reborn dandy

The sky in late spring is always exceptionally clear. In the morning, the mist is lingering, and when the sun rises in the sky, it dissipates. When the wind blows, the light fragrance of flowers enters the training hall with the sound of books.

When Liu Ruitang talked about Fan Wenzheng's lofty thoughts of worry and joy, it was inevitable that he would be too long-winded. He would praise him again and again, sigh for a while, and when he talked about the high-spirited part, he even asked a few students to do a question-and-answer session.

But the people sitting in the hall are all young people who have not experienced much in the world, how many of them can understand the emotional truth, most of them are drowsy or wandering in the sky.

slap——

The ruler slapped the table, the hearts of all the dozing and wandering people trembled, and they all looked at the sullen Liu Ruitang in unison.

"A pile of rotten wood!" He scolded loudly, and put down the book, "I see you, let alone carving, no matter how rotten the foundation is, it can be crushed into scum with one foot!"

The students looked at each other, lowered their heads silently, and sat upright with their backs straightened.

"The little ink in everyone's belly may not be as good as the concierge of the academy. August and autumn are approaching. If you are so lazy and lazy, when the examiners mark the answer papers, I am afraid that even the old man will scold you too."

This makes sense, students are poor, when people scold you, they will first sigh which teacher taught you.

They are still educated, at least they will bow their heads in shame. For example, Yang Ying, who recently studied during the day and worked with Weng Yanchong at night, learned to compile scriptures and annals, wrote some eulogies, and had too little rest. Hearing Liu Ruitang's reprimand, he almost felt ashamed.

Also sleeping, his deskmate Li Xian was very calm, with a thick skin comparable to a city wall, raised his eyelids, and continued to half-close them.

At the end of a class, Liu Ruitang left with his book, his anger still lingering, all the students were silent, and when he walked away, they were playing and laughing.

After being released from Dali Temple, Han Qingyun restrained and calmed down a lot. He was not as domineering as before, and his temperament completely changed.

Li Xian generally knew the inside story of those things, and in his heart he offered incense and burning paper to Yang Ying, the unlucky bastard.He pretended to ask with a book in his hands, and said to Yang Ying in a low voice, "When you walk at night, don't be alone. Usually, you should be with other people. If something is wrong, run as fast as you can." Quickly, run far away."

"Ah?" Yang Ying was at a loss, not understanding what he meant.

"Just remember it." Li Xian muttered, "Remember it."

After finishing speaking, he returned to his seat, turned around and asked Luo Yu, "Did you get the invitation for the spring hunting?"

Spring hunting in March is a big event, and they can only participate when they are 14 years old, so this year is their first spring hunting. Newcomers can get acquainted here, like Luo Yu and Li Xian, who can't take the imperial examination, and can only rely on recommendation in the future, and personal connections are especially important.

"The palace sent someone to deliver it early in the morning," Luo Yu said, and leaned back in a leisurely manner. "In previous years, it was held in Yunge Mountain, but this year it was changed to Changning Mountain."

Yunge Mountain is located in the north of Kyoto, and Changning Mountain is in Minzhou next door.

"You forgot?" Li Xian whispered, leaning close to his ear, "Dong Guifei's hometown is Minzhou, tsk tsk..."

Concubine Dong Gui is currently favored by thousands of people, and her beauty is in full bloom, even the empress who is sitting firmly on the phoenix chair is hard to match. She may not be able to bear this kind of honor and favor, but I don't know what that one thinks.

However, in Luo Yu's head, there is very little memory about Concubine Dong Gui. She is only known as the adoptive mother of the sixth prince. There is only one empress dowager in the harem, that is, the current empress empress, and no one has heard of her.

There must be some secrets about the palace...

Luo Yu stopped thinking, he had no intention of finding out about these things, let alone getting involved, it was better to take care of his own family.

"Be cautious in your words and deeds." He beat Li Xian, and the trouble came out of his mouth, there are some things that should not be explored.

Li Xian was in pain, and muttered: "You know what's going on." Occasionally, he caught a glimpse of the empty table and chairs next to him, and asked curiously, "You were very close to Han Donglin before, why have you been strangers for the past two days? ?”

"You care so much." Luo Yu stopped him.

"I think you have ghosts in your heart."

"That's really wronged me. I have a deep relationship with you, and I think about it day and night when we don't see each other. If you want it, you are there. How can there be ghosts?"

Li Xian wanted to vomit, it was really disgusting, disgusting, he still did not give up and asked, "Did you treat him... um..." He winked, and said without point.

Luo Yu folded her arms on her chest, a sneer sneered from the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were not kind.

There was a sudden tightness behind his back, and Li Xian quickly stopped: "It's fine if it's not."

No matter how absurd and grotesque, certain behaviors should not cross the line, that is a taboo, he wanted to exhort like this, the clues of the friendship between the two of them can be known at a glance, some words don't need to be stated explicitly, as long as they can be understood.

Since the competition, Lu Xian often wanders around the training hall. He is easy to talk to and easy to get along with.

He came here specifically to look for Yang Ying, and as soon as he entered the door, several studious juniors surrounded him to ask questions.Li Xian looked at it, and shut his mouth in disdain, this little girl has been really an eyesore recently.

Yang Ying got up, waited for Lu Xian to be free, bowed her hands and saluted: "Brother Lu."

