Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

Chapter 948

If you're not sure, then have someone investigate.

Anyway, their itinerary has not yet arrived in Jiangnan, so they naturally have enough time to confirm.

This matter was not brought up again.

However, Shu Bei naturally heard the words of the two of them.

Shu Bei's eyes could not help showing a trace of longing for An Nan.

This is normal for teenagers, because now Annan has become a place where people make contributions.

Shu Bei became more and more determined about his line on the battlefield.

Naturally, they paid attention to Annan, especially Xue Rengui, who was his role model.

Then it goes without saying!

Many younger generations became famous in Annan.

Shu Bei also hoped that one day he could be like this.

Jiangnan Water Town
When I came to this piece of land, I felt relatively deserted.

There was no way around it. Shu An remembered that the development of the South would not be completed until the Song Dynasty at least.

At that time, the South was able to become an economic center.

But now the south is still in a weak position, and you will never see the future generations of Ming Dynasty.

Because all the southerners passed the imperial examinations, but no one from the northerners got on the list, the result was the result.

The south is still not stronger than the north. After all, the concept of fighting for hegemony in the Central Plains has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Before that, no South has ever been able to counterattack the North.

So it feels quite empty, but the interesting thing is that Shu An, who just arrived in the Jiangnan area, heard an interesting piece of news.

"Northern scholars collectively fight southern scholars in the south."

"It is said that these scholars from the north came to pursue Duke Anxuan."

"But being ridiculed by scholars in the south, they started fighting."

A voice full of discussions made Shu An even more helpless.

This can be regarded as self-induced, but the end result is the fighting between scholars from the north and the south.

But it's normal to think about it. After all, the conflict between scholars in the north and south has not always existed.

This is a matter of regional differences. Their own families and common people do not like each other.

In the end, the scholars also disliked each other!
And the South didn't know that it was because of the beautiful mountains and rivers, so it gradually gained the upper hand in the imperial examination.

At the beginning of the imperial examination, the north had some advantages.

But it was quickly reversed by the South, which undoubtedly led to more contradictions.

Even if Shu An faced such a contradiction, he still had no opinion.

In addition to this period of time, Shu An has disappeared for a while.

Then naturally, the dispute between the scholars in the north and the south started again and became the focus of attention.

"Looks like we'll get a good tour of the South."

Shu An said with a smile.

"Hopefully they don't compete too much."

"During the autumn period in previous years, there were quite a few fights between scholars from the north and the south."

Li Xiuning also showed a lot of smiles and said out loud.

Obviously, he knew a lot about the excitement in Chang'an before.

"Young man, always have some blood."

"As long as it doesn't go too far, it's fine."

Shu An's voice continued to sound, and there was not much objection to this matter.

After all, there is pressure when there is competition. If there is no competition, there is no motivation for progress.

Undoubtedly, this period of time was the most relaxing time for Shu An and others to travel.

Because of the competition between scholars in the north and south, the trouble became more and more serious.

Originally, some northern scholars were not planning to go to the south, but they all rushed to the north.

Based on the base number, there must be more scholars in the north than in the south.

After all, the Central Plains is the place where the most aristocratic families gather, and there are many Confucian inheritances of Confucius.

The inheritance is relatively complete!

Naturally, it is reasonable to have more scholars.

After traveling to many famous cities, Shu An brought Li Xiuning to a village.

"This is the place where I used to live in seclusion."

Shu An said slowly, this season is already autumn.

But the south is still emerald green, which can be said to be a unique scenery in the south.

“This place is really nice!”

"It's even comparable to Chang'an's farm. Didn't you want to go back to Chang'an back then?"

Li Xiuning observed the surrounding environment and couldn't help saying quietly.

"That's not true. Speaking of living here, it's a coincidence."

"I still have a house in the village, I don't know if it's still there."

Shu An said with a smile on his face, the environment is only one reason.

Li Xiuning couldn't help showing a hint of curiosity in his eyes, but he didn't ask questions immediately.

Because if Shu An wanted to say it, he would definitely say it.

And maybe the answer is not necessarily in this village.

However, as Shu An walked into the village, some villagers seemed to recognize Shu An one after another.

"Are you Uncle Shu?!"

"That's right, it's the old man. I just came back to take a look."

"Uncle Shu, I didn't expect that after so many years, you still haven't changed much."

Because of Shu An's appearance, there is actually not much change from when he entered and left Chang'an.

Naturally, is there any difference from when I first left here?

Originally, some young and middle-aged people naturally recognized Shu An.

At the beginning, Shu An subsidized a lot of things for the villagers.

For these villagers, this Uncle Shu is a good man.

Naturally it was impressive!

Shu An had waited a lot of copper coins before.

One person distributed some to the people in the village, although not much.

Maybe you can buy two or three taels of meat, but it still makes the villagers happy.

Because the south is still relatively small under the care of An Xuangong, it is not as exaggerated as the north.

So Shu An would not be recognized in the village.

After all, this village is somewhat remote.

Soon Shu An arrived at the place where he lived at the beginning.

"Master, you are finally back!"

An old man said with excitement, as if he couldn't believe it.

This old man's name is Ma Lou, and he was a middle-aged man 20 years ago.

Shu An came here because he was rescued by Shu An in an accident.

Ma Lou was injured because of falling off a cliff, and there is no doctor in the village.

Fortunately, Ma Lou was lucky to meet Shu An and others, but this also caused Shu An to live for a while.

Later, when I came back from Bashu, I just thought of settling down in the south of the Yangtze River.

So I'm back here!

In order to repay Shu An for saving his life, Ma Lou, an honest commoner, started running errands for Shu An.

Until Shu'an returns to Chang'an!
Shu An gave Ma Lou a sum of money to retire in his hometown.

After all, Shu An is not a heartless person, but he is very generous to those close to him.

Even if Ma Lou wanted to repay his kindness before, Shu Anke never thought of repaying his kindness.

"Ma Lou, it's been a long time, and you're fine."

Shu An said with a very happy expression, he was naturally happy to see his old friend still alive.

At the beginning, Ma Lou was almost 45, and 20 years later, he will be 65.

This age does not mean that you will not be alive, in this era.
