The white-faced scholar said: "Everyone, everyone, do you think what he said is right?"
Since ancient times, people have watched the excitement without fear of big trouble, and most of the people watching follow the trend.
The Western Liang Dynasty was attached to the Northern Zhou Dynasty. The territory was narrow, the cities were dilapidated, the dwellings were destroyed, and there were constant wars. Except for some poetry gatherings held by wealthy families, ordinary people had not seen such scenes in the city for a long time.<
/p>
After the white-faced scholar finished speaking, people around him began to whisper.
At this time, the middle-aged steward also came over. Just now, Chen Chang saw that he had gone to a carriage full of mud and water on the street. He must have gone to talk to someone.
The middle-aged steward said to Chen Chang: "Sir, everyone is so kind to me. Since you have arrived today, you should write a poem before leaving. My master has ordered that no matter whether you are selected or not, you will be given a hundred coins as a gift!"<
/p>
I heard that you can get paid for writing poems, and the white-faced scholars and others all had smiles on their faces. It was not in vain to work hard in the rain.
Those who quit prematurely had regrets on their faces. If they had known that they would still be hanging around until now, they would not be able to write serious verses, but limericks and the like are not difficult.
Without waiting for Chen Chang to answer, the fat scholar said with a warm smile on his face: "That's very good. I'll settle down in the middle school for a while. Since everyone says so and you have money to take it, don't refuse. Although our scholars nowadays are not as talented as
It will definitely be sold to the emperor's family, but it doesn't hurt to take it out for everyone to appreciate, how about it?"
At this moment, a horrified shout came from the distance: "The Jiangling Defense Chief has brought his men!"
Chen Changxun walked over and saw a group of people who seemed to be driven over. Curses, cries, and screams rang out one after another, but these sounds were quickly drowned out by the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground.
The sound of hooves was like thunder, rolling and engulfing everything in the way. Behind the crowd, a group of soldiers came menacingly.
The "recruitment" scene in front of Chen Chang was also affected. The scene suddenly became chaotic. The candidates completely lost their scholarly demeanor and gathered around the middle-aged manager. They had to fight at the critical moment.
"Use me!" said the white-faced scholar.
The thin black scholar said: "You can use me, even the four guans!"
"Damn, you are so cruel, I don't want five guans anymore, three guans!" the fat scholar said angrily.
As the soldiers approached, the competition among the scholars soon escalated into insults, punches and kicks. The middle-aged steward was unable to escape and hurriedly called the accompanying servants to rescue him.
Chen Chang didn't want to get into trouble, so he raised his legs and left.
Unexpectedly, the wind behind his head was so strong that he was so frightened that he tried to escape but was unable to do so. He was punched hard in the back of his head and fell to the ground.
At the moment before falling into coma, I heard the anxious voice of the middle-aged manager: "It's him, take him away!"
……
On the border between Houliang and Dazhou, Wang Huan and others stood on horseback and looked from a distance. They saw that the Zhou army's camp had Yacha deer antlers buried, Ziwu camp and the general's tent were set up, and iron caltrops were scattered outside the camp gate.
, tripping the horse rope, a big flag with the word "handsome" written on it was flying in the wind.
There are very few soldiers in the camp, and occasionally a group of patrolling soldiers will pass by, but the more so, the more solemn the atmosphere becomes.
Wei Chuanzheng said worriedly: "Miss, the Dazhou military camp is very strange. It seems that something big happened in Chang'an!"
Wang Huan nodded. Zhou Jun's military discipline is usually very strict, but many soldiers can be seen inside and outside the military camp.
Besides, the weather is good today, so we should use this opportunity to train troops.
Wei Chuanzheng asked again: "Do you think Da Qi in the east will send troops to attack Da Zhou again?"
"Maybe it's the same as two years ago!" Wang Huan said in a deep voice.
As Wang Wei's daughter, she knows a lot about military and state affairs, not only in the Later Liang Dynasty, but also in the other three more powerful countries.
