There is no girl who does not love beauty. Today is the day when Liu Xin personally accompanies Zhu Rong back to her parents’ home. Zhu Rong got up early and groomed herself, changed into a bright red dress of a Han bride, and even applied rouge and gouache on her face. She
I have liked to wear red clothes since I was a child, so dressing up like this doesn't seem that out of the ordinary. I don't know where this gentleman made the mistake of asking such a question.
When the young scholar saw Zhu Rong lowering her head and looking around for a long time, still looking blank, he pointed at her hair and said, "This is what the young scholar is talking about."
Zhu Rong reached out and touched her bun. It took her half an hour to comb it over and over again to create the most standard beauty bun. Remembering that she had just seen her younger brother, she galloped excitedly and showed off her riding skills.
I couldn't help but asked nervously: "What's wrong with your hair? Is it messed up?"
The scholar said calmly: "It's not messy, but why does the girl wear her hair in a woman's bun?"
Liu Xin kept looking at the scholar and felt that he looked very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him. Listening to the conversation between the two of them, how could Liu Xin not guess that the scholar had such a little interest in Zhu Rong? Encountered
A man would lose his temper over this kind of thing, and Liu Xin is the same.
However, the scholar hadn't done anything rude for a while, and this was Zhu Rong's home. Liu Xin wanted to save some face for her, so she could only suppress her anger and sneered: "She doesn't want to save a wife."
A person’s bun should be a bun of some kind. Isn’t it possible to have a bun with a double bun like a maid?”
Zhu Ding secretly hated that this scholar came at the wrong time, but he couldn't get angry in front of Liu Xin, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "My lord, this is my son Zhu Jie's tutor. His surname is Shan and Fu. He is courteous and courteous.
He is quite talented, I hope..."
Liu Xin suddenly realized that no wonder he looked so familiar. It was him. He waved his hand and said, "Master Zhu, you have been fooled. His original name was Xu Fu, but now he has changed his name to Xu Shu. Shan Fu is just his pseudonym. Xu Shu, you are not here."
Yingchuan was studying hard, why did he come to Zangke?"
Reading the books of saints and sages will bring goods to the emperor's family. At that time, the purpose of most people's study was to become officials, and Xu Shu was no exception. But in the Han Dynasty, there was no such thing as the imperial examination. No matter how good the book was, no one would appreciate it.
In vain, so scholars have to try to make their own reputation. As long as your reputation spreads, people will naturally come to ask you to become an official. If you want to make a name for yourself, studying abroad is a good way. Therefore, consciously study and become successful.
Xu Shu then began his study tour.
Xu Shu traveled to many places during his study tour, and he had to admit that under Liu Xin's rule, the government was indeed well-connected and the people lived a happy and healthy life, which was beyond the reach of other places. However, Xu Shu was a person who believed in orthodoxy at heart, and for Liu Xin
He has always been dissatisfied with the fact that he did not recognize the legitimacy of Emperor Liu Xie's identity, and he also had some prejudice against Liu Xin. He always thought that he could find some problems in Liu Xin's jurisdiction. Since there are no problems where the Han people live
, then Xu Shu decided to take a look at the place where barbarians lived together, and Zangke, located in Nanzhong, naturally became his first choice.
In fact, Xu Shu also often reads Dahan Express, which also publishes many policies on the "Barbarian Family", but Xu Shu always looks at Liu Xin through colored glasses. He does not believe that Liu Xin can really implement such policies.
However, when they arrived at Zangke, Xu Shu was really surprised.
Today's Zangke is no longer what it used to be. There are medicinal materials, furs, mountain products, and minerals that are in short supply in other counties. In the past, due to various factors such as inconvenient transportation, oppression by Han officials, and the monopoly of Han merchants, the barbarian people kept them empty.
However, Baoshan has always lived a life of poverty. Now, not only have these problems been solved, but even the governor of Zangke is served by a barbarian. Naturally, the barbarian family is no longer an empty talk.
Xu Shu stayed in Zangke for two days and found that there was not much difference between this place and other cities under Liu Xin's rule. He thought of walking around the surrounding villages and could always find something wrong.
The nearest village to Zangke City is Daidaidong. In the past three years, the scale there has expanded a lot and it has become a decent town with inns, wine shops, markets, and brothels. It is as prosperous as
Xu Shu was dazzled and dumbfounded when he came to the county town from other places, and his opinion of Liu Xin could not help but be shaken.
The scenery of Caishi Cave is beautiful and it is a good place for studying. Xu Shu stayed here for more than half a year and was most satisfied with it, so he simply rented a quiet small courtyard to live here and reflected on what he had seen and heard these days.
Recording and sorting. Although he didn't bring much money, he didn't have any difficulties here in Daidaidong. Because of the development of Daidaidong in recent years, many barbarians have become rich and are eager to let their children learn Chinese, so they opened a
He went to several schools, and when Xu Shu had no money, he also worked as a guest teacher for a few days, and he lived a happy life.
Xu Shu was a man of real talent and learning. He was knowledgeable and elegant in conversation. He soon gained a reputation in the area and became a hot topic that various schools competed to hire. However, Xu Shu came to teach just to earn a few bucks.
He spent a lot of money, but he never thought about making a fortune in this field. He would only teach for a few days at a time. After saving a little money, he would go out of business at home and concentrate on sorting out what he had learned along the way. When the money ran out, he would go out and find random things.
