"Cursing? I also hit people!" Jing Shao without saying a word, grabbed the man's collar, and punched him to the ground.

Three or four people at the same table see this, all up to pull, but was Jing Shao a punch a collectively put down on the ground.

"You ...... you dare to beat the lifer ......" The obscene-looking youth covered his left eye, climbed up and pointed at Jing Shao, fingers are angry shivering. They are all in the body of the people, usually in their hometowns, which see is not nodding and bowing to, how ever suffered this kind of aggression.

At first was knocked down that person is to find, even though made such a big commotion, around the guests did not come to persuade the fight, and even some of a table of expensive people still look at the appearance of a good show to look at them.

Most of the prominent nobles in the capital recognize the king, and those who are looking at the examination, naturally do not dare to come forward, in case of offense in the capital of what people, ten years of hard work will be put to waste, naturally, one by one shrinking his head and swallowing his voice as soon as possible to eat their own table meal to go away.

"Based on what you guys just said, even the New Scholar will have to be beaten!" Jing Shao said as he was about to go up and continue the beating, but was suddenly gripped by a glistening and slender hand on his wrist.

That hand is very good-looking, obviously a man's hand, but the skin is glistening like jade, as if the best suet jade carved into. The crowd followed the hand to see, but see a person wearing blue wide-sleeved tunic, the material at a glance is absolutely extraordinary. In fact, if you know the line can see, this is tribute satin, and Jing Shao body material is the same.

"How come you arrived a little late and you fought with someone again?" The warm voice was very pleasing to the ear, and the one who came was none other than Mu Hanzhang.

Nowadays, although he is a marquis, he has entered the court, Emperor Hongzheng didn't give him any substantial official position, so Mu Huanzhang, like Jing Shao, is the only idle person in the court. Only Jing Chen has been busy lately, he called him to the Ministry of Ceremonies from time to time to help, so Jing Shao will first come to occupy a position, waiting for his own princess to come over to eat.

When Jing Shao saw his own princess, the vicious expression on his face immediately turned into a smile, "No, I saw that they were good with their hands, so I compared them twice."

Mu Hanyang look at those few green one eye weak scholar, this is from where to see that they have good hands?

Jing Shao was glared at by his own Wangfei, grunted twice, came to his ear and said a general, clear the reason, Mu Huanzhang can not help but guffawed: "These lifts are just not learned enough, afraid of their own failure to lose face, and only then will say these sour words, why bother with their general knowledge."

This kind of words is supposed to persuade people, if it is a small voice persuasion is just, but Mu Hanzhang is with the volume of ordinary speech said out, although not big, but also enough people present to hear clearly.

"Pfft ...... "The Right Guard, who was sitting in the corner trying not to be noticed, couldn't help but spray the tea in his mouth when he heard this. This vindictive nature of the military division really hasn't changed at all.

The Left Guard silently took the cloth towel from Junior's shoulder and handed it to him.

Jing Shao turned his head to look at the two men and gave them a "I'll deal with you later" look.

The Right Guard immediately choked on the remaining half sip of tea.

"You ...... you ...... are too deceitful!" The lewd looking one originally thought that Mu Hanzhang was here to stop the evil behavior, but he didn't expect to be the one watching the fun.

"This brother, we have no grievances, why are we hurting people?" Although the one in the lead's face was white with anger, he at least had some sense.

"This is strange, this gentleman is just saying that some people don't have enough knowledge to say sour words, you didn't say sour words, why are you so presumptuous." Right guard today is touching the fish to escape lazy pulling the left guard to the capital to see the fun, now was found by the king, naturally can no longer shrink the head, busy out to help.

"You ......" these readers, although full of books, said to lift the curse is in any case not better than with the soldiers and generals every day knocking teeth of the right guard, only angry and trembling, see the right guard wearing a strong suit, full of soldiers and ruffians, do not want to talk to, and the more words. Turning to Mu Huanzhang, "Brother both questioned my knowledge, why don't we come to ask for some advice."

Mu Hanzhang laughed lightly, "I'm only asking you, why are you blabbering here?"

"The Great Ancestor has opened up the path of speech, and the great matters of the gods of society should be explored and delved into by the literati." Speaking of this, they immediately felt justified.

"What is the social grain?" Mu Hanzhang asked, following closely.

"The state of the nation is naturally the rivers and mountains, it's the state of the nation, we discuss the princes and dukes, and pinpoint the ills of the times, all for the sake of the state of the nation." The lewd-looking youth squinted a pair of green bean eyes and said.

"Five-colored earth sacrifice to the sky is for the community, the god of the five grains is for the Jik, the word "community and grain" refers to the country and the people, the man of letters, should be loyal to the monarch on the top, the bottom of the people's livelihood, for the world's people and toil," Mu Hanzhang slowly swept them a week, "you do not think of the country and the people's livelihood, and envied only a step to the sky, is the shame of the literati. It is the shame of the literati. It is not as good as the old farmers in the ridge, at least for the gods of the earth and grain to make their own efforts."

"Well said!" A neatly dressed lifer at the neighboring table couldn't help but applaud, "Brother's words are like the purest of enlightenment, Mister Ma admires them."

"Yes!" A few other tables came back to their senses and applauded along with them.

Mu Hanzhang's face was light and did not show any excitement, he just turned his head to look at Jing Shao. Being stirred up by this group of people, the mood to eat was gone, Jing Shao pulled his own princess, with two wilting subordinates, ready to change a restaurant.

