Chapter 66: Invitation
Unable to get a complete poem, Duan Gongzi felt very regretful, just when Xu Xian and He Liang were about to say goodbye, Duan Gongzi seemed to be unsatisfied, and his curiosity and enthusiasm for Xu Xian seemed to be a little excessive.
Xu Xian secretly felt strange, but he was also polite.
After all, the other party just spent two hundred taels of silver to buy his own pen and ink, and there is no malice, and he can't turn his face ruthlessly.
"I heard that Xu Gongzi was the first child in the Hangzhou government examination this time, and he must definitely take the hospital examination this autumn. I just don't know what Gongzi Xu's plans will be in the next six months?" asked Duan Gongzi.
"In a few days, I will go to Hangzhou Mansion to study. Xu Xian replied.
"Hangzhou Mansion Learning, ......"
Duan Gongzi shook his head, as if he was not very satisfied, and then suddenly said with a smile: "I don't know if Gongzi Xu is interested in studying in Jingshi? If you are willing, I can recommend Gongzi Xu to enter Yingtianfu Academy." ”
Ying Tianfu Academy?
Hearing this, the owner of the calligraphy and painting shop next to him and He Liang were dumbfounded.
Ying Tianfu Academy is the first of the four major academies of the Dali Dynasty! Even Jinling Academy, the first academy in the south of the Yangtze River, is much worse in terms of faculty and heritage, not to mention the Hangzhou Mansion Academy.
It can be said that the status of Ying Tianfu Academy compared with Tsinghua University and Peking University on the earth in later generations is only surpassed!
If you want to enter Yingtianfu Academy to study, generally speaking, only Gongsheng is eligible, that is, the Xiucai who has passed the college examination, and it must be the Xiucai with the best grades to be eligible!
With such a talent, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the entire Hangzhou government to find one.
Not to mention entering Yingtianfu as a child, this is simply as difficult as climbing to the sky!
In Hangzhou Mansion, the biggest expectation of the talents is to be admitted to Jinling Academy, which is a matter of honoring their ancestors.
Because you are admitted to Jinling Academy, it also means that you have great potential, and under normal circumstances, eighty percent of you may pass the township examination and raise people in high school!
Ying Tianfu Academy is something that most Xiucai can't even think of.
Looking at the prime ministers of the Dali Dynasty for hundreds of years, almost half of them are from Ying Tianfu Academy!
From this, it can be imagined how difficult it is to enter Yingtianfu Academy.
"My son-in-law has always been very good at speaking, and he said that if he can recommend you to enter Yingtianfu Academy, he will definitely be able to do it. ”
The feminine follower 'Xiao Guan' seemed to see what everyone was thinking, obviously not believing it, so he snorted coldly and said.
Seeing that the master and servant were so conclusive, it didn't look like they were lying, He Liang and the shopkeeper didn't know what to say, so they had to look at Xu Xian.
To be honest, no matter whether the guarantee of this Duan Gongzi is valid or not, as long as it is mentioned that he can have the opportunity to study at Ying Tianfu Academy, there are probably few people in the entire Dali Dynasty who will not be moved.
Xu Xian only groaned slightly, and then replied: "Duan Gongzi's kindness is understood in my heart." It's just that I have completed the enrollment procedures in Hangzhou Fuxue, and the teachers of Fuxue have also given me ardent expectations. ”
Ying Tianfu Academy is indeed a great temptation for students all over the world, but for Xu Xian, even if he has already completed the admission procedures in Fuxue, it is unlikely that he will go to Ying Tianfu in the capital right now.
First, he doesn't really want to leave his hometown now, at least he doesn't want to leave Jiangnan. There is an older sister Xu Jiaorong at home, and the lady Bai Suzhen doesn't know when to go down Qingcheng Mountain, it is too far away from home, and it is too inconvenient for him to rush back if something happens.
Second, the reason why Ying Tianfu Academy is so attractive to students from all over the world is because after entering, it is easier to title the gold list. If Xu Xian can be named on the gold list by himself, he naturally doesn't need it.
