Fang Yun also knew that the transport company was wealthy, but he didn't expect a sixth-level official to send an invitation so quickly. He didn't care about the left prime minister at all.
Fang Yun asked, "Does Magistrate Zhao have a deep relationship with the left prime minister?"
He Yutang smiled, "You don't know. The transport company is the lifeline of the country. It has always been the imperial family that has been the governor of the transport company. Now it is Uncle Jiu Rou. When he gets drunk, he curses the left prime minister and is extremely shameless. The left prime minister can only avoid him. But other than eating and drinking, he has no blemishes. The Overwatch Council doesn't want to pay attention to him. They can't accuse him of drinking and causing trouble every day. "
Fang Yun couldn't help but smile. There were many stories about Uncle Jiu Rou in Jingguo. Although most of them were absurd, they weren't annoying. He had done many things that seemed foolish but were very fair.
"Since Magistrate Zhao walks the path of the imperial family, then there is no harm in meeting him."
Fang Yun's voice had just faded when there was another knock on the door.
"Is it Fang Manor?"
The two looked at each other. Fang Yun went to open the door again. It was another person who looked like a servant.
"This is an invitation from my master. I hope you will do me the honor."
Fang Yun took the letter and read it. It was an invitation from Jiang Zhou's Justice Department, Gong Si, a fourth-level official. The Justice Department was responsible for arresting people, and the Justice Department was responsible for investigating cases. This Gong Si was also a powerful official in Jiang Zhou.
Fang Yun opened the invitation. It turned out that one of his sons had just hired a scholar to be his first teacher. He was holding a banquet to thank his teacher and had invited Fang Yun to attend.
Fang Yun asked He Yutang, "How is this person's relationship with the left prime minister?"
"He's from the left prime minister's hometown." He Yutang's expression was a bit strange.
Fang Yundao, "He invited me to attend his son's banquet. It seems like he wants me to teach his son. But why isn't he afraid of the left prime minister?"
He Yutang said, "He's from the same county as the left prime minister. There is no way he would betray him. The left prime minister is very assured. However, everyone had their own selfish motives. You're so famous now, and you're good at teaching students. Naturally, he wants his son to receive the best teaching. After all, he's not young anymore. He has to think for his future generations. As long as the Left Prime Minister didn't personally say anything against you, he could pretend to be ignorant. The Left Prime Minister is in dire need of manpower. Even if you know his little scheme, you can't do anything to him. After all, he has helped the Left Prime Minister a lot in Jiangzhou. If it were someone else, they would be in a mess. "
"You seem to know a lot about the Imperial Court," Fang Yundao said.
He Yu Tang smiled and said, "Us elementary scholars are all 'talking heads' and 'street ministers'. In the future, we all want to obtain scholarly honors, so we always pay attention to political affairs. After hearing a lot, we understand what is going on."
Fang Yundao said, "He's old, so he can focus on his descendants. But I still want to improve myself, so I don't want to be involved with the Left Prime Minister. I can't go to this banquet."
He Yucheng said, "That's good. When you move to a new house, you must remember to hire a concierge. When the time comes, your visiting cards and invitations will come like snowflakes. More than half of the provincial yamen in Jiangzhou are here. Coupled with the officials and noble families of the Dayuan Mansion, even if more than half of the officials are afraid of the Left Prime Minister and won't invite you, the others will be enough to keep you busy. "
"Really? So many people will invite me? "
"Why not? First, it was the Saint Double Armor, followed by the Three Poems Shine on the Holy Road, followed by the Gut-Refining Epigraph of My Shack, and the Duke of Jianmei's protection. Of course, many people will invite you. To put it bluntly, Jingguo may be ruled by the Left Prime Minister for the next ten years. But ten years later, you can at least compete with the Left Prime Minister, or even surpass him. Your potential is number one in Jingguo! "He Yucheng looked deeply at Fang Yun.
"Ten years is too long." Fang Yun sighed.
"Yes, ten years is too long. Otherwise, the Left Prime Minister's people wouldn't target you and the Liu Clan wouldn't take the initiative to seek peace. So I advise you to wait until you become an Elementary Scholar and ask your uncle, General Fang Shouye, to send you an invitation to the Demon Slaying Poetry Gathering. Then, you can stay in Jadesea City and wait until the year you pass before returning to the Dayuan Mansion to participate in the provincial examination. "
"The Left Prime Minister's forces in Jadesea City are weak?"
"Not just weak. Jadesea City has been under the control of the military for more than a hundred years. The officials of the Academy of Arts can enter, but the Left Prime Minister's subordinates can only give up. As long as you go to Jadesea City, the Liu Clan won't dare to provoke you. There is a saying in Jiangzhou: the Emperor of the Academy is broken, the general is arrogant. The Prefecture Overseer has been thinking about it. That general is the commander of the provincial army, Governor Zhang Poyue. He is arrogant, but he is chivalrous and is loved by the soldiers of Jiangzhou. He loves talents. If Liu Zicheng dares to cause trouble for you in Jadesea City, it won't be as simple as burning down the Liu Clan's pawnshop. "
"Many thanks for Brother He's reminder. It is said that after becoming an Elementary Scholar, if you want to increase your talent, it is best to kill demons and exterminate barbarians. Not everyone can write brilliant poems, but every Elementary Scholar can kill demons and exterminate barbarians. "
"Yes, that is why the military of each country is also a place where talented people come from, not at all inferior to the Academy of Arts. Once someone from the Academy of Arts feels that it is hard to improve their talent, they will try to break through by slaying demons. After all, we scholars cultivate our courage. If we can't kill demons and exterminate barbarians, how can we be considered scholars! "
"Brother He has also killed demons?"
