Although he experienced some setbacks, Feng Yuxiu finally became An Xin's disciple as he wished.
On the day of An Xin's apprenticeship, two scoundrels came to his house. They were as shameless and thick-skinned as the great general Yuchi Yong who had trapped An Xin in a dog hole.
An Xin glanced at them meaningfully. The generals sitting there with their big horses and golden swords were obviously there to join in the fun today.
The latter glanced at An Xin looking at them, and they all grinned in unison, touching their noses awkwardly and pretending to lower their heads to drink tea.
As the apprenticeship ceremony was about to end, the Feng family was about to invite An Xin and the people who were watching the ceremony to go out for a apprenticeship banquet.
Imperial Censor Shan Jinzhe pursed his beard, stretched out his arm to poke Jiang Zhou who was not far away, and begged in a low voice: "Based on our friendship, please do me a favor."
"Old man, how do you know that we are friends?" Jiang Zhou moved forward without hesitation: "Not familiar."
Chi Huanong, the head of the Hanlin Academy who was sitting opposite, originally wanted to take the same roundabout strategy to save the country as old man Shan, but before he stretched out his hand, he was retracted by a cold glance from his subordinates.
It’s not easy to be a boss nowadays!
Especially since she has a teacher with such strong vitality that she can never die no matter how hard she tries in the court, her other students really don't dare to make things difficult for her easily.
Therefore, who wouldn’t want to fight a teacher who can protect his students from being bullied in official circles?
Therefore, as the head of the Hanlin Academy, he also wanted to send his younger son, who was a bit introverted and gentle, to be a student of this An Jijiu.
In the future, with this god-level teacher and so many powerful senior brothers looking after their children, he won’t have to worry about having no one to take care of his children even if he retires.
Dean Chi looked at An Xin dimly and pushed his boy forward, "Dad also brought a gift for apprenticeship today. Lan'er, go and pay your respects to the teacher."
An Xin turned around in disbelief and looked at Chi Huanong with a smile on her face.
"..."Can you please have some shame?!
"Yes, yes, yes, I have brought some too. It is definitely not less than the gift of becoming a disciple at the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion. Yongzhen should also go there to become a disciple." Shan Jinzhe hurriedly followed.
He hoped more than Chi Huanong to have a teacher who could protect his grandson.
Everyone knows that being an official in the Censorate and being promoted to his position means that he has offended almost half of the civil and military officials in the court.
Originally, his son was ostracized by many officials and had to be sent to a distant place. It would be difficult for him to be transferred back to the capital to serve as an official afterwards. He wanted to let his grandson pursue a career in officialdom after his death.
However, since there are four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, if his grandson really spends his whole life as a white-collar worker, he would not be willing to accept that.
Now seeing that An Xin was able to bravely break into the Duke of Anguo's mansion to seek justice for his students, and stand up for several generals' kids whose knowledge surpassed the number one young master in the capital, he also offended the Prime Minister's Mansion in the process.
He also took several young masters of generals who were a headache for all the teachers in the capital and claimed to be hopeless out for a trip, and after returning, he turned out to be a completely different person, probably no one else but him.
"Stop." An Xin raised his hand to stop him: "You said you want to accept me as a disciple, so why should I save my dignity?!"
Then he pointed at Feng Yuxiu and then Feng Lingyun next to him and told the truth: "In fact, I didn't plan to accept any more students, but I accepted him now.
That’s because during the last outing, the daughter of the Marquis Xuanping’s mansion rescued my cousin. Do you understand now? !”
Now that you know the reason, do what you should do.
An Xin acted as if she had nothing to do after hearing the explanation, so she picked up the teacup and took a big sip of tea, waiting to see off the idlers.
Shan Jinzhe turned sideways and looked at Jiang Zhou with sparkling eyes. "Whenever you are in danger, give me a chance."
"Can you please have some shame? Can you still expect good things from others?" Jiang Zhou, who was expected to be in danger, had a dark face and gritted his teeth: "If you keep going out like this, you'll easily get sacked."
An Xin raised the corners of his lips. When a sharp-tongued person meets a bad-mouthed person, what they say is really touching.
Just when Chi Huanong and Shan Jinzhe felt that there was no hope for their descendants to become their disciples today, they heard a noise in the yard.
Before they could react, a figure came to the center of the reception hall and knelt down in front of An Xin, who was sitting in the main seat.
"An Jiji, you saved my mother and me. I am extremely grateful. Please accept my student's greetings."
An Xin stood up and dodged to the side, and asked in confusion: "What is Mr. Si doing?"
Only then did Si Wei realize that he had not expressed himself clearly.
An Xin glanced at Leng Xiangbai, and the other party understood what she meant.
So he stepped forward to help Si Wei up, but unexpectedly he was rejected by the stubborn boy.
Si Wei lowered his eyes and said in a sad voice, "My eldest sister came back from her late husband's house in order to seize all the property of the palace. She colluded with the palace doctor to give my mother and me a chronic poison."
Everyone was surprised to hear what Si Wei said.
An Xin: "What does this have to do with me?"
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Si Wei raised his head excitedly: "How can it have nothing to do with Master Jijiu? If it weren't for your impeachment, the emperor would have been furious and deprived my eldest sister of her title of princess.
It was impossible for her to be so emotional that she would talk about this matter without restraint.
Anyway, if it weren't for you, the emperor wouldn't have let my father and elder sister leave Beijing to live in their fiefdoms, and she wouldn't have said this in her madness."
An Xin raised an eyebrow. This guy is still a stubborn guy.
"Thank you, and I've already said thank you." An Xin glanced at the crowded hall, held his chin with his hand helplessly, and said: "I won't keep you here."
The intention to drive people away is obvious.
"No! Your unintentional action is equivalent to saving my life and my mother's life." Si Wei said firmly: "I have decided to take you as my teacher. I will serve you in the future and take care of you in your old age..."
"Stop!" An Xin hurriedly spoke up to stop him. If he continued, he would have to eat his meal right there. "Lord Si, that's not necessary."
An Xin pointed out that Si Wei was already a noble, and hoped that he could have some face and stop insisting on taking her, a minor official of the third rank, as his master, and leave her a way out.
"Bang, bang, bang" three times his forehead hit the stone slabs on the floor of the hall.
An Xin was speechless and felt like she was not feeling well at all.
An Xin glanced at everyone in the hall. They were all looking at her eagerly. She wondered if she ran away now, the old emperor would issue a warrant for her arrest.
The wise old Shan Jinzhe put An Xin's struggle to rest with one sentence, "If the young headmaster wants to go out of the capital for fun, I can ask His Majesty for leave on your behalf.
But when you travel around the mountains and rivers, let my Yongzhen drive your horse and serve you tea and water."
"Grandfather, I don't know how to drive a horse." Shan Yongzhen was an honest child and told the truth.
Shan Jinzhe raised his old leg and kicked his grandson in the butt.
"Go away, you have no right to speak here. If I say you can do it, you can do it." Then he laughed awkwardly, "I'm sorry, everyone, children can't speak."
