"Mr. Gongsun! Mr. Gongsun!"
As soon as Gongsun Jing returned home, he heard an excited shout from behind him.
He stopped and turned around, and saw Zhang Dazhi running over excitedly, "Mr. Gongsun! Where is Brother Xia!"
Gongsun Jing, full of expectations:.
"The young master should be in the mansion. Is Mr. Zhang looking for him?"
"Yes! Could you please find someone to pass the message to me?"
"Easy to say, easy to say. Come on, Mr. Zhang, let's have some tea here."
After sitting in the main hall for a while, Xia Jingyun yawned and walked out.
Zhang Dazhi immediately stepped forward excitedly and couldn't help but praise repeatedly, "Brother Xia, you are so amazing! You are simply a god!"
Xia Jingyun hummed calmly, "Eunuch Gao, have you sent word to the supervisor?"
Zhang Dazhi was stunned, "How do you know?"
Xia Jingyun smiled and took a sip of tea, "How else do you think this happened today?"
Although Gongsun Jing didn't know what the two were talking about, he still explained dutifully, "Young Master entered the palace early in the morning and came back at noon."
Zhang Dazhi suddenly understood and said quickly: "Eunuch Gao told me privately that from now on, you will be the only one in the Liuli Division who will serve you."
Xia Jingyun was not surprised, "Where's the glass?"
"Don't worry, I still understand this stuff." Zhang Dazhi said with a smile: "At that time, I had people put all the warehouse glass into a warehouse separately, and changed the locks and put seals on them. Although it was impossible to prevent There are thoughtful people, but they have to consider the consequences of offending the imperial power."
He chuckled and said, "Brother, you don't know that Cao Deli's face was almost dark at that time. I wonder if he has lost his mind this year!"
"He deserves it all."
Xia Jingyun nodded and smiled, subconsciously thinking about whether he should take this opportunity to dig a hole for those who wanted to stumbling upon him, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it and said: "In that case, let's do the next thing. Can you please send me ten pieces of glass tomorrow? Then keep an eye on the remaining inventory."
"Don't worry, they wanted to use this glass to block us before, but now it's us who use this glass to block them!"
Xia Jingyun smiled and hummed, "I'll tell you the truth, do this well, and you won't have to take care of anything else. You will definitely have a share in your future success, and it's not me who will do it." your."
After speaking, he pointed to the sky.
Zhang Dazhi suddenly felt a burning sensation in his heart, and he patted his chest and said, "Brother, don't worry, I know how I got this good fortune. I, Old Zhang, have nothing else, and my character is absolutely reliable."
Xia Jingyun nodded knowingly, stood up and cupped his hands, "Okay, nothing else. Have a good New Year! I'll excuse you now."
Looking at Xia Jingyun's back, Zhang Dazhi sighed sincerely, "Brother Xia is amazing, so amazing."
Gongsun Jing twitched his lips and said, "Even in broad daylight, I'm starting to yawn. You have to control yourself!"
"It's okay, I'm still young and will recover quickly."
"Yes, still young."
Xia Jingyun didn't know what the two were talking about. If he knew, he would cry out for Feng Xiuyun and himself.
Last night, he had thought about following the ups and downs of the gentle curves of the mountains and rivers, and letting the horse love the Central Plains love the west peak and the east peak, but didn't he think of a way to break the situation?
In order to prepare for today's dangerous military move, he and the drunk Su Yuanshang spent most of the night deducing last night, and finally slept in the study. There was no time to look at the moon and taste cherries.
Even if he goes back now, he has no time to think about those things. He just called Su Yuanshang and Feng Xiuyun together to discuss some follow-up matters.
When he was done talking, he suddenly looked at Feng Xiuyun, "Has sister encountered anything troublesome recently?"
Feng Xiuyun frowned and thought, and Xia Jingyun added: "It's about pig's education."
Feng Xiuyun's expression changed slightly and she immediately shook her head.
"That's probably because I'm overly concerned."
Xia Jingyun hummed, which was probably just the mother's normal chicken-child anxiety.
He put away the paper with the ink on it and said, "Let's talk about this for now. In the evening, Mr. Bai and I will have a banquet with the old Imperial College professor who hosted the competition with Guangling Prefecture for us that day. He will probably come back later."
Feng Xiuyun and Su Yuanshang had no objections.
Of the two of them, one wants to sort out the entire Jiang'anhou Mansion with higher standards and requirements, and the other, while assisting in this matter, has to think about the next direction of Xia Jingyun and the entire De Fei faction. Very busy.
When it came to Shenshi, Xia Jingyun and Bai Yunbian walked towards Dongcheng with their own guards, with the empty carriage following behind.
