The order value of the spring is already leafy, and the green is dark and red.

The ten-mile long pavilion in western Beijing, under the mottled columns, was silent in white clothes, staring motionlessly at the east.

Looking at the city in the distance, the corners of the pavilions can be seen unevenly, reflecting the prosperity of Yanjing City, sighing silently, and secretly saying: "Those tattered shantytowns are tightly covered. This is just like the 170 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, which has been riddled with ills and problems, but the empire is still huge and the appearance is still bright.

Shen Mo has a historical view beyond the times, and naturally understands that the rise and fall of national fortunes and the change of dynasties have their iron laws, and with the majesty of the Han and Tang Dynasties, it is still impossible to stop it, and now there are more problems, and the Ming Empire, which has a thinner foundation, can it really get rid of the fate of being replaced? Or is your ideal a ridiculous mantis arm as a car?

The rise and fall of the past dynasties, the vast feelings, the intersection of a moment, in the heart, made Shen Mo deeply feel his own insignificance and the difficulty of the road ahead, and he was a little depressed...... I thought that the purpose of coming here today was to bid farewell to Shen Lian, the teacher who was about to serve as the judge of Datong Prefecture, and quickly adjusted his emotions, not wanting the teacher to see him like this.

After Wang Shizhen's peace, Li Mo reluctantly agreed to send Shen Lian back to Zhejiang as an official, but to great surprise, Shen Lian did not agree, he took the initiative to go to the scribe's department and asked to go to Xuanda. Li Mo naturally would not dissuade him, and with a stroke of his pen, he sent Shen Lian to Xuandafu Baoan Prefecture as the state judge, that is, he set off, and there must be no mistake.

This made Shen Mo very depressed, he, as a student, had already done everything he could, but the teacher had other plans, and he could only cry out in vain! So he rushed to the front and came outside the city to bid farewell to his teacher.

The reason why I have to wait here is because it is customary for the prisoner to be released, and he must be escorted ten miles outside the city by the soldiers of the criminal department before he can be released.

When it was close to noon, Lu Bing personally sent Shen Lian to arrive, and when he saw Shen Mo's figure, he hugged his fists and said: "There will be a farewell for sending you thousands of miles, Mr. take care, if you are not comfortable living there, just send a letter, and I will think about transferring you elsewhere." ”

Shen Lian stared at Lu Bing deeply, and asked softly, "Can you tell me why, adults would rather offend the teacher than save me?" ”

Lu Bing looked at the silence in the distance, and smiled ashamedly: "Mr. is a frank gentleman, I can't sell my reputation, let's tell you the truth, the so-called auspicious Rui said that His Majesty instructed me to say it, so at that time, even if it wasn't for Mr., I had to work against Mr. Li." ”

"Oh......" Shen Lian nodded, and suddenly said, "I see." He sighed and said: "But no matter what, the adults are as kind to me as a mountain, and there is nothing to repay in this life, please accept my worship......" Then he lifted his shirt and knelt down to Lu Bing.

As soon as Lu Bing raised his hand, he stopped Shen Lian from continuing to kneel, and said with emotion: "Mr. is wrong, Yu Gong, you used to be my subordinate, if something happens, if I sit idly by, how can I convince my children?" Yu Private, you are the person I respect the most, you have taught me how to overcome the weakness of my heart, from you I know that morality is not life and death, but morality is higher than life and death! If I am lucky enough to not harm my children and grandchildren after Lu Bing's death, it is all thanks to your teachings, sir. ”

As he spoke, he also knelt down for Shen Lian and said, "You are my real teacher, for your sake, I am willing to offend anyone!" ”

Shen Lian hurriedly went to help him, but he didn't move, looked at Shen Lian fixedly and said, "You are no longer my subordinate now, I will make the original request again, can you officially accept me as an apprentice?" If you don't say yes, I won't be able to kneel long!" ”

Shen Lian looked back at Shen Mo, pondered for a moment with a solemn face, and nodded slowly: "My lord can afford it, just bow to me." ”

"Still kowtow." Lu Bing was overjoyed, kowtowed to Shen Lian three times, and shouted, "Teacher! ”

Shen Lian smiled bitterly and said, "You go back first, I'll say a few words to Humble Yan." ”

Lu Bing happily agreed: "Okay." He bowed to Shen Lian again, nodded to Shen Mo, and left with a group of men.

The ten-mile pavilion regained its tranquility, Gu Hong crossed the sky, and the master and apprentice looked at each other quietly.

Looking at the emaciated and old, but still straight-spine teacher, his silent eyes were red, and he called out in a trembling voice: "Teacher, ......" and knelt straight on top of the dust.