Lu Xian took out two posts and said in a soft voice: "After taking a bath in the next day, it just so happens that the clan will hold an elegant gathering and invite celebrities and sages from all directions. You and Donglin can come and sit if you have time."

Elegant collection is a gathering where literati and scholars gather together to compose poems, chant Fu, and discuss knowledge.

Li Xian was so sore that his teeth ached, Yaji, it sounded so damn nice, it was just Lu's way of recruiting disciples, Yang Ying has already belonged to Weng Yanchong's sect, this invitation is for Weng Yanchong Face to face.

Yang Ying was pleasantly surprised, quickly accepted the post, and quickly responded: "I will definitely, I will definitely come when the time comes, thank you brother."

Li Xian directly supported the forehead, Weng Yanchong had old grievances with the Lu family and Lu Yizhi, although this matter has nothing to do with the rest of the Lu family, but there is always a gap, and even if it is not the invitation of the Lu family, it is even Zhang Luo and the Li family. Ask your teacher's opinion, this silly boy, he didn't know whether Weng Yanchong would go or not, so he agreed, really honest.

"Please forward Donglin's post to him. I still have something to do. I'll see you in the future." Lu Xian said.

"Brother, go slowly."

Li Xian shook his head, really stupid.

Hurry up to class, Han Donglin came back with a pile of books, Yang Ying handed over the invitation to him, and told him about the next gathering, he would definitely go, after all, Liu Ruitang was related to the Lu family.

Li Xian glanced at Luo Yu, saw that he was buried in his book and didn't respond, so he looked away at ease.

As for Han Donglin, Xu still complained about the previous incident, deliberately bypassed Luo Yu and went back to his seat, silently tidied up the desk without even turning his head.

There was a gap between the two.

In the afternoon when the hall was released, Luo Yu first went to the Shanggu Hall, and then turned and walked back to the mansion. Passing the Yanjing compound, he suddenly met the majestic Shaoqing Xu Shao.

"Master Xu." Luo Yu shouted.

"Master Luo, there is a destiny." Xu Shao replied.

"Master Xu is here to investigate the case?"

"Just passing by."

Luo Yu smiled: "Since that's the case, can you have the honor to invite your lord to have a cup of rough tea in the humble house?"

Xu Shao was stunned, and replied, "Thank you very much."

Luo Yu then invited him into the mansion, boiled water and made tea, and treated him with extra courtesy.Xu Shao was overwhelmed by the flattery, and wondered what this young master Jiao was trying to do.

"It's inconvenient to talk outside, so I take the liberty to invite my lord into the mansion." Luo Yu explained, "Dali Temple is far away from the prime minister's mansion. If it's not for investigating the case, why bother to come here?"

Xu Shao was silent, swept away the floating tea leaves with a white porcelain cup lid, and took a sip of Longjing.

"And last night, Beizhen Fusi Wei Zongqi also came."

Hearing Wei Ming, Xu Shao's eyes flashed, his upper and lower lips moved, and he said mockingly: "He runs fast."

"It must be a big case that can alert Dali Temple and Jinyiwei to dispatch together." Luo Yu said, lifted the teacup, put it under the nose and smelled it, then put it down again.

"It's just an ordinary theft, it's just that Wei Ming wants to claim credit."

Luo Yu just smiled.

"Since it's a case of theft, my lord can go to the pawnshop in Beijing to investigate, maybe you can find some clues."

Xu Shao also laughed: "If I can find clues in the pawn shop, I will have no chance to drink tea at home."

"In addition to pawnshops, there are also black markets, gambling houses, etc. My lord can track down this place. Presumably, the dirty things have already flowed into the market, and the wind and geese have left traces. It will not be difficult to find the source." Luo Yu thought.

Hearing this, Xu Shao looked at him playfully: "The young master is thoughtful." His tone was flat, and there was no praise or criticism.

"If you are interested in Dali Temple in the future, I can recommend it to the higher authorities."

Luo Yu didn't answer directly. He glanced at the well-growing holly outside the hall, caressed the rim of the teacup with his thin fingers, and changed the subject: "I heard that there was an accident in the Chunfeng Building two days ago, and it was quite a big mess."

"That's Wei Ming's case." Xu Shaodao, "The deceased did not belong to Chunfeng Building. The body was put in Yizhuang and has not been claimed so far. It is still an unsolved case."

He briefly talked about the situation, without going into details.

Luo Yu paused, and twitched his fingers suddenly, wanting to say something, but his servants reported: The Prime Minister is here.

Luo Chengnan had a close friendship with Feng Gongyun, the Minister of Dali Temple, and Xu Shao was Feng Gongyun's proud subordinate and disciple.

When her own father arrived, Luo Yu was reticent and listened to their chat.

Xu Shao is straightforward and straightforward, he knows how to avoid court politics, he only picks up funny stories, and he is pretty in every way, which pleases Luo Chengnan very much.

For dinner at Youshi, Luo Chengnan specially asked him to drink two cups, and finally asked Luo Yu to send him to the carriage.

Before Xu Shao got into the car, he said inexplicably: "The officialdom is turbulent, and Dali Temple is a good place to go. If the young master is interested, I will be here at any time."

Luo Yu's heart was like a bright mirror, he didn't respond, but said: "It's quite cold at night, sir, let's go back to the house and rest earlier."
