Dao Fruit

Originally, after Zhao Yuan's words came out, no one paid attention to Ma Wan anymore.

According to Ma Wan, Qiu Yan relied on his grandfather Ma Yang's connections to pass the exam for Jieyuan. This could easily be misunderstood. Qi Zhengyuan, the original exam chief of Jiannan Road, had a relationship with Ma Yang as a teacher and student. , in the eyes of some Ma family members, it was Qiu Yan who had taken advantage of Ma Yang.

In fact, anyone with a little knowledge can see that the more this kind of thing happens, the more suspicion must be avoided. If Qiu Yan had not relied on a military strategy to defeat the soldiers of the Marsh people, and even directly reached Shengting, even if his article No matter how well written it is, Qi Zhengyuan would not ask him to be Jieyuan.

Of course, Ma Wan could not see these things. However, he said that Qiu Yan relied on his own family and lacked knowledge, so he wanted to be admitted to Lizong Academy but could not get it. What Zhao Yuan said later was like a Like a slap, it hit him firmly on the face——

Qiu Yan was not a disciple of the other party, but a disciple who refuted the other party. Even Mr. Xiao Chen was alarmed and wanted to accept him as his disciple, but he refused!

This incident already has some flavor of legend. If Qiu Yan goes to the temple and makes a difference in the future, the historian will definitely list a sentence or two about this incident when writing history.

Don't underestimate these two sentences. You must know the official history. It is to be passed down through the ages, recited by future generations, and may even become a test question in the future!

Of course, these are all things for later, but the immediate impact is also very obvious. At least the way everyone looks at Qiu Yan has changed. No one will take Ma Wan's words seriously anymore. If they are spread out in the future, Ma Mansion will Leave something to say.

After Ma Wan noticed the change in the atmosphere, her face was on fire, and she felt regret and anger in her heart. She couldn't vent it out, and her hatred for Qiu Yan deepened.

At this moment, Qiu Yan said something like this, and his words even sounded like the elders were lecturing the younger ones. Immediately, it was like boiling oil falling into the fire, which completely aroused Ma Wan's anger!

Burning with anger, reason fades away.

Snap!

Ma Wan slapped his palm on the table, stood up abruptly, his face flushed, and shouted loudly: "What? You still want to teach me a lesson? It's not your turn as an outsider to control how my house does things! Even if you He has talent and knowledge, but he relied on his family ancestors to make his fortune in the beginning. Could it be that now that he has achieved success, he will turn his back on others? "

Facing the furious Ma Wan. However, Qiu Yan's expression remained unchanged, as if he had expected such a situation, and responded calmly: "Ma Gong has served the country and the people throughout his life. He has a vast knowledge of the past and the present. He has given me many pointers. I have also kept them in my heart. I used to talk about them all the time." , Ma Xiang said to me, 'Go first, then follow what he says'."

These words. This is what the most holy master said to his students. The meaning is straightforward, that is, actions come first and words come last.

"Things you always say may not be useful." Qiu Yan looked at Ma Wan and narrowed his eyes. "It would be even more wrong if you were so arrogant. It is important to know that those who know do not lose people and do not lose their words. What you did . If word spreads, not to mention that I, Qiu Yan, will not repay the kindness, but I will inevitably criticize the Ma family, saying that the Ma family is trying to repay the kindness! madness!"

Qiu Yan's words were merciless, and Ma Wan's face turned red and white.

Since he saw the other party's hostility, how could Qiu Yan tie himself up? However, he knew that this was not the place to settle grievances. He said these words just to shake the other party's heart and then lay a secret plot.

"Although this Ma Wan is not well-educated, he was born in a scholarly family and lives in a place like Dongdu where there are many powerful people. It is impossible for him to not be able to distinguish the important from the important. Moreover, his attitude changed too suddenly. There may be something wrong with it, so he cannot take it lightly. ”

What Ma Wan did gave Qiu Yan the feeling of a playboy. Such a person was definitely not the best of the Ma family, so Qiu Yan was not worried about offending the Ma family. If the Ma family would treat Qiu Yan because of Ma Wan, If there is some suppression, it also means that this family has no future.

However, it is inevitable to come to apologize afterwards, explain the matter clearly, and make certain gestures. In this way, you may get closer to the Ma family and appear to have an unusual friendship.

And his merciless rebuke also made others understand his code of conduct, and everyone had their own thoughts.

Just at this time, the waiter in the tavern came over with several plates of food. Han Zhuo saw it, coughed, and then said: "Okay, young people like to talk fast. In fact, they are all trivial. Don't worry about it." In my heart, come on, forget about trivial matters and try the food in this restaurant first.”

His words gave Ma Wan a step up. The latter snorted coldly and sat down. But for the next time, Ma Wan was on pins and needles. He was silent and no one was talking to him. On the other hand, Qiu Yan , but they were drinking, talking and laughing.

The second Miss Han, Han Weier, and Qiu Yan looked like they were having a great time talking to each other, and they seemed to regret meeting each other so late.

