Chapter 147: Li Rui's Golden Finger
Chen Yi looked at Li Zhao and recognized at a glance whose child he was.
This child and Li Jun look too much like their grandfather.
It's also a bit like their cousin Li Shuo.
Li Mao, Li Jun, and Li Zhao look like this, which is what most of the Li family looks like. Li Meng, Li Rui, and Li Ming are all special cases of their bloodline that have been improved by their mothers.
"This is the grandson of Master Li Yan, right?" Chen Yi touched his beard with a smile.
Zhilu Dao went to Xingzhi Academy, what a vision!
Li Zhao saw that there were outsiders, and he was still an elder, so he hurriedly performed the junior salute, "My grandfather's name is indeed Li Yan." I don't know who this old gentleman is? โ
Chen Yi had worked with Li Yan in the army for a period of time before, and responded with a smile: "I am your grandfather's former colleague, you can call me Mr. Chen." โ
"Hello Mr. Chen."
"Okay."
Chen Yi was happy when he saw Li Zhao's dedication to learning, so he deliberately asked him: "Why do you want to know the academy?" โ
Gu Qing's heart fluttered.
In case he opens his mouth and says, "I want to study, I want to be a big official, I want to make money", is there a bit of a discount? Will Mr. Chen Yi have an opinion on him?
It's still a child, probably not, right?
When Li Zhao saw the old gentleman asking him, he tilted his head and said, "Huh? Doesn't it mean that in addition to Guozijian in the capital, Xingzhi Academy is the best academy? โ
This didn't answer Chen Yi's question at all, but it still made him happy.
It has been less than ten years since he established Xingzhi Academy, but now even the children of Jingnan know the name of Xingzhi Academy, and Chen Yi is very proud.
"Yes, Xingzhi Academy is the best academy in the capital except for Guozijian." Chen Yi said shamelessly. "But what do you mean, I ask you, why do you want to study and study?"
Chen Yi looked at Li Zhao expectantly.
"I want to be able to write letters, to write letters with beautiful rhetoric, not to be ashamed, not to have unrecognizable words." Li Zhao's idea at this stage is very simple. "It would be better if it was written in a way that made people feel very knowledgeable."
"Do you apply what you have learned? Your personality is really like the Li family, pragmatic. Chen Yi smiled and nodded, "That's a good reason." โ
"This is Old Lady Chen, who was the chief of staff of your cousin's grandfather, and now the dean of Xingzhi Academy." After Gu Qing introduced Chen Yi, he pointed to Li Zhao and asked Chen Yi, "This child is going to be sent to Xingzhi Academy to study, and now he has just finished 'primary school', I don't know which class to study?" โ
As soon as Li Zhao saw that this old gentleman was the dean of the place where he would study in the future, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.
It turns out that the gentleman of the academy is also an acquaintance at home, so he doesn't have to worry about the problem of hand-to-hand boards in the future!
"I just finished elementary school, and I don't need to read the small class of enlightenment, and I can go directly to the middle class." Xingzhi Academy is divided into classes according to "small, medium, and large", the small is the enlightenment class, the middle class is the class that has some basic literacy but has not yet learned the subset of scriptures and history, and the large class is a class prepared for the imperial examination.
"Well, the 'Secondary 2' class has just started, and Li Zhao can directly enter the 'Secondary 2' class."
Gu Qing's face bulged, and he almost didn't laugh.
Form 2 !!
"It's the end of June now, and we don't teach in the middle of summer, so you can enter the 'Secondary 2' in the autumn. I will ask someone to send me the textbooks and handouts that I am currently taking, and you can learn some from the gentleman in the house first, and then you can go directly to the class when the autumn is cool. โ
Gu Qing's eyes widened.
Hey? Summer here is also summer vacation?
Chen Yi looked at Li Zhao and said to him:
"You're going to write beautiful letters? Then write a few words and show me. โ
Li Zhaozhang, the second monk, was confused, and asked for pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and wrote a few words.
Chen Yi looked at Li Zhao's words, shook his head and sighed lightly.
"Your word has neither god nor bones, and you are also weak and weak, I think it should be a woman's enlightenment, and you have not undergone any exercise."
"My handwriting was taught by my mother."
