fox kidnapper

Chapter 8 Xue Wancheng

"The son of heaven values ​​heroes, and articles teach you; everything is inferior, but reading is high. Young people must study hard, and articles can stand up; the court is full of nobles and nobles, and they are all scholars. . . . . Take subjects in one fell swoop, when your parents are not old; brocade clothes return Hometown, it’s a man.” Xue Zun closed his eyes, opened his mouth slightly, and let out a sleepy voice.

Fan Mo was lying beside him, and the two of them had slept in the same bed for many days.Ever since she lived in a shelter from the wind and snow and opened a sky-shaped room, Xue Zun only realized the embarrassment when she fell asleep at night.But I can't turn back, after all, I said I only need one room, although I secretly wanted to save money for Fanmo, not to mention that I can't open two rooms because I have a soft mouth and a short hand.

That night, when I turned over the ink, I saw his face was troubled and hesitant.He laughed twice. "What? Are you still sleepy?" After finishing speaking, he began to take off his outer robe, and threw it on the soft couch beside him.Fan Mo, who took off his coat, has a thin and strong waist and broad shoulders that are so peerless. A spinning figure is lying on the bed, his slender legs are stacked together in a lazy Erlang posture, and his toes are shaking. Ah shivering, an indescribable smell of temptation.Naturally, Xue Zun couldn't see the fox's deliberate temptation, but just clasped his hands, in a state of ecstasy.Just turn over the ink and say. "Are you shy? It's not like you and I have never spent the night together. Why are you shy?"

His question was too frivolous, even a bit over the top.Xue Zun fixed his eyes on each other, only to see Fan Mo's arms on the pillow, his face turned slightly to look at himself, his long legs were placed on the bed and one foot was forced out of the bed, the small bed seemed to be unable to accommodate his tall body. body.Xue Zun raised his upright and beautiful nose and said "No."Then move over slowly.He walked over, rolled the ink in a circle, and then patted the empty space, with a smug smile on his face. "Come on, lie down and sleep."

Seeing Xue Zun taking off his shoes and going to sleep with his clothes on, he immediately reminded him evilly. "Take off your outer robe, it's so thick to wear at night, it's so uncomfortable to turn over."

Xue Zun sighed lightly and imperceptibly, his face bulging.Take off the white clothes slowly when you are ordered in danger.As soon as the outer robe was taken off, he turned over the ink and saw Xue Zun's back facing him. The thin and narrow waist was like willows fluttering in the spring breeze. If he grasped it gracefully, he would definitely be slender than a woman.Two perfectly symmetrical butterfly bones protrude from the back due to thinness, as if they are about to fly out of the window through the thin cloth.There are a few strands of black hair lingering on the back of the porcelain white neck, and the white ribbon on the head hangs down the long hair to the back, with delicate shoulders and a straight back, sitting on the edge of the bed like a blank white porcelain doll.When Fan Mo looked at it, his mouth felt parched, and a flame shot up from his lower abdomen, which made the roots of his ears blush and hot.

He raised his hand and touched his earlobe, feeling puzzled.Why am I so weirdly obsessed with this stupid human being.Recalling that night in the wild mountain forest, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so he lay on Xue Zun's body and fell asleep. He slept very peacefully that night, although Xue Zun was in great pain that night and only thought it was just a nightmare.

Fan Mo looked back in embarrassment, Xue Zun had turned off the lights and lay down.The two fell asleep together.Xue Zun's sense of shame was quickly overcome by exhaustion. After all, he was a human being. He was already exhausted after walking the mountain road for a day, so he naturally fell asleep.Fan Mo propped his head on one hand, staring at the peaceful sleeping face of the man in the darkness.

Thousands of thoughts suddenly withdrew, and Fanmo looked sideways at Xuezun who was muttering and sleeping very sweetly, remembering that he had picked him up after the palace exam a few days ago, and he had been absent-minded for three days, he must have attached great importance to that exam.So that I think about it every day and dream at night.Xue Zun frowned and wrinkled his forehead, with fine sweat mottled on his forehead.He was still raving in his sleep.

"...It's full of scholars...Sir...I...can I..."

gentlemen?

Sitting up with Mo Mo and eyebrows raised, he looked down at Xue Zun's fair face.Who is he calling in the dream?gentlemen?What is that worthy of being kept in Xue Zun's heart?

I don't know why he was furious in his heart, and he spread his palms with the urge to wake Xuezun, he leaned over and gritted his teeth and stared at Xuezun's face that didn't know him, with the anger of tearing his flesh.Just as he was about to fan Xue Zun to wake him up, he heard a knock on the door, hurried and irritable.Fan Mo roared out angrily. "Do you want to die?"

The smart man outside the door shivered in fright, but insisted on speaking. "Fox officer, calm down! You little brat! It's not for anything else, just to announce the good news!"

"Happy?" Fan Mo was surprised.

