by men and women.
Seeing this, Yu Wei turned his eyes back to the two people beside him, and found that Su Yinger was on his right and Qi Fei was on his left, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
He deliberately paused while walking, leaving a gap for the two of them to be side by side.
Qi Fei stopped, turned around and asked, "Ayu?"
Yu Wei glanced at the jade shop next to him, and suddenly said, "I'm tired."
Qi Fei raised a smile on his lips, "Then let's go into this shop and have a look?"
Yu Wei pretended to be dispensable, and stepped in first.
When the shop staff Yingying came, Yu Wei pretended not to say: "The last time Sister Ying'er gave birth to Ji, I vaguely remembered that you didn't give her Ji Ji gift."
Before the two of them could answer, Yu Wei took a step forward first, walked around the shop but found nothing interesting, curled his lips and was about to tell the two to leave.
When he turned around, he found that Qi Fei was standing in front of the cabinet full of jade and watching, asking the attendant in the shop in a low voice from time to time, and pointing in the direction of Su Yinger.
Yu Wei twisted the corner of his mouth, quietly led the guards out of the shop, and waited for the two outside the shop.
When it was almost a stick of incense, Su Ying'er slowly stepped out of the threshold, while Qi Fei walked behind silently, and Yu Wei's eyes fell directly on the former's bun.
The green hairpin there is no longer the one that Su Ying'er wears when she goes out.
Yu Wei pretended not to notice, and proposed to take a stroll by the Yan River, and the two naturally had no objection.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, it is a custom in the Yan Dynasty to place lanterns by the river to make wishes, so there will be many unmarried men and women gathered by the Yan River, most of whom come here to make a wish to meet a close person in the future.
Yu Wei took the lantern that Qi Fei had bought, and instead of writing wishes on it like the others, he just casually put it into the river and let it drift into the water.
Make a wish?He never believed it, especially after encountering the system.
After Qi Fei was also put away, Yu Wei said, "Let's go and join Sister Ying'er."
The places where men and women put lanterns are different, and Su Ying'er is probably still on the other side.When the two walked halfway, they found Su Yinger's figure in the crowd, but found a man standing beside her, and the two seemed to be having a very happy conversation.
Yu Wei looked at the man's imposing attire, and guessed that his family was either rich or noble, but he didn't know how he and Su Ying'er got involved.
On the way back home, Yu Wei found out that it was Su Ying'er who had finished setting off the lanterns, and when she returned, she met a thief. The green hairpin in her hair was picked off by someone, and it was the young master who helped her. Chased back.
Yu Wei nodded and didn't think about it.Unexpectedly, after a few days, an unexpected visitor came to the house.
When his elder brother called him to the reception hall, Yu Wei was still puzzled, but when his eyes fell on the faces of the guests who came there, he understood.As long as there is a man who has met the heroine in the book, there is no one who does not want to snatch her away.
The person who came was the young man who helped Su Ying'er a few days ago.
Yu Wei asked his elder brother with his eyes, only to see Yu Tang coughed twice, pointed at the man and said, "Ah Wei, this is the current crown prince, so he still hasn't come over to salute."
Yu Wei opened his eyes suddenly, one of the men who caused Su Yinger's tragic fate in the book?
"Young master's expression seems to be that he knows Gu?"
Not only do I know each other, I not only know that you will be deposed in the future, but you will also be permanently imprisoned in the Prince's Mansion by Qi Fei's order, and you will not be allowed to go out.
Yu Wei complained silently in his heart.
Yu Tang glanced at the silent Yu Wei, and hurriedly explained: "The prince is joking, my little brother has lived in the south of the Yangtze River all year round, and he just entered Beijing not long ago. He has been confined in the mansion, so how could he meet the prince?"
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and told Yu Wei who was standing stupidly to come over and salute. Yu Wei moved his feet and clasped his fists.
"Meet the prince."
Yang Qingjun smiled and raised his hand in exemption.
Yu Tang waved his hand and asked Yu Wei to find a place to sit down at random, then smiled and said to the prince: "Just now the prince's proposal is not because the lower officials refused to agree, the prince doesn't know about it, Su Yinger's marriage contract is not something I can decide."
Yu Wei turned to his eldest brother with a 'swish' face, "What do you mean by what elder brother said?"
The prince came to the mansion to leave Su Ying'er?
Yang Qingjun stopped holding the tea, raised his eyes to look at the two, and said unhurriedly: "You called Mr. Yu, do you mean that Su Yinger's marriage contract is decided by him?"
