Disrespecting the teacher is a very serious matter in the circle of scholars, or the elite class. Discourtesy can be big or small, so Shen Yi rushes to the academy to visit Master Lu in such a hurry.
After hearing Shen Yi's words, Master Lu stretched out his hand to help Shen Yi up, then sniffed and shook his head slightly: "You smell of alcohol. You must have drank yesterday. Since you drank, there is no need to be in such a hurry. Come here, it’s the same in the morning and afternoon.”
After saying that, he turned sideways and said, "Let's go in and talk."
As Shen Yi walked towards the study, he rubbed his temples and said, "Last night, Brother Yi An invited the students to drink. I couldn't shirk it, so I went with him. I originally planned to come and see him today. My mentor didn’t dare to drink too much, but he held the student and refused to let him go, so he had no choice but to drink a few more drinks.”
While talking, the master and the apprentice had already entered the study. After Shen Yi waited for Lu Anshi to sit down, he lowered his head and poured a cup of hot tea for Mr. Lu, and also poured a cup for himself, and asked: "After seeing each other for a few months, sir, these two I’ll be fine every month.”
"I'm in the academy. I don't have to worry about worldly things, and I don't have to worry about food and clothing. It's naturally good."
Master Lu lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "I have already read your article on the general examination. Although it is well written, it is between good and bad. There are one hundred and thirty-five people in the general examination, and there is no I’m wronging you, but I’m very curious if you can jump from more than 130 people to more than 50 people in the palace examination.”
Master Lu pointed to the pen and ink on his desk and said quietly: "Put out the papers for the palace examination and let me take a look at them."
Although Shen Yi has won the Jinshi now, he is still very well-behaved in front of Lu Anshi. He immediately nodded in agreement and sat down to write the test paper silently.
Putting aside the master-disciple status between the two people, just looking at the results in the examination room, Master Lu was ranked among the top 25 in the city, which is also the 28th in the country. In terms of examination results, he was better than Shen Yi It's a big level higher.
There were not many words in the palace examination paper, only about 400 words. In addition, Shen Yi was still deeply impressed by the fact that the examination had not been completed for a long time. It didn't take long before he silently read out the palace examination paper. After drying the ink, he put his hands on handed it to Master Lu.
Although Lu Anshi prefers to annotate the quotations of saints, as the dean of the academy, he is also interested in matters related to scientific examinations. After taking Shen Yi's test paper, he first read it carefully, and then looked at it with a face. Shang's smile gradually faded and became serious.
"The diction...is similar to the examination, but the intention is slightly higher."
He put down the manuscript and looked up at Shen Yi with a serious expression: "Looking at this article, Zi Heng intends to suppress the Japanese?"
Shen Yi nodded without hesitation.
He looked at Master Lu and said: "Sir, the Japanese pirates have repeatedly harassed our territory in the past twenty years. As far as students know, Fengzhou Prefecture, Fuzhou Prefecture and other places that are far away from Jiankang will not be mentioned for the time being. The areas around Songjiang Prefecture, Mingzhou Prefecture and Xianju near Jiankang have been attacked by Japanese pirates almost every year in recent years."
"After the palace examination, the students met a Jinshi from Mingzhou Prefecture at Qionglin Garden. Because the imperial examination was a Japanese invasion, this Jinshi from Mingzhou Prefecture told us some things about Japanese pirates."
"Only the Mingzhou Prefecture."
Shen Yi took a deep breath, and then said: "In the Mingzhou Prefecture alone, in the five years and one year of Hongde, at least more than a hundred people died in the hands of Japanese pirates. As for the plundered merchant ships, even more It’s impossible to count.”
"The state capital along the coast..."
At this point, Shen Yi did not continue, but just said silently: "The student is incapable now, and one day he will receive an errand from the imperial court, or take charge of some military affairs..."
"Students dare not say such big things as wiping out Japanese pirates within a few years, but if they can kill a hundred Japanese pirates, students will definitely kill one less..."
The hatred of the country and the family.
Shen Yi didn't have any good impressions of the Japanese pirates. As long as he seized the opportunity, let alone solving the hidden dangers of the Japanese pirates along the coast, Shen Yi even wanted to attack the Japanese pirates' main island!