But at this moment, the drowsy Xue Zun was suddenly awakened by Fan Mo's roar.Hearing Ling Lizi say "Happy", she immediately sat up with a clear mind and leaned against Fan Mo's shoulders.He quivered his lips and asked the people outside. "What did you say? What joy? Where does joy come from?"

Accustomed to observing words and expressions, the flattering and cunning Lizi immediately piled up smiles, clapped his palms and said with a smile. "Congratulations! Congratulations to Xue Keguan Palace Examination High School! You won the first place! Xue Keguan, oh no, you are the number one scholar now!"

He continued to flatter. "Our little shelter from the wind and snow is a blessing from several generations of cultivation. Having a No. [-] scholar living in us really makes the small shop flourish, as if it has been plated with gold!"

"What did he say?" Xue Zun turned his head to look at Fanmo with disbelief, hoping to get an answer from him so that he could find out whether it was a dream or not.

"Congratulations, Xiao Xuexue." Fan Mo stroked his hair very naturally. "You are already the number one student in high school."

Xue Zun took a deep breath, only to feel his eyes darken, and his body fell into a soft place.

"Following the heavens, the emperor ordered:

On the [-]rd day of the fourth month of the Xiangfeng Year, in the imperial examination of the Hall of Talents, a talented scholar from Hezhou, Xuezun High School, won the first place in the ranking. I hereby declare the whole country to celebrate together.Because of his rich nature, hardworking and submissive, graceful and pure, gentle and gentle, restraining himself and internal rules, Guangde contains chapters.I love it very much.

Today, he canonized as the No. [-] Scholar, bestowed with the word Wancheng, and given the residence in Zhushan Zhuangyuan Mansion, and specially conferred the post of editing and writing by the Imperial Academy.

This is it. "

In front of the snow shelter inn, there were countless black heads.An old man in a Chinese dress is holding a scroll of black ox horn imperial decree. The golden imperial decree is silk brocade embroidered with fine silk. There are light purple auspicious clouds rolling in the center, moon-white auspicious cranes dancing, and silver five-clawed dragons hovering at both ends. .The old man finished reading the imperial decree aloud, flicked the dust in his hand, and laughed shrilly. "Congratulations to Xue Zhuangyuan, and please the Zhuangyuan Lang to take the decree to thank the emperor."

Xue Zun, who was kneeling on the ground stupefied, was thrown on the head by a stone thrown by a flipper standing behind the crowd in the distance, and Fang panicked and kowtowed to thank him. "Xue Zun thank the emperor for your kindness, thank you for your kindness, father-in-law." After receiving the decree and getting up, the father-in-law smiled like an amiable grandfather. "Xue Zhuangyuan's high school in one fell swoop is really powerful. The slave has other imperial edicts to announce, and the champion will be sent away without trouble." Xue Zun said immediately. "Eunuch Wang, go slowly." Eunuch Wang nodded, and the group of people left in a hurry.

The crowd immediately rushed up to congratulate her like a tide, as if they had caught a peerless treasure and were reluctant to let go.Xue Zun thanked those unfamiliar faces one by one, and after a long time, Ling Lizi waved the group of people away like flies.He graciously supported the snow bottle and entered the gate of the Snow Shelter Inn.After entering, there was another congratulations.When the voices died down, Xue Zun saw Fan Mo sitting at a table with a smile that couldn't go away.

Fan Mo said. "Xue Zun, Xue Wan is successful. Congratulations." Fan Mo is pleased that Xue Zun got his wish and won the Toad Palace, but after all, it is a childish game of human beings. Of course he doesn't want to bow down to the emperor, and he hates the emperor's self-indulgence in giving Xue Zun a word , He felt as if a lump was stuck in his throat, and he was suffocated.Therefore, He Xi's words are also yin and yang.Xue Zun couldn't hear the sarcasm in his tone, but just sat down and laughed with him holding the imperial edict, as if in a dream. "The emperor values ​​me so much, it makes me flustered."

The officialdom is complicated and treacherous, the organs are exhausted, and people's hearts are unpredictable.Xue Zun, a person like white paper, fell into the stinky mud of officialdom, wondering if he would emerge from the mud unstained as usual, just dumbfounded.Fan Mo knows that the human heart is the most complex and changeable, and the human government is even more turbulent, with ups and downs, and what is right and wrong is sealed by the emperor's words.Fan Mo is worried about Xue Zun, worried that he will be squeezed out and humiliated by others, and even more afraid that he will be framed by others and he will not be able to turn himself over.So sigh. "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

He has absolutely no lies, as long as he stays by Xue Zun's side for a moment, those ordinary people will not be able to hurt him.

Xue Zun beamed with joy. "Ah Mo, if you move to Zhushan Zhuangyuan Mansion, I want you to go with me..." After thinking about it, I was afraid that I would be Meng Lang. Fan Mo is not a person without a home, he will go back to his house, why do I stay like this? Follow people and don't leave.So he said again. "If you're not in a hurry... would you like to..."

