Rebirth of the First General
Chapter 38
The teenagers from these military commanders' families had a lot of anger in their hearts, and they just waited for someone to stand out in the military humanities test to earn some face.
The words that Gu Ye said in the court were also spread out. When everyone was angry, they occasionally thought of Gu Ye's stupid son who blurted out, and they couldn't be happier; The reasons for this are not much better.
Gu Jiayi patted him, and glanced at him with a smile: "It must be better than you."
Tang Kai blushed from being laughed at, and said unconvinced: "All right, all right, when your article is posted, I will ask someone to taste it and see if I can be a scholar next year."
***
In just a few months, Bei Yuanchen still couldn't hide his innocence, but Bei Yuanfei had already changed a lot.
Lin Bin looked at her appreciatively, but she just lowered her head and said nothing as if her mouth was on an iron bolt.
Bei Yuanchen was a bit taller, and took half a step forward to block Lin Bin's sight, "Prince, we came from a long way, and the clansmen are exhausted and need to be resettled."
Lin Bin smiled and nodded, his superficial gentleness couldn't hide his contempt, but just for the sake of his reputation, he still said: "I'll arrange for the officials in the post house, and let them settle the guests from afar early, the prince and Rest, princess."
When Lin Bin's back disappeared at the gate of the courtyard, Bei Yuanchen spat on the ground in a "yucky" manner. He was good-looking, and even his rude gestures gave off a sense of frankness.
It was rare for Bei Yuanfei to have the feeling of being a sister, and poked his angry face.
"Why are you angry with that kind of person? You still wait to ask Lin Yu to intercede and ask him to give you more benefits."
Bei Yuanchen said: "Lin Yu is still the crown prince, and his father is on top, so he can't control the matter. I heard that the little boy just liked his father even more. At first glance, he doesn't seem to be capable. He must be fatuous and incompetent!"
He sat down angrily, looked at the disappointing Bei Yuanfei and said, "I said, what are you doing here, planting flowers in the royal court and riding horses, how nice it would be to find a man to marry."
Bei Yuanfei took off her veil, and smiled sweetly on her red lips: "Get married! Look at how lively the street is outside."
Bei Yuanchen stared at her blankly, after all, he didn't say that the bustle on the street was watching our bustle.
☆、Chapter 63
After the martial arts test was over, Gu Jiayi was no longer grounded. It seemed that he was an adult and could be responsible for his own actions after getting the honor.In fact, such standards may not be correct, but for Tang You, Gu Jiayi is already very powerful. In the future, he will have the ability to settle down and establish a family, and there will be relatives on both sides by his side, so he will not be bullied.Seeing it, the only thing left is to get married, marry a wife and have children.
Naturally, Tang You and other friends went to watch the sensational scene where the northern barbarian envoys passed through the gate of the capital.After returning to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, she said to Gu Jiayi with emotion: "That girl is so beautiful today! She is walking outside on a horse, she is graceful."
"It's okay, her brother looks better." Bei Yuanqi's pair of green pupils really set off his appearance a bit better than Bei Yuanfei.
Tang You stared, "Have you ever seen another brother?"
"I've seen it." Gu Jiayi didn't hide his words, and said frankly: "The Heshu of the Northern Man came because we broke into the Northern Man's court and killed the Northern Man's king. The eldest cousin is leading the army." The generals who went with me, and those soldiers who went with me, I went too."
These things are really strange. Tang You was stunned for a moment, looked at Gu Jiayi and said, "It's so dangerous to go to other people's lairs, but luckily you all didn't have any accidents. I said that it was strange that Beiman came here suddenly, and he still There's that pretty princess, I'm afraid she's here to make a kiss." As she spoke, she looked at Gu Jiayi with strange and inquisitive eyes: "Brother Guan, don't you fall in love with that northern barbarian man? Mom still thinks we're older Hello Chu people..."
Gu Jiayi took a sip of tea, "Aniang, it's nothing. That princess's brother is now the new Northern Barbarian King. How could I have the ability to hook people up?"
Tang You glanced at Gu Jiayi, "You're worthless, what's wrong with the Northern Man King? What's wrong with you, you have a handsome appearance and a good temper. You can also be civilized and martial. But I don't want a Northern Man's daughter-in-law."
Due to the previous grounding, Gu Jiayi spent a lot of time at home. After working hard day by day, Tang You's acceptance of his many male and female wives is obviously already very high.In private, I still think about which family's son-in-law, if he also likes men, will ask him to be his daughter-in-law.However, just thinking about it, Tang You dare not touch Gu Ye's tiger whiskers.
When Gu Jiayi played the script at the beginning, he guessed Tang You's transformation all the way to the final acceptance.It is said that the one who knows the son best is the mother, but a son is actually extremely sensitive to the thoughts of his parents.Tang You's temperament is romantic, and she has too many shortcomings. She is unreasonable, she doesn't understand many principles, and she protects her shortcomings.She has too many shortcomings, but her deep love cannot be denied, and she only wants Gu Jiayi to be happy.
Tang You looked dissatisfied, but Gu Jiayi liked to tease her: "If he doesn't want to, why do he insist on marrying your son?"
Tang You looked at him with a smile, and said bluntly: "Is it just you who are so big and so rough?"
Gu Jiayi's face was black and red, and he reminded her: "You have a handsome appearance and a good temper, are you capable of writing and martial arts?"
The nurse at the door coughed, and when Gu Ye came in, he saw his wife and son staring at each other, and asked them, "What's the matter? Chiayi, your face is so red?"
Tang You pulled his sleeve and complained: "Brother Guan thinks he looks good? You were just praising yourself for your good looks."
Gu Ye looked at Gu Jiayi's face and saw that there was still a trace of red on his face, so he knew that it was Tang You who bullied him, and comforted him: "It's considered handsome, daddy will take you to see him at the banquet tonight." To see people."
It's really urgent to meet people.As a native of Kyoto, he couldn't recognize many officials when he went out, even Gu Jiayi, a junior from Gu Ye's friend's family, couldn't recognize many.After the martial arts test, it was the beginning of Gu Jiayi's entry into the court as an official, and he had to start thinking about his connections.
***
The night wind blows the branches and leaves of the trees, and Gu Jiayi follows Gu Ye, following the curved bright lights.When you get to the sound of people, you can see a silver river belt against the lights by the river, separating men and women on both sides of the river.
On the other side of the bank, there is still a red gauze that stretches for half a mile, so that people here can hear the woman laughing and talking, but can only see the hazy shadow.
What an extravagant scene, Gu Ye frowned in the dark, and walked out of the shadow of the bush with a gentle smile.
Gu Jiayi took a cursory look and began to speculate how much money was spent on the dinner. Obviously, the mountain people in the south of the Yangtze River rioted, but they just ordered a useless fourth-rank general to check.
That day in the southern mountain village in the south of the Yangtze River, it was said that generals slaughtered civil officials, but Gu Jiayi knew from the memory of his previous life that it was just an arbitrary reason, only one of the generals was captured.
Gu Ye stopped in front of Mingshen, and greeted Gu Jiayi, "Come on, Chiayi, I met you, Uncle Ming. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can ask Mr. Zuoxiang for help."
Gu Jiayi had a smile on his face and in his heart, he thought his father was calm, but he still had a pimple in his heart.
He smiled politely at Mingshen: "Hello, Uncle Ming."
Mingshen and Gu Ye looked at each other, pulled the jade ornaments around his waist and stuffed them into Gu Jiayi's hands, "Good nephew, take it well, there are some things your father really can't do, you can ask me for help."
Gu Ye still had a gentle smile on his face, and he could even see a bit of happiness.
"This is no ordinary jade. Thank you, Uncle Ming."
Gu Jiayi poked Gu Ye's waist from behind to make him restrain himself.
At this time, the dimly lit lantern in front was lit, and Lin Yuanwu in bright yellow clothes took the seat amidst the announcement from the eunuch.
Behind him are the younger generation Lin Jue and Lin Bin, and Bei Yuanchen from the northern barbarians.
Gu Ye took Gu Jiayi to the place arranged in front, Ming Shen took a step behind and sat opposite Gu Ye, with a condensed expression, as if he was provoked by someone again for some reason.
As the royal family, they always receive more preferential treatment than their courtiers. Lin Jue and Lin Bin sat in the first row, and Bei Yuanchen and Qin Taishi sat in the second row.
Mingshen inadvertently looked at Bei Yuanchen's eyebrows and eyes, and gently swirled the porcelain white wine glass in his hand.
