Wei Renpu led a group of middle-aged and elderly people to sit on the high-rise building.

The upstairs of Fengle Building is not like the restaurant of later generations, separated by a screen, even if it is a single room, it is the treatment of the second floor, and it will not stuff people into the room, and the entire fourth floor is a total of three or five private rooms, all of which are separated from the line of sight by green potted plants, strange stones and other things, sitting in it, not looking out of the window and thinking that it is in which high-end city garden.

Sun Yue was nervous when he saw the order in which everyone was seated, because Wei Renpu was not sitting in the first place, the two half-grown old men were sitting taller than him, and this identity was already about to come out.

Sure enough, I heard Wei Renpu introduce: "Boy, I will introduce you to the two elders, this is Fan Xianggong, this is Wang Pu Wang Xianggong." ”

Sun Yue naturally hurriedly gave a salute, Fan Zhen and Wang Pu obviously knew that he followed Wei Renpu to learn the scriptures but did not have the name of master and apprentice, so they casually compared a little knowledge, so they praised him fiercely.

Fan Zhen sighed: "Sure enough, it is a good offspring, this year's official family is going to take the Tongju exam, if you want to come, there must be a place for you?" ”

Sun Yue said playfully: "It's not your public who has written the question yet, otherwise you tell me what you plan to do, and I will memorize it to take the test?" ”

The crowd laughed when they heard this, but they didn't take it seriously.

Now, the power of the Song Dynasty has been completely held in the hands of Zhao Pu, especially after the Chinese New Year this year, they have risen to the rank on the original basis, and now they are all first-class officials, regardless of which dynasty and which generation, the first-class officials are either powerful ministers who can abolish the emperor at any time, or they are idle positions that can't be managed by bullshit, it is obvious that this goods belong to the latter, and they are one of his favorite guests in Fengle Building, Sun Yue naturally wants to fool them into getting a membership card.

Wei Renpu still said with a blank face: "Boy, your father has supported such a big business and gave up the imperial examination, so that you can study hard and get ahead in the future, don't be overly addicted to this copper-smelling thing, give up the book, and give up the Liutao that I told you yesterday, can you review?" ”

Sun Yue's face was bitter, and he said again and again: "I have studied it, I went home and watched it twice last night before I fell asleep." ”

Wei Renpu said unhappily: "I have only seen it twice, it is clear that I have not worked hard, you don't have to think that it is not difficult for Tongju to relax your study, and you don't want to think that the knowledge of the imperial examination will be abandoned, I have been an official for 30 years, and I have seen a lot of amazing and brilliant people, but the people who can really become great are all those who are willing to work down, diligent and studious, go, you don't need to say hello, go back and copy Liutao ten times, and send it to my house tomorrow." ”

Sun Yue's face was bitter when he heard this, it seemed that he was going to fight at night again tonight, so he hurriedly said goodbye to the big guys, and after chatting for a while, he might not know what to copy.

Wei Renpu has been completely upholstered since he was sprayed by him that day, and the disease that couldn't be cured before is almost healed now, and he can also give a good face when he sees Zhao Kuangyin, after all, he is only in his early fifties this year, and he is far from being really old, as long as he doesn't want to die, the king of Youdu can't accept him for a while.

But Sun Yue was trained by him miserably, especially after he was promoted to the right servant of Shangshu, this position of power minister in the Tang Dynasty has now completely become a name, so that he has time to train Sun Yue, Sun Yue even thought that he was purely idle and had nothing to do to clean up and have fun with himself, after inspecting some schoolwork, the Six Classics were not taught, and even the Nine Classics were not taught after teaching the ram for two days, anyway, the imperial examination was not taught, so he had to learn Liutao and Sushu, as well as the Three History, and even wanted him to learn the formation and Yin Fu.

Is this something you should learn?

When Sun Yueren left, Fan Zhicai frowned and said: "Brother Daoji, this kid seems to be only eight years old this year, are you too strict, and you let him learn Liutao...... Isn't this a little too early, after all, Tong Ju is about to move now. ”

Wei Renpu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This kid is not a prodigy at all, he is simply a demon, don't say that Tongju, even if you go to the Jinshi exam now, eight or nine times out of ten you can also win, it is too wasteful to let this child be poor, just the imperial examination, he can learn and understand it in a few years, plus this child has a rich family, and when the time comes, he will play around under the indulgence of nature, and he will delay this good seedling in vain, besides, you know that I am a small official, and if I really want to discuss the scriptures, my actual level is like that, I dare not talk about the Nine Classics, But I have been in the Privy Council for more than 20 years, and I still have no better strategy in this art of war. ”

