Chapter 362: A Boy's Heart

(ps: This chapter is given to the children who have finished the college entrance examination, I hope you can also be like Gu and be able to shoulder the burden of your family and country in the future!) Come on! )

Xie Shence naturally knew that Miss Murong left early in the morning, but he didn't get up.

"My lord, do you want to send someone to take care of you along the way?"

Shaking his head, Xie Shence said: "No need, the bright moon and the ditch, the sound of the photo is fate, don't draw snakes." ”

Mr. Yang made a statement, and then took the documents sent by Tiqi to Xie Shence for approval.

At this time, twenty miles away from Wuxi City, in a carriage, Miss Murong opened the window and was watching the scenery along the way, and the maid was taking a nap.

At night, in the inn, after serving the Murong girl after washing, she checked the doors and windows, and the maid said, "Master, did that guy really not find out?" ”

At this time, the Murong girl was wearing a thin shirt, and the veil on her face had long been removed, except for the faint peach blossom that exuded warmth, and the whole person was like an ice sculpture, and even the temperature in the room was a little cold.

"I didn't send someone to follow, so naturally I didn't find out."

The maid thought for a moment and said, "The master treats him like this, he is so affectionate, what a damn thing!" ”

Miss Murong smiled slightly, and the cold dissipated a little.

"He has a thief's heart but not a thief's guts. That day in Taihu Tower, didn't you listen to the fat man? The lady of his family is amazing. ”

The maid smiled disdainfully: "No matter how powerful you are, what can you do?" It's not that I've fallen into the poisonous hands of the Erli people, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it in this life."

"Shut up!" Miss Murong snorted, and her face was covered with frost again.

The maid hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed heavily, trembling for fear, although there was a chill in the room, she was sweating her clothes.

Where is this still the intimate lady and maid a few days ago?

Miss Murong also seemed to be really angry, and said, "Do you know what it means for a woman to be unable to have children? Wang Jiehua suffered this bad luck, not to mention whether he will be saved in the future, even if he can be cured, it will be at the cost of life. Woman, if your life is like this, it is a great misfortune, and you should sympathize with it, not ridicule it. ”

The maid just kowtowed, and there was already flesh and blood between her forehead and the floor, but she didn't dare to raise her head.

Miss Murong glanced at it, with some disgust between her eyebrows, as if she remembered something, so she said, "Get up, go down and bandage, don't let people see anything." ”

The maid was stunned, but she didn't dare to question it, and went down cautiously.

Miss Murong sat in front of the bronze mirror, looked at the peach blossom on her face by candlelight, looked at it, and felt extremely ugly, so she opened the rouge box and prepared to cover it up with makeup.

However, she wiped half of it with rouge, and felt that it was inappropriate, so she lowered her head and thought about it, wiped it off again, and then looked at it carefully. Thinking that the way the man looked at herself, it was not disgusted, it seemed to be a little sympathetic, but more amazed and appreciative, so for the first time, she felt that the birthmark on her face was a little good.

Standing up, Miss Murong took out a mask from the package and put it on her face, and then sat down in front of the bronze mirror again, feeling the difference between wearing it and not wearing it, and finally felt that it was better not to wear it.

It would be nice if you could not wear it. However, if you don't wear it, how can you be the one who is below one person and above ten thousand?

So she was very upset, and took off the silver mask and put it at the bottom of the package

Xie Shence stayed in Wuxi City for a few more days, and after the wounds on his body were basically healed, he was able to swim in the water, and after reading the documents of the Tiqi Division, he did not make any changes to the current situation of the Tiqi in Jiangnan County, and he was very happy for two days.

The prince seems to have encountered difficulties in the past few days, although it is invisible, but according to the report of Tiqi, the prince's room has not been quiet in the past two days, and the sound of broken items is heard from time to time.

Xie Shence smiled slightly, and then motioned for Tiqi to go as usual.

