As we all know, a juren who is famous and famous does not have to kneel even when he sees an official in the hall, and everyone must respect him wherever he goes. Handing a famous post to the mansion of ordinary people, it is not enough for others to provide food and drink, so you have to give some money as a gift.
It can be said that you don't have to worry about eating or wearing.
Generally speaking, when gangsters bully the soft and fear the hard, they all have to wink, not everyone in the capital can bully.
Some people have said that this is very unreasonable.
But some people say, who knows who is who when you are drunk? It must have been a booze error.
After all, the gangster who killed people ran away, and didn't catch him in the end.
It has since become a mystery.
In the last life, Jiang Xuening was busy thinking about the election of Princess Linzi, but he didn't have time to take care of everything on the imperial examination field.
It was only after she married Shen Jie about Weng Ang that she heard people talk about it as a pleasure.
Today, I unexpectedly heard this man's madness, and saw this man's madness. After thinking about it carefully, I felt that there might be something to say here.
Push Xiao Shu to have a kiss...
Saying this from Weng Ang's mouth can really scare a bunch of people to death.
When it fell into Jiang Xuening's ear, it seemed to grow roots.
It wasn't until she saw the soaring silver price in the Ren's Salt Works, returned to Jiang's house, slept, and started to pack up the affairs of going to the palace to read after the Chinese New Year, all these words were still in her mind. It swayed every now and then, but it couldn't go away no matter what.
It was noon, and the residual snow had melted.
There are two chess books on the corner of the table next to the window edge.
It was Jiang Xuehui who came to inform her of the preparation, saying that it was during the days when she was not in the palace. Although Mr. Xie led the way to pursue and destroy the Heavenly Sect, he did not teach anything new, but the other gentleman was so excited. It is to teach the big guys to play chess. I am afraid that I will continue to learn when I enter the palace this time.
Jiang Xuening stared at them now, dazed.
Lian'er was lighting the silver notes and several silver coins that were made for Jiang Xuening when she entered the palace this time, and was preparing to go back to the palace to manage the palace servants.
It's just that she pouted while counting.
Then he murmured: "The day you enter the palace, it is not earlier or later, it is exactly your birthday. At noon, someone from the wife's side invites you to celebrate your birthday with the eldest girl, you'd better, give me a word. Push it clean and let them be lively there. I don't know if I see it, I'm afraid that today is just the birthday of a big girl. If it's a slave, whoever asks me to go, I will go, not only go, I also want I'm happier than them! When I enter the palace, the rules are so strict, it's not good to celebrate another birthday..."
Jiang Xuening listened to what she said, and when she came back to her senses, she realized that she was thinking about her birthday.
Why didn't she go in the last life
Indeed, as Lian'er said, not only went, but also had a good time. After all, things were different then than they are now. In the last life, she had ingratiated herself to Shen Jie, and she was the one who chose Princess Linzi in the end, and it was almost a sure thing, so she was particularly proud of her, and she deliberately wanted to find the bad luck of Jiang Xuehui and Meng Shi on such a good day as her birthday, in a few words. Make everyone change color.
Jiang Xuehui looked at her for a long time.
Then he didn't say a word, told everyone else to leave, and got up and said goodbye himself.
What Jiang Xuening hated most was the calm face of this "sister", making her feel like she was punched into cotton, so she chased out and stopped her, and asked with a sneer, "Don't you like Shen Jie? But now, the person that His Royal Highness King Linzi wants to marry is me. Back then, the dove occupied the magpie's nest and held up my identity. After so many years of good life without food and clothing, it is a pity that God has no eyes and still allows you to live comfortably. Then I have to come by myself and let you know the taste of retribution."
Jiang Xuehui was still leaving.
She took a step forward and stopped her.
She finally stopped, looked up at her, and said slowly, "Are you really happy?"
Why are you unhappy
Married the gentle and elegant King of Linzi, and robbed the marriage of her older sister who occupied her identity in the past, and now she is still holding the title of her own daughter, pressing her sister's marriage.
Jiang Xuening felt that he was originally very happy.
