Just when Chang He sighed for a long time, someone next to him asked Chang He:

"Benefactor, the book has been sent, and I believe there will be a response soon!" Chang He looked at that person and recalled his adventure in Xinfeng - just a month ago, Chang He was depressed, and was pulled down by his friends to hunt in the area of Lishan, and when he came back, he met Xinfeng County, and it was already very late:

"General He, if it's already late today, let's go to Xinfeng City, eat, stay for one night, and then hurry tomorrow?" Although Guanzhong is Li Tang's heartland, it is still very dangerous to travel at night, although there is no 'car bandit road rage' during the day, but at night, there are still some 'business' people, so it is best to rush in broad daylight, Chang He followed the advice of his friends. 23US. update the fastest into Xinfeng City, just when Chang He and they were looking for inn accommodation everywhere, they suddenly heard a loud noise in a hotel, Chang He and his friends heard the sound and followed the sound to find it, only to see a person in a tavern who looked like a shopkeeper arguing about this one wearing the clothes of a patch man:

"Where did you come from the poor sour, you are here to cheat and eat and drink!"

"The shopkeeper, I came here to eat and drink, where did I cheat and drink?"

"Just your clothes, it can be seen that you have no money, you still want wine, you want good wine, go to you, okay, I have vegetarian noodles here, a bowl for a few pennies, do you want it, if you don't want it, leave quickly!"

"Shopkeeper, you are really a dog's eye!"

"What?! How fucking dare you curse! You shitty poor sour, hurry up and get out of Lao Tzu, don't hinder Lao Tzu from doing business! Get out! ”

"Humph! Get out of here, you! Lao Tzu told you that if you don't bring wine to Lao Tzu today, Lao Tzu will not leave. ”

"Hey! You bastard, you're still working hard with Lao Tzu, aren't you? If you don't leave, I'll beat you to death! ”

"Hit! Lao Tzu is not a vegetarian either. Chang He felt strange, so he asked the person next to him, only to learn that this person was shabby, this shop second is also the owner of this store, seeing this person's dress, thinking that he has no money, and that person wants wine and meat, of course the second shop is unwilling, but that person, pour a bucket of eight liters of wine, of course the shopkeeper is unwilling, so they quarreled. Chang He saw that person had some fists and kicks on him, and immediately pulled the two people apart, :

"Ugh! What are you doing for such a thing!? Shopkeeper, I settled this brother's wine money and meat money. But brother, drinking hurts your body, isn't this bucket of eight liters of wine too much!? Chang He saw this person's temperament, he should have read a book. Seeing Chang He so enthusiastic, the man sat down. And introduced himself:

"Thank you Brother Tai, in the dismount week, the amount of alcohol since childhood is good, today, let Brother Tai see the amount of alcohol under it!" When the second shopkeeper brought a bucket of eight liters of wine to Chang He and Ma Zhou.

"Humph! Look at you poor sour drinking to death! Ma Zhou didn't care about the eyes of the second shop, and shouted directly to the second shop:

"Shopkeeper, if I drink all this bucket of eight liters of wine, can you get rid of my wine money and meat money." The second shopkeeper didn't reply, and the person next to him coaxed:

"Hey, my second brother, if this person can really take this bucket of eight liters of wine, in my opinion, it is better to give this wine money for free." There is humanity that is more familiar with the second brother:

"I'm Wu Er! If this person can drink up a bucket of eight liters of wine, then I see that your shop is also famous, so it is better to get rid of it! The second brother, instigated by the people around him, puffed up his horse and said:

"Good! If you can drink this bucket of eight liters of wine, I'll give you the money for this drink, but if you can't drink it......"

"I'll give you ten times the money for the drink."

"Do you have any money?" Chang He persuaded on the side:

"Brother, don't force yourself, I'll pay for this wine and meat!" Ma Zhou stopped Chang He's hand:

"Brother, please don't scruple and show you a good show next." After Ma Zhou, he picked up the wine jar and poured it into his mouth, and the wine was poured into his mouth like a waterfall, and the wine was poured into it, and there was no half-drunk appearance on his face, and the people watching around him were amazed:

"Look, this guy can really drink!"

