The Laughing Usa of the Red Chamber

The snow falls silently, and the quiet and elegant Hanshan Academy is still full of books.

Finely grind the fine Hui ink, spread the rice paper on the desk made of huanghuali wood, and slightly outline the outline of a plum tree with the tip of the pen.

A light-colored shadow covered his sight, and when he raised his head, a boy with a light yellow double-breasted white fox collar and handsome features came into view.

"Hey, you're free today, General Chen is triumphant today, the battle is going to be big, why don't you go and see?"

The young man smiled happily, "It happens to be a monthly holiday, and my husband is not here, so those sour scholars are working hard."

I kept writing, pointing out a few ink-colored plum blossoms, and the clear voice between children and teenagers sounded faintly, "It's crowded with people, what can I see? What's more, this battle is so serious? One day, today I will personally welcome you out of the city."

When he was a young man, he also admired Chen Jiajun, but when he felt that the words entered his heart, he suppressed his excitement, sat down beside Shen Yulin, and watched him paint with his head bent.

A picture of ink plums is well-balanced in shades and layers, although due to his young age, his brushwork is somewhat lacking, but it is already considered a rare masterpiece.

Su Mingyin put the white fox's scarf together, and said with a smile: "It's the occasion."

Shen Yulin raised his head, raised his phoenix eyes slightly, glanced at him, and said, "What exactly are you here for?"

Although this person usually talks a lot, he never stays on topic for a long time, but today he is very suspicious.

Su Mingyin's cheeks flushed.

He faltered for a while, then suddenly showed a shy smile, his eyes seemed to be shining, and even his voice was fluttering.

"Yulin, do you know? Tomorrow my father will take me to visit General Chen! General Chen! I must take this opportunity to learn from my teacher, definitely!"

But this Su Mingyin is Taifu Su Congbo's beloved son, and now his sister, Princess Jingyi, is born in the direct line. Even the princes want to call him Junior Brother.

Shen Yulin looked at Su Mingyin quite interestingly, from the top to the bottom, gradually showing an expression that he couldn't bear to look directly at.

Su Mingyin coughed lightly, and said, "Be serious, I really want to join the army."

Shen Yulin frowned, "Oh?"

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Su Mingyin said anxiously: "The Yi tribe invaded my border, killed my people, and robbed me of money and food. How can a man of seven feet in my generation stay in a corner? If you want to straddle a horse and defend the country, you will live up to it."

What he said was very solemn, which made Shen Yulin, who was originally thinking of joking, suppress the smile in his eyes.

"Ming Yin has high ambitions, I am short-sighted," Shen Yulin said, "You must know that Master Su is well-known in the court, but you have a bright future in official career. If you join the army, it will be too difficult to be promoted... ..”

In the history, how many good generals have worked hard for half their lives, and when they became famous, they were already half disabled.Those who were entrusted with military merits at a young age, since the three dynasties, they can only show up as Pei Qi and the Jin family Shuangbi.

He had never heard of the name Su Mingyin, and he probably relied on his father's shadow and lived a mediocre life.

Five years of childishness, thanks to Shen Xiang's careful teaching, Shen Yulin is not as utilitarian as before, facing this passionate friend, he can't help but sincerely persuade: "Wen Anbang, Wu Dingguo, each perform their own duties, Mingyin is quite good at internal affairs, Why do you need to bury your talent?"

Su Mingyin turned her head and said: "The court dispute is very chaotic, but I don't want to go into this muddy water."

Shen Yulin knew that he had already made up his mind, so he couldn't persuade him anymore.After careful consideration, he recalled that the two brothers Hua Yaohou and Shenjihou in the future are Emperor Wu's confidantes, and they are not stupid if they can spend half their lives in splendor. It will be well protected, so it's good to go to experience it, so I won't say more.

Hanshan Academy is the best private school in the capital. It is divided into front and rear courtyards, one is Zhuyun Pavilion and the other is Qiuqixuan.

In the past few years, Shen Yulin has also noticed that although Shen Xiang is a conspiracy, it is only because he is indifferent and doesn't like to show up. In terms of qualifications and strength, he should be the mastermind under King Yongning's account.

So although he is getting older and more beautiful, there are very few people in this pavilion who don't have eyes and dare to miss him.

Sending Su Mingyin out is just a cup of tea, yet there is an extra branch of white plum blossom on his desk.

In the past, there was a son, Baimei, who was the attendant of Emperor Zhao Yun.

This is not only a veiled inquiry to show favor, but more to put him as a subordinate, and to discuss with the young master Baimei.

Extremely angry, he laughed instead.

The 13-year-old boy has a handsome face and a gentle temperament. When he smiles, he looks like a peach blossom, shining brightly.

Under the white plum is a piece of paper, the signature is blank, the front is a love poem, and the back is written after nightfall, ten miles outside the city, in front of Yutai Temple, at Xiaoxuan Pavilion.

Shen Yulin's fingertips tightened suddenly, and just as he was about to tear it apart, he glanced and paused.

He gradually put away his smile, pinched the paper, and read it again with a blank expression.

A little apprehensive about coming,

See Xi and bewildered.

This is a guest from heaven,

Wang should think for himself.

After a long time, his lips moved slightly, and he silently uttered four words: "Come, see, Ben, king?"

At this time, there are only four princes who have been crowned kings, but only the third prince who is in the south of the Yangtze River is not in the capital. As for the loyal prince, he has no time to tease him.

Shen Yulin pondered for a while, and suddenly sniffed the ink, his eyes sank.

