Chapter 34
the next day.

Hu Hanshan handed in the paper before noon, and Hu Er, who was going to deliver the paper, came to Dongli Thatched Cottage and met many long followers of bureaucrats and gentry.

Already belongs to the end.

Liao Shirong and other honorable ministers' children paid more attention to this report than the imperial examination. They thought carefully in their respective official residences, and they had to think for a long time every time they wrote.

I didn't sleep all night last night, so I wrote the report overnight and handed it over to Dongli Thatched Cottage.

Hu Hanshan didn't care that much anymore, and wrote in handwritten his bastard behavior over the years, as well as all kinds of dandyism that he set up an eagle and walked a dog.

Especially at the end, he wrote that he beat the uncle of the country Ma Fan, which seemed to be worse than the uncle Ma Fan of the country who bullied the market.

Various chrysanthemums are planted in the back garden of Dongli Thatched Cottage.

Although it is already the severe cold season, there are still several kinds of famous chrysanthemums blooming, among which the red two-color and green hibiscus are the most rare and expensive.

Song Lian sat in a bamboo quiet room.

A censer burns incense.

The aroma curls up.

There is peace and tranquility in the stained quiet room.

There is also a futon next to it.

Chen Ze, one of the Ten Friends of Beiguo, a great Confucian, is sitting on a futon.

Through the bamboo window in the quiet room, you can enjoy the red and green hibiscus chrysanthemums swaying in the cold wind.

The ten friends of Beiguo are famous all over the world, not only because of their attainments in poetry, music and Fu, but also because they are masters of Confucianism.

The great Confucian Chen Ze traveled around to study when he was young, read the works of Min Xue, listened to the lectures of Guan Xue, and was most proficient in Lu Xue.

Song Lian invited the great Confucian Chen Ze to come to Dongli Thatched Cottage, one reason is that both of them are close friends of Aiju.

The second is that because the great Confucian Chen Ze is proficient in Luxue, Song Lian's public recruitment of closed disciples can give a lot of insights.

Song Lian and Chen Ze had just brewed a pot of tea, which was a high-quality chrysanthemum tea made from green hibiscus buds, before they had a sip of green hibiscus.

The housekeeper of Dongli Thatched Cottage brought Hu Hanshan's letter and placed it at the door of the bamboo quiet room.

Song Lian's bamboo quiet room was built by him. Except for the famous scholar Chen Ze who is famous all over the world, most important officials of the central government cannot enter.

Song Lian was older, and the younger Confucian Chen Ze stood up, opened the opposite bamboo door, and took the report.

The Great Confucian Chen Ze glanced at the name and couldn't help laughing. He didn't expect that the person sent this time was actually an acquaintance.

Song Lian put down the teacup in his hand and frowned when he saw Hu Hanshan's name written on the letter.

He has many prejudices against his father, Prime Minister Zuo Hu Weiyong, and has criticized Hu Weiyong for many years.

However, thinking that the purpose of recruiting closed-door disciples this time is to inherit family education, I can only temporarily let go of my prejudice against Hu Weiyong due to different political views.

Thinking of Hu Hanshan's voluntary divorce from Fu Yujin for Chen Xiaowan, the only daughter of the great Confucian Chen Ze.

Based on Song Lian's understanding of Chen Ze, his friend for many years, he is very satisfied with Hu Hanshan, the prospective son-in-law: "Wendu, first read Lingxian's masterpiece."

The great Confucian Chen Ze couldn't wait a long time ago, not because he was very satisfied with Hu Hanshan, but because Chen Xiaowan, the daughter of one of the four noble daughters of Jinling, has always been thinking about Hu Hanshan.

For so many years, it is rare for her daughter to have a young talent who never leaves him. As a father, Chen Ze, a great Confucian, must check first.

He reached out and took out Hu Hanshan's statement to learn about Hu Hanshan's past.

