Be a master through ancient times
Chapter 231
Chu Ci felt that the current Holy Majesty was a big talker, and what he had just told him in the afternoon was widely circulated in the evening.
At that time, he was working overtime in the yamen with Tixue Dao, Guozijian and other academies. It must be incomplete for him to come up with the question alone.
Everyone racked their brains to think about the topic, and everyone knew that this matter was related to the court. If the topic was not well chosen, it would damage the face of the entire Wei Dynasty.
Every time they think of one, they have to transcribe it on paper, and then submit it to Chuci and Yang Tixue for the primary selection, and finally Taifu Wen will make a decision.
In addition to thinking about the topic, everyone will also chat in private.Somehow, someone talked about marriage.
Among those present, Chu Ci was the youngest.An official was about to make fun of Chu Ci when he was stopped by the people next to him.
"Haven't you heard? This Chu Siye ordered Rick's wife, and I'm afraid he won't be able to get married in this life. You still dare to mention this, are you afraid that he will hold grudges?"
"Ah? What's the matter?" The man was dumbfounded. This legendary fate actually appeared.
"Yeah, I heard that too, I heard that he almost killed a girl!" The person who listened for a long time came over.
"Isn't that right? How did I hear that two of them have been killed?" Another one also came over.
"What you said is not right. You obviously killed a whole family. I heard it was burnt to death. That's a tragedy!" The man sighed, as if he had seen it at the scene.
"..."
Although rumors don't have long legs, they spread very quickly.There was not a single high-ranking official in this hall, and it was spread to ten, ten to hundreds in an instant, and soon it reached the ears of the doctors of the Imperial College.
They looked at each other with astonishment in their eyes, and thought to themselves, no wonder Chu Siye was so unhappy when he heard Feng Mo's child call him Shigong, it turned out that he was in love with the scene!He can't get married, so naturally he won't have children.
Some people also said that after hearing that Chu Siye was very kind to his nephew, he probably regarded his nephew as his own son in his heart!
It turned out that some people were very jealous of Chu Ci, but after hearing about this, they all turned to sympathy.
Chu Ci was a little baffled by their weird eyes, and he didn't know what was going on.There was still a person who couldn't bear it anymore and came to comfort him, and then he knew the truth.
Chu Ci couldn't help but pretend to be depressed for the time being.
When Yang Tixue and Wen Taifu arrived, they were a little surprised at why the atmosphere in the venue was so low.Before they could ask, there was a sycophant who told the story of Chu Siye's grammy of his wife vividly. His professionalism was even better than that of storytellers in the streets and alleys.
After hearing this, Mrs. Wen suddenly realized, and then sighed: "So that's how it is."
"Teacher, from your tone, you seem to know something?" Yang Tixue was a little curious.
"At the beginning, I wanted to talk about marriage for Chu Siye, but he tried his best to evade it, but it didn't work out. I was a little surprised at the time, I don't know why he avoided getting married like a snake, but it turned out that he didn't want to hurt those innocent women! It's so kind."
Once Mr. Wen's words spread, it basically helped Chuci prove the truth.Tianhe Emperor, who had some doubts at first, completely dispelled the doubts in his heart after hearing about it.
When it was convenient for Chu Ci to go out, Mrs. Wen ordered them not to poke people's sore spots, and never mention these things that have nothing to do with official business when they go to the government.
After Chu Ci came back, seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was no longer so weird, he felt a little more comfortable. He picked up the topics they presented, and sat down with Mrs. Wen and Yang Tixue to discuss them. superior.
The candlelight flickered, the shadows of people shuttled back and forth, and the night passed quickly.When the sky turned pale, Chu Ci finally closed his notebook, covered his mouth and yawned.
He twisted his tired neck, turned his head to look, and saw that the chairs around him were lying swaying here and there. If Chu Ci hadn't asked someone to bring a brazier in at night, a large number of people would probably have to take sick leave the next day.
