Chapter 10 The Past

Today's Taiwei Yan Hexuan used to be the General of the Hussars. Emperor Ning wanted his son Yan Xuan to enter the palace and study in the Tai Xuetang with the princes because he thought he had made great contributions to his safety.

Although they were "princes", the eldest prince had already been conferred the crown prince at that time, and was taught by the prince's Taifu alone in the East Palace; the fifth prince was still young and had not yet reached school age.In addition, at that time, no other officials' children were allowed to study in the palace, so when Yan Xuan entered the Imperial Academy, there were actually only three princes there.

Among them, although the third and fourth princes were not biological brothers of the same father and mother, they were all raised by the same Jieyu.The two of them are usually playful, and they are not the masters who can calm down. At this time, they are both sitting in the back row, holding books as if they are reading, but in fact, one is sleeping under the cover, and the other is peeking at the book.

Liu Taifu also knew the characters of the third and fourth princes very well, knowing that rotten wood cannot be carved, so he was too lazy to waste his words, turned a blind eye, and focused all his attention on the second prince, Cen Yuan.

After reading a paragraph, he looked at Cen Yuan who was sitting in the front row, only to see that the proud student was also in a trance, his eyes were fixed on the new son of Taiwei Yan, and he didn't notice him at all. The sound has stopped.

"Cough." Taifu Liu cleared his throat softly, "Second Prince."

Cen Yuan suddenly came back to his senses: "Yes!"

Liu Taifu said: "Please also invite the Second Prince to read the next chapter."

"Oh..." Cen Yuan responded subconsciously, turned his attention back to the book, and read after finding a paragraph: "Zhan Bi Qi Ao, Green Bamboo Yi Yi. There are bandit gentlemen, who are like sharpening like learning, like cutting like grinding... ..."

Mrs. Liu: "..."

When Cen Yuan finished reading "Wei Feng · Qi Ao" completely, and looked at Taifu Liu humbly asking for advice, he saw a rare expression on the other side's face: "Second Prince, this is just finished by the old minister. .”

"..." Cen Yuan has always had a thick face, and he didn't change his face, and said calmly: "That's it...Master Tai Tuo, in fact, I couldn't resist reading it again because I thought it was so well written. .”

"Oh?" Liu Taifu said, "Then the second prince, tell me, what is the good way?"

Cen Yuan immediately analyzed this poem line by line, from technique to connotation, and finally expressed his ambition by the way.The entire presentation is powerful and well-articulated, and there is no need to take a breath after finishing a paragraph.

Only after he sat down did he pick up the teapot and pour a glass of water, turning a blind eye to Mrs. Liu's expression of relief, thinking only in his heart: But finally he woke himself up...

After putting down the teacup, he turned his gaze back to the page, and it happened to land on the words of Chapter 3.

"There are bandit gentlemen, as gold as tin, as jade as jade..."

Cen Yuan thought softly in his heart, and couldn't help but secretly glanced at the people sitting next to him.

——What should be said, is the poem brought to life, or is it the person who performed the poem?

What Taifu Liu explained that day, Cen Yuan could hardly hear a single word.

After the Grand Tutor left, he saw Yan Xuan silently tidying up the books on the table, thinking about going to meet the young master of the Yan family, but before he got up, he heard the voice of conversation behind him.

"Fourth, the script you brought back here is really boring." The third prince said after reading the script for the whole class today, "It's about the Zheng clan written in it, I'm a little interested."

"Third brother doesn't know?" the fourth prince said, "It's in a place west of Daning. It is said that the people there look different from us, and the culture is also very different from Daning. Not only are they barbaric, they are even easy to burn ! I heard that the Yan family—”

He paused, as if he just remembered that there are more people in the academy today, and cast a glance at Yan Xuan.

Seeing that the back of the other party was not loose, the fourth prince lowered his voice again, and whispered to the third prince: "Third brother doesn't know, I heard that General Yan's wife is Zheng Ren."

Speaking of this, he quietly cast another glance in Yan Xuan's direction.Although he deliberately kept his voice low, the fourth prince is only a child just over six years old. How could he control himself perfectly? In addition, he was disdainful at first, so he unconsciously amplified his voice a little: "I bought it when I went out of the palace a few days ago. When writing this story, I saw a portrait of Mrs. Yan, she is extremely beautiful, but it is a pity that the concubine is unlucky because of the dystocia."

