Qi Zhinian is a quiet person. When he was still in the British government, although his status was embarrassing, no one really restrained him. It can even be said that he is very free, whether it is the eldest princess or the British Duke Qi Huai , without any demands on him.
It was he himself who wanted to get Qi Huai's attention, so he studied hard.
In other people's opinion, the British Gong Qihuai's knowledge could not be better, but his status is too noble to take part in the scientific examination, otherwise he must be the youngest number one scholar in the dynasty.
No one asks Qi Zhinian, but he has demands on himself. He has Qi Huai's protection, and all his food and clothing are in the Qi family. He doesn't want to be as good as Qi Huai, but he can't embarrass Qi Huai and the British government.
Therefore, he seldom goes out to play with others, and spends all his time studying. He has no friends, and he has a teacher at home to teach him.
At the beginning, he didn't even think about going to take the science exam, he just wanted to learn more.
It was this summer, the eldest princess was rarely interested, and came to see him in class. The old Hanlin mentioned something, and the eldest princess thought of this. Qi Zhinian is not considered a member of the British government, and he can take the imperial examination. .It was also after seeing Lao Hanlin and asking Qi Zhinian a few words, that the eldest princess knew that Qi Zhinian's knowledge was really good, and it wasn't that people outside said too much.
After all, looking at the grown-up child, the eldest princess also hoped that Qi Zhinian would be well, so she immediately decided to let him take the children's examination next year, and after passing the examination, the family could arrange an official job for him. There is a way out.
Qi Zhinian has no ambitions for fame and fortune in his heart. To him, the scientific examination is just another way to get Qi Huai's attention. Originally, he would definitely pass the children's examination in the next year.
He also dreamed that Qi Huai could guide him.
That's all for now.
Because he had no friends and rarely went out of the city to play, he didn't know the way, so the journey was extremely bumpy.
After leaving the city, there are several roads leading to Xiangxuehai. The best road is the official road. As a commoner, he can’t walk now. He has no experience in life, so he picks a road that he thinks is not bad and rushes to the mountains. up.
At the beginning, there were many pedestrians around, but as we walked, the number of people gradually decreased.
Qi Zhinian went up to the mountain to find a kind Taoist priest, but he didn't pay attention until he couldn't hear anyone's voice. He looked around and found that there was no one else but himself. Now his heart started to jump. Could it be that he went the wrong way? ?
But when he looked up, he could indeed vaguely see the spiers of the pagoda. It should be the Taoist temple, and he was right.
Qi Zhinian was already sore all over by now, especially the soles of his feet. He stood still and supported the big tree to rest for a while, took a deep breath and continued to climb up. The snow started to fall again, and it fell harder and harder. How could Qi Zhinian's patched cotton robe resist the cold wind on the mountain?
Climbing up the mountain, he was sweating all over his body. The wind and snow blowing like this made his body even colder. Climbing up the mountain against the wind, his legs were like sandbags tied, and he finally took another step closer to the spire of the tower. His feet slipped, He rolled directly down the mountain. If there was not a tree blocking him, he would have hit a rock.
Even so, he also breathed in the pain, lying on the icy snow, looking at the gradually darkening sky, thinking of what happened in the past few days, his nose became sore, and the corners of his eyes became wet.
But there is no one to blame for this incident. It is the fault of the mother and him, and the eldest princess and the others are the victims.
He has enjoyed the blessing for 16 years. He has read sage books since he was a child. He is a man. If this situation can defeat him now, how will he protect his mother and Mother Fan in the future?
He stretched out his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes vigorously, took another deep breath, and got up vigorously again. He moved his hands and feet without hurting the root, but the cotton robe that was originally patched was completely torn, with several holes and cotton wool. They are all floating outside.
