suffered a barbecue of bamboo shoots for no reason, and Li Qian was really depressed in his heart. After a few days of recuperation in Jinling City, when his injuries improved slightly, he decided to leave for his hometown and live his retirement life.

Thinking about it now, he himself felt a little unbearable.

I'm afraid that in the entire Ming Dynasty, only one of the new science and technology scholars can return to his hometown at the age of a weak crown, right?

However, Liao was relieved that his goal had finally been achieved, and although there were a lot of twists and turns in the middle, the result was still satisfactory.

Ten miles of long pavilion, fragrant grass.

Several Jinshi of the same year who had a good relationship with him came to Li Qianyang today, and they comforted him again.

Seeing Li Qian grinning there heartlessly, several people were not surprised, thinking that he was forcing a smile. Scholars are very good-looking, even if they are dismissed and demoted, they must pretend to be calm and open-minded, so as to show that they have noble aspirations and the style of a literati.

In this regard, Li Qian is naturally too lazy to explain it, let them think whatever they want.

On weekdays, when you give a friend a meal, you usually have to see the other person leave first, and then you leave "reluctantly".

It's just that today is unfortunate, just in time for a literary meeting personally initiated by Hou Yong, the right attendant of the central government department, so after drinking two glasses of thin wine with each other, several people in the same year had a tacit understanding to confess one after another, and then left in a hurry------ a few people can come over to do a good job for Li Qian, it can be regarded as passable. Whether it would be rude to leave early is not within the scope of their consideration.

As the saying goes, "the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water", the friendship between literati, especially between the same year, is probably ordinary, not salty or light. A truly deep friendship is not born because they are both literati and have the same identity, but only people with similar interests or smells will have deep friendship. Most of the scholars of the same year actually only belong to the category of general friends.

The predecessor's temperament is a little withdrawn.,Although it's not arrogant.,But it's rare to have any contact with the same year.,It's normal for friendships to be dull.。

Li Qian naturally knew the thoughts of several of them, after all, he might never enter the government again in this life, in comparison, any official in the court was much more important than him Li Qian. Now that there is an opportunity to tie up, these "friends of the same year" naturally have to be firmly grasped.

The injury on the buttocks was not yet healed, and with the support of a pair of pretty girls, Li Qian limped and was about to get into the car and leave, but a carriage stopped not far away. Subsequently, a scribe of the same age as himself got out of the car, and it was just that he was not good-looking, but the key was that he was five short figures------

Just looking at this appearance, Li Qian had a strong affection for him------ after all, few men are willing to associate with people who are more handsome than themselves. looks a little stumbling, and when the two stand together in the future, they can smoothly become a "red flower", instead of being sadly reduced to a "green leaf".

The scribe glanced around, and then sighed: "I want to relieve my strength, I have been an official in the court for three years, but I don't even have a colleague who came to see him off, and people's hearts are ------."

Li Qian didn't care much about the appearance of this person, good feelings are good feelings, and people who don't know each other are not easy to make friends with.

Like such a mediocre-looking------well, a person with too vulgar appearance, to put it mildly, can knock down several bricks casually on the street, and he can't attract the attention of others at all. There are still a lot of ugly people, and I won't see anyone who is not as good as me, so I have to put down my body and take the initiative to make friends.

However, after hearing the other party call himself "Xie Jin", Li Qian was stunned, and the action of boarding the car stopped unconsciously.

Li Qian is really familiar with this name. What I didn't expect was that Xie Jin, a great talent in history, was so alive and jumping under his nose at this moment. So it's no surprise that there are some surprises.

That's right, this person is Xie Jin, one of the three great talents of the Ming Dynasty, the chief editor of the "Yongle Canon", and the first cabinet minister of the Ming Dynasty!

When he came back to his senses, he only heard Xie Jin still standing there, constantly complaining: "Hmph, the reeds on the wall are top-heavy and shallow; Bamboo shoots in the mountains, with thick skin and hollow belly in the mouth------"

When Li Qian heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to hear Xie Jin himself recite this famous couplet, it was really in vain to come to the Ming Dynasty!" However------ this Xie Jin is really like the legend, with a famous foul mouth------"

Unexpectedly, Xie Jin found that he was looking at himself, and then his eyes widened: "Who are you?!! ”

Li Qian didn't expect that he didn't recruit anyone to provoke anyone to stand here, and he actually offended the other party, so he had to take two steps forward and arch his hand: "Under Li Qian, I have long admired the name of the great ------ and gentry, and I don't want to be lucky enough to meet here, fortunately, fortunately!" ”

"Li Qian? Li Zhongqing? ”

Xie Jin was also stunned when he heard this, but he felt a little strange about his attitude. It is true that he is famous for his small talent, but he is only a third-class fellow jinshi------ Xie Jin has always been suspicious, thinking that it is because of what kind of tricks those examiners played back then, and his ranking will not be high.

In other words, Li Qian in front of him is much more famous than his Xie Jin. In just a few days, the matter of Zhuangyuanlang has already been in an uproar, and the whole city knows about it.

Of course, three years ago, Xie Jin didn't feel very proud of the title of "one door and three jinshi". After all, it doesn't exactly refer to himself, but also includes his brother and sister-in-law.

