Chapter 40
King Ning\'s Mansion has been in decline for a long time. In recent years, there is no one in the court. It has long become a residence that officials in the capital do not want to communicate with. For many years, no one cares about it.
For the old lady who once came from a glorious family, this is naturally an unbearable thing!
Now she finally saw some hope from Lu Huan, and she rarely started to pretend to be a good elder who cared about her grandson\'s studies.
He even set up a garden in King Ning\'s Mansion, named Jingyuan, which was given to Lu Huan as his study room.
The old lady\'s thoughts, Madam Ning Wang and Lu Yuan, both brothers were all in their eyes, secretly frustrated, jealous, but helpless with Lu Huan.
However, in King Ning\'s Mansion there is the old lady\'s value, outside of King Ning\'s Mansion, but not.
On this day, Mrs. Ning Wang saw that it was raining under the eaves. It was the rainy season in early spring. So she asked the mother next to her: "My father was ordered to go to the Cloud Province to supervise the palace a few days ago. Has he come back in these few days?
"Mrs. Hui, the Shangguan Bachelor just returned yesterday. Because I came back late, I didn\'t send anyone to inform you. I went to the Imperial Court early this morning. I think I should have gone to Imperial College for class now."
Mrs. Ning Wang didn\'t know what was thinking, her face showed a bit of pride, her nails were pinched into her palms, and she said coldly: "Get the carriage ready for me. I\'m going back to my father tonight."
Suxi accompanied Zizai to study at Imperial College. In addition to setting up an arrow target for the fifth prince to grind the inkstone, Zai Zai\'s ninth grade companion is fairly easy to read.
In this way, more than ten days of peace have passed.
Zai Zai is extremely diligent. Apart from practicing and reading until late at night, he also rushes to study at other times. At five in the morning, before dawn, he got up and continued to read the book he had not finished reading last night.
It was not until the morning sun rose that he hurriedly freshened up, took a few steamed buns from the hands of people outside the courtyard, and ate them while walking, and rushed to Imperial College to continue school.
For the past ten days or so, Suxi didn\'t know that he would wake up every morning before the chickens crowed.
It\'s just that every time he goes online, he sees that his scroll has been ripped a little, and there are many more dense comments, which is very strange.
Obviously Zai Zai only saw one-third of the book last night, so why did suddenly finish it tonight!
Did you finish it while sleepwalking? !
And Zai Zai seemed to be afraid that she was worried, and never told her, until Suxi here on the weekend, in the early morning time in the game, made a surprise attack, only to realize that Zai Zai was so diligent to this point!
It makes the old mother feel ashamed!
Suxi didn\'t know why Zai Zai worked so hard, but just felt it. In the past ten days, Zai Zai\'s simple strokes of milk dumplings are obviously thinner and have become thin milk dumplings.
That night, she couldn\'t help but let the cubs stop and relax, don\'t study first, go horse riding outside the city.
Lu Huan felt the wind staying between her eyebrows, as if she wanted to press her eyes on the acupuncture points, so she couldn\'t help putting down the scroll, and her ears became red.
Before that, Lu Huan wanted to gain more knowledge, but wanted to get rid of his predicament in King Ning\'s Mansion as soon as possible.
But now he forgets to sleep and eat, but more is to become stronger as soon as possible. Have the ability and a way to find a suitable body for her, so that one day she won\'t have to float like this.
In addition, the water in the capital is deep, and there are guns and arrows everywhere. He must have enough self-protection ability to protect her in the future.
The reason why the books he read in the morning was kept secret from her, because they were all books about ghosts and gods.
Before finding a way, Lu Huan wanted to stop telling her, and surprise her when he found the way.
Of course, Suxi didn\'t know that the villain in the game had already thought so long. Between her homework, she was still thinking about how to complete the task seven that was appreciated and supported by General Zhen Yuan.
She took advantage of Zai Zai\'s kung fu, went around the street market outside the palace to see if she could find any breakthrough.
At this moment, suddenly saw a group of cartoon villains near the notice board on the Long Street, discussing the words posted on the notice board.
Suxi took advantage of playing the game and directly zoomed in on the notice board, and instantly saw what was posted.
It turned out that riots/turmoil occurred in the northern border recently due to frost and drought. Neighboring countries are eyeing them, Yan Country is not strong enough, and General Zhen Yuan\'s mansion is being ordered to recruit troops. Recruitment is not only a warning to neighboring countries, but it is indeed a preparation for the repression.
This recruit entered the army, obviously it was just a small pawn, and couldn\'t reach General Zhen Yuan at all.
