Volume 1 Chapter 14 Cao Zhi
Wu Kuang's actions are quite willful, and in Shi Ziyi's words, he is quite heroic.
According to Liu Bian's assumption, Wu Kuang took Shi Ziyi's entrustment to visit Yangqiu, which was nothing more than to explain three things about Yangqiu, one of which was to hope that Yangqiu could stop in moderation and not force people too much and anger Cao Jie; The second is to hope that Yangqiu can retreat bravely, remove the position of Si Li's captain, and save himself; The third is to give Yang Qiu confidence, and the matter of punishing eunuchs will not stop, but it must be slowly figured out.
However, when the words came out of Wu Kuang's mouth, the taste changed in an instant.
First, if you don't know what to do, and you still want to kill Cao Jie, then even if it happens, what is Shi Ziyi? What are your yang balls?
Second, your Yangqiu is a capable person, so you naturally want to save yourself, but Cao Jie is really hateful, so what should I do? It's okay, I, Wu Kuang, don't have any skills, and I'm willing to kill Cao Jie for your Yang Qiu.
Third, Cao Jie is a big scourge, kill him, I Wu Kuang can't wait.
There is one thing that Shi Ziyi said is not wrong at all, although Wu Kuang is a small wealthy family of Chen Liu, but when he is young, he considers himself a ranger, full of ranger temperament, what is a ranger? To put it simply, it can be summed up in two words, that is, to relive life and righteousness, and to save people in urgent need.
Yang Qiu is a hero, a big husband, Wu Kuang saw it in his eyes, admired and respected, and the ranger spirit in his heart rose suddenly, so he couldn't stop, he was not afraid of death, in his words, that was a good head, take it.
So coming out of the Yangqiu Mansion, Wu Kuang made a decision, no matter what, he must do this for Yangqiu, after all, Shi Ziyi can only be regarded as an ordinary friend, and His Royal Highness Liu Wei is not his benefactor, in the final analysis, his loyal person is only He Jin, but Wu Kuang decided to do this matter He Jin did not object to in the end, otherwise how could he have to participate in the ranks of Yangqiu eunuchs with Shi Ziyi that day?
Yangqiu's eunuch is not just to punish Wang Fu alone, the bigger target is Cao Jie, Wu Kuang knew it from the beginning. Moreover, killing Cao Jie has more or less his own will in it, which is the reason why it is not necessary or intended to explain to Yang Qiu.
In June of the same year, Yang Qiu took the initiative to resign from the post of lieutenant of Si Li, and the emperor responded on the spot, and read that Yang Qiu had made a meritorious contribution to killing the criminal minister Wang Fu and reappointed him as a guard lieutenant.
As everyone knows, this seems to be a simple retreat and an advance, but it completely rewrites the life trajectory of Yangqiu, and even the life trajectory of hundreds of thousands of heroes and heroes, and the wind of the last four hundred years of the Han Dynasty is about to sweep the entire Han Empire from the capital Luoyang.
"It's windy again......". Cai Yong sorted out the bamboo rolls piled up in front of him, looked at the heavy clouds in the sky in front of the courtyard, and said leisurely.
"Master, the person who is endowed with beauty, can you have eyebrows?" Looking at his master's sad face, the servant standing beside him asked softly.
"It's been half a month, and there is no news." Cai Bojiao looked at the bamboo roll in his hand and sighed helplessly.
It turned out that Cai Yong's sorting out and copying of the Hongdu stone tablet was much simpler than copying and carving the stone scriptures before Taixue. After all, Taixue Shijing involves classics, which need to be proofread, checked, and prepared for a long time, and then copying and carving, which is naturally extremely time-consuming, but Hongdu Shifu is different.
First of all, the poems that need to be copied and engraved are almost all made by Hongdu students, which is a product of the current era, no proofreading, no need to check, as long as it is exquisite enough, and has been recognized by several lecturers in Hongdu and even Emperor Liu Hong, it can be directly copied for seal carving.
The second is that the stele in front of the Taixue Gate is one meter long, three meters high, and the process of copying and carving is quite difficult, and the Hongdu stele is to absorb the experience of the Taixue stele, the regulation is one point and five meters long, two meters high, and it is much more convenient to copy and engrave.
In this way, all the seventy-two wonderful poems were selected in less than a year, and even if it was a copy of the engraving project, it was roughly three-quarters completed. It can be regarded as a great way to complete the task assigned by the emperor ahead of schedule, so it seems to be a happy thing.
But Cai Yong was not happy at all, because of an incident that happened half a month ago.
