Chen Chao has been gone for a few days, but Xie Nandu didn't care about it. She just occasionally looked at the pile of books she had read and no one came to continue reading, which made her feel a little uncomfortable. It's just that the emotions were very light.
It won't affect her in any way.
Wei Xu came to the courtyard today. The maid Liu Ye knew that the ordinary-looking scholar in front of her had an extraordinary identity, so she hurriedly went to make tea to entertain the guests.
Wei Xu interrupted with a wave of his hand, but took out the two letters in his hand and handed them to Xie Nandu, saying somewhat strangely, "Sir, you already know that junior sister wants to learn the way of swordsmanship."
When he spoke, he was actually a little confused. He had already asked Xie Nandu not to tell his husband about this matter before, but he did not expect that his husband already knew about it. Today he received a letter from the north and was about to bring it to him.
I handed it to Xie Nandu, but I never thought that my husband would also take out a letter and ask him to bring it with him.
The letter was written by the same person, and since there were two letters, he probably knew it.
Xie Nandu shook his head and said, "I didn't tell sir."
Wei Xu thought for a while and said clearly, "Since this is in the academy, there is nothing we can hide from you sir." ??
In the academy, the dean is actually like a god.
"Since Mr. didn't stop me, he even wrote a letter for my junior sister to ask the junior sister to reply to the letter. I guess he already gave his tacit approval. If my junior sister is free, she can also try to practice. I think it depends on my junior sister's understanding, and if I have
There shouldn't be any big problems with that junior brother's letter."
After Wei Xu said this, he turned around and left.
Xie Nandu suddenly asked, "Senior Brother, there are rumors circulating in the academy that the library is haunted. Does Senior Brother know the inside story?"
Originally, Xie Nandu didn't care about such things, but the haunting thing started to spread the day she was reading the sword cultivation method in the library, which made her a little curious.
Wei Xu frowned and said with unprecedented displeasure, "This haunting thing is really nonsense. They are all scholars from the Liang Dynasty. How can we believe these ghosts and gods? Even if ghosts wander around after death, how can they do evil?"
Compared with the previous dynasties, the most obvious difference between the Daliang Dynasty and the previous dynasties is that the Daliang Dynasty never believed in ghosts and gods. Those wild temples in the mountains and fields were all abandoned by the Daliang Dynasty.
Xie Nandu smiled and said softly, "That'll make it okay."
Wei Xu nodded with a smile and left quickly.
After Wei Xu left, Xie Nandu lowered his head and opened one of the two letters. As soon as he opened it, a sword intent overflowed. It was sharp and murderous. Before Xie Nandu could react, his sleeve was cut again.
The sword intent shattered it.
She pulled out the letter paper.
"I heard that Mr. collected it for us.
I am very happy, and I also know that my junior sister intends to explore the path of swordsmanship. When I saw my brother’s faith, I was really happy, and I suddenly realized that I am not alone in my path..."
When I opened the letter, the sword intent was gone, and there was only a feeling of joy. From the content of the letter, one can imagine how happy the dean's disciple who was killing demons in the north was when he wrote the letter.
After a brief greeting and an expression of joy, there was a long paragraph of notes on sword practice, as well as many of the swordsman's insights into the way of the sword.
Xie Nandu quickly read the letter and then opened another letter.
That letter was written by the dean to the north, asking the disciple to reply.
Naturally, it is more valuable than the letter written by Wei Xu.
When I opened the envelope, there was also a sword intent, but it was not as big and it was very ordinary.
"My husband mentioned that my junior sister's book was the one that taught me the way to enlightenment in swordsmanship. Brother, I admire you very much. You must know that that person's swordsmanship has been the best in this world for hundreds of years. I can't hide it.
When I first started practicing swordsmanship, I didn’t dare to start with this volume. The way my junior sister was doing this made me really envious of my brother. However, I heard from my husband that my junior sister is a genius in the art of swordsmanship, so my brother can figure out the joints.
Already..."
The things mentioned in this letter are much simpler. They are all based on the difficult problems in the sword cultivation method in that volume. This senior brother explained clearly and gave many examples in many places.
Therefore, Xie Nandu read this letter very slowly, not reading or reading, but absorbing the content word by word.
So by the time she finished reading this letter, it was already afternoon.
The sun begins to set in the west.
Xie Nandu put down the letter in her hand and rubbed her forehead tiredly, but she still didn't see the boy. She felt a little irritable, so she patted the low table next to the chair.
Liu Ye quickly ran towards this side and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"
Xie Nandu didn't speak. How could he say some words?
Liu Ye tentatively wanted to speak, but after Xie Nandu glanced at her, she immediately shut her mouth.
…
…
Outside the low-rise house.
Chen Chao casually took off a small, slender branch from a tree on one side of the long street, put it in his mouth, took it out, and then burped.
His style is like
It was so bad that he went to a certain family and defrauded them of food.
