Chapter 256: Half of the thanks

At this time, Lin Youxing glanced at the Wen family, and then replied to Lin Shuran with a smile: "Your eldest uncle is known as the book saint Wen Shangqing, but his friends all call him a 'book ghost', as long as you can tell your uncle to help, it will be easier to ask for someone."

"Thank you, Dad, I'll find a way to ask my uncle for help!" There was a way to invite Mr. for the academy, Lin Shuran didn't stay in the Taifu Mansion for long, she had to hurry back to make preparations, and strive to move her eldest uncle Wen Shangqing to help with one blow. Five

It's just that after she left the Taifu Mansion, the Wen family looked at Lin Youxing very dissatisfiedly and said, "How can you let Sister Ran do this, don't think that I don't know, how many people sent by the imperial court have not invited my eldest brother and his friends, and even you have been there four or five times over the years, and you have never even entered the gate, aren't you embarrassed the child!"

Lin Youxing said with a serious face: "Don't underestimate your daughter, it's because of something that no one else can do, I want to try her ability, if she can't even invite the gentleman of the academy, I think she shouldn't interfere in this academy as soon as possible, since she has to do it herself, she must have some ability."

Wen Shi couldn't help but shake her head worriedly after hearing this, she didn't understand why the Queen Mother suddenly ordered to run a academy, and let her daughter be the head of the academy, in a trance, she seemed to remember that many years ago, there was also a person who wanted to run a academy and serve as a female mountain chief, but she didn't remember who that person was for a while.

As soon as she got home, Lin Shuran began to ask people to inquire about the names that Lin Youxing told her, and even she went to Mr. Xixi in the mansion, Mr. Bai, to ask him if he knew about these people.

Mr. Bai laughed and said, "How can there be any literati who do not know the name of the "Seven Magi of Madness", they are all brilliant in literature, talented, informal, uninhibited, and can be literate and martial, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all superior, but they have a strange temperament, are not very gregarious, do not like to make friends with others, do not like to chase fame and fortune, and rarely ask about worldly matters."

Hearing Mr. Bai say the same, Lin Shuran knew that these people were not so easy to invite, but her father Lin Youxing said that the key person was her eldest uncle, as long as she said that her eldest uncle would help, things would take a turn for the better, but if she rashly went to the Wen family now, according to her eldest uncle's character, she probably wouldn't let her enter the door, so she had to think of a different way.

Since her eldest uncle is a sage of calligraphy, I heard her mother Wen Shi say before that what he likes most is to study all kinds of ancient books and be the best at calligraphy.

Whether it is her or the previous Lin Shuran, they can write a good hand, this calligraphy skills are rare and more than ten years, and one of the ways she chooses to meditate in modern times is calligraphy and painting, even if it is not to the point of a great calligrapher, but whether it is seal script, official script, regular script or cursive script, line calligraphy, she can copy the hand chase, making it difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.

"Lingqin, grind!" With an idea in her heart, Lin Shuran couldn't hold it back, so she decided to throw a stone and ask for directions.

When Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye came to see Lin Shuran, they found that she was still writing hard in front of the bookcase, and neither of them disturbed her, just waiting quietly on the side.

After Lin Shuran finished writing the last word, he looked up at them and said, "I have something I want to entrust you to help me do!"

"Mother just commands!" The two of them said solemnly to her.

Lin Shuran put the written paper into an envelope, and then handed it to the two of them and said: "This is a strange book that can also be called the Book of Heaven, called "Sushu", the whole volume is only more than 1,300 words, and there is only the first half of this envelope, you take it and give it to the little master of the Wen family, Wen Junqing, that is, your little cousin, and tell him that this is half of my thank you gift to the Wen family, and I will write it to him again after I think of the second half of the volume, and there is a secret precept in this book: "Do not pass it on to people who are not Taoist, not godly, not holy and unvirtuous; If it were not him, he would suffer from it; If you don't preach it, you will suffer from it." 」

Lin Shuran deliberately said mysteriously and strangely, Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye also became cautious after hearing it, Xu Mingchen took the envelope handed over by Lin Shuran and put it in his arms, and then the two went to the scholar's house in the university.

After Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye arrived at the Wen family, the little guy guarding the door took the post and hurriedly went to the house to find Wen Junqing

It's so easy to enter, so when Wen Junqing heard that the Xu brothers were coming to look for him, he quickly went to the gate to meet them.

"I'm really sorry, my father's rules, I'm afraid I can't invite you into the house to take a seat!" Wen Junqing looked at Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye apologetically, it was too rude for the guests to come to the door but not to enter the house, but no one in the family dared to disobey Wen Shangqing's orders and rules, and Wen Junqing was also very embarrassed.

Before Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye came to the Wen family, Lin Shuran had already told them about the rules of the Wen family, and they had been living in the capital, the strange hospitality of the Wen family and the strange temper and rules of the scholars of the Wen family, they had also heard of it, and they didn't feel that they were being neglected, anyway, even if the emperor came, it was estimated that the treatment would be similar to them.

"It's okay, my brother came to the door today to send a thank you gift, last time my third brother was injured, the Wen family sent medicinal materials to treat the injury, my Xu family is very grateful, my mother said that the family sent gold and silver vulgar things for fear that my uncle would not like it, so I gave the first half of the strange book as half of the thank you gift to the Wen family, and when my mother remembered that the second half of the volume would be sent again." Xu Mingchen said Lin Shuran's words to Wen Junqing, and then took out the envelope from his arms and handed it to him.

Half a thank-you gift? Odd books? The more Wen Junqing listened, the more strange he felt, what did his cousin mean? said it was a gift, but only half of it was given, and it was half a book, but looking at the thin envelope, could it be a trick on him?

However, Wen Junqing still took the envelope very politely, and asked the two of them to go back to Lin Shuran to thank him, if someone else gave him a gift, he might not accept it, but Lin Shuran's gift made him curious, but after the two brothers of the Xu family left, he did not rush to open the envelope to see the content on it, but took it to see his father Wen Shangqing.

"Don't bother me if there's nothing to do!" In the Wen family's library, a cold voice came, revealing a little impatience, as if someone had disturbed his own affairs.

Wen Junqing was most afraid of hearing his father say this to him when he was a child, but now he is used to it, standing outside the door of the library and whispering, "Father, the cousin of the Lin family asked the two young masters of the Xu family to just send half of the thank you gift, saying that it is half a strange book, does my father want to read it?"
