Building a literary palace is not easy!

Compared with the enlightenment of literary spirit, the process of cultivating literary spirit and building a literary palace seems a little more difficult.

Even Lu Henian, who had accumulated a lot of experience, only completed the construction of the Wen Palace after three days. Needless to say, other students were less knowledgeable than Lu Henian. Some spent seven or eight days less, and more spent more.

It lasted more than ten or twenty days, but fortunately no one stayed there for more than a month.

After the Wen Palace was successfully built, students began to learn how to write war poems, war words and war prose.

Unlike Xie Wenyuan's kind of instant success, the students' accumulation of literary spirit and knowledge was too weak. Even if they wrote war poems and war words, they could not immediately exert the effect of war poems and war words.

They also need to patiently learn war poems and the mysteries inside war poems: including understanding the underlying principles of poems, how to allocate literary style to match poems, and the operation of literary style when writing poems...

In short, war poems, war words and war writings, as literary means of protection, are not just completed by simple writing, but there are various skills that need to be learned.

As a result, the students' study time passed quietly and unknowingly.

The conversation was divided into two parts. After Xie Wenyuan and Chu Yunshen discussed the Wen Dao system, they took on the task of spreading Wen Dao.

After returning home, Xie Wenyuan cleaned up, ate, and tidied up his appearance. After that, he returned to the study and began to write what he had discussed with Chu Yunshen in the past few days.

With his strong memory, Xie Wenyuan recorded all the language content discussed in the past few days on paper, and then began to slowly review the content.

After a while, a servant came to report: "Sir, Mr. Su from the Su family in Yangcheng came to visit."

"Su Quanzhen is here?" Xie Wenyuan frowned, put down the paper in his hand, raised his head and said to the servant, "Invite people to the study!"

"Yes!" The servant took the order and retreated.

After a while, a gray-haired man walked in from outside the study. As soon as the man entered the study, he bowed his hands to Xie Wenyuan and saluted: "Student Quanzhen, here to pay homage to Mr. Xie!"

"No courtesy, no courtesy!" Xie Wenyuan smiled and waved his hand and said, "What kind of wind is it today? Has it brought you, a busy person, to my place?"

"Students don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything!" Su Quanzhen hesitated and said, "Mr. Xie, you also know that my useless little son wants to become an immortal, but his mother protects him tightly. I can't fight him.

I can’t hit him, I can’t scold him, I can’t do anything about it.”

Xie Wenyuan nodded. He had already heard about Su Quanzhen's younger son Su Lingqi: He had heard that he was very talented since he was a child, and his talents and learning were as good as those of his two elder brothers. He was already quite famous at a young age. He didn't know.

What happened to him? When he was eleven or twelve years old, he suddenly had the idea of ​​seeking Taoism and immortality. Because of this incident, he made a fuss.

However, the Su family in Yangcheng is a scholarly family with a heritage of more than 300 years. Generations of students are students. How can they accept their own son to enter Taoism and practice?

For this reason, father and son almost had a falling out because of this matter. Later, for some reason, Su Lingqi seemed to give up his desire to seek Taoism and visit immortals.

Now listening to Su Quanzhen's words, it seems that Su Lingqi has not completely given up his desire to seek immortality and visit Taoism.

"Me too, there's nothing I can do." Su Quanzhen said with a bitter smile, "My little boy is stubborn and stubborn. On the surface, he seems to have given up on seeking the Tao, but secretly he is reading Taoist scriptures secretly. However, that boy is very stubborn.

On the surface, my academic work has not fallen behind, so I can only turn a blind eye."

At this point, Su Quanzhen said with some embarrassment: "Of course, I still hope that he can put all his serious thoughts on the right path, so I want to find him a teacher to guide him back to the right path. I hope Mr. Xie can do it.

"

After listening to Su Quanzhen's story, Xie Wenyuan was silent for a long time.

Seeing Xie Wenyuan silent, Su Quanzhen's heart sank little by little.

"Originally, I am old and no longer want to open the gate." Xie Wenyuan seemed to have seen Su Quanzhen's thoughts and said slowly, "However, now that I have acquired a new knowledge, I need to teach it, so I asked you to come.

I’ll just listen to the class!”

I originally thought that Xie Wenyuan would not agree, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a turn of events. Su Quanzhen couldn't help but beam with joy: "In that case, thank you sir!"

With that said, Su Quanzhen stood up from his seat and bowed deeply to Xie Wenyuan.

Xie Wenyuan raised his hand slightly, and an invisible force lifted up Su Quanzhen, who was bowing and saluting: "No need to be polite!"

