Magistrate Gu unceremoniously humiliated Song Wencong, and at the same time welcomed Song Mu and his party into the capital of Shaozhou.
Everyone in Jizhou Prefecture was feeling a lot of sighs at this moment. It was really thought-provoking that when they came to this prefecture before, they were driven out impatiently by others, but now they were welcomed in with such courtesy.
Song Mu was walking with Magistrate Gu at the moment. Although the other party was quite old, he was now a blessing in disguise. He was proud of the spring breeze and he admired Song Mu and his party quite a bit.
While walking here, he also talked about what happened at the top of the city that day. Shang Zuliang and several tutors who were following him all had their eyes opened.
"Although Song Mu is only a scholar, I think he has become a scholar. In such a dangerous situation, ordinary people would shy away, but he rose to the challenge."
"In front of the stele of a great Confucian scholar, three consecutive poems were composed, all of which were originally created on the spot. I, Gu, have never seen this scene where the power of writing is cleansed and the inscriptions on the stele reveal the saintliness in a scholar."
When Magistrate Gu praised Song Mu so much, several people around him were also surprised. Even Fu Zefeng and others who traveled with Song Mu were dumbfounded.
They only knew that Song Mu also followed him into the city to slay the demons that day, but they did not expect that Song Mu would actually do something like this on the west wall to turn the tide.
And from the beginning to the end, Song Mu never said it in front of anyone, and he never mentioned the details of this matter even in his conversation with Tao Fengming.
And then thinking about Song Mu's killing of the demon sect's Jinshi, everyone now connected these things together, and they felt that Song Mu's heroic character was revealed.
Magistrate Gu was also stroking his beard and laughing, but then he remembered something, and then said to Song Mu.
"The October issue of Tianwen Magazine is now available and was delivered to my house today."
When Magistrate Gu said this, Song Mu was suddenly startled, and then looked at him with some surprise.
The two people looked at each other, and Magistrate Na Gu also laughed continuously.
"Only now do I know that you, Song Mu, are the one who wrote the most brilliant poems."
"Now that I think about it, there are five, six, seven, eight and nine poems, all of which have made great achievements!"
Song Mu, who was listening on the side, also looked a little red. At this moment, he felt a little surprised that his poems had appeared in the new "Tianwen Magazine".
"Sir, is it possible that Junior Brother Song's poems are in this latest issue of Tianwen Magazine?"
At this time, Ge Qing next to him asked the other party. The smile on Magistrate Gu's face became even bigger. He looked at Song Mu again and said with a smile on his face.
"Of course, in this October issue, I have already submitted three chrysanthemum poems by Song Mu."
"Now it is also ranked first in poetry in literature and periodicals, and is praised by people all over the world."
Song Mu raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't expect that this was actually done by Magistrate Gu. At this moment, everyone around him had gathered around and congratulated Song Mu.
Fu Zefeng came to his senses immediately and shouted in surprise.
"Ah! Junior Brother Song, if this happens, won't you be listed in "Tianwen Magazine" five times in a row?"
"Yes, from the June issue to the October issue, is Junior Brother Song going to dominate the list for half a year? This is an achievement that countless literati have never been able to achieve!"
There was also a student next to him who said that he was even more excited than Song Mu.
Song Mu just kept handing him over at the moment, not daring to express himself.
This kind of thing can be regarded as a coincidence, even a coincidence. Song Mu didn't know what to say at the moment.
Magistrate Na Gu was also quite happy to hear this at the moment, and his eyes were desperately scanning Song Mu back and forth.
After talking all the way, Song Mu and others arranged to go to the post house next to the government office again, but this time the other party was very attentive, which made Song Mu and others quite uncomfortable.
Song Mu was also constantly surrounded by people, asking Song Mu to explain the situation at the top of the west city wall that day. Song Mu could not bear to be disturbed, so he only gave a rough summary.
After hearing this, everyone was full of praise and invited everyone to visit the west city wall today to see how magical the place where Song Mu originally wrote his great poem was.
Song Mu also smiled in return and didn't say much, especially when he saw Xue Kaiwen who looked disappointed in the corner, he also sighed silently.
After changing the medicine in the room, Song Mu was about to lie on the bed and take a rest, when a boy sent a message.
It turned out to be a post from Magistrate Gu, asking Song Mu to come to his residence for a chat if he had time, have lunch, and attend with everyone in the evening.
When Song Mu received this post, he was a little surprised and asked the boy about it, but he was the only one who received it.
This immediately made Song Mu a little confused, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the Valley Magistrate.
I just always feel that the enthusiasm of today's Gu Zhifu is a bit too much.
And the look in his eyes that looked at him was almost disgusting.
Song Mu shook for no reason and shook off the thoughts that had not yet come to his mind. He also sorted it out at the moment, then went to talk to Tao Fengming again, and then bought some gifts on the street.
Accompanied by Senior Brother and Fu Zefeng, they headed towards Guzhai.
Guzhai is also next to the government office. When Song Mu arrived, the servants there immediately went to inform him and then took Song Mu to the main hall.
It was not yet noon, and Magistrate Gu was still doing business in the government office. Only his wife came to greet her. Song Mu was also flattered and chatted with her in the main hall.
Not long after, there was a noise outside the door, and Magistrate Nagu had already come back and shouted from a distance.
"Song Mu is here, butler, please serve some good tea soon!"
Song Mu quickly stood up, and Magistrate Na Gu had already walked in with a smile. He immediately held hands with Song Mu, and then sat down next to him.
The lady immediately resigned and followed her down with a few servants.
Seeing this situation, Song Mu had some thoughts in his mind. He looked at the other party and said.
"Sir, I didn't know that you asked Wansheng to come here, but what's the matter?"
Magistrate Gu stroked his beard and gave Song Mu some tea, and then asked with a smile.
"In my opinion, Song Mu, you are not very old this year, right?"
Song Mu was stunned for a moment, and he was also in a daze, but he still spoke.
"Sir, I am seventeen this year when I am born. After the twelfth lunar month, I will be eighteen."
"Um."
Magistrate Gu nodded, but his expression became even more joyful. He looked at Song Mu and then spoke directly without hesitation.
"To be honest, Mr. Gu's visit to you today is not a business matter, but a private matter."
"I wonder if the elders in your family can marry you now?"
"ah?"
When Song Mu heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He didn't even think about it at that moment. He came back to his senses after a while and hurriedly raised his hands and said.
"We haven't made any arrangements at home yet. After all, the baby is still quite young."
"You're not young anymore, you're not young anymore. Now you are as beautiful as a tree and have great literary talent. Such a talented man should be matched by a beautiful woman."
When Song Mu heard this, no matter how stupid he was, he knew what Magistrate Gu meant.
This is about finding a marriage for yourself.
Song Muna, who was having a solo, had seen such a scene, and there was a bit of embarrassment on his face. He also raised his head and said to Magistrate Gu.
"Sir, I am currently focused on taking the imperial examination. Both my uncle and my master told me to cut off the love interest of this girl first."
Song Mu said it very euphemistically. An elder is like a father, and his words must be respected. If he kicked the ball away, Magistrate Gu would naturally not be in trouble for Song Mu for a while.
Sure enough, when Song Mu said this, Magistrate Gu was stunned for a moment, but then he asked.
"Your master, that Tao Fengming?"
Song Mu nodded, and Magistrate Gu's face suddenly became a little more intriguing, but the corners of his mouth were even more raised.
