In the early morning, a morning sun entered the house through the window lattice.

Guo Tian slowly opened his eyes, and said with a happy face, "After a night of cultivation, I finally replenished the Yuan Force. ”

"Big ...... Young master, I'm sorry. ”

A timid voice came from the side.

Guo Tian turned his head and saw Xiaocao rubbing the corners of his clothes, looking at him uneasily.

A pair of small eyes, with obvious dark circles, obviously did not sleep well all night......

"Okay, I won't dismiss you, go and call Shopkeeper Li to me. ”

Guo Tian felt a burst of amusement in his heart, but he still kept a straight face and said, "Remember, there is no next time." ”

"Young Master, thank you. ”

"No, the little maid won't dare in the future. ”

Xiaocao burst into tears with excitement and kept bowing to Guo Tian.

The more Xiaocao thought about it last night, the more scared she became, what if Guo Tian got angry and dismissed her? My father needed money to see a doctor, and my mother couldn't make a lot of money by weaving bamboo baskets, and if she hadn't been a maid as a subsidy, the family would not have been able to live at all.

"Alright, let's get to work. Guo Tian said while wearing his coat.

"Yes, yes, little maid, let's go. ”

Xiaocao wiped away a handful of tears and hurriedly ran out of the house.

When Guo Tian packed up and walked out of the door, Li Shun was already waiting in the courtyard.

"Young Master, what do you command?"

Seeing Guo Tian come out, Li Shun hurriedly ran over.

"There is one thing you need to do, you take a few guys and send Li Degui and Zhang Feicai to the government for me, along with the confession they wrote, as well as the flat pole and oil outside the side door. handed Li Shun the confessions of Li Degui and Zhang Feicai, Guo Tian said.

"Yes, young master. ”

Li Shun took the confession and didn't say much.

At this time, Li Degui and Zhang Feicai woke up early, and the grimace mask was also taken off

The two of them had rags stuffed in their mouths, and they wanted to shout with a whine~, but they couldn't make any sound.

Obviously, after Li Degui and Zhang Feicai woke up, they shouted and screamed, and were ordered by Li Shun to gag their mouths.

For Li Shun, Guo Tian became more and more satisfied.

I didn't expect the shopkeeper who arranged casually to be really a talent.

Li Shun looks honest, but he is wise and foolish.

Clever, obedient, not much talking, and the pharmacy is also well organized, it is really a rare helper.

Seeing that Li Shun began to arrange his buddies, he took Li Degui and Zhang Feicai off the poplar tree.

Guo Tian didn't plan to participate more, but put on a posture and practiced the "Great Demon Ape Boxing Method".

After beating once, drink the brewed potion.

Guo Tian continued to practice again......

In the capital, deep in Huangxuan Street, there is a huge courtyard.

Outside the courtyard, the high wall is encircled, the green willow hangs around, there are three hanging flower gatehouses, and the verandah is copied on all sides. In the courtyard, the Yong road is connected, the mountains and stones are embellished, and the plaque of "Yi Red Fast Green" is hung on the five hugging buildings. The whole courtyard is magnificent, graceful and luxurious, the garden is splendid, clear and exquisite, the backyard is full of roses, treasures, and a pool.

This mansion belongs to the Nine Princes.

The younger brother of the Emperor of Qi is also the most trusted person by the emperor.

In the main hall in the center of the mansion, there was a group of people drinking tea and chatting at this time.

"Lord Wang, look at the poems and articles written by Lin Er, they are not bad, right?" said one of the dignified noblewomen. But it is Cai Rongrong, the eldest lady of the General's Mansion, Cai Rongrong is obviously dressed up carefully today, covered in jewels and a little powder.

"Well, yes, the penmanship is flexible, the scaling is effective, and I obviously have mastered the doorway. ”

"The essay is also excellent, and it can be seen that the writer is quick-witted. ”

"It's really good, with Guo Lin's level, it's enough to enter the Wenge Academy. ”

"In this way, I can let Guo Lin report to the Wenge Academy tomorrow. ”

A middle-aged man flipped through a wad of rice paper, exclaiming one after another.

The middle-aged man with a majestic face, sitting on the first seat of the main hall, is the owner of the mansion, Zhao Hongwen, the ninth prince.

Hearing that Zhao Hongwen promised Guo Lin to enter the Wenge Courtyard, Cai Rongrong hurriedly thanked, "Thank you, Lord Wang!"

Guo Lin, who was standing behind Cai Rongrong, immediately showed ecstasy on his face.

