Concubine Biography

Chapter 92

Yipin Tea House in Beijing.

"Brother Chen Shun, are you sure about this imperial examination?" A well-dressed scholar asked with a smile.

Chen Shun is slightly fat, his eyes narrowed when he smiled, and he looked kindly, "I should be sure, but unfortunately, I really don't know. Brother Xu, you don't know me, my knowledge... well, I'm really ashamed .”

Xu Leyong said with a smile, "Brother Chen is too modest. You have learned a lot, but your temper is a bit more free and easy. In fact, you really don't need to stick to the imperial examinations. Being a scholar is more suitable for you."

"Brother Chen, why do you say that, your younger sister is the imperial concubine of the dynasty, if you just ask her, why don't you worry about not being able to get an official position?" Another student said with a half-smile.

"Brother Jiang, don't talk nonsense." Li Dacheng, who had been silent since they came to the teahouse, glanced at Jiang Tao.

Chen Shun said with a smile, "I haven't seen my sister for many years. I always think about her but can't see her, which makes my brother feel very guilty. How can I let her worry about my affairs. Besides, the imperial examination is To select talents for the imperial court, I, Chen Shun, a first-class literati, how could I do such a thing of favoritism and fraud, wouldn’t my reputation be insulted? Moreover, it has been stipulated in previous dynasties that the harem cannot be involved in politics, so Brother Jiang’s words are wrong.”

Xu Leyong glanced at Brother Jiang, and said with a smile, "Brother Chen, you really are, you don't want to ask the imperial concubine to help, but others are willing to ask you to pass the message to the imperial concubine."

Jiang Tao blushed, and asked, "Xu Leyong, what do you mean?"

Xu Leyong smiled slightly, "Literally, why is Brother Jiang so excited?"

"Okay, okay," Chen Shun persuaded one another, "the imperial examination will be held in a few days, let's relax and not hurt our peace."

"Brother Chen, I didn't say it." Jiang Tao glared at Xu Leyong, then looked at Chen Shun and said, "One of your younger sisters is the most favored imperial concubine in the dynasty, and the other is the wife of Da Sima. We don't need to say how noble your status is. Why do you need to take the imperial examination? Even if you pass the exam, as a foreign relative, the emperor will not give you any high-ranking officials. I really don’t know what you are trying to do.”

Chen Shun poured himself a cup of tea and said with a smile, "My sisters live well because our Chen family ancestors accumulated virtues, but what does this have to do with me? I am not taking the imperial examination for an official job. My heart is at ease."

"Brother Jiang's words are strange. Why can't Brother Chen, as a foreign relative, take the imperial examination? He took the imperial examination just to fulfill his long-cherished wish for many years, and to study hard for decades. Brother Jiang doesn't even understand this, really You claim to be brother Chen's friend in vain." Xu Leyong shook his head disapprovingly.

Jiang Tao snorted, "One of you is a foreign relative, and the other is a child of a scholarly family. You are born richer than ordinary people. You don't just get what you want. It's natural for me to think like this. I think you have the same idea as me. There are not a few people, so why does Brother Xu target me everywhere?"

Xu Leyong smiled disdainfully, "It's a market opinion."

"You..." Jiang Tao stood up abruptly, "Scholar can be killed and cannot be humiliated. Brother Xu humiliated me so much today. I really can't accept it. Let me go!"

Jiang Tao stood up angrily and left.

Chen Shun watched him go out in embarrassment, and just wanted to get up to chase after him, but was held down by Li Dacheng, "There is no need to go if we don't agree with each other."

Xu Leyong nodded again and again, "That's right, ignore him, come on, let's continue talking."

Chen Shun was a little embarrassed, "This is not good, no matter how you say he is our friend."

"How can there be a friend who thinks about your relationship every day? It's okay not to make friends like this." Xu Leyong said.

Li Dacheng nodded in agreement.

"I heard that your brother-in-law is Shi Guang who was strongly recommended by Hexi County? I heard that he is an extraordinary person. My husband said that with Shi Guang's talent, he will definitely be in the top three this time." Xu Leyong sighed, "Tell me At this level, being able to enter the second class is considered a blessing from the ancestors."

