What is the so-called deliberate retention of customers, just listen to it.

If you really want to keep guests, you don't have to hang yourself in the concierge at all, and the doorman probably invited him in a long time ago.

You Wu Xingbang is busy with you, can't I sit down and drink tea in your house and wait slowly?

Isn't that a bit hypocritical?

However, Wu Xingbang obviously didn't notice his hypocrisy, or rather, his hypocrisy was deliberately pretending to be Xu He.

He is beating Xu He in another way, what about your champion and first, and what about your title of Xu Liushou that has never been seen before?

In my place, you still don't have to wait obediently in the porter's room, I don't summon you, aren't you like those officials, waiting honestly?

Xu He is actually very sober about his own cognition.

The success of the imperial examination represents the past.

Now stepping into officialdom is just starting all over again.

At this point, why do you Wu Xingbang beat me?

And again by this means.

The three of them rinsed their mouths and drank tea after eating.

During the whole process, Xu He was even more uncomfortable than eating with the emperor in the palace.

Wu Xingbang is a person who pays attention to food and sleep, and Zhang Congyun probably knows the rules of the owner.

The three of them only ate, and they didn't even make eye contact, which was really boring.

"Liangsheng, have you been to Xinghua?"

"Back to the teacher, I haven't been there yet, and the students have only heard the story of the teacher studying in the Iron Buddha Temple in his hometown, which has been passed down as a good story in the township!"

Wu Xingbang was obviously very proud of his experience, and said with a smile: "Our Nanzhili Yangzhou Mansion is really full of talents, so I won't talk about your uncle and my generation." ”

"Congyun, your father, Mao Lin Gong, and Zhongwang Brother's father, Hailing Gong, are all from our Yangzhou Mansion."

"Now Liangsheng and Xie Liangcai, the son of Brother Xie of Dali Temple, have also risen up!"

"Sure enough, our Yangzhou Mansion is prosperous, and it is a blessed land!"

Zhang Congyun said with a smile: "Ge Lao, Liangsheng has a very good relationship with Xie Daozhi's son, this is the friendship of the next generation, it is better to call Rumei out today, they are of the same age, and it is good to achieve the friendship of the next generation of Yangzhou Mansion." ”

Wu Xingbang was in a good mood when he heard this, and he smiled and ordered: "Go, call the fourth son." ”

Xu He had long heard that Wu Xingbang had four sons, the first three died young, and only the fourth son survived to adulthood.

Therefore, Wu Xingbang loved these four sons very much, and was even afraid that he would hurt his body by studying hard, so he would rather not be an official than allow him to study for the imperial examination.

After a while, Wu Rumei walked up to the hall.

The young man in front of him was about the same age as Xu He, but his face was as pale as paper, and he was obviously weak and weak when he walked.

As soon as he walked into the hall, Wu Xingbang hurriedly said: "Jiyuan, hurry up and sit down, guess who you are?" ”

Wu Rumei looked at Xu He and said, "The child doesn't know!" ”

Wu Xingbang said with a smile: "This is the champion of today's subject that you have been talking about every day for a while, a student of your father, Xu He, Xu Liangsheng." ”

Wu Rumei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he stood up from his seat when he was still sick just now, and bowed to Xu Heshen: "I have long heard that the talented son of Hailing is arguing in the Guozi Prison, which overshadows the Confucianism in Beijing. Seeing Brother Liangsheng today, Jiyuan Sansheng is lucky! ”

Okay!

Looking at him like this, Wu Xingbang's son is still his fan.

What's this all about?

Xu He hurriedly stood up and said: "Brother Wu, those are rumors from the outside, and they should not be allowed, the great sages in Beijing are here, how can there be a place for me to put a beak, that day I was just an axe in front of Mr. Qiu and Tang Sacrifice Wine." ”

Who knew that Wu Rumei shook her head and said: "Brother Liangsheng is too modest, I have heard a lot of poems by Brother Liangsheng in Beijing, and I am familiar with each one." ”

"Alright, alright!" At this moment, Wu Xingbang interrupted his son's star-chasing move, and after personally helping his son sit down, he said to Xu He: "Liangsheng, when will you report to the Ministry of Officials?" ”

Xu He said: "Today! ”

Wu Xingbang nodded: "Although the starting point of the champion is quite high, stepping into the officialdom is from the sixth grade." ”

"But you, like other editors and editors, are actually the same, you have to sit on the cold bench for a few years, you have to be mentally prepared!"

Xu He said: "Teacher Xie, I am young and ignorant of the world, so it is only right to study for a few more years in the Hanlin Academy and watch my predecessors deal with things!" ”

Wu Xingbang said with satisfaction: "Well, you can have this kind of thought, and I am very happy to be a teacher." ”

"By the way, have you been to Master Qiu?"

Xu He shook his head and said, "I'm about to go!" ”

"Oh! Then I have to visit Mr. Qiu again, and I have to report to the Ministry of Officials, today is very tight, in this case, let's talk about teachers and students in the future! ”

Hearing this, Xu He stood up and bowed down and said, "Then the student will retire first." ”

Wu Xingbang said with a smile: "Congyun, you can help me send Liangsheng!" ”

Wu Rumei got up when she heard this and said, "I will also send Brother Liangsheng." ”

Wu Xingbang said gently: "Jiyuan, you are not in good health, the weather is still cold outside in early spring, so you don't have to go." ”

When Wu Rumei heard this, she looked at Xu He in disappointment and said, "Brother Liangsheng, I have time to sit in the house, I want to ask you about the way of poetry." ”

Xu He smiled and arched his hand at him: "Brother Shi, please rest assured, I will come to the door from time to time to disturb." ”

Hearing this, Wu Rumei smiled.

When Zhang Congyun led Xu He to the courtyard, he whispered without looking back: "The elder has invited Zhang Wenkui into the mansion to accompany Jiyuan to study!" ”

Xu He heard Zhang Congyun's words, and his heart sank.

Zhang Wenkui, whose name should be light, is the second place in the Curtin test today.

is also a student of Wu Xingbang, he put his own township party and champion without it, but asked the second place from Luochuan County, Yan'an Prefecture, Shaanxi Province to accompany his son to study.

It's not that Xu He rarely accompanies Wu Rumei to study.

It's just that the harmony when they first met was scattered by this news as soon as they went out.

Zhang Congyun continued: "Wu Jiyuan admires you very much, and asked his father several times, but each time he was rejected by Wu Xingbang, and finally Wu Xingbang invited Zhang Wenkui into the mansion, which was also a last resort. ”

When Xu He heard this, he frowned and said, "Uncle, the second assistant doesn't seem to like me very much." ”

Zhang Congyun was silent for a moment, seeing that he was about to reach the front yard, there were many people.

He whispered, "It's good that you know, be careful!" ”

"What about you, uncle?"

Zhang Congyun is the uncle's brother-in-law, and the uncle was not a cabinet minister before, so naturally everything is easy to say.

But now that Xu Song has entered the cabinet, Zhang Congyun's identity is a little embarrassing.

"It's okay for me for the time being, my relationship with Wu Xingbang is extraordinary, and I won't help your uncle, you will bring a message to your uncle when you go back!"

"Well, uncle, please speak!"

"The one in the palace has been sick for more than a year!"

When Xu He heard this, he was taken aback.

No wonder when he saw Emperor Zhizheng several times, he felt that Emperor Zhizheng's eyes were dark and blue, and he looked unhealthy.

It turned out that he was really sick......
