Chapter 147: be trained

As we all know, Juren who has achieved great fame doesn't have to kneel down when he meets an official in the hall, and everyone should respect him wherever he goes. Pass a name card to the mansion of an ordinary person, and it is not enough for others to eat and drink, so you have to send some money as a gift.

It can be said that there is no need to worry about food and clothing.

Generally speaking, gangsters bully the weak and fear the strong, so they have to wink. Not everyone in the capital can be bullied.

Someone once said that this matter is very unreasonable.

But some people say, who knows who is who when drunk? It must have been a booze accident.

After all, the gangster who killed the person ran away and was not caught in the end.

It has since become an unsolved case.

In her previous life, Jiang Xuening was still busy thinking about the election of Linzi Princess at the moment, but she didn't have time to take care of all kinds of things in the imperial examination field.

It was only after she married Shen Jie that she heard about Weng Ang as a joke.

Today, I accidentally heard this person's wild words and saw this person's crazy behavior. After thinking about it carefully, I felt that there might be something to say in it.

Push Xiao Shu to make a kiss...

When these words came out of Weng Ang's mouth, they could really scare a bunch of people to death.

When it fell into Jiang Xuening's ears, it seemed like roots had grown.

These words were still in her mind until she saw the soaring price of silver shares in Ren's Saltworks, returned to Jiang's Mansion, woke up after a sleep, and started to pack up all the things to attend the palace after the New Year's Eve. Shake it from time to time, but it can't disappear anyway.

It was noon, and the remaining snow had melted.

There are two chess books on the corner of the desk next to the window.

It was someone from Jiang Xuehui who came to inform her of the preparations, saying that during the time when she was not in the palace, although Mr. Xie led the decree all the way to pursue and destroy the Tianjiao, he did not teach anything new, but the other gentleman was so excited. I taught the big guys how to play chess, I am afraid that I will continue to learn this time when I enter the palace.

Jiang Xuening stared at them now, dazed.

Lian'er was lighting the banknotes and a few handfuls of silver coins that she had prepared for Jiang Xuening when she entered the palace this time, and was preparing to go back to the palace to deal with the palace servants.

It's just that she pouted while counting.

Then he murmured: "The day of entering the palace is not too early or too late. It happens to be your birthday. At noon, someone from my wife's side invited you to spend your birthday with the eldest girl. It's good for you. Let me give you a word. Push it clean and let them have fun over there. If you don’t know it, I’m afraid you’ll think it’s just a big girl’s birthday. If it’s a servant girl, I’ll go if anyone tells me to. I'm happier than all of them! When you enter the palace, the rules are so strict, it's not easy to celebrate your birthday with a lot of fanfare..."

Jiang Xuening listened to her talk, 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?

It was indeed like what Lian Er said, not only went, but also had a good time. After all, things were different back then than they are now. In the previous life, she flattered Shen Jie, and she was the one who finally chose Princess Linzi, and it was almost a certainty, so she was particularly proud of it, and deliberately wanted to find Jiang Xuehui and Meng's bad luck on such a good day as her birthday, so she said nothing in a few words. Tell everyone to change color.

Jiang Xuehui looked at her for a long time.

Then he didn't say anything, told the others to disperse, and got up to leave.

What Jiang Xuening hated the most was the calm face of this "sister", which gave her the feeling of being punched into the cotton, so she chased after her and stopped her, and asked with a sneer, "Don't you like Shen Jie? But now His Royal Highness Linzi is going to marry me. Back then, the dove occupied the magpie's nest, which replaced my identity. I have lived a good life without worrying about food and clothing for so many years. I hate that God has no eyes, and still allows you to live comfortably. Then I have to come by myself to let you know the taste of retribution."

Jiang Xuehui still had to leave.

She took a step forward and stopped him.

She finally stopped, looked up at her, and said slowly: "Are you really happy?"

Why not happy?

Married to the gentle and refined King Linzi, she stole the marriage of her older sister who occupied her status back then and is now still bearing the name of a concubine. The whole family will look at her face, and prosperity and wealth are just around the corner...