Mrs. Wen was exhausted when he passed the house last night. He was too old to stay up all night, but he still insisted on staying here, and was persuaded by Chu Ci and everyone to go back.As soon as the Taifu left, Yang Ti stood up on his back. He said a lot of words in a high-sounding manner, and the central idea was, you stay tuned, I'm going back to sleep.
Chu Ci stood up, his legs and feet were numb from sitting for too long, and accidentally bumped into a chair beside him.
The sound alarmed the people sleeping in the hall, and everyone opened their eyes in a daze, looking at the source of the sound.
"Everyone worked hard last night. The issue of the topic has come to an end. Let's go back and have a good rest." After Chu Ci finished speaking, he walked out.
He asked people to send the selected dozens of questions to Taifu Wen, and Taifu Wen selected fifty questions from them.
After staying up all night, he has to go back to the Imperial College to catch up on sleep.
Chu Ci raised the question and walked forward slowly.When Dahu sent him here yesterday, he let him go back, so there is no car to sit in now.
Since he traveled here, he has never stayed up overnight.Even at the time of the provincial and general examinations, he guaranteed at least seven hours of sleep.Fortunately, he is only 21 now, otherwise, he would probably die of sleepiness.
Chu Ci covered his mouth with his hands, and yawned sideways, so as not to be seen by passers-by.
Someone suddenly laughed not far away, Chu Ci was a little curious, looked over there, and happened to meet that person's gaze.
The man was dressed in red, and his attire looked a bit pompous. Seeing that Chu Ci was also looking at him, he rolled his eyes, smiled and waved to Chu Ci with a very warm expression.
Chu Ci didn't know him at first, but after he smiled, he recognized those peach blossom eyes. This person seems to be a certain cousin of Kou Jing.
When Chu Ci was thinking about whether to go up to say hello, the man walked over by himself.
"Chu Siye, hello, I'm Kou Xun. I've heard about you for a long time. I happened to meet you today, so I came up to say hello. Chu Siye won't blame me for being presumptuous?" Kou Xun blinked at Chu Ci, looking a little frivolous.
"Of course not. Brother Kou is Brother Jing's cousin, right? I seem to have seen you at the school grounds." Chu Ci replied with a smile, reminding him that he recognized him.
Kou Xun smiled playfully, said the word "Brother Jing" a few times in his heart, put away his previous slutty look, and said, "Why is Chu Siye walking here alone so early in the morning? "
At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and there were few pedestrians on the street, so Kou Xun saw Chu Ci as soon as he opened the curtain of the car.
"I just came out of Tixue Dao and I'm going back to the Imperial College. Why did Brother Kou go out so early in the morning?"
"I work in the Ministry of Industry. I had something to sleep over there last night, so I will go back now. Since we met, why don't you ask Kou to give Chu Siye a ride?"
"Chu is so disrespectful." Chu Ci smiled, and generously boarded the carriage with him. He was actually a little guilty in his heart. He didn't expect this person to be from the Ministry of Industry, and he didn't know which aspect he was studying.
After getting into the carriage, Chu Ci probably knew about it.This person must be someone who studies the use of utensils, and looks a bit like someone who studies hidden weapons in mechanisms, because there are too many hidden compartments in this carriage!
I don't know where this person pressed, a partition popped up in the carriage to be used as a table.He pressed left and right again, and took out dim sum, teapot, stove, charcoal and other things from those hidden compartments, and then started to cook tea in this compartment.
Kou Xun looked at Chu Ci and found that he was looking at these things from time to time, so he said with a smile: "I have not been doing business since I was a child, specializing in these strange and obscene skills, which made Chu Siye laugh."
"How could this not be doing business properly? It would be nice to have more of such wonderful skills that benefit the people! I wonder if Brother Kou sells a carriage of the same style?" Chu Ci also wanted to change a carriage.He found that Kou Xun's carriage not only had secrets hidden in it, but also had better shock resistance than other carriages, so it was just right for him.
Kou Xun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "Chu Siye is really a wonderful person, although there is only one carriage, but I can help you make one."