Coming out of the warm room, Bai Yunbian, who was shivering with the cold east wind, asked puzzledly: "Why not take a carriage?"
Xia Jingyun smiled and said, "People like you who have been in the Earth Dragon Warming Room for a long time should come out to get some fresh air and exercise."
Bai Yunbian had a look of disbelief and pursed his lips, "You just want to show off your self-righteous appearance and grace in front of the residents and passers-by in Zhongjing City."
Xia Jingyun stopped, looked him up and down, and said, "Can I ask you a question?"
Bai Yunbian nodded proudly.
"If you are a resident of this street and you are at home, you see two young men walking by. One is very handsome and has a great bearing. The other is also very handsome and personable. They talk well. , we had a nice conversation, what do you think of them?"
Bai Yunbian said calmly: "That's all."
Xia Jingyun:.
Absolutely amazing!
He said speechlessly: "Sometimes I really want to knock your head open to see what's in your head!"
"There is no need to be curious, there is no need to imitate, and there is no need to try to catch up. That is the power that belongs to the protagonist alone, and is different from you."
Xia Jingyun twitched the corner of his mouth and patted his shoulder, "Let's go, eat more food."
Not long after, everyone arrived at an ordinary house in Dongcheng. Xia Jingyun went to hand over the name card, and soon the old professor from the Imperial College came out.
After the ceremony, Xia Jingyun invited the old professor into the carriage, and everyone rode in the carriage to Mingyu Tower.
In front of Mingyu Tower, the welcoming boy came up to ask if there was an appointment. Xia Jingyun said yes and then handed over the jade plaque.
When the other party saw it, he immediately improved his already solemn and polite attitude and welcomed everyone in with great enthusiasm.
In the best private room on the third floor, the old professor looked out the window and listened to the warm jade singing softly in the wind. He twirled his beard and chuckled happily, "I am a rotten scholar who only has a little bit of sourness in my chest. This Mingyu Tower Three The level is rarely visited."
Xia Jingyun smiled and said: "Sir, what you said is wrong. A few taels of silver can only be put into one person's belly and get one person's happiness. However, benevolence, righteousness and morality can become the teacher of thousands of people and bring order to the world. How can we say the same thing?"
The old professor smiled and said: "Your mouth is indeed extraordinary! I almost believed it."
Xia Jingyun said seriously: "This junior indeed thinks so. At the same time, I also feel that there is no need to criticize the great scholar. He must live in poverty and be happy, not be tainted by the stench of wealth, and make himself and his family live a better life within his ability and within the reasonable and legal scope. This is for everyone." It’s a pursuit that everyone has, and it’s also a power that everyone should have.”
After hearing this, the old professor was silent for a moment, looked at Xia Jingyun, and said with emotion, "It's a pity that people in the world don't see it that way. Even scholars like us can't keep upright. Once your mind is wrong, you will regard knowledge and reputation as a scholar. If you are so caught up in the methods of amassing money and gaining power, how can you still think about studying. There are quite a few of these people today! So, it is better to put down your thoughts and learn the classics."
Xia Jingyun nodded, remembering that the great scholars from Sishui Province he had met had indeed lost their original intentions as the old professor said, "Mr., you are still thoughtful."
"Okay, please stop flattering me."
The old professor laughed and said, "That day at the Guangling Guild Hall, I saw your strategizing skills with my own eyes. I don't believe that you are so smart that you can't think of this."
Xia Jingyun smiled slightly and did not deny it. Then he chatted with the old gentleman and Bai Yunbian about some interesting things about the scholarly world over the fine wine and delicacies that were served like water.
After talking for a while, the old professor looked at Xia Jingyun, who was performing the ceremony very respectfully, and said with a smile: "I remember that you and the Imperial Concubine are sworn siblings?"
Xia Jingyun hummed, "Thanks to the empress's respect, she gave me the opportunity to climb the dragon and follow the phoenix."
The old professor looked him up and down and said, "If Concubine De sent you there, maybe the situation would be different."
? ? ?
Xia Jingyun and Bai Yunbian both looked puzzled. Xia Jingyun asked directly: "What do you mean by this, sir?"
"You don't know yet?"
The old professor was also a little surprised, and then smiled, "Yes, this matter is only rumored among the scholars, and it is normal for outsiders not to know."
He looked at the two of them who were so curious that they couldn't sit still, and said with a smile: "Empress De Fei wanted to hire some teachers for her prince, so she decided to hire three famous scholars in the capital. I asked three people to beg for help, but they were all rejected without even seeing each other in person. This matter gradually spread, and now many people know about it."
Xia Jingyun's eyes widened, and suddenly he understood where the worry between her sister's brows came from in the Changle Palace that morning.
I was busy going out for two days over the weekend, so the update is late. One chapter first, another chapter later.
