Chapter 46: Concerns from Zi Ang

Chen Zi'ang looked at the Shaolang in front of him with a strange expression. The younglang looked strange, and his eyes were mixed with emotions, a little excited, a little admiration, and a little regretful.

Chen Zi'ang was very sensitive to the capture of emotions. He couldn't figure out why a young man who had met him for the first time showed so many complex colors, and why he stared at him in a daze, so that he called him several times but never came back to his senses.

Zhu Xiu was shocked all over and woke up from Chen Zi'ang's confusing cry, scratching his head and smirking as if he was embarrassed.

Chen Zi'ang twisted the three-inch black beard under his jaw, his pair of stern black pupils showed a little curiosity, and he laughed in harmony, "Why are you stunned when you see me?"

Zhu Xiu laughed dryly, feeling guilty, she couldn't say, "Brother, I grew up reading your "Song of the Youzhou Tai" since I was a child. Now that I have seen a real person, I'm not allowed to sigh and admire the talented man?"

Besides, according to the historical trajectory, in two or three years, your brother will be unjustly killed by the Wu family in prison. Am I sad in advance?

Zhu Xiu thought for a while, looked up and bowed his hands and said seriously: "It's true that the students have admired Chen Shaofu for a long time. Now they can listen to Chen Shaofu's admonition in person, which is really unhappy!"

"Oh?" Chen Zi'ang smiled slightly, "You have been living in the countryside for a long time and know the origin of this official? Well, if this is the case, I would like to ask you what articles have you read? How do you know about this official?"

Zhu Xiu was stunned for a moment, and saw Chen Zi'ang smiling, and he was secretly depressed. Why are you, a person, not playing according to common sense?

I am just expressing my politeness and pleasingness according to international practices. Why are you taking it seriously?

However, Zhu Xiu was not panicked, his mind turned, and thought for a while, and said with respect: "The students have read many of the books written by Chen Shaofu. The most impressive one is that Chen Shaofu wrote a letter to the interests of military and national affairs in the first year of Chuigong (685)."

Chen Zi'ang's smile became more and more strange, "Let's listen to it in a few words!"

Zhu Xiu pretended to ponder, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "'I am worried that your Majesty will be exhausted by the people of the world, and I am afraid that I will not be able to get a place. I also invented an edict to surrender nine ambassadors to inspect the states of the world, and to prosecute and demote them to seek disasters. It is very favorable. The people of the world are very lucky. I think it is beautiful and not good enough, so why do you say it?'..."

Zhu Xiu shook his head and recited most of the article "Advances and Adversities of Military and National Affairs" with just a word. This article was the first important memorial written by Chen Zi'ang after he passed the imperial examination and was personally awarded the title of Zheng of Lintai after he was awarded the title of Emperor Wu.

"Okay, okay, that's OK!" Chen Zi'ang listened to the boy's clear voice, and seemed to remember the vigor of that year again in a trance. He sneered and shook his head, and sighed softly.

Zhu Xiu smacked his lips as he was still unfulfilled, and he said eagerly: "Students have also read Chen Shaofu's articles such as "Ode to the Great Zhou Receiver" and "Reply to the Criminal Code". If Shaofu doesn't believe it, students can come silently!"

Chen Zi'ang smiled and said, "No need", and looked at Zhu Xiu's eyes with a little closer.

It seems that this Shaolang did not lie, nor did he pretend to be polite and flatter, but he had really read many of his articles.

A recognized talented official like Chen Zi'ang, whenever he was in Shendu, he would be copied and circulated every time he gave a memorial and circulated, and would be appreciated and learned by the scholars of Shendu.

Therefore, if someone in God can recite his articles, Chen Zi'ang would not find it strange at all.

What surprised him was that, in the place like Zhushan County, Fangzhou, which is seven or eight hundred miles away from Shendu, why was a rural student so familiar with his articles?

Besides, this was done more than ten years ago?

Chen Zi'ang pondered, but he didn't expect that his influence was so wide. While he was a little excited, he was also a little frightened. So many scholars studied his articles and studied his governing philosophy, which made him feel deeply responsible.

"I heard that Ling Zun was the Fangzhou Township Tribute in the first year of Tianshu?" Chen Zi'ang suddenly asked.

Zhu Xiu instantly understood the meaning beyond his words, and hurriedly bowed with a solemn look on his face, "No, right! My father also admired Chen Shaofu for a long time. Chen Shaofu's masterpiece was taught to his students! My father always said: 'My articles in the Tang Dynasty inherited the style of Xu Yu, and the ancestors of the world, and Chen Boyu became elegant and upright! He also said that Chen Boyu was generous and brave, and said bluntly that he dared to advise. He had the comparison of the Shang Dynasty, and the Wei Xuan of Emperor Taizong became the legacy of the emperor!'"

Chen Zi'ang looked moved, and stood up outside the court and bowed, murmured, "I really don't dare to take what Ling Zun said! Alas~ I never expected that there would be people like Ling Zun who are like Ling Zun, great wise, great wise! If Ling Zun is here, Chen will definitely be a close friend with him! What a pity~ It's a pity~"

Zhu Xiu sniffed, raised his cuffs to wipe the corners of his eyes, and said with a slight look on his face: "The students' knowledge is not as good as my father's knowledge. If I can get admitted to the county school, it is also the blessing of my father in heaven! Today I can talk to Chen Shaofu, miss my father at first, and the earnest teachings are still in my ears. If my father knows, he will definitely be happy for the students!"

Chen Zi'ang patted Zhu Xiu's shoulder as comforting and said in a harmonious voice: "You will inherit Zhu Juren's knowledge, so he will definitely not be insulted! Don't worry, in the county school in the future, I will personally supervise your studies!"

Zhu Xiu was stunned, raised his head and looked confused, "Shaoye Chen's words... Could it be that he took them seriously?"

Chen Zi'ang's smile became more kind and kind, "In the future, you can call someone an uncle in private. Your father praised someone so much and had the same governing philosophy as someone. He only regretted that he could not get to know him in his life and drank and talked happily. Just as you were studying in the county, he would have the opportunity to urge you on your father's study, not to teach you all, but also ensure that you have the ability to achieve the ability to save the exam!"

The strength of Chen Zi'ang patting his shoulder was slightly heavier, as if showing his determination and his attitude.

Zhu Xiu was stunned and said in his heart, "After a man, you're bragging!"

Chen Zi'ang looked at Zhu Xiu with beautiful eyes and his favor became stronger and he smiled and said, "In the future, in addition to listening to lectures in the county school, I will also take time to tutor you personally. I also have a disciple who is about the same age as you. In the future, you two will listen to a lecture together!"

Zhu Xiu forced himself to smile and thanked him. He stuttered: "I don't know who my uncle's disciple's surname is?"

Chen Zi'ang smiled and said, "His name is Chang Wuming, which is also a family source of knowledge. I will introduce you to you next day. Your father is also a well-educated person. Since you inherit his academic style, you will not be able to accept you as your disciple. Haha, I still feel a little regretful, and I missed such an excellent disciple as you..."

Chen Zi'ang encouraged him a few more words and let Zhu Xiu go.

Zhu Xiu walked out of the county government with a heavy footsteps with a depressed look on his face. He originally wanted to have a relationship with Chen Zi'angla, and continued to implement the truant plan of the village school in the future.

Unexpectedly, I backfired, but the relationship was formed. I had a name on one-on-one teaching, and I couldn’t escape even if I wanted to!
