52. Poetry and book geometry in the abdomen? (Part 1)
Fifty-two, how many poems and books are there in the belly? (Part 1)
Gushu City was first built in the Huangwu period of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. It was named after the Gushu River. It is adjacent to Baiqu Mountain to the east and the Yangtze River to the west. It is the gateway to Jiankang. With Gushu under control, Jiankang means that the door is wide open.
During the reign of Emperor Yuan of Jin Dynasty, Wang Dun, the general in Zhendong, rebelled in the name of "Qing Jun Side" and invaded Jiankang. After killing the dissidents, he returned to Wuchang. After Emperor Ming of Jin came to the throne, he was forced to order Wang Dun to join the court to assist the government. Wang Dun left Wuchang
He moved to the town of Gushu, took charge of Yangzhou as a pastoralist, and controlled Jiankang from afar. If Wang Dun had not been old, sick and unable to do anything, the Jin Dynasty would have ended.
Huan Wen admired Wang Dun, passed Wang Dun's tomb, and called him Ke'er. Ke'er is a person who is satisfied with his wishes. Huan Wen admired a rebellious minister so much, which shows his disobedience. During the Shengping period, he followed Wang Dun's example and led the northern expedition.
In the name of Gushu, he was moved from Jingzhou to Zhengu. His treasonous intentions were well known to everyone on the road. On the one hand, the Jin royal family and the Wang Xie family had to rely on Huan Wen to fight against Fu Qin and Murong Yan in the north. On the other hand, they were worried about his tampering.
, but there was no strong means to check and balance Huan Wen, so he could only watch Huan Wen become powerful——
Huan Wen is also similar to Wang Dun. Wang Dun married Princess Xiangcheng, the daughter of Emperor Wu of Jin Sima Yan, while Huan Wen's wife was Princess Nankang, the daughter of Emperor Ming of Jin.
At midnight on the morning of April 24, Chen Caozhi, Xie Xuan, and Wang Tanzhi walked around Hengshan Mountain with dozens of people. Not far away, in sight was the Zicheng to the north of Gushu City. Gushu Zicheng was the town that Huan Wen moved to three years ago.
It was built in the Gushu period and was mainly used for stationing troops. When the sergeants patrolling outside the city saw Xie Xuan, they all saluted respectfully. These sergeants did not pay much attention to the handsome Chen Cao, but they looked at the man riding the white horse in surprise.
Ran Sheng, a majestic man like Ran Sheng is extremely rare even among girls with tens of thousands of soldiers——
Xie Xuan smiled and said to Chen Caozhi: "Zizhong, Gushu is a city of men. It advocates martial arts, but it is not as good as Jiankang. No one here will throw fruits or flowers to you."
Chen Cao said: "Youdu made fun of me. In terms of hard work and hardship, I will not lose to anyone. Please wait and see."
The group of people walked around Zicheng and when they arrived at the north gate of Gushu, they saw the city gate wide open and more than a hundred horses galloping out. Huan Wen, the general of Zhenxi, led his civil and military officials to greet the emperor's envoy Wang Tanzhi. Huan Wen had received Xie Xuan's express report.
, knowing that the imperial court had issued an edict to appoint him as a minister, to supervise all domestic and foreign military affairs, and to record the minister's affairs, he used the yellow ax to go out of the city to welcome him.
Chen Caozhi finally met Huan Wen, a powerful figure in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Liu Kun's prostitute said that compared to Liu Kun, Huan Wen had "very similar faces, but hate that they are thin; very similar eyes, hate that they are small; very similar beards, hate that they are red; very similar shapes, hate that they are short;"
The sound is very similar, and I hate females." It is actually a bit of a slander. Huan Wen is more than seven feet tall, bold and elegant, with purple eyes and a hedgehog beard. He has a seven-star face and a very majestic appearance. The so-called seven-star face means that Huan Wen has seven black stars on his face.
Moles are arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper. The fortune teller thinks this is a very noble appearance. Pei Guozhen, who is famous for his knowledge of people, called it: "Warm eyes like purple stone ridges, which must be made of wretched hair. Sun Zhongmou, the king of Jin Xuan, Liuya
Ye." He compared Huan Wen to Sun Quan and Sima Yi and spoke highly of him.
When Huan Wen was fifteen years old, his father Huan Yi was killed by Su Jun's general Han Huang during the Su Jun Rebellion. Han Huang had him executed. However, Jiang Bo, the magistrate of Jing County, had participated in the plot, but nothing happened.
