He looked at the floating mound, which was beginning to hold his breath again.

The person in front of you is the second type.

When Fuqiu heard Zhu Xiang's recognition of him, he was almost dizzy with excitement.

Although he went home in accordance with filial piety that day, he was very distressed that he could no longer accept Zhu Xianggong's teachings, and often woke up from his dreams.

Fortunately, he overrode public opinion and followed Lin Gong and Lu Gong to Chu to do cotton cloth business, which can be regarded as doing his part for the teacher.

Chapter 183: Floating Hill and Traitor

The fact that Fuqiu was forced to go home by his family to inherit the family business was simply incredible in the eyes of the Qin people.

Who is so stupid that their parents don't let their children follow Zhu Xianggong to make a career and become a businessman?

But in this era, the transmission of information is very difficult, and the villages on this side of the mountain may not even know that there are villages on the other side of the mountain. Although the Fuqiu family is in business, they are only in Yuedi, and at most they have been to Chudi, so they don't know Zhu Xiang's reputation.

The people in many places don't even know about the change of dynasty, let alone Zhu Xiang.

Fuqiu's parents didn't know how powerful the Qin State was, but they only knew that the Chu State was the most vast. When the Qin people from the west captured the land of Wuyue, they thought that the state of Chu would soon come over, and if their son followed the state of Qin as a servant, he might be killed, so they forced Fuqiu to return home with filial piety.

What's more, their family is very wealthy, and their son is just a small official, wearing coarse cloth and straw shoes, and he will actually go to the fields to farm, no matter how you look at it, he is suffering.

Later, after they learned that Chu was not as strong as Qin, and that Zhu Xianggong was a great sage in the world, they cried bitterly that they were ignorant, delayed their son's future, and regretted it too late.

Such ignorant parents have existed in ancient and modern times, and it is not worth mentioning.

Although Fuqiu was forced to go home, he also seized the opportunity to join Lü Buwei's "merchant army", and contributed a lot in the trade war, and the family business also grew.

The parents, who already regretted it, handed over all the family business to Fuqiu and no longer cared about mundane affairs.

Fuqiu came to Wucheng this time to send the children of the clan to study, and by the way, he reminisced with his classmates and prepared to "make a comeback".

Although he has no shame to face his mentor again, Lü Buwei can recommend him, and after he offloads the burden of the family business to his cousin, he can still get an official position.

Zhu Xiang joked: "Your family business is so huge, you are willing to hand it over to others?" ”

Fuqiu said: "Shang is just a small road, and the family knows it now. ”

Zhu Xiang sighed: "Yes." ”

The people of the Fuqiu family must understand that if they want to keep this family business, they must rely on a person who is an official. Is there a better candidate than to rely on one's own people?

In later generations, the so-called Shiqing's family was mostly a family of capable people who studied and became officials, and a slightly mediocre side family did business, which was both rich and expensive.

The Fuqiu family will probably do the same in the future.

Zhu Xiang only sighed in his heart, and continued to smile and ask Fuqiu what he had learned, to see if Fuqiu had really not neglected his studies.

He just disappeared from the list of favorability from Ukigaoka, and it is speculated that Ukigaoka has not relaxed his studies and will return to the court sooner or later. Now after the school examination, I know the true ability of Fuqiu.

Fuqiu is indeed the first strange student to appear on Zhu Xiang's favorability list, he is indeed both talented and hard enough.

Fuqiu also couldn't let go of the scroll when he was in business, but now not only has not regressed in his studies, but also has more experience in business, he has a more thorough understanding of the knowledge in books, his temperament is more sleek and mature, and the former youth has faded, smooth and introverted, and more warm.

Zhu Xiang was very satisfied with Fuqiu.

"Now that you've taken care of your family, go back to me for the time being and help me with some chores." Zhu Xiang believes in fate, since it happened to meet, then take it with you.

Fuqiu is just a "concubine", and it is appropriate to stay by Zhu Xiang's side, so there will not be too many problems.

Now that Zhu Xiang has more and more things on hand, he also needs a "secretary". In the past, Han Fei and Li Si were responsible for these things, but these two have been recognized by Zheng'er, so let's continue to stay by Zheng'er's side.

