Chapter 148: The last scene, an arrow in a dream

On February 15th, there will be rain in Chang'an. The chapter updates are as fast as the morning, and the wind is fine, making it even cooler. It is even colder than when it snowed a few days ago. It is chilly spring.

He woke up in a hurry, and Chen Sanlang sat up and saw that the sky was dark.

The space of Gongyuan Cabinet is narrow. In the brazier in the corner, half a pot of ashes and some charcoal fires have not been extinguished, showing red light, fermenting warmth.

Tightening his clothes on his body, Chen Sanlang stood up, bowed to the basin, and scooped a handful of water on his face. He was cold and refreshed, and his spirit was refreshed, and the remaining sleepiness was swept away.

Today is the day when the last exam of the imperial examination begins. After two consecutive exams, my physical strength and mental loss are great. My whole body is like a bowstring that is pulled to the maximum arc. The next moment, either the sharp arrow is stimulated and the success is achieved; or it is broken and all previous efforts are wasted.

In this kind of exam, it is never just about one's own talent. No wonder there are many talented people who have failed in the exam hall in the past dynasties, and countless talented people have failed.

Chen Sanlang sat back in the meal. Not long after, the deacon in the examination room brought new charcoal, new pens and ink, and today's breakfast.

I have lived here for several days, eating, drinking, defecation and urination are all several feet apart, and the air is not very circulating, and the room emits a foul smell.

Chen Sanlang frowned and ate breakfast in a big mouthful. As the saying goes, "Only if you endure hardships, you will be the best." What is this foul smell?

After a meal, I took a break for two quarters of an hour and the test questions were announced. I saw that a question in the current affairs policy said: "There is a foundation and an end of things, and the end of things. If you know the order of the future, you will be close to the way. Therefore, it is said: What is the way?"

This question is a bit mysterious. It is completely different from the past. The "Tao" asked in the question is really a huge concept and is extremely empty.

Chen Sanlang thought quietly, and suddenly felt a lot of thoughts. He couldn't figure out the rules. He pursed his lips tightly and ground the ink first. When the ink was ready, his thoughts were still a little confused. He lifted the pen several times, but he couldn't write.

The Tao can be told, it is extraordinary. Now the emperor asks the Tao, what is Tao?

I often hear that the emperor admires immortality. He likes to live in peace and takes pills, and even ignores political affairs, which leads to the situation in the world and plants the root of disaster.

Then, how is it the kingly way to be in his position and ignore the world?

Thinking of this, a flash of light in my mind was like setting a topic. I immediately wrote and wrote the pen:

"... Water and wood are in harmony, mountains and rivers are shattered, and the world is inaction. There are still desires in bondage. If the big ones are whales and salamanders, and if the small ones are owls and horns are horns and horns are horns and horns are horns and horns are horns. There was an ancient saying: "Leaves and separations are endless, what can Manman do? A hair is not removed. Axe will be used... This is the way, the great virtues of heaven and earth are called "life". The great treasure of the sage is called "position", and the years are prosperous and the evening is about to be dull. It is really generous to the dust..."

He wrote happily, his writing was flowing, without any stagnation.

This article was completed with nearly a thousand words, and it took less than half an hour to complete. What's even more amazing is that it seemed to resonate with this current policy theory. The "Haoran Silk Book" appeared in my mind. The pages of the book were simple, and the lines of words were shiny, just like "every word was gem".

"happy!"

After writing the last word, he threw the pen on the ground and shouted in a low voice, but unfortunately there was no wine on the table, so it could not be completely clear.

This article expresses its thoughts directly, with a straightforward writing, and criticizes current ills. It is definitely not an ordinary hymn and praises. Throughout the article, it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of radicalism and recklessness. To be honest, there is a great risk of being wiped out.

After all, to be honest, it is easy to offend people.

This is different from the provincial examination. The article in the provincial examination only boldly expressed personal opinions, but now this article is more distinct and directly criticized the government affairs.

Of course, Chen Sanlang understood the meaning, but he had no idea of ​​changing it.

In this life, a person can say countless words and thousands of words. How much truth is there, how good is there, how good is there, how much beauty is there? How many of them are forgotten after saying it?

And some words, once they are not said now, will never be said again in the future, and will be formed in the pen.

Because the most terrible loss of a person is his spirit!

...

"ah!"

Xu Jun suddenly woke up and sat up from the bed. Her long hair was as loose as a waterfall, with a lazy beauty. The two lines hung on her chest and covered on the amazing bulge. She had a nightmare, but it was not about her father, but Chen Sanlang.

In my dream, Chen Sanlang passed the top scorer in high school, arranged flowers and rode a horse, and happily toured the capital with other new Jinshi. On both sides of the street, the viewers were blocked, and countless people applauded and cheered.

Xu Jun stood among the crowd and saw Chen Sanlang riding on a horse, so he shouted his name. He seemed to hear something and looked for it. At this moment, he broke through the air with an arrow and flew from the void, accurately shooting Chen Sanlang's heart...

The blood that was soaring out was as bright as a flower.

Xu Jun screamed in shock, so he woke up.

The charcoal fire in the room had long turned into ashes and could not emit warmth. She felt a little cold on her body, so she reached out to take her coat and put it on her ears. When she heard it, it was drizzling and it was raining outside.

