New Year's Day is a big pilgrimage meeting. There was nothing shocking happened on the New Year's Day of the seventeenth year of Chenghua, and it was a peaceful and joyful court.

After the end of the court meeting, the big and small officials began to celebrate the New Year, and the Beijing division officially entered the time when business cards were flying all over the sky. Everyone made a few sacks of business cards, and when they saw the vermilion gate, they voted for one, which was regarded as a door-to-door greeting for the New Year. The host family does not have to come out to meet the guests, just ask the house slave to collect business cards at the door.

This kind of atmosphere is probably the result of the simplification of the etiquette system, otherwise there are thousands of officials in Beijing, who doesn't have one hundred and eighty fellow villagers, the same year, classmates, friends, and bosses? If you worship the New Year according to normal human etiquette, I am afraid that you will not be able to finish the worship until the next New Year.

Fang Mansion is no exception, although Fang Qingzhi, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, is very dissatisfied with this impetuous atmosphere, he also has to follow the trend, arranging people to collect business cards at the gate on the one hand, and sending people out to distribute business cards on the other side.

Fang Yingwu, who was bored at home, was arrested and went out to sweep the street with a bag of his father's business cards, but whenever he saw the person who received the business card, he stepped forward to send one, regardless of who the other party was.

The residences of officials in the Xicheng area were dense, and Fang Yingwu sent it to Li Dongyang's house. He stood at the door and muttered for a moment, calling the Li family very strange.

"After corporal Lin, I will come in and ask to see Lord Li of your mansion, please report." Fang Yingwu said to Menzi, who received business cards at the door, and did not add a sentence, "My father is a colleague of Master Li. ”

In Fang Yingwu's thoughts, don't offend Li Dongyang if you can, and don't be an enemy if you can't be a family. In the future, this is a powerful figure who is even more famous than Xie Qian's generation. If you can meet in person, you should explain it carefully. Strive for Li Dongyang's understanding, don't let Li Dongyang leave any mustard.

Not much. Someone came out and introduced Fang Yingwu into the house. Li Dongyang's ancestors have lived in Beijing for many years, and he grew up in Beijing, so he can barely be regarded as a native of Beijing, and the area of the house is much larger than that of the Fang family.

Fang Yingwu was led to a hall, but saw Li Dongyang in a casual robe, sitting in the hall, chatting with several relatives and friends. Fang Yingwu saluted and said: "I have a few words in the late life, and I dare to talk to Li Gong alone." ”

Li Dongyang was very kind to the other party. got up again and went to the side inner room with Fang Yingwu, and after sitting down, he said with interest, "What do you have to say?" ”

Fang Yingwu pondered the words, "Li Gongwen is brilliant, admired at home and abroad, and he is also extremely admired in his later life, I just hate that I can't recognize Jing as soon as possible, and worship under the door to get early and evening teachings"

Fang Yingwu sent out a high hat, but Li Dongyang remained silent and continued to listen without speaking.

Fang Yingwu finished patting the fart. He changed his tone and said: "But life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten, the late life has no fate with Li Gong, and Li Gong's love is unaffordable." ”

Li Dongyang was slightly stunned. Grasp the point and ask, "Is this your idea, or is it Ling Zun's idea?" ”

Fang Yingwu was very embarrassed and said: "My father feels guilty in his heart, and he doesn't know how to talk to Li Gong. Therefore, he had the courage to come and tell him. ”

Li Dongyang is known as "Li Gongmou" in the history books and is good at calculation. When encountering things, he was very thoughtful, and immediately asked: "Could it be that you have another favorite person?" I don't know which one is so blessed? ”

Fang Yingwu bowed and apologized: "I don't hide it. Two years ago, he had an agreement with Liu Gong, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, to wait for him to recruit a son-in-law, but his father never knew about it, so he recklessly recruited his relatives. ”

"It turned out to be Liu Ge Lao" Li Dongyang didn't show anything on his face, but his tone was meaningful and a little contemptuous.

