Daily life of black skin cub's princess
Chapter 24
The next morning, Lu Xun was woken up by the chattering sound in the courtyard. After a brief wash, he put on some clothes and opened the door. He saw Wu Xun and Xu Zixiu making a fuss, while Chen Jinyi was Sitting cross-legged on the ground beside him.
"What are you doing?"
As soon as Wu Xun turned around, he saw Lu Xun, and said with a smile, "I'm wrestling with Xu Zixiu. He insisted that although he doesn't know martial arts, he has great strength."
Chen Jinyi opened his eyes and snorted, "I don't know if it's strong or not, but it's heavy enough."
Xu Zixiu looked at the big steamed bun that Ning Bo stuffed into his hand, and suddenly hesitated.
Lu Xi rubbed the center of his brows, and suddenly felt disturbed by bringing a group of brats along.
"have you eaten?"
"Wait for you."
"Have you practiced yet?"
"Practice."
"Have you endorsed it?"
"Ah..." Wu Xun, who had been answering fluently, was stuck immediately, looked up at the sky, and Lu Xun straightened his face: "Do you know that the exam is only a few days away?"
Wu Xun's face collapsed: "Then I can't remember."
"It's useless to act like a baby." Lu Xi gave him a sideways glance, "If my grandfather was here, he would definitely beat you."
Wu Xun quickly stuck out his tongue.
"It's not difficult to endorse." After Xu Zixiu finished speaking, he took a bite of the steamed bun. Before he could swallow it, four sharp eyes greeted him, and Xu Zixiu almost choked.
After swallowing the steamed buns for a long time, Xu Zixiu looked at Wu Xun and then at Chen Jinyi: "What, what's wrong?"
Chen Jinyi suddenly said: "You teach me to memorize those military books, how about I protect you until the imperial examinations are released?"
Xu Zixiu thought it was a good deal, nodded in agreement, and then looked at Wu Xun: "Does Wu Shaoxia want to go together?"
Wu Xun nodded hurriedly, Xu Zixiu glanced at Lu Xun cautiously, and said in a low voice, "Could it be that Liu Shao can't endorse?"
Hearing this, Wu Xun's expression became even more dejected: "He won't, because he doesn't have to memorize them at all, and he can basically memorize those books after reading them once. Do you think it's not too much?"
Xu Zixiu: "..." That's really too much!
The corner of Lu Xi's mouth raised slightly. This was a good idea. He also wanted to see if Xu Jingcheng's son had inherited Xu Jingcheng's knowledge.
Because Wu Xun's great cause of endorsement does not need to worry about Lu Xi for the time being, Lu Lu also freed up his hands to deal with some matters that he should deal with.With the imperial examination coming soon, the security of the capital will be the top priority. There will also be a palace banquet held after the imperial examination. Although Anping is helping the queen mother, Anping is still immature in things, and he has to keep an eye on them.
Lu Xi naturally knew that someone could hold the palace banquet properly, but it was absolutely impossible for him to give this person such an opportunity.After thinking for a while, Lu Xi took up a pen and wrote a few letters, folded them and called An Yi: "Send it to Father, Queen Mother, and Anping."
"Yes."
After An Yi put the letter away, he whispered a few words to Lu Xie in a low voice. Lu Xie raised his brows and twitched his mouth: "Sure enough, they are fighting among themselves. Where are the two scholars now?" The real purpose of letting Wu Xun deliberately make noise at the beginning, since the people in Tongyuan pawn shop thought that someone was also eyeing this jade pendant, then the people in the pawn shop calmed down and naturally went to the person who provided the information to him at the beginning, and asked them He also told someone the news, so Lu Xi arranged for someone to go to Diabomb Villa to follow him early in the morning.
"The people from the Tongyuan pawnshop are locked in the firewood room inside the pawnshop."
"Don't worry, there is still some time before the imperial examination. I just want to know how the two of them know the origin of the jade pendant on Xu Zixiu's body."
Perhaps the real cause of Xu Jingcheng's death could be found out. Although Lu Xi had no evidence, he always felt that the cause of Xu Jingcheng's death was a bit strange.
