Returning to Liu Shiwu, Liu Jing first asked Song Gu to take Liu He home, and then rushed to Liu Zong's residence without stopping.
Looking at the box full of copper coins in front of him, Liu Zong was very curious, and finally couldn't help but ask. When he learned that Liu Jing had used books as collateral, he couldn't help but give him a meaningful look.
Liu Zong was extremely efficient in his work and redeemed Liu Liang's father that evening.
Liu Liang's father suffered a lot in prison these past two days. His whole body was scarred and extremely weak. However, he still managed to hold himself up, led his wife and children to the door, and thanked Liu Jing in person.
Liu Liang's father fished for a living, and his mother weaved shoes to support the family. For them, 20,000 yuan was an astronomical amount of money, and they couldn't afford it even if they went bankrupt.
Liu Jing also knew that Liu Liang's family was in a difficult situation, so he gave a very loose condition. He only needed to pay back two thousand yuan a year and pay it off in ten years. Liu Liang's family would like to express their gratitude.
Through this incident, Liu Jing and Liu Zong became a lot closer. When the two were chatting, Liu Jing unexpectedly learned that Liu Pan was finally returning from a break after a month and was preparing to host a banquet at home to entertain guests and friends at noon tomorrow.
Liu Jingpan looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally got Liu Panpan back. He thought to himself: "If he heard about my reputation of 'working hard to support customers' and 'pledge letters to save neighbors', he would probably take the time to see me, right?"
Although Liu Jing is very confident about this, it is not his character to wait passively...
…
The next day, near noon, vehicles were coming towards Longqiu one after another. They were all invited by Liu Pan, the official of the five sense organs, and Du Xi was one of them.
Du Xi is twenty-four years old this year and is from Yingchuan County, Yuzhou. When the world is in chaos, he knows that his hometown Yingchuan is the site of the Fourth War, so he decisively leads his family to move to Xiangyang.
Fan Qin, a fellow countryman, showed his talents in front of Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou, many times. Du Xi believed that Liu Biao was not the one who could save the world, and advised Fan Qin to stay away from Liu Biao. After the incident came out, he was deeply tabooed by Liu Biao, so he had to go south to Changsha to escape.
disaster.
Du Xi was sitting in the cart, looking out the window in a trance. Inadvertently, his eyes narrowed, and he saw a young man in short clothes and straw shoes under a big tree by the road.
A hint of color.
He quietly got out of the car and came to his side. When he saw it, Du Xi couldn't hide his surprise. The vulgar calligraphy he wrote was square, majestic and unique. Du Xi only glanced at it and couldn't take his eyes away again. The young man was like this
Which scholar did you learn a good stroke of calligraphy from?
The young man was writing a poem and had already written two lines. Du Xi thought silently in his heart: "In ancient times, people were born in the early days. They were proud and self-sufficient, embracing simplicity and truth. Their intelligence and cleverness are cute, and they have to wait for unreliable causes. Whoever supports them is really worthy of their support."
Philosopher.”
After reading, Du Xi was greatly shaken in his heart. Jue Chu Sheng Min came from "The Book of Songs·Daya·Sheng Min": "Jue Chu Sheng Min was actually Jiang Yuan." Baopu came from "Laozi": "Seeing simplicity Bao Pu."
Philosopher, from "The Book of Songs·Daya·Yi": "Qi Wei, the philosopher, tell me what to say." In this poem alone, he recognized three allusions.
"Where is the philosopher? At that time, Hou Ji was under the control of the emperor. Where was the support? In fact, it was called sowing. Shun plowed, and Yu also farmed. It was as far away as the Zhou Dian, and the eight political affairs began to eat."
Du Xi continued to read, Shi Wei Hou Ji, from "The Book of Songs·Daya·Shengmin": "Containing life and education, Shi Wei Hou Ji." He also mentioned that Hou Ji taught the people to sow, and Shun and Yu personally cultivated it.
and "Book of Zhou".
From then on, Du Xi was completely impressed by this majestic and elegant poem to encourage farmers.
"The beauty of the land is flourishing, and the land is beautiful. The flowers and trees are prosperous, and the wind is peaceful. There are ladies and gentlemen competing for the time. The mulberry women are in high spirits at night, and the farmers are sleeping in the wild."
"Honors are easy to pass, but harmony is difficult to last. Ji Que brings his wife with him, but he is depressed and married. We are virtuous to each other, but we are still diligent in the long family. When we are together, we hold each other's trains in hand."
"People's livelihood depends on hard work, and if you work diligently, you will not be in need. You can feast in peace and contentment, and you will laugh at the end of the year! If you don't store stones, you will be hungry and cold. If you take care of your family, you will not feel guilty."
The young man wrote a paragraph, and Du Xi read one silently, three consecutive paragraphs, maintaining a very high level, and did not disappoint him. But then the young man stopped writing, and Du Xi couldn't help but feel that his thoughts were not finished, and couldn't help but ask.
He said: "Why don't you continue writing?"
Liu Jing raised his head and saw a young scholar in his twenties, well-dressed and with an extraordinary appearance. From his accent, he thought he was a Northern scholar. He said leisurely: "I need to think carefully about the last paragraph.
.”
Of course he hadn't thought about it. This poem was Tao Yuanming's "Encouraging Farmers". It was already a very shocking thing for him to write the first five paragraphs at his age. The last paragraph involved Confucius, Dong Zhongshu, two sages, and Wan
It's absolutely impossible to write it down, at least not at his age.
