Wei Changying and Song Zaishui sat down in the car and lowered the soft crocodile curtains. Then Wei Changfeng ordered the guard: "Go and invite someone to see them."
Since that man wanted to climb a mountain and view the monument, he would not refuse Wei Changfeng's invitation.
Seeing a white robe arriving with the guards, the captain of the guard Ying and Song Zaishui in the car were both a little surprised: "White robe? Are they common people?" White robes are not exaggerated, so they are sold at a low price and have always been worn by common people. Many times, the word "white clothes" directly refers to the common people.
Both women knew how strict this dynasty respected the nobles and suppressed the common people, and it was not impossible that no one among the common people served as an official in the dynasty. However...the most prominent and powerful positions will never be their turn.
Moreover, even if the common people have some permanent property, they are far inferior to the nobles. Without foundation and rich wealth, how could they calm down and cultivate their style
Therefore, nobles should pay attention to their manners and manners - it has always been between nobles.
However, things in the world are unpredictable, and there are always a very small number of people, although they are from humble backgrounds, but their behavior is completely natural and untainted by the fireworks of the world.
This kind of person can only sigh about his talent.
Could this be such a person this time
As the person got closer, he was indeed dressed in white, a symbol of common people's status. It was slightly stained with dust and was not very clean. The hem of the robe was even stained with a few specks of mud from the rain.
But the guard did not lie. This man indeed had extraordinary grace.
His attire is very simple, with a white robe, a green bamboo crown on his head, and wooden clogs on his feet. This kind of simple and humble attire is the most common dress worn by scholars from poor families.
But such plain clothing was tinged with an ethereal and lofty meaning for no apparent reason on the young man who called himself Xinyong.
Xinyong has a handsome appearance and fair skin, but he is still far away from being so handsome and fair that people will be moved. But he walked step by step on the muddy ground in white clothes and a bamboo crown, with a calm expression, which made everyone fascinated. I feel that he should be a high scholar, or even a famous scholar.
This kind of demeanor makes people fall in love at first sight, and they naturally admire and even look up to her... Even Wei Changfeng and Wei Changying had to sigh, because they had only seen it in Wei Zhenghong.
No wonder the guard wanted to tell the owner that this person who asked to climb a mountain to view the monument was unusual.
He had already planned to make good friends with the disciples of famous families. Now that he was a commoner, Wei Changfeng immediately started to recruit. He was standing in front of the carriage waiting for the visitor to come and salute - considering his big house in the Wei family. As a direct grandson, the other party only dressed in white, so doing so was not considered arrogant. However, he was so impressed by the visitor's demeanor that he took two steps to greet him and took the lead in exchanging greetings.
Upon seeing this, Wei Changying looked away and whispered: "This person is really good. I don't know if he came here on purpose today?" If he was a member of a famous family, she would believe that the other party had indeed just caught up with Xiaozhushan's blockade, but since He is a child from a poor family who thinks he is talented but has no aspirations, or is unwilling to take the initiative to seek a meeting with a wealthy family. He deliberately chooses this opportunity to approach Wei Changfeng in order to find a way out... Although there is a suspicion of self-importance, most people who do this are doing it for themselves. A person who boasts extraordinary talents.
Relative to their talents, noble families would not care to give them dignity.
So Wei Changying only said this, but he didn't look down on Xinyong because of it. Song Zaishui didn't pay much attention to this new chant and said: "This man is just a bit more elegant than my uncle. It turns out that my uncle is so romantic! My grandmother said that when my aunt came out of the court, all the six clans wanted to get married, but my aunt insisted on only marrying To uncle."
"My father is indeed an extraordinary man. He is better than this man, but his body and bones..." Hearing this, Wei Changying felt proud and regretful at the same time.
Song Zaishui comforted him: "Isn't my uncle doing well now? Although he is still a little weak and doesn't like to make noise, there is nothing wrong with the huge Ruiyu Hall. And maybe he will be fine in a few days."
If only this was the case... Wei Changying's heart sank when he thought of Ji Qubing - his mind was far away.
When she came to her senses, Wei Changfeng had already ordered the team to set off.
Wei Changying called his younger brother to the car and asked, "Where was that man just now?"
Wei Changfeng said: "He went to the mountain to figure out the inscription."
"how?"
Of course, this is to ask Wei Changfeng how he feels about this person, whether this person's talents are worth winning over, and whether the winning over is successful - Wei Changfeng said with a smile: "That guard has made a great contribution today. This person is well-spoken and has subtle insights. He is also a commoner, so he is suitable to be recruited into the clan... I have told him that if he has seen the inscription and wants to see the original work again, he can come to Ruiyu Hall to find me. "
Wei Changying was a little surprised: "You even agreed to him the original copy of "Zhushan Xiaoji"? You need to tell your grandfather about this."
"How can you give it to him?" Wei Changfeng said, "I mean I can show it to him, of course at our home."
He pondered, "I thought this person would come to my door in a few days. Otherwise, why would he come here today and ask to go up the mountain to see the inscription?"
Obviously Wei Changfeng also believes that Xinyong's purpose is to speculate that the inscription is false, but to approach him is true. In this case, even if this person does not agree to his solicitation now, he is just playing hard to get... just trying to show off.
Most truly talented people don't bother to grovel, let alone agree as soon as they are recruited - they might as well take the initiative to submit their services!
When recruiting talents, famous families are not tired of the courtesy of virtuous corporals, because as long as it is within their tolerance, this just creates a story that a certain famous family values virtuous talents.
So today Xinyong said goodbye to Wei Changfeng and climbed the mountain to see the inscription... Neither sister nor brother was surprised. If Wei Changfeng had a long talk with him and then took him back to the Wei family, that would make people suspicious!
