Liu Zhixing pushed open the door and approached, and Zhang Bai put down the book. The two looked at each other speechlessly, in fact, there was nothing to say. Liu Zhixing casually picked up a book and found that there was a script pressed underneath. I flipped through a few pages casually in my hand, and there were mostly some strange pictures on them, and a few of them featured naked women.

couldn't help but glance back at Zhang Bai, with banter in his eyes. Zhang Bai didn't take it and said: "It's all men, just some things to ease the mind." ”

Closed the book and said, "Zhang Gongzi doesn't feel sorry for buying these things with the silver money given by Yulian. ”

snatched the script, Liu Zhixing looked at the number of dramas on the desk. Flip through the book at will, it is not an allusion, just a bizarre story made up by literati. One describes the love between men and women, and the other is mostly ghosts and spirits. Liu Zhixing said: "Looking at these useless things is much better than going to the Qinglou." I've also wandered in Qinglou for a while, and I'm used to seeing young handsome people who think they're talented. said that it was talking about Fengyue, but there were really a few people who just wrote poems. ”

Zhang Bai put away the script with some embarrassment and said: "Their talents are not necessarily worse than those of high-ranking officials, but their status is different, and their talents are difficult to show." ”

Some people may say that today's prime minister Wang Anai is a cloth cloth, not rising step by step, and now one person is above ten thousand people. has achieved the supremacy of the literati, and the folk have a good story about the prime minister of cloth. But who would mention his mentor Zhou Wen, if there was no Zhou Wen to help him, I am afraid that he would not know how many people would be excluded from Huang Menlang at the beginning, and even die. Without Mr.'s advice and kind words, how could the emperor who was not seen see the talent of a cloth cloth, and sometimes the talent was not useful.

The children of the gentlemen who don't learn and don't know how to do it are worse than others now, Liu Zhixing doesn't think that no one can help him get ahead in the officialdom. If he wasn't the son of Lu Guogong, I'm afraid he wouldn't have had the opportunity to look at the emperor in his life. The battle in the army may be able to get ahead, but no matter how great the military achievements are, who will see it.

Liu Zhixing was furious and ran to the nearby kamikaze camp to borrow a hood, it was because Lin Zhong wanted a good brother of life and death. But with a place to live and no food, one person rushed to Fenyang Town to ask for food. It's just because his father is the secretary of the military department, although he is far away at the border, he is still restrained. After eating for a short time, I found that there were empty people who did not know the method of military training. In the entire thirteenth battalion, only Liang Bo knew a little, and the rest were confused. From the beginning, he only knew that simple blind training had no effect, but several soldiers who were weak were not lightly injured, so Liu Zhixing went to the nearby Changfeng Camp to borrow people. Xue Liren was able to temporarily borrow fifty spear and stick sect leaders, and he didn't think that Liu Zhixing would have much ability, and those sect leaders were only willing to help because Liu Zhixing was the only disciple recognized by the previous coach Lin Xie.

After talking about a set of theories, Zhang Bai was full of energy, and Liu Zhixing said: "How are the preparations for the palace exam next year?" ”

In fact, the beloved woman Zhang Bai didn't hate this noble son so much, although he had Liu Zhixing's notoriety since he came to Taiping City. In cognition, Liu Zhixing has actually done a good job, and he is not afraid of being strong in the army and dares to be the first. It is only said that not everyone dares to rush into battle, and he Zhang Bai may go to the rescue in other ways, and he may not have the courage of Liu Zhixing to dare to charge into battle.

said: "It's not bad, there is a gentleman by the side to guide and understand, and the harvest is not small." In the next year's palace examination, I have the confidence to compete for the first place, but unfortunately Liu Gongzi does not need a scientific examination, I really want to see how the talented man who Mr. has never forgotten learns. ”

After reading a few ghosts and strange aspirations, he said: "Forget it, I never thought of participating in the imperial examination." Even if you don't join the army, you won't participate in the scientific examination, and as the son of the national prince, the scientific examination is not to cut off the promotion of others. Some people will say that they don't need to think about anything else if they study hard, and if they are the same family, they may not be worse than me. If you fall off the list, there will be people who will ridicule you, which is not worth it. ”

For the first time, he had a common language with Liu Zhixing and said: "Indeed, the atmosphere in the Daliang literary world is disgusting. Prime Minister Wang An opened the way for poor students, and everyone had a way to be promoted. Unintentionally triggered the phenomenon of literati discriminating against Dagui, frustrated scholars do not think about their own problems, and in the final analysis, they play with power with others. ”

Putting down the book, he said: "When I was studying, I didn't like those moral articles, but my father and Mr. Father were saying that those were the foundation of learning. I, Liu Zhixing, thought that I couldn't do the rules and regulations in the book, and I never thought about what to do and be a moral saint. It is only in the army that I have realized in these years that many of the truths in the book are the same. But now I still like these nihilistic stories, and the spirits in the book are more like people, and that is the longing for the happiness and hatred of life. ”