Jiang Xuening felt that she was very happy.

But seeing Jiang Xuehui seemed unmoved, the idea seemed to have grown wings and flew away with a light wave of happiness. On the day when Zhen and Shen Jie got married, her head was empty and full of bewilderment, as if she had been thrown into the clouds and could not touch the ground.

"Second girl, although you won't go to the wife and eldest girl, today is your birthday, so I still want to ask for one." Tang'er smiled slightly, and actually took out a purse from her sleeve. , and then took out a bracelet from it, and threaded nineteen small round golden bells on it with a red string. As for the bell, you will add one when you grow older, and the slave has already added it for you."

She handed the bracelet to Jiang Xuening.

Jiang Xuening took it over and saw it, and then remembered in a daze that there was indeed such a gift: it was her sixteen-year-old, and on her second birthday in the capital, Yan Lin took her to play wildly at the Lantern Festival that day, and Lin Lin sent her off When he went back, he pulled her into a dark corner of the alley next to him. The boy probably blushed, right? He randomly stuffed this bunch of things into her hand, turned her head away in embarrassment.

That's Yan Lintou giving the girl something back, right?

She wondered at the time, and felt a little tacky.

But unable to stand Yan Lin's persecution, she wears a bell every year, and wears it on her birthday.

Later, the Yongyi Hou's Mansion collapsed, and she naturally never wore this thing again, and as time passed, it disappeared like Wanniang's jade bracelet.

Now that there is this bunch of long-lost old things spread out in the palm of Jiang Xuening's mind, it is Yan Lin, who has become a general and is still in power, kneeling in front of her with his head bowed, and took out the bunch of things that he hadn't known before. The golden bells, which had been missing from her place for many years, were tied around her slender wrists, and she said to her in a soft voice as if dreaming: "Mother, I secretly thought in my heart that when the string of bells was added to twenty At that time, I will be able to marry the girl with the bell back home. But it turns out that the empress has lofty aspirations, and after all she doesn't care about it..."

Seeing her sad and happy expression, Tang'er couldn't help but feel uneasy, and then suddenly remembered that the Yongyi Hou's mansion had fallen: "It's all because of the slaves..."

Jiang Xuening interrupted her and said, "It's okay."

She let out a light breath, only handed the string of bells to Tang'er, and said with a smile, "Didn't you say it's for good luck? Put it on for me."

In this life, she and Yan Lin have made it clear that they have broken off ties.

There is no need to shy away from this bell.

After all, the young man had a heart, she wished him well, and he wished her well.

Seeing her laughing, Tang'er felt a little relieved, hesitated a bit, and put on this bracelet made of golden bells for her.

A slender white wrist, a string of small golden bells.

The red string at the end was tied in a thin lock and hung down on the delicate skin of the back of the hand, which was gorgeous.

Lian'er couldn't help but praised: "It's so pretty, I'm afraid only our girls' hands can wear it like this."

Jiang Xuening shook her hand, and a thin sound could be faintly heard, not loud, but quite light.

She said: "Okay, get ready to enter the palace."

The two girls of the Jiang family were going to study with the palace, so they should go together, but after all, Jiang Xuening cared a little bit about Jiang Xuehui, so she deliberately made excuses saying that she hadn't packed up yet, and let Jiang Xuehui set off alone, while she asked the mansion to re-start. I prepared a carriage and left two minutes late.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xuening was sitting in the car and had just passed two streets, when several fast horses galloped towards him.

The people on the horses were all dressed in Hu clothes and fur caps, and they looked like foreigners, and they were swinging whips whistling in their hands, laughing at each other.

This is a lively market, and their speed is not slow at all!

Jiang's driver was startled.

In a panic, he hurriedly drove the cart to the side to avoid the oncoming fast horse, but the wheels of the carriage hit the hard rocks that were propped up by a few vendors nearby when they set up their stalls, and there was a "click" Folded, can't roll anymore.

Jiang Xuening was almost thrown out of the car. When the car stopped, she frowned tightly and asked, "What's going on?"