"Yes! It's already three jars, and this person isn't drunk yet! ”

"What a lot of kung fu!" The surrounding onlookers were all amazed, and after Ma Zhou drank this bucket of eight liters of wine, he wiped his mouth:

"Ahh It's really good wine! Ma Zhou's face was not red, and he walked towards the second store without shaking:

"Second brother, it's really good wine, it's just that this wine money ......" The second pair of shops knelt down with Ma Zhou:

"This guest officer! Just for the sake of my business, spare people! Please, please! The second shopkeeper kowtowed to Ma Zhou, and the onlookers next to him were a little unhappy:

"Hey! I'm Wu Er! That's what's wrong with you. Your own, as long as others drink this bucket of eight liters of wine, you will get rid of the wine money, where does this start! "Where is the second store Kenyi:

"No! I'm here to run a business, and this wine is free, but it's a few thousand dollars! No, how can I live! Chang He looked at the second shop, so he took out the silver taels and gave them to the second shop:

"Second brother, this is wine money, don't cry, get us some wine and food, we're hungry."

"Yes! Be! Be! Be! Thank you, guest! Thank you, guest! Come now, come now! After the wine and food came up, Ma Zhou thanked the man:

"Thank you, brother, for breaking the siege!"

"Brother Ma Zhouxian, I am in the next Changhe, thank you Brother Xian for letting me see this good show, I just don't know what the virtuous brother has now!?"

"Brother Tai, in the next never fatherless mother, later with some three teachings and nine streams of the gangsters, and then after adulthood, I learned from the pain, I don't want to go down, fortunately I got the famous teacher, I learned something, and then the new dynasty was established, and I was awarded the assistant teacher of Bozhou, but because of my addiction to alcohol, I repeatedly made mistakes, so I went to work! Now I want to go to Chang'an and see if I can ask for another position! Chang He saw that Ma Zhou's face was white, and he felt that he was in love with Ma Zhou, so he started to solicit:

"Brother Ma Zhouxian, who is serving as a doctor in Chang'an, lacks a staff member at home, but I don't know if the virtuous brother is willing to give in, in addition, the virtuous brother can rest assured, he still has some contacts in Chang'an, and he will definitely recommend the virtuous brother when the time comes!"

"Ahh Then thank you big brother. After Chang He brought Ma Zhou back to the mansion, he dealt with writing affairs, but after Ma Zhou entered Chang He's mansion, he immediately knew that there were three literati in Chang He's mansion, but Ma Zhou never admitted defeat, just after Li Jiancheng ordered the issuance of the order to ask for advice, Ma Zhou immediately handed over his "Warehouse Book on Both Sides of the Canal" to Chang He, on the one hand, it was to help Chang He relieve the siege, and on the other hand, he also wanted to find a background for himself, Chang He looked at Ma Zhou, no words, at this time, the porter ran in a panic:

"Master, master, Mingyu's father-in-law in the palace is here."

"Ahh Please! At this time, Mingyu's father-in-law had already come in:

"Doctor Taizhong often accepts orders!"

"Doctor Taizhong often accepts orders!" Father-in-law Mingyu spread out the holy decree:

"Since ancient times, Yao has Hou Yi, except. Monkey, chisel teeth, nine babies, strong winds, seal pigs, repair snakes to become the son of heaven, Shun Ju with "eight Kai", "eight yuan" and other governance of civil affairs, and the prosperous world, so I think of it, since ancient times to get the virtuous ministers to get the world, now there is Taizhong Doctor Chang He on the "Canal Banks of the Storage Book" is very in line with my intentions, and the fate of Chang He will immediately enter the palace to face the saint, Qin this! ”

"Doctor Taizhong often thanked Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live!" After Chang He received the order, Mingyu's father-in-law continued:

"Lord Chang, Your Majesty has another word for our family to bring to you!"

