Chapter 36: Shocking
I'll change it after eating!

The author's family has children and old, it is not easy to code words, it is difficult to make a living, and anti-theft may cause inconvenience to you, so I pray that I will ask for your understanding here. The text will generally send a few hundred more words than anti-theft, and these words do not need to cost additional money, thank you for your consistent support.
The two new gentlemen are weird. Li Xiaopang deeply felt that he had been cheated by his uncle.
Let's talk about Mr. Qi first. This gentleman picked a house in the "Frost Hall" for a long time, and in the end, everyone shook their heads and was not satisfied. Although the Weishuang Hall is not big, there are more than a dozen large and small rooms, in the early years, it was the guest room where his father received friends, each of which was decorated with the style of a literati and a gentleman, and the environment was good.
Outside the house of this slight frost hall is a patch of fine bamboo, the night wind is howling, and you can hear the clear sound of the wind blowing the bamboo forest. In winter, the frost condenses and the bamboo, the bamboo shrinks, and sometimes you can hear the whispering sound, which is called "frost language", which is a proud scenery in the house.
He is not even satisfied with such a room, so he has to live in the main room?
This gentleman's surname is Qi Mingyao, the word Minghui, although Mr. Minghui's reputation is big in Shilin, but Li Xiaopang doesn't know anything about it. But grandma and uncle both instructed not to slack off Mr., and the uncle even told this "Qi Minghui" to be a celebrity, his knowledge and character are first-class, and he must be motivated, so although Li Xiaopang was angry, he still accompanied Mr. Qi with a stiff face to finish shopping in the West Garden.
Finally the gentleman swam to the north corridor, and pointed to whoever sits,
- "That's it! ”
Li Xiaopang turned his head and showed towards the place where no one was, "This master is a snake spirit disease, it must be a snake spirit disease, right?" Expression.
"Who sits on the pavilion" is a half-overhead pavilion on the water, and there is a half-circle verandah outside. On both sides are large windows that can be opened, one side is a terrace that extends directly to the water, and the other is an entrance to the verandah. "Who sits in Xuan" is the best place in the West Garden, and the environment is good.
The problem is that this "Who Sits in Xuan" is a small pavilion with a view, which is only used as a study, and Li Meng often paints or admires the moon here, not for the usual use of the house. What's more, there is no bed here, and there is no place to wash, this gentleman said that this place is "quite interesting", and then chose it as a place to live, but it is okay to live, where do you sleep?
Li Rui dryly explained the special status of this "who sits in the Xuan", trying to use the name of his deceased father to make this master taboo and change places.
As a result, Mr. Qi listened to Li Rui's words, his eyes lit up, but he found a bedroom on the Xuantai, and sighed:
"It turned out to be Brother Ge Sheng's comfortable place, no wonder a merry air rushed towards him! Although I haven't seen Brother Ge Sheng yet, we have been friends for a long time, and this is the best place to live! Don't have a bed? It doesn't matter. Wouldn't it be nice to see me replace the bed with the window and the breeze and the moon as the quilt? ”
Hurry up your sister! Where is there any merry air! Is it good to only have the water vapor rushing in on the water? You and my dad haven't met, and God has been friends for a long time! Sleeping on the windowsill and going out of his house is going to be scolded to death, okay? Is it nice to hear the news of "I was surprised to see a gentleman freezing to death on the windowsill at night"? It's February, February!!
Li Xiaopang is no longer able to complain.
"Master, you may consider considering other places. Although the sitting room is bright, there are several bright places in the West Garden. The Mandarin Duck Pavilion is also good, and you can also see the Mandarin Ducks playing in the water, which is quite interesting......"
Li Xiaopang felt that his eloquence had made great progress after meeting this gentleman.
"Don't go. I'm not a little girl, what a duck! Qi Minghui shook his sleeves, went around directly in "Who sits in the Xuan", admired it everywhere, and waited to see the fan in Li Meng's handwriting, "Who are you sitting with?" Breeze, bright moon, I" screen, can't help but be dressed properly, respectfully to the screen deep to the ground.
"The world is highly praised as Brother Gesheng's 'good talent and beauty', and the foolish brother was born a few years later, and he has not seen his brother's demeanor. The words of this book are majestic, such as the dragon jumping over the gate of heaven, the tiger lying in the phoenix, and the courage of Brother Ge Sheng. Seeing words is like seeing people, and foolish brothers worship. Since then, I have lived in this Xuan, and I hope that Brother Ge Sheng will come to sleep late. The two of us had a drink, sat with me, and shared the breeze and moon, which was also a good story. ”
I actually invited my deceased father to dream! This Master is really, really......
