A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

"Xu Jingzong?" Cen Wenwen nodded, "I've heard of you. You are now the editor of the No. [-] Academy in the Tang Dynasty, and you were one of the Eighteen Scholars of His Majesty Qin's Palace a long time ago. You are somewhat famous."

"I hope you can give me more advice." Xu Jingzong put on a smiling face.

With the sound of a gong, the Chang'an imperial examination was about to officially begin. Students from all over the country came to register with their guides and seals of recommenders. Students don't need to be registered, they have already been registered in the academy and sent to the examination room this time.

Xu Jingzong immediately threw himself into the busy preparations for the imperial examination. Looking at the roster, he saw several familiar names at a glance, Shangguanyi, Pei Xingjian...

The first day of the imperial examination was just to register the name, and the examination room would issue the number plate, and students could take the number plate to take the exam tomorrow. Xu Jingzong here is very diligent and rushes to do everything, expressing himself vigorously.

The names of the students are still being registered. When Fang Xuanling came here, he saw the busy Xu Jingzong and asked, "Are you Xu Jingzong?"

"I've seen the Prime Minister." Xu Jingzong saluted repeatedly.

"Do things well." Fang Xuanling said to Xu Jingzong, "You were recommended by Gu Qing. Seeing that you were also an old member of the Qin Palace, remember to do things well and don't go on the wrong path for fame and fortune."

Hearing Fang Xuanling's warning, Xu Jingzong bowed quickly, "I understand."

Fang Xuanling passed by, and Wei Zheng also came. Seeing Xu Jingzong who was smiling, he just took a look and followed Fang Xuanling.

After Di Renjie and Songtsan Gampo finished talking, they returned to their mansion with the situation in Dashi Kingdom that they had written down. Zhang San stepped forward and said, "Young Qing, let's go outside and have a look. Chang'an is here in a few days." There are too many people, shouldn't our Dali Temple also take care of it?"

"Okay." Di Renjie put down his pen and walked, with a team of clerks behind him.

"What did Shaoqing do in the dungeon?" Zhang San asked curiously.

"Why are you asking so many questions?" Di Renjie walked out of Dali Temple.

Zhang San hurriedly followed, "It's the lower officials talking too much."

Zhang San's identity is very vague, knowing that the other party is looking for the bottom line, Di Renjie explained directly, "I just asked Songtsan Gambo about the situation of Dashi. He has been to Dashi, so he should know better than us. I also plan ahead. I hope It's wasted effort."

"The lower official heard that Gu County Marquis also had a bad relationship with Dashi." Zhang San muttered in a low voice.

"It's really not good." Di Renjie walked, "The prince of Dashi died at the hands of our Tang army. This matter will not be good. Moreover, Dashi came to pay homage without any courtesy. They think they are noble, and sooner or later When it stumbled, Dashi went so smoothly, and it has been winning all these years, and Persian Tianzhu didn't dare to provoke Dashi."

"They only have those small countries in their eyes, but they don't know how far my Tang Dynasty has come. With firearms and food, even thousands of troops are nothing but corpses in one place." Zhang San said proudly.

Walking on the streets of Chang'an, Di Renjie looked at the crowds, and saw Pei Xingjian from a distance. This kid seemed to be entangled by someone. When Xiaobu walked forward, he heard voices. It turned out to be a few hooligans The idle man wants Pei Xingjian to lose money.

"I didn't break this pot." Pei Xingjian said.

Di Renjie came with a group of people from Dali Temple, "What's wrong?"

When they saw officials and a few idlers, they immediately bowed and said, "This official, Xiaomin, this is a small business, some pottery business, this kid broke our pottery."

Di Renjie looked back at Pei Xingjian, "Did you break it?"

"No!" Pei Xingjian immediately shook his head in denial.

Di Renjie threw down a piece of silver cake and said, "That's enough."

"The official can't use this much." A few local ruffians said, "It's just a clay pot, a few pennies."

"I didn't buy one." Di Renjie sneered and said to a group of Dali Temple officials behind him, "Smash all the clay pots here!"

Chapter 318 Di Renjie's Playful Way

Di Renjie ordered a group of Dali Temple officials to rush into the small shop and began to smash pots. A few local ruffians looked ugly, looked at Di Renjie, "This official, why did we offend you?"

"This piece of silver cake is enough to buy all the clay pots here, so you can relax when you have nothing to do." Di Renjie said leisurely.

Pei Xingjian looked at Di Renjie, who was about the same age as him. This was the first time he met his senior brother, Gu Qing's first disciple.

"Are you distracting us!?" Several rogue idlers looked at Di Renjie.

"What's the matter?" Di Renjie nodded and looked at the other party.

"Let's go!" The leader of the rogue idlers left here, leaving behind a broken and messy place.

"Thank you." Pei Xingjian said to Di Renjie.

"You're welcome." Di Renjie also said with a smile, "Be careful in everything, the imperial examination is the most important thing, so don't make any mistakes."

"I understand." Pei Xingjian nodded and said.

Di Renjie smiled meaningfully, "There is a pen shop in Dongshi, and the pens there are very good."

Hearing this, Pei Xingjian nodded with flickering eyes.

Half an hour later, Pei Xingjian came to this pen studio in Dongshi. The relatively lively Dongshi is very deserted here, and there are few customers to buy things. He walked into the quiet pen studio. Why did Di Renjie say this pen studio? .

"Does this guest officer read the pen?" The shopkeeper stepped forward and said with a smile.

Pei Xingjian picked up a brush and looked at it, "Let me take a look first."

"Hey!" the guy nodded and stood aside.

"You don't seem to have many guests here, can you maintain your livelihood?" Pei Xingjian looked at the pen studio.

The clerk smiled and replied, "This is the shopkeeper's business, the little one is just a handyman."

While talking, he heard footsteps coming from the upstairs of Pen Studio, Pei Xingjian looked up strangely.

"The above is our shopkeeper's." The guy explained with a smile, his eyes became wary.

Pei Xingjian put down the pen in his hand, wondering that the sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, as if someone was going downstairs, until he saw a figure walking out from the hidden corridor, before he could see the person clearly, he heard a voice, "Come up."

Looking at the other person's figure, Pei Xingjian understood the familiar voice in an instant.

The guy also let out a long breath, "Please, my little brother."

Pei Xingjian walked up the stairs of the pen studio, walked out of the dark corridor to the second floor, and then suddenly realized that Di Renjie was sitting here smiling, and a fat monk with big ears was sitting beside him. It was very quiet here, and only the outside world could be heard The sound of drizzle falling.

"Junior brother, sit down." Di Renjie said.

Only then did Pei Xingjian sit down and look at the fat monk beside him strangely.

"You are Mr. Gu's new disciple?" The fat monk looked at Pei Xingjian.

"My servant, Pei Xingjian." Pei Xingjian replied.

The rain slid over the eaves and fell, forming a water curtain in front of the window sill. Di Renjie looked at his junior brother, "Master told me about you, don't be so cautious. Everyone here is the teacher's confidant. I have always followed the teacher."

Pei Xingjian nodded.

"The teacher didn't tell you many things. As a brother, I need to explain to you." Di Renjie continued: "Back then, the teacher established an organization composed of rangers in this place where dragons and snakes mixed together in Chang'an, which is now the Green Gang. We His eyeliner is everywhere in Chang’an, if you have anything in the future, you can come to Bizhai and talk to this monk.”

"Brother understands." Pei Xingjian nodded and said, "Brother, there is one more thing I don't understand."
