"My house?" Han Rui was in an abnormal mood, and he was puzzled for a while.

"Nature." Yu Shinan said seriously: "Do you know who owned this mansion before? ”

With such an inquiry, and then in connection with Yu Shinan's words and deeds, Han Rui speculated a little, and then came to a conclusion, and asked: "Is it Uncle Hao's ......?"

"Needless to say, it's my brother Yu Shiji." Yu Shinan smiled, his eyes were misty, obviously evoking memories of the past, and sighed lightly: "Actually, in addition, there are many mansions and farms, and His Majesty wanted to give them all back, but the old man refused, and only chose this ......."

Han Rui is also a little clear, although he doesn't know how powerful and wealthy Yu Shiji was back then, but through the words left by everyone, it can be seen that it is extravagant, although this mansion can be called spacious and elegant, but there is still a great distance from the magnificence, maybe it is Yu Shiji's residence before he made his career.

"When you're old, you can't help but like to look back."

After a while, Yu Shinan came back to his senses and said with a smile: "The son inherits his father's business, counting it, this house should be obscure, and you have a shallow relationship, so it is natural to take over on your behalf." ”

"Gong Yu......" Han Rui sighed, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You don't want to harm me." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Yu Shinan smiled and groaned.

"I really agreed, wouldn't it become a dove occupying the magpie's nest and spreading it, not to mention how everyone would criticize and attack, Uncle Hao knew about it, maybe he would immediately kill Chang'an and ...... me Hey, Yu Gong, you're not going to be playing with this idea, are you? Han Rui cried with a sad face and lamented: "Duke Yu, the kid has always been respectful to you, and he has no grudges, there is no need for me to be spurned by the world, and I should also cut off the relationship with the housekeeper." ”

With a smile in his eyes, Yu Shinan stroked his beard and groaned, nodded at the end and said, "It seems to be the same, so you can go out with me." ”

Saying that, Yu Shinan stood up and walked towards the outside of the hall, Han Rui breathed a sigh of relief and walked slowly with Qian Feng.

When he came to the front yard and found that the carriage had been prepared in front of the door, Yu An looked back with a smile in front of the car, as if he had been waiting for a long time, and looked at Qian Feng, Han Rui felt that he seemed to have fallen into a trap.

The three of them got into the carriage, Yu An raised his whip and shook lightly, and with a sound, the horse raised its hooves and marched along the street, fast and steady, and it didn't take long for it to go out of the city gate and drive in a northeast direction.

The carriage traveled farther and farther, looking through the curtain and looking at the golden wheat millet in the suburbs and fields, Han Rui asked softly, "Duke Yu, where are we going here?" ”

"Why, I'm worried that the old man will sell you." Yu Shinan replied, slowly closed his eyes, breathed and recuperated, and no longer bothered the two.

The carriage continued to move forward, and the road was changed from a wide and flat official road to a tortuous and bumpy sheep intestine path, the place became more and more remote, the trees became more and more prosperous, the clear stream spring water gurgling, and the scenery was beautiful, but occasionally you could see the mountain village and the farmhouse, which made Han Rui's heart somewhat steady, and after a while, he only heard the neighing of the horse, the sound of hooves gradually stopped, and the carriage slowly stopped.

Lifting the curtain, Han Rui took the lead down, greeted Qian Feng, helped Yu Shinan to get out of the car, looked back, in front of him was a mountain forest, all kinds of trees grew spontaneously, a meandering transparent stream slowly flowed down, a flat small bridge on both banks, and at the other end, it was a fence house.

The house is not large, it is made of mud and wood, the roof is thatched tiles, and there are two willows planted in the fence yard, and the long branches and leaves are swaying in the wind, as if welcoming everyone.

"Come in." Yu Shinan smiled, pushed open the bamboo door casually, and stepped in.

After entering the thatched hut, Han Rui found that although the sparrows were small, they were all complete, and there was no shortage of couches and tables, and there was no dust in the house, so it was obvious that people often came to clean them.

Opening the window, looking at the surrounding elegant environment, and according to Mao Dun's situation, Han Rui was a little clear, but he still asked, "Gong Yu, is this place?" ”

"A place where the old man lives in seclusion." Yu Shinan said: "It's a pity that there are too many mundane things, and I can only come to stay for a few days every once in a while." ”

"Duke Yu is an important minister of the imperial court, so naturally he can't be greedy for elegance and neglect state affairs." Han Rui said, a little flattery.

Yu Shinan was free, waved his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "Han Rui, what do you think, how is this place?" ”

Han Rui naturally praised from the bottom of his heart: "The water is clear and the mountains are beautiful, quiet and elegant, and away from the troubles of the world, it is really a good place." ”

"Pretending to be confused." Yu Shinan scolded with a smile, rolled up the curtains, and walked to the inner room, a small space, but a few large boxes were neatly placed, and the lid was opened, and there were stacks of books and papers.

Caressing the books, Yu Shinan cherished and said: "These are the treasures of the old man, but they are buried here, and at the end of the year, there are only a few days to see the sky again. ”

Historical Records, Hanshu, Laozi, Zhuangzi, Classic of Filial Piety, Analects, Spring and Autumn ...... With Yu Shinan's consent, he picked up the Analects of the Analects, turned a few pages, and found that between the blank gaps in the pages, there were dense small characters written on the fly's head, but it was the experience of reading.

