Volume 1 The Decisive Battle of the Forbidden City Chapter 161 Inside the Wall
But there are unforeseen circumstances, when Jinghe was fifteen years old, a group of people in the Beijing suburb gang took a fancy to his family's few acres of land, so they wanted to take it away at the bottom price, Gu's father naturally refused to give in, this is the foundation of the family heirloom, where can they give it to them, so the two sides started a dispute. How could a scholar who had read a dead book all his life be the opponent of these people, he was knocked to the ground in two blows, and soon after returning home, he vomited blood and died, but those acres of fertile land also belonged to those people.
The Gu family's family was in dire straits at that time. That year, Gu Jingran was twelve years old, and his mother washed and mended it, and it was not easy for him to become an adult.
It is said that time comes and goes, but it is also Gu Shusheng's fate, and the daughter of the rest of the family in the same village as him fell in love with him when she went on a trip. Since then, the two have fallen in love with each other, and often meet by the mountains and rivers.
Although it was out of love, it was also reasonable, and did not do anything unacceptable.
At this time, Gu's mother suffered from qi disease due to overwork for many years, and died soon after. Gu Shusheng was grief-stricken and kept filial piety for his mother for three years.
After the expiration of the filial piety period, the young lady of the Yu family couldn't wait because she was getting older, so she urged Gu Shusheng to go to his house to propose. A poor talent, with no fame and no permanent property, where is the rest of the staff willing to marry his pearl in the palm to him, so when Gu Shusheng proposed marriage, after humiliating him with all kinds of words, he asked his family to beat him out with a stick.
Poor Gu Shusheng was covered with injuries at the moment, the only little property in the family, and he also bought a gift for relatives, and after being beaten by that mess, the gift had long been lost. It's the cold winter of the moon, and the clothes on his body are thin, and he really has no relatives.
In the end, I thought about going to the capital to ask for some work, write and calculate for others, and it is good to be a bookkeeper.
But I don't want to, because the weather is cold and the New Year is approaching, it is difficult to find a job in Beijing. Under the pressure of hunger and cold, he nested in front of the Jing'an Hou Mansion. It was also his life that should not be extinguished, just when Zhao Shi went out to do errands, and saw that this scholar was a little familiar, so he took him to the mansion, and poured a few bowls of hot water before he returned to his soul.
After that, Gu Jingran stayed in Li's house and helped the gentlemen in charge of the accounts to calculate some of the daily expenses in the house.
That year was the twentieth year of Jinghe.
Later, because of his active mind, Bibi calculated the accounts clearly and clearly, and there was no mistake. Li Le saw that he was a person with a clean foundation, a generous temperament, and a willingness to repay his kindness.
Let him start to take charge of the accounts of the Xuanyi Club and Mei Xiangzhu.
After that, because Shijingkan Qianlizhai really needed manpower here, he was arranged to come over and become the deputy of the white fan.
After the politeness was over, Li Le said to Gu Jingran: "This year's scientific examination, the original intention was to go on~ You go to participate, you and I can also do it back in the same year." But there are too many things here, and I have no skills, so I can only grieve you. ”
Gu Jingran smiled indifferently and said: "Gu's life, this life has been sold to the little marquis, and the matter of the imperial examination is no longer his thoughts, so how can he talk about the word 'grievance'?"
Li Le said with a smile: "Nonsense, you are not a slave of my family, how can you say that you sell your body? An innocent scholar has no reason to say these self-degrading words, and he is not afraid of tarnishing his reputation." The theory of selling one's life has been mentioned since then. I treat you as a friend, but you can't practice yourself in vain. After two or three years, when the Supreme Honorable holds the imperial examination again, you will go to the exam, with your ability, it is not difficult to even enter the third yuan. ”
Li Le's words made Gu Jingran's eyes red, and he almost wanted to burst into tears. The waist pole that was originally straight and straight, but at this moment, he suddenly bent down, bowed deeply to the end, and saluted Li Le and said: "The third prince is very kind, Gu Mou is unforgettable in this life!"
Li Le hurriedly held him up, and sighed in his heart, which scholar does not have the heart to seek fame? Although there is now that the great merchants, civil and military are equal, and there is not only one way to become a scholar, the feelings of the former Song Dynasty that value scholars have always remained. Didn't you see that after listening to Li Le's words to Gu Jingran, both eyes seeped out?
After the two of them, three generals borrowed from Ye Shenming came up to salute Li Le. Then there were the two worshippers who came out of the palace, with a wooden face, and arched their hands with Li Le coldly.
Li Le didn't care, these people were like this in the palace, they ignored everyone, and they were used to it.
Then, the group entered the village, talking and laughing with each other, but also a little lively.
Along the way, Zhang Xingzhi still looks like a smiling fan, and he doesn't care about the surrounding things. Bai Bai Yu was completely different from him, when passing by an empty playground, he saw four or five people wearing armor and looking like generals, walking back and forth in a group of about two thousand, divided into four or five teams, standing like pines and cypresses, walking back and forth, if someone was slightly out of position, he would slap the young man on the ground, and the young man was still straight when he stood up, but blood flowed from his mouth, which proved that the slap that the young man had just received was not easy.
