I heard that Quan Xiang wants to be good [rebirth]

The triennial examination in Beijing and Central China has always been held in spring.

The south is not like the north. Spring hastily disappeared after a cutscene. The spring in the south is like the fireworks in the book in March, with dazzling flowers and willows.

Over the past few days, scholars wearing long gowns and carrying bags have gradually seen farewell to relatives and friends at the ferry crossing in Huzhou Prefecture, and embarked on a northbound boat.Going east along the water for more than a hundred miles here is the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal built by the previous dynasty.Along the canal all the way north, you can go straight to the capital along the waterway.

According to the past, it was difficult for this gang to take this path.But since the beginning of the year before last, the Shuda people from the capital came here to control the river. In two years, all the evils have been eliminated, and the Haiyan River has been cleared.

"...Three years!" At the ferry, several scholars in long gowns walked towards the side of the boat together.One of the scholars with graying temples sighed. "Three years ago, I was disturbed by the fraud case in the examination room and delayed a generation of candidates in Huzhou. I don't know how much I have suffered in the past three years. Now I can finally go to the examination room safely!"

A candidate next to him responded, "Yes, scholars have worked hard for ten years in the cold window, so how can they afford to wait another three years!"

Another person sighed: "Now I must seize this opportunity, so as not to let these three years go to waste."

At this moment, a scholar next to him said in surprise, "That... seems to be Mr. Shu!"

There is no one in Huzhou who does not know Master Yu Shu.This Huzhou can be called the famous "Shu Daren" without any other titles. There is no one else except Shu Changyu.

After hearing the words, several scholars turned around in a hurry, and saw a person standing gracefully under the willows on the bank.

The man was dressed in a long-sleeved robe of crab-shell blue, a large cloak, and a moon-white cloak that was [-]% old.The man was tall and slender, like a green bamboo, and what stood out most was his handsome appearance.His nose bridge is particularly beautiful, and his eyebrows are also straight. Standing there, his whole body is clear and charming.

There is a jade ring hanging around his waist, the style is ancient and clumsy, it looks like something from the pre-Qin period.But this thing hung on his body, but it didn't look obtrusive at all, and it almost blended with his clear and calm temperament.

It's really Mr. Shu.

Shu Zhangyu stood under the willow tree, and in front of him was Fang Yuqian who went to Beijing to retake the exam, let him untie his knot, and saved his life.

"This time, Fang Lang must go to high school, so he won't be in vain!" Shu Changyu smiled and cupped his hands, then took Fang Yuqian's package from Kong Qing's hand at his side, and handed it to him.

"I will definitely live up to the high expectations of my respected ministers!" Fang Yuqian replied with a smile.

Fang Yuqian's family is in Huzhou Prefecture, and it can be regarded as a local scholarly and famous family.When Shu Changyu came here, he meticulously showed his friendship as a landlord and took care of Shu Changyu a lot.The two of them originally had similar views, they could be called confidants, so they became close friends in a short period of time, like brothers and sisters.

"Then you have to be more careful on the road." Shu Changyu nodded. "Although this waterway is smoother than the land road, water and fire are ruthless. Don't worry on the way, take your time, there is always plenty of time."

Fang Yuqian nodded yes, then paused, and asked: "Jingchen, you have not been home for three years since you came to Huzhou the year before last. Now that the flood in Huzhou has basically been resolved, you don't have to worry too much, and you will return to Beijing as soon as possible. Come back and reunite with your family."

Shu Changyu heard the words, and was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly a person appeared in his heart.

The man blocked himself in the dark carriage, gritted his teeth and told himself to wait.But he waited for three years, but he didn't get any news, not even a letter.

On the contrary, from the news that he sent someone to investigate back from Beijing, he could learn about his situation from a few words.

It took Shu Changyu three years to tame the turbulent and unruly water of the Yellow River, and won praise from Huzhou and even the imperial court and a good reputation all over the world; while Jing Mu only took three years to tame the unruly water of the imperial court. In his own hands, it can be said that it has shocked the world.

In the first year of Shu Chang Yu's departure, Dali Temple has cracked several cases, many of which involved the family roots of the Queen, Concubine Hui and others.This move caused panic among the people in the court, and many ministers gradually began to secretly seek refuge with Jing Mu for asylum.

In the winter of the same year, the Huns in the north aggressively invaded Yumen Pass.Jing Mu took the initiative to invite Ying, led a large army to support, defeated the Xiongnu, retreated more than [-] li, and regained the five cities in northern Saibei that had been lost by the previous dynasty. The court was shocked.

Now, Jing Muhu is in the military department, holding most of the military power's tiger talisman in his hand, and his power spreads all over the civil and military officials, almost overwhelming the queen's line.What's even more bizarre is that the suspicious and jealous Emperor Qian Ning was also coaxed into a daze by him, allowing him to hold the power, and even trusting and favoring him more and more.

And this is also due to the changes in Emperor Qianning's body over the past few years.It is said that the half-immortal on Zhongnan Mountain didn't even open his eyes when he saw Emperor Qianning, let alone salute.But as soon as the divination was given to Emperor Qianning, the half-immortal turned pale with fright, knelt down and shouted long live.