"Oh! Father-in-law, please speak! ”

"Your Majesty, please bring the ghostwriter and the person who catches the knife into the palace to face the saint!"

"Yes! Wechen obeys! When Ma Zhou stood in front of Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng carefully observed Ma Zhou, and recalled the Ma Zhou information handed over by the Qilin secret guard - Ma Zhou, a native of Chiping, Qinghe (now Chiping Town, Chiping County, Shandong), Ma Nian became an orphan when he was young, his family was poor, he liked to learn, and he was not respected by the state because of poverty and frustration. During the Wude period, Ma Zhou was appointed as an assistant teacher in Bozhou, drinking alcohol every day and not taking the lecture seriously. Assassin Shi Shi Xi Shu reprimanded many times, Ma Zhou resigned angrily, wandered between Cao and Bian, and was insulted by Junyi Ling Cui Xianshou, so he traveled west to Chang'an in anger. Staying in Xinfeng's hotel, the shopkeeper only entertained the vendors and did not take care of Ma Zhou, Ma Zhou was not angry, and the shopkeeper had a dispute, and was dissuaded by the Taizhong doctor Chang He, Ma Zhou then asked for a bucket of eight liters of wine, and drank in the store without getting drunk. This Ma Zhou is also a famous minister of the Tang Dynasty in history, one of the prime ministers, in the original history, Ma Zhou was summoned by Li Shimin because of his admonition, and Li Shimin ordered Ma Zhou to serve on duty in Menxia Province. In the sixth year of Zhenguan, Ma Zhou was appointed to supervise the imperial history, and soon he was appointed to serve the imperial history and the doctor of the Jiasan Dynasty. In the eleventh year of Zhenguan, because of his meritorious advice, he was promoted to the middle of the matter. After 12 years of Zhenguan, he was transferred to the middle school. In the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, he was promoted to the imperial history of the secretary, and also the doctor of the advice, and also the history of the chief of the Jin Dynasty. The king of Jin is the crown prince, and he is the right concubine of the prince. In the eighteenth year of Zhenguan, Ma Zhou was promoted to Zhongshu Ling, and he still served as the prince's right concubine. In the nineteenth year of Zhenguan, after Taizong returned from the expedition to Goryeo, Ma Zhou acted as the official of the Ministry of Shangshu. In the twenty-first year of Zhenguan (647), he added silver Qingguanglu doctor.

In the twenty-second year of Zhenguan, Ma Zhou died at the age of forty-eight. Taizong posthumously presented him as the governor of Youzhou and was buried in Zhaoling. Gaozong succeeded to the throne and posthumously presented Shangshu's right servant and Gaotang County Gong. During the vertical arch years, it is worthy of enjoying the temple court of Gaozong. Ma Zhou advised Taizong many times, and played a positive role in the political reform during the Zhenguan period and even the formation and continuation of the "rule of Zhenguan". His surviving works include five articles: "Shangtaizong Shu", "Chen Shizheng Shu", "Please Advise and Reward Shu", "Counsel the Princess Day Marriage Shu" and "Please Briefly Choose the County Order Shu", as well as two poems, "Sentence" and "Ling Dynasty Fujiang Travel Thoughts". Li Jiancheng looked at Ma Zhou, and Ma Zhou only felt that his whole body was numb-His Majesty is as good as Longyang! Ma Zhou's embarrassment was seen by Li Jiancheng.

"Ma Qingjia, you wrote the "Warehouse Book on Both Sides of the Canal!?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Why did you think of this?"

"Your Majesty! The minister came all the way from Bozhou, toured along the canal, and found that the boats transporting grain were rotten because of the water transportation, and the people were difficult to eat a mouthful of food! That's why the minister came up with this solution! ”

"Good! Ma Zhou, I will now appoint you as an edict from the six grades, and listen to the decree in the province under the door, Chang He, you recommend the virtuous and meritorious, and I will give you a hundred cloth horses! As a compliment! Chang He has always been afraid that he would fall out of favor, but now he has been favored again, and immediately knelt down with Ma Zhou to thank him!