Ukigaoka immediately stood up in surprise, then covered his head and groaned.

Zhu Xiang laughed at Li Mu's carriage for being too low, and Li Mu was too lazy to pay attention to Zhu Xiang.

He glanced at Fuqiu a few times and decided to check on the affairs of Fuqiu's house in private.

Zhu Xiang sees people very accurately, and Fuqiu himself should be fine, but the people in Fuqiu's family may not all be sober.

He didn't want Fuqiu's family to be carried by Zhu Xiang because of Fuqiu, and use Zhu Xiang's reputation to do bad things and tarnish Zhu Xiang's reputation.

The floating hill with his head in his arms was also thinking about it.

He has to tell his family to be cautious and low-key, and remember not to act mischiefly and discredit the teacher who promoted him.

Only Zhu Xiang doesn't care about this.

He is not a close person. If Fuqiu's family or even Fuqiu himself commits something, he will be sentenced how he should be sentenced, and he will never cover it up, so Zhu Xiang doesn't care about other people's families.

Zhu Xiang continued to take the school entrance examination, and the more he took the school, the happier he became.

With the talent of Fuqiu, his reputation has not been passed on to future generations, is it really a businessman?

In fact, it's just that Zhu Xiang is lonely and unheard.

Although there is no separate biography of Fuqiu, he actually has a name in other people's biographies, and there are folk legends about him.

At that time, he was already respectfully called "Fuchubo" and "Fuqiugong".

Fu Qiubo is a disciple of Xunzi, good at the Book of Songs, the younger brother of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and the teacher of Liu Jiao, the king of Chu.

Later generations had many misunderstandings about Liu Bang's background, but in fact, Liu Bang was recognized as a "concubine" at that time, not an ordinary Qianshou. Their home was what later generations called a "cold family".

Liu Bang's great-grandfather was a doctor of the Wei State; His father, Mrs. Liu, was a farmer, but most of Pei County and Feng County were his kind of farms; The fourth brother Liu Jiao studied under the great Confucian Fu Qiubo, and was a disciple of Xunzi; Liu Bang himself was a guest of Zhang Er, a famous scholar of the Wei State.

Because the Wei State was destroyed by the Qin State, they were reduced to "Shuren". But even so, seeing that Liu Bangfa is not a local official, or a local slaughterer, he knows that the Liu family is actually a local hero, so Liu Bang dared to mess around at the county banquet.

Mrs. Liu scolded Liu Bang for having no ability, also because their family could make Liu Bang capable, but Liu Bang was too prodigal.

If Liu Bang was really born poor, his father would not have scolded him for being unproductive.

There are not many records of Fuchubo in historical materials, and later generations can only speculate from his folk rumors that Fuchubo should be from Zhejiang, and later returned to Zhejiang.

Therefore, although Fu Qiubo himself did not have any works handed down to future generations, he had a disciple of Liu Jiao, the king of Chu Yuan, and created the atmosphere of Chu Dixue "Poetry", which should have had a slight impact on history. So his appearance in Zhu Xiang's list is not necessarily Zhu Xiang's teaching achievements.

But Zhu Xiang didn't know, so he was "brazen" when he was teaching well.

Fuqiu originally went to Xianyang to worship Xunzi as a teacher, but when he saw Zhu Xiang, he "missed for life", and regarded himself as a disciple of Zhu Xiang, even if Zhu Xiang only recognized Ying Xiaozheng as a disciple, and the others were students.

Now he has finally been recognized by Zhu Xiang and can serve Zhu Xiang around. Fuqiu almost wanted to sing Chu song and dance Chu dance immediately to express the joy in his heart.

The Yue people are also Chu people, and the scholars of the Chu State are quite good at singing and dancing.

