Global Update [Quick Transmigration]

Xiao You walked slowly on the country road. On both sides of the road were acres of farmland and villagers' self-built houses. The desolate withered grass in winter was blown around by the wind and scattered scattered on the road, making this place a bit extraordinarily desolate.

"What's there to go shopping in this place," Zhong En couldn't help muttering, "My lord, let's go back to the station and wait. I see there are people selling food over there. At most, just buy some and wait for the next train to come."

"You, you're just too edgy." Xiao Er said, "It's hard to take you out once, if you say such disappointing things again, then you can go back by yourself."

Seeing that Xiao Er had reached this point, Xiaotong closed his mouth obediently, but his expression was still a little sullen.

Xiao Er looked at him from the corner of his eye, sighed, and shook his head.

If Zhong En was not the son of an old servant who had followed him for many years, he would not be so gentle with a little boy. Unfortunately, this child is not born to study, no matter how hard he teaches, he can't learn it, and his temper is very impetuous, so he can only do something. Chores for a living.

"My lord, there is a yard in front!" As he walked, the little boy suddenly found a house that was different from other buildings in Fengyun Tea Village, and his eyes lit up immediately, "This should be the place where the village chief lives, right? We can go in Sit down!"

However, Xiao Er noticed the manuscripts drying in the open space over there. He walked over and lowered his head to take a look. The relaxed expression that he didn't care about gradually disappeared, and his eyes gradually widened due to surprise and surprise.

He raised his head and asked Jing Xinglan who was sitting over there: "You wrote this, little friend?"

While Xiao Er was reading, Jing Xinglan was also secretly observing the pair of master and servant.He has a good eye for seeing people. Although he doesn't know Xiao Wei, he can recognize at a glance that this must be a great scholar from a certain academy, because only people like them wear wooden plaques on their waists, replacing wood with jade, meaning Follow the gentleman to serve things, not to be moved by money, fame and fortune.

So after hearing Xiao Er's question, he smiled and said to the old man, "This is written by my lover."

"spouse?"

Xiao You was taken aback by this title, because Daliang didn't say that, but the literal meaning is not difficult to understand.He was about to be amazed at how interesting the women in the countryside are, when he saw a thin, tall, black-haired young man in a tie-dyed black and white jacket coming out of the yard over there, like a The red-crowned crane that only stopped in the mountains and forests glanced at them with those dark eyes, as if they didn't see it, and quietly turned to Jing Xinglan's direction.

Jing Xinglan gave him a "I don't know" look back, he was about to ask, who knew that Qiao Jing would come over now.

"You...could it be..."

Xiao Er glanced back and forth between them, Qiao Jing didn't speak, Jing Xinglan nodded generously: "Yes, that's what you think."

Qiao Jing thought that an elderly person like this would not be able to understand, but Xiao Er came back to his senses after being taken aback for me, nodded with a smile, and stopped bringing up this topic, but asked Another thing: "I wonder if this little friend has read a book called "Yuncha Mountain Dwelling"?"

Qiao Jing: "...read it."

"For some reason, when I saw the words you wrote, I immediately thought of this book by Yan Heqing." Xiao Wei sighed, "This is the realm I have been pursuing all my life. Sure enough, people who really stay away from the hustle and bustle The mood is always the same.”

"You're absurd." As the saying goes, a lie requires countless lies, so Qiao Jing had no choice but to lie, "I just... simply like this book, so I intentionally imitated Yan Heqing's writing style."

Jing Xinglan, who was standing beside him, let out a muffled snort similar to holding back a laugh, and Xiao Wei turned to look at him suspiciously: "Why, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing," Jing Xinglan said seriously, "I think what you said makes sense."

Xiao Er didn't doubt that he was there, and asked with a smile: "Then why don't you invite us in for a sit-down? If you meet someone like you, you'll understand!"

The little boy took a deep breath, and immediately reminded in a low voice: "My lord, you are going to enter the palace later, so you must not drink alcohol!"

Although he tried his best to keep his voice down, Qiao Jing and Jing Xinglan still keenly grasped the key word "entering the palace". They looked at each other with stiff expressions.

Because just ten minutes ago, the palace sent someone to report that Emperor Liang would come to Yuncha Village today to "have a light meal" with them. No one knew what this man was thinking. Just come, the key is that they didn't even say hello in advance.

What if it hits...