"Then it's no wonder." For Li Zhao's mother, Kou, he also knows a little. At that time, the Kou family was also a second-class family, but it is a pity that the family withered after the war. His mother has not received any education from a family girl since she was a child, and even if she can write, she is not a big handicraft.
"I'll give you a few notebooks when you go back, you stick the paper on the wall, copy it with your wrist, and write it for a while, and the words will be powerful." There are not many famous calligraphy like Li Zhao who can choose from a font with a wide opening and closing, and he can only do his best.
When Li Zhao heard that there was still a secret to practicing calligraphy, he smiled and promised that he would definitely practice calligraphy well.
After Chen Yi and Gu Qing discussed the matters to be discussed tomorrow, they bluntly said that there was still something in the academy, so they said goodbye and left.
Li Zhao watched the old gentleman go farther and farther away with a look of worship, and asked Mrs. Qiu with a look of longing:
"Isn't this old gentleman very knowledgeable?"
"Of course."
"Then if I follow him to learn, will I be able to be an examiner in the imperial examination?"
Poof, it turns out that he hasn't forgotten about being an official.
"Ah...... It depends on how well you learn. Gu Qing joked with a smile.
Li Zhao lowered his head.
His brain was stupid, and he couldn't necessarily memorize the texts that his brother memorized after listening to them a few times.
Wan Ning is the daughter of a county official, how can he at least be a county official to be a county official to not be ashamed, right?
His brother went to private school at the age of five, and now he is twenty years old before he becomes a seven-pin pedestrian, and he is now twelve years old, plus fifteen years......
Li Zhao showed a frightened expression.
Twenty-seven years old to become a county official?
Wanning doesn't know where Lu Dao got married!!
Gu Qing didn't know what Li Zhao was doing when she was alone and startled, but she could roughly understand his mood.
"If you don't try, how do you know if you can do it?" Gu Qing cheered him up, "Maybe it's just that the gentleman in your previous private school can't teach, and if you change the famous teacher, you will make progress!" โ
Like Li Rui, isn't it just that after changing two gentlemen, he has made great progress? Even Li Ming became very outstanding under the guidance of Mr. Qi and Mr. Du.
Anyway, Mr. Qi is going to resign and go back after this year, which is a pity to think about. But thinking about it, he even left his wife and children in his hometown in order to teach Li Rui, which is also a bit cruel.
Well, when the time comes, you must wrap a heavy farewell gift.
Chen Yi went straight to Yunmeng Pavilion out of the Xinguo Mansion, Yunmeng Pavilion was not open during the day, so Chen Yi entered through the back door, so as not to be eye-catching.
As soon as Liuyun heard that Chen Yi was coming, he hurriedly came out to greet him. Wu Yuzhou lives in the deepest part of Yunmeng Pavilion, rarely shows up on weekdays, and there are many manpower trained in the back garden, so it is not convenient to appear in front of people.
"Yo, why did Chen Xianggong suddenly have the interest to come to Yunmeng Pavilion? It's not a good time to come during the day, the girls are asleep. Otherwise, I ...... Liuyun"
"Aunt Yun, you don't know what I'm here for, what do I want you to do as a girl? I'm going to find Wu Lao'er for something, is he in the cabinet today? โ
Liuyun put away his teasing expression.
โโฆโฆ You come with me. โ
When Chen Yi arrived in the back garden, Wu Yuzhou was reading a book in a house planted with a green bamboo. Seeing Chen Yi coming, Wu Yuzhou looked stunned and hurriedly got up.
"What, what's going on at the Shinkoku Mansion?"
They only meet outside on the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, and Chen Yi doesn't often come to the back garden on weekdays.
"It's not that something happened to the Shinkoku Mansion." Chen Yi skillfully turned out a bottle of wine in the chest of drawers and poured himself a glass. "The last time I came to my booksellers, I took them to the Shinkoku Mansion. Old Taijun Qiu had already agreed to their publication of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". But ......"
There was a little gloom on his face, "I think there's something wrong with Old Mrs. Qiu." โ
"Huh? What's wrong? Wu Yuzhou listened to his words and asked incredulously.