But seeing Jiang Xuehui as if unmoved, the idea of happiness seemed to have grown wings and flew away with a gentle wave. On the day when Zhen and Shen Jie saluted and got married, her mind was empty and full of confusion, as if her whole body was thrown into the clouds, and she couldn't touch the ground.
"Second girl, although you won't go to the wife and the eldest girl, but today is your birthday, you still have to ask for one for auspicious intentions." Tang'er smiled slightly, and actually took out a purse from her sleeve. , and then took out a bracelet from it, wearing nineteen small round golden bells with red ropes, the workmanship is extremely delicate, "When you were born in the year before the year, Yan Shizi asked someone to bring it to you, a total of twenty pieces. As for the bell, you will add one when you are a year older, and the slave has already added it to you."
She handed the bracelet to Jiang Xuening.
Jiang Xuening took it over and saw it, only to remember in a trance that there was indeed such a gift: it was her sixteen-year-old, her second birthday in the capital. When he went back, he dragged her to a dark corner of the side alley. The boy's face is red, right? Stuffing this bunch of things into her hands indiscriminately, she turned her head away in embarrassment.
Is that what Yan Lin sent back to the girl
She wondered at the time, and felt a little tacky.
But he couldn't stand Yan Lin's persecution, so he had to wear a bell every year, and put it on on his birthday.
Later, the Marquis of Yongyi fell down, and naturally she never wore this thing again, and over time, it disappeared like Wanniang's jade bracelet.
Now there is a bunch of old things that have not been seen for a long time in the palm of Jiang Xuening's mind, it is actually Yan Lin, who has become a general, who is still in power. The golden bells, which had been missing from her for so many years, were tied to her thin wrists, and she said to her in a soft voice like a dream: "Ms. When the time comes, I will be able to marry the girl with the bell back home. But it turns out that the empress has lofty aspirations, and she doesn’t care about it…”
Tang'er saw that her expression was between sadness and joy, and couldn't help but feel uneasy, and then suddenly remembered that Yongyi Hou's mansion had collapsed: "It's all my fault..."
Jiang Xuening interrupted her: "It's okay."
She let out a sigh of relief, only handed the string of bells to Tang'er, and said with a smile, "Don't you mean to seek auspiciousness? Help me put it on."
In this life, she and Yan Lin have already made it clear that they have broken ties.
There is no need to shy away from this bell.
After all, the young man had some thoughts, she was looking forward to him, and he was looking forward to her.
Seeing her smile, Tang'er felt a little relieved in her heart, and after hesitating for a while, she still put on this bracelet made of golden bells for her.
A slender snow-white wrist, a string of small golden bells.
The red rope at the end was tied into a thin lock, and it fell on the back of the delicate skin, which was gorgeous.
Lian'er couldn't help but praised: "It's so beautiful, I'm afraid only our girls' hands can wear such a look."
Jiang Xuening shook his hand, and a thin sound would be faintly heard. It was not big, but it felt a little light.
She said: "Okay, get ready to enter the palace."
The two girls from the Jiang family are going to study in the palace, and it stands to reason that they should go together. However, Jiang Xuening cared about Jiang Xuehui after all. Prepared a carriage and left two minutes late.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xuening was sitting in the car, just driving through the two streets, and there were several fast horses galloping on the front.
The people on the horse were all dressed in Hu clothes and fur hats, and looked like foreigners.
This is a lively street market, and their speed is not slow at all!
The driver of Jiang's house was startled.
In the panic, he hurriedly rushed the car to the side to avoid it, but the oncoming fast horse avoided it, but the wheel of the carriage hit the hard stones that were propped up on the stalls by a few nearby vendors when they set up their stalls. folded, and can no longer roll.
Jiang Xuening was almost thrown out of the car, and when the car stopped, he frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
The driver was still in shock: "Just now, a few Tatars came on their horses, but luckily they were small and hid quickly, only to damage the car and not hit anyone!"
Jiang Xuening looked towards the other side of the street.
Those horses have long since disappeared, but people on the street turned their backs on their horses, passers-by and traders, all of them scolded and scolded. Obviously, they were all affected just now.