Gu Shunning came again later, expressing his father Gu Xian's wish to be able to meet Xie Shence, and at the same time implicitly expressed that the door of the Gu family would always be open for Xie Shence. Thank you for your reply.

So that night, Xie Shence brought Mr. Yang and Zhuo Shishimao Xiaosan to Gu's mansion for a banquet.

The Gu family's mansion is in Beicheng, this area is inhabited by either high-ranking officials or business tycoons, the Gu family set up a banquet tonight, mainly to feast Xie Shence, but in order to avoid people's eyes, they also invited many officials and wealthy businessmen in Wuxi City, and the most important thing is the prince.

So on the surface, the Gu family is actually to feast the prince.

Gu Shunning was in the front hall, and Gu Xian was in the back hall, chatting with some officials about sensitive things such as food, money, and grain, but they had nothing to do with the overall situation.

After Xie Shence handed over his name, he was led to the backyard by a steward, and when Xie Shence came to a garden in the backyard, he saw a teenager waiting there early.

That young man was Gu Shunning's younger brother Gu Shunxing.

Looking at the appearance of the young man, it seems that he has been waiting for a long time, although he is quite apprehensive between his eyebrows, but his body is upright, but he is a young man and an old man, and he is quite calm.

The steward bowed his head and gestured, motioning for Xie Shence to enter, and then left.

Xie Shence observed the young man in the middle of the pavilion at the door with great interest for a while, and found that he had been sitting upright except for occasionally picking up a teacup to moisten his throat and grabbing his sleeves with both hands.

Secretly surprised in his heart, Xie Shence was also thinking about whether he had seen this child.

Listening to Gu Shunning's words, Gu Shunxing was studying in Taixue, that was a generation of prodigies, but his time as a doctor in Taixue was very short, and he didn't necessarily teach him, so he didn't have much impression.

Xie Shence walked over slowly.

Gu Shunxing heard the voice and immediately looked over here. After seeing that the person who came was indeed the young man he had seen in the inn outside the city a few days ago, Huo Ran got up, walked quickly to Xie Shence, bowed down and said, "Tai student Gu Shunxing, I have seen the professor. ”

Gu Shunxing was a student salute, but Xie Shence was a little embarrassed - maybe I really didn't teach you, in case you talked about the Tai Academy in a while, wouldn't I be very embarrassed?

It's just that Gu Shunxing was still bent over, Xie Shence didn't have time to hesitate whether he should accept this gift, and he didn't turn sideways, so he could only hold his hands and say, "Please get up." ”

Gu Shunxing looked very happy, so he led Xie Shence to sit down in the pavilion, and then said: "As early as that day, I should have thought that it was a professor, but when I was studying at that time, I couldn't be assigned to the professor's class, although I took the professor's class later, but the professor was transferred, I thought that I only audited a class, and I still couldn't grab the window to listen, and I didn't remember the professor really, it's a pity." ”

Thank you Shence said in his heart No wonder I have no impression of you, it turns out that I only listen to one class, or outside the window. But after thinking about it, I haven't taken many classes in Tai Academy, so I blame myself a little.

The tradition of wanting to come to the Xie family as a teacher is broken in my generation. Xie Shence thought so in his heart.

"Later, I heard other senior brothers say that the professor's class is different from others and has a different style, and I regret it even more in my heart, only complaining that the students did not have that good life and failed to listen to the professor's teachings."

But all the words of compliments always make people happy, although I was not familiar with it before, but Xie Shence's face has always been very thick when there is a need, so he smiled slightly: "At that time, I didn't know that it was a pity that my Tai Academy had a young student like you." ”

Gu Shunxing smiled and said, "After you left, the dean and Qian Lao often mentioned you. ”

Xie Shence was a little embarrassed, with his understanding of Sima Yu and Qian Boan, the former is a righteous gentleman, and he must be praised by others, but Qian Boan is different, that is a guy who can turn his face with himself for a pound of tea, how will he damage himself if he can't keep it.