After the four had left, the one surnamed Ma walked to the counter and asked the boss who had been as bland as ever, unaffected in the slightest by the counting: "Dare I ask the shopkeeper, who are those two gentlemen?"

Zhou Zhuan lazily raised his eyes, still playing the abacus loudly: "The capital is full of powerful people, what is the use of the guest to inquire about them?"

"I am thinking that that blue-clothed male's exit and talent is high, so it is not unlikely that he will be the new scholar of the subject this time, and I intend to go and make some acquaintance." That surnamed Ma was unapologetic.

"That one, is the Marquis Wen Yuan that you were discussing." Zhou Zhuan said slowly and leisurely.

"What?" The table was beaten feel ashamed, was trying to check out and leave, heard this, suddenly stopped in his tracks. The person at the head of the table grasped the counter and asked in a hurry, "Then the ...... person who just struck out to beat people."

"Naturally, it is the husband of Marquis Wen Yuan, His Highness King Cheng," Zhou Zhuan watched with interest as the man's face went white and he was about to slide to, and busily reached out and pulled him, saying with warmth and courtesy, "Remember to settle the money for the cup that King Cheng shattered as well, a total of seventy wen."

Since that day, the news that Marquis Wen Yuan but had real talent spread among the lifters.

February 9 will start, Jing Shao originally worried about their own Wangfei see the test of the pomp and circumstance will touch the scene, and now Marquis, but it does not matter, but also specifically with Mu Huanzhang riding on a small black to go to the Tribute House door, to see that the group of students bitter by the gatekeepers of the soldiers one by one to search the body, the appearance of a loss of civilization.

"Didn't you say you were going to see Jiang Lang, why did you run here?" Mu Hanzhang looked back at him.

"Haven't you never taken the guild exam? I'll bring you here to have a good time." Jing Shao hemmed and hawed and drove his horse forward so that he could see clearly, and seeing the miserable state of these people, Jun Qing would not regret marrying him.

Mu Hanzhang lost his smile, "It's not easy for my brother to arrange everything so properly, let's not add to the chaos here, let's go."

At the request of Dr. Jiang's request, Jing Shao transferred Jiang Lang to the capital, into the North Yamen forbidden army, specializing in guarding the capital's nine gates, because of the war between the two clans also made a merit, they gave a Jinggi Lieutenant's position, the pipe side of the side door, Jing Shao deliberately explained to let him to manage the east door.

"Greetings, Your Majesty and Marquis." Jiang Lang remained the same, and when he saw the two of them, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Are you still doing well here?" Mu Hanzhang asked him with a smile, Jiang Lang was a resourceful person with diligence, so he thought he would be reused wherever he was.

"Back to the words of the Marquis, this guard gate really do not need to wind and sun, just stand in one place every day, really not as painful as in the army." Jiang Lang smiled coyly, if it is not the old father at home repeatedly urged, and personally went to the king to beg for this errand to come, he really do not want to come out of the barracks.

"Now that there is no war, there is nothing to do in the camp, the day before yesterday, the left and right guards even ran to the capital, they are envious of you." Jing Shao laughed and patted Jiang Lang's shoulder.

"Below understand," Jiang Lang smiled, "when the king when to go to war again can be sure to bring my subordinate, this time has not yet been addicted to fight it!" The fact is also true, Jiang Lang all the way to the king's consort to do guards errands, rarely have the opportunity to go on the field to kill the enemy.

Farewell Jiang Lang teenagers, Jing Shao with his own princess straight toward the eastern suburbs, let the small black spread hooves running for a while, only to turn the horse's head, back to the original way a few miles, look around, instantly scampered into the barren forest.

This barren forest is Mu Hanzhang's share of the family property, which is still knee-deep in grass and overgrown with prickly forest.

Jing Shao buried the face of the person in his arms into his chest, "Hold me tight and hide your hands in your sleeves, don't scratch them."

Mu Hanzhang didn't know what he was doing by bringing himself to run into a place like this, the oncoming branches almost threw him in the eyes, so he could only turn around and bury his face in that broad and warm chest, and his pair of long and slender hands also shrunk into his sleeves and hid behind Jing Shao.

The warm body that actively embraced up in his arms made Jing Shao instantly a bit apathetic, and he couldn't help but slow down, pulling the reins with one hand and encircling that supple waist with the other, "Junqing, let's stay in the other courtyard tonight?"

Tomorrow is the tenth day of February, it is the day of rest, do not have to go to the court, since the princess also have to go to the court, Jing Shao have to sympathize with his body, every night do not dare to be too much, for fear that he can not stand in the court. But every day to eat half full is really difficult, so every Mu rest, have to eat a good enough.

Mu Hanzhang naturally understood what he meant, and since the horse was still running, he didn't raise his head and gave a hmmm in agreement.

Although the voice was small, it came through his chest, but Jing Shao could hear it clearly, and he couldn't help but crack his lips and quicken his pace.

Not long after scurrying out of the barren forest, Jing Shao patted the person in his arms.

Mu Hanzhang turned his head and saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but stare in disbelief, deep in this barren forest was actually a piece of open flat land, on top of the flat land, surprisingly dozens of tents were set up, and from time to time, there were soldiers infested in them. The center of the martial arts field there is also a group of generals in the drill, just no sound, do not shout any slogans, looks very strange.

Author's Note: Here's the thing, I'm going back to school today, but I have exams on Monday, so the compensatory second shift of Rough Nagasama will have to wait until after Tuesday~
