Chapter 531: Duplicity

If you have to say that March of the fourteenth year of the Great Cause is different from previous years, after carefully thinking about it and filtering it carefully, in addition to the turmoil in the world, then the only thing that can be said may be that it is clear that it has reached the time when the spring flowers are about to bloom, but a light snow is falling in the sky, the snow is not big, because the weather is already warm and people can't give up on the warm cotton clothes, so the snow star melts when it lands, and the snow is so small that it doesn't even make the road a little muddy.

The sensual poet looked at the snow that was dripping with the smell of rain and sighed that this was the tears of God's mercy, the tears shed for the emperor who was strangled on the second day of the second month of February. The person who said this stood on the edge of the Yellow River, wearing a Confucian shirt, looking like a poor scholar with no reputation, with a wine gourd hanging on his waist, looking up at the vast Yellow River, he untied the wine gourd and poured a big mouthful, smashed it, smashed it, and shouted loudly towards the Yellow River: "Your Majesty, go in peace, and there will be descendants to comment on the merits!" ”

He raised his head and drank most of the wine in the wine gourd, and continued to sigh: "Your Majesty opened the imperial examination, and the children of the poor family have the way to enter the office, and now that Your Majesty has died, where is the road of the children of the poor family?" ”

After saying this, the depressed scholar continued to drink, and drank a full gourd of wine in just a few sips.

"I know how many days I lived, and I chased away my name without a form. It's better to make more wine, and when you are leaning towards the bamboo forest. ”

He composed a poem as if he were singing, and when he had finished the verse, he smiled quite complacently, and when he looked down at the gourd he found it empty, his face immediately became annoyed. He stood on a big stone on the bank of the Yellow River, looking at the wine gourd and making a sad gesture of self-pity and self-pity, self-pity, because the wine was gone, but he was not yet enjoyable, and self-pity was because he was shy and had no money to buy wine.

"Just now you said that this spring snow and rain is God crying for Yang Guang's death?"

I don't know when, a young man dressed in a black brocade robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a black cloak appeared behind the scholar, this man was slender, handsome and hearty, and the most eye-catching thing was his bright eyes, as well as a long straight hair tied back at will.

The scholar didn't notice that there was someone around him, and he was startled when he heard someone talking.

He turned around suddenly, and saw that the man behind him was extraordinary and dressed in brocade, knowing that he was a person with status, but he didn't dare to scold it directly.

"Spring Snow Turns to Rain"

He smashed it and smashed his mouth, and suddenly felt that these four words were good.

"This word is used well, that's right, just now I used the rain to weep and pity the emperor, why, do you think what I said is wrong?"

"Nope"

The handsome man in black brocade smiled and said: "I'm just a little curious, Yang Guang was strangled to death by Yu Wenhua in Jiangdu on the second day of the second month of February, why did God remember to shed a few tears and cry in early March?" The emotional change on this day is too slow, it is better to cry after May, then the crying will be much sadder than today. ”

"Why is that?"

The scholar was puzzled.

The handsome man smiled and said, "After May, it will be summer, and there will always be more rain." ”

"Boring!"

The scholar turned around and wanted to leave, and suddenly caught a glimpse of two handsome girls standing behind the man. Strangely, the two women were wearing black suits, one with a large black umbrella tied to his back, and a long wooden box in his arms. The other had a large iron spear tied to his back, and a long black sheath straight knife in his arms.

"Strange, weird."

He muttered a few words, and when he turned around, he saw the wine bag on the waist of the man in brocade, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"This ...... Checkmate. ”

The scholar thought for a while and decided to use the word general: "You have wine at your waist?" ”

The handsome man smiled, untied the wine bag and handed it to him, "I can give you the wine, but can you tell me the name of the gentleman?" Also, just now Mr. said that Yang Guang opened the imperial examination, and the children of the poor family have a way to enter the office, Yang Guang is dead, and the road of the children of the poor family is broken, do you think that the king who will dominate the world in the future must be inferior to Yang Guang? ”

"You give me the wine, and I will say whatever you tell me."

The scholar was a little anxious and said: "My name is Wang Ji, just a down-and-out farmer who is addicted to alcohol. Wine tasting is okay, where do you know what to enter the official and what is an official, besides, although Yang Guang is mediocre, but there are still merits, and now there are few so-called heroes who are fighting for the world and can match him, if he is not confused, he can't say that he is really an emperor through the ages. ”

The handsome man handed him the wine, and the scholar couldn't wait to pull off the lid and take a sip, and then his eyes lit up: "Good wine!" That's really good wine! ”

"Excuse me, you just said that the heroes in the world are not as good as Yang Guang, what is the reason?"

The scholar was addicted to the aroma of wine, thought about it and replied seriously: "It's not all inferior, in my opinion, all the heroes in the world can be said to be stronger than Yang Guang, nothing more than Sanli." ”

"San Li?"

"Li Yuan, Li Mi, Li Xian."

Scholar Dao.

"Which of these three people is better or worse?"

The handsome man asked again.

