The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 340 The Girl in Action
Ten feet away from Zhongcheng East Street, there was no sign of anyone, and two rows of guards armed with weapons blocked the entrance and exit passages.

This place is called East Street, which is actually the eastern part of Midtown, where families with thirteen surnames live in six counties.The history of these thirteen surnames can be traced back to the first three hundred years of the Yan Dynasty.

On weekdays, the East Street patrols are all formed by people from families with thirteen surnames. Even in the middle of the night, this place is not desolate. Therefore, some people in Kyoto joked: [The night is quiet, and the main sleep street is also awake; The group of lights is as bright as day, and the rooster wonders when it will crow. 】

But at this time, the East Street is still quiet, the watchmen and the priests are gone, only a team of guards blowing whistles come and go occasionally.

"Didn't you say that you will send people after you have the results? Why is this group of people blowing the whistle endlessly, which makes people feel flustered." In the Yuanfu in the middle of the East Street, a group of people were sitting in the main hall of the second entrance. , are all the heads of each house in the original clan.

The person who spoke was the elder of the clan, and the person who spoke was the head of the Yuan family.

The head of the Yuan clan listened carefully, and felt that the tune was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard it from somewhere.

"Father, my eldest niece used to practice this instrument in the mansion. At that time, you thought she played the suona, and you said that it would be good to play a hundred birds facing the phoenix. There is no need to play those whimpering tunes. It sounds weird. .”

When the second master of the Yuan family said this, the head of the Yuan clan immediately understood: "That's what happened, the eldest girl said it was Qianqi's musical instrument, called, called..."

"Call Qi Whistle."

As soon as his son reminded him, the Yuan clan head nodded: "Yes, it is such an instrument."

What he was talking about at that time was yin and yang, the eldest son was still there, and he was very protective of the girl. He thought that sooner or later the patriarch would be the eldest son, and the eldest son could discipline the girl as he liked, so as to save him from changing the order in the future.

I just don't want the eldest son to leave before him!Now that the eldest son is keeping his filial piety, it is not good for him to discipline the eldest son's granddaughter now, so as not to disturb the eldest son's soul.

Well now, if the former Qi Dynasty replaced Chu, the rules would naturally change, and then he would have an excuse to restrain the girls in the mansion, so as not to be like his grandfather who was unkind.

Thinking of this, Yuan Clan Chief's sadness disappeared in a flash, and he ordered the housekeeper to arrange some snacks for the little girls in the backyard.

In the inner hall of the wing room of the third entrance courtyard, sixteen granddaughters of Yuan's fifth house are all entertaining together. Yuan Shuting, the eldest daughter of the house, brings her younger sisters to write and draw on the table and soft couch.

The butler arranged for a group of maidservants to come over with more than a dozen trays of dim sum. Seeing this scene, she nodded in relief and said to herself, this is what a noble daughter of an aristocratic family should do. My master would be happy if he knew about it.

Seeing him coming, the girls of the Yuan clan put away the papers without haste, and talked to him slowly, and when they heard that it was their grandfather's wishes, they all saluted respectfully and asked the housekeeper to thank them for them.

After the steward left, the confidant maid locked the door, and the youngest Liu Niang stroked her chest and said fearfully: "That old house bird has the sharpest eyes, I was so scared that I couldn't breathe just now! Fortunately, he didn't see it!"

As she said that, she snuggled up to her elder sister and said softly, "Ah Xing and the others have listened to it many times, and after double-checking, it's the song. That's right, sister, can you translate it?"

Yuan Shuting nodded: "The translation is already in my heart."

When she said this, all the sisters held their breaths and looked together.

Yuan Shuting's eyes slowly slid across the crowd: "We sisters have been together for more than ten years, and we have never had any bad things. Even if we bicker and fight occasionally, if we get annoyed, it's just a little sister's anger. Heaven will be reconciled.

Therefore, there are few secrets between us, just like the whistle, I have never kept it from you, and you have never leaked it.

People say that sisters have this life and no afterlife, so I hope that the friendship of all sisters can continue as before. Even if there are those who are afraid of the consequences, they can retreat and be ignorant, but they must not betray the sisters. Betrayal of the friendship ruins the future. "

She spoke so earnestly that many sisters were not convinced: "Big sister, who is looking down on you! Our youngest is seven or eight years old, how can we not understand such a truth? Big sister just orders, we promise not to ask." The reason, just follow it!"

"Fifth Sister is right! To say something that makes the eldest sister and the younger sister sad, since the eldest uncle left, the atmosphere in the mansion has become more and more strange!
My dad was afraid of my uncle back then, and he always acted in line with my uncle. At that time, our sisters lived a happy life!But since... my father watched the second uncle's actions again, the second uncle was not bad, but he valued his grandfather's eyes very much.

Not to mention that we were not allowed to participate in many activities, my son even gave us a copy of the Four Children's Books as a gift, which made us so angry that we didn't eat properly all day. "Yuan Sanniang waved her fist resentfully.

Yuan Liuniang followed closely and nodded: "That's right! The Four Books for Women is still a trivial matter. What's frightening is that the Yuan clan actually committed disobedience! If they succeed, we will follow in the footsteps of the women of the former Qi Dynasty. What else is there in this life?" Is it fun? If it doesn’t work out, the Emperor of Chu will settle the case, and we will have to hang ourselves, in order to get clean and clean, so as not to fall into the mud of the Qin Tower and Chu Pavilion, or be exiled for thousands of miles and suffer.”

As soon as she said this, the eyes of all the sisters turned red.

Yuan Erniang choked up and said: "Although we don't have the ability of the elder sister to remember with a photograph, we can still hear a few words from the music score. The elder sister just orders, and we will be able to do it."

She turned to look at the other sisters: "Don't say anything about the family, don't say that the original clan is one, just explain that everyone knows that the former Qi is incompetent, even if there is no Da Chu, there is also A Rong Hushi. They cooperated with A Rong this time." , is to seek skin with a tiger!

If things really come true, I am afraid that the people of the Central Plains will fall into A Rong's conquest and slavery. We will do our best to not only redeem the crime, but also try to turn the tide from the crisis.

The dispute between Qi and Chu is nothing but the orthodox dispute in the Central Plains, which provokes A Rong, who can be alone!What I wait for is also to leave some incense for the family.

What's more, who said that the continuation of family glory depends only on men?If I wait for rebellion, I can make a little bit of contribution and strive for the qualifications for the imperial examination in the future. I can't say that it will add luster to the family!

Sisters, don't forget great righteousness because of petty love, and don't forget great loyalty because of petty righteousness! "

"Second Sister is right!" Sixteen Niang couldn't help patting her palms lightly, excitedly wanting to take notes, and asked her elder sister Yuan Shuting to tap her forehead.

"Our older sisters have all expressed their thoughts. I don't know what the younger sisters think. In this way, our sisters will all close their eyes and count to thirty silently. Leave, my elder sister promises with her credibility that after tonight, the sisters will get along as usual, even if we get things done, I will never underestimate, criticize, or betray the sister who is silent today."

After Yuan Shuting finished speaking, regardless of the expressions of the fifteen younger sisters, she closed her eyes first: "I'll count to dozens first, sisters close your eyes, after counting, let's officially time the time! I can start!"

When the others heard the words, they couldn't help sighing, and closed their eyes, and even a few smaller ones directly covered their ears.

"...29, thirty!"
