Before noon, all the peaches in the back mountain were neatly thrown into the basket. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIt's not easy to open a piece of land in the mountains now, and peaches are not a rare commodity in Liangzhou, and almost everyone who is a little idle has planted a few peach trees, so that they can taste it in summer. Therefore, the Zhang family did not plant a few peach trees, and the four of them harvested them in one day.

When it was almost noon, Lu Jinshi found a small board car, beckoned Dorsey and Mo Sip to move up a basket of peaches, ready to pull them to the county seat for some spare money, and left some peaches in poor condition for his family to taste.

In previous years, the job of selling peaches in the county seat was also the business of Zhang Xi and Lu Jinshi, and it was enough to go back and forth for three or five days, and they could also bring some rare goods to Xiaohong and Xiaolu by the way. But this year, Zhang Xin knew that the dead beggar was going to follow, how could such a fun thing fall Zhang Wuye?

The three of them didn't eat lunch - in fact, Zhang Xin and Zhang Xi were really frightened of their sister-in-law's preaching skills, and insisted on rushing to the meal. I drove along the loess road in the countryside to Dingbian County.

Zhangcun is not far from the county seat, and the fast horse can be reached in one or two hours, and half a day is enough if you catch a car. But if you set off at noon, you can't catch up with the afternoon market, and the three of them are not in a hurry to leave, the three of them ate some dry food in the car, Zhang Xi sat on the wheel and shook the whip, Lu Jinshi Zhang Xi turned over a roll of bamboo slips in his hand next to him, and Zhang Xin was lazily lying in the middle of a pile of peaches.

Zhang Xin wanted to squint for a while, but the sun hanging high was really annoying, so he simply did it, first looked at the surrounding scenery, and then looked at the bamboo slips in Lu Jinshi's hand curiously, and he was not idle in his hands, so he took out three peaches from the basket and gave them to Lu Jinshi and Zhang Xi.

Lu Jinshi whispered a word of thanks, but Zhang Xi smiled, followed Zhang Xin's example, wiped the floating soil on the peach on his sleeve, and bit it when he opened his mouth.

"Jinshi...... What kind of book are you reading? Zhang Xin asked while biting on the peach.

"The Analects are political articles."

Zhang Xin scratched his head, although only a few classic sentences appeared in textbooks in later generations, he had heard that the political chapter of the Analects was about Mr. Confucius's concept of governing the country. I can't help but be a little curious, this scholar has been reduced to being a slave to himself, and he still reads this kind of book, is it useful? couldn't help but say as tactfully as possible: "That...... Jinshi, I'd like to ask...... This one...... What is the ...... for us now? Well...... What are the guiding implications? ”

Lu Jinshi smiled, although Zhang Xin usually looked at him in front of him and was always a little submissive, but when it came to reading, this down-and-out Jinshi was really a bit bookish, and he scolded Fang Xuan. "Fifth Master, you don't have to be taboo. This is really useless for us now. Speaking of this, Lu Jinshi paused, his eyes were a little confused, as if he had thought of something, "But...... People should always have some ideals...... It has nothing to do with what status you have now. ”

"Oh?" Zhang Xin couldn't help but be a little curious when he heard Lu Jinshi say such philosophical words, "This is ...... You said? ”

"No, my teacher said it." Speaking of this, Lu Jinshi was a little sad, "But...... He's dead. ”

Zhang Xin patted him lightly on the shoulder, "I'm sorry...... Condolences. ”

Lu Jinshi shook his head and said, "Fifth Master, it's okay." It's been a long time. ”

Zhang Xin felt that Lu Jinshi's teacher should be a great person, and people should have some dreams. But...... What are your dreams? I thought about it for a long time. Zhang Xin shook his head, maybe his dream is to guard Zhang Yi, Zhang Xi, a big family, and live this life happily...... Thinking of this, Zhang Xin looked at the bamboo slips full of seal scripts that made him dizzy, "That...... Jinshi, what is your dream? ”

"Dream ......" Lu Jinshi muttered, these two words evoked his memories again, as if he saw himself again when he was in the Golden Palace, and when he went to the horse and Zhangtai, it was a pity...... Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and now things are long gone, and even the capital of the Tang Dynasty has moved from Chang'an to Luoyang. "Ten years ago, I would probably think about governing the country and leveling the world, but now I ......" Lu Jinshi smiled bitterly, and his right hand unconsciously reached to his waist to touch the sachet tied to his waist, "I just want to tie my beloved girl's hair, and then be the fifth master's account for the rest of my life." ”

Zhang Xin still couldn't understand Lu Jinshi's complicated feelings, but when he saw Lu Jinshi's mottled hair at the age of thirty, he still sighed lightly, pulled out a peach leaf from the basket, rolled it up and puffed it to his lips, and in a moment a melodious song floated out of his mouth.

Listening to the melodious tune in front of him, Lu Jinshi couldn't help but think of the days when he was a child herding cattle and chopping wood in the countryside. Gradually, the master also fell in love with this aura child, and would always secretly teach him something after class every night, and occasionally take him home to read.

It took several years for Lu Jinshi to know that the master was a very great character, because when the holy decree came to restore the master that day, the county lord had to nod his head in the face of the master.

At this time, Zhang Xin's tune changed, although it was just a peach leaf, but it blew out a sonorous metallic feeling, Lu Jinshi also thought that when he was young, he wore a white dress and went to Beijing to take the exam, and vowed to take the most difficult Jinshi exam, but he really let himself be admitted...... It's the most brilliant and proud time in my life......

Zhang Xin's tune changed again, at this time the tune was bleak, there was an indescribable desolation and loneliness, Lu Jinshi also thought that in the autumn of that year, the Empress Wu wanted to kill Helan Minzhi, I don't know how many people in Chang'an City accompanied this young master to lose his head...... Like what...... The most respected master was pulled to the corner of the street and his head was cut off with a knife in that autumn...... Of course, the Empress Wu will not pay attention to this kind of small miscellaneous fish, and he will be sentenced to a thorn and a military charge. Fortunately, I was lucky and ran into Brother Zicheng...... I heard that many people who were distributed with me back then had the grass on their graves getting taller.

At this time, Zhang Xin had already finished blowing, and he clearly saw a smile on the corner of Lu Jinshi's mouth, but a cloudy tear flowed down the corner of his eye, over his cheeks, and on the ground.

"Five...... Fifth master, let you see a smile. Lu Jinshi wiped the corners of his eyes and said softly.

Zhang Xin walked past Lu Jinshi and patted him lightly on the back, "Don't call him the fifth master, call him Ashin...... Also, when these peaches are sold, I will invite you to drink. ”
