Book Carefully Outside the Episode, Nie Yang and Nie Qing's Next Chapter

Spring goes and autumn comes, cold and summer are easy to festival.

Nie Yang looks like a young child, but inside he is a scheming adult.

While helping his master to manage the private school, he devoured the knowledge of this era. The master didn't stop him, and occasionally pointed out Nie Yang. In his eyes, Nie Yang is destined to be an extraordinary person, and if he has a good future in the future, he will also benefit from it.

When Nie Yang was ten years old, his master suggested that he take part in the children's examination to try his luck.

The child's birth test is divided into three stages: county test, government test and college test. If you pass the test, you can still receive public food every month to make ends meet.

Even if it can't go further, it's still much better than ordinary people.

Nie Yang said humbly, "My foundation is still superficial, I'm afraid I won't pass the exam."

The master said, "Tongsheng test is not as difficult as you think. According to your current skills, there is probably no problem."

Participating in the children's examination required complicated procedures. The master let him review with peace of mind, and ran around to complete the procedures in person.

Nie Yang watched from the side, feeling unspeakable melancholy in his heart.

Neither Nie Qing nor the master knew what kind of shit the real Nie Yang was.

The master borrowed some money from Nie Yang, and gave him a ride to attend the Tongsheng Examination.

As the master expected, the difficulty of Tong Sheng's test was not high, and it was not challenging for Nie Yang at all.

The first time he took the exam, he passed the exam and became an outstanding student. At the same time, he became the youngest one in that class, and he was also known as a genius.

Nie Yang's life has improved a lot with the endowment treatment. He still stays in the private school to make a living, and spends more time studying every day.

After several years of quiet preparation for the exam, Nie Yang took part in the Qiuwei Township Examination at the age of sixteen, Zhongjieyuan, and then Chunwei, Zhonghuiyuan. Nie Yang went from second place to No. 1.

He didn't reach the weak crown, but he won three yuan in a row. For a while, Nie Yang's worth rose, and there were endless forces to win him over.

Outsiders thought that Nie Yang would drift away because of this, but who knew that this little champion man could hold his breath and act like everyone else. If he were thrown into the ranks of the rich and powerful in Beijing, he would not be able to see Nie Yang just by looking at his temperament. Yang was once a beggar, more like a born rich man.

Nie Yang didn't drift because he knew very well that the number one scholar was just a ticket to enter the officialdom, not a ticket to the finish line.

How high he can climb and how much power he can control in the future will all depend on his future management.

At the Qionglin Banquet, many people wanted to see what the number one scholar who was not as weak as the crown looked like.

With Qinghe's harmless smile on Nie Yang's face, he was still able to move among the rich and powerful with ease, and his every move was not like a bookworm studying hard in a cold window, but more like a veteran official with long sleeves and dancing skills. Before the imperial examination, Nie Yang had tried his best to find out the situation in the DPRK and China.

The present emperor's surname is Nie. He was thirty-two years old when he ascended the throne in the first year of Taikang. He has five sons and three daughters. The first four princes have reached adulthood. Counting, he is half a year older than Nie Yang.

A few years ago, Empress Yuan died of illness, and the emperor deliberately suppressed the lineage of Empress Yuan's natal family, and the four older princes entered the court one after another after they became adults. The crown prince is only the prince of the empire, and his enjoyment is only one step lower than that of the emperor. However, after all, he is not the emperor, and his life is in danger. Nie Yang smiled slightly, but in his heart he was calculating which prince would have the advantage.

but

His full calculations were still in vain, when he heard the name of the crown prince.

Nie Qing...

It was Nie Qing!

Nie Yang was very surprised, his hands trembled, and the wine spilled out.

After the Qionglin banquet started, the emperor, the prince and the other four princes appeared one after another,

Nie Yang's complexion changed over and over again.

Without him, the crown prince's face, figure, and manner of speaking are almost the same as his cousin Nie Qing in his previous life!

The difference is that his cousin Nie Qing is an elegant scholar, like a bright and clear moon, with a smile on his lips all the time, and his every move is a role model for noble sons of the gentry. Although the crown prince in front of him is similar, but there is a slight gloomy color added between his brows.

Nie Yang suppressed his beating heart and kept his breathing smooth, but Yu Guang couldn't bear to move away from the crown prince.

Why are they so similar?

Could it be that the crown prince is the reincarnation of his cousin Nie Qing?

It is also possible that Nie Qing was born rich and honored, and he did not do evil things, so it is only natural for him to be reincarnated into the emperor's family as a crown prince.

Nie Yang swallowed nervously, his hands hidden in his sleeves were constantly sweating, and his fingers were almost tangled up.

cousin

Nie Yang murmured in his mouth, and his eyes were steamed.

Others only thought that he was young and too strong to drink, and after a few jokes, they focused on the second place Tanhua.