Afterwards, the half-immortal prescribed pills for Emperor Qian Ning. The prescriptions in them were all kinds of strange, and they had to be affixed with charms. They were refined in the furnace for seven to 49 days, and they were called "Jiuzhuan Requiem San".Emperor Qianning took it, and he was refreshed, almost back to his prime, or even worse.In the past few years, Emperor Qianning had everything going well, the world was at peace, and he was rich in good ministers, so he was in a good mood and his temperament changed drastically.

Shu Changyu held the secret letter from Zhang Zhangfei in the north, looked at the words and sentences in it, subconsciously selected all the news related to Jing Mu from it, and secretly spelled out his three years.

The more he looked at him like this, the more he felt that he didn't know this person.Jing Mu seemed to have changed himself, from that innocent, clingy and lively boy to a page in the legend of history books.

As for his sparse and long metaphors, all connections have been cut off.All the connections between the two of them seemed to be cut off abruptly, only to talk about themselves, and to pay close attention to each other's life pretending to be inadvertent.

Shu Changyu sometimes thinks to himself that maybe he is blocking Jing Mu's way.In his previous life, he had been a puppet for more than ten years, but in this life he did nothing when he was there.But as soon as he left, he immediately climbed to the sky like a tiger with wings added.

And the fact that I chose to go south in order to save him, now it seems extremely ridiculous.It was as if he had paid a high price for an insignificant thing.

Shu Changyu himself didn't want to admit it, but in the past three years, he seemed to be proud of himself, but in fact he had a more tormented life than anyone else, and he tossed and turned.He didn't want to admit that Jing Mu really broke with him just like that, and the person who wanted to be with him all day long disappeared like this, without a word from anyone.

He has been persuading himself that he has not lost Jing Mu.But in the past three years, he has not found a suitable excuse.

He was already alone.

Every time he thinks about this, Shu Changyu feels that his heart aches uncontrollably.

"... respectful minister, respectful minister?"

Over there, Fang Yuqian saw him standing there in a daze for a long time without speaking, so he opened his mouth to remind him.

Only then did Shu Changyu come to his senses, forced a smile, nodded, and said: "There are still some matters that have not been settled properly, and it will take more than a month. When everything is settled, it will probably be summer. If the Yellow River is no longer If there is a disaster, I will also return to the capital."

Fang Yuqian smiled and nodded when he heard the words: "At that time, I will be waiting for Jingchen in the capital."

Shu Changyu nodded.

Fang Yuqian frowned again and said: "I heard from my classmates that this time the waterway can only go halfway. There was a drought in Shandong last year, and this year's spring has not rained. I heard that the land is cracked. In such a situation, I am afraid the river is also dry. , the boat won’t work.”

Shu Changyu smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry about that. The canal was built low in the north and high in the south, drawing water from the south of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. Although the canal passes through the territory of Shandong, it does not pass through places where drought occurs. There may be more victims there, but it is absolutely impossible for the river to dry up."

Fang Yuqian nodded, and put away his smile.Listening to Shu Changyu's words, he frowned more and more, and then sighed: "The people in Shandong are also pitiful. Originally, the tax burden was heavy, and there was a drought for one year, and the drought continued for the second year. I heard that the disaster relief funds They have all been embezzled by local officials, but the tax burden has not been adjusted at all... How can you survive?"

The drought in the previous life was not so serious.At that time, Shu Changyu was already in power, and he poured all the power of the country to help the victims, and exempted Shandong from the tax burden for three years, so that the disaster was subsided.But in this life, Emperor Qian Ning, the only one with this ability, did not have the plan of Shu Changyu in his previous life.

Shu Zhang Yu thought about this, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "So you want to be an official. The people have no choice but to rely on the sky for their food. If you are a good official, you can protect them from drought and flood."

Fang Yuqian nodded emphatically, and continued: "Yes! Honorable minister, I have always admired you, and dreamed of being an official like you. You don't know, but now the common people say..." He lowered his voice when he said this. sound.

"Severe drought in Shandong and floods in the south are the reasons why the emperor did not accumulate virtue and appointed magicians to prolong his life. Originally, the past few years were when our great fortune was about to run out and the world was in chaos. But fortunately, there was a respectful minister. You, are the stars who descended from the mortal world, and came to bless Daqi Heshan."

Shu Zhang Yu Wenyan frowned: "Who said that bastard?"

As a courtier, he can make up for the merits of the emperor, and even go down to save the world, which is simply absurd.An inexperienced official would inevitably be overwhelmed when he heard this, but Shu Changyu knew that if he did this, he could lift people up to the clouds and smash them to pieces.

Fang Yuqian didn't take it seriously at all, and said with a smile: "However, folk rumors praise you for your meritorious service in harnessing the river."

At this moment, the boatman on the boat began to shout.Fang Yuqian hastily cupped his hands to say goodbye, turned around and hurried on board the boat.

The boatman untied the boat, supported the pole, and pushed the boat away from the river bank.

Fang Yuqian stood unsteadily on the boat and waved to Shu Changyu.Behind him, the mountains are verdant, layer upon layer, the water surface is shimmering, and the smoke is lingering, just like a landscape with splashed ink.

The direction Shu Changyu was facing happened to be north.Indistinctly, the water was bright and the mountains were beautiful. Through the layers of mountains and rivers, he saw Zhaojing in the north.

His eyes were a little sour all of a sudden.

He fixed his eyes, turned around, and walked back against the crowd who saw him off.

"Go and check." He instructed Kong Qing. "Where did the rumor that I went down to save the world come from?"
