The Road to Dominance in All Worlds, Starting from Brother Qiang

But when Xu Xian bowed to him again and made a posture of waiting for the exam, Murong Bai did not ask Xu Xian the first time, but corrected his words first. Xu Xian said, "I'm not your husband yet."

"If you can answer my question later, it won't be too late for you to call me Mr. again."

Chapter 1303 Sir and Disciple

Chapter 1303

Murong Bai did not directly respond to Xu Xian's title of "Sir", which made Xu Xian feel uneasy again, and involuntarily, trembled slightly again.

But fortunately, he is very clear about his situation today. Because his parents died early, even though he is still young, Xu Xian still has enough tenacity hidden in his temperament.

Therefore, he still tried his best not to show his timidity, and after another salute to Murong Bai, he only said this short sentence in a low voice, but said, "Xu Xian made a note."

All the slight changes in Xu Xian's expression failed to hide from Murong Bai's eyes. Murong Bai couldn't say he was dissatisfied with Xu Xian's response, but more, he was a little surprised.

This Xu Xian, it seems...isn't he a completely useless guy?

As Murong Bai thought about it, he couldn't help giving Xu Xian a high look.

Immediately, she nodded slightly at him, and replied, "Yes."

After nodding and smiling at Li Gongfu and Xu Jiaorong, he turned his gaze back to Xu Xian and asked slowly, "Then... shall we start now?"

During these three months, Xu Xian stayed at home and devoted himself to studying hard, and indeed, this period of time was not wasted.

Murong Bai didn't ask too much of him, as long as Xu Xian memorized by rote, memorized the complete Analects of Confucius and the annotations he wrote on that book, Xu Xian didn't need to understand too much.

Therefore, the questions asked at this time are also the contents that have been written in the book long ago.

Just now when Murong Bai asked Xu Xian if he could memorize this Analects backwards, although Xu Xian hesitated a little, he still nodded at Murong Bai and said yes.

He wasn't lying.

At this time, facing Murong Bai's continuous questioning, Xu Xian was nervous at the beginning, and he stumbled a little in the process of answering the questions.

But after he answered a few questions and received Murong Bai's praise and comfort, Xu Xian finally let go of it completely, and only treated today as a quiz between his sister Xu Jiaorong and the words he answered from his mouth. It is becoming more and more fluent.

So, in the end, as Xu Xian answered more and more questions, not only did he have a confident look on his face, but Li Gongfu and Xu Jiaorong, who were still full of apprehensions, were also very nervous at this time. There is a smile on the face.

Of course Murong Bai also laughed.

Although Xu Xian's performance is enough to see that he is indeed too rigid when it comes to reading, but what does it matter?

Murong Bai chose to teach him to read, not because he wanted to teach Xu Xian to be the number one scholar.

As long as he can succeed in the examination, fulfill Xu Xiucai's wish for Xu Xian before his death, and make him qualified to be an official, then Murong Bai has already helped Xu Xian change his life.

This kind of kindness is not much different from Xu Xian's kindness to save Bai Suzhen from the old snake catcher when he was a little shepherd boy a few generations ago.

"good."

So, after Xu Xian finished his answer, meeting Xu Xian's worried eyes, Murong Bai only smiled and said these two words to him.

Then, they rushed to Xu Xian, Li Gongfu, Xu Jiaorong and his wife again, and reiterated the promise he had made to Xu Xian earlier.

After I finished this year's autumn exam, I asked Xu Xian to come to my side to study.

After receiving Murong Bai's promise, Li Gongfu, his wife and Xu Xian all beamed with joy because of their inner happiness, and kept saying thank you words to Murong Bai.

However, Li Gongfu is a member of the Gongmen, unlike Xu Jiaorong and Xu Xian, he knows many things about scholars.

So in fact, as early as the very beginning, there was a worry in his heart.

In Li Gongfu's mind, after taking part in this year's Autumn Chamber, Murong Bai must go to the capital, take part in the next year's Spring Exam, and come back with a scholarship.

After all, for scholars, no matter when, the word of fame is the first thing.

Therefore, Murong Bai obviously couldn't keep Xu Xian by his side to teach. If Xu Xian can only study with Murong Bai for a few short months, no matter how outstanding Murong Bai's talents and learning are, Li Gongfu He didn't realize how much a brain like Xu Xian could learn from Murong Bai.

The worries in Li Gongfu's heart were not unreasonable, therefore, after the joy in his heart faded, Li Gongfu finally made up his mind to try to make Murong Bai unhappy, and asked Murong Bai about his worries.

However, to Li Gongfu's surprise, Murong Bai didn't show much anger when he heard his slightly offensive question at this time.

Instead, he calmly comforted him and said, "Brother Gongfu, don't worry, since I am determined to accept Xu Xian, then I will definitely work hard on his study."

"Besides..."

Murong Bai smiled and pointed to Bai Suzhen beside him, and said, "Even if I went to the capital to rush for the exam, wouldn't my wife still be there?"

"Don't lie to the two of you."

Murong Bai smiled and said, "It means that my wife is not a man, otherwise, with my wife's talents and learning, even if she is the number one scholar, it is easy to get, so how can I have any business?"

After Murong Bai said these words, even Xu Xian who was standing aside secretly raised his eyes, not to mention Li Gongfu and his wife, they all turned their surprised eyes on Bai Suzhen.

Although it had been agreed long ago that he would be Xu Xian's nominal half-master, he never expected Murong Bai to say such a long paragraph suddenly.

My family members know about their own family affairs, and although Bai Suzhen felt a little funny in her heart for such praise of Murong Bai, she didn't show any flaws on her face, she just gave Murong Bai a reproachful look, and then acted Putting on a reserved appearance like a lady from a great family, she smiled softly at Li Gongfu and his wife, which seemed to acquiesce to Murong Bai's remarks.

Then, the astonishment in the eyes of Li Gongfu and his wife became much stronger.

However, what Li Gongfu and his wife didn't know was that from the beginning to the end, Murong Bai never thought about leaving Hangzhou to go to the capital to participate in some imperial examinations.

——After all, in Murong Bai's original plan, he didn't think that he would go all the way to black on the road of imperial examination.

The imperial examination is just a means for him to establish himself in this world of mortals.

As long as he can get the name of Jie Yuan, even if Murong Bai doesn't continue to take the exam, it will be enough for him to gain a lot of prestige among scholars, so that people such as Liang Wang and Hangzhou prefect dare not underestimate him .
