The husband's son-in-law

"Chu Ningyuan."

Shi Mingwen frowned, hesitant to say what he wanted to say, and finally said, "With his knowledge, he is naturally qualified to be a teacher, but he is too close to—"

"Come on, it's not something you, a minor organ of the fifth rank, got involved with." Sun Mu poured tea, "Let's drink tea."

Shi Mingwen took the tea, didn't drink it, but sighed and said, "I'm not as chic as you. If I say resign, I will resign, and if I say Yunyou to give lectures, I will go to Yunyou. Alas, it's fine if someone else does it. It's a pity to be strict and trustworthy." It’s a little bit more, I came from a poor family, and I have a talent for aura, and I’m upright, I can’t bear him to get involved in it, and bury my future, if the Holy One is willing...it’s okay.”

Following Chu Ningyuan also has the merit of being a dragon.

Sun Mu knew that a good friend had such a temperament, looking serious and not approachable, in fact, he didn't even want to give ordinary mediocre people a look, but if he was a knowledgeable person, he would cherish his talent and couldn't bear it. If you are buried, you will have more words.

"Chu Ningyuan has the idea of ​​accepting apprentices, maybe you don't want to be strict with what you said."

The tea in Shi Mingwen's hand was cold, so he simply put it on the table and stopped drinking, saying: "Scholar from poor families in this world, who doesn't want to be Chu Ningyuan's apprentice? If it were Du Ruoqi, I wouldn't worry about it. Yan Jinxin is new here, I don’t know how deep the water in Beijing is, and the bottom is even more complicated——Old Sun, why don’t you accept it.”

"You, you, you came to coax me to accept my apprentice again." Sun Mu smiled, but never said this, but said: "Everyone has his own fortune, maybe Yan Jingxin has caught up with Chu. Ningyuan's boat is a sky-reaching boat, if you try to dissuade him here, you are blocking his great fortune."

"After all, he occupies the son..."

What about the son-in-law?If it is the son of the Empress Yuan, then he is the orthodox eldest son, but it is difficult to say who is the current one.Shi Mingwen knew that his old friend was determined not to intervene. In fact, no matter whether it was good or bad, once it got involved, the situation would not be able to be controlled by a small modification without a backing.

Now that Chaozhong Boyun is treacherous, you can tell just by watching the second prince thanking guests behind closed doors.

It was getting late, and Sun Mu got up to say goodbye, but Shi Mingwen didn't ask him to stay, and saw him off all the way, asking, "How many days will you stay in Beijing? When will you leave?"

"The weather is slightly warmer this year."

That means there is still a while, Shi Mingwen nodded, and sent Sun Mu to the car.Seeing that it was getting late, he didn't stay in the front yard to read, but went to the back yard and asked, "Where's Madam?"

"Master, Madam read the post in the morning, and now I am waiting for you to have dinner in the side hall." The servant replied.

Knowing that Master and everyone Sun are drinking tea, Madam specifically told them not to disturb and waited for Master.

Shi Mingwen walked to the side hall of the main house, and the meals were all set up.Shi Mingwen drank tea all morning, his stomach was full and he wasn't too hungry, but he still sat down to eat with his wife and only took a few mouthfuls of food.

Quietly finished the meal.

The couple moved to the main hall to talk, and the maids served hot tea again.Mrs. Shi first said: "There are three greeting cards this morning, all sent by the adults of the Imperial Academy..."

He said all kinds of gifts.

"One is a box of ducks. I opened it and looked at it. At first I thought it was a box of snacks."

"Duck?" Shi Mingwen was surprised.

In the past, the husband and wife were gossips, and it was Mrs. Shi who said, and Shi Mingwen just listened when he didn't reply. After sitting for a while, Shi Mingwen went to the study to read. , so that the master can stay for a while longer.

"Isn't it? There is also a duck poem on the box."

"Let me see, where is it?"

The mother-in-law next to Mrs. Shi went to get it and handed it to Mrs. Shi.Mrs. Shi handed it over to the master, and Shi Mingwen read: "Duck, duck, the Li family has whole ducks, each with different flavors, once you taste it, it's absolutely delicious."

