Chapter 224: The Brocade Box

I have a long-cherished wish for drinking, and I help you see your delicate face; The first level of choosing a son-in-law, screening the pieces in the box!

"Yin and Yang Family? What for? Zhang Liang is very unfamiliar with the profession he wants to play.

Among the hundreds of schools of thought, there are Confucianism, Taoism, Legalism, Moism, etc., and Zhang Liang has heard or understood all of these doctrines. But only this yin and yang family, he doesn't even know what to do, let alone what other people's thoughts and doctrines are.

As soon as Chen Ping saw that Zhang Liang had not been involved in the Yin and Yang family, he immediately persuaded him to change one. But Zhang Liang became interested in the Yin and Yang family. "Does this Yin and Yang family know a lot of people?"

Seeing that Zhang Liang was really interested in the Yin and Yang family, Chen Ping had to explain it for him: "The representative of the Yin and Yang family, Zou Yan, is a native of Qi, and the yin and yang science he expounded is to combine the mathematical ideas since ancient times with the theory of the five elements of yin and yang, and explain the law of change of all things in heaven and earth. It even includes changes in the situation, changes in dynasties, and so on. There are not many people who dabble in this kind of doctrine, and it can be said that they are rare. It is precisely because of this that I want you to sneak in with this identity, but I don't want Zhang Situ to have never even heard of it, I think it's better to change your identity! β€œ

Hearing that Chen Ping was going to change his identity, Zhang Liang casually obstructed: "Don't change, that's it!" It is better if there are fewer people who know. I haven't heard of it, but no one else understands it! I won't say, but I'll blow! Guaranteed to stun them! β€œ

Chen Ping heard Zhang Liang's words, so he could only shake his head and smile bitterly. Seeing that he had already recognized this identity, he had no choice but to agree. "Since Zhang Situ insists on using this identity as a cover-up, then you can go back to the house with me. I'll find some books on the theory of yin and yang for you, at least have an understanding. ”

As soon as he heard the book, Zhang Liang immediately had a headache. But it was inconvenient to tell others that he didn't know Xiao Seal, so he had to agree first.

When it was time to leave, Zhang Liang told Bai Yuan and Li Wen what they had to do. It also includes meeting Fan Zeng to see what the other party will do and how to contact him. After all the arrangements were ready, Zhang Liang followed Chen Ping to the mansion.

As soon as he entered the mansion, Chen Ping ordered someone to prepare a room for Zhang Liang and a banquet. It looks like he wants to have a drink with Zhang Liang. After arranging for Zhang Liang to enter the back hall, Chen Ping went to the study by himself.

When he was young, when the next person served the wine and meat, Chen Ping also came back with two books. "Zhang Situ, these two Janes are two of the "Five Virtues Always". It can be said that the thought of the five elements of yin and yang combines many academic ideas such as Confucianism, Taoism, and Mo. And even LΓΌ Buwei's "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn" in the past was deeply influenced by it. You might as well take a look at it, you can have a basic understanding of yin and yang. β€œ

As soon as he saw Chen Ping bring the book and let himself have a basic understanding, Zhang Liang said bitterly in his heart: Basic understanding? It knows me, I don't! Don't talk about the base (chicken) book, the duck book is not good.

Chen Ping handed the book to Zhang Liang, but saw that the other party did not accept the book, and it seemed to be difficult. Then he asked: "Is Zhang Situ too troublesome?" Or do you think it's too late even now? ”

Zhang Liang was worried about how to speak, but when he heard that the other party took the initiative to relieve himself, he hurriedly echoed: "Brother Chen, listen to what you said, this yin and yang theory is indeed good. But as you said, this temporary reading is not helpful in the end. Why don't you tell me what you know about the theory of yin and yang? A superficial understanding is sufficient, at least it can bluff people. What do you think? ”

Hearing Zhang Liang's words, Chen Ping nodded slightly. "It's okay, then according to what Zhang Situ said. Let's have a drink today, which is also my long-cherished wish. Starting tomorrow, you can register for the son-in-law selection meeting for three consecutive days. I'm sure I'll make sure you're comfortable with it before the conference. ”

Chen Ping's words were like a reassuring pill. Zhang Liang felt a little at ease. After Chen Ping put away the bamboo slips, he ordered his subordinates to step back, sit opposite Zhang Xian, and began to drink and talk.

"Zhang Situ, I'll give you a glass first. If you hadn't rescued me that day, I wouldn't be where I am today. Come, please fill this cup. ”

When Zhang Liang saw Chen Ping toasting, he hurriedly drank it with the other party. "Don't say anything more to save each other, my life-saving grace that time, your brother Chen has already repaid it a thousand times over, it should be me who thank you like you. Come, I'll toast you. ”

Chen Ping disagreed with Zhang Liang's words, but Zhang Liang had already drunk it by himself, so he had to accompany him. "Zhang Situ, you are serious. Helping you here is not only for the sake of saving your life, but also because of your admiration. Besides, even if I save you a hundred times, it is also your own blessing, if you don't save me, how can I save you now. ”

The two of them drank as many as ten cups to save each other, but the dishes did not move much. At this time, both of them were a little drunk, and Zhang Liang wanted to inquire about Yu Xi and Qingmin when they were still sober.

