After the apprenticeship ceremony began, Du Ke sat in the upper seat, with Grandpa Qin, Father Qin, and Shen Lixian on one side. Because of this family matter, even though Shen Lixian had a high status, he could not sit in front of Grandpa Qin and Qin Fang. ‌Qin Shouye and Qin Shoucheng ‌Niu Dan stood behind their grandfather and Qin's father.

On the other side, Grandma Qin, Mother Qin, Qin Siya and Qin Qiuya stood behind them.

Then, Qin Fang and Yang Haiyan came in. After entering, Yang Haiyan sat next to Qin's mother, and Qin Fang began to bow four times.

The four prostrations naturally require four prostrations, four consecutive prostrations, but each prostration is very particular. Only the hands and feet are particular. When kneeling to prostrate, which foot should be kneeled first is also very particular. Another example is when getting up. , start with that foot first.

When performing four prostrations, kneel down with your left foot first, then bend your foot next.

But when I got up, it was the opposite. The one who got up first had the right foot, and the one who got up second had his left foot.

Every time you pray after bowing your hands, you can do it in a hurry, but in a calm way.

Fortunately, Qin Fang had already found someone to teach him these four rites before Du Ke came. He was taught by a master from the county college, who was a student of Master Confucius. He was extremely familiar with these etiquettes and was very particular about teaching them. Every detail is meticulous and every movement is extremely standard.

When Qin was out of school, everything he did was in good order.

놊In the past, the four prostrations were performed at home, but there were no students who were cautious when doing the four prostrations to Master Confucius. There were still singing officers at that time.

This is what I pay attention to at home.

After Qin released him for four prayers, Du Ke gave him a knife.

Normally, the teacher gives the students the Four Treasures of the Study, but Qin Fang is a general, and the Four Treasures of the Study are also a waste, so Du Ke gave him the weapon. 놊‌놊 said that although Du Ke accepted the apprentice this time, although the emperor ordered it, he did it sincerely and put his thought into it. However, the four treasures of the study were ruined.

To a general, a good weapon is like having an extra life. The four treasures of the study are of no use in Qin Fang's hands, but a good knife will be useful.

Although Qin Fang has never been exposed to good weapons, when he caught the knife, he could feel its uniqueness from the strength in his hand.

Du Ke said: "‌‌, do you like it?" This question... Even if you like it, and the elders give it to you, you can only say you like it.

But if Du Ke asked this, he must have guessed that Qin Fang would like it. Why is it determined? Because this is a good knife.

Qin Fang pulled out the knife from the scabbard, and a cold light flashed from the tip of the knife.

Shen Lixian was the first to say: "Good knife."

Everyone looked at Shen Lixian, and then Qin Fang also held his hand. Speaking of which, only when holding the knife, 놛꺳 knew that it was a good knife, but the reason why it was so obvious was that I think the knife is good and I know how much I know about the knife. ‌놆...This ‌ knife is really heavy.

Duko raised his eyebrows: "Do you recognize it?"

Shen Lixian said: "It is said that before the founding of the Qi Kingdom, the ancestors of the Du family had a big sword in their hands when they accompanied Taiyuan Ancestor to fight against the sky. However, after the founding of the Qi Kingdom, the descendants of the Du family abandoned martial arts and followed Wen. That sword was No one has ever seen it again. I also heard that there was an inscription written by Tai Yuanzu, do you know?"

Qin Fang didn't think about the origin of this knife. If it was true, then he could have it: "Teacher, this knife..."

Du Ke waved his hand: "놊놆This‌. Do you know the origin of Qiguo?"

"This..." Qin Fang hesitated for a moment and said truthfully, "The previous dynasty was corrupt, and Taiyuanzu rose up with his subordinates..."

Du Ke interrupted: "Everyone knows this, and it is recorded in history books, but do you know what we rely on to fight?" Du Ke asked Qin Fang, ignoring Shen Lixian, "Li Xian, can you Know?"

Taiyuanzu: the founding emperor of Qi State.

Shen Lixian shook his head: "I really know."

At this time, Yang Haiyan said: "Tomb robbery."

As soon as she said this, everyone looked at her. Even Du Ke had surprise in his eyes: "How do you say this? Where did you hear it?"

This is not actually because Yang Haiyan knew the plot, and it was not mentioned in the plot. When Yang Haiyan first discovered that she had read books, she had read many books about Qi Guo, including laws and miscellaneous notes. When it came to Yunxiang County and Liang Wang, she read it from miscellaneous notes. The same goes for tomb robbing.

However, this kind of thing was so glorious, so she didn't mention it to Qin Fang.

Du Ke asked, and Yang Haiyan said frankly: "I have read miscellaneous notes, and it is mentioned in the miscellaneous notes that Taiyuan Ancestor was born as an original citizen. His family had some permanent property, and he could barely be considered a landlord. He led the uprising with his subordinates. , I don’t have any weapons in my hands, but someone mentioned that the tomb robbers were digging for weapons. Generally speaking, the tomb owners who have weapons are of average status, so the weapons are bound to be inferior. What is written in the miscellaneous notes is also known to be true or false.”

Du Ke looked at Yang Haiyan with admiration: "This matter is indeed true."

Shen Lixian: "But there is no record in the history books."