Fan Zhen said in disbelief: "Such a small child, you said he can be admitted to the Jinshi now?" Then haven't all the books that my generation has read for so many years have been in the belly of a dog? ”

Wang Pu also shook his head and said: "I don't believe it either, Brother Daoji, I can understand that you praise your apprentice, I also believe him when he is a prodigy, but to say that even you can't teach him the Nine Classics, isn't this nonsense!" You must know that my son is twenty years old this year, and he is still learning Zhou Yi and Mao Shi, could it be that I was born with a mallet? ”

Wei Renpu said with a smile: "Tomorrow, tomorrow the two of you come to my house to drink, I will call him to you for a test, Brother Qi Wu, you were a Jinshi first-class back then, and you were born in the Hanlin Academy, and you have compiled the history of five dynasties, if you want to talk about the history of the scriptures, there should be no one in the world who can compare with you, and Brother Wensu, the law of Xiande Zhou was ordered by you, and your poetry and writing have always been unmatched, this kid I really can't teach alone, if you have time, are you willing to teach and teach with me?" lest you mislead people's children. ”

Fan Zhen was surprised: "Good guy, learn the art of war with you, learn the history of scripture with Brother Qi Wu, and learn criminal law from me?" The prince doesn't have this treatment! What kind of apprentice are you teaching, oh no, you two don't have master-apprentice status yet! Why is that! ”

"Good talent and beautiful jade are rare, it's true and false, I'll know if I try it in my house tomorrow, if I don't exaggerate......"

Wang Pu slapped the table and said: "If you don't exaggerate, the two of us will accompany you crazy for a while, anyway, everything in the court and China in the future has nothing to do with us, there is time." ”

Fan Zhen scolded with a smile: "He is talking nonsense, you really can't believe it, anyway, I definitely don't believe that there will be such a demon in this world, and he is not a Jinshi, how can he tell what is not learned, hahaha, drink and drink." ”

Wei Renpu was not born in Jinshi, and he didn't know how much he had suffered in his life, and when he heard Fan Zhen expose his scars, he said angrily: "Okay, you are a poor old man, how dare you underestimate me, come and come, I won't compare with you today, let's divide the wine table, see if I don't drink you to death, do it!" ”

…………

At this time, Sun Yue didn't know that his teacher had already sold him in a daze, originally looking at the imperial examination in the early Song Dynasty was so simple, far from imagining that it was difficult, and he did have a little slackness, at this time he was pulling Zhao Guangmei around to visit their family's new business, although this Fengle Building has not changed in general, but the small details, he and Sun Chunming are not less worried, and there are many modern elements, which are showing up.

After a while, Zhao Guangyi also arrived in person, Sun Chunming hurriedly went down to accompany him for a few drinks, and at this time he was completely drunk, and he only thanked him vigorously.

Zhao Guangyi said: "Needless to say thank you or something, you and my brother, don't say such kind words, I have a matter here, I am in trouble, I don't know if you can solve it for me?" ”

Sun Chunming said with a big tongue: "The second king just said it, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it for you." ”

"Brother in the New Year, I will be crowned a palace in front of the Marquis of Yu, responsible for the deployment of the inner capital, brother, you know me, I have never fought, those soldiers, may not obey me, I thought, is there any way to show them grace."

"What do the two kings think?"

"Now that the forbidden army is looking for the old and the weak, many soldiers have been expelled from the army, what can you do without the army? That is, the river workers, there is a large family to raise, the little money given by the court can not manage a few years, I wondered, you and the old party do not have a decoration team and brick kiln, I see that they are always short of manpower, you see that this will not work, try to arrange them to come down to your work, it is much stronger than the river workers, you can rest assured, there will not be too many people, I have this point of people are all on duty in the interior, I can't get down much, this is not to buy a military heart, you don't think it is. ”

Sun Chunming really drank too much, laughed when he heard it, patted his chest and said: "What should I do, it turns out that it is a demobilized soldier and re-employed, don't worry, don't say that it is eliminated, even if you retire in the future, even if you withdraw from it, even if you send me here, the second king, I am not talking to you, no more, you give me half a year, let alone a demobilized soldier, I will arrange the military family for you clearly, when the time comes, your soldiers, family members will have work to do, the salary is higher than the military salary, envy those who do not follow you, what's the matter!" ”