Yangzhou ink, Huaicheng paper, and the calligraphy of Chen Fanzhi, a great Confucian in the south of the Yangtze River.

Can't help but smile wryly, this master really thinks highly of him.

The dragon gave birth to nine sons, and the methods are also superior or inferior. Since Emperor Wu of Jin is the eternal emperor, there will naturally be one or two stupid ones.

With his mind turning, he had guessed eight or nine points of this matter.

Bringing his usual little book boy, Jinxiu, Shen Yulin walked out of the academy all the way, and when he walked to the street, he only looked around with an excited look. After shopping for a long time, he found a teahouse and had a few snacks. It was really relaxing.

After a while, there was still a lot of traffic downstairs.

He was happy on the face, but his heart gradually sank.

There is a lot of people at the Arc de Triomphe, but these markets are still as prosperous as they used to be?

Shen Yulin was as careful as a hair, so he didn't know that King Yongning had been plotted against, and it took a lot of thought to spread the news.

In the streets and alleys, in restaurants and teahouses, people are staring at all the hidden clues. It must be a traitor in the palace. He doesn't know the identity of the person, but he knows that he must be in a high position.It's not right to look for the master, who knows if the Shen residence is clean?

But if Shen Yulin was asked to pretend to be stupid and let it go, he was not willing.

Now that he knew that the man was destined to be emperor, this matter must turn into a good luck. If he wants to make a comeback, how long will it take if he doesn't act now?

Thinking of this, he had to sigh again that there was a mistake, if this letter had been sent a moment earlier, he would have gone with Su Mingyin to the Tai Tuo's residence to ask for help, but now he couldn't.

According to his prudence, even if there is a half chance of being followed, he is unwilling to take risks.

But... Shen Yulin chuckled, today is such a coincidence.

Early in the morning, the bamboo forest became even colder after the snow, and the two sat and played chess against each other.

There are about 24 people in one person. They are dressed in fox fur with dew, clear eyebrows, pale but not weak, and black first.

The man opposite him had extremely handsome features, a pair of sword eyebrows slanted into his temples, his eyes were calm, his thin lips were slightly pursed, as if he was in deep thought.

A gust of wind lifted his thick ink-like hair, and the hem of the black robe with gold trim was extremely beautiful.

"My lord, is this a little risky?" Xu Wenlang flicked the porcelain cover in his hand, pushed aside the tea leaves, took a sip, and then said slowly, "Although Yulin is smart, but he doesn't care much..."

The person called the lord is also about 26 seven, and it is Yongning Wang Jiqian.

Ji Qian dropped a son, which was close to Heizi Dalong.

"It's just a little smart?" He said indifferently, "At that age, even I can't see it clearly. Don't mention it to others."

Xu Wenlang then sighed: "My lord, even if you intend to take the Yulin exam, you don't have to put yourself in danger... That hidden line is the last card, so it's safer to send the letter directly to Zheng Chaoqiu."

Ji Qian chuckled, and said slowly: "When Zheng Chaoqiu moves, I don't know how many eyes are watching. The little thing is young, even if someone is watching him, he won't be too tight. If he is really stupid, he will at least tell Mr. Shen. "

Xu Wenlang dropped another child, and said helplessly, "My lord is always like this..."

Just as they were talking, there was another sound of fighting outside the bamboo forest.

"Xuan Daiwei can't last half an hour," Xu Wenlang said worriedly.

Ji Qian beckoned, and soon there was a black shadow kneeling beside him with a low voice.

"I have seen my lord."

Ji Qian didn't cry out, and said calmly, "Remove the Xuandai guards, Di Zhaowei will replace them, and... let the Tianjin sixteen guards stand by."

The black shadow bowed and quickly retreated, and soon only Ji Qian and Xu Wenlang were left in the bamboo forest.

As the wind blows, the snow weighs heavily on the cold branches, and some white debris falls down.

Xu Wenlang sighed, the situation on the stone plate was clear, Heizi Dalong was under the enemy's back and forth, and it was impossible to survive.

Reluctantly, he put the chess piece back into the wooden box, "My lord is superb at chess, Wen Lang lost."

Ji Qian withdrew his hands without answering, and looked outside the forest with cold eyes.

☆☆☆☆☆.

Shen Yulin made several detours into Zhaojia Lane, just as he saw a pawnshop of Zhao's in front of him, when he entered, someone greeted him, "Yulin is here."

But it was his cheap uncle Zhao Guoji.

Shen Yulin smiled and said, "Uncle is well, I wonder if mother is here?"

Zhao Guoji yawned, waved his hands and said, "My sister is doing the accounting in the backyard. Today is her birthday. It's better if you arrive earlier."

Shen Yulin thanked him and turned into the backyard.

Favors are useless and expired, but what he came up with was Chen Yanqing's idea. At any rate, Zhao Yanran reached out to him when he was in despair, and since he had just returned to the imperial court, he had no power and was in urgent need of backing, so he probably would not refuse.

What's more, the Jin Shuangbi was originally a hard-core Yongning Party in the history books. If this matter is used as an opportunity for the two of them to seek refuge, it will kill three birds with one stone.

Once you get it, you will show your own ability, and you will be named in King Yongning's heart, and you may go further and enter his account.

Second, to establish a good relationship with Chen Yanqing who will occupy one-third of the world's military power in the future, at least he must retain a great favor.

Sande, use this matter to beat the Rongguo mansion, they have plotted many times over the years, even though their methods are inferior, they still annoy him.

After making up his mind, Shen Yulin lifted the curtain that separated the wind, and was about to enter the door, but the confident smile froze on his face.

His mother is... looking for a stepfather for him?