Qi Zhinian took out the steamed stuffed bun that he was clutching in his arms, he ate one, and his body became stronger. He picked up the snow and ate a few mouthfuls to moisten his throat, tucked his clothes tightly, and continued to walk up the mountain cautiously. Now I know that I have indeed gone the wrong way, but I have already come here. Fortunately, the tower is getting closer and closer, and I can reach it anyway. It is nothing more than a little detour, which is better than going back and starting all over again.
Continuing to walk up the mountain like this, until it was dark and the moon hung on the branches, he finally smelled the fragrance of wintersweet flowers brought by the wind.
He was ecstatic in his heart, I am afraid it will arrive soon!
But he also felt uneasy, wondering if those priests would still be willing to help him when this time came?
Fortunately, the closer the fragrance of wintersweet is, it somewhat soothes his mood. He likes the fragrance of wintersweet the most. He himself was born in winter, and the day he was born was when the wintersweet bloomed everywhere in the house.
The most familiar smell in my memory is the winter plum fragrance from Qingyinju.
Following the fragrance of wintersweet, he walked faster. When the fragrance became stronger and stronger, he suddenly heard a low cry. There was movement.
He thought he had heard it wrong, and after walking a few more steps, the cry came again.
It sounded like... like the sound of a deer.
Is it the snow that traps the wild deer in the forest?
Qi Zhinian carefully stepped on the snow under his feet and moved towards the forest, as if he sensed someone approaching, the deer barked even more cheerfully, following the sound of the deer, Qi Zhinian walked twenty steps, borrowing Moonlight saw a sika deer lying in the snow not far away.
"It's really a deer!" Qi Zhinian muttered, and stepped forward, the deer was not afraid of people, and even bent its head to get closer to him.
Qi Zhinian likes deer very much, and there are several deer in the garden of the princess' mansion. Every time he goes there, he will go to see the deer and feed them with his own hands. The little deer arched his hand with its small horns, but it never got up.
"Are you injured?" Qi Zhinian knelt down to look carefully as he said that, sure enough, there was a puddle of blood in the snow under the moonlight.
Qi Zhinian hissed, and then touched its head in distress: "But it hurts?"
"Yo~~"
Qi Zhinian turned his head to look at the spire that was very close, and muttered, "I'll take you to the Taoist temple on the mountain. The Taoist priests are very kind-hearted and will definitely cure you."
After saying that, Qi Zhinian hugged it up. Fortunately, the deer was still young, so he could still hug it.
The little deer is very obedient, nestling in Qi Zhinian's arms obediently and silently, when Qi Zhinian walked on a side road, it barked, its little head arched in the other direction, Qi Zhinian walked in that direction A few steps away, there is a very dense forest.
"There is obviously no way here." Qi Zhinian murmured softly, still wanting to return.
The little deer pushed him vigorously with the small horns on the top of his head, so Qi Zhinian had no choice but to walk a few steps into the forest symbolically, but found that the wintersweet fragrance here is even stronger. It is said that the Taoist temple is in the deepest part of the plum forest, Qi Zhinian was overjoyed, Does this deer know the way?
He hurried through the forest, and as soon as he poked his head out of the dense forest, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
Under the clear moonlight, on the snow-white ground, there are winter plums that can't be seen!
Snow light and moonlight intertwine, the bright yellow plum blossoms are small and cute, they bloom extremely lively, and the fragrance is refreshing, in an instant, Qi Zhinian feels that the fatigue of walking all the way has disappeared, presumably this is the rumored Xiangxuehai!
Qi Zhinian was very happy, he was about to lift his foot to go out, passing through this plum grove, it should be a Taoist temple!
He also did see the tower which had grown very very close and had grown very large.
"Shh-"
But at this moment, right in front of his eyes, a rain of plum blossoms suddenly fell, and the plum blossoms of several trees suddenly fell one after another, blown by the wind, fluttering with snowflakes, beautiful like a fairyland, until there was another silver light, and it was full again. The plum blossoms of the tree were shaken by the wind, and Qi Zhinian realized that the silver light was sword light!
Someone is using a sword here!