"How does the little prince's brother treat you?"
Bei Yuanchen memorized Mingshen's portrait, but was surprised by Mingshen's question, and replied in a daze: "My brother treats me very well."
The colorful costumes of the Beiman royal family made Bei Yuanchen less heroic, and the profile of his face fell into Mingshen's eyes, like an old friend's dream.
The wine and meat were fragrant, and the dancers danced to the music in the middle. There was no need to adjust the atmosphere. With one movement of Lin Yuanwu, all the ministers were in harmony with each other, looking extremely skilled.
It was the first time for Gu Jiayi to participate in such a dinner party, and he ate every bite of the dishes, waiting for the main event tonight.
Not long after, there was a beautiful female voice on the other end of the red yarn, winding into a song.Looking up, there is a pretty woman standing with a clear and handsome back.
The officials here were all in a daze for a moment before they wondered who the woman opposite was?
Lin Yuanwu looked at Bei Yuanchen and said with a smile, "Princess really has a good singing voice!"
Bei Yuanchen raised his glass to his superior and drank it down in one gulp.
Gu Jiayi looked up to look behind Lin Yu, Jiang Wan, who was dressed as a bodyguard, lowered his head, his expression was unclear, as if his soul was gone.
After drinking for three rounds, Lin Yuanwu played the main event.The imperial edicts were issued one after another.From Lin Bin who greeted the envoys, to Tang Ji, Gu Jiayi and Dingbei Army who led the troops out.Then came the imperial concubine's will and a lot of rewards for Bei Yuanchen.
Gu Jiayi stepped forward to receive the imperial decree instead of Tang Ji and others, bowing down and waiting for the reward to Lin Xuan.
3000 taels of gold, countless treasures and medicinal materials, and the will of the world to seek medical treatment.
Lin Yu's face was pale, and he looked extremely indifferent.Why did he need to explain, everyone present knew that he took down the Northern Man, and neither the official history nor the unofficial history would bury the facts.Lin Yuanwu is just deceiving himself and others!
Drunken officials were helped into carriages by eunuchs in the palace or their own servants.Qin Taishi looked slightly drunk, but Qin Wei hadn't even touched a drop of alcohol, and his expression was calm.Grand Master Qin leaned half on Qin Wei's shoulder, looking at him with satisfaction.
"It's good to be calm like this!"
***
In the Weirui Palace, Concubine Qin was lying on the couch with a reddish complexion, her hair was slightly damp on her forehead, Lin Bin stood by her side, her concern was palpable.
Lin Yuanwu heaved a sigh of relief, stepped forward and squeezed a tender hand, and said in his mouth: "Bin'er did the right thing, why are you not feeling well and keeping it from me?"
Although his tone was slightly reproachful, the meaning of concern couldn't be more obvious. Concubine Qin tried her best to smile, and Lin Yuanwu immediately moved him into his arms.He waved to Lin Bin and said, "Bin'er go down first, you can rest in the side hall tonight."
After Lin Bin left, Concubine Qin didn't speak, but rubbed against Lin Yuanwu's chest uncomfortably.
Lin Yuanwu pinched the tip of her small nose, "I'm just going to have a look, I'm sure I won't be back at night."
Concubine Qin's face blushed, but she didn't believe it in her heart, if she could come back, why would her brother and son make her so petty.But she also cared about Lin Yuanwu in her heart, and knew how to coax Lin Yuanwu.The voice trembled: "I'm afraid."
Lin Yuanwu smiled and hugged her tightly.Compared with those women who seem to be omnipotent, many men prefer those weak women, Lin Yuanwu even more.It seems that the self-confidence and arrogance he lost are all to blame on Jiang Qing, and the woman who is weak in his arms and who loses his favor is like losing everything, can give him the greatest sense of accomplishment.
In the new palace, the hostess slept until dawn alone.The maid brought over from Beiman asked Bei Yuanfei in a low voice: "Princess, it's time to greet the queen."
Bei Yuanfei still had a small reddish-brown horsewhip around her waist, she supported the golden fork on her head, "Let's go."
Jiang Qing looked at Lin Yu who had come running early, and agreed to his friendship with Bei Yuanfei.Ask him: "Isn't it safer for you to receive it in your own palace? I don't think the tall man yesterday is narrow-minded."
The tall ones are what Jiang Qing and Gu Jiayi call them, and last night they could only see their figures through the red gauze.
Gu Jiayi's appearance flashed through Lin Yu's mind, and he explained to Jiang Qing: "Jiang Wan felt even more uncomfortable when I took him in. Chiayi, on the other hand, is tall and strong, so he is a little worried."
☆、Chapter 64
Overnight, the news from the dinner party blew through the streets and alleys like a spring breeze. Everyone was discussing the peerless appearance of the emperor's new concubine, as if they had seen it before.At the same time, the red fabrics in Kyoto were selling like crazy, which made many shopkeepers of cloth shops very happy.
The Dingbei Army's victory over the Northern Man was also mentioned. Tang Ji became the glory of Dingguo's government, and the Dingbei Army was once again covered with sacred glory.The only thing that makes people berate is Gu Jiayi, who has not shown his face before and is considered by everyone to be a drag on Gu Ye's reputation.Almost everyone is laughing at a person who has only practiced martial arts for a few months?Where can it be so great?
This September is destined to be lively, and within two days it will be the day of the list.
Loud gongs and drums are heard from the streets to the alleys, the doors of every house are open, and the people of each inn are even more excited. The shopkeepers have prepared enough firecrackers and seal silver.
The martial arts test list came out first, and Gu Jiayi's name was impressively at the top, shocking the onlookers.
Their shock was justified.First, Gu Jiayi has only practiced martial arts for a few months, others have been practicing martial arts for many years, how could he get the first place; secondly, Gu Jiayi has failed three times in the spring test, so he is not a smart person at first glance, and he has been taught by Gu Ye Still at this level, you can be regarded as stupid; the words of the three officials and the civil servants are still in your ears, even if everyone does not believe that Gu Ye will do something that violates the faith, they may not be able to match the heart of the beloved son!
A person who is usually very good, no matter how amazing he does, others who are used to his excellence will feel accustomed to him; while ordinary people, it seems that you are not normal if you are a little bit outstanding.This rhetoric is extreme, but when people look at things, they always have the problem of following the trend on the surface.
Only those who have seen the truth with their own eyes know that those unbelievable things are so real.
On the street at dusk, in an old tavern.Many men were shirtless, unaware of the cold in late autumn, and the smell of alcohol on the thick wooden table was pungent.
One of the black-faced strong men looked younger and tender, his face was flushed, and he looked as if he had drunk too much. If Gu Jiayi was present, he would definitely recognize this simple man with great strength.
He is a disciple of an escort agency, and it was only by chance that he took part in the martial arts test. This luck won the ranking, and he was congratulated by the brothers in the agency.He has great strength and a good weapon. He thought that he would be eliminated only because of his articles and his level of literacy. Who knew that the character of dog crawling was also put on the tail, so he was not screened out.
The owner of the tavern was summoned and ordered two jars of wine and ten catties of meat. The smiling owner seemed to see the money in the bag, and brought up the jar of wine, and said in a pleasant way: "But which strong man won the Wujin prize this year?" Shi? The shop is small and the profit is thin, and I will give you a few snacks with wine!"
Xiao Hei blushed, and the person next to him pointed at him and told the shopkeeper that it was this kid.
The storekeeper remembered the recent lively events and asked curiously: "I heard that this year's Wu Zhuang Scholar is very powerful, I wonder if it is true or not?"
It's okay not to mention this, but the little black face doesn't understand why Gu Jiayi has always been targeted. He himself was not a good person in his early years, and he lived better only by relying on his brute force and talent in weapons in recent years to be discovered by his master.Immediately the smell of alcohol welled up in my heart, and I had seen Gu Jiayi's several competitions, and slapped the table and said loudly: "You are asking the wrong question! Is it fake if you are very good! Not to mention that the top champion in the gangster was also attacked by surprise, Kick him back and kick him off the stage; it's five fights, which one is easy to deal with, I have such strength!"
He slapped the table next to him vigorously, and the three-finger-thick solid table board was torn apart, which frightened a few passers-by, and everyone in the store looked at him.
"It didn't last until the third match! We fought against Zhuangyuan Lang!"
