Scholar and old attack

While the three of Jiang Jingyuan were brushing up questions every day, Ren Quan reluctantly boarded the carriage to Datong, accompanied by cloth of various colors that he had accumulated in the past half a year.

As soon as the cloth was lifted out of the warehouse, the eyes of several brothers were completely blinded

Even the eyes of Xu Shuizhou and Mu Junxi, who had seen it long ago, were a little shocked. When they saw it was just a small piece, they thought the color of the cloth was very beautiful.

But now the entire courtyard is filled with silk cloth of various colors, which are so gorgeous that they are still faintly shiny under the sun. One can imagine how noble this cloth would look when worn on people.

"Brother Ren, the cloth in your house is absolutely amazing. I have never seen such beautiful cloth in the capital. There must be no problem this time." Lin Xuesong looked at the cloth in the yard, and then at the cloth on his body. Yes, I immediately felt inferior.

Ren Quan was a little proud, "This is the bottom of my box. If it wasn't for the fear of leaking the news, I would have taken it out and made eight or ten sets of clothes for my family."

"It should be so, it should be so." Lin Xuesong nodded again and again, the gap between the cloth and what he was wearing was so big, and the difference could be seen by others at a glance after wearing the finished clothes.

He will come to the door in any crooked way to inquire about it, it's better to keep silent and make a blockbuster.

Seeing that all the cloth had been brought out, Ren Quan came out holding a cloth box made of sandalwood, afraid of breaking a corner in his arms.

"What is this? It looks like cloth." Xu Shuizhou asked curiously.

Ren Quan carefully pulled some soft cloth and put the sandalwood box in his hand on it, and then opened the box, and a piece of cloth that was shining with golden light caught the eyes of several people.

"This is... this is..."

Mu Junxi covered her mouth in disbelief, and didn't even dare to touch it.

"Dragon Robe!" Lin Xuesong has a lot of experience and hurriedly exhaled. Then he looked around and saw that there was no outsider in the yard, so he lowered his voice and said in cold sweat, "Brother Ren, you don't want to die. If it is made of cloth of this color, it is very likely that it will cause death."

Ren Quan's eyes did not show fear, but looked very calm, "As the saying goes, wealth comes from danger, how can you not take some risks if you want wealth, and I made this piece of cloth with my own hands, and I didn't borrow the hands of outsiders. Only this one."

"That's good, that's good. When this matter comes to Datong, don't tell too many people. You just need to show the eunuch a look, and he will know how to do it if you put some money in."

Lin Xuesong patted his small chest, and felt relieved when he saw that Ren Quan knew it well. There can only be one of this kind of cloth in the world. Quan can't escape in the name of rebellion.

Lin Xuesong thought about it, and still felt that something was wrong. If he accidentally leaked the news on the way, he might be robbed before he even arrived in the capital.

As far as he knows, the brothers of the Holy Majesty are a little restless. The princes are not very old, but the Holy Majesty is already in his twilight years. It has been sharpened.

Don't look at the peace inside and outside the imperial court, everyone is waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to make themselves a leader.

Even their Lin family will inevitably be involved, but the Holy Majesty has not yet reached the age of senility, and it is not the time to express it, and everyone is still waiting and watching.

If the crown prince established by the emperor is not to their satisfaction, it is certain that this will involve seizing the heir.

Six years ago, there was a quarrel because of this incident, and an unfavored prince was demoted to the border.

So now that Lin Xuesong is talking about the emperor's face, he is really afraid of the royal family. Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. If he makes a wrong move, he will kill the whole family. That's why his father often said that if you have money, spend it instead of thinking about giving it to your descendants. It is not certain whether future generations will be able to see the sun of tomorrow.

If the house is ransacked and your life is gone, what do you do with the money, if you spend it now, you will die, at least you will have no regrets in this life.

"No, no, Brother Ren, you can't show this cloth when you go to Datong this time." Lin Xuesong tried to persuade after thinking about it.

Mu Junxi nodded in agreement, Datong is too far away from the capital, if there is a mistake, I am afraid that a fool like Ren Quan will get involved.

"Then what should we do? This cloth has been made, so it can't be destroyed." Of course, Ren Quan knew that it was inappropriate to be so reckless, but he had been preparing for half a year, so he had to try it. Hitting the south wall, how do you know that the south wall will not pass.

