After the apprenticeship ceremony officially started, Du Ke sat in the upper seat, with Grandpa Qin, Father Qin, and Shen Lixian on the lower side, because this was a family matter, even if Shen Lixian had a high status, he could not sit in front of Grandpa Qin and Qin Fang. Qin Shouye, Qin Shoucheng and Niudan stood behind Grandpa Qin and Father Qin.

On the other side are Grandma Qin and Mother Qin, while Qin Siya and Qin Qiuya are standing behind them.

Then, Qin Fang and Yang Haiyan came in together. After they came in, Yang Haiyan sat next to Qin's mother, and Qin Fang began to make four salutations.

For the four prostrations, of course, four prostrations are required, four consecutive prostrations, but each prostration is very particular, not only on the hands and feet, but also when kneeling, which foot to kneel on first is also very particular, for example, when getting up, get up first. that foot.

After four salutations, the left foot is the first to kneel, and the second is to bend the right foot.

But when you get up, it is the opposite, the right foot is the first, and the left is the second.

Every time is a bow and then bow, not urgent, to be calm.

Fortunately, before Du Ke came, Qin Fang had asked someone to teach him. He was looking for a master from the county college, who was a student of Master Confucius. He was extremely familiar and particular about these etiquettes, and he was meticulous when teaching. , every action is very standard.

When Qin was out of school, every movement was up to standard.

However, when the family did the four salutations, there were still no students who were careful when they worshipped Confucius, and there were still singing officials at that time.

And at home, don't pay attention to these.

After Qin let him go for four weeks, Du Ke gave him a knife.

Under normal circumstances, teachers give students the Four Treasures of the Study, but Qin Fang is a military general, and it is a waste to give him the Four Treasures of the Study, so Du Ke gave weapons. It has to be said that although Du Ke accepted the apprentice this time, although it was ordered by the emperor, he was also sincere and thoughtful, otherwise, a set of four treasures of the study would be a problem.

For generals, a good weapon is like an extra life. The four treasures of the study have no role in Qin Fang's hands, but a good knife is different.

Although Qin Fang had never touched a good weapon, when he caught this knife, he could feel its difference from the weight in his hand.

Du Ke said: "Look at it, do you like it?" This question is asking... Even if you don't like it, the elder can only say that you like it.

But when Du Ke asked this, he must have expected Qin Fang to like it. Why predict? Because it's a good knife.

Qin Fang pulled the knife out of the scabbard, and a cold light flashed from the tip of the knife.

Shen Lixian first said, "Good knife."

Everyone looked at Shen Lixian, even Qin Fang looked at him. Speaking of which, he only knew that it was a good knife when he held the knife, but he couldn't tell just by looking at it. The reason why he thought the knife was good , nor how much he knows about knives. But... this knife is really heavy.

Du Ke raised his eyebrows: "Do you recognize?"

Shen Lixian said: "It is said that before the founding of Qiguo, when the ancestor of the Du family accompanied Taiyuanzu to fight the world, he had a big sword in his hand, which was very domineering. But after the establishment of Qiguo, the descendants of the Du family abandoned Wu and Congwen, and that sword was no longer there. I've seen it before. I also heard that the knife has an inscription written by Taiyuanzu, do you know if it exists?"

Qin Fang didn't expect this knife to have such a history. If it is true, then he can't ask for it: "Teacher, this knife..."

Du Ke waved his hand: "It's not this one. Do you know the origin of Qiguo?"

"This..." Qin Fang hesitated for a moment, and said truthfully, "The previous dynasty was corrupt, and Taiyuanzu took his subordinates to rise up..."

Du Ke interrupted him: "Everyone knows about this, and there are records in the history books, so do you know, what did they rely on to fight?" Du Ke asked Qin Fang, and also turned aside Shen Lixian, "Li Xian, do you know ?"

Taiyuanzu: The founding emperor of Qiguo.

Shen Lixian shook his head: "I really don't know."

At this time, Yang Haiyan said, "Robbing the tomb."

As soon as she spoke, everyone looked at her, even Du Ke, with surprise in his eyes: "How do you say this? Where did you hear it?"

This is actually not because Yang Haiyan knows the plot, and it is not mentioned in the plot. When Yang Haiyan first discovered that she was wearing a book, she had read a lot of Qiguo's books, including laws and miscellaneous notes. When it came to Yunxiang County and King Liang, she read it from miscellaneous notes. The same is true for tomb raiders.

It's just that this kind of thing is disgraceful, so she didn't mention it to Qin Fang.

Now that Du Ke asked, Yang Haiyan said frankly: "I have read the miscellaneous notes. It was mentioned in the miscellaneous notes that Taiyuanzu was originally a commoner, and his family had some permanent property, so he could barely be regarded as a small landlord. He revolted with his subordinates and had no weapons in his hands. So someone mentioned, robbing tombs and excavating weapons. Generally speaking, the identity of the tomb owners who have weapons in the tombs is not ordinary, and this weapon is definitely not bad. Teacher, I just read it from miscellaneous notes, and I don't know. true and false."

Du Ke looked at Yang Haiyan with admiration: "This matter is indeed true."

Shen Lixian: "But there is no record in the history books."