"Brother Xu, don't say that, we will definitely do it!" Chen Shun nodded vigorously, full of hope.

"Let's go, go back and read the book again." Li Dacheng stood up and said.

Chen Shun and Xu Leyong also stood up and went downstairs to pay the bill. Chen Shun said with a smile as he walked, "Whether we can go to high school or not, we will come here to meet again later!"

"That's natural!" Xu Leyong shook the clothes on Dou's body.

Li Dacheng smiled slightly and just nodded. He has always been quiet.

Chen Shun turned around, but he didn't pay attention to the carriage galloping behind him.

"Woo--" the coachman pulled the reins tightly, the horse was forced to stop, the car body shook violently, and there was a sound of thud inside, the coachman opened his mouth and cursed, "You don't have long eyes! Fuck you! You don't look when you walk Road? Are those tricks you have used to vent your anger?"

Xu Leyong and Li Dacheng rushed forward to pull up Chen Shun, who was knocked down by the horse. Xu Leyong was not happy, and pointed to the coachman and said, "Keep your mouth clean! You are the one who bumped into someone from behind and still uttered wild words! Be careful of us!" Report to the government and let the Yamen punish you for the crime of riding a horse!"

"Who the hell is yelling?" The curtain of the carriage was raised, Su Er rubbed his head and got out of the car, "What are you yelling about? Dare to stop the carriage of Lord Ben? Go! Anyone who stops me will get out of him." Step on it!"

The coachman got the words, snorted and raised his whip to leave. Li Dacheng reacted quickly, and quickly stepped forward to pull the reins, "You will have to pay for hitting someone! Don't even think about leaving!"

Chen Shun rubbed his leg, it hurt a little, it might be twisted, he thought to himself.

"I didn't want to get entangled with you, but your attitude is not acceptable. You have to apologize to me today, or we'll see you at the government." Chen Shun looked at Su Er.

Su Er smiled, "Hey, which family are you from? How dare you ask Master Hou to apologize to you! Kneel down and kowtow quickly, Master Hou, I will spare you!"

"We are all people with fame and fame. How can we allow you to be humiliated like this! What about the Marquis? There are so many Marquis in the capital who have never seen someone as arrogant as you! You have to make up for it today, otherwise we will not be as arrogant as you are! It's not over!"

"That's right, otherwise this matter will never end!"

After Chen Shun finished speaking, Xu Leyong followed suit.

Su Er supported the coachman's hand and staggered down, hiccupped heavily, and came forward to look at Chen Shun and the three of them for a long time, "Hey, do I apologize to you? Master Hou is afraid that you won't be able to bear it! Your life will be shortened!"

Su Er waved his hand, and said disgustedly like chasing flies, "Master Ben feels uncomfortable after losing money today, so hurry up and leave while Master Hou and I don't want to do anything yet, get out!"

"What? You still want to make a move?" Chen Shun cocked his neck and directly met Su Er.

There were more and more people watching around, and everyone pointed at Su Er, the coachman saw that he was a little bit uncomfortable, so he hurriedly stepped forward to talk to Su Er, "Master Hou, if you don't forget, there are more and more people here. It's..."

"Get lost! Master Hou wants to see how capable these boys are!" Su Er turned around and pulled out a sword from the carriage, pointing at Chen Shun and the others, "Hurry up and get out! One more word, Master Hou's sword can No eyes!"

Chen Shun said angrily, "You still want to commit murder in the street! This is at the feet of the emperor, do you really think there is no law?"

"Get out!" Su Er kicked Chen Shun in the stomach, kicking Chen Shun to the ground, Xu Leyong's face changed drastically when he saw this, and he was about to grab Su Er, but was kicked by Su Er with a roundabout kick When he reached the side, Li Dacheng shook hands and swung at Su Er. Su Er raised his sword, and Li Dacheng had a cut in his arm.

"Idiot!" Su Er shouted coldly, how many powerless scholars dare to fight him?Tired of life!

"Bold!" Chen Shun struggled to get up from the ground, "How dare you commit crimes in the street? See if I don't have a memorial for you! Let the emperor cut your title and put you in prison!"

"Student anger!" Su Er sneered, shook his dizzy head, turned and walked back, "Go, go back home!"