"You don't know the way, today I was in the Xinguo Mansion, and I heard that Mrs. Qiu taught the way of 'movable type printing' to several craftsmen in the book-engraving shop. Mrs. Qiu didn't even recognize the words before, let alone seen engraving, but she was able to explain the knowledge of 'movable type printing' clearly, and even how to avoid some drawbacks......"
โโฆโฆ It's as if I've done it countless times, and I'm used to it. โ
Wu Yuzhou listened to Chen Yi's detailed account of what Old Taijun Qiu said and did today, and his brows furrowed.
"The contribution of movable type printing is still above the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". If Mrs. Qiu can come up with so many things just by looking at the engraving, then her intelligence and knowledge are inevitably too terrifying. If Mrs. Qiu had such a skill, Mr. Li would not know anything, let alone reveal it to his sons. โ
"You say, could it be that someone is disguised and pretending to be Mrs. Qiu?" Chen Yi asked Wu Yuzhou in a deep voice.
"Then why do you want to pretend to be Mrs. Qiu? What's more, looking at Old Taijun Qiu's hands and neck, as well as her eyes, it is obvious that she is not disguised, where is there such a perfect disguise technique, even the family members around her can't recognize it! "The disguise technique can only be deceived for a while, not for long.
"That's right. But it's so weird......"
"Chen Yi, you're just too worried. Our task is to assist the Xinguo Mansion and protect the safety of the Xinguo Mansion, the more resourceful Mrs. Qiu is, the better it is for the Xinguo Mansion, and seeing her act on weekdays, she doesn't know how much more free and wise than before, isn't this a good thing for the Xinguo Mansion? Why bother asking? โ
Wu Yuzhou ended Chen Yi's worries with a sentence.
โโฆโฆ That's right. I shouldn't have paid too much attention to the backyard. โ
"It's good to open it. You don't come to me on weekdays, come on, come on, I still have some good daughters, don't drink that tasteless light wine, try my ......"
"What do you drink in broad daylight, daughter red!"
"Then I'm going to find a girl to sing a song?"
"I can't afford you girl, or I'll just listen to you sing!"
"Get out!"
In the Jin State Mansion, there was another person who was shocked by the Xinguo Mansion.
This person is the younger brother of Zhang Nuo, the Duke of Jin, who was once thrown off his horse and trampled on his โก, and has not been able to stand since then.
It's a pity that everyone remembers the talented and handsome Li Meng who died of poisoning, but few people still think of the former emperor's close ministers who were injured in a horse shock - Zhang Ying in the incident.
But this Zhang Ying is no longer the other Zhang Ying, this Zhang Ying, who has been paralyzed in bed, has long disappeared in the previous various self-denial and negative emotions, and what is left is only a doctor who has traveled from later generations, a modern person also named Zhang Ying.
Zhang Ying took the manuscript that his niece didn't know where to get him to pass the time, and asked her excitedly: "Su Niang!" Where did you get this book? Where is the author of the book? โ
"This is the posthumous work of the late Lao Xinguo Gong, and it was reproduced by later generations."
Zhang Suyi saw that the second uncle was so excited, and hurriedly replied to him.
I see! So that's it!
Zhang Ying thought he knew the truth. A Li Shuo is invincible, retreats bravely, supports all kinds of changes, and even has always been monogamous in the truth!
Who in the Zhang family doesn't know what's going on with that little star! Where is there such an infatuated lover in this era!
It turns out that he also crossed!
And he is an extremely cautious, not drastic reform at all, and has no usurpation โกโก ambitions.
When I wanted to come here, I was already a very mature age, without a little impatience and recklessness of a hairy boy, and I have been steadily integrating into this world, carefully using my own strength to change here.
It's a pity that the medical technology here is too poor, and I have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and I can't save it anyway.
He said that the life of this Xin Guogong is too legendary, and he only began to emerge in his twenties, and he was still from a poor family, and he has always been in place to be a Guogong, and he has always been trusted by the emperor.
Oh, my God! That's the truth! Does his wife know what to do?
He was born at the wrong time, ah no, he didn't wear it at the right time!
If he had come earlier, it would not have been for this half-dead boy, and he would have been able to follow Li Laoguo to make some achievements.
He's a ...... Belch...... Computer Science ...... of Dr.
Well, it doesn't seem like it's going to be a good thing.
But at least there are fellow countrymen, and there are always the same universal values, right?