"The big sword I used in that battle, Dao Saburo from the Prestige Escort Bureau, the sword in my hand is not easy to block." The wine was separated, but no one spoke.Most of the taverns are pedestrians, and most of them are curious, and they are also looking forward to the following.
"Surely you can't guess what weapon that Gu chose?" the little black face laughed excitedly, and drank a bowl of wine.
"He actually chose an iron rod. Except for the power at both ends of the iron rod, it is not an advantage compared to a knife. I had a good time chopping at the beginning, and the iron rod was also chipped by me. At that time, I only thought that this man was powerful. Withstood so many knives by me, who knew he was a cunning guy! The iron rod was chosen on purpose!"
"Don't stop! Keep talking!"
Another group of people sat in the store, concentrating on the gods as if they were waiting for a storyteller to tell a story.Little Hei's face turned red, so he had to take another sip of wine to strengthen his courage.
"I ventured in and showed a little flaw. In the blink of an eye, he knocked away my knife-holding hand, and the iron rod turned his hand in an instant, and pointed straight at my neck. Looking at his red eyes, I knew that he must be someone who had seen blood. Sensen's murderous aura makes my neck ache."
The shopkeeper's daughter-in-law came out from behind and squeezed beside the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper ate a lot of the small dishes on the table.
"The next round was even more of a sword versus a sword. It can be seen that I can let him use a stick, which also shows that I am not weak. The one who uses the sword is not as brave as him, and he showed his disadvantage in a few rounds. It should be expected to lose in the end. In the last match, only Zhuangyuan Lang and another brother were left. Both of them were soaked in clothes, and I was also sweating a lot at the time. I just felt that this competition was too fucking tiring, and you must not be lazy, if you are lazy, you will lose. "
The little black face also seemed to be getting better and better, and he still had time to sneak a glance at the junior sister at the same table, seeing that she was only staring at him, and continued: "Only talking about the last scene, Zhuangyuan Lang, with two arms on his arm One of the big mouths was drawn by me. Seeing that his face was a bit more tired than the other brother, and after hearing about his age, I realized that his physical strength was not as strong as ours. You all said Idiots who can't pass the exam as a scholar, how many people in the world have been awarded a scholar, and those who fail are all idiots? Are you?"
A passer-by laughed and said, "You're an idiot, there are rough people here! You're a fart scholar!"
The little black face glared at the man, "I am also a Wu Jinshi stupid, you are not as good as me, so figure out how stupid you are. Don't interrupt me. When it comes to the last scene, I used to delay time and fight hard , whoever stands at the end wins, and Zhuangyuan Lang knew that he was not as strong as others, so he resorted to other methods. As for that method, I will not charge for drinking today, so I will tell you."
The shopkeeper watched anxiously, "If you don't take it, you won't take it! Just remember the meat money!"
These days, wine is not as expensive as meat, but the little black face is quite satisfied. He loosened his clothes and continued: "This starts with you saying that he pretended to be a military leader. His aura doesn't look like he hasn't killed anyone before." , holding a big knife at the moment, slashing with a knife, like cutting melons, not to mention the crisis situation where he will lose if he exhausts all his strength, I am also convinced by the sturdy few knives. In the army Those who have killed people are better than those who practiced their tricks at home. Just like those gentlemen who are well-read, many people are not as good as the accountants under their hands. How many famous cleaners have there been in history! You haven’t seen it Sometimes, others may almost lose their heads! Wen Wu is the first, and Wu Wu is the second. We fought each game, and the examiner is the general of the city guard army. He often goes to the city gate, just ask!"
The little black face was frank and credible, his face was slightly flushed, as if he was extremely excited.After drinking, everyone was about to leave, and the store was going to collect money for the meat. His wife grabbed his ears.
"This is a loyal Wu Jinshi, so what if you give him a few catties of meat!"
The shopkeeper covered his ears, "You mother-in-law, it's because you look young and strong!"
The middle-aged woman put her hands on her hips and said, "The number one scholar is still so handsome! Why don't you have that ability, and you can talk nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense, it's not all others say. I'll tell others tomorrow that it's true, show off!"
*****
There is a tavern at the intersection of the streets, and not far in is the inn where the group of Weifeng Escorts temporarily stay.
The little black face entered his room and closed the door carefully.
Gu Jiayi, who was dressed in plain sackcloth, cupped his fists at him, "Thank you, brother, for speaking out!"
The little black face bulged and looked at him, "Why did you come here? If you were found out, you wouldn't want to go out of your way."
"You're not telling lies, what are you afraid of?" Gu Jiayi threw a plain purse to the little black face. "It's a congratulatory gift. When my brother marries a wife, you have to invite me to have a glass of water and wine."
The little black face weighed heavily, and there was a little redness on his face, but in order to make life easier for the junior sister, he still accepted the purse.Asked: "Why did you attract so many people's eyes? I don't think you are the top scholar in the current science and literature. And when will you play a few more games with me? You were too ruthless before, and your teeth were almost smashed." You kill both."
Gu Jiayi's back hurt, and he shied away: "Sometimes another day, my back still hurts? How could you have played lightly. Besides, if the groom lacks a front tooth, it would be very ugly."
The little black face touched his upper lip, and pushed Gu Jiayi, who was smiling playfully, out, "Hurry up, hurry up, I have never seen such a disgraceful number one scholar like you, and your words are not as good as my little Jinshi."
The inn at the end of the street is located in a remote place, and there are few pedestrians. Gu Jiayi ran around in the alley, but disappeared.
On the same day, quite a few people from the same martial arts test stood up and spoke to Gu Jiayi.Different from the hard-to-determine number one in the literati, the number one in the martial arts test is too obvious. Even if there is an element of luck, Gu Jiayi's own ability cannot be disputed.And the rhetoric of battlefield sharpening from the little black face has also been recognized by many people.
Some people even ran to the gate of the city, waiting for the generals to come out for inspection, arresting and questioning one by one based on their identities.
Duan Duo was sitting on Duan Wen's shoulders, and the father and son were in a group of brocade-clothed sons, and they were quite harmonious.Seeing an honest officer on duty being helplessly questioned, Duan Wen smiled while wiping Duan Duo's saliva.
"Duan Duo, stop drooling!" Duan Wen poked Duan Duo's ass.
A young man in fine clothes teased Duan Duo with a smile, "Duoduo, come and pee one."
Duan Wen kicked him, and the shaking made Duan Duo giggle.
"Ask clearly. They say that my little brother is not on the same level as you, so don't ruin his reputation. Are you leaving? Duan Duo wants to go back and eat shit."
The young man murmured in the back: "During this period of warmth, I really changed my temper after making a reliable friend. I think that Zhuangyuan Lang is indeed a good person."
☆、Chapter 65
The number one scholar's red robe sent by the Ministry of Rites didn't fit very well. Tang You stayed up all night, and when it was slightly dawn, he excitedly went to ask Gu Jiayi to try it.
Tang You's eyes, which hadn't slept all night, were wet and hazy from yawning.Gu Jiayi said to Tang You while putting on his outer clothes: "Mother, when we go out, remember to sleep."
Tang You was so excited, "I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep in the morning, so I'll just take a nap in the afternoon. I heard that the palace will bestow officials today, so don't leave the capital too far."
Gu Jiayi came out from behind the screen. The scarlet robe was tight-fitting, with a ribbon around the waist, embroidered with delicate carp patterns, and his tall and straight body was even more vigorous.
Tang You stared blankly for a while, her eyes were slightly red, and she said repeatedly: "It looks good, my son is handsome."
Broad and somewhat rough hands rubbed against her face, wiping away the teardrops that accidentally appeared, Gu Jiayi pinched her face and said, "Why are you crying, this is a good day. Wait a minute Dad saw it, and said that I bullied you again."
Tang You glared at him, and pulled Gu Jiayi around in a circle. Seeing that the shoulders, waist, and back all fit perfectly, she felt relieved. "Go and see your horse. The Ministry of Rites is really getting more and more stingy, the clothes don't fit, and you need your own horse when you walk around the street."
"My father is in charge of the Ministry of Rites. I've been busy with Beiman recently. Just wait until someone leaves." Gu Jiayi took off his No. [-] scholar uniform, put on his usual outer clothes, and went out to have breakfast with Tang You.
***
A hundred or ten young people are all dressed in gorgeous new clothes, their hair is neatly tied into crowns, and they feel full of vigor just by looking at them from a distance.
These young people were only divided into two teams. Gu Jiayi stood at the front of the first team and couldn't help but move his neck.
