"Zhou Gongzi, what a coincidence, you also have time to come out to play. Besides, I recognized that the person who came over was Zhou Wenbin, a famous genius in Suzhou Prefecture. He is not a friend of Wenyou, but the elder brother of Wenyou, and he has a lot of dealings with his younger brother Zhou Wenjie.

"I am free every day, but I heard that you are locked up at home by Lord Lingzun every day, studying the subset of scriptures and history, and figuring out the way of heaven and man, so as to become famous in one fell swoop. ”

Besides, knowing that this was a five-point joke and a five-point ridicule, he had to laugh, turned back to his sister and said, "This is Zhou Gongzi, come and see it." ”

Before Guo Yu came over to salute, Zhou Wenbin pretended to be surprised and said: "This is the little sister of the Guo family, no wonder she is clumsy, it is the first time I have seen it." Is Ling Zun a universal amnesty today, and even the little sister has been released to play?"

Hearing him say bad things about his father, he simply excused himself from the courtesy, turned his little face and turned to the side.

Zhou Wenbin laughed and said: "Don't blame offended, I will make a special trip to the house another day to ask for the sin." Besides, Gongzi, it is not a shallow fate to see you today, I invite your brother and sister to drink real sour plum soup. Do you dare to call it sour plum soup here?"

The person who sold the sour plum soup was not angry and wanted to have a seizure, but when he saw Zhou Wenbin's panache and the two powerful servants behind him, he still closed his mouth knowingly.

A few people came to a teahouse on the opposite street, and first ordered sour plum soup, then fragrant tea and various pastries. Zhou Wenbin sat opposite each other at a table near the window.

Originally, she should have sat with them. She didn't wait to see Zhou Wenbin at this time, so she went to sit with Liu's mother, and the two servants of the Zhou family didn't dare to sit down, so they poured soup and tea for the two tables, took a plate of pastries, and then sat down in a corner, drank tea and ate snacks.

The sour plum soup here is really mellow, sweet and sour, and it is really chilled out of ice cubes, and when you take a sip, the cool air will penetrate into the skin, which is naturally a great enjoyment on a hot summer day.

"You don't look like a good person, but you said that the sour plum soup here is delicious, and you're right. Guo Yu turned his head and pouted at Zhou Wenbin and said.

Zhou Wenbin laughed happily, almost choking on the sour plum soup in his mouth.

Besides, I had to apologize: "Don't blame your sister for offending." ”

"Whereever, I was the first to offend. Besides, Childe, I have something I wanted to tell you a long time ago, but I have met a few times before, and they have all passed by in a hurry, so I might as well talk about it today. ”

"Please ask Zhou Gongzi for advice. ”

"Advice, Gongzi, let's exempt these vulgar rites, although we are people in the rites, in the words of Wang Anshi: Rites, how can they be set up for our generation. ”

Besides, nodding, he had a headache with Confucian red tape, and this remark also went to his heart.

"The first few times my brother brought back your articles and calligraphy, my friends in the school were all very appreciative, and everyone wanted to get to know you. The way of learning is in hard study, intensive study, speculation, and more emphasis on learning. It's not that I said, like you, who study hard at home every day, or inevitably have limited vision, maybe it's not a problem now, but it will be a big problem in the future. ”

Besides, he nodded again, people said that Zhou Wenbin was one of the best talents in Suzhou Prefecture, and his knowledge was really extraordinary. It's just that he doesn't know that he doesn't want to enter the official career from the imperial examination at all, he just wants to be a Confucian doctor, and he doesn't even want to be a celebrity.

In addition, the family moved to Suzhou Mansion not long ago, less than two years, and the family education is very strict, and the friends they know are very limited. As for the friends in the school that Zhou Wenbin said, he also heard a little, most of those people are delving into the eight strands, and they don't even know the scriptures and history, so it may not be beneficial to learn from them.

However, he has always wanted to see someone, Tang Yin, Tang Bohu, although this person is young, he is already famous. He knew that Zhou Wenbin and Tang Bohu had a close relationship, and after thinking about it, it seemed reckless to mention this matter at this moment, but he still didn't say it.

"My father has just joined a college, which I run with a few of my fellow students, if you don't dislike it, you are welcome to come and learn it with you. Could it be that Lord Lingzun will also oppose this?" Zhou Wenbin seemed to be serious.

Besides, he was speechless for a while. Guo Yu blinked and looked at his brother.

In the Ming Dynasty, they were basically private schools, responsible for enlightenment education, and the teachers were also school teachers, who were generally poor and talented, and the students taught were children. After the children are admitted to the county for their talents, they generally do not have to go to school, either they study hard at home, or they go out to study, learn from friends from all over the world, and prepare to take the exam.

