Chapter 040 Pei Hui's Apprenticeship
Chapter 040 Pei Hui Apprentices to Master
"Come on, I'll drink with you all, and I won't be drunk today." Li Longji was in a very happy mood and raised his glass to drink it all one after another.
The singing and dancing sounded again. In the graceful dance postures of dozens of dancers who were floating in ecstasy, Zhang Xuan sat cross-legged, occasionally looking at Cui Ying with a clear look.
At the beginning, Cui Ying avoided and dodged a little, but in just a moment, the girl's expression became as calm and elegant as usual, and her eyes became very calm.
Drinking all the time, except Zhang Xuan, including Emperor Li Longji, was actually a little drunk. Yang Yuhuan leaned half on Jindun with drunken eyes, smiling as if she was not smiling, and she was still charming and seductive.
Mrs. Guo was a little depressed and depressed, drinking one cup after another.
The young man Pei Hui, who was beside her, looked a little swam and fell on Zhang Xuan from time to time. After a song, the dancer stepped down. Pei Hui seemed to have hesitated for a long time and suddenly stood up to go to Li Longji. Without waiting for everyone to react, she bowed and said softly, "Pei Hui is willing to worship Mr. Zhang as his teacher, and ask the emperor to make the decision."
Li Longji looked at Pei Hui with some surprise and smiled slightly, "Pei Hui, you are interested in learning and being ambitious, and it is worthy of praise. It's just this matter of apprenticeship..."
Li Longji pondered and glanced at Zhang Xuan intentionally or unintentionally.
Zhang Xuan instantly understood the emperor's meaning, and then stood up and smiled and declined, "Emperor, Zhang Xuan is young and has little talent and knowledge, so he really dares to be a teacher... If Mr. Pei doesn't dislike him, Zhang Xuan is willing to date the prince and discuss poetry and essays at all times."
Zhang Xuan is not pretentious. He has no intention of being a role model, although this seemingly weak Pei Hui left him a little favor. Moreover, in terms of appearance, he is still a young man who is not as weak as a young man, and it is not appropriate to be someone else's husband at this age.
Of course, he did not reject contact with Lady Guoguo and his son. Because before, he had already decided his attitude towards the Yang family in the future.
From the beginning, he had no intention of becoming a party with Yang Guozhong. Although Li Linfu was a treacherous minister, Yang Guozhong was not a good thing. The infamous left in history was even better than Li Linfu.
It is neither far nor near, it is close or far away. This is the attitude.
You can pass by the wife of Guoguo and his son, or even win the support of Yang Yuhuan in the palace, but you will never get along with Yang Guozhong. In other words, the Yang family is his power to take advantage of the momentum rather than a backer. For time traveler Zhang Xuan, it is the best choice to arrange his future life by relying on his information forward-looking advantages and accurate judgment of the current situation.
Zhang Xuan's immediate statement obviously won a certain favor from Li Longji. Although Zhang Xuan was talented, Li Longji, as the emperor, naturally liked talented subjects, but what Li Longji hated most in his life was the kind of arrogant person who was arrogant. Li Bai was very talented at the time, but he still did not get his value. The reason was that Li Bai was too wild and made Li Longji feel uncomfortable.
At this moment, if Zhang Xuan showed a little "fulfilled" or was floating and unaware of the reason, Li Longji would suppress it without mercy, and his previous favor for Zhang Xuan would be instantly gone.
But Pei Hui looked weak and cowardly, but in fact he was quite stubborn. He couldn't even get back what he had decided on.
He lay on the ground and bowed and said, "As long as you study, those who are good at it are the first. Mr. Zhang is full of talent and knowledge, and Pei Hui admires it very much... begging the emperor to make the decision for the boy."
Li Longji frowned. Pei Hui was like this. If it were someone else, he would have had an attack long ago. But Pei Hui was Yang Yuhuan's nephew and the only son of Mrs. Guoguo, so he couldn't embarrass this junior too much.
