Pastoral affairs

The few old men staying in the elegant seat hurriedly led the servants out, chatted and joked with this person for a while, and the person wanted to leave impatiently. The people in the other room had not yet breathed a sigh of relief. Nie Qiu Ran suddenly laughed: "We are old friends of the Changping Marquis in the past. I understand that if the servant wants to ask the origin of this person's name, how about inviting Luo Xuan to come with him?"

Everyone didn't expect him to be so bold. Those old people were so frightened that they trembled all over and dared not speak.The gloomy middle-aged man turned his head to look at Nie Qiuran for a moment, his eyes showed a bit of murderous intent and ruthlessness, but Nie Qiuran just looked at him with a smile and didn't talk much. After a while, the servant With a grin, he patted the long knife on the side of his waist, and laughed a few times: "Your Majesty is so brave, I brought this word for you!" The threat in his words was self-evident, and everyone was frightened. Everyone was speechless, and after the man left for a long time, there were bursts of gasps and reliefs in the inn.

The corpse on the table was quickly carried down, and the poetry meeting, which was originally full of enthusiasm, naturally ended because of this accident.The bloodstains on the table and the ground have been wiped clean at this moment, and there is no clue to be seen anymore, but the smell of blood in the air is still lingering, Cui Wei has already Sitting on a chair, his face turned slightly pale: "Brother Nie, that person died just now? Then who is Luo Xuan, and why is he so powerful?" He even dared to kill someone in the street, and no one dared to stop him after killing someone He let him go, this situation made Cui Wei, who had never seen such a scene, look a little ugly, smelling the bloody smell couldn't help but want to vomit.

Many people dared to ask Luo Xuan's background when they saw her.Immediately, everyone rolled their eyes at Cui Wei. If it hadn't been for the thought that Nie Qiuran had just said that he and Luo Xuan knew each other, the two of them might have had an affair. .

The old men who sent the gloomy-looking middle-aged man out turned back after a while, but one of the old men in dark green clothes did not come back with them. Qiuran walked straight towards him, sat down at the inn not far from him, and cupped hands at Nie Qiuran.With a kind face on one side, he said: "Shen He, the old doctor of the Ministry of Rites, I don't know who the little man is from, and who is his surname. I don't know when he was a juren in Zhengde?" Zhengde is the year number issued by the current emperor. They all use their own unique year titles to call Jishu, and the first emperor was known as Tianyuan back then.

Nie Qiuran smiled gently.Many people in the inn who were still in shock at the moment heard the name of the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, and their eyes lit up immediately. They looked at Nie Qiuran with jealousy and envy in their eyes, wishing they could immediately replace Nie Qiuran and go forward , It would be good to talk to the old man.In general, there are not all the people who have been officials in this inn in the past, but there are very few officials from the Ministry of Etiquette who come here.Not to mention being a doctor of the fourth rank!

Nie Qiuran didn't seem to notice the jealous eyes of everyone.He just said softly: "I am a Juren from the 11th year of Zhengde, and I am from Jianghuai Lin'an." It has been three years since the 11th year of Zhengde!Nie Qiuran looks like he is not yet old enough to be a weak crown, that is to say, he has already won the Juren in his teens!As for the 11-year Juren of Zhengde, he was a young Juren in Lin'an back then, everyone immediately remembered it, and the eyes of the old man who called himself Shen He also lit up.Suddenly stood up, looked at Nie Qiuran and said, "Your surname is Nie, isn't it?" Nie Qiuran was one of the few in the Daqing Dynasty who had already won the Juren at a young age. It may not be possible to produce one in ten years, so everyone has a deep impression on Nie Qiuran. The old man's eyes are very bright, and his face is full of surprise. After seeing Nie Qiuran nodded, he suddenly said excitedly: "Okay, very good. You are indeed very good. Your Majesty is so young and promising, such a talented person. This time, the emperor is very happy. I will write a letter of recommendation for you. I wonder if Mr. Lang has a marriage contract at home now? If there is no marriage contract, maybe..." The old man didn't say much about the rest, but he stroked his beard and looked at Nie Qiuran and laughed.

Everyone understood the meaning of this man's words, and they couldn't help being jealous and envious of Nie Qiuran immediately. This man is not only young but promising, and this time he has been favored by the court officials. , the future is boundless, with a father-in-law who is a member of the fourth rank, are you afraid that there will be no future in the future?Nie Qiuran has stepped into the threshold of wealth in one step.

What's more, this person seemed to be acquainted with Chang Ping Hou. For a while, many people stared at Nie Qiuran speechlessly, their eyes turned red with jealousy.

"Master Shen's kindness, I appreciate it, but now I already have a wife, this is my wife, Cui Shi." After Nie Qiuran finished speaking, he pointed to Cui Jingping who had already got together and whispered to Cui Jingping. Wei, as soon as he said this, there was a dead silence in the Zhuangyuan building, and the scene suddenly became embarrassing.