Forget it, Qiao Jing thought silently, it wasn't them who were embarrassed anyway.

"What a disappointment." Xiao You glared at him angrily, snorted, and walked into the yard with Qiao Jing, shaking his sleeves, "Forget it, no more drinking. Is there any tea?"

"Yes," Jing Xinglan said, "The specialty of Yuncha Village is green tea. I'll make a pot for you."

Several people sat down on the chairs in the courtyard, because Jing Xinglan moved the table used for eating and drinking tea outside to dry books, and he also moved an extra bench in front of Xiao Er to place teacups.

Xiao Wei laughed, but he didn't recognize that the man who poured tea for him was the current prince, and Jing Xinglan didn't mean to declare his family background: "You guys are really living in poverty and happiness."

There is not even an extra table, isn't it poor to a certain level?

In fact, Qiao Jing just didn't think it was necessary. There were usually only two people in the family. One table was enough for eating, and there was another desk for writing. Jing Xinglan planned to leave all of them to Yuncha Village after they left, so they really didn't care about these extraneous things - they couldn't take them away anyway, and it was useless to care.

But in Xiao Er's view, these two young people are a rare stream in this era of chasing fame and fortune.

He chatted with Jing Xinglan for a few more words, and the satisfaction in his heart was almost written on his face.Although Xiao Er was more interested in Qiao Jing, but Qiao Jing had too little to say, so Xiao Er could only take the next best thing and communicate with Jing Xinglan, who seemed calmer and calmer first.

As a result, the more we talked about him, the more entangled he became. Jing Xinglan spoke well, had a wide range of knowledge, and in some respects had very unique insights.Xiao Wei felt that such a person would be able to benefit one party by being an official, but he couldn't bear to disturb their peaceful life, so he kept trying to find out whether Jing Xinglan had the intention of becoming an official, but in some respects he shared the same aspirations with Emperor Liang. .

"Lord Xiao is joking," Jing Xinglan dismissed his temptation lightly. Xiao Er had already voluntarily declared his family name before. As a well-known Confucian in Daliang, it is impossible for Jing Xinglan not to have heard of his name, "You Don’t you want to be an official in the court? Otherwise, you wouldn’t be sitting with us in this small courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing.”

"Well, I'm different from you, I'm already old, I just want to write a book quietly, and I have no other plans." Xiao You sighed, "But His Majesty has been urging me to become an official. I can't refuse any more."

But when he said these words, four large characters "I'm not happy" were written all over his face, and the look of sighing made the little boy sweat coldly: "My lord, you'd better say a few words less..."

Xiao Wei is unwilling and unsuitable to be an official, even a little boy can see it, and he doesn't know why His Majesty is so persistent, and even invites him over and over again.

Qiao Jing looked at the sky, and there was a hint of anxiety in his eyes. It has been nearly an hour since the messenger from the palace came to report. Calculating the time, if Emperor Liang came by horse-drawn carriage, he should be here soon, right?

"Master Xiao," he felt that he could no longer keep this hot potato at home, and said, "I'm sorry for the poor hospitality, but I will have guests at home soon, please forgive me."

Naturally, Xiao Er would not blame him, after all, he was the one who came to the door suddenly first.He heard the embarrassment in Qiao Jing's tone, smiled and put down the teacup, and was about to get up to say goodbye, when suddenly a male voice full of sternness came from behind: "Imperial brother, long time no see! I miss you so much!"

He turned his head, and at a glance he saw Le Dian Dian riding a horse towards Emperor Liang, followed by a frightened eunuch who was also riding a horse.

"........."

The two people who had made an appointment to meet in the palace, now one is sitting in the yard, the other is riding on horseback, looking at each other, speechless, and at the same time, a thought popped up in their hearts——

No, why is your Majesty here? ? ?

And it only took Xiao Er a second to realize that Emperor Liang was calling "brother" at someone just now. He suddenly turned his head, stared at the helpless Jing Xinglan, and said incredulously, "Are you...Jing Xinglan?" Lord?"

Jing Xinglan: "Yes."

But what is more important now is not Jing Xinglan's identity. Emperor Liang stared down at this cunning and treacherous old fellow, and asked, "Shouldn't you be on your way into the palace?"

"Your Majesty said so," Xiao Er asked immediately, not to be outdone, "but why are you here, Your Majesty?"