Shi Mingwen was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "It's a bit wild."

It's not a serious poem.

"Read for fun." Mrs. Shi said.

This is true, Shi Mingwen smiled and asked: "How about I try this excellent duck?"

The woman took the box and went down, picked out a mouthful of each, put it in a small white porcelain bowl and handed it to the master with chopsticks attached.Shi Mingwen took a look, the color was red and bright, and he put a piece of it into his mouth, and it tasted strong, not bad.

Try the next one.

Mrs. Shi watched the master use a small bowl, and saw that the master's expression was not satisfied, so she said: "The master just ate and didn't use much, why don't you add some food and eat some more with this duck?"

"can."

Fang Liuyi ran to three houses in the morning, first he was sent off by Mrs. Shi, then Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Tian, ​​and Mrs. Liang was the last one, because Mrs. Liang's home was very far away from Li's.There was no rest at noon, after the delivery was over, it was already evening when I returned to Li's house.

Zhao and Tian's family accepted the New Year's gift, and the young servant sent it directly to the back.It happened to be lunch time, the wives of the two families saw that it was a box of ducks, so they packed it up and made it into a dish, which happened to be served on the table.

Once you taste it with chopsticks, you can't stop, it's just like what's written on the box, absolutely absolutely.

The Liang family also received it, but they received it later.

"Run back with what are you carrying?" Liang Zizhi called the porter to stop him.

The servant held the food box and replied, "Master, it was said that it was a New Year's gift from Mr. Gu of the Imperial Academy."

"Gu Zhao's?" Liang Zizhi said to himself first, and said to the boy: "Bring it here and let me have a look, it looks like a box for eating, what kind of snack?"

The little fellow happily said: "Master, you have really good eyesight, you can see the food that you are holding in your hands from a long distance."

If there are any gold, jade and antique calligraphy and paintings nearby, the master will not pay attention to them, but the food is the only one that is sure to catch one.

Liang Zizhi didn't play with the boy, but when he saw the poem on the food box, he laughed aloud, opened it, and there was a note, by the words, he knew it was written by Gu Zhao, not behind his back, it was Gu Tanhua's The writing is a bit stinky, if it is put under the hands of his teacher, then the teacher will be very angry.

"Skin jelly, don't heat the cold sauce. Stewed duck: Duck wings and duck neck are eaten cold, duck mixed with noodles..."

After Liang Zizhi finished cleaning, no matter if it was an hour before lunch, he immediately ordered his servants to pack up a portion early, and he wanted to taste what this stewed duck and skin jelly taste like, "...don't finish it, Keep a copy first, if it tastes good, I will send it to the master."

"Yes."

The cook of the Liang’s Stove House knew that his master was short-tempered when it came to eating. If he got a taste for something new, he had to taste it early. If it was delicious, he would drink and eat it to his heart’s content. The 'name doesn't match the reality', and he has to get drunk.

In short, whether it tastes good or not, you have to drink and drink to your heart's content.

The cook didn't understand these things, so he quickly packed them up. The salad that should be cold, the noodles that should be served with noodles, and the cold ones that should be eaten directly, put them on a plate and send them over.

The young man in the front yard was warming the wine for the master, and the food was served on the table, and the master was invited to sit down.

Liang Zizhi didn't move his chopsticks, he drank a cup first, then he drank a little harder, waved his hands to tell the waiters to go down, these servants knew that the master was used to it, although they were worried about the master's health, no one dared to speak up, let the rules go Closed the door.

Inside, Liang Zizhi drank two more cups in a row, then picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, picked them back and forth, put them on the frozen pigskin, and put them into his mouth without changing his complexion, then he was startled, and the chopsticks hit the duck again , to the duck offal in the noodle soup...

After trying them one by one, I was so happy that I even forgot to drink the wine for a while.

After unknowingly eating a table of food, Liang Zizhi felt his stomach warm and comfortable, because he only drank the first three cups and forgot to drink while eating. He looked at the empty noodle bowl and laughed twice.