A few months ago, all the seventy-two wonderful poems to be engraved on the Hongdu stele were selected, but after the lecturers of Hongdu and the emperor, none of them could surpass the two sentences that He Jin gave when he was impartial. And He Jin, no matter what, there is no way to complete these two sentences of his inspiration, the emperor is extremely regretful, so he has to issue an edict that those who can fill this endowment should be the main inscription.
For a time, Luoyang and even the surrounding states and counties were ordered to fill in the assignment, Cai Yong as the chief judge of the selection and filling of the works, there was a strange landscape like a mountain at home, but although there are many works, they either lose their charm or lose their artistic conception, not rhetoric, or they are flat and straightforward, and they are filled like mountains, but there is almost no endowment that can be compared with the two sentences that He Jin said.
Until one evening half a month ago, Cai Bojiao, who was dizzy and even a little mentally disturbed, read countless bamboo scrolls, and finally saw the following words after countless "Flowing Wind and Snow" and "Ritual Quiet Leisure".
As the saying goes: "Looking at it from afar, it is as bright as the sun rising to the morning glow; Forced to observe it, the scorching waves appeared. The fiber is medium, and the fit is shortened. If the shoulders are cut, the waist is as plain. Stretch the neck and show the neck, and the quality is exposed. There is no addition to Fangze, and there is no lead Hua. ”
Or say: "Tenderness and flattery in words." The strange clothes are magnificent, and the bone image should be pictured. The brilliance of the cloth, the brilliance of the Yaobi. Wear gold and emerald jewelry, embellished with pearls to show off your body. Practice the literature of the long journey, and drag the light of the fog. The fragrance of the faint orchid is stumbling in the corner of the mountain. So he suddenly indulged in the body, in order to play. Leaning on the left and picking the flag, the right shade the laurel flag. Hold your wrist in the gods and pick the turbulent Xuanzhi. ……”
Cao Zhi, with the suffix name, is called "Luo Shen Fu".
Such words, approaching a thousand words, turned out to be the longest article Cai Bojiao had read in half a month.
Poor Cai Bo recently knew the destiny of heaven, and after reading this fu, he cried bitterly, like a crazy demon, like dementia. The servants didn't know the reason, and they were so worried that they didn't dare to ask each other.
Cai Bojiao carried this endowment into the palace early the next morning, and the emperor's reaction was actually similar to Cai Bojiao, from the moment he started to read the whole article, he said "good" twenty-nine times in a row. Later, it was also crying bitterly, not like dementia.
There is no one who can understand the emperor's mood at this moment better than Cai Bojiao.
The emperor issued an order on the spot, and the whole city looked for this Wenzong named Cao Zhi, and Cai Yong personally copied and engraved this on the main monument of Hongdu.
Cai Yong has never been so happy to receive the order, just arrived at home, and a small yellow door came to the door to announce the decree, saying that the emperor Liu Hong added a decree, and will look for this literary boss named Cao Zhi in the Central Plains, and according to his words, change "Beauty Fu" to "Luo Shen Fu", and ask Cai Yong to change the name before copying and carving, and ask Cai Yong to smash the stone tablet engraved with two sentences of "Beauty Fu" on the beauty platform.
Cai Yong naturally didn't argue much, and calmly understood.
This matter has ended here, it can be said that everything is going well, and the family is happy, but in the past half a month, Cao Zhi has found more than 20 seventy old men who are as old as gray hair, and as young as a childish boy who has just tied his hair, but none of them can recite this "Luo Shen Fu". Cai Yong simply lowered the difficulty, but even after reading it a few times, there was no one who could recite half of the article or even a few sentences.
Fu Kui has appeared, Wen Zong has not appeared, how can such a scene not make Cai Bojiao, who reads Fu Chengmo, extremely tormented? He was also afflicted by Emperor Liu Hong.
Liu Hong issued another decree, looking for this eldest brother named Cao Zhi nationwide, and even the clue provider can reward him with a reward ranging from 1,000 to 100,000 according to the value of the clue, which can be regarded as fulfilling his promise, and the income from the Xidi (harmonious) official will be used for the people after all.
In June of the second year of Guanghe, just like more than 100 years ago, Wang Mang of the New Dynasty investigated and killed "Liu Xiu" throughout the country, and the Han Dynasty set off a "Cao Zhi" fever.
The so-called: planting a grain of millet in spring is difficult to harvest more than 100 seeds. Hard work for two or three autumns, it is better to find Cao Zhi.