Li Xiaopang, who had mixed feelings, suddenly had a good impression of this neurotic master.
After Qi Minghui worshiped the screen, he immediately pasted it and stroked the screen with his hand, carefully outlining the strokes and vicarious inheritance of those words, Li Xiaopang saw that it was useless to persuade again, so he had to silently accept this fact.
He turned around and went out, and instructed the maids who had been assigned to serve Mr. Qi to go to the Weishuang Hall to get bedding and other supplies, so that Mr. Qi would not be frozen to death by sleeping on the windowsill at night. The second is to go to the craftsmen of the workshop in the house to see if they can add a curtain or other setting to the Xuantai to block the wind and rain, so as not to rain, and the quilt and pillow will be soaked. There's still wind, and it's a hassle to blow a headwind.
There are also problems such as washing, eating, and staying at night.
'I'm going to take back my favor! I'm looking for an ancestral master! ’
Gu Qing, who was sitting in the study of the Carved Bow Building, was amused by Li Xiaopang's expression, this new master who came to teach was indeed very interesting, and there was a kind of Wei and Jin style. It seems that Xiaopang's uncle knows that Li Xiaopang's disciple is thin, and he found a strange master to take the sword and take a different path.
I'm really looking forward to what Li Xiaopang can be taught!
Li Rui saw that his grandmother was very happy by Mr. Li's matter, and his heart was also full of joy.
Since the master came, he didn't look like the master of the West Garden, but like the old mother of the two masters, he had to care about everything, and even the greetings that came over every day missed for several days. Originally, before coming to Zhiyun Courtyard today, Li Rui was still worried that his grandmother would blame, but Gu Qing opened his mouth and asked if he was tired in the past few days, which moved him to tears, and the bitter water of being tortured by the two masters for so many days suddenly spit out to his grandmother.
Seeing that his grandmother was happy, Li Rui went on to talk about another gentleman.
Hey, the right should be "colorful clothes to entertain relatives"!
"Another Mr. Du......"
The staff member sent by Li Rui's uncle to his nephew is surnamed Du, called Du Jin, the word Dongsheng, and he is the leader of Kaiping for four years. In the second year after this master entered the Hanlin Academy, he returned to his hometown due to the death of his mother, and he was nearly forty years old after his filial piety. At the age of forty, he entered the Hanlin Academy, and then he had his turn to go out after a few years of polishing, and after returning to Beijing after the release, he could return to his hometown at the age of old, which Du Jin did not want his life to be wasted, so he reported his illness and resigned, and returned to his hometown in Tongzhou to teach and educate people.
When Li Rui's uncle Zhang Ning served in Tongzhou, he admired his talent and accepted him as a staff member.
This Mr. Dongsheng is not as weird as Mr. Minghui, he is a middle-aged man in his forties who looks very ordinary, and he has a long beard under his chin like his uncle and uncle, and he looks very stable.
Zhang Ning said to Li Rui at the beginning that this person was trustworthy and "nothing to say to him". It was a gesture for his nephew to use him as a counselor or counselor.
As soon as Mr. Dongsheng saw Li Rui, he shook his head. Li Rui thought that he disliked his appearance and figure, and secretly felt inferior in his heart, but he raised his forehead and sighed: "Too high, too high!" ”
"Huh?"
"I look at your face, the heavenly court is high and full, the nose is looking around, and the five mountains are arching, which is an excellent appearance, but you are not right now, and you can't take the title, this look is not suitable. Today's saint is the British lord, and it is impossible to let the public mansion bloom in two places and sit back and watch the momentum. If you are proud, the government will be disappointed, and if you are disappointed, the government will have no loss, so I have to sigh. Your life is too high, but it is not beautiful. ”
Li Xiaopang was confused, did Mr. say that his life is good? Life is too good, so it's not good?
What a mess this is!
"Again, your eyes are hidden, and your eyes are black and white, this is a decisive decision to kill, and the tendency to distinguish between right and wrong is an excellent life for men. But there is a three-edged bun on your forehead and hairline, if this bun is on a woman, it is called 'beauty point', and on a man, it is called 'merry eyes'. The daughter of the boudoir is amorous, and she can still win the favor of her husband and achieve a good thing; Men who can kill and decide are amorous, and most heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass. ”
"Yu Ji Yu Ji Nai ~ Ruo ~ He ~ Ahh
This, this Du Jin actually sang the drama?!
This Dongsheng Master looked at Li Rui's fate for an afternoon, and finally came to the conclusion that "Well, this son can be helped, should be helped!" Then he told him to go back and come back tomorrow.