The person behind him said with a smile: "I'm not used to tying my hair. I also felt that my skin was always pulled at the beginning. I don't like tying my hair very much on weekdays."
Gu Jiayi turned around and smiled, and nodded politely, revealing a broad and full forehead and a well-defined side face, in a handsome man with a calmness beyond the surface.
The little eunuch in front of the hall stretched out his thin voice, "Xuan Xinke Jinshi has an audience!"
The group of people lowered their heads and followed the steps that the eunuch in charge seemed to have measured into the hall.The palace where Lin Yuanwu met these new scholars was not the Zhengyang Palace that usually went to court, but a newly built palace.The carved beams and painted buildings in the hall are resplendent and resplendent, and you can see the golden light even if you lower your head.
As if intimidated by this momentum, the hall was silent and breathing could be heard.
Gu Jiayi, who lowered his head, saw a piece of light yellow cloth out of the corner of his eye, and his heart settled down.I thought about whether I should ask Ah Cheng for a congratulatory gift, what kind of reward should I ask for.
Lin Yuanwu let the crowd hang out for a while, then put his feet up and said, "Get up."
After the words fell, Gu Jiayi got up, stood up straight, and listened to Lin Yuanwu's high-sounding words, to praise this year's Xinke Scholars.
On the main hall, apart from these young people and the eunuchs and maids serving them, there were only four people standing in the front row: the crown prince, the first prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince.As far as they could see, many people wondered why there was no one in their teacher's seat.
Lin Yuanwu seemed to be in a good mood, he smiled and said to the little eunuch Hou on the side of the dragon chair: "Go and see the left minister, the right minister, and the grand master, are they all right?"
After asking, Lin Yuanwu turned around and said to the young people below: "The officials in the court have a lot of discussions about this year's examination papers, and now that the results of the palace examination have come out, I have invited several adults to look at your examination papers. For this work, I will naturally be biased in my official position."
As soon as these words came out, the people below all looked different, some looked excited, and some looked bitter.
The palms of the little black face were sweaty, and the red Jinshi uniform didn't show off his aura, he only remembered his words "climbing".There are several Wu Jinshi who are like this, but there are quite a few literati who are excited, and their eyes are full of eagerness.
It was rare for Gu Jiayi to feel a little bit worried, and couldn't help but look at Lin Yu's side face, thinking that he had been taught by both Father and Lin Yu, so it shouldn't be too bad.Even though he comforted himself like this, the sudden quickening of his heartbeat let him know that he was a little bit afraid.That fear comes from many failures, from many frustrations, from wasted youth.
Soon, the little eunuch who went to call someone came back quickly, followed by Ming Shen and others, and the guards in palace costumes holding wooden boxes.
Mingshen stepped forward calmly, bowed to Lin Yuanwu, and then said: "The examination papers have been screened, and there is no injustice. The officials who graded the papers have done their best this time, and the Holy One will reward them."
Lin Yuanwu looked at the wooden box held by the guard, and said happily, "Is it the most outstanding article this year? Submit it for me to see."
There were only a dozen copies of the articles in the wooden box, and there were more than a hundred Jinshi present, counting civil and military personnel.The total number of examination papers is more than 100, and a dozen or so are selected from a hundred miles, and the ratio is ten to one.The Wen Jinshi who came out of the autumn examination all clenched their hands, hoping that they could be among them.
Gu Jiayi let go of his worries, his share was actually the first one.
If someone else changed, they might not be able to see who it was, and they might not be able to see what was in the wooden box.But Gu Jiayi was tall on the one hand, and sharp-eyed on the other, at a glance, he saw his share, and the unique handwriting made him not mistaken for his share.
Suppressing the joy in her heart, Gu Jia lowered her eyes to hide the triumphant look in her eyes.It's no wonder he had too many surprises.
Right now the examination paper has been unpacked, so the name can be seen. Seeing Gu Jiayi's name, Lin Yuanwu paused before picking it up for a closer look.
He finished it quickly, took a look at Gu Jiayi, and then at Lin Zhen.Then move on to the next one.
The hall was filled with the sound of paper rubbing, and when Lin Yuanwu raised his head, the legs of the number one scholar in liberal arts were numb.
Lin Yuanwu asked slowly: "This first one, doesn't it seem like the second one?"
Mingshen smiled slightly: "This first one is the first one among Wu Jinshi, and it's the only one that is considered the best. I thought that I came out earlier, and I only have one, so I put it at the front. The wise eyes of the sage are like torch."
The literati flattered, with a calm smile on their faces, and their credibility went up.Lin Yuanwu nodded in satisfaction, seeing that Gu Jiayi was not as obtrusive as before.
"It's all insightful articles. I hope that you can apply what you have learned to the common people in the future. As for your whereabouts, except for the military champion being transferred to the East Palace as the commander, the rest will follow the order."
Lin Yuanwu looked at Gu Ye who was behind Ming Shen with a kind smile, and said, "Since Gu Qing's family has a relationship with the crown prince, they might as well get closer."
Lin Yu was looking at Gu Jiayi's examination paper, and when he heard the words, he smiled lightly at the group of Jinshi, dazzled everyone's eyes, and said: "If the younger brother is in the East Palace, I will take care of the sir, so as not to fall into the misfortune of the master." name."
The liberal arts champion suddenly raised his head to look at Gu Jiayi, ground his teeth silently, and agreed with Lin Zhen's words.A disciple of Mr. Jiu Dao, how can he only be a martial artist!
The outside world didn't recognize Gu Jiayi, and Lin Yu naturally knew it. With the help of these sincere young students and Jinshi, it happened to justify Gu Jiayi's name.As for the meaning of Lin Yuanwu's words, Lin Yu only felt that he was getting more and more overwhelmed. Gu Ye could be regarded as the biggest supporter of his stable throne, and he still made such a centrifugal plan!
Mingshen is aloof, who will be the emperor?How are you doing?As long as it doesn't bother him too much.As for Grand Master Qin, he was nothing more than a villain trying to figure out the emperor's will. Only Gu Ye was the orthodox supporter, which was considered reliable.
After the eunuch in charge read the imperial decree, the procedures for the Jinke Scholars were coming to an end.Gu Jiayi and Liberal Arts No. [-] Scholar led the way, leading the No. [-] and Tanhua on both sides, to the gate of the palace, and rode tall horses to the streets.
The people on both sides are crowded together, but because there are too many people, there is no possibility of people flowing, which is a bit safer.
The red official uniform, the young man, the tall horse, and the blessing of fame all made many people very excited, as if they were celebrating for themselves, and also seemed to be happy to see the excitement.
The horse walked very slowly, and a purse with a scent was thrown at Gu Jiayi, he dodged to dodge, only then remembered what it was, so he had no choice but to throw it honestly.
Tang You and Gu Ye, who had left the palace gate, were in the restaurant on one side, looking through the window to see their charming children walking slowly.
***
Three days later, Gu Jiayi, wearing a command uniform, an official hat, and a treasured sword hanging from his waist, stood up for Lin Yu.
Baxi invited him into the study, and Lin Jue was closing a booklet, a little black ink was rubbed on his white hands, and it was smudged on the back of his hands.
When Baxi came in Gu Jiayi, Guajuedi turned around and left, leaving room for the two of them to talk.
Hearing the familiar footsteps, Lin Yu smiled slightly and said, "Come here and pour me tea!"
The teapot in Lin Yu's study room is a small and exquisite purple clay pot. Gu Jiayi touched the body of the pot, and it turned yellow again. He shook the teapot and said helplessly: "There is no more tea, Baxi!"
Baxi moved slowly from the door, and left with the teapot in her hand.
At this time, Lin Yu had already got up, looked at Gu Jiayi's new clothes, and said: "The clothes are very energetic, but it's a pity that you can't ride a horse when you enter the palace?"
Gu Jiayi looked at him ignorantly.
Lin Jue took a step forward, his eyebrows fluttering, and he teased him: "Isn't it going to enter the East Palace with a big head? It's just a horse."
Thinking of this joke, Gu Jiayi dissatisfied: "Are there a lot of people wearing command uniforms?"
"You are the first one I praise."
Gu Jiayi picked up his ink-stained hand, rubbed it with his hand, and watched the black ink set off the tenderness of his heart.Thinking of the congratulatory gift he had talked about, he kissed him quickly.Then, with a strong arm, he hugged the person in his arms.
"Thank you, brother, for your protection yesterday, but is it okay to tell the name of the master? We are about to be expelled from the school."