The school is open for a few days. Xu Shu is a good and ambitious young man. Although he was influenced by the scholars in the north and disliked Liu Xin, he never dared to despise the policies implemented by Liu Xin. He wanted to put these policies into practice.
Policy research, thorough understanding, and transformation into his own thoughts to serve the rightful owner in his mind in the future.
More than a month passed like this. Xu Shu saw that his money bag was gradually bottoming out. He was thinking about whether to go out to teach for two more days. Suddenly there was a rapid knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw two sturdy men.
A group of barbarian men stood outside. One of them raised his hands and said, "Are you Mr. Shan?"
Xu Shu has been using the pseudonym Shan Fu these days, so these two barbarians came to see Mr. Shan.
Xu Shu knew that under Liu Xin's rule, few people dared to act recklessly. Although these two barbarian men were both tall and rough, Xu Shu was not afraid. He cupped his hands and said, "I am Shan Fu. I don't know what you two want to do with me."
?”
The barbarian man suddenly smiled with a smile on his face, saluted repeatedly, and said: "So you are Mr. Shan, you are disrespectful and disrespectful. The two of us have been ordered by the master to invite Mr. Shan to visit the house."
Xu Shu didn't like this kind of life where people were welcomed and sent off. He waved his hand and said, "Please tell your master that Shan has something to do, so he won't come to bother you. Please go back."
The man smiled and said: "My master said that your husband will go to the academy to earn a living every few days. Today, it seems that he is going to the academy again. My master has no ill intentions, he just wants to make a living for the children."
Master, I will bow to you, and I will thank you very much. I hope you will not refuse."
Xu Shu was not a person who didn't know how to adapt. In his eyes, teaching a group of students was still teaching, and teaching one student was still teaching, and it was just to make money for a few days, so he readily agreed and followed the two men.
These two men were sent by Zhu Ding. Although Zhu Ding became the governor of Zangke, he was still the patriarch of the Zhu family, so he spent most of his time in bringing Dong to handle affairs. A talented teacher came from the local area.
Of course, Mr. Zhu Ding couldn't hide it from his eyes and ears, and his youngest son Zhu Jie was at the age of studying. Zhu Ding paid attention and sent someone to quietly inquire about it. He found that this gentleman really had extraordinary common sense, so he took the initiative to invite him to his home.
thought.
Xu Shu didn't ask who his boss was at first. When he entered the door, he knew that it was Zhu Ding, the prefect of Zangke, who was inviting him. He was neither humble nor overbearing, so he saluted Zhu Ding in the hall and said, "Master Qi,
You also know that the common people have a habit of teaching for only three to five days at a time, as long as they can earn enough money to travel. Therefore, the common people want to make an agreement with the adults first. This time, the teaching of Master Ling will be limited to three days. I hope you don’t blame me.
."
Zhu Ding was able to lead the largest tribe of barbarians, and he was not a simple person. He wholeheartedly agreed to Xu Shu's request. He entertained Xu Shu with good wine and meat every day, and stayed with him when he had free time. For three days in a row, they all
In this way, Xu Shu accepted it calmly.
Until the evening of the third day, Xu Shu finished teaching the day's lessons, picked up his own baggage, came to the front hall, and asked Zhu Ding to resign.
It was only then that the wily Zhu Ding tried to persuade him to stay, saying: "Under the guidance of Mr. Shan in the past few days, the child has made rapid progress, and he is about to continue to listen to Mr. Shan's teachings. I hope Mr. Shan can take Zhu Ding's consideration into account."
Come on, please stay a few more days, I wish you would never dare to mistreat your husband."
In fact, Xu Shu had already seen his intention and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness. Although this place is good, it is not a place to stay for a long time. Shan has a long-term ambition and will leave sooner or later. Even if he stays for a few more days, what's the point?"
beneficial?"
Before he finished speaking, he heard a woman scolding: "Humph, you have such a loud tone. You clearly don't take our place seriously. Dad, what do you ask of a man who has such high eyesight?"
,Ajie is still worried about not having a teacher to teach him?"
When Xu Shu heard the sound, he looked over and his eyes suddenly lit up. He saw a pretty woman in red walking in from the outside with a dusty face, and asked hurriedly: "May I ask who this girl is..."
Zhu Ding saw it and suddenly had an idea. He said with a smile: "This is my little girl Zhu Rong. She talks nonsense and makes the gentleman laugh."
After that alliance, Zhu Rong and Liu Xin made a three-year bet. Seeing that the female companions around him got married one by one and had children, she was left alone and bored, so she took pleasure in hunting all day long.
.three days ago she
He went out hunting again, and came back with a bow and an arrow on his back. He looked dashing and heroic, with a wild temperament that could never be seen in a daughter of the Han family. Xu Shu felt that the air was frozen. For a moment, Xu Shu felt that the air was frozen.
Silent.
Seeing that the scholar was staring at him, Zhu Rong thought he was rude, so he let out a "hum" and turned to the back.
Zhu Dingruo glanced at his daughter's back meaningfully, turned to Xu Shu and said, "How about it, Mr. Shan, do you want to stop thinking about it?"
Xu Shu's eyes seemed to be stuck on Zhu Rong, until she completely disappeared from his sight, then he reluctantly turned around and said flatly: "Don't think about it!"
