The golden autumn and October in the capital are extremely beautiful, but what is more beautiful is the red leaves of Xiangshan, the wind passes through, setting off layers of waves, as gorgeous as the sunset in summer, and there are also clusters of autumn chrysanthemums blooming in all directions, embellishing the autumn scenery of the mountains. Xiangshan was originally the first choice for the vassal and elegant people in the capital, since the Luding Shuyuan opened the mountain gate here two years ago, Xiangshan has become a must-go place for celebrities, even if it is a talented person who comes to the capital to study in the capital, he has to try to enter the Luding Shuyuan to listen to the class - the face of the generation of Qing official Guo Xiu is a reason, but more importantly, the Shuyuan has a deep background, and the people who come here to lecture are the Confucians of the Northland, and even the adults of the Hanlin Academy often come here to make a cameo.

The red leaves outside the library are like fire, and the recitation in the library is bursting, and the old man Guo Xiu is not to mention how comfortable he is, seeing that this library has become a holy place for scholars in the north from an empty shell, and he is proud in his heart. Hmm, the West Lake Longjing in his hand is also a good thing, and Yinzuo, the little Belle Master, really has a heart. Guo Xiu picked up the small teapot and took a sip of it, but before he could swallow it, he suddenly saw a familiar person smiling at him, and suddenly he didn't catch his breath, the tea squirted out suddenly, and he coughed hard, and the old man stopped for a while, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Old man to say goodbye to Lord Baylor, what kind of wind is blowing you here today?" ”

What's the wind? Dongfeng, let's take advantage of the east wind, heh, this old man Guo hasn't seen him for two years, and he is funny when he talks, it seems that he has lived very comfortably in the past two years. Yin Zuo smiled and said: "Guo Zhangshan is so leisurely, Ben Baylor is idle today, so he will come and take a walk, are you welcome?" ”

"Lord Belle said that, this library was originally yours, you can come whenever you want, the old man in front of the head is still thinking about Lord Baylor, and it just so happens that Lord Baylor is here." Guo Xiu replied with a smile.

"West Lake Longjing? The old man can really enjoy it. "Yinzuo was originally good at tea, and he had money in his hands, and he drank good tea, and he was a connoisseur of tea, so he picked up the small teapot on the table and opened the lid to see that this tea was the best.

"Hehe, this is a special trip sent by Liu Mingchuan and the shopkeeper Liu, saying that it was rewarded by Lord Baylor, and the old man has not thanked Lord Baylor." Guo Xiu stroked his beard with a smile and said: "Lord Belle has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, what is there to use the old man, even if he speaks, the old man will do it even if he fights for this old life." ”

Guo Xiu's words clearly show that he intends to be loyal to Yinzuo, not for Yinzuo to make him the head of the academy, but for Yinzuo to make him the head of the academy, but to believe that Yinzuo will definitely do a lot in the future - although Guo Xiu has hung up the crown, but after all, he has been mixed with officialdom for more than ten years, his eyes are poisonous, and the news is also well-informed, what Yinzuo has done in the past two years, Guo Xiu has a number in his heart, in his opinion, among the many elder brothers, Yinzuo's qualifications are definitely at the forefront, although he may not know which cloud will rain, but he Guo Xiu is now on Yinzuo's boat, I can only follow along.

Everyone understands people, and there is no need to say some things explicitly, when Mr. Guo mentions this, Yinzuo has a number in his heart, but in Yinzuo's opinion, Mr. Guo is old, and it will not be too long to help him, and the book garden is also inseparable from Guo Xiu's hosting, Yinzuo sighed slightly: "Ben Beile heard that Guo Pu, the eldest son of Guo Zhangshan, has come to Beijing, but he plans to participate in the spring examination?" ”

"Yes, the dog is also studying in the library now, this kid has a strong temper, but the article is still acceptable." When he mentioned his beloved son, Guo Xiu's face was full of pride.

"Well, I'll see him again after I'll try."

The subtext of Yinzuo's words is that no matter whether Guo Pu is in or not, the matter of being out of office will be wrapped up in himself, Guo Xiu understood as soon as he heard it, although he is upright and disdainful of taking the road for himself, but the matter is related to the future of his son, that is another matter, and besides, Brother uses his own people, which was originally the practice of the Qing Dynasty, but it did not violate the laws of the Qing Dynasty, Guo Xiu naturally did not object, and said with a smile: "In this way, the old man will thank Lord Belle on behalf of the dog." ”

"Hmm." Yinzuo didn't be polite, just nodded, and then asked with a casual look: "How many students are there in the academy now, and how many people will participate in the exam next spring?" ”

Although Yinzuo's appearance is casual, Guo Xiu understands it very well in his heart: dare to love this Lord Belle is planning to pull the banner and set up a mountain. The corners of his mouth curled, and he said with a smile: "There are more than 300 students in the library, and most of them are qualified for the spring examination, among which there are quite a few talents, and Qin Hao, Shi Zhihao, You Yu, and Lin Xuan Perseverance are the most outstanding, known as the four masters of Luding." Do you want to meet Lord Belle? ”

Seeing is to see, otherwise we will come all the way to do something, but we have to read their articles before we meet. Yin Zuo waved his hand and said: "Let's discuss this matter again, Ben Baylor wants to come up with a question to test those students, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

"This is a trivial matter, Lord Belle, please ask the question."

"Okay, let's take the title of 'First Labor', and the time is an hour." The topic chosen by Yinzuo is not difficult, it comes from the "Analects", which means to do it before the common people, so that the common people are industrious, in other words, to lead by example.

Yinzuo said lightly, but the whole library was a lot of chickens and dogs, and all the old masters who were lecturing stopped class, and they were busy arranging exam questions, and they were busy grading, and they were busy for a long time, and finally screened out more than 20 excellent works from more than 400 papers and sent them to Guo Xiu's office.

Well, Guo Pu's article is passable, the dictionary is good, and the words are also something, but the words are not sophisticated enough, too simple, as far as the article is concerned, it is a little difficult to enter the top three in this subject, and it seems that he is really busy. Yinzuo first checked Guo Pu's volume, and was not very satisfied, it can be seen from the text that Guo Pu is more than square and inflexible, which is very similar to Guo Xiu before he hung the crown, and he was afraid of being embarrassed and useful without some experience.

Yinzuo read more than a dozen copies of the volume one after another, but all of them were a pile of flowery words, empty and empty, and he was really angry in his heart: every year 200,000 taels of silver are smashed, and such a result is obtained, everyone will be angry, and it is a loss to Mr. Guo to boast for a long time, these bullshit articles are really ridiculous. Yinzuo was very annoyed in his heart, and casually flicked those rolls, originally planning to stop there, but suddenly a roll jumped into his eyes: good words! I'm afraid that this hand is three points stronger than himself! Looking at the volume carefully, I was very excited: this master is not only well written, but the article is also of the highest quality, and the words show that this son has a lot of experience, and the writing is brilliant and simple. "Good!" Yinzuo couldn't help but pat the table and applauded.