Li Rui, who originally wanted to grasp this strategist to talk about life and the future, went back to his room with a mind of "the sky is round and the place is round, and the five mountains are arched" or something.
'Am I so handsome?' The little boy couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, so he ordered the girl to bring a freshly polished bronze mirror and shine it happily.
……
……
……
Stumble! His facial features have been connected with the flesh on his face, and even he can't see where the facial features are protruding. Do you mean his fleshy nose?
Round-headed nose, which is also called the nose is looking around? Bullying him doesn't know Fang Yuan?
Where is this to find a strategist to come back, a whole fortune teller! Could it be that in the future, when he went to ask for advice, this gentleman would take a tortoise shell out to make a divination, or tell him, "Watch the sky tonight and night, and learn that tomorrow will ......?"
Li Xiaopang felt that he had no future.
Gu Qing looked at Li Rui's squeezed cake-like face, couldn't help laughing, and fell directly on the small table of Luohan's bed. Wide forehead? It's a wide forehead, which fat man have you ever seen with a narrow forehead? It's a tragedy if it's narrow, and it's okay to become a chestnut?
A chestnut? Burst!
"So you're screaming and merry-eyed? Burst! I have always felt that your forehead is like a white lady, it turned out to be merry eyes. Hahahaha, Wuyue Dynasty Arch, Arch ...... Belch? ......" Gu Qing froze.
Joy is sad.
"Rui'er, you go out for a while, grandma smiled and stretched her muscles, and asked Mama Hua to rub it for me......"
Li Rui took a few steps forward with a nervous face, "Does grandma matter?" Why don't your grandson rub it for you! ”
"Don't come here!" Gu Qing ran over with a belly of grass and mud.
Don't come here! She's afraid of smelling!
"Grandma, this is an old problem, you have to change your clothes and rub them closely, you are not right here, go outside and feed the fish." Grandma is fine, Grandma Hua is experienced, and when she finishes feeding the fish, Grandma will be fine, ah? ”
Li Rui looked at Mama Hua suspiciously, didn't I hear that Mama Hua has this craft?
But the grandmother wanted to remove the coat and massage, and it was really inappropriate for the grandson to stay here, so Li Rui bowed slightly to Mama Hua, and said, "There is Mama Laohua", and exited the study of the carved bow building in a proper manner, and went out of the door.
Li Rui, who went out, burst into tears.
Grandma! It's winter now, and the fish are sinking to the bottom, how can you feed them?
Who sat in the Xuan last time, this time in the carved bow building, Gu Qing deeply felt that he was in a collision with a place with water.
Xiangyun went to Zhiyun Courtyard to get a full set of clothes, took the hand-held incense burner and the new Arhat bed furnishings, and hurried back to the Carving Bow Tower with a few girls. The old lady is still wearing wet clothes! Can you not run faster?
After waiting for the old lady to clean, change his dress, smoke incense, remove the full set of arrangements on the Luohan bed and put it on again, Li Rui has been drinking the wind outside for an hour.
Li Rui came in, and Gu Qing saw the little fat man's frozen little face, and hurriedly pulled him to the warm basin and sat down, and stuffed a hand stove into his arms.
"Why don't you wait in the next room! When it's cold, you take shelter from the wind! ”
'Grandma, you asked your grandson to feed the fish!' I fed the bait for an hour, dare you always say it casually? 'Good boy Li Rui is petrified.
Gu Qing didn't dare to laugh out loud anymore after what happened just now, but Li Xiaopang and the two masters had only said half of it, and they just commented on the story, and at the best time, they came to "Let's listen to the next decomposition", which was really itching, so he urged him to say:
"What about the next day when you went to Mr. Dongsheng? Or do you look at the looks? ”
Li Rui made a bitter expression, frowned at the old age, and sighed slightly:
"It's hard to say anything about this matter, grandma, listen to me in detail......"
On the second day, Li Rui got up early, finished the sandbag and skipping rope that his grandmother stipulated he must make every morning, and after breakfast, he changed his clothes and went to Mr. Dongsheng's room.
When they arrived at the Frost Hall, the two gentlemen had been waiting for a long time and were playing against each other.
Li Rui doesn't know anything about piano and chess, and the book is okay, but how about painting...... Does it count if you've ever drawn a kite with your grandma?
In short, Li Rui stayed on the sidelines, watching the two masters play chess, waiting very boringly.
