"I've already said that I am Changsun Chong, why don't you believe it?"
Changsun Chong shouted angrily and struggled with his arms. The strength he had gained from running and doing hard work in the valley for the past few days came in handy at this moment. The servant who was holding him down was thrown away more than two meters by his brute force and fell heavily.
On the ground, he screamed. His companion was panicked when he saw this, not because he was worried about his injuries, but because the two of them were responsible for guarding the door, and a villain was let in. Moreover, this person was so powerful that if he broke in
Entering the back house, the consequences will be disastrous!
Regardless of the injury of his companion, the servant rushed into the house to report the news. As he ran, he shouted: "Oh no! A murderer has come to the door. Where are the guards? Guards."
Changsun Chong looked at his hands blankly, and then at the servant who was thrown out by him. Suddenly he realized that he was already so strong. During this time, he had been suffering in the valley with his classmates.
They are almost the same, and I can't feel much change. Now that I have another reference, I have a real feeling. It turns out that I have not only lost weight, but also increased my strength. If it were in the past, let alone throwing people away, it would be
It’s impossible to break free!
While he was in a daze, the guards from Zhao Guogong's mansion had already heard the news, and they all held sharp knives and surrounded Changsun Chong. Changsun Wuji happened to be at home. Hearing that someone dared to break into his mansion, he followed him curiously.
He came out to see the situation. He was really just curious. Is there anyone in the Tang Dynasty who dared to knock on his door? Even Li Mu probably wouldn't have the courage, unless he wanted to rebel!
But when Changsun Wuji came to the door and saw the person clearly, he was stunned for a moment.
Others couldn't recognize Changsun Chong, who had lost fifty pounds. How could Changsun Wuji not recognize him? He couldn't believe his eyes. It had only been a few days. Even if he cut the flesh with a knife, he couldn't cut it so fast. This was
Really?
Changsun Wuji pushed away the guard next to him, leaned forward blankly, and asked tentatively: "But... Chong'er?"
The eldest grandson's tears rolled down his face and he knelt down: "Dad"
Hearing this cry, Changsun Wuji confirmed that it was his own son. Other people's sons could not cry in such a cowardly manner. Although he was surrounded by family members who were familiar with Changsun Chong's virtues, Changsun Wuji was still a little embarrassed.
Throwing his hand, the servant got up from the ground and hurriedly crawled to the ground to close the door.
Changsun Wuji dismissed his guards, helped Changsun Chong up, looked him up and down carefully, and said, "My son, why have you lost so much weight?"
"It's not all Li." Changsun Chong was about to say, "That guy Li Mu," but when the words came to his lips, he stopped like a reflex and said, "It's all the teachings of my mentor."
"Ah?" Changsun Wuji looked at his son in confusion. Of course he knew Changsun Chong's prejudice against Li Mu. When he was outside, he just pretended. Why did he come back home and call each other his mentor? This is really
His own son?
Changsun Chong seemed to have guessed Changsun Wuji's doubts. He grinned awkwardly and said: "Dad, the rules of the academy are that you can't break the etiquette at home. A teacher is a teacher, right or wrong, good or bad, he is a teacher. As a student
You can't say anything wrong with your mentor."
Changsun Wuji saw Changsun Chong like this, and his heart skipped a beat. Isn't this child of mine been tortured to death? With tears in his eyes, he raised his hand and stroked Changsun Chong's cheek, saying: "My son, if you have suffered
If you want to bully, just say it. Don't be afraid of anything. Although Li Mu is favored by the Holy Spirit, he is not easy to mess with. But we are not easy to bully. Your aunt is here and can make the decision for you!"
"I..." Changsun Chong wanted to express his bitterness, but at this moment, recalling the scenes that happened in the valley, he suddenly realized that he could not speak out!
Did Li Mu bully him? He bullied him.
Is it being persecuted? It’s being persecuted!
But ultimately, everything happens for a reason. It is because the students cannot meet his requirements that he takes measures. He is the principal, can he be said to be wrong?
You have learned a real skill. Can you turn around and arrange things for others? You can't do it even if you have a little conscience.
Changsun Chong pursed his lips and said, "Father, my mentor is very good to me."
Changsun Wuji took his son's hand and was about to speak when he suddenly felt something was wrong. He quickly lowered his head to look and was shocked: "Son, why are your hands so rough and these scars... He actually tortured you?"
Changsun Wuji was furious: "Li Mu Shu has bullied others too much. He dares to treat you like this. I will never be able to divorce him. Come and follow me."
