This time Xie Wenzhuo went out for a long time, and he couldn't come back at night.

Yan Ji had his dinner, and after taking a bath, he leaned on the couch with wet hair and waited for him.

The moonlight was thick outside, the night wind slowly blew through the hibiscus by the window, and the lights slowly dimmed.When Xie Wenzhuo still didn't come back when his hair was eight percent dry, Yan Ji didn't wait any longer, turned off the lights and went to sleep after dismissing the palace people.

In the middle of the night, Yan Ji was awakened by a chill.

He opened his eyes, and in the dim moonlight, he saw a person half-kneeling by the side of the couch, bending over to look at him.

The tip of the nose smelled a faint scent of sandalwood, and Yan Ji knew that it was Xie Wenzhuo. After the corners of his mouth curled into an invisible arc, he closed his eyes again.

Soon, I felt that my lips were covered with warmth, with a sense of careful cherishment, just like the kiss at the beginning, fleeting like a touch of water.

This kind of kiss is almost a day, no, it is a night.

Since the first time Xie Wenzhuo stole a kiss, he would come in from the side hall every night after Yanji fell asleep, and leave such a light kiss, but he didn't know that Yanji was always awake.

Yan Ji sighed silently in his heart.

He has struggled with ups and downs in so many lives, and it has been over a hundred years now, but he has years in the matter of Fengyue but has no experience at all.So when first knowing Xie Wenzhuo's mind, Yan Ji first thought of flirting with each other, but after settling down, many things were not that simple.

Yan Ji has a charming mind and [-]% trust in Xie Wenzhuo, so it is not difficult to entrust the rest of his life,

But his life is too short, only eight years can be given to Xie Wenzhuo.Eight years later, he may perish or be reborn, but Xie Wenzhuo can only spend his life facing a handful of loess.

Just thinking about it makes me feel uncomfortable.

The eyebrows were suddenly touched by warm fingers.

Yan Ji thought it was him who frowned unconsciously just now, but when Xie Wenzhuo found out, his heart skipped a beat.The man's fingertips didn't stay there, and slowly passed between his eyebrows and down, gently depicting his facial features.

Yan Ji heaved a sigh of relief, trying to make his breathing as gentle as possible.After a long time like this, Xie Wenzhuo retracted his fingers, knelt on the side of the couch and stared at Yanji for a long time, finally leaned over and kissed him lightly between the eyebrows, and then Yanji heard shallow footsteps.

After the sound of footsteps, the palace door was gently shut.

Yan Ji closed her eyes, but felt that she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

……

I couldn't sleep all night, and my mood was naturally not much better.

Once in the court, Yan Ji didn't bother to listen to the decent words of the officials, so he said expressionlessly before they opened their mouths: "If there are performances, then pick the useful ones, and if they are useless, you all know in your heart what the result will be." .”

All the ministers were tossed by his temper for more than half a year, and they were very sensitive about it. They choked up countless words in their hearts, looked at each other, and didn't know what to say for a while.

They feel that this day is very tormented.

The temperament of the young emperor above is too unpredictable. At the beginning, it was cloudy and sunny, but there was at least a sign when it changed, so that's all.I don't know what happened a few days ago, the emperor looked in a good mood, but his habit of poisonous tongue has not changed, so the daily life of a sullen and poisonous tongue has become a smile with a poisonous tongue.

The horror at the first sight dissipated with difficulty, and the emperor changed his routine again, directly turning into a deadpan mode, looking over with indifferent eyes, making them feel that no matter what they say, the result will be the same——

Don't use the big taunt technique too smoothly.

All the ministers wisely lowered their heads and remained silent, waiting for the first bird to bear the attack first.

Song Qian, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, felt bitter in his heart, and after hesitating for a while, he went forward: "Your Majesty, the minister has played, and now the imperial examination is less than a month away, and the lists of candidates from all over the country have been reported, but the examination papers and examiners have not yet come up." Decided, should we still follow the rules of previous years?"

