Chapter 22 The desire to learn

Although the Northern Zhou Dynasty merged with the Qi Dynasty, Chang'an became the political center of the north, but in reality, Chang'an is far from Yecheng.

The city has been in disrepair for a long time, is dilapidated and small, and is seriously polluted.

Therefore, after Yang Jian usurped the throne, he made up his mind to build a new capital, namely Daxing City. After Li Yuan founded the country, Daxing was renamed Chang'an.

Therefore, where Cui Che is now, is not Chang'an of the later Sui and Tang Dynasties, but the ancient city of Chang'an of the Han Dynasty. However, Cui Che not only loves mountains and rivers, but visiting ancient times is also his pleasure. So he and Pei Xiu traveled in the ancient city for two days, and it was not until September 19th that the two of them prepared. Study under a teacher.

Cui Che and Pei Xiu each wore new clothes and carried dried meat and other shackles for apprenticeship. They did not call for slaves. Cui Che only took Zhang Wu with him.

This trip is to become a disciple, not to compete for ostentation. Moreover, Chang'an is at the feet of the Emperor, and the public security will not be any worse. It is enough to have Zhang Wu accompanying him.

Xu Wenyuan's academy is located outside Chang'an City, on the banks of the Weishui River. As mentioned before, Chang'an is dilapidated and small, so land is at a premium. Xu Wenyuan is not Cui Che, so he had to choose a site outside the city, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, so that students can calm down. read.

Cui Che studied enthusiastically, but returned disappointed without thinking. After Xu Wenyuan gave Pei Xiu a test, he accepted his cultivation ceremony. After all, although Pei Xiu delayed for four years, as a direct descendant of the Wenxi Pei family, he had no basic qualifications. Difference.

But for Cui Che, he didn't even ask, and said:

"You are still young, so you should seek help from a mentor, so go ahead."

Without even allowing Cui Che to defend himself, he turned around and went back to class to continue teaching.

For Pei Xiu, he would rather not be a teacher than Cui Che because he couldn't study with Cui Che. How could there be a shortage of teachers around Chang'an City?

Just as he was about to go in and talk things over with Xu Wenyuan, Cui Che grabbed his sleeve tightly.

"Don't mess around. Just study here and I will find a way."

After telling Pei Xiu to stay and study in peace, Cui Che returned to Chang'an City and ordered people to send clothes and daily necessities to Pei Xiu. He was also waiting for the right time to visit Xu Wenyuan again.

Cui Che devoted himself to Xu Wenyuan's disciples, not only to establish a connection with Yang Su through Yang Xuangan and to form a friendship with the future Li Mi, but also to have a good relationship with Dou Wei.

Dou Wei, who was also a student of Xu Wenyuan, was certainly not as famous as the two rebels Yang Xuangan and Li Mi, but he had a niece who was eight years old, had hair that was as long as her knees, had an eye-catching look, and had a peerless appearance.

Although he is one year older than brother Che, Cui Che feels that age is not the difference in love, nor is he the beauty of the girl from the Dou family. The most indispensable thing in the world is the beauty of the country, who is more beautiful than Chang'an City. There are many teachers here.

I just think this woman is a good candidate to be my husband and raise my children.

Cui Jiancheng, Cui Shimin, bring it to you!

Of course, although Brother Che is from a noble family, there is still a small gap compared to Li Yuan. However, the Dou family daughter is only eight years old and has a long way to go, so everyone has a chance.

After returning home, Cui Che ordered someone to buy a peacock screen. While waiting for the right time, he practiced archery with peacock eyes every day.

After all, he is also a time traveler. When the Dou family daughter comes of age and chooses a husband, she will not be as powerful as Li Yuan, but her fame will be beyond his reach. When the time comes, everyone will compete fairly.

'Isn't it just a bird screen that can be chosen? I can do it too!'

Brother Che was not convinced, so he immediately let go, and the arrow aimed at the bird's eye left the string and hit the bird's foot.