The coachman was still in shock: "A few Tatars came over on horseback just now, but fortunately the young ones dodged quickly, only the car was damaged and no one was hit!"

Jiang Xuening looked towards the other side of the street.

Those few horses had long since disappeared, but people turned their backs on their backs everywhere along the street, be it passers-by or vendors, they were all cursing and swearing, obviously they were all affected and suffered.

Youhuang Pavilion is across the street.

Lu Xian was sitting by the window, frowning and looking at the piano board on the table, it was obviously carved some time ago, the beech wood material and wood texture are all excellent.

It was just a blunt failure on the position of the left half of the palm.

Obviously the carving knife was crooked.

There was even some blood stains on it that hadn't been wiped clean.

"I remember this is the best of the few pieces of material I found for you two months ago. Haven't you already taken it to chop the qin?" Lu Xian looked at Xie Wei who was drinking tea on the opposite side, and there was something in his voice. Dissatisfied, "An old tree has grown for 800 years, and there are only a few pieces of good wood when it is cut down. Where can I find you a few pieces of the same tree or even the same one? Xie Ju'an, when you cut the piano, did you Is it a dream, or a ghost? It can be destroyed!"

Xie Wei has been obsessed with trivial matters lately, seeing that the snow has finally melted after several days after the New Year, he came out of the mansion and made a special trip to the Youhuang Pavilion.

He naturally knew that the wood of this zither was hard to find.

But if it's not hard to find, where does Lu Xian need to work?

When he was sitting, his back was facing the window sash covered with snow-white window paper, half of his face was buried in the darkness, he only put down the cup of tea, and said: "Please troubleshoot, and look for it for me."

Lu Xian is really one head and two big.

He knew that since Xie Wei came in person, this piano might be more important, so he rubbed his temples, and in the end he asked the people below to take out all the storage books from the previous few months, and rummaged through them one by one. Find a piece of wood whose material and texture are similar to the current piece of wood, so that it can be used for the piano that Xie Wei cut before.

After searching for a long time, there was no result, but a flash of inspiration flashed in his head, he suddenly thought of something, and said: "You are free to come here today, then Xiao Dingfei has been lawless in the Duke's Mansion recently, you must have heard about it?"

It's a thing.

How many absurd things Xiao Dingfei has done in the past ten days, all of them have been heard by Xie Wei, but he has a lot of things to do when he first took charge of the Ministry of Industry, and it is Xiao Shi who Xiao Dingfei is tossing, so he doesn't care about it for the time being. But the things in this world are too much to go too far, it will not happen overnight to really bring down the Xiao family, after a while, they should stop and plan big plans.

If not restrained, I'm afraid Xiao Dingfei will be complacent and forget who he is.

Thinking of this, Xie Wei called Jianshu in, and ordered: "Let Daoqin go there in a while, and warn him, the prestige has already been achieved, don't make too much noise..."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a sudden commotion outside.

It sounded like something was wrong.

Xie Wei frowned when he heard this, and he glanced out the window.

It was really chaotic down there.

There was a carriage leaning on the side of the street, and the driver was squatting down to check the wheels, but beside him was a girl wrapped in snow fox fur and a red satin cloak standing beside her, her pretty face was slapped wide, It was as cold as ice.

Lu Xian also saw it, and couldn't help turning his eyes to look at Xie Wei.

A group of envoys from Tatar are really majestic!

I really regard the capital as my home.

Jiang Xuening would have been a little later than Jiang Xuehui when she came out of Jiang's mansion, if there were no accidents on the way, she would go there at the time set by the palace. But when I encountered this kind of thing on the way, the carriage broke down, people were on the way, and I don't know how long the delay would be, so I really had nowhere to vent my anger.

She was just about to say that she should hire a sedan chair nearby and go to the palace first, and leave the matter of the carriage to the coachman to deal with slowly, but before she could speak, she looked up and saw a person coming down from the Youhuang Pavilion on the second floor across the street, walking towards the palace. she came over.

I was a little surprised at the moment.

