The room is still the same as when Han Xuan left, hanging a pair of middle halls, on which Han Xuan wrote the word "Taiping" in his own handwriting, and below is a square table of yellow rosewood. In all fairness, the furniture in the house is not bad, it was all purchased by Han Xuan when he first arrived in Xiaofangzhai, after all, Han Xuan had just stepped down as the second assistant of the cabinet at that time, and he had some money, and he was still very generous.

However, Han Xuan, who has read books all his life, whether it is public cultivation or the way of being an official, can be called perfect, but in the most basic livelihood, it is a mess, and in less than ten years, he has lost a lot of money, Xu Beiyou has to go out at a young age to fend for himself, in this regard, Xu Beiyou can straighten his waist and say that he is more than ten times stronger than Mr.

After entering the house, the two sat down separately, Xu Beiyou said with a smile: "I went out to travel some time ago, and I just came back, there is no tea or water at home, there is rudeness, and I hope that Brother Ding Haihan." ”

Ding Zeyuan hurriedly said: "Don't dare to bother Brother Xu, by the way, Brother Xu said that he just returned from a trip, I don't know where he went?"

Xu Beiyou said: "The so-called travel, is to go from a familiar place to an unfamiliar place, gain knowledge, open up the pattern, nothing more than the southerners travel north, the northerners return to the south, since the younger brother is a person from the northwest, naturally to the south, so this time I went to the south of the Yangtze River, saw the prosperity of Jiangdu, and also walked to Jiangzhou and Huzhou by the way, I was fortunate to watch many great Confucian celebrities talk about empty talk in Dabao'en Temple, and I was fortunate to watch the Jiangnan garrison compete for the current above Daze. ”

Ding Zeyuan saw that Xu Beiyou didn't look like he was bragging, so he believed it in his heart, and said with a smile: "Jiangnan Shilin, where the world's reading seeds are located, Brother Xu can go to the realm over there to go for a while, this trip is not worthwhile, this trip is not worthwhile." ”

Xu Beiyou nodded in agreement and said: "I have indeed benefited a lot from going to Jiangnan. ”

Ding Zeyuan said with emotion: "One day, I should follow Brother Xu and go to Jiangnan for a walk." ”

Xu Beiyou glanced at the bookcase that the scholar had placed at his feet, and suddenly laughed at himself.

Along the way, not only did he see all the famous mountains and rivers, but also cut off a lot of bloody heads.

The wine entered the bowels of Hao, but failed to make a poem, but instead roared out a sword qi.

Back then, Taibai Sword Immortal Poems, Wine, and Sword were three uniques, but not everyone could follow them.

Next, Xu Beiyou talked with Ding Zeyuan about some customs and geography, famous theories, and even the way of saints, which can be regarded as a very happy conversation.

Xiaoxiang also read with Han Xuan for a few days, and listened to it on the side, but she felt that the two of them were so good, she left once, and when she came back, it was already noon, and she actually brought two white-flour steamed buns to the two, Ding Zeyuan probably didn't understand, but Xu Beiyou knew how much the two white-flour steamed buns represented in Xiaofangzhai, and she could only eat white noodles and eat some sesame oil during the New Year's holidays.

After Xu Beiyou took the steamed bun that was still hot, he ate it one bite at a time, and then smiled at the little girl: "It's delicious." ”

Two faint blushes immediately appeared on the little girl's face.

Xiaofangzhai does not raise idlers, chopping wood, burning fire, cooking, laundry, there is endless work every day, Xiaoxiang is not better than the lotus boy who can be idle all day long, she can stay here all morning is not easy, in the afternoon you have to go home to work, can not stay for a long time.

Xu Beiyou sent the little girl out, took out a silver nude and put it in her hand when she was leaving, and said in a tone that could not be refused without waiting for her to refuse: "Take it, not because of this steamed bun, but because Brother Beiyou is developed outside, I gave it to you." ”

The little girl took the piece of silver, blushed again, and didn't know how to speak.

