Chapter 104 The Scholar and the Flower Demon 18
Although Xiang Sheng did not tell the scene he was thinking about, Yan Lang knew at a glance that he hadn't understood it yet. Fortunately, Yan Lang had thought that this little brother was showing off inside but not showing off outside.
Facing this situation, what else can Yan Lang say? Naturally, he could only make a mysterious look and smile calmly, "You only need to tell Mr. Lian that it is enough to put your position and identity in a correct way. I believe Mr. Lian will understand."
Yan Lang saw Xiang Sheng away, who was still confused, and Xiao Tan from the next room immediately jumped out curiously and ran to Yan Lang, "What were you talking about just now? Did he come to ask you to help the young master of Lian? I heard those people say it is dangerous to take the team!"
After saying that, he looked distressed, as if he was trying hard to think about a good idea for Yan Lang.
They stayed in the inn these two days. Xiao Tan’s favorite thing is to secretly go downstairs to tell stories by telling the story by the teacher, so naturally he heard a lot of historical stories.
Yan Lang pursed his lips and smiled, raised his hand and grabbed Xiao Tan's earlobe. Looking at the person in front of him, he felt his whole heart softened. There was no thought of fooling Xiang Sheng just now, "Don't worry, they will help me if I don't stand."
The reason why Yan Lang said this today was that the third prince and Xiang Sheng would not be angry because he refused to stand in the side and serve allegiance.
No, not only will he not be angry, but he will even show his support when he shows his loyalty to the court and the emperor in the future, because in this way, he can also show the emperor that they are not fighting or robbing and only hope that their own country can be more stable and prosperous.
Secondly, naturally, I want to get help from the third prince, Xiang Sheng and even the Xiang family without taking sides.
Since he was going to become an official, Yan Lang naturally didn't want to be a small official for the rest of his life. If he really became a little person with no background backing, he would not be bullied at will. Once something happened, he would even be taken out by the superiors with a random attitude, and he would lose his head and lose his lives for no reason.
If you don’t want wealth and power, you don’t value fame and fortune and look down on the world, but you don’t want to be completely inequality with you.
If a person with ability wants to live an ordinary life, it is worthy of admiration.
But if a person who is incompetent told others that he wants to live an ordinary life, that would be a joke to deceive himself.
Yan Lang knew that his advantage over the emperor was that he was from a poor family, but this alone was not enough to give him a high enough starting point to take off.
At this time, the third prince who had been in the capital for many years and his loyal follower Xiang Taifu's family were a very powerful helper.
If he stood in the front line from the beginning, he would not say that he might annoy the emperor and other princes. Even with the third prince, Yan Lang would lose his unique advantage. After all, the third prince and Xiang Shengnian had a lot of noise at Fahua Temple before. Yan Lang did not believe that Xiang Sheng's words today were only said to him alone.
So Yan Lang will never stand in the side, and in the future, he will never stand in the side.
Although Xiao Tan still didn't understand very well, he seemed to be very powerful when looking at the scholar, so he looked up at Yan Lang with admiration, and unconsciously grabbed Yan Lang's sleeves with both hands.
Because there was a red line between the two, Xiao Tan also relied on Yan Lang to cover up the demonic energy. Therefore, even if Xiao Tan deliberately restrained the demonic energy, there was no change for Yan Lang.
At this time, Yan Lang's eyes were a little uncomfortable and red on his face. Recently, the fragrance on Xiao Tan's body became more and more intense and more clingy.
Of course, Yan Lang's mind was so erratic, but it was not just because of this. Every time Xiao Tan approached, Yan Lang couldn't help but remember the scriptures left to him by the abbot who had sent him by Xiaoxiaomi when he left Fahua Temple.
Yan Lang was thinking about taking the palace examination first, so he did not look through it in time. But last night, Yan Lang slept for a night when he just came back and woke up at night. He thought of studying hard for more than ten years, and now he finally finished the exam. His mood was inevitably overwhelming and he couldn't continue to sleep.
So Yan Lang stood up and lit a candle, and when he had nothing to do, he opened the scriptures.
