Chapter 14 Xiaoyu

Seeing the woman laughing hilariously, Xue Chongxun was puzzled and couldn't help but ask: What's so funny?

She finally laughed and was about to speak, but she burst out laughing again, hurriedly covered her mouth with her little hands and said: You... are so stupid. Chang'an City is so big. Even if we can meet for the second time, can we meet for the third time?

Xue Chongxun suddenly said: So that's it, I didn't pay attention to this problem for the time being.

The woman giggled and said: It’s not that you are stupid, but that you look like you, Mumu, it’s really... Oh, forget it, if I don’t talk about this, my stomach hurts.

Her smile infected Xue Chongxun, and Xue Chongxun's mood also became happy, as he was close to Zhu.He also smiled and said: Why have you come to Daqin Temple again?

I'll wait for someone.Speaking of this, her smile gradually disappeared, replaced by a faint melancholy.

Seeing this, Xue Chongxun kindly asked: Is the agreed time already past and he hasn't come yet?

The woman nodded and said: It was originally agreed that it was three days ago, but now he hasn't come yet... The day when the scientific test was released was three days ago, right?

Are you talking about the Jinshi list?It seems that the ranking was opened three days ago.

Xue Chongxun said.

The imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty were different from those of the Ming and Qing dynasties. They did not need to go through a series of promotion examinations such as the early complicated series of children's students, county exams, and provincial exams. The imperial examination system was not so perfect at this time. The same is that if you pass the imperial examination, you will be qualified to be an official. This is a good way for children from poor families to enter the officialdom.

Of course, people like Xue Chongxun don’t need to take such exams, they will have titles when they are born.

I wait until sunset today. If he doesn't come yet, I will go to their house to find him tomorrow.The woman said.

It seems that they are just a talented man and beautiful woman.

Xue Chongxun was still in a good mood and had no jealousy. His marriage would be mainly determined by political needs and would not be able to deal with the women in ordinary people: the woman in front of him could not have a result with him. If he really pursued others, it would be like harming others.

So Xue Chongxun didn't have that idea from the beginning, but such an encounter felt really beautiful, a simple and pure acquaintance.

Xue Chongxun was in a good mood for a moment and became a little enthusiastic and asked: If you go to their house by yourself, it would be bad, and it would leave his family with the impression that he was ignorant of etiquette.I suggest you beg Lingzun Lingtang to find a matchmaker and then discuss it with his high hall. This is better.

The woman shook her head and said: Look at what you said, it actually touched the words of the matchmaker from her parents' orders. I can only be his concubine, and what else should I pay attention to? Besides, his hometown is not in Chang'an and his parents are not here.

oh?Xue Chongxun was a little confused.

The woman thought for a while and said: It’s nothing to tell you. I am a singing girl from "Shuiyunjian". Haha, if you have a good mood, you can come to listen to my singing songs these days. Maybe I will leave there in a few days.

After hearing this, Xue Chongxun looked at the woman up and down, but he really didn't realize that such a person was actually a brothel singing girl. She was probably young and dressed up relatively elegantly.

After a moment of difference, Xue Chongxun became calm and said casually: I haven’t asked Xiao Niang about her name. If I really want to go to Shuiyunjian to listen to the music, I would be more than asking about it.

Meng Xiaoyu.

Meng, light rain, hazy light rain.Xue Chongxun looked up at the rain curtain, which was similar to what we knew and was easy to remember.

Meng Xiaoyu sighed quietly: He said that he would welcome me into the door as soon as he passed the Jinshi exam. Are you saying what he said is true?

Xue Chongxun said: A Jinshi is not just a test, and the chance is very small, so he may not be able to pass the test.

Meng Xiaoyu smiled bitterly and said: He should have a great opportunity. Not only did he do good poetry and prose, but he also recommended him by the minister... Looking at the appearance of the husband, I wonder if he is a scholar?Do you know that the biggest threshold for getting the Jinshi exam is to get the appreciation and recommendation of ministers in the court?

Maybe it was because Xue Chongxun was relatively dark and had a heroic spirit. He did not look like a talented man, but his behavior was very appropriate and elegant, so Meng Xiaoyu didn't dare to make a decision.

Xue Chongxun asked: Is he related to the court?

He originally wanted to ask which minister he was, but in the end he didn't ask this sentence, because if he asked this, it would easily reveal that he was a official figure.

Since we met by chance, it is easier to get along with each other without knowing each other's vagueness.

Meng Xiaoyu said: Is it a big deal to have money?

Xue Chongxun accidentally flashed an idea, afraid she would pay the talented man to buy official money.

Because most people with poor backgrounds cannot afford to bribe ministers. On the contrary, those singers with a little fame may be very rich, although their status is very low.

At this time, Meng Xiaoyu asked again: Do you think he will keep his promise?

After hearing this, Xue Chongxun remembered a sentence: I would rather believe that there are ghosts in the world than that of a man's mouth...

He thought for a while and said: Actually, you don’t have to ask me, if you can give him a lot of money, don’t you believe him?

Meng Xiaoyu was silent and confirmed Xue Chongxun’s guess just now.

Xue Chongxun looked up at the sky and said: It’s getting dark. I’m afraid he won’t come today. Shuiyunjian seems to be on the other side of Anyifang. It happens that I live there too. Do you want me to take you there?

Thank you, I'll wait a little longer, I'll be able to hire a carriage at the intersection, and I'll appreciate the kindness of the husband.

OK, say goodbye.

Meng Xiaoyu suddenly remembered something: What are you doing here?I haven't seen you do anything.

Xue Chongxun suddenly said: I'm too idle. I originally wanted to come to see if there is really a remorse temple in Daqin Temple, but I said a lot to you, and it's getting late, so it's better not to watch it.If I go in and repent, I will have to say that tomorrow morning, and the priests will not be able to stand it.

Meng Xiaoyu was immediately amused and said with a smile: I can’t tell that Langjun is such a bad person. Your appearance reminds people of the sunshine, well, the sun tans you.

Xue Chongxun clasped his fists and said: Some people said so before.After saying that, he quickly ran onto the carriage parked aside and asked Pang Er to drive the horse away.

The wheels of the car were rumbling, and Xue Chongxun was the only one on the carriage. He sat inside and suddenly laughed, and said to himself: Meng Xiaoyu, the hazy Xiaoyu... There should be many people who have seen a singing girl, why can she be so stupid?

It can be seen that love is sometimes not a good thing, and it can make people become fools.Thinking of this, a sense of fear popped up in Xue Chongxun's heart.

Pang Er heard Xue Chongxun's voice, but he didn't hear it clearly. Pang Er hurriedly asked: "Mr. Lang, what did you say, I didn't hear it."

Xue Chongxun said to the front: I'm hungry, add two whips and go home for dinner.