"Then thank you, Brother Kou. When the time comes, you can tell me the cost, and I will send someone to send it to you."
"Based on the relationship between you and Ah Jing, how can I take your money? If that kid finds out, he won't have to cut me with a pair of sharp eyes."
"Brother Kou was joking, brother Jing has a gentle temperament, how could he act like this?" Chu Ci felt that Kou Xun had said too much.
Kou Xun snickered, and said: "He has nothing to do with gentleness. This kid has been serious since he was a child. No matter who he looks at, he always has a cold face, and he is impatient to say a few more words. He also has many eccentricities. He never let people wait close to him, and never slept with others. We all said that if this kid gets married in the future, even the bride will not be able to go to his bed."
Chu Ci wondered, is this the same person as the Kou Jingjing he knew?Although Kou Jing doesn't have much expression on her face, her eyes are full of tenderness. Not letting others wait on her shows that she has a good tutor and a good man who does everything by himself!It's normal not to sleep with others, which big man would want to sleep with others all day long?It's not a friendship between girls.
Moreover, he and Kou Jing slept on the couch not once or twice, and he has never seen Kou Jing feel unwell.Besides, Kou Jing might not have the chance to get married, so there is no need for these people to worry about it!
When Kou Xun saw his indifferent face, he became more determined in his original judgment.Just as he was about to add some more oil and vinegar, Chu Ci reminded him that the tea was already brewed.
Kou Xun knew what he meant, so he changed the topic along with the pouring of tea.Along the way, the two drank tea and ate snacks. The atmosphere was very harmonious, not like someone they just met today.
The car stopped at the gate of the Imperial Academy, and after Chu Ci bid farewell to Kou Xun, he watched his carriage go away.Suddenly someone called him from behind, and when he looked back, it turned out that Kou Jing was riding a horse and coming from the other side.Chu Ci stood there waiting for him. After Kou Jing got off the horse, he led the horse and walked to Chu Ci.
"Huaijin, how could you..." Kou Jing frowned, and wanted to ask him directly, but she was afraid of making him unhappy by meddling too much.
"I want to ask where I went last night and why I came back at this time?" Chu Ci raised his head and looked at him with a smile on his face, obviously in a good mood.
Kou Jing nodded.
"Yesterday, I was selected by the Holy Spirit to be the tester for tomorrow's competition. I stayed up all night in Tixue Dao yesterday, but I was trapped to death!" Chu Ci yawned again, with his mouth wide open. Kou Jingjing reminded him that this Only then did he realize that the tiredness on his face was very obvious.
"Then you go up and rest quickly." Kou Jing felt a little distressed, Huai Jin was always sleepy, how could she stay up all night?
"The mountain gate is so high, I can't climb it anymore." Chu Ci wrinkled his nose with disgust on his face.
"I'll carry you up!" Kou Jing let the horse go, patted its neck, let it graze by itself, then turned around and squatted down in front of Chu Ci.
A triumphant smile appeared on Chu Ci's face, he leaned over to Kou Jing's back, and put his arms around his neck.
When Chu Ci was a child, he always wanted someone to carry him on his back.Every time after school, other classmates are carried home by grandpa or father, so he can only walk back by himself.Although the road is not far away, he is still very envious of other people's parents who can come to pick them up.It doesn't matter even if you don't carry it, just hold his hand and ask about what happened in the school, or you can buy him some snacks as a surprise on the way like other parents, then he will definitely would be very happy.
After Chu Ci lay down, Kou Jing held Chu Ci's legs and stood up, step by step up the steps.Kou Jing walked very steadily, but also very slowly. He hoped that the steps could be longer, and then longer, preferably until the end of this life, so that he would never have to put the person behind him down for the rest of his life...
At that time, he was working overtime in the yamen with Tixue Dao, Guozijian and other academies. It must be incomplete for him to come up with the question alone.
Everyone racked their brains to think about the topic, and everyone knew that this matter was related to the court. If the topic was not well chosen, it would damage the face of the entire Wei Dynasty.