Emperor Liang was silent.

Could he say that he was dissatisfied with Xiao You's refusal of the imperial court's invitation several times, and he wanted to let the other party frustrate the old guy's arrogance for a long time, so he came to Yuncha Village to find Jing Xinglan for tea? ?

This pair of monarchs and ministers had ghosts in their hearts, and they both knew each other's thoughts, so they skipped the topic tacitly, and Qiao Jing went back to the room to move a chair for Emperor Liang.

So the chat continued.

But who knows, Liang Di just sat down, and the first sentence he said to him was: "Your "Yuncha Mountain Dwelling" is well written. I have read it several times. After living in the village for a while, I find it more interesting. Have you considered continuing to publish a second volume?"

Not long ago, Xiao You, who thought this place was outstanding, was almost numb after being attacked one after another. His eyes fell on Qiao Jing, who had a stiff face, and he twitched his lips and asked, "You are Yan Heqing?"

Qiao Jing: "...Yes."

Good, he thought deadpan, now there are three awkward people in the yard.

"Why, don't you know?" Emperor Liang was surprised for a moment, and then he burst out laughing, and the gloom in his chest disappeared immediately, "Xiao Er, Xiao Er, thank you for still giving me a hand. In his reply letter, he said that he only wanted to live a fairy life like a layman in Yuncha, but now that the fairy is sitting in front of you, you can't recognize him!"

Because Qiao Jing wrote the book "Dwelling in the Cloud Tea Mountain" with the No.1 name, and the name of the protagonist did not appear in the whole article, readers called the protagonist "Yuncha Layman" after publication. , even Yuncha Village, a small place just named by Emperor Liang, gradually began to spread its reputation far and wide.

Hearing Emperor Liang's words, Xiao You was a little embarrassed, but he was worthy of being a well-known Confucian, so he quickly adjusted his mentality, and laughed at several people: "What your majesty said is that the minister is getting old. Confused."

"Oh, please don't," Emperor Liang hurriedly said, "We are not in the relationship between monarch and minister. Xiao Er, tell me the truth, do you intend to become an official when you come to Beijing this time?"

The reason why he misses Xiao Er so much is that Xiao Er served him as an aide to the crown prince for a period of time when Emperor Liang was young. The reason why Emperor Liang professed his minister in front of him, and Emperor Liang trusted him quite a lot.

Xiao You opened his mouth: "Your Majesty, I..."

He hesitated to speak, Emperor Liang also saw his attitude, shook his head and said: "If that's the case, then I will give up. But do you know why I have to let you come to Beijing this time?"

"Excuse me, I don't know." Xiao You lowered his eyes and said, but he still didn't change his words.

"If I don't find a reason to let you go to Beijing and stay in that area, it will be dangerous in the future." Emperor Liang wrote lightly.But in just one sentence, Xiao Wei's pupils constricted in shock, and she almost fell off the chair: "Are you saying that the Prince Qi Palace—"

He was only halfway through speaking when he suddenly remembered that there were not only himself and Emperor Liang here, he immediately closed his mouth tightly, but his face was ugly to the naked eye.

"You don't have to worry about these things." Emperor Liang patted him on the shoulder and looked up at Jing Xinglan, "It's just right, brother, I didn't just come here to play with you this time, let's go back to the palace with me. I have some things to entrust to you, and I can only entrust them to you."

Naturally, it was impossible for Jing Xinglan to shirk such a big event, but Qiao Jing still couldn't help frowning, and looked at him with some worry.Probably seeing his worry, Emperor Liang said: "Don't worry, it's just to let him catch spies and spies, and he won't be allowed to leave Beijing."

Qiao Jing whispered, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Afterwards, Emperor Liang chatted about the contents of his book, but Qiao Jing was a little uninterested. After answering a few questions with great energy, the eunuch who had been standing behind Emperor Liang cautiously reminded: "Your Majesty , it's getting late, it's time to go back to the palace, otherwise the empress and the others will have to worry again."

"Okay." Emperor Liang also knew that he wanted to give the young couple some private space, so he stood up tactfully, "Then you chat slowly, and I'll go back first."

He didn't say anything more to Xiao Er, but after Emperor Liang left, Xiao Er remained silent for a long time, frowning tightly, with a dignified expression.

After a while, he asked Qiao Jing, "Little friend Yan, do you mind having more neighbors?"
