Seeing the little disciple stunned for a moment, Fang Qichen's sense of accomplishment as a teacher instantly rose!

As a disciple, shouldn't this be the case, eyes wide open, and praise the teacher's wit and foresight with his eyes and body.

In the past, Fang Qichen didn't keep much "face" that made people feel vain in front of the little disciples.

Because he had just accepted the young disciple as an apprentice, he encountered the great pain of discovering the bones of his "goddaughter". Under such circumstances, the young disciple could clearly see his fragility.

Then the little disciple didn't enjoy the slightest bit of goodness from him as a teacher, so he started to run around to get the real murderer Zhang Mingyu to go to jail. At a young age, he is very capable.

When he finished his work with his daughter, he had just taught his little disciple for a while, and the little girl had a fight with him again.His unreasonableness almost caused a big quarrel with the little girl. At that time, the little disciple was in the middle to mediate, so the relationship between the father and daughter not only did not regress, but went further.

Counting the past events in detail, Fang Qichen found that he only helped the little disciples in their studies.

Fang Qichen was very happy to be able to stun Jing Xingzhi now, even if it was just a trivial matter.

He thought triumphantly: Look, there is still something that you, a cunning little man, don't know!

The old man laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, and even showed his missing tooth in joy: "What a shock, what else can I tell you, there are many things you don't know!"

"Teacher is amazing!" Jing Xingzhi digested Brother Mingrui's misfortune, and raised his right thumb to the old man.

You said that this old man was also a high-ranking minister in the past, why doesn't he have the exquisiteness and demeanor of a high-ranking official at all, and why did he deliberately spit on others?That minister will do this? !

But thinking about it, the old man deliberately vomited three times because of Fang Yaojun and wanted to try Wu Mingrui, Jing Xingzhi felt that this old man was a bit cute.

Being able to let go of his figure for the little girl, that may be the most heroic time for the old man.

Fang Qichen stroked his beard, and decided to shock the little disciple again.He asked, "Do you know about Longevity Day in October?"

Jing Xingzhi replied: "The whole country celebrates the birthday of the Holy One."

Jing Xingyi calculated that it was more than a month before October, and asked, "Teacher, do you want to think about what gift to give?"

Fang Qichen shook his head: "No. The old man Li has already prepared, and I want you to deliver it this time."

"I'm going?" Jing Xingzhi was slightly taken aback.

"En." Fang Qichen nodded, "It's not shameful for you to rub off on your brother's prestige. That woman surnamed Wu is not a good stubble, and Ning Haibo is not reliable. If you know how to try, then go to the capital and hurry Yes, I'm afraid I will suffer."

In the eyes of outsiders, the young disciple is a pure scholar and can be called a gentleman.But Fang Qichen knows better that under the skin of the little disciple, a gentleman, is a wise, thick-skinned and quite courageous character.

With a character like this little disciple, he is jealous and narrow-minded, and the possibility of getting along with someone who has harmed him is too small.

The capital is far away, and it is impossible for Fang Qichen to follow, so I want Jing Xingzhi to go earlier, to get acquainted with Li Yunxi a little bit, to get acquainted with each other, and to be taken care of.

The little disciple is not weak and has a clever mind. With Wang Zhuang following him and Li Yunxi looking after him, he must be safe.The three carriages were traveling together, Fang Qichen was relieved that the young disciple would go far away.

And more than a month later, on Halloween in October, the birthday gift is a good time for the second disciple to get in touch with the younger disciple.Fang Qichen thought of Li Yunxi in the distance, with a smile on his face.

Jing Xingzhi became serious: "Thank you, teacher, my disciples will go. There's no shame in it. It's a gift to the Holy Majesty, and others can't go even if they squeeze their heads!"

Jing Xingzhi felt that Fang Qichen was his biggest golden finger, reaching directly to the sky.

Fang Qichen smiled: "I just met him and called him Master. After getting acquainted with him, he asked you to change his name to Senior Brother in private, so you should change it. He's not as fun as you, he's very boring."

Fang Qichen said that Li Yunxi was boring, but the expression on his face was full of warmth, which made Jing Xingzhi wonder what kind of person the Lord of the World was?

So Jing Xingzhi asked: "Teacher, what kind of person is Senior Brother?"

Fang Qichen took a look at Jing Xingzhi and corrected his wrong name: "It's the second senior brother."

Second Senior Brother...

Jing Xingzhi thought of Marshal Tianpeng, and his handsome face suddenly wrinkled.

But today the teacher is the most heroic, what you say is what you say.