"Um."
Master Lu nodded silently and said, "It's good to have this ambition. Japanese pirates have indeed done a lot of harm to people in recent years."
After he said this, he folded the palace examination manuscript written by Shen Yi in half, stuffed it into a blank envelope, and wrote a few elegant and elegant words on the envelope.
"Shen Yi and Shen Ziheng."
After writing these words, he took down a wooden box from the shelf behind his desk. After opening the wooden box, he put the envelope in and carefully closed the wooden box.
"My teacher, I accepted some students in Jiankang before. There are six of them together with you. These are the test papers that you wrote out after the exam."
After covering the box, Mr. Lu put it back, looked back at Shen Yi, and said with a smile: "You probably didn't use the letters I wrote to you before you went to Jiankang last time, but next time When you go to Jiankang, you can look for them according to the address on the letter. Four of your five senior brothers are now officials in the court, and maybe they can help you."
Shen Yi stood in front of Master Lu and said with a smile: "Speaking of Jiankang, the student is planning to invite his teacher to go to Jiankang with him to walk around."
"My mentor has not returned to Jiankang for seven or eight years. It is not necessary to stay in Jiankang for a long time. It is also good to stay for a few months, meet old friends and relax."
After Master Lu heard these words, he did not respond immediately. Instead, he put away the wooden box slowly and sat back on his chair: "Brother Changping taught you to say this, or Qingque taught you to say this. of?"
Shen Yi quickly lowered his head and said: "Teacher, the student has not seen his junior sister since he came back this time..."
This sentence directly confessed to Minister Zhao.
This is not that Shen Yi is pulling the banner.
Zhao Changping and Lu Jizhong are close friends. The two old friends have not seen each other for many years, and Zhao Shilang is busy with official duties and cannot do without Jiankang, so naturally he hopes that Lu Anshi can go to Jiankang.
Before Shen Yi came back, Minister Zhao had told him about this.
Hearing this, Lu Anshi was silent for a moment, but did not respond immediately. Instead, he said, "Well, since you haven't met Qingque yet, just go find her. You senior brothers and sisters are the same age, and we have something to say together."
Shen Yi stood up quickly, cupped his hands to Lu Anshi and said, "Student, please obey."
Master Lu said "Yes" and then said: "Before you go to see Qingque, you must first meet Mr. Qin. He was very happy when he knew that you were a Jinshi. He drank for several days in a row. That is also yours." Teacher, please don’t neglect me.”
"Students save money."
Shen Yi quickly lowered his head: "I was originally going to see Mr. Qin."
Lu Anshi nodded, waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
"When it's noon, you can stay and have a meal. I have some things to ask you about Di Bao."
Hearing the word "Di Bao", Shen Yi's heart skipped a beat, but he still lowered his head and said, "Students obey."
"The First Clan"
In this way, Shen Yi left Master Lu's study and found Mr. Qin in the academy. Mr. Qin was very happy after seeing Shen Yi. He watched Shen Yi talk and looked at Shen Yi with both happiness and envy in his eyes.
After all, Mr. Qin is just a student, that is, a scholar.
He has never been admitted to the imperial examination, let alone Jinshi.
After staying at Mr. Qin's house for about half an hour, Shen Yi stood up to say goodbye. Before leaving, Shen Yi said goodbye to Mr. Qin, and then asked: "Sir, how is my brother?"
Mr. Qin's face was full of smiles, and there was some excitement in his smile: "Jiulang is much better than Ziheng when you were in the academy."
After hearing this answer, Shen Yi said goodbye with satisfaction and then came to the Lu family's small courtyard in the backyard of the academy.
Standing at the door of the yard, Shen Yi hesitated for a long time, then took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
This time it was no longer Lian'er who opened the door, but Miss Lu with a smile.
"Junior sister, I'm back."
Shen Yi's tone was friendly.
Miss Lu smiled and nodded, stepped aside, and motioned for Shen Yi to come in.
"Father told me that senior brother is having dinner at home today."
She looked at Shen Yi and said softly: "The food is ready. Senior brother, come in and sit down."