"Don't worry, let me think about it." Mu Junxi nodded Ren's elm head, and circled around the carriage to think of a way.

Lin Xuesong smiled, "Why don't you ask my family to help, the Holy Majesty still owes our family money, let my father present the cloth to the Holy Majesty, it will be absolutely safe."

But Mu Junxi shook his head and rejected his kindness. Their own family affairs should not implicate Lin Xuesong's family.

What if the Holy Majesty is not easy to get along with and find a reason to punish the Lin family? The Fugui Bank has been in business for more than a hundred years. Over the years, the court has reached out to the Fugui Bank for money several times and owed countless debts. Maybe the Holy Majesty is Waiting for an opportunity to completely end these arrears.

If this is not presented, if something is wrong, wouldn't it cause the Lin family to be buried with their own family.

"Well, my husband, you go to Datong and just show off the other cloth. If you are selected for the tribute election, the servant will ask you to take the cloth to Kyoto. When you arrive in Kyoto, you will have to participate in another round of national tribute elections." , there may be a chance to get in touch with the people around the Holy Majesty, when the time comes, you should pay more attention, bring more money to open the joints, and be sure to give this cloth to him in front of the Holy Majesty."

Mu Junxi thought about it for a while and felt that it would be better for her family to bear the risk.

"If it's not selected, what if there are people who are more knowledgeable than us when we arrive in Kyoto." Ren Quan's sharp eyes flickered slightly, not all things can go as Mu Junxi envisioned.

Mu Junxi sneered, "If there is really a better cloth than ours, or if you can't get in touch with the people around the Holy One, you can burn the cloth, and remember that if you destroy the cloth, don't let others take advantage of it. .”

"I see." Ren Quan nodded, expressing that he knew the seriousness, and that the cloth could be remade after it was gone. If the cloth really fell into the hands of others, their family would be ruined.

"Actually, I don't need to take this cloth with me this time. It's still too dangerous to take the risk. Instead of taking the initiative to attack, why not let the royal family take the initiative to come to the door."

Xu Shuizhou sat in the corridor, watched them discuss for a long time, and finally couldn't stand it anymore, so he spoke.

"The royal family will take the initiative to come to the door?" Mu Junxi's brain was a little overwhelmed. In his cognition, isn't there any genius and treasure that needs to be dedicated to the royal family?

Xu Shuizhou stood up, smiled, pointed to the cloth in the yard and said, "The color of these cloths is already extremely rare, and no one can dye cloth more beautiful than this color. This tribute selection , it is a foregone conclusion that my uncle will get the first prize."

"Think about it, the concubines in the harem are all dressed in such bright-eyed cloth, and even some servants who have received rewards are dressed better than dragon robes. What would the emperor think?"

"Of course I'm holding a breath in my heart, and I'll come to trouble our Ren family when the time comes." Mu Junxi said without thinking.

"No, even if the emperor is angry, he can't judge everyone because of a piece of clothing. He is willing to send someone to proclaim the imperial decree to ask my uncle to make the dragon robe the same color as the one he presented. If my uncle It is a great achievement if it is done, and it is disrespectful if it cannot be done.”

Xu Shuizhou shook his head and denied Mu Junxi's words. He remembered that Jiang Jingyuan told him that even as an emperor, it is impossible to do whatever he wants, and it is even more impossible to kill people for a piece of clothing. , I will definitely think of a reason before this.

The key to the solution of this matter lies in the yellow cloth in my uncle's hand.

"When the time comes, my uncle will first show embarrassment, then pretend to study hard, and finally accidentally make the color of the dragon robe. You must remember that you must say that you made it unintentionally. There is only this cloth in the world. match."

Xu Shuizhou had thought of everything for Ren Quan. Making a dragon robe was not an easy task. When the imperial decree came down, it would definitely attract the attention of many parties. He was afraid that some people would be unfavorable to Ren Quan, so he was asked to hide the formula to death.

"This method is good. When the time comes, we will say that the destiny belongs to us. There is only one horse in the world. It will not only make Longyan happy, but also pick us up." Mu Junxi patted his thigh and applauded, which is comparable to letting Ren Quan go. It's much better to risk yourself.

Mu Junxi stepped forward and put his arms around Xu Shuizhou's slender waist, raised his small face with a charming expression, "Okay, so you are the one who hides the most among us, so you can do it with your little brain. Business must be booming."

