A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

"Brother Yang." Di Renjie said with a smile, "Boy, I'm already on my errand."

"Come!" Yang Sheng waved with chopsticks in his hand, "I have something to tell you."

Di Renjie was also sitting on the threshold and listening to Yang Sheng, "Your teacher has taken in another student named Xue Rengui, and he wants to put him in the army."

"I understand what Brother Yang means." Di Renjie said, "Brother Yang is worried about the teacher. Putting a person in the army will be bad for the teacher?"

Yang Sheng nodded pertinently, and took another mouthful of porridge.

"Brother Yang is worrying too much." Di Renjie said again, "In fact, the teacher did this to reassure the one in the palace."

"What do you mean?" Yang Sheng became more and more puzzled.

"Brother Yang will understand in the future." Di Renjie stood up with a smile, "It's getting late, boy, go back first."

Yang Sheng held the bowl and thought for a long time but still couldn't figure it out, so he walked home helplessly.

Di Renjie has been living in the village these years, and is very familiar with every plant and tree here. How many acres of land, how many families, and how many children are there in the village? There was a candle burning in the room, and he approached the door step by step.

Xue Rengui looked up at the person coming, "Who are you?"

"I'm here, Di Renjie." Di Renjie looked at Xue Rengui, "You must be the new disciple of the teacher."

"You are Di Renjie?" Xue Rengui said.

"I'm here." Di Renjie said with a smile, "Can I go in?"

Xue Rengui smiled and scratched the back of his head, "Come in, it's just that it's a bit messy here, and I haven't had time to clean it up yet."

Di Renjie looked at the old and broken walls, the dust made it hard to breathe, looked at a stone bed with haystacks, and asked, "Are you going to sleep like this at night?"

"All the way I came to Chang'an, I slept on the side of the road or in the woods. It would be nice to have a house." Xue Rengui said with a smile.

"It's true, teacher." Di Renjie helped Xue Rengui clean up.

"Actually, this house was not arranged by the teacher, but by Brother Yang." Xue Rengui answered honestly.

"Brother Yang?" Di Renjie patted the dust on his clothes, "Don't stay here, I have my own room in the academy, you can sleep in the academy, I can also sleep at the teacher's house."

"This won't work." Xue Rengui waved his hands again and again.

"Okay, you're welcome." Di Renjie pulled Xue Rengui out of the house and walked towards the academy, "Your accent is from Hexi."

"Yes." Xue Rengui replied, seeing that Di Renjie was wearing an official uniform, "Brother, are you an official now?"

"Just a small janitor of Dali Temple." Di Renjie said as he walked all the way, "Brother Xue, don't call me senior brother, you are many years older than me."

"Brother Di." Xue Rengui changed his words.

The academy has always been guarded. Seeing the guard, Di Renjie said, "This is the teacher's disciple. I let him live in the academy, and he will live in my dormitory."

The guard immediately moved out of the way when he heard the words.

Xue Rengui followed Di Renjie all the way in. He was very curious about the academy and kept looking around. He passed by the lively dormitory area, and then walked forward to the quieter teacher's dormitory area.

"Boy Di, come back to sleep tonight." An old gentleman greeted Di Renjie.

"I won't sleep here tonight." Di Renjie said to the old man, "This is the teacher's new student. He has no place to stay for the time being. He will stay with me first."

Xue Rengui introduced himself to several old gentlemen, "Student, Xue Rengui, met some old gentlemen."

Di Renjie took Xue Rengui to the door of his dormitory, took out the key to open the door, and lit a candle, "This is where you live. These days you live here first, and I will ask the teacher to arrange for you when you have a good place to go."

Xue Rengui looked at the room, it was very tidy, and there were a lot of books. The room smelled of pen and ink, "Thank you, Brother Di."

"You're welcome." Di Renjie also said with a smile, "I heard that the teacher is going to send you into the army. In the army, you should let go of your hands and be a good soldier. Don't care about other people's gossip. The teacher is full of Chang'an, good words There are bad things! It's just that the teacher doesn't say much, and there are some things that you have to think more about."

"I understand." Xue Rengui bowed after being instructed.

"I'm going back first." After Di Renjie finished speaking, he helped Xue Rengui close the door and left. After talking for a while, he found that Xue Rengui was a very ordinary person. Put him in the army, thinking about walking all the way back.

At home, Gu Qing was dictating Wu Mei while writing, writing down some key points of science according to the memory of later generations, "Let's take a break."

"En." Wu Mei relaxed her wrist, Gu Qing's handwriting was too poor.

Seeing Di Renjie come home, Gu Qing walked out of the room, "It's the first day I'm working as an errand, how do you feel?"

"There was a murder case." Di Renjie said, "Many people died. The students suspect that it was Sister Yue from Hulou."

Chapter 237

"Lao Yang told me about this." Gu Qing also replied, "Don't meddle if you can. The relationship between us and Sister Yue is unclear. It's always right to be on guard."

"Yes." Di Renjie answered. "Teacher, I have visited Xue Rengui."

"What do you think of him?" Gu Qing sat down and drank his tea.

"It's very suitable to be a soldier." Di Renjie replied.

"Yeah." Gu Qing nodded and asked Di Renjie, "Do you want to get sick tomorrow?"

Hearing this, Di Renjie blinked vigorously, "Huh?"

"It's like this." Gu Qing said, "As a teacher, I want to write down some key points of scientific knowledge, and then write it into a book. Your teacher's wife has already written dozens of pages, which is too long to finish. "

"Students understand." Di Renjie continued, "This is the first book written by Master, so the students will naturally do their best."

After Di Renjie said this, Gu Qing thought about it and said, "It's still too slow for the two of you to write. This is not just a book for teachers. This book is scientifically condensed with the painstaking efforts of many ancestors. Look at how many people are interested in science in the academy." It is better to ask the students to write it together, this is the first book of our first university in the Tang Dynasty, and there will be more books in the future."

The next day Gu Qing came to the academy early in the morning and saw Xue Rengui, "Did you sleep well last night?!"

"Back to teacher, this student is sleeping well." Xue Rengui stared at the two dark circles under his eyes.

"It's okay if you haven't slept." Gu Qing looked at Xue Rengui with a smile.

Xue Rengui also laughed, "I didn't sleep well, but I knew I was going to be in the army, so I couldn't sleep because of the happiness."

"Let's go, let's go to Chang'an."

"Teacher." Xue Rengui took out a penny, "Here is a penny, I owed the teacher yesterday."

Smiling and accepting a penny, Gu Qing nodded to Xue Rengui, "Very good."

He took Xue Rengui all the way into Chang'an City, came to Zuowuwei with familiarity, and saw Su Dingfang who was processing paperwork, "Old Fang, I'm here to see you."

"Gu Qing?!" Su Dingfang saw Gu Qing get up, "Why are you here?"