Even if I only think of the second senior brother when I see the emperor in the future, there is no problem!

"Second senior brother, what kind of person is he?" Jing Xingzhi held back his smile, and he was kind.

Fang Qichen put down the pen in his hand, and stroked his beard, which was thicker than his hair: "He is a man, he likes to listen to nice words. But what he likes most in his heart is those who don't say nice words, he is a very sober emperor .”

Jing Xingzhi rubbed his nose and asked, "Second senior brother should still be awake now, right?"

When he was young, the emperor could restrain his desires for the great cause and ideals in his heart.But what if you restrain yourself for a long time, and you are suffocated? !It would be bad if the drive for restraint didn't overwhelm desire.

Fang Qichen glared at Jing Xing, and then slapped him with a casserole-sized hand: "Can you say this?"

"Hi! There are no outsiders." Jing Xingzhi said, looking at Wang Zhuang who was standing on the side with a smile in his eyes, "Brother Zhuang, do you think so?"

Wang Zhuang looked back, thought for a moment, and said firmly: "Yes."

The moment he looked at Jing Xingzhi, Wang Zhuang felt as if he had been seen through.

Asked if there are no outsiders?Wanting to come to Mr. Xiao Jing, he guessed where he came from.

Wang Zhuang is from the imperial palace, but now he belongs to Fang Qichen, he is definitely not an outsider, and he will not do anything to leak the news.

So Wang Zhuang looked at Jing Xingzhi without any guilt, and his tone after thinking clearly was also decisive and direct.

Jing Xingzhi felt relieved, the teacher would definitely give him Wang Zhuang to go out with, but Jing Xingzhi was not a real ancient, he had no reverence for the emperor, God knows what he might say in private in the future.

Only when Wang Zhuang expressed his attitude can Jing Xingzhi take him out with confidence.

Just a question, the two of them thought about it a few times.

Only Fang Qichen was very focused.He grabbed Jing Xingzhi's ear and told Pi Xiaozi to sit down obediently.

"You are so courageous, you don't know what you ate to grow so big, did you eat leopard gall by mistake when you were young?" Fang Qichen made a serious face.

Jing Xingzhi shook his head: "No, no. I'm just kidding."

Protect animals, dare not eat or touch them.One mouthful of leopard guts, two lines of tears for relatives.What's more, the number is scarce, and it is too late to protect.

"You, go outside and calm down. Endure the calm for a while..." Fang Qichen persuaded.

Jing Xingzhi said casually, "The more you think about it afterwards, the more angry you become?"

As a matter of fact, Jing Xingzhi got two books of rites, and asked to recite them within ten days, and Fang Qichen would conduct spot checks.

regret!

On the tenth day of Jing Xingzhi's endorsement, he felt regretful, very regretful.

Regret is not because the book is hard to memorize, although the book is really hard to memorize.

What Jing Xingzhi regretted was that this precious time spent with Xiao Fangfang was actually used to endorse a book!

Ten days later, after memorizing the book, it was the day to set off for the capital.

During these ten days, Wu Weirui brought the matchmaker to the door to propose marriage at a super fast speed.

The old man Fang Qichen didn't make things difficult, he just said that his daughter was too young and he wanted to stay for two years.

In the past two years, if Wu Mingrui could wait, it would be successful, but if he couldn't wait, it would not be successful.

Waiting for two years is not about marrying a wife two years later, taking concubines and making room at will, but just concentrating on studying like Wu Mingrui now, and not thinking about anything else.

Wu Weirui smiled and nodded on the spot.

——Don’t worry, in-laws, it’s a good time to study, what do you let your child do if you don’t let him study.Let him study and concentrate on studying!

At first, Fang Qichen thought that if the Wu family refused to wait, it would be a little troublesome.He still had to search for new candidates, which was a lot of trouble, and he was afraid that he would not be able to find the right one.

Children from wealthy families these days are not pampered.

Marry a girl from a high family, marry a woman from a low family?Anyway, what is suitable for Fang Qichen here is the best.

But for Wu Weirui, she felt that her son was overrated.

This boss Fang was once such a powerful person, but now even if he retires from his old age and returns home, he still has countless disciples.After agreeing to this marriage, the son's future will be a smooth and comfortable road paved by the old in-laws.

Besides, the little girl from Fang's family is well-educated, well-bred, and slick, Wu Weirui is very satisfied.

Life is life, the key is that the child catches up with each other.

******

At the end of September, the sun is still scorching the earth, but the temperature is much lower.

