Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 669 Invitation

Confucianism pays attention to the order of elders and younger ones. Fu Nian and Chunyu Yue are of the same generation, but Chunyu Yue is a few years older than Fu Nian.

However, Confucianism pays more attention to the distinction between superiority and inferiority. It is an indisputable fact that the Confucian sect is divided. However, Xiaoshengxian Village is the nominal leader of Confucianism after all. It is the Holy Land of Confucianism. Fu Nian, as the head of Xiaoshengxian Village, is the person with the highest status in Confucianism.

Not to mention Chunyu Yue, an elder of his generation, even Xunzi, who was his uncle, Fu Nian did not need to abide by the rules.

Of course, the only exception is Fu Nian's teacher, whose status is equivalent to half of his biological father. Not to mention being the leader, even when he is a king, he has to behave himself.

Fu Nian greeted him first because he was always rigid and serious in nature. In these aspects, he was strict with himself and lenient towards others. Chunyu Yue naturally could not deliberately take advantage of others.

In response, Fu Nian smiled implicitly, no longer being polite, and invited Chunyu Yue into the guest room, where they sat down.

Fu Nian asked first, "Dr. Chunyu is here to arrange the details of the lecture?"

"Haha..." Chunyu Yue smiled and stroked his long beard, shook his head and said, "There is no rush. Master Fu Nian has come a long way, so he should take a good rest first."

"I came here to ask Master Fu Nian whether you will live in this hotel or move to the academy in the coming days."

The Academy, as the name suggests, is a place for teaching and learning.

All seven countries will set up public schools, but whether it is quantity or quality... it is better than nothing.

However, the academy Chun Yuyue mentioned does not belong to this category. It is a place specially established to teach the children of princes and nobles. The conditions are favorable, the teachers are strong, and the number of people is streamlined. However, the standards of the students are generally uneven.

but!

As soon as the students said there was no problem, all of them were quite obedient, at least on the surface. Some were willing to learn, while others were just waiting to die.

Of course, there is no need to talk about the accommodation conditions of the Xuegong, but the conditions of the Guanyi are equally luxurious. After all, it is a place for receiving foreign guests, so it cannot be shabby.

The only difference between the two is that one is far away from the palace and requires running back and forth, while the other is within the palace city and does not require much effort.

Chunyu asked Fu Nian more and more because he thought it would be more suitable to live in the academy. If he didn't ask, Fu Nian would definitely not be able to make such a request.

The fact was exactly as Chunyu Yue thought. Fu Nian responded without much thought:

"In that case, I'd better go to the academy and make some noise."

"I'm sorry for Dr. Chunyu's arrangement."

"It's just my job." Chunyu Yue nodded with a smile.

"Well... why not live in my Imperial Master's Mansion?"

At this time, a voice suddenly came from the door, causing Fu Nian and Chun Yuyue to look back, shocked.

By the time the two of them realized the identity of the speaker, he had already entered the house.

The two of them quickly stood up and saluted together, "I have met the Imperial Master."

Just from what they just said, Fu Nian and the two knew who was coming.

Gu Xun waved his hand casually, "No need to be so polite."

Chunyu Yue straightened up and asked, "Is the Imperial Master here?"

"Come and take a look." Gu Xun replied with a smile of course, "After all, it was me who proposed this lecture and exchange. Now that the real owner is here, shouldn't I come and take a look?"

"Oh... haha, of course, it's natural for the Imperial Master to ask questions." Chunyu Yue saw that Gu Xun's attitude was quite kind, felt a little relieved, and replied with a smile.

He didn't have much contact with Gu Xun, he only met a few times, and his understanding of him mainly relied on some market rumors. Just now he was not sure what the other party wanted to do, and he was a little uneasy. But Fu Nian felt something in his heart at this moment. He didn't want to give lectures and exchanges, but it was Gu Xun who personally promoted it. How should he decide on the matter of Junior Brother Yan Lu...

After thinking in his mind, Fu Nian interjected with a normal expression, "Master, please take a seat first."

"Yeah." Gu Xun nodded casually, turned around and looked around, then found a nearby seat and sat down.

When Fu Nian and Chunyu Yue saw him sitting down, they also took their seats again.

Gu Xun saw them sitting down and asked again, "What do you think of my proposal just now?"

Chunyu Yue lowered his eyebrows and did not answer. This matter was not his decision and it was not his turn to worry about it.

However, I couldn't help but think about how the Imperial Preceptor, who never welcomed guests, would want to drag people to live in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion?
  Could it be because of that Ninth Young Master from South Korea?
  But it’s not necessary…

Although it feels a bit far-fetched, this is the only connection Chun Yuyue can think of between Gu Xun and Xiaoshengxian Village.

After some hesitation and consideration, Fu Nian shook his head and refused, "Thank you, Master Imperial Master, for your kindness."

"But I'm waiting here. There are a lot of people here, and there must be women in your house. It's not convenient, so I won't bother you."

After hearing this, Gu Xun smiled and said, "I didn't originally want everyone to go to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion. I mainly wanted you to go, Master Fu Nian."

"Of course, if there are other friends from Han Fei's school in the past, they might as well come together."

"Haha..." Gu Xun added a final explanation - an explanation for Chunyu Yue to listen to, "Han Fei is living in my house now, but he is waiting for the arrival of Master Fu Nian, and the senior brothers will reunite and reminisce."

As for the issue of women, he just ignored it - this point was the most important, but there was no need to say it.

"..." It was probably PTSD. When Fu Nian heard Han Fei's name, his brows wrinkled unnaturally on his originally calm and natural face.

He didn't want to accept Gu Xun's invitation originally, and now he didn't even want to agree...

Of course, Fu Nian's work has never been dominated by personal likes and dislikes, but the fact of living in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion itself is not very appropriate and too public, even with Han Fei's apparent relationship.

"Thank you for your kindness, Imperial Master." Fu Nian declined again, "As for Junior Brother Han Fei, Fu Nian will go and talk to him about the past in his spare time."

Gu Xun looked at Fu Nian, smacked his lips, and did not continue to insist. He stood up and said, "That's fine, Master Fu Nian is a guest from afar, so let's follow Master Fu Nian's wish."

"In your spare time, you might as well come and sit at the Imperial Master's Mansion."

Fu Nian also stood up, clasped his hands and replied, "Fu Nian is sure."

"Okay, I won't interrupt the two of you discussing business, and I'll take my leave."

Holding his fists, Gu Xun turned around and left. Fu Nian and Chun Yuyue naturally walked all the way to the post where he left.

After Gu Xun left, Chunyu Yue said to Fu Nian with a wry smile, "This national master, Gu Xun, always behaves wantonly and openly. Master Fu Nian, you... Haha, don't care."

Fu Nian nodded, with no expression on his stern face, "Dr. Chunyu, don't worry, I have been in contact with Gu Guoshi as early as the time of Songhai."

"Well, that's good." Chunyu Yue nodded. He had many doubts in his heart, but he couldn't ask them. He could only smile and return to the topic, "Since Head Fu Nian has decided to stay in the academy temporarily, then We can arrange for someone to clean it up, so we can move there as soon as possible and save our worries.”

Fu Nian nodded and agreed, "I'll make arrangements right away."
