Volume 1 Born Out of Thin Air Chapter 70 Zhao'an Zhong

The corners of Liu Chengdong's eyes twitched, and he drove these rough men out with Li Mengkong. happened to meet Li Xiang rushing here, and these crooked melons and cracked dates pulled him to greet him, Li Xiang and the interests of these people have long been linked, not to mention that many of them are still his uncles in terms of seniority, so they have to be polite.

Liu Chengliang heard a commotion outside, came out and saw the scene of pulling relatives, and scolded in his heart, stepped forward to drive away these old brothers who couldn't get on the stage, and then pulled Li Xiang to walk inside. "This Mr. Qingshi is amazing, you behave well and strive to be an apprentice or something."

Listening to Uncle Liang's chatter, Li Xiang's evaluation of the status of scholars and doctors has improved to another level, Uncle Liang, who has cut countless people in the green forest, actually respects this great Confucian so much, is it the same for the Great Song Dynasty in the original time and space?

When they arrived at the main hall, Wang Jue was drinking tea, and Liu Chengdong, Li Mengkong and others were talking left and right. Under the pressure of Liu Chengdong's stern gaze, Li Xiang had no choice but to respectfully step forward and salute the juniors, and then stand aside like a young lady in the boudoir, waiting for Mr. Qingshi to admonish.

"What a young man!" Wang Qi commented in his heart. Li Xiang is not too tall, but his body is very well-proportioned, and after a serious illness, he looks very capable after Liu Zhihe's recuperation and insistence on exercising. The sword eyebrows are like flying, and what is even more rare is that the bridge of the nose is straight, and a pair of eyes are very different from those of the mountain villager, which looks very bright. Liu Susu and Aunt Xiong's cut scholar's robes fit very well, and when they stood there straight, the image of a sunny and motivated scholar came out.

Li Mengkong looked at Li Xiang, and then at himself, who is a scholar? The old man is a child, if he didn't run away with Liu Chengdong but participated in the government ceremony, a show would not be able to run. Li Xiang's strange knowledge is not enough, wearing a sergeant's robe and actually having a nose and eyes, Li Mengkong thought for a while.

Those present were not Li Xiang's elders, or Li Mengkong's children, Wang Qi also knew what Liu Chengdong meant, but his apprentices were not accepted casually. Wang Qi squinted at Li Xiang for a while, and then asked him what books he had read.

Li Xiang had been prepared for a long time, and talked about his views on the articles he had stayed up late to read. Then he had an idea and took out the three-character scripture. As far as he knew, this kind of enlightenment reading had not yet appeared in Da Zhou.

Feeling weird, Li Xiang looked up. Okay, everyone present was dumbfounded, Li Mengkong was so excited that he was incoherent, and Wang Jue kept silently chanting "similar in sex, far away in Xi" What was he savoring. Although the two brothers Liu Chengdong didn't understand the great significance of this article, they knew that Wang Qi was very satisfied with Li Xiang, so they looked at each other and smiled.

Wang Qi settled down and asked Li Xiang: "I really don't need this trip to be able to appreciate such an article, but it's a pity that such an article didn't appear earlier." Who do you learn from, and where do you respect your teacher? ”

"The boy's knowledge was taught by a traveling Taoist priest. It was a few years ago, my father rescued a Taoist from outside, and after the heavy snow closed the mountain, the Taoist taught the boy three months of learning. Because of the tight time, the kid only learned a little bit of the surface, and this article was written by a prince according to the Taoist. ”

Other crafts such as iron furnaces and winter clothing were also taught, saying that even if they could not enter the prime minister in the future, they would be able to earn a share of the family business. Then when spring came, the Taoist chief took his leave, saying that he wanted to see the world outside the Great Zhou. ”

Li Xiang is very chicken thief, he knows that many people in Mingyue Village, including Liu Chengdong, want to know their roots. I'm safe now, but who knows if someone will catch him as a guinea pig in the future? Since you can't hide those advanced knowledge, and you are afraid that your roots can't resist suspicion, it is better to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to find a backer for your own origin and knowledge. Since it is said that this Mr. Qingshi is very good, then with his proof, it should make many people have scruples, right?

Wang Qi's testimony is not only useful, you must know that this benevolent brother is a contemporary Confucian, a character sought after by students from all over the world, made friends all over the world, and was often summoned into the palace by officials to chat. It is no exaggeration to say that Mr. Qingshi can decide the future of a student with just one sentence.

Li Xiang never thought that he was much smarter than others, after all, he was just a full-time high school graduate, but he was lucky to get the opportunity to use his advanced knowledge. So from the beginning, he didn't expect to impress Wang Jue with simple rhetoric, but relied on real acting skills to conquer everyone. Afterwards, Li Xiang was very embarrassed, and he couldn't help but think of his father and mother in another time and space while acting, so he burst into tears, choked up for a while, and everyone sighed.

Liu Chengdong, Li Mengkong and others completely let go of their concerns about Li Xiang's identity, and Wang Qi was a little skeptical of Li Xiang's words at first, but Li Xiang's true feelings persuaded him that he didn't believe that a young man who had never died could be so thick and black as to deceive himself. Where could Wang Qi have thought that the young man standing in front of him has the soul of the future generations and outstanding acting skills, not to mention that the true feelings are revealed when he acts......

The only person in the audience who was not impressed by Li Xiang's acting skills was probably Liu Susu. Su Su looked at Li Xiang, who had exploded in acting skills, with a complicated expression, and then touched the thing in his sleeve, do you want to hand over this singing iron pimple to Brother Li Xiang? Su Su hesitated for a while, but finally sighed, and then returned it to Brother Li Xiang after the wedding, what if he got this thing and flew away directly.