Zai Zai is no longer the concubine of King Ning\'s Mansion in the past, and now he is also a companion of the fifth prince from the 9th rank. There is definitely no need to enter the military camp through this channel.
But Suxi still took advantage of the small cartoons surrounding the people not paying attention, tore a piece of notice paper, switched the screen to the cub\'s house, and hurriedly slapped the notice on his desk to show him. .
Zai Zai stopped the writing brush that was writing the remarks, glanced at it, and said, "When I was leaving school yesterday, I also heard about the recruitment of General Zhen Yuan’s mansion. There have been frequent disasters in the northern border recently. If I want to make a contribution, I should definitely go there. This is the fastest way to gain a foothold in the imperial court. However, the method of entering the barracks through recruitment is not very desirable, it is too detour."
Suxi thought the same as he thought.
Suxi is having a headache. There is no way to start this task seven.
I heard Zai Zai again: "However, I heard a few days ago that there was a vacancy in the position of Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of War. This position is very suitable from the fifth rank. However, General Zhen Yuan and the Ministry of War Shangshu have no impression of King Ning\'s Mansion. Great, if no one recommends it, it will be very difficult to enter the Ministry of War."
Suxi didn\'t expect that the cubs had not been idle for the past ten days when they entered the Imperial College. They had passed through the imperial college\'s sons, and had roughly understood the relationship between court officials.
She couldn\'t help but admire it very much. It was too worry-free. What else would she need to help herself?
"Don\'t worry, I have a solution." Lu Huan looked at the void in the sky, with a slight smile in his eyes, "You only need to accompany--"
It seemed that he realized that the word ‘accompanied’ was too warm and tender, and the boy’s ears suddenly became reddish and his voice stopped abruptly.
He changed his words and said, "Just stay with me."
Although Suxi didn\'t know what he could do, but Yongan Temple was only assisting by himself, and the main things were done by Zai Zai.
So Suxi is very trusting in Zai Zai.
Seeing the confident appearance of the cub, the old mother\'s pride suddenly came to life, and the drum of war suddenly ignited in her heart.
Cub, hurry up and start a career!
...
With heavy rains in Beijing, the greenhouses of the farm began to take effect, and the crops planted began to sprout quickly.
And Suxi switched the interface from time to time to help turn over the soil at will, exchange some 100% effective fertilizers and other things from the mall and throw them in.
Chang Gongwu was wondering every day why the crops in the greenhouse were more amazing than the growth of other farms, so he had to ask Lu Huan to ask for some silver taels, increasing the number of 13 workers to 26.
The farm is working well, and Lu Huan’s side, because of heavy rain, can’t go out to ride and shoot. The subjects taught by Imperial College have also been adjusted, and what is taught today is court etiquette.
This class is very boring. Except for the low-key and well-behaved second princes and the princes who had to come to class, the playful and lustful third princes and the self-esteem fifth princes have always skipped this class.
Although the fifth prince did not come, Lu Huan, who was the companion of the fifth prince, had to come, record his homework on the scroll, and give it to the fifth prince.
The sons of the elders and the sons of high-ranking officials who came to the class are also sleeping, anyway, Lu Huan of King Ning\'s Mansion has notes.
During this period, several bachelors from Imperial College have been very fond of the companion of the Fifth Prince. Because of his diligence and intelligence, he can answer everything well.
But today the situation seems to be slightly different.
A few of the world’s sons who were sleeping all of a sudden suddenly heard a slap on the podium. The Shangguan Bachelor who taught the etiquette had a pale face, and said: "Lu Huan, stand up for me!"
Suxi, who was off the screen while doing homework, was also taken aback. What happened?
She tugged at Zai Zai\'s sleeve.
Lu Huan lowered his eyes and glanced at his left sleeve, indicating that it was OK.
He raised his eyes and looked at the Shangguan Bachelor on the podium. There was a bit of coldness in his dark eyes, and there was no expression on his face, and he did not refute, and he walked straight out of the Guangye Hall.
It\'s still raining heavily outside!
A few princes didn’t know what was happening suddenly, and a person next to him who was not asleep whispered to his ears: “Shangguan Bachelor just said that Lu Huan handed in a blank paper, so he was furious and punished him to get out of the rain.”
"How is this possible? You and I will both turn in a blank paper, and Lu Huan can\'t hand in a blank paper. If he answers, the test paper must be perfect."
Another person muttered weirdly: "The two King Ning\'s Mansion sons who came to the Imperial College to study with us are mediocre and stupid. Although their third brothers are concubines, they are brilliant. King Ning\'s Mansion\'s IQ is probably It\'s all on this bastard."
