My words seemed to have suddenly opened up some strange vein in Jiang Bo's body. As soon as the second brother and Jing Ning left, Jiang Bo immediately stroked his beard, looked at me and Shen Nianjun meaningfully and said: "Say Come to wonder, Ruyu, what is the relationship between you and this brat?"

I was stunned for a moment before I realized that he was calling Shen Nianjun by "Ruyu". I wondered why Shen Nianjun didn't like being called by his first name, which is really feminine.

Shen Nianjun smiled: "This young man is an aboriginal resident here, it just so happens that the life in the inn is not good, and there is no food for the pot. I was also very hungry that day, so I went out to try my luck to find food , but I lost my way at the foot of the iceberg in the north, and almost froze to death there. It was Mr. Wen Yan who rescued me. After that, Mr. Wen Yan often came to the inn to look for me, and I became acquainted after coming and going."

Uncle Jiang nodded while stroking his beard and said, "I can't tell, this kid is still a chivalrous little hero, not bad, he is worthy of our Mr. Xiangfu."

I:"……"

Shen Nianjun didn't seem to understand the weirdness in these words, and smiled nonchalantly.

Jiang Bo waved his hand and said, "Hey, it doesn't matter. Let's talk about the important things first. What are your plans now? After returning to the imperial city with me tomorrow, you won't come back, right?"

I blurted out subconsciously: "What did you say? Why won't you come back?"

Uncle Jiang glanced at me with great interest: "Don't be afraid, the Imperial City is a good place, but it's better than the bitter cold side of your shitless prison. Since you want to, let Ruyu take you along. He After being a Prime Minister, after clearing up the grievances, are you still worried about not being able to find an official position in the imperial city? What's more, Ruyu is smart and quick-witted, and her talent must not be inferior to that of the old prime minister, plus her relationship with the emperor..."

Shen Nianjun didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted directly: "Uncle Jiang, you misunderstood, I don't plan to go back to the imperial city with you tomorrow."

Uncle Jiang looked at him with wide eyes in surprise: "What? You're not going back? Didn't you become addicted to suffering in this place?"

Shen Nianjun sat down at the tea table, and said slowly: "Uncle Jiang, you said just now that my relationship with the emperor is what I hate the most. I think back then, how upright my father was, but just now How many unsavory gossips have been made in secret because of being friends with Lord Jingmu? After so many years, if the son once again used his relationship with the emperor to seek an official, wouldn't it be more true to the rumors seven years ago? ? So, I can't do this, both emotionally and rationally."

Jiang Bo was silent for a long time after hearing Shen Nianjun's words.

After a while, he asked again: "Then... what are you going to do?"

Shen Nianjun asked without answering: "I don't know the four seasons when I pass through the border, but it's autumn in the imperial city now?"

Uncle Jiang nodded: "Yes, it's already late autumn, and it's almost winter."

Shen Nianjun smiled slightly: "That's it. In the spring of next year, I'm going to take the exam."

Uncle Jiang and I spoke in surprise at the same time: "Should you take the test?"

"That's right," Shen Nianjun nodded, "I want to use my own ability to see what level I can pass without the blessing of family background and any relationship with the royal family. I want to use my ability to give me Father and mother are cleared of their grievances. Also give my master, who died in vain, a sigh of relief."

Uncle Jiang was almost stunned, and it took a long time before he raised his hand to wipe away the tears that slipped out unintentionally: "Okay, okay, good boy, you really deserve to be the queen of Xiangye, you really deserve to be brought by Prince Jingmu himself. Apprentice who came out."

Jiang Bo walked up to Shen Nianjun, bent down and hugged him gently, Shen Nianjun smiled slightly, and gently rubbed Jiang Bo's back.

When I heard that Shen Nianjun had no plan to leave immediately, I was pleasantly surprised.

Even I myself find it unbelievable that he and I can only be regarded as meeting by chance at best, and if you want to count, I still owe him a favor.Why am I reluctant to let him leave here at this moment?Besides, I obviously don't want him to stay and return me anything.

My heart was in a mess, and my thoughts were already tangled into a hemp rope that couldn't be untied.

I walked to the door and stood there for a while. The hammock we slept in last night was still hanging between two old plum trees. The wind swayed like water plants at the bottom of a lake.

Shen Nianjun appeared behind me at some point, and when I realized it, I was taken aback by him unexpectedly.

"What are you thinking about?" Shen Nianjun looked at my astonished expression and asked.

"It's nothing." I collected myself and waved my hand at him. "The room is a little stuffy. I'll come out to get some air."

Shen Nianjun smiled and said, "That's good, I thought you had something to do."

"Hey, what can I do, I'm fine." I smiled.

Shen Nianjun said: "Since you are fine, I want to discuss something with you now."

I couldn't help being amused by this tongue-twister-like way of chatting, so I turned my head away and said, "Let's talk."

Even though I have turned my head around, I can still feel Shen Nianjun's gaze staring straight at the back of my head.