Qi Zhinian should be afraid. After all, he has no strength to restrain a chicken, but there is a person here who can cut off the plum blossoms on the branches without any mistakes, Qi Zhinian. Nian saw it with his own eyes, the sword flew out of nowhere, without any deviation, it cut off every plum blossom from the branch just right, and could raise it high.
He had never seen such handsome swordsmanship.
In the past, he was the young prince of the British government. The eldest princess would sometimes bring him with her when she went to the palace to attend banquets. Occasionally, there would be martial arts competitions in the palace to add to the fun. All the contestants were first-class masters in court, and none of them could use swordsmanship so.
Qi Zhinian's feet seemed to be stuck in the snow, and he couldn't move anymore.
The sword light reappeared, and several plum blossoms fluttered again. After the plum blossoms were cut down, the long sword swung back smoothly, and an arm appeared in Qi Zhinian's field of vision. Qi Zhinian's eyes widened, and a white figure flew around In the rain of plum blossoms, he stretched out his hand to catch the sword, and with a sword flower in his hand, he quickly stabbed at another plum blossom beside him.
"Shh-"
He cut down another plum tree with his own hands, and the petals of the plum blossom rose high. He took the sword back and carried it behind his back, and many petals quietly fell into the man's black hair.
Qi Zhinian swallowed, and stared at the figure without blinking, hoping that the person could move a few more times, he still wanted to see.
At this moment, the deer in his arms barked happily.
The man immediately looked back at him.
Qi Zhinian was so frightened that he stayed where he was and didn't dare to move. The man turned his back to the moonlight and couldn't see his face clearly, but Qi Zhinian could feel his gaze fixed on him like an eagle. Qi Zhinian subconsciously wanted to back away. But he couldn't move.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and Qi Zhinian could even feel the colder gaze of the other party.
The man's hand moved, and the sword light flashed again.
Qi Zhinian muttered, hid under the pine tree, and whispered: "Yes, I'm sorry, Dao, brother Daochang——"
Qi Huai raised his eyebrows.
Brother Taoist?
Originally planned to fly out with a sword to end this person's life, but all the people in the world who saw him strike, except Xu Yan and Master, were all dead.
Hearing this voice, he felt amused, it was the first time someone called him that.
After all, apart from the one in the palace and Senior Brother Xu Yan, even the mother didn't know that he, the famous British prince who stayed away from home all day long and indulged in mountains and rivers, would stay in this Taoist temple.
Listen to the voice, this person is still very young, a teenager, or even younger.
Listening to breathing, and I have never learned kung fu at all.
Seeing him hiding under the pine tree, he really couldn't see clearly, Qi Huai took three steps forward, but the boy was so frightened that he wanted to back up, Qi Huai narrowed his eyes slightly, and lazily said: "Stop."
Qi Zhinian didn't expect that Daochang's elder brother's voice was colder than Xue's, he stood still and didn't dare to move.
The sword in Qi Huai's hand moved casually, the sword light fell on the snow surface, and was reflected on Qi Zhinian's face. In the flash of light, he saw Qi Zhinian's eyes, like a deer, hastily Dazzling and bright.
"Come out." Qi Huai ordered.
"..." Qi Zhinian didn't dare to go out.
"If you don't come out, you will die."
"..." Qi Zhinian's teeth chattered a little, he tried his best to take a few steps forward, but he still hid under the pine tree and refused to come out completely, but after all, he showed a little face under the moonlight.
Because of this, Qi Huai saw his face.
It was he himself who wanted to get Qi Huai's attention, so he studied hard.
In other people's opinion, the British Gong Qihuai's knowledge could not be better, but his status is too noble to take part in the scientific examination, otherwise he must be the youngest number one scholar in the dynasty.
No one asks Qi Zhinian, but he has demands on himself. He has Qi Huai's protection, and all his food and clothing are in the Qi family. He doesn't want to be as good as Qi Huai, but he can't embarrass Qi Huai and the British government.
