"Practice?" Xue Poye was surprised: "Teacher, are you leaving?"
Lao Tan smiled and said: "I've almost done what I need to do, and I have to leave." There was a hint of sadness and emotion in his voice.
Xue Poye was silent for a moment, and finally asked: "When will we leave?"
"The day after tomorrow!" Old Tan Fuxu said with a smile, "I've been away from Kyoto for quite a while, I'm afraid there are a lot of things waiting for me there."
Xue Poye suddenly felt a sense of loss, very light, but very real. Only then did he realize that Lao Tan had always been in his heart. Maybe in some subconscious way, Lao Tan had really become his own.
backing.
Lao Tan seemed to notice something was wrong with Xue Poye's expression, and said softly: "Poye, this is just a temporary farewell. You don't have to worry about it. It won't be long before you and I, master and disciple, will meet again. There are thousands of lines in this world, and this is the line between you and me."
But it can’t be stopped, haha, but having said that, you have to work hard and learn what you need to learn.”
He is patient and extremely sincere.
A few dead leaves were blown up by the wind and fell on the surface of the pond, swaying gently, feeling lonely and lonely.
Xue Poye always couldn't figure out why Lao Tan valued a nobody like him. He really couldn't figure it out. When there was no result in the end, he just didn't think about it. But there was a clear mark in his heart that his life might have to be changed.
Deeply connected with this old man, maybe one day, Lao Tan will have a very reasonable explanation for his importance. Maybe... the journey of life will erase this fate.
| "Students should remember the teacher's lessons."
I'll give you...hehe, I'll give you a 30% discount!"
Lao Tan laughed heartily and cursed: "You bastard, you even have to do my business. Last time I asked you to run an errand, where is the money left?"
Xue Poye said sternly: "Teacher, if you don't mention it, I'll forget about it. Now that you mention it, I'll tell you directly, student. At that banquet, there were not only 1,000 but also 800 people. They spent the whole day happily. The bench fee, service fee, etc.
Fees, tea, cakes, staple food, soup, cleaning, etc., a total of one thousand taels of silver were spent, and you only gave me eight hundred taels. Speaking of which, I also gave you more than two hundred taels. Originally,
I want to forget about this matter, and it can be considered as a way of honoring your elders. Since you bring it up now, well, give me back my two hundred taels!"
Lao Tan laughed and scolded: "What about the service fee and cleaning fee? You are just messing around, you bastard." He sighed and said, "Everyone likes money. That thing can be used to do many, many things. You can do it in the world only for profit. You have to understand that you don't
If you go to earn money just for the sake of it, think about what you will do with the money. One tael of silver can do the same thing as one tael of silver, and ten thousand taels of silver can do the same thing as ten thousand taels of silver. What you get in exchange for this is nothing more than physical pleasure. You millions
Where are the taels of silver? Where are the tens of millions of taels of silver?"
Xue Poye was stunned and frowned. What Lao Tan said was really profound.
Seeing Xue Poye's confused look, Lao Tan laughed and said, "I won't go to your place today. The banquet has been arranged. It will be held at the Lu Mansion. Their back garden is bright and beautiful. Tonight
There are so many people here, and officials, big and small, are naturally going to go. The Lu family is so kind to invite us, so we can’t offend their family’s reputation.” After a pause, he suddenly said: “The eldest brother of the second daughter-in-law of the Lu family is here to take care of things.
Government official, do you know this?"
Xue Poye knew that the second daughter-in-law of the Lu family mentioned by Lao Tan was naturally Mrs. Fang. His eldest brother was on errands in Zhanshi Mansion. He had heard about it in Qinghefang that day, but not in detail. He shook his head and said, "I have never heard of it."
Old Tan nodded slightly and said softly: "Fang Zhenyuan works in Zhan Shifu and is close to the prince. Although his title is not high, he is quite powerful."
Xue Poye said "Oh", and he naturally understood in his heart that the so-called "third-rank official in front of the prime minister's door" means that the gatekeeper of the prime minister's house also has some power. Ordinary officials should be polite and obedient when they meet, and the people around the prince naturally
It's even more awesome.
The fact that the Fang family was able to become powerful in Jiangnan was naturally due to Fang Zhenyuan's influence.
Xue Poye is not a fool, and he can naturally figure out the key. With Fang Zhenyuan's support, the Fang family can become a big family in Jiangnan. In fact, it is very likely that it is the prince's accountant, and he has to contribute an unknown amount of money every year to honor him.
, and the Lu family was able to run rampant in Hangzhou only with the help of the Fang family, which also shows how huge the prince's expenses were.
