After everything was agreed, everyone dispersed, and when he went out of the hall door, Tuoba Shen remembered that he had not seen Liu Wenyuan since returning to the museum, and asked casually, only to know that Liu Wenyuan went out early this morning and did not return at noon. Tuoba Shen didn't say anything more, he was not Liu Wenyuan's parent, he was just entrusted to take care of him, as long as he didn't make trouble in Jiankang and embarrassed himself.

Although Liu Wenyuan has been with him for several months, he has never been able to integrate into their big group. may be because of his own withdrawn nature, or it may be that Li Biao, Zheng Daozhao and others have no intention of dealing with a person who does not serve in the court, so Liu Wenyuan has always been alone, acting alone, except for showing up every day and saying a few words, there is rarely a time to get together with Tuoba Shen and others. Because the sense of existence is too low, Zheng Daozhao even forgot about the last time he gave the maid, and later Tuoba Shen made up for it.

When I returned to the back house, I saw Mrs. Chen and a few maidservants washing clothes by the well, and Xiao Chen Qingzhi was by the window.

Speaking of which, Tuoba Shen has read more than his peers in this year. Many of the same age generally read a few Confucian books such as the Analects of the Spring and Autumn Period, and they are all assisted by parents to read intensively, and the various famous annotations in a book are several times more than ten times more than the content of the book, and the reading ability of children is limited, and they can't read a few books all year round.

Of course, this is an ordinary child, except for a genius boy, Tuoba Shen, a fake genius, can still be among the ranks of geniuses by virtue of experience.

When Mrs. Chen and the others heard the footsteps, they saw that it was Tuoba Shen, so they all put down what they were doing and got up to salute.

Tuoba Shen nodded, looked at Chen Qingzhi by the window, and said, "Madam, is Ling Lang good at studying?" What kind of book is this? ”

"I am reading the Analects, but fortunately, I have His Royal Highness hand-written the book, which saves the concubine a lot of energy." Mrs. Chen looked at Aiko, who was reading intently in front of the window, and said.

Tuoba Shen smiled embarrassedly and said: "Madame is too prestigious, I have always looked at its general outline, do not seek to understand much, and I don't know much about the chapters and sentences, this Analect is just a manuscript, some of the experience is written casually, there is nothing lean. I happened to be going to Jiankang City tomorrow to have a look, I heard that there are classics sold in the city, if you find a good book, you can buy it and give it to Ling Lang. ”

When Chen Qingzhi's mother and son came to the library, they only brought some clothes and the like, and naturally there were no books, so Tuoba Shen lent a few of his books to Mrs. Chen and let Chen Qingzhi use them first. The books were all manuscripts of Tuoba Shen, and the commentaries in them were written by himself, both in terms of his own content and those of famous writers of the past dynasties.

However, because the Confucian scriptures since the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty have been divided into two factions because of the problem of ancient and modern texts, these people interpret the classics indiscriminately for the benefit of the school, and even the books of Zheng Kangcheng, who is known as a collection of ancient and modern texts, are far-fetched. In this way, Tuoba Shen annotated a book of his own Analects. Since it is his own book, there are inevitably some things in it that do not fit the ideas of this era, and it is not good to put it in the hands of others for a long time, after all, Chen Qingzhi is a person of this era, if he is enlightened into an outlier, I am afraid that he will be mistaken.

"Concubine, thank you, Your Highness" Mrs. Chen hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and bowed

"It's easy to do left and right. There is something to bother Madame Laureate. ”

Mrs. Chen had a slight doubt on her face, and then said: "Your Highness has something to order, so why bother." ”

In Mrs. Chen's opinion, Tuoba Shen was really too polite to her, and he could even be said to be respectful to her words and deeds on weekdays. These days, she has been wondering about this matter from time to time, but she can't find the reason, she claims that her mother and son are here alone, have nothing, and there is no place worthy of coveting others, and suddenly receive this kind of courtesy, and she can't help but feel a little uneasy. Now when I heard Tuoba Shen say that she had something to ask her to help, I couldn't help but wonder.

"I don't have any official business in the next few days, so I want to go to Jiankang and visit inside and outside. It's just that I, as a guest from the north, are not familiar with the humanistic taboos of Jiankang, so I want to ask my wife to be a tour guide. ”

Mrs. Chen was relieved and said, "Obey the orders of His Highness." ”

"Okay, Mrs. can buy some cloth for Ling Lang tomorrow, and make some clothes out of silk, all of which will be put out in the public account to reward Mrs. for her hard work."