Yu Tang smiled wryly, "Don't dare to expire the crown prince, then Su Ying'er belongs to my younger brother, not from our Yu Mansion."
After speaking, he turned his head and explained to Yu Wei the reason for the prince's visit.
"The prince met Ying'er last time during the Lantern Festival, and he fell in love with Ying'er very much. He came to the mansion today because he wanted to marry Ying'er."
like?The corner of Yu Wei's mouth twitched, and what he said was nice, it's not that he didn't follow the routine of being married by a medium, and married someone who entered the mansion as a concubine.
If you want to change Su Yinger's tragic fate, you have to cut off any connection between her and the prince from today.
Covered by his sleeves, Yu Wei secretly pinched his thigh, his face turned pale suddenly.
When he raised his eyes, his face was full of embarrassment: "It's our Yu family's blessing that the crown prince can take a fancy to my Ying'er, but we are not blessed to enjoy it. Ying'er and I have been peeing since we were young... ..”
"That's all!" Yang Qingjun's face was ugly, and he refused to listen to him, always feeling that if he listened to it, his prince's face would be trampled on the ground.
What this person meant was to say that he, a prince, actually came to the mansion to rob another family's fiancée by force!
"Prince, calm down!" Yu Tang hurriedly pulled Yu Wei who was still about to speak and bowed to salute.
Yang Qingjun stood up from his seat, stared at Yu Wei's face for a while, a gleam of predation flashed across his eyes, and it disappeared when he raised his hand to let the two get up.
A smile appeared on his face again, "It's a lonely demon. I didn't expect that Miss Su might have a marriage contract. As the Crown Prince of Great Yan alone, how can she take advantage of others."
Yu Wei returned a smirk.
Yang Qingjun turned to look at Yu Tang, and said with a sudden smile: "Just now I saw that Young Master Yu looks very familiar, I must have met him somewhere, but now I remember where I met him."
Yu Wei looked up: "?"
Yang Qingjun continued: "The lonely sixth emperor sister went out to play a few days ago, but she met a bandit when she didn't want to. I heard that she was rescued by a young son."
Yu Tang's tone was slightly startled: "Princess Qinglian?"
Yang Qingjun nodded, thought for a while and said, "I remember that mountain was called You Bandit Mountain, and was later recruited by the local government."
Yu Wei was stunned, so he said, what does that have to do with him, since he had used some drugs at the beginning, and he had never saved any woman.
"After the sixth imperial sister returned to the palace, she drew a picture of the young son, and kept arranging for people to investigate his whereabouts, saying that she wanted to repay her kindness. I heard that because of this, she rejected her father's proposed marriage, and said bluntly that she would marry him after she found a lifesaver. "
This long paragraph of meaningful words made Yu Wei feel like Sparta.
Yu Tang asked his younger brother in a low voice, "Have you ever been to Bandit Mountain?"
How could Yu Wei dare to admit that even if he had no impression of saving any woman, he quickly shook his head.
Yu Tang immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Although his Yu family only had him as an official in the court, the Yu family's great reputation is not for nothing, and their Yu family has always been taken away by several people in the palace. The prince wins over.
If the marriage with any prince is involved, in the eyes of outsiders, it is basically a sideline.
But their Yu family has always been a neutral faction regardless of the matter of seizing the heir.
Seeing the prince visiting in plain clothes today, Yu Tang kept holding his breath, fearing that the prince would win over the Yu family to stand in line, but in the end, he really didn't think wrong.
The prince came to the Yu family to win them over.
Yu Tang took a deep breath, bowed his hands to the prince and said: "Prince, my younger brother also said that he has never been to any bandit mountain, and his appearance is ordinary, similar to most people, probably similar to saving Qinglian. The princesses just look alike."
"..." Yu Wei touched his face, his eyes added a layer of meaning, and he had a deeper understanding of his elder brother's ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense.
Yang Qingjun was also taken aback, glanced at Yu Wei, then smiled and said bluntly: "Master Yu is just joking, there is no other purpose for Gu's remarks. Gu sees that Young Master Yu is handsome and quite heroic, but he is not old enough. Fifteen, presumably the parents in the house haven't married him yet?"
"After I return to the palace alone, I have to talk to the sixth imperial sister about meeting Young Master Yu who is very similar to her savior. She must be very interested in this matter."
Yu Wei is full of black lines and has no other purpose, so why ask if he is engaged!
-
Spring is just around the corner, and the capital is where all the students gather. The restaurants are almost full of students, and most of them are used to hold poetry gatherings and students discuss Taoism.