The wetness on the back of the hand makes people dumbfounded, Lin Yu
The words that Gu Ye said in the court were also spread out. When everyone was angry, they occasionally thought of Gu Ye's stupid son who blurted out, and they couldn't be happier; The reasons for this are not much better.
Gu Jiayi patted him, and glanced at him with a smile: "It must be better than you."
Tang Kai blushed from being laughed at, and said unconvinced: "All right, all right, when your article is posted, I will ask someone to taste it and see if I can be a scholar next year."
***
In just a few months, Bei Yuanchen still couldn't hide his innocence, but Bei Yuanfei had already changed a lot.
Lin Bin looked at her appreciatively, but she just lowered her head and said nothing as if her mouth was on an iron bolt.
Bei Yuanchen was a bit taller, and took half a step forward to block Lin Bin's sight, "Prince, we came from a long way, and the clansmen are exhausted and need to be resettled."
Lin Bin smiled and nodded, his superficial gentleness couldn't hide his contempt, but just for the sake of his reputation, he still said: "I'll arrange for the officials in the post house, and let them settle the guests from afar early, the prince and Rest, princess."
When Lin Bin's back disappeared at the gate of the courtyard, Bei Yuanchen spat on the ground in a "yucky" manner. He was good-looking, and even his rude gestures gave off a sense of frankness.
It was rare for Bei Yuanfei to have the feeling of being a sister, and poked his angry face.
"Why are you angry with that kind of person? You still wait to ask Lin Yu to intercede and ask him to give you more benefits."
Bei Yuanchen said: "Lin Yu is still the crown prince, and his father is on top, so he can't control the matter. I heard that the little boy just liked his father even more. At first glance, he doesn't seem to be capable. He must be fatuous and incompetent!"
He sat down angrily, looked at the disappointing Bei Yuanfei and said, "I said, what are you doing here, planting flowers in the royal court and riding horses, how nice it would be to find a man to marry."
Bei Yuanfei took off her veil, and smiled sweetly on her red lips: "Get married! Look at how lively the street is outside."
Bei Yuanchen stared at her blankly, after all, he didn't say that the bustle on the street was watching our bustle.
☆、Chapter 63
After the martial arts test was over, Gu Jiayi was no longer grounded. It seemed that he was an adult and could be responsible for his own actions after getting the honor.In fact, such standards may not be correct, but for Tang You, Gu Jiayi is already very powerful. In the future, he will have the ability to settle down and establish a family, and there will be relatives on both sides by his side, so he will not be bullied.Seeing it, the only thing left is to get married, marry a wife and have children.
Naturally, Tang You and other friends went to watch the sensational scene where the northern barbarian envoys passed through the gate of the capital.After returning to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, she said to Gu Jiayi with emotion: "That girl is so beautiful today! She is walking outside on a horse, she is graceful."
"It's okay, her brother looks better." Bei Yuanqi's pair of green pupils really set off his appearance a bit better than Bei Yuanfei.
Tang You stared, "Have you ever seen another brother?"
"I've seen it." Gu Jiayi didn't hide his words, and said frankly: "The Heshu of the Northern Man came because we broke into the Northern Man's court and killed the Northern Man's king. The eldest cousin is leading the army." The generals who went with me, and those soldiers who went with me, I went too."
These things are really strange. Tang You was stunned for a moment, looked at Gu Jiayi and said, "It's so dangerous to go to other people's lairs, but luckily you all didn't have any accidents. I said that it was strange that Beiman came here suddenly, and he still There's that pretty princess, I'm afraid she's here to make a kiss." As she spoke, she looked at Gu Jiayi with strange and inquisitive eyes: "Brother Guan, don't you fall in love with that northern barbarian man? Mom still thinks we're older Hello Chu people..."
Gu Jiayi took a sip of tea, "Aniang, it's nothing. That princess's brother is now the new Northern Barbarian King. How could I have the ability to hook people up?"
Tang You glanced at Gu Jiayi, "You're worthless, what's wrong with the Northern Man King? What's wrong with you, you have a handsome appearance and a good temper. You can also be civilized and martial. But I don't want a Northern Man's daughter-in-law."
Due to the previous grounding, Gu Jiayi spent a lot of time at home. After working hard day by day, Tang You's acceptance of his many male and female wives is obviously already very high.In private, I still think about which family's son-in-law, if he also likes men, will ask him to be his daughter-in-law.However, just thinking about it, Tang You dare not touch Gu Ye's tiger whiskers.
When Gu Jiayi played the script at the beginning, he guessed Tang You's transformation all the way to the final acceptance.It is said that the one who knows the son best is the mother, but a son is actually extremely sensitive to the thoughts of his parents.Tang You's temperament is romantic, and she has too many shortcomings. She is unreasonable, she doesn't understand many principles, and she protects her shortcomings.She has too many shortcomings, but her deep love cannot be denied, and she only wants Gu Jiayi to be happy.
Tang You looked dissatisfied, but Gu Jiayi liked to tease her: "If he doesn't want to, why do he insist on marrying your son?"
Tang You looked at him with a smile, and said bluntly: "Is it just you who are so big and so rough?"
Gu Jiayi's face was black and red, and he reminded her: "You have a handsome appearance and a good temper, are you capable of writing and martial arts?"
The nurse at the door coughed, and when Gu Ye came in, he saw his wife and son staring at each other, and asked them, "What's the matter? Chiayi, your face is so red?"
Tang You pulled his sleeve and complained: "Brother Guan thinks he looks good? You were just praising yourself for your good looks."
Gu Ye looked at Gu Jiayi's face and saw that there was still a trace of red on his face, so he knew that it was Tang You who bullied him, and comforted him: "It's considered handsome, daddy will take you to see him at the banquet tonight." To see people."
It's really urgent to meet people.As a native of Kyoto, he couldn't recognize many officials when he went out, even Gu Jiayi, a junior from Gu Ye's friend's family, couldn't recognize many.After the martial arts test, it was the beginning of Gu Jiayi's entry into the court as an official, and he had to start thinking about his connections.
***
The night wind blows the branches and leaves of the trees, and Gu Jiayi follows Gu Ye, following the curved bright lights.When you get to the sound of people, you can see a silver river belt against the lights by the river, separating men and women on both sides of the river.
On the other side of the bank, there is still a red gauze that stretches for half a mile, so that people here can hear the woman laughing and talking, but can only see the hazy shadow.
What an extravagant scene, Gu Ye frowned in the dark, and walked out of the shadow of the bush with a gentle smile.
Gu Jiayi took a cursory look and began to speculate how much money was spent on the dinner. Obviously, the mountain people in the south of the Yangtze River rioted, but they just ordered a useless fourth-rank general to check.
That day in the southern mountain village in the south of the Yangtze River, it was said that generals slaughtered civil officials, but Gu Jiayi knew from the memory of his previous life that it was just an arbitrary reason, only one of the generals was captured.
Gu Ye stopped in front of Mingshen, and greeted Gu Jiayi, "Come on, Chiayi, I met you, Uncle Ming. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can ask Mr. Zuoxiang for help."
Gu Jiayi had a smile on his face and in his heart, he thought his father was calm, but he still had a pimple in his heart.
He smiled politely at Mingshen: "Hello, Uncle Ming."
Mingshen and Gu Ye looked at each other, pulled the jade ornaments around his waist and stuffed them into Gu Jiayi's hands, "Good nephew, take it well, there are some things your father really can't do, you can ask me for help."
Gu Ye still had a gentle smile on his face, and he could even see a bit of happiness.
"This is no ordinary jade. Thank you, Uncle Ming."
Gu Jiayi poked Gu Ye's waist from behind to make him restrain himself.
At this time, the dimly lit lantern in front was lit, and Lin Yuanwu in bright yellow clothes took the seat amidst the announcement from the eunuch.
Behind him are the younger generation Lin Jue and Lin Bin, and Bei Yuanchen from the northern barbarians.
Gu Ye took Gu Jiayi to the place arranged in front, Ming Shen took a step behind and sat opposite Gu Ye, with a condensed expression, as if he was provoked by someone again for some reason.
As the royal family, they always receive more preferential treatment than their courtiers. Lin Jue and Lin Bin sat in the first row, and Bei Yuanchen and Qin Taishi sat in the second row.
Mingshen inadvertently looked at Bei Yuanchen's eyebrows and eyes, and gently swirled the porcelain white wine glass in his hand.
"How does the little prince's brother treat you?"