This game of chess was played for about two or three quarters of an hour, and Li Rui did not dare to sit down in order to show his respect for his teacher, and was punished for two or three quarters of an hour by "being punished for standing". Thanks to the fact that he has been taught by his grandmother for so long, if he is as weak as before, he will definitely fall down at such a stop, I don't know what the two masters will do when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaopang, who was already standing with some numb legs, couldn't help but think of pranks. But all young people are a little self-centered, always "I am the biggest in heaven and earth", these two masters obviously knew that he was coming, but they pretended to play chess and were completely ignorant, which made Li Rui angry.
He felt that if he pretended to be dizzy, the two masters would be sweating profusely and feeling guilty. These two gentlemen are holding their own rice bowls, how can they take into account the opinions of the lords in the lower house, if it is even worse, maybe they will have to apologize to him.
Hmph, let's see if they dare to hang him next time!
Thinking like this, Li Rui's body shook from side to side, and he fell down with a "bang".
Uh......h The floor tiles are so hard! If you make a mistake, you should change to a soft place!
…… A stick of incense time has passed.
…… Two pillars of incense time has passed.
The two masters are still playing chess.
If it weren't for the boy who came to pour tea in the courtyard and saw Li Rui sleeping in the courtyard, he didn't know how long the young master would lie down in embarrassment. There was a lot of chaos in the yard, the quilt with the quilt, and the hand stove with the hand stove, and it was busy for a long time, Li Rui changed into a big fur with cloud fox skin, and held the stove to warm it for a long time, and then he was relieved.
The two masters didn't play chess anymore, they just looked at him with a smile.
"This first lesson is to guard against arrogance and rashness."
Li Xiaopang made a big red face.
Mr. Dongsheng twisted his beard and said, "This kind of thing is only useful for those who value you. You have not yet figured out our character, so you have hastily resorted to a 'bitter ploy', and if we really have bad intentions towards you, you have already frozen out of the problem. ”
"If the boy doesn't come, do the two masters really want me to lie there all the time?" Li Rui looked at the ground with palpitations.
"Well, maybe, maybe not, who knows?" Master Minghui looked at the sky ambiguously.
…… It's also so irresponsible.
"If you want to destroy yourself again in the future, think of the embarrassment of lying on the ground today. Wanting to gain the attention of others by hurting oneself has always made enemies happy and relatives cry. You've been overspoiled in the past and have had a bunch of problems. The so-called 'habitual son is like killing a son', and no one can guarantee that the husband will not experience grievances and suffer setbacks and hardships in the future. Even the one on the dragon throne still has a time to bow his head to the family......"
"Brother Minghui, be cautious!" Du Jin was taken aback, and this Qi Minghui began to speak wildly again.
"He's a son of a family, and this kind of thing has to be known sooner or later. In the next two generations, it will not be another family, if he wants to become a talent, is it possible that he still has to close his eyes and plug his ears to deceive himself? Qi Minghui shook his head and said.
"What I want to say is that people don't get used to you like your aunts and uncles, and if you get used to everyone giving in to you, what do you do when others don't? What if someone else pretends to give in, but in fact harbors evil intentions and waits for you to set the trick? ”
"Pretending to be pathetic like you do today to win the sympathy of others? Or wagging his tail and begging for mercy, begging for help? ”
Although Li Rui is young, he is not stupid. He knew that the two gentlemen in the house had seen his greatest danger and were teaching him in another way.
So Li Rui respectfully bowed as a disciple.
"Please also ask the masters to teach me."
Du Dongsheng picked up his disciple and subdued Li Rui, and he finally put down a big stone in his heart.
He was willing to leave his hometown and write to the Guogong Mansion to teach a child, in addition to receiving his father's great favor in the past, more out of concern for this country.
It has only been ten years since the world was peaceful, but there has already been a slight scene of chaos.
The old emperor and the two old princes and ministers got along, Li Laoguogong, who held the military power, decisively handed over the military power, and Zhang Laoguogong, who was born in a family, persuaded the family to return to the people, and released the tenants who belonged to the wealthy families to seek protection in the disaster year to return to their hometowns to farm, so that the great Chu could recuperate and gradually rebuild their homes.
But now that the family is getting bigger, Li Lao Guogong has died, and Jin Lao Guogong has also been in bed for three or four years to report illness, and he has not been in court for a long time, and he may go west at any time. The queen mother and queen of the harem are all from the Zhang family of Jinju, and most of the women in the harem are also from the family, and the current emperor has been on the throne for ten years, but he has not set up a prince, which shows that he has been quite afraid of the family.
The foundation of Dachu is shallow, and the new talents have not yet grown up, which is destined to be in the middle of the court for a few more years, but it is easy for the family to produce a talent, but it is dangerous to produce a talent from a poor family, and it is often possible to reach the court, and there is not one in ten.
