old grace

Xie Qinghe went to the main hall to report to Shangguan Shiyi about the appointment of Shen Yu, and, taking advantage of Shen Yu's idea of ​​returning to Xiangzhou to manage agriculture, discussed the matter of setting up the capital of the new dynasty.Shangguan Shiyi's attitude is very clear, I have no objection, everything is up to you, follow the old rules.

After all, Fu Chuan was young, and had never experienced the time when the elder brother was in charge, so he was at a loss to hear it.

What was the rule before?

Xie Qinghe was arrested by Shangguan Shiyi to handle the document affairs, so Xie Qinghe arrested the younger brother to write as a ghostwriter, and the master and apprentice sat around drinking tea and chatting.

Fortunately, there were not many things these days, and they were dealt with in a timely manner. Fu Chuan quickly prepared the ticket and sent it to Xie Qinghe for review.

Since it was sent by the elder brother to handle affairs, Fu Chuan did it very carefully, and strictly followed the rules of the later generations of the cabinet to handle political affairs and submit them to the emperor for trial and decision. Works beautifully.

Xie Qinghe was very proud, and couldn't help showing it to Shangguan Shiyi to read it, and said: "Father made the verdict, and I will take notes from the sidelines."

Shangguan Shiyi was too lazy to work, but it was not unreasonable to understand the world. The elder apprentice proudly presented the treasure. He took it and glanced at it. He saw that the younger apprentice wrote neatly and clearly, with concise grammar, and well-defined sentences. He couldn't help but boast: "Turn around and learn your elder brother's calligraphy."

Fu Chuan was like a primary school student who was praised and praised by all the teachers, happily sitting by the desk and hehe.

Shangguan Shiyi took advantage of the afternoon sky to look through the bamboo slips, compared with what Fu Chuan had written, and drafted a statement, from which he chose a plan that he thought was suitable, drew a circle with a pen, and handed it to Xie Qinghe.Xie Qinghe spoke according to this plan and made instructions in Chen Qi's handwriting.

On the other hand, Fu Chuan helped sort out the bamboo slips, and occasionally studied ink for the master and senior brother, and tidied up the inkstone.

It was destined that Shangguan Shiyi would be completed earlier by Xie Qinghe. He handed over the last bamboo slips and circled notes to Xie Qinghe, and beckoned to Fu Chuan. Fu Chuan walked over obediently, and Shangguan Shiyi touched him He said: "Brother is working hard, you can help him with all your heart and relieve his worries, and I am very pleased for my father. In the future, we must support each other and live a good life."

When being a Shangguan, Yi usually had his eyes above the top, there were very few people in the world that he admired, and not all of his apprentices were friendly and praised.

Fu Chuan was unexpectedly invited by him to praise him, but he was not used to it, and nodded his head stammeringly: "Yes, brother...I obey."

Xie Qinghe finished writing the last word with a smile on his face, put down the pen, and said with a smile: "Father doesn't know, but on weekdays it is Brother Jun who takes care of the daily life, eats and serves the files. He is thoughtful and meticulous, so he has no worries."

Shangguan Shiyi knew that the big apprentice was showing affection, and he was very happy in his heart, and he had a bowl of water on his face: "The key to support is the word 'mutual', he is young, and the servant is respectful and diligent, and you should teach and cultivate more He's the one." He patted Fu Chuan's head again, "Just by looking at this handwriting, your elder brother gave you advice, right? It's brother and friend respectful."

Shangguan Shiyi had finished talking, what else could Fu Chuan say?I had no choice but to obediently smile and agree: "Yes, brother takes good care of me."

The two resigned from the main hall, Xie Qinghe took Fu Chuan's hand and asked, "Are you wronged?" Before Fu Chuan could speak, he hugged Fu Chuan in his arms, and put one hand on Fu Chuan's cheek, "Good boy!" .”

"No." Fu Chuan denied Xie Qinghe's guess, "I was wondering if I was too lazy before."

"Huh?" Xie Qinghe lowered his head to look at his face, why is the younger brother's thoughts always so tortuous?

Fu Chuan always has some unrealistic yearning and admiration for Xie Qinghe.

Xie Qinghe sat in the room peeling a peanut to eat, he would always think of whether the senior brother discovered a new world in the peanut.

So much so that when Xie Qinghe copied the scriptures and commentaries on weekdays, Fu Chuan didn't dare to talk too much at all, he felt that he was not capable of mixing with the "great achievements" of the elder brother.

Xie Qinghe wouldn't spare his junior brother either, whenever he arranged errands for Fu Chuan, Fu Chuan would try his best to achieve perfection, for fear of disappointing senior brother, looking down on him, and doubting his ability and ability. training.However, Xie Qinghe didn't know Fu Chuan's uneasiness, and the compliment he gave casually was not very "sincere", and his tone was more like an intimate way to make his little lover happy.

Today, Fu Chuan is just following the usual principles of doing things. When working for a senior brother, he must be meticulous and thoughtful without any deviation.

It happened that Shangguan Shiyi was there, and Xie Qinghe wanted to show off to his master, so Fu Chuan found out that the elder brother was very satisfied with my clerical work, so satisfied that he even wanted to show off to his master.

When Shangguan Shiyi touched Fu Chuan's head and told him to "help and help" the elder brother, Fu Chuan was very ashamed.