Du Xi looked surprised and doubtful, and said: "Did you write this poem?"
Liu Jing nodded and said: "The name of this poem "Encouraging Farmers" is indeed my work."
Du Xi stared at Liu Jing with a serious face. Even with his talent and learning, he couldn't compose such a poem. He felt that the person who could write this poem must be a well-read man with knowledge of ancient and modern times. Why?
Probably made by a young man.
Liu Jing looked at Du Xi calmly and calmly.
After a while, Du Xi couldn't help but laugh at himself, feeling that he was disrespectful to despise the other party because of his youth, and thought to himself: "I didn't expect that there is such a young prodigy hidden among the Jiangxiang reeds."
Thinking of this, Du Xi's face became solemn, he took out the famous thorn made of bamboo slices from his arms and solemnly handed it to Liu Jing.
Liu Jing bowed and took it, saying: "I'm in Tianchou, and I don't carry a famous thorn. I'm rude."
Today, when the gentry class makes friends, they use "famous assassins" to inform each other of their names. The "Customs of Customs" written by Ying Shao, the prefect of Mount Tai, records such a short story:
Xu Zhu, a scholar in Yuzhang, was appointed by Taiwei Huang Qiong, but he had no intention of an official career and did not go to answer the call. Later, when Huang Qiong passed away, he carried food and went to Huang Qiong's grave to worship. Huang Qiong's eldest grandson served as the general of the five senses.
Huang Yan didn't know him. Xu Zu didn't have a thorn on his body, so he left without giving his name. Huang Yan was very surprised.
From this we can see the importance of "Ye Ci" to the social interaction of today's scholar class.
Liu Jing took a closer look and saw neatly written official script on the bamboo piece: "Du Xi of Yingchuan paid his respects again and asked about his daily life, named Zixu."
"Du Xi is a legendary figure in "Three Kingdoms". I didn't expect to catch a big fish today." Liu Jing couldn't help but look at Du Xi. This was the first historical figure of the Three Kingdoms that he had come into contact with since time travel.
Du Xi was born into the Du family in Dingling, Yingchuan. His family had two thousand stones for generations. His great-grandfather Du An and his grandfather Du Gen were both well-known in the world. Du An had little ambition and entered Taixue at the age of thirteen, and was known as a "child prodigy". Du Gen was even more famous.
Later Tan Sitong's poem "Inscription on the Wall in Prison": "I looked at the door and stopped thinking about Zhang Jian, and endured death for a moment to wait for Du Gen; I smiled at the sky with my horizontal sword, leaving behind my liver and gallbladder." The Du Gen mentioned above refers to him.
Liu Jing bowed and saluted: "I have admired Du Jun for a long time, and I am very lucky to meet you today. I am Liu Jing, courtesy name Zhongda, a descendant of the Liu family in Longqiu."
Du Xixiao asked: "Listen to me, do you know me?"
Liu Jingjing nodded and said: "I have been studying in Xiangyang for two years, and I was fortunate enough to be a disciple of Song Gong who worked in the Five Classics. It was not until recently that my brother died of illness that I returned to my hometown. Du Jun's name is probably unknown to everyone in Xiangyang. There are rumors in the market.
It was said that Du Jun moved to Changsha to avoid Liu Jingzhou, but I didn't expect the rumors to be true."
"It turns out that he was a disciple of Zhongzi of the Song Dynasty. No wonder he is so knowledgeable and talented." Du Xi suddenly realized, and then sighed: "In the past, Duke Huan of Qi led the princes to respect the emperor of Zhou, and Duke Wen of Jin led his uncle to take in King Zhou Xiang, all of which achieved hegemony.
As a clan member of the Han Dynasty, Liu Jingsheng did not want to work hard for the king of Chang'an, kill the rebels, rescue the emperor, and revitalize the country. Instead, he took Yuan Benchu as the leader of the alliance and based himself in Jingzhou to observe the changes. All knowledgeable people are heartbroken. I really don't want to serve such a person.
The only way to avoid mediocrity is to stay far away."
Liu Jing deeply agreed with this: "Liu Jingzhou is a graceful gentleman. He has the talents of the three men in ordinary times. He can ensure peace for one party in troubled times, but he is not a person who saves the world."
"Liu Jingsheng...forget it, let's not mention it." Du Xi shook his head and said: "In my opinion, he is not yet twenty years old, right? I have only seen one person in my life who is not young but has unrivaled talent.
, I think you should also know who he is, he is the world-famous Wang Can and Wang Zhongxuan."
Wang Can was a native of Shanyang, Yanzhou. His great-grandfather Wang Gong and grandfather Wang Chang were both officials up to the rank of Sangong. His father Wang Qian served as General He Jin for a long time.
Wang Can lived in the capital for a long time and was very talented. At the age of seventeen, he was called as the Minister of Huangmen of Six Hundred Stones. Even the great scholar Cai Yong became friends with him regardless of the huge age gap between the two. Wang Can is only nineteen years old this year and is currently
Currently living in Xiangyang.
Liu Jing nodded and said: "Wang Zhongxuan's name has naturally been heard for a long time."
Du Xi was very surprised to see that Liu Jing always had a calm expression and was neither humble nor arrogant when talking about Wang Can.
