Regarding Shen Yichen's humility, Sun Tixue smiled and didn't speak, in fact, he called it like this, which also had a bit of a trick.

Because at the family banquet of the Chengguo Mansion, Sun Tixue's impression of Shen Yichen was not very good.

The root cause is that when he was reciting poems, Shen Yichen looked like a starving ghost reincarnated, staring at the dishes on the table and constantly swallowing saliva, which was really insulting!

However, Shen Yichen's performance later responded to it, which can be said to have greatly changed Sun Tixue. He didn't expect that a student who hadn't even been admitted to the Tongsheng exam would advance and retreat in such a big scene, and all kinds of responses and counterattacks were hearty.

Especially when the last song "Linjiang Immortal" came out, compared with young scholars, they have been "old men" for more than half a year and the officialdom has been up and down for half a lifetime. For the indifferent and free meaning described in the words, I feel very deeply.

It was precisely with this good impression that Sun Tixue took the initiative to stay and wait after learning that Shen Yichen was coming to visit Lin Zhen today.

"In that case, Shen Xiaoyou shouldn't have a word yet, then the old man will call you Yichen."

"The late life has not yet taken the table word, the great grandmaster, please feel free."

Seeing that the two of them began to chat, Lin Zhen then quipped: "Now that the autumn breeze is easy to get cold, even if you forget the New Year, you should go to the house first, don't be in a hurry at this time." ”

"Haha, what Brother Dunsheng said is very true."

Sun Tixue was smiling, and he could see that he was really in a good mood today.

"Please."

Lin Zhen, the champion of the capital, said and made a gesture of please.

Seeing Lin Zhen and Sun Tixue turn around and enter the main hall, Li Tingxiu approached Shen Yichen and asked quietly, "Yichen, when did you get acquainted with the Great Grandmaster?" ”

Li Tingxiu was full of questions at the moment, and Shen Yichen seemed to be very familiar with Sun Tixue. But the question is, with the status of the Great Grandmaster, how can he be so close to a schoolchild, it is impossible to meet under normal circumstances, what happened?

"At the grandfather's family banquet, I was at the same table with the great grandmaster, but I didn't have any words."

"That's all?"

"That's all."

Not to mention Li Tingxiu, even Shen Yichen himself is strange. When he was at the same table before, Sun Tixue looked at him with disdain, and applauded Zeng Mengjian, but now his attitude is a 180-degree turn?

Several people entered the main hall and sat down in turn, and Lin Zhen, the champion of the princess, was the first to speak: "Wei Chu, my hometown Zhangzhou has been goodbye, and four years have passed unconsciously. ”

"Yes, when you resigned and returned to your hometown to run a school, I was going to Yingtian to teach. After a hurried goodbye, it has been four years. ”

When Li Tingxiu said this, his tone was embarrassed and emotional. In ancient times, limited by the geographical conditions of transportation, this was the case, sometimes a hurried farewell, and we didn't know what year or month it was when we met again.

And when this passage is heard in Shen Yichen's ears, it can be called a huge amount of information. He originally thought that Mr. Li Tingxiu and Lin Zhen were at most in the same year as the imperial examination, but now it seems that it is far more than that, they are still friends in the same village?

"This time, I came to Yingtian to give a lecture and temporarily served as a professor at Zhaowen Academy, so I will have the opportunity to move around more in the future."

"Wei Chu, I won't tell you anything, after resigning, I think back to the time when I took the entrance examination and drank and talked happily in the Beijing Fellow Townsman Hall, I miss it very much."

Lin Zhen may not have seen Li Tingxiu for several years, and the topic is more about reminiscing about the past, and his words are casual and free.

However, this kind of behavior is also very in line with Lin Zhen's character, you must know that he can be the champion and resign and return to his hometown to run a school and teach, such a realm of indifference to fame and fortune, ordinary people really can't do it.

"This kind of thing is called an old man."