Sure enough, Xie Shence thought so, and Gu Shunxing's face on the other side was also a little embarrassed.

Xie Shence was immediately unhappy. What do you mean? I know that the old guy can't spit out ivory!

It's just that when I think of my grandfather talking about Qian Bo'an, Xie Shence is a little disappointed. So Xie Shence asked, "Are the dean and Qian Lao okay?" What about the other professors? Although I was in Jindu some time ago, I haven't seen them for a long time. ”

Gu Shunxing nodded respectfully and said: "The dean is in good health, and he still likes to play the piano as always, but last year, the Tai Academy was rebuilt, and the small bamboo forest was moved to the back of the teaching house, and the dean likes to be quiet, so he rarely goes." ”

"Professor Niu still likes to beat people, and once again the student was late due to illness, although he was not beaten by him, but he was scolded a few times, and he was very nervous at that time."

"Professor Yan revised the rules of the college again, and many of his classmates were miserable, and it is said that some people even began to intercede with their families and asked the dean to veto them."

"The place where Professor Su and Professor Liu debated moved to the back of the teaching room, and they didn't break up in class a few times, and even almost got into a fight once, and many classmates ran to see it, and Professor Yue was punched in the eye when he went to pull the rack, and his eyes were black at that time, and he didn't come to class for several days."

"Qian Lao's body is okay, because of the compilation of the book, I invited many classmates to help sort out the materials, and the students were fortunate to participate in it. Everyone was very happy, saying that when the book was completed, they would ask His Majesty to inscribe it, and Master Taifu would make a preface. Because of the collection of materials, the students went to the professor's mansion and also went to Jinyang City to ask Master Taifu for advice, and benefited a lot. ”

Gu Shunxing was talking about the Tai Academy like this, and Xie Shence also listened carefully.

"Speaking of which, because of you, the academy has paid attention to martial arts in recent years. And because it is said that the imperial court wants to hold a martial arts hall and open a martial arts, so the teaching of martial arts is very scarce, and His Majesty knows that after he knows it, he specially ordered the generals of Yu Linwei to come to teach regularly. By the way, Professor, are you sure that the martial arts hall and martial arts will be opened? ”

Xie Shence said: "I have also heard that it is said that it can be prepared when the indemnity of the Qin State arrives. However, it will not start until next year at the earliest, and the official enrollment is expected to be the year after next. ”

Gu Shunxing asked expectantly: "Dare to ask the professor, will there be a branch in Huaiyang Dao?" ”

"What? Do you want to enter the martial arts hall? Xie Shence smiled and said, "There shouldn't be a branch." I'm afraid your body is a little struggling, but it's still early, and if you step up your exercise in the past two years, you still have a chance. ”

Gu Shunxing listened to Xie Shence's rhetorical question, looked a little discouraged, and said, "My father wants students to follow the literature. However, in recent years, I have repeatedly fought with foreign countries, and the students are very anxious, thinking that in the future, if they have the opportunity, they can also go to the battlefield and cut off one or two heads with their own hands, so that they can be worthy of their family and country, and the right sages and sages they have read. It's just that I heard from a classmate who knows the inside story that the number of places recruited is extremely limited, and the conditions are extremely harsh, so I am afraid that my strength will not be good at that time."

Xie Shence smiled slightly, how could he not know Gu Shunxing's careful thoughts? I'm afraid I want to find some way from myself, and I have to figure it out at the worst, so that I can prepare in advance.

Thinking of this, Xie Shence asked: "If you serve the country and don't want to be a civil official, you can help your father do business. No less credit than killing the enemy on the front line. ”

Gu Shunxing thought for a while and said sincerely: "Don't hide it from the teacher, it's enough for the student to have a big brother in the family, and the student thinks that even if he can't kill the enemy, it's good to take a look, look at the people in the frontier, and look at the things in the frontier." ”

Xie Shence looked at Gu Shunxing's clear eyes and couldn't help but feel pleased. I'm a scholar in Dajin, and I still have ambitions in the end
