Chapter 257 Invitation to the Writer

The room was quiet, and Wen Junqing stood outside the door without daring to say anything. He waited and waited, but never heard his father reply. Presumably, his father disliked him for disturbing him. The delivered envelope was about to turn around and leave.

"Come in!" At this moment, Wen Shangqing's voice was heard in the room, and Wen Junqing was taken aback because his father let him into the room today.

Therefore, Wen Junqing quickly took a deep breath, calmed down, and gently pushed open the door of the bookstore.

Sitting obliquely in the room with his back to Wen Junqing was a plain-clothed man with black hair tied casually by a simple gray long belt. At this time, some books, pens, ink, and paper were scattered around his body. The letter was placed beside him, and he took a few steps back slowly. Seeing that there was still a candle beside him, he wanted to move his steps to blow it out, but seeing that his father had already taken the envelope from the Xu family sideways, he again Not daring to make the slightest sound.

Thinking that the content of the letter was not long, Wen Junqing saw that his father had finished reading it quickly, but he put it down and picked it up again, and read it again, thinking that the content of the letter might really be as extraordinary as the Xu family brothers said. More than usual, is it really a strange book?

"Go out!" Wen Junqing curled his lips again at the indifferent three words, and went out without daring to ask any more questions.

It's just that no one expected that Lin Shuran received an invitation from the Wen family the next day, asking her to visit the Wen family.

Lin Shuran immediately tidied up briefly, then got into the carriage and came to Wen's house. When she arrived, the door of Wen's house was still closed. After the concierge notified the owner, the rare Wen's door opened.

It is a rare event in the capital city that the Bachelor of Arts opens the door to welcome guests. After Lin Shuran stepped in with both feet, the news spread all over the capital city like wings, and even the palace heard the news.

"Wen Shangqing really let the general's wife in?" Emperor Zhao You looked at Eunuch Qu with some disbelief, and standing beside him were Taifu Lin Youxing and Prime Minister Chen Yanzhi, both of whom had been shut out at Wen's house.

Eunuch Qu nodded with a smile, and told the emperor that the news was absolutely true, and after Lin Shuran entered, the door of Wen's house was closed instantly, and now Xu's carriage was still parked outside Wen's house.

"This is really strange!" Emperor Zhao You also laughed after hearing this, and then looked at Lin Youxing and said deliberately, "Teacher Lin, you are not as good as your daughter!"

Lin Youxing said helplessly with a bitter face: "After all, it's my uncle who loves my niece. My brother-in-law can't get into his eyes. I'm ashamed, ashamed!"

Emperor Zhao You said again: "Master Taifu, don't be ashamed, it's rare for me to see a scholar, let alone you!"

Prime Minister Chen Yanzhi stood aside and did not speak. The two monarchs and ministers, a little fox and an old fox, sang together. He felt really unhappy when he saw it. An arrogant and arrogant person like Wen Shangqing should be punished. However, the emperor always pampered him, which would only fuel the arrogance of those ignorant literati.

At the same time, after Lin Shuran entered Wen's house, she first met with her aunt Shen and her cousins, and then was sent by Wen Junqing to wait in the side hall of the book pavilion where Wen Shangqing was.

The fragrance of tea is wafting, and the fragrance of ink is bursting. Although Lin Shuran is just sitting in the hall, she seems to be able to feel the strong fragrance of books, and feels that the atmosphere of other houses is very different.

She waited unhurriedly, and after a long while, there was the sound of footsteps, and then a middle-aged man with a stalwart, elegant and unrestrained figure came out of the cabinet. He was handsome, His eyebrows, eyes, nose and lips are quite similar to his mother Wen's. His eyes are bright and energetic, revealing deep wisdom, and he walks upright and steady, with a strong character. From the inside to the outside, there is an extraordinary temperament.

Lin Shuran hurriedly stood up and saluted this person. She knew that the man in front of her was her famous uncle Wen Shangqing without any introduction.

Wen Shangqing only glanced at Lin Shuran briefly, raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was a slight surprise in his eyes. The young woman with a woman's hair bun in front of him was actually the same as the innocent and lovely little girl he had seen before. It's a big difference, like two irrelevant people, the change is so great.

"You want to use half a volume of books to negotiate terms with me, talk about it!" Wen Shangqing said with a straight face after sitting down.

This little girl didn't learn her mother's kindness, but learned her father's treachery, and she played tricks on his uncle. At this time, Wen Shangqing was not happy to see Lin Shuran.

When Lin Shuran came to see her uncle Wen Shangqing, she was at a loss. Seeing that he spoke so directly, she was a little stunned, but immediately reacted, she stood up and apologized and said, "Uncle, I didn't mean to talk to you. What are the conditions, it's really not easy to meet you, and I can't think of any other way to throw stones to ask for directions, so I have to make a bad move, and I hope uncle will not be angry!"

If someone else, Wen Shangqing, would never see him, but after all, it is his own sister's child, and the Wen family is very protective in their bones, so he will set aside a little time for Lin Shuran.

"What kind of stone do you want to throw, and what way do you ask?" Wen Shangqing didn't want to waste too much time because of Lin Shuran's affairs, so he asked directly.

Lin Shuran knew that her uncle had a strange temper, so she quickly took out the two booklets she carried with her and handed them over respectfully with both hands, saying, "Uncle, this is the second half volume of "Su Shu", and the other booklet is the pamphlet of the academy that the queen mother ordered me to open." , there is also a piece of writing written by me inside. I hope that uncle and your friends can read the brochure of the academy. I would like to invite some of your friends to teach in the academy. In addition, I would also like to ask uncle to give me some pointers. The handwriting, my mother said, I imitated your handwriting since I was a child, and you are the most qualified to comment on my handwriting."

After saying this, Lin Shuran took his leave and left without saying anything about Wen Shangqing. He just took a deep look at her and asked his servants to lead her out.

Lin Shuran's eldest aunt Shen and younger cousin Wen Junqing had been waiting for her outside the book pavilion. Seeing her coming out, Wen Junqing couldn't help asking: "Cousin, have you seen your father? He talked to you Did you say something?"

Chen looked at Lin Shuran with a helpless smile, stepped forward to hold her hand affectionately, and said intimately: "Your uncle didn't make things difficult for you, did he? If you said something unpleasant, sister, please don't Take it to heart!"

"Auntie, that's my uncle. He just scolded me and beat me up when he was in a bad mood. What's more, he didn't embarrass me at all. He said a few words to me, which made people treat me I sent it out." Lin Shuran said with a smile, and then the three of them walked out together.
