XXV. You are very much like Mende

After making a sigh, Cai Yong stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the Luoyang Palace.

"Eunuchs are rampant, and the Son of Heaven ignores government affairs and only wants to enjoy himself, so no matter how good the scriptures are, what's the use?"

However, Guo Peng can't agree with such an idea.

"But if you don't learn and work hard, you really can't do anything."

Guo Peng looked at Cai Yong, and put out the words he had thought of: "It's useless to just say it, you have to do it, students study the Five Classics all over the world, just to get the qualifications to 'do', the situation is erosive, the people are in distress, someone has to make changes, you can't just waste and rot, otherwise, the Han world will be in danger." ”

Cai Yong looked at Guo Peng for a while, and then sighed.

"You are very similar to Mengde."

“…………”

Guo Peng was stunned when he heard this.

I'm a lot like Cao Cao?

What do you mean?

A hot-blooded young man stunned?

"When Meng De met the old man, the old man asked him about his ambition, and he said that he wanted to make contributions to the Han Dynasty, calm all the wars, and restore peace to the world, so that the people of Li can live and work in peace and contentment, you and his goals are similar, but you want to do more, it will be more difficult."

As soon as Cai Yong said this, Guo Peng understood what he meant.

Then, Cai Yong smiled again.

"This is not something that can be done by studying the Pentateuch, learning the Pentateuch is just the beginning, and in addition, there are more and more things that need to be done, the old man has been an official for many years, and he still can't find a clue, can you find it? Is there really a way to save the country in the scriptures? ”

"The scriptures are dead, but the people are alive, and the use of them is wonderful, with one mind, not how the scriptures are, but how the people are."

Guo Peng remembered Yue Fei's famous words about using soldiers and said it.

"How good it is...... Single-minded? ”

Cai Yong was stunned for a while, leaned less, and suddenly laughed.

"You and Mengde, you ...... It's really like that. ”

Cai Yong laughed for a while, then reached out and opened a wooden box on the piano table, then took out a roll of bamboo slips and put it in front of Guo Peng.

"Your poem, the old man accepted it, but what is the matter with these words of yours? It's not a Lizi, it's more strict than the Li, the strokes are more square, and the broken pen is more obvious, which you wrote yourself? ”

"Yes, students have been practicing writing since they were taught by their parents, writing and writing, and they don't remember when they started, and they like to write the characters more strictly and squarely, and the students think it is more comfortable to write in this way."

Cai Yong took a closer look again.

"More comfortable? That's all? The little pen movement you have at this broken pen doesn't seem to have been created for comfort. ”

"But it's really comfortable to write."

Guo Peng didn't know how to tell Cai Yong about this.

I can only say that this is an idea that appeared by accident after practicing too many words, and then after putting it into practice, I found that the font was beautiful and neat, so I wanted to show it to Cai Yong, and there was no other meaning.

"Indeed, you have changed the way you move the pen, and the glyphs have become more strict and square, and it looks like there is a majestic righteousness and extraordinary momentum, you can write some more, and the old man will come to see."

Cai Yong seemed to be very interested in regular script, and asked Guo Peng to write it on the spot, and when he came to see it, he probably didn't believe in it, and wanted to see it for believe.

So Guo Peng picked up the pen and ink and bamboo slips beside Cai Yong, straightened his posture, and wrote the fifteenth military campaign again in front of Cai Yong.

"Your method of breaking the pen is really different from the official word, it seems, it is really a bit extraordinary, you write again, talk to the old man, and wait for the old man to refer to it carefully."

Guo Peng knew that Cai Yong was obsessed with regular scripts, and he was really an old literary youth with a strong literary atmosphere, and his interest in art was much higher than his interest in business......

Throughout the afternoon, Guo Peng wrote italics on Cai's mansion and wrote it to Cai Yong.

And tell Cai Yong about his broken pen and pen movement, Cai Yong looked at it more and more interestingly, and bluntly said that Guo Peng's new calligraphy has become a system of its own, with a certain pattern and rules.

Seeing that Cai Yong's interest in italics gradually rose, Guo Peng took the opportunity to make his request to Cai Yong.

"Taixue lectures are small, the time is short, most of the time can be free to read, free to use, students hope to follow Cai Yilang to learn the scriptures in their free time, I don't know what Cai Yilang thinks?"

Cai Yong's hand holding the pen paused, leaned less, and put down the pen.

"Originally, the old man was reluctant to accept apprentices, whether it was you or others, the old man had no such plans at the beginning."

"And now?"

Guo Peng hurriedly asked, because he caught the wavering meaning in Cai Yong's words.

Cai Yong took a deep breath.

"The old man is now the person in charge of the Dongguan Library Pavilion, and he is ordered by the emperor to be responsible for proofreading books in the Dongguan, engraving the stone scriptures to correct the classics of the world, and the fourteen scripture schools are all involved, if you have time, you can come to Dongguan to find the old man and help the old man proofread the books together."

Guo Peng was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down to apprentice, but was supported by Cai Yong.

"Don't worry, Guo Peng, if you want to apprentice, it's not so easy, the old man just promised you to come and proofread the books with the old man, but he didn't promise you to apprentice."

“…………”

Guo Peng was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood what Cai Yong meant.

"Students understand, students are willing to follow Cai Yilang to proofread books, and when proofreading books, if students don't understand something, they also hope that Cai Yilang can answer for students."

"Yes."

Cai Yong smiled and agreed.

Guo Peng initially achieved his goal, and wrote a regular script with Cai Yong, and wrote that he left Cai's mansion at sunset.

Cai Yong saw that it was late, so he didn't leave him to eat, and sent someone to send him away quickly.

When Guo Peng returned to Taixue's residence, the sun had already set, and he almost missed the curfew, and when he returned to his residence, Guo Peng found Zang Hong waiting for him to come back for dinner in his house.

"What? Cai Yilang allowed you to go to Dongguan to proofread books with him? ”

Speaking of what happened today, Zang Hong was shocked, and then there was envy: "Could it be that Cai Yilang has decided to take you as an apprentice?" ”

"That's good."

Guo Peng shook his head: "How could everyone with Cai Yilang's status accept apprentices so easily?" I just got permission from Cai Yilang to accompany him to proofread the books, but he didn't recognize me as his disciple. ”

"That's something that no number of people can ask for! How did you do it? Teach me to do it, can't you? When I learned, I asked my father to introduce me to a famous teacher, and I also went directly to the teacher, which is much better than listening to those people in Taixue, who only care about preaching, and don't care about solving doubts! ”

Of course, this is the case in large classes with dozens or hundreds of people, and whether or not you learn well depends to a large extent on your personal practice.

Zang Hong didn't think that he was very smart, talented or something, so he also longed for a famous teacher, and his father just wanted to transform from a military general family to a scholar clan so he sent him to Taixue to become a boy boy.

However, there are not many families with the right time and place and successful transformation.