"You will naturally meet these people in the future, but that will happen in the future. Right now, you need to get along well with He Ruhui. You two are my confidants in Hangzhou, so we can't be together anymore." Lao Tan's voice was a bit awkward.
serious.
Xue Poye felt a little disgusted when he thought about getting along with obscene and flattering people like He Ruhui, but Lao Tan's voice was stern and he could only say: "Try it best, in any case, students will not join in with him and do something that is harmful to nature.
"
Lao Tan nodded slightly and said softly: "You and he have a bad temperament, so forcing you to be together is a bit difficult, but for... well, just for the sake of my teacher's face, we must not oppose each other."
Xue Poye was silent for a moment, and finally said with a smile: "Since the teacher said this, the students will naturally get along with him in their own way."
"No matter what method you use, as long as there is no conflict between you two, I will feel relieved here in Hangzhou." Old Tan was a little tired. Too many thoughts made him exhausted physically and mentally. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "Go, go first."
Make arrangements for Mrs. Wang, and if you have anything to talk about tonight, you can go directly to the Lu Mansion in the evening and state your name, so no one will stop you."
Xue Poye saw Lao Tan showing a tired look, bowed and said, "Students, please leave first!" He turned around and walked a few steps, then suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "Teacher, you are old, you should take care of your health!"
A relieved smile appeared on Lao Tan's face, and he waved, "Go!"
Just as Xue Poye left, a figure hurriedly walked over to Lao Tan and said respectfully: "Sir, everything has been arranged!" It was the horse guard among the four guards.
Lao Tan looked gloomy and said seriously: "Are you sure it's okay there?"
The horse guard said with certainty: "Don't worry, sir. I have been there for three days. I am familiar with the place. The terrain is complex and the road in the middle is extremely narrow. It is a very dangerous place. They will most likely choose to ambush there."
Old Tan nodded, put the fishing rod next to him, stroking his beard and pondering for a moment, with a cold light shining in his eyes, and whispered: "Then have you explored the places where we ambush?"
The horse guard said simply and clearly: "Yes, I have made arrangements. Don't worry, sir. Unless they don't come, if they come, their entire army will be destroyed without leaving a single person behind."
Lao Tan chuckled and said: "You still have to keep it, you have to keep some alive."
"Yes!" Ma Guard said respectfully, "I understand."
Old Tan stood up from the marble chair, was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "I am a knife maggot, and you are a fish, how can you fight with me, a little evil villain?" A cruel sneer appeared on his face.
????????????????????????????????????????????????
Xue Poye left the government office and saw that the crowd had dispersed a lot. Mrs. Wang and her two children were still sitting upright on the stone steps. Zhang Hu stood aside and said nothing when he saw Xue Poye coming over.
, then smiled and said: "Brother Xue, you have come out. These scholars are really noisy. I beat two of them and scared most of them away."
Xue Poye felt ashamed, this tiger really dared to attack!
Seeing the remaining people piled up and Zhang Hu pointing and pointing, they all looked extremely angry.
Very angry.
He immediately thanked Zhang Hu and helped the two children onto the horse. He led the horse in front and led Mrs. Wang and her son to find a place to live.
Naturally, he couldn't find a good place for a while. Since Xue Poye wanted to help, he naturally thought of Mrs. Wang's identity and couldn't just find a simple place to stay. Xue Poye was very particular about this. Now that he has taken action
, you have to do your best, otherwise there is no need to take action.
Since Mrs. Wang believed in Xue Poye, she naturally had no objections
Along the way, people who understood what happened praised Xue Poye for his benevolence and righteousness, and gave thumbs up. The biggest advantage of this talented young man is that the media is quick to respond. It was spread around that Xue Poye had not found a place to live yet. This good reputation
The news spread throughout the streets and alleys of Hangzhou, and everyone knew that the shopkeeper Xue of Lan Yuexuan was a brave man who was not afraid of the power of the government, punished the Lu family's unruly servants, and helped Mrs. Wang's orphans and widows.
The talent of the talented people was immediately displayed to the fullest. They praised Xue Poye as a rare hero, almost on a par with all the heroes of the past and present. Some talented people with outstanding literary talents have already written poems to praise him.
The world is rotten!"
Xue Poye really didn't expect such a result. It seemed that there had been no heroic deeds in Hangzhou for too long. Today, under Wang Shizhen's entrustment, he acted righteously. On the contrary, he catered to the "need for heroes" in the culture. The talented literati were greatly
Although he showed his literary talents, he developed a true hero who was upright and courageous based on the facts.
