The person in front of Cui Geng is not someone else, it is the unlucky guy Du Xian!

Thinking that at the beginning, he was the enemy of Cui Geng in the peony garden, and he felt that he would not be able to win the Jinshi no matter what, so he took refuge in Wu Sansi, preparing to make Cui Geng's reputation ruined.

However, Cui Geng didn't bother to card him on major matters at all, and directly took him to the last place in the Ming Jing exam.

This time, the person who was about to sue the emperor just now became his own master in the blink of an eye. In desperation, Du Xian directly turned against the water and betrayed Wu Sansi.

But Wu Zetian couldn't do anything about his own nephew, so he raised Wu Sansi high and fell gently, and to Du Xian, he directly gave a comment of "talented but not virtuous", and never used it.

Cui Geng originally thought that Du Xian had already returned to his hometown, but he never expected to meet him here, and said in surprise: "How did you end up in this field!" ”

"I ...... I ......"

When Du Xian heard this, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness, and suddenly, he knelt on the ground again, hugged Cui Geng's thighs and cried: "Teacher, the disciple has finally seen you again!" The disciple is looking forward to seeing you, just like a child looking forward to his parents, and looking forward to the clouds in a great drought! Woowoo woo ......"

He cried bitterly, extremely miserable, I didn't know, I thought that this grandson was beaten by seventeen or eighteen strong men.

Those people from the South City Inspection Department wondered and asked, "This nobleman, is this person a madman, or is he your student?" Would you like to help you get rid of him? ”

"This ......"

Cui Geng pondered carefully, and he won Du Xian, and the relationship between the two is that of master and apprentice. Although Du Xian was declared by Wu Zetian that he would never be used, the master-apprentice relationship still exists! You can't be an apprentice who is not good at mixing, and when you are a teacher, you don't recognize this relationship, right? So, in general, there is really nothing wrong with Du Xianam.

He nodded, "That's true." ”

The head of the South City Inspection Department swallowed and spat at the mouth, and said embarrassedly; "That'...... That, you even teach beggars, this is really educational, and the little one admires it. ”

What a mess this is, Cui Geng didn't bother to explain, waved his hand, and said, "There's nothing wrong here, you can step down." ”

"Whoa!"

The officials retreated, Song Xue'er didn't know who Du Xian was, and she also took out a money ticket from her sleeve pocket and said, "This is fifty yuan, you can take it and make a small deal, don't embarrass your teacher." ”

When Du Xian saw this woman following Cui Geng's side gracefully, he immediately understood that this was probably the teacher's concubine.

He immediately blessed his soul and said, "Thank you, Master!" ”

As soon as this master came out, Song Xue'er's heart was really sweeter than eating honey, and she immediately added fifty runs, and said: "The slave is not a master, it's just ...... He's just a little maid. Well, you can take this hundred dollars. ”

"Thank you, Master, I have received your heart, but I can't take this money."

"Why?"

Du Xian said: "Master Qiyu, I finally met the teacher, and the disciple should stay with the teacher and serve the teacher." ”

Song Xue'er was stunned by his continuous "master", and looked at Cui Gengdao: "Cui Langzhong, what do you see?" Or...... Just promised him? ”

What!

Am there still fewer people around me who can serve? It's clear that this guy is desperate and wants me to be his long-term meal ticket!

Cui Geng couldn't help but secretly slander.

Of course, no matter what, Du Xian once served as the prime minister of Tang Xuanzong in history, and he has talent. Such talents are willing to work for themselves, and Cui Geng has no reason to push talents out.

He nodded, "Get up." That one...... Take the money ticket for 100 yuan, go buy new clothes, take a shower, and come to see me in Baiwei Building. ”

"Yes, the disciple obeys."

Du Xian took the order and left, and Cui Geng took Li Bao'er and Song Xue'er to Baiweilou to eat wine. With this vacancy, Cui Geng introduced the origin of Du Xian.

As soon as the banquet at the top of the table was set up, Du Xian changed into a new suit and came to Cui Geng with great energy.