Since he was a child, Guo Lin was afraid that he would not be able to practice martial arts through hardships, he would not be able to participate in the martial arts examination, and he would not have any ink in his stomach, so he naturally could not participate in the imperial examination and could not enter the court as an official. However, the laws of Qi stipulate that the children of nobles cannot inherit the title of the family if they do not have merit and fame (whether they are Wenju people or Wuju people). This time, relying on the articles written by Guo Tian before, Guo Lin finally entered the Wenge Academy.

And entering the Bunkaku Academy is equivalent to gaining fame.

Guo Lin can inherit Guo Shengze's viscount title and become a nobleman.

"No thanks, being able to enter the Wenge Courtyard depends on Guo Lin's true skills. Zhao Hongwen put down the rice paper in his hand and suddenly asked, "By the way, it is said that the eldest prince of your mansion is good at painting Buddha statues, and the wife of this king is very respectful of Buddha, I don't know if I can ask for a Buddha statue." Originally, Linglian had already begged for one for her mother, and her mother liked it too, but she was begged by the queen's mother. ”

"This ...... This ......"

Cai Rongrong looked embarrassed and stumped.

"What's wrong, it's inconvenient?"

Zhao Hongwen frowned and asked dissatisfiedly.

"No... No, in fact, when Lin Er came, he had already begged his eldest brother for it. It's just that my kid is arrogant, he has never liked to make friends with powerful people, he doesn't want to be motivated, and he spends all day in the mud. Hearing that the Nine Princes begged for the Buddha statue, he didn't care about it, and he didn't care about it after drawing three strokes, he was really embarrassed to take it out and offer it ugly. Cai Rongrong hurriedly explained, and did not forget to secretly belittle Guo Tian.

"Oh, since there is Guo Jushi's manuscript, can you take it out and let the old man see one or two?"

Without waiting for Zhao Hongwen to speak, an old monk next to him took the lead in speaking.

The old monk had a pair of long white eyebrows, but his complexion was ruddy and smooth, without a trace of wrinkles.

It is Master Hui Ke, the presiding officer of the Great Bright Temple in Xishan in Beijing.

Master Hui Ke's Buddhism is profound, and there are many believers in the capital. Although Cai Rongrong was the wife of a general, she didn't dare to offend Master Hui Ke, so she hurriedly turned back to Guo Lin and said, "Lin'er, quickly take out your eldest brother's manuscript and show it to Master Hui Ke." ”

"Yes, Mother. ”

Guo Lin didn't dare to slack off.

walked up to Zhao Hongwen and Master Hui Ke, and gently placed the roll of rice paper in his hand on the coffee table between the two. Carefully pulled, the rice paper was spread on the coffee table by Guo Lin, revealing the hidden picture scroll inside the rice paper.

"Huh~" Master Hui Ke looked at it, but he couldn't take his eyes off it.

I saw only three strokes on the rice paper, but a complete Maitreya Buddha was outlined. The lines are smooth and solid, the Buddha statue is thick and solemn, and the compassion of the Buddha statue is vividly expressed, without reading a large number of Buddhist scriptures, without an in-depth understanding of the Dharma, it is impossible to draw such an excellent Buddha statue.

After watching for a long time, Master Hui Ke reluctantly raised his head and said to Zhao Hongwen, "Lord, can this Buddha statue be given to Lao Ge? The understanding of Buddhism contained in the Buddha statue is very helpful to Lao Ge's practice, and Lao Ge is willing to pay 100 gold yuan to buy a Buddha statue, and ask the prince to cut his love." ”

"No, no, what Buddha statue does the master need to study the Dharma? Isn't the Buddha in the master's heart, and the Buddha statue is still kept to influence us mortals. Zhao Hongwen hurriedly waved his hand, but muttered in his heart, "The Buddha statue was given to you, how can I explain it to my wife?"

"Amitabha, it's the old man who is in love. ”

Hui Ke is worthy of being a master, and he instantly suppressed the greed in his heart.

Master Hui Ke paid 100 gold yuan to buy a Buddha statue.

The Nine Princes have not yet agreed.

The most important thing is that this Buddha statue only took Guo Tian a breath. And Cai Rongrong and Guo Lin didn't see the extraordinaryness of the Buddha statue, just now Cai Rongrong was still in front of Master Hui Ke and the Nine Princes, constantly belittling Guo Tian and the Buddha statue.

In the blink of an eye, everything changed.

Cai Rongrong and Guo Lin only felt the hot heat on their faces.

This face can be described as crackling, if it weren't for Guo Lin, he would still enter the Wenge Academy.

The two had already left under the pretext.