Listening to what Liu Zhixing said seriously, he didn't bother just as a listener. After a long time, Liu Zhixing said: "I don't know if it is a blessing or a disaster for you to become an official at this time." ”

Zhang Bai asked strangely, "What do you mean, Gongzi Liu?" ”

Liu Zhixing turned around and said: "I believe that Zhang Gongzi can understand my words and worship Mr., Zhou Jin must have talked to you, otherwise you would not decisively refuse Yang Chen's proposal." As I said before, there is Bole first, and then there is Maxima. If there are two maximas at the same time, Bole may use them at the same time. On the contrary, when a Maxima meets two Bole, he has to think about choosing the most suitable Bole. This may be the source of your self-confidence, I believe that soon the prince's people will look for you, maybe they have already found it. It's not that you, Zhang Baicai, are learning, it's just because you are Mr. Zhou's closed disciple. As long as there is this hypocrisy, he will be supported by many protégés who are also studying in Mr. Zhang, which is clear to Zhang Gongzi. ”

Zhang Bai, who looked dazed for a short time, suddenly thought clearly what Liu Zhixing would say, if Mr. is healthy, the name is not important, and it is actually useless if he can't be gracious. As long as the gentleman's closed-door disciple wins the top spot, many officials who are senior brothers will have to take a serious look at the junior brother. In fact, a school of thought is not a party, why can Zhou Yingxiang, the secretary of the ministry, sit firmly in the position of Shangshu.

said: "As Mr.'s most proud disciple, his talent must not be bad." Although the ancients had no second words and no first, I don't know if Liu Gongzi can fight with Zai, so as to prove that I, Zhang Bai, am the real closed-door student of Mr. ”

Liu Zhixing waved his hand and said, "Forget it, following Mr. is just reading, and besides, I have never been in the habit of composing poetry." As for the most proud student of the gentleman, it is just what others say, but it can please the old man, if you can't compare with you in poetry. ”

Only from the beginning of his studies, the master of Kunling Mountain has always been taught by Liu Zhixing, what can be written at the age of three, and can be written at the age of five. In fact, many people know that they are laughing at Liu Zhixing, who is unlearned and unskilled, but it has become true when it is passed on. In fact, Liu Zhixing learned more about being a human being from the elderly, and reading is not useless.

Zhang Bai looked a little disappointed, both Mr. and she wanted to prove that they were no worse than Liu Zhixing. Liu Zhixing said: "I am a martial artist, and there have been several generals and poets since ancient times, and I Liu Zhixing has not fallen to that point." If you want to fight poetry to find Zhang Wenzheng, I believe you two will be able to talk about it. ”

Speaking of which little boy Zhang Bai is actually a little lonely, when Shuangshang took him into the villa, after reading Liu Zhixing's letter of recommendation, he had the heart to include himself in the door. It's just that I don't know which old man is another Wenzong of Daliang, and now I don't regret it, but I just misunderstood Mr. Shuang's kindness. Which little boy is really talented and intelligent, and he is the leader in several scientific examinations. Children in Taiping City are the first, and Xiucai is an article that makes everyone scramble to watch.

If he sees the palace examination in the coming year, he will be a respectable opponent, and he has read several poems written by Zhang Wenzheng, and the generalization is not too rigorous, and his understanding of things is also unique. In a few years, I, Zhang Bai, will only sigh to myself in the literary world, but he may not be as good as me as an official in the court. ”

Liu Zhixing smiled indifferently and said: "You are not comparable to him, he is a pure person." Thinking too much is different from us, but less sincerity, Wen Zheng is not very old, he is rigorous, and everything is right or wrong, and he follows his heart. ”

I didn't expect Liu Zhixing to have such a high opinion of the little boy, and was about to speak, Liu Zhixing took a few steps and lifted Zhang Bai's long sword that had not been unsheathed for a long time. Pulling out the sheath and saying, "I don't know if there has been progress in swordsmanship in the past year or so, so why don't you try it." ”

Without waiting for Zhang Bai to return, Liu Zhixing had already walked out of the door with the long sword and directly pulled out the long sword. The sword body that has not been unsheathed for a long time is still bright, and Liu Zhixing shouted: Good sword. threw the long sword to Zhang Bai, who went out later, and Zhang Bai, who took the sword, could no longer refuse Liu Zhixing's challenge. There are rules from the beginning of martial arts, and when others ask for a sword to catch a sword, it is to receive a sword.

said: "It is difficult to find another sword in the house. ”

Liu Zhixing smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll just use the scabbard." I haven't practiced swords for a long time, and whether there is a sword or not is the second dare to take the sword is the foundation of a swordsman. ”