Bei Yuanchen memorized Mingshen's portrait, but was surprised by Mingshen's question, and replied in a daze: "My brother treats me very well."
The colorful costumes of the Beiman royal family made Bei Yuanchen less heroic, and the profile of his face fell into Mingshen's eyes, like an old friend's dream.
The wine and meat were fragrant, and the dancers danced to the music in the middle. There was no need to adjust the atmosphere. With one movement of Lin Yuanwu, all the ministers were in harmony with each other, looking extremely skilled.
It was the first time for Gu Jiayi to participate in such a dinner party, and he ate every bite of the dishes, waiting for the main event tonight.
Not long after, there was a beautiful female voice on the other end of the red yarn, winding into a song.Looking up, there is a pretty woman standing with a clear and handsome back.
The officials here were all in a daze for a moment before they wondered who the woman opposite was?
Lin Yuanwu looked at Bei Yuanchen and said with a smile, "Princess really has a good singing voice!"
Bei Yuanchen raised his glass to his superior and drank it down in one gulp.
Gu Jiayi looked up to look behind Lin Yu, Jiang Wan, who was dressed as a bodyguard, lowered his head, his expression was unclear, as if his soul was gone.
After drinking for three rounds, Lin Yuanwu played the main event.The imperial edicts were issued one after another.From Lin Bin who greeted the envoys, to Tang Ji, Gu Jiayi and Dingbei Army who led the troops out.Then came the imperial concubine's will and a lot of rewards for Bei Yuanchen.
Gu Jiayi stepped forward to receive the imperial decree instead of Tang Ji and others, bowing down and waiting for the reward to Lin Xuan.
3000 taels of gold, countless treasures and medicinal materials, and the will of the world to seek medical treatment.
Lin Yu's face was pale, and he looked extremely indifferent.Why did he need to explain, everyone present knew that he took down the Northern Man, and neither the official history nor the unofficial history would bury the facts.Lin Yuanwu is just deceiving himself and others!
Drunken officials were helped into carriages by eunuchs in the palace or their own servants.Qin Taishi looked slightly drunk, but Qin Wei hadn't even touched a drop of alcohol, and his expression was calm.Grand Master Qin leaned half on Qin Wei's shoulder, looking at him with satisfaction.
"It's good to be calm like this!"
***
In the Weirui Palace, Concubine Qin was lying on the couch with a reddish complexion, her hair was slightly damp on her forehead, Lin Bin stood by her side, her concern was palpable.
Lin Yuanwu heaved a sigh of relief, stepped forward and squeezed a tender hand, and said in his mouth: "Bin'er did the right thing, why are you not feeling well and keeping it from me?"
Although his tone was slightly reproachful, the meaning of concern couldn't be more obvious. Concubine Qin tried her best to smile, and Lin Yuanwu immediately moved him into his arms.He waved to Lin Bin and said, "Bin'er go down first, you can rest in the side hall tonight."
After Lin Bin left, Concubine Qin didn't speak, but rubbed against Lin Yuanwu's chest uncomfortably.
Lin Yuanwu pinched the tip of her small nose, "I'm just going to have a look, I'm sure I won't be back at night."
Concubine Qin's face blushed, but she didn't believe it in her heart, if she could come back, why would her brother and son make her so petty.But she also cared about Lin Yuanwu in her heart, and knew how to coax Lin Yuanwu.The voice trembled: "I'm afraid."
Lin Yuanwu smiled and hugged her tightly.Compared with those women who seem to be omnipotent, many men prefer those weak women, Lin Yuanwu even more.It seems that the self-confidence and arrogance he lost are all to blame on Jiang Qing, and the woman who is weak in his arms and who loses his favor is like losing everything, can give him the greatest sense of accomplishment.
In the new palace, the hostess slept until dawn alone.The maid brought over from Beiman asked Bei Yuanfei in a low voice: "Princess, it's time to greet the queen."
Bei Yuanfei still had a small reddish-brown horsewhip around her waist, she supported the golden fork on her head, "Let's go."
Jiang Qing looked at Lin Yu who had come running early, and agreed to his friendship with Bei Yuanfei.Ask him: "Isn't it safer for you to receive it in your own palace? I don't think the tall man yesterday is narrow-minded."
The tall ones are what Jiang Qing and Gu Jiayi call them, and last night they could only see their figures through the red gauze.
Gu Jiayi's appearance flashed through Lin Yu's mind, and he explained to Jiang Qing: "Jiang Wan felt even more uncomfortable when I took him in. Chiayi, on the other hand, is tall and strong, so he is a little worried."
☆、Chapter 64
Overnight, the news from the dinner party blew through the streets and alleys like a spring breeze. Everyone was discussing the peerless appearance of the emperor's new concubine, as if they had seen it before.At the same time, the red fabrics in Kyoto were selling like crazy, which made many shopkeepers of cloth shops very happy.
The Dingbei Army's victory over the Northern Man was also mentioned. Tang Ji became the glory of Dingguo's government, and the Dingbei Army was once again covered with sacred glory.The only thing that makes people berate is Gu Jiayi, who has not shown his face before and is considered by everyone to be a drag on Gu Ye's reputation.Almost everyone is laughing at a person who has only practiced martial arts for a few months?Where can it be so great?
This September is destined to be lively, and within two days it will be the day of the list.
Loud gongs and drums are heard from the streets to the alleys, the doors of every house are open, and the people of each inn are even more excited. The shopkeepers have prepared enough firecrackers and seal silver.
The martial arts test list came out first, and Gu Jiayi's name was impressively at the top, shocking the onlookers.
Their shock was justified.First, Gu Jiayi has only practiced martial arts for a few months, others have been practicing martial arts for many years, how could he get the first place; secondly, Gu Jiayi has failed three times in the spring test, so he is not a smart person at first glance, and he has been taught by Gu Ye Still at this level, you can be regarded as stupid; the words of the three officials and the civil servants are still in your ears, even if everyone does not believe that Gu Ye will do something that violates the faith, they may not be able to match the heart of the beloved son!
A person who is usually very good, no matter how amazing he does, others who are used to his excellence will feel accustomed to him; while ordinary people, it seems that you are not normal if you are a little bit outstanding.This rhetoric is extreme, but when people look at things, they always have the problem of following the trend on the surface.
Only those who have seen the truth with their own eyes know that those unbelievable things are so real.
On the street at dusk, in an old tavern.Many men were shirtless, unaware of the cold in late autumn, and the smell of alcohol on the thick wooden table was pungent.
One of the black-faced strong men looked younger and tender, his face was flushed, and he looked as if he had drunk too much. If Gu Jiayi was present, he would definitely recognize this simple man with great strength.
He is a disciple of an escort agency, and it was only by chance that he took part in the martial arts test. This luck won the ranking, and he was congratulated by the brothers in the agency.He has great strength and a good weapon. He thought that he would be eliminated only because of his articles and his level of literacy. Who knew that the character of dog crawling was also put on the tail, so he was not screened out.
The owner of the tavern was summoned and ordered two jars of wine and ten catties of meat. The smiling owner seemed to see the money in the bag, and brought up the jar of wine, and said in a pleasant way: "But which strong man won the Wujin prize this year?" Shi? The shop is small and the profit is thin, and I will give you a few snacks with wine!"
Xiao Hei blushed, and the person next to him pointed at him and told the shopkeeper that it was this kid.
The storekeeper remembered the recent lively events and asked curiously: "I heard that this year's Wu Zhuang Scholar is very powerful, I wonder if it is true or not?"
It's okay not to mention this, but the little black face doesn't understand why Gu Jiayi has always been targeted. He himself was not a good person in his early years, and he lived better only by relying on his brute force and talent in weapons in recent years to be discovered by his master.Immediately the smell of alcohol welled up in my heart, and I had seen Gu Jiayi's several competitions, and slapped the table and said loudly: "You are asking the wrong question! Is it fake if you are very good! Not to mention that the top champion in the gangster was also attacked by surprise, Kick him back and kick him off the stage; it's five fights, which one is easy to deal with, I have such strength!"
He slapped the table next to him vigorously, and the three-finger-thick solid table board was torn apart, which frightened a few passers-by, and everyone in the store looked at him.
"It didn't last until the third match! We fought against Zhuangyuan Lang!"
"The big sword I used in that battle, Dao Saburo from the Prestige Escort Bureau, the sword in my hand is not easy to block." The wine was separated, but no one spoke.Most of the taverns are pedestrians, and most of them are curious, and they are also looking forward to the following.