He looked at Yan Xuan and said: "I heard from people outside that this Zhengren is born with evil spirits in his life, repelling the Han people, and even repelling the Tian family. Third brother, tell me, if this is half Zhengren and half Han -"

--boom!

Before the fourth prince could finish speaking, he was abruptly interrupted by a slap on the table.

Cen Yuan got up slowly, looked down at the back row condescendingly, but the two people were frightened by the sound of the table being slapped, and reflexively fell back and looked up.

"Cen You." Cen Yuan called out the fourth prince's name quietly, his voice hadn't changed yet, but his tone of voice had begun to show majesty: "I remember when I came to the Imperial Academy yesterday, it seems that I have never seen your tongue grow so long."

The fourth prince trembled, and honestly shouted: "Second brother."

Cen Yuan said: "Do you want me to report to Father that the root of your tongue is almost chewed off, so just cut it off."

"Second brother..."

"Second brother! Don't bully me too much!" The third prince came back to his senses, stood up abruptly, and stopped the fourth prince behind him, "We are still brothers after all, and even if he is Lord Yan's son, he is just an outsider. Are you going to sue the younger brothers in front of the emperor for such an outsider today!"

Cen Yuan said: "If it wasn't for the two of you insisting on talking about these rumors in front of yourself in this imperial academy, how would I have the opportunity to sue this account."

Hearing this, the third prince looked at Yan Xuan, who was silent at the side, who was about to leave just after packing up his books, and said with a snort, "I'm afraid that 'I' don't even bother with second brother, you stand up for him!"

As if following the words of the third prince, Yan Xuan walked up to the three of them and saluted politely: "Second prince, third prince, and fourth prince, I will take my leave first."

After all, he didn't even raise his eyes to look at any of the three of them, he turned around and left with his things.

"Look." The third prince said "It really is so" all over his face, "Second brother, the fourth brother and I were just joking, besides, we didn't name anyone to blame, why are you so serious?" !"

Cen Yuan didn't answer for a while, he lowered his head and took out a writing brush from under the messy books on the other party's table, and tapped the middle of the third prince's forehead with the pen holder.

"It hurts!" The third prince covered his forehead, "Second brother, what are you doing!"

"There is a sentence after 'good at joking', which means 'not to be cruel'." Cen Yuan said, "It hurts, so you know, if you can't do these two sentences, it's not a joke, and it's not just a pen. It's as simple as knocking between the eyebrows, but it's a sharp knife stabbing someone's chest."

The third prince was about to open his mouth, but was blocked by Cen Yuan's words.

"Also." Cen Yuan quickly tidied up his things, and left the last sentence: "The first two sentences of these two sentences are 'wide and thick, and heavy and heavy'. If others ignore you, it is because of them You are broad-minded, and I don’t care about you. Although reading a hundred scriptures can’t make you an adult, it’s better than those endless rumors to cultivate your self-cultivation.”

The third and fourth princes were so blocked that they could hardly get out of their anger, let alone rebuttal, and Cen Yuan didn't want to talk to them any more.He was not as tolerant as Yan Xuan, and he glared at the three and four princes one after another before taking his things and leaving.

After trotting out of the Imperial Academy, Cen Yuan wandered around twice before finally finding a moving figure in the corridor in the distance.

"Yan—" he shouted subconsciously, but suddenly he didn't know what to call the other party, and got stuck after shouting a word.But the other party didn't know whether it was because the distance was too far to hear his shout, or he didn't know that the person being called was himself, and he didn't even turn his head.

Cen Yuan ran all the way into the corridor, he didn't like to be served at that time, so there was not even a maid behind him at this time.

"Yan Xuan!" Cen Yuan shouted again, "Come back!"

Yan Xuan finally slowed down, looking back, his expression changed when he saw who was coming, although the change was insignificant.

He called: "Second Prince."

Cen Yuan ran all the way over, because he was impatient, he didn't bother to adjust his breath, and now he was a little short of breath when he stopped in front of Yan Xuan.

With his hands on his hips, he lowered his head and panted heavily, then raised his head again and said, "You really just left like this."