Across the street, Youhuang Pavilion.
Lu Xian sat by the window, frowning at the piano board on the table. It was obviously carved some time ago. The beech wood and wood texture are all excellent.
He just made a blunder on the left half of his palm.
Obviously the knife is crooked.
There was even a bit of unwiped blood on it.
"I remember that this is the best of the few pieces I found for you two months ago. Didn't you already take it for the qin?" Lu Xian looked at Xie Wei, who was drinking tea opposite, with a hint of sound in his voice. Dissatisfied, "An old tree grows for 800 years, and there are only a few good pieces of wood that are cut down. Where can I find some pieces of the same tree or even the same tree for you? Xie Ju'an, when you were playing the qin, you were there. Dreaming, or hitting a ghost? This can be ruined!"
Xie Wei has been occupied with trivial matters recently. Seeing that the snow has finally melted for several days after the new year, he came out of the house and made a special trip to Youhuang Pavilion.
He naturally knew that the wood for the qin was hard to find.
But if it wasn't hard to find, where would one need to work Lu Xian
When he sat with his back facing the window sash covered with snow-white window paper, a small half of his face was buried in the darkness, only the tea cup was put down, and he said, "Take your trouble and look for it for me."
Lu Xianzhen is one of the first and two big.
He knew that since Xie Wei came in person, this qin was more important, so he rubbed his temples. In the end, he still asked the people below to take out the storage account books from the previous months, and searched them one by one. Find a piece of wood that has similar texture and texture to the current piece of wood, so that it can fit on the violin that Xie Wei had cut before.
After searching for a long time, there was no result, but a light flashed in his head, and he suddenly remembered something and said, "You are free to come here today, so Xiao Dingfei has been lawless in the government's mansion recently, you should have heard of it, right?"
This is a thing.
In the past ten days, Xiao Dingfei has done many absurd things, all of which have been passed on to Xie Wei's ears, but when he first took charge of the Ministry of Engineering, there were many things, and Xiao Dingfei was the one who was tossing, so he didn't care about it for the time being. But things in this world can't go too far. It's not a one-time thing to overthrow the Xiao family.
If not restrained, I am afraid that Xiao Dingfei will even forget who he is.
Thinking of this, Xie Wei called Jian Shu in and instructed: "Let Daoqin visit in person in a while, and warn him that the prestige has already succeeded, so don't make too much trouble..."
As soon as the voice fell, there was a sudden noise outside.
It sounded like something was wrong.
Lu Xian, who was checking the ledger, couldn't help but raised his head and listened for a moment with his ears pricked up. He raised his brows sharply, and pushed open the sash next to him, looking towards the street outside: "It looks like the gang who came to Beijing years ago. The Tatars rode their horses in the city…”
Xie Wei frowned when he heard the words, and looked out the window together.
There was chaos down there.
There was still a carriage on the side of the street, and the driver was squatting down to check the wheels, but beside him was a girl wrapped in a red satin cloak wrapped in snow fox fur, standing by and watching, with a big slap and a pretty face, unexpectedly. It's frosty.
Lu Xian also saw it, and couldn't help turning his eyes to Xie Wei.
A group of envoys from the Tartars are truly majestic!
I really regard Beijing as my home.
Jiang Xuening came out of the Jiang Mansion a few minutes later than Jiang Xuehui. If there were no accidents on the way, he would go almost at the time set in the palace. But when I met this kind of thing on the way, the carriage broke down, and people were on the way, and I didn't know how long it would be delayed.
She was about to say that she would hire a sedan chair nearby and enter the palace first, leaving the carriage to the driver to deal with it slowly, but before she could open her mouth, she looked up and saw a person descending from the secluded hall on the second floor across the street, facing the She came over.
Immediately, he was a little surprised.
Jian Shu wore a sword on his waist, glanced at the carriage, and it was indeed broken, so he cupped his hands to Jiang Xuening: "Second girl, are you going to enter the palace? If you get off the carriage, you won't be able to travel for a while. It's windy outside, so it's better to go upstairs. Sit down for a while, sir is over there too."