Of course, Fang Yingwu didn't want negative public opinion, and hurriedly explained: "At the beginning, my father was imprisoned, and in order to rescue my father, I had to deal with Liu Gelao, and then I had this agreement, and now I really can't regret it." ”

Li Dongyang suddenly sighed when he heard this: "It's excusable like this, no wonder you, why don't you regret this body when the son of man is filial, the righteousness is now, it should be like this." ”

Fang Yingwu was very sincere again: "There is indeed a hardship in the late life, thank you Li Gong for forgiveness!" Otherwise, it's really shameless to come to see Li Gong again! ”

Li Dongyang was slightly surprised, what surprised him was not the Fang family's refusal to kiss, but Fang Yingwu's attitude.

A slap doesn't make a sound, the family affair is a matter of both parties, and it is only in the initial contact stage. Whether the Fang family agrees or not, it is really normal, and Li Dongyang is mentally prepared.

But this attitude made Li Dongyang very strange. It stands to reason that although Fang Qingzhi's status is slightly lower than that of him Li Dongyang, one is a seven-grade editor, and the other is a five-grade servant, but there is basically no essential difference.

The difference between editing and serving is nothing to the Hanlin, so the difference between the two can only be said to be the difference between the newcomer and the old, relatively equal.

Fang Yingwu came to see him Li Dongyang as Fang Qingzhi's son, only as a junior. But Li Dongyang felt that Fang Yingwu treated himself as if he was a big man in the imperial court.

What should Fang Yingwu look like when he treats people and things, Li Dongyang has seen it at the Hanlin banquet, and he deserves the words neither humble nor arrogant, but this little brother treats himself differently and respectfully, which really makes Li Dongyang feel a little flattered.

It is not strange that many people are courteous, Fang Yingwu's attitude has a very good effect, at least much greater than the effect of the previous slapping words. And Li Dongyang boasts that he still has some eyesight, Fang Yingwu's humble performance can't be faked, it is indeed from the heart, and his regret about not being able to get married is not fake, it is indeed very annoyed.

At this time, Fang Yingwu was about to say goodbye, and Li Dongyang said: "If people don't believe in it, I naturally won't persuade you to break your trust in others." ”

Fang Yingwu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, when he came to see Li Dongyang today, he actually waited for this sentence, so that the matter is over, and he will concentrate on waiting for Liu Mian's news in the future.

Then Li Dongyang suddenly said: "But if you really have the heart to marry my Li family, if I think about it, maybe there will be a turnaround." ”

What the? Li Dongyang still refuses to let go? Fang Yingwu was stunned, his main purpose today was to refuse the family affair without making enemies. It seems that the goal has been achieved just now, but why does Li Dongyang want to continue in the blink of an eye?

Li Dongyang only thought that Fang Yingwu was in a daze because of the surprise in his heart, so he smiled and said nothing. Such a smart, capable, and talented young man, and sincerely respect himself, it would be a pity if he couldn't become his son-in-law, of course he had to try again.

Fang Yingwu smiled bitterly again and again, "How can he be born in the late life, which attracted Lord Li's blue eyes." ”

Until he left the gate of Li's house, Fang Yingwu was still puzzled, could it be that today's performance was too much, but it inspired Li Dongyang's love and talent? If this matter continues, it will be very difficult for him to be caught in the middle.

Judging from the historical records, Li Dongyang's strategy and forbearance are no less than Liu Mian's, although the Tao is different, but it is the same tenacity.

Liu Mian can stand tall in the siege of a gang of righteous and clear streams, and Li Dongyang is also a person who can stay firm when treachery and evil are rampant. So it is very suffocating to be sandwiched between Li Dongyang and Liu Mian, two resilient characters.

Fang Yingwu had no one to confide in the distress in his heart, and he should have to go through the trouble to explain it to Liu Mian - otherwise Liu Mian would have a misunderstanding again, thinking that he still wanted to continue to ride on the wall and watch, and it would be bad to slap him in anger.

Thinking of this, Fang Ying's head was as big as a bucket. (To be continued......)