After Qi Fei came to Beijing, he didn't stay bored in the mansion all the time. After Yu Tang's introduction, he got to know many people with real talents and real learning.Occasionally, he was invited to participate in various seminars held by them, because most of the people he met came from the Capital Academy, and there were also teachers from the academy present during the seminars, so he could get a lot of goods in almost every session.
After the discussion of the students today, Qi Fei went to a place first, and then returned to the Yu Mansion.
After entering the courtyard and ordering someone to bring hot water, he pushed the door open and walked in. When he turned sideways to unbutton his clothes, his raised hands froze.
He looked up at the young man lying on his bed, and said in a daze, "Why did Ayu come here?"
With a sound of "Yeah", Yu turned over, looked at him standing by the door, and waved to say hello, "You're back." Then with a push of his legs, he jumped off the edge of the bed and went to the bookshelf go. "Go on, I don't want to look at you."
"It's true that I called you a nerd. If I want to find a good book from you, I can't find it." As he said, Yu Wei stuffed a book of historical records in his hand into the bookshelf, and tapped the books on the shelf. Books, I read that they are all books related to learning, but I didn't find a drama script.
Qi Fei approached slowly, hesitantly said: "If Ayu wants to see it, I can buy it and put it up tomorrow."
Yu Wei pouted, "Forget it, I'm just bored today and want to read it, and I won't be interested in it tomorrow." Thinking of what the prince said in the morning, he couldn't help poking the book in front of him bitterly.
"Then I'll go out first..." After the words fell, Yu Wei, who was about to turn around and leave, suddenly caught a glimpse of a book without a name written in it, "What book is this?"
Qi Fei followed his line of sight, his cheeks turned red, and when he saw Yu Wei, he was about to reach out and take it out to watch.
He was anxious, his body was one step ahead of his thoughts, he leaned forward suddenly and stretched out one hand to press Yu Wei's wrist, and the other hand reached behind Yu Wei's waist to prevent him from hitting the bookshelf and suffering pain.
Wall, wall dong!When Yu Wei was suddenly trapped in Qi Fei's arms, this word immediately appeared in his mind when he was stunned.
Qi Fei put the 'unnamed book' on a high place, and felt that Ayu couldn't reach it, so he lowered his head and explained: "This book is not good, wait for me tomorrow..."
The next second, he felt a kick on his calf, and wanted to explain again, when the other calf was suddenly kicked again.
The strength was not great, but it seemed to be able to kick Qi Fei's heart. He looked down at the angry eyes of the man in his arms, and was speechless for a moment. He didn't know how to explain it so that A Yu would not misunderstand him. It wasn't that he didn't want to read the book.
Yu Wei stretched out his foot and kicked the person twice, but Qi Fei still let go of his arms around his waist, took a deep breath and said, "Bookworm, you can't do it!"
Qi Fei looked slightly startled, "Isn't Ah Yu angry..."
"What are you angry about?"
Yu Wei raised his head, poked his chest with his finger, and raised his voice slightly: "If you still don't get out of the way, I'm going to be out of breath!"
Qi Fei immediately turned sideways obediently.
After all the strength on the waist and wrists was withdrawn, Yu Wei, who accidentally touched the bookshelf behind, moved his body uncomfortably, his face was full of dissatisfaction.
"What kind of book is that, why can't I, young master, read it?"
Qi Fei rubbed his fingers, but couldn't feel the smoothness just now, so he replied in a low voice: "I have already read the travel notes of an unknown person, and there is nothing interesting in them."
Afraid that he was bringing the topic to that 'book', Qi Fei abruptly changed the topic.
"Why is Ah Yu feeling bored today?"
"It's not that—" Yu Wei's voice paused, and instead of explaining first, he raised his face and asked, "Qi Fei, what do you think of my appearance?"
Qi Fei paused, raised his eyes to stare at the young man's jade-like face and the pair of amber eyes that attracted his whole heart, before he said with difficulty: "Excellent."
Yu Wei's eyebrows furrowed, and he said firmly, "No, you want to say that my appearance is ordinary!"
Qi Fei was speechless for a moment.
The ordinary appearance is definitely not the savior of Princess Qinglian, Yu Wei lowered his eyes and recited these words silently, deceiving himself like this.
"Did Ayu encounter something today?"
Yu Wei thought about it, and said tentatively: "Someone came to ask Sister Ying'er to marry her today..." At this point, he deliberately paused for a second, seeing that there was no reaction on his face, he couldn't help venting his emotions. Tone, muttered a nerd.