***
After a few days.
Finally came the first day of the martial arts exam.
The martial arts exam is divided into three days. The first day is the literary test. After the test, it is handed over to the civil officials and generals for correction. Those who have blank papers and those who are illiterate are unqualified; the second day is the test of long stack, horse shooting, and carbine , foot shooting, piercing, lifting weight, body and speech, each item is [-] points, and those with a total score of less than [-] points are unqualified; the third day is three rounds of arena competition for candidates who have passed the previous two days.
In the end, the three scores were calculated to determine the three lists of Jinshi, and the top three in the total score entered the hall, and the first, second, and third places were selected by the emperor's own examination questions.
"Xiao Xie, I'm a little nervous." Wu Xun looked at the door of the examination room through the carriage and rubbed his hands nervously. Lu Xie helped him straighten his hair and sleeves: "Don't be nervous, even if you can't recite the original text
Hurry up, remember how my grandfather praised you?Don't panic. "
"Yeah." Wu Xun is a martial artist after all, and he calmed down after sinking into his dantian, "Xiao Xie, wait for me to come out."
"it is good."
Lu Xun watched Wu Xun enter the examination room from the carriage. It wasn't that he didn't want to see him off, but that there were too many people around the examination room.The reason why Lu Xi didn't cover up his figure too much before was because he knew that most officials in those places would not go there, not to mention that there were very few officials who recognized him.
When you meet the king, you bow and kowtow, and you can't see the king.
But it's different near the examination room. All the important ministers who came here today, Lu Xi didn't want to be seen ruining all the plans.
Lu Xi didn't walk around, but waited in the carriage, he took a book to read, and turned the pages, but his mind was not on the book, he couldn't help thinking, he didn't know how Xun'er did in the exam ?Will the topic be done?Actually...it doesn't matter if you don't do well in the exam.
When the exam time passed halfway, An Jiu's voice came from outside the carriage: "Master, someone is blocking the carriage."
Lu Xi frowned: "If we block the way of others, we don't have to fight with them, just get out of the way."
After An Jiu responded, he drove the car and wanted to open this road. Unexpectedly, the horse neighed suddenly, and it was the other party who attacked the horse.
Lu Xi's hand was already on the hilt of the sword, only to hear a kind old man's voice from outside: "My master wants to invite Sixth Young Master to the teahouse for a talk."
"Who is your master?"
"My master's surname is Gao, he is the owner of Tongyuan Pawn Shop."
Gao Hongyi...
Lu Xi sneered, he hadn't looked for him yet, but unexpectedly he came to the door on his own initiative.
***
The teahouse was not far from the examination room, and the attendants led Lu Xi up to the second floor, opened the door, and Gao Hongyi was already sitting inside.
"Liu Shao, long time no see."
Lu Xi said indifferently: "Where did you know my name?" Actually, for Lu Xi, Liu Shao is not a taboo name at all, he is not the same as Liu, but because Lu is the same as Liu, he took the word "Six" for convenience.
"But I only know that your name is Liu Shao, and I don't know anything about the rest." Gao Hongyi smiled, and was not shocked by Lu Xi's indifferent attitude at all.
"You and I have never met each other before, so you know what to do so clearly?" Lu Xi glanced at him, turned around and was about to leave, when Gao Hongyi's unhurried voice came from behind: "I know that you and that Wu Shaoxia is like a brother, even better than ordinary brothers, don't you worry about yourself, don't you worry about him?"
Lu Xi paused. He was naturally not afraid of Gao Hongyi's threats, but the reason why he chose to come was to know what this person's purpose was.
Seeing Lu Xi stop, Gao Hongyi smiled: "Sixth Young Master, why not sit down and talk to me."
Lu Xi turned around and looked down at him condescendingly: "Boss Gao, why not cut to the chase, what do you want me to do?"
"I want you to take the imperial examination."
Lu Xi narrowed his eyes, but his heart was already in turmoil. He never thought that Gao Hongyi would make such a request.
"Boss Gao's joke is a little too big. How can I participate in the imperial examination if I have no fame?"