"Surely you can't guess what weapon that Gu chose?" the little black face laughed excitedly, and drank a bowl of wine.
"He actually chose an iron rod. Except for the power at both ends of the iron rod, it is not an advantage compared to a knife. I had a good time chopping at the beginning, and the iron rod was also chipped by me. At that time, I only thought that this man was powerful. Withstood so many knives by me, who knew he was a cunning guy! The iron rod was chosen on purpose!"
"Don't stop! Keep talking!"
Another group of people sat in the store, concentrating on the gods as if they were waiting for a storyteller to tell a story.Little Hei's face turned red, so he had to take another sip of wine to strengthen his courage.
"I ventured in and showed a little flaw. In the blink of an eye, he knocked away my knife-holding hand, and the iron rod turned his hand in an instant, and pointed straight at my neck. Looking at his red eyes, I knew that he must be someone who had seen blood. Sensen's murderous aura makes my neck ache."
The shopkeeper's daughter-in-law came out from behind and squeezed beside the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper ate a lot of the small dishes on the table.
"The next round was even more of a sword versus a sword. It can be seen that I can let him use a stick, which also shows that I am not weak. The one who uses the sword is not as brave as him, and he showed his disadvantage in a few rounds. It should be expected to lose in the end. In the last match, only Zhuangyuan Lang and another brother were left. Both of them were soaked in clothes, and I was also sweating a lot at the time. I just felt that this competition was too fucking tiring, and you must not be lazy, if you are lazy, you will lose. "
The little black face also seemed to be getting better and better, and he still had time to sneak a glance at the junior sister at the same table, seeing that she was only staring at him, and continued: "Only talking about the last scene, Zhuangyuan Lang, with two arms on his arm One of the big mouths was drawn by me. Seeing that his face was a bit more tired than the other brother, and after hearing about his age, I realized that his physical strength was not as strong as ours. You all said Idiots who can't pass the exam as a scholar, how many people in the world have been awarded a scholar, and those who fail are all idiots? Are you?"
A passer-by laughed and said, "You're an idiot, there are rough people here! You're a fart scholar!"
The little black face glared at the man, "I am also a Wu Jinshi stupid, you are not as good as me, so figure out how stupid you are. Don't interrupt me. When it comes to the last scene, I used to delay time and fight hard , whoever stands at the end wins, and Zhuangyuan Lang knew that he was not as strong as others, so he resorted to other methods. As for that method, I will not charge for drinking today, so I will tell you."
The shopkeeper watched anxiously, "If you don't take it, you won't take it! Just remember the meat money!"
These days, wine is not as expensive as meat, but the little black face is quite satisfied. He loosened his clothes and continued: "This starts with you saying that he pretended to be a military leader. His aura doesn't look like he hasn't killed anyone before." , holding a big knife at the moment, slashing with a knife, like cutting melons, not to mention the crisis situation where he will lose if he exhausts all his strength, I am also convinced by the sturdy few knives. In the army Those who have killed people are better than those who practiced their tricks at home. Just like those gentlemen who are well-read, many people are not as good as the accountants under their hands. How many famous cleaners have there been in history! You haven’t seen it Sometimes, others may almost lose their heads! Wen Wu is the first, and Wu Wu is the second. We fought each game, and the examiner is the general of the city guard army. He often goes to the city gate, just ask!"
The little black face was frank and credible, his face was slightly flushed, as if he was extremely excited.After drinking, everyone was about to leave, and the store was going to collect money for the meat. His wife grabbed his ears.
"This is a loyal Wu Jinshi, so what if you give him a few catties of meat!"
The shopkeeper covered his ears, "You mother-in-law, it's because you look young and strong!"
The middle-aged woman put her hands on her hips and said, "The number one scholar is still so handsome! Why don't you have that ability, and you can talk nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense, it's not all others say. I'll tell others tomorrow that it's true, show off!"
*****
There is a tavern at the intersection of the streets, and not far in is the inn where the group of Weifeng Escorts temporarily stay.
The little black face entered his room and closed the door carefully.
Gu Jiayi, who was dressed in plain sackcloth, cupped his fists at him, "Thank you, brother, for speaking out!"
The little black face bulged and looked at him, "Why did you come here? If you were found out, you wouldn't want to go out of your way."
"You're not telling lies, what are you afraid of?" Gu Jiayi threw a plain purse to the little black face. "It's a congratulatory gift. When my brother marries a wife, you have to invite me to have a glass of water and wine."
The little black face weighed heavily, and there was a little redness on his face, but in order to make life easier for the junior sister, he still accepted the purse.Asked: "Why did you attract so many people's eyes? I don't think you are the top scholar in the current science and literature. And when will you play a few more games with me? You were too ruthless before, and your teeth were almost smashed." You kill both."
Gu Jiayi's back hurt, and he shied away: "Sometimes another day, my back still hurts? How could you have played lightly. Besides, if the groom lacks a front tooth, it would be very ugly."
The little black face touched his upper lip, and pushed Gu Jiayi, who was smiling playfully, out, "Hurry up, hurry up, I have never seen such a disgraceful number one scholar like you, and your words are not as good as my little Jinshi."
The inn at the end of the street is located in a remote place, and there are few pedestrians. Gu Jiayi ran around in the alley, but disappeared.
On the same day, quite a few people from the same martial arts test stood up and spoke to Gu Jiayi.Different from the hard-to-determine number one in the literati, the number one in the martial arts test is too obvious. Even if there is an element of luck, Gu Jiayi's own ability cannot be disputed.And the rhetoric of battlefield sharpening from the little black face has also been recognized by many people.
Some people even ran to the gate of the city, waiting for the generals to come out for inspection, arresting and questioning one by one based on their identities.
Duan Duo was sitting on Duan Wen's shoulders, and the father and son were in a group of brocade-clothed sons, and they were quite harmonious.Seeing an honest officer on duty being helplessly questioned, Duan Wen smiled while wiping Duan Duo's saliva.
"Duan Duo, stop drooling!" Duan Wen poked Duan Duo's ass.
A young man in fine clothes teased Duan Duo with a smile, "Duoduo, come and pee one."
Duan Wen kicked him, and the shaking made Duan Duo giggle.
"Ask clearly. They say that my little brother is not on the same level as you, so don't ruin his reputation. Are you leaving? Duan Duo wants to go back and eat shit."
The young man murmured in the back: "During this period of warmth, I really changed my temper after making a reliable friend. I think that Zhuangyuan Lang is indeed a good person."
☆、Chapter 65
The number one scholar's red robe sent by the Ministry of Rites didn't fit very well. Tang You stayed up all night, and when it was slightly dawn, he excitedly went to ask Gu Jiayi to try it.
Tang You's eyes, which hadn't slept all night, were wet and hazy from yawning.Gu Jiayi said to Tang You while putting on his outer clothes: "Mother, when we go out, remember to sleep."
Tang You was so excited, "I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep in the morning, so I'll just take a nap in the afternoon. I heard that the palace will bestow officials today, so don't leave the capital too far."
Gu Jiayi came out from behind the screen. The scarlet robe was tight-fitting, with a ribbon around the waist, embroidered with delicate carp patterns, and his tall and straight body was even more vigorous.
Tang You stared blankly for a while, her eyes were slightly red, and she said repeatedly: "It looks good, my son is handsome."
Broad and somewhat rough hands rubbed against her face, wiping away the teardrops that accidentally appeared, Gu Jiayi pinched her face and said, "Why are you crying, this is a good day. Wait a minute Dad saw it, and said that I bullied you again."
Tang You glared at him, and pulled Gu Jiayi around in a circle. Seeing that the shoulders, waist, and back all fit perfectly, she felt relieved. "Go and see your horse. The Ministry of Rites is really getting more and more stingy, the clothes don't fit, and you need your own horse when you walk around the street."
"My father is in charge of the Ministry of Rites. I've been busy with Beiman recently. Just wait until someone leaves." Gu Jiayi took off his No. [-] scholar uniform, put on his usual outer clothes, and went out to have breakfast with Tang You.
***
A hundred or ten young people are all dressed in gorgeous new clothes, their hair is neatly tied into crowns, and they feel full of vigor just by looking at them from a distance.
These young people were only divided into two teams. Gu Jiayi stood at the front of the first team and couldn't help but move his neck.
The person behind him said with a smile: "I'm not used to tying my hair. I also felt that my skin was always pulled at the beginning. I don't like tying my hair very much on weekdays."
