[Everyone, new books are not easy. Please keep them and give me some flowers, okay?] The monk saw Yunzheng's anger rising, but he didn't take it seriously. After being "challenged" many times in a row, even a Buddha would be angry.
, not to mention the young Yun Zheng? So he behaved very calmly, and even clasped his hands together gracefully: "Amitabha, the little monk's name is Zhongde. This first couplet is titled after the little monk's name: Zhongde."
"How to cultivate virtue among famous flowers from ten miles away"
The simple first couplet was obviously just an appetizer. Naturally, Yun Zheng would not take this kind of bastard in his eyes. Without any consideration, Yun Zheng spoke: "Building tens of thousands of mansions is not as good as cultivating one's body."
"
The Thirteenth Princess smiled, Master Shen nodded secretly, the Qin brothers and sisters were a little surprised, but also a little happy, Lin Xi smiled as if he had picked up a weasel that saw a chicken
Only Lin Sheng was a little angry. He was provocative but didn't bother Yun Zheng. It already made him lose face. The second guy suddenly sent this thief to cause trouble. What's the big deal? However,
If the second brother really plans to join forces with him to deal with Yun Zheng, it would be a good choice.
Lin Sheng knew that judging from the current situation in the Wei Empire, the Yun family would definitely not stand on his side, because the basis of his strength came from his uncle's family, the Leng family. If the Yun family were to join his camp, the Yun family would
The strength of the family is definitely not willing to succumb to that of the Leng family, and if he puts more emphasis on the Yun family, his foundation may not be preserved. The gap between the Leng family is indeed a bit big: the direct descendants of the Leng family, Chengyu Seven Guards, have a total of 39,200 people.
There are a total of 78,400 troops under its control in the remaining areas under its jurisdiction. The defense area includes Sichuan and Guizhou provinces, with a total strength of nearly 120,000. The main task is to defend Tubo and Dali. The Yanyun Twelve Guards, a direct descendant of the Yun family, has 67,200 people. The area under its jurisdiction
There are 134,400 troops under its control in the two provinces of Hebei and Jin, and the total army is as high as 200,000. Its task is to defend the Liao Kingdom, the biggest enemy of the Wei Empire.
Dali has always been relatively honest, and there is basically no possibility of trespassing. There has been no movement in Tubo for almost twenty years, so even Lin Sheng is somewhat doubtful about the current actual combat capabilities of the Leng family. On the other hand, the Yun family, let alone the distant ones, is
Counting from the time when Yun Lan defeated the main force of the Liao army seventeen years ago, until now, in these seventeen years, both sides have fought four battles with more than 100,000 men each, and seven battles with 30,000 to 50,000 men each.
, not counting the other thousands of people coming and going, the Yun family relied on the 200,000 people under their command to forcefully block the Liao Dynasty, which was at its peak, from the Great Wall. Compared with the Zhou family, the second military family in the Wei Dynasty,
It is even more difficult to resist Xixia in the north, and resist Tubo in the west - after all, Tubo has been dormant for too long, and Xixia's strength is limited.
The Yun family is so powerful that even if Lin Sheng wanted to win over him, he couldn't afford it. Judging from the relationship between Yun Zheng and Lin Xi, the Yun family is probably very likely to become the powerful backing of the Liuye Party. In this way,
He had no choice but to suppress him, which was the fundamental reason why he started fighting with Yun Zheng as soon as he came here today.
As for the prince, his strength is naturally based on his rightful name, Emperor Wanchang's lingering affection for the late Empress Gu, and the response of his uncle's Gu family's civil servant group in the court. His biggest problem is that he does not have the four major military forces.
The support of any family: Needless to say the Leng family, the Yun family seems to be more inclined to the sixth at the moment. The Jiang family of Guangdong and Guangxi has always been neutral and its main combat power is its navy. There is no hope, so among the four, the most likely
The only ones he can use are the Zhou family who dominates Guanlong. The Zhou family's direct relatives Guanzhong Jiuwei have 50,400 people, plus the other 100,800 guards in the jurisdiction. The whole army has a total of 150,000 troops. Because it has been at war with Xixia all the year round, its combat strength
It is also good and the most advantageous point is that the Zhou family and the Yun family have always been at odds. Considering these circumstances, it is logical for the prince to suppress Yun Zheng in exchange for the favor and even support of the Zhou family.
So when the prince sent this monk to get involved, Lin Sheng felt unhappy, but for the sake of the big plan, he decided to endure it for a while: now it was two heroes fighting for hegemony, but if the Yun family really got involved with Lao Liu, wouldn't it be
It became a tripartite confrontation? Once the situation got complicated, anything could happen, so what? Lin Sheng decided without having to think too much: first join forces with the second child to take down the sixth child.
Therefore, Lin Sheng, who had already settled his calculations, said nothing. When Heng Xuzi saw that Lin Sheng was silent, he secretly rejoiced that he had unexpectedly found a slope. Out of caution, he quickly searched his mind and prepared to think of several difficult connections.
Monk Zhongde naturally knew that there was no chance of this couplet stumbling over Yunzheng, so he already knew the second couplet well in his mind. He smiled and said: "When the young monk came to Luoyang, he passed by the Yellow River and came across a sentence: The two crossings at the head of the South Bridge are like shuttles, and the beautiful scenery in the river is woven across the river.