"When my father took my hand and told me, I thought, apart from serving tea and tidying up my elder brother's clothes, I really haven't really 'helped' my elder brother in serious matters." Fu Chuan considered It's not a matter of master favoring senior brother at all.

Xie Qinghe rubbed his fingers against his cheek for a moment, facing such an obedient little junior, he didn't know what to say for a while.

Fu Chuan had already raised his head and asked him: "I just found out today that elder brother likes me to serve as secretary. I will accompany elder brother to do more... I know that elder brother's homework is profound and rigorous. If there is something I don't understand, or I am not careful enough , and please teach me, brother, I will try my best to learn well. Only after teaching me, brother can also have one more helper, okay?"

The two have been in love for many years, and Fu Chuan has become much more relaxed in their daily relationship. However, when referring to Xie Qinghe's "homework", he still cautiously begged Xie Qinghe to ask his elder brother to allow him to "help".

It can be seen that Xie Qinghe's position in his heart is as high as the mountain.

"Okay." This is the only answer Xie Qinghe can give, "You are so devout and diligent, you can always help."

In Xie Qinghe's "homework", it is useless to praise talent and intelligence, only patience and diligence can really help.

Xie Qinghe never felt that his younger brother lacked these two qualities, Fu Chuan always had a lot of time to accompany him, but in terms of martial arts, practice, and documents, he never left behind all kinds of homework, and often made Xie Qinghe feel surprised by the rapid progress. It is absolutely impossible to be a result of "playing" every day.

While speaking, the two had already returned to the side hall.

The living room, which had been messed up earlier, had been cleaned up, and the maid came to deliver the food and stove, and then left again.

Fu Chuan sat cross-legged on the couch, and couldn't help asking: "Father said, follow the old rules, what kind of rules are they?"

Xie Qinghe couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, and explained: "It's the rule to cut first and then play, falsely preaching the imperial decree."

"To put it simply, I will do the work, and the old man will take the blame."

"At that time, I was young, and my words didn't work. I walked around the rivers and lakes and pulled tiger skins as a banner. Anyway, no matter what stupid things I said outside, when people asked him about the old man, he would admit it—yes, my apprentice said. I said it, that's what I said, and I really said it."

"People ask, how can it be said that it is three thousand two hundred miles away?"

"The old man said, don't you know there are flying kites in my house? I flew back and forth in the middle of the night, can I just invite you?"

Xie Qinghe couldn't help but laugh when he talked about the past.

Shangguan Shiyi has dominated the Jianghu for more than a hundred years as the leader of the Bai Dao. Those who are familiar with his style of work will know that he has always abided by the sect's rules of not being born.Xie Qinghe was young and energetic when he first came out of the rivers and lakes, and he cultivated the ways of the world. He behaved completely differently from when he was an official.

When the two sets of rules collided and rubbed against each other, some martial arts families and powerful families in Jianghu suffered at the hands of Xie Qinghe.

I couldn't beat it again and again, and I couldn't swallow my breath.Why can't I do things that I could do before?You Hanjiang Sword Sect didn't care about things before, why did you suddenly come here to stretch your hands and feet?Young people, don't talk about Wude!

then what should we do?

Go to Hanshan, find the old master Shangguan Shiyi, cry and sue.

It's a pity that none of this wave of people could step into the mountain gate, and they were turned back by Shangguan Shiyi with a few words.

Fu Chuan was amazed and amused when he heard it. The master in his impression was like an idol on the altar, unmoved by the wind and completely decent. He really couldn't imagine the past when the master cheated with the elder brother, so he couldn't help but torment Xie Qinghe and say more: "Brother, can you tell me the details?"

Looking back at the past, Xie Qinghe shook his head regretfully: "The years are far away, I can't remember clearly."

He has spent too long years in the enchanted world, and those memories have been deposited in the deepest place. If there is no fulcrum to remind him, he will only be at a loss when he recalls it by himself.

Fu Chuan didn't insist on asking, he pressed the chessboard with his left hand and Xie Qinghe's book case with his right hand: "Which one?"

"The pages taken out of the agricultural book have not been bound yet, so I'd like to trouble you to sort them out, and take thick paper to bind them up." Xie Qinghe added water and ink to the stone inkstone, and flattened the cut paper, "I'm giving it to Chang Chao and Yang Xi each wrote a summary of all the things about smelting agricultural tools, and then played chess after writing."

"Okay." Fu Chuan opened the bookcase, and when he was arranging the pages of the book, he looked up at Xie Qinghe from time to time.

Xie Qinghe lowered his head to write without raising his head, and asked, "What are you looking around for?"

"I didn't look around, I looked in the same direction." Fu Chuan just sorted out the pages of the book without using his pen and ink, and he didn't have to concentrate on it. "The feeling of sharing a desk with my elder brother...is very good."

"Go back and add a chair for you." Xie Qinghe said.

Only then did Fu Chuan realize that what he was talking about was adding a chair to the study room of the observatory. After thinking for a while, he said, "It would be nice to put a chess table on the window bed by the cliff, and watch the clouds play chess in the wind." .”

Xie Qinghe likes to sit there and copy scriptures, Fu Chuan wanted to copy his old nest and put it on the chess table, Xie Qinghe didn't even protest.

"Okay." Xie Qinghe replied.

Fu Chuan said: "Brother, I moved to the study to copy the scriptures."

How could Xie Qinghe not understand his small thoughts on the surface, one desk and two chairs, the younger brother applied to join.

Xie Qinghe lowered his head and smiled: "Okay."