Gu Jiayi turned around and smiled, and nodded politely, revealing a broad and full forehead and a well-defined side face, in a handsome man with a calmness beyond the surface.
The little eunuch in front of the hall stretched out his thin voice, "Xuan Xinke Jinshi has an audience!"
The group of people lowered their heads and followed the steps that the eunuch in charge seemed to have measured into the hall.The palace where Lin Yuanwu met these new scholars was not the Zhengyang Palace that usually went to court, but a newly built palace.The carved beams and painted buildings in the hall are resplendent and resplendent, and you can see the golden light even if you lower your head.
As if intimidated by this momentum, the hall was silent and breathing could be heard.
Gu Jiayi, who lowered his head, saw a piece of light yellow cloth out of the corner of his eye, and his heart settled down.I thought about whether I should ask Ah Cheng for a congratulatory gift, what kind of reward should I ask for.
Lin Yuanwu let the crowd hang out for a while, then put his feet up and said, "Get up."
After the words fell, Gu Jiayi got up, stood up straight, and listened to Lin Yuanwu's high-sounding words, to praise this year's Xinke Scholars.
On the main hall, apart from these young people and the eunuchs and maids serving them, there were only four people standing in the front row: the crown prince, the first prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince.As far as they could see, many people wondered why there was no one in their teacher's seat.
Lin Yuanwu seemed to be in a good mood, he smiled and said to the little eunuch Hou on the side of the dragon chair: "Go and see the left minister, the right minister, and the grand master, are they all right?"
After asking, Lin Yuanwu turned around and said to the young people below: "The officials in the court have a lot of discussions about this year's examination papers, and now that the results of the palace examination have come out, I have invited several adults to look at your examination papers. For this work, I will naturally be biased in my official position."
As soon as these words came out, the people below all looked different, some looked excited, and some looked bitter.
The palms of the little black face were sweaty, and the red Jinshi uniform didn't show off his aura, he only remembered his words "climbing".There are several Wu Jinshi who are like this, but there are quite a few literati who are excited, and their eyes are full of eagerness.
It was rare for Gu Jiayi to feel a little bit worried, and couldn't help but look at Lin Yu's side face, thinking that he had been taught by both Father and Lin Yu, so it shouldn't be too bad.Even though he comforted himself like this, the sudden quickening of his heartbeat let him know that he was a little bit afraid.That fear comes from many failures, from many frustrations, from wasted youth.
Soon, the little eunuch who went to call someone came back quickly, followed by Ming Shen and others, and the guards in palace costumes holding wooden boxes.
Mingshen stepped forward calmly, bowed to Lin Yuanwu, and then said: "The examination papers have been screened, and there is no injustice. The officials who graded the papers have done their best this time, and the Holy One will reward them."
Lin Yuanwu looked at the wooden box held by the guard, and said happily, "Is it the most outstanding article this year? Submit it for me to see."
There were only a dozen copies of the articles in the wooden box, and there were more than a hundred Jinshi present, counting civil and military personnel.The total number of examination papers is more than 100, and a dozen or so are selected from a hundred miles, and the ratio is ten to one.The Wen Jinshi who came out of the autumn examination all clenched their hands, hoping that they could be among them.
Gu Jiayi let go of his worries, his share was actually the first one.
If someone else changed, they might not be able to see who it was, and they might not be able to see what was in the wooden box.But Gu Jiayi was tall on the one hand, and sharp-eyed on the other, at a glance, he saw his share, and the unique handwriting made him not mistaken for his share.
Suppressing the joy in her heart, Gu Jia lowered her eyes to hide the triumphant look in her eyes.It's no wonder he had too many surprises.
Right now the examination paper has been unpacked, so the name can be seen. Seeing Gu Jiayi's name, Lin Yuanwu paused before picking it up for a closer look.
He finished it quickly, took a look at Gu Jiayi, and then at Lin Zhen.Then move on to the next one.
The hall was filled with the sound of paper rubbing, and when Lin Yuanwu raised his head, the legs of the number one scholar in liberal arts were numb.
Lin Yuanwu asked slowly: "This first one, doesn't it seem like the second one?"
Mingshen smiled slightly: "This first one is the first one among Wu Jinshi, and it's the only one that is considered the best. I thought that I came out earlier, and I only have one, so I put it at the front. The wise eyes of the sage are like torch."
The literati flattered, with a calm smile on their faces, and their credibility went up.Lin Yuanwu nodded in satisfaction, seeing that Gu Jiayi was not as obtrusive as before.
"It's all insightful articles. I hope that you can apply what you have learned to the common people in the future. As for your whereabouts, except for the military champion being transferred to the East Palace as the commander, the rest will follow the order."
Lin Yuanwu looked at Gu Ye who was behind Ming Shen with a kind smile, and said, "Since Gu Qing's family has a relationship with the crown prince, they might as well get closer."
Lin Yu was looking at Gu Jiayi's examination paper, and when he heard the words, he smiled lightly at the group of Jinshi, dazzled everyone's eyes, and said: "If the younger brother is in the East Palace, I will take care of the sir, so as not to fall into the misfortune of the master." name."
The liberal arts champion suddenly raised his head to look at Gu Jiayi, ground his teeth silently, and agreed with Lin Zhen's words.A disciple of Mr. Jiu Dao, how can he only be a martial artist!
The outside world didn't recognize Gu Jiayi, and Lin Yu naturally knew it. With the help of these sincere young students and Jinshi, it happened to justify Gu Jiayi's name.As for the meaning of Lin Yuanwu's words, Lin Yu only felt that he was getting more and more overwhelmed. Gu Ye could be regarded as the biggest supporter of his stable throne, and he still made such a centrifugal plan!
Mingshen is aloof, who will be the emperor?How are you doing?As long as it doesn't bother him too much.As for Grand Master Qin, he was nothing more than a villain trying to figure out the emperor's will. Only Gu Ye was the orthodox supporter, which was considered reliable.
After the eunuch in charge read the imperial decree, the procedures for the Jinke Scholars were coming to an end.Gu Jiayi and Liberal Arts No. [-] Scholar led the way, leading the No. [-] and Tanhua on both sides, to the gate of the palace, and rode tall horses to the streets.
The people on both sides are crowded together, but because there are too many people, there is no possibility of people flowing, which is a bit safer.
The red official uniform, the young man, the tall horse, and the blessing of fame all made many people very excited, as if they were celebrating for themselves, and also seemed to be happy to see the excitement.
The horse walked very slowly, and a purse with a scent was thrown at Gu Jiayi, he dodged to dodge, only then remembered what it was, so he had no choice but to throw it honestly.
Tang You and Gu Ye, who had left the palace gate, were in the restaurant on one side, looking through the window to see their charming children walking slowly.
***
Three days later, Gu Jiayi, wearing a command uniform, an official hat, and a treasured sword hanging from his waist, stood up for Lin Yu.
Baxi invited him into the study, and Lin Jue was closing a booklet, a little black ink was rubbed on his white hands, and it was smudged on the back of his hands.
When Baxi came in Gu Jiayi, Guajuedi turned around and left, leaving room for the two of them to talk.
Hearing the familiar footsteps, Lin Yu smiled slightly and said, "Come here and pour me tea!"
The teapot in Lin Yu's study room is a small and exquisite purple clay pot. Gu Jiayi touched the body of the pot, and it turned yellow again. He shook the teapot and said helplessly: "There is no more tea, Baxi!"
Baxi moved slowly from the door, and left with the teapot in her hand.
At this time, Lin Yu had already got up, looked at Gu Jiayi's new clothes, and said: "The clothes are very energetic, but it's a pity that you can't ride a horse when you enter the palace?"
Gu Jiayi looked at him ignorantly.
Lin Jue took a step forward, his eyebrows fluttering, and he teased him: "Isn't it going to enter the East Palace with a big head? It's just a horse."
Thinking of this joke, Gu Jiayi dissatisfied: "Are there a lot of people wearing command uniforms?"
"You are the first one I praise."
Gu Jiayi picked up his ink-stained hand, rubbed it with his hand, and watched the black ink set off the tenderness of his heart.Thinking of the congratulatory gift he had talked about, he kissed him quickly.Then, with a strong arm, he hugged the person in his arms.
"Thank you, brother, for your protection yesterday, but is it okay to tell the name of the master? We are about to be expelled from the school."
The wetness on the back of the hand makes people dumbfounded, Lin Yu