"Dad!" Changsun Chong quickly stopped Changsun Wuji, spread out his palms and said, "You can't blame the teacher. This is because the child is too stupid and learns slowly. Classmates who learn quickly do not suffer so many injuries."
"You learn quickly or you learn slowly?" Changsun Wuji became even more confused and said, "What did you learn, and why did you get injured?"
When Changsun Wuji asked about this, Changsun Chong said proudly: "Dad, this is the scar left by learning carpentry. We all learned it together. When my son made the bench, he was still at the bottom, but now, my son can
I made hollow carvings of tables, chairs and window lattice by myself. In the last test, I ranked eighth. My teacher even praised the child for his talent!"
Changsun Wuji was stunned.
He looked at Changsun Chong carefully again, tried his best to smile, patted his shoulder, and said: "Son, you have worked hard. Go and wash up quickly. I have seen your mother. She has not seen you for so many days.
, I miss you all. I still have some things to do, so you go first."
Changsun Chong did not doubt that he was there, nodded and said: "Then I will take a bath first, and then go to see my mother."
Changsun Wuji waved his hand, and the eldest grandson rushed to the back house. Changsun Wuji watched his son disappear in the corridor, turned around suddenly, and said to the doorkeeper: "Go, go quickly, and quickly invite Dr. Liu, Sun's disciple,
Come, my son, you are so distraught and crazy!!”
…
The same thing happened in every corner of Chang'an City.
The Duke's Mansion of Ju State.
When Tang Guan returned home, Tang Jian was also shocked. The last time they met, Tang Jian clearly remembered that his youngest son had thin skin and tender flesh, was very weak, and was also picky about food. He would not eat this or that. But
This time I saw Tang Guan again. The dark-skinned young man in front of me had no trace of the original Tang Guan. Looking at him looking like a starving man, he looked like a descendant of the Kunlun slaves. How could he be so edible and so dark?
Woolen cloth?
Only when I smile, my white teeth look even whiter.
Before Tang Jian said anything, Sun felt a little embarrassed.
Li Mu is her son, and Tang Guan is her stepson. Although she prefers Li Mu in her heart, Tang Guan is Tang Jian's only youngest son left in the Duke's mansion after all. If there are rumors that her son abused Tang Jian's youngest son,
, it is harmful to her reputation, and it is even more harmful to Li Mu's reputation. Moreover, she and Tang Jian are husband and wife after all. If this kind of thing happens, it is easy for the husband and wife to become estranged.
Mrs. Sun broke off a chicken leg, put it in Tang Guan's bowl, and said apologetically: "Son, don't blame your brother, he... he just has that temper."
Tang Guan was shocked when he heard this and forgot to eat the chicken legs. He quickly said: "Mother must not say that. The principal is very good to me and to us all. We followed the principal and learned a lot of skills. Take me as an example.
Before entering the valley, I knew nothing except being able to write a few articles. But now, I dare not boast, at least I can still blacksmith, weave baskets, and do bricklaying. If my mother doesn’t believe it, I will find some bamboo strips later.
I can weave a big basket for you soon."
Sun: "..."
Tang Jian: "..."
Seeing the two people reacting like this, Tang Guan took a bite of the chicken leg and his eyes wavered: "I, did I say something wrong?"
Sun sighed: "Oh, I have to talk about Li Mu! Chuntao, go prepare the car!"
Tang Jian hurriedly stopped him, comforted Sun, and said to Tang Guan, "Son, your brother, does he teach you this?"
"No, no, no," Tang Guan quickly waved his hand to deny it, raised his hand to rub the oil on his mouth, and said, "Big brother has taught me a lot. Dad, have you heard of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?"
"Three, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms?" Tang Guan was stunned, thought for a long time, and said: "I have never heard of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but I have read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" several times. Why, he told you the history? It's not bad,
His Majesty once said that taking history as a guide can help us understand gains and losses."
"What! My eldest brother, no, the principal said that history books are bullshit. They are all stories written by future generations and cannot be taken seriously!"
"..."
Tang Jian was a gentle man, so he didn't know how to respond to these words, and it came from his own son's mouth.
He suppressed the urge to raise his hand and slap him, gritted his teeth and endured it, and asked: "He looks down on history books so much, so he must have some lofty opinions? This Romance of the Three Kingdoms must be his lofty theory. What did he say?"
"Dad, if you didn't mention it, I almost forgot!" Tang Guan suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "I have to quickly copy down the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" that my elder brother told me. If I don't write it quickly, I'm afraid I'll forget it!"