Jing Xingzhi finally hurried and arrived in the capital.

The road was particularly hard, not to mention, after all, he was someone who was taken care of.But outside, it's tiring to always go on the road. The carriage and the boat are interchanged, and Jing Xingzhi will soon be able to sail.As for the carriage, it didn't take much effort to learn it.

There are more heads on the pier in the capital city than in the pier in Huanshui County.

Jing Xingzhi got off the boat and felt a sense of happiness when he stepped on the ground

"It can be regarded as arriving." Jing Xingzhi said with emotion.

And Wang Zhuang looked at the somewhat familiar and unfamiliar ground, and smiled slightly: "Mr. Xiaojing, I feel comfortable after arriving. We are short on time and are a little rushed on the road, so I am a little tired."

Jing Xingzhi rubbed the center of his eyebrows: "Let's find a place to live first, the big guys work harder than me."

"My lord's yard should be tidied up, let's go straight there." Wang Zhuang frowned and scanned the crowd, but he didn't see the steward who came to pick him up, so he decided to take the people there by himself.

But this thing is strange, logically speaking, the old slave in charge should have got the news early in the morning, and is waiting here every day.

"Okay, let's go." Jing Xingzhi smiled, and the group left the crowded big pier.

Find a few carriages, and the luggage and people will go to the city in the carriage.

The coachman chatted enthusiastically with Jing Xingzhi: "Young master, where did you come from?"

"He's from Hanbei. Are you a local?" Jing Xingzhi replied, holding the Huatou in his hand.

The coachman was rather proud: "Yes, I grew up in the capital."

"That's amazing." Jing Xingzhi praised him and asked, "I'm from out of town, can you tell me what's going on in the capital recently?"

"Big event? That's because the Holy Majesty's Longevity Day is coming. I heard that the Holy Majesty likes jade this year, so this year's jade is selling like crazy!"

"Can everyone know the hobbies of the Holy One?" Jing Xingzhi felt strange, he wanted to know something, but he didn't expect that there were still merchants who could sell things based on the hobbies of this "senior brother emperor", it was really bold.

The coachman smiled: "You may not believe it, young master. This is very particular. I heard that the officials who give the right things are easy to get promoted!"

Wang Zhuang seemed to be amused by the coachman, and his raised brows loosened, with a smile on his face.

Jing Xingzhi also smiled when he thought of the ancient paintings that Fang Qichen was going to give away.Far away in a different place, I can't keep up with the fashion of the capital!

The carriage traveled quickly, stepping into the city, heading for the North City.

Li Yunxi's palace is in the middle of the entire capital city. Standing in the seven-story Qionglou Pagoda, one can see the entire capital city.

In addition to the imperial palace, the eastern city lived in relatives of the emperor, or nobles from all walks of life; the southern city was near the Imperial College and Taixue, and there were more students, Hanlin and some small officials also lived here; the northern city was mostly high-ranking civil servants, and the courtyards were mostly clean and elegant. ; West City is a prosperous business district, a lively and prosperous place.

When Fang Qichen was an official in the capital, Li Yunxi visited several courtyards, all of which were in Beicheng.

Because Jing Xingzhi wanted to come over, Fang Qichen wrote a letter early in the morning and ordered the steward here to clean up the courtyard where Fang Qichen used to live.

Jing Xingzhi sat in the big carriage, looked at the houses and only looked at the outer walls and lush green walls, and felt that the courtyard of this place was a good place.

"Woo--" sounded, and the carriage stopped outside the gate of a courtyard with a simple appearance.

I don't want to hear the sound of arguing in the courtyard before people got out of the carriage.

A middle-aged male voice said displeasedly: "My lord has a disciple coming over today, I'm going to pick him up, don't block the gate of the courtyard!"

"Steward Tang! It's clear that you promised my brother and failed to do so. Why can't I find you?!" A young male voice was a little anxious.

Jing Xingzhi raised his eyelids and looked at Wang Zhuang with amusement.

Wang Zhuang's face darkened, and he said, "I'll go down and have a look."

From the conversation between the two, it could be heard that Manager Tang agreed to the young brother's request, but failed to do so.That's why the young man came to look for him. It was also because of this that Manager Tang didn't go to the pier to pick him up in time.

Wang Zhuang went through the matter in his mind and got off the carriage.

There was an old knife hanging around his waist. Although his clothes had changed, he hadn't changed much from before he left, so he could be recognized at a glance.

