Seeing Xu He thoughtful, Xu Song knew that he had understood what he meant.
This is how you talk to smart people. You can just stop talking. There is no need for the other person to swear or make a promise.
It should be noted that the most unreliable thing in this world is the oath.
Xu Song knew that as long as he did what he could do, everything else would be left to fate.
He said he was tired and looked at the water on the small table beside the bed.
Xu He quickly picked up the bowl and fed him a few mouthfuls with a porcelain spoon.
After finishing the drink, Xu Song asked, "How do you get along with Xie Kun and Li Zhijie?"
This was the second time Xu He asked Xu Song about this matter. Xu He couldn't help but get interested after hearing this.
"My teacher and my uncle were very kind to me. When I left Yangzhou, I went to the teacher to say goodbye. The teacher told me to concentrate on my studies when I went home, and also told me to read more articles by people from the Song Dynasty."
Xu Song nodded and commented: "Famous writers in the Song Dynasty, especially Han Tuizhi, their articles have lofty intentions and ancient writing style. It will be good for you to read the eight-legged principle. His words are correct!"
After that, he then asked: "Where is Xie Kun? Did you correspond with him when you were in Yangzhou?"
Xu Song nodded when he heard this and asked: "What about Xie Kun? Have you exchanged letters recently?"
Xu He shook his head and said, "I only met him once before going to Yangzhou!"
Xu Song said: "You need to keep in touch more, Xie Kun is leaving Hailing soon! After leaving, you will be half of his student. You should write to him more to say hello and ask for advice."
Hearing this, Xu He couldn't bear it anymore and asked: "Uncle, what is the origin of the master?"
Xu Song was a little stunned when he heard this: "You don't know? Didn't Li Zhijie tell you?"
Xu He shook his head.
Xu Song smiled: "Xie Kun is the younger brother of the current queen. He has been deeply loved by the queen since he was a child. When he became an adult, he went to the palace to pay her respects every year. It is said that your majesty also loves Wujiwu and loves this brother-in-law very much!"
Xu He was stunned. He wanted to understand many things in an instant.
Why did Lu Yunhui make a special detour to Hailing County to meet his uncle Xu Song? It was a lie, and the so-called consultation with Xie Kun on military strategy was also a lie. The real purpose was actually to tell the emperor about his difficulties through Xie Kun's mouth.
Also, why would Zhang Jingxian sell his reputation as a judge?
Why did Chen Yingzhao ask the guards to entertain Xu He?
Xu He originally thought that Xie Kun really impressed everyone because of his reputation as a "domestic celebrity".
In fact, everyone is just...
That's not right. At least the teacher Li Zhijie really regarded his uncle as a friend, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten along so casually with him, and even recommended himself as a student to Xie Kun to teach.
Now that I think about it, my teacher is trying to get me on the line with Uncle Guo!
Suddenly, Xu He wanted to understand something again.
"Uncle, with my uncle's talent and knowledge, it shouldn't be difficult to pass the Jinshi examination. He..."
Xu Song smiled and said, "Are you talking about the matter of [I am not tempted at 40]?"
"Hahaha!" The laughter affected Xu Song's condition, causing him to cough violently for a while. He finally managed to regain his breath with Xu He's pat on the back, "This kind of thing is not something that the first assistant can't explain!"
Xu He nodded. With Qin Yan's political level, he would never eliminate the emperor's beloved brother-in-law just because of a joke. The only explanation is that the emperor's intention was behind this, or that Qin Yan had figured out the emperor's intention.
The Wei Dynasty was founded for more than a hundred years, and the harem was filled by small families. The very few concubines who came from aristocratic families were from the founding of the country. This was obviously a lesson learned from the Han Dynasty's foreign relatives' involvement in politics.
Emperors, as long as they are not fools, are elites who manipulate politics. They will make a clear distinction between admiring someone and promoting someone, especially relatives.
Thinking about it this way, no wonder his uncle always looked resentful for not being recognized for his talents. Maybe he had seen through this a long time ago. The so-called objection to Qin Yan was better said to be a disguised expression of his dissatisfaction with Emperor Zhizheng. dissatisfaction.
"Forget it, forget it, don't think about it, the more you think about it, the more complicated it becomes." Xu He thought to himself.
At this time, Xu Song said: "Xie Kun was invited by Lu Yun and will soon leave for Hangzhou to serve as his shogunate to join the army. I asked your second uncle to prepare some gifts for you. You can send them to him before he leaves!"
"Uncle, no need, I myself..."
Before Xu He finished speaking, Xu Song waved his hand gently: "I know that there is still a gap between you and Dazong, and I also heard that your second uncle and Xu Luan have been targeting you!"
Seeing Xu He lowering his head and saying nothing, Xu Song smiled and said, "Don't you take the opportunity to complain?"
Xu He said: "Since my uncle knows these things, my nephew won't go into details!"
Xu Song nodded: "You have resentment in your heart! It's a good thing to have resentment. It can let you know that you are not strong enough to be looked up to or bowed down by. If you want others to look up to you, you must first make others respect you." Do you understand your strength?"
These words he said were serious and thoughtful, neither like the chicken soup of later generations, nor like excusing a large number of people. Instead, they were like a trickle, soaking into Xu He's heart.
Xu He nodded: "My nephew knows how to do it!"
Xu Song said happily: "Many times I want them to change, but... in short, I hope you can be more tolerant and think of the word [Kong Huai] when things happen!"
After finishing speaking, Xu Song suddenly said: "There are two more things!"
"First of all, there is Da Yu in the palace who is coming to Hailing recently. You can find an appropriate opportunity to remind Xie Liangcai!"
Why did the eunuch come to Hailing? Xu He didn't understand what the uncle meant by this sentence. Why go out of your way to know Xie Liangcai? It turned out that Xu Song had always known that he and Xie Liangcai were good friends.
But Xu Song didn't seem to be prepared to explain the matter. Instead, he asked him: "How is that girl from the Feng family doing now?"
Speaking of Feng Xiaozhu, Xu He couldn't help but feel a little moved when he thought of the two of them playing around the hearth before receiving the order.
"Here comes a letter from Fengfang!" Xu Song continued: "He has been camped in Beijing for many days, and finally found his way to Qin Yan and took the position of Shaoqing of Taipu Temple!"
"Is it my uncle who is helping me?" Xu He asked.
Xu Song sighed: "A little bit, mainly because he got through the door of Qin Que, the son of Qin's chief minister. It is said that the two sides are now fighting fiercely!"
Taipu Temple was the yamen responsible for horse administration in the Wei Dynasty. Although it was not a key department, if the young minister of Taipu Temple took one step up and became one of the nine ministers, his future would be bright immediately!
"He wrote a letter asking us to send someone to send the girl to Beijing!"
"..." For a moment, Xu Song and Xu He didn't know what to say.
Finally, Xu Song said: "Actually, I really wanted you to marry a girl from the Feng family, and I would tell Fengfang about getting married or anything like that when you become famous."
"But!" Xu Song frowned, "But Fengfang is really entangled with Shoufu. I don't want you to be with that girl!"
Xu He couldn't help but ask: "Why?"
Although he doesn't have much romantic feelings for Feng Xiaozhu yet, they share the same sorrow after all. Xu He is really a little disappointed that this girl has lived in his home for so long and suddenly left at the last word!
Xu Song shook his head: "Tomorrow I will send someone to your house to pick up the girl and go north. Don't worry about anything else!"
After he finished speaking, he remained silent. Xu He couldn't ask any more questions, so he had to bow and leave!