Xu Shuizhou smiled slightly, revealing two sweet dimples, with a shy expression on his face, "It's all some wild tricks, it's not on the stage, and I can't be praised by my aunt."

"Hey, you're still modest. If you can't get on the stage, don't you mean I'm stupid like a pig." Mu Junxi pondered for a while and gradually figured it out. Xu Shuizhou was just beating around the bush and scolding him.

Immediately feigning anger, he said, "It's a shame that I cook delicious food for you heartlessly every day. How long has it been since I raised you fat for nothing, and you still beat around the bush and scold me."

Xu Shuizhou blinked his eyes and looked at the sky speechlessly, "I didn't. You said what you said and thought about it yourself. Even if you are an elder, you can't slander me like this."

"The wings are hard, and you dare to talk back to me, the elder. Don't forget that I am your little aunt." Mu Junxi gently scratched Xu Shuizhou's creaking nest, trying to amuse him.

"Speaking of which, do you become my aunt because I married my uncle in a fit of anger last time because of the increase in the price of wine, and then thought of taking advantage of my family in an open and honest manner." The more Xu Shuizhou thought about it, the more he felt so It's the same thing, "I have to say that your plan is very successful, and it immediately lowered the price of wine in your Phoenix Tower a lot."

Mu Junxi scratched Xu Shuizhou's little nose angrily, "I can spend my whole life for that little money."

Lin Xuesong ate the frozen dates and moved to Mu Junxi's side, nodding with certainty, "It's very possible."

"Where are you standing?" Mu Junxi glanced at him.

"I stand by myself hahaha." Lin Xuesong came running with a smile.

----

Anyway, after Xu Shuizhou's words adjusted, a lot of Mu Junxi's melancholy was washed away. He just got married to his uncle, and the young couple is still in the sweetness. It must be uncomfortable to separate suddenly.

Especially when she is still pregnant. Pregnant people have a lot of emotional ups and downs. If they don't have a husband by their side, they will feel somewhat lost in their hearts.

With the company of Xu Shuizhou and Lin Xuesong fighting and making troubles, at least he can take the time to forget the pain of parting.

Ren Quan is also reluctant to part, but he is determined to give Mu Junxi a bright future and not let the Mu family look down on him.

Although Mu Junxi said that he was the one who was being married by a bright matchmaker, he became a concubine without his father's consent. This is a difficult problem that cannot be escaped through the ages.

Mu Junxi has to be ridiculed by the Mu family every day. I heard that the Mu family has now set Mu Junxi as a bad example to other brothers and daughters in the family who are about to marry.

Ren Quan also has his own ideas, he wants to justify Mu Junxi's name, and one day, the Mu family will recognize him again and make him the person everyone envies.

Although he looks stupid on the surface, he actually keeps many things in his heart, but he doesn't show it.

"After I leave, take care of yourself. Don't keep thinking that you are an outsider. I'm sorry to bother my sister-in-law and the others. Wait for me to come back." Ren Quan finally shook Mu Junxi's hand, and stepped on the road without looking back. got the carriage.

"Well, you should pay more attention on the way. If it doesn't work, don't worry about it. It's important to save your life." Mu Junxi also reminded him thousands of times. He felt annoyed when Ren Quan was by his side, but once he left, he would Started to feel uncomfortable.

Ren Quan lifted the curtains of the carriage, and smiled heartlessly, "Don't worry, our family is a robber. If anyone has trouble, I'm fine."

"Let's go." Ren Quan put down the carriage, the smile on his face disappeared, and his face gradually became heavy.

Mu Junxi has been standing in place watching the mighty carriage go away from her, her eyes are still a little reluctant.

"You have to say goodbye after a long journey, Jun Xi, I'll take you to buy things for the children, don't be depressed, it's almost Chinese New Year, Brother Ren will be back in ten and a half months." Lin Xuesong pulled Xu Shuizhou with one hand With one hand, Mu Junxi, took the two of them to go shopping.

"Alright, I'll bring back some things for Jing Yuan, my sister-in-law, and Sister Zhu. Last time, she embroidered the child's bellyband for me, which is very beautiful and delicate."

When talking about children, Mu Junxi's face was filled with a loving light.

"That's right. There is nothing wrong with my mother's cooking, that is, she likes to hide her clumsiness. Otherwise, her outstanding skills are unparalleled."

When Xu Shuizhou heard Mu Junxi boast about the pride on He Yuzhu's face, the two of them couldn't help but laugh.

