Chapter 130: The seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the mysterious man’s invitation(1/2)

 Chapter 130 The seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the mysterious man’s invitation

Li Miao and the other three also went to play Go, no, it should be said to be backgammon.

Perhaps they felt that leaving the three newcomers behind was not a good choice, so Huang Huangzhong and the others called on Li Miao and the others to take turns playing chess while the others watched from the sidelines.

Li Miao didn't know much about Go, but he didn't want to make any exceptions on the first day of work, so he once again brought up Gobang.

Although the game of backgammon is indeed a bit "insulting and polite" to contemporary people, it is not as simple as it seems on the surface, and it is not as simple as playing it.

Time is also a good choice.

On the other side, Emperor Yongxing had just left the morning court. He thought that today was the day when new scholars would enter the Hanlin Academy, and that there would be nothing important to deal with later, so he came up with the idea of ​​going to the Hanlin Academy to take a look.

Hmm... Thinking about it, it has indeed been a long time since I went to the Hanlin Academy.

So, he took the eunuch Xu Lian to the Hanlin Academy with great interest.

When the officials of the Hanlin Academy saw Emperor Yongxing suddenly appearing in the Hanlin Academy, they were immediately shocked. They hurriedly stepped forward and saluted in panic, wondering why the emperor had suddenly arrived.

Emperor Yongxing waved his hand to these officials, indicating that they should ignore him and go about their own affairs, while he took the eunuch Xu Lian on a patrol.

As the inspection continued, Emperor Yongxing's face became less good-looking, because he found that most of the officials in the Hanlin Academy were drinking tea and living a leisurely life, and only a small number of people were working.

With.

Unknowingly, Emperor Yongxing had arrived at the office room where Li Miao and the others were working. There was no door in such a large office room, so the sounds inside could easily be heard.

"Oh, Mr. Yu, you can't do it like this. If you do it like this, you will fall into Mr. Li's trap. You want to do it here."

"Master Liang, the gentleman watched the chess without saying a word."

"Hehe... Mr. Li, I didn't say that I was a gentleman."

"It's the best, it's the best."

Li Miao probably also realized that his winning streak might have aroused "common anger", so he secretly let go of the situation and let the opponent Yu Mengqi win.

Then, he pretended to be vicious and said: "Damn! If it hadn't been for Mr. Liang's reminder just now, I would have won!"

"Master Li, start driving, start driving, it's someone's turn."

"Can you let me play the next game first?"

"Of course not, it's someone's turn now, you have to at least wait until..."

Liang Chao didn't even think about it, so he subconsciously refused. Then he suddenly reacted, stopped talking, and turned around stiffly, as if he was being strangled by the neck. He was suddenly frightened, sweating profusely, and hurriedly talked to

Salute respectfully like everyone else.

"Wei...wei, Wei minister pays homage to His Majesty."

"Humph!"

Emperor Yongxing snorted heavily and said: "I want to play chess now. Who is interested in playing a game with me?"

Everyone can hear the deep anger of Emperor Yongxing. Several people are chilling. Who has the courage to reply? They just lower their heads.

"Liang Aiqing, are you interested in playing a game with me?"

Hearing Emperor Yongxing calling his name, Liang Chao's heart trembled, and he hurried forward and said: "Your Majesty, Wei...Wei, Wei Chen is guilty!"

"Humph!"

Emperor Yongxing snorted again, his eyes first glanced at the three old people Huang Huangzhong, and then fell on the three newcomers Li Miao, and said: "You three have finished reading the books on the table in the past few days. After a while,

I will come randomly to check.”

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Li Miao and the other two people quickly saluted, and everyone secretly smiled bitterly.

There are not many books on this table, and they are not too thin. It will be difficult to read them in a few days.

Sigh... It's unlucky to say the least. On the first day I joined an old colleague, I was brazenly paddling with my old colleague, and was caught red-handed by my top boss.

After Emperor Yongxing left, several people still didn't dare to speak. They all returned to their seats silently. Whether they had something to do or nothing to do, they all had to look like they were doing something seriously.
p>

This situation lasted until the afternoon shift, but there was no gain at all. After this incident, the relationship between the few people was obviously at least a little closer, and Li Miao and the other three quickly integrated in.

