Chapter 1: Madness and Madness

Jingshi Chang'an!

He Zhizhang rode the docile horse and returned to the He Mansion with a little eagerness.

These days, he is looking forward to retiring almost every day and returning to Hefu as soon as possible.

The ancients attached great importance to going to work, but they were very loose about retiring from work.

As soon as He Zhizhang found an opportunity today, he left early.

When they returned to the mansion, before they got off the horse, they had already shouted: "Brother Bo, where are we going to drink today?" ”

Bogao is the word of the grass saint Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu traveled all over the world, and it took more than ten years to travel almost all over the country.

He visited the great mountains and rivers of the motherland, drank all the fine wines in various places, and his words also became moving and ghostly because of the mountains, rivers, cliffs, valleys, birds, beasts, insects, fish, plants, trees, flowers, sun, moon and stars, wind and rain, water and fire, thunder and thunderbolts, and he could not be traced, and he appreciated the essence of cursive writing.

If Zhang Xu was a master of calligraphy ten years ago, but now Zhang Xu, in calligraphy, has entered the realm of grandmasters, especially in the vein of cursive, it will be the top of the mountain, at a glance.

But Zhang Xu, it's still Zhang Xu!

Even if the calligraphy realm is successful, he is still the crazy Zhang Dian.

and He Zhizhang's madman, crazy and crazy, complement each other.

"Brother He, you're late! The little brother has already drunk it! ”

Zhang Xu staggered out of the room, holding a wine jug in his left hand and a pen in his right hand, and said with a little apology: "I accidentally soiled Brother He's ground." ”

The title of Brother He was first called out by Pei Min, and Zhang Xu felt that he heard it kindly, so he also called it. It can be regarded as a unique personal title for the three of them.

He Zhizhang stepped forward and came closer, complaining: "I'm in a hurry to come......" He looked into the room, but saw a line of cursive writing on the ground, and said with a distressed face: "Brother is really, next time you write directly on the wall!" Writing on the ground can make people embarrassed! As he spoke, he immediately ordered his men not to clean the house for a short time.

After giving the order, he pulled Zhang Xu and said, "Let's go, go to the yard, let's continue to drink!" ”

Zhang Xu said: "It's too late to drink, our little brother has a letter, let's see what he says first." It's only been a long time since I've seen him, and he's already unattainable. ”

He Zhizhang exchanged letters with Pei Min a lot, and the tone of the letters was the same as before, without any anger, and said with a smile: "No matter how high he climbs, he is still our little brother." It's just that the three of us want to get together and have a good drink as we used to, but we don't have many opportunities. ”

said that he missed the days when Pei Min went to Beijing to catch the exam, and they ate, drank and had fun together, and he was not very embarrassed.

"Let's go and see, what does he say in the letter?" He pulled Zhang Xu and walked to the study.

For Pei Min, He Zhizhang is still a little grateful.

Not only the intimate relationship with each other, but also the help of officialdom.

Although Pei Min didn't do anything, who in the Manchu Dynasty didn't know his relationship with Pei Min?

The deception of officialdom is the most terrible, and if you are not careful, you may be stabbed and squeezed out.

He Zhizhang was not excluded because of Pei Min's relationship, he was in the position of a waiter for six years, and was in charge of the chief examiner of the imperial examination three times, and his resume was very beautiful.

Compared with the relationship with his superiors and subordinates in the officialdom, He Zhizhang prefers to linger in the major wine shops in the city and mingle with drunkards. In the officialdom, he has average connections and has been able to rise step by step to his current status, which has to be said to be a miracle.

When I came to the study, the desk in the center of the study was full of poems and articles sent from all over the place, all of which I hoped He Zhizhang would review.

Since becoming a university scholar, He Zhizhang has rarely commented on articles and poems, and he will only express one or two thoughts unless he is particularly standard.

In recent years, only Li Bai has been praised by Dao He Zhizhang, and because of this, Li Bai has been in the limelight for a while.

is not envied by others is a mediocre talent, Li Bai became an unknown person as soon as he became a descendant, not only became Pei Min's apprentice, but also He Zhizhang took such a fancy to him.

Not long after he first arrived in the capital, in just over a year, the situation has soared. The achievements and fame of Chang'an are even surpassing those old people who have been crawling for many years, only Pei Min's civil and military champions can be compared, how can he not be hated by others?

Li Yong's incident happened, and Li Baifeng's comments turned straight down, and there were never these red-eyed people, who fell into the well behind their backs and maliciously slandered.

Pei Min's letter was placed in the center of the desk, the most conspicuous seat.

He Zhizhang took the letter, pointed to the pile of manuscripts on the desk and said: "Brother Bo Gao help to see, Chang'an has many talents, maybe there are some amazing works hidden in it." ”

Zhang Xu casually went to a manuscript on the desk, and looked at the payment that was Luqi of Lingchang in Huazhou, opened it and read it, it was an article about filial piety, but after reading the beginning, there was only one thought in his mind, what kind of mess was written?

I threw it away, and I was about to read the second article, when I suddenly found that He Zhizhang's hand trembled slightly, and there were signs that I couldn't hold a few thin pieces of paper. Thinking of the various news that Chang'an had spread around a while ago, he was excited, and he woke up more than half of his spirit: "Isn't something happened to Jingyuan?" The wound on his arm is still healed? ”

He Zhizhang turned a deaf ear, stared at the boss with his eyes, and looked at it word by word, setting off a monstrous wave in his chest.

looked down page by page, but in just over 500 words, He Zhizhang read it for a quarter of an hour.

After reading it again, I couldn't help it, so I watched it a second time and a third time......

Until he wanted to watch it for the fourth time, he was taken away by a person next to him.

Zhang Xu hung on the side for a long time, screamed a few times, He Zhizhang ignored it, he couldn't help it, and reached out to grab it.

He Zhizhang came back to his senses from the shock, and it was still difficult to hide the excitement in his eyes, and said: "Eternal articles, eternal articles, Jingyuan's article is no less than Zhuge Kongming's "Teacher Table", Cao Zixiao's "Luo Shen Fu", and Wang Youjun's "Lanting Collection Preface", which is far-reaching, and even more above them. ”

Zhang Xu just saw the nonsense at the beginning of the letter, and the letter also talked about his injury, and listened to He Zhizhang's words, so he didn't read the content of the letter, and turned directly to the article at the back.

Just glanced at the beginning, Zhang Xu was attracted.

At the beginning of the article, I sighed with feelings directly, and went straight to the topic of being on the right path by generation? Or is it the truth? Is the truth important? Or is face important? Or is seniority equal to truth?

Then, around this theme, he bluntly talked about the bad habits in Shilin that respect seniority and elders.

Of course, the article also repeatedly emphasizes the moral concept of respecting the elderly, and at the same time, it also says that respecting the elderly should not be blind.

Immediately after Confucius's "shameless questioning" and the master in "The Teacher Said" came first, and played the finishing touch of undertaking the upper and lower levels.

In particular, the last sentence summarizes "There is no before and after learning, and the master is the teacher"......

Zhang Xu couldn't take his eyes off it, over and over again!