This scene fell into Ma Wan's eyes, making him even more angry and angry.

Qiu Yan naturally felt this and frowned slightly. He didn't want to cause any rift with the Ma family because of this person.

"Second Miss Han just helped me out. I can't refuse people thousands of miles away. But the more this happens, the more hostility Ma Wan will be aroused. It seems that we will have to make other preparations later. It's best to ask Han Zhuo sent a message to the Ma family."

On the other side, looking at the performance of Ma Wan and Qiu Yan, Han Zhuo shook his head and felt a little disappointed with Ma Wan.

"Lu Du has been serving as an official for many years, and he has neglected to discipline his son, so that he can't speak clearly. I hope that after today's experience, he can learn from it and gain wisdom..."

Thinking of this, Han Zhuo's eyes fell on the calm and composed Qiu Yan again, and he nodded secretly.

"No wonder my father would invite this person into the house. Now that I see it, he is indeed an extraordinary person. He is a talent that can be made. I helped him unintentionally today. It is considered a good relationship. Maybe I can gain a lot. Listen to what I just said In words, he and Ma Gong have a teacher-student relationship, which is good news. I will go to Ma’s house in person later to explain the matter clearly to avoid further trouble. "

………………

The meal took a long time. Once the banquet was over, Ma Wan should go ahead. As for Qiu Yan, he chatted with a few others for a few words before leaving. But before leaving, he chatted with Han Zhuo for a few words. , both of them looked satisfied.

"This Han Zhuo is a person worth getting to know. However, there is a temptation in his words. He asked me indirectly about my opinion on the new law. It seems that he is a man who wants something. I don't have an official position now, so I should not interfere with these things. It’s better to avoid self-defeating. Even if you want to take advantage of the situation, it’s not like this.”

Making friends with officials and aristocratic families is beneficial to your career, but you should not be blind, otherwise it will be counterproductive. Qiu Yan still understands this. He thought about it while returning, and when he arrived at the inn where he was staying, he already had a plan in mind.

However, after returning to the room, Qiu Yan heard some surprising news from Hu Qi.

"Someone asked me to fight?"

When he heard the news, Qiu Yan had a strange look on his face.

"Yes," Hu Didian nodded and raised his hand, "The owner of the study was very impressed after reading the young master's words. He said a number himself without waiting for our brothers to quote."

Qiu Yan followed Hu Qi's finger and looked over. What he saw was a few silver cakes. A quick glance revealed that there were at least ten taels. This was not a small amount. Even in Dongdu, it was enough to buy a courtyard in the outer city. , there is still a lot of surplus.

On the other side, Hu Qi added: "However, when the master's book was collected by the owner, someone came after hearing the news. After reading the master's handwriting, he seemed a little unconvinced and said that he wanted to compete with you. The man also wrote a letter of challenge and asked me to bring it to the young master." As he said that, Hu Qi took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over.

Qiu Yan took the letter and opened the envelope, but felt increasingly weird in his heart.

Before going to the Han Mansion, he asked Hu Qi to take a piece of his calligraphy and go to a study in the city to sell it. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen.

"Um?"

Qiu Yan was still thinking, his eyes fell on the letter in his hand, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"This word..."

I can see that the handwriting on the paper has a charm, faintly beating, showing a world-wide vision, and there is a spirit revealed between the lines.

"Shang Zhiming benevolent and righteous, cultivate one's character to serve the people."

After looking at it for a while, Qiu Yan closed the envelope and uttered these ten words, while a bookshelf faintly appeared in his soul, and there was a volume of books in it that resonated with it.

"It seems that Ya Sheng's school has not disappeared. There is no peace these days..."

After sighing with emotion, Qiu Yan put the letter away and said to Hu Qi, "Did that person say anything else?"

Hu Qi thought for a moment and said, "He also said that if you plan to discuss Taoism in the apricot forest, Master, then he should accompany you."

"Xinglin Forum is indeed a prosperous literary world." Qiu Yan laughed after hearing this. "I don't know how many talented people can be attracted. However, the more such people, the better. The more people, the more people can be attracted." I came into contact with different humanitarian ideas and perfected the humanistic fire!”

Qiu Yan was thinking about it when suddenly his heart moved and he turned around and walked out.

"Sir, what are you..."

Hu Qi and Dai Guo looked puzzled, but soon saw the figure of an old servant outside the door.

"Mr. Wu." Qiu Yan saluted with clasped fists. He recognized this person as the old servant outside Han Yi's study, whom Han Weier once called "Grandpa Wu."

"Young Master Qiu, you're welcome, I don't deserve to be called this," the old servant said, raising his hands and presenting the slender box he was holding in front of Qiu Yan, "I'm here because of my master's order to bring this I'll lend it to you temporarily."

"Oh? What is this?" Qiu Yan glanced at the box with confusion on his face. He did not feel any breath or fluctuation on it.

Seeing this, the old servant flicked his fingers slightly, and with a burst of force, the lid opened a gap, and a solemn and majestic aura suddenly leaked out.

Qiu Yan's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes showed a look of shock. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