"Brother Chen, can you tell me about Yu Xi and Qingmin's current situation? How are they doing? ”

As soon as Chen Ping saw Zhang Liang inquire about the current situation of the second daughter, he poured a drink alone, and then said slowly: "You already know the recent situation of Miss Qingmin. Before she became Fan Ya's father and daughter, she had always been with Miss Yu Xi. The overlord built a separate palace for the two of them, and often sent them delicacies and treasures. Because I often go there to deliver goods on behalf of the Overlord, I can meet them. In my opinion, no matter what kind of treasures they saw, they were not moved, but when I told them about you Zhang Situ, their faces were full of joy. I, Chen Ping, sometimes really want to sacrifice my life to rescue them, but after all, I still can't give up this skin. Fortunately, the overlord always wanted to really win the heart of Miss Yu Xi, so he never forced her to marry. But the overlord seems to want to compete with you, so as to make Miss Yu Xi fall in love with him. But in my opinion, it's difficult! ”

After listening to Chen Ping's story, Zhang Liang couldn't wait to visit the two of them now. But in the end, I was forced by the situation, so I could only put this idea in my heart.

Chen Ping seemed to see what Zhang Liang was thinking, and after a few deep thoughts, he finally made up his mind and said, "Tomorrow evening, I will send seasonal fresh fruits to Miss Yu Xi's palace." You will disguise yourself as a transporter when you arrive. I'll let you two meet, and as for Harumin, there's really nothing I can do, but if you can stand out from the crowd, you'll meet her! ”

Hearing that Chen Ping wanted to help him meet Yu Xi, Zhang Liang hated to give the other party a hundred kowtows. He knew how much risk Chen Ping was going to take, and what the consequences would be if he was discovered. Originally, Chen Ping could have stayed out of the matter, but he helped himself so much, which made Zhang Liang's gratitude beyond words. Eventually, he put all his words in the wine, and the two of them drank until they were drunk and unconscious in the middle of the night.

Early the next morning, when Zhang Liang was still suffering from a hangover headache, a subordinate from Chen Ping's mansion had already come to his room. The other party is the person who is good at disguise as mentioned yesterday, and after explaining his intentions, Zhang Liang hurriedly freshened up and cooperated with the other party in disguise.

Two hours later, when Zhang Liang observed his appearance with the bronze mirror again, he was completely unrecognizable. At this time, his appearance is very ordinary and ordinary, and he will not leave too much impression on others at all. This is very much in line with Zhang Liang's mind, only in this way will it not attract the attention of others!

When Chen Ping came to look for Zhang Liang, he didn't recognize the other party. He is also very satisfied with the results of his subordinates' work!

"Good! In this way, Zhang Situ can go to the recruitment conference. I have already sent someone to investigate, and the place where I signed up was Fan Zeng's house, and the time of registration was the first round of selection. The specific content is not yet known, and it can only be up to Zhang Situ yourself. ”

After listening to Chen Ping's words, Zhang Liang seemed full of confidence. "Don't worry, it's hard for me. Have the ability to let the old immortal out of the Olympiad math questions, see who admits it! ”

Chen Ping didn't know what the Olympiad was, but when he saw that Zhang Liang was extremely confident, he was relieved. After breakfast, he gave Zhang Liang a short lecture on the doctrine of yin and yang. When it was close to noon, he asked the other party to take the exam, and he went to arrange a meeting in the evening.

After Zhang Liang left Chen Ping's Mansion through the back door, he came to Fan Zeng's Mansion after several inquiries. When I arrived, I saw that the door was full of people, and there were more people in and out than drizzle. As soon as he entered the house, someone stepped forward to guide him. When the guide came to the back of a long line, he saw many people walking out of a room with their heads down. Obviously, they were all people who failed the exam.

After some waiting, Zhang Liang was finally able to enter the house, and at this time there was already a long queue behind him.

Upon entering the room, Zhang Liang found that only one of his test takers was allowed to stay inside, apparently to prevent someone from plagiarizing the answers. Suddenly, a question came to him, and that was the written test! This can be said to be his fatal flaw!

Just when Zhang Liang secretly prayed that there was no written test, he saw an old man step forward and bow to him. When Zhang Liang saw it, he hurriedly returned the salute respectfully. After the two sides saluted, they said to the convenience: "The son came to participate in this son-in-law selection conference, thinking that he is very confident in his talents. As long as you can answer Fan Yafu's questions, you will naturally pass the first round of selection. The subject is the same, so only one person can be in the room at a time. Not only for the sake of fairness, but also for the sake of your face. If Childe wants to leave at this time, it's still too late. ”

When Zhang Liang heard that Fan Zeng personally made the question, he suddenly scolded in his heart: The old immortal made the question by himself, it seems that he wants to use my sensitivity to pick a person who can assist Xiang Yu. Since he is here, Lao Tzu will definitely snatch back his daughter-in-law! We will not let you succeed!

Seeing that Zhang Liang was silent, the old man thought he was hesitating, and casually asked, "Childe, how do you choose?" ”

Seeing that the other party inquired about his decision, Zhang Liang immediately smiled and said, "Then please ask Fan Yafu to solve the question on behalf of Fan Yafu!" ”

Seeing that Zhang Liang seemed to be very confident, the other party immediately ordered someone to step forward, and when Zhang Liang saw the person in front of him clearly, he found that it was two sergeants who were dressed the same and holding two identical brocade boxes at the same time. The two of them stood a foot close to Zhang Liang, and then there were no more words or expressions.

Zhang Liang was wondering what the exam question was, but the old man said at this time: "Among the two brocade boxes, only one has a token for the next round of exams, please pick out the right one without touching the brocade box, if you fail, please go back!" (To be continued.) )
