Ji Yu

Mr. Gu said that he wanted to find someone to play chess with him, so he taught me how to play Go while painting.

I hold black, and he holds white.I played very slowly, one by one, before I learned the rules, and I would think for a long time before taking every step.But he was very fast, and he looked very casual and calm.

"Have you thought about what to do in the future?" He suddenly asked me when I was thinking about the chess game.

"In the future?", with my identity, there is no future.I really want to leave, but how would he know?

"Are you willing to be a female under a man for the rest of your life? Even if you are willing, it is impossible. Even if he loves you now, what about when you are older? You can stay in this mansion for a lifetime with peace of mind. But when a man gets old, he will only be kicked out. I think you understand."

I nodded.

He smiled with satisfaction, "You are different from those few people. You have a clean background, and now you have studied again. Haven't you thought about taking the imperial examination in the future and honoring your ancestors?"

"My identity... how is it possible?"

"It is indeed impossible to be an official. But the only people who know you are the people in this yard. If you go out in the future, you will have the status of a commoner. If you change places, you can at least be a scholar?"

"..."

"Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and scholars are respected. If you pass the examination of a scholar, you are considered a scholar. Although you can't be an official, you can already see an official without kneeling. This is enough for you to stand. Otherwise, even if you go out, you can only Can be a character who can be bullied by others. If you want to go to a foreign place where you don’t know anyone, you don’t even have family and relatives behind you, and you don’t even have anyone who can talk to you. Even local hooligans can manipulate you at will. But there are It’s different when you get fame, even if there is any trouble, even the yamen can’t arbitrarily convict you.”

I nodded. What he said was not unreasonable, "But you can only take part in the imperial examination at the place of household registration. Even if I can go out in the future, my status in the mansion cannot be concealed from others."

He smiled slightly, "Although I have this status now, my former mentor and the same year are still officials. The crime of my family was condemned by the emperor, and they can't save me. But let them change your household registration or name, But it’s not a big deal.”

"Why are you helping me?"

"It can be regarded as a good relationship. At least I have taught you so many things, and I will help you settle down. It is impossible for me to stay in this mansion forever. If I have nowhere to go in the future and go to you, you will not ignore it." ?”

"You believe me?"

"I think you are a kind person. You are generous to your subordinates, and you are not flattering to your superiors. You have a backbone. Besides, I have no choice. If I am wrong, I can only say that I am unlucky. I Although I still have some friends, but look at my current situation. At the beginning, I stayed in the house of my best friend, but in the end I was just a male favorite. Who else can I count on? Even if there are friends who are willing to take me in, With my current reputation, do I have the nerve to go?"

I was silent for a while, then nodded.

He looked at me for a while, then slowly collected the pieces on the chessboard, "If you want to take the imperial examination, you can't just know characters. From tomorrow, you can come to my place to study."

"Yes."

"You can't tell anyone about this, do you understand?"

"I see."

Back in the room, I carefully recalled what Mr. Gu said.Although I can't believe it all, at least so far, it has not done any harm to me, but it is all good.I will learn it seriously, and take one step at a time.

Let's talk about whether or not to test for talent.Although a scholar has a social status, but I don't have a family business, how can I survive?The purpose of people's examinations for talents is to examine candidates, Jinshi, and then become officials.I can't be an official, so what's the use of being a scholar?

It's good not to kneel when I meet an official, but with fame, I can't go into business, and I can't start a small business to support myself.That's not right, I think it's bad, if I can find someone to help me, then it's okay to hide behind.

You can also be a lawyer, a staff member, or even a clerk in the government office.As long as no one knows about my history of being a male pet, then I can live in peace.

Yes, this history.He can also use this to hold me in his hands, so he is so relieved of me.I used the household registration certificate he provided, so I could only go to the place he chose, and he was not afraid that I would run away.

I finally figured out part of it.

So why did you choose me?Since someone can help him with things, it means that he still has energy.Thinking about how he has been the man's favorite in this mansion for almost ten years, not to mention his reputation, even if it has anything to do with it, it's time for him to leave the tea.Who wants to have a relationship with the son of a prisoner?Listening to him speak in a casual and ordinary tone, it seems easy to do, and I think he can do more than that.Then it must not be true that no one took me in.Perhaps, he just regarded me as a way out.As he said, come to me when you have nowhere to go.

Thinking about it this way, I can figure it out.I also relaxed a lot.I'm still not a great person, and I haven't been entrusted with high hopes by Mr. Gu. It's just a back road, or even one of the back roads.

