Zhong Xuan is not a time-traveler, and he certainly does not know the allusions of Kant and Fichte.

But this did not prevent Zhong Xuan from understanding what Li Su meant.

Who let the pre-Qin princes leave countless precedents in terms of "Tuogu carrying private goods".

Even Confucius said that he "said but did not do", and those truths were not invented by Confucius himself, but by three generations of kings and sages, and he was only responsible for discovering them.

The act of fabricating Lu Xun's quotations in the exam essay is not only done by middle school students in later generations, but also by Su Dongpo.

It's just that Su Dongpo made up not Lu Xun, but Yao Shun, and the chief examiner Ouyang Xiu was stunned: Yao Shun still said this? This examinee has a wild way of reading, even I haven't read it.

When asked afterwards, Su Shi came back directly: I haven't read it either, take it for granted!

With Yao Shun's character, they should be like that!

Anyway, many of Yao Shun's deeds were compiled by Confucius for them.

The monk can't touch me?

Confucius can't make it up?

Therefore, after being inspired by Li Su's thinking, Zhong Xuan, the old boy, also began to use his crooked brains.

Since the original author Li Su has allowed the addition of stories, the addition of signed authors and celebrities.

Then he Zhong Xuan can also get some filial piety allusions that he heard from his teachers when he was studying in Taixue, and compile them, and sign the names of those teachers and Confucians when the time comes......

Listening to what Li Su meant, it seems that he has the ability to copy and spread this book quickly and in large quantities, which is very promising (Zhong Miao still doesn't understand the concept of "printing", so Li Su can only tell him that he has the ability to spread this book in large quantities after it comes out)

"In this case, if there is any need to copy in the future, even if you come to me, you will be kind!"

The two sides talked well, Zhong Xuan's wife also boiled the deer breast brought by Li Su, drank the wine together, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and then said goodbye.

……

In the next few days, Li Su wrote a book every day and asked Zhong Xuan to help copy it.

While copying, Zhong Xuan also thought about some typical deeds of filial piety that happened in recent years and circulated in a small range of people, and added them to the content of the book, which also made the story more substantial.

Li Su will also check these stories made up by Zhong Xuan, and initially retreated to let him write in more detail and flesh and blood.

Zhong Miao was very unaccustomed to it at first, but Li Su said that he should not worry about the difficulty of transmission, and he could add money, so Zhong Miao admitted it.

He can't admit it if he wants to, his wife will pull his ears.

And once he let go of writing at the expense of pen and ink, Zhong Xuan quickly discovered the benefits of this kind of narrative.

The style of the Qin and Han dynasties is very concise, just because the bamboo slip lettering is too annoying, everyone wants to cherish the words like gold, and they are used to it. From ancient texts to the prose of the Six Dynasties, and then to the prose of the Tang and Song dynasties, it was originally a process of becoming more and more comfortable to write and print, resulting in a more and more full style.

This is a process in which scientific and technological progress has led to the gradual transformation of articles into richer and more vivid ones.

You don't see that the input method technology in later generations is becoming more and more advanced, and later it can be entered by voice, and a group of animal writers are becoming more and more frustrated when the number of words in the water.

Li Su does not need to intervene in specific creations, as long as he is keenly aware of the influence of science and technology on stylistic trends, and pushes in the initial general direction, he can rely on the inertia of the wheel of history itself to turn faster and faster.

It is said that later in the "Book of Ji Han", Li Su's weak guidance at the beginning was characterized as "the originator of the style of Ji Han's hundreds of years of writing".

That's all for later.

After almost making preparations, Li Su personally delivered the letter of introduction that Cao Cao had given him to Liu Yan's mansion in Taichangqing.

A copy of the last volume of "Filial Piety Records" (that is, the volume containing Liu Bei's deeds) hand-copied by Zhong Xuan is also attached

He put his posture very low, and even stuffed money and benefits to the steward of Liu Yan's mansion who was in charge of communicating visitors. Please ask them to help Li Sumei say a few words within the scope of their ability.

He waited at the gate of Taichang Mansion for about a quarter of an hour, and the steward of Tongchuan came out to report that Liu Yan had promised to meet him in three days. He also said that he would read the book he handed him in before the meeting.