The three of them were walking back to Jiang's house with their shopping. Mu Junxi slapped his head and looked at Lin Xuesong, "Xuesong, didn't you say you went home with my husband? Why didn't you go back?"

Lin Xuesong didn't expect to be remembered by Mu Junxi after going around for a long time. Didn't she say that she was stupid for three years after being pregnant?

Lin Xuesong smiled, and said a little embarrassedly, "Suddenly I don't want to go back again. You and Xiao Zhou both have babies. As the godfather of the three babies, I have to watch their birth no matter what."

"Your father isn't urging you." Xu Shuizhou raised his eyelids and asked.

"If I don't go back, he can still break my legs. Besides, I'm surrounded by people arranged by him, so why should he worry?" Lin Xuesong felt that it didn't make much sense whether he went home or not. His mother kissed me and mine. He was picked up from a pile of beggars since he was a child.

In the Jiang family, four men were sitting in the study room, and all four of them were writing quickly. Jiang Jingyuan, Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli were writing stereotypes, and Tan Jingyuan was writing a storybook.

This year's weather is much colder than in previous years. Originally, he planned to buy some charcoal to burn at home and write, but unexpectedly, the price of charcoal has also increased, and his whole hand was frozen, which caused his writing speed to completely slow down.

Jiang Jingyuan was in a hurry again, wanting to publish another storybook before the year before, so as to completely reap the lucky money from the wealthy daughters during the Chinese New Year.

He had no choice but to think that Jiang Jingyuan's family had an earth dragon this year, so he simply came to the door directly, and he could rub Jiang Jingyuan's pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Not only did Jiang Jingyuan acquiesce to Tan Jingyuan's approach, but he also asked him to bring his younger sisters here. There are more people so that he can watch over them and make the house more lively. The most important thing is that these children have reached the age of reading and writing.

You can't be a woman, so you don't teach at all.

Staying in a house with earth dragons can at least be warmer.

Tan Yushu is also quite well-behaved, taking his younger sisters to sit in the side room of the study to read and write, coaxing them as much as possible so that they don't cry or make trouble, and disturb the brothers studying.

Hearing a voice outside the door, she quickly put down her pen and went to help open the door.

Lin Xuesong saw a little girl's head protruding from the gate, and looked back at the gate of Jiang's family in surprise. It was Jiang Jingyuan's family, that's right, how could there be a girl.

"Who are you."

As soon as Lin Xuesong finished asking this question, Xu Shuizhou stepped forward and looked at her in surprise, "Yushu, why are you here?"

"Brother Jing Yuan asked us to rub the earth dragon." Tan Yushu's face was scorched by the earth dragon, making his face squirm.

"Yes, this year's charcoal fire is expensive, and it happens that my family burns earth dragons, and so do one person and a group of people." Xu Shuizhou touched Tan Yushu's head, and introduced to Mu Junxi and Lin Xuesong, "This is Tan Jingyuan. My younger sister, Tan Yushu, you can also call her Xiaoshu or Big Sister."

Lin Xuesong was surprised, "That rough guy Tan Jingyuan has such a delicate sister."

"Hey, don't stand at the door, go into the house." Xu Shuizhou interrupted Lin Xuesong with a clear cough, and led them into the house.

Jiang Lu was very sensible and brought a grill for Mu Junxi and Xu Shuizhou, and asked the two pregnant women to warm their hands first. Although there was an earth dragon in the house, the two of them would inevitably bring cold air when they came in from the outside, and it would be hot in a while. Can't get up.

"Xiaolu is so good. I bought candy for you and shared it with my sisters." Xu Shuizhou took the grill, warmed his hands, and took out a bag of candy from the things he bought and handed it to him.

Jiang Lu nodded, took the candy, made a thank you gesture, led Tan Yushu and the others out of the room, and went back to practice their big characters.

Knowing that Xu Shuizhou was back, Jiang Jingyuan took advantage of the fact that there was no water in the kettle, so he ran out to get some air.

Xu Shuizhou filled Jiang Jingyuan's teapot with quick eyes and hands, and said to Jiang Jingyuan with a smile on his face, "Hurry up and go back to study, you can't delay your study."

Jiang Jingyuan was hurt in his heart, bowed his head and said innocently, "Ah Zhou, you are so perfect because you have a flaw."