When Manager Tang saw Wang Zhuang's figure, he immediately shook his body, hurriedly pushed the young man away, and trotted to Wang Zhuang with a smile: "Brother Zhuang, why are you here so early, I was just about to pick you up! Where is the young master? But in the carriage?"

"Let's settle your matter first." Wang Zhuang pulled him back with one hand, "Tell me, what does this person want from you? What did you promise him?"

Wang Zhuang scolded others with a black face, Jing Xingzhi secretly lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, sat in the carriage and looked outside.

Steward Tang felt guilty, and he looked at Wang Zhuang begging for mercy: "It's nothing, Brother Zhuang, it's just that I borrowed some money and didn't pay it back." He looked at the young man with his eyes, motioning him to leave.

In order to make the young man obedient, Tang Guanshi quietly made five gestures with his fingers to appease the young man.

The young man caught a glimpse of Steward Tang's hand gesture, and thought that this steward was also a slave of a big family, and he felt a little resignation in his heart.

But thinking of Tang Guanshi's evasion in recent days, he changed his mind and thought that it would be better to get back the money for buying jade now.

The young man in coarse clothes swallowed his saliva, and bravely said: "Guan Tang, you borrowed 700 taels from my brother, please pay me back quickly. If you pay me back the money, I will leave."

Wang Zhuang narrowed his eyes, looking at the nervous and guilty look of the young man.

Manager Tang only wanted to get the person away, and he was willing to pay extra.He happily took out his purse, and counted seven hundred taels of silver bills out of it.

As soon as the bank note was handed out, Wang Zhuang's hand grabbed Tang Guanshi's arm, and at the same time Jing Xingzhi's voice sounded.

——"Brother Zhuang, caught this house thief!"

"En." Wang Zhuang responded, and then saw Guanshi Tang's mournful face.

Steward Tang cried, "Brother Zhuang, my old Tang didn't steal anything! If you don't believe me, go to the warehouse ledger to see if there is anything missing?!"

"No need, come and search the place where he lives." Wang Zhuang shook off Steward Tang's hand, and someone immediately took over and grabbed him, and brought him into the courtyard.

After watching such a play, the carriage driver asked Jing Xingzhi curiously: "Young master, how do you know that it is a house thief?"

"It's not that jade is selling very well recently, I happen to have some at home." Jing Xingzhi smiled and got out of the carriage.

But Jing Xingzhi knew in his heart that before entering the door, he was attacked by the villain, it seems that there were many twists and turns in entering Beijing this time.

After entering the courtyard of Sanjin, Jing Xingzhi only chose a small courtyard and did not go to live in the main courtyard.

It's fine to live in the teacher's courtyard, there is no reason to directly occupy the old man's main courtyard, keeping the main courtyard is also a kind of respect.

Jing Xingzhi just arrived, but no one came to say hello, only two bowls of pea yellow were delivered from the next door, and he asked a few words about Fang Qichen.

Using pea yellow, Jing Xingzhi told Wang Zhuang: "Brother Zhuang, that steward should have taken away a lot of things. Looking back, not only look at the quantity, but also look at the quality!"

Jade is popular this year. I don’t know what was popular last year, but it changes every year. What is popular this year will not be worth the next year.

Jing Xingzhi thinks that the safer way is to sell everything that is popular this year, and buy it back when it becomes cheaper next year.Once you come and go, you can make a huge profit at a high price.

A status like Steward Tang's is nothing but profit.

Jing Xingzhi remembered that when he mentioned this, the people below found a lot of old things that were not of the same quality, and put the evidence and boards in front of Steward Tang, and the steward was so frightened that he explained everything in detail, just asking Die fast.

Tang Guanshi only started buying and selling things a few years ago. He was very careful at the beginning, and only dared to do a small part of the business that could buy things back.

But the courage grew bigger and bigger, there was no news of Fang Qichen's return, and rumors continued that he was seriously ill, Tang Guanshi gradually relaxed his mind, and happily made money.

Hearing that the boss accepted his disciples and won the Juren Award, Steward Tang thought to himself that this young master would definitely come and have a try. If he lived in the capital in the future, wouldn't he lose his chance to earn money!

For the sake of money, Tang Guanshi decided to do a big job in the last year of this year, and then wash his hands.

He didn't expect that the boss would actually send a young disciple to give gifts to the emperor.

Unexpectedly, Jing Xing and his party came in such a hurry, and he still left one or two final payments unsettled.

It's like the young man's elder brother, who wanted to spend money to buy a good piece of jade, but Manager Tang was crazy about selling things and forgot about his goods, so the young man came to ask for it.

