The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 360
[Chapter 360 Chat]
Emperor Chu only thought for a moment and understood the reason why he did this. He shook his head and murmured: “This boy”
As the saying goes, when the birds are gone, a good bow is hidden; when a cunning rabbit dies, a lackey is cooked.
Since ancient times, few people who have achieved great success have had a good ending.
It must be precisely because of this that Fang Xiu, the kid, doesn’t cherish his feathers so much and despises his reputation, just to reassure the king.
Thinking of this, Emperor Chu sighed in his heart, raised his eyes, and looked at the three imperial doctors. , said: “I will leave the task of weighing the pros and cons of this book to you.
Within a month, I hope you can understand the content of this book and give me an explanation.”
The three imperial doctors saluted together: “Your Majesty Obey the order!”
At this moment, outside the palace, the young master of Fang Mansion, who was considered by Emperor Chu to have a low reputation, was drinking and having fun with Wu Yi in the Zuihua Tower.
This Zuihua Tower is not the Zuihua Tower of the Minister of Rites three months ago.
As early as when Yang Ming was imprisoned in the dungeon of the Kyoto Prefectural Government Office, Zuihua Pavilion was no longer able to operate. In the end, Fang Xiu only spent a thousand taels of silver to successfully acquire it.
The name is still the same as before, but everyone from the shopkeeper to the cook has been replaced by people from Chunfeng Tower. In other words, it is equivalent to a branch of Chunfeng Tower.
“Are you sure about this provincial examination?”
In the private room, Wu Yi took a sip of wine, looked at Fang Xiu, and asked.
Fang Xiu glanced at him and said: “It’s just a small provincial examination. With my talents, it is extremely easy to pass the Jie Yuan test. Do you think you are sure about it?”
Wu Yi rolled his eyes at him and picked up a piece of stuff. Po put the meat into his mouth, and then said: “The imperial examination is not just a review. It tests not only simple current affairs policies, but also the Four Books and Five Classics, as well as poems and songs.
I still don’t know about that little ink in your belly. I guess I may not be able to finish it. I really don’t know what you are thinking. He was obviously born in Wuxun, and now he is a general of the Shenji Camp, but he has to take part in some kind of imperial examination.”
Fang Xiu participated in the imperial examination as an official student. It was decided by the Emperor of Chu, but the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty didn’t know it. They thought it was the result of the “brain disease” of the prodigal son of Fang Mansion.
Therefore, Wu Yi could not understand his participation in the imperial examination.
Not to mention him, even Fang Xiu himself couldn’t understand it.
What does the old emperor mean?
Although he is already a military commander, he still has to take the imperial examination. From ancient times to the present, there is really no one else but himself!
Of course, at this time, Wu Yi couldn’t be at a disadvantage.
“Fart!”
Fang Xiu spat and cursed: “Young Master, what I am best at is the Four Books and Five Classics and poems and songs, but I am usually the most low-key person and disdain to participate in the poetry gatherings of so-called talented people.
Otherwise, Any song can be remembered forever and attract the attention of the capital.”
“Hahahahahaha”
Wu Yi heard this, but it seemed like he had heard some big joke.
They grew up together since childhood, and they are very familiar with each other. They know each other very well.
If he said that the young master of the Fang Mansion was unrivaled in eating, drinking and having fun, he would still believe it.
Poems and songs?
Four Books and Five Classics?
What does this have to do with him?
When Fang Xiu saw this, he shook his head, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip, not bothering to vent his anger.
Believe it or not, it’s up to him.
My poetry writing skills may not be very good, but this Chu State is not that Chu State either.
Many poems and songs have not yet been created. There is no such thing as a saint of poetry, a fairy of poetry, or a history of poetry!
After all, he also graduated with a master’s degree in Chinese language and literature. He has thousands of ancient poems stored in his mind. He can just pick them up whenever he wants to use them.
It was just disdain.
After Wu Yi finished laughing, he looked at Fang Xiu, his expression suddenly became a little serious, and said seriously: “By the way, let me tell you something.
The Hou Mansion has found out some clues about the previous assassins.”
Fang Xio was slightly startled, as if he didn’t understand the meaning of this sentence.
Seeing this, Wu Yi said, “He was the assassin who assassinated us. Some time ago, one of them was caught and imprisoned for a few days. He confessed that he was from the southwest.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Fang Xiu picked up the wine glass .
, took a sip gently, with a calm expression, as if he didn’t care about what he said.
When Wu Yi saw this scene, he was slightly surprised and said, “Aren’t you curious why those people want to assassinate us?”
Fang Xiu shook his head and said, “No matter what the reason is, leave such a matter to those old men. That’s fine, what does it have to do with us?”
This heartless look was a bit like that of the young master of the Fang Mansion.
Wu Yi showed a smile on his face and replied: “That’s true.”
During this time, many things happened in the capital.
These things seem to have nothing to do with each other, but if you connect them in series, you will find that these things are inextricably related to the same person.
This person happened to be his good brother-Fang Xiu.
In addition, after spending so many months in the pro-military army, he was still just a small captain.
But the person in front of him took less than three months to go from General Youzhonglang to the real general of the first battalion. It can be said that he has made rapid progress.
He could only watch helplessly as his brother, whom he had played with since childhood, became farther and farther away from him.
I even feel a little rusty.
It is precisely because of this that in his spare time, he would invite Fang Xiu to drink and connect with him.
“I don’t know what happened recently. Many dolphins in the capital are getting sick. The price of Dongpo meat has also increased. A piece of meat costs ten taels of silver.
Such a piece of meat costs twenty taels of silver. It’s really expensive. The price of mutton is much more expensive.
If this continues, I may not be able to afford Dongpo meat in the future.”
Wu Yi picked up a piece of Dongpo meat, shook his head and said casually.
When it comes to asking who among the distinguished sons of the capital is the most impoverished, if Wu Yi is ranked first, I am afraid no one would dare to be ranked second.
The money invested in the pro-military review has not been repaid until now.
The monthly salary, in addition to meeting daily expenses, is all used to pay off debts.
These few meals, even though it was said that he had invited them, were recorded in the account in the end. In the end, they still had to be accounted for by Fang Mansion.
When Fang Xiu heard this, he also picked up a piece of Dongpo meat and said, “Want to borrow money again?”
Wu Yi took a sip of wine and said, “We brothers are so clear about what we do. My money is yours.” “My money, your money.”
Before he could finish his words, Fang Xiu interrupted: “My money is still my money.”
Wu Yi stared at Fang Xiu and said, “You can’t bear to watch your brother starve. ?”
Fang Xiu thought for a while, nodded and said: “I can bear it.”