Yan Lang never expected that the scriptures would be the Buddhist psychopathic scriptures, commonly known as the Happy Buddhist scriptures, which teach how men and women can obtain great freedom and great liberation. Yan Lang was so blushed that he couldn't sleep.
So the next morning, Yan Lang got up early to avoid Lin Song and quietly washed his underwear in the backyard. He was almost discovered by the curious Xiao Tan.
After this incident, Yan Lang's feeling of discomfort naturally became heavier, but he couldn't help but feel imaginative.
But I don’t know what the abbot left behind, just love the nerves and make him get what he wants? What’s the reason?
Let’s talk about Xiang Sheng’s departure and did not go back to his own home. Instead, he took a detour to a small courtyard with ordinary appearance.
Xiang Sheng waited inside for a short while before he saw the third prince. Xiang Sheng did not delay and quickly repeated what he had heard from Yan Lang.
The third prince was awakened when he heard the beginning and was involuntarily shocked and sweated coldly.
I didn't expect that it was not that they were not as smart as Yan Lang, but that they were just smarter and they couldn't see clearly in the situation.
"Third cousin, what do you mean by Liang Jin? I asked him what we should do in the future, but he said something plausible. Did he deliberately perfunctorily treat me?"
Xiang Sheng now thought about it and his third cousin were probably not going well. If Yan Langzhen understood these things, he would not choose to board their ship, and it seemed that he would understand it.
The third prince smiled and shook his head, "No, Liang Jin has already explained everything clearly. As expected, Liang Jin has great talent."
First, he talked about his normal father and son, and then he talked about Yan Lang's own loyalty to the court and even the people of the world, and even told him not to act frankly and frankly. Isn't this the other party's suggestion that he had already named him?
This reminds him to treat his father as normal as a father and son in private. The father may not be a kind father, but he cannot be a filial son with a sincere heart.
When facing official affairs, the third prince should first consider personal gains and losses, but should focus on the world, regard the country as his own country, and treat the people as his own people.
Remember, it is "one's own home" rather than "one".
As for being honest, the third prince also understood that Yan Lang reminded him that his father had been sitting in that high position for decades, and his eyes were not clear at the sight of people, so if he planned to take this path, he would first deceive himself.
When lying, only when you make yourself believe that the lie is true can others believe it.
Thinking of this, the third prince couldn't help but sigh with his hands on his back. Unexpectedly, they were confused by the wealth and clouds in front of him, and almost thought that the thorns were really a garden full of flowers in front of him.
The third prince did not expect Yan Lang to say this, but there was another hidden intention, which was to let the third prince put the country and the people first.
Perhaps the third prince was just for his own purposes at the beginning, but the emperor seemed to be able to live a long time. By the day when the third prince really succeeded, patriotism and love for the people would probably have been integrated into his bones and become his habit.
Yan Lang hopes that the next monarch is a patriotic and people-loving emperor who deserves his life to devote. If the third prince unknowingly changes like this, he will be at a disadvantage, and Yan Lang is willing to do his best to help him even if he fails.
Seeing that the third cousin had already understood, Xiang Sheng no longer had to worry about whether he understood this matter.
The second day was the third day after the palace examination, and the day of the announcement. Lin Song ran to the tribute court before dawn in the morning and waited for the announcement.
Yan Lang felt very calm because of the information revealed by Xiang Sheng yesterday. He spent breakfast in the room with Xiao Tan. Then he went back to the room and buried himself in the soil to bask in the sun. The other stood at the Eight Immortals table and dipped in water on the table to practice calligraphy.
I don’t know how long it took, but it was just bright outside, but I heard the joy of playing gongs, drums and suona all the way. The waiter in the inn had already run outside to watch the fun. Pedestrians who passed by the roadside also stopped curiously. The person who had nothing to do and needed to be busy even followed the news agency, preparing to see which masters were on the list this year.
Originally, the waiter just stuck his head out at the gate where eight doors were fully opened and watched the fun, but he didn't expect that the announcement team would get closer and closer. When he finally walked outside their inn, he stopped.
