Feudal scholar-bureaucrats reborn: marrying a husband and marrying a virtuous

In the middle of the banquet, a young servant hurried forward, walked up to Mr. Tixue, whispered a few words, only to see Mr. Tixue showed a look of shock, got up and went out of the boat.

Everyone looked up and down curiously, and after a while, they saw Mr. Ti Xue accompanied an old man into the room, followed by two young men.

The old man was holding a sandalwood bead, wearing a black robe, with a gray beard and hair, and his elegant face revealed fortitude.

There are two young men behind him, the one on the left is slightly older, about [-] years old, has a similar face to the old man, and is dressed as a scholar.

On the right is a young man dressed as a man, wearing a purple gold crown inlaid with jewels on his head, and wearing a two-color gold hundred butterfly and red arrow sleeves with flowers. His face is like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and his color is like the flowers of spring dawn.The temples are cut like knives, the lips are like petals, the eyes are like autumn waves, the bridge of the nose is straight, and the brows are like ink paintings, full of heroism.

The representatives of the aristocratic families at the bow of the boat, the elders of Shuyuanshan all got up and greeted the old man when they saw the old man entering the boat. Lin Fangxu and other newcomers, although most of them didn't know who the old man was, they were always right to stand up.

The old man walked in front of Lin Fangxu and the others, and said with a smile, "Which one is the leader of this trial?"

Lin Fangxu was suddenly named, so he had to take two steps forward and replied, "Student Jinhuafu Lin Fangxu is the top case of this class."

After listening to the old man, he snorted and said: "It seems that Xu Zhao must have never mentioned the old man to you, and he didn't even know the master when he met him!"

Now Lin Fangxu finally knew who the old man was, Mr. Xu's mentor, Shang Zhongyan, whose name was Xiwen.

The Minister of the Ministry of War of the former Dynasty, now holds the false title of Grand Tutor, and returned to his ancestral hometown of Hangzhou to retire after his retirement.

Emperor Hongwu once said that it was really two great regrets in his life not to be assisted by two virtuous ministers.

One of them is the ancestor of Lin Fangxu, Lin Boli, who was several generations away from Emperor Hongwu, so he would never meet him no matter what.

The other one is Shang Zhongyan. Speaking of which, Shang Taifu is still the savior of Emperor Hongwu, and this has to start from the previous dynasty.

During the Mengnu Fanjing period, the emperor and officials fled if they could. Only Zhongyan, the Shangshu Shang of the Ministry of War at that time, stayed behind, leading and commanding the remaining soldiers and the people of Kyoto to stick to the capital.

When Emperor Hongwu was besieged alone, he was also the one who gave the emperor's elder brother the order to dispatch troops. Later, he joined forces with Emperor Hongwu to drive Mengnu out of the land of the Han people.

After Emperor Hongwu ascended the throne, he worshiped him to join the cabinet. He said that he had hurt his roots when he fought with Mengnu, so he declined.

Emperor Hongwu had no choice but to make him the crown prince and Taifu, and allowed him to go back from the first rank.

After Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne, he was also granted the title of Taifu, the first rank, and ranked among the three princes.

Lin Fangxu had only heard of his name in his previous life, but had never met him, so he quickly changed his words and said, "I have met Master."

Shang Zhongyan didn't make things difficult for him, just patted him on the shoulder and said: "Good boy, your master showed me your article during the Chinese New Year last year, and getting the first case is not considered to have buried you, let's go...! Follow the old man Go see the mountain chiefs, and let those old fellows see that they are not the only ones from the four major academies who can be the top of the case."

After listening to his words, Kou Tixue couldn't help but feel amused, and looked at the head of Ziyang Academy who had been preaching before the college exam that his student Shen Jing could win the case.

Hey...the complexion is really pretty.

The filial disciple Lin Fangxu followed Shang Zhongyan to the bow of the boat amid more than 40 pairs of envious and jealous eyes.

Lin Fangxu thought to himself, "Why are you envious, you will enjoy it when you go up to me." '

Of course, Lin Fangxu didn't want to enjoy it. In addition to Mr. Tixue, there were four mountain chiefs and two veteran Jinshi on the main table. How could Lin Fangxu have a junior seat.

He could only stand by the side with the other two younger students serving tea and wine. By the way, when Shang Zhongyan was talking about him to others, he showed his face there and said:

'Yes..., he said that his studies are not bad, and the disciple who is quite talented and intelligent is me. '

After the banquet, Lin Fangxu took Shang Zhongyan's carriage and went back to Xu's other courtyard on the way.

In the car, Shang Zhongyan introduced Lin Fangxu: "This is my eldest grandson, Shang Tan, who will take the provincial examination next year. You young people can communicate more."

Seeing Lin Fangxu's surprised expression, Shang Zhongyan sneered and said, "Why...don't you tell me that you won't take the provincial examination next year?! You're not very young, but you have a lot of heart."

After speaking, he leaned on the pillow, closed his eyes and rested his mind. The young master Shang smiled and winked at him, and the little brother sitting next to him also showed a teasing smile.

Lin Fangxu looked embarrassed, glanced at that gorgeous face, and thought to himself, "Master, there is still someone you haven't introduced." '

It's a pity that the master couldn't hear his heartfelt voice, and the carriage soon arrived at the other courtyard of Xu's residence.

When Lin Fangxu came back, everyone else had rested, only Lin Fangqin was still waiting for him in the living room.

Seeing him coming, he greeted him to sit down, asked about the banquet, and said: "This is a good thing, it's rare that Taifu Shang is willing to take care of you, I think it's because of Mr. Xu's face, you must thank him when you go back. "

Lin Fangxu nodded. He had never met Master in person in his last life, and this was probably the benefit of his rebirth.

