Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

Chapter 26 Invitation, Country Boy!

Cai Guogong Mansion in Chang'an
Du Ruhui's complexion was a little ugly. As the saying goes, curiosity kills people, and his situation seems to be similar.

If he had taken a step earlier yesterday, he would not be in such an embarrassing appearance now. Many students in Chang'an have already used him as an example.

"Even Cai Guogong didn't answer the first question, and it's normal if he didn't answer it himself."

Especially words like this made Du Ruhui feel hot on his face, and he couldn't hold his head up.

"My lord, an invitation has been sent from Anxuan's mansion."

A middle-aged butler rushed in and said at the same time, with a hint of joy in his words.

You must know that as a housekeeper, you need to be active inside and outside, and you are the most well-informed about Chang'an affairs, and you also know your master's troubles.

Now Duke Anxuan's invitation card can surprise the master, you must know that Duke Anxuan has never invited anyone.

"What, teacher's invitation?!"

Du Ruhui said with a trace of surprise on his face, needless to say the excitement in his words.

After the words fell, Du Ruhui stepped forward a few steps, looking at the invitation card with an expression on his face, he would not admit the mistake of this font.

"Please come to Keming's residence for a while."

It was a short sentence, but it sounded like the sound of nature to Du Ruhui, without any hesitation, he got into the carriage through the back door.

At the same time, outside the gate of Chang'an City, a young man looked at the city where the gunpowder smoke seemed to have never passed away, showing a trace of longing on his face.

"Is this Chang'an?"

The young man whispered, he was originally from a family of small landlords, but because of the war, the family was ruined and the little wealth that was once vanished.

But after all, it is a young man's heart, wanting to use his own efforts to revive the lintel, so he left his family and traveled all the way to seek famous teachers.

But he was not born in a famous family, and his family was in the middle of nowhere. Although he searched for local celebrities every time he went, he was turned away before he met them.

Along the way, the young mind has been sharpened and matured, and Chang'an is his last stop.

"If you can't visit famous teachers again this time, then use the remaining money to buy a few books and go back to your hometown to study hard."

A flash of determination flashed in the boy's eyes and he said, with a hint of disappointment in his words, even if he was not much troubled, this was in exchange for his mother's current situation of selling some family property against all opinions.

According to the usual habit, the boy found a small restaurant in Chang'an, ordered a bowl of clear soup noodles, saw that the prices were slightly uniform, and then couldn't help calling the waiter in the shop to start asking.

"Xiaoer, I don't know who are the celebrities in Chang'an City?"

The young man asked with a trace of expectation in his eyes. After all, Chang'an is the most prosperous place, and there must be many celebrities.

"You are asking the right person. There is nothing in Chang'an that I don't know about."

"However, His Majesty cherishes talents nowadays, and basically famous people have entered the Imperial Academy."

The waiter in the shop seemed to be very excited because he met a scholar from other places. After all, the scholar in Chang'an was so polite to him, so he opened his mouth and talked endlessly.

It's just that what the waiter didn't notice was that the boy's eyes were slightly dimmed, because he had an official position.

It's very likely that like before, I'm afraid I won't even see anyone, but the young man probably has an understanding of Chang'an celebrities.

"Of course, the last thing I want to talk about is Duke Anxuan. Duke Anxuan didn't enter the Imperial Academy, nor does he hold any official position."

When the waiter in the shop said this, the boy's eyes lit up slightly, as if this Duke Anxuan had a lot of hope here.

"Xiaoer, can you tell me about Duke Anxuan?"

The boy couldn't help but said, but after the words fell, only Xiao Er's eyes were greeted.

"You don't even know Duke Anxuan, who is famous all over the world, do you?!"

The shop waiter seemed a little surprised and said, even with a hint of contempt in his words, even he knew about An Xuangong's influence among scholars, but this scholar-like young man in front of him didn't know it.

"Should I know him?"

The boy said with some doubts, but he kept muttering in his heart, as if he had heard of this name before, but he didn't care.

"Do you know the two things that caused a sensation in Chang'an recently?"

The shop clerk couldn't help saying with a sense of superiority on his face, and there seemed to be a hint of mystery in his words.

"whats the matter?!"

The boy also said with a hint of curiosity in his eyes, what does this have to do with the Duke Anxuan mentioned earlier.

"The first thing is the inscription Lingyan Pavilion by Duke Anxuan. The poem moves Chang'an. Our shopkeeper also copied a copy and hung it there."

The shop clerk pointed to a pair of words on the wall in the middle of the lobby and couldn't help saying, but the young man was stunned.

Just now because of the long journey, he was a little tired, so he didn't notice that there was still a word hanging here.

"Why don't men wear Wu hooks!"

Just after reading the first sentence, the young man fell in love with this poem. After reading the entire poem, even he felt a sense of enthusiasm, sweeping away his previous fatigue.

"The second thing is that Chang'an Wu Mathematics came to ask for words. It is said that when An Xuangong wrote this poem, the words were in a style of his own. His Majesty can't put it down, and many ministers are worried about it."

"However, even though Mr. Anxuan is highly respected, facing so many people asking for words, he can't help but feel a little helpless, so he set up ten Shumen questions. No matter who it is, after answering ten questions in a row, they will be able to get an interview."

The waiter in the shop said with a bright face, as if he had experienced it himself, and his voice was even more ups and downs.

The boy's eyes flickered. It turns out that there are such great sages in this world. It would be great if he could be worshiped as a teacher.

In the Shu residence, Shu An and Du Ruhui were sitting opposite each other, but at this moment there was a hint of a smile on Shu An's face.

"Keming, seeing your complexion doesn't affect you?"

Shu An's voice sounded slowly, and there seemed to be a hint of ridicule in the words.

"Teacher, stop mocking me."

On Du Ruhui's face, he said with a wry smile, no one in the world can escape the words of fame, fortune and wealth.

Even he is no exception. This reputation has been ruined a lot, but this incident can't be blamed on others, it can be regarded as an innocent disaster.

"It's also good to relax occasionally. When it's time for dinner, let's have a meal together."

Shu An said with a slight smile, to be honest, he has a pretty good sense of the student who was delivered to the door halfway.

You need to know how many people have listened to his lectures, but how many people can firmly believe that they want to worship him as a teacher, not to mention that Du Ruhui is not one of those impulsive youths, but an important minister in the court.