Then he talked about what happened in the morning like a joke: "The man failed to ask for a marriage. Instead, he said that he still has a younger sister at home. Seeing me as a young talent, he wanted to betroth his younger sister to me."
"Snapped--"
Yu Wei was startled, and when he looked up, he suddenly saw the cold aura surging around Qi Fei, and the unlucky bookshelf that was tilted on the wall.
Er, is Qi Fei's reflex arc so long? ?It's only now that I'm angry that sister Ying'er was proposed to marry me.
Afraid that he would do something out of anger, Yu Wei hurriedly explained, "Brother already rejected that person."
"... Yours declined too?"
"?" Although he didn't understand why he still cared about his marriage, Yu Wei nodded and said, not forgetting to add fire to him.
"Brother refused together. After all, Sister Ying'er and I are going to get married together. How can we marry or marry another person?"
Qi Fei clenched his hands into fists, feeling that the fire in his heart had just subsided and started to rise again, and the person who lit the fire didn't know it yet, and his face was full of smiles.
......
On a spring day in Yanjing City, there was more rain than snow, and it rained for several days without clearing up.Many students who are about to take part in the Spring Festival have complained about the weather. They are afraid that it will be raining heavily during the few days of the exam. If that is the case, how can these frail scholars be able to withstand the cold.
God pity, at the beginning of February, the pouring rain was finally replaced by a drizzle.On this day at Yinshi (after three o'clock in the morning), the gate of the Gongyuan in the capital city opened as scheduled, and the students who had been waiting for a long time with umbrellas did not rush forward, but obediently lined up to enter under the order of the guards.
They are all imperial examination candidates who have come to Chunwei, and the probability of encountering the top grade is greatly reduced like last time.
Yu Wei retracted his gaze from the examinee, covered his mouth and thought of it haha.
Yu Tang, who was helping to open the umbrella, saw it and said with a smile: "But I'm sleepy, why don't you go home first, I'll watch here."
"Not sleepy," Yu Wei straightened his body immediately, "I'll go back to the house after they all go in."
Yu Tang shook his head dumbfounded, and looked at Qi Fei who was seriously queuing up.
Same as the last provincial examination, the candidates who lined up to enter the Gongyuan need to take off their clothes for inspection, but there is an extra item of bathing naked. This time, Chunwei is much stricter than the previous imperial examinations. From Yu Wei, I didn’t see any of them being searched out. Candidates who read the cheat sheet will be able to see it.
Candidates who dare to cheat at the gate of the Son of Heaven need courage. Yu Wei glanced at the two rows of guards standing on both sides of the gate of the Gongyuan.
They were all wearing armor and belonged to the guards of the Capital Security Department. This time they were specially dealing with those candidates who would cheat.
Once you find it, drag it away!
The cold air in early spring is severe, and the exam in Chunwei takes a long time. The charcoal placed in the dormitory is hardly enough for the candidates, and the Gongyuan is afraid that the candidates will fall asleep during the exam and catch fire, so the candidates are not allowed to bring much charcoal. .
Those who couldn't bear the cold by nature lit the charcoal at the first time, but there was no charcoal in the next few days. Those who couldn't bear the cold felt regretful and had nothing to do, so they had to speed up the speed of writing on the answer sheet.
Qi Fei read all the questions first, and after he had the idea of answering the questions in his mind, he immersed himself in answering the questions.At this time, he was writing silently according to what he wanted in his heart, but in the middle of writing, he heard the sound of teeth chattering and sniffling by his ears, the hand holding the pen paused, and his train of thought stopped.
When I continued to write with ink, I suddenly heard the sound of teeth chattering from the examinee on the left.
"..." In order to pass the exam quietly, Qi Fei had to light the charcoal prepared for him by Ayu in the exam basket.
The charcoal that Yu Wei prepared for Qi Fei was the high-quality silver silk charcoal. When the warm heat poured into the whole house, the trembling sound of Qi Fei's houses on both sides disappeared a lot.
Soon, a word sounded from the halls on both sides at the same time.
"Thank you, brother!"
Qi Fei ignored it, pondered for a while, and then followed the train of thought just now to answer the question.
After a few days of exam time, some people were exhausted, their faces turned pale, and they were almost carried out.
Yu Wei came in a carriage this time, it was spacious and comfortable, and all kinds of digestible hot food and warming soup had already been prepared inside.
After Qi Fei came out of the examination room, he saw Yu Wei waiting beside the carriage, hurriedly got rid of the two people who were following him, and rushed over quickly.