So, she told Wei Chuanzheng and others what happened between Dazhou and Daqi two years ago.
It turns out that after the Northern Wei Dynasty split into the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the Western Wei Dynasty, two powerful officials, Gao Huan and Yuwentai, came to power respectively. Both of them carried out various reforms in order to prosper the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the Western Wei Dynasty. The purpose was to lay a solid foundation for the establishment of Qi and Zhou Dynasty.
p>
In fact, after Qi and Zhou were established one after another, Qi's national power has always been superior to Zhou's. Although it is not one-sided, Qi is always stronger than Zhou. This is inseparable from Qi's inheritance of most of the Northern Wei and Qi's occupation of the rich areas of the Central Plains.
.
Since the Battle of Changshe, the long border between Zhou and Qi (Western Wei Dynasty) suddenly became quiet.
Not to mention large and medium-sized wars, there have only been a few small-scale wars.
After the founding of Qi, the biggest military friction between Zhou and Qi occurred in the ninth year of Qi Tianbao, which was February two years ago. Sima Xiaonan, the governor of Yuzhou in northern Qi, suddenly defected to Zhou.
Sima Xiaonan was the eldest son of Sima Ziru, an important minister of Qi, and the beloved son-in-law of Emperor Xianwu of Qi Gao Huan.
Because of these two prominent identities, Sima Xiaonan was able to enjoy himself in the Qi officialdom. Logically speaking, he had no reason to betray the Qi Dynasty.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but Sima Xiaonan’s defection is almost exactly the same as the defection of Gao Shen, the governor of Northern Yuzhou fifteen years ago, and the reason was both because of a woman.
Gao Shen defected because Gao Cheng attempted to rape Gao Shen's wife, Li, while Sima Xiaonan's reason for defecting was exactly the opposite of Gao Shen's. Sima Xiaonan and his wife, Princess Gao, had a very bad relationship as a couple and often fought at home.<
/p>
In anger, the princess reported Sima Xiaonan's black accusation to her brother Gao Yang.
Coincidentally, at that time, Gao Huan, the king of Shangdang, was suspected by Gao Yang and fled from Yedu, causing a sensation in the officialdom.
Daqi officials all believed that Gao Huan was very likely to join forces with Sima Xiaonan, who was stationed at Hulao Pass, to overthrow Gao Yang. Naturally, Gao Yang suspected Sima Xiaonan.
Because these two reasons interacted with each other, Sima Xiaonan felt that he could no longer stay in the east and decided to change jobs.
Yu Wenhu was extremely surprised when he heard that Sima Xiaonan was changing his employer.
General Da Xiwu and General Yang Zhong of the Zhu Kingdom of the Great Zhou Dynasty left Hongnong with 5,000 elite cavalry, and broke into Longtan and Tiger's Den for 500 miles to pick up Sima and help him out.
At that time, the Qi army's combat effectiveness was very fierce. Once it encountered the main force of the Qi army, five thousand men may not be enough to feed the Qi army. Da Xiwu was frightened and did not dare to advance.
Yang Zhong's status is not as high as that of Xi Wu, but he is famous as Yang Daudao. He has been to Jiangdong, not to mention the Central Plains.
With Yang Zhong's insistence, the Zhou army, determined to die, broke through the many obstacles of the Qi army and successfully captured Sima Xiaonan to Chang'an.
Wei Chuanzheng and others, many of whom did not know the matter very carefully, nodded frequently after listening to Wang Huan's story.
Wang Huan said: "From the current point of view, it is very likely that there is friction between Dazhou and Daqi. It is a pity that our back beam is weak and has not done anything at all."
Wei Chuanzheng said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, must have reported this matter to His Majesty at this time."
Wang Huan smiled miserably: "If Da Zhou is defeated, we will just change the master!"
Wei Chuanzheng and others all hung their heads. It was really uncomfortable to be a subjugated slave.
