Chapter 43: A Father and Son (1)

When the gatekeeper saw Gu Yan, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "The little minister comes with me, and Lord Ouyang is waiting inside." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Gu Yan clenched his fists slightly: "I'm tired." ā€

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. It's a villain's business. This man didn't dare to say it, but the smile in his eyes was real.

The two were about to enter the door, but a young gentleman waiting behind him stepped forward and said, "What's going on?" I've been waiting with a few benevolent brothers for a long time, and you shirk Ouyang Gong and can't be idle, why is Ouyang Gong empty since this person? Isn't it you, a villain? ā€

was scolded as a villain, the porter was also a little angry, and his smile faded, and he was afraid of his identity, but it was not good to have a seizure. just said nonchalantly: "This is Gu Gongzi of Changzhou, Lord Ouyang has already commanded." He was worried that Ouyang Xiu would wait for a long time and that it would be unfavorable for him to do things, so he ignored the person and only said to Gu Yan: "Gu Gongzi, please come here." Gu Yan glanced at the scholars, but found that one of them, a middle-aged, white-faced and bearded man in white who didn't know him, smiled at him and hugged his fists. Gu Yan was slightly stunned, then smiled and nodded slightly, and returned the courtesy. I didn't have time to think about it, so I walked inside.

"I'm really!" The man who spoke out was still a little indignant. But he saw the white-clothed man come forward and said with a smile: "Do you still want to wait here?" I still have some things to do, so I'll go first. ā€

A scholar next to him grabbed him, "Why did Brother Lu leave so early?" ā€

The scholar surnamed Lu said with a smile: "The young man who just went in is from Changzhou, and his surname is Gu, and if he can get Ouyang Gong's blue eyes, he must be Gu Yuzhi, who is now famous." The person Ouyang Gong met with just now is just a scholar like us, and now that he has Gu Yuzhi, he must be idle for a while. ā€

"Is that person Gu Yuzhi?" But the person who had just stepped forward to ask heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Didn't you say that Gu Yuzhi was indifferent to fame and fortune and disdained to do things?" ā€

The smile of the scholar surnamed Lu remained unchanged, "Since I saw it today, I think those are just rumors." After speaking, he secretly sneered twice in his heart for this person's innocence, how could it be so that he took the initiative to participate in the imperial examination at such a young age, and had no desire and was indifferent to fame and fortune? I couldn't help but think of something else: "Is this Gu Yan young, if I have this talent...... Waiting for the official family to be recruited in the name of the world, why worry about the big thing? Do I have to participate in the imperial examination? Once you don't win, you will be called frivolous. Thinking of this, I also despise Gu Yan, who is famous all over the world. Even though he thought so, the man still had a gentle smile, "Several, I'll go first." With that, he left.

Seeing this man leave, the remaining few people also hesitated, and after a while, the other two also took their leave. Only the man who stepped forward to theorize was left. The man stood there and waited for another quarter of an hour, then finally cursed and walked away.

Gu Yan walked for a while, but saw a scribe in regular clothes coming up, looking at the age, clothing and posture, it must be Ouyang Xiu. Seeing the famous Ouyang Xiu go out to greet him, Gu Yan couldn't help but feel a little honored and excited.

"This must be Gu Yuzhi? It's really a young handsome. I've been admiring this for a long time! Ouyang Xiu laughed.

"Ouyang Gong should not praise him, he is young and ignorant, and there are still many deficiencies." Gu Yan bowed.

Seeing that Gu Yan was young, his face was like a crown of jade, he looked gentle and elegant, not arrogant or impatient, and he acted in a very orderly manner, Ouyang Xiu couldn't help nodding secretly, what kind of character can write that amazing work. hurriedly rushed forward and helped Gu Yan up

The two entered the door hand in hand. Gu Yan's eyes were sharp, and he soon found that there were three other people in the room, and after thinking about it carefully, he knew that this was Ouyang Xiu's guest, but he didn't know who they were. Gu Yan couldn't help but think to himself.

Seeing Ouyang Xiu and Gu Yan coming in, all three of them stood up. Ouyang Xiu smiled and introduced to the three of them: "This is the one who wrote the "Four Books Collection Notes" Changzhou Gu Yuzhi.

After speaking, he introduced to Gu Yan with a smile: "These three are Su Xun and Su Mingyun of Meishan and his two beauties, Su Shi Su Zizhan and Su Zhe Su Ziyou. Su Xun's father and son are still not well-known now, and Ouyang Xiu was worried that Gu Yan would despise him, so he added: "Su Mingyun's article is extremely well written, comparable to Jia Changsha. The two Lang Jun were also handsome at that time, and they were also going to participate in this provincial examination. Presumably, it is quite a match for the encounter. ā€

On this side, Gu Yan was stunned. He had long known that he would meet Su Shi and them one day sooner or later, but he didn't expect to meet them in Ouyang Xiu's mansion. I was caught off guard for a while. Reborn in two lives, I saw a lot of celebrities. Gu Yan has long been accustomed to being indifferent, but in modern times, Gu Yan likes Su Shi's poems and articles, and often sighs and hates that he can't see each other. Now that I finally see a living person, I can't help but feel a little uncontrollable. But when we meet, those poems of Su Shi that Gu Yan likes have basically not come out yet. Gu Yan couldn't rush up and say, "Brother Su, you're going to the east of the river." 'Excellently written. ā€

Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, but when he came back to his senses, Gu Yan suppressed the excitement in his heart, hugged his fists and smiled: "I met a young man, but I asked a few people for advice." ā€

Gu Yan's humility and courtesy greatly won the favor of everyone. Su Xun, as Su Shi and Su Zhe's father, naturally became the spokesman. Gu Yan's reputation is there, he naturally doesn't dare to hold it up, but he only thinks that Gu Yan is humble words: "As soon as the "Notes on the Four Books Collection" comes out, who in the world doesn't know Gu Yuzhi's name? I have heard his name for a long time, and I am very fortunate to be able to see it today. ā€

Gu Yan couldn't help but be humble. When they arrived in the house, the guest sat down, Ouyang Xiu had the intention to introduce Gu Yan and the Su father and son to each other, so he took Su Xun's article to Gu Yan, and Gu Yan was happy when he saw the title. Isn't this the famous "Theory of the Six Kingdoms" in later generations? Gu Yan memorized this article back then. However, Gu Yan couldn't show that he had seen it, or even too fast, so as not to make people feel that he had not looked carefully and felt disrespectful to the other party. Gu Yan silently read this not too long article in his heart before putting down the article in his hand.

When Gu Yan was reading "The Theory of the Six Kingdoms", Ouyang Xiu also picked up Gu Yan's article that was put aside and read it carefully. Ouyang Xiu saw that these articles were all ancient texts, and they did not have the sinister and strange and condescending problems of the popular Taixue style, so he couldn't help but nodded, and felt a little happy in his heart. Looking carefully at Gu Yan's article, it is also thorough and detailed. I can't help but rejoice in the revival of ancient texts, and there are successors.
