Daqi's Capital City is also known as Nankang.At the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is different from other places.

As the century-old capital of the Qi Dynasty, Nankang is the absolute center of politics and culture. Its geographical location is naturally superior, surrounded by moats, and the mountains stretching on both sides of the northwest are natural barriers.attack.

Wen Yu spent nearly a month on the road from Lingchang County to Capital City.Even though he was wearing a plain but extremely warm blue-gray thin cotton robe, the cold wind could not help whizzing into his neck.

The streets in Capital City are like a chessboard, intertwined and scattered, with a unique pattern.

The package Wen Yu brought was temporarily stored in the station.

It was still early and she was wandering the streets.

The more you walk in, the more prosperous it becomes. The green tiles and red walls, the signboard flags on the shops facing the street flutter in the wind, the bustling carriages and pedestrians, and the endless stream, the prosperity of Capital City can be seen.As walked, exclaimed in heart. There is nothing like this for Grandma Liu to enter the Grand View Garden.

The attribute of road idiots reappears when people are unfamiliar with people and places they are not familiar with.The layout of Lingchang County is not as complicated as that of the capital city. All kinds of streets are intertwined, and if you take a wrong turn, you will arrive at another place.

Wen Yu asked a few kind passers-by, and finally arrived at the North District, where the inner and outer cities meet.

The outer city is where the common people live in the urban area. In addition to the imperial palace, the inner city also includes the mansions of princes and ministers in the southeast next to the imperial city. Apart from the residences of princes and nobles, most of them are houses rewarded by the emperor.live here.

Wu Ju also lived in this place.

She knew Wu Ju, or in other words, all scholars in the Qi Dynasty did not know Wu Ju, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion.

Wen Yu was startled when he heard Wu Ju's name from Lu Yigui.

Before going to school a few years ago, she deliberately inquired about the Bocai private school. Most people said that Lu Yigui, Master Lu is a scholar from other places.Feed themselves.

But after several years of getting along, Lu Yigui's intellectual disposition is not at all like an ordinary frustrated candidate, especially his interpretation of the war is more like a person who has been to the battlefield in person.During the Double Ninth Festival last year, when Lu Yigui was seriously ill, she also found that there were many marks on the teacher's body that looked like swords.

Although Wen Yu was puzzled, this did not prevent her from respecting Lu Yigui from the bottom of her heart.

Maybe it was because she was too shocked to see her expression. This little old man who was nearly seventy years old had white hair and smiled happily.

"I have been teaching you for more than three years, and now you are a well-known young man in Lingchang County. As your teacher, I must have some skills. Since you call me teacher, I will be responsible to you."

Lu Yigui knocked her on the head: "Boy, you're not the smartest person I've ever met, but you're worthy of the title. But if you really become an official, it's useless to be smart. You have to be wise.do you know?"

Holding the wine at the table, Lu Yigui took another sip, but he didn't expect that he started coughing as soon as he drank it, and the series of movements almost made his lungs come out.

Wen Yu snatched the jug: "Teacher, I think it's best to stop drinking when you recover from illness."

Lu Yigui's naughty mentality broke out, and he looked at her and clicked his tongue three times: "young man, why are you so stubborn? I can't quit drinking. I didn't know you were so stubborn at the beginning. You said quit drinking and drinking eight hundred timesAlready."

Having said that, Lu Yigui's face was full of smiles, he threw the small wine pot on the table, and said seriously: "The old man's original name is Lu Youzhi, and he resigned from office and returned to his hometown ten years ago. But who knows that the old fox in Wu Ju, actually entered the cabinet a few years ago."

Wen Yu's hand holding the letter trembled a little.

Lu Youzhi, Minister of the Ministry of War.Ten years ago, eunuchs violated rights and party disputes were frequent.At that time, Lu Youzhi spoke out and offered advice, and like Wu Ju, he was a firm advocate of the war.But the sage listened to the slander, and in order to stabilize for a while, he gave money, gold, silver, silk and porcelain, and even married the eldest princess to get married in order to stabilize for a few years.Later, when Lu Youzhi resigned from office, everyone thought that this tough guy had passed away.

Wen Yu couldn't control her shocked expression at this moment: "Teacher, do you want the students to—"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Yigui interrupted: "What do you look like hesitantly, go aside, who wants you to do something. Young people think too much, I just want you to give this letter to Wu JuThat old man."

"You are my student, so I can't let you suffer in Capital City. Wu Ju and I are from the same school. Seeing the kindness we have in the past, we won't treat you badly."

"Wen Yu, don't just be a juren who became famous at a young age."

Time turns back to the present.

Wen Yu stood in the bustling downtown of Capital City. Although she was dressed plainly, she had a fair complexion and a handsome face, which naturally attracted the attention of many girls on the street.Of course, her new-to-Capital City bumpkin behavior also attracted others.

The teacher asked her to go to Wu Ju directly after she came to Capital City, and the letter——

"You are the Juren master who came to Beijing this year to catch up for the exam, right?"

Wen Yu was startled abruptly by the voice behind him.

