Chapter 068: The Scholar
Although he was a little reluctant in his heart, Jiang Fengjin still handed over the written article to Feng Lanyu the night before returning to the academy.
Feng Lanyu picked it up and read it for a while, she couldn't tell if the article was good or not, but the views expressed in the article were really good, and Feng Lanyu was very satisfied.
Not everyone values flowery rhetoric, and some half-hidden old gentlemen pay more attention to people's character and the validity of their opinions.
Feng Lanyu had some thoughts in her heart, but she didn't tell Jiang Fengjin, she put the article away in the drawer of her study, and boasted: "The article is very well written, it seems that the homework you said is acceptable, you didn't lie to me." ”
In order to write this article, Jiang Fengjin didn't sleep for a day and a night, checked many ancient books, and read many current affairs articles, which is equivalent to making up for his homework.
To tell the truth, he himself didn't think that his article was well written, because it was written for Feng Lanyu, so the words in the article were even a little sharp, but I was afraid that some gentlemen from the academy would read it and say that he was radical.
He suspected that Feng Lanyu couldn't understand it at all, and praised him for the sake of taking care of each other's face.
Feng Lanyu took out a sachet from the drawer again, walked over and handed it to him: "This is what I asked Dr. Rong to concoct, it has the effect of calming the mind and concentrating, you go to the academy and put it under the pillow to help you sleep." ”
Jiang Fengjin glanced at Feng Lanyu suspiciously, and took it silently.
What I was thinking in my heart was that Xiao Wu actually told the young lady everything, even his insomnia at night, and said that this Xiao Wu should also be beaten.
Feng Lanyu thought that the fifteen or sixteen-year-old child had to prepare for next year's exam, and he was stressed and did not sleep well, and he was estimated to have a nervous breakdown and a short temper in the long run.
She tried this sachet herself for a few days, and felt that the effect was good, so she asked Dr. Rong to make more than a dozen of them, and gave them to He Haoqian and Jiang Fengyi.
I also gave two to Mr. Jiang.
Jiang Fengjin didn't know, he thought it was unique to him, and he was slightly moved in his heart.
"You're going back to the academy in the afternoon?" Feng Lanyu asked him.
Jiang Fengjin nodded.
"Everything? I'll ask Mama Wang to prepare new autumn clothes and bedding for you, and bring them over in the afternoon. ”
Jiang Fengjin continued to nod and did not speak.
After a while, Xiao Li walked in and said, "Young lady, Jiang Liu is here." ”
Jiang Fengjin turned his head to look, and saw a burly young man standing at the door of the study, he was wearing the clothes of the Hou Mansion, his muscles were tight, even his sleeves were bulging, there was a not very obvious scar on his forehead, and his eyes were sharp, he was the kind of fierce appearance that when he stood on the street, the people around him automatically retreated ten steps away.
It's just that when did their Hou Mansion have such a family? He wasn't impressed.
Jiang Fengjin put the sachet into his sleeve pocket and said to Feng Lanyu: "Since the young lady has something, then I will go back first." ”
Feng Lanyu stood up and said, "Don't worry, I still have something to tell you." ”
Jiang Fengjin stood still in place.
Jiang Liu walked into the study and saluted them: "Young lady, third young master." ”
Feng Lanyu looked Jiang Liu up and down, the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became, and said with a smile: "Not bad, Jiang Hu is really reliable." ”
Jiang Liu: "......"
He is also a team member of the guards of the Hou Mansion, so the young lady should not think that he is just an ordinary family member transferred from Zhuangzi, right?
Feng Lanyu felt that none of that mattered, the important thing was that he was tall and strong enough and fierce enough.
"I heard that you are good at martial arts?" Feng Lanyu asked.
Jiang Liu nodded and said modestly, "It's okay." ”
To be the head of the palace guards of the Marquis of Wenchang's mansion, of course, martial arts are one in a hundred, after all, he has a hundred government soldiers under his hands.
It's just that there are too many capable people in the Hou Mansion, at least the secret guards around the old Hou Ye are much more powerful than them, and Jiang Liu really feels that he is far behind.
But Feng Lanyu is already very satisfied.
She said to Jiang Fengjin, who was standing on the side as a transparent person: "Third brother, Xiaoliu will follow you in the future." ”
Jiang Fengjin: "......"
Jiang Liu: "......"
Both of them looked dazed and shocked.
Jiang Liu thought that the young lady had found him to arrange an important task.
Jiang Feng is ......
He looked at Jiang Liu, looked at the scar on his face, and then looked at his strong and burly figure, and said with some difficulty: "He...... Follow me...... What does that mean? ”
Coachman? Or a guard?
Feng Lanyu said: "It's to replace Xiao Wu, when you are a scholar, accompany you to the academy to study, and he will follow you in the two years you have been studying." ”
Jiang Feng entered his pupils and shook: "Book, scholar? ”
Feng Lanyu nodded, seeing that he was so shocked, he was a little puzzled: "Yes, what?" Could it be that the academy still has special requirements for scholars? ”
She went out of her way to find out, but she didn't.
These young masters' scholars, who say they are scholars, are actually helping to endorse books and serving the young master's daily life by the way, and they are generally the young masters' attendants arranged by the house.
Although Jiang Liu looks a little fierce and has a strong figure, standing among the students of the academy, he may be a little abrupt.
But the academy doesn't care, so why bother with these details?
Jiang Fengjin: "......"
He was so shocked that he couldn't maintain the indifferent expression on his face.
He looked at Jiang Liu, then again, and again, his expression indescribable.
Jiang Liu is also very embarrassed, he is dignified and guarded, and he has followed the prince to a lot of tasks, if it weren't for the fact that there are many things in the Hou Mansion and can't leave, he is ready to go to the border to fight, and he is bent on making war exploits, so that he can be crowned a general and glorify his ancestors.
Now, the young lady actually wants him to be a scholar for the third young master?
Jiang Liu also looked at the thin third young master, it was not that he was high-minded, but that he had been following the prince before, and later obeyed the deployment of Mr. Jiang, and he was doing the affairs of military generals, and now let him follow the thin scholars, go to the academy, move books for people, and serve him, isn't it embarrassing for him?
Since ancient times, civil and military affairs have not been combined, don't young ladies know?
If the third young master falls one day, he kindly stepped forward to help him, but what if he broke his master's arm?
"Young lady," Jiang Liu hesitated and said, "I'm afraid this task is not suitable for my subordinates......"
After all, Simen is the highest university in the capital, so if he is a rough person, don't go in and be embarrassed, right?
Feng Lanyu was surprised: "How come? Jiang Hu said that when you were a child, you studied in a private school for a few years, and you were very good at reading and writing. ”
Jiang Liu: "......"
So what does the young lady mean is that if you can read and write, you can be a scholar?
Feng Lanyu patted Jiang Fengjin on the shoulder and said, sighing sadly: "Third brother, Jiang Liu is very capable, with him, even the coachman and escort are saved, don't be unhappy, now the situation in the Hou Mansion is not as good as before, we should save some, you understand the difficulties of our family." ”
Jiang Fengjin: "......"
He didn't occupy the resources of the Hou Mansion before, and he never used the coachmen and guards of the Hou Mansion.
It's just that Feng Lanyu said this, and Jiang Liu and Jiang Fengjin couldn't say anything more.
Jiang Liu was shocked in his heart, and thought that the situation in the Hou Mansion had improved, but it turned out that he was still not optimistic?
In order to save manpower costs, even his team is going to be a scholar for the young master.
This matter must not be known to the soldiers of the other mansions, otherwise his reputation will be ruined.