Yan Xuan looked at him puzzled.

"I stood up for you, and you didn't even say a word of thanks?" Cen Yuan said.

Yan Xuan lowered his eyes, and said kindly: "Thank you, Second Prince."

Unexpectedly, when he said this, Cen Yuan slapped his nose again: "It's really just a word of thanks?"

Yan Xuan asked, "What does the second prince want?"

"Hmm..." Cen Yuan paced and pondered, unable to think of it for a while, Yan Xuan said upon seeing this: "If the second prince can't think of it for a while, then we can talk about it tomorrow."

After all, he was about to raise his hands as a salute, but Cen Yuan held down his hands as soon as he raised them halfway.

"Wait!" Cen Yuan said, "I thought of it!"

Yan Xuan: "?"

Cen Yuan: "Go to a place with me."

Yan Xuan: "..."

Although he didn't say anything, a look of embarrassment immediately appeared on his face.

Cen Yuan was about to let go of the opponent's hands, but after seeing Yan Xuan's expression, he clenched them tightly again, and said in a sticky voice, "You can't even agree to this small request, right?"

"no……"

"What is that?" Cen Yuan asked, "Is there any other arrangement next?"

Yan Xuan shook his head.

Cen Yuan let go and patted him on the arm: "Can you stop hampering and finish the sentence."

Yan Xuan looked unspeakable, until he met Cen Yuan's persistent gaze, and then murmured: "Isn't the second prince afraid that what they said is true?"

"Which one?" Cen Yuan didn't realize what the other party said at first, and it took a long time before he said "ah" with enlightenment, and patted the other party's shoulder again.

"Isn't that just some nonsense!" Cen Yuan said, "If you even believe it yourself, wouldn't it be more helpful to the evildoers?"

"I……"

"What about me?" Cen Yuan interrupted directly, raised his eyes to look at the other party, but suddenly realized that he seemed to be looking up at Yan Xuan all the time.

The growth rate of young people varies from person to person, but at this moment, Cen Yuan felt that this posture really lacked some momentum, and immediately flicked his wide sleeves, and with his toes on the ground, he jumped directly onto the railing of the corridor.

At that time, his lightness kung fu hadn't reached the level of perfection in the future, and the railings were too thin. As soon as he stepped on them, he swayed back and forth several times, and finally managed to stand firm while holding the pillars, and was able to turn around.

"You just say whether you're going or not."

He stared at Yan Xuan from top to bottom, saw that the other party had no expression for a while, and then said: "I think, whether it is evil or evil, good or bad, in the end it is all a matter of man-made. Even if it happens to me in the future If something bad happens, it must be a grievance and a debtor, I will go to the instigator and tell it, there is no reason to blame you."

Yan Xuan's long eyelashes trembled, like butterfly feathers fluttering, lightly sweeping over Cen Yuan's heart.Cen Yuan was taken aback, and even shook his body.

Yan Xuan raised his eyelids and immediately reached out to him: "Come down first."

Cen Yuan's eyes fell on the opponent's open palm, and then moved to the opponent's eyes, pretending to be angry: "Is it so difficult to say 'go'?"

Yan Xuan said: "Come down first."

Cen Yuan: "..."

He cursed this dead wood in his heart, seeing that the hard one would not work, so he simply changed it to a soft one.

"You really don't want to go with me?" Cen Yuan hugged the pillar with one hand, stretched out the other hand, but deliberately missed Yan Xuan's hand.

Like the other party, he spread out his palms and blinked twice quickly: "Look, I just blushed because of you."

Yan Xuan: "..."

Cen Yuan bit his lip, seeing the other person's expression loosen, he thought for a while and said: "And it's my birthday today, you won't even give me this face."

Hearing this sentence, Yan Xuan's tense expression finally collapsed completely, and he nodded slightly.

Cen Yuan felt as if he heard a "click", and a lock that locked the other party in the outermost layer of his heart was slowly unlocked.He smiled, turned his palms and backs, and took Yan Xuan's hand, that hand that was not much bigger than him immediately wrapped his five fingers, and the heat immediately flowed along the blood vessels, all the way to the limbs.

After two sticks of incense, Cen Yuan followed with a little tail and arrived in front of Jin'an Palace.