At this time, the position of Duke Xinguo became very delicate, Li Mao was a lonely minister, and Li Laoguo Gong dispersed Li Meng's advisers before he died, so that Li Mao had no talent to use the arrangement, and he could only be a lonely minister. Li Mao did not have Li Meng's ability, he would definitely not be able to suppress this group of strategists, and when the time came, he would have other thoughts, but it would be a catastrophe for the Xinguo Mansion. Only when he is isolated and relying on the Holy Beings today can he continue to stand firm. This old prince made a dying move, which not only showed his loyalty to the new emperor, but also made the current saint have to use and reuse the Xinguo Mansion.
Which side this Xin Guogong is facing at this time is likely to determine the trend of the family and the imperial power in the next ten years. After all, the old troops of the old Guogong are all in the army, and although Li Mao is not familiar with military affairs, the prestige of the "Li Family Army" is still there.
At this time, Zhang Ning wrote a letter, talking about his nephew's situation, full of resentment and regret for the other party's nephew, and asked him to go out of the mountain, but he saw another terrible possibility.
Li Rui is a very good banner and a good chess piece. If Li Mao is dedicated to being the king and has the protection of the saint, he will naturally not be easily defeated, but what if they fight among themselves? What if the family and the queen support Li Rui and intend to plot the title?
Qi Minghui is probably also for this reason. The clan is powerful, but not every clan wants to compete with the current saint for power, making it so embarrassing. If the saint slowly plots it, the world will probably be able to prosper for a while, and it may not be impossible to find a balanced way out. But now that the saint is in his prime, he is in the prime of life, and if there is an accident at this time, the saint will make a move, and the world will rebound, and I am afraid that he will have to fight again.
The "Qi family", which is the same clan as the current royal family and the Duke of Xinguo, is the "moderation faction" of today's family. They do not advocate forcing the imperial power to the point where the lord is weak and the minister is strong, Qi Minghui deigned to come to the Xinguo Mansion to teach a general corner child, I am afraid that it is not only for Zhang Ning's face.
Only Li Rui himself can resist the temptation of the title first, so that he can not be used by others. But if you have that kind of mind and vision, you must not be able to be educated by the Fang family, a stupid woman with other thoughts.
If someone can go through Li Mao's path and clear the interests and disadvantages, so that this Xinguo Gong treats his son and nephew well, it is a great luck for Da Chu, but it is a pity that how many people can have this weight in the world?
Could it be that the illiterate old lady Qiu in the backyard?
The Xinguo Mansion is in danger, and there is no one to use, but it is ridiculous that Li Mao is dumb and unknown, narrow-minded, and now there is no way out except to rely on the saint, but fortunately, although he is mediocre, His Majesty always has to teach him carefully in order to be able to use him, and he must be carefully maintained. Li Laoguo Gong was dying in a chess move, which could have allowed the mansion to stand for another few decades, but if he had a spirit under the spring, he found that his young son, who was plotting with his heart, was plotting against his nephew and set himself on fire, I don't know how to feel.
If Lao Guogong Li is still there, with Lao Guogong at the helm, Li Mao will definitely not make any stupid moves; If Li Meng was still there, hand in hand with the future new emperor and ministers, this Great Chu Dynasty would not be like this. Li Meng's son would have married the daughter of the head of the Hanlin Academy, I am afraid that the old emperor looked at the Hanlin Academy and studied a group of poor people who had no way to serve him, and left his son's connections in the hope that he would be of great use in the future.
These scholars were under the protection of Li Meng and the head of the academy, and they also thought that they would be a blockbuster in the future and be diligent in the king's affairs, but Li Meng died first, and the new emperor gave in, and he was unwilling to continue to waste, so he left the Hanlin Academy.
It's a pity that those high-spirited sons of heaven in the past don't know whether they are arrogant now.
Li Rui naturally didn't know the big stories of the two masters.
After he told his grandmother how the two masters taught him the first lesson of being a human being, Gu Qing nodded with admiration.
"Well, the master your uncle found for you is very good, you have to cherish it. It is easy to find a gentleman who can teach you to learn the knowledge in books, but it is rare to find a gentleman who can teach you the talent of warp and weft. You are from a public government and do not need to be promoted by the imperial examination, which is true, but there are some things that you must understand after reading the book. Your two masters are willing to give you all the knowledge you have learned in your lifetime, this is your great blessing, as for your appearance and personality, it is all vain. ”
Li Rui said yes.
"That ......" Gu Qing scratched his chin, "I don't know when your Mr. Dongsheng will be free, ask him if he can spare time to show the old body?" ”
Li Rui: ......