Xu Beiyou turned around and left, did not look back, and waved his hand.

At this moment, the little girl suddenly felt that Brother Beiyou was indeed not the Brother Beiyou before.

She suddenly felt a little sad, for some reason, although this Beiyou brother knows a lot now, looks a lot better, and has a lot more ability, but she still misses the Beiyou brother in the past even more.

If the little girl has the opportunity to get out of this prescription world and take a look at the vast world outside, she will know why she prefers Xu Beiyou at the beginning.

Because today's Xu Beiyou has too much sophistication, ambition, scheming, and even condescending that he himself is not aware of, but only the simplicity of the beginning, or the innocence.

Xu Beiyou didn't notice the subtle changes in the little girl, and reflexively returned to the courtyard, Ding Zeyuan took out a book from the bookcase at some point and was reading slowly.

Xu Beiyou glanced at it, it turned out to be the famous "Taishang Induction Chapter", Xu Beiyou also read, originated from the Taoist "Hug Puzi", after several times carried forward, circulated in the world, far-reaching influence, up to the imperial court, down to the people, printed and disseminated a large number of people, to the Great Zheng Dynasty reached its peak, aimed at persuading goodness, referred to as "induction chapter", and is known as the first good book in ancient and modern times, even when Bai Yunzi compiled the Taoist Collection, this article was also included in it, attributed to the Taiqing Department.

Xu Beiyou can still recite a few sentences of "Taishang Induction Notes" written by Bai Yunzi, "The Taishang, the supreme title of the Daomen, this moves the sense of the other, and the answer from him is that it should be good and evil to move the heaven and earth, and there will be retribution." ”

To put it bluntly, good people have good rewards, which is also the fundamental path of the Daomen Jishan School.

Can't you see that this scholar is still a person who has accumulated good deeds?

Xu Beiyou didn't jump to conclusions, and asked with a smile: "Brother Ding has the heart of the Tao?"

Ding Zeyuan, who was immersed in hard study, raised his head and said with a wry smile: "Brother Xu, don't make fun of me, with my dull qualifications, where can I dare to ask the Daomen immortals to be at ease, and to be able to cultivate a little bit of Haoran Qi, it is already my life's wish." ”

Xu Beiyou smiled, got up and took out a pot of wine from the sword box, "The northwest is cold and bitter, Xihe is a cold and bitter place in the northwest, and this small square village under our feet belongs to the top poor village in Xiheyuan, few scholars come, it is a great fate to meet Brother Ding here, I also have a pot of Fenjiu bought on the way back, the authentic Shaanzhou Laojiao, very strong, all call it a hot throat, if Brother Ding does not dislike it, let's have a few drinks?"

Ding Zeyuan's eyes lit up, without being too polite, and said with a smile: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, but Ding is disrespectful." ”

Xu Beiyou took out two more wine glasses and put them on the square table, and one person filled one glass.

Xu Beiyou picked up his wine glass, and was just about to speak, when he suddenly looked out of the door.

Ding Zeyuan was a little inexplicable, and he also looked out along Xu Beiyou's line of sight, and his eyes widened suddenly.

I saw a black wolf smoke slowly rising in the sky in the distance, and the whole smoke was straight and extremely black, no matter how the wind blew, it would not tilt for half a minute.

Ding Zeyuan muttered to himself: "The desert is lonely and the smoke is straight, and the sun sets on the long river, is this what the book says about wolf smoke? Is there a war on the frontier?"

Xu Beiyou's face was solemn.

There is wolf smoke rising, there must be a foreign invasion, combined with what he saw and heard along the way, this is autumn, I think that the white plague of the grassland has begun to emerge, then the eight achievements are the grassland cavalry southward raiding.

It's just that I don't know if this time is still a small-scale raid as in previous years, or a real army going south.

Xu Beiyou exhaled lightly and muttered, "Wolf smoke rises in the northwest, and the ink stains the sky." ”
