The world is heavy and late

Chapter 200
There was a turmoil among the students studying abroad in the capital, but no one cared too much about it, but those who cared took the opportunity to throw a few water bags, and Xu Zhong's clothes were not even wet.

Those scholars are still too innocent after all, they think this is an opportunity to become famous, but they don't know the little thoughts inside, who doesn't know the spirit who has been immersed in the court for so long.

However, when Xia Qing heard what Xiang Cang said, there were stars in his eyes for a while, and he really hated that he had never seen Master Xu's demeanor with his own eyes.

So, on the ninth day of September, Xia Qing willfully asked for family leave to leave the palace.

But as soon as he arrived at Huaiyuan Lane, Cheng Dalang who opened the door was surprised when he saw Xia Qing, he quickly opened the door, and said in a little surprise, "Why did Madam come back today?"

Xia Qing looked around the yard, and found that it was quiet inside, and Anping was not there. She also wondered: "Didn't you say that Mr. Xu is taking a rest today? Why didn't you see anyone?"

"My lord said that there is a literary meeting in Qingyun Building today, so he went to join in the fun."

join in the fun?Xu Zhong will join in the fun?
She rolled her eyes, thought for a while and asked, "Do those scholars like to go to Qingyun Tower?"

Cheng Dalang nodded: "It is said that in the past, those who won the number one scholar or those who were on the list like to entertain friends there, or meet friends through literature. The boss there often holds various literature meetings in order to attract guests. Choose the top fifty, and most of these people will go on to become famous."

Xia Qing understood, she tilted her head: "Isn't that supposed to be called Zhuangyuan Building? And haven't you only been in the capital for three or four years? How can you be so clear?"

Cheng Dalang smiled foolishly and scratched his head: "Master asked me to go out and talk to the neighbors more on weekdays, and I heard it. There used to be a Zhuangyuan building, which was just opposite Qingyun building. After the opening of Qingyun building, the Zhuangyuan building was opened. It has gradually declined, and it is said that it is because the wine in Qingyun Tower is delicious."

Xia Qing expressed his understanding, then nodded and turned around to leave. Cheng Dalang hurriedly followed and was a little puzzled: "Madam won't you wait for your lord to come back?"

Xia Qing couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes, and there was some eagerness in his voice: "Oh, what are you waiting for, hurry up and prepare the car, you must not miss such a thing as a slap in the face."

She must have a good show today, especially at a glance, the gate of Qingyun Building is full of young people in Confucian shirts coming in and out.

Directly ignoring Xiao Er who was coming up and Cheng Dalang who kept chasing after her, her eyes swept across the lobby and the boxes on the second and third floors, turning around like bees, but she just didn't see the excitement and Xu Zhong.

The very winking Xiaoer immediately understood: "Miss is looking for someone?"

Xia Qing, who came in and walked to the central hall, turned his gaze to Xiaoer, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Do you know where Master Xu Zhongxu is?"

Xiao Er: ... He really knows that Mr. Xu is a well-known figure in the capital, and guys from Qingyun Building like them are very familiar with the lively things in the capital, but...

Xiao Er hesitated and said doubtfully: "Miss belongs to Master Xu..."

"wife."

Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly laughed: "Miss, forgive me, it was too noisy in this hall just now, miss is..."

Xia Qing raised her eyebrows, and just as she was about to reiterate her identity, a familiar person came down the stairs.She smiled all of a sudden, and before anyone ran over, she walked over in two steps: "Anping, where's your lord?"

Anping saw that he was running down out of breath, and he was still panting: "Madam, master, let the servant come down and come pick you up. You, he is in the private room, so it is not easy to come out."

The Xiaoer who followed behind was stunned for a moment, they also know this young man, so could it be that this young lady...

Xia Qing glanced upstairs, not caring about the others, and ran straight up.

Xu Zhong heard a sound of "collapse", no one knocked on the door, and as soon as the sound of footsteps reached his ears, he felt a body pressing up against his back. He stretched out his hand to hold the hand hanging on his chest, a smile flashed in his eyes, but his voice was still solemn: "Sit down."

Not only did Xia Qing not sit properly, but he also took advantage of his height and shook Xu Zhong's neck several times: "I don't, you don't want to take me with you when you go out to play."

