www.lnmao.org, the fastest update of my beloved ugly girl, please give me more advice on the latest chapter!
"Sir, you also like Ding Daru's books?" Chen Qingxuan was obviously a little surprised, and then he was unabashedly surprised. In a remote place like Ninggu Tower, he rarely met close friends. At the moment, he was also sitting on the He got on the edge of the kang and murmured to Zhong Mingwei, "This General History of Ancient and Modern Times is Ding Daru's most proud masterpiece. Ding Daru was only in his early twenties, and he had already written such an incredible masterpiece. Qingxuan has always been the most I admire Ding Daru, but I didn’t expect that my husband would also like Ding Daru’s books. I really have a close friend with you, sir.”
The Ding Daru mentioned by Chen Qingxuan is Taifu Ding Yunwen. Ding Yunwen is the most famous great scholar in the Zhou Dynasty and has great prestige among scholars. Naturally, Ding Yunwen is also Zhong Mingwei's Taifu and Zhong Mingwei's father-in-law Taishan. .
"Ding Daru's most proud masterpiece is not this one." Zhong Mingwei stared at the yellowed book, gently opened a page, and continued.
Although this "General History of Ancient and Modern Times" is only a thin volume, it is all-inclusive, covering everything from Yao and Shun to the current dynasty. In his early teens, his writing power and broad-mindedness were truly unparalleled in the world. This "General History of Ancient and Modern Times" established Ding Yunwen's position in the literary world of the Zhou Dynasty.
As a disciple of Ding Yunwen, Zhong Mingwei knew this great scholar in the literary world who was admired by many stars better than others. Ding Yunwen never mentioned this "General History of Ancient and Modern Times". Zhong Mingwei had always been curious about this matter, but Ding Yunwen never explained it. It was once when Ding Yunwen was drunk that he told the whole story. "General History of Ancient and Modern Times" recounted thousands of years of glory, but did not touch on the overthrow of the dynasty or the suffering of the people. Ding Yunwen, who was born in a noble family and was young and vigorous, did not realize it at the time. At this point, Ding Yunwen, who was now middle-aged and in the imperial court, was increasingly ashamed of this. Therefore, he never mentioned this "General History of Ancient and Modern Times" which was famous all over the world.
"Sir, do you know Ding Daru?" Chen Qingxuan was startled and looked at Zhong Mingwei.
Zhong Mingwei said nothing, looked up at Chen Qingxuan, and then continued to flip through the "General History of Ancient and Modern Times", which was regarded as acquiescence.
Chen Qingxuan's mind was a little confused. He remembered that A Chou had said that they were from the capital, and that he had guessed that they were Ning Guta who had been demoted by the imperial court. At this time, he thought again and realized that it was not impossible for Zhong Mingwei to recognize Ding Yunwen, but Ding Yunwen is a dignified and upright first-class princefu, and someone who can meet Ding Yunwen is naturally not an ordinary person.
Chen Qingxuan looked Zhong Mingwei up and down. In the past, he only felt that Zhong Mingwei was covered with the oppressive feeling of having been in a high position for a long time. Now he felt that he was even more enigmatic, but...
What does this have to do with him?
Now, they are neighbors or people with the same status. No matter what kind of high-ranking official Zhong Mingwei was in the past, it has nothing to do with the present, and it will not affect their neighborly interactions.
"I'm not afraid of Mr.'s jokes. The reason why I have studied so hard all these years is that one day I can go to Beijing to take the exam and be lucky enough to meet Ding Daru," Chen Qingxuan said with a smile, but couldn't help but sigh, "It's just Now that Ding Daru has left Beijing and is traveling around the world, even if I can come to Beijing to take the exam, I will never see him again."
Zhong Mingwei was startled and suddenly looked up at Chen Qingxuan: "Ding Daru left Beijing? When did it happen?"
"It happened more than half a year ago," Chen Qingxuan said. "It is said that after the deposed prince fell, Ding Daru asked himself to be crowned. Long live the Lord tried several times to persuade him to stay, but finally had to agree to Ding Daru's resignation. Please, Ding Daru left Beijing and was never heard from again."
"Is the news reliable?" Zhong Mingwei frowned, his tone a little heavy.
"Reliable, it was said by Master Zhifu Fang himself. It must be correct." Chen Qingxuan nodded. He shouldn't have said this to Zhong Mingwei, but looking at Zhong Mingwei's expression, he said it anyway, "Prefect Fang Your Excellency and Ding Daru are old friends. He was very worried about Ding Daru's situation. He once wrote to the capital to inquire. However, Ding Daru had already left the capital at that time and did not receive a letter from the prefect. Therefore, the prefect also knew that Ding Daru was After leaving Beijing, I don’t know where Ding Daru is going.”
Zhong Mingwei looked at the yellowed "General History of Ancient and Modern Times" with some confusion, and after a long while he sighed softly: "It's better to go back."