After getting into the carriage, Yu Wei curiously asked who they were and what they were doing with you.
"I don't know them," Qi Fei probably felt that it was not clear, so he talked about what happened in the examination room.
After hearing their miserable experience in the examination room, Yu Wei laughed without any sympathy.
Laughing with tears in his eyes, he stopped. He covered his aching stomach and said with a smile, "Fortunately, you have been recuperating from the cold hands and feet since you were a child, otherwise you would have a snot from the cold like them." Think about it like this There were two bundles of 'ice skates' hanging on his handsome face, and Yu Wei couldn't help laughing again.
When Qi Fei heard that he still remembered the problem of cold hands and feet when he was a child, he couldn't help but curled his eyebrows and felt warm.
Seeing the lingering joy on Ayu's eyebrows at this time, Qi Fei pursed his lips and smiled.
Back in the mansion, the servants had already prepared things for bathing, and no one in the mansion asked Qi Fei about the result of the exam, not because he was afraid that he would not do well in the exam, but because he believed that he would get the top spot. asked.
After several months in the capital, Qi Fei, who has participated in many student associations, his reputation has already been spread throughout the capital by those classmates who appreciate his knowledge and teachers who value his well-written articles. , even the master of the palace has heard about it.
The Great Yan Dynasty has a history of a hundred years, its military strength is excellent, and its foundation is not bad. Today's court places more emphasis on culture than military.Therefore, the current emperor attaches great importance to the results of Chunwei's examination this time, and the responsibility of those examiners is even greater.
In the days when the examinees were anxiously waiting for the release of the results, the right minister who presided over the spring entered the palace with the test papers submitted by the chief examiners below in his pocket.
The imperial palace, Luohua Palace.
"The Emperor is here—"
Yu Luo paused with the chopsticks in his hand, and hurriedly got up to greet him.
"My concubine is free." The emperor smiled and shook her hand.
Yu Luo got up smoothly, then pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The emperor is here at this hour, have you had lunch? You go in and rest first, and I will go to the small kitchen to cook some of the emperor's favorite food."
"I have eaten the meal, so I don't have to work hard for my concubine to cook." The emperor smiled wrinkled when he heard her concern.
The two entered the palace and sat down, waved away the maids and servants standing there, and the emperor held Yu Luo's hand and said the purpose.
"Aifei, do you recognize Qi Fei?"
Yu Luo was slightly stunned, and didn't realize for a while what the emperor said about another person's name when he came to her palace. Subconsciously, he wondered if it was a new beauty brought into the palace by the emperor when he went out to play. After careful consideration, he realized that the name Qi Fei was very familiar.
When the emperor saw the beauty in front of him, he frowned and pondered for a long time, but there was no result, so he couldn't help but squeezed her palm distressedly, and took the initiative to explain.
"A few days ago, Prime Minister You submitted the test papers of the candidates. After I reviewed them, I admired a candidate named Qi Fei. His writing was really good, and he was among the top ten candidates submitted by the examiners. among."
Yu Luo said: "Since that person is valued by the emperor, he must indeed be a useful talent."
"I just don't know if this person can be reused," the emperor's eyes deepened, and he glanced at the concubine Luo who lowered her head slightly, "I heard from the right minister, several of my princes have invited this person to a banquet, but He rejected them one by one."
Yu Luo was stunned, trying to understand the purpose of the emperor's visit this time. Although he didn't understand why he asked this concubine to talk about the affairs of the court, he thought about it carefully and came back to his own conclusion.
"My concubine has only heard the words "disciple of the emperor, the emperor is the emperor, and they are all your disciples."
The emperor laughed out loud when he heard the blunt words, and fell in love with Yu Luo in his arms even more, especially since the examinee he was looking for came from the same family as her.
"Does my concubine know, this Qi Fei is from your Yu family?"
Yu Luo had already recalled where she heard the name. It was her younger brother Yu Wei who always waited for Qi Fei when he wrote to her, but except for the first time the word Qi Fei was written in the letter, Almost all of the subsequent letters appeared as "Afei", so it was a little difficult for her to recall just now.
However, Yu Luo still showed confusion on his face, expressing that he had no idea who Qi Fei was at all, regardless of the performance of clearing Qi Fei of suspicion just now.
The emperor laughed, and he was very happy to know the news before his concubine.
"My concubine has been away from home for a few years. After the announcement of the rankings, I will issue an order to let your family members enter the palace to meet my concubine."