Zhang Suyi is used to the second uncle's chatter.
Everyone in the family thinks that he has gone crazy since he was disabled, but she thinks that this second uncle is a very interesting person, and has been chatting with him since he was a child.
Thanks to the second uncle, she seems to be a little crazy, and her views on current affairs are different from all the ladies.
For example, the family she most wants to marry is the Xinguo Mansion, because the men in their family do not accept concubines, and they all respect their wives.
I heard that all the income in their family is managed by women, and they don't even divide the room when they are pregnant, not only do they not take concubines, but they don't have any connecting rooms, and they are all small servants when they are adults.
She admits that she is jealous and cannot accept sharing a husband with another woman.
At the beginning, his father told her to pretend to be sick and stay at home, in order to avoid the attempts of her in-laws to send her to the palace, and she happily accepted it. She couldn't stand a few concubines, and if she competed with countless women for favor, she would definitely feel dirty.
There is also the fact that she always secretly hides in the second uncle's room to read books that she shouldn't read. History books, war strategies, strange novels, fairy tales, and even their family's newspapers.
Every time, it is under the name of "the second uncle wants to see it, I will bring it to him".
She thought she would be unhappy in the future. Because when you are out of step with the entire world, you must either change this world or change yourself.
She is a woman, she can't change the world, and she doesn't want to change herself.
It is much easier to accept that the world is wrong than to deny one's own beliefs.
So she could only hide herself carefully.
But even so, she didn't regret listening to her second uncle say those bizarre views. Maybe only a madman would say these things, but she felt that these things made a lot of sense and opened a new door for her.
For example, the family will always die out, because the emperor will always centralize power and will not allow such an existence.
For example, the imperial examination will create a situation of eclectic talent reduction, and the influence of the clan in controlling the imperial court will become smaller and smaller. The restoration of the Jiupin Zhongzheng system is a historical regression, and society and the world will not allow historical regression to happen, because the productive forces are progressing or something.
She also draws a type of drawing called a "sketch". This kind of painting seems to be only the crazy second uncle. The second uncle taught her to draw the topography of mountains and rivers, portraits of people, and taught her how to draw the image of that person from other people's descriptions.
She saved a lot of such paintings, all of which were in the dark room in the second uncle's house.
She felt that if she was a man, it would be enough for her to go to the Ministry of Criminal Affairs as an official specializing in shadow graphics.
At this time, Zhang Yingzheng was immersed in "Senior, why are you dead!" In remorse.
It's miserable enough for him to be an ancient disabled person, not to mention being considered a madman.
As soon as he wore it, he found that this body had a wife, and his wife had not yet given birth to a child. This parallel world is still very tolerant of "Heli", he is half paralyzed, naturally he doesn't even have the ability to have children, not to mention that he really can't accept to occupy other people's wives, so he lets his wife and leave home.
Only in this way, he is even more lonely and helpless.
If it weren't for the fact that this little girl named Zhang Suyi often came to chat with him or something, he would have been schizophrenic and really crazy. For this little girl, he was almost thirty years old when he wore it, and he really treated her as a junior in the family, except for his own computer knowledge, he couldn't teach her, he taught everything he could.
Just for a girl's family to survive in the back house.
"Second uncle, my mother gave my life book box to my father." Zhang Suyi sat in the wheelchair in front of Zhang Ying's bed, and complained to the second uncle in a somewhat depressed manner: "My mother didn't tell me, she promised me someone." โ
"Huh? Shouldn't the family have all the six rites? Zhang Ying asked in disbelief.
"That's why I feel sad. I had long thought that one day I would be married. I am the daughter of the Zhang family, and I grew up enjoying the glory and wealth of the Zhang family, so I am naturally ready for this day. But my grandfather had just passed away, and my family secretly announced my marriage, even though I was a granddaughter, it was too ......."
"Maybe it's just to take your eight characters and unite with others, there is filial piety in the house, why do you have to wait for another three years." Zhang Ying was actually most worried about what to do if this little girl got married at the age of fifteen or sixteen a few years ago.
The chance of dystocia in this era is so great, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and her figure can never be called "strong", he is really afraid that something will happen.
Now it's okay, although it's not kind to think so, but thanks to the blessing of the old man, the little girl will have to wait another three years at the earliest to get married, get married at the age of eighteen, and have a child at the age of nineteen, how to say that the body and mind are mature.