"Of course I have my own way." Gao Hongyi smiled, "You just need to read the book carefully, I will give you a name card before the exam, and I will guarantee that you can enter the exam room."
"Ten years of hard work." Lu Wei shook his head and smiled, "Boss Gao thinks highly of me. I just don't eat or drink for the remaining half a month, so what if I hang my head on the beam every day?" in front of Gao Hongyi.
"You don't need to worry about these, I will arrange everything."
Lu Xi still shook his head: "This is a risk of beheading, not to mention what good is it for me? And, why me?"
"It's not easy to find a person who is all-rounder in civil and military affairs. Especially, I spent a lot of money and manpower but couldn't find out your background. Naturally, others can't do it." Gao Hongyi took a sip of tea, "And I can It can be seen that you don't want to gain fame."
"I really don't want to be famous, but I don't want to die either." Lu Xi sneered, "According to Dayu's law, practicing favoritism for personal gain is a felony."
"What if I can save your life?" Gao Hongyi took out a jade pendant from his pocket and put it on the table.
Lu Xi's eyes darkened slightly, this jade pendant was no stranger to him, because it was exactly the jade pendant of Xu Zixiu.Lu Xi reached out to get the jade pendant, but Gao Hongyi held it down: "Six young masters are too impatient.
Yes, Liu Shao promised me that it's not too late to watch it, isn't it? "
"Can a piece of jade pendant save my life?"
"Liu Shao, wise people don't speak dark words." Gao Hongyi smiled, as if he was talking about something, "When my subordinates reported to me, they said that the master who knocked over the tiles on the roof of the pawn shop that day used Shaolin Kungfu. If I remember correctly, Wu Shaoxia is a disciple of Shaolin laymen. This jade pendant should be familiar to Liu Shao. Since Liu Shao wants this jade pendant, I think our position should be the same."
Lu Xi stared at Gao Hongyi for a long time. The development of this matter has far exceeded his imagination, but he also knew that he would not refuse.Because only by cooperating with Gao Hongyi to carry out this play, can he know what Gao Hongyi's purpose is?And how many officials in the DPRK have connections with Gao Hongyi?
Just as he was thinking, a bell rang three times outside the window, signaling the end of the martial arts exam.
Lu Xi stood up: "Let me think about it."
"I'll ask my subordinates to send off Sixth Young Master." Gao Hongyi waved his hand, and four shadow figures appeared in the room. If Wu Xun was here, he would know that these were the four people who entangled him outside the city that day.
"No need."
But those four people surrounded them as if they didn't hear them. Lu Xi's footsteps moved slightly, and he passed between the four people and appeared at the door.
The four of them were all taken aback, but the person they wanted to stop had already left the door and went down the stairs.
"... Piaoxue Piercing Clouds." Gao Hongyi sighed, "It's actually the lightness kung fu of the Emei School, which is interesting and interesting."
"Master, could it be that he is a disciple of Emei? But Emei rarely accepts male disciples... Forgive me for being stupid, we have never heard of such a person in the world."
"Ha." Gao Hongyi pushed open the window with his fingers, and looked at Lu Xi who walked out of the gate on the first floor and got into the carriage again, "Although this person is young, he has a very deep city, and the snow and clouds just now were just intentional. It’s just for us to see, he may not even be a quack.”
"Does the master still ask him to do this?"
"Of course." Gao Hongyi shook the teacup, the tea leaves at the bottom of the cup swirled and fell, and a tricky smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "I'm going to muddy this pool of water in the capital."
"What are you doing?"
As soon as Wu Xun turned around, he saw Lu Xun, and said with a smile, "I'm wrestling with Xu Zixiu. He insisted that although he doesn't know martial arts, he has great strength."
Chen Jinyi opened his eyes and snorted, "I don't know if it's strong or not, but it's heavy enough."
Xu Zixiu looked at the big steamed bun that Ning Bo stuffed into his hand, and suddenly hesitated.
Lu Xi rubbed the center of his brows, and suddenly felt disturbed by bringing a group of brats along.
"have you eaten?"
"Wait for you."
"Have you practiced yet?"
"Practice."