"I'm going to take an exam next spring." Shen Nianjun coughed twice, as if deliberately reminding me to listen to him carefully, "So, I want to find a quiet place to study hard. Can you...let me Can Luomeipo borrow a night?"

I turned my head back again and looked at him in surprise. I never thought that what he wanted to discuss with me was to come to my place to stay overnight... So I really didn't realize what was going on for a while.

Shen Nianjun seemed a little embarrassed by my reaction, and asked tentatively, "Can... can I...?"

I nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes, of course."

Shen Nianjun smiled relaxedly and said: "It seems that I have to owe you a favor again. I'm really sorry."

"It's okay," I lowered my head and said, "It's just that if you don't help at the inn, will the proprietress agree? And don't you usually teach Miao Miao how to read?"

Shen Nianjun smiled and said: "Don't worry, she will agree. I am going to the imperial city to take the exam, and all she wants is to go to the imperial city to find a husband. If I can go, it will give her hope, and she will definitely not refuse." of."

I nodded: "That's true. However, how sure do you think this is?"

Shen Nianjun was silent for a moment: "What do you think?"

I hesitated for a moment and lowered my voice: "It's not that I'm sarcastic, I think there's no hope."

Shen Nianjun nodded: "This kind of situation is actually very common. Although scholars are educated, they have to be discouraged. They really did something that was not done by a human. After passing the exam in the prosperous imperial city, they were awarded gold coins. In the area of ​​​​the land, who can still think about the wretched wife at home? That's why Shi Yungui taught her husband to find a marquis."

I shook my head: "We...wouldn't be like this."

I suddenly wanted to cover my mouth, the sentence just now almost became "our wolves will not be like this", when the words came to my mouth, I changed my words abruptly, it seemed strange, Shen Nianjun couldn't help but glanced at me: " you?"

I hurriedly circled back again: "Ah... I mean, people in our family are not like this, and don't think that the bitter and cold border of our border is full of unscrupulous people. People in our family have identified a partner for life. They won't change their minds."

Shen Nianjun smiled: "When did I tell you how your family is doing? I think you are doing well."

I looked at him jokingly and said, "Really?"

Shen Nianjun said very seriously: "Well, really, you are really nice."

But I don't want to care if it's a nice thing to say for the sake of staying overnight or a compliment from the bottom of my heart. In short, listening to Shen Nianjun's nice words really makes me a lot happier.

So, I looked at him with a smile on my face and said, "Uncle Jiang still has to live in the house today, it looks like we'll have to squeeze in hammocks for another night."

Shen Nianjun said: "The hammock is also pretty good, you can watch the stars."

I scoffed, "I didn't see anything last night."

Shen Nianjun said: "That's because there were clouds yesterday, and the stars were covered by the clouds. And last night, they were just looking at the flowers, no one noticed if there were any stars. Today is a sunny day, so there must be many stars. "

I looked up and saw the stars.

Scholars really have extraordinary knowledge, I thought to myself, how about I take advantage of the time Shen Nianjun is staying with me, and read some books with him?

Early the next morning, Uncle Jiang couldn't wait to go to the inn to check and accept my results, to see if Qiao Haisheng really passed away.

But I never expected that my second brother and Jing Ning would also come to see us.

When the three of us were about to go down the mountain, the second brother happened to lead Jingning up.

"Second brother?" I looked at them suspiciously, "Why are you here again?"

"Look at what you said," the second brother shook his fan a little dissatisfied, "Is that why you dislike me?"

"Where is it, I have something to do right now. When I finish my work, I must have a few drinks with my second brother." I started my glib business again.

The second brother waved his hand: "You don't need to drink a few cups, I'm thankful that you can take care of Jingning for me."

I was surprised and said, "What do you mean? Didn't you take care of Jingning?"

"I'm going to take a trip to the imperial city with Uncle Jiang." The second elder brother closed the folding fan with his left hand and put it in the palm of his right hand.

"What?" Now Shen Nianjun couldn't help asking in surprise, "You want to go to the imperial city with Uncle Jiang?"

The second elder brother smiled slightly: "That's right. It would be too dangerous for Uncle Jiang to go alone on this trip. It's better to have someone escort him for the journey. Besides, when I was young, I often went to the imperial city and made many friends there." , this time I go, I also happen to catch up with them, kill two birds with one stone."

There is really nothing wrong with what he said, after all, the second brother traveled to the imperial city with his parents too many times when he was young, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is his second hometown.

"That's fine," I thought for a while, "but you won't be there for too long, will you?"

The second brother waved his hand: "One month at most. Besides, I don't dare to disappear for too long. If the eldest brother knows that I don't take Jing Ning with me and run around like you, he won't give me his magic bow .”

I rolled my eyes: "Who is running around like crazy every day?! It was obviously you and my elder brother who drove me to this hill, besides, I have been here and kept my own place, never going far away ran over."