The official with a big red belt wrapped around his waist and a festive smile on his face stepped forward alone, bowed to the waiter and asked politely, "This waiter, is there a Lord Yan Langyan, Chongyang, Nanchuan?"
Although the appointment letter has not been issued yet, those who are on the gold list are all serious officials, so the officials are naturally very respectful.
The waiter was stunned, then widened his eyes and gasped for a while with excitement. He quickly nodded and said, "Yeyouyouyou", while turning his head and calling the shopkeeper at the top of his throat.
The shopkeeper was originally dialing the bill behind the counter, but just now he saw the news officer walking to the entrance of their inn. He suddenly felt a shock and had some guess in his heart.
At this time, the shopkeeper was already trembling with excitement and jogging out, hunching his legs and bowing, and then he asked seriously.
It was confirmed that there was a Tanhualang here. The shopkeeper couldn't help but clapped his hands and laughed a few times. Then he grabbed the time to let the waiter arrange the man in to serve him. He raised his long gown and ran to the second floor guest room, and then respectfully knocked on Yan Lang's door.
Yan Lang heard the noise downstairs and the joy of stopping when he walked downstairs to their inn. He understood in his heart that the shopkeeper knocked on the door. Yan Lang had already packed up his clothes and shoes. He opened the door and was bowed deeply by the shopkeeper with fear and excitement on his face. "Congratulations to Lord Yan, you are Tanhualang in Jinbang High School. The guys who are sending the wedding downstairs are already waiting for you!"
Yan Lang smiled and helped the shopkeeper, "Thank you, my father-in-law, and we are happy together."
When the shopkeeper heard the word "Tongxi" and was surprised and quickly thanked Yan Lang again, because he understood that Yan Lang's so-called "Tongxi" means that he didn't mind letting the shopkeeper use his reputation to attract business.
Every time during the big exam, some inns in the city are willing to ask questions for candidates to answer. Those who answer well can get free food and accommodation, and even wealthy inns are willing to provide certain funding.
After all, I want to use the least resources to make this connection before I can fly high, and secondly, it is also a good manner to make my inn famous.
Isn’t the top scholar buildings in the capital now that there were top scholars who lived in their inn?
Although scholars know that the imperial examinations value personal knowledge and literary talent more, luck is also very important at some point.
Some people are famous talents at least, but every time they take the exam, they will encounter unlucky things of all kinds and bad luck. They waste time again and again, one year, two or three years, and delay a few more times. They will never be resentful for the rest of their lives, but they can only stop there.
So whenever the family is better, they like to stay in an inn like Zhuangyuanlou when they arrive in the capital, and they will have a meal, climb high and worship Buddha. As long as there is a legend that is filled with the aura of Wenquxing, it is a place that scholars like to go.
The shopkeeper wanted to ask for an inscription, but he knew that this was not a good time, so he bowed slightly with joy on his face and diligently led Tanhualang downstairs.
The leader of the leader who was originally sitting downstairs saw it and quickly stood up. At the same time, the joy that had already stopped sounded again. The leader of the leader of the leader of the leader came forward with a smile.
When Yan Lang just reached the steps left, the official officer had already raised the letter of good news and raised his voice to announce good news.
Yan Lang looked at the good news letter, which contained the letters of the Hanlin Bachelor’s Bachelor’s College, Yang and other examiners, saying that this admission was invigilator for their chief examination and had a certain responsibility nature.
Then there was Yan Lang's own birthday, his grandfather's name, his father's name, age, and his own name, etc. It can be said that a book of enrollment has honored three generations.
Yan Lang felt a lot of emotion when he thought that his grandfather and father's names were all on it. He just received the good news. However, the shopkeeper next to him had already actively acted as Yan Lang's "suspension", and he gave him money and greeted him enthusiastically.
Seeing this, Yan Lang only smiled and accepted the shopkeeper's attentiveness.
The official officer of the news agency naturally did not dare to stay for too long. He only said that someone would come to pick them up later. In the afternoon, the three top scholars, Tanhua, could parade on the streets, and then they would go directly to the palace to receive the emperor's gift banquet.