The boy guarding outside knew that the master was drunk and came again.

Today should eat happily.

"If you are still here, you should be happy and like this." Liang Zizhi muttered to himself, then called the boy in, and said: "Pack up the remaining half of this one today, pack the car, and I will go to the teacher's house."

The boy said: "My lord, it's getting dark soon. You've just had your meal and then your wine. You'll feel uncomfortable after tossing around like this."

"Go as long as I tell you, don't worry about it." Liang Zizhi didn't drink any alcohol today, and the amount of those three cups was the same as if he didn't drink.

The boy didn't dare to say any more, so he went to pack up the car and send the master away.

It's so late, the master probably won't come back today, and will rest at Mrs. Sun's place.

Sun's house is far away, and the place to live is farther away, and it takes an hour to drive the carriage.When Liang Zizhi arrived, it was snowing outside again. The old servant who guarded the door heard the movement and came to open the door. When he saw that Zizhi was carrying a box, he couldn't help exclaiming: "Why is Zizhi here so late? Mr. Just after taking a rest, I'll go to clean up the house, you sleep here tonight, and we'll talk about tomorrow if you have anything to do."

"Please trouble Uncle Sun." Liang Zizhi thanked Uncle Sun.

"Go in quickly, the snow is getting heavier and heavier, don't get cold." Uncle Sun felt distressed, and while letting the young man lead the horse to the back, he arranged hot water to wash, and asked Zizhi if he had eaten.

"I came here after eating it. I got a good taste. I brought it for the teacher to taste."

Uncle Sun smiled kindly and said yes, he took the things and said he put them away. When the master gets up tomorrow, you two, master and apprentice, will use them together. He turned his back and sighed, Zizhi was still thinking...

It's been so many years, my husband is already healed, but Zizhi is still there.

That's it.

Liang Zizhi was lying on the bed. This room was formerly Ming Yuan's. More than ten years had passed, and things hadn't been replaced. He knew in his heart that everyone said that the teacher would have recovered, but if it had recovered, why would Ming Yuan die every year? I have to go back to Beijing on the festival day, why the scene in the yard is as usual.

The teacher didn't let go, and neither did he.

Ming Yuan is Liang Zizhi's younger brother and Sun Mu's youngest son, who got a brother in middle age.

The Sun family is a well-known family in Chuzhou. They are famous writers and Confucians. Sun Mu is very knowledgeable. He started the imperial examination on the [-]th and [-]th. He was only in his early twenties when he won the first prize of the Sanyuan University of China. It is not an exaggeration to praise a young genius characters.

Unlike the Sun's children who abide by the rules and don't dare to lose the face of the family, Sun Mu has a bold and unrestrained personality, informal, free and easy, good talent, has a vivid memory for reading articles, and has a very literati temperament.Emperor Kang Jing, who was still young and victorious, admired it very much. When Sun Mu entered the Imperial Academy, he often Xuan entered the palace to accompany him.

Sun Mu even had the courage to criticize a few lines of the poems written by the Holy Majesty.

Emperor Kang Jing was not only not angry, but even very happy, saying that Sun Aiqing would tell the truth if he was loyal to me.

At that time, the Sun family in Chuzhou was very popular, and there were many flowers in the house. When the festival came, all the literati and rich guests in the capital rushed to invite Sun Mu to enjoy the flowers, write poems and drink.

Later, Sun Mu joined the cabinet and served as an official for several years. He didn't like official fights, so he resigned with the emperor.Emperor Kang Jing regretted his talent and refused, so he transferred Sun Mu to teach in the Imperial Academy.Not two years later, Sun Muyou, who was 35 years old, had a son named Mingyuan.

Sun Mu loves this son very much, and taught him personally. This Mingyuan has Sun Mu's talent, and he also has the ability of photographic memory. He can compose poems at the age of six and write Fu at the age of seven.

But there is another talent, and he is a brother.

Liang Zizhi entered the Imperial College to study at the age of eight. He was favored by the teacher and accepted as an apprentice. He wrote articles and studied with his junior brother Ming Yuan for ten years. It can be said that he grew up with his childhood sweetheart.

