460 Tang Xuanzong clearly concluded that Li Bai and Zhang Jiuling's secrets were lost
As mentioned last time, at the banquet, He Zhizhang still praised Li Bai's "Shu Dao Difficulty" high mountains and flowing waters, and said that Li Bai was an immortal and a Tai Bai star. Li Bai was excited to meet his bosom friend, and said that he would take the immortal as his name in the future. Liang Wenzhen said that in his overseas countryside, "Silent Night Thoughts" is so catchy that even a three-year-old child can recite it. He Zhizhang expressed doubts, and Liang Wenzhen explained that the Ministry of Education required the compilation of textbooks, so this was the case. Li Bai cited the overseas Ministry of Education as a bosom friend. He Zhizhang asked about Li Bai's education and family situation, and examined the character of others at the banquet, which is not unique to modern people. Li Bai had previously presented "The Great Hunting Fu" to Tang Xuanzong, but because his behavior was not bright enough, he did not tell the truth. Liang Wenzhen was surprised to learn that Zhang Jiuling was serving in the court, and said that Zhang Jiuling was a famous minister through the ages, and he had to make a mistake when he had to go to his house, and he would become a famous fortune teller. He Zhizhang felt that the matter was very important, and reported to the emperor early tomorrow morning, because talents are rare and cannot be wasted. At the time of checkout, He Zhizhang did not bring enough silver taels, and used the royal golden turtle to offset the account, and Li Bailiang Wenzhen rushed to pay the bill. The exchange of golden turtles for fine wine is a good story in the literary world, and Liang Wenzhen was fortunate to meet.
"Old He, Immortal, the two of you go first, I still have to find an inn to settle down the group." Liang Wenzhen said goodbye to He Zhizhang and Li Bai. "There are a few clean inns nearby, and Brother Liang can go there. What about the immortals? Have you ever found a good place to live? He Zhizhang asked. Li Bai also arrived in Chang'an today, so he went to find the inn with the Liang brothers, and He Lao walked slowly. Li Bai stopped and said. Okay, everyone, tomorrow I will send someone to look for you and wait, and take my leave. He Zhizhang's carriage had already been prepared by the scholar, and after getting into the car, he drove away.
"There's a Yuelai Inn in front of you, Immortals, let's go and have a look." Liang Wenzhen said. "Okay, I'm going to have a drink with Brother Liang tonight." Li Bai was already seven or eight points drunk, and said happily, turning around to lead the way. Liang Wenzhen beckoned, motioned for Xu Fan to come over, and whispered to him to take a gold bar, and turn around to exchange the golden turtle that He Zhizhang had paid off for him. Xu Fan got the order and went back to the wine store to negotiate with the shopkeeper. This golden turtle is not to be said to be a gift from the emperor, even if it is an ordinary gold product, if it is brought back to the 21st century, because it originally belonged to He Zhizhang, it is also very valuable, how can it be given to the wine shop as wine money.
You don't need to take the golden turtle to the auction house for auction, you just need to take a photo and upload it to the Internet, indicating that it is "the golden turtle of the Tang Dynasty He Zhizhang golden turtle for fine wine". Naturally, some experts must be invited to identify it in advance, but how can experts identify whether this golden turtle is from the Tang Dynasty or owned by He Zhizhang? It's impossible. But this is not difficult, experts at the beginning of the 21st century, eat and drink well, and give some silver taels in private, they will inevitably betray their conscience. But the golden turtle he sold was the golden turtle given by Tang Xuanzong to He Zhizhang, but it was true, it can be said that Tong Su was not deceived and worthy of conscience. Liang Wenzhen walked on the road, thinking like this, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Liang Lang, what are you laughing at?" Xu Miaoyin asked suspiciously. His own Lang Jun has amazing actions from time to time, and he actually said that he had been to Zhang Jiuling's home in Shaozhou, and he had also given Zhang Jiuling's eight-character criticism, but he didn't know if it was true or not. "I'm thinking that I'm waiting for luck to be good, when I came here, I met He Lao and Shixian Li Bai, and everything went well, I couldn't ask for better." Liang Wenzhen said. "Brother Liang, the goods are here." Xu Fan caught up behind and said. "Brother Fan is getting more and more effective in doing things." Liang Wenzhen stretched out his hand to take the golden turtle Xu Fan held in his hand, and put it in his arms casually, so that the rest of the people would not see it.
Everyone entered the inn, and after a period of chaos, they finally settled down. Liang Wen really wanted to gather everyone, discuss, and inform him of some precautions, so as not to show his feet, but Li Bai came over and pulled him to the restaurant on the first floor of the inn to drink. Li Bai warmly invited, how could he refuse, Liang Wenzhen called Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Wu Song, Yang Xiong, as well as Niu Ren, Xu Fan, Zhao Min and others, and went downstairs to drink together. Xu Miaoyin, Master Li and others were busy washing and tidying up, and they had no time to take care of others.
"Li Bai, the Sprinkle family has never studied, but they have heard of you, scared, your fame is greater than that of the emperor!" Lu Zhishen finished drinking a bowl of wine and said in a rough voice. "What's the use of being famous?! I haven't been running around for many years, and I'm depressed. Li Bai sighed. Immortals, according to Liang, it is better not to pursue official wealth and wealth, and to live a dull life at home. Your life is already doomed, why bother pursuing the moon in the mirror. Liang Wenzhen persuaded.
"Brother Liang's words are wrong. In life, we must move forward. You don't see it, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns. If, as Brother Liang said, each has a destiny and does not want to forge ahead, what is the fun of living? ! Li Bai disagreed, and said in high spirits. The so-called greater hope, the greater the disappointment, the family reunion, ordinary is true. Because the emperor has been peaceful for a long time, he is indulged in enjoyment, and the society is becoming more and more decaying, and the chaos has become and turmoil is coming. Although He Lao intends to recommend you, don't have too much hope. Liang Wenzhen still insisted on his own point of view.
