After a long time, there was still a lot of discussion in the school.
It can be seen how incredible the previous scene was in the eyes of these students.
And the old gentleman on the podium didn't seem to have come back to his senses. He was silent for a long time and didn't know what he was thinking.
The gentleman glanced in Li Youlan's direction from time to time, feeling that the relationship was unusual, but who knew that what he was really looking at was the most inconspicuous little book boy.
After these few glances, Xia Shang understood in his heart. It seemed that not only did he recognize him, but he also recognized who I was!
The reason why there were previous strange things was that this old gentleman’s true identity was a subordinate of Xia Shang.
The head of the State Education Department—Feng Qi!
Why does Feng Qi appear here?
The Twelve Divisions of Jingmen are the twelve darkest forces in the capital, and the leaders of the Twelve Divisions are not good people. Even the nobles or the civil and military officials do not like to have anything to do with the people of the Twelve Divisions.
How could Feng Qi become the teacher of these little ghosts with extraordinary identities and backgrounds?
This must be the emperor's intention, but is it true that the current emperor is confident that the kid who is related to the future of the Chinese Dynasty will be taught by the people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate?
Or is it that Fengqi himself has another identity, but people in the capital don't know about it?
The old man Fengqi is a bit weird. It is said that he is the same as Xia Shang. He does not know any martial arts and has no extraordinary abilities. Even the State Education Department has ceased to exist in name only, and he is the only one left in the entire State Education Department. But he prefers
Occupying one of the twelve divisions, no one has shaken it for more than sixty years.
Xia Shang asked Yu Ji, and she didn't know anything about Feng Qi's amazing deeds. She only knew that this old man was smooth when he was young and made friends everywhere. He became the best person to get along with among the Twelve Divisions. And the State Education Secretary
It is also the only non-offensive department among the twelve departments. It is mainly responsible for the work of cultural dissemination. In this era, it was a remote sinecure without much real power. Therefore, during the turmoil fifty years ago, the state religion
The Department became the only department outside the center of the turmoil. But later, for some unknown reason, the people in the State Education Department dispersed, and in the end only Fengqi was left.
Anyone who knows the Twelve Divisions and the State Education Secretary Fengqi will never say that Fengqi is included in the list of people who need attention. His existence seems to be just like the gentleman in front of him, and it is still worth it in front of a group of children who do not understand the world.
Dear.
Meeting Feng Qi suddenly is not a good thing in the long run.
In the entire capital, there are no more than three people who can recognize Xia Shang, and Feng Qi is one of them.
Exposing his identity is not what Xia Shang wants.
Fortunately, Feng Qi is not one of the people Xia Shang least wants to see.
But which side Feng Qi is on and what his plans are cannot be guessed by Xia Shang.
Now that he has been recognized by the other party, there is no point in thinking too much about it. It is hard to say whether it is a blessing or a curse, but his presence here is still helpful to the current situation. Just like just now, it can indeed save a lot of trouble.
.
Feng Qi's appearance disrupted Xia Shang's thoughts. On the first day he came to the palace to study with him, he was often distracted.
It turns out that one day has passed.
On the way back, Xia Shang was still thinking.
From the beginning, Feng Qi recognized Xia Shang, but throughout the whole day Feng Qi did not show any signs of knowing Xia Shang.
It seems that Feng Qi also has his own intelligence, and Xia Shangzheng also wants such a strange relationship.
When they arrived in front of the gate of Linshan Garden, Li Youlan got out of Jiaozi.
Xia Shang thought that this girl might have a good look on him because he had blocked her in the morning. Who would have thought that she only said coldly: "Give me the thing."
After saying that, before Xia Shang came to his senses, he snatched the small backpack Xia Shang was carrying, and then strode into the door alone.
Xia Shang saw clearly that this girl had a resentful look on her face, like an angry little daughter-in-law, and she didn't know what was going on.
Xia Shang also followed in, wanting to see what was wrong with this girl.
But after walking a few steps, someone appeared in front of him and stopped him: "Master Xia, Mr. Jia has been waiting for you for a long time."
Lord Jia?
The doubts in my heart flashed away, and then I understood something again.
Xia Shang had no expression on his face and followed the visitor all the way to a remote hut in the Villa.
There was only a dim candle in the small room. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Jia Shangjie's fat body and small head lying inside. His small eyes were shining, and he pointed to the stool in front of him: "Mr. Xia, come and sit down.
Bar."
Xia Shang was a little worried. He expected that Mr. Jia was here because he was investigating the identity of "Xia Hui".
Xia Shang knew that the identity of "Xia Hui" could not be fabricated casually. Anyone who was interested could easily find out the clues.
Xia Shang thought a lot about this matter and thought of many excuses, but he didn't expect to face the issue of identity so soon.
Although he had made a lot of preparations, when it came to this moment, Xia Shang was still unsure whether he could get through it.
Just when Xia Shang was worried, Jia Shangjie suddenly said: "I have investigated the identity of the young master. He is indeed from Min County, Changzhou. He grew up in a poor family and finally passed the scholar examination. He went to Beijing to take the examination last year, but missed the opportunity.
On the way back to my hometown, I learned that my mother had passed away, and I was heartbroken. It was indeed a regrettable experience. In the past, I had criticized the young master a lot, and I deeply regret that I didn’t know the young master’s experience. I came here with the young master today because I wanted to talk to the young master.
How about chatting a few words?"
Before Jia Shangjie finished speaking, Xia Shang felt uneasy in his heart. Although he tried his best to keep his expression calm, he couldn't help but frown.
What's happening here?
"Xia Hui's identity is not suspected?"
This is impossible.
After all, Jia Shangjie is the Minister of Household Affairs and a second-rank official in the imperial court. If he can't even find out the identity of a Spring Examination candidate, wouldn't his job as an official be in vain?
Even if it can't be found out, it shouldn't be the current behavior. It should be because it hasn't been found out and it should continue to be suspicious.
Why does he act like he has no more doubts now?
Xia Shang wanted to see some clues from his expression, but he got nothing. It seemed that Jia Shangjie was not lying, he seemed to really believe it.
If what Jia Shangjie said is true, someone must have tampered with it, at least to hide it from Jia Shangjie.
For Xia and Shang, this was naturally a great good thing, but this kind of good thing that fell from the sky made people feel uneasy.
He didn't have any allies in the capital, so why would someone secretly help him appear? What's even more terrifying is that the news about his entry into the capital was not leak-proof. In fact, someone had already noticed him!
Thinking about it, Xia Shang couldn't help but shuddered, and Jia Shangjie's voice came from beside him: "Mr. Xia, what are you thinking about?" (To be continued)
