"Invite silk thread to wind a long bow?" Guo Yu murmured to himself
Mr. Shen thought for a while and praised with a smile: "It's really wonderful! The introduction word is exactly the word "bow" plus a vertical line. The vertical line is naturally the silk thread, and the "silk thread winding" and "golden hook fishing" are exactly the same.
"relative"
The Thirteenth Princess smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into thin crescents, and she was so happy. Some people say that love does not need a reason. That is nonsense. There is no love without a reason in the world, and there is no hate and love without a reason.
Even if there is no specific reason before it happens, there must be some specific basic conditions, such as being tall and handsome, talented, having a compatible personality, holding a high position, having a well-off family, high moral character, etc., etc., etc., depending on the person
And there is no possibility that a woman with good conditions in all aspects will fall in love with a man who is useless in any aspect - if it does happen, it can only be said that this woman's requirements are too special - people love her
But even so, "scum" to this extent seems to have become a condition in itself, at least a condition that meets the requirements of this strange woman - then the previous statement still holds true
The Thirteenth Princess originally liked a hero who was highly skilled in martial arts and had protected her since childhood. The advantages of this "hero" covered up the flaws in his talent. However, flaws are always flaws. Even if you selectively ignore them, they are still objective.
However, the Thirteenth Princess now suddenly discovered that the biggest shortcoming of the person she cared about in her heart had disappeared overnight like the wind blowing away - the so-called surprise is inexplicable.
Another person who is particularly happy is naturally Lin Xi. If he wants to succeed in becoming the third force competing for the throne independently of the crown prince and the fourth prince, in addition to relying on the reputation of his uncle's Qin family in both the government and the public, he also needs a powerful and capable person.
Powerful force, regardless of any dynasty, requires force as the basis of its rule, and the same goes for fighting for the throne. Once a formidable armed force is in hand, no matter what actions his opponent wants to make, he must
First consider whether if you anger that sharp sword, you will be involved. Even the old emperor cannot ignore the attitude of a powerful armed force - such as the attitude of the Yun family.
Therefore, although Lin Xi and Yun Zheng have been playing well together since they were children, but now that Yun Zheng is returning to Beijing, Lin Xi, the majestic prince, comes to invite him personally. If he has no intention of wooing him, I'm afraid he won't even think about it.
Will believe that this does not matter whether it is noble or despicable, and it has nothing to do with the authenticity of the friendship between the two - it is just mutual interests and needs. Of course, Lin Xi needs the support of the largest military family in the world, and the Yun family does not need to be there either.
When a dynasty changes, the only difference is that the Yun family has a slightly wider choice than Lin Xi for the time being - so it is Lin Xi who comes to Yun Zheng, not Yun Zheng.
he
Lin Xi felt that judging from Yun Zheng's current attitude towards him, it was natural to support him. The performance of the prince and the fourth prince also showed this, so the greater Yun Zheng's ability, the better his performance, and the more help he would receive.
The bigger he gets, so he laughs almost more freely than the Thirteenth Princess
Shen Ju was also laughing. The relationship between the Yun and Shen families has indeed been good over the years. The smarter the young master of the Yun family, the more beneficial it will be to the Shen family. Together, the two parties will be able to occupy a favorable position in the government and the opposition, so he also smiled,
leisurely and contented
Qin Xu has also been familiar with Yun Zheng since he was a child. In his opinion, Yun Zheng is a loyal person. When he was a child, whether it was Lin Xi or him, whenever Yun Zheng needed to help them with his fists, Yun Zheng would stand up for them.
Zheng has never given any discounts, let alone excuses, so he has always thought that Yun Zheng is a friend worth making. As for whether Yun Zheng's talent will steal his limelight, he really hasn't thought about it.
Pass
In fact, in the past two hundred years, the Yun family has only had a civil servant like Yun Lan's younger brother - Yun Zheng's uncle Yun Dai - and he was an accident because Yun Dai had an illness when he was a child and was unable to practice martial arts. At that time, Yun Zheng
My grandfather, Old Yun Guogong Yun Yu, with the firm attitude of "There will never be anyone in our Yun family who is useless to the country", for the first time, let Yun Dai practice writing since he was a child. Maybe God really cares about the Yun family, and Yun Dai is really smart.
Incomparably, his knowledge has advanced rapidly. At the age of seventeen, he insisted on giving up the opportunity of "famous recommendation" (Note: According to the tradition of the Wei Dynasty, court officials from second-rank or above aristocratic families can recommend one person to enter the officialdom with the same background as a Jinshi every three years).
In the imperial examination, he passed the second-level and fifth place in one fell swoop. After being born as a Jinshi, he had a smooth journey. Until today, he is the right minister of the household department of the second rank of the official residence.
Even Yun Dai accidentally became a civil servant because he was unable to practice martial arts. Yun Zheng, who is the legitimate son of the Yun family and has outstanding martial arts skills since childhood, obviously cannot become a civil servant no matter how talented he is in martial arts - if he becomes a civil servant
, how to inherit the title of "Hereditary First Class Duke of Wu Yiyun" from their old Yun family?