Here, Li Qian laughed at himself: "No, it's the fake champion Li Qian." ”

Xie Jin looked at him seriously from head to toe, and asked again with a frown: "Are you really the one who wrote 'A generation of Tianjiao, Genghis Khan, only knows how to bend the bow and shoot the eagle'?" ”

"Replace ------ if it's fake"

Li Qian can see that the focus of this "Scholar Xie" is different from others, and he only remembers the words and phrases that hurt people, but he forgot the essence of the sentence he used to flatter Zhu Yuanzhang, and the exquisite finishing touch------

Xie Jin no longer doubted it this time, solemnly held his hand, shook desperately as if he had found a soulmate, and said excitedly: "Zhong Qing's literary brilliance is outstanding, Xie Jin admires!" ”

Being grabbed by a big man like this, Li Qian only felt uncomfortable, quietly withdrew his hands, and smiled at him modestly: "The great gentleman is a great talent, and he is ashamed of himself, and he is ashamed of himself, and he is ashamed of himself------"

Xie Jin, like Li Qian, both set off to return to their hometowns today. What's more coincidental is that even the reason is similar, they are also young people who were dismissed from their official positions by Zhu Yuanzhang and went back to polish.

A few days ago, Zhu Yuanzhang said in front of his father: "If you are a late bloomer, if you return to Erzi, you will be able to enter, and in the next ten years, it will not be too late." ”

At this moment, after learning that the person in front of him was the new science and technology scholar who was "given" to Zhishi at a young age, Xie Jin actually had a sense of sympathy for "difficult brothers" in his heart, and Li Qian behaved so modestly, which also gave him a good impression. He opened his mouth and was about to say something more, but then he suddenly remembered something, and asked coldly: "Are you from Hangzhou?" ”

"Huh? Well------ Zai is indeed a person from Hangzhou, why does the gentry have such a question? ”

"Hey, I'm still a scumbag in Hangzhou!"

"Why?" Li Qian felt even more inexplicable.

"It's not that Shen Wei, shameless ------"

Xie Jin's face was angry, but he didn't say anything, his eyes looked behind Li Qian, then he took two steps back, and said to Li Qian: "Father, they have arrived, I should also leave, the coming day is long, let's say goodbye, goodbye!" ”

Li Qian looked back and found that there was indeed a car on the official road not far away, so he also nodded, saluted him back, and then boarded the car.

In the carriage, Zipei couldn't help but be curious after all, and asked, "Young Master, who is that, why did you talk to him for so long?" ”

"An interesting person!" Li Qian smiled mysteriously.

"Why didn't I see that?" She pursed her lips.

"Look at it, in the future, he will be a supreme minister, and his status is comparable to Jiuqing!" Li Qian replied categorically, but added in his heart: "Why is it Jiuqing? Although the first assistant of the cabinet of the Yongle Dynasty was not as powerful as Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the Jiajing Dynasty, it was much more powerful than the cabinet scholars who existed in the form of advisers in the Hongwu Dynasty today. At that time, Xie Jin could be said to be a well-deserved head of the civil servants, although the final outcome was not very good. ”

"The young master still looks at it?"

"That's natural, young master, I will have a lot, why don't I show you now?"

As soon as Li Qian saw the sparkling appearance of those smart and cute big eyes, he couldn't help but want to tease this little girl, which could be regarded as relieving his boredom on the way back.

"Okay, okay, young master, take a look at me!" Zipei said excitedly.

"Well------ I see that your heavenly court is full, the earth pavilion is round, the bones are clear, and the spiritual roots are very good, you will definitely be able to find a good husband in the future------ ouch, don't make trouble, the wound on my buttocks, young master, is not healed yet------"

"Zipei, don't make a mistake!"

Zijin on the side saw that his sister was so big and small, and dared to push the young master with his hand, and immediately reprimanded him with a straight face, and then asked about Li Qian's injury with concern. Zipei also realized that he was too presumptuous at this time, and there was a rare panic on his face, and he hurriedly apologized in a low voice: "Young master, I didn't mean to ------ me, you ------ or you hit me------"

"No big, no small, what am I? Call yourself a slave! ”

Zijin corrected solemnly, but Li Qian waved his hand, and smiled at Zipei, who seemed a little aggrieved at the moment: "It's okay, it's okay, you don't need to be too restrained in front of me, and when you go back, you have to be careful in front of the master." ”

The twin maids were bought by Li Qian from Renyazi in the early years, and they have always been waiting for him closely, but he has never been treated very harshly.

Today's Li Qian, his easy-going temperament is similar to his predecessor, and he is much more cheerful than him, and he does not have the hierarchical concept of the young master of a big family at this time, which makes these two girls more casual in front of him.

However, he knew very well in his heart that his father was a big landowner, and his sense of hierarchy was still very strong, and if he saw the maid fighting with him, he would definitely feel that he had lost his dignity, and he would have to reprimand him.

As soon as he thought of his current identity, Li Qian was full of infinite longing for a better life in the future: "Hey, it's not bad to be a young master of a landlord's family!" You can fight cocks and walk dogs every day, enjoy flowers and birds, drink and visit Qinglou------ tsk! ”

Hangzhou, I'm coming!
