Liu Ci, who was immersed in the praise of his nephew, was suddenly interrupted by this person. He felt unhappy and didn't even get up. He shouted to the door: "No! You are in the wrong place. This is the Ewe School."

!」

Gongsun Hong's face darkened, and he didn't feel like saying anything. He quickly stood up and walked quickly to the door.

Outside the door, stood a wealthy middle-aged man and a half-year-old child.

This middle-aged man looked polite and well-mannered. He was wearing Confucian clothes. He was not very tall but had an elegant face. When he saw someone coming out, he hurriedly bowed to greet him. Gongsun Hong returned the greeting.

The child standing next to him looked very thin, his eyes were timid, dull, and not very smart. At this moment, he was also standing stupidly next to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man gave him a hard push.

Only then did he react and hurriedly bowed to Gongsun Hongxing.

"This is the Gongyang School. I wonder if you have any advice?"

Gongsun Hong asked. Liu Ci also walked out at some point. When he saw someone of his own age, he was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at the silly boy.

"I came here specifically to visit Mr. Gongyang Shou. I wonder if he is at home?"

"He went out in the morning and is not here yet. Please come in and wait."

When he learned that Gong Yangshou was not here, the man shook his head hastily and said, "I don't dare to go in and bother myself. Since the old gentleman is not here, let's just wait here for his return."

Gongsun Hong invited him several times, but the man didn't dare to go in. Gongsun Hong had no choice but to take Liu Ci back to the house. Liu Ci asked with some confusion: "This man is really strange. Why doesn't he want to come in?"

"This is to show my respect for the ancestor.

"His ancestor was also Gong Yangshou?

"No...sigh...Uncle, let's continue studying."

Gongsun Hong did teach Liu Ci a lot during this period. Although this Shuzi had an extremely naughty character, he was still smart. After Gongsunhong's explanation, he was able to understand a lot of things. What's rare is that this Shuzi

He also has his own ideas and does not memorize Gongsun Hong's teachings by rote. He is very good at turning other people's things into his own. In this regard, he is quite like his father's style.

Gongsun Hong doesn't hate him. Although this guy is a little arrogant, he is very affectionate and has a strong affinity. He never insists on his own identity. He can have a good relationship with anyone, no matter what the other person's identity is.

He is also a kind father. Although he is young, Liu An's friends are also happy to take him to play.

Gongsun Hong continued to use pig raising as an example to explain the situation in the world.

Gongsun Hong did not base his knowledge on theories and books. He mainly explained the current situation to Liu Ci, including the situation of the entire Han Dynasty, the situation of temples, the formulation of various policies, etc., which was regarded as directly teaching him how to govern the world.

, Liu Ci also followed suit. Under the guidance of Gongsun Hong, this guy really had a lot of understanding of the situation in the world and even the situation in various places. He could even tell that Wu and the others were governing the country.

Gains and losses.

The middle-aged people outside listened to the sounds coming from inside, and their faces became more and more happy.

But the child didn't react at all. He lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. He looked stupid, but he looked a bit like Xiao Yan when he was young.

The middle-aged man looked down at the child again and sighed.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, someone hurriedly came here. The middle-aged man hurriedly stepped forward to pay homage, "Who are you, Gongyang Gong? I have heard of your virtuous reputation for a long time..."

"You have made a mistake. I am Hu Wusheng, and you are talking about my teacher."

"Ah, it turns out to be Mr. Hu."

Hu Wusheng's reputation is not lower than Gong Yangshou's, and even exceeds it by a lot. This is mainly because there are newspapers now, and Hu Wusheng's articles are frequent readers of newspapers. His articles are often used by other Confucian schools.

To quote, although other schools of thought do not like Gongyang, they have no ill intentions towards Hu Wusheng. They all think that this is a white lotus born in the mud. He is pure and pure. If he had not worshiped the wrong teacher and gone astray, he would actually be a sage.

Fuqiu Bo once commented on him and said that his knowledge in the future would definitely surpass his own.

But Hu Wusheng didn’t take these words seriously.

, if there were no teachers at the beginning, he would still be a poor young man who could not even afford to go to school.

Probably because of his poor background, he took the initiative to accept students like Gongsun Hong. In Gongsun Hong, Hu Wusheng could see the epitome of himself.

Hu Wusheng led the two of them into the courtyard, and asked Gongsun Hong to get tea. The two sat down to chat. The middle-aged man first flattered Hu Wusheng for a while, and then told him the reason for his visit.

"I am from Guangchuan, my surname is Dong, and this is my son, my name is Zhongshu."

Hu Wusheng glanced at the child and then nodded.

The middle-aged man pursed his lips and then said: "That's right, I've heard of your reputation for a long time. My child also likes reading and good writing. I brought him here specially this time to make him worship.