With the sword on his waist, Jianshu took a look at the carriage, and it was indeed broken, so he cupped his hands to Jiang Xuening and said, "The second girl is going to enter the palace, right? If the carriage breaks down now, I won't be able to go there for a while. It's windy outside, why don't you go upstairs Sit on the top, sir is over there."

Jiang Xuening subconsciously glanced at the second floor across the street, and one of the windows was indeed half open, and she saw Xie Wei's clear profile profile at a glance.

After returning from Tongzhou, I haven't seen him for more than ten days.

Xie Wei didn't catch her to learn the piano again, and Xiao Dingfei made a good show after another, so she had a very comfortable and good year. This time she was going to enter the palace again. When she was in the car just now, she was thinking that she would have to be carried by this young master again, lying low and being a small boy.

But I didn't expect to bump into him before entering the palace.

Jiang Xuening suddenly thought of Zhang Zhe. He also got a promotion when he came back from Tongzhou, so he must be busy too, right?

Although I was thinking so much in my heart, I still felt bored for some reason.

Since Xie Wei asked her to go, and it was really cold outside, she naturally had no choice but to refuse, she nodded, then told the coachman a few words, went upstairs with the sword book, and entered the Youhuang Pavilion.

She came here with Yan Lin before, but the layout of the hall has not changed much.

The sword book led her to go further inside.

Opening a door curtain, Jiang Xuening saw Xie Wei sitting inside. There was a brazier burned with silver charcoal in the room, which was warm. He was sitting under the window, wearing a green Taoist robe, and he just raised his eyes to see she.

Xie Wei was in Youhuang Hall, he must have seen Lu Xian.

But now I didn't see Lu Xianren.

Jiang Xuening's eyes flicked past the teacup that hadn't been taken away from Xie Wei, and she politely came forward and said, "Mr. Xie is good."

When she saluted, her hands were folded on 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 bumped into a Tatar man?"

Jiang Xuening couldn't help curling her lips, thinking of what happened just now, she was still a little angry, and said angrily: "The students haven't completely met each other. I really need to meet each other. I'm afraid I'm missing an arm and a leg when you see me now."

Xie Wei frowned: "The sixteenth day of the first lunar month, what nonsense are you talking about?"

The sixteenth day of the first lunar month is also my birthday, I don't even shy away from it, why do you shy away from it?

Jiang Xuening slandered him, not very pleased with him, but did not dare to contradict him, so she could only bury her head and whispered: "Oh."

Xie Wei could see that she was not convinced.

After staring at her for a while, he suddenly said: "I've been with Xiao Dingfei these days, watching him torment Dingguo's mansion, even carrying many things from the palace to give to you, you are happy to receive it ?”

Jiang Xuening's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't expect Xie Wei to talk to herself about this, so she raised her head immediately.

But when he met Xie Wei's bright eyes, he lost courage for no reason.

She thought, there is really no need to hide this from Xie Wei.

He simply told the truth, and said frankly: "Anyway, he is not a good guy. The students are really happy to see him tormenting the Duke's mansion. Not only happy, but also to applaud him. The more troubled the Duke's mansion is, the happier the students are. "

In the final analysis, grievances must be reported.

What he said actually had a bit of the tricky and domineering look of the past, when the delicate eyebrows were frowned, there was even a bit of coquettish perversity, and he didn't even bother to cover it up.

Xie Wei looked at her for a while, then said abruptly: "Now you don't pretend to be in front of me."

Jiang Xuening's heart shuddered.

But after thinking about it, he laughed at himself and said, "Didn't I know what I am, sir? You are too lazy to pretend in front of me, so why should I pretend to be with you?"

It's not like they just met now.

Four years ago, the barren mountains and wild valleys had already torn off their masks, and each of them had seen the worst side of each other. Now the more gentle and virtuous they pretended to be, the more hypocritical they were.

So she was more presumptuous towards Xie Wei than towards others.

Isn't Xie Wei not very polite when talking to her in private?

As soon as the words came out, Jiang Xuening felt cold on the back of her neck, and suddenly realized: I shouldn't have said these words. The experience of going to Beijing with Xie Wei back then should be buried in my heart, and I won't bring it up to say the first half of it.

