Be a master through ancient times

Chapter 64 The Bird of Fright



"Haha, it's really refreshing to get rid of villains!" Zhou Chengyuan held up a glass of water and clinked glasses with others with a smile on his face.

He was really disgusting, the roommate who was originally in the same dorm was secretly watching his every move, and now thinking about it, it was a little creepy.

"That's right, thanks to Brother Chen and Brother Chu who took a step forward and filed a record with the head of the mountain, otherwise they would have suffered from being dumb for nothing." Jiang Huai said.

"However, do you really think that Master Xu Jian was responsible for this? I heard that the head of the mountain has already edited a book and sent it to Mr. Ti Xue. He should really be dismissed as a scholar this time." Luo Yingshu said.

"Brother Luo and I think the same way. Xu Jian seems to be quite reserved on weekdays and doesn't talk too much. Why did he suddenly target Brother Chu and everyone? Besides, I think that when the incident happened in the morning, Qi Xu suddenly What he said was really suspicious." Dong Qicai also said.

"Then what is Qi Xu's background? Why do I find that many students listen to him?" Zhang Wenhai asked. He often saw a group of people clustered around Qi Xu, holding him like stars.

"If it wasn't for his suspicious behavior today, I wouldn't have thought that he was this kind of person." Jiang Huai said with a complicated expression, "He and I should be regarded as classmates from the beginning, whether it is in Mengtong Hall, Tongzixue, or the current rural examination. Ben, his performance has always been very admirable, as the saying goes, a gentleman is as gentle as jade, and he is probably the one who is talking about."

"Hey, just like him, he is worthy of these two words? Brother Chu is the real gentleman!" Zhang Wenhai has a pair of mother's eyes, and he sees that Chu Ci is good in everything.

"I also admit that Brother Chu is indeed a gentleman now. But, how did you say it before? Although Brother Chu and I are in the same class, except for seeing that Brother Chu is at the top of the list every time we get results, other times it seems I don’t have a deep memory. But it shouldn’t be, a character like Brother Chu will make others look twice no matter where he is?” Jiang Huai doubted his own memory, is he blind or what?

Seeing that the topic was developing in this direction, Chu Ci couldn't help coughing lightly to attract everyone's attention, and then said: "Since the matter is over, don't think about him for now. Today is the second time we have opened a club, so let's make an appointment first." topic."

Zhang Wenhai hurriedly said: "I will decide, I will decide!"

Chen Zifang and Fang Jinyang looked at each other and smiled, they both seemed to understand why he did this.After the results came out yesterday, he confessed the borrowed model document, and put a few snacks from home on the bottom, thinking that if it smells good, he will order it.

"I flipped through that book yesterday, and I happened to see another big topic, which is still fresh in my memory, shall we do that one?"

Everyone laughed, Chuci looked at Zhang Wenhai, and suddenly said, "Kuozhi's move reminds me of a little story."

"What story? Brother Chu, why don't you share it with everyone?"

"Haha, then I'll tell you. In the Song Dynasty, there were plowers, and there were plants in the field. The rabbit walked away and touched the plant, and died with a broken neck..." Chuci repeated the story of waiting for the rabbit.

"Hahahaha, this man from Song Dynasty is too funny, he is too stupid to wait by the tree every day, hahaha." Zhang Wenhai smiled softly, and couldn't restrain himself.

Others also laughed, but they all looked at Zhang Wenhai and laughed.After a while, Zhang Wenhai suddenly came to his senses, and complained: "Brother Chu, you are too bad, you actually made up a story to laugh at me."

"This is not my nonsense. This story comes from "Han Feizi. Five Beetles". Why, haven't you heard it before?" This time it was Chu Ci's turn to be surprised. This story has been heard by even kindergarten children in modern times. Haven't they heard of it?

"You have already read Han Fei?" Others were more surprised than Chuci. Han Feizi is obviously not a compulsory reading in the imperial examination, nor is it highly praised by people today. Even if they want to expand, they mostly read other people book of.

