Lu Cheng and Wang Xueyuan sat in Shen Yi's car. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

This carriage is spacious and luxurious, with pine carriages and delicately carved wall panels, and there are not only soft collapses in the carriage, but also a few brocade piers and a small table, as long as you prepare enough things before departure, you can play chess and drink tea on the road.

In addition, there are some mezzanine in the lower half of the wall panel on both sides, and there are musical instruments, chess and cards, wine, candied fruit and other things in the mezzanine, which already has the function of an RV, even if you go out for a long distance, you will not feel bored.

Lu Cheng held a cup of freshly brewed tea in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion in his heart: "This rich boy brother just enjoys it!" ”

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting was held in Futai.

Blowing platform, there was originally an earthen platform, according to legend, the musician Shi Kuang played ancient music here in the Spring and Autumn Period, so it has this name.

Lu Cheng knew that this ancient blowing platform was also the Yuwangtai of later generations, but at this time it was the Hongzhi period, "Yu Temple" had not yet been built, and there was no name of "Yuwangtai", so people only called it Blowing Terrace.

However, the poetry meeting was held in the evening, Lu Cheng and others took a carriage, and it only took an hour on the road, and they arrived at Fucheng just after the unitary hour.

Previously, Lu Cheng had made an appointment with Zuo Guoji and the others to visit Wu Tixue.

In the past two months, Wu Tixue has gone to various places in the south of He1, presided over the college examination of the eight prefectures that have been affiliated to the state, and has just returned to Fucheng in the past two days.

In fact, if one government and one government go to take the exam, Wu Tixue will have to stay in each place for eight days to complete a college exam. If you finish all the eight mansions, plus the time spent on the road, it will take two and a half months to complete the test.

But not every prefecture is like a big mansion like Kaifeng Mansion, there are so many states and counties, and some small prefectures naturally do not have as many candidates as Kaifeng Mansion.

In two small neighboring prefectures like Zhangde Mansion and Weihui Mansion, Wu Tixue adopted the method of "hanging examination", that is, the candidates from these two prefectures were gathered in one place to take the exam, which would be more convenient.

As a matter of learning the Tao, Wu Tixue should also participate in the evening poetry meeting, and it can also be seen at the poetry meeting. However, Lu Cheng felt that it was better to visit in person, and he could also show his sincerity.

Speaking of which, Wu Tixue ordered his own case, and he can be regarded as his protΓ©gΓ©.

Of course, the children's examination is only a small test, and such a teacher-student relationship is actually not as important as the township examination and the general examination.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is also a relatively grand festival at this time, although the liveliness is not as good as the Shangyuan Festival, but it is not much worse. The carriage was driving on the street, Lu Cheng lifted the curtain from the carriage and looked out, and saw that the lights on both sides had already been lit up, and there were many more people and cars on the street than usual, as if they were celebrating the New Year.

When they were about to reach the Yamen of Tixue Road, the car slowly stopped, and Lu Cheng and the others got out of the car and walked towards the gate.

When Menzi saw these scholars coming, he immediately showed an impatient look on his face, and waved his hand as if chasing flies: "Let's go, hurry up, the great master said that he would not see any guests today." ”

Li Lian and Zuo Guoji have actually been here, and they have eaten behind closed doors.

There's no way, Wu Tixue rarely even meets students, let alone children like them?

However, the two of them believe that the Grand Master will definitely meet Lu Cheng, the head of Kaifeng Mansion, and they will be able to follow suit.

"This big brother, I will drive you in and spread the news, and it will be said that Lu Cheng, a student member of the mansion, has come to ask to see the great grandmaster." Lu Cheng said and handed over the famous thorn.

"You're the head of the Lu case?"

Menzi glanced at Lu Cheng with some suspicion, and after seeing the famous thorn, he immediately turned around and went in to pass the word.

After a while, he turned around and came out and led Lu Cheng and the others in.

As soon as he saw Lu Cheng, Wu Tixue suddenly stood up from the chair and said with a smile: "It turned out to be you!" ”

Lu Cheng and the others were all stunned, and some of them didn't know the situation.

I saw Wu Tixue laugh and said, "After the test of the day, I saw you at the gate of the Gongyuan. Unexpectedly, you are Lu Cheng! ”

Only then did Lu Cheng understand that he dared to play Zhao Yuhu that day, so that the great grandmaster could see it.

Wu Tixue has always liked to keep a straight face, but when facing Lu Cheng and the others at this moment, it is completely different, his face is very kind, and he speaks kindly.

Only then did Lu Cheng and the others know that the original Great Grandmaster still had such a side.

Wu Tixue's term of office has expired this year and he will leave office soon. The new Tixue should also be able to arrive in Kaifeng in these days.

Under inquiry, Lu Cheng knew that Wu Tixue planned to leave Kaifeng tomorrow, and he was busy saying that he was going to see him off, but he didn't want Wu Tixue to say that it was not necessary, but he just warned him to concentrate on learning and not slack off.

From the contact, Lu Cheng can also see that Wu Tixue's temperament is indeed too straightforward, and it is no wonder that he will offend so many people in the officialdom. Another thing is that he is rigorous in his studies, and he treats candidates too harshly, and refuses to relax his standards even for a small college exam, and many candidates who fail to make the list will naturally complain about him.

If it weren't for this, a great master like him, who had been a great master of learning for nine years, had been in Kaifeng Mansion for three years, how could a small government magistrate dare to challenge his authority?

However, Lu Cheng also knows that Wu Tixue has been in the officialdom for many years, and it is impossible not to understand this, and his temperament has not changed at all over the years, so it can only be attributed to one reason.

If you can't do it, you can't do it!

Some people may think that such a person is too stupid and it is difficult to get promoted.

But Lu Cheng feels that such a person is worthy of his admiration. Even if he becomes an official in the future and can't be like him, it doesn't prevent him from admiring him.

At this time, it was not early, and it would not be long before the meal was reached, Lu Cheng didn't dare to let Wu Tixue keep him for dinner, so he just sat down for a while, then got up and left.

After coming out of the Yamen of Tixue Dao, several people first found a restaurant and asked for a private room to eat.

The poetry will start at the end of the day, but Lu Cheng and the others are not in a hurry.

According to the habit of previous years, there were no people who went too early, and it would take half an hour for the blowing stage to be really lively. It's not far from the blowing platform, just a few moments away.

After they were full of wine and food, they left for the blowing platform.

Several people were riding in a carriage, and it was difficult to pass when they were about to reach the blowing platform, and the street in front of them was crowded with people, and the car could not pass at all, and the sound of gongs and drums was endless.

Lu Cheng and the others had no choice but to get out of the car and walk forward.

Wang Xueyuan rarely has the opportunity to come to Fucheng to play, and there are too many people today, Lu Cheng was worried that he would lose her, so he naturally took her hand and walked forward.

Let him hold him like this, Wang Xueyuan is not very used to it. She glanced at Lu Cheng secretly, and hurriedly lowered her head.

At this moment, Wang Xueyuan only felt that her heart was beating very hard, her cheeks were as hot as fire, and her palms were constantly sweating.

Lu Cheng didn't notice this. He led Wang Xueyuan to squeeze in the crowd, and after walking forward for a while, he saw a dragon and lion dance in front of him, no wonder there were so many people gathered around to join in the fun.

However, this is the excitement of ordinary people, and for scholars like Lu Cheng and them, the blowing stage of the poetry club is the place where they should go.