During this period, Liang Chao even suggested that he might as well go to Bishui Pavilion later, which was unanimously opposed by everyone.

It’s not because Bishui Pavilion is expensive. Bishui Pavilion is expensive, but they can still get the money. It doesn’t hurt to go there once or twice. The main reason is that the time at noon is not enough.

Have fun, you might as well set the time in the evening.

This time, Li Miao was the only one who opposed it.

According to Li Miao's own words, there were some things at home on the nights of the seventh and eighth day of the lunar month, and he really didn't have the time. As an apology, he will pay for it personally when he goes to Bishui Pavilion after two days.

After saying this, the few people naturally had no dissatisfaction and nodded in succession.

……

When Li Miao returned to Zhe Mansion, he found that Zhe Xinyi had not gone to the camp today, and Zhe Junyan, Zhe Liu and others had not had lunch yet. When he came back, the dishes were almost ready.

Obviously, this was specially waiting for him to come back to eat together.

In response to this, Li Miao couldn't help but feel warm in her heart and said: "Uncle, aunt, there is no need to wait for me."

Mr. Zheliu said with a smile: "Everything needs to be eaten, at least in this moment."

Then, he asked: "Sanshui, how do you feel about being on duty for the first time today?"

Facing the looks of several people, Li Miao briefly talked about what he had done in the Hanlin Academy in the morning. Of course, he would not tell anyone about Emperor Yongxing's sudden visit to the Hanlin Academy.

After lunch, Zhe Xinyi handed Li Miao an invitation.

"This is?"

Li Miao looked at her in confusion.

Zhe Xinyi explained: "It's like this. This morning, a servant who claimed to be Bishui Pavilion sent you this invitation, inviting you to go to Bishui Pavilion tomorrow to get together."

"Bishui Pavilion?"

Li Miao was startled and asked in confusion: "Who invited me?"

Zhe Xinyi said: "How could I know such a thing?"

Hearing this, Li Miao couldn't help but be a little surprised and said: "Didn't you open the invitation and read it?"

Hearing this, Zhe Xinyi glanced at him and said unhappily: "Am I the kind of person who opens other people's things at will without the owner's permission?"

Li Miao: "..."

This is true for other people, but not necessarily for him.

Opening the invitation, Li Miao probably understood why Zhe Xinyi said she didn't know, because the signature area on the invitation was blank and no name was written at all.

However, the invitation said something like this, inviting Li Miao to go to the Bishui Pavilion tomorrow around the time of Youshi to gather together.

Li Miao was full of doubts about this.

Who is this?

You can't tell who it is from the handwriting.

It’s so mysterious.

After thinking about it, I threw the invitation aside casually.

I won’t even reveal my name, anyone who wants to go can go!

Zhe Xinyi picked up the invitation he had discarded and handed it back to Li Miao's hands.

Li Miao looked at her in confusion and said, "Xinyi, what do you mean? I don't intend to invite a guy like this who deliberately makes himself so mysterious."

Zhe Xinyi glared at him and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't invite me, but can you please stop throwing things away? This place was just cleaned."

Li Miao: "..."

……

Because Emperor Yongxing suddenly came to inspect in the morning, the entire Hanlin Academy was busy in the afternoon, and every official stayed at his desk and worked seriously.

It doesn’t matter if you are really busy or pretending to be busy, it just looks busy anyway.

Li Miao's office is also in the same situation. The three old employees of Huang Huangzhong didn't know what they were writing. They wrote hard all afternoon without stopping the brush in their hands.

However, the three newcomers, Li Miao, are all reading the books on the table carefully. They don't think that His Majesty is just giving a verbal warning now. If he really fails to meet His Majesty's expectations, then it will be a disaster.

Too bad.

Before I knew it, the afternoon passed.

After saying goodbye to a few people, Li Miao left the Hanlin Academy and returned to Zhefu.

There is a saying that Nuwa created chickens on the first day of the first lunar month, dogs on the second day of the lunar month, and did not create humans until the seventh day of the lunar month. Therefore, the seventh day of the lunar month is considered a person's birthday in some places and is called Human Day.<
