"Nope!" Lu Bingdao: "But there is a new thing in Datong. ”

"Oh?" Emperor Jiajing said with interest: "What's new?" Luo Xin should take the township test there, right? ”

Lu Bing smiled and said, "The emperor is sage! This matter is related to Luo Xin. ”

"Oh?" Emperor Jiajing smiled: "This kid has always been bold, I don't know what happened again?" ”

"It's not a bad thing, Luo Xin held a literary meeting in the largest restaurant in Datong on the second day out of the examination room, and at the literary meeting, everyone posted their articles on the wall, commented on each other, and the noise was not small."

"Oh?" Emperor Jiajing raised his eyebrows, and said with a look of interest on his face: "The other state capital candidates didn't hold such a party?" ”

"There are similar, but the scale is very small, and they are all cultural meetings held by some small circles, and the scale of the cultural meetings held by Luo Xin is completely incomparable. Your Majesty, now Luo Xin's reputation is not small, and the nine candidates in their Jinyang Mansion are called the Nine Masters of Jinyang, and they are very popular with the candidates in the north. That's why we were able to hold a cultural conference of such a scale.

Liu Shouyou is responsible for these things, he has collected a lot of articles from candidates in various state capitals, and this time he has only brought the first batch, all of which are articles from candidates from the north, and the south is far away from the capital and has not yet been sent. ”

Emperor Jiajing's gaze fell on the thick stack of paper in Lu Bing's hand and said, "Show me the article of Jinyang Jiujie first, I want to see what they have to call Jiujie." ”

"Yes!"

Lu Bing stepped forward, put the thick stack of paper on the bookcase, and then picked out the articles of Jinyang Jiujie from it and put them in front of Emperor Jiajing. Emperor Jiajing looked at it, and the article on top was Luo Xin's article, but he didn't read it immediately, but put Luo Xin's article aside and began to read other articles. As he read them one by one, a hint of joy appeared on his face, and when he finished reading the eight articles, he said with a faint smile on his face:

"The article of these eight people is well written, although there is still a distance from 'Jie', but it is also a rare good article. If Luo Xin's article is also at this level, I am a little disappointed. ”

As he spoke, he picked up Luo Xin's article and lowered his gaze to look at it. The smile on his face gradually expanded, and finally he couldn't help but cheer.

"Good! This is worthy of the word 'Jie'. I'm looking forward to meeting this kid. It's about to be released, right? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, there are still two days until the day of the release of the list."

Datong.

After Luo Xin and the others attended that meeting, they were all bored at home. The taste of waiting is really uncomfortable, except for Luo Xin, the hearts of those eight people are like a fire burning, and even the sense of taste seems to have been lost, there is no taste for eating, and it is even more difficult to sleep. When I finally fell asleep, I dreamed, and sometimes I dreamed that I was in high school, and I woke up laughing in my sleep. Sometimes I dream that I have fallen off the list, and I wake up crying again in my sleep. The whole person is not good, and his face has become gray. Counting my fingers all day long, staying up day by day.

This atmosphere of anxiety floated throughout Jinyang Mansion. There are no more literary clubs, and there are fewer scholars on the road, and everyone is stuck at home. Waiting in the inn, or in the temple or temple, in a temporarily rented room. In fact, it is very uncomfortable to stay at home, and these people also want to go out for a walk, but when they go out and meet the same year, they will inevitably ask each other how they are doing?

How do you ask this question? How to answer?

Isn't that adding fuel to the fire?

Luo Xin was almost all at home, but he went out once, went to the Zhuangyuan Bookstore to plan with Song Tai once, and then returned to the station. His face was calm because he knew he couldn't make it to the list, and his battle had just begun.

But seeing the anxious appearance of Zhou Yu and others, Luo Xin also had a headache, if it goes on like this, it is not good to say that before the list is released, a few people will fall ill. This is definitely not groundless, many candidates have fallen ill in Datong these days.

They must divert their minds!

Luo Xin asked people to prepare some pieces of hard paper, and then made three decks of poker, gathered everyone together, and then taught them the rules of fighting the landlord, just nine people were divided into three teams, and began to play the landlord, this game was played in the dark, and temporarily forgot to put the list.

Capital.

Yan Mansion.

Yan Song's face showed an anxious look, and he was holding a piece of paper in his hand, which was written on Luo Xin's scientific expedition. put down the paper and walked around the study anxiously, and Yan Shifan on the side also showed anxiety on his face.

"Father, Luo Xin's article has been read by His Majesty, what should I do?"

"It's too late, now there is only one day, even if you want to notify Zhao Wenhua in Datong, it's too late. It seems that Luo Xin had long expected that they would target him, and he was already prepared. ”

Yan Shifan's eyes showed a hint of ruthlessness and said, "It seems that there is only sacrifice for Zhao Wenhua." ”

Yan Song paused, nodded lightly, and said, "You immediately send someone to find Zhao Wenhua and ask him to memorize this time." Tell him that the old man will not forget him, and in three or two years, he will still return to the court as an official. ”

"Yes, I'll send someone!"

Xufu study.

Opposite Xu Jie, sat the imperial historian Zou Yinglong, Zou Yinglong looked at Xu Jie, but Xu Jie's eyes drooped slightly, and his face was covered with clouds and mountains, and he could not see what he was thinking at this time.

What was he thinking?

Xu Jie's heart was very conflicted at this time, and he was very stressed. His pressure came from Xinxue, and the letters from Xinxue came to him from all directions like snowflakes, with only one purpose, that is, to let Xu Jie grasp this opportunity, and faintly revealed that if Xu Jie gave up the opportunity this time, Xinxue would give up on him and re-select the leader of Xinxue.

This pressure is too great for Xu Jie, and in addition to the pressure, there is also a temptation, once Yan Song is overthrown, he will become the head of the cabinet, this temptation is really not much resistance for Xu Jie, what has he fought all his life for?

Isn't that what it is?

But......

Luo Xin......

Through this incident, he had a deep fear of Luo Xin, this chess hand did not look like a fourteen-year-old boy at all, it was completely a person with a deep city government who could do this. If Yan Song, the wolf, can be beaten to death this time, will Luo Xin, the tiger, rush into the court again?

Xu Jie took a deep breath, and he already had a decision in his heart. In fact, he had already made a decision in his heart, but he was unwilling to give Luo Xin a chance. He couldn't resist the temptation of the cabinet capital, nor could he withstand the pressure from Xinxue, he could only act as a pawn in this game of chess under Luo Xin.