When passing by a small forest again, there were faintly hundreds of figures swaying in the forest, and occasionally there was an old eunuch sitting in the middle of the forest with a black veil folded on his head, with no beard on his face, and drinking leisurely, shot out the stones in his hand, and a person snorted and fell from the tree in the middle of the hand.
It was also a young man who fell, his face was full of pain, but he gritted his teeth, wiped the blood from his forehead, and flew up the tree again, shuttling back and forth in the forest.
Zhang Xingzhi didn't care about these things at all, just to watch the excitement.
Bai Yu is very concerned, he has an instinctive instinct, these teenagers will be very amazing in the future.
At this time, those who came out to greet Li Le, except for Bai Fan and Gu Jingran, the others had already dispersed and went their own way.
Li Le walked at the forefront, accompanied by Bai Fan and Gu Jingran on both sides, and Bai Baiyu, Zhang Xingzhi, Han Lu and the accompanying guards followed behind.
The three people who walked in front were talking to each other, and before they knew it, they were in front of a bamboo and wooden row house, and there were some teenagers in white clothes and linen skirts going back and forth, going in and out, looking very busy. Occasionally, there is also the smell of medicine.
At this moment, it is almost the early cold of late autumn, the surrounding flowers, leaves, grass branches, pines, poplars, willows and cypresses have all turned yellow, and in several compartments of the bamboo and wood row houses, some teenagers in white clothes and linen skirts are sorting out the herbs and sorting them into categories. Some put the sorted herbs into the mortar and grind them carefully.
In one of the yellow bamboo houses, an old man was talking to the thirty or forty teenagers below. In each paragraph, I will explain the principles of medication clearly and carefully, and will also tell some small stories, that is, the mistakes I made when practicing medicine, and tell them them in detail one by one, so that they will not make the same mistakes in the future. It was explained in great detail, for fear that they would not understand.
Because the old man knows a truth, the doctor is benevolent.
The white fan was quick-mouthed, looked at the old man who was preaching, and said to Li Le: "It is really wise for the third prince to send Mr. Long Er here, those imperial doctors from the palace are all unhelpful, one of the most ordinary prescriptions, and the monarch and the ministers and envoys have to discuss urgently for a long time, Mr. Long Er saw that they were ridiculous, and casually prescribed a prescription, so the imperial doctors were silent." ”
Li Le was familiar with Bai Fan's words, and his eyes were focused on a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl in the bamboo hut.
The girl was dressed in a white linen dress with a plump bun in the middle of her head. Don't insert a simple poplar hairpin, plain, a little cold.
There is also a little baby fat, which makes her face look a little bigger.
The forehead is slightly wider, or because the bun is combed too tightly.
The eyebrows are slightly thicker, but they feel very heroic.
The bridge of her nose was slightly higher, which made her feel like she was too strong.
The mouth is a little smaller, and it is tightly pursed, looking stubborn.
Her appearance was not perfect, the corners of her eyes were a little wide, her joints were a little large, and the hand holding the pen was not delicate enough. But when Li Le saw her, he was really a little stupid.
She knelt behind the bamboo table, perhaps because she had been kneeling for too long, her legs were a little uncomfortable and a little unnatural. Li Le's heart actually gave birth to a trace of pain.
At this moment, Mr. Long Er had already noticed the arrival of their group, shook the ruler in his hand, and said: "That's all for today, you go down and grind carefully, pay attention to precision in medicine, carefully scrutinize, and ponder in every way, so that you can live with flesh and bones." Do you understand?"
The students bowed down to be taught, and said in unison: "I understand, the medicine master is polite." ”
Among the male voices, especially the crisp female voices, are very eye-catching.
Mr. Ryuuji finally said, "It's all gone." ”
He stood up, walked towards Li Le and the others outside the bamboo house, gently patted his palms with a ruler, and said with a smile: "The third prince is here today, but he made a special trip to see the old man?"
He has worked with the Li family for many years, and he has never known any etiquette issues, so naturally there will not be so many etiquettes at this moment.
Li Le watched the slender back disappear at the corner of the bamboo house, and felt a little lost in his heart, and when he heard Mr. Long Er's question, he laughed and said, "What's the use of you? I came to see the girl." ”
Mr. Long Er glanced at his gaze and said with a wry smile: "Third son, that's my nephew and niece." ”
Li Le's eyes immediately lit up and asked, "Your niece?"
Mr. Ryuji sighed, nodded and said, "My nephew and niece, but I am a hard-working child. Alone, a month ago, with the refugees fled here. Knowing that the old man was begging for a living in your mansion, she wanted to go into the capital to find the old man, but she was isolated outside the capital, if it weren't for the six boys who came here on an errand on the orders of the son, she was hungry and rushed to the carriage of the six boys, and at this moment I was afraid that she had already been dead for a long time. ”
Li Le heard that he didn't feel good in his heart, and shouted: "Sixth son." ”
Han Lu ran over behind him and asked, "Do you understand what Mr. Long Er said? ”
(It's out, three shifts today.) For the sake of the fox working so hard, everyone will give a monthly ticket or something, if there is a supreme, hall master, helmsman or something, the fox will be quite happy, the motivation is enough, thank you book friends. )