After returning home, Li Su continued his great business of papermaking, engraving, and writing, and waited for the three-day period to expire before visiting the door.

……

In the evening of the same day, Liu Yan returned home by car after finishing the wine meeting with several good colleagues and discussing the government and politics.

Sitting in the warm pavilion at home, he has his own beautiful maidservants to serve him to wash his feet.

Liu Yan was lying on the soft couch, a maid behind him rubbed his waist, and a maid knocked his back and pinched his shoulders, he slowed down for a while, squinted his eyes and ordered: "Present the prayer posts and thorns received today." ”

The maidservant immediately presented it, and he flipped through them one by one.

When he asked the housekeeper to make an appointment during the day, Liu Yan himself actually didn't have time to take a closer look. So wait until it's the dead of night, pick and choose the key points to read again.

The housekeeper accepted Li Su's money, and at this time put Cao Cao's letter of introduction and the book written by Li Su on the top.

This small gesture is crucial, and it is worth at least five baht consistently.

Because Liu Yan is old and weak, according to his habits, if he reads two greetings in a row that are not nutritious, he will have the illusion that nothing major has happened today, and the rest will probably not be read.

"Huh? Cao Cao? The bastard boy of the big farmer's family rarely recommends people to come to me. Liu Yan glanced at it, and first left a first impression in his heart.

Cao Cao was always impolite, and he didn't like to associate with officials in charge of etiquette and retreat.

Da Si Nong and Tai Changqing are also the most coppery and profitable, and one of the most vain and noble positions, so when the Cao family finds him, Liu Yan will inevitably be curious.

He endured his annoyance and continued to read, but soon his expression became bright.

"And this?" He threw Cao Cao's letter of introduction aside, and looked through the book written by Li Su, and rolled it directly to the last paragraph to see Liu Bei's deeds.

"Good word! Zhongzheng is square, but it is similar to the body of the monument at the entrance of Taixue, and it seems that he is also a person who is rigorous in learning. If it is really ten households, there will be faithful, reckless and poor, and there are also people who study hard. ”

When Liu Yan saw Li Su's book, he just saw it, and his first reaction was to sigh for a while, the words were very beautiful, and he left a good impression first. Then, he remembered that he was reminded by Cao Cao that he should focus on reading the story.

So I read on,

"The official of Zhongshan County in Jizhou happens to be the border county between Jizhou and Youzhou, but his hometown is in Zhuo County, which is the other side of the state border......"

"He had already made a meritorious contribution to the pursuit of the thief in Zhongshan, but because the thief broke through and escaped the state border, the officials of Jizhou watched that they could not pursue because of the law of the imperial court, so they could only sit on the thief and harm his hometown...... Finally, after reporting the thief to the imperial court, he decisively abandoned the official and returned to his hometown and recruited relatives from the township to save the trouble. Wonderful! ”

The more Liu Yan reads, the more excited he becomes, this material is so good! It is definitely worth being a hot topic of discussion in the imperial court in the near future! As a typical argument against the current scale of decentralization of assassination!

He has been brewing to advise His Majesty to "abolish Shi Limu" for a month or two, which is simply dozing off and sending pillows!

"Damn it! It may be a pinch. A delicate woman's voice begging for mercy next to him woke him up from surprise.

"It's none of your business, step aside." Liu Yan waved his hand vigorously.

It turned out that he had just read the wonderful place, and he inevitably wanted to sigh and admire. When the maid saw him shrugging his shoulders impatiently and waving his hand, she thought that he had pressed it hard.

The maidservant hurriedly retreated, and as soon as he beckoned, the housekeeper came closer, and Liu Yan instructed: "You go to inform me tomorrow, and you will say that you are willing to meet this Li Su on the same day." ”

"Whoa." The steward hurriedly agreed, and he had to step down.

Liu Yan quickly changed his mind again: "Come back!" Forget it, let's mention the day after tomorrow - tomorrow, you invite Dong Shizhong to the house first, and I have something important to talk to Dong Shizhong secretly. ”

"Well," said the steward, who had made a few more trips back and forth, and then stepped back again.
