Chapter 438: Opponents
The two played a game, Yu Fengyang won a son, and he couldn't help but be triumphant, "Old monk, don't be complacent, the old man will win you sooner or later." ”
Monk Yunqing chanted the Buddha, "The old man is waiting for the donor here." ”
Yu Fengyang became more and more proud, and pulled Guo Wenying to fight again.
Guo Wenying came to see him this time, so naturally she also sharpened her temperament as much as possible, and went back and forth with Yu Fengyang.
In fact, she really thinks that it is not very difficult to play chess with Old Man Yu, the two are of average level, and they are really a chess match. After a few more games in a row, Yu Fengyang was still unsatisfied, and pestered Guo Wenying to go down.
Guo Wenying pushed away the chessboard and stood up, "It's not too early, it's time for the juniors to go down the mountain." ”
Yu Fengyang refused, making trouble like an old naughty boy, and he had to say that he would let her go only after he had finished.
Guo Wenying pretended to be very unhappy, and said in a low voice: "The old man promised me one condition first, and I will play chess with you every day in the future." ”
"On what terms?"
"Take me as a disciple. ”
At this time, the old monk was tasting tea, and before he could swallow it, he heard Yu Fengyang say: "Take you as an apprentice?" Do you know that the old man doesn't like other people's threats the most. ”
Guo Wenying was choked, but she was thick-skinned and didn't care, she stood up and left.
Yu Fengyang hurriedly stopped her, after all, he is also a rare Guo Wenying, if she is allowed to run away, where will she find someone to play chess in the future.
He said: "It's not that the old man doesn't want to accept you as an apprentice, it's just that you are a big girl, what are you doing with the old man as a teacher?"
Guo Wenying said: "What's wrong with the girl? How many girls have you seen like me? Not to mention that there is no other girl in the world, there is only such a one in a hundred years." ”
Yu Fengyang actually nodded, "That's the same." ”
The old monk was almost stupid, he had known Yu Fengyang for many years, and he had never seen him led by the nose like this. And besides, this is a girl? Why didn't he see it at all?
Guo Wenying smiled: "In that case, then why can't Old Man Yu accept apprentices? It's not ashamed to find an apprentice like me, right?"
Yu Fengyang laughed, "That's the same, now you are much more famous than the old man." ”
As he spoke, he said to Master Yunqing: "Old monk, you don't know, this girl is not easy to mess with. He talked about Guo Wenying's great achievements again, and the spit stars flew all over the sky.
Many of the words of the market are indeed exaggerated, but I have to admit that what Guo Wenying did was indeed beneficial to the country and the people, and it was needless to say that the expulsion of Wara was to drive away Jiang Taiping in the southeast and exterminate the rest of the party, which was also beneficial to the people.
Master Yunqing has never seen Yu Fengyang respect a person so much, this old man is very stubborn, and he rarely has a good eye for him. It seems that she can get his praise, this girl is really capable.
He stood up and clasped his palms together, "Lao Wei has thanked Master Guo for the people of the world." ”
Guo Wenying hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare, Wenying doesn't dare to be a master and praise it so much." ”
Under the persuasion of Master Yunqing, Yu Fengyang actually agreed to accept her as an apprentice, Guo Wenying didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and couldn't help but rejoice in his heart. At that time, he performed an apprenticeship in Qingyun Temple.
It's just that she didn't prepare for the six rites and other apprenticeship rites, but fortunately, Fengyang is not a person who pays attention to hypocrisy, and a cup of tea is enough.
Yu Fengyang took the tea she toasted and said with a smile: "You will go to the old man's house from tomorrow, the old man will test you." ”
Guo Wenying responded respectfully.
In fact, the reason why Yu Fengyang agreed to accept her as an apprentice was that on the one hand, he did like her, but the most was because of Feng Jingting's face. On the second day after he returned to Beijing, the emperor invited him into the palace, and what he said between the words was to thank and admire him, and also said that he wanted to learn from him.
Yu Fengyang was not a fool, so he naturally knew that the emperor had something to say, so he smiled and said: "The emperor doesn't dare to accept a student like this." ”
Feng Jingting said: "The old man refuses to accept me, so how about I introduce you to a student?"
Yu Fengyang raised his eyebrows, "Which student has such a face, can he be recommended by the emperor?"
Feng Jingting smiled, "Naturally, it's Guo Wenying, and Mr. has also seen it." Please also ask the gentleman to accept this student. He bowed deeply, and made a great salute.
Yu Fengyang was not very happy at first, he was old, it was the time to retire, what kind of students did he train? But for the sake of the emperor's face, he reluctantly agreed. And when I saw Guo Wenying today, I suddenly felt that this student was good, and when I was fine, I could play chess with him, talk, and relieve my loneliness.
Old man Yu stayed in Qingyun Temple until the evening before leaving, Guo Wenying also accompanied him, watching the old man's carriage go away, and then got into the carriage.
When she returned to the house, it was already dark, so she hurriedly ate and went to the study to carry a lot of books. She didn't know what to test her, in fact, for these ancient books and knowledge, I really didn't learn much, she lost her mother at a young age, and no one taught her well, although there was a master, what she learned was some pure crafts. When she first arrived at the barracks, she didn't recognize some traditional Chinese characters, and she was taught by Feng Jingting. Later, he followed Lu Qifang's tactics of war and Feng Jingting's formations, but when it comes to the Four Books and Five Classics and the like, he really doesn't understand it at all.
Alas, I don't know if it's too late to hold on to your feet now?
She stayed up all night, flipping through various books, not trying to remember, just to have a general understanding. In this way, I didn't finish all of it, Chinese culture is broad and profound, and it really can't be learned overnight. Seeing that it was almost dawn, I felt too sleepy, so I lay on the table for a while, and when I woke up, it was already sunset.
She hurriedly washed her face and changed her clothes, and she didn't eat, so she asked Yunmo to prepare the car and go out with her.
Old man Yu lives on Rongde Street, which is very close to the imperial city, and officials from the upper and lower dynasties pass by the door every day. This old man lived here when he was the prime minister and the cabinet was old, this is the house given by the first emperor, and he is sympathetic to his age, mainly close to the imperial city and convenient for the court.
Guo Wenying hurried to Yu's house and asked the porter to pass the word, and it took a while before someone invited her in.
Old man Yu also didn't get up for a long time, he was sitting in the hall for breakfast, he had bad teeth, he couldn't eat hard, the table was full of soft things, and the noodles were cooked poorly, and he didn't look like he had an appetite.
Guo Wenying walked over, picked up his clothes and was about to kneel, Yu Fengyang pouted, "I'm looking for bad luck early in the morning, I'm not dead yet, what are you kneeling for." ”
Guo Wenying was a little embarrassed, and she stopped there for a while and didn't know whether to kneel down or not.