Du Ke: "History books are written by people, so they can be changed naturally. Moreover, the history books you see may not be the real history books. What the Xiangjun said is true. People with deep family backgrounds basically know that the royal family It has never been forbidden for others to mention it, because no matter how Taiyuanzu got up, he ended the corrupt rule of the previous dynasty and gave the people a chance to breathe. What I want to say is that back then, the sword of my ancestor Du family was also It came like this.

That sword accompanied the ancestor for half his life, and Taiyuanzu mentioned the word on the sword, so the ancestor of the sword was reluctant to use it again, and it was enshrined in the ancestral hall of the Du family. After that, the ancestors exhausted their efforts and searched for all the materials, in order to hit the same knife. The blade and body weight are exactly the same as that one. However, once the materials were found and the sword was struck, the ancestors were too old to hold the sword. Therefore, this knife has been in the warehouse of the Du family, and it has not been opened yet.

Speaking of which, it might be fate. Since then, the Du family has never made a military commander. Even if there are disciples who practice martial arts, they like to play swords, but no one likes to use knives. So, this knife is presented to you. "

Qin Fang didn't think that there was such a reason for this knife, so he knelt down again: "Thank you, teacher, I will definitely use this knife to guard Qiguo and celebrate the glory of our country."

Duke nodded: "Okay."

Next, everyone started to eat breakfast. After breakfast, Qin Fang took Du Ke and Shen Lixian to the Beast Mountain Taoist Temple. Yang Haiyan ordered people to prepare a lunch box for them. The cakes, noodles, and tea in the lunch box could fill their stomachs. It took an hour to climb the road, and I was afraid that I would be hungry.

The pastries are small cakes and mung bean cakes, the noodles are cold skin noodles, cold cucumbers, and the tea is mung bean soup. These were put in the ice bucket and asked Qin Fang to carry them.

After Qin Fang and the others left, Yang Haiyan was going to start the evening banquet. In the morning, I did the apprenticeship ceremony, and in the evening I invited my relatives and friends to have dinner. What's more, Du Ke was here for business, and he also wanted to meet local officials, so he simply took advantage of the evening banquet.

Fortunately, there were no officials in Yunxiang County, including the county magistrate of the seventh grade Yang, the family of the county magistrate of the eighth grade, and the Song master from the nine grades. Finally, Wei Ting, Qin Sanshu and his wife.

Yang Haiyan listed the list of guests, and the magistrate of Yang, the county magistrate, and the master of Song asked people to send messages. Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin sent guards to drive the carriage over there.

After these people were arranged, Yang Haiyan thought about it and went to Liuxinyuan again: "Mother."

Qin mother and Qin grandma are lucky to have Yang Haiyan there, otherwise they still don't know what to do. Now that they have Yang Haiyan, they seem to be waiting to eat. Seeing Yang Haiyan coming over at this moment, Qin's mother hurriedly asked, "Yanyan, you have worked hard these days. If there is anything you need your mother, you can tell me." Qin's mother is also embarrassed. If this is ordinary people, like them In Baili Village, the mother-in-law should be busy, so why is the daughter-in-law so busy. But there is no way, whoever told them not to understand.

Yang Haiyan said, "Don't worry, mom, I'm not working hard. Besides, it's a little harder for my husband, and I'm willing to do it."

Hearing Yang Haiyan say this, Qin's mother couldn't help laughing: "You child..."

Yang Haiyan: "Mother, I'm here now to ask you, there will be a dinner party in the house tonight to celebrate the master's apprenticeship. I invited the third uncle and the third aunt to come here. No, I think the third uncle is also there. , do you want to come over?"

When it comes to the third brother who is not in harmony at home, Qin's mother doesn't even think about it: "No, let them stay there." Her own labor was exchanged for food, and Mother Qin didn't want them to come to the mansion and run away without paying attention. In fact, in the field of the military camp, the third brother wanted to leave the tadpole and run away, but was caught by the guards.

Hearing what she said, Yang Haiyan smiled and said, "I'll ask someone to deliver some delicious food to the third uncle and the tadpole in the evening. It's fine if this person isn't there. Since we've all arrived in Yunxiang County, we can't eat less. ."

When Mother Qin heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Hey, it's fine for you to call the shots." She disliked her brother and nephew as one thing, but it was still uncomfortable for others to dislike her. Seeing that her daughter-in-law is still polite to her brother and nephew at this moment, and that she can still think of them, she is also happy. No matter if the daughter-in-law is really related to them, or the friendship in face, at least in her face, she is happy that she can still have this friendship. Qin's mother once again sighed that this daughter-in-law married really well. But when it comes to marrying a wife, Qin's mother thought of Qin's third aunt, so she pulled Yang Haiyan and asked in a low voice, "Yanyan, is there any young man beside A Fang who is close to him?"

Yang Haiyan was stunned, seeing Qin's mother suddenly asking this, her heart tightened, wouldn't this be about betrothing Si Ya? "Mum, why are you asking this? Could it be Si Ya..."

Mother Qin hurriedly said: "No, no. It's your third aunt and third uncle. They want to tell Sanya who is next to Ah Fang, thinking that with Ah Fang, the young man will certainly not bully Sanya. Moreover, they can still To win people over to Ah Fang. I don't know if it's good or not, so I'm here to ask you, what do you think? Is it possible?"