Song Lian walked beside him and exclaimed, "It's really good."
Chen Chao rubbed his bulging belly and said, "Sir, my sister-in-law's craftsmanship is really good. You must work hard quickly. After you get married, you can eat this kind of food every time."
Listening to his sister-in-law being addressed like this, Song Lian smiled with satisfaction and said, "Of course, yes, it won't be long, but it won't be long, but I have to thank you anyway. If it weren't for you, I, an old man with his crotch buried in the ground, would probably
I will be melancholy for many more years."
Chen Chao chuckled and didn't say anything.
These days, he did not return to the academy. Firstly, it was because the Ten Thousand Willow Conference was about to be held and he needed to prepare well. Therefore, the frequency of exercising his muscles and bones these days was getting faster and faster, almost once every two days. Such intensity would not be considered normal.
I'm afraid it's a bit overwhelming, but Chen Chao doesn't care. As for his spare time, Chen Chao also works very hard to help his immediate boss solve his own major issues.
Fortunately, through Chen Chao's efforts, the woman now had a good impression of Song Lian. During the meal before, the woman even took the initiative to pick up food for Song Lian.
If nothing happens, Song Lian will get his wish in a while.
The two left the low courtyard and soon came to a wider street, with some left-back guards standing on both sides.
"Sir, what is this?"
Chen Chao was a little surprised. He didn't expect to see Zuo Wei's servants here.
Song Lian glanced at him and said casually, "These days, those monks from outside the country have entered the capital. Now that the day is approaching, more and more people are coming. Today there are some important people. Zuo Wei has been ordered to escort them."
Chen Chao said with a smile, "Then I'll go back, I won't delay my lord's work."
Song Lian was about to nod, but then he thought about it and smiled and said, "Boy, you are also the deputy commander of my left guard. It stands to reason that you should see how my left guard does things on weekdays. If one day I, the commander,
If you die suddenly, maybe you can directly take charge of the left guard."
Chen Chao smiled and said, "My lord, you are at the peak of your spring and Autumn period. How can you say such a thing? But since my lord has said so, I will just go with you today and take a look. Just treat it as an experience in advance."
Song Lian nodded and glanced at Weng Quan, who was already at the side. The latter understood and led a magnificent white horse out. Chen Chao took the reins and climbed on the horse, which seemed very natural.
Song Lian sat on the horse and looked at this scene and asked curiously, "What? Have you ridden before?"
Chen Chao shook his head. When he was the governor of Tianqing County, there wasn't even a government office. There were no horses anywhere. But after killing too many monsters in the mountains, his body would be infected with some evil spirits. This white horse is psychic and can sense. At this moment,
He didn't dare to resist.
Song Lian just said it casually and didn't care when he saw that it was not like this. He just waved his hand and walked towards the city gate.
He was the commander, so he naturally walked at the front. Chen Chao, the deputy commander, followed beside him, riding a horse slower than him.
"Sir, when the foreign monks come to the capital of God, is it not the Ministry of Rites that arranges these things? When will Zuo Wei get involved?"
Chen Chao sat on the horse and looked around, feeling a little bored.
Song Lian said calmly, "What kind of prestige can those weak scholars in the Ministry of Rites have among these monks? It's true that it was always the Ministry of Rites before, but in fact, there was always a vice president of the Tianyuyuan present. You know that person, too."
You have seen it on the bank of South Lake."
Chen Chao nodded and quickly remembered the vice-dean who looked like a rich man.
"It's still him as usual today, but this time among the people who came to Shendu, there was a woman with a very important status. Well, she should be a little girl. We always have to pay more attention to it, otherwise big problems will occur."
Song Lian smiled and said, "But no one would do anything in Shendu. After all, this is the capital of the Liang Dynasty."
Chen Chao raised his eyebrows and said, "Little girl?"
"What kind of little girl?"
Song Lian frowned and said, "What are you thinking about? That Xie girl treated you like this, do you have other ideas?"
Chen Chao said seriously, "Isn't that an attitude of appreciation? Sir, you are thinking wrong."
Song Lian sneered, but didn't care. He just said, "That little girl is the saint of Wantian Palace. She has a good reputation outside the country. Do you know Wantian Palace?"
Chen Chao nodded.
Chixinguan is the leader of one of the two branches of Taoism, and Wantian Palace is the head of the other branch. Since that little girl is a saint, her status is already extraordinary. Now it is natural that the Liang Dynasty pays more attention to her.
"Actually, we have some special intentions this time. Chixinguan and Daliang have never had any friendship, but Wantian Palace is different. The court now pays more attention to Wantian Palace's performance, which may give the court an additional ally."
Song Lian said with emotion, "His Majesty the Emperor probably thinks about these things every day. It is really difficult for His Majesty."
Chen Chao didn't take it seriously and said with a smile, "As an emperor, if you don't worry about the world, why should you worry about it?"
