Chapter 49
The Xie family is a century-old house, and the yards of dozens of people are all simplistic and generous. This is the charm of those upstart families that cannot even make up mountains of gold and silver.
Du Jing had just met Mr. Xie from the main hall, and now he was asking the servant to take him to find Xie Qingfang. He would not come to Xie's mansion often on weekdays. Because of his identity, even if he wanted to be more casual, the mansion would not be able to treat him at will.
The servant led him to Xie Qingfang's study room. Du Jing waved his hand and asked him to retreat. He stood there and waited for a while before Xie Lan helped Xie Qingfang come in with the pale face.
As soon as Xie Qingfang sat down, Du Jing stepped forward and looked at it for a while before straightening up and swaying the folding fan with one hand, while saying curiously: "I thought you were pretending to be sick, but I didn't expect that you have been sick for so long. Could you be hit by an evil person?"
Before Xie Qingfang could speak, Xie Lan sobbed from the side, "It was raining for so long that day, and the injuries on his body had not healed yet and he didn't recognize the way. If it weren't for the young man looking for it, I'm afraid that the young man would be lost..." Xie Lan said in the end, and she was so sad that she burst into tears, as if she was afraid that she would almost lose her young man.
Xie Qingfang: "..."
Du Jing: "…"
Xie Qing covered his hand with his mouth and coughed lightly before saying, "Go and make tea."
Hearing this, Xie Lan hurriedly responded and ran to make tea again.
Du Jing looked at Xie Lan's leaving back incredible ways and sighed: "Xiao Lan is still so cried, why haven't you been flooded with him here?"
Xie Qing closed his eyes and pressed his forehead, and said lightly: "It's almost done."
Du Jing took the folding fan and held it in his hand. He lifted his clothes and sat down with his desk. Seeing that he was still sick and pale, he couldn't help but say solemnly: "You have been sick for so many days and Qiuwei is close to you. What should I do?"
Xie Qingfang opened his eyes and slightly lowered his beautiful eyebrows, and sighed in a low voice: "I have been delaying so many days and have not reviewed my books. I am full of talents in the autumn exam. I am not sure."
When Du Jing heard this, he also folded his eyebrows and said heavily: "But if you miss this time, you have to wait another three years. If Xie Mingsheng comes forward, how can you have a foothold?"
Xie Qingfang remained silent, his eyes faintly revealed a little coldness. His cold and deserted appearance could not tell that there was a little sinister hidden inside.
Seeing this, Du Jing understood it. After thinking about it, he still felt it was inappropriate and said, "But you and Xie Mingsheng are so quarrels. If something goes wrong, Old Master Xie will be the first to doubt you. If you find something, it is possible to directly expel you from the aristocratic race. It's too risky..."
There was a noise outside the door, and Xie Lan came in with a tea tray and placed the tea sets on the table one by one. Xie Qingfang reached out and picked up the teapot, lowered his eyes and brewed a cup of tea before lifting Qingqing's cold eyes, and said lightly: "That's to make a mistake." The tea water vapor rose, blurring his face, making it difficult for people to tell whether it was Xie Qingfang or the other person.
His tea-making expression and posture were the same as that person, so was he hidden hopeless bitterness in his bones like in his previous life...
Yanzhi took a basin of clear water to Dinglou Yanfu, walked to the tree outside the courtyard, and a few yellow leaves fell from above, a small leaf fell slightly in front of her eyes, and gently fell into the basin of water, floating on the clear water, slight waves showing a bit of coldness and coolness.
Today is the ninth day of the 10th lunar month, Ding Louyan's ceremony and the hairpin ceremony, which means that the autumn examination has passed, and Xie Mingsheng also missed this opportunity that should have shined.
In terms of his life, he would rank first in the autumn examination and win Jieyuan. Then he won Huiyuan in the spring examination in February of the following year, and won the top scorer in the palace examination on March of the same year. He passed the third year and became the first person in the dynasty.
Such people who passed the imperial examinations have only been two people since the imperial examinations. One of them is not a few years older than Yanzhi, and now their bones have turned into ashes; the other is Xie Mingsheng, the eldest son of the Xie family.
The emperor cherishes talent, not to mention that among the people who have reached the level of the three-yuan period, he also has the intention to get the Xie family up. After all, the Xie family has a deep roots and leaves are not comparable to other aristocratic families, and its influence is also of great importance. If Xie Mingsheng can be taken for himself, he will be a helper in the court.
