As the guests arrived, the sun had risen and the golden sun shone across the farmhouse.

The guests of the master and apprentice were combined, and there were about 20 people in total.

Jiang Mo's farmhouse seems to be just a farmhouse yard in appearance, but it covers a huge area, whether it is a dignitary or a commoner in cloth, the main hall of the family is built as big as possible, and people think that the main hall is the face, not small.

The main hall of the farmhouse is not small, and it is also a typical hall style at this time, with no wall on the south side facing the courtyard gate, which is equivalent to a semi-open-air building, and the situation in the hall is clearly visible.

I saw a red felt about one meter wide in the middle of the hall, spread from the entrance of the hall to the front of the main seat.

On both sides of the red felt, there are two columns of six rows of long cases and couches, each of which is full of melons, fruits and wines.

Jiang Mo's peers are all old now, some of them are in good health, and some are not in good health, and for various reasons, there are not many times for everyone to gather.

Knowing that the old fathers were worried about catching up with their old friends, Xiao Shiren, the squire of the military department, Xie Ting, the general of the Zuo Yulin Army, Song Xuanru, the young secretary of Dali Temple, Han Jing, the squire of the criminal department, and Feng Tao, the middle of the imperial history, were also interested in not bothering.

They are officials in the same dynasty, and they are all bigwigs and chiefs of their respective departments, usually Rao rao does not look up and look down, but they don't dare to get together like this with great fanfare.

Today's situation is exceptional, and it is rare for the five incumbent officials to get together in regular clothes.

But not to mention that the political position may not be consistent, sometimes the official position is high, and every word and deed is inevitably interpreted in depth, and they are usually more cautious, and today they said a word or two, and they stood in twos and threes.

Xiao Shiren, the squire of the Ministry of War, and Han Jing, the squire of the Criminal Department, both of them belong to the deputy governors of the six departments under the jurisdiction of Shangshu Province, and they usually have a lot of intersections, but they have their own division of duties, so they naturally stand together and speak.

Xie Ting, the general of Zuo Yulin's army, claimed to be unfluent in literature and ink, but he stood with Master Shouzhi, and he also talked about Buddhism.

Yushitai is the central supervisory body, and Feng Tao is the prefect of Yushitai, probably thinking that he has a special identity, and seeing that Master Shouzhi was pulled over by Xie Ting, the general of Zuo Yulin's army, he actually found Liu Wensu to talk together.

Although the age difference between the two is more than ten or twenty years old, but fortunately, they seem to be about the same generation, one is a supervisor and the other is a counselor, both of them are independent of the existence of hundreds of officials, and they don't feel discordant when they get together, but they just let other ordinary officials see it, and they are a little flustered, and they don't know what the two sides are planning.

Song Xuanru, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, was left alone, but he didn't feel embarrassed, although he was not a noble official, he usually liked to mix in the literati circle, and he admired talented young talents very much.

Among the juniors, there are Liu Chenxing and Cui Yao, two champions, as well as Liu Qingshan and Du Yuanlang, two young descendants on the gold list, Song Xuanru immediately went to the juniors and talked with them about poetry and fu.

With Cui Yao, who is good at poetry, Du Yuanlang and Liu Qingshan's poetry talent is also good, and Xue Cheng, Cai Qi and others are now repeatedly off the list, and they are very eager to be appreciated by nobles, Liu Chenxing didn't join in the excitement, just stood by and listened, and gave up the opportunity to talk with Song Xuanru, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

Xiao Xu, the eldest grandson of Xunguo, and Xie Ji, the eldest grandson of Jiang Guo, are both men and shadows, and their identities are similar to the way to enter the office, and the other is the male version of Xiao Sisi's iceberg beauty, one is the son of a powerful man at a glance, and there is an unruly unruliness in the gangsterism, the two stand from afar and watch coldly, although there is no communication, it looks unexpectedly harmonious.

For a while, I saw Yan Yan smiling in the hall, and everyone was happy.

When Jiang Mo wrote the invitation at that time, he introduced each other to her one by one, and today he introduced her one by one, Liu Chenxing understood Jiang Mo's intentions.

She listened to Xue Cheng, Cai Qi and others talk about poetry to Song Xuanru, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and she also secretly paid attention to the situation in the hall, paying attention to who was standing with which people, although she couldn't hear what they were talking about, but occasionally just a few words, as well as the identity of the people who gathered together, Liu Chenxing still nodded understandingly.

At this time, the housekeeper Uncle Zhang came to the hall to remind him that the auspicious time was approaching and it was time to bow to the teacher.

The auspicious time is arranged at the beginning of the afternoon, and the praiser who presides over the apprenticeship ceremony, Jiang Mo invited Master Shanzhen, the abbot of Guanyin Temple on the Leyou Plain, to serve as the one.

According to the practice of previous years, women will go to the empress on an errand after the title of the gold list, Liu Chenxing is at the top of the gold list, and it is almost certain that she will go to the empress's side on an errand.

The background is clean, and there is no power behind him, so he can only be loyal to the empress, and at this time he should maintain his advantages.

Jiang Mo is worthy of being a great official who worships the three products, even if he has resigned from the official position for many years, he has been idle for many years, but his political acumen is still there, Rao is Liu Chenxing, a disciple, is just a small Jinbang Jinshi, but he also thinks about her as clearly as possible, and when he finds out that he has done so much, he can't help but sigh in his heart, sure enough, accepting disciples is trouble, and he also accepted a female disciple, which is simply asking for trouble for himself.

Of course, Jiang Mo's happy feelings are not enough for outsiders, but I only heard the housekeeper Uncle Zhang say that the auspicious time is coming, and everyone took their seats on both sides of the red felt one after another.

Before long, the guests sat down.

The master Jiang Mo sat down on the main seat above him, and Master Shanzhen, the praiser, stood on the side, holding one hundred and zero white sandalwood Buddhist beads, and said in a loud voice: "The so-called teacher, preaching, teaching, and solving doubts, today-"

However, the word "today" came out, and only one voice hurriedly shouted: "What a worship ceremony!" No way! ”

The voice was hurried and brutal, obviously coming to make trouble.

Liu Chenxing was standing at the entrance of the main hall, frowned when he heard the sound, and turned to look over.

I saw that at the door of the farmhouse, a man in his fifties wearing a crimson brocade robe walked in first, and there was a gray-haired seventy-year-old man behind him.

The man in the crimson brocade robe looked at him in his fifties, his body was already fat, but his steps were vigorous, and he walked quickly through the courtyard far ahead of everyone.

Seeing that the host and guests were seated, there was a literati in men's clothes standing at the entrance of the hall, and at a glance, it was clear that this was the female disciple Jiang Mo wanted to accept - Liu Chenxing.

When the person came to cross the threshold of the main hall in the next step, he relied on his wide body and fat body, and bumped into Liu Chenxing with his shoulder, but he didn't know it, so he only continued to walk quickly into the hall, and said with a cross-handed salute: "Third uncle, you don't know that the Huiguo Mansion will accept apprentices as soon as it sounds, we won't admit it!" ”