Jiang Xuening subconsciously glanced at the second floor of the opposite street, and one of the windows was indeed half-open, and she saw Xie Wei's profiled profile at a glance.
After returning from Tongzhou, I hadn't seen him for more than ten days.
Xie Wei didn't arrest her again to learn the piano, plus Xiao Dingfei made a good show after another, she rarely had a good and comfortable year. This time, she is going to enter the palace again, and she thought about it when she was in the car just now, and she must be carried by this young master again when she turns around, and she will be low and small.
Unexpectedly, I bumped into it before entering the palace.
Jiang Xuening suddenly thought of Zhang Zha, he also got a promotion when he came back from Tongzhou, maybe he was busy
Although I was talking like this in my heart, I didn't know why I was still bored.
Xie Wei asked her to go, but it was really cold outside, she naturally had no choice but to refuse, nodded, then explained to the driver, followed Jianshu upstairs and entered the Youhuang Pavilion.
She had come here with Yan, but the layout of the pavilion did not change much.
Jianshu led her to go further inside.
Opening a door curtain, Jiang Xuening saw Xie Wei sitting inside. There was a brazier with silver charcoal in the room. she.
Xie Wei was in the Youhuang Pavilion, and he must have seen Lu Xian.
But now I have not seen Lu Xianren.
Jiang Xuening's gaze flickered from the tea cup opposite Xie Wei that had not yet been taken away, and bowed respectfully: "Hello, Mr. Xie."
When she saluted, her hands were folded around her waist, and the tips of her slender fingers were slightly exposed, but there was a faint sound in her sleeves.
Xie Wei said, "Have you run into someone from the Tartars?"
Jiang Xuening couldn't help but pouted. Thinking of what happened just now, he was still a little angry, and said angrily: "The students didn't completely meet, I really want to meet each other. I'm afraid I'm missing an arm and a broken leg when you see it now."
Xie Wei frowned: "On the 16th day of the first month, what nonsense are you talking about?"
The 16th day of the first month is still my birthday, so I'm not taboo, why are you taboo
Jiang Xuening slandered and didn't like him very much, but he didn't dare to contradict him, so he had to bury his head and whispered: "Oh."
Xie Wei could see that she was not convinced.
After staring at her for a moment, he suddenly said: "I have been in contact with Xiao Dingfei these days, watching him toss the Dingguo Gongfu, and even carry many of the gifts from the palace to give you, you are very happy to receive it, and you are happy to see it. ?"
Jiang Xuening's heart was stunned, but he didn't expect Xie Wei to talk to himself about this, and suddenly raised his head.
But when he met Xie Wei's bright eyes, he lost his courage for no reason.
She thought that there was no need to hide Xie Wei in this matter.
He simply told the truth and said frankly: "Anyway, he is not a good guy. The students are really happy to see him tossing the government. Not only are they happy, but they also cheer for him. The more troubled the government is, the happier the students are. "
At the end of the day, it's all about Jairus.
When he said something, he looked a bit tricky and domineering in the past, and his delicate eyebrows were even a little squeamish when he frowned, and he didn't even bother to cover it up.
Xie Wei looked at her for a long time, then said abruptly, "You don't pretend to be in front of me now."
Jiang Xuening was stunned.
But after thinking about it, he smiled like a self-deprecating smile, and said, "Don't you know what kind of virtue I have earlier? You are too lazy to pretend in front of me, why should I pretend to you?"
They didn't know each other until now.
Four years ago, the mask was removed in the barren mountains and valleys, and both of them had seen the worst side of each other. Now, the more gentle and virtuous they pretended to be, the more sage and gentlemen, the more hypocritical they became.
So she was more presumptuous towards Xie Wei than towards others.
Wouldn't it be polite for Xie Wei to speak to her in private
It was only after the words were spoken, Jiang Xuening's neck became cold, and he suddenly realized that he shouldn't have said these words. The experience of going to Beijing with Xie Wei that year should be buried in my heart, and I will not mention the first half of the sentence.
This is Xie Wei's taboo.
Sure enough, she slowly raised her eyes and met Xie Wei's extremely calm gaze.