Du Ke: "History books are written by people, and they can naturally be changed. Moreover, the history books you see may not be true history books. What Xiangjun said is indeed false. People with deep family backgrounds basically I know that the royal family has never prohibited others from mentioning it, because no matter how Taiyuanzu got up, he ended the corrupt rule of the previous dynasty and gave the old surname a chance to breathe. What I want to say is that back then, I was the ancestor of the Du family. That knife also came from this way.

The sword had been with the ancestor for half a year, and Taiyuanzu had written words on it, so the ancestor gave up the sword and used it again, and it was enshrined in the Du family ancestral hall from then on. After that, the ancestors exhausted their efforts and found all the materials to make the same knife. The blade and weight are exactly the same as that one. Just find the materials and make the knife. The ancestors are old and have the knife. Therefore, this knife has been in the Du family's warehouse and has not been opened yet.

Speaking of which, this may also be a coincidence. From then on, the Du family never produced a general. Even though there were younger brothers who practiced martial arts, they also liked to play with swords, but no one liked to use knives. So, this knife is given to you. "

Qin Fang didn't think about this sword and the wait. He knelt down again: "Thank you teacher, I will definitely guard Qiguo with this sword and promote the glory of Qiguo."

Duko nodded: "Okay."

Next, everyone started to have breakfast. After breakfast, Qin Fang took Du Ke and Shen Lixian to the Beast Taoist Temple. Yang Haiyan ordered people to prepare lunch boxes for them. The pastries, noodles, and tea in the lunch boxes were good for filling their stomachs. They were afraid that they would be hungry after climbing for an hour.

Pastries 놆께 cake, mung bean cake, noodles 놆 cold noodle, cold cucumber, tea 놆 mung bean soup. These were placed in an ice bucket and asked Qin Fang to carry them.

After Qin Fang and others left, Yang Haiyan was about to start the evening banquet. The apprenticeship ceremony was performed in the morning, and relatives and friends were invited to dinner in the evening. What's more, Du Ke was here on official business and wanted to meet local officials, so he decided to take advantage of the banquet in the evening.

Fortunately, there are not many officials in Yunxiang County, only the magistrate of Yang County in the seventh rank, the family of Bai County Cheng in the eighth rank, and the chief secretary of Song Dynasty in Congpin. Finally, Wei Ting, Qin Sanshu and his wife.

Yang Haiyan listed the guests separately, and asked County Magistrate Yang, County Magistrate Bai, and Master Song to send them their invitations. Third Uncle Qin and Third Aunt Qin sent guards and carriages over.

After these people made arrangements, Yang Haiyan thought about it and went to Liuxinyuan again: "Mom."

Mother Qin and Grandma Qin were lucky to have Yang Haiyan here, but they still knew what to do. Now that Yang Haiyan was here, they seemed to be waiting to eat. Seeing Yang Haiyan coming over, Qin's mother hurriedly asked: "Yanyan, you have worked hard these days. If there is any need for my mother's land, just say it." Qin's mother was also embarrassed. This is more difficult for ordinary people. In our village, our mother-in-law should be helping us out, but our daughter-in-law is so busy. But there is nothing we can do, everyone knows.

Yang Haiyan said: "Mom, don't worry, I've worked hard. Besides, I'm willing to work a little harder for my husband's convenience."

Hearing what Yang Haiyan said, Qin's mother couldn't help laughing and said, "You kid..."

Yang Haiyan: "Mom, I'm coming over right now. I want to ask you. There will be a dinner party at my house on the evening of the day to celebrate my husband's apprenticeship. I invited my third uncle and my third aunt to come over. I'm thinking of my third uncle. Are you here? Do you want to invite me over?”

When it came to the third brother who was in charge of the family, Qin's mother didn't even think about it: "No, let them stay over there." There were guards watching over the third brother, who originally wanted to work hard. My son, now that he knows how to exchange his own labor for food, Mother Qin can run away without even thinking about them coming to the house. In fact, in the field of the military camp, the third brother wanted to throw the tadpoles and run away, but was caught by the guards.

When Yang Haiyan heard what she said, she smiled and said, "I'll ask someone to send some delicious food to my third uncle Tadpole later. It's okay that he's here. Since they're all in Yunxiang County, what's the food?" There is always less.”

When Qin's mother heard this, she immediately beamed and said, "Hey, you can make the decision." It was one thing for her to dislike her brother and nephew, but she felt comfortable with others disliked her. Now she was happy to see that her daughter-in-law was still polite to her brother and nephew and thought about them. Regardless of whether the daughter-in-law has a real relationship or a superficial friendship, at least on her face, she will be happy if she can still have this friendship. Qin's mother sighed again, this daughter-in-law is really well married. When they talked about marrying a wife, Qin's mother thought about Third Aunt Qin, so she pulled Yang Haiyan and asked in a loud voice: "Yanyan, is there anyone around A Fang who hasn't said they're married?"

Yang Haiyan was stunned. Seeing Qin's mother suddenly asking this, her heart tightened. Will she be engaged to Si Ya now? "Mom, why are you asking this? Mo 놊놆Si Ya..."

Qin's mother hurriedly said: "놊놆놊놆. Your third aunt and third uncle, they want to tell Sanya who is around A Fang, thinking that with A Fang, the guys will definitely bully San Ya." ‌It can also win people over to Ah Fang. I know how good it is, so let me ask you, what do you think?”
