Chapter 13 The Story of the Eye and a Breakfast
The autumn test is approaching, Min Qiuye is working harder and harder. Even we rarely attend chats at home on weekdays. Here, Zhao Hezhi and I rested here, so we went to his room to find him. He looked yellow, and he seemed to be overusing his brain. I gave him six walnuts, the brain-enhancing products I bought from the street, so that he could pay attention to his health.
Zhao Hezhi said, Lao Min, if you continue like this, you may die before the autumn test. Come on, here are some new issues of gossip weekly and Jianghu magazines, you can treat it as a pastime for nothing.
Lao Min said that after studying hard for eighteen years, success or failure is in the present day, and you have to be nervous. Then you have to pay attention to your health. I was talking while reading Zhao Hezhi’s books and magazines. Why did you enter Xiaosheng? Why did you write something like a court monthly magazine?
I pointed to a post "On the Necessity of Reform of the Prince's Mansion System" to Zhao Hezhi. This is also considered a gossip in the world? Zhao Hezhi smiled bitterly and said, this is an article by Song Sixian, the outsider of the Ministry of Rites. Our Xiaosheng Information is also a core journal after all. He wanted to evaluate his professional title, so he found me and I published it.
I said that the Prince's Mansion's soldiers are also a matter of the sect's mansion, and it's not the Ministry of Rites' turn to make trouble.
Zhao Hezhi said you don’t know anything. Song Sixian published this article on reducing the prince’s military power, which was very popular in the court recently. The empress dowager’s faction has long expressed dissatisfaction with the excessive number of soldiers in the prince’s palaces in various places. This article was precisely because it was clear that this article was to meet his preferences. It is said that the candidate for the Minister of Rites will be decided next time.
I was not very interested in court affairs, so I suggested that the three of them go out for a walk. Lao Min said he wanted to read the book, and I said, don’t forget, today is September 28th, and it is your birthday of Confucius. According to the court system, the emperor will visit the Confucius Temple today, and scholars from all over the country can visit it in the afternoon. It is also good to get some imperial aura. After that, Lao Min’s eyes lit up.
It was noon when we arrived at the Imperial College. After the emperor finished worshiping Confucius, we had already returned to the palace. We walked outside the Imperial College and came to a bookstore. There were three big characters written on the plaque. New Oriental. Min Qiuye was so crazy about books that we followed us in.
There are a wide range of books in the store, such as "Three Hundred Sets of Eight-Legend Essays Template", "One Thousand Examples of Famous Quotes in Classics and History", "Eight-Legend Quick Book", etc. Min Qiuye bought a bunch. Before checking out, the boss asked Min if he was a filial piety who took the exam, and Min Qiuye nodded. The boss said quietly, I have a way here to make you go to high school in the autumn exam, but you have to spend some money.
Min Qiuye asked, what is the way? Our shopkeeper knew a talented person from the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites in the court. As long as you have proper money and can buy a question, your test paper will be taken care of when you mark the paper in the future. Although there is no hope for one or two, the second and third grades are still similar.
What is the price? I also tell you this clearly. There are eight questions in total, three hundred taels and two one thousand taels. You see, this is the price list. After that, he took out a piece of paper from the drawer, which said the price of the questions. I took a look and found that the prices from the first to the eighth question are different. If you buy all eight, you will definitely not be able to get it if you don’t have ten thousand taels.
Min Qiuye was shocked by this price list and couldn't speak. Although he was from a wealthy family, he could still take out one or two hundred taels of silver, but ten thousand taels of silver, cough cough...
Min Qiuye shook her head and the shop owner said that you were wearing silk and silver, but I didn't expect that you were also a poor man. The three of us came out in a hurry. Hearing the sound of gongs on the street, avoiding...
I looked in the sound, who is this? What a big air. Zhao Hezhi said not to make a noise, so he knelt down quickly. This is Prince Qi. The three of us knelt on the side of the road, and there were more than 200 people in a team of people. I walked over in a row. I took a secret look, huh, the maid in the team looks so familiar, isn’t that Li Xinyu?
After the team, Min Qiuye made a big show, and Zhao Hezhi said that it was rare and strange. In the morning, the emperor worshiped Confucius, and the scale was 2,000 people.
The next day, I went to the escort agency and saw martial law in the whole city, with three steps and five steps. After asking by passers-by, I realized that the King of Qi was assassinated at the mansion in the capital yesterday. Jingzhao Mansion and Liushemen were dispatched to capture the assassin.
So that's it. At this time, someone patted his shoulder. I swung my fist, but it was blocked. It was Li Xinyu. I said that the whole city is looking for you now, and you are still leisurely walking on the street.
Li Xinyu said why are you looking for me? I am so famous? I said I saw you in the ceremonial war between King Qi yesterday, and today I heard that King Qi was assassinated. Isn’t you doing it or someone else?
Did you see it with your own eyes? Qin Sanguan, everything is about to tell evidence. You are so slandering, be careful that I will sue you for slander. I think so, although she is from the Heaven and Earth Society, it is not right, but let me cheat her...
What will your heaven and earth assassinate the King of Qi? Li Xinyu was not fooled. Everyone said that it was not ours, so you apologize to me.
Ahh, sorry, sorry, I apologize. I'll treat you to breakfast.
The two of them came to a newly opened store called Starbucks. As soon as I entered, I shouted, "Man, two bowls of tofu brain and two fried dough sticks."
Sorry, the shop does not have tofu and braised fried dough sticks.
Oh, let’s have two bowls of Hu spicy soup, add more chili, five vegetable buns, and five meat buns.
Sorry, there are no Hula soup buns in the shop.
Ah, let’s have two bowls of soy milk and three boiled in fire.
There is no soy milk in the small shop.
Li Xinyu was furious and said, "It's nothing you want, what kind of store you open, it's closed."
After having breakfast with Li Xinyu, I returned to the escort agency. Recently, the escort agency has had a lot of things. After receiving the Shandong Road business of the Longmen escort agency, it has undergone internal reorganization.
Our group is a hero in regaining Shandong business. In addition, I am from the Taishan Sect, so naturally our group was organized on Shandong Road.
These days, Teacher Yang took Heifengzhai to handle some procedures on Shandong Road, such as changing the business scope and business area. On the contrary, I, the Persian Ming Cult and Liu Qingfeng, have basically nothing to do.
When Liu Qingfeng saw me coming, he pretended to be mysterious. Are you interested in finding a wife? I said it's good, but I just don't have money. Liu Qingfeng said there is no need for too much money. I have a friend named Xiaolong Girl who opened a marriage agency...
What? Don’t carry Xiaolongbao to me, it’s so angry. So I told you about the morning at Starbucks.
Why don’t you look for the Persian Ming Cult? He has a lot of money and looks good. Liu Qingfeng pointed at a bruise on his face. How do you know I didn’t go to him? I think he is too violent. If you find a girl for him, you might have a better temper. Who knew that I just spoke and that’s it.
I'm afraid it's more than that.