In the middle of the Qionglin banquet, Nie Yang caught a glimpse of the crown prince getting up to leave the banquet. He also found an excuse to follow, but was blocked by someone.

"Why did Zhuangyuan Lang come here?"

The crown prince showed suspicious eyes, but the vigilance in his eyes made Nie Yang wake up instantly. He is not Nie Qing!

No, it should be said that he is not the Nie Qing I know.

Nie Yang turned around a few times in his heart, but his face showed embarrassment. He lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I...have too much to drink. I just drank too much, but I can't find a place to change clothes. It's not easy to ask." , That's why... Cough, please forgive me for your rudeness."

The crown prince's face softened, and it was also because Nie Yang was born too harmless, making it hard for people to be vigilant. Maybe it's a dark fate, Nie Yang's appearance in this life is exactly the same as the previous life, so he naturally knows how to show his harmless side.

The crown prince's face softened after hearing this, and he called Gong'e to lead Nie Yang.

Nie Yang watched his back go away, with an indescribable soreness in his heart.

I owed so much in my previous life, can I repay them all in this life?

After the Qionglin Banquet was over, Nie Yang taught the Imperial Academy to edit and compose. From the sixth rank, he was in charge of compiling national history, compiling factual records, and recording the words and deeds of the emperor. Simply put, he was a secretary. For Nie Yang, who had a bad background, this position was a fairly high starting point. If you don't work hard, you will probably spend your entire life in this position. If you do well and win the Sacred Heart, then the role and rights of this position are not small.

In fact, it wasn't that there was no record of the number one scholar Lang being a sixth rank for a lifetime.

The imperial examination is just a ticket. After entering this officialdom, how high one can climb in the end depends on one's ability.

Nie Yang smiled and narrowed his eyes, not worried about his future at all.

Although Nie Qing said that he had a bad temper, he had to admit that only people with his personality could thrive in the officialdom.

In contrast, it was the crown prince who made him care more.

"Nie Qing..."

Nie Yang murmured, and a flash of determination flashed in his eyes.

Regardless of whether the crown prince is a reincarnated cousin or not, he must assist the other party to ascend to the throne of God, so... maybe there will be no debts.

Nie Yang's character was born for officialdom, or in other words, he was born to eat this bowl of rice.

It only took half a year to figure out the emperor's mind, and he became a trusted vassal of the emperor, and his future was limitless.

The dignitaries in the court tried to win over the upstart, and the four grown-up princes also tried to extend an olive branch to him.

Nie Yang neither refused nor gave an affirmative reply, and did his job honestly.

Because he became an editor of the Imperial Academy, Nie Yang had more chances to meet the crown prince. Because they were similar in age, they had more topics than others, and they could occasionally talk to each other. After some contact, Nie Yang also gained a deeper understanding of the crown prince's status.

In a word, it is not optimistic.

The life and death of the Empress Yuan, the suppression of the mother clan one after another, the pressing of the four elder brothers, and the increasingly ambiguous attitude of the emperor towards the prince... In such a situation where all sides are surrounded, let alone the prince, he can change at will. Individuals are forced to become violent.

Nie Yang waited for the crown prince to recruit him, but after waiting for more than half a year, he didn't even fart.

He couldn't wait any longer, so Nie Yang took the initiative to attack, suggesting that there was a problem with Nie Qing's camp.

The Crown Prince was stunned for a moment, and smiled gently, "I heard that Zong Yi declined the four imperial brothers one after another. Gu is still curious, guessing that Zong Yi has other plans, such as being devoted to his father...but unexpectedly, Zong Yi originally wanted Gu? I'm afraid that the current situation will disappoint you."

After all, the crown prince is the crown prince, and he is excellent in all aspects. In Nie Yang's view, he is almost the same as his cousin.

If it wasn't for the surrounding situation to remind him, he would have thought that the two of them had returned to the previous life.

Nie Yang's heart moved slightly, he didn't expect the crown prince to be so clear about his situation.

That being the case, why didn't he think of a way to save himself?

From Nie Yang's point of view, the crown prince's recent attitude is a bit negative.

"Your Highness's words are wrong. You are the crown prince, the son of the Empress Yuan, the crown prince of the world, and the legitimate successor." Nie Yang said word by word, "As long as your highness can calm down, you will be dedicated to the king, father, court, and Common people, how did the four princes surpass you?"

This is not passive resistance, it is called responding to all changes without change.

Nie Qing felt warm in his heart, and his eyes were filled with rare sincerity.

"Grandpa Taifu and the others also said similar things, but at that time... Gu felt upset and couldn't listen to it at all. Zong Yi said this, but Gu heard it but had a different experience." When the crown prince met his eyes On the contrary, there is an unspeakable sense of familiarity in a trance.