While speaking, Liu Zhixing was already standing under the steps, there was no courtyard, just a corridor. Standing in the center of the scabbard, he pointed at Zhang Bai and said, "Take out the sword, if you lose, you have to quit." Yulian has already promised to marry me, don't bother in the future. ”

In the face of Liu Zhixing's provocation, knowing that he was invincible to Liu Zhixing, he still took out his sword, and the long sword came out, and Liu Zhixing did not use his sword, but just dodged sideways. Zhang Bai, who had slashed his sword several times in a row, became more and more angry, and Liu Zhixing naturally dodged once and never slashed his sword. Zhang Bai's sword became more and more ruthless, and the sword went sideways. Liu Zhixing can always dodge at any time with the help of the narrow corridor, and there are several new sword marks on the shiny pillars.

Liu Zhixing said: "The pillar provokes you, and you need to spend money to make up for a little paint." ”

After listening to Liu Zhixing's words, Zhang Bai obviously made his sword much lighter, just because Liu Zhixing didn't use his sword, and the scoundrel relied on the pillar to dodge. Zhang Bai said: "Liu Zhixing, you are not asking about the sword, you are playing a scoundrel." ”

Liu Zhixing's wrist flicked, and sure enough, the sword came out, and the scabbard was like a long sword approaching the door of life. Zhang Bai, who was beaten, was caught off guard, and his previous momentum was swept away. Liu Zhixing took advantage of the situation to take off a kick in the air, and did not miss the empty mention in Zhang Bai's chest. Zhang Bai, who took a few steps back, caught up with a long sword in his hand, and the two went back and forth in the corridor. Liu Zhixing gained the upper hand and said: "Zhang Gongzi's sword is unstable, and it is far worse than back then. You said that a scholar practices what kind of sword, and he still wants to be an official, and he can fight against those old things, and there are no bones left after you eat. ”

"Didn't I say just now that the same situation as the poor students will definitely be better than the children of the official eunuchs. I don't think so, they may not do the same thing, you are probably worse than any of you. What champions, in my opinion, are all nerds who die reading. Scholars are proud of being champions, do you know that poor students will only be more ruthless when they become high-ranking officials and deal with the people. Because they knew the weakness of the people, they never dared to challenge the power of the wealthy. What qualifications does such a person have to talk about the world, and what qualifications do you have to force Yulian to marry you with a marriage contract, don't you feel ashamed?"

The angry Zhang Bai said: "Don't say it. ”

Liu Zhixing took out his sword three times in a row, knocked Zhang Bai to the ground with one blow and said: "If I were you, if I wanted to fight poetry, I would definitely use some means to force me to comply." I know that you can't take the sword better than me, but I don't know if you're stupid or courageous. What you meet today is me, if someone else will definitely beat you and never turn over. The courage not to use one's own strengths against the enemy, but to use the strengths of others to fight the enemy, is admirable, but failure is failure, and there is nothing to be proud of. Since you have decided to become an official in the court, you must first have a clear position, and you will be the first to swallow if you are so swaying from side to side. ”

Zhang Bai, who was holding the long sword tightly, said, "Why are you helping me. ”

Liu Zhixing said: "Since ancient times, there has been no strategy for both, and the so-called civil and military perfection is just praise. Whoever can do it without mistakes, I'm afraid the saints can't either. I, Liu Zhixing, naturally gave up a lot when I chose to join the army, and you Zhang Bai can't either, do you see that your swordsmanship is still half as good as it was back then? ”

"Why did you help me?"

Liu Zhixing turned around and said, "I'm about to leave Taiping, and Yulian has negotiated with the prince during this time." I don't want Yulian to become a weight for the King of Qi and the crown prince to fight, in this city, I'm afraid that the only one who cares about Yulian the most is you. ”

"Are you here, Yulian let it go to me?"

"The beauty of thought."

Zhang Bai got up and said solemnly: "I will give you what you said at the beginning, who Yulian likes to see her ability, I will not let it, it's just a marriage contract." ”

Liu Zhixing looked back and smiled and said, "Do you think it's possible?" ”

Zhang Bai, who had a rare smile, said: "You are not in Taiping, there is nothing impossible." ”

Liu Zhixing didn't say anything but said: "I know that my mother and sister-in-law He have come to you and said a lot of things that make you unpleasant. I'm sorry for my sister-in-law. ”

Zhang Bai said: "Do you think I will listen? You Liu Zhixing can't help but underestimate me Zhang Bai too much. But I will remember what you said today, and I hope you will be disappointed. ”

Liu Zhixing smiled and turned to leave, Mr. is still waiting for his own meal! I don't know if there will be any opportunities to accompany the old man and listen to the teachings in the future.