Now that Mr. Xie is old and the emperor can control the overall situation, he values Xie Mingsheng's talent, so he doesn't mind that Xie Mingsheng supports the Xie family more.
Xie Mingsheng's birth was shocked by the literati in the world, and he was envious and admired by all the people. This kind of fortune will not be able to be produced for hundreds of years, let alone that he is so talented at a young age, and his career will be incalculable in the future.
Because Xie Mingsheng re-entered the famous family, the Xie family returned to the public's sight. Even the laughing stock after dinner before the Xie family was no longer mentioned. Those mentioned were simply boring compared to the top scholar.
The top scholar is both talented and beautiful and has a famous family. Where does such a person be placed is not something that makes people talk about, so how can he care about the "leftovers of cold dishes" that have been chewed?
Yanzhi was so envious and jealous that she was so angry that she was scattering her eyes. The Dragon King, the nouveau riche, could he be more exaggerated. Did he pile all the rare treasures he had caught in the sea in the Life Po Division? This Life Po Division is written... Tsk tsk tsk tsk... A noble family born in a famous family, a top scholar who was ranked three yuan, and a student valued by the emperor...
This is not for the tribulation, it is clearly for the power of the martial arts. If the intermittent and crazy people in the mass grave know, they would not have to cause chaos in the world before they could stop.
But the road was paved, but unfortunately something went wrong in the middle.
Xie Mingsheng missed the autumn examination. On the way to the tribute court, in order to avoid a little beggar who suddenly came out of the corner, he fell down from his horse and fell unconscious. When he woke up, he had already missed the first test of the autumn examination.
Old Master Xie was so angry that he almost fainted. The beggar was very young and was confused about anything he asked. He just saw someone throwing the leftover chicken legs on the ground on the street. He rushed over and grabbed the chicken legs on the ground without hesitation. He did not pay attention to what was next to him, and he looked very innocent and pitiful.
However, Old Master Xie was eager to love his grandson, and in anger he wanted to take the little beggar to the government office.
Xie Mingsheng stopped him. Although he was unwilling to accept it, he was destined to do so. It was too early or late to come out at that time. It can only be said that God is willing to do so. What if he sent an official? It would take three years to wait, let alone where is the beggar who has a living life in the government?
How many lives can only be forgotten.
When the incident came to Ding Mansion, Ding Shanqun felt extremely regretful, but he could only sigh that the world was impermanent.
But Yanzhi knew exactly how this happened, and there was indeed such a situation in his poor life. It was... a situation set by Xie Qing.
Xie Qing was not lucky enough to participate in the autumn examination with Xie Mingsheng. His talent was mediocre than Xie Mingsheng, but because Ding Louyan didn't want to lose too badly, he used methods to harm him.
He found a few people who didn't know each other and would throw food on the road that Xie Mingsheng must pass, making the beggar habitually think that if he stayed there and waited, he would definitely have food.
When Xie Mingsheng passed by, he threw it down. The little beggar only had food in his eyes. When he saw it, he rushed to the opposite side of the street. At that time, the opportunity was not too much, but it was just right, which made people think it was accidental.
This is what makes Xie Mingsheng use to be kind-hearted. When he sees a beggar, he will avoid it. Even if he hurts himself, he will not harm others' lives in vain.
In his life, it was because Du Jing was well protected, so nothing happened to Xie Mingsheng. Now that Du Jing is gone, Yanzhi can only do it himself.
She could have arrived in time, but was dragged down by Mama Liu's lesson. When she arrived there, the matter was irreversible and she even received the whole place.
Yanzhi almost carried it over when she thought of this. She asked someone to hand it over to Xie Mingsheng early, asking him not to ride a horse to the tribute court, and also confirmed with her own eyes that his personal servant had taken the note, why was he so careless!
Xie Mingsheng's mind was chopped by the hammer, and he told him clearly that he could still ride a horse for her. He just loved riding a horse? Then why did he want those legs? She found a chance to cut him off the other day~
But this Yanzhi cursed Xie Mingsheng for three days and three nights in his heart, but he never thought that the note would fall on Xie Qingfang's hand early...
The author has something to say: Mr. Xie: "God, the earth, why do you want to cut off my grandson's three-yuan grade? Fuck you, uncle!"
Danqingshou: "...Old man, can you pay a little attention to your style... It will be difficult for me to do this..."
ps
Danqingshou: "You guys secretly coax me to spoil the spoiler again...I...I must hold it tightly...hahaha
Oh~ My holiday is almost gone, my heart hurts…”
Old Master Xie: "My grandson's three-year mark is ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh***..."