Steward Tang blamed Fang Qichen for being too old to die in his heart, and it was just a gift. As for letting the disciple's parents and children come over? !

This delivery cost his life.

Tang Guanshi just had a small accident, Jing Xingzhi rested for a day, and received a call from the emperor's brother, asking him to go to the palace to sit.

The person who came to invite Jing Xingzhi was his old acquaintance Zhang Tong.

Zhang Tong is different from the past. He is the most favored eunuch among his eunuchs. He has been repeatedly rewarded by Li Yunxi, and he is a famous figure in and out of the palace.

However, Zhang Tong looked more low-key and restrained now than when he was in Huanshui. He smiled kindly, as if he was a good-tempered old man.

Ever since he saw Wang Dexi was crippled by a board, Zhang Tong has gradually become what he is now.

Jing Xingzhi looked at him, and remembered that Zhang Tong had given himself eye drops in front of the Li family's mother and son, and suddenly realized that the days had passed from early spring to late autumn in the blink of an eye.

The two had some old grievances, but it was just a verbal turmoil, and the methods Zhang Tong used at that time were also clever tricks, Jing Xingzhi didn't feel that the two had to attack each other.

Jing Xingzhi changed his clothes and smiled at Zhang Tong: "The students come from a small place, Master Wang Zhang will give you some pointers."

Zhang Tong smiled gently: "It's not a guide, but I'm here to guide Mr. Jing. The Holy Majesty has mentioned you a few times, and I've always wanted to see what you look like!"

"I wonder what the Holy One mentioned?" Jing Xingzhi asked.

Zhang Tong shook his head, not leaking water, and said with a smile: "I can't tell you this, you can ask the Holy One."

Jing Xingzhi: ...

If I dare to ask this, can I still ask you?

If you don't say it, don't say it, I will go back and ask Brother Zhuang.

Jing Xingzhi followed Zhang Tong, entered the palace, and then went around to the Kaiyang Hall where Li Yunxi was.

Under the setting sun, in the golden palace, the golden light is shining.

Jing Xingzhi stood in the hall, raised his head and secretly glanced at Li Yunxi who was still reviewing the memorial.

Li Yunxi didn't seem to notice, so Jing Xingzhi took a second look, imprinting the heroic Li Yunxi's face into his memory.In order not to turn around and meet people who don't know each other outside, it would be embarrassing for him to be an emperor.

Just as Jing Xingzhi took a look, and was about to lower his head, Li Yunxi pulled his head out of the memorial.

Li Yunxi smiled and asked: "I heard from the teacher that you have an excellent memory. I took a peek a few times, but can you remember what I look like?"

Jing Xingzhi paused, then nodded honestly: "I remember."

"Oh?" Li Yunxi put down his pen, smiling brighter, as if his whole body was warmed by the setting sun at this moment, he asked, "Then have you finished reading the poetry collection I gave you?"

Jing Xing, who was not good at poetry, was stunned for a moment, thinking about how to answer well.

After reading it, if he takes a test, he will only "one piece, two pieces, three pieces, four pieces, five pieces, six pieces, seven or eight pieces", which is so embarrassing.

If I haven't read it, I'm afraid this option will be taken away in a wave.

Jing Xingzhi nodded hesitantly: "It's over, but Xingzhi is very dull in poetry."

But Jing Xingzhi didn't expect Li Yunxi to be very satisfied with his answer.

Li Yunxi looked at him, and suddenly praised: "Not bad!"

Jing Xingzhi:? ? ?

Jing Xingzhi wanted to arrest Fang Qichen and ask, is the Holy Majesty really sober now?I can't keep up with his speed...

Li Yunxi saw the doubt in Jing Xingzhi's expression, and explained to him directly: "The teacher has said that your poems are not as good as your husband Lang. If you dare to admit that your poems are good, I will drive you out!"

Jing Xingzhi was suddenly worried: "What else did the teacher say?"

Li Yunxi waved his hand, and while motioning for Zhang Tong to move a seat, he replied happily: "That's a lot, I've eaten all the dishes of the Bitter Gourd Banquet, how much do you think I know?"

Jing Xingzhi: ...

In front of the silent Jing Xing, Fang Qichen's smiling face appeared.

He seems to have heard the old man asking - if it works, is it a surprise?Are you unhappy?

Fang Qichen!You bad old man, you are very bad!

Is it because winter is coming, and there are no more bitter melons growing in the ground, so are you drifting away?

What is a conservatory, do you know?When I go back, you will find out soon!