Cui Che waited at home for nearly a month. During this period, Feng Deyi became a disciple of Li Delin as he wished. Pei Xiu also occasionally told Cui Che some interesting things about the academy when he went home, which made Brother Che jealous.

.

On October 14th, the sixth year of Jiande (577), Gao Wei, the empress of the Northern Qi Dynasty who had received courtesy, Gao Heng, the last emperor, and dozens of other clan members were executed in Chang'an.

When he learned that Gao Wei had been killed, Cui Che burned incense to comfort his father and ancestors. It was this tyrant who unjustly killed his grandfather Cui Jishu. When Pei Xiu learned the news, he even rushed back to Chang'an to celebrate with Cui Che. The two of them had a blood feud with Gao Wei.

On the night of the 16th, it snowed heavily, making it difficult for carriages and horses to move. Such bad weather was exactly what Cui Che had been waiting for.

In the early morning of the 17th, the snow was still falling. Zhang Wu picked up the dried meat and followed Cui Che out of the city in the snow.

Arriving outside the academy, Cui Che took the dried meat and told Zhang Wu to find a place to avoid the snow. He listened to the sound of reading loudly in the hall and stood waiting outside the academy.

The wind was freezing cold and the snow was flying heavily. Cui Che stood motionless in the wind and snow, with a thick layer of snow accumulated on his body. From a distance, he looked like a little snowman.

Zhang Wu, who was watching from a distance, couldn't stand it anymore. He couldn't understand why his young master had chosen Xu Wenyuan among the many famous Confucian scholars in Chang'an City.

He approached and wanted to persuade Cui Che to give up, but Cui Che glared at Zhang Wu and sent him away.

Cui Che's teeth were chattering from the cold and his legs were shaking slightly, but he persisted in the end.

When the academy had a break, Xu Wenyuan walked out of the classroom and saw Cui Che covered in snow. He quickly called the academy servant to ask. When he learned that Cui Che had been waiting in the snow for more than an hour, he immediately asked the servant why

No quick report.

The servant was also aggrieved. He wanted to inform Cui Che several times, but the young man was very stubborn and said he didn't want to disturb the teacher's class.

After listening to the servant's explanation, Xu Wenyuan sighed:

"Since I have been interested in learning, I have never seen anyone who respects teachers and values ​​teaching so much and who is sincere in his pursuit of learning."

So he called to Cui Che:

"Young man, please come in to avoid the snow."

The 'little snowman' moved when he heard the sound. His legs were still shaking, but every step he took was very steady. Pei Xiu in the crowd looked at Cui Che's purple face, gritted his teeth, and had tears in his eyes. He finally understood a month ago

Before, Cui Che said there was a way, and it turned out to be this idea.

But he still resisted and did not rush forward. He just heard from the academy servant that Brother Che had been standing in the wind and snow for an hour, and he could not destroy Cui Che's efforts.

"Boy, Cui Che, meet Mr. Xu."

Under the corridor, the young man was so cold that he could not even speak, but he still bowed and saluted.

Xu Wenyuan looked Cui Che up and down and sighed:

"Idiot!"

Then he led Cui Che past the students and came to a house, where he ordered people to light a stove to keep Cui Che warm.

Seeing that Cui Che's chill had subsided, Cui Che was finally admitted to the school.

Perhaps because he was moved by Cui Che's desire to learn, Xu Wenyuan deliberately gave in at first and asked questions that were much easier than those of Pei Xiu who was taking the exam that day. However, seeing that Cui Che responded appropriately, he resumed the difficulty level, but Cui Che still couldn't be troubled.

Brother Che's journey to the west was not just about sightseeing, he still found time to read.

At such an age, he has considerable talent and learning, but he respects his teachers, asks for advice humbly, and has no impetuousness. Xu Wenyuan fell in love with Cui Che more and more, and unexpectedly accepted him as his disciple.

Queen Dou is not the heroine, but she feels that it is unreasonable for a time traveler with a high family background to know that such a good wife who cares for her husband and children is not married and has no idea in her mind.

Keep asking everyone for your votes.
