Chapter 12 Since I first met Xu Lang

The next morning, the red sun had just risen, and the unusually sultry heat at the beginning of summer and autumn gave people a disadvantage. Xu You got dressed under the service of the winter solstice, walked to the door and squinted, feeling the blazing sun, and sighed: "I hope Cui Yuanxiu is not as annoying as the sky in Jinling......"

"I just let Xiaolang say it!" Dong Zhi said with a smile: "Cui Yuanxiu was born in the Cui clan of Qinghe, but he has a strange temperament, often loves to beat and scold the children of the door, loves fine wine, loves leaf play, gambles day and night, wanders like a wreck, and is very reckless!" ”

"No surprise!" Xu You stood with his hands in his hands and said, "In addition to the Yuan family, where are there authentic Confucian scholars now?" have all been led astray by the demagogic Taoism of metaphysics. ”

Preparing gifts, Xu You led Fang Si Niancang and others to Nitang by boat on the winter solstice of the Qingming Dynasty. Ni Tang is located in the north side of Fangshan Dai in the southeast of Jiankang, and the Ni family once built a pond here in the time of Sun Wu, so it was named. To be precise, Nitang has been far away from the urban circle of the capital, but because the geographical location of Fangshan is very important, and there have been many celebrity hermits living here since ancient times, so it maintains basic prosperity and prosperity, and Jinling belongs to the nepotism of both prosperity and loss.

When I arrived at Cui's Mansion in Nitang, I learned that Cui Yuanxiu set off yesterday and went to the mansion in Qingxili, and more than 20 disciples also served with him. It is said that it was because the summer was too late this year, and I couldn't stand the stuffiness and mosquito bites in Nitang, so I went to Qingxi to cool off.

Looking for people is not met, although it is disappointing, but it can't be in a hurry, Xu You is safe when he comes, he simply climbs Fangshan to visit the mountain scenery, and then returns to Changganli It is already dusk, so he has to stop and wait until tomorrow to visit Cui Yuanxiu in Qingxi.

Qingxili is located in the east of Taicheng, after crossing to the south, the Chinese gather in Jinling, the original place can not live so many people, so mobilize 100,000 people to spend three months to open up Qingxili as a place to live, after a hundred years of development, here officials and nobles gather, is a veritable "rich area" in Jinling.

Along the way, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Qinhuai River, known as "the area of the smoke and moon of the six dynasties, the place where the gold powder gathers", as far as the eye can see, the silk curtain of the window, the bead curtain of ten miles, the painting boat Xiao drum, day and night. Going upstream, he arrived in Qingxi after a while, and came to Cui Yuanxiu's house, Cang stepped forward to knock on the door, and waited for dozens of breaths before someone hurriedly came to open the door.

Dao Ming's intentions, the boy looked arrogant, and said, "Go back, my master will no longer accept new disciples since March!" ”

Xu You smiled and said, "Please give a word to the little brother, maybe the Cui Guild will change its mind." ”

The boy looked at Xu You from the corner of his eye, a hint of disdain appeared on his lips, and he said sarcastically: "There are so many people who come to the door every day, but not all cats and dogs can come in!" I advise Lang Jun not to bother and leave early! ”

Hearing this, Cang was furious, and his palm, the size of a fan, grabbed the placket of the boy's clothes, and said, "Do you know who you are in front of?" If you dare to spit foul language, watch your head! ”

The boy was not panicked, his hands were put into his sleeves, and he let Cang hang his body in the air, and said lightly: "Look at your clothes, you are not from Jinling, and your conversation and demeanor are not from a famous family - even if you are a scholar, I guess it is in the lower grade, and it is not worth mentioning." Oh, I want to ask, who dared to come to Qinghe Cui's mansion to spread wild, who gave you the guts? ”

From the small to the big, it can be seen that Cui Yuanxiu does have some ability, and he can adjust the boy so neatly, but it also confirms what Dong Solstice said from another aspect, this person has a bad temperament, and can even be called violent.