Under your sect, become your disciple..."

Hu Wusheng said hurriedly: "My teacher is still there. If you are willing, you can wait for my teacher. He will definitely be willing to accept good disciples."

Hu Wusheng did not agree. In fact, he did not want to accept a disciple. His subordinate Gongsun Hong only reminded him of himself because of Gongsun Hong's life experience. He himself was already very busy at the moment. He was in charge of the entire school, so he

I really don’t have the energy to teach **, for fear of delaying others.

"Then I'll just wait for Mr. Gongyang."

This middle-aged man seemed to have read a lot of books. Although his title was not high, he was very knowledgeable about etiquette. After seeing that Hu Wusheng was unwilling to accept a disciple, he did not keep an eye on him.

Hu Wusheng waited with him, while the middle-aged man looked at his son and whispered: "I will see the teacher later, you have to be smart, got it?"

The child's eyes were still dull. After a moment, he turned around and asked, "What?"

The middle-aged man sighed again, with some disappointment in his eyes.

After more than an hour, Gong Yangshou, an old drunkard, staggered into the courtyard. Hu Wusheng hurriedly stepped forward and smelled the smell of alcohol on his body. He frowned and asked displeasedly: "

Why did you go out to drink wine so early in the morning? This is not in line with etiquette. How unbecoming are you to drink wine every day..."

"How can etiquette be established for people like me?"

Gongyang Shou said with a smile: "That is used to restrict a gentleman like you. For a person like me, only the law can restrict it."

Hu Wusheng hurriedly told him about his apprenticeship. Gongyang Shou looked at the father and son with some suspicion, "You came to me to study? You came all the way from Guangchuan to study with me? When did I have this

Such fame?"

The man smiled and replied: "Your reputation is well known in Guangchuan. Women and children all know your name, let alone those of us who have read a little bit."

Gong Yang was overjoyed and waved to the child, asking him to come to him and touch his head, "What's your name?"

"Dong Zhongshu."

"Will you be my disciple?"

The child glanced at his father, and then said with some fear: "I do.

Gong Yangshou simply said, "Okay, then come and study with me!"

The middle-aged man was overjoyed. He had never thought that this Confucian master would be so easy to talk to and would be willing to accept his child just after meeting him once. He thanked the child again and again, gave many instructions to the child, and then asked about the things used to become a disciple.

After knowing that this sect did not require any apprenticeship ceremony, he was even happier, as if he felt that he had come to the right place. After thanking Gong Yangshou again and again, he finally left here, and the child stood in the courtyard with some restraint, also

He didn't dare to speak, he just looked around fearfully.

Liu Ci came over and said, "Your accent is so strange, can you teach me?"

"ah??"

"Can…"

"Why did your father leave you and run away? Are you his biological child?"

"Maybe..."

"should??"

Liu Ci was stunned and looked at him again. After the two chatted for a while, Liu Ci knew that this guy was several years older than him, mainly because he looked a little too thin and too young.

"I love so much

My father was very happy about studying at first, but later he objected to my studying."

"When did I start to oppose your study?

"It probably started when I walked up the mountain while reading a book and got lost in the mountain..."

"Then I know why your father is against you, just keep talking!"

"My father built a rockery in the courtyard to let me play. But I didn't like playing, so I took my collection of books and read in the courtyard. My sister really likes reading and goes to the rockery every day..."

Liu Ci took a look at the guy in front of him, looking at his regular facial features and fair skin, and couldn't help but ask: "How old is your sister? Is she your biological sister?"

"She's my sister...one year older than me."

"Hahaha, good brother, come on, come on, sit down and say, you like reading, how wonderful this is, your father shouldn't have stopped you, just keep talking..."

"Later, my mother didn't allow me to study. They closed the library, so I borrowed books from everywhere to read. I read every day. My father and mother became more and more worried. Finally, I heard that the Gongyang School had no books...

They sent me here."

Liu Ci suddenly realized, "Good guy, that's it. Why is your father in such a hurry? Your father also worked hard for you and walked so far..."

Dong Zhongshu nodded and then asked: "Do you have any books here?"

"No...we don't have any books here, but there are a lot of books where I live. What kind of books do you want?"

"Anything can be used, astronomy, geography, yin and yang, Huang Lao... I don't choose, as long as there are books."

This seemingly stupid child is a serious bookworm. Liu Ci has never seen such a person before. His addiction to books is simply more outrageous than his elder brother. He thought that his elder brother was already a nerd.

He is the person who loves reading the most in the world. He didn’t expect that there is someone here who is far better than his elder brother. As long as this guy throws a book to him, he can see the world grow old. Liu Ci feels that this is not a hobby, it is already a disease.