The fourth-rank rite doctor, who called himself Shen He, had a gloomy expression on his face for a while, he didn't expect Nie Qiuran to say that in public, it was obvious that he didn't want to give him face!Generally speaking, if I take the initiative to ask this question, even if the person is already married, I shouldn't refuse so simply, but as long as I am a smart person, I will know what to do to benefit him. He refused directly, but he was just a boy from a poor country, could he still think that he was the son of some powerful family?He manages the Ministry of Rites by himself, even if he is not the chief examiner this time, he will assist the Minister of Rites to be the examiner this time, he is not afraid of offending himself, it seems that he is also a young man who does not know his depth!

Thinking of this, the old man's expression became even more ugly. Everyone around looked at Nie Qiuran gloatingly, and many of them breathed a sigh of relief. Many students had been in the examination for many years and hadn't passed the Jinshi exam. This time they gathered again Together, even if there is someone with a big heart, but thinking that he is not as good as others, he is somewhat unhappy, especially seeing that Nie Qiuran is so lucky to be treated differently by the officials of the Ministry of Rites. Many people are still extremely jealous. Everyone felt that Nie Qiuran was young and full of vigor. Seeing that he refused the examiner's wooing, he laughed in his heart, and then saw Cui Wei beside him. Before, everyone thought she was just a concubine. After all, Cui Wei Although Wei's appearance was beautiful, it was not so stunning. It was not worth Nie Qiuran to offend the examiner because of her. I didn't expect this young man to be so unwise, and everyone was relieved at the moment.

The rite doctor who claimed to be Shen He stood up in embarrassment, looked at Cui Wei with a smirk, and said in a bad tone: "Since Nie Juren has already married a wife, Shen Menglang is the one." He finished , and said goodbye with some unsightly faces, Nie Qiuran didn't want to stay, and cupped his hands at him. Seeing Nie Qiuran's behavior, Shen He naturally felt even more embarrassed. The old man left together.

As soon as they left, many people gathered around, pretending to regret: "Brother Nie, you rejected Mr. Shen so flatly, did you find yourself unhappy? What a pity!" They all breathed a sigh of relief and were extremely happy, but they just came to be a good person at this moment, Nie Qiuran showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, and didn't say much.While everyone was enjoying their misfortune, a group of five or six young students wearing wide-sleeved, narrow-skirted skirts and dark clothes suddenly came in.

As soon as the man came in, he took a few glances at the Zhuangyuan Building. When he saw Nie Qiuran, his eyes lit up, and he hurried over. The leader, a tall and thin young man about 25 years old, had already raised his arms. , opened the wide sleeves, fluttered like a butterfly, and said happily to Nie Qiuran loudly: "Brother Nie, brother Nie!"

Cui Wei heard the voice sound familiar, and followed the voice, and saw a tall, gorgeously dressed, white jade crowned young man with an elegant face approaching Nie Qiuran with a smile on his face.Although it had been many years since they had seen each other, Cui Wei recognized this person immediately. It was Qin Huai who had helped her a lot back then.Nie Qiuran also stood up and bowed to Qin Huai at the same time. At first, Qin Huai and Nie Qiuran were classmates, but because of Qin Huai's initiative to help, they gradually became friends. They have been friends for many years, Nie Qiuran had written with him when he came to Beijing, Qin Huai only brought a large group of people here today.

These people are almost all the sons of officials and eunuchs who have achieved academic success in Dingzhou, headed by Qin Huai, this time they came to Beijing to rush for the exam.Cui Wei saw that these people were talking vigorously, so she didn't bother, and sat aside with Cui Jingping.

The sudden killing on the field just now scared the two brothers Cui Jingping very much. At this moment, Cui Jinghuai's face was still stiff and his body was trembling. She wasn't too scared, she was talking with Cui Jingping, originally she was planning to go out for a walk today, to see if she could buy a shop with the money she had left, but now it seems that Qin Huai has come, Nie Qiuran couldn't just leave someone behind and go out with her, so she didn't go out at all. Anyway, she didn't stay in Shangjing for a day or two. If Nie Qiuran won the Jinshi this time, she would stay in Beijing for a long time. I plan to go out to find a shop a day or two later, which is about the same.

"Did Changping Hou pass by here before? I heard that the crown prince is very fond of him. Now the emperor is seriously ill, and the crown prince is in charge of the country. Half a month ago, Chang Pinghou was recalled to Beijing, and he intends to make him the post of admiral in Beijing. "After Qin Huai came, many people in the inn saw that they were looking for someone who was dressed in extraordinary clothes, and they were afraid of offending the nobleman, and would end up dead on the spot like the bohemian middle-aged student before, although many scholars had arrogance in their hearts Now, seeing those eunuchs killing people in the street with my own eyes, I was still terribly frightened, fearing that I would die before I could leave the army.