One figured out a little way, his mind turned faster, and his neck was long enough to whisper to the first two people: "You don\'t know anything, the Shangguan scholar is the father of Princess Ning——"
"Oh." The first two reacted.
This turned out to be a family affair.
No wonder that when Shangguan Bachelor came in today, he kept staring at Lu Huan who was sitting behind him, his eyes seemed to wish him to be stripped.
Although the princes recently copied Lu Huan\'s homework very happily, they couldn\'t say anything about this kind of thing. Who made Lu Huan fail to have a good baby and become a bastard?
Ugh. Looking out again, seeing Lu Huan being driven out alone, the two who called him to the brothel last time were a little unbearable.
The outer eaves of Guangyetang are extremely narrow, and you will get half of your body wet no matter how you stand.
But at this time, no drop of rain fell on Lu Huan.
He raised his head and glanced, and saw that a huge leaf appeared above his head inexplicably, like an umbrella, hung on the eaves, just to block the rain above his head.
The raindrops dripped down the huge leaves and became beads.
Lu Huan felt a solid warmth in his heart.
He took Juye and lowered his voice to explain to void: "Princess Ning went back to her natal house two days ago, and this Shangguan bachelor is her father. Don\'t lift the leaf, your hands are sore, and don\'t get caught in the rain. , Come in."
Mrs. Ning Wang kept gritted her teeth about Lu Huan\'s attention from the old lady, looking for a chance to retaliate. She temporarily could not find a way to target Lu Huan, so she let her father come.
Suxi took the left hand of the cub, and gestured, oh, I see, he is also squatting under the leaf.
But she was a little depressed in her heart, Zai Zai was so good, how could someone always think of ways to bully him. Had it not been for me to go online while doing homework today, Zai Zai would definitely be raining again.
She feels a little bit painful, but when she sees the cub\'s head slightly tilted up under the eaves, looking at the pouring rain, a steamed bun\'s face does not seem to be depressed, but leisurely and peaceful.
Lu Huan had been exposed to countless rains in the previous fifteen years, but it was a little absurd and ridiculous to say it. The rain today made him feel happy.
He felt that the ghosts were still beside him, but he seemed to feel depressed because he was being bullied, and he didn\'t even hold his hand. He whispered: "Don\'t worry, I have my own way. I will go back and talk to you."
There is a way to fart. Suxi outside the screen switches the interface to the Guangyetang. Seeing that the old man of Shangguan Bachelor is still talking about etiquette on the podium, he feels a fire in his stomach, no matter how little it is. Is there any way, she must first teach the old man a lesson.
The Shangguan Bachelor was about to teach the content of the next part, suddenly the eyebrows moved, and he felt a "creak" on the top of his head.
He raised his head subconsciously, but suddenly his pupils shrank, and saw the tiles on top of his head crumbling under the heavy rain for several days or what, anyway, by coincidence, the beam above his head suddenly couldn\'t bear the weight of the tiles.
"Bang—" The glazed tiles crashed and fell suddenly. He was almost scared to death, and yelled to avoid him, but he stumbled and smashed his bag.
After the tiles fell, the heavy rain outside suddenly smashed down the sky, and instantly washed away the dust from the tiles on his body, and poured him into a soup.
He almost fainted.
At this time, the sleepy princes in Guangyetang couldn\'t sleep anymore, staring at the scene in front of them dumbfounded.
Someone hurriedly yelled: "Pass the doctor! Shangguan Bachelor passed out!"
The chaos in Guangyetang turned into a pot of porridge, and Lu Huan still stood there, even if he didn\'t go in, he knew what had happened. He tried his best to strain his expression as he wanted to laugh, but he still couldn\'t hold back, so the corners of his eyes and brows were bright.
He himself has long been used to making things difficult, and he has not felt humiliated, but has already thought out other ways to eliminate the troubles.
But every time she seemed to be particularly distressed and angry for him, she immediately wanted to retaliate for him.
Thinking about it now, before two people in King Ning\'s Mansion called the kitchen haunted, and Lu Wenxiu inexplicably pushed the old lady into the stream, I am afraid she was also teaching those people for him.
Some warmth grew in Lu Huan\'s heart, and he couldn\'t help asking in a low voice, "Are you on my left or right?"
Suxi outside the screen finished dealing with the old man who bullied Zai Zai, and then switched the screen to the outside of Guangye Hall. Seeing Zai Zai asking herself this, she casually pulled Zai Zai\'s left hand.
Then saw Zai Zai changed the huge leaf from his right hand to his left, and sent it to the left, as if the two were actually standing under the umbrella.
she was:"……"
Poor cub, the old mother is not under the umbrella.