Zhu Xiang looked at Fuqiu's sparkling eyes, and also remembered that Fuqiu liked to dance and sing whenever he was happy, and said with a smile: "Don't sing and dance in the carriage, I'll talk about it when I go back." I'll make a small courtyard for you, and you will live next door to Han Fei and Li Si. When you're done with your family, come and stay. ”

Fuqiu said, "Yes, Master! ”

Zhu Xiang said: "When you get to the officialdom, you don't call me master or teacher, you can call me Changping Jun or Zhu Xianggong." ”

Ukigaoka's heart was gloomy. He knew that it was the teacher who was "drawing a line" with him. But being able to serve the teacher was something he didn't dare to think about before, so this gloom was only for a moment, and he immediately regained his positive attitude: "Yes, Zhu Xianggong." ”

Zhu Xiang said: "When you come back, Zheng'er also has someone to read "Poems" together." ”

Fuqiu was curious: "Brother Li and Brother Han should also be good at "Poetry". ”

Zhu Xiang sighed: "Now the two of them are complete Legalist disciples. Xunzi has to draw his sword when he sees it. ”

Floating Hill: "......"

Don't say it, don't say it, if you keep talking, he wants to draw his sword.

The thought of living next door to two "traitors" made Floating Hill feel so stressed. He was afraid that he would be targeted by two "traitors".

Li Mu couldn't help but laugh when he saw that Zhu Xiang began to unconsciously "sow discord".

Zhu Xiang really likes to watch the excitement, and he unconsciously wants to create excitement.

Zhu Xiang went out for a walk, and when he came back, he not only brought pickled fish and silk as gifts, but also brought someone back.

Ying Xiaozheng, whose eyes were red and swollen, pretended to be very calm and indifferent: "Who did my uncle bring back?" ”

Zhu Xiang pinched Ying Xiaozheng's hand hidden in the cuff.

Ying Xiaozheng jumped up with a "whoop".

Zhu Xiang said: "Call you rude." ”

Xue Ji, whose eyes were more red and swollen than Ying Xiaozheng, reprimanded: "Zheng'er! ”

Ying Xiaozheng was immediately honest and obediently greeted Zhu Xiang's guests.

Li Mu sighed: "Xue Ji, don't be crooked by Zhu Xiang." Zheng'er's move was not wrong in terms of etiquette, and he was now the crown prince of Qin. ”

Xue Ji said: "What about Prince Qin? Xia Tong used to be the prince of Qin! Xia Tong was thoughtful. ”

Li Mu: "......"

That's it, when he didn't say. The mother educates the son, what does he interject?

"Qin, Prince Qin?!" Fuqiu was so frightened that he almost knelt down with a weak leg, but the strict etiquette education kept him from losing his temper.

He hurriedly saluted Ying Xiaozheng: "The grass people float on the hill to meet the prince." ”

Ying Xiaozheng waved his hand: "No need to be polite...... I remember you! That Confucian who was taken back to be a merchant by his stupid parents at home! ”

Xue Ji's cold eyes silently looked at Ying Xiaozheng.

Ying Xiaozheng: "......"

"Ahem." Ying Xiaozheng said kindly, "The family matter has been resolved? Great work. I'm looking forward to the day when you can make the most of your ambitions. ”

Yukihime's eyes softened.

Ying Xiaozheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhu Xiang almost burst out laughing. Call you rebellious period! With your aunt here, I don't think you dare to rebel!

Li Mu said: "Fuqiu followed Lü Buwei to do business in the Chu State, and he was quite meritorious. Zhu Xiang was ready to take the floating mound with him to cultivate. Li Si and Han Fei will be entrusted with important tasks by Zheng'er, and Zhu Xiang will also have a new scribe by his side. ”

Ying Xiaozheng immediately understood the words of Li Mu's words.

"Uncle will be taken care of by you." Ying Xiaozheng said with a straight face, "I hope you can be cautious and live up to your uncle's trust." ”

"Yes!" Fuqiu hurriedly said.

Ying Xiaozheng's face melted with ice and snow, and he said gently: "Since you want to be a scribe by your uncle's side, you don't need to be polite in front of me." In the future, we will meet often, and it will be troublesome to be polite. You learn from Han Fei and Li Siduo. ”

Fuqiu's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!" ”

Ying Xiaozheng saw that Fuqiu's face was wrong, and asked Zhu Xiang with his eyes suspiciously.