Chu Ci sighed, Han Feizi is a master of law, and the first emperor still liked Han Fei very much.Moreover, his book contains some imperial power tactics, which is almost a must-read book for future emperors.But the more it develops, the more the idea of ​​ruling the world with benevolence and filial piety spreads, and the idea of ​​ruling the world with law becomes even more unpopular.Moreover, it is estimated that the emperors do not want others to look at Han Feizi more, to speculate on the emperor's mind, right?

……

"Sir, how is your disciple doing with this article?"

"It's just mediocre!" Master Qin read and read Chu Ci's article, but he was arrogant and refused to praise him.

Seeing Chu Ci pretending to be disappointed, he said again: "But it's not without benefits. I thought you spent all your time on curing the Spring and Autumn Period."

As soon as Chuci mentioned the matter of revising the scriptures, he felt guilty, so he immediately changed the subject. "Sir, do you know about Qi Xu's family situation?"

"It's fine, why do you want to probe into someone's privacy?"

"Isn't this about knowing yourself and the enemy, and never ending a hundred battles? My disciple thinks that Qi Xu seems to have a bad feeling for me, so I have to be on guard." Chu Ci will not lie in front of Master Qin, if it is said who is the most trustworthy in the county school If there are more people, then Master Qin will definitely do his part to rank first.

"Well, I'm also to blame for this." Master Qin was a little embarrassed.

Chu Ci is unclear, so, could it be that this Qi Xu is someone from Mr. Qin's family?That would be too bad, he was still thinking about attacking first.

"After I resigned, I went back to Yuanshan County and became a teacher of the county school. Because I still have a little reputation outside, there are not many people who want to worship me as a teacher. Qi Xu is one of them. "At this time, Master Qin gave Chu Ci a look, telling him to cherish it.

"His family is in Changhe Town, which is the largest town in Yuanshan County other than the county seat, and intersects with Hutian County next to it. Qi Xu's grandfather is a well-known local gentry, most of the land in Changhe Town, It should be under his hands. Most of the people leased the Qi family's land to cultivate. Qi Xu's father failed in literature, and later changed to martial arts. County lieutenant."

The county lieutenant is equivalent to the director of the modern public security organ. In ancient times, as the fourth in command in the county, it was enough to cover the sky with one hand.Unexpectedly, this Qi Xu is both a yamen and a rich third generation.

"At that time, his family entrusted someone to invite him. I couldn't refuse that person, so I had to go to the banquet. During the banquet, Qi Xu's performance was remarkable, and he was so mature and sophisticated that he didn't look like a child of twelve or thirteen years old. , Mr. Qi also valued him the most, so he asked him to worship me as his teacher."

"You also know that I am teaching the Book of Songs. Although Qi Xu is very good, I always feel that he is not suitable for teaching the Book of Songs, and he might mislead his disciples, so I politely declined, saying that I have no plans to accept apprentices for the time being. I will meet up with my friends later. , I found you in Qishan Academy. After taking the school exam, I found that you are simple-minded, and you are a good young man who studies the Book of Songs. In order to pass on what I have learned, I don't care about face, so I accept you as a disciple and attract the county school. Unexpectedly, In the end, I still looked away."

Chu Ci sneered, thinking to himself, no wonder this Qi Xu has been targeting the original owner from the beginning, making things difficult for him all the time.

"His behavior was a bit weird yesterday, and he seemed to be covering up something. But that Xu Jian has already pleaded guilty, and the rest will be left to Master Tixue to judge."

Chu Ci nodded.

It seems that Qi Xu's family is not simple, and the relationship above is intricate, and there must be more than just surfaced.

However, he couldn't tolerate him anymore, so he had to find a way to drive him out of the county school.As the saying goes, only a thousand days can harm others, how can a thousand days prevent others?Guarding against possible harm every day, people will be forced to be frightened.

That person's methods became more and more intense every time, what if one day he bribed a desperado and took his life unknowingly?Rescue methods in this era are not as developed as modern ones, and one mistake will be in vain.

What can I do?

Chu Ci thought for a while, don't bother Mr. with such conspiracies, let's go and see what advice the old man can give him.