He has a younger brother in his heart, but he knows that his younger brother is more talented than him, and he would not be willing to marry into the back house and be a wife for display, so he never dared to mention it, it would be an insult to his younger brother.

As a result, at the end of the year when he was in Tanhua, his younger brother Ming Yuan jumped into the lake and died on a snowy day.

Kong has a lot of abilities, but he can't use them.

Liang Zizhi knew that the teacher blamed himself and regretted that he should not have taught Ming Yuan to read and write, and should not have allowed Ming Yuan to see those worlds. If Ming Yuan knew nothing, was ignorant and unenlightened, he would not suffer.

Obviously they grew up together, he is not as good as his junior brother in every way, but he entered the temple, got the favor of the sage, and can display his ambitions, so the junior brother can only watch like this, how can it not be painful.

Liang Zizhi regrets, regrets all his knowledge, regrets not being able to spend more time with his younger brother.

If possible, he would rather not have this knowledge, not to be an official, not to take the imperial examination.

But everything is too late.

Liang Zizhi sighed, wrapped himself in a quilt and fell asleep, but when he closed his eyes, he still had a smile on his senior brother's face, saying that senior brother, you should try this delicious food, is it possible that senior brother is afraid?What's so scary about this bug, it tastes very crispy when you taste it, and the burnt shell is crispy...

The younger brother is bold, curious, and delicious, and dares to try everything.

Early the next morning.

Sun Mu played a set of Wu Qinxi at the back of the courtyard before returning to the main room. The two teachers and apprentices happened to meet. Liang Zizhi was different from the coldness he had in the Imperial Academy. I want to find a teacher, I got a colleague to eat yesterday, the teacher must try it."

"Old Sun told me that our father and I will cook a pot of wine and eat this at noon."

"It's done."

Sun Mu brought an old servant with him when he came to Beijing. His wife was in Chuzhou, her hometown. She hadn't been to Beijing for more than ten years. This was sad and she didn't want to see her again.

The master and the apprentice were talking, and as soon as Sun Mu talked about the knowledge of the school, Liang Zizhi interrupted him, and Sun Mu said: "You have all the skills, if you continue like this, it will be useless."

"I'm fine now. It's very leisurely to do fuss in the Imperial Academy. Teacher, you also know that I'm reckless. I'm really in the top. I easily offend people, and I don't like the fights in the officialdom." Liang Zizhi said with a smile.He is so old, he will be abandoned if he is abandoned.

Sun Mu knew that Zizhi still remembered Mingyuan, both of them.Back then when Zizhi was living in ruins in Hanlin, outsiders said: Even if it was for Mingyuan, Mingyuan failed to do what he wanted to do, you are still here now, you should climb up and display your ambitions for Mingyuan.

It's easy to say, but once it's done, he only thinks about Ming Yuan's death.

Just like Sun Mu who later resigned from office and said nothing about re-entering the official career.After a long time, the idle clouds and the wild cranes, giving lectures everywhere, it seems to outsiders that their abilities have been wasted until now.

These words will not be mentioned.

After lunch, Liang Zizhi asked the teacher to taste it first.If it is said that he has been playing with Ming Yuan for a long time and intentionally adhered to this delicious habit, then the teacher is naturally delicious.

After Sun Mu tasted it, he immediately nodded and said with a smile, "Good!"

"This is the first time I have tasted it."

"Me too." Liang Zizhi started talking, and said to the teacher, "Teacher, try this skin jelly and guess what it's made of."

Sun Mu picked up the chopsticks, put them in his mouth, chewed slowly, his eyes lit up, and after he finished swallowing, he said, "It's strong, but it's not the same as eating strong like before. When you flick your teeth, there is a piece of meat in it." Stuff, taste—”

"It's pigskin." Liang Zizhi said.

Sun Mu was surprised, "It's actually pigskin, it doesn't have any fatty or fishy smell."

"This is made by my colleague Gu Zhao's family. The duck said it was marinated, and so is this skin jelly. It's all passed down by his husband." Liang Zizhi said: "I asked him in a chat a few years ago, but I didn't expect During the Chinese New Year, he still remembered that he gave me a New Year gift, but there were too few things.”

