Dao fruit.

Jiannan Daofu Yamen, study room in the backyard.

Listening to the reports from her subordinates, Liu Jing frowned: "You mean, before you could stop them, Li Qi came to the scene in person and stopped the crowd with His Majesty's orders?"

"Yes, the situation was a little critical at that time. I saw that the situation was not good, and was about to step forward. I never thought..."

When the two subordinates heard the question, they recounted what happened in front of the Gongyuan Gate. The more they talked, Liu Jing frowned more tightly.

"This Li Qi is really not to be underestimated. He is more than 01:30 points better than that Xiang. He actually went out in person, and he even got an order from the Holy Majesty. He really wants to win over Qiu Yan..."

Thinking of this, he got up from his seat and turned around the room, looking a little irritable.

Seeing this, the staff next to him stood up and said, "My lord, I heard that Qiu Yan studied from his father and did not worship under any great Confucianism. Juren, next spring I will go to the capital for the imperial examination, so naturally I need to be good at learning, if my lord has the heart, why don't you write a book, let Qiu Sheng and the young master worship Dongdu Lizong together, so that it will be perfect for him."

Hearing this, Liu Jing's eyes lit up, she stroked her beard and smiled and said: "What Ming Kang said is very true. Qiu Yan is a talented person from Sichuan, but the test has gathered talents from all over the world. It is not easy to stand out. However, if you can Studying under the great Confucianism, there are a few more chances, and the ranking in the exam can better demonstrate the education of the Shu. Well, I will write a book now."

After finishing the words, he sat back in the chair, spread out the paper, and polished the pen.

………………

On the other side, in the private room of Yuexia Restaurant, the atmosphere is dignified.

Fang Ziyan and Mr. Li sat across the table.

"Let me serve Qiu Yan tea and confess my mistake?" Fang Ziyan's expression was uneasy, and it took a long time before he squeezed out a sentence.

"Did Mr. Li make a mistake? Why should I admit my mistake to that Qiu Yan? And I have to lower myself?"

The juniors have always served tea to the elders. This serving of tea to admit their mistakes can be described as a complete low profile, often used to show sincerity.Fang Ziyan is arrogant, how can he bear it?

Mr. Li smiled and said: "Mr. Fang, Ming people don't speak dark words. This time the township examination released the rankings, and there was almost a disturbance. You and I know the reason behind it. Even Qiu Yan has already guessed it. My lord mentioned it."

"Wait!" Fang Ziyan's complexion changed, and he interrupted hastily. "Qiu Yan mentioned it to Lord Yushi face to face? What do you mean? Could it be that Qiu Yan went to visit Yushi's mansion?"

"It seems that you don't know anything," Mr. Li shook his head, "Do you think that Qiu Yan took Jie Yuan this time because of Qi Zhengyuan?"

Fang Ziyan raised his eyebrows, and said proudly: "Isn't it? I have seen Qiu Yan's previous articles. They are plain and unpretentious, and lack of rhetoric. I can write such an article when I was ten years old. If it weren't for Qi Zhengyuan, how could Qiu Yan understand it?" Yuan?"

After hearing this, Mr. Li laughed instead: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, you are the Imperial Examination for the imperial court. Is it the Shilin Poetry Contest? His Qiu Yan's policy question quelled the war in the Southwest and reached heaven. , Even the Holy Majesty praised him as a talented person in the country. With this comment, it is said that there is a lack of writing, even if the sentence is incomprehensible. Which article is qualified to surpass it?"

"What do you mean?" Fang Ziyan's eyes showed surprise, "The Holy One praised Qiu Yan? When did it happen?"

"This matter is not a secret. Now the disaster of the marsh people is about to subside, and it should spread all over Sichuan in a short time." Mr. Li didn't intend to hide it. "You should already know about the marsh bandits. , but do you know why this raid was quelled so quickly?"

"Could it be because of...Qiu Yan?" Fang Ziyan is not stupid, but was dazzled by the false name. Now that he heard this, his heart was shocked, but he became a little clearer. Thinking of what the other party said just now, he immediately figured out the reason, "Could it be Is it his strategy?"

Fang Ziyan's face was slightly distorted, with an expression of disbelief.

"Exactly, that's all I'm going to say here. This serving of tea is actually a way to make progress by retreating. A man can bend and stretch. Even if it's revenge, it's not too late in ten years. Why worry about it for a while?" Mr. Li stood up and said goodbye. go.

Fang Ziyan even forgot to send him off, sitting in the room, in a trance.

"One piece of military strategy? To quell the military disaster? To reach heaven? How is this possible? In this way, how can I compare with him? Am I not as good as him?" At the end, he whispered, his voice was dry.

At this time, someone knocked on the door that hadn't been closed yet. Before Fang Ziyan could respond, the person who knocked on the door came in, but it was a young scholar.

It's just that Fang Ziyan saw this person's face clearly, and his demeanor changed dramatically.

"Qiu Yan! What are you doing here?"

"Brother Fang, don't be impatient." The person who walked in was Qiu Yan. He seemed to be meeting an old friend. While talking, he sat down and looked at Fang Ziyan across the table. In return."

"Return?" Fang Ziyan frowned.

"That's right," Qiu Yan exuded a faint aura as he spoke, filling the entire room and infiltrating Fang Ziyan's heart unknowingly, "Brother Fang has provoked several times, and now he is provoking others even more. If you want to initiate a civil uprising, just think about it Qiu A certain reputation, I ask myself that I have no grievances or enmities with you, why do you want to frame me like this?"

