Chapter 134: Crape myrtle

The next day, when Yin Zhaoxian and Shi Yusheng got up to wash up, they were told by old man Chen that Ji Yuan had already left by boat, saying that they would be waiting for them at Zhuangyuandu.

​​

Compared to rowing them to Zhuangyuandu and then to the other side, it would definitely make more sense to meet at Zhuangyuandu and then upload the ferry to the other side.

​​

After having breakfast at Chen's house, Chen Jinghong, the son of old man Chen, took two scholars to Zhuangyuandu. He originally wanted to drive an ox cart, but the speed was not as fast as walking.

​​

Chen Jinghong was originally a villager, and the two scholars had gone through the long-distance training for the exam, so the three of them were not slow, and they walked over a dozen miles in more than an hour.

​​

The closer you get to Zhuangyuandu, the more people flow. It seems that people from all directions are slowly converging here. It is not that they are all tribute teams, but more are the Jiang Temple here to worship the goddess Jiang. .

​​

Before reaching Zhuangyuandu, the Chen family man stopped, pointed to two places in front of him and said to the two scholars:

​​

"The building with white walls and black tiles over there is the Tongtian Jiangjiang Temple. Although it is not the largest temple on the entire river, it is one of the best in terms of incense, especially many scholars who write poems and poems there. It's Zhuangyuandu, Mr. Ji must be at the North Small Wharf, you can just look for it!"

​​

After Chen Jinghong said this, he was about to leave. He had nothing to do there, so there was no need to follow him to the end.

​​

"Thank you Brother Chen for sending me off! Yes, thank you Brother Chen, I will definitely repay you when Shi Yusheng becomes an official in the future!"

​​

"Hey, that's fine, I wish you two high schools, I'll go first, take care!"

​​

Chen Jinghong smiled, seeing the two of them hand in hand and bowing back to the two before turning around and leaving. He had seen many scholars like this, and they all dreamed that they would become the next champion after passing Zhuang Yuandu.

​​

Yin Zhaoxian and Shi Yusheng waited for Chen Jinghong to leave, and then each tightened their bookcases and walked towards Zhuangyuandu in the slight cold wind. It wasn't that they didn't want to visit Jiang Temple, but they didn't want Ji Yuan to wait for a long time.

​​

Yin Zhaoxian and Shi Yusheng had both seen the Chunhui Mansion Pier. In their eyes, the Zhuangyuan Ferry was naturally far inferior to the Chunhui Mansion Pier, but then they looked at the pier that was vaguely visible on the other side. There was the water transportation hub of Gyeonggi Prefecture. It is more magnificent than the outer port of Chunhui House.

​​

It's just different from the cruise ship in Chunhui Mansion. It is a real freight hub, and there are few flower boats. In addition, it is a severe winter, and there are not many freight ships, and only one docks occasionally...

​​

The Wu Peng boat is parked next to a small pier in the north. Although the boat on the side is smaller than the rest of the pier, it is a big boat compared to the Wu Peng boat.

​​

Ji Yuan sat on the bow of the boat and watched "Yun Lun" by herself, listening to the noise of the ferry terminal in this port.

​​

It seems that because the ferry's name is Zhuangyuandu, it also brings a sense of culture. There are people who sell the four treasures of the study, as well as calligraphy and paintings. After reading the book, he looked up, and he found that among the many gas mixtures, there were A faint scent of crape myrtle stands out among the many mixed phases.

​​

'Could it be that there is a favored prince in this champion? ’

​​

Although this crape myrtle gas is very shallow, it looks pure and very pure and there is not too much variegation mixed in, indicating that its human nature has not been invaded by the stale and extravagant atmosphere of the court at least. At this time, the crape myrtle gas can be regarded as a "bright" Character.

​​

Ji Yuan frowned and thought about it, then looked at the direction of the pier.

​​

An interesting thing is coming, Yin Zhaoxian's arrogant righteousness is also conspicuous, and the two qi seem to be pulling together while they are rising.

​​

'It seems that what is said in "The Biography of the Outsiders" is not bad, those who are 'bright' with Ziwei, invite worthy officials! ’

​​

Ji Yuan jumped onto the pier from the bow of the boat, ready to go see if there will be an interesting encounter...

​​

Next to the booth of the Four Treasures of a study in Zhuang Yuandu, a man in his thirties who can be regarded as a godly and handsome man was accompanied by a number of entourage, and was walking and observing the surroundings.

​​

When one of the servants saw the man rubbing his hands and exhaling, he immediately raised his voice in concern.

​​

"Third Young Master, if you feel cold, we'll go to the boat. There's a heater and velvet fur inside..."

​​

"Hey! You're here again, spoiler!"

​​

The man waved his hand to stop the servants from talking, and wandered forward again. Today, he came to the Jiang Temple to see if there were any new and exquisite inscriptions, but he didn't find anything, so he took a look at this champion.

​​

Those scholars who came to Beijing to take the exams, the most gathered in this season, are people who passed the entrance exams from various states on the basis of their talents. It is very interesting to see these so-called talents from various states face the pilgrimage of Zhuangyuandu. If you can find one or two interesting people more interesting.