Jiang Xuening inevitably felt that he was going to be unlucky, and he had to bow his head under the eaves, so he took the initiative to admit his mistake first: "It was the student who spoke the wrong thing again."
Xie Wei looked at her for a while, and said, "Hand out."
When Jiang Xuening heard these two words, her scalp was numb. She still remembered the last time she was beaten when she asked for a silver note to reach out to Xie Wei. She remembered the pain.
Xie Wei said: "What do you say when you take Xiao Dingfei's things?"
Jiang Xuening now forgot the stubborn words he just said, and shouted: "The student is a good at tossing people. He took the initiative to ask me to teach him. Bar?"
Xie Wei sneered: "Can you still teach people if you are so skilled?"
Jiang Xuening wanted to talk back, but seeing that his face had sunk a little, it was more frightening than before, so he couldn't help but shuddered and stopped in time.
There is a bamboo ruler on the side of the table.
Not the kind used by the teacher in the school, but the kind that Lu Xian invited back when he went to the temple to listen to the master's lectures.
Just in time.
Xie Wei picked it up and still said to her, "Reach out your hand."
Jiang Xuening knew that she was still going to be beaten, she closed her eyes and finally stretched out her hands.
Xie Wei really wanted to give her two strokes so that she would have a long memory. But there was a string of small golden bells tied around the outstretched wrist, and it made a crunching sound when it swayed, and the red string made the skin paler.
There is a faint old scar on the inside.
The bamboo ruler he lifted did not fall.
Jiang Xuening waited for a long time, and felt uneasy in her heart. Before the expected pain came, she could not help but quietly open her eyes.
Xie Wei asked her, "Is today your birthday?"
Jiang Xuening's eyes lit up, thinking that it is impossible for a person like Xie Wei to know her birthday, she should have asked this after seeing the bracelet on her wrist, so she turned her head and said miserably: "Yes, today The student is a small birthday star, but in the rush to enter the palace, the birthday has not passed, neither eat nor drink well, no one makes a bowl of longevity noodles, and the master will punish me! The students all know wrong Now, I don’t dare to do it again in the future, or I will forgive this time because of the miserable birthday?”
Xie Wei did not speak.
Jiang Xuening became a little bolder: "You default?"
She retracted her hand.
But at this moment, with a "snap" sound, the ruler in Xie Wei's hand fell mercilessly and hit her in the palm of her hand, causing her to retract her hand and grasp it, looking at him angrily. past.
Xie Wei's voice did not fluctuate in the slightest, and said: "Today's punishment will not be reserved for tomorrow. Xiao Dingfei is such a frivolous and sloppy dude, if you let me know that you have had close contacts with him, it will not be so easy to forgive you. already."
Jiang Xuening was startled and scared, and looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Xie Wei threw the ruler, but did not look at her, picked up the tea, raised his voice and said to the outside: "Jianshu, ask Daoqin to take out the memorial in my car and send her to the palace."
Jianshu came in and asked Jiang Xuening to go.
Jiang Xuening didn't react, thinking "Xie Wei is cold-blooded and ruthless, and actually hit me on my birthday", and got into Xie Wei's car with his hand that had been hit with a red mark, still angry I can't.
Daoqin drove directly towards the palace.
When Jian Shu came back, he saw Lu Xian, who had avoided the secret room before, but he didn't know when he came back, only looking at his husband with those intriguing eyes.
Jian Shu thought for a moment and said, "Kaoqin is going to send Ning Er girl, so the subordinates will go there in person?"
Xie Wei put the tea in his hand, but didn't drink it.
He looked at the ripples on the tea soup for a while, and then said, "No need, let him make trouble."
Jianshu was stunned.
Xie Wei frowned and seemed to be a little disturbed. He loosened the tea cover and let it cover the tea cup. With a loud beating, he put the tea cup back on the desk and said, "It's always me who is in my pocket, and nothing serious will happen."
Sword Book: "..."
Lu Xian: "..."
Hehe, now you're in the loop again, who said earlier that he wanted to restrain Xiao Dingfei and tell him to stop doing things