"I am willing." Fan Mo said without waiting for him to finish.

Xue Zun suddenly felt a burst of sweetness in his heart, a strange sweetness.

The next day, Xue Zun entered the palace with the other two "No. [-]" and "Tanhua" to meet the emperor.Today's "No. [-]" is Gong Baohe, the eldest son of Gongcaishu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites. "Tanhua" is Fang Haikuo, a well-known talented scholar in a small county in the south. Both of them are editors of the Seventh Rank Imperial Academy.Xue Zun was compiled and compiled from the Liupin Imperial Academy. His main responsibilities were to master the actual records, record the words and deeds of the emperor, lecture on scriptures and history, and draft manuscripts related to ceremonies.It seems that the three of them will work together in the Imperial Academy for a long time in the future.

After the three of them met the emperor, they also participated in a series of activities such as roll call, thanksgiving, banquets, paying homage to the sages and teachers, erecting monuments, and compiling the records, which could only be held after passing the palace examination. It was extremely honorable.After everything was busy, the three of them walked down the long ladder carved with dragons and jade all the way in court clothes. Gong Baohe glanced at Xue Zun, feeling bad.He pretended to be familiar with a smile. "My lord Xiuzhuan is really favored by the emperor. My editor and I don't have the honor of being bestowed by the emperor. Congratulations, lord."

What he said was flawless, and he just wanted to provoke Fang Haikuo's jealousy towards Xue Zun, but Fang Haikuo was humble and didn't think there was anything wrong.Immediately said to Xue Zun. "My lord Xiuzhuan won the No. [-] Scholar in the palace examination. It is only natural that the emperor values ​​him so much. Why should we envy the honor that does not belong to us?"

"You!" Gong Baohe turned his head and glared at Fang Haikuo, feeling that he was stupid and out of touch.Likes to be pushed over the head.He cursed secretly in his heart, even if a poor scholar who came from a poor village is a treasure trove, he would be mud under his feet, unsightly.I also thought of Xue Zun showing his sharpness in the palace examination and flexing his muscles.Because of this, the position of No. [-] scholar that should have fallen on him suddenly fell away overnight.I just remember that my father and the other eight examiners took turns looking through the papers submitted by everyone on the marking day, and selected ten best ones to submit to the emperor for imperial approval. Because the snow-covered papers were too dazzling, many examiners remembered them. After choosing this name, my father wanted to change the paper and change it to his, but he couldn't change it. He was afraid of causing suspicion, so he had to settle for the next best thing. He chose a paper that was second only to Xue Zun and changed the name on the seal, so that he could fill in the paper. After the list was released, he won the "second place" position.

As for the sadly unlucky scholar who was robbed of his fame and fortune and lost his reputation, he didn't bother to take care of it.

Seeing the two bickering over trivial matters, Xue Zun couldn't help persuading them. "It's just a word. The emperor gave it to me because I had a name but no words. Both Gongbianxiu and Fangbianxiu had their parents pick up the characters themselves when they were weak. This is something that Xue Zun couldn't ask for. Please also Gong Bianxiu and Fang Bianxiu must not get angry and hurt each other's friendship."

Fang Haikuo laughed. "Master Xiuzhuan, worry too much, I'm not a small-minded person." After finishing speaking, he said. "I'm weak, I'm afraid I can't accompany you two more." After saying that, he left in a huff.

Xue Zun turned his back and said. "Editor Fang, walk slowly."

Gong Baohe stepped forward and sneered. "Master Xiuzhuan is very considerate. You are not angry or angry when your colleagues who are one level lower than you walk away in front of you."

Xue Zun laughed. "What's the matter. He's just informal. Don't take it to heart."

"Really?" Gong Baohe said coldly. "If I commit the following offense, will Master Xiuzhuan not be angry at all?"

This kind of arrogant and unreasonable words, except for what Xuezun heard from Fan Mo, it was the first time he heard others say such words, not to mention that this person in front of him is from a family of officials and officials, so he should be the most polite.Seeing this situation, Xue Zun slowly realized that Gong Baohe was not an easy person to get along with. Of course, he had the capital of arrogance and arrogance for many years.So I changed the subject. "It's getting late, I'm not joking with the editor-in-chief of the palace. I'll leave first." Xue Zun already gave Gong Baohe enough face, attributed his rudeness to a joke, and didn't show that he was fussy. It's really wrong for Tian to have a quarrel with others.Xuezun restrained himself and returned to courtesy, he was approachable and sober at the same time.

Gong Baohe saw Xue Zun wearing a luxurious champion robe, disappearing from his eyes in high spirits, frowned, gritted his teeth, and said bitterly. "Poor scholar, is he worthy of robbing me? Just wait, I will tell you to go back wherever you came from!"
