Text Chapter 288: The villain is causing trouble, Wen Ran is repairing the road

Looking at the situation in front of him and listening to the other party's words, Qiu Yan could roughly guess that the person in front of him was Mr. Ma as mentioned by the servants, and he was also Han Weier's suitor.

Although Mr. Ma was asking Qiu Yan's name, he did not mean to take Qiu Yan seriously. This was not contempt, but a genuine disinterest, just like seeing a kitten on the road. The same look he cast as a dog.

"This Young Master Ma should have an extraordinary background. His surname is Ma. It seems like he comes from an extraordinary family. He has a certain amount of influence in the east and is also connected with the Han family. Could it be..."

Just when Qiu Yan was thinking, Han Weier had already told Qiu Yan's name. At the same time, she turned to Qiu Yan and said, "Brother Qiu, this is Ma Wan, and his grandfather is the current Prime Minister Ma Yang." Mr. Ma, we are family friends of my Han family."

"As expected."

These words confirmed Qiu Yan's guess, and then he stepped forward to salute, wanting to thank Ma Yang for his help back then.

But Ma Wan just returned the salute indifferently, and then turned his attention back to Han Weier. Qiu Yan frowned and felt dissatisfied: "Since Ma Wan is the grandson of Mr. Ma Xiangguo, he has a good family background. "Why are you so rude? Even if you admire the daughter of the Han family, when you can greet her politely, you shouldn't be so perfunctory and appear uneducated."

Thinking like this, Qiu Yan stopped speaking.

On the other side, Han Weier interrupted Ma Wan's attentive words: "I know Brother Ma wants to confirm what he has learned with me, but I have something else to do right now. I have to take Brother Qiu to meet the ancestors. If I have anything to say, I'll talk about it later. Bar."

This was said simply. After saying this, Han Weier did not waste any time and ordered her servant to take Ma Wan to the side room to wait, and then led Qiu Yan through the side door into the house.

Seeing Han Weier's leaving figure, Ma Wan looked regretful. There was reluctance in his eyes.

At this time, a person walked out of another side door. He was dressed in green clothes and a black hat. He saw Ma Wan's expression and stepped forward and said, "Master Sun, why did you let Miss Han go? You haven't thought about food or food these days, don't you?" Just to meet someone?"

Ma Wan came back to her senses and looked around a few times, but saw that no one was paying attention. Then he lowered his voice and said: "Keep your voice down, if people hear it, it will be a bad news."

It turned out that the young master of the Ma family was deeply in love with Miss Han. As soon as he heard that she was back, he rushed over as soon as possible.

After hearing this, the boy rolled his eyes and said, "But because of that scholar? In the stories told by storytellers, these white-faced scholars are mentioned. They are often the most intimidating, and the rich lady is deceived by their sweet words and immediately refuses. Dividing things and giving them to others is just a matter of persuasion, but you have to be careful, young master."

After hearing this, Ma Wan's face changed slightly, showing concern and anger. But he scolded him: "Don't say these insulting words. It is Old Prime Minister Han who wants to see the scholar, and Miss Han is just leading the way."

The boy then said: "That scholar doesn't have an official position at first glance. Why bother bothering Miss Han to lead the way? Besides, how can a person who can catch Han Gong's eyes be ordinary? Master, do you know what this person's name is?"

Ma Wan felt a little uneasy at this moment, and subconsciously said: "It's a scholar named Qiu Yan."

"Qiu Yan?" The boy looked thoughtful, "The name sounds familiar. By the way, I thought of it. When the old man was living in southern Xinjiang, wasn't there a scholar named Qiu Yan who came to study? I heard that the scholar Relying on the teachings and connections of the old Xiangguo, I got the title of Jieyuan of Jiannan Road, and later I was recommended to come to Dongdu, where I wanted to join another academy. "

"Huh? When you said that, I also remembered it." Ma Wan's face immediately turned ugly, "If this Qiu Yan is really that Qiu Yan, then he has received great favor from my family and did not visit Dongdu first. , but came to Han Mansion, is it because he wanted to climb a higher branch? Wouldn't that mean he was cheating?

There was suspicion in his heart, and he was disturbed by what the boy said. He became angry and malicious, but he never thought that one of his long-term followers would be so clear about these things and even the ins and outs. Can sort it out.

Ma Wan was furious, thinking that he had met a scholar who did not repay his kindness, and he had a prejudice against Qiu Yan. He vaguely felt that the other person had evil intentions and had such unreasonable thoughts about his sweetheart. He was extremely angry and harbored such thoughts. With this idea in mind, he took the boy through the door and found a side room to wait.

The changes in Ma Wan's senses triggered a chain of cause and effect, which made Qiu Yan's soul tremble slightly and he felt something in his heart.

"Huh? There has just been a hint of hostility against me in the house, very strong."

At this time, he was following Han Weier through a room. There were many servants along the way. When he saw Han Weier, they all greeted Han Weier with a smile, and Han Weier returned the greetings one by one without any airs.

After walking a few steps, three people came forward, led by a middle-aged man with an extraordinary appearance. Han Weier stopped walking and saluted, called "Second Uncle", and then introduced to Qiu Yan: "This is my Second Uncle Han Zhuo. He is a high-ranking official in the imperial court, reaching the rank of doctor in the Ministry of Industry."

"It turns out it's Sir Langzhong. The students are polite." Qiu Yan saluted.