I've been busy for seven days in Jiankang, and now I can finally take a breather. There is no news about Cui Huijing's matter yet, and seeing that Xiao Zhen didn't take Liu Jun's move today, it seems that he has no plans to turn his face, and it is useless to be in a hurry here, it is better to relax tomorrow.

This is the land of gold dust of the Six Dynasties in history, the city of Nanjing at the end of the fourth century! Since I have the opportunity to come once, it would be a great pity not to take a closer look at the cultural scenery here and see the geography and customs.

I'm the dividing line

After returning to the dormitory, Tuoba Shen washed his hands, sat on the Hu bed, Lu Guang helped Yan Mo, sealed the record of today's experience, looked at it and saw that there was still some time, opened the book and read again, writing reading notes while reading.

Time passed little by little with the sound of flipping through from time to time. Tuoba was so engrossed in reading and writing that an hour had passed unconsciously, until he felt a little uncomfortable in his neck, so he put down his pen, pressed the paperweight on the book, and walked by the window, but saw the trees in the corner of the wall in the distance and the weeds on the terracotta tiles on the top of the wall swaying from time to time, and it turned out that the wind had risen.

When I walked out of the room, I looked up at the sky under the porch, and saw that it was still a cloudless blue sky in the morning, and now there were dragon scale clouds, and even the sun was gently obscured.

This ghost weather is worthy of the strange and impermanent Xiaoice River period, and I don't know if when I return to Pingcheng, I will encounter frost and fog or even heavy snow!

Tuoba Shen paced under the porch for a while, and was about to enter the room again, when he heard a burst of rapid footsteps outside, sounding more than one or two people.

But it was Lu Guang, Liu Teng in front, Li Biao, Zheng Daozhao, and Yu Zhong in the back.

"Your Highness, our people are back, this is a reply from His Royal Highness the King of Rencheng." Yu Zhong hurriedly stepped forward, presented the sealed brocade box in his hand, and said.

Tuoba Shen hurriedly took the brocade box, plus three small keys, turned around and returned to the room, ordered Lu Guang Liu Teng to light up two lamps, and then pried open the box with BS, only to see that there was a small triangular box inside, and a small lock was added on each side, after taking out the small box, he opened the three small locks on the brocade box against the marked key, took out the sealing paper inside, checked the seal on the sealing paper, and saw that it was printed with "Great Wei Xuzhou Thorn History" and "Rencheng Wang Seal", to confirm that there was no mistake, only to tear the seal open, take out the letter, I watched it.

Li Biao and the others didn't say a word on the side, they all looked at Tuoba Shen, only to see that Tuoba Shen's face was serious first, and then he showed joy, and they all wanted to know what was said in the letter.

Tuoba Shen read the letter, folded it and put it in his sleeve, and then motioned to Lu Guang and Liu Teng to guard outside the room.

"Your Highness, what did His Royal Highness the King of Rencheng say in the letter?" Li Biao saw Lu Guang and the others come out of the room, and hurriedly asked

"In addition to saying that he would transfer the seal on my behalf, there are two main things in Uncle Rencheng's letter. First, he secretly sent someone to cross the river, Jiankang has the hidden secret room of this dynasty, and the people of the uncle will contact them, there is a token in this box, as long as the token is combined, you can get the help of the secret room of this dynasty. ”

Speaking of this, Tuoba Shen picked up the knife again and pried open the base of the small box, only to see that there were two tokens in it, one on the front was a thumb-sized winged bat, and the other was a cross-legged Manjushri Bodhisattva on the front.

"There is one more thing, in addition to the secret room, the uncle also said that this dynasty still has a dead room in the Southern Dynasty, and he is serving as the temple master in Changgan Temple, and you can go to him in an emergency."

"However, this person has a close relationship with many Southern Dynasty powers, so if it is not until the last moment, it is better not to contact him."

When Li Biao and the others heard this, they couldn't help but show joy on their faces. These people can really be said to have fallen from heaven for them now, and with these shadows, they will be more sure to do things. After all, no one expected that there would be such a thing as Cui Huijing before coming, which caused a little shortage of manpower. Now that the king of Rencheng has just sent people, it seems that it is really providential!

"In this way, I will go to the Cichanggan Temple tomorrow and first agree with those secrets."

"Your Highness, let's let the lower officials go, right?" Li Biao said

Tuoba Shen shook his head and said, "No, this matter is too important, so I'd better go myself." ”