Yan Ji looked at Song Qian and felt even angrier.

He is feeling uncomfortable now, so he wants to find someone to vent his anger on, but firstly, Song Qian and Wei Rong are the leaders of the neutral faction, they are innocent, upright and loyal, and secondly, what he said is indeed the right thing, clean and neat, and there is nothing wrong with it Room for faults.

Yan Ji decided to bear it any longer: "What did you do last year?"

"Last year's examination papers were produced by the four academicians of the Hanlin Academy. Prince Duan and Mrs. Su co-supervised the examination. The top ten of the general examination entered the palace examination. The late emperor appointed the No. [-] scholar to be the top candidate, and personally drafted the official positions. The rest were managed by the official department."

"That year's number one scholar... I remember it seems to be Grand Tutor Xie?" Yan Ji said: "It seems that this person who can enter the palace is indeed some real talent, just follow the old system."

Song Qian responded, and said again: "Then it's up to the examiner to choose. The examiner must not repeat it within five years. This time, he still has to choose again."

Yan Ji nodded and looked up: "Do you have a suitable candidate in your mind, or someone who thinks he can take on the job and recommends himself?"

His Highness was silent for a while, then Luo Ming bowed: "Your Majesty, I would like to give it a try."

He started, and afterward, many courtiers uttered their voices. After listening to Yan Ji, he reached out to touch the Buddhist beads on his wrist, and said, "I'm very relieved that you have such a heart, but there are too many people, and I don't know." How to choose, you work together on weekdays, and you know a lot about each other, why don't you talk about it and choose the most outstanding two."

After that, he smiled: "Why don't you just listen to what the person who took up this position last year said... Uncle Wang, let's talk about it first."

Yan Zhouyi was stunned, then stepped forward, pretending to be in deep thought for a long time, and said: "Your Majesty, Luo Shangshu was born in the second place in the past, and he is also a visionary in the court for several years. I think he is very suitable as an examiner."

His words were within Yanji's expectation, he nodded and looked at Su Mou again: "What do old master Su think?"

The ministers originally thought that the person recommended by Su Mou would also be from his side, but the old grand master smiled and thought for a while, but said a name that no one had thought of: "I think that Taifu Xie is suitable, the champion, the emperor The talent of the teacher, I think, is the most able to select talents for Daqi."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was opposed by the officials sent by Yan Zhou: "Teacher Xie only entered the imperial court last year. After all, he is still young, and he is in Miyagi. He knows little about it. This matter is of great importance, how can he be so careless."

Su Mou didn't speak, Yan Ji squinted his eyes first: "You mean, my eyelids are shallow, and the tutor I chose is so useless that I can't even take the position of examiner?"

The minister who spoke was startled, knowing that Emperor Qinghe had once again committed the fault of protecting his shortcomings, he bowed his head: "I have no such intention."

"Then what else can you mean?" Yan Ji sneered: "You are not fake, Taifu's fifteen book "Current Affairs Policy" was used by the late emperor at that time, and he was praised for his great talent. Can you come up with a strategy?"

The courtier looked embarrassed.

Yan Ji continued: "Furthermore, being in Miyagi knows very little about the outside world. The Taifu used to travel all over the world, and he can tell a thing or two about the situation in various places. If you go out of Kyoto, don't talk about other things, just talk about the eighteen prefectures. How much can you recognize? ?”

The courtier bowed his head in shame.

Yan Ji's expression returned to the previous lazy look: "And, no matter what, Mrs. Xie's appearance is very good-looking, and it won't disgrace me if I put it outside. If you have such a face... Tsk."

Courtier: "..."

After Yan Ji's great mocking technique was performed, he felt at ease: "Then this year's examiners are tentatively designated as Luo Shangshu and Mrs. Xie. During the examination, General He will lead the Lieyan Battalion to be responsible for the defense of the capital. Do you have any objections?"

After watching the emperor's venomous tongue, the ministers didn't dare to object. In addition, Yan Zhou's intention had been achieved, and Su Mou was not behind, so naturally no one said anything.