He Yu Tang proudly said: "I once cooperated with soldiers to kill hundreds of demons, more than ten demon soldiers, and even assisted in killing a demon general. You might not know this, but demons are extremely strong. Ordinary demons have stronger bodies than scholars, and demon soldiers can fight with Elementary Scholars without being at a disadvantage. As for the demon general, I actually secretly used the assassin from the 《Yi Shui Song》 to stab it. "
"Brother He is our role model." Fang Yundao knew that the 《Yi Shui Song》 was the 《Jing Ke Stabbing Qin Song》.
Who knew that He Yu Tang would say with a guilty conscience: "Actually, I clenched my teeth and fought against the sea demons. Later on, when I achieved the lowest military merit and obtained the qualifications to become a ninth rank official, I hurriedly returned to the Da Yuan Mansion."
Fang Yun nodded his head. He knew about this point. A High Scholar or above could directly become an official. However, for an Elementary Scholar to become an official, he would have to experience killing demons and exterminating barbarians.
He Yu Tang sighed: "Actually, there are too few legendary war poems, and there are even fewer that can be used to show off one's talent. My talent is stupid, and it took me three years to master the 《Yi Shui Song》, 《My Son Robe》, and 《Gentleman in Servitude》. Only the 《Yi Shui Song》 can kill people, but the distance is limited. It can only kill enemies five zhang away. As for the last two poems, they are both from the 《Book of Songs》. One is to boost morale and strengthen armor, while the other is to comfort soldiers and prevent them from becoming tired or depressed. It can't be compared to those High Scholars who have the 《Surging Waves Walk》 and the 《Song of Gale》. However, I hope you can create even more powerful war poems when you are an Elementary Scholar, so that tens of thousands of people die every year. "
"I will do my best." Fang Yundao actually had the idea of enriching his war poems, but since he was not an Elementary Scholar, he could not verify it.
While the two were chatting, they did not close the door. In the end, another person came, but this time it was not an invitation, but a visiting card.
Fang Yundao opened it and saw that it was written by the head of a prominent family in the Da Yuan Mansion. He asked Fang Yundao to inform him when he had the time, and he could come at any time.
Fang Yundao hurriedly closed the door and said: "I have a bad feeling."
He Yu Tang joked: "Me too. Today you will be flooded with invitations and visiting cards. The 《Epigraph of My Shack》 you wrote two days ago, and it was circulated yesterday. Today you can receive so many invitations and visiting cards. You are completely famous. It's a pity that no one has put up your portrait everywhere, otherwise you would be recognized wherever you go. "
Fang Yundao: "Brother He, don't joke around. You know that I am preparing to take the Elementary Scholar exam in June. I need to learn how to deal with Liu Zicheng as soon as possible. I only sleep for two hours a day, how can I have time to meet these people?"
"You are so hardworking? Oh, as long as you have the Dragon Palace Blood Ginseng, sleeping for two hours a day is nothing. After all, that thing is eaten by dragons. "He Yu Tang said enviously.
"Brother He, you are experienced and knowledgeable. How can I avoid meeting these people?"
He Yu Tang immediately said: "Generally speaking, falling sick is fine, but you have the Dragon Palace Blood Ginseng now, and nothing serious happened. It is impossible for you to suddenly fall sick."
Fang Yundao laughed: "What do you mean nothing serious? I was angered by the Yan family and Liu Zicheng until I fell sick! "
He Yu Tang looked at Fang Yundao for a long time, speechless. Finally, he said: "Offending you is really bad luck. Now those who can't invite you will hate Yan Chongnian, and the Yan family will have a hard time. When I get home, I will write a sentence and hang it in the study. It will be: Never offend Fang Yundao. "
"Do you need me to write it for you?"
He Yu Tang laughed.
There was another knock on the door, and from the sound of footsteps, there were three or four people.
Fang Yundao lowered his voice: "Brother He, I will rely on you. Go to the Fang family and find Yuhuan. Tell her that there is no need to look for a house. Let her take over the house that the Yan family gave me. "
"But the deed needs your signature. Are you willing to give her a house worth close to ten thousand taels? If she signs it, the house will be hers. "
"Sister Yuhuan has raised me for so many years without a word of complaint. Giving her a house is nothing. I will go back and tell Da Niu to go tell the people outside that I am sick, and then tell Sister Yuhuan. Remember. "Fang Yundao quickly returned to the house after he finished speaking.
He Yu Tang secretly praised Fang Yundao for being a true gentleman. Not only was he good to his attendant Da Niu, he was also good to his child bride. When he became Fang Yundao's subordinate in the future, he would definitely not be abandoned.
"If he goes to Jade Sea City, it will be very dangerous to fight against the sea demons. Why don't I take a gamble and follow him? If he becomes a saint in the future, our family can become a Saint Clan. Becoming a Prominent Clan will not be a problem. We can even become a Prestigious Clan or even a Wealthy Clan! "
He Yu Tang clenched his fists and made up his mind. He then went to the door and helped Fang Yundao receive the invitation. He told the person who came that Fang Yundao was sick because of the Yan family and would only be able to visit in a few days.
After Fang Yundao finished instructing Fang Da Niu in the house, he ignored the outside world and continued to study.
After studying for an hour, Fang Yundao rested. His mind was filled with the battle poems and famous works.
"The famous works in this world all have great power. It is said that the Spring and Autumn Annals written by Confucius himself is the most magical. My previous poems were mostly literary, and even if the Epigraph of My Shack is different, it is still a short work. What will happen if I write a longer one? "
Fang Yundao thought for a while, then wrote on a piece of paper.
