Chapter 347: The Fifth in the World
When approaching Xiaojiazhuang, a wide four-wheeled carriage slowly drove out, driven by an old man who did not need to be lean.
The scholar stopped the other party with his hand, "Dare to ask the old man, is the Xiaojiazhuang where the champion Hou is located in front?" ”
The old coachman nodded with a serious face: "Yes, it is Xiaojiazhuang where the champion Hou is located." ”
"Dare to ask where the champion of Shonai lives?"
The coachman raised his eyebrows, a little alert, and said in his heart, who is this?
Lao Li Yuan's lazy voice came from inside the car, "Lao Wang, what's going on?" ”
The coachman hurriedly replied: "Third master, a descendant asks for directions, as if he is looking for the marquis." ”
The curtain slowly rolled up, and you could roughly see through the small window that there were two old men in the carriage, a chessboard, and there seemed to be a small stove or something.
Old Li Yuan looked at the person asking for directions through the window, huh? looks like a young talent with an extraordinary bearing, when did Chang'an City have such a character?
"Housheng, what are you looking for Xiao Rui?"
Forehead......
This question made the man on the horse stunned, and said in his heart, who is this old man? How dare you call the champion Hou by name?
It is not surprising to think that the other party is from Xiao Jiazhuang, either he is higher than Xiao Rui, or he is the elder of the champion Hou Ben's family.
Higher than the status of the champion Hou? Unlikely, it is most likely the elder of the Xiao family.
So he saluted respectfully and said: "Junior Feng Zhidai, who came from Lingnan, is polite!" The long-heard champion Hou Wenwu is an all-rounder, and he is unique in poetry and books, so he came to see it. Please rest assured that the younger generation is not a bad person. ”
Feng Zhidai? From Lingnan? Lingnan, I only know that there is a Feng An. Xuan Zhen, have you heard of it?
Pei Lian, who was playing chess on the other side, thought for a moment and said lightly: "Feng Zhidai? It seems that there is such a number one person, Feng An's son, who was rated as the fifth genius in the world, is that him? Well...... It's not bad to look at. ”
Burst...... Feng Zhidai really wanted to vomit blood, what were he afraid of, what did he disagree with the most was that he was the fifth in the world, and now he was broken in front of someone?
"Housheng, are you Feng An's son?"
Feng Zhidai was a little dissatisfied in his heart, and said that this old man was so rude, so he called his father's name so directly?
But thinking that the other party was older, he didn't have a seizure, but arched his hand, "Yes, my father is Shangzhuguo and Geng Guogong." ”
Old Li Yuan didn't care about the other party's attitude, nodded and praised: "Yes, Feng An's son." Go ahead, Xiao Rui lives in the largest courtyard by the lake at the entrance of the village. ”
"Thank you for showing you the way."
"By the way, he has tigers at home, but they don't bite, be careful, don't be scared. Lao Wang, let's go. ”
After speaking, he put down the curtain, and Lao Wang drove slowly in the direction of Chang'an.
Feng Zhidai was confused, and said in his heart that this old man is very powerful, and those who don't know still think that you are the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the champion Hou, Geng Guogong, you don't pay attention to any of them. It seems that this Xiao family is really domineering.
Preconceived, he had an opinion on the people of Xiaojiazhuang. As everyone knows, the other party is not the Xiao family, don't say that you call your father Feng An's name behind your back, even if you call it to your face, Feng Ang can only feel honored and cordial.
In the carriage, Pei Lin said: "Third Master, Master Hou has not been in Zhuangzi for the past two days, and he went to Chang'an City to clean up Xue Li's new home, why don't you tell him?" ”
Old Li Yuan stroked his beard and smiled: "Xuan Zhen, what do you think of that future life?" ”
Pei Lin muttered: "It looks good, but his eyebrows and eyes seem to be a little arrogant." ”
Old Li Yuan laughed and said, "Yes, if the old man guessed correctly, he came to Xiao Rui to compete." The fifth in the world, tsk, young people, it is normal to be unconvinced. ”
Pei Lin also smiled and said with emotion: "Being born in the same era as Hou Ye is their luck and misfortune. There is a comparable Xue Li in the world, which is already unbelievable, I don't believe that this future life is as good. ”
"By the way, Xuan Zhen, he is ranked fifth, so who are the third and fourth?" Old Li Yuan asked curiously.
