Chapter 30 Reactions of the Parties New Year's Playing Cards

"Wuji, what do you say about Bai Fan?" In the palace of King Qin, Li Shimin summoned the eldest grandson Wuji alone and asked.

How shrewd the eldest grandson Wuji was, although he didn't know why King Qin asked like this, but he knew that something must have happened, and replied with his beard: "Your Highness, this person is not very easy to evaluate, he gives people the feeling that it is strange, as strange as imagination, although he is only fourteen years old, but his wisdom is extraordinary, you will never know what this person's next thought is, because his thinking is too flexible to ponder!" I wonder why His Highness asked? ”

Li Shimin listened silently, sighed and said: "Yesterday, he accompanied his eldest brother to a banquet alone in the Wangjing Tower, and it is said that the two talked very happily, and they were also cited as confidants in the cup!" ”

This! Is there such a thing?

"Xu is Bai Fan doesn't know the identity of the other party! With his wisdom, he would not have been unaware of the fact that it was so easy to get into trouble for himself! ”

Li Shimin looked at the eyes of the eldest grandson Wuji, "Do you really not know?" ”

"Your Majesty is not easy to judge, but after all, he has promised to belong to our Qin Palace, if he really has two hearts, he will not go down to make friends with His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Nodding, Li Shimin said: "Well, that's true, but for Bai Fan's son, we still have to take the school again, after all, it is a character who appeared out of thin air, I'm afraid you don't know, his father Bai Da used to be Pharmacist Li's personal guard, and Pharmacist Li's position has not been very obvious, we have to guard against it!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty knows about it, and will send someone to pay close attention to Bai Fan."

Similarly, in the prince's mansion, Li Jiancheng also summoned his confidant Wei Zheng.

"Xuan Cheng, do you know Bai Fan?"

The two sat opposite each other, and Wei Zheng was also quite casual, and replied: "Well, Bai Fan has been a great talent in Chang'an in recent days, how can your subordinates not know?"

Not to mention the three-character scripture above the court, just the white characters that Yu Shinan wants to treasure, Chang'an has spread the name of the Bai family, and some people even commented that Bai Fan can be compared with the right army of the book saint king in the future!

Yesterday, in the Wangjing Tower, Bai Fan became famous with a poem, the drunken fairy poem, coupled with the calligraphy that stands alone in the world, the name of the poetry and book is not the same as that of everyone, and it is already a household name in Chang'an, I am afraid that it will not be long before it will spread throughout the Tang Dynasty!

Why did His Highness suddenly mention this person? Don't you want to recruit them?

You and I both know that Bai Fan was recommended by His Royal Highness the King of Qin, nominally to recruit talents for the country, but in fact he is a person from the side of the King of Qin, we have to recruit, I'm afraid it will not be easy! ”

Of course Li Jiancheng knew this, "No, Xuancheng misunderstood!" Yesterday, in the observation tower, Lone met this person by chance, and had a good conversation with him, and he was a friend in the cup!

During this period, he vaguely mentioned the troubles of disharmony between brothers due to property disputes in the family, do you know how Bai Fan answered? ”

"Oh? Does he know who you are? Avoid talking about it? ”

With his intelligence, he may not have known it at first, but he will definitely be able to guess it later, but it is not a little broken!

But Qi is strange here, since he knows Lone's identity, he doesn't shy away from it, and gives Lone a suggestion of his opinion. ”

Wei Zheng was puzzled: "This, how is it possible?" Isn't he afraid of King Qin's suspicions? Could it be that he wants to serve His Highness? ”

"Hahahaha! Xuan Cheng is wrong, don't speculate, this person is witty and has wild ideas, and he can't be judged by ordinary people's reasoning.

He said that my father left a fortune to our three brothers, and the original intention was to let us use this wealth to create more glory and win greater wealth, not to let us guard the shadow of our predecessors and brothers compete to ruin the family business! ”

Wei Zheng nodded, "Yes, this is indeed the case, if you look at today's saints from a father's point of view, he must think so!" This son is indeed strange, can the battle for the throne be explained in this way?