Sun Tixue interjected a sentence at the right time, and his words and deeds did not have any great grandmaster frame.

"Of course, it's better to be alone than to be happy."

"Haha."

……

Several senior bigwigs talked happily with each other, and Shen Yichen, who was sitting at the end, could only laugh embarrassedly. After all, the gap between age and identity is too big, and he can't interject at all in this kind of scene, and he doesn't dare to say more.

After chatting a few words, Lin Zhen saw Shen Yichen, who was a little cramped, and then remembered that he had nothing to say today.

"Wei Chu, you said in the prayer post that I should meet Yichen, what is the matter?"

Hearing Lin Zhen finally mention his name, Shen Yichen's spirit came, in fact, he was also curious about what Li Tingxiu wanted to do.

"It's a shame to say that as a teacher of Yichen, he is only shallow in the scriptures. Next year will not only be the hospital examination, but also the year of the township examination, so I would like to ask Brother Dunsheng to serve as Yichen's karma teacher and point out the scriptures for him. ”

Just as there were teachers of different grades and subjects in modern times, there were also teachers of different periods in ancient times. Generally speaking, it can be divided into three main periods, namely the teacher, the karma teacher, and the seat teacher.

Mengshi is a teacher like Li Tingxiu, who teaches students basic enlightenment education, which can also be called a school teacher. Under normal circumstances, Mongolian teachers are all children or talents, and the education is in remote and backward places, and even the elderly who have not entered the school can also serve as Mongolian teachers.

There are very few people who serve as teachers in the name of meritorious service. It can also be seen from the side that the educational resources of the Chengguo Mansion are top-notch, and how collapsed Shen Yichen was before.

There are also two types of teachers, one is the advanced version of the teacher, who teaches higher education. The other is to teach students according to their aptitude, or to accept them as disciples when they meet a conscience.

Like Lin Zhen, he belongs to a highly accomplished boss who accepts disciples, and preaches and teaches as a teacher.

The last teacher is more special, it hardly teaches anything in terms of knowledge, but it is the most important teacher-student relationship in ancient times.

Because the seat teacher is the chief examiner of your imperial examination, when he selects you, he automatically becomes your seat teacher.

Compared with the teacher and the teacher, the teacher has the dual identity of a teacher and a career leader. What is the future career of life, to a large extent, is bound to the teacher, the two sides can be described as a community of interests, and the relationship is naturally intimate.

In addition, there are some titles such as "Fang Shi", "Palace Test Emperor Master" and so on, which are not as important as these "three divisions".

Shen Yichen never expected that Li Tingxiu brought himself over, and he actually wanted Lin Zhen to become his own righteous teacher!

This is the champion of the Ming Dynasty, in the future generations, it is equivalent to a doctoral supervisor of Tsinghua University and Peking University, to be a primary school teacher of his own, I can't imagine it!

Not to mention Shen Yichen, when Li Tingxiu said this, Lin Zhen and Sun Tixue, who were present, had expressions on their faces frozen for two seconds.

Good fellow, you old boy really dare to think about it......

"At the beginning of the Wei Dynasty, although I returned to my hometown to run a school and teach, there was no precedent for accepting schoolchildren as disciples. For Yi Chen, after hearing the words of "Linjiang Immortal", he also appreciated it very much, and even planned to invite him to participate in this year's Winter Solstice Poetry Conference. ”

"But if you want to become my disciple, you can't just rely on a song "Linjiang Immortal", Yichen has to come up with other knowledge to impress me."

After finishing speaking, Lin Zhen set his eyes on Shen Yichen, and there was a sense of test in his eyes.

Seeing this, Shen Yichen stood up and saluted Lin Zhen and said, "Late students are brave, and please take the top public examination." ”

Li Tingxiu handed the opportunity to himself, if he was indifferent and didn't know how to grasp it, it would really disappoint his husband's hard work.

To become a disciple of the champion prince, no matter how much you can learn, the help in terms of contacts and career is immeasurable!