Obviously he didn't have frequent contact with this Imperial Academy Xiuzhuan, but he subconsciously trusted him, as if he was an old friend from a previous life.

"If your Highness pays attention to the battle for the heir apparent, you will fall behind." Nie Yang said, "You are the crown prince, which is something you were born with. Why do you need to fight endlessly with several princes? You might as well take a look at this world, The common people and people's livelihood, this is the heart of the emperor, I think... His Majesty may also use this to sharpen you. The relatives are powerful, and they can help His Highness now, but they will become a hindrance in the future..."

The crown prince frowned, showing a bit of anger.

"Nie Yang, do you know what you're talking about?"

Sow discord between him and the mother clan?

Nie Yang said, "I know it well."

The crown prince said, "Then you still dare to say it?"

Nie Yang said, "There are some things that I know I can't say, but I still have to say them. I serve the emperor wholeheartedly. You are orthodox, so naturally I have to plan for you."

The crown prince choked, but it was undeniable that Nie Yang's words swept away the anxiety of recent years and calmed his heart down.

"I don't know why..." The crown prince took a deep look at Nie Qing, "I feel lonely, you seem to be looking at someone."

Nie Yang's smile was a little bit awkward, and he said in embarrassment, "I said something offensive, I have a cousin, he is also called 'Qing'. Last year at the Qionglin Banquet, I heard His Highness's name taboo, and I couldn't bear it for a while... So , I feel very close to His Highness, please forgive me."

The crown prince did not expect this to be the reason, and raised his hand to help Nie Yang, who bowed in apology.

"It's not a big deal." The Crown Prince said, "Where is your cousin now?"

Nie Yang said, "I made a mistake, unfortunately my cousin died early. Before he died, he said to me, 'End of love and justice, we will never see each other again on the road to Huangquan'."

The crown prince was not angry at being offended, but rather curious about what wrong thing Nie Yang had done to make his cousin say such cruel words.

"No...it's not my cousin's fault. Although I have a clear conscience, as far as my cousin is concerned, it is indeed an unforgivable crime..."

"Zong Yi looks like a woman, so she cried like this?"

Probably speaking, the Crown Prince's attitude towards Nie Yang was much gentler.

Nie Yang was shocked to realize that he was crying unknowingly, and felt a little bit ashamed.

"Actually... Don't hide it from Zong Yi, when I first met Zong Yi, I felt a little familiar."

When Nie Yang heard this, his eyes widened in astonishment.

No matter what the crown prince said was true or not, Nie Yang decided to bet all the chips on him.

As the emperor got older, the battle for heirloom became more and more serious. Nie Yang took advantage of this "demon wind" to skyrocket, and his official career was smooth. The position of assistant, the head of civil servants.

Although his relationship with the crown prince is good, it is limited to personal friendship. Politically, he should be angry or angry, which makes all civil and military officials look confused.

The crown prince's sense of existence is still very low, and his status seems to be shaky. The old emperor has never shown any intention of abolishing the establishment.

He was not in a hurry, but the four older princes were in a hurry.

Nie Yang watched with a sneer, planning the layout secretly, causing the eldest prince who controls the military power to make frequent tricks and frame... well, it can't be said to be framed. The eldest son of the emperor did have the idea of ​​forcing the palace. Ideas are visualized and put into practice.

The second prince supervised the imperial examination, and Nie Yang broke out a hugely influential fraud case in the examination room that year, and he was successfully dismissed.

The third prince is the son of the noble concubine, and he has weight in the imperial harem, so Nie Yang started from the noble concubine's mother's family.

In this world, there are only stains that have not been found, and there are no clean and refreshing high-ranking dignitaries.

The fourth prince is even simpler. Nie Yang himself is an Oscar winner. How can he not see that this fourth prince seems to be indisputable, but actually has a deep mind and a lot of calculations? Nie Yang also will not show mercy to the same kind. In just a few years, the princes were all fought down. He wiped out his political opponents in the front, and the crown prince Nie Qing took care of his tail in the back, so as not to be discovered by the old emperor.

Two years later, the old emperor became the crown prince, the government and the public were shaken, and Nie Yang was also stunned.

On the eve of ascension to the throne, the old emperor gave him a meaningful look, but the crown prince asked Nie Qing what he imagined for the future.

Nie Yang thought for a long time.

"For one thing, he is an extremely human minister."

"Secondly, my cousin is blocked on Huangquan Road."

"He said that we will never see each other on the road to Huangquan, but I want to meet up."

Nie Yang looked into the other person's eyes and said calmly, "Whether he recognizes it or not, I will pay off what I owe him."

The crown prince couldn't help laughing, "What if he doesn't recognize it?"

"Repudiation. Or..." Nie Yang said softly, "If he doesn't admit it, then he will be entangled in the next life."