Lin Fangqin said again: "I plan to buy some Hangzhou specialties tomorrow, and I will return to Wuyi County the day after tomorrow. Brother Xu, do you have any plans after returning?"

Lin Fangxu replied: "Master asked me to take the provincial examination next year, and naturally I have to prepare for the provincial examination after returning home."

Lin Fangqin knew that his younger brother had a good mind, and he said happily after hearing his words: "It seems that Brother Xu has some confidence."

Lin Fangxu smiled reservedly, and asked, "Brother, do you have any arrangements for yourself? Do you still follow Uncle Zhao as the accountant when you go back, and collect some loose tea?"

Lin Fangqin said unexpectedly: "Hey... Brother Xu has grown up, and he knows how to care about these things. He won't do the accountant, but he will do some tea business then."

After hearing this, Lin Fangxu had a solid idea, so he didn't say anything.

When Lin Fangxu and the others set off from Hangzhou, Shang Zhongyan was staring at his grandson.

"When will you go back, your mother-in-law wrote several letters to remind you!" Shang Zhongyan said, blowing his beard.

Sitting opposite him was the grandson who had not been introduced to Lin Fangxu, the younger brother of the Marquis of Wu'an, Jiang Shiyun.

Shang Zhongyan saw that he was playing with a gem dagger in his hand, but he didn't speak, and said helplessly: "This is the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, and your aunt begging like that, your father will not agree."

Shang Zhongyan saw that he drew out the dagger to make gestures, and hurriedly said persistently: "Xiaoyun, this woman and brother's marriage can't be chosen by oneself. It's better to marry your cousin if you marry someone you don't know. After all, your cousin is also an uncle."

Jiang Shiyun sneered: "Hey, he didn't earn it himself!"

"Grandfather doesn't need to talk anymore. I'll go back tomorrow. Yun'er understands the reason. It's just that I don't want to be reconciled to my cousin being spoiled by my aunt!" After Jiang Shiyun finished speaking, he slapped the dagger on the table.

Shang Zhongyan looked at the dent on his huanghuali tea case, his heart trembled, and then he saw his grandson's face full of loneliness, and said distressedly: "This is not right, he will not dare to mess with you when he lives in the future, you have told me at home Calculate."

Jiang Shiyun saw his grandfather's fawning face, and felt that his grandfather must have pretended to be asleep in the carriage last night. He was afraid that his old-fashioned nature would be exposed in front of children.

Lin Fangxu needs to know that he is a little kid in the heart of the little brother, and he doesn't know if he will vomit blood, but who made you not taller than the little brother.

There is no way, Lin Fangxu was not very tall before the age of 14 in his last life, and only after the age of 14 did he start to draw bars.

When Lin Fangxu and the others were still on the road, few people had heard the story of Liang Zhu in Honghulou.

Qu Shuangshuang also settled the silver taels with Ai Xiaoya. In nearly two months, Ai Xiaoya got more than 60 taels, which was slightly more than the buyout money.

Ai Xiaoya has already finished the general plot of The Dream of Red Mansions, but it is one of the four famous novels after all. Lin Fangming has been unable to write for a long time and has been conceiving. Although Ai Xiaoya can understand, she is a little anxious because of the sudden loss of income.

When Ai Xiaoya was anxiously considering whether to start the hotpot business first, Uncle Cheng Fu came to Wutong Lane and said, "Brother Ming, hurry back to the village, Brother Xu and the three of them have passed! Brother Xu has won the case." First of all, this is a small Sanyuan...! The patriarch said that this time it will be a big deal."

Lin Fangming said congratulations, but only he knew what was going on in his heart.

Ai Xiaoya was speechless. This college entrance examination is like the high school entrance examination in modern times. Is there any need to celebrate like this? Unfortunately, the situation is stronger than others, and if you don't want to, you can only pack your things and go back to the village.

Thinking about it in Ai Xiaoya's mind, taking the test is probably the defense of college graduation, but she overlooked one point, you may not be able to find a job after graduating from college, but you have tried it, not to mention the assignment, or assign you to be a official.

When Lin Fangxu and the others returned to the village, the firecrackers and red flowers in the village had already been hung up, and the village was full of joy.

Lin Fangqi looked at the clansmen who greeted him at the entrance of the village, and murmured: "Looks like another Buddha jumped the wall and ate it."

"……"other people.

This time, the people attending the banquet were no longer just members of the clan, but also relatives and friends from various families. Lin Fangxu and the three of them naturally sat at the main table.

Lin Fangxu is also not allowed to drink this time. The original words of the uncle are: "There are still township exams and general exams later. If you drink too much, what should you do if you hurt the brain of this little three-yuan exam? Maybe you can get a big one later." , three, yuan."

Of course, when Grandpa said this, he was mostly joking, but he did not deny that he did have such expectations.

The next day, the second brother and his wife naturally left early again, which is ridiculous to say, they both seemed to have forgotten that they had an infant son, and they didn't even look at each other when they left.

After breakfast, Lin Fangxu approached Lin Fangqin and asked, "Brother, are you going back to the tea shop today?"

Lin Fangqin asked: "I'm not in a hurry to go back, what's the matter with you?"

Lin Fangxu replied again: "Since elder brother is not in a hurry, I would like to invite elder brother to thumb slope to see a scenery that I discovered by accident."

Lin Fangqin was very curious about what kind of scenery would make his younger brother so interested. The two brothers greeted their families and set off.
