After returning from the Zhang family, Liu Bei's mood was a little melancholy, the environment was always affecting people, and Liu Bei, who had lived in a peaceful era that was easy to breed Our Lady for nearly 30 years, was not an indifferent and ruthless person.

Liu Bei discovered a reality that he ignored: that is, the people of this era are not just the stereotypical words in the books he had read in his previous life, each of them has their own joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and has a past that is unknown to others.

Liu Bei somewhat understood why Zhang Fei's powerful young man had such a strange and irritable temper, he had no mother since he was a child, and his father was also-

Liu Bei thought of Zhang Fei's father, the fierce man named Zhang Hu, he probably liked his deceased wife very much, it can be seen from the fact that he has not married all these years, this is really a rare thing in this feudal society, but this makes Zhang Fei bitter.

A man has always had a rather peculiar affection for the woman he really loves, and if he dies young, and leaves a son, if this son is a girl, he will love her with all his might, for she will always remind him of his dead wife; If this son is a boy, although he will never be wronged in terms of living expenses, etc., he will be somewhat unpleasantly cold, because he will always remind himself of his deceased wife - well, this is probably a kind of alternative sexism.

On the day of the Qingming Festival, Liu Bei's family took a carriage back to Lousang Pavilion to sweep the tomb of the old man Liu Xiong.

Lou Sang Pavilion is a small place, and small places often can't hide any secrets, not to mention that there are people who come to the door to pretend to show off humbly?

Not long after Liu Hong divided the field, the neighbors of Lou Sangting Township, who gave Liu Hong tenant land, took advantage of the last bit of leisure before the cultivation to "return to their hometown".

Looking at those guys who were lucky enough to be Liu Hong's tenant farmers, they talked boastfully in and outside the pavilion, and from time to time took out the bamboo slips that Liu Hong distributed to them, "seemingly inadvertently" emphasizing the "twenty taxes and one" field rent.

The rest of the Lou Sangting fathers and elders began to regret it, why didn't they go last time? Why did you let that Liu XX take this shit luck? Hmph, what kind of thing is Liu XX!

As a result, the atmosphere in the pavilion is becoming more and more discordant day by day, especially the frequency of the small couple who had different opinions last time also increased day by day.

Fortunately, at this time, Liu Hong came back and saved the people of Lousangting River. Then something frightened Liu Hong's family happened: the neighbors who came to visit one after another, in an endless stream; Help with cleaning, help with cooking, every day; Even when Liu Hong's family swept the grave of Liu Xiong and Old Man Liu, there were even kowtows with him.

Liu Hong had to be appeased for this reason, and wrote an unknown number of empty checks, and in this regard, when Liu Hong's family left Lou Sangting, there were still many fathers and elders carrying local specialties "sent off on the long street".

At the beginning of this scene, Liu Bei wanted to laugh, and sighed quite petty bourgeoisie about the inferior nature of the small people, and jokingly criticized accordingly.

Because among them, Liu Bei has seen more than once that someone has reported to his father, telling about the various bad deeds of a certain neighbor in Lou Sangting to Liu Hong's tenant farmers, and recommended himself.

However, after seeing more, Liu Bei felt a burst of sadness, "being honest and knowing etiquette, knowing honor and disgrace with enough food and clothing", and the difficulty of making a living, it is easy to stimulate people's selfish side, noble virtue is valuable to a gentleman: but for the small people who are difficult to audit, what is the benefit?

After all, the era that Liu Bei came to was not the peaceful and prosperous era of the feudal era like Wenjing and Zhenguan, but the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the chaos was coming.

"The building is going to fall." Liu Bei said in a low voice, he felt that time was so tight for the first time.

It was already afternoon when he returned to Zhuoxian, and after a night's rest, the next day, Liu Bei collected a pile of bamboo slips from his room and put them in a burlap bag.

Liu Bei put the bag on his back and tried it, it was quite heavy, and then Liu Bei carefully avoided the sight of everyone in the family, and went out to the teacher Lu Zhi's house.

"Knock knock."

After three knocks on the door, Fu Bo opened the door, saw Liu Bei stunned, and said hesitantly: "Xuande, today is not the time for the start of the county school, are you mistaken?" Let's go back. ”

Liu Bei shook his head: "Fu Bo, I know that school hasn't started yet, and I came to the teacher for some private matters." ”

"Private?" Fu Bo smiled disappreliantly, but still let go of his body, and said to Liu Bei: "Okay, you can go in, the lord is now reading in the study in the back garden." ”

Liu Bei saluted and said, "Thank you, Fubo, then Xuande will go." ”

Fauber nodded and smiled, "Go ahead." ”

After coming to the study, Liu Bei knocked on the door first, and then waited outside the door.

After a while, a deep and steady voice came from the study: "Come in." ”

Liu Bei gently pushed the door and entered.

"Xuande, it's you." Lu Zhi saw that it was Liu Bei, and said with some surprise.

"It's the disciple."