He swore to avenge his father. Three years later, Jiang Bo passed away. Huan Wen carried a sharp dagger in his arms. In the name of condolences, he rushed into the mourning hall and killed Jiang Bo's son, Jiang Biao, and six other people, causing a commotion——
Huan Wen is fifty-one years old this year. He has no fat on his body, is as strong as a young man, has purple eyes like lightning, and is not angry and intimidating. Anyone who sees such a person for the first time will be wary and intimidated, and Chen Caozhi is no exception.
When Huan Wen saw Chen Caozhi, he looked him up and down without saying a word. Most people would already feel uneasy after being looked at by him like this, sweating on their foreheads. Chen Caozhi calmly saluted and said: "Qian Tang, Chen Caozhi pays homage to Duke Huan."
.”
Huan Wen suddenly laughed and said, "I heard the name of Jiangzuo Wei Jie and thought that Chen Caozhi was as weak as Wei Shubao. Unexpectedly, Chen Caozhi was able to ride a horse. He was handsome and vigorous, not as good as Wei Shubao." So he came to Wang Tanzhi.
, Chen Caozhi introduced the military elites, including Zhou Chu, Yuan Qiao, Yuan Hong, Luo Han, and Hao Long, as well as Huan Wen's eldest son Huan Xi and his third son Huan Xin.
Huan Wen saw that Ran Sheng, who was following Chen Caozhi, was very majestic, so he asked who he was. Chen Caozhi said, "I am the Chen family's Buqu. My surname is Ran Sheng. I am sixteen years old this year."
Huan Wen suddenly said: "Xi Guijin mentioned to me that this Ran Sheng is a fierce general." He ordered the marching Sima to appoint Ran Sheng as the commander of the corps. In the Eastern Jin Dynasty's military system, there were five people per corps, and the corps commander was the leader of the five soldiers.
It is the lowest military rank.
Ran Sheng, however, refused to become the team leader because he did not want to leave Cao Zhixiaolangjun.
Huan Wen laughed loudly and said, "This is a piece of rough jade, it still needs to be polished."
The group entered the city and arrived at the General's Mansion. Wang Tanzhi announced the decree and gave Huan Wen a fake yellow ax on behalf of the emperor. Huan Wen thanked him and then held a banquet in honor of Wang Tanzhi and Chen Caozhi.
After drinking for three rounds, Hao Long stood up and said to Chen Cao: "Chen Yu, you are now a member of the Zhengxi Military Mansion. Since you are Huan Da Sima's staff, you must know the military government's practices——"
Chen Caozhi frowned slightly, but Xie Xuan didn't tell him any customs. He immediately handed over his hands and said, "Cao Zhi is new here, so I'd like to ask Hao Canjun for more advice."
Hao Long said: "When you enter the military mansion, you must be pragmatic and knowledgeable, unlike those who talk about nothing but mysteries. The staff who first enter the Xifu have to answer three questions. These three questions are not related to
Confucianism and metaphysics have nothing to do with Buddhism and Taoism, they only examine knowledge and current affairs——"
Xie Xuan was secretly angry. The madman Hao Long wanted to give Zi Zhong a show of strength. This was never the custom when he entered the Western Mansion. There was no such thing when he came to Gushu last year. It was obvious that he bullied Zi Zhong but it was not obvious that he was from a good family. Zi Zhong
He was proficient in Confucianism and Mysticism, but he was afraid that he would not be able to respond to such a question about current affairs in a hurry. He immediately looked at Huan Wen, hoping that Huan Da Sima would stop Hao Long——
Huan Wen raised his glass and smiled, thinking: "Guest Xi highly praised this Chen Cao, calling him the Zhang Liang of Han Emperor Gaozu and the Xun Yu of Wei Emperor Wu. I really don't believe it, so I will let Hao Saozhi take the exam today to see what happens."
Whether he has real talent or knowledge, Chen Caozhi is not a member of a well-known family, and he cannot enter our military government just by boasting and talking." Seeing Xie Xuan look at him, he nodded.
Xie Xuan knew that Huan Wen also wanted to take the exam for Chen Caozhi, so he immediately sat quietly and listened, a little worried about Chen Caozhi. If he was frustrated as soon as he entered the military mansion, he would be looked down upon by Huan Wen, and Chen Caozhi's future in the Xifu would be worrying.