Shen Lian's expression was much more vivid than when he faced Lu Bing, and he looked at his student as if he was looking at the most perfect work in his life. The past came to his eyes one by one, and he still remembered that this kid was almost kicked out of the school by himself, but he stubbornly refused to admit defeat, and he also remembered that this kid in order not to be beaten by himself, he memorized things that others could only memorize in ten days and half a month, and desperately memorized them overnight, and stared at two black circles to go to school the next day.

Time flies so fast, five years have passed in a blink of an eye, when I said goodbye to myself two years ago, I was still a boy in white, and now I came to see myself off two years later, but he has become the champion of the world. This kind of sigh and emotion made Shen Lian, who had been devastated in prison and was not moved, unconsciously burst into tears.

Seeing the teacher crying, I endured the silence that didn't cry, and finally burst into tears.

Shen Lian felt a little faceless, so he turned his head over and said, "What is this for, get up quickly, the dignified champion is crying, and it will be passed out to make people laugh." ”

Shen sneered silently, and stood still in front of the teacher, although he was already half a head taller than Shen Lian, but somehow, he always felt that he was still the elementary school boy five years ago; And Shen Lian is still the majestic teacher.

Shen Lianzai looked at Shen Mo carefully, and said with a smile: "Yes, I have grown taller and more handsome, but I am still so thin." He smiled and asked, "Have you found a daughter-in-law?" ”

"It's already married," Shen Mo said softly: "I'm going to take leave to save my relatives before the year, and I'll go back to get married." Saying that, he couldn't help but be depressed: "How good Jiangnan is, why do you want to go to the border?" ”

Shen Lian smiled disapprerovingly: "Which girl has this blessing to marry my apprentice?" ”

"It's the only daughter of the Yin family of Baoyingfang." said silently: "My girl's name is Ruohan." ”

"Oh......" Shen Lian was a little dissatisfied, but at this time, he naturally wouldn't be disappointed, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that I can't see your wedding." ”

"So I brought her here and kowtowed to you, master." Shen Mo said softly.

"Brought?" Shen Lian was surprised: "If you don't stay in Shaoxing, why do you come so far?" ”

Shen Mo was sued and taken to the capital, Ruohan accompanied him for thousands of miles, unkempt along the way, and briefly said the matter of serving himself in Beijing, so that Shen Lian was finally moved and said: "It's a good girl, call me to meet the teacher." "If it's not a good girl, he's gone...... Shen Mo beckoned to the carriage parked in the distance, and Ruohan got off the car with a food box and kowtowed to Shen Lian to say goodbye.

Shen Mo also knelt down, and the two kowtowed to Shen Lian three times side by side, which could be regarded as making up for the regret of the teacher's absence from the wedding.

Shen Lian looked at this pair of beautiful people, they were really talented and beautiful, and they were very compatible, and he was very happy, and the original idea of feeling that the apprentice had been wronged had been thrown out of the clouds. He said repeatedly: "Okay, good ......" wanted to find some greeting gifts, but the sky was empty, and there was not even a copper plate.

Seeing the master's embarrassment, Ruohan said obediently: "Being recognized by the master is already Ruohan's happiest thing." ”

Shen Lian scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "When I settle down, the first thing I will do is to make up for you." ”

"Thank you, master." Shen Mo smiled, and asked Ruohan to put the contents of the food box on the stone table, and he got up to help the master sit down and talk in the long pavilion.

The master and apprentice first said goodbye, and then said silently: "Senior Brother Shen Xiang will definitely be able to participate in the University of Science and Technology Competition, apprentice, I won't let this matter go wrong again." ”

Shen Lian waved his hand and said: "Don't let him come out to be an official, forget it after the township exam, let him go back to guard his ancestral business, and cultivate and study heirlooms." ”

Shen Mo said softly: "It's just that Senior Brother may not be willing." ”

"Yes, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren." Shen Lian also sighed with emotion and said: "Try to persuade him, if you really want to take the road of official career, you have to take more care." ”

"That's for sure." Shen Mo smiled: "As long as the apprentice has this ability." ”

"Of course you have the ability." Shen Lian turned his head with a smile and said, "Ruohan, you go and rest first, and say a few words for the teacher and your father-in-law." ”

Ruohan answered softly and went back to the car.

"Do you know why Lu Bing has to be honored and worship me as a teacher?" After Ruohan left, Shen Lian lowered his voice and said.

"Hasn't he always admired you?" Shen Mo said softly.

"That's not the main reason." Shen Lian took a sip of the champion of his hometown and said: "The main reason is you, he is Xiang Zhuang Dancing Sword Ambition Pei Gong!" ”

"Huh?" Shen Mo said in disbelief: "What does it have to do with me?" ”