That's how it was settled.

Yan Ji's mood was a little relieved, and they were pleasing to the eye, and they hadn't turned on the poisonous tongue mode.Seeing that the emperor's face changed for the better, the ministers gradually relaxed their minds and started arguing about the coming and going of the imperial examination.

Yan Ji was too lazy to listen to what they said, sat on the top and looked down casually, his eyes finally fell on Xie Wenzhuo involuntarily, the latter stood there with a smile, and the corner of his mouth smiled slightly when he saw Yan Ji's gaze sweeping over Hook, it is exactly the same as when I said before that I want to teach by example.

Probably due to habit, Yan Ji began to be distracted again, but after thinking about it for a long time, he remembered the hurdle of being 24 years old, his expression gradually darkened, and he looked away.

Xie Wenzhuo looked at him and narrowed his eyes slightly.Fu Zhihuai and Xie Wenzhuo stood on the side, taking their expressions into their eyes, bowed their heads in silence for a long time, unconsciously clenched their hands hidden under the wide sleeves.

……

After returning to the imperial study room, Yanji still couldn't recover. The matter of being 24 years old had always been in his heart. Between is a thorn in the heart.

He was in a bad mood, so he was naturally reticent. He only smiled a little when Fu Zhihuai and He Ji came, and then left immediately after seeing them off.

Xie Wenzhuo stood beside him cooking tea and grinding ink, and didn't say much, but at the end when Yan Ji was so irritable and dropped his pen, he reached out and took a cloth towel to wipe off the ink stained on his hand, saying: "Your Majesty is in the heart But something happened?"

Yan Ji raised his eyes to look at his face, thinking that such a good person could not be wanted, made his mood even worse.

He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head: "Teacher, do you still remember the story in the script that I told you and Shao He before?"

Xie Wenzhuo nodded: "Of course I haven't forgotten."

"Okay." Yan Ji said: "Before Shao He asked me what happened to that person after he went back to the past again. I didn't think about it at the time, but now I suddenly think of it. I fell in love with someone and wanted to spend the rest of my life with him.”

Xie Wenzhuo smiled: "This is a good thing."

"It's a good thing, but..." Yan Ji looked at him fixedly: "But this person won't live to be 24 years old, and he knows in his heart that he might not be able to live with that person for a long time, so he is naturally entangled and doesn't know what to do... How do you feel?"

Xie Wenzhuo thought for a while: "How does the person he likes get married?"

"It should be regarded as a persistent person." Yan Ji said: "It's the kind that believes that a person is only this person. If this person dies, he will never have another person for the rest of his life. This is why that person is entangled. , after all, wasting this person's life for a few years, it's too... sad."

Hearing what Yan Ji said, Xie Wenzhuo smiled: "If this is the case, isn't this a very simple matter?"

"Ok?"

"Since only one person is identified in his life, if that person is with him, he will have at least those few years in his life, and he will still have a thought for the rest of his life, but if he is not there, then it is truly a lifetime, and nothing is left. .”

He lowered his eyes and said softly, "The most painful thing in a person's life is not gaining and then losing, but looking back at the twilight and realizing that there is not even one person in his life who can remember when he is dying."

Yan Ji didn't know what it was like for a moment.

He raised his head and stared blankly at Xie Wenzhuo, who met his eyes with a smile, and there was a warm tenderness deep in the dark pupils.

As if confused by such eyes, Yan Ji raised his hand and touched the corner of Xie Wenzhuo's eyes lightly with his fingers. The person touched did not move, allowing him to move. After a long time like this, Yan Ji suddenly laughed: "Too Fu means, why not enjoy yourself in time?"

Xie Wenzhuo smiled: "Perhaps you can think so."

Hearing this, the gloom on Yan Ji's face completely dissipated, and he tapped his finger next to Xie Wenzhuo's eyes for a while, and said, "I remember."

Xie Wenzhuo looked at him, his brows and eyes filled with tenderness.