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 had to bow his head under the eaves, so he took the initiative to admit his mistake first: "It's the student who spoke out loud and said the wrong thing again."

Xie Wei looked at her for a while, and said, "Stretch out your hand."

As soon as Jiang Xuening heard these two words, her scalp went numb. She still remembered the beating she received when she reached out to Xie Wei for a bank note last time.

Xie Wei said: "What do you say about taking Xiao Dingfei's things?"

Jiang Xuening now forgot all the troubles of what she said just now, and shouted: "The student is very good at tossing people, he took the initiative to ask me to teach him, and I gave him some pointers, he can't do too much. Bar?"

Xie Wei sneered: "Can you still be a teacher if you are talented?"

Jiang Xuening wanted to talk back, but seeing that his face had sunk a bit, he was even more frightening than before, so she couldn't help but shivered, and stopped in time.

There is a bamboo ruler on the side of the table.

It's not the kind used by teachers 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 copied it, and still said to her: "Stretch out your hand."

Jiang Xuening knew that she would still be beaten, closed her eyes, and finally stretched out her hands.

Xie Wei really wanted to give her a couple of slaps, so that she could have a long memory. But the outstretched wrist was tied with a string of small golden bells, which made a delicate sound as they swayed gently, and the red string made the skin fairer.

There is a faint oblique old scar on the inside.

The bamboo ruler he raised did not fall down.

Jiang Xuening waited for a long time, feeling uneasy, she didn't wait for the expected pain, so she opened her eyes quietly.

Xie Wei asked her: "Today is your birthday?"

Jiang Xuening's eyes lit up, and she knew that it was impossible for someone like Xie Wei to know her birthday, she must have seen the bracelet on her wrist before she asked, so she turned around and said sadly: "Yes, today is the date of birth. The student is a little birthday star, but in the rush to enter the palace, his birthday has never passed, he neither eats nor drinks well, and no one makes a bowl of longevity noodles, and the master wants to punish me! The students know that they are wrong I don’t dare to do it again in the future, why don’t I let it go this time because I have such a miserable birthday?”

Xie Wei didn't speak.

Jiang Xuening became more courageous: "You acquiesced?"

She pulls her hand back.

But at this moment, with a "snap", the ruler in Xie Wei's hand fell down mercilessly and hit her palm, causing her to withdraw her hand and hold it in pain, and looked at him angrily. past.

There was no fluctuation in Xie Wei's voice, and he said: "Today's punishment will not be reserved for tomorrow. Xiao Dingfei is such a frivolous dandy, if you let me know that you have had close contacts with him, it will not be so easy to forgive you gone."

Jiang Xuening was startled and frightened, and looked at him with tears in her eyes.

Xie Wei threw the ruler away, but without looking at her, he got up the tea, raised his voice and said, "Jianshu, tell Daoqin to take out the memorial from my car, and send her to the palace."

Jianshu came in and asked Jiang Xuening to go.

Jiang Xuening didn't even react, she was still thinking "Xie Wei is cold-blooded and ruthless, he actually hit me on my birthday", she got into Xie Wei's car holding her hand with a red mark, and was still angry It's too bad.

Dao Qin drove directly to the direction of the palace.

When Jianshu came back, he saw Lu Xian, who had avoided the secret room before, wandered back at some point, and only looked at his husband with that intriguing look.

Jianshu thought for a while and said: "Daoqin sent the second girl Ning, so it must not be with the young master, the subordinate will go there in person?"

Xie Wei put the cup of tea in his hand, but didn't drink it.

He looked at the ripples on the tea soup for a while, and said: "No need, just let him make trouble."

Jianshu was stunned.

Xie Wei frowned, seemed a little disturbed, loosened the lid of the tea and let him cover it back to the teacup, there was a sound of beating, then put the teacup back to the corner of the desk, said: "I'm always in charge, nothing serious will happen."

Sword Book: "..."

Lu Xian: "..."

Hehe, now you are playing around again, who said that Xiao Dingfei should be restrained to make him less troublesome?