Chen Caozhi saw the expressions on everyone's faces and knew that it was Hao Long's custom to answer questions when entering the Western Mansion. However, since Hao Long said so and Huan Wen acquiesced, he had no choice but to accept the challenge. A madman like Hao Long must
He wanted to find a way to thwart it, otherwise he would have difficulties in the future in Xifu. He immediately said without hesitation: "I heard that on July 7th of last year, Hao Canjun confessed his belly to the scorching sun and said that he was exposing the book in his belly. Is this possible?
"
It was a custom in the Jin Dynasty that on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, every household would take clothes, silk brocades and other fabrics outside to dry to dry. Hao Long's family was poor and had no clothes to dry, so he kept his belly open during the day. When people asked him why, he replied: "I dry books."
.”
Chen Caozhi knew that Hao Long's words and deeds were imitating Ruan Xian. Ruan Xian was the nephew of Ruan Ji, the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest. He was relatively poor in the family and lived in the south of Dao. All the Ruans in the north of Dao were rich. On July 7th, all Ruan in the north of Dao were showing off their clothes.
Luo Jinqi and Ruan Xian hung calf-nosed trousers on bamboo poles in the atrium. People asked about them strangely, and they replied: "It's not like they are exempt from vulgarity, so talk about it."
In Chen Caozhi's view, Ruan Xian is a real celebrity who is broad-minded, free-spirited and humorous, while Hao Long is obviously artificial and a means to gain fame and reputation.
Hao Long was very proud of his elegant words and deeds when he posted his books. He said: "There is no clothes to show off, so we can just talk about it."
Chen Caozhi smiled slightly, looked at Hao Long's middle-aged belly, and said: "Hao Canjun is really pitiable. Not only does he have no clothes to hang out in, he also has little reading. How many volumes of books can he hold in his belly?"
Everyone was stunned, and someone laughed randomly. Xie Xuan also laughed, thinking: "Wonderful, this madman should be humiliated like this."
Huan Wen thought to himself: "In the past, Xi guests praised Chen Caozhi, but there were many who disagreed. It is not easy to gain a foothold in Guzhu. It seems that Chen Caozhi wants to use Hao George to establish his power. Although Hao George is arrogant, he is
You are not an unlearned person, very good, this question is wonderful."
Hao Long's face turned purple and he said angrily: "A few volumes of books are enough to fill a belly, and ten thousand volumes of books are also a bellyful. How did you know that I study little!"
Chen Caozhi was very sure of this. Hao Long definitely didn't read as many books as him. Having lived in two lifetimes, he still had some confidence. He said with a smile: "In this case, I would like to learn from him."
Hao Long said angrily: "Okay, I will ask you three questions first, and then you will ask me three questions to see who is less educated!"
Chen Caozhi said politely: "Please ask Hao Canjun to write the question."
Hao Long knew that Chen Caozhi and Zhu Yingtai were coming to Gushu, so he had already thought about three problems. He originally wanted to test Chen Caozhi and Zhu Yingtai, but now only Chen Cao came, and he did so in front of everyone.
It was really annoying to make fun of him, so he immediately said loudly: "In the past, Lord Mengchang was good at raising scholars, and he had three thousand followers. Now, Duke Huanjun treats virtuous people, and all the talents in the world have returned. Xifu is full of talents. Please Chen Yu, please try to discuss Duke Huanjun and Lord Mengchang."
of superiority or inferiority."
Hao Long's question is more tricky and insidious. If Chen Caozhi praised Huan Wen and demoted Meng Chang, he would be a chubby person. If word spread, he would be despised by those so-called scholars. Naturally, it would not be possible to demote Huan Wen. With these restrictions, Chen Caozhi would be very
It is difficult to discuss, and if you try to discuss it reluctantly, it will be a cliché. In this way, Chen Caozhi's first question will be difficult to satisfy Huan Wen and everyone.
Chen Caozhi shook his head and said: "How can Lord Mengchang and Duke Huan be compared?"
Hao Long said: "Mengchang Jun is the leader of the four princes of the Warring States Period and the Prime Minister of Qi. What needs to be discussed is the love of talents and the importance of talents. How can we not compare them with each other?"
Chen Cao said: "Did Hao Shenjun know that roosters crow and dogs robber?"
Hao Long sneered and said: "Don't you know that Lord Mengchang escaped from Qin and returned to Qi by relying on the crowing of chickens and dog thieves? This is what he uses to raise scholars."