"You little servant, you are stubborn." Li Longji smiled reluctantly and turned his head to look at Lady Guo.
Mrs. Guo's eyes flashed, and she stood up silently and bowed, "Your Majesty, my Hui'er has been fond of poetry since she was a child... I saw that Zhang Xuan had learned talent and had both virtue and talent. Hui'er could always be taught by his side, so I felt relieved."
"Sanlang, this is also a beautiful thing. Zhang Xuan's talent is worthy of teaching Huier. It is better to imitate the ancients, named teachers and students, but actually brothers. What do you think about Sanlang?" Seeing that the third sister and son insisted on doing this, Yang Yuhuan helped him speak.
When she spoke, Li Longji couldn't say anything. He smiled faintly and waved his hand, "Yuhuan is right. Since that's the case, Zhang Xuan, as the imperial concubine said, you and Pei Hui were named teachers and students, and they were actually brothers, and they studied poetry together in order to serve the court in the future."
Although Zhang Xuan was not very happy, he really couldn't refuse this matter.
Zhang Xuan has always been a decisive and determined person. He knew that his push for three obstacles would not only be of no use, but would also arouse the emperor's disgust and then offend Lady Guo State and his son. It would be better to agree quickly and quickly. This is not a great thing.
Pei Hui raised his head, and a hint of joy flashed across his pretty and tender face.
Today, Zhang Xuan's talent and knowledge have completely conquered this young man. He has always wanted to find a good teacher to guide him, but there is never a suitable person. When he meets Zhang Xuan, he naturally refuses to let him go.
The banquet that day ended happily.
Emperor Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan returned to the palace with all their might, but Lady Guo was drunk long ago and was helped to rest by her maid.
At sunset, Zhang Xuan rested for half an hour in the guest room at Lady Guo’s Mansion, and then left. At the door of Lady Guo’s Mansion, he happened to meet Princess Yuzhen Li Chiying and Cui Ying who were about to go out to take a car.
"Goodbye to Your Highness Yuzhen." Zhang Xuan went forward and saluted.
Li Chiying smiled gracefully and nodded, "Zhang Xuan, you are very successful today and are deeply loved by the emperor and the empress. You are extremely talented and extraordinary, and I am quite praised by you. However, I have a few words in my heart."
"Please give me advice." Zhang Xuan was stunned and thought to himself, what else do you have to say?
"The wood is beautiful in the forest and wind will definitely destroy it... In this world, you still need to know the right way and right. I hope you can be modest and cautious, and not be arrogant just because of your talent..." Li Chiying's voice was very calm. She turned around and glanced at her goddaughter Cui Ying who stood beside her silently, and smiled, "You have an engagement with Ying'er, and you are considered a junior in this palace. If you are someone else, I wouldn't bother to say these unpleasant words."
"The Queen of the Japanese Palace held a banquet at the Yushi Temple to announce to the world, so come too."
Zhang Xuan laughed in his heart, thinking that you still need to teach such words? If we can't even grasp this sense of measure, then we may not be able to survive in this prosperous Tang Dynasty.
But on the face, Zhang Xuan bowed humbly, "Your Highness teaches Zhang Xuan, keep it in mind."
Li Chiying nodded in praise, looked at him again, waved his hand, "I am going to go. Ying'er, let's go."
Cui Ying silently followed Li Chiying into the car. Before leaving, she didn't look at Zhang Xuan. Instead, she asked Zhang Xuan to stand there and watch Princess Yuzhen's luxurious carriage slowly leave, feeling a little sad.
After getting into the car, Li Chiying smiled softly, "Yinger, this kid is really good. Mother sees that he will not be a thing in the pool in the future. You should be content with such a husband."
At this moment, Cui Ying relaxed physically and mentally. She sighed quietly: "Mom, Ying Er is actually indifferent... In the past, he was a famous playboy in Chang'an City, but suddenly, it became unbelievable... His talent was the only one in Ying Er's life, but the more this happened, the less real Ying Er felt... "