Fang Ziyan's face suddenly changed, and he said sharply: "What are you talking about? Don't talk about it!"

"Right and wrong, you and I know each other well. Qiu said that I'm only here to reciprocate. I, Qiu Yan, have no intention of fighting in the officialdom, but I can't let others decide. Since you made a move, you have to pay the corresponding price... "

As he said that, he raised his hand and grasped falsely, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone not far away flew in the air and landed on the table in front of the two of them.

Seeing this strange scene, Fang Ziyan was startled and wanted to get up, but after this movement, he found that he was so weak that it was difficult to stand up!

"What's going on! What the hell are you trying to do!"

At this time, he finally realized that the situation was out of control, but he remained calm and asked in a deep voice.

Qiu Yan didn't answer the question and said, "Brother Fang, how long has it been since you calmed down and comprehended the classics?"

Fang Ziyan didn't know why, so he looked at Qiu Yan coldly, without saying a word.

"I heard that Brother Fang became famous at a young age and was praised by many Confucian scholars. His poetry and prose are far superior to those of Tongji. However, in recent years, he has been obsessed with fame and fortune, immersed in the flattery and praise of others. Whenever there is a poetry meeting or a literary meeting, you can always find it. Your figure..."

Hearing this, Fang Ziyan finally couldn't help but said, "What do you want to say?"

Qiu Yan smiled slightly, held the pen and dipped it in the ink, started to write, flipped his wrist, the pen was blown by wind, within a few breaths, he wrote an article in one breath.

Withdrawing the brush and blowing the ink, the words on the paper are condensed and dried up, and the words are full of flesh and blood.It contains charm, and there is an inexplicable aura hidden in it, exuding a sense of evil and strangeness.

After writing this article, Qiu Yan flipped his wrist and pushed it in front of Fang Ziyan.

"This is……"

Fang Ziyan looked at the text on the paper, and was stunned. The evil breath in the text rose immediately, turning into strands of black mist, and penetrated into Fang Ziyan's body along the seven orifices.Seep into the heart.

In the past when he was a teenager, he has been romantic and famous in recent years, and he missed the township examination this time.He was even warned by the censor...

In an instant, various scenes crossed in Fang Ziyan's pupils, and he froze completely in place.

originally.After the ranking came out, Fang Ziyan was shaken, and then Mr. Li said.It left him in a state of surprise, but the appearance of Qiu Yan made his mood flustered, and the article in front of him completely broke his defenses.

This article is like a nail, breaking the soul and breaking the heart.

Qiu Yan got up silently, turned and walked outside.

"Since I want to abolish my reputation, then I won't kill you. I just ruined your reputation, ruined your future, and messed up your will! It will also save you from entanglements and energy in the officialdom in the future."

After thinking about it, he stepped out and was recognized by Fang Ziyan's Tong as Qiu Yan.

"Why did you enter my young master's room without asking me to report..." the book boy said, but was suddenly interrupted by a scream!

Then, there was a crash, as if the table had been knocked over.

The book boy was startled, and recognized Fang Ziyan's voice, he couldn't care less about other things, he rushed into the room, and saw the table turned over, the pen and ink fell to the ground, staining a large area of ​​the floor black.

Fang Ziyan lay limp in the corner, baring his teeth and waving his claws, as if chasing something away, chanting "I didn't hurt Zhongyong, I didn't hurt Zhongyong" as if suffering from hysteria.

"My lord, what's the matter with you?" The book boy hurried forward, but was kicked away by Fang Ziyan, and fell down beside the table, just in time to see the piece of paper that fell on the ground, on which was written an article.

With a glance, the book boy knew the general content, but he was talking about a young prodigy, who was lost in the praise when he was young, and finally became an adult, but disappeared from everyone.

This article is full of narration, without reasoning, but it is vaguely alluded to.

"This article..."

The scholar was startled, and Fang Ziyan, who seemed to be insane, realized the seriousness of the problem.

"No, this article was written by Qiu Yan. It messed up my young master's state of mind. If it spreads out, others will think it was written for my young master! Your reputation will be ruined!"

Thinking of this, he stretched out his hand to tear up the article, but it was too late, the movement in the room had already attracted the attention of outsiders, and several enthusiastic people even rushed into the room to lend a helping hand.

One of them helped the bookboy up with a single stroke.

………………

"Although Fang Ziyan was slack, he still didn't hurt Zhongyong, but that article broke his heart and used soul methods and demons to make him hurt Zhongyong."

When Qiu Yan returned to the inn, it was already late, he first talked to Zhou Guan and others, and then opened the door.

"Ok?"

The opening of the door made him feel an unusual smell.

"who?"

He asked aloud, but soon caught a familiar breath, and he knew it in his heart.

Swish!

The lights in the room ignite by themselves.

A figure stood by the wall, it was Zheng Zhongsen, and behind Zheng Zhongsen stood a half-grown man, hiding behind Zheng Zhongsen, carefully looking at Qiu Yan.

It was actually a child who looked only seven or eight years old.

Qiu Yan's pupils shrank, his perception enveloped him, and he immediately caught a faint demonic and divine aura from this young boy.

"Brother Zheng, are you...?" He raised his eyes to look at Zheng Zhongsen. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!