From spring to autumn, I lived like a student, and two years passed in a hurry.Although there is no "head hanging from the beam, the cone stabs the butt", I also learned it very seriously, and I also learned it.

Because of good nutrition, I have grown to be as tall as the young master.Moreover, his appearance was upright and handsome, his body was strong and strong, and he was already out of the category of soft and petty child prostitutes.I thought that I would be like Qiyu, because I grew up and taller, which made the young master no longer interested.If that's the best way, I'll be able to get away with it.Unfortunately not, he still comes to my room two or three times a month.

Once, he came to my room drunk, and while doing that, he said: "My Lord likes you to read, do you know why?" He didn't seem to intend to wait for my answer at all, and he continued, " Because in that way, you will have the temperament of a scholar, and you will have a demeanor that those prostitutes can't have. In that way, you will know the etiquette, righteousness and shame, and you will feel that it is a shame for a woman to lie under a man. What I like is to see your patient look..."

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder no matter what I learned, he never opposed it, but was very happy to see it succeed.His mentality is really... distorted.

Although I heard this, I didn't have any mood swings.Originally, his identity was just his plaything.What he knew a long time ago, but now he said it directly.Everything is no different from the past.

================================================== =======

Now that I have grown taller, I can no longer completely shrink into Qiyu's arms when I sleep at night, but I still like to sleep with my arms around him.

"Would you like to try on it?"

"what?"

"Ah, what, I'm asking you." He seemed a little embarrassed.

"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"You used to be young. Now that you've grown up, it doesn't seem fair to you to keep you down."

I laughed, he's kind of cute sometimes, but never mind, I'm happy with the status quo, that job seems to be quite tiring.And to be honest, I'm not in the mood to feel cheap or humiliated about something like this.Because this is what I want, not that kind, because it was bought by the young master, so I have to do it.

Although the book says that the yin and yang of men and women are the most reasonable principles of heaven, I'm used to making out with men.I don't think it's wrong or something shameful.Since such a thing exists between heaven and earth, there must be a reason for it.

"No, you're up there."

"Why? Do you look down on me? Or do you think I used to be a prostitute who rides thousands of people and sleeps thousands of people?" He was a little annoyed.

I put my arms around his neck and said in a low voice, "I never looked down on you. I'm just used to it. If you like me on top, you can."

In fact, in terms of appearance, he looks like a beautiful woman, so maybe he looks more suitable below?

He muttered, "Who said that? I don't want to let you suffer. Since you are willing, of course I am more willing."

I got close to him, leaning against him with my whole body, rubbing gently to comfort him.His character is a little sensitive and suspicious, but he is really good to me.

======================================

"Now, you are still in the middle of taking the exam, it depends on your luck. But there is no problem in taking the exam."

"..."

"Your personality is too bland, you don't have much self-motivation, and you don't know how to communicate with others. You can't be an official with such a personality. But it's okay, anyway, your purpose is not to be an official, as long as you get a job and get a foothold That's it."

I nodded.

"It's about time." He took an identity document, a house deed, two bank notes of 500 taels, and ten taels of silver and gave them to me. Leave the corner gate, and there will be a carriage waiting for you. The carriage will take you to a courtyard first, and then take you out of the capital after the city gate opens at dawn. The destination is Lecheng on your ID card. Then you are in There to review and wait for the exam, and take the next year's boy student exam. If you pass the exam, you can continue to take the Juren exam. If you pass the exam, don't take the Jinshi exam, just say you have to review for a few more years. If you haven't passed the exam, then do whatever you want Let’s take another exam. Don’t move anything in your room, and keep your clothes and money, just take what I prepared for you, there will be in the carriage for changing clothes and so on..." Mr. Gu told me many things in detail , and even made up the lies about my life experience for me.

I wrote it down carefully.

"Any question?"

"I want to take someone with me, okay?"

He looked at me for a while, nodded, and gave me another identity document, "You can bring a helper. These two identity documents belong to a brother and a brother. If you bring someone with you, you will be called your brother." Right. By the way, since you want to take part in the imperial examination, you can’t live without characters. I’ll give you one character… just Ji Yu, a gentleman is like jade, you should write it down.”

"Thank you", I got up and saluted him respectfully, thanking him from the bottom of my heart.If he hadn't helped me, I would have fled to the mountains or beyond the Great Wall as a refugee.

He waved his hand, "You go."
