Long before coming to Linzi, Mingyue had heard of the reputation of a novelist. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info This novelist is one of the hundred sons of the people, from the Zhou Dynasty barnyard officials, that is, the small officials who help the government collect words in the streets and alleys, they listen to the conversations of the people, and compile stories to record the customs of the four directions.

Seeing that Chang Anjun was so polite, Ji Boyi and Ji Shuqi were a little embarrassed, and said with some shame: "Street talk, hearsay, can't enter the stream, and don't dare to call everyone ......."

It turns out that although this novelist is a family of his own, but the inheritance is very messy, compared to Mozi, Mencius and others often thousands of hundreds of students, at most one person accepts three or two apprentices, and walks in the streets and alleys in a car on weekdays, recording some legends and strange tales, the words of the ancients, compiling stories that they think are interesting, and then saying them in vivid language, dedicated to Dr. Feng Junqing, if they like it, they can mix into a guest house.

But if you are unlucky and no one appreciates you, the novelist can only tell stories on the streets, please the onlookers, and ask for some money, a bit like the storyteller of later generations.

Because of this, novelists have always been regarded as non-mainstream scholars such as Confucianism and Mo, and they do not even have a place in the Jixia School Palace. Since the death of the master, the two brothers have been telling stories in Zhuangyue City on weekdays to ask for a living, and they are no different from the dwarf performers who advocate excellence......

Chang Anjun didn't treat them as villains, but asked them kindly what "novels" they usually have.

Brother Ji Boyi said: "The master passed on our "Yiyin Said" and "Yellow Emperor Said" ......"

Although it sounds like a very lofty name, when I heard them speak, Mingyue realized that they are all works of Tuogu, and in terms of ideology, they are far inferior to the classics of Confucianism, Mo, and Taoism.

The younger brother Ji Shuqi has a slightly different specialization, and he is good at telling some foolish stories...... From his mouth, Mingyue heard many fables that were familiar to later generations, such as buying and returning pearls, worrying about the sky, painting snakes and adding feet, Zheng people buying shoes, pulling seedlings to grow, waiting for rabbits, Handan toddlers, covering ears and stealing bells, etc......

It turns out that the small stories in these hundreds of works of Zhuzi are from the hands of novelists?

Mingyue suddenly became interested and asked the two brothers to perform, these fables are usually told with a question and answer story, and with their funny expressions, it is indeed quite interesting.

In total, this novelist can best represent the customs of the civilian society of the Warring States, but because the scholars and doctors in the world regard it as a small way and do not attach importance to it, it eventually became extinct, but there are still their shadows in the story of Han Yuefu.

When she knew them well, Mingyue also clarified her intentions.

"Would you two like to enter my mansion and be my doorman?"

Seeing the two brothers looking at each other, Mingyue emphasized: "If the two of you can do things for me, you can be the kind of guest who eats fish, travels with a car, and has a house!" ”

Uncle Ji was pleasantly surprised and was about to agree, but Ji Boyi hesitated a little and stopped his younger brother and said: "Childe, the villain brother has no outstanding skills, neither can he lobby the king for the son, nor can he fight with a sword, why should he be treated as a guest?" ”

Mingyue laughed: "What I want is for you to be able to speak good ways, as well as to be familiar with the streets and alleys of Linzi." I have some stories that I want you to tell and listen to the people of Linzi......"

……

On the eighth day of the seventh month, the seventh day after Chang'anjun's assassination.

In the Linzi court and the circle of scholars, because the ram faction suddenly jumped out and shouted "revenge", the main battle gradually overwhelmed the peace faction and gained the upper hand. And the people, who were originally indifferent to the government and politics, were also inflamed by the spread of some stories in the market.

"Less Rehabilitation of the Country", "Zhao's Orphan", "Fu Cha Po Yue", "Gou Jian Destroys Wu", a story related to national hatred and family hatred suddenly became popular in Linzi City, Ji Boyi, Ji Shuqi two novelists began to tell these deeds in various places, they did not stop, within a few days, outside the Jimen, between Zhuang Yue, next to the racecourse, there are their figures, each time can be by sounding the gong, attracting a large number of people to watch.

At first, Qi people were just watching the excitement, but gradually, their emotions were drawn by the stories of these two novelists, and they began to rejoice and grieve.

Speaking of Taikang Tian not returning for a hundred days and losing the country, the Qi people hated and stamped their feet, and said that Shaokang was able to be sheltered by the Yu clan, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and when it came to his defeat of the brutal Han Xun and the restoration of the Xia Hou clan, the Qi people clapped their hands and said that they were happy......

And next, the two stories of "Fu Cha Po Yue" and "Gou Jian Destroying Wu" cleverly compared the Wu Yue of the past to Qi Yan of today, which aroused greater resonance among the Qi people.

In the end, the two also left "Wu does not die the more, the more Wu dies; Qi does not die Yan, Yan is so broken Qi. Qi broke in Yan, Wu died in Yue, this disease is not exhausted and ......", this ingenious metaphor for the past and the present, triggered the deep thinking of people of insight in Qi.

A scholar who knew something about the court stood up and said: "Today, the Yan Kingdom jumped off the beam and cut down the northern border of Zhao, this Cheng Qi State defeated the Yan State and took revenge on the country!" ”

The tyranny of King Yan Hui and the cavalry robbery in the Qi country, only fifteen or sixteen years have passed, the Qi people still remember it vividly, even if they are young people, they have heard their parents talk about that difficult time, and they are immediately filled with righteous indignation.

Public opinion began to ferment, and as the story of the two novelists spread more and more, more and more scholars, rangers, good families, and evil boys flocked to Yongmen from all directions from Linzi to ask for war.

When Housheng heard the news, he stood on the Yongmen city wall and couldn't help but gasp.

But I saw thousands of people sitting in black below, all wearing black and white mourning clothes, sitting quietly outside the palace gate!

When Hou Sheng tried to calm down and asked them why they were gathering here, those Qi people suddenly said, "Please King Fa Yan!" Revenge and hatred! We are willing to join the army as a soldier of skill! ”

After Hou Sheng hurriedly spread the situation outside to the palace, King Qi trembled with anger.

"It's the other way around, it's the other way around! Do they want to use the public opinion of the people to blackmail the widow to decide the major affairs of the military state? ”

He was going to ask Kuang Liang to take the guards to expel those Diao people who "discussed state affairs in vain", but the doctor Diao Bo hurriedly dissuaded him, saying that the mouth of the people was more important than the defense of Sichuan. This public opinion is like controlling water, but it cannot be blocked......

"How do you channel that?" King Qi has lost his position.

Sun Jia, the king of Qi, persuaded the king of Qi: "King, now that the people's hearts are available, it is better to approve the request of his generation and send troops to cooperate with the Zhao State to crusade against the Yan State, so that the public opinion can be smoothed, and the northern land occupied by the Yan State can also be recovered......"

"You, you also want to fight!?" King Qi was furious.

"If that's the case, then the happiest person is Zhao Ren!" Qi Wangtian Fazhang can see clearly, although he doesn't know who the source of public opinion is in this proposition, but once Qi State is involved, the biggest beneficiary is undoubtedly Zhao State.

But the situation is like this, and King Qi is a little difficult to ride a tiger.

At this moment, there was a report from a messenger that Pingyuan Jun had come to Qi again with the letters of King Zhao and the Queen Mother, and now he had passed the Tang Dynasty and entered the Qi realm!

King Qi immediately understood that he couldn't drag it on, and the time for a showdown between himself and Zhao Guo had come!
