Chapter 229 Bestow Words!

When Shen Yi came back to Jiangdu, besides celebrating the New Year in his hometown, the most important thing was to formally apprentice.

Master Lu has helped him a lot in the past two years, Shen Yi is willing to worship him as a teacher, and Master Lu is the head of Ganquan Academy, that is, the nominal "head" of Ganquan Academy, so he can worship this kind of teacher as his teacher , Shen Yi's status among the scholars will suddenly rise a lot.

This is why Zhang Jian congratulated him.

Two days later, Jiangdu Mansion's Luming Banquet was officially held in Ganquan Academy.

Originally, Master Lu only planned to set up two or three tables for this banquet at Ganquan Academy, and invited the academy’s internal staff to attend the banquet, but Chen Fuzun went to the academy himself and made a final decision with Lu Anshi on holding the Luming Banquet at Ganquan Academy , And it means that all expenses can be paid from the government office, and it is also handled by the government office.

In order to save trouble and money, Lu Anshi agreed.

After all, what Chen Fuzun did is also good for Ganquan Academy. Although Ganquan Academy was the undisputed number one academy in Jiangdu Prefecture before, and even the most famous academy in several nearby prefectures, not all the new recruits in Jiangdu Prefecture The students of Ganquan Academy held a Luming Banquet in the academy, which was regarded as a kind of face for Ganquan Academy by the officials of Jiangdu Prefecture.

There are also reasons why Chen Fuzun sold well to the academy.

Although he has decided to be a firm Kame faction in the future, when the radical faction is powerful, he naturally cannot fight hard with the radical faction, but try to ease the relationship with Ganquan Academy.

After Chen Fuzun, Zhang Jian also went to the academy, and told Lu Anshi with a smile that the county government's Luming Banquet was also going to be held in the academy.

In Jiangdu County Fuguo, the two Luming Banquets could have been held together, but the county lord and the mansion lord can't urinate in the same pot. Originally, they planned to do it separately. Now that Chen Manor has gone to Ganquan Academy, the original Zhang Jian, who is the disciple of the Academy, naturally cannot lag behind.

And these two days, Shen Yi was also very busy.

In addition to dealing with those relatives, he also had to deal with fellow Juren from the same department, as well as some random people who came to visit from unknown sources.

Fortunately, time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it came to the day of the Luming Banquet in Ganquan Academy.

Shen Yi took his father Shen Zhang and younger brother Shen Heng to this Luming Banquet.

The reason why I took the old man there was to train Master Lu, and brought the younger brother... because Shen Hengben was a student of the academy, so it was reasonable to go for a meal.

On the day of the Luming Banquet, God was very kind. The weather was fine and the autumn air was crisp. People from the government office and county government office were preparing in the Ganquan Academy early in the morning, and the arrangements were very lively.

At this moment, there are actually quite a few students in the academy, including children and students. Since they are not qualified to attend the meeting, they can only watch helplessly from the sidelines.

When it was almost noon, the Luming Banquet finally started. Mr. Lu sat at a table with two parents and officials, as well as some main officials of Jiangdu Mansion.

The threshold for this table is extremely high, basically Jinshi start, so Shen Yi and other newly promoted Juren have no way to sit at this table, they can only sit at the same table with the newly promoted Juren of the same discipline.

And the gentry and sages of Jiangdu Prefecture also arranged a table for them.

Other miscellaneous characters also had seats, and there were seven or eight tables of guests in the whole Luming Banquet, which was very lively.

After Master Lu and Chen Fuzun delivered their speeches successively, the Luming Banquet was officially started.

Chen Fuzun and Master Lu sat together. The Jiangdu parent officer looked at Lu Anshi and said with a smile: "This year's rural examination, we will select 19 people from Jiangdu Prefecture, and 11 of them are from the academy. The academy taught and educated Jiangdu Prefecture. Mo Dayan, together with Chen, the magistrate, is also honored by the Academy."

