Ten Dragons Take the Inheritance

Chapter 31
The golden autumn in October in the capital is extremely beautiful, but what is even more beautiful is the red leaves of Xiangshan Mountain. Where the wind passes by, waves are set off, which are as gorgeous as the sunset glow in summer. There are also clusters of autumn chrysanthemums blooming everywhere, embellishing the scenery of the sky. Autumn landscape of mountains.Xiangshan was originally the first choice for arty people in the capital to go to autumn. Since Luding Bookstore opened its gate here two years ago, Xiangshan has become a must-see for celebrities. The land has to try to enter the Luding Bookstore to attend lectures - the face of a generation of upright officials Guo Xiu is one reason, but more importantly, the bookstore has a strong background. The adults of the hospital also come here to play guest roles from time to time.

The red leaves outside the book garden are like fire, and the chants are bursting inside the book garden. Mr. Guo Xiu is not to mention how comfortable he is. He is proud to see the book garden transform from an empty shell into a holy place for scholars in the Northland.Well, the West Lake Longjing tea in his hand is also a good thing, this little Belle Master Yin Zuo really has a heart.Guo Xiu picked up the small teapot and took a sip, but before he could swallow it, he suddenly saw a familiar person smiling at him. Coughing hard, it took a long time to stop, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "The old man greets Lord Baylor, what is the wind that brought you here today?"

what wind?Dongfeng, we borrowed Dongfeng to come here, heh, this old man Guo has not seen for two years, and he is funny when he talks, it seems that the past two years have been very comfortable.Yinzuo laughed and said, "Guo Zhangshan is so leisurely. Ben Baylor is free today, so he just came to visit. Are you welcome?"

"What Lord Baylor said, this library is originally yours. Come whenever you want. The old man in front of you is still thinking about Lord Baylor. Just in time, Lord Baylor is here." Guo Xiu replied with a smile.

"West Lake Longjing? The old man can really enjoy it." Yin Zuo originally liked tea, and he had money in his hands. He drank good tea and was an expert in tea. He picked up the small teapot on the table and opened the lid Just by looking at it, you will know that this tea is the best.

"Hehe, Liu Mingchuan, shopkeeper Liu, sent someone to send it here. He said it was rewarded by Lord Baylor, and I haven't thanked Lord Baylor yet." Guo Xiu twitched his beard with a smile and said, "Lord Baylor has nothing to worry about. Climb to the Three Treasures Hall, if you need me for anything, just open your mouth, I will do it even if I put my life into it.”

Guo Xiu's words made it clear that he intended to be loyal to Yinzuo, not because Yinzuo let him be the head of a book garden, but because he believed that Yinzuo would definitely do a lot in the future-although Guo Xiu won the crown, he was a mess after all. After more than ten years in the officialdom, his eyeballs are poisonous, and the news is well-informed. Guo Xiu knows what Yinzuo has done in the past two years. In his opinion, Yinzuo's qualifications are definitely ranked first among the many elder brothers. The few in the forefront, although they may not know which cloud will rain, but Guo Xiu is already on Yinzuo's boat now, so he can only follow.

Everyone understands people, so there is no need to say some things clearly. When Mr. Guo mentioned this, Yinzuo knew it in his heart, but in Yinzuo's opinion, Mr. Guo is old, and it won't be too long to help him Besides, Shuyuan cannot do without Guo Xiu's hosting, Yinzuo pondered for a while and said: "Ben Belle heard that Guo Pu, the eldest son of Guo Zhangshan, has come to Beijing, but he plans to participate in the spring test?"

"That's right, Gouzi is also studying in the academy now. This kid has a stubborn temper, but his writing is still passable." When mentioning his beloved son, Guo Xiu's face was full of pride.

"That's good, after the test, Ben Baylor will see him again."

The subtext of Yinzuo's words is that regardless of whether Guo Pu is in the middle or not, the matter of becoming an official is on his own shoulders. Guo Xiu understands it when he hears it. Although he is upright and disdains to go out for himself, the matter is related to his son. Besides, it was the practice of the Qing Dynasty that elder brother used his own people, and it did not violate the laws of the Qing Dynasty. Naturally, Guo Xiu did not object, and said with a smile: "So, old man On behalf of the dog, I would like to thank Lord Baylor."

"Well." Yin Zuo was not too polite, just nodded, and then asked casually: "How many students are there in the Shuyuan now, and how many people will participate in the examination next spring?"

Although Yin Zuo's appearance was casual, Guo Xiu knew very well in his heart: I dare to say that Lord Baylor is planning to raise the banner and stand on the top of the mountain.The corner of his mouth curled, and he said with a smile: "There are more than 300 students in the academy, and most of them are qualified for the spring examination. Among them, there are quite a few talents, and Qin Hao, Shi Zhihao, You Ye, and Lin Xuanyi are the most outstanding. , known as the Four Heroes of the Deer and Cauldron. Do you want to meet Lord Baylor?"

We need to meet, otherwise what would we do all the way here, but before we meet, we must read their articles first.Yinzuo waved his hand and said, "Let's discuss this matter again. Ben Baylor wants to come up with a question to test those students. Is it convenient?"

"This is a trivial matter, Lord Belle, please ask a question."

"Okay, let's take the topic of 'First Work', and the time is one hour." The topic chosen by Yinzuo is not difficult. In other words, lead by example.

Yinzuo spoke lightly, but the whole book garden was full of chaos. All the old masters who were giving lectures stopped their classes, and they were busy arranging exam questions and grading papers. They worked for a long time. Finally, more than 400 masterpieces were selected from more than [-] papers and sent to Guo Xiu's office.

Well, Guo Pu's article is not bad, the allusions are well used, and the words have substance, but the choice of words and sentences is not sophisticated enough, it is too simple. As far as the article is concerned, it may be difficult to enter the top three in this subject. It seems I am really busy.Yin Zuo first checked Guo Pu's papers, and he was not very satisfied. From the text, it can be seen that Guo Pu is upright and flexible. This is very similar to Guo Xiu before he was crowned. Fear of embarrassment is of great use.

Yin Zuo read more than a dozen papers one after another, but they were all piled up with gorgeous rhetoric, empty, and he was really angry in his heart: 20 taels of silver was thrown down every year to get such a result. Thanks to Mr. Guo boasting for a long time, these nonsense articles are really ridiculous.Yinzuo was very annoyed in his heart, and flipped through the papers casually, intending to stop there, when suddenly a paper jumped into his eyes: good words!I'm afraid this hand and body are three points stronger than myself!Looking at the paper carefully, I was very excited: this master not only writes well, but the articles are also top-grade. The words between the lines show that this son has a lot of experience, and his literary talent is yet simple. "Okay!" Yinzuo couldn't help but patted the table and applauded.