Sun Mu heard from a friend, "Gu Zhao? Last year's Tanhua, he was praised by the Holy Spirit and rewarded with money."

"It's this man. He looks handsome, and his knowledge is much worse than mine." Liang Zizhi said truthfully, "His handwriting is also stinky, but he is a real man. Years ago, the eighth prince came to edit the book, and he followed the editor rigorously. It is said that the books will be consolidated, and those that overlap a lot will be combined into one book, so that poor scholars can buy books and study."

When Sun Mu heard this, he nodded.He was born in a famous family, and in his studies, he only wrote articles for academic competitions, and never cared about his livelihood.Later, I traveled around and saw a lot. The scholars of those poor farmers were afraid of wasting pen and ink, so they practiced on the soil with branches.

The books published by some fame-seekers, and then some people copied them from other places and copied them into another book. This kind of example happened more and more often as it went down, bullying those poor and uneducated scholars and defrauding them of money.

"This son has a bit of a childlike heart, and he still cares about scholars who come from the same background as him."

"That's right, so he asked me about my knowledge, so I replied." Liang Zizhi actually has the problem of being a scholar who has no eyesight. Although he has been sitting in his seat for more than ten years, he still has a bit of arrogance in his bones. Liang Zizhi doesn't like to deal with colleagues who are not used to him, such as Mr. Zhao who loves to be sour.

The master and the apprentice chatted while eating, and they were used to it casually.

"This little Gu has just arrived in the courtyard, and he arrives every day at the time of Chen. He didn't know about it a few days ago. Who knows that it's the Chinese New Year. It's still the same. I'll see how long he can last."

Sun Mu glanced at Tu'er, and said, "You still want to place a bet because you still watch people's excitement? I heard Mr. Shi say that you go later than him all day—"

"The teacher misunderstood. It was raining that day, and the road was difficult to walk. My carriage got stuck, so I was delayed for a while. Besides, Mr. Shi didn't arrive until noon that day. I was only a moment behind him." Liang Zizhi smiled. He interrupted and said, "Let's talk about Xiao Gu. He is a family member of Li's family. He is so diligent during the day, and he still feeds his little brother when he returns home from work."

Sun Mu knew about his apprentice's tricks, but he still got off topic, "He still feeds the children?"

"Yeah, once black eyes came over, and I said that I changed a new bed for my little brother, and the child didn't get used to it, and made a fuss for a long time, and he cried as soon as he put it down, and he was fine as soon as he hugged him. I didn't know this little brother He's still sleeping in his room."

Liang Zizhi was really surprised.

His family is also well-known in Chuzhou. As long as he can remember, he slept with the nanny. He slept on the bed, and the nanny and mother waited on the couch underneath. of.

It's not surprising that there are no rules like this.Liang Zizhi didn't look down on Gu Zhao, and even felt that the little brother of the Li family was well taken care of like this, but sometimes he thought of his junior brother.

When the younger brother was there, although the teacher was not as good as Gu Zhao to take care of everything personally, he also put in effort and loved him very much.

Sun Mu was dazed when he heard this, and also remembered that when Ming Yuan was a child, he would cry when he was startled at night, and the nanny could not coddle him no matter what, Ming Yuan cried so loudly that he couldn't sleep, so he put on his clothes and went to see him. When he came to him, Ming Yuan stopped crying.

Ming Yuan kissed his father and made portraits of him everywhere.

But it was him, it was he who killed Ming Yuan.

"...You posted the post and invited him to come to my place, just say that you appreciate plum blossoms, drink wine and compose poems."

"Teacher?" Liang Zizhi still pretended not to understand.

Sun Mu glanced at this kid, and said, "Eating is good, but you never leave Gu Zhao in every sentence, and you pick up what I like to hear, isn't that the purpose. You are the same as Shi Mingwen. I accept apprentices, and you also want me to accept apprentices, to comfort my heart."