Zai Zai looked to the left, as if staring at someone who didn\'t exist in the void.
Somehow, it seemed that he felt too close, and his ears gradually stained red.
So he tensed his expression, moved his feet quietly, and stood a little to the right. Then he held up his chest and tried to make his side more handsome.
Suxi: "..."
As a result, Zai Zai accidentally got half of his sleeve drenched in the rain, but he didn\'t care.
Suxi was a little worried. When asked and answered before, she accidentally misled the cub, making him think that he was a ghost by his side.
Suxi didn\'t think it was a big deal, anyway, he was always by his side to accompany him, inside and outside the screen, it was no different from ghosts.
But until recently, Suxi quietly discovered that Zai Zai began to read some books on "Divination Asking the Spirit", seeming to find a way to stand for her...
Suxi was startled when she saw it.
He is happy now because he still has sustenance in his heart, thinking that one day she can appear in front of him.
But once, one day he finds that this is impossible, will all his desires be broken?
Suxi was a little uneasy, but tried his best not to think about it. There are more important things to do.
This Shangguan scholar and Princess Ning colluded with each other, I\'m afraid they won\'t stop there, and the quest seven that Zai Zai wants to gain the appreciation of General Zhen Yuan has not yet arrived, and there are still a lot of things that need to be resolved.
She waited for Zai Zai to finish school and returned to the Chai Yard with the oil-paper umbrella. She hurriedly spread out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, and then tugged Zai Zai\'s sleeves, meaning to ask him at Imperial College that he had a way, yes any solution? Tell her quickly.
Lu Huan dropped the words "Shangguan", "Liuzhou", and "Cloud Province" on the paper, and said to his side: "You know what did you do when you are a bachelor in Shangguan and will take up a post at Imperial College in the future?"
Suxi didn’t know, she planned to open the system to check it, but she saw Zai Zai continue: “He was originally from the Ministry of Industry. In the first three months, the emperor wanted to see the snow in Cloud Province and ordered him to go to Cloud Province to supervise the construction of the palace. Up."
"Cloud Province itself is a land of perennial snow. It takes less than three months to build the palace. When he returned to Beijing, he ordered someone to send some Cloud Province specialties to King Ning\'s Mansion to Mrs. Ning."
Suxi was confused and didn\'t know what the relationship was, but he continued to listen to the analysis on the screen.
Zai Zai’s dialog box continued to pop out, and he said, “He’s going to build a palace. It’s a big deal in itself. There will be rewards in the court. After a while, he may have to add officials to become a king. If he comes back, he will be more ostentatious. On the contrary, the jewels and jewels of Wang Ning are in line with the style of Mrs. Ning’s family. But he only sent a box of Cloud Province mushroom specialty products.
Suxi understands that if something goes wrong, there must be a demon.
Zai Zai came to a conclusion and said, "There is only one reason. He must have embezzled and collected money from the Cloud Province palace project. This is why he does not want to act arrogantly. Although I don\'t know how much corruption is, the number does not know how big it is, but the official government absolutely does not. clean."
However, Suxi thought to himself, even with this speculation, how could this incident be used to kill the Shangguan at the court.
As if guessing the doubts in her heart, Zai Zai said again: "This matter naturally cannot be done by me. If I go to tell the fifth prince, with the five princes\' good qualities, I will immediately inform the emperor to investigate. I If you tell the second prince, with the second prince’s twists and turns, this matter will definitely drag on for several months. Then, sooner or later, people will know that I was the first to suspect the Shangguan. We must turn over by an urgent need to make a great contribution. The hand of a man. Fast, ruthless and accurate."
Suxi thought to herself, Zai Zai and a few princes have only been together for a few days, but they can clearly feel the temperaments of the princes.
And this matter really can\'t have anything to do with Zizai, it must be discovered by one person.
Zai Zai pointed to the word "Liuzhou" on the paper again, and smiled to his side.
He said: "Liuzhou is very close to Cloud Province. The lieutenant who was demoted a few days ago was demoted to Liuzhou as a governor. If he starts to suspect this matter, he will definitely investigate and go to Cloud Province. It takes only two days. Within a day, this matter will have a result."
"But Yun Taiwei will never go to Cloud Province for no reason, and he rashly informed that he would not believe it because of his suspicious character. There is still a way to lead him to Cloud Province."
"Compared to him, his youngest son Yun Xiupang has no brains. If it is a letter, he will first lure Yun Xiupang to Cloud Province, and then let Yun Taiwei know that his son has arrived in Cloud Province, he will definitely come to pick up people. "
"At that time, he only needs to let the palace collapse a little bit so that he can discover it for himself."