With a smile on Yu Luo's face, he hurriedly got up to thank him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
A few days later, it was the day when the results were released, and the front of the Gongyuan in the capital was already full of candidates and spectators.
Not long after the list was released, the news that Qi Fei won the first place in the exam was announced by the young servant at home. Not only the court messengers who played drums and gongs followed into the Yu Mansion, but also the current emperor's personal manager.
After reading out the imperial decree, the personal manager took over the money rewarded by Yu Tang, and said with a smile: "The emperor saw that the concubine Luo hadn't seen her family for several years, and didn't know that there were more younger brothers and sisters in the family. Seeing a few of them, so as to recognize them, the miscellaneous family is waiting outside the door. "
As soon as the others left, Yu Wei and Qi Fei looked at each other and saw that he seemed a little nervous, so they smiled and said, "Don't worry, my second sister is very gentle and doesn't know how to eat people."
Qi Fei glanced back at Yu Wei and nodded.
The group of people changed into new clothes and were inspected by the palace guards, then entered the palace in the palace's carriage and followed the chief manager's carriage.
When they arrived in the harem, they learned that the emperor was in the imperial study room, so Yu Tang led them to the direction of the imperial study room to meet Emperor Dayan.
"Your Majesty, the Minister's lord is asking to see you outside the palace."
"He has a heart, just tell him to go directly to the Royal Garden and wait. After I review the memorial, I will go directly to the Royal Garden with my concubine."
Yu Tang, who received the order outside the hall, led people to worship inside the hall, and then followed a young eunuch to the imperial garden.
In the deep palace, knowing that nothing can be said indiscriminately, the team was extremely quiet along the way, and the little eunuch left after taking them to the imperial garden.
After the group of people sat down in the pavilion, Yu Wei's sleeves were suddenly pulled, and he looked at Qi Fei with doubts in his eyes.
Qi Fei pointed to a golden koi swimming happily in the pool outside the pavilion, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "It's very similar to A Yu."
Yu Wei looked along his fingers, couldn't help the black line on his forehead, glared at him, then pointed to somewhere in the pool, "You are like them! Especially the one that is too clumsy to swim is the most like you!"
Qi Fei glanced at it for a moment, then said with a smile: "Well, like me."
Yu Wei: "..."
"Cough cough."
Yu Wei quickly turned his head and asked, "Brother, when did you catch the cold?"
When he asked this, Yu Tang coughed even harder, "Ahem——"
Seeing that he was coughing so badly, Yu Tang's wife hurriedly stood up to help pat his back.
Yu Tang paused for a while, said to his wife 'I'm fine', then pointed to the gold and silver koi in the pond, "Do you know that these two koi are marriage fish bestowed by the emperor, and they are also That is to say, they are spouses, and the emperor specially raises them to see if they can produce new species."
Yu Wei: "..."
Yu Tang looked at Qi Fei with deep meaning in his eyes, "You and Ah Wei can easily point out a couple who seem to be destined for them."
Just "pointing out the country" can point out that the behavior of a couple is very embarrassing, and there is a touch of unnaturalness on their faces.
Qi Fei raised his eyes and looked at Yu Tang, and said seriously: "Big brother said that I have a great destiny with that golden koi."
"The empress is here—"
"His Royal Highness is here—"
"The sixth princess is here—"
Yu Tang in the pavilion was startled, instead of waiting for the emperor and concubine Luo to come, the lord of the harem and the people from the East Palace came first, and his thoughts changed involuntarily.
Yu Tang led everyone out of the pavilion to salute, "I have met the Empress, Your Royal Highness, the Princess."
"Exemption."
Yu Wei and his group stood on one side with their heads bowed.
The queen stroked the brightly blooming flowers beside her with her fingers, and asked leisurely: "I heard from the crown prince that the flowers in the imperial garden are blooming well today, so I came to have a look. Why is Master Yu also in the imperial garden?"
Yu Tang bowed and replied: "Go back to your mother, I have ordered you to wait here for the emperor and my concubine."
Hearing Concubine Luo, the Queen's eyes flashed with disgust, and she ruthlessly pinched the flower stem with her fingertips, "I heard that in your Yu family, Concubine Luo has a younger brother besides your elder brother."
Yu Tang nodded in agreement.
The queen's eyes fell behind him, "I heard that Concubine Luo hasn't seen him for several years, but the emperor specially ordered Concubine Luo to meet him today. I don't know which of the two young men behind you belongs to Concubine Luo Brother? Lift up your face and let me see