"Master Shi also asked you to take in an apprentice? Who? Xiao Gu?" Liang Zizhi did not deny that the master was getting old, and because of Ming Yuan's death, the wife and the master separated, and now the wife is closed in Chuzhou. He has been a vegetarian and worshiped the Buddha all year round, but his master has been wandering outside without a place to live. Liang Zizhi actually felt pain in his heart when he saw him.

"Strict letter."

Liang Zizhi heard this, and murmured, "This Zhuangyuan Lang is very knowledgeable, even better than me, but his temperament is exactly the same as that of Mr. Shi. If you accept it, Master, he is well-behaved and designated as the recipient." No."

Sun Mu wanted to tighten the skin on this apprentice, so he said: "Then I will invite this strict letter together, and I will make another invitation to invite Mr. Shi to come to the house to be a judge. Let's have fun."

"..." Liang Zizhi.How can this be fun?

But still complied with the rules, go to the next post.

Two days later, a young servant knocked on the door of Li's house to bring back a gift. A box of pastries from Mr. Shi's house, with a pair of words, was written by Mr. Shi himself. It can be seen that the gift is very satisfactory.Master Zhao's carved dwarf pine ink ingot, the ink is the best ink ingot.

It's a pity that there is no Taobao now, otherwise Gu Zhao will know how much it is with a scan - it's not that he is a philistine, but he has to write it down. If the gift returned is more expensive than the one sent, he will have to make up for it later.

Gu Zhao made a note, planning to go to the shop to ask questions in the new year, you can't just ask other colleagues in the office, right?When this word got out, I thought he had something to do with Mr. Zhao, or he didn't like Mr. Zhao's gift in return.

I asked later, this ink ingot is good ink, and even if the carving is not done by a famous artist, it costs six or seven taels of silver.

The return gift from Mrs. Tian is also edible, which is sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice and lotus root and a can of lotus root powder.With the current weather, lotus root is produced in the south, or it should be sold in Beijing, but the output is scarce.This gift was still very rare and not particularly outstanding, and it was a tie with the stewed duck sent by Gu Zhao.

Gu Zhao didn't need to rack his brains to subsidize the return.

Li Zhouzhou remembers the ink ingots on the side. In the 57th year of Kangjing, he received a piece of ink ingots from Mr. Zhao’s family in Hanlin as a gift.

The husband and wife counted the gifts, and Mother Lan came in, holding a post in her hand, and said: "Master and Madam, it was delivered earlier, and it is said to be from Mr. Sun's family."

Mr. Sun?

Gu Zhao was taken aback when he heard that, his family had never given Mr. Sun a gift, and he didn't know Mr. Sun when he came to Beijing, so he thought to himself, took the post, opened it, and said, "It's nothing. Big deal, this Mr. Sun is Mr. Liang's teacher."

The post was written simply, Gu Zhao read it and handed it to Zhou Zhou for him to read.

"It's Mr. Liang who gave an extra piece of skin jelly?" Li Zhouzhou remembered, because his husband and father both loved this, and seeing that they made two big pots, he gave a lot to Yan's family first, and kept some for himself. Except Mr. Liang, other adults don't have this.

Because not enough.

"Yes."

After Li Zhouzhou read the post, two days after he invited his husband, it will be the [-]th day.

"We still have some stewed ducks at home, and we will pack two more boxes at that time. Fortunately, we bought a lot of boxes at that time, but will it be lighter to take this one? Or should we use other ones?"

Gu Zhao patted Zhou Zhou's hand and said, "Look at the gifts received today, including a precious ink ingot, which shows that Mr. Shi and several colleagues like to eat it. They think our braised duck tastes good, so they returned the gift. So delicate, so just take the duck and nothing else."

"I went early that day and came back before dark. Our family can go to the street to watch lanterns."

Li Zhouzhou laughed, "It's important to be serious. It's okay if you don't watch the lanterns if it's late. It's cold, and Dad is afraid that he will catch the cold while taking Fubao out."

"That's why I don't bring Fubao." Gu Zhao said confidently, and the green tea was sold poorly, and said: "Zhou Zhou, you have already agreed with me. This is the first time we have come to Beijing for the New Year, and we haven't seen any lanterns yet. You He said he would watch the lanterns with me."