Wang Ji said while tasting wine: "Li Yuan, Li Mi are all from wealthy families, especially Li Yuan, a prince of the whole family, he has the power, and what he has is the power of the world's family." The people of the family think that they are all koi in the pond, and the people of the poor family are ugly loaches in their eyes, such as Dou Jiande, Du Fuwei and others are all from poor families, although they are now powerful, but the people of the family still look down on them. Li Mi is also from a wealthy family, and he has been famous since he was a child, and this person can gain power, which is nothing more than relying on the folk songs of peach and plum to bewitch a group of mountain villagers. Li Yuan has already proclaimed himself emperor in Chang'an, and the folk song of peach and plum fell on Li Yuan, and it has nothing to do with Li Mi, and his good life will not last long. ”

"As for Li Xian...... I am a poor and sour literati who often has no money to buy wine and drink from a poor family, and Li Xian is also from a poor family, although I don't think he can achieve any big things, but I still like him. ”

The handsome man smiled and asked, "You mean, the children of the poor family can't fight the big family after all?" ”

"Do you need to ask?"

Wang Ji asked rhetorically.

"You follow me from today onwards, I'll drink you, and then you and I make a bet that if one day a man from a poor family wins the big family, then I will win. If I lose, then I will pay for the drinks for the rest of your life, how about it? ”

Wang Ji asked with some vigilance: "Then what if I lose." ”

The handsome man raised his head and smiled, his eyes widened: "I heard your poems just now, there are some literary talents, if I win, I will have to raise a few people who sing praises of merit." ”

……

……

Dongping County has Daze, the name Juye, there is a high mountain on the bank of Juyeze, the name Liang Mountain.

The main village of Yanyun Village is on Liang Mountain, now Yanyun Village has a huge scale that makes people can't help but be staggered, the city wall built up according to the mountain is worthy of the majestic four words, and the pavilions and pavilions in the cottage are complete, the people in the village are more and more, the majestic city wall is the orderly dwelling, along the mountain to see down is the endless water village, here seems to have become a male city.

From the water village along the hillside all the way up, there is a stone step path, to the end of the road will find a piece of building, not tall and majestic, wooden house wooden wall, the most eye-catching is just a three-story wooden building, and if you pass through the wooden building to the back garden will suddenly open up, this back actually opens out a large piece of flat land, flat land is a wooden house on all sides, not high but spacious and bright, the deepest part of the square is a hall in the center, covers a huge area, enough to accommodate 500 people.

At the main entrance of the three-story wooden building, a huge plaque is hung, on which two large characters are gilded.

Yanyun

And there is also a plaque hanging on the main entrance of the hall in the square behind the wooden building, with three big characters in gilding.

Martial Arts Academy

This year is the third year of the Performing Arts Academy and the second year of the completion of the new site. In the past, when the scale of the Yanwu Academy was still small, it taught in the meeting hall of Yanyun Water Village, but as the strength of Yanyun Village became stronger and stronger, more and more students were selected from the army in each session, from the initial 100 people to 300 people this year. There are no too strict requirements for those who enter the martial arts academy, as long as the soldiers have accumulated military merits, they can obtain the qualification for the entrance examination, and the instructors will be selected for admission after the assessment. Whether you come from a poor family or a family.

It can be said that the Martial Arts Academy is a sacred place in the hearts of all young soldiers.

Because after studying in the Martial Arts Academy, the person with the best grades will be directly promoted to the captain of the sixth rank, and if it is good enough to make the dean tempted, then it is possible to be directly promoted to another general from the fifth rank. You must know that the captain of the sixth rank is an official position that may be difficult to achieve after accumulating five years of military merit and ensuring immortality, and if the general from the fifth rank is promoted according to military merits, most people will not think about it for the rest of their lives.

And as long as you enter the martial arts theater, anything can happen.

What the students of the Performing Arts Academy talked about the most was that the dean Daxi Changru was once the first chief of the Great Sui, who created a brilliant record of killing 10,000 enemies in three days with 2,000 elite horsemen and 400,000 Turkic wolf horsemen, and forcing them back. There is also the outstanding students who graduated in the first two years of the Yanwu Academy have already made achievements, the most outstanding of which is General Wu Yunzhao in the first year of the Yanwu Academy, and in the second year, it is his brother General Wu Tianxi. One year, both of them were promoted to the rank of Sanpin General in just one year, and this kind of speed is simply a myth in the Great Sui Imperial Court.

This year's Performing Arts Academy has just finished recruiting cadets, with a total of 300 people, and they are a group of extremely talented and enthusiastic young people, and there is no doubt that they will be the fresh blood to supplement the officers at the rank of lieutenant general and colonel.

And today, the three hundred students stood neatly in the square wearing uniform cyan uniforms, and everyone's face was full of excitement.

There is no other reason, since the establishment of the Yanwu Academy, Yan Wang, the honorary dean, has never come to the Yanwu Academy, but today, he is coming.

The gray-haired Yanwu Academy's courtyard Daxi Changru, vice president Zhang Zhongjian, and a group of faculty members were all present, and standing in the crowd of people wearing black faculty clothes, the most conspicuous thing was a petite and graceful girl, looking at her age of fifteen or sixteen years old, but wearing a teacher's black robe, coupled with a delicate and lovely face, standing in the crowd looked particularly eye-catching. And those students in green shirts glanced at her from time to time, and their eyes were full of enthusiastic admiration.

But her eyes kept staring at the outside of the mountain gate, more enthusiastic than the eyes of those students.

She pursed her lips, perhaps because she was too excited and excited, so her face was a little red, like a pink peach blossom in the early green mountains and forests in March.

Brother Anzhi, you're finally back.

She looked out on tiptoe, expectant.

The bearded Zhang Zhongjian glanced back at her, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Anxious? ”

The girl shook her head, blushed and said, "No hurry. ”

Zhang Zhongjian pursed his lips and muttered four words: "Duplicity." ”
