He has been a student for more than ten years, and one day he will be a teacher!

It can be said that Cui Xie was quite excited. He ran to tell Lu Juren that he wanted to be a teacher, and also asked him what clothes he should wear and how to behave in order to raise the image of a majestic teacher in the eyes of his disciples. Lu Juren is clear and serious, and he is a teacher who is afraid of students without acting, but he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he usually treats people like a spring breeze, afraid that students will not respect him.

Lu Juren reminisced about the past and remembered the days when Cui Xie taught the two arrogant children before he was enlightened. Unhappy, mother and grandmother have to feel distressed and protect the short, and there are no students coming to study every day, what can you teach!"

Cui Xie listened to his complaints silently, said "Mr. hard work", and asked how the two younger brothers are doing now.

After all, Cui He is a scumbag. He has been in the hands of Lu Juren since he was a child. He is obedient and sensible, and asks him to learn what he wants to learn. Now Cui Heng has been attacked, and he has also been educated by Cui Xie's ruthless little black house. I think the homework is tight. It's just that the two people are of average talent, and the couplets and articles they make can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. It is a pity to call Mr. Lu.

He shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid these two children can't lift up in their teens like you, let alone more than ten years of refining essays."

Cui Xie doesn't care about this - Cui Heng is still not promising, and it's the most terrible thing for his younger brother to cheat on his elder brother. Brother He is still young, in his twenties or thirties after more than ten years, he is still young enough to pass the exam.

What he is most concerned about now is how to educate the two new students when they come in.

Seeing how excited he was, Lu Juren shook his head disapprovingly, and sat down at the table with the "Notes on Imperial Examinations": "Be careful, just ask them to stay at home, I will teach you during the day, and you will come back sooner or later. Check and make up their homework afterward; if you don’t control it strictly, anyway, they are studying in the academy, so you can leave some homework for them, and just look at it on the 15th day of the first year.”

Forget it, Mr. Lu and him are going to try it out next year, and we can't take them with two children full-time. At least we'll talk about it after we try it.

But Mr. Lu's idea is very good, first take a thorough test to see their level, and then leave some extracurricular homework...

In the evening two days later, Zhang Zhaichang took Liuli and his two sons to the Cui family's house to worship.

Cui Xie also took a leave of absence from the teachers that day, went home early to prepare a banquet, and also asked his two younger brothers to come out to help entertain the guests. There is a common language among the children, and the rules of their family's study are explained in advance, so that the Zhang brothers can be psychologically prepared.

Zhang Zhaichang looked at him with the door wide open, and his children and family members came out to entertain guests. He couldn't help being a little flattered and politely said: "The dog is here to apprentice, how can I disturb you like this?"

Cui Xie said with a smile: "When I was in school, the head priest took good care of me, and I wasn't polite to you, didn't I? Today is my first time as a teacher, so naturally I have to treat my Dongweng and my disciples well. ."

Zhang Zhaichang bowed his hands to him with a smile, and said solemnly: "The little dog will be entrusted to Brother Cui Xian in the future. If you see that they are disobedient, just follow the family law, and I will admit it if you kill me!" Son: "Heling, Trillium, come to apprentice!"

The statue of Confucius, the former teacher, had been hung on the Cui family hall in advance, and Zhang Zhai asked his son to offer six salutes to pay homage to Confucius and Mr. Cui.

The two children came back to the Cui family to celebrate their birthday, and before they left, they were given a set of four books, knowing that he was as old-fashioned as the academy master. Today, I was escorted by my father to apprentice, and I felt that the future was dark. I couldn't help shouting: "Dad, we don't want to study anymore, we want to be the Jinyiwei like Feng Yun and solve major cases!"

Zhang Zhaichang lost face in front of Cui Xie, his face twitched with anger, he shouted "nonsense" angrily, and reached out to hit his son. The two sons of the Zhang family were young and lively, and they avoided the palm of their hands as soon as they turned around, almost flashing their father's waist.

Zhang Luan was in pain and shame, gasping for breath, and pointed at his son and said, "These two unfilial sons! These two unfilial sons! They have spoiled their mother!"

Cui Heng looked at the two bear children and felt a bit envious in his heart - how much he thought he could play his big brother around like this!

It's a pity that his brother is young and strong. Every time he wants to make trouble, he ends up being kicked up by his brother and beaten and shut down...

Just like the two nephews who didn't enter the door.

Cui Heng shrunk to his brother's side honestly, staring down at his toes.

Cui Xie took a step forward, and when Dangdang was blocking the escape route of the two young masters of the Zhang family, he picked one up in one hand, dragged them to Zhang Zhaichang by their collars, and said with a smile, "Brother Zhang, don't worry, I see this. The ideas of the two children are also good. Whether we study or do things, don’t we all serve the court, and we have the ability to stand up and honor our ancestors? The children are willing to be officials who punish traitors and eliminate evil, and we should support those of us who are adults.”

Zhang Zhaichang looked at them dumbfounded and asked subconsciously, "Why did you bring them back?"