Li Zhouzhou has always been helpless with such a husband, so he could only soften his heart and agree.

In the afternoon, Yan Jingxin came over, holding two posts in his hand and handing them to Gu Zhao.

Gu Zhao took a look, this one was an invitation post, skipped the polite words, grabbed the main information, and invited his second brother to come to the house on the [-]th to talk, and when he saw the signature, he couldn't help but frowned and frowned. stand up.

Chu Ningyuan.

In fact, I guessed it when I saw the Chu Mansion just before it was opened.

Gu Zhao glanced at the second brother. The second brother's face was as usual, and he didn't look particularly ecstatic, so he pressed back the words first, read the second letter, looked at the name, raised his eyebrows, and handed his own passed.

Yan Jinxin took a look at the word "Sun Fu" above it, and then looked at Gu Zhao.Gu Zhao nodded, "I received it in the morning. I guess it's the front and back. I'm invited to dinner on the [-]th."

"...It's about enjoying flowers and making poems."

Gu Zhao: "Second brother, feel your conscience and ask me if viewing flowers and composing poems is suitable for me? Didn't I used to enjoy viewing flowers and feasting?"

Forget about his out-of-the-box poetry.Dining suits him.

Yan Jinxin really can't brag about Brother Zhao's poems without conscience, so he can only change the subject and say: "This Mr. Sun invited me to visit the mansion, but the name of the message is Liang Ze from your yard."

Liang Ze is the name of Liang Zizhi, and Zizhi is the word given to him by his teacher.

"I've only met him a few times, and it's not even considered friendship." Yan Jinxin frowned, "Why did he invite me to the mansion, and, is this Mr. Sun an early Crane Immortal?"

When "Crane Immortal Poetry Collection" was first used in government schools in prefectures and counties, almost everyone had a copy, and it was widely circulated and respected.Gu Zhao and Yan Jingxin each have a copy, but they are both copies of Zheng Hui's genuine copy, and they are handwritten copies.

Why do you say that in the early days, the Crane Immortal hadn't written a poem for more than ten years.

"If it's not a coincidence that the name is the same, there is a high probability it will be." Gu Zhao thinks it is.Nowadays, there are few scholars, and those who can become everyone are even rarer. They also publish poetry collections, which is the scarcity of scarcity.

What Zheng Hui bought was a genuine collection of poems, and it is impossible for the author to introduce a typographical error in that column.

"I heard before that our Master Shi and Master Liang Zizhi are close friends. If we can make friends with Master Shi, we can make friends with literati and scholars, and teach Tan Hualang who became famous at a young age like Master Liang. His knowledge should not be bad."

After Gu Zhao finished speaking, he became serious, "Now the time to go to Sun's Mansion and Master Chu's is the same. If you go to Sun's Mansion, you can't go to Master Chu's. What do you think, second brother?"

"Master Chu's post was delivered first." Yan Jinxin said with some hesitation, "To be honest, I never thought that Master Chu would invite me over."

Gu Zhao can think about it, the second brother was the first in last year's class, and he is also a figure of three yuan in Lianzhong. Du Ruoqi is definitely not willing, because there are forces behind the Du family.

In their current class, he and the second brother were the only ones from the disadvantaged families. If they chose one, they would naturally choose the one with strong ability.

"Second brother, let me tell the truth." Gu Zhao thought it might be just a year or two?He couldn't remember clearly, and the memory of the original body was also vague, and he was in the same place, and he heard it from hearsay, so he didn't remember the exact time when it happened, but by calculation, it was about a year or two.

The crime of ransacking the home and beheading of Mr. Chu, the idol of a poor scholar in the whole world.

Now a senior member of the imperial court who worships the second rank is wooing and befriending the second elder brother. No matter how you look at it, it is a huge pie, inedible and poisonous.

Gu Zhao said: "Second brother, Master Chu's door is not easy to enter. Even if you enter, I'm afraid there will be other plans later. We are now in Hanlin.