Hey, he's really holding a man's body and a woman's heart.
Belch...... It doesn't seem like even a man.
Thinking about it like this, Zhang Ying didn't even feel the mood to complain about himself.
"Second uncle, who do you think I will marry? I am the daughter of the Zhang family, so it is impossible to marry low. There are only a few families in Da Chu that are comparable to my family, except for the Jiang family, the Liu family, and the Qi family, there are only a few princes left. My dad made it clear that he wouldn't marry me into the royal ......"
"I heard that there is an eldest son of the Qi family who is now a sheren and has not yet married a wife, is it the one?" Zhang Suyi guessed with her cheeks back, and when she talked about her marriage, she was not shy at all.
"You can marry anyone, just don't marry the Jiang family. Your mother is from the Jiang family, do you remember what I told you? If close relatives marry, there is a high probability of giving birth to a deformed child, and it is easy to give birth to stupid people. Zhang Ying sighed.
"Marriage is the order of parents, and the words of the matchmaker, where can I be the decide." Zhang Suyi saw that the second uncle was a little worried about him, and smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I remember your words......"
"Men love beautiful women, and men are not obligated to see your beautiful heart through your sloppy appearance. There are no ugly women in this world, only lazy women, so I have to keep myself the most beautiful in front of people at all times, waiting to make my future husband amazing. โ
"After getting married, treat each other with true feelings, whether it is because of marriage or not, because true love may not necessarily be able to get true love, but you don't even give true love, how can you ask others to give you true heart?"
"If the man I marry is too scumbag, I will treat him as an official, treat myself as a subordinate official, only do my duty, and don't have to trust my sincerity. Loving yourself and living the life you want is the real ......"
Zhang Ying saw that Zhang Suyi had memorized all the words he had nagged in the past, and he was also very relieved.
This theory is a little ahead of its time, but ancient women don't seem to know the truth of "living for yourself", and some people live very depressed. He can't be sure that the little girl will marry a good husband in the future, but with her family background and this beautiful appearance, it is not difficult to get her husband's love.
Her parents really loved him, there was no doubt about that. They will definitely not find her a Zhang San, Li Si Wang Er Mazi, or an ugly and immoral person, at least this is much better than most women in this world.
Even if you are too scummy, it is better to be in a failed relationship, to be your own housewife with peace of mind, and to protect yourself than to be a resentful woman.
Hmph, he won't tell anyone that the best thing he plays in all his games is "Bishoujo Dream Works".
He played all the endings, all the versions!
Even if you are a dead otaku, you can have an adventure one day!
Well, it's just that this adventure is a little too aggrieved.
was so aggrieved that he was ready for Zhang Suyi to get married, and after no one spoke, he burned charcoal and went home.
- Back to my hometown.
"Second uncle, why were you so surprised by this "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" just now?" Zhang Suyi saw that the topic became more and more sad, and quickly diverged.
Zhang Ying naturally wouldn't say that he had watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" since he was a child, and he didn't know how many times he watched the TV series, but he still boasted: "
"It's a strange book, I'll take a look...... Hey, it's quite a complete point of view! Who made these annotations? โ
Zhang Suyi knew that what her brother told her, and said honestly: "This book came out of the hands of students studying in the Xinguo Mansion, and I think it should be the annotation of Li Laoguo Gong or the late Li Shizi." โ
"There are a lot of novel and advanced ideas here, and it seems that Li Meng's ability to smile at the court is really not fake. Also, there is such a special daddy......"
I'm sorry, but the second best game he played, it's the glorious Three Kingdoms series!
"Come on, come on, Su Yi, I'll tell you in detail about this "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" ......"
Zhang Ying smiled kindly at his niece.
Otherwise, when I'm done, I'll talk to her about Dream of Red Mansions? โ
The otaku Zhang Ying grinned a lewd smile.
The "love development" game "Dream of Red Mansions", I also played it well!
Hey, hey.
The author has something to say: don't think crookedly, people just said that he learned about the book of Dream of Red Mansions by playing the game of Dream of Red Mansions. It's not to teach the little girl what to "fall in love".
Without a small theater, I think it's scary enough.