"Qingming Xiumu is not over yet, let's say, why did you come to me?" Lu Zhi put together the bamboo slips and said with a smile.

Liu Bei looked at Lu Zhi and said, "It was the student who wrote an article, and I want to ask the teacher to see the fallacies for the disciple, and the axe is correct." ”

"Oh."

Lu Zhi suddenly became interested, and noticed the burlap bag behind Liu Bei, and asked, "What is written in the sack behind you?" ”

Liu Bei said while taking out the bamboo slips from the sackcloth bag: "Returning to the teacher, it is a text of children's enlightenment, which was made by the disciple when he recited the "Urgent Chapter". ”

"The text of children's enlightenment?" Lu Zhi frowned, he thought that Liu Bei was just a vassal and elegantly wrote a rhetoric.

Although the text of children's enlightenment is written for children, it is also within the scope of the scriptures and meanings, and contains the principles of sages and sages, which cannot be written by ordinary people.

For example, today's enlightenment textbooks, "Cangjie Chapter" is written by Li Si, "Erudite Chapter" is written by Hu Wujing, Sima Xiangru is the author of "Fan Jiang Chapter", and Shi You is "Urgent Chapter", which one of them is not a well-known erudite and talented person at that time, how old is Liu Bei? How long does it take to study in earnest? How dare you be so ambitious?

Thinking of this, Lu Zhi wanted to scold Liu Bei, but before the words came out, Liu Bei had already respectfully presented the bamboo slip in front of him.

Let's see what this kid writes, and then it's not too late to reprimand him.

Lu Zhi took the bamboo slip and glanced down from top to bottom, and the three words "hundred family names" came into view.

"It's well written." Lu Zhi nodded.

Liu Bei laughed, joking, he had practiced in his previous life, and this word was the result of Liu Bei's deliberate convergence, he planned to wait a few more years to officially launch the so-called "Liu Ti Zi" to win some fame - well, which famous font should be imitated in later generations when the time comes? It's kind of annoying to think about.

Lu Zhi didn't know the messy thoughts in Liu Bei's heart at the moment, and after casually praising his disciple, Lu Zhi began to read the contents of the bamboo slip lightly:

"Liu Lu, Sun Li, Zhou Wu Zheng Wang. Feng Chen, Chuwei, Jiang Shen, Han Yang......"

In this era, if you want to really make a difference, you must be an official, and if you want to be an official and a big official, you must either have a strong background or a big reputation.

BackgroundLiu Bei didn't dare to count on it, although his situation in this life was more than twice as good as that of the hard-pressed Liu Bei in history, but it was really stupid to pin his hopes on others.

Then only fame remains, and for Liu Bei, if you want to gain fame, is there a simpler way than being a copyist?

However, this is not a simple matter, Liu Bei can not choose as many articles as he imagined.

As mentioned earlier, "the Han family emphasizes the righteousness of the scriptures and despises the resignation", so Tang poetry and Song poetry are completely incomprehensible in this era, after all, the popular cultural carriers in different eras are completely different, for example, if Liu Bei comes to the quintessence of later generations - Peking Opera at this time, Lu Zhi has to expel him from the division.

And Liu Bei is just a ten-year-old child after all, and he can't and dare not copy too esoteric articles.

First, some things always have to have a cyclical and gradual process, so as to avoid the ending of "the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it".

Second, even if Liu Bei copied it, no one would think that he wrote it, but would only think that Liu Hong and Lu Zhi used the mouth of a child to slander the court.

And "Three Character Classic" is the article that Liu Bei decided to plagiarize after careful consideration, because this thing really doesn't have much technical content at all, and it is completely creative, as long as the names are listed one by one and arranged according to the rhyme.

In this way, even if others heard that it was written by a child, they would not be too surprised.

After reading a book briefly, Lu Zhi stopped and looked at Liu Bei and sighed, "You are very slippery." ”

Liu Bei arched his hand and said humbly: "It's the teacher who teaches well." ”

"Humph! Leave the book and I'll show you, and if there are no problems, I'll pass it on to your teachers and uncles and ask for their opinions. ”

"Then the student thanked the teacher first." Liu Bei was secretly happy in his heart, this matter was done, but his plan was not over yet.

"Teacher, the disciple has one more thing to ask for."

"What?"

"The disciple has recently been obsessed with arithmetic, and I heard that the teacher has the book "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" here, and he wants to borrow it and copy it for study."

Lu Zhi got up, came to the bookshelf, searched for a while, took out several rolls of bamboo slips, and handed them to Liu Bei,

Then he waved his hand to chase away flies, "That's it, but you remember, the way of arithmetic is just a small road after all, and it can't be compared to the grand avenue like Jingyi, so don't indulge too deeply." ”

Liu Bei nodded seriously, bowed solemnly, and turned to leave.

But when he reached the door, there was another sigh behind him:

"Don't mess with your heart."

Liu Bei turned around, saluted again, and said, "The disciple is awake, and he will not forget the teacher's teachings." "Then I went out.