Qinghe Cui's family, in the Spring and Autumn Period, was the secretary of Qi State, after the two Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, it was already the first high gate in the world by the time of Wei. After the Wuhu Rebellion, most of the children of the Cui family stayed in the Northern Wei Dynasty and became important ministers of the Yuan family, such as Cui Boyu, the current doctor of Zuo Guanglu, who won the trust of Yuan Yu. And there is a small part of the Nandu Chu State, although there are few people and they are declining, and they are no longer in the glory of the past, and they cannot be compared with the four top gate valves of Liu, Yu, Yuan, and Xiao, but the reputation of the Qinghe Cui family is still there, and no one dares to underestimate it.

"Heaven, don't be rude!"

Xu You spoke, pressed his temperament, let go and slammed the boy to the ground, his copper bell-like eyes seemed to be on fire. The boy straightened his clothes and snorted coldly: "Hurry up, if you make trouble again, I will report to the official!" ”

After saying that, he slammed the door shut, and the courtyard was so full of forests that he couldn't even enter the door. Xu You motioned for the winter solstice to knock on the door again, and after half a ring, it was still the boy, and he said angrily: "What knock?" What about hypnotics? You're still going to cheat, aren't you? I'm really going to report to the police......"

"Little brother Mo is angry, this is a letter of recommendation from Yuan Wei of Jinling, please forward it to Cui Gong. If Cui Gong is still missing, we will leave immediately, and we will not disturb the purity of your mansion. ”

"Yuan Wei?" The boy obviously heard Yuan Wei's name, took the letterhead with suspicion, saw the inscription on it, hesitated, and said, "Okay, I'll try, what about your prayer post?" ”

I thought that with Yuan Wei's letter, I saw Cui Yuanxiu ten out of ten and nine stable, but I didn't expect to wait for a pillar of incense, the boy came out and threw the letter and the prayer post back, and said: "The master said, Yuan Lao Pifu is treacherous, and he can't wait to eat his flesh raw, and he will not accept anyone he recommends!" ”

Bang, the door was closed, and this time it couldn't be knocked open no matter what. Everyone was dumbfounded, and it took a while to hear Xu You's smile and say, "Wonderful! ”

Dong Solstice couldn't help but ask, "Isn't Xiaolang angry?" ”

Xu You smiled: "Why be angry? It is said that Yuan Wei and Cui Yuanxiu are incomversible to each other, but looking at today's situation, I am afraid that it will be false. We came to the door with letters of recommendation from other people's enemies, and if we were not beaten, our ancestors blessed us......"

"What kind of medicine is Yuan Zuojun selling in the gourd?"

The winter solstice was quite stupid, Yuan Wei, who Yuan Jie recommended to Xu You, swore and patted his chest as a guarantee, but it turned out to be like this, it was really angry and helpless.

"Lang Jun, what should we do next?" Qingming is worried that Xu You stayed in Jinling in the name of studying "Shangshu", if Cui Yuanxiu's mansion door could not be opened, what other reason should be changed?

Liu Bei looked at the thatched house three times before he asked Wolong to go out of the mountain. If you can't do it today, you can come back tomorrow! ”

Winter Solstice puffed up and said: "How can Cui Yuanxiu compare to Zhuge Liang......"

"We can't compare to Uncle Liu Huang, people are under the eaves, bow your head for the time being, it doesn't hurt!" Xu You turned around and said, "Let's go, go and walk around, don't let down the beautiful scenery of Qinhuai in early autumn!" ”

For three days in a row, Xu You came to the door every day to ask to see him, but he kept closed. I don't know who spread the news, but since the fourth day, there have been a lot of people gathered outside the door of Cui's mansion, most of them are girls, vying to see Xu You's appearance.

"Is this the Nightlight? Sure enough, the text is like a person, and the warmth is like jade......"

"Oh, that's true, under the sunshine, it's really Yurun!"

"There are few people in Jiangdong who are as tall as him, but they don't look stout, but they are as tall as pines, and the walls stand thousands of times, which is unforgettable at first sight."

"Only such a divine show can I write the vast atmosphere of the blue sky and the moon, and I can write the sad sigh of the peach blossoms on the human face."

"Nine Bucket Talents, Nine Bucket Talents."

"When I see Xu Langjun today, I know what it means to be a person......

"Little lady Sichun, go back and let your parents come to propose."

"Thousands of girls inside and outside Qingxi, nine times out of ten, those who think of spring, where is my turn to get what I want?"