Moreover, Xu Xian, the identity of this Duan Gongzi, does not suspect that he is a liar, and should be a prince and nobleman from the capital.
But when he invited himself to the capital, he didn't necessarily have good intentions, at least not entirely for his own good.
Maybe when I went to the capital, I was the role of 'accompanying the prince to study', which may not be a good thing for me.
No matter which dynasty, the capital is always a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, and the Gaomen compound is full of crises, stepping into the unknown whirlpool, and Xu Xian can't predict what happens.
Xu Xian's Dao method is not profound, and secondly, his identity is just a little child, and he has not yet had the ability to stir into the storm.
It is still the best way to step by step, down-to-earth, and slowly climb up.
"In that case, then I don't have to force others. Duan Gongzi sighed.
After a few more words of gossip, Duan Gongzi put away Xu Xian's pen and ink, and they separated. Before leaving, he said that if Xu Xian arrived in the capital in the future and had the opportunity to meet again, he would definitely invite Xu Xian to drink Yunyun.
After leaving the calligraphy and painting shop, Xiao Guancai said: "Childe, is this Xu Xian too ignorant? You recommended him to study at Ying Tianfu Academy, what an honor it was for him, and he even refused!"
Duan Gongzi smiled.
Xu Xian's refusal of his invitation was unexpected, and it was reasonable that he did not feel regretful.
If Xu Xian heard that he was admitted to Tianfu Academy, his eyes lit up, and he went to the capital with him unexpectedly, he would not regret it, but he would be disappointed.
Ying Tianfu Academy is a holy place for students from all over the world.
But for the real talents, how can they be limited to a certain academy?
Academies can nurture talents, but not all talents come from academies.
Just like Ying Tianfu Academy occupies half of the position of the prime minister of the Dali Dynasty, but after all, there is another half of the country distributed around.
So Duan Gongzi said something that Xiao Guan didn't understand: "He rejected me, so I'm more optimistic! I'm even more curious about how this young genius will behave in the future." The next time we meet, we may surprise you and me!"
......
......
On the way back, He Liang thought for a long time, and finally agreed with Xu Xian's refusal to go to the capital by Duan Gongzi.
He didn't think about it that much, he just felt that Duan Gongzi was bragging and talking big. What is the status of Ying Tianfu Academy? It is difficult for students from all over the world to enter even if their heads are crowded!
He recommended it at random, and Ying Tianfu Academy would make an exception to recruit Xu Xian?
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem possible.
Ying Tianfu Academy is not opened by his family!
Xu Xian wanted to laugh when he heard this, and said silently in his heart: Maybe this Ying Tianfu Academy is really opened by his 'home'!
He couldn't determine which prince and nobleman Duan Gongzi's identity was, but he could see that the follower next to him, Xiao Guan, a man with a strong feminine aura, was not a woman dressed as a man, nor was he a normal man.
Skipping this topic, He Liang stared at Xu Xian with bright eyes, and said with emotion: "Hanwen, I really didn't expect your calligraphy and paintings to sell for such a high price! At that time, you and Ruiyun said that this painting was worth a hundred taels of silver, and I thought it was ridiculous!"
Xu Xian 'um' and listened to his words.
Sure enough, He Liang continued: "You said that if your words are so valuable, why should you take them to a calligraphy and painting shop to buy them?"
"If you think about it, when you sell this painting, you paid a consignment fee of three dollars of silver at the beginning. Later, he was directly drawn by the calligraphy and painting shop, and gave the shopkeeper twenty taels of silver for nothing!"
"That's twenty taels of white flower silver!
He Liang felt very sad as he spoke.
At the beginning, Xu Xian was consigned in the calligraphy and painting shop, and in the consignment agreement signed, it was discussed in advance, if Xu Xian's characters were sold in the calligraphy and painting shop, the money from the sale would be taken away by the store to extract one percent of the income.
After a pause, He Liangcai strongly suggested: "Hanwen, I think you might as well open a calligraphy and painting shop by yourself, so that you can save a lot of money!"
Xu Xian looked at him in surprise.
This fat man is not stupid, he is very business-minded, and he wants to go with him.