After Li Xiang's performance, Wang Jue asked him to sit next to him, and then began to carefully test the school's knowledge. Iron-making machinery and other craftsmanship were passed by Wang Jue, although many scholars and doctors also studied but always just side dishes, craftsmanship is always only obscene, and the carpenter and others sitting below are very lonely. Li Xiang also sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that this Mr. Qingshi also looks down on "strange skills".

Compared with the institutional improvement of Mingyuezhai and the medical innovation of the medical camp, Wang Qi attaches more importance to Arabic numerals, punctuation marks and pinyin notation. In order not to irritate the great Confucian, Li Xiang only introduced pinyin as a kind of Chinese annotation to Wang Jue, who recorded this knowledge while listening, and soon accumulated a large stack.

Liu Chengdong and Liu Chengliang received news from Xiong Dachun and Liu Yuan, saying that the officials of Xunyang Mansion and Nanyang Mansion had arrived at Zhaimen, so Liu Chengdong quietly left the table, not wanting to disturb his son-in-law's future. Wang Jue didn't notice that Zhao'an's "main master" was no longer there, and was listening attentively to Li Xiang's summary of the core idea of the pinyin logo.

“…… The Taoist chief said that the gentleman spent 20 years of hard work, learned scriptures from ancient Western books, and finally settled on 28 pinyin, and then set seven tones, covering most of the Chinese characters. Mengtong only needs to spend a period of time learning pinyin annotation, and then he can learn square characters on his own, which greatly reduces the difficulty of learning the text. As for the Arabic numerals, they were also something that the gentleman had asked for from an Indian monk to help them count. Li Xiang finally finished speaking, his mouth was a little dry, and he didn't dare to drink water, so he had to wipe his sweat and watch Wang Qi's pen fly.

Wang Qi quickly finished writing and handed it to his son to take it and spread it on the table, Li Xiang was shocked after glancing at it. Elegant calligraphy, strict sentences...... Just listening to Li Xiang speak in the vernacular, Mr. Qingshi automatically "translated" the things in Li Xiang's words into classical Chinese, and the battle was neat and catchy. Could this be the foundation of Confucianism? Don't be so tough.

Looking at Li Xiang as if he had never seen the world, Wang Qi was a little funny, and he felt a little proud in his heart. "Envious? It is necessary to know that you should learn first, and learn words before you go to school. From a person's calligraphy to know the character cultivation, then what quill pen to take to the craftsman to use, usually still use more brushes. ”

Although he didn't agree in his heart, Li Xiang still agreed verbally. "Thank you Master for your teachings."

Mr. Qingshi saw that Li Xiang had learned a lot, so he handed him his collection of essays and some books, and Li Xiang thanked him again. Then Wang Jue said: "The gentleman who sorted out Arabic numerals and Chinese pinyin didn't leave any name?" ”

Li Xiang made a look of reminiscence, and muttered in his mouth: "The Taoist only said that the senior offended someone, and he had to live in seclusion early, but he wanted a good death." But the senior didn't want to bring these things to the grave, so he handed them all over to the Taoist, and the Taoist said that in the end, I was cheaper, hehe. ”

Wang Jue leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh. He no longer doubted Li Xiang's rhetoric at all, because he had already stitched together the beginning and end of the whole story. According to the time calculation, the sage who sorted out the pinyin annotation should also be the loser of the shocking battle decades ago.

The chaos in the court decades ago, which began with the suppression of military officials by civilian officials and eventually swept the whole world, was terrible, and Wang Jue felt pain just thinking about it. So many virtuous people were driven out of the court, and many died of grief; It is not only the invincible Di Dashuai who suffers, but also scholars like Wang Jue; Since then, the Great Zhou Forbidden Army has been in a slump, and Huang Zhou has suffered several defeats in a row......

In Wang Jue's view, the great sage must have been disheartened after being kicked out of the court, so he buried himself in sorting out a set of knowledge, which was not uncommon in the scholar class. After the Taoist master got the knowledge of pinyin annotation and Arabic numerals, he passed it on to Li Xiang, a lucky boy, and he also carried a lot of miscellaneous knowledge. As for Li Xiang's origin, Wang Qi doesn't pay much attention to it, and there are not too many people who break down their families every year in the Great Zhou.

The sons of the Wang family had already arranged the paper on which the ink had dried, and one of them even took out a needle and thread and quickly bound it into a book. Li Xiang was dumbfounded again, this efficiency is simply amazing! The fat son in charge of binding saw Li Xiang's mouth open, and his expression was very disdainful, he should have regarded Li Xiang as a dirt bun.

Wang Qi wiped his tears with his sleeve, cleaned up his chaotic thoughts, and looked at Li Xiang with blazing eyes again. Li Xiang was a little nervous, does this old comrade Qingshi still want to do it? I heard that Dr. Song Mingshi, who was originally in time and space, liked to bring handsome scholars very much, and he could use them for emergency when necessary. Hey! No way?

If he knew that Li Xiang's mind was so dirty, it is estimated that there would be no next plot. I saw Wang Jue take out a jade pendant with blue on the top and white on the bottom from his sleeve and hand it to Li Xiang. The chubby young man who had ordered the book was indignant and wanted to speak, but was stopped by a tall and thin companion beside him.

"We're just children of the family, we have to know where we are!" The good-hearted companion said this, and the fat Wang Xiaojiu was a little depressed when he heard this, so he had to look at it sullenly.

Li Xiang held this jade pendant for some reason, Li Mengkong next to him was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly reminded him with sign language. Li Xiang suddenly realized, "The teacher is above, please be worshiped by the disciple!" ”