"People know themselves, but you have realized! Pity me for my own countenance, and I haven't given up......"

"Phew, you shameless!"

Whispering around, men obeyed, women admired, Xu You was not moved by foreign objects, standing three feet in front of the door, looking at his nose and nose, waiting for Cui Yuanxiu's news. From morning to noon, from noon to night, the door is always closed, even the onlookers know that today is a futile return, sighs, Xu You respectfully saluted, and then flew with long sleeves, calmly and freely left.

Back in Changganli, the patience of the winter solstice has reached the limit, and said: "Cui Yuanxiu doesn't know what to do, we don't need to spend it with him, there is no shortage of Confucians in Jinling, without Cui Yuanxiu, is it possible that he can't learn "Shangshu"?" ”

Qingming shook his head and said, "It's hard to ride a tiger!" I don't know who released the rumors, now everyone knows that Lang Jun wants to worship Cui Yuanxiu as a teacher, if he gives up halfway, I'm afraid others will not accept it......"

The implication is that if Cui Yuanxiu doesn't want a disciple, if other great Confucians accept it, wouldn't it show that he is inferior to others? Human nature is a very complicated thing, and Xu You wrote "Shangshu Justice", no matter how you can't avoid Cui Yuanxiu, the current situation, even if you know that the head is bleeding, you can only go to the dark one way.

"It's been four days, Xiaolang has been standing for three or four hours every day, such a sultry day, if someone else is changed, he has to get sick." The more she talked about the winter solstice, the more angry she became, she was originally mean, and she was slightly restrained with Xu Youcai, which would be angry, and her mouth was unforgiving, and said: "Cui Yuanxiu has no heart, and he is a fierce person, even if he worships him, he can't ask for the true meaning of Shangshu, so it's better to find another way......

"Worship Cui Yuanxiu's disciples, just to accommodate Jinling, so as not to attract suspicion from all sides, and studying Shangshu is a bonus. Qingming is right, it's hard to ride a tiger, and now, Cui's mansion, I can't enter. ”

Xu You was promoted to the rank of little grandmaster, if he didn't suffer serious internal injuries, he wouldn't have been tormented by illness in his leisure, but only a few people knew about the recovery of his martial arts, and if it was speculated according to common sense, it was time to show fatigue.

"Winter solstice, let Yang Shun go to the market to find a good craftsman to make a group fan, I want to make a gadget."

Another day, as soon as Xu You arrived in Qingxi, there were many people gathered along the way, and the bold girl even approached to stuff sachets and letterheads into his arms, as well as melons, fruits, vegetables and vegetables.

Fortunately, Xu You was not too embarrassed, and when he arrived at the gate of the mansion, he stood still and waited again. At noon, the sun was shining, and there were faint sweat stains on his body, he reached into his arms, took a folding fan out, waved it very chicly, and shook it gently.

The appearance of folding fans should be the earliest in the Song Dynasty, the Han and Tang dynasties are based on the group fan as the main form, or round or square or plum blossom or sunflower, like this kind of folding fan shape has never been available.

At that time, the wind is in the sky, the water is on the side, the waves are sparkling, the willow leaves are like silk, Xu You is wrapped in a white military suit, the eyebrows are sparse, the neck is as long as a goose, and the bones are as beautiful as a crane, just like a fairy man.

Especially the folding fan, as if a stroke of genius, in vain distinguishes him from those celebrities who like to hold the tail and wear robes, whether it is Jinling or Jiangdong, there is no other semicolon.

Just when everyone was fascinated by Xu Youfengshen and were fascinated, they saw him suddenly bend his knees, show a painful face, and fall to the ground softly!

The exclamation suddenly resounded through the clear stream, and Cang hurriedly stepped forward to pick up Xu You, saying that the lord was in the middle, which means heat stroke, and urgently needed to seek medical treatment, and then separated from the crowd like a wall, and left quickly.

That night, there were countless people in Jinling City who couldn't sleep for Xu You, and it was rumored that the tears of the girl shed because of his illness made the Qinhuai River rise by three inches. I don't know who wrote a poem:

The wind sends the autumn lotus full of fragrance, and the moon is sparse and the night is cool.

Since I saw Xu Lang, I have been completely lovesick.