Local officials have the duty of "educating". Local students' good test scores are also a kind of political achievement for local officials, so Chen Yu said that he was honored.

Master Lu shook his head slightly and said: "Most of the students in the academy are from Jiangdu, and they were all educated in Jiangdu. They are well educated by the government, otherwise my academy would be a clever woman who can't live without rice."

In Vanity Fair, the most important thing is to give each other seedlings.

Chen Yu boasted about the academy, and the academy would naturally praise it back.

The bigwigs at the "Jinshi table" were pushing glasses to change. When they were eating happily, Master Lu raised the wine glass, glanced at everyone at the same table, and said with a smile: "There is a student in my academy, surnamed Shen and named Yi. He was a keen and studious student when he was young. He won the Jiankang Provincial Examination this year and was ranked No. 7. After he returned to his hometown, he came to see me and asked me to be his teacher. Today, he happened to be taking advantage of the Luming Banquet to invite you to do it. a testimony."

In fact, the master-apprentice status of the two has already been decided.

But at this moment, Lu Anshi couldn't tell these people that Shen Yi became a teacher last year, otherwise others would think he was a hypocrite, so why not simply say that he wants to take Shen Yi as his apprentice.

Anyway, with Mr. Lu's "status in the world", not to mention accepting a newly promoted Juren, even accepting a new Jinshi as an apprentice is completely sufficient.

As soon as Lu Anshi said these words, a smile appeared on Chen Fuzun's face. The Fuzun stood up directly and waved to Shen Yi at the next table: "Shen Yi, Shen Yi, come here."

Shen Yi had been prepared for a long time. After hearing Chen Yu's voice, he said "excuse me" to the fellow examiners at the same table, and then came to the next table in front of Chen Fuzun, and lowered his hands, "The Fuzun called me?"

Chen Yu smiled and shook his head: "I didn't call you, but your teacher called you."

Master Lu sat at the head of the table with a calm expression.

"Yesterday you said you wanted to be a teacher, and you accepted as a teacher. Today, in front of the princes of Jiangdu Mansion, you are here to be a teacher, and these elders can also testify to you."

Shen Yi nodded quickly, bowed and said, "Yes, teacher."

As he said that, he took a deep breath and was about to kneel down, but Zhang Jian Zhang County Magistrate stopped him with his hand, and said with a smile: "Don't be so impatient, after dinner, go to the main hall of the academy to kowtow, kowtow on the dining table Apprenticeship, a little too casual."

Shen Yi looked at Lu Anshi, who nodded slightly, with a calm expression: "What Yi An said is, you go back to eat first, and when we finish eating, let's go to the main hall to salute."

After saying this, Master Lu looked at the "Jinshi" at the same table, and said with a smile: "Don't leave, gentlemen, stay here to be a witness for Lu and the apprentice."

Among the people at the same table, Mr. Lu was the most famous in Shilin, or in the "academic circle". When he said something, everyone else nodded and smiled in response.

"sure."

Ever since, after the Lu Ming Banquet, these Jinshi masters did not leave, but gathered in the main hall of the academy to welcome guests.

In the main hall, Master Lu sat upright.

Shen Zhang has also handed over Shu Xiu to the Shen family.

Chen Yu and Chen Fuzun stood aside and acted as a temporary "Master of Ceremonies". The old man put his hands in the sleeves in front of him, with a smile on his face: "Young Master Shen, serve tea and kowtow."

Shen Yi nodded, held a cup of hot tea over his head with both hands, knelt down in front of Lu Anshi, and handed the bowl of tea to Master Lu.

"Teacher drink tea."

Lu Anshi looked at Shen Yi in front of him, smiled and said, "Okay."

He reached out to take the bowl of tea.

Shen Yi knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times respectfully.

After three kowtows, the master-student gift is considered complete.

After Lu Anshi took a sip of tea, he got up from the chair and reached out to help Shen Yi up.

He had a smile on his face.

"From now on, we will be serious masters and apprentices."

Shen Yi bowed with a respectful tone.

"Please give me the words..."