Cui Geng said: "Sit down, let's eat together?" ”

Du Xian said respectfully: "In front of the teacher, how can there be a disciple's seat?" You and your sister are eating, and the disciple is pouring wine and cloth dishes on the side. ”

"Hey, you, you......"

Cui Geng recalled the unruly and unruly Du Xian in the peony garden in the past, and he really felt like a world away. It seems that this guy has suffered a lot in the past half a year, and his temperament has been smoothed out.

His face sank slightly, and he said, "What is filial piety?" Those who obey are filial piety. If you want to sit, you will sit, what so much nonsense. ”

"Yes, follow the teacher's orders."

Du Xian sat down, carefully poured a glass of wine, and said, "Disciple, I wish the teacher good health......

Cui Geng waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't fix that empty head." Hungry these days, right? Yours you eat. ”

Du Xian swallowed heavily and said, "That's ...... The disciple began. ”

Immediately, he picked up a pair of chopsticks and feasted on them. is as straight as the wind and clouds, not letting the giant whale absorb water, and in an instant, a table of wine and food has been eaten and wiped clean.

What is very amazing is that Du Xian sat upright during the whole process, with a strict demeanor, except for the action too fast, there was no rudeness.

Cui Geng called another table of wine and food, ate and chewed slowly, and asked, "Are you full?" Now, tell me how you ended up in this field, right? ”

Du Xian's face darkened, and he said, "Alas, it's really hard to say. At the beginning, the disciple's behavior was poor, and he was decreed by His Majesty, and he was not used. Supposedly, I should go back to my hometown to farm and study, and I will live for the rest of my life, but the problem is ...... I don't have the face to reply. ”

"But because of His Majesty's comment?"

"Not only that, since the disciple's father resigned, my Du family has fallen into the middle. Thanks to the help of my family and friends, I was able to prepare for the imperial examination without distractions. Before the disciples came, they once said to them that if they were in the Ming Sutra, in order to prevent favoritism and fraud in the world, they would never accept their gifts again. Not only that, but the money borrowed in the past will be slowly returned one by one. ”

Flutter~~

Song Xue'er couldn't help laughing out loud and said, "You are in the Ming Scripture and have been removed from the Ming Scripture, but you are not in the Ming Scripture." Isn't that an oath? No wonder you don't have the face to go back. ”

Li Bao'er said: "Why are you swearing that if you have nothing to do?" Isn't this self-inflicted? ”

Du Xian's face was flushed, and he said: "The disciple was indeed too hypocritical at the beginning, and he really regretted not being at the beginning. ”

Cui Gengdao: "Then if you don't return to your hometown, what are you doing these days?" ”

"The imperial examination has been completed, the tributes are among the jinshi, the hometown of the returnee, the peony garden, I can't live anymore, just in the Naxian Pavilion, eating and drinking. The coil gradually ran out, and later, I pawned the clothes again......"

The so-called Naxian Pavilion is a pavilion of the imperial court, which is specially for those who have been raised in the Jinshi Ming Sutra and those who have not yet been awarded the official position. To live in this pavilion, the imperial court will give a certain percentage of subsidies, which is much cheaper than living outside.

Du Xian was stripped of his fame, and he was said to be unqualified to live. But his father Du Chengzhi used to be an official to the sky, and he was also a high-ranking official in the imperial court, so no one must have taken him seriously about this little thing.

"Wait." Cui Geng wondered, "Why don't you find an errand in Luoyang?" ”

"The disciple also wants to ah, the problem is that people know that I am Du Xian, and they don't need me. In the past few days, I have been wandering around Nanshi to see if there are any suitable errands, but it really can't be done, even the second shop is successful. Today, the disciple is hungry and really has no choice, seeing so many beggars begging, he gritted his teeth and was ruthless, wanting to fish in troubled waters! ”

"Haha, I ended up touching Cui Langzhong?" Li Bao'er smiled: "I don't know if you are unlucky, or too lucky." ”

"It's the disciple's luck, eh...... The teacher's luck was also good. ”

Cui Geng was stunned and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Du Xian said: "Recently, near the Naxian Pavilion, a person named Qian Zheng came, I'm afraid it will be bad for you!" ”