However, this view is feasible for ordinary people, but it is not appropriate to put it on the battle for the throne, after all, there is only one throne in the world! ”

Li Jiancheng said: "Yes, I thought the same way at the time, but Bai Fan finally sent me a sentence, he said, 'The only thing that limits us is always the vision', I think hard to this day, I still can't understand this words, I just think that this is extraordinary, maybe it is really the height of this statement has surpassed our vision!" ”

After Wei Zheng listened quietly, he fell into deep thought!

This statement is indeed a lofty theory, and it seems to be extremely clever!

Vision, we have experienced the world, and now we are caught in infighting and party fighting, do you mean that our vision has become shorter? Or is there a wider world in the world that we need to open up?

In this era when we only know Dongyi, Nanban, Xirong, Beidi, and the Central Plains, if you want these ancients to know the vastness of the world, unless Bai Fan comes out with a globe, these two people will never be able to figure it out, and at most they can think that the glorious hegemony of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is the limit!

And after learning that Bai Fan was praised as a poetry and book, Yu Shinan, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other people who knew each other well were all praising each other, praising this fourteen-year-old boy one by one, which made the children and grandchildren of these families suffer, and none of them escaped the clutches of being educated by the elders!

Time passes day by day, and in a blink of an eye, it has reached the end of the year, that is, it is about to celebrate the New Year, because it is the depths of winter at this time, Bai Fan's new house has not yet been built, according to Fang Xuanling, it will be a month at the earliest!

In the first New Year of the Tang Dynasty, that is, he went back to burn a piece of paper money in front of his father Bai Da's grave and worshipped him, and worshiped his ancestors in the Bai clan ancestral hall, and after sending some money to his neighbors, he has been in the Laojun Temple, in his words, there is no worry about eating and drinking here, and the most important thing is warmth!

Several apprentices also went home for the New Year, Bai Fan was bored, thinking, how can there be no entertainment during the New Year, Lao Junguan is cold and deserted, and he must bring joy here, then get a New Year's artifact - playing cards!

"Senior brother, this card is really extraordinary, fifty-four is the number of six and nine, six is the number of yin and nine is the number of yang, which is deeply in line with the way of yin and yang!

Two trump cards, representing the poles of yin and yang, four suits represent spring, summer, autumn and winter, thirteen cards of each suit, implying the principle of gossip of the five elements! Wonderful!

It is only used for gambling and entertainment games, but it is a little inferior, and this thing should be of great use! Yuan Tiangang held twenty cards and spoke.

Bai Fan said with a smile: "Senior brother is talented, you can see through the mystery at a glance, and the junior brother admires it!" However, this time in the gambling game, the senior brother should also concentrate on playing cards, otherwise you will pay back the fifty taels of gambling money you owe before!

You said no matter how fanciful, this arrears of gambling debts are always not hidden, bad luck and put the landlord, play cards do not win, and do not concentrate some, the little brother has to say that your cards are not as good as character! ”

Yuan Tiangang's embarrassed old face turned red, "Look at what my junior brother said, because my brother knows that he owes a lot of debts, isn't this thinking about playing a few more to pay off gambling debts!" ”

Li Chunfeng snorted and laughed out loud, his master belongs to the kind of addiction and poor skills that his uncle said, but he still has to talk about some crooked reasoning!

"Humph! Dare to ridicule as a teacher, tomorrow you will be punished to copy the Tao Te Ching ten times, just after the beginning of spring, the Taoist temple will accept disciples, and you can take out the books you have copied in the past year! Yuan Tiangang reprimanded.

Li Chunfeng's face was bitter, it was really a disaster!

Then he remembered something, and said with tears in his mouth: "Master, the apprentice has copied about fifty Taoist scriptures in the past year, but some time ago he suddenly disappeared, and I don't know who stole it. ”

And such things? Yuan Tiangang frowned!

Bai Fan's old face was slightly red, and he smiled secretly in his heart, it was for his uncle to take it, if it wasn't for the scriptures copied by his nephew, where would he find good toilet paper? Datang's bamboo toilet chips are really useless!

Yuan Tiangang had already noticed Bai Fan's abnormality, and he coughed slightly, "In this case, you can copy some more, don't worry about those, they are all hand-copied versions, nothing is precious, if it's gone, it's gone!" ”

Li Chunfeng: ......