​​

At this moment, the man saw Yin Zhaoxian and Shi Yusheng who just walked into the pier with their book boxes on their backs. Seeing how their hands and faces were flushed from the cold, it seemed that they came completely by themselves?

​​

The nearest market to Zhuangyuandu is thirty miles away, and the nearest village is twenty miles away. The scholars who walked so far in the early morning in the cold wind were at least the first two today.

​​

The man pointed at the two scholars and said to others, "Do you think these two came here on foot or by carriage?"

​​

The servant next to him fixed his eyes on the scholar who was not far away, and answered after a while:

​​

"Reporting to the third son, although the two of them are still steady on their feet, they tread softly. They must have walked a long way, and their fatigue is already evident."

​​

The man just said "oh" and found that the two of them were walking towards this side. He also took a look at the calligraphy, paintings and other items listed at the stall on the side, but his footsteps did not stop.

​​

That is, when Yin Zhaoxian was about to pass by the man, Yin Zhaoxian suddenly stopped and looked at him, and then he took a few steps forward like a ghost, reaching a dangerous area, which caused several servants around the man to narrow their eyes.

​​

Several fierce people focused their attention here, and Shi Yusheng felt flustered for a while, and hurried to pull Yin Zhaoxian.

​​

"Sir, is there something on my face?"

​​

The man asked Yin Zhaoxian, and Shi Yusheng pulled him, which made him seem like he was waking up from a dream and apologized repeatedly.

​​

"Everyone, please forgive me. Just now, Yin lost his mind. Seeing that this young man feels very good-natured, but he must have never seen him before, he just finds it very strange..."

​​

Yin Zhaoxian lowered his voice, and found that the other party had two servants standing behind him and Shi Yusheng. Two other people suddenly grabbed their arms, and the person behind them even opened the bookcase and rummaged through it.

​​

"What are you doing? Stop it! Stop it!"

​​

Shi Yusheng shouted in panic, Yin Zhaoxian calmed down, but his face was not good-looking. He looked at people a few times and still caused trouble. His eyes kept wandering around the pier. He knew that Mr. Ji must be nearby, so he didn't panic at all. .

​​

The surrounding vendors and others obviously have an attitude of doing more than one less thing, guessing that the two scholars must have provoked some powerful people. This kind of thing is not uncommon in Zhuangyuandu.

​​

After searching the two bookcases, they searched the body again, but no murder weapon was found. A servant handed the two-point official letter to the third son, who opened it, looked at it, and asked the two of them.

​​

"Who is Yin Zhaoxian?"

​​

"I'm!"

​​

After Yin Zhaoxian responded, the three young masters looked at him up and down with great interest.

​​

"It's actually Jizhou Jieyuan? Interesting... Let them go!"

​​

Hearing this, the servant released the hands that locked the two of them. The first thing the two scholars did was to rub their arms quickly, and the second thing was to put down the bookcase to pick up the books that had just been flipped to the ground.

​​

The Third Young Master glanced at some of the books on the ground with strange titles, and crouched down together out of curiosity.

​​

"What kind of famous book is this? I've never seen it!"

​​

When Yin Zhao saw what he was pointing at, he answered:

​​

""On the Birds" and "The Meaning of Knowledge" are my own works, not some famous books."

​​

The three young masters picked up a copy directly from the ground. The cover used beautiful calligraphy to write "On the Flock of Birds - Tong Sheng's Answer", and then look at the other three books, "The Theory of the Flock of Birds - Night Tour", "The Flock of Birds" On - Weak Crown Books" and "On the Birds - Fengming Wutong", it seems that it is still a series.

​​

Just flipping through a few pages of the book in hand, the first impression is that the handwriting is clear and the calligraphy is exquisite, and then looking at the content is very novel and interesting~www.NovelMTL.com~Yin Jieyuan from Jizhou, why not sell these books to me? "

​​

Third Young Master said to Yin Zhaoxian very seriously, and the latter and Shi Yusheng were stunned for a while.

​​

"Uh... how much copper are you going to pay?"

​​

Yin Zhaoxian can write a few more copies of this book at any time by himself. Now the two of them are just in trouble, so it would be good if they could sell it.

​​

The third son hooked his hand at the servant, who immediately took out two silver taels from the purse in his arms. Judging by the size, there should be at least four or five taels per ingot.

​​

"Are these enough?"

​​

"These are a little too much..."

​​

"Enough is enough, enough!"

​​

Before Yin Zhaoxian finished speaking, Shi Yusheng rushed to answer. The man smiled, took the silver from the servant and put it on Yin Zhaoxian's bookcase, and then stretched out his hand to him. ” and a volume of “Zhizhiyi” to the other party.

​​

When those people left on the wrong side, Yin Zhaoxian and Shi Yusheng still had a feeling of unreality. These books actually sold for 10 taels of silver, and the winter in the capital was very good.

​​

Ji Yuan was like other people watching the fun from a distance standing in the crowd of people in the distance, but when others saw the conflict, they dispersed, but he kept looking at the direction that the prince was leaving.

​​

At the moment when "Three Young Masters" took over Master Yin's handwritten book, the crape myrtle above his head was slightly churning. Although the change was not obvious, it was particularly stamina.
