Hanlin Academy.
"Thank you, Xiuzhan, I'll leave first."
A colleague put away his pen and ink and blew out the candle on his desk. Xie Ling said: "Slow down."
However, the pen in his hand did not stop, and he continued to write quickly. From time to time, he glanced at the books spread out on the left, which were those national histories.
It has been less than half a month since Xie Ling was arranged by Yuan Huo to compile the history of the country. The Hanlin Academy is a somewhat magical place. The longer he stays, the more calm Xie Ling becomes, and the air is filled with new ink. The taste quickly calms people down.
He wrote the last word, then put down the pen, sorted out the written papers one by one and put them in the cupboard to dry, then tidied them up, blew out the candles, and left the Hanlin Academy.
At night, there is usually no one on this road, so today there was a man standing by the gate with a lantern. Xie Ling felt something strange, and stared at the man, but saw the man coming towards him. Come over: "But Mr. Xie Ling Xie?"
The other party called out his name in one breath, which showed that he was waiting here specially. Xie Ling stopped, looked at him and said, "I am, what do you want me to do?"
The man smiled and said: "I am a servant of Mr. Dou, the Minister of Rites. Mr. Dou asked me to come here specially to thank you for coming to the house."
"It turns out it's from my mentor's house," Xie Ling said, "I'd like to help you lead the way."
The servant hurriedly said: "The carriage is waiting in front, thank you for the invitation."
This is not the first time Xie Ling has come to Dou Mansion. He has been here several times since he was awarded the official post of editor of the Hanlin Academy, but this is the first time he has come at night.
Xie Ling could not have imagined why Dou Mingxuan suddenly invited her to come over at this time.
When he arrived at the flower hall, Dou Mingxuan was thinking hard about the chessboard. When he saw him coming, he quickly said: "You are here."
Xie Ling cupped her hands and said, "The student has met the teacher."
Dou Mingxuan said: "You came just in time. I have an endgame here and I am worried about it being incomprehensible. Come and take a look."
Xie Ling glanced at the chessboard and saw that the black pieces had formed an encirclement. The white pieces had no way out and were about to be trapped in the isolated city and die.
Dou Mingxuan smiled and said: "Today I will shamelessly bully the young people. Come on, you will take the white piece, I will take the black piece, and we, the teacher and the students, will have a fight."
He spoke very kindly, and Xie Ling did not refuse, saying: "Then the student has made a fool of himself, please be merciful, teacher."
After he finished speaking, he picked up a white piece. Dou Mingxuan said, "The white piece goes first."
Hearing this, Xie Ling was not polite and put the white piece into the game, but it was a very inconspicuous place. Dou Mingxuan stared at the piece he landed and speculated for a long time, but he couldn't guess what the way was, so he smiled and said : "Don't be polite to me."
Xie Ling nodded and said with a smile, "Yes."
While Dou Mingxuan was settling down, he chatted with him: "How have you been at the Hanlin Academy these days?"
Xie Ling replied: "I can still cope with it, and my colleagues are very approachable."
"That's good," Dou Mingxuan said, "Have I arranged something for you?"
Xie Ling dropped Bai Zi and said, "The Master asked me to study the history of the country with Academician Zhang."
Hearing this, Dou Mingxuan said in surprise: "But that period during the 20th year of Xuanhe?"
Xie Ling raised her head and looked at him: "Does the teacher know?"
"Yes," Dou Mingxuan pondered for a moment and said, "If it is that period of national history, the emperor has specifically decreed that it should be completed by the end of this year at the latest."
"It's true," Xie Ling dropped another piece and said, "It's the teacher's turn."
Dou Mingxuan suddenly came back to his senses, followed Heizi, and said: "In this case, you must be busy this year."
Xie Ling smiled and said casually: "It's a good thing to be busy."
After hearing this, Dou Mingxuan glanced at him subconsciously. Xie Ling looked back at him. The young man's eyes looked very transparent under the candlelight. He reminded: "Teacher, it's your turn."
Dou Mingxuan smiled and dropped the black stones. When he raised his hand, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He saw that the white stones on the chessboard had unknowingly spread into one piece, and in turn surrounded the black stones. Xie Ling's previous move up and down the corner , now it seems that the two pieces of white are connected.
Dou Mingxuan was stunned, and Xie Ling followed up with the last piece and said: "I give in, the student narrowly wins."
As soon as the white stone fell, the black stone on the chessboard was already in a dead end. No matter how much Dou Mingxuan tried to save it, it was too late. He sighed, threw the black stone back into the chess cup, and smiled., and wanted to ask her something. As for what to ask, Xie Ling hadn't thought about it yet. Although in fact, he couldn't do anything now. He could only try his best to imagine her current situation based on the few words in this letter. situation.
What is Ah Jiu doing now?
Cenzhou City.
It was late at night, the moon was pale and the stars were sparse, and Cenzhou City was falling into a tired sleep after the disaster. At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door of Cui Mansion in the quiet night. Someone was knocking on the door of Cui Mansion.
The servant was quarreled. He yawned and cursed his mother. He opened the door and saw a few servants standing at the door. His sleepiness was instantly wiped away. The servant quickly asked: "What business do you have for these gentlemen?"
A guard said loudly: "Are Doctor Chen and others resting in your Cui Mansion now?"
The servant replied: "Exactly, but they have already fallen asleep."
Another officer said anxiously: "You have to shout even after you fall asleep. There are a few people who are dying of illness. Please get them up and see if it's a plague?"
When the two words "plague" were said, the servant shuddered all over and turned pale. He said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, gentlemen, please wait a moment. I will wake them up right now."
Shi Hua was awakened by the banging on the door. She was very tired during the day, and she still had nightmares as usual at night. She didn't sleep deeply. She woke up not long after the banging on the door and said warily: "What?" people?"
A voice came from a servant of the Cui Mansion, saying anxiously: "Doctor Shi, someone from the Yamen has come and asked you doctors to go and see if there is a plague?"
Shi Hua suddenly became excited and quickly stood up and said: "I understand, please go and call Old Doctor Chen and Old Doctor Zheng."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away. Hurry up, Mr. Cha is still waiting outside."
