On this side, Fu and Mo came together. Mo followed Du Xiancheng to meet Ji darru. But when he came back, his face was not good. Maybe he didn't see him, which was what Su Wanping expected.

The house of the Ji family is too wide to eat, drink, and have fun. Even if they can't see the people they want to see, they all come to Ji darru, but they can't see the owner even though they have broken their heads.

Ji Xian, the main hall of the Ji family's house, has seen local officials in his hometown one after another since the morning. He is already a little tired. In front of these local officials and aristocratic family owners, he is still the serious Ji Daru.

But when they left, only his wife, Liang, was left in the house. His posture sank and he leaned against the chair. He felt exhausted.

Liang quickly got up and pressed his husband's shoulder. Although Liang was no longer young and his technique was not as agile as he was when he was young, Ji Xian showed a smile. Ji Daru married only one wife in his life, and never took a concubine. His two sons and one daughter were born into a proper wife. They were officials in the imperial court. Before he resigned, one went to Bashu and the other went to Pingjiang Prefecture, The daughter was married to the land of Yanbei, and now only husband and wife are left to return to their hometown.

His hometown is still there, and his hometown people are still so enthusiastic. However, Ji Daru knows that he will never return to the harmony he once had. Nowadays, people who see him are all in his name, or the students who are instructed by him, or friends with him and seek protection. His utilitarian heart is obvious.

When the Liang family pressed Ji Xian's temple, the old housekeeper nearby entered the hall and reported respectfully: "master, Ruan Zhizhou wants to see you."

Ruan Wenshan is the eldest son of the Ruan family. His family background is prominent, and he is also a figure in the capital.

This person must see, Ji Xian had to ask his wife to step down first. He had not yet made up his spirit, but he still sat upright. The momentum of not being angry and self-confident was unconsciously revealed.

When Ruan Wenshan came in, he saw Ji Daru on the main seat. He was over the age of Huajia, his temples were gray, but his eyes were bright. Ruan Wenshan saluted him respectfully and then sat down in the guest seat.

"My Lord, what are your plans for your return?"

Ruan Wenshan is about 40 years old. His face is graceful and calm. His tone is very respectful, but he seems to have a trace of expectation.

Ji Xiancai didn't allow Ruan Wenshan to come, but he said frankly that he had this idea when he went back to his hometown. He no longer established himself in the court and no longer made profits for the people of the world. Then he returned to Lingnan, especially the border town of Baochang county. What can he do for the people of the border.

As a frontier fortress, most people are not deeply attached to the national boundaries. When they used to fight wars, they were captured by the state of Wu and Yue. It is possible that the families of these people became Wu Yue people. Originally, there were only two mountains separated, but the villages clearly connected became two countries. There was still marriage between these villages, and there was no national boundary 。

Therefore, Ji Xian's first thought is the cultivation of the common people here and the domestication of the basic concept of the country as a family.

Ji Xian said that he wanted to set up a college in the whole of Lingnan, so that the whole Lingnan could attach importance to the imperial examination system and study, improve the status and status of the scholar, and help the poor children.

After hearing this, Ruan Wenshan was very happy to be able to benefit the people of one side. If he thought about the responsibility Fu written by Ji Xian before, he would know his kindness.

It can be done, but when he saw Ji Xian's gray temples, he felt heavy and sighed and said, "Lord Ji, when he comes back from the capital, can you know the battle in Yanbei?"

Ji Xian's face was slightly Leng, and asked in doubt, "what does Ruan mean?"

Ruan Wenshan was silent for a while, but still summoned up his courage and said, "Duke of Lu, Shigong is the gospel of Yanbei people. Shigong's call commands the whole world and wins the hearts of the people. Why don't you put yourself into Shigong's account?"

Ruan Wenshan blurted out, but Ji Xian took a breath. He looked Ruan Wenshan carefully and asked for a long time, "are you from Shigong?"

Ruan Wenshan didn't think about it, so he said, "when the country is in chaos, there will be demons. The royal family in the capital city and the relatives' dictatorship have long existed in name. Shigong was a man of talent in the world. He was considerate of the sufferings of the people and won the hearts of the people. He was clear about the emperor's side and was upright in the emperor's face. This was the idea of the talented people in the world. What did Ji Gong think? "

First he was called Ji Daru, but at this time he took Ji Gong as his honorific name. Ji Xian thought of Wenjing when Duke of Lu was an official in the same Dynasty, and his family in Runan was a big surname from the state of Lu, which had been inherited for thousands of years. His family background was rich, which was not comparable to that of ordinary families.

Even today, the king of Dali is just a new comer, conforming to the nature.

"Ji Gong has always been suffering for the common people in the world and for himself. It's a blessing for the people. Why don't Ji Gong come out of the mountain again and choose a bright King to live in today's right year."

When Ji Xian heard this, he burst into laughter. There were only two people in the main room. Ji Xian slowly folded up his smile and looked at Ruan Wenshan with a serious look. He said, "thank you for your kindness. Please tell Ruan Zhizhou to reply. I have worked for the country and the people all my life. Now that I am in my 60s, I am no longer young and vigorous when I was an official in the same Dynasty, and I hope he can sympathize with him."

"If I talk about achievements in my life, there seems to be few things that historians can remember except for the common people. But there is one thing I believe in all my life, that is, the kindness of the emperor Dali Gaozu, which is the reason why I never give up. I only choose one master in my life, and I have no two minds."After hearing this, Ruan Wenshan sighed again and said, "Shigong said at the beginning. If you don't succeed, you can't force others into difficulties. If you want to come here, you should have known Ji Gong's mind, and the love of being an official in the same Dynasty is still there. No matter what, Shigong respects your old idea."

Ji Xian breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that Ruan Wenshan had not left yet, Ji Xian thought about it and said, "this year is also the year of rural examination for Ruan's son?"

When he mentioned it, he immediately nodded his head

"With all due respect, your eldest son had better not leave the examination room this year."

"Why?"

Ruan Wenshan was startled. When he was older, he would have to wait three years for the exam? What's more, there are still two questions about whether you can pass the exam.

Ji Xian then said, "when I came back from the capital, many of the old officials in the imperial court have resigned and returned to their hometown. For example, the people I worked for had a good death, but many of them have brought disaster to the fish pond. At this time, it is the time for the court to employ people. At that time, I'm afraid that the local government will have won the promotion and may be appointed to the local government ahead of time. If it only ends in the rural examination, it will be one of them Opportunity, but if you want to become an official after the list, it is not a good time. "