With that said, Tang Guan swallowed a bowl of rice into his mouth in two mouths, and the chicken drumsticks were all in one mouthful. He ran back to his study in a hurry, took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone and came back, saying to Tang Jian: "Dad, if you want to read
, I will write down one, and you will read one, and you will naturally be able to see the subtlety without my explaining it."
Tang Jian asked the maid to take away the leftovers, pointed to the table, and said, "Okay, you can write here. You write and I will read."
"Okay!" Tang Guan responded, spread out the rice paper, dipped it in thick ink, and wrote quickly; "The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away..."
Tang Jian only read one sentence, then put away his contemptuous look and became serious. Regardless of the article, this "poetry" alone showed his level of skill. Li Mu deserves to be Li Mu, and he dares to call himself the first poet of the Tang Dynasty.
The madman is indeed capable and talented.
Before Tang Guan entered the valley, he was an editor at Datang Daily, and he had already developed his writing speed. Once he got into the mood, his writing skills were as fast as flying. Tang Jian was watching from the side, and he fell into a trance without realizing it.
The three sworn brothers in Taoyuan, the three heroes fighting Lu Bu, the blood splattered in Fengyi Pavilion... each of the wonderful plots made Tang Jian dizzy, clapping his hands and saying that he was very satisfied! By the time Tang Guan stopped writing, it was already the end of the moon, when would the Sun family leave?
Yes, the father and son didn't notice when the maid lit the lamp.
At this time, there was already a thick pile of writing on the table. The plot happened to be about Guan Yunchang sealing the gold seal. It was one of the most exciting plots in the early stage of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". When Tang Jian saw the key point, Tang Guan stopped and couldn't help but
He said angrily: "Write it, what's next?"
Tang Guan flexed his wrist and said with a wry smile: "Dad, it's not that I didn't write it. My eldest brother just talked about it here. He said that the next paragraph is "passing five levels and killing six generals". It is extremely exciting. Because it is so exciting, I have to save it until
Let’s talk about it later in the year, I also want to know the plot behind it!”
"This..." Tang Jian was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. The good old man's temper couldn't get better at this time, and he said in a hateful voice: "You bastard Li Mu, you are stuck here, you can't go up or down, it's really annoying! Oh! It's really annoying!"
"
Tang Guan chuckled and said, "Dad, why don't you go find him and ask him which five levels and which six generals?"
"I..." Tang Jian was about to speak when he suddenly remembered Li Mu's temper. His so-called stepfather really didn't necessarily have face. He glared at Tang Guan angrily and said, "I want to ask you, I'm not interested in knowing."
.”
"Oh." Tang Guan nodded clearly and said, "Okay, then when I know the plot behind it, I don't have to tell dad that I know?"
"How dare you!"
"Dad still wants to know!"
"In no mood!"
…
Wang Pu's home.
When Wang learned that Wang Pu was back, he rushed over immediately. Wang Pu went to the Heaven and Earth to buy a table and had a drink with his elder brother whom he had not seen for many days.
Wang has been concerned about his playboy brother since he was a child. Wang Pu's temper and temperament are very clear to Wang. He didn't expect him to hide from him. He asked him to hang around Li Mu. He just wanted to use him to fight Li Mu.
It was just a matter of building a network of friendships. But when he saw Wang Pu this time, Wang’s mind changed. Because he could see the change in his younger brother. Even though the country is easy to change and the nature is hard to change, Wang Pu is still the same Wang Pu.
, but the aura in his words was like a different person. It was really different.
Should we be happy or worried?
Wang is an old man and he immediately thought of the pros and cons.
On the plus side, of course, the ineffective younger brother can finally make a difference.
On the downside, he was a little worried, what if Wang Pu had been with Li Mu for a long time and his thoughts had changed. He no longer put the Taiyuan Wang family first, but became Li Mu's pawn. This cannot be said to be completely bad.
But it is certainly not a good thing for the interests of the Wang family in Taiyuan.
However, Wang was very relieved to see that his brother had finally changed. At least when he saw his old father again in the afterlife, he could have something to explain.
Listening to Wang Pu's endless talk about things in the valley, Wang could also notice that although he was the oldest among the students and his physical strength was not as good as that of the young people, he had been working hard to catch up. This kind of ambition,
This is something Wang has never felt in Wang Pu.
Maybe he really likes life in the valley.
Wang was thinking this, and suddenly, another thought appeared in his mind.