Xiucai is easy to get, but it is difficult to lift people, because it is a provincial candidate to gather together, and the number of places to be taken every year is limited, but once the person is examined, it can be described as a fish leaping into the dragon gate, and the status is very different.

Of course, if you want to be an official, it is not enough to make a name for yourself, you have to be a scholar. Lifting people is generally up to the prefect, and there are very few people who can do the prefect, and the officials of the feudal territory are basically not touched. Jinshi is different, it is possible to be a county order, or it is possible to go straight to the prime minister, and the difference in official rank is worlds apart.

Therefore, once someone enters the rank of scholar, everyone will regard him as the future prime minister, at least he has this qualification, as for whether he can become the prime minister in 20 or 30 years, naturally no one knows. But no one dares to offend a future prime minister casually.

The development route designed by Zhong Wei is to take the Xiucai, which is easy to obtain, and then take the exam. It's not so easy to lift people, many times it's not just about the level of learning, it's more about fate, luck, etc., as for Jinshi, it really depends on fate.

Guo Zhong's idea is to use his son's fame as a protective umbrella, practice medicine in the world, and follow the path of Confucian medicine. A Confucian doctor with a reputation for making a name for himself is naturally very different from that of an ordinary doctor, who can not only seek wealth and nobility, but also save his life, and can advance or retreat.

In the Ming Dynasty, if you want to completely change your fate, you can only take the path of the imperial examination, and there is no other way. For example, Fan Jin, when he didn't lift people, he couldn't eat the poor food, he drank the northwest wind every day, and he jumped to the top of the clouds, and someone sent a lot of silver to his hand, and someone sent him to a big house, not to mention the utensils and servants at home.

Zhou Wenbin has long been a talent, and the next step is to move towards lifting people. It is said that he doesn't have to go to school, but his family is wealthy and is happy to gather with some celebrities and talents in Suzhou to learn poetry.

At the instigation of Zhou Wenbin, these young talents later simply joined a academy in Suzhou Prefecture and invited local celebrities to give lectures. Of course, this is much stronger than a private school, so it can be said that it is a small national prison.

"Joining the academy, we can also have a glimpse of Brother Guo's literary brilliance. "Zhou Wenbin's invitation is real.

In fact, I have already heard about the situation of the college, and I think it is a good place, the most important thing is that the college has no fixed rules, you can go if you want to, and you can not go if you don't want to go, unlike private schools, you have to go to class every day to endorse. This will not delay him from studying medicine at home.

"Brother Zhou's little brother understands it, but he doesn't dare to make his own decisions, and he has to go home and ask his father to decide. He thanked him.

"Of course, but I've heard that Lord Ling Zun has always had no objection to your study tour. ”

Besides, he nodded with a smile and didn't make any more excuses.

"Then I'll wait for your good news, and my friends in school are looking forward to it. Zhou Wenbin laughed happily and slapped his palms and said: "Come on, the best flower carving on the altar is coming, and I and Gongzi should be floating three whites." ”

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate, the younger brother shouldn't drink alcohol outside. Besides, he hurriedly excused himself.

"Today's party, you can be happy without drinking, you can rest assured, if Ling Zun is responsible, I will definitely go to the house to ask for the guilt. ”

Zhou Wenbin couldn't help but say, he called for wine again and again, and his two servants thought that the guy was slow, so they went into the back kitchen and took it themselves, but they really didn't treat themselves as outsiders.

Mother Liu originally wanted to stop it, but when she saw Zhou Wenbin's demeanor, she didn't even dare to say anything, where did she dare to stop it.

Suddenly, the wine came, and the servant poured three lamps for each of them, but it was not much.

Smelling the aroma of wine, Guo Yu also shouted for wine, Zhou Wenbin is a person who likes to be lively, how could he refuse, and immediately asked for a bottle of Jinhua sweet wine to Guo Yu and Liu's mother. Mother Liu is also a good drinker, she can't drink it on weekdays, but when she smells the smell of sweet wine at the moment, she doesn't care about anything.

He suffered from severe rheumatism and was a lifelong bumpy, long-term depression, so he concocted various medicinal liquors all year round to regulate his body. Besides, the brother and sister have secretly drunk two sips since they were children, and in the long run, if you talk about this amount of alcohol, the brother and sister can be said to have childlike skills.

At that moment, the three of them drank three glasses, and then the servant served some fresh fruits and dried fruits to drink. It's the same on the table.

After three lamps, the two of them just drank casually and ate some fresh and dried fruits. Zhou Wenbin told some interesting stories in the academy, which attracted frequent smiles.

Before I knew it, a jar of wine had been almost drunk, and I didn't feel anything, but Zhou Wenbin was a little too much. He stood up suddenly, looked around, and said, "Everyone else says I'm crazy, and I'm going to do something crazy today." ”

And they all looked at him, not knowing what he meant.

Zhou Wenbin laughed and said, "I'm going to rob today!"