A middle-aged man in brown clothes poked out from behind, smiling all over his face."I can see that you are not an ordinary person with your whole body. The winter solstice is coming soon, and most of the people who are rushing to Capital City at this time are Juren."

Wen Yu nodded lightly at him, somewhat unable to make any sense of the matter.

The man in brown rolled his eyes a few times: "If anyone knows the North District, no one can compare to me, Zhao Er. This North District is the most prosperous place here, especially the night market at night., would you like me to introduce you to a few places to live, so that you can live comfortably and satisfactorily."

It turned out to be Fang Ya (a real estate agency), no wonder his eyes are so sharp, and he probably has been soliciting customers recently.When Zhao Er started to boast about himself and his staff's high-quality houses, Wen Yu silently said goodbye and left quietly.

After about three more blocks, the scenery changed and the streets became wider.There are fewer pedestrians walking around, more low-key or luxurious carriages, and servants in uniform or similar clothes can be seen everywhere accompanied by sedan chairs.

A glossy black steed drove through the streets, galloping its hooves and snorting gracefully. The bronze eagle sculpture on the axle of the carriage behind it was particularly eye-catching under the light.

The picture of Yongshui Village a few years ago suddenly flashed in my mind, the same eagle sculpture, the same style.

The man in the car was wearing a scarlet official uniform, with a silver leather belt around his waist, his brows were frowning and his thin lips were tightly closed.

After walking in this southeast block for less than half an hour, Wen Yu finally found the Wu Mansion. The two stone lions at the gate stared wide open, and the two guards stood on both sides of the gate holding long soldiers, looking very majestic.

Wen Yu stood outside the gate of the Wu Mansion, and the guard on the right walked towards her: "Who is coming here? This is the mansion of the Wenyuange University Scholars. If there is no invitation, leave quickly."

Wen Zhen: "This is a letter from my teacher Lu Youzhi entrusting me to Master Wu, asking me to come and see Master Wu."

The guard's expression changed: "Please let me know."

After a while, Wen Yu was respectfully invited in and brought to the living room.

The maid in bi-color attire served tea and snacks and asked her to wait here.About two incense sticks later, a hale and hearty old man in a dark brocade shirt came in from outside, with piercing eyes and a rather kind demeanor.

It's just that the first thing he said when he walked in was: "I didn't expect that old man Lu Youzhi to be alive."

Wu Ju sat down at the main seat, looked Wen Yu up and down: "You are Wen Yu."

"Mr. Hui, it is a student."

Wu Ju: "Next year, I can have confidence in the spring."

"Students have."

Wu Ju smiled: "I'm confident, and it's almost the same as Song Duan at the beginning."

Song Duan, a student of Wu Ju, the twenty-six-year-old servant of the household department, heard that Yu was stunned, twenty-six, the third rank, a Beijing official.

Wu Ju asked a few words about Lu Youzhi's recent situation, picked up the teacup, picked up the tea lid and tapped the rim of the cup a few times, and took a sip of the tea: "You can stay in my house and prepare for the exam with peace of mind, you are also my teachernephew."

His expression was calm, without any strangeness, and he didn't give Wen Yu a chance to refuse.

This is a not-so-big small courtyard in the outer courtyard of the Wu Mansion. The plaque in the small courtyard reads: Shabby room.Mr. Liu's house is a humble room, but my virtue, coupled with the arrogant and wild grass, it is not difficult to see the arrogance of the person who wrote the pen.

There is a master bedroom, a second bedroom, a kitchen and a study in the yard.Wen Yu lived in the second bedroom on the right.

I heard from the servants of the Wu mansion that the master bedroom was lived in by Song Duan, a student of Mr. Wu Ge many years ago. This room is still reserved for him, and the words on the plaque on the gate of the courtyard are also written by him.

This place is not remote, but also very quiet. It is not far from the side entrance of the Wu Mansion, so it is very convenient to enter and exit.

The servants of the Wu Mansion brought over winter quilts and cotton clothes, and treated the guests very thoughtfully.

In late November, the first snow in the cold winter.

In front of the door of the shabby room, Phoenix Eyes, who was chosen by the visitor, squinted for a moment, and became a little interested: "I didn't expect that there is another person living in this yard. It seems that it is my new little brother."

It was dusk at this time, Wen Yu closed the book, she had just fully understood Wu Ju's strategy for her, and her head was still a little dazed.

A lazy and deep voice suddenly broke into his mind at this moment.

There was a light knock on the door.

"Junior Brother Wen Yu, open a door for Senior Brother~"

Wen Yu shook her somewhat dazed head.

"Well, seeing something once is better than hearing it one hundred times, I'm Song Duan, you can call me Senior Brother."

The halo at dusk blurred the shadows, and there was a thin layer of snow and frost floating on Song Duan's head. He looked like a flirtatious gentleman, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

Two words instantly came to mind: the crown is like Song Yu, the appearance is like Pan An, beauty really has no gender, the world does not deceive me.

And because Song Duan's first impression on her was so deep that she always had a gentle and elegant filter towards this man, and it was only later that she realized what the hell was dignified and elegant, and this man was a lunatic.