Qin Mulian was also laughing, but her smile was a little strange. She looked at the Thirteenth Princess from time to time, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
At this time, Yun Zheng spoke. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Fourth Prince, since Yun Zheng was lucky enough to win half the battle, why don't we stop here today?"
The fourth prince secretly resented it, but could not think about it. He nodded mechanically, and was about to agree when he heard a slightly older voice saying: "Master Yun, wait a minute."
Everyone turned their heads and saw an old man wearing a purple official uniform with a goldfish belt on his left waist and a crane jade on his right waist walking over from the nearby garden gate. He said with a smile on his face: "I, Zhang Yanyu,
I originally planned to show off my elegance today, but unexpectedly I heard a few wonderful couplets. I felt itchy for a moment and couldn't help but want to have a few couplets with Mr. Xiaoyun. Mr. Xiaoyun, won't you blame me for being a meddlesome old man?"
Although Yunzheng's inherited memory is a bit fuzzy in some aspects, he knows that the old man in front of him is Zhang Yanyu. He is the Crown Prince's Young Master, a bachelor of the Wenhua Palace, and the Minister of Rites. The men of the Wei Dynasty have a single name, and can only be chosen by aristocratic families.
She has a single name, and women cannot have a single name regardless of their family background. So it is obvious that Zhang Yanyu is a real scholar who came from a poor family and passed the formal scientific examination and became the best in officialdom. How about a couplet with such a person? Yun Zheng is really a little unsure.
, God knows how perverted the most powerful of these ancients who have read a few books for a lifetime are?
But he is an old man, and his seniority is higher than that of Yunzheng's father. He is a junior, how can he refuse? They quickly met the old man Lin Sheng, Lin Xi and the Thirteenth Princess with a few people around them. Naturally, they knew Zhang Yanyu.
Yes, he was the favored minister of Emperor Wanchang, and he was also a bachelor with the title of Prince's Young Master. When these three junior highnesses saw him, they could only greet him as a student.
After finally finishing the fuss, Zhang Yanyu smiled and said: "Master Xiaoyun..."
Yun Zheng said quickly: "Sir, you'd better call me boy Yun Zheng. I don't dare to take this responsibility."
Zhang Yanyu smiled and said: "Okay, you can talk about it anyway, I and your uncle are very harmonious... Oh, I won't talk about that today, let's talk about couplets, but I have agreed in advance that my old man is not testing you, nor will I
We will deliberately make some embarrassing couplets, let’s not ask about the difficulty, just talk about the artistic conception, what do you think?”
Yun Zheng was relieved. He didn't just take the test on me. God knows how deep these old guys' writing skills are, so he quickly said: "The elder's suggestion is very good, and the juniors should follow it."
"Okay!" Zhang Yanyu pointed to the surrounding flowers and trees with a smile and said: "There is a lingering fragrance in the room, and the Zheng Lanbao osmanthus tree is weeping."
As expected, he was not trying to embarrass us. Yun Zheng felt very relaxed. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "Nothing grows in nothing, Tang poetry, Jin characters and Chinese articles."
"Yeah, not bad." Zhang Yanyu nodded and said: "The spring is sunny in Huawu, and the rhyme of birds is playing the holeless flute."
When Yunzheng heard this, he immediately praised: "Good sentence! Good mood!"
Zhang Yanyu chuckled: "Stop flattering the old man and quickly think of the next couplet. If the meaning is weak, it will not work."
Yunzheng smiled and said: "At dusk in the tree garden, the sound of cicadas plays on the unstringed harp."
Zhang Yanyu didn't expect that he could answer the couplet so quickly, and the artistic conception was not inferior to his own. Although he had heard his answers to others before, and knew that this little guy was quite capable in the couplet, he was still a little surprised: "The little guy is really talented.
Agile, let the old man think about it... Well, Mount Taiyan is so beautiful, and the green peaks on the four walls overwhelm Donglu."
Geography? That's our strength. Yun Zheng smiled and said: "The Yellow River is rolling, and the nine-curved jade belt locks the Western Qin Dynasty."
"Well, that's right, the momentum is exactly the same." Zhang Yanyu nodded and said: "The stars in the small marsh are like an immortal scattering golden chess pieces."
Only then did Yun Zheng notice that the sky had darkened and it was already night. After thinking about it for a moment, he replied: "An ancient pine hangs the moon, just like an old dragon holds a luminous pearl."
Zhang Yanyu became more and more surprised and said with a smile: "I am from Jiangxia. When I went back to my hometown to visit relatives the year before last, I got a couplet: Sishuijiang is the first, Sishixia is the second. I live in Jiangxia. Who is the first and who is the second?
?”
Yun Zheng smiled and said: "I'm afraid this couplet is a bit troublesome."
Zhang Yanyu smiled but said nothing
Yun Zheng thought for a while, then suddenly slapped his forehead: "The Confucians of the three religions are in front, and the three talents are in the back. I am a Confucian, how dare I be in the front, how dare I be in the back?"
When Zhang Yanyu heard this, he admired in his heart. Just when he was about to praise him, he heard the voice of an elegant middle-aged man who had already spoken first: "Good words! Abbott, please don't be busy. I... I'll ask you two questions first!"