The Ministry of Industry is one of the six ministries, in charge of construction, water conservancy, transportation and various large-scale projects. The Doctor of the Ministry of Industry is a fifth-rank official. In terms of salary, it is equivalent to the mayor of a prefecture-level city in Qiu Yan's previous life, and most of them have real power. Generally responsible for supervising specific construction affairs, it may seem inconspicuous, but it is a position that is easy to achieve political achievements and rich in oil and water. It has inherent advantages in promotion and wealth.

"Are you Qiu Yan?" Han Zhuo smiled and nodded kindly when he saw Qiu Yan, "I've heard of you, Jiannan Dao Jie Yuan, good handwriting, and officials say you are a talented person in the country. I have high expectations for you, and when I saw you today, you turned out to be a talented person.”

After a few words of greeting, Han Weier said: "Second uncle, you are going to see Ma Wan."

"Yes, I haven't seen his father for a while. He came to the house today to express his condolences and introduce two talented people to him. By the way, nephew Qiu Xian has met his father. If there is any If you have time, you might as well talk about it.”

After hearing this, Qiu Yan moved his gaze behind him.

He had long noticed the two people behind Han Zhuo. They were two scholars. One of them had a vague causal connection with him, but it was not strong and was about to disappear. Just thinking about it, Qiu Yan guessed the reason.

"This person must have been taken away by King Yan and returned to his original owner by me, so he is involved."

At the same time as the thought fell, the two people stepped forward to greet him. After informing Qiu Yan of his name, he left with Han Zhuo.

Looking at Han Zhuo's leaving figure, Qiu Yan sighed in his heart: "Although I have the name of Jieyuan, I have no official position, and this Han Zhuo is a high-ranking official of the fifth rank, ranking in the center, but his words are polite. Zhou Quan, in comparison, Ma Wan is far behind."

But of course he knew. Although Han Zhuo praised him, he was actually just being polite and did not really take him seriously. There were differences in status, popularity and reputation between the two of them. It would take some time for them to have an equal dialogue.

When the three of them were far away, Han Weier said in a low voice: "That Zhang Yingchao suffered a big disaster before, and finally a noble man took action. Only then did things turn around. He deeply remembered this kindness and said that he would repay it one day." After she said this, she smiled. He looked at Qiu Yan.

This Han Weier knows about paperweights and jade basins. I have also monitored King Yan, so of course I know the ins and outs and can guess some things.

Qiu Yan said with an unchanging expression: "Repaying kindness with gratitude is the normal order of humanity. It should be like this."

Hearing what Qiu Yan said, Han Weier was stunned and said no more. The two of them walked a few steps forward and came to a study in the back house of Han Mansion.

This study is located in a separate courtyard. There are flowers and plants in the courtyard. It smells like dust. There is an old servant standing in front of the door.

Han Weier took a step forward and said, "Grandpa Wu, I brought you here."

The old servant looked at Han Weier kindly, nodded, and then said: "The master has given instructions. After he arrives, you can go in to see him, but Miss Second, you can't follow him."

"I understand this. Grandpa is putting on airs again." Han Weier smiled and said something that made the old servant feel helpless.

Qiu Yan saw the situation and bowed, then pushed the door open and entered.

After the door closed, a gleam flashed in the old servant's eyes and he said to Han Weier: "Second Miss, this person is indeed extraordinary. You'd better be careful when dealing with him."

"I know this well," Han Weier responded with a smile, "However, this Qiu Yan is quite organized, so he can make friends."

………………

When you walk into the study, you will see the two-story bookshelf and the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, giving people a sense of literary style.

Afterwards, Qiu Yan suddenly felt his body sink, and the pores all over his body felt blocked. Even the heavenly spirit felt a heavy feeling, as if a heavy object was pressing on his head. In this case, he wanted to leave his body. , it will inevitably take some effort.

Hiss, hiss...

Suddenly, Qiu Yan's soul stirred in his body, and there were whispers in his ears, as if dozens or hundreds of people were whispering the meaning of the scriptures in their ears.

"What a rich literary and thoughtful spirit!"

Letting go of his perception, Qiu Yan immediately understood the reasons for all the changes. The next moment, incense thoughts came from the hole in his soul, wrapping his soul and disguising it as ordinary thoughts. His soul cultivation aura suddenly disappeared, and the pressure and whispers around him also disappeared. Then disappeared.

"In this room, there is a faint trace of order, which can repel the power from outside."

Thinking in his mind, Qiu Yan looked forward and saw a tall figure behind the desk inside.

"Are you Qiu Yan? Well, you have some skills."

Han Yi stood up from his seat and walked over, step by step, his feet were very steady, giving Qiu Yan the illusion that a high mountain was approaching.

"What an amazing momentum! Could this old Prime Minister Han also be a monk?"

This thought flashed across his mind, but the next moment, Qiu Yan caught Han Yi's declining energy and aura, and knew that the other person was just an ordinary old man who had not practiced cultivation.

At the same time, Han Yi glanced at Qiu Yan and frowned: "Your literary thoughts have become literary minds? It is not simple, but it is not pure enough. It is obviously tainted with soul cultivation."

Having said this, he shook his head with regret on his face: "It's a pity. As a result, your literary pursuit is no longer pure and you can't be single-minded." (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature for better and updated novels. Faster!