As long as you read the annotations, you can clearly understand that Yu Shinan's thoughts and perceptions of these scriptures can be described as extremely valuable experience, at least, so that scholars and scholars who are interested in learning can avoid many detours.

Han Rui's reaction was flat, but Qian Feng was so excited that he almost jumped out of joy.

It is no wonder that he will lose his temper, to know that the ancients wrote the scriptures and classics, due to the limitation of space, often with words to consider, that is, the so-called micro words, later generations due to different understandings, and there is no specific reference standard, naturally produced a lot of annotations, if the experience of the great Confucians of the past dynasties are listed, like a vast sea of smoke, the exhaustion of life's work, I am afraid it is difficult to read one by one, can only be selectively read.

However, the problem comes again, if you say that reading is only for the study of knowledge, to see whose commentary on the scriptures is not to read, it is all based on personal preference, and there is no need to make difficulties, however, the emergence of the imperial examination has broken this norm, and after studying half a lifetime of learning, going to the examination room, and answering questions like fluent, I thought that I could definitely go to high school, but I didn't think about it but fell off the list.

The root cause is nothing more than the difference in schools, the examiner does not accept your set, what is the use of the article no matter how colorful it is, there is no reason for academic disputes, and the established facts are almost impossible to turn around, and I have to think that I am unlucky, so I think about the intention and find out the examiner's preferences, and slowly become a necessary homework for the examiner.

Over the past few years, everyone has also understood clearly, although the examiners are different every year, but there are rules to follow, most of them are bachelors of Hongwenguan, and Yu Shinan is one of them, even if he is not a knowledgeable examiner, but with these reference materials, as long as he recites them silently, he doesn't have to be afraid to take them down.

Don't explain the scriptures and show talents, even the top three jinshi, and there is a chance to be admitted, thinking of this, Qian Feng was excited, quietly pulled Han Rui's sleeve, and hinted: "Twenty-one Lang, the ...... scholar"

Han Rui nodded and said with a smile: "In this case, it is better for Gong Yu to give these books to the kid for safekeeping, so naturally he will not let them be buried again." ”

"Boy, think of good things." Yu Shinan smiled: "Why, don't continue to pretend to be confused, I thought you would say that you can't refuse." ”

"In front of your old man, the kid can't be smart." After saying a word, Han Rui bowed his hand and thanked him: "Duke Yu, the elder gives it, don't dare to resign, and the kid is better to obey his fate than to be respectful." ”

"Well, it's a secluded place, just enough to concentrate on your studies." Yu Shinan said: "Prepare early, wait for Your Majesty's summons." ”

After the explanation, after staying for a while, Yu Shinan also took the car back, looking at the carriage in the distance, Qian Feng could no longer hold back his excitement, cheered and shouted, hurried back to the house, threw himself into a few boxes of books, and desperately stuffed them into his arms, with a look of intoxication.

Unable to look at it anymore, Han Rui walked outside, walked around the house twice, and found that the environment here is indeed good, and it is not difficult to accept staying here for a while.

Suddenly, Han Rui found a serious problem, hurriedly entered the house, woke up Qian Feng, and said solemnly: "Third brother, are we in trouble?" ”

"Haha, with these books, what trouble are we afraid of." Obviously, Qian Feng has not yet woken up from the joy and behaves very relaxed and calm.

"What do we eat at night?" Han Rui sighed helplessly and asked an inevitable and very practical question.

When it came to eating, Qian Feng was very sensitive, and suddenly woke up, this is not a farmhouse or inn, and he couldn't help but say urgently: "Yes, what about dinner." ”

"More than dinner." Han Rui stroked his forehead and said: "I looked at it just now, there is no kitchen here, there is not even a place to shower, the weather is cold at night, and the thin cloth is difficult to heat at all, and even sleeping is a problem." ”

"Ahh Qian Feng called.

Wide-eyed and small-eyed, there is no need to count on this rich second generation, Han Rui stood up and snorted: "Stay and watch the house, I will go to the village in front to see if I can hire a car and borrow a mule, and go to Xinfeng to inform them of Qian Gui." ”

"Hehe, then I'm sorry for you, don't forget to close the door when you go out." Qian Feng was holding a book, with a cute face, a fleshy face, and a bright smile, which was so dazzling.

Resisting the urge to slap his face, Han Rui waved his sleeves away, looking at the secluded thatched hut built next to the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers, and couldn't help but sigh softly, no wonder the hermits are becoming more and more scarce these years, either starving to death, or unable to bear to run.

Follow the trail, go all the way, remember that the mountain village is so close, but when you walk, it is far away in the sky, and there is no trace for half a day, wiping the hot sweat on his forehead, gasping for breath, Han Rui continues to move forward.

Suddenly, I heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance, from far to near, there was a fast horse galloping from the right side, the sound of hooves gradually refreshed, like lightning flint, directly swept by Han Rui's side, a cool breeze blew, it was really refreshing, suddenly there was a long neigh, but the horse stopped.

"Why is it that every time I see you, I am always walking, is it more comfortable to walk than to ride a horse?"

The mocking voice sounded, Han Rui looked up, but saw that on the back of the horse, it was a handsome young man, dressed in a dark crown robe, embellished with dark dragon decorations, stepping on jet-black and shiny leather boots, holding a bow in his left hand, and hanging a saddle with an arrow bag, his demeanor was calm and full of majesty and nobility.