"In third place was the new Goguryeo Grand Rival, Lu Yuan Gai Suwen, who is said to be less than thirty years old, but more sophisticated and resourceful than his father, Yuan Taejo. It is very valued by the king of Goguryeo. ”
"The fourth place is the new prime minister of Tibet, Lu Dongzan, who is resourceful and known as the first wise man on the plateau. With his master, the new king of Tibet, Songtsen Gampo, who ranked sixth in the world, both of them were 20 years old, and completed the unification of Tibet by thunderbolt means. ”
Hiss......
Lao Li Yuan said with emotion: "Xuan Zhen, it seems that we are really old, and the future is the world of young people." For a while, there were so many posterity in their twenties in the whole world, and it would be lively to fight in the future. ”
"It's a pity, we can't see it."
Pei Lin hurriedly relieved: "Third master, the Hou Ye has shown you the photo, you can live a long life, some look." ”
Old Li Yuan laughed, "Don't mention this kid's physiognomy, read a few books with Yuan Daochang, and say that he is learning to play hexagrams and tell fortunes." That day, let him calculate the cloudy and sunny days, and it was good to go on an outing. He patted his chest and said that it is better to travel today without rain. And finally? Halfway through the journey, it was pouring rain, and we were almost not buried by the landslide on the mountain. ”
"Can you believe him? It's better for me to worship the ancestors of the Three Qing Daoists and kowtow to the ancestors a few more times to ask for some blessings. ”
Burst...... Pei Lin was speechless, although his own witnesses at that time, although they avoided the landslide, they folded a good carriage. Gee...... Hou Ye's level of fortune telling, cough cough, there is still a lot of room for improvement.
Feng Zhidai drove his horse slowly to the lake in Xiaojiazhuang, looking at the snow-capped lakes, villages, and cooking smoke, a picture of the mountains and wilderness.
The old man said that he had only heard of a large family raising dogs to guard the door, but he had never heard of raising tigers to guard the door. I don't know ......."
Roar!
Before he finished speaking, a tiger roar came from the yard, Feng Zhidai was directly overturned off the horse, and the white horse under the seat was frightened, leaving the master and turning around and running.
I'm ...... Is it really a tiger?
Feng Zhidai's face was pale, and he wanted to turn over and get up, but he always felt that his hands and feet were weak, so he hid by the door and sat against the wall.
The old housekeeper in the courtyard stopped the tiger and opened the door to check it himself.
"Huh? Who is Childe? What is the matter with my Xiaojiazhuang? ”
Feng Zhidai was a little stunned, if he bluntly said that he was looking for Xiao Rui to compete, would they let the tiger bite me? Looking at the arrogant attitude of the old man before, the Xiao family is not easy to get along with.
"Ahem, Mr. is polite, surnamed Feng, passing by the treasure land, I want to ask for a meal, and then spend the night. I don't know where it is convenient? ”
The old housekeeper waved his hand and said, "I don't dare to be called Mr. Gongzi, I am a housekeeper below." Childe, please come in, it's just a trivial matter, don't be restrained. ”
Now that the Xiao family is not here, they all went to Chang'an to help Xue Li prepare a new house, and there are some subordinates in the family, as well as Li Chengqian and Yang Zhengdao who are studying here, and Zhao Deyan who is teaching. So the old butler can call the shots.
arranged Feng Zhidai's accommodation, explained the precautions for walking at home, and told him that he would come to call when he had dinner, and the old housekeeper went to get busy.
Feng Zhidai wandered around curiously, and heard the sound of reading aloud at home, Feng Zhidai followed the sound and walked over.