"Once he finds out about this, for this credit and for the reinstatement of the officials, he will surely return to Beijing to report the matter quickly. If there are no omissions, General Yun Taiwei will be reinstated and the senior bachelor will be demoted.
"When Officer Yun Taiwei is reinstated, he thinks back, maybe only then will he wonder why Yun Xiupang was called to Cloud Province by a letter that counterfeited his hand. But then he had benefited from me, he Even if we knew it was what we did, it wouldn\'t be so."
Suxi\'s eyes lit up when she heard it, but she knew that Zai Zai\'s choice of Yun Taiwei would definitely not only kill two birds with one stone!
There must be other reasons!
Sure enough, I heard Zai Zai said: "Besides, Yun Taiwei is a first-grade official in the Privy Council, in charge of the Ministry of War. He can find a hundred reasons and put me in the vacant position of the Ministry of War. Among them. When other officials are reinstated, we will get what we want. Wouldn\'t it be the best of both worlds?"
In this way, Suxi\'s entanglement, how to get Zai Zai to complete task seven and approach General Zhen Yuan, also has a preliminary solution!
She wanted to applaud the cubs when she was off the screen!
Zai Zai\'s planning layout was much more perfect than she had imagined.
Suxi is a little bit excited about doing big things and doing arrogance now.
Before harvesting farms and homes, she only had the satisfaction of planting hamsters and hoarding things, but now she has the excitement of playing games. Once successful, the talents of the cubs will make friends in the column, maybe there will be Yun Taiwei.
In the future, Cub regaining his status as a prince, Yun Taiwei should not be surprised and will stand behind Cub.
She was heartbroken, and after discussing the countermeasures with Zizai-of course, almost all of them were Zizai\'s analysis. She listened and took notes from time to time-
She split up with Zai Zai.
...
She has unlocked the palace section and got the memorial handwriting left by Yun Taiwei when she wrote the book. Zai Zai imitated Yun Taiwei\'s handwriting and wrote a letter to Yun Xiupang, saying that Yun Taiwei wanted to see him and asked him to go to Cloud Province as soon as possible.
Then, when she went to the Imperial College in Yun Xiupang, she put the letter in Yun Xiupang\'s book bag.
Now Suxi understands why there was a side mission to rescue Yun Xiupang a few days ago. Obviously, if Cub Cub showed up at that time, he would naturally get some information about Yun Taiwei from Yun Xiupang.
But the exchange may be that Zai Zai was hated by those two elders.
But obviously, Zai Zai is very smart, even if he didn\'t get any information from Yun Xiupang, he could still think of the way the game had set him.
During this period of time, Zai Zai spent the night reading and practicing kung fu. She has accumulated one point in physical training and one point in martial arts and warfare. These two points have brought Suxi\'s accumulated points to 40. She just happened to cloud Province unlocked.
Although Zai Zai had asked Chang Gongwu to buy people privately, when Yun Taiwei arrived in Cloud Province two days later, he wanted to find a way to make trouble in the completed palace.
But Suxi was still uneasy. She specially switched the screen to Cloud Province to help.
And next...
Suxi rubbed her hands excitedly, waiting for the outcome to come out.
...
Five days later, when Suxi was leaving school and Lu Huan was taking the exam papers at Imperial College, a major event came from the court.
Say yes-the predecessor Yun Taiwei returned from Liuzhou quickly and after a close talk with the emperor, he reported that the governor of Cloud Province had corrupted the law and filled his own pockets. The emperor found after thorough investigation that it was indeed the case.
The emperor was furious.
In one dynasty, Yun Taiwei made great achievements, the official was restored to his post, and the official scholar was sent to jail. His two sons were affected and were demoted to outlying states.
The daughter, Princess Ning, has been forgiven by the emperor because she has been married for many years, but she has not been punished yet.
When news of this incident came, the students at Imperial College who were still taking the exam were shocked and talked a lot.
There was heavy rain outside the window, Lu Huan continued to answer without changing his face.
But Suxi, who had just finished school, almost jumped up on the bus with joy, and the big event succeeded! She has a strong sense of participation! Quickly turned on the screen, and excitedly tugged at the back collar of the cub.
Lu Huan was still answering the test paper, and suddenly felt the collar was pulled.
A helpless smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He stopped writing, his dark eyes were bright, he raised his head and looked out the empty window, as if looking at the person beside him.
Although everything went smoothly as planned, which made him happy, what made him even more happy was the happiness of the person beside him.
The long road was long, lonely and with no end in sight. Lu Huan never thought that there would be a bright light to accompany him.
Now... he has it.