The two young masters Zhang were also shocked, and they didn't understand how they were caught and thrown back in the blink of an eye.

Is this still a scholar holding them

Or a lifter? Jin Yiwei in the play is just like that, right

Seeing that they were being honest, Cui Xie lowered his head and gently reasoned with the two: "You want to be Jin Yiwei, but do you know that Jin Yiwei also wants to go to school? People who don't read can't read the files, and they can't be like Xie Qianhu. , you can guess the means of the prisoner just by guessing, so how can you be a good Jinyiwei?"

Zhang Heling glanced at his younger brother and struggled to say, "Then, then we shouldn't be a high-ranking official like Xie Qianhu, just like Feng Yun to collect evidence in the enemy's line, and fight against traitors, isn't that enough?"

Zhang Zhaichang said angrily: "Who told you this? You don't study hard in the academy, and you just listen to these messy stories!"

The two children lowered their heads, pursed their lips, and did not speak. It seemed that they were used to playing behind their backs.

Zhang Zhaichang felt embarrassed in front of him, and complained: "These two ignorant boys, because I am not at home, I don't know how much madness they are secretly doing! One day their sister gets married, and we are the old couple. They're gone again, I'll see how they live..."

Cui Xie first asked someone to help Zhang Zhaichang to the chair, poured him a glass of water, and persuaded him not to get angry. Jin Yiwei?"

The two children nodded.

Cui Xie asked again: "Then do you know how many captains are there besides Feng Yun beside Xie Qianhu?"

In Yaoniang's case, there were five nameless Jinyiwei who stood in line with Feng Yun, and in Liuying's headless case, they also had names, such as Zhang Wang, Ma Zhao, and so on. The two children not only listened to people's speech books, but also secretly went to the play. They knew it clearly, but they couldn't say it in front of the old father, and the younger brothers exchanged glances below.

Cui Xie asked them with a smile: "Xie Qianhu has so many Jinyiwei guards, why does he prefer Fengyun? Why are other captains inferior to him?"

This is of course because when the author wrote the play, he named the protagonist Feng Yun instead of Zhang San Li Si, Dynasty Ma Han or anything.

However, the two children couldn't see through the author's sinister intentions. After thinking for a while, they said, "Because Feng Yun is the best in martial arts!"

"Because Feng Yun is more capable than others!"

"Because Feng Yun can catch clues, he asked about the first black-clothed robbery from Yao Niang!"

"That's right, in Liu Ying's headless case, Feng Yun was the first to see a head from the mud!"

"When Li Qianhu tried the case of stealing the royal horse, he was the first to discover that the horse farm had lost his horse!"

"And Xu Qianhu's drowning case in a hot spring in Changping. He also saw that the female corpse was not drowned, but was thrown into the hot spring after being covered to death!"

"And Wang Qianhu's troupe kidnapping case..."

?

He, the author, hasn't paid attention to the art world for a few months, and there have been so many follow-up works imitating his Xie Qianhu Detective Collection series? And he turned his rimmed male lead Feng Yun into a public male lead

These thousands of households really want to be famous and want to go crazy!

Cui Xie was indignant and wanted to remain calm in front of his future disciples. He smiled and said, "You are all right. Feng Yun can solve so many cases mainly because he is smart and cautious, and can make good decisions. But how did he succeed? What about the wise man? Has there ever been a wise official man who could not read?"

He made a lot of sense, but the kids didn't like to hear it. Zhang Heling thought about it and asked, "Then we don't need to read too much, right? Can't we just learn martial arts? Don't they all say that military officers don't need to read?"

Cui Xie shook his head: "The literati want to go to school, so of course the martial artist also wants to be a military officer. If you want to be a military officer, you have to take the martial arts exam. Your father also knows that, and I recognize Xie Qianhu in the play. He told me that their official Jinyiwei Everyone is studying in the Beijing martial arts school, and the "Notes on Imperial Examination Must Read" edited by me are displayed in the martial arts school. If you don't believe it, you can go to the martial arts school and ask if there are people in the world who can become officials and solve cases without reading."

He is a martial artist, his eyes are brighter than ordinary people, once he smiles and speaks seriously, his expression becomes a little serious and afraid of people.

It is more believable.

The two young masters really didn't know that they had to go to school to be Jin Yiwei, and they were still studying the books written by this teacher. What kind of learning, it's not like that in the play!"

This sentence made his father catch, and he shouted: "You are still watching the play? Those messy things were not told to you by others, but you played truant to watch it? Where did you get the money!"

Of course, the money was given by the mother and sister, and the older seniors in the academy showed them.

The two children had just suffered a blow to their hearts, and they told Cui Xie to block them and couldn't run. Listening to their father's scolding, they bowed their heads aggrieved and stubborn.

Cui Xie was afraid of Zhang Zhai's anger, so he quickly asked him to sit down and drink tea, and persuaded: "It's normal for children to love to play and play, and Brother Heng is still running around Beijing when he is a few years older than them. Don't you know that you are making progress now? Let's do the apprenticeship ceremony first, I will give them a thorough understanding, make a study plan, and slowly bring them over."