Feeling that he was being held up by an invisible force, Su Quanzhen stood up straight involuntarily. Su Quanzhen's pupils couldn't help but shrink, and then he seemed to understand something without showing any strange expression.

The two then discussed knowledge in the study for a while, and then Su Quanzhen said goodbye.

Xie Wenyuan did not persuade him to stay. After getting up and sending Su Quanzhen away, he returned to his desk and continued to review the words on the paper. For several days, Xie Wenyuan stayed in the study room, sorting out various detailed information about literary practice.

.

It wasn't until the fifth day that Su Quanzhen and his youngest son Su Lingqi came to visit again.

After paying their respects, Xie Wenyuan looked carefully at Su Quanzhen's youngest son.

The young man was well-mannered, slightly thin, and not very strong. He seemed to have some congenital deficiencies. Xie Wenyuan didn't care about this, and instead looked at the deeper things in the young man.

Under the dual blessing of Haoran's righteousness and literary spirit, Xie Wenyuan's eyes were able to see things that ordinary people could not see.

In his eyes, the young man in front of him had an aura of culture and elegance, which condensed into a beautiful canopy above his head.

Although the other party did not put most of his thoughts into studying the classics of various schools of thought, he could still condense the knowledge he had accumulated into such a beautiful canopy with just two or three minutes of thought, which is enough to show that the other party was talented in reading.

After seeing Su Lingqi's literary spirit, Xie Wenyuan felt confident.

"This son is extremely literate and looks like a canopy, which shows that he is talented and intelligent. If he can devote himself to studying knowledge, he will definitely be indispensable for a great Confucian scholar position in the future. However, it will take some chance to become a semi-saint!"

Xie Wenyuan was extremely happy to meet such a reading seed.

"Okay, this kid is full of talent and talent. He is a talent that can be made." Xie Wenyuan smiled and said to Su Quanzhen on the side, "I will accept this kid."

Hearing Xie Wenyuan's comments about his son, Su Quanzhen was overjoyed. However, Su Lingqi on the side looked calm and even frowned slightly, as if he had some concerns.

At this time, Su Quanzhen pulled his son and asked him to kowtow to Xie Wenyuan.

But Xie Wenyuan raised his hand to stop him: "Wait a minute, I think this kid's desire to seek immortality and visit Taoism has not been extinguished, so it is not suitable to become a disciple yet, so he should just be a spectator here for now!"

After hearing Xie Wenyuan's words, Su Quanzhen's face was full of disappointment, and then he felt a little resentful that iron could not become steel, and gave his son a fierce look.

Fortunately, Xie Wenyuan did not refuse Su Lingqi to attend, and there will always be opportunities to pay homage to him in the future.

"In that case, please ask your husband to take care of the dog!" Su Quanzhen took his son and bowed to Xie Wenyuan, then entrusted the young son to him.

Xie Wenyuan nodded: "Don't worry, this child is extremely talented. If he can abandon Taoism and return to Confucianism, I should do my best to teach him!"

After hearing Xie Wenyuan's promise, Su Quanzhen bowed deeply again.

In this way, Su Lingqi was left with Xie Wenyuan, and Su Quanzhen left Xie's house with his servants and returned to Yangcheng.

After arranging Su Lingqi's life affairs, Xie Wenyuan threw him a test paper the next day. Su Lingqi said nothing and began to answer the questions after getting the test paper.

After answering the questions, Xie Wenyuan would throw him a second test paper. After repeating this for four days, Su Lingqi had finished answering eight test papers.

Through these examination papers, Xie Wenyuan fully understood Su Lingqi's academic level.

On this day, Xie Wenyuan called Su Lingqi to the study. He looked at him with wise eyes and said, "Do you know why I called you here today?"

"I don't know!" Su Lingqi just shook his head obediently when asked.

"I have read your test papers." Xie Wenyuan clicked on the papers in front of him and said, "From all aspects, your academic foundation is very solid, and other scholars are not as good as you..."

Xie Wenyuan first praised Su Lingqi, and then pointed out several shortcomings of Su Lingqi.

Finally, he made a summary: "You have a solid foundation and immature writing style, but you already have unique insights. If you can get off the hook, I dare not say that you can win the case, but the top ten will not be a problem. With your talent, if you don't say that your official career is magnanimous, you will just get it.

It is not difficult for a Jinshi to come back after passing the imperial examination."

Having said this, Xie Wenyuan looked at Su Lingqi and asked: "Are you willing to tell me, an old man, why you abandon literature and seek Taoism?"