The great Confucianist Chen Ze threw the report on the bamboo floor before he even took a second look: "This little bastard is really ignorant, his bastard behavior these years has almost caught up with the loyal official Wen Tianxiang."

Song Lian was able to become the prince's Five Classics teacher not only because of his achievements in the management of classics, but also because he was proficient in the calculation of people's hearts and temples.

After so many years, when has he ever seen his good friend Chen Ze throw things without any grace? This is not his style at all.

It's fine to scold Hu Hanshan, and add a sentence of Zhonglie Gongwen Tianxiang at the end.

How could Song Lian not understand the meaning inside and outside the words.

Officials who are not in Jinling know what kind of guy Hu Hanshan, the eldest son of Zuo Prime Minister Hu Weiyong, is, let alone Song Lian who has lived in Jinling for so many years.

Uncle Guo Ma Fan is the number one bastard in Jinling, and Hu Hanshan is the number one ignorant dude in Jinling.

However, Wen Tianxiang, the loyal official, was also a prodigal son when he was young. Later, no one thought that Wen Tianxiang, who turned his prodigal son back, became the backbone of the Song Dynasty for more than 200 years.

The great Confucianist Chen Zeming was scolding Hu Hanshan on the surface, but he was actually telling Song Lian that Hu Hanshan had turned his prodigal son back, and he also had the achievements of Linjiang Immortal and Qishu.

Now he is one of the top three talents in Jinling, and he might be another loyal official Wen Tianxiang in the future, so hurry up and take him under his door.

Zhonglie Gongwen Tianxiang is so sacred in the hearts of scholars in Shilin.

If other celebrities were here, they would definitely say angrily that Hu Hanshan is also worthy of being compared with Duke Zhonglie.

Song Lian had the same idea: "Before the public recruitment of closed disciples, I already had two candidates in my heart."

The great Confucian Chen Ze heard the key point, restrained his behavior like singing Kunqu opera, and looked at Song Lian who was sitting on the futon. This may be related to the future career of the son-in-law.

Song Lian poured a cup of green hibiscus for the great Confucian Chen Ze: "One is Liao Shirong who is proficient in Luxue."

The great Confucian Chen Ze stroked his beard, thinking that the other one should be the prospective son-in-law Hu Hanshan.

However, Song Lian's other name disappointed him greatly: "The other one is Liu Wentai, who is proficient in family studies. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible to worship under the old man's family."

"but."

Song Lian picked up the report on the bamboo floor, opened it and read it.

Hu Hanshan listed all the bad things he has done since he was a child, in order to make Song Lian not look at him.

Although Hu Hanshan has made small mistakes in recent years, he has not made major mistakes. Unlike Ma Fan, he is really not a thing.

To put it bluntly, these small mistakes are at most jealousy with other bureaucrats and gentry's children, and fighting for the Qing Dynasty in Jixianyuan.

What's more, he hasn't studied much, and he hangs out in Jinling with a bunch of dog legs all day long.

Before Song Lian read the report, he had a bad impression of Hu Hanshan, the Jinling dude, but after reading it, he had a much better impression of him.

At the end, most of the prejudice in Song Lian's heart had disappeared, even a little unexpected.

The children of other bureaucrats and gentry proclaimed how filial and fraternal they are, and how much they respect teachers and morals in their respective submissions.

One by one seems to have become a saint without defects.

Song Lian's eyes were almost dizzy, and he didn't need to open the report to know how hype was blown inside.

Hu Hanshan's essay really made Song Lian's eyes shine, and he only wrote one thing throughout the article.

Hu Hanshan's various deficiencies are insufficient, what a jerk he has been in these years, and how many ridiculous things he has done.

Song Lian originally wanted to see Hu Hanshan directly, because his talent and learning had been hesitant, after reading this report that only wrote about his own shortcomings.

Song Lian made a decision: "Let Hu Hanshan come to Dongli Thatched Cottage tomorrow."