Zhang Zhaichang was lucky there, and Cui Xie patted the two children and said, "Come and salute to the most holy teacher. You have all worshiped in the school. You must know the etiquette. Follow me to worship."

Zhang Luan followed with a rebuke. Cui Xie turned around and bowed down, and the two children worshipped the statue of Confucius aggrievedly, and held Liuli to recognize him as their teacher.

Even Jin Yiwei has to read his books. If they want to be Jin Yiwei, they have to learn from him sooner or later. Besides, this teacher also knows the story of Xie Qianhu, which is much better than his father and the old masters in the academy.

The two children got up from the ground, Cui Xie took out two new sets of pen and ink as gifts for them, and turned around and instructed Xiao Songyan: "Go and carry two tables and chairs over there."

Immediately outside, a leader came in with a low table and a small stool. Cui Xie told them to put them on the wall in front and back, and lined up the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and pen washers on the table. He smiled and said to everyone in the room, "Today, Heling, Since Trillium has joined me, let's take a thorough test first to see what step they have learned now, so that I can teach students according to their aptitude."

The two children have not yet been formally taught the four books, so they can only check how well they memorize the Mongolian books such as miscellaneous characters, rhyme books, pairs of classes, ancient prose and lanterns, elementary school Zhengmeng, maths and songs, and three, one hundred, and one thousand. Cui Xie has never read some of these books, but it just so happens that the two younger brothers have been here since elementary school... Whether they have learned well or not, they can write a question if they can memorize a sentence or two.

He beckoned to the younger brothers who were sitting down, and said, "Since Heling and Yanling are already my disciples, they are also your nephews, so you should do something for the younger generation. Come here, each of you will make a set of papers for your nephew to do, just like what I usually give you, don't make any wrong questions - this is a test for them, but also for you. If the questions are not good, I will give them back. You do your homework."

Cui Heng trembled when he heard it.

God too! How can there be such cruel and vicious people in the world!

He tortured four people without moving a finger!

He walked to the table with fear and hatred and asked the question, but he didn't know that Brother Zhang Heling also looked at him with hatred and fear—

Not counting a teacher, the teacher actually has two brothers who are accomplices, and they compare their brothers in front of their father, and they will reveal what they are this time!

Only Cui He was calm, he picked up the pen and asked questions according to the papers he usually did, and felt the pleasure of being a teacher and producing papers for exams.

While they were writing the questions, Cui Xie asked people to bring food and drinks, accompanied Zhang Zhaichang and two students to dinner. The Cui brothers leaned on the table and wrote pens like flying. The Zhang brothers couldn't help but glance at the place after taking a bite of the dish. They saw that the stack of white paper on the table was visibly thin, and they couldn't even eat the rice.

I wanted to drink wine to drown my sorrows, but the jug given to them was not wine, but freshly squeezed pomegranate juice.

The two young masters Zhang had their appetites blocked, and they didn't eat much after a meal. Seeing that they couldn't eat anymore, Cui Xie asked someone to take them to the yard to look at chrysanthemums, so that they could digest and solve the problem.

Zhang Zhaichang looked at Cui Heng and Cui He's writings with gradually increasing topic papers, but he felt relieved and said with a smile: "He Zhong, He Zhong, you are really well-intentioned to my two unworthy sons. Your younger brothers are also so enthusiastic in teaching, I really did not entrust the wrong person. In the future, when they have a future, I will make them repay the kindness and serve you like my own children. "

Cui Xie shook his head with a smile: "Where, I'm just imitating what the teachers and teachers did, and the head of the studio should stop complimenting me."

The children were so worried, the two adults reconciled with Lele. After the meal was over, the two Cui brothers wrote all the questions on the stack of paper, barely finishing the questions. Cui Xie brought it over and checked it with Chief Zhai together, added and corrected a few questions, and then called the two Young Master Zhang over to do the question.

Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling were about to faint, and gritted their teeth and said, "This is too much! We can't finish it!"

Zhang Zhaichang said angrily: "What can't be done! Today can't be done tomorrow, there will always be one day! You are now Cui Xiandi's disciples, don't think you can still be lazy like in the academy!"

Cui Xie called the two younger brothers to the table and exchanged hot new dishes to reward them for their hard work. He came back and persuaded Zhang Zhaichang: "Zhaichang don't need to worry. With such a thick question, the children are naturally anxious. I think they are also in a hurry. If you can’t finish it, why don’t the head chef stay at my house for the night and watch them do it, and make as many dishes as you can…”

Er Zhang was about to nod his head in agreement, when he heard him say: "If you can't finish it, even if you can't do it, ask them to go back and copy a question ten times or twenty times, and slowly consolidate it."

No no no! Dad, you can't promise! You are our father!

They wanted to jump on Zhang Zhai's long legs and cry, but Zhang Luan didn't look at his son with a cold face, and nodded towards Cui Xie: "He Zhong is right. The women in the family are ignorant and only know how to spoil them. These two evil obstacles, it is more convenient for you to manage them at home."