Wei Changfeng had already received Wei Huan's instruction on the ways of imperial service. He was not in a hurry and just followed him to Xiaozhu Mountain to figure out the reason for the inscription. He promised to let the other party see the original "Little Notes of Zhushan", which not only took into consideration the other party's face. , and showed his generosity - anyway, it is just for the other party to have a look in the family, and there is no loss to Wei Changfeng. However, the authentic work itself is extremely precious, and not everyone, even the descendants of the Wei family, is qualified to do it. seen.
For ordinary people like Xinyong, this promise is not only a great temptation, but also a good sincerity and compliment.
Wei Changying nodded: "In this case, there is a high probability that this person is available." The other party was interested first, and Wei Changfeng was humble and promising. This person will basically be Wei Changfeng's person from now on... Although Wei Changying Changfeng already has Wei Qing by his side, and Mrs. Song has also taken a fancy to Mo Binwei, who has not been found so far. It is not that he does not have talent to assist him, but these are all prepared by the elders. If this new Yong becomes successful, it will be the first Wei Qing. Changfeng has attracted the talents himself.
Even if he borrows the name of the Wei family, it will still be proof of Wei Changfeng's ability and demeanor.
Wei Changfeng, who was already fifteen years old and the only male heir in his eldest family, needed such proof very much.
Wei Changying was naturally happy for his younger brother.
Talents who had just tied up their hair at a young age took the initiative to apply. Although the method was a bit tactful, Wei Changfeng was still in a good mood, so he subconsciously became reserved and said with a calm air: "I have to go back and have someone check it out. It's dark when you hear it." As he said this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
"We have to find out where we came from." Wei Changying was even more satisfied with his younger brother, "Those who are close to you must be careful."
The entire journey was silent.
Back at the mansion, Mrs. Song was impatient and waited directly at the place where she got off the bus. Although she had not seen her for only a day or two, Mrs. Song was still extremely excited when she saw her children, as if they had been separated for many years. After asking again and again, all three of them were fine, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and took them to see Mrs. Song.
Compared with her eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Song, who also cares about her grandchildren, is much more calm. When the three of them came to greet her, she first stopped Song Zaishui from saluting in a friendly manner and asked her to sit down in front of her. Then her face darkened and she ordered Wei. Changfeng and Wei Changying knelt down and scolded them sternly for their negligence and poor hospitality, which caused Song Zaishui to be injured on Xiaozhu Mountain.
Of course this was done for Song Zaishui, not only to show respect for her, but also to imply that her behavior had dragged down the eldest brother and sister.
Of course Song Zaishui couldn't help but notice that although she had scheming intentions, she was still young and tender, not to mention she felt guilty towards her cousins. When she saw this scene, her face turned pale and red for a while, and she said words of pleading in a very unpleasant way - When Mrs. Song finally allowed Wei Changfeng and Wei Changying to get up, Song Zaishui was afraid that she would continue to ask about the injury, so he hurriedly asked to return to the imperial capital.
Of course Mrs. Song wanted to stay, and Mrs. Song also said: "How can you just leave now that your injuries are not fully healed? But if you make Chang Feng and Chang Ying angry, I will punish them again if so."
"It's just because the injury is not fully healed that I want to say goodbye." Song Zaishui followed Wei Changying's previous reminder, tightened the handkerchief, and whispered softly, "If my cousin hadn't rescued and taken care of me this time, how could I have done it?" Can it be like this? I just didn't hide it from my aunt, I fell several times in the past two days. Doctor Ji said that the congestion would be fine now, but now I still feel like something is wrong... Chang Ying also said. When she was a child, she was bruised and bruised like me... although it wasn't her knee that fell."
"It's not that I doubt Dr. Ji's medical skills. After all, he was the one who diagnosed my great-uncle, so his medical skills must be good. But there are so-called specializations in the art. This time I suffered a traumatic injury. Dr. Ji may not be good at this. The injury is like a fire, and the more he gets It would be troublesome to delay, so it is better to return to the imperial capital as soon as possible... After all, there are too many doctors there. "
Mrs. Song and Mrs. Song looked at each other and pondered for a moment before Mrs. Song said: "Ji Jun is indeed not good at trauma. What is your knee like now?"
Song Zaishui smiled bitterly and said: "Now I still feel a little sore when I stand up and walk. This is due to congestion. But... I suddenly lost my strength and fell down. Now I don't dare to ask Chunjing and the others to leave even half a step." "
The people in the hall looked over after hearing this, and sure enough, the maids Chun Jing and Xia Jing were standing almost right next to Song Zaishui, and they were even prepared to step forward to help Song Zaishui at any time.
Seeing this situation, Mrs. Song and Mrs. Song both looked serious. After all, Mrs. Song was Song Zaishui's biological aunt. She was more concerned about her injury and said in surprise: "Didn't Ji Jun say that it will be fine in two or three days... That's not good." ? Still not all right?”
"It's not good." It was Wei Changying who answered the question. She frowned and said, "On the way back today, in the carriage, my cousin fell forward once. Fortunately, Chunjing had quick eyesight and caught her quickly, otherwise she almost missed it. Fell out of the car!"
Even Mrs. Song changed her color at these words and said, "How could this happen?"
Now that I'm back at home, it's much easier to call the doctor. This time not only Ji Yun, but also almost all the famous doctors in the city were called... But even so, no one had a good idea.
Everyone said that Song Zaishui's pulse was normal - but no one could explain why his knees failed from time to time.
When the news spread, even Wei Huan personally asked about it. He was not familiar with Song Zaishui, so he couldn't ask Song Zaishui directly. He asked his servants to find out what happened. Without thinking, he went to tell Mrs. Song: "This matter is suspicious." ." (To be continued)