"
Yunzheng frowned slightly, walked back and forth a few steps, and pointed to the west: "The tower at the end of the west bank is like a pen, writing articles from the sky."
Mr. Shen couldn't help but high-five and praised: "What a good fight! What a good mood! What a momentum!"
Monk Zhongde also nodded in praise and said: "Young Master Yun is indeed very talented." After thinking for a while, he added: "The right path shows the way around, and there are precious trees, golden ropes, and Buddhist bowls with incense in the ten directions."
Yunzheng sneered in his heart, "What's the matter? Ordinary couplets can't defeat me, so they are turning to their old profession again and want to use Buddhist verse couplets to embarrass me? Then you are really wrong. Think about when your young master and I were in college."
However, he is known as the prince of miscellaneous books. Although he has eighteen kinds of martial arts, he is only speaking in general terms. He is not doing research, and I don’t need to be proficient. After thinking about it, he said calmly: "King Jue opened the pure land and tried the Feng Shui of four pine trees.
Moon, Fairy Pearl"
Lin Xi secretly approached the Thirteenth Princess and lowered her voice and asked: "Thirteenth Sister, do you think it's strange? Yunzheng has been a killer since he was a child. When did he read any Buddhist classics and actually be able to fight with a monk?
A verse couplet?"
The Thirteenth Princess glanced at him: "When will Brother Zheng read a book, do I have to report it to you first? It's rare to see it, but it's weird."
Lin Xi choked and rolled her eyes, muttering angrily: "Girls really look outwards."
Monk Zhongde wandered back and forth for a while and said in a deep voice: "The sound of wind, water, insects, birds, and Sanskrit chants, the total of three hundred and sixty days of bell ringing, is silent and silent."
Yun Zheng was disdainful: Long couplets? Hey, what we are good at is long couplets! After thinking about it for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "The color of the moon, the color of the mountains, the color of the grass, the color of the trees, the color of the clouds, and the color of the 48,000-foot peaks."
, all colors are empty”
Zhong De's face was gloomy, his brows were deeply furrowed, and he wanted to think of the next couplet, but Yun Zheng said coldly: "In the first couplet, you used the Dharma name as the couplet to show your kindness. I won't argue with you, and then you have already made three consecutive couplets."
, all three couplets have been countered, I cannot continue playing with you forever, your chance to come up with questions has been used up."
Zhong De didn't expect Yun Zheng to attack suddenly, and he was a little confused. But what he said was reasonable. We can't just keep confronting him like this. He could only smile bitterly and said: "Master Yun said that it was the young monk who overstepped his bounds."
"
A hint of sneer appeared at the corner of Yunzheng's mouth: "Monk Zhongde, I am a magnanimous young master. I will not trouble you with any questions today. I am just sending you a couplet to encourage you. Please listen carefully - the first couplet is: Sunset Incense Remains
, sweep away all the ordinary thoughts, the second couplet is: When the furnace is cold and the fire is gone, the horse of mind must be tied tightly."
Zhong De was stunned for a moment, not expecting such a thing to happen, but he could only hold back his anger and clasped his hands together and said: "Thank you Mr. Yun for the couplet." After saying this, he thought of the last couplet that Yun Zheng gave to him. "When the sun sets and the incense fades, sweep away a little of the worldly mind; when the furnace is cold and the fire is gone, you must tie the horse of your mind tightly." It seems that there is something wrong, but for a while, I can't figure it out, which makes me very depressed.
Just when Zhong De was about to say goodbye, he heard Mr. Shen suddenly burst into laughter, then pointed at Yun Zheng, laughing so hard that he was out of breath: "Brother Yun, haha, you... are really... Your! Brother Yu is finally convinced! Haha!"
When Yun Zheng saw it, he knew that Shen Ju had understood it first, and he laughed and said: "Just average, third in the world."
Everyone around was a little confused. Yun Zheng's couplet was obviously a motto, warning the monks to be less ordinary and not to have twisted thoughts. What was it that was worthy of such laughter?
The Thirteenth Princess couldn't help but ask: "Brother Shen, what riddle are you trying to solve? Come on, tell me!"
Shen Ju managed to stop laughing: "This is not me, Shen, playing charades, but Brother Yun playing charades - everyone, look, the word "香" has gone down, is it the word "HE" for He Miao? The word "Fan" for "Fan Xin", remove that bit, Is it a few words?"
The Thirteenth Princess was startled, then nodded and said, "Yes, so what?"
Shen Ju said: "What is the word '禾' on the top and 'ji' on the bottom?"
The Thirteenth Princess smiled and said: "Of course it's the word 'bald' - ah?" She was moved in her heart and said in surprise: "You mean, the last sentence, 'the furnace is cold and the fire is gone' is the word 'house', and then The word "horse" in the family name means "the horse must be tied tightly", so it became the word "donkey", and when connected together, it is - bald...donkey!"
Everyone was startled, and then burst into laughter. Even Lin Sheng, Heng Xuzi and the middle-aged scribe couldn't help laughing. The thirteenth princess even fell down with laughter: "Zheng... Yun Young Master, you are so evil!"
Yunzheng hurriedly said modestly: "No, no, you're so polite, the princess is over-praised." However, although he was polite, there was a smile on his face. Apparently, he didn't feel "over-praised" at all.