"Ah?" Xu Shuizhou was taken aback by his words, "Is there something I did wrong? If you tell me, I will try my best to change it."

Jiang Jingyuan looked at Xu Shuizhou gently and smiled, but didn't speak.

"What's the shortcoming?" Xu Shuizhou asked, half of what he said was really to whet his appetite.

"I'm flawed." Finally, after Xu Shuizhou repeatedly questioned, Jiang Jingyuan finally said it out.

The trouble caused Xu Shuizhou to blush, especially when Lin Xuesong and Mu Junxi stared at him with weird eyes, his face was even more blush.

During this period of time, I don't know if Jiang Jingyuan took some wrong medicine. He would say one or two paragraphs of such nasty words every day, and every time he was witnessed by his friends, making him either red-faced or on the way to be red-faced.

"A Yuan, it's not good for you to be like this. Let my friends think of me." Xu Shuizhou pushed Jiang Jingyuan's waist. Really, if you want to go back to the room and talk about it, it's so embarrassing in front of everyone.

Jiang Jingyuan also wanted to go back to the room and talk about it, but how to let his students learn in this way, he was trying his best every day to enlighten Wei Liangjun's lump.

"I learned it, I learned it. It turns out that you, Jing Yuan, still have this hand in hand. I have to record it. It will definitely make many brothers and sisters blush when it is written in the book."

Tan Jingyuan followed Jiang Jingyuan when he came out, watching Jiang Jingyuan's earthy love words the whole time, and was amazed.

"You don't make a sound when you listen to people behind your back, you are a sinister villain." When Lin Xuesong saw Tan Jingyuan, he pulled his face into a long face and spat.

Tan Jingyuan was also taken aback when he saw Lin Xuesong, "Didn't you say you went home, why haven't you left yet?"

"The legs are on my body. I can leave if I want, and stay if I want. You can do anything to me." Lin Xuesong grinned at Tan Jingyuan.

Tan Jingyuan curled his lips, not wanting to be as knowledgeable as a brother, so he lowered his head and took a pen to continue recording.

"Jiang Jingyuan, can't you stop saying these disgusting words, I'm getting goosebumps all over my body." Fang Xinli also rushed out, wanting to smash the inkstone on Jiang Jingyuan's head.

Now he comes to Jiang's house every day to be tortured by Jiang Jingyuan.

Wei Liangjun also nodded, he also couldn't bear Jiang Jingyuan being so obsessed with Xu Shuizhou all day long, please have mercy on them unmarried people.

Now Jiang Jingyuan and Xu Shuizhou are the only couple left in the house. The others either have husbands who are not around, or have not yet married.

It would be unbearable to suffer this kind of sweet crit every day.

"Okay, okay, I won't say it again." Jiang Jingyuan watched everyone's rebuttals, and shut his mouth wisely. His Hao Laogong teaching class was completely disbanded. Unfortunately, none of the students graduated.

"Have you finished writing your storybook? You have to finish the manuscript tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and there are two more that you should focus on writing stereotypes. Why are you running out to be lazy again? Do you still want to be admitted to Jinshi?"

Jiang Jingyuan turned around and looked at the three of them seriously.

"Let's come out to get some air." Fang Xinli said this without any confidence. He is really tired of writing stereotyped essays. He racks his brains to write these days and feels like writing. When will this kind of life be the end? .

Why does his brother suffer this kind of crime alone.

"It's fine if you don't study, just leave it here and watch me and my husband get bored with it." Jiang Jingyuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smirk.

Holding the hand of Xu Shuizhou, whose face was flushed, he said, "Ah Zhou, I want to buy a piece of land."

"what?"

"You're so determined, get out." Everyone in the room replied in unison, they really had enough of this couple, showing their affection in public, they would know if they were about to be struck by lightning.

Especially Xu Shuizhou pretended to be confused by pretending to understand. Every time Jiang Jingyuan asked him, he pretended not to know. In fact, he was like a bright mirror in his heart, and he just wanted to hurt them to death.

The corner of Jiang Jingyuan’s lips smiled happily. It seems that everyone’s words are disgusting, but they are very hardworking in their studies in private. This can’t be done by analogy. He will soon be able to learn from his experience. His good old attack class students can also officially graduate.

The author has something to say: Today is late again, Aunt Jia is always a little restless, please forgive me.

Recently, I found that the pace of this book seems to be a bit slow. After reflection, I will speed up the progress later.