Today is February 15th, and the last exam will begin.

Xu Jun already knew that Chen Sanlang had entered the Gong Academy exam.

During these days, she wandered around the capital and searched for her father's whereabouts, and also found out about Chen Sanlang.

Compared to Xu Nianniang, who was not seen at the end of the dragon, Chen Sanlang's whereabouts are undoubtedly much clearer. As long as you go to Yunlai Inn, Tengda Inn and other inns to ask, you will soon learn valuable news. What's more important is that Chen Sanlang made a name for himself at that time with the song "Shuitu Songtou" and became famous. It is natural and easy to find it.

Knowing that Chen Sanlang had entered the Inner City Gongyuan exam, Xu Jun was both happy and worried. He was happy that he grew from a sour scholar who could not take the exam to the current Jieyuan of Yizhou. She was happy for him with such glory. What he was worried about was that in this exam, I wonder if Chen Sanlang could go further...

In order to wait for Chen Sanlang to finish the exam, Xu Jun stayed in an inn outside the entrance to the inner city. But for some reason, he actually had such a nightmare last night.

After thinking about it for a while, she couldn't think of the reason. She got out of bed and put on her clothes and opened the bags placed on the table. Inside were some changes of clothes, some miscellaneous items, and the remaining string of copper coins.

It only costs 38 cents. You can’t add meat if you eat a bowl of noodles in the capital. You can only have clear soup and water.

I sighed and took the money and went downstairs.

"Oh, Miss Xu, you got up, where are you going?"

The inn owner was dialing the abacus at the counter. When he glanced at Xu Jun's figure in the corner of his eyes, he quickly ran out and asked. He smiled and said with kind greetings, but in fact he was wary, as if he was afraid that Xu Jun would run away - Xu Jun had not paid the house in the past three days and had already owed him much.

Xu Jun replied: "Go out for a walk."

The proprietress coughed dryly: "This girl Xu, I know you are tight, but you also understand that I am a small business and pay attention to cash..."

Xu Jun's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth. Suddenly he took out something from his body and put it on the counter: "Boss, I will mortgage this piece of jade to you first. In a few days, when I have money, I will settle it with you clearly. Don't worry, I won't give you a little."

The proprietress saw the jade, the size of a baby's palm, the color was warm and exquisite. The most special thing was that there was a rippling blush in the jade, as if the water waves would flow. She couldn't help but her eyelids hopped. She was a person who knew the goods. She picked up the jade and looked at it carefully. She immediately smiled on her face: "Miss Xu, you are kind, why am I afraid that you will be silly at your expense... You didn't have breakfast, sit down quickly, I'll ask the waiter to put a bowl of noodles for you and write it on the account."

"No."

Xu Jun opened an umbrella and stepped out the door.

Looking at her slim figure moving away, the proprietress murmured: "What is this woman's origin? She's not a local person, but she's young but comes to the capital alone. It's said she's looking for someone..."

Suddenly, a flash of light in my mind, and a greedy light flashed in my eyes, and I shouted: "Ahai, take care of the shop first, I'll go out."

He took an umbrella and hurried out. Half a quarter of an hour later, he came to a courtyard and slapped the door vigorously.

The door opened, and a servant stuck out his face. When he saw it was her, he said in surprise: "Boss, why are you here today?"

"Stop talking nonsense, please be in there."

The servant said in embarrassment: "I'm here..."

Seeing him hesitate, the boss lady snorted coldly: "Isn't it just a quarrel with the vixen? Go and call him up and say I have something to look for."

The servant responded and asked the proprietress to sit in the living room for tea, but he went inside to report.

A quarter of an hour later, a man came out in his clothes and coughed dryly: "Wu Niang, you are here." He is rich and noble, isn't he the local snake figure in this area, Mr. Cai?

The fifth lady said sourly: "With the newcomer's warm bed, no matter how much you care about the old man's sleep alone, of course you don't want others to come."

Mr. Cai laughed and came over to hug her. He stumbled into the underworld with his right hand, flowing upwards, and soon held a ball of warm and softness, playing with it: "I will go to the inn to accompany you tonight."

These five ladies and half-aged women still have charm and are still charming.

The woman angrily said, "You know how to talk and coax people."

The man and woman were so kind for a moment, and Mr. Cai asked, "Do you have something to do with me?"

The woman nodded and took out the piece of jade.

When Mr. Cai saw it, his eyes immediately shone, and he took it with him a little out of control. He couldn't put it down and said in surprise: "Nanyu, this is the legendary Nuanyu."

When the woman heard this, she was also surprised: "Are you sure?"

Mr. Cai calmed down and carefully identified it, and could not hide his ecstasy: "You can't be wrong. This thing is a priceless treasure. Wearing it on your body can warm your body and refresh your mind..."

The woman said to herself, "No wonder she was dressed thinly. She thought she had no money to buy clothes, but she turned out to be wearing Baoyu and was not afraid of the cold... Oh, you hurt me."

It turned out that Mr. Cai was excited and used a little force to ask anxiously: "Where did this jade be obtained?"

The woman told the story.

After hearing this, Mr. Cai slapped his thigh and laughed wildly: "It's my turn to make a fortune!" (To be continued...)