Xu Leyong also pointed at Chen Shun and said, "Don't even think about running away! Do you know who he is? The current imperial concubine is his own sister. If you beat up your relatives, the emperor will definitely punish you!"

"What?" Su Er tilted his head and turned around, walking up to Xu Leyong, "What did you say?"

"I said you have committed a serious crime by beating your relatives!" Xu Leyong said angrily.

Su Er turned around and looked Chen Shun up and down, "Are you the brother of that woman in Zhaoyang Palace? A relative?"

Chen Shun shouted angrily, "Presumptuous! How dare you call the imperial concubine empress that woman! You..."

"Hahaha..." Su Er laughed loudly, "Are you a foreign relative? A concubine's family is also considered a foreign relative? I tell you, I am the queen's younger brother! I am the real foreign relative! Tsk tsk, it is really a narrow road for enemies, In the palace, my sister and your sister are not at odds. Here you are making trouble for me. I think everyone in your Chen family grew up eating shit, right? That’s not the way to seek death. Your sister, imperial concubine? Hahaha ...It's so ridiculous, if you don't rely on that bit of foxy ability, who knows who the bastards those two children are born with...Ah!"

Su Er let out a scream, and Chen Shun rushed forward with a ferocious face and strangled his neck, cursing continuously, "How dare you insult my sister Qingyu! I'll strangle you to death!..."

"Brother Chen!"

Xu Leyong and Li Dacheng were shocked, and rushed forward, one of them grabbed Chen Shun's arm and pulled him out. The three of them were all scholars, and they didn't have much strength, so they tore Chen Shun away in a short while.

"Bastard!" As soon as Chen Shun was torn apart, Su Er kicked Chen Shun on the stomach again and knocked Chen Shun to the ground again, roaring angrily and stabbing straight down with his sword——

Chen Shun clutched his chest, looking at the blood pouring out of his chest in disbelief, Xu Leyong was dumbfounded, Li Dacheng was also dumbfounded, and everyone in the street was dumbfounded.

Only Su Er was still cursing there.

"Kill, kill!" Someone shouted, waking everyone up.

"What did you say?" Fu'er couldn't believe she stepped forward and grabbed the little eunuch's clothes, "Say it again!"

The little eunuch said tremblingly, "Marquis Lin'an killed Mr. Chen! It's at the gate of Yipin Tea House on Shizi Street!"

"You nonsense! How dare he!" Fu'er shook her head hastily, her face pale.

The little eunuch kowtowed, "I dare not hide anything. Marquis of Lin'an and Second Master Chen had an argument for some reason. Marquis of Lin'an killed Second Master Chen with a sword in hand. Everyone in the street can testify that Second Master Chen was sent to My body went numb during the clinic. Now the palace is in chaos, all the students have signed a letter requesting the emperor to execute Lin Anhou, the Chen family is in chaos..."

Fu'er couldn't hear what the little eunuch said afterward, Chen Shun's appearance flashed in her mind, she felt her feet go limp, and her eyes turned black.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" Hua Lian hurriedly supported Fu'er, who was paralyzed, and called Fu'er anxiously.

"I...I want to see the emperor!" Fu'er took a few breaths, stood up abruptly, pushed Hualian, and staggered out.

"Niang Niang!" Hua Lian shouted anxiously, and hurriedly chased out with Xiao Shanzi.

Second brother!How could the second brother die!Why did he die suddenly!It must be fake!This is absolutely not true! ...

Fu'er only felt that her chest was so tight that she almost died, and something made her feel sharp pain, her eyes turned black, and she didn't know whether she had reached the Xuanming Palace or not, as if someone was holding her up in a trance.

"Your Majesty!" Xiao Qinzi supported Fu'er with an anxious expression on his face. After Li Jiarong heard the news, he immediately asked him to guard the Zhaoyang Palace. He just didn't want to pass the news to the noble concubine's ears. We all know.

"I want to see the emperor!" Fu'er shouted sharply, pushing Xiao Qinzi away and running all the way forward.

"Your Majesty!" Fu'er pushed open the gate of Xuanming Hall, and ran to Li Jiarong in a frivolous footstep, "My brother really...really...has gone?"