An Ping and Cheng Dalang who broke into the box together with Xia Qing forgot to glance at each other, then quietly exited and closed the door.

Xu Zhong didn't have to pull Xia Qing off his back, but Xia Qing was afraid of crushing Xu Zhong to death after lying down for a while, so he stood up obediently, but still sat next to Xu Zhong, as if two people had to be next to each other. Like together.

Xia Qing sat down and leaned against Xu Zhong: "Didn't you say there will be a literary meeting today?"

Xu Zhong reached out to lift the teapot on the table, brought Xia Qing a glass of water, and gently placed it in front of her: "It's finished."

Xia Qing was about to ask something when he heard An Ping knock on the door and said: "My lord, the ranking is out."

Before Xu Zhong could speak, Xia Qing had already raised his voice, "What number?"

Anping paused for a moment, he forgot to look at it, he thought the master wanted to see it himself.

Anping glanced at Cheng Dalang next to him, and Cheng Dalang stood there in a daze, not looking at Anping, Anping was a little annoyed.

After Xia Qing asked, she found that there was no sound outside, so she turned to Xu Zhong and said, "Anping is really getting less and less clever."

Xu Zhong glanced at her lightly, obviously dissatisfied with her words: "Anping has little thought, and is used to doing things according to others' orders."

Xia Qing poked her nose, it was obvious that others would not push him to move, she snorted and pulled Xu Zhong's hand into her arms, and said to Anping outside: "Go and see."

Anping immediately glared at Cheng Dalang, turned around and ran downstairs, Xu Zhong looked at Xia Qing's actions helplessly, and really couldn't see himself saying a word for others.

He patted the head of Xia Qing who was pouting and sullen: "Why are you so stingy now?"

Xia Qing hummed, and hit the snake with a stick: "You stare at me and kill me for Anping."

Conscience of heaven and earth, when was Xia Qing afraid of him, let alone how could he stare at her this time.

Anping swallowed, and took a step forward cautiously. He felt that those people looked at him as if they were going to kill him.

He was a little hard to understand, why did the lobby suddenly become silent?
And what are these people looking at him for?
The eyes of the crowd were complicated. Such a result was obviously unacceptable and difficult to convince. Some impulsive people couldn't help it: "Hmph, it's impossible, this Qingyun Tower is just a waste of fame."

The person next to him stretched out his hand to stop him from provoking further, but obviously many people looked at the shopkeeper of Qingyun Tower and wanted to ask what was going on.

Xu Zhong was impressively ranked first, even above Cui Shu, who was in the race this time.

But before the shopkeeper bowed his hand and explained, there was a carefree voice on the second floor: "Then you can check it out later."

As soon as these words came out, the friends who were sitting with him suddenly burst out laughing.

The person who spoke at the bottom turned red, and was about to refute, when the person in the crow blue gown who had been standing in front of the posting list turned around and smiled lightly: "After the essay competition in Qingyun Tower is over, everyone will post the posting list." Twenty articles."

That person's face turned redder, obviously he didn't know Qingyunlou, because this prosperous restaurant is not cheap, and it is not the first choice of many foreign students.

The man smiled faintly, and also ignored it, but turned his head to look at the second floor, and raised his hand in salute.

The person who had just spoken was still half leaning on the railing. Seeing this person's movements, he pursed his lips, raised his hand and saluted indifferently.

The fox friend and dog friend next to him watched his movements, put their hands on his shoulders, stretched their necks and looked down, watching the people below retract their heads a little unhappily, completely ignoring the people below to greet him and salute.

The man in the crow blue long gown was obviously stunned, then put down his hands, lowered his head and smiled, nodded to everyone in the lobby, and walked upstairs step by step, with a graceful demeanor.

The person who shrank back bumped into Song Qi: "What do you say hello to Cui Shu, it's annoying to see him like that."

Song Qi touched his sore shoulder, hissed, and bumped into his friends: "Don't touch me, can I not answer that kid's greetings? It seems that I am afraid of him."

The children of the rich and powerful families are a circle, who can not know who.

The man murmured softly: "He is the only one who is powerful, and he was stepped on, hum."

The fox friends next to him burst into laughter again, and some even shouted: "Du Er Er, it's your father who compared him to you again, hahahaha, hahaha."

Everyone around the red-faced people joked one after another, and in the silence, their voices shook the sky.
