Chapter 36: Reasoning with Li Hong
A jar of sorghum wine, three coins of mutton, but unfortunately the mutton did not eat a few bites, and a few cups of sorghum wine drunk the two people.
On the third watch of the day, Lu Buti got up. And Qian Duo was lying on the side holding his broken pocket.
The academy used to have two people, one in white and one in green.
Tsing Yi learns martial arts, and white reads. Compared with white clothes, Tsing Yi is more suitable for reading.
At that time, Tsing Yi of the academy still liked to laugh and scold God, saying that God didn't open his eyes, and sooner or later he would have to poke a hole for him like a co-worker.
In the end, Tsing Yi's laughter and scolding were seen as a joke, while Bai Yi could only be in a house of ten thousand books, from black hair to white hair.
And the academy is now two people, two dressed in white, one old and one young.
"Get up." Qian Duo felt that his head was still a little cloudy, but the high sun shone on his face through the window and knew that it was not too early.
"Master, what time is this?"
The day was divided into twelve hours, and Qian Duo looked at the sun hanging high outside and knew that it should be almost noon. And the exact time is not known.
"It's time for you to get up."
It was said that it was a bed, but a few sage books were used to cushion it under the body to prevent the ground from being too cold in winter and freezing the two of them.
Qian Duo got up with a yawn and folded the quilt. The leftover lamb from yesterday is still in the pot, so it would be good to add some firewood to heat it up.
After eating, the sun was slowly tilting to the west, and Qian Duo guessed that the third day of coming to Chang'an would pass peacefully.
"Well, when are you going to learn martial arts?"
Qian ate more quickly, and Lu Buxi still had a bowl in his hand, but he didn't eat in his mouth.
The so-called food is silent, sleep is silent. Lu Buti reads the Analects every day, and naturally does a good job.
"Learn martial arts? I think it's harder. ”
Qian Duo felt that it was really difficult, because learning martial arts requires persistence, and Qian Duo is very lazy.
"The people in the academy can't even fight, so you still want to stay in the academy?"
What Lu Buti said is natural, and this person who has read thousands of books has not read his brain badly, or like those pedantic Confucians.
"Master, you don't seem to know martial arts, and you can't fight."
"Who said that your master can't fight, your master is just not uncommon to fight with them."
Although Lu Buti said so, Qian Duo didn't believe it at all. If that were the case, at least the sign of the academy would not have been removed.
"Then master, what are you fighting with?"
"Your master reads a lot of books, and when the time comes, others will not quit themselves."
I don't know how to ask, if so
"When I went to buy mutton, I heard that you were scolded by the insiders in Zhang's butcher's house."
After speaking, it is estimated that it is very likely that his master will turn his face and not recognize people.
"Then I learn martial arts?"
Qian Duo doesn't care much about his own master, after all, there are some things that still need to be learned, after all, he still needs to find a prince named Li Hong to wipe his eyes.
"Learn martial arts? What kind of suffering did you suffer? Or do you have the same self-confidence as your uncle? ”
The guys of the older generation know that there is a seowon in Chang'an, while the older generation knows that there is a Qian family in Gyeongju.
As for Qian Duo's ability to enter the academy, it actually has a lot to do with this Qian surname.
"So what am I going to study?"
Of course, Qian Duo didn't want to learn martial arts, if he really wanted to learn martial arts, he would have a genius uncle there, and he wouldn't use the academy at all.
"Maybe it's too early."
Lu Buti said a sentence without a beginning or an end. I don't know what he said too soon.
"Been in Chang'an for three days?"
Lu Buti then asked Qian Duo, and he didn't plan to explain what he meant to Qian Duo in the previous words. I didn't say anything more about learning martial arts.
"Yes, I've been in Chang'an for three days."
On the first day, I went to the academy, on the second day, I went to the emperor, and on the third day, I got up at three poles. Three days always feels like a long time.
"By the way, what are you doing in Chang'an?"
Lu Buti seemed to suddenly remember, because the people of the Qian family generally didn't like to come out.
The eldest of the Qian family and the second eldest of the Qian family both like to stay at home, and the one who likes to come out is the third child of the Qian family.
"Come to Chang'an, there is a prince named Li Hong who wants to marry my bed warmer, I will reason with him."
Of course, I thought very well before I came to Chang'an, but this time it was much worse than when I was eight years old. There is one less pity by his side, but he has to do a lot of things by himself.
And this road is not alone, the two oil bottles have improved their food.
"Reason with the prince? But I remember that Li Hong doesn't seem to be an ordinary prince. ”
Qian Duo didn't answer, just grabbed his brain and kept laughing, which is an action that Qian Duo would do when he felt embarrassed since he was a child.
"Are you waiting for the crown prince to succeed to the throne and then kill you all?"
This kind of thing is not uncommon, nine years ago, in the rivers and lakes, Datang's iron cavalry was still flattened.
"Hehe, in fact, I didn't do this too boldly, but my uncle and uncle who couldn't stand it said that if the Qian family was really just reasoning, it would be too boring."
Of course, just Qian Duo's "just reasoning is too boring" has revealed too many things.
If you don't use the Datang Iron Horse to step on the Qian family, I always feel sorry, this sentence is too boring.
Lu Buti always felt that the academy had received a trouble. But Lu Buti laughed, there were only two people in the academy, but they had never been afraid of trouble.
"Li Hong can't be the emperor?"
The academy is not afraid of trouble, but it does not mean that the Qian family is not afraid of trouble, if it is really more money to come to the academy, then is it also a metaphor for the Qian family?
And Qian Duo didn't think about it so much, if he thought too much, he would have to do a lot, it would be very tiring, and Qian Duo was really lazy.
"I don't know, where do I know what will happen in the future."
Qian Duo really didn't know if Li Hong could be the emperor at that time, he just knew that there would be an eternal female emperor Wu Zetian in the future.
"Can't you talk to your master?"
"I really don't know anything."
Of course, looking at his master's expression, he must not believe it.
"If Li Hong can't be the emperor, who will be?"
Lu Buti couldn't figure it out, because he was not familiar with several of Li Zhi's children. And the people he knew were two rebels and died, and one was sitting on the royal chair.
"Master, I really don't know."
Qian Duo cried with a sad face and said to Lu Buti.
"What did the emperor ask you when you entered the palace?"
Lu Buti thought back to yesterday and always felt as if something was wrong.
"Didn't leave you for a meal?"
Qian Duo looked at the thatched roof, and always felt that tears began to fill his eyes.
"Forget it, it's evening, let's eat."
Lu Buti was also a little tired when he said it, took a sip of a glass of white water, and said to Qian Duo.
Qian Duo set up the pot used for lunch meal, and there was no meat in it, only a few pieces of wild vegetables remained.
The master and apprentice have a bowl of rice for each person, but they are extremely happy to eat, and for no other reason, the academy has no money