"I, Li Bai, am full of economy, and I can stabilize the country, and now He Lao intends to carry him, and I am afraid that there will be no bright future. Even if it doesn't work out this time, there will be a next time. Li Bai's friend Gao Shi's brother once had a poem: Don't worry about the road ahead without a confidant, no one in the world knows you. Brother Liang, but is this the truth? Li Bai raised his glass and drank it all, and said excitedly. What the immortals said is also reasonable, if everyone does not pursue progress, how can the society move forward. But in my country, there is an old saying, which is naturally too absolute, and even, but sometimes quite reasonable. This sentence is that character determines fate. is as uninhibited as an immortal, and refuses to bow his head to the powerful, he is arrogant, why should he enter the officialdom and bring humiliation on himself. Liang Wenzhen said sincerely.
"The ** of officialdom is dirty, how do I Li Bai not know. But my generation stands proudly between heaven and earth, with a heroic spirit, ordinary night sparrows, An dares to slander wantonly, towering trees, and grasshoppers can shake. I only need to meet the master, grant the axe, cut off the traitors, and let me kill them, and they will be invincible. Wouldn't it be nice for my generation to soar into the sky and show off his ambitions! Li Bai's words were hearty and heroic. Come, O immortals, drink. That being said, officialdom has its own set of unspoken rules, which are not suitable for you to play, so you should have too much hope, and it is best to dispel this idea. Liang Wenzhen toasted with a bowl, and greeted Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Wu Song and others.
"Thank you Brother Liang for your advice." Li Bai said and drank it all. "I wish Li Shixian a happy life, we must be happy." Liang Wenzhen also drank happily. This Li Bai, who was called into the palace by Tang Xuanzong in the future, was named the edict of Hanlin, responsible for writing articles for the emperor and singing poems of merit and virtue, but he was soon excluded, and was "given gold and released" by Tang Xuanzong three years later, which has a lot to do with his character. Tang Xuanzong is extremely smart, and he will not be granted other official positions, so that he can make a difference, he should know Li Bai's character and ability very well.
That night, Liang Wenzhen and others chatted with Li Baibai in the north and south of the sea, drank a few times, talked a few baskets, and did not disperse until the time of the child, and each went back to his room to rest, and there was nothing to say all night. Liang Wenzhen thought about wandering around Chang'an early tomorrow morning, familiarizing himself with the local customs, and it was best to be able to take a fancy to a business, such as running a wine shop, so that Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong and others could settle down in Chang'an. Of course, you must not do a liquor business, otherwise with Lu Zhishen and Wu Song's temperament, you will eat and drink a lot, lose money sooner or later, and cut off your source of livelihood.
Words are not boring. Early the next morning, after He Zhizhang's early court, he specially reported to see the emperor. Tang Xuanzong Li Longji summoned him in the imperial study, and He Zhizhang recounted in detail what he met with Liang Wenzhen and Li Bai yesterday. "Listening to what Qing said, this Liang Wenzhen is really good at kung fu, and his literary style is not bad, but he is a talent." Li Longji said. His entourage said that he had the ability to predict the future, and he also said that he had calculated for Zhang Qujiang, and he was a famous figure through the ages. Your Majesty, are you credible? He Zhizhang said. This son should have the ability to read people, and it is not known whether he really has the ability of Taoist hexagrams. Zhang Qujiang is personable, methodical, unpretentious, rigorous and dignified, I have been paying attention to him for a long time, and I want to use him as a phase. He Qing's family, you will arrange for this surnamed Liang to come to see me tomorrow. Li Longji's voice was sharp, and he said that he was lacking in qi. Fifty-year-old Li Longji has been the Taiping Emperor for many years, and his health is still healthy at this time, which is not easy.
"Li Bai's poems are famous, yesterday the old minister read his poem "Shu Dao Difficult", the momentum is extraordinary, there is the wind of an immortal, but Your Majesty didn't see him?" He Zhizhang said. "I have heard of Li Bai's name for a long time. His literary style is naturally good, he hunted in the past, and he also came to present "The Great Hunting Fu", which shows his eagerness to advance. Reading his poems, the momentum is like a rainbow, which shows that his human nature is free and unrestrained, but it is inevitable that Meng Lang is more than enough, and the rigor is insufficient, and it is difficult to take on major events. Li Longji said. It has been 24 years since he joined forces with Princess Taiping to launch the "Tanglong Coup" and ascended the throne as emperor two years later, which shows that Li Longji is not only versatile, but also wise and decisive, and intelligent. After some hard work and the appointment of talents, the Tang Dynasty was revitalized in his hands and created a prosperous era of Kaiyuan.
Such a legendary emperor Li Longji said that he was a faint monarch, but not all, he at least created a prosperous era of Kaiyuan; said that he was not a faint king, but because of his neglect of government, he favored Yang Guifei, favored the traitorous minister Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, etc., which brought about the eight-year Anshi Rebellion, and the decline of the Tang Dynasty began from this. But he is smart and keen, but there is no doubt about it, he can see at a glance that Li Baizhi can and cannot, under the unruly character, there is a lack of rigor. Even later, because of the strong recommendation of others, Li Longji summoned Li Bai into the palace, it was in the spirit of making the best use of his talents, and let him be a mere edict, but he was not granted an official position with real power, which is for this reason.
He Zhizhang said goodbye to Tang Xuanzong and left the palace, drove to the place where he drank yesterday, and without much effort, he found out about the inn where Liang Wenzhen and others lived. It's a pity that Liang Wenzhen and Li Bai are out to play and are not in the inn. He Zhizhang drank tea and waited in the inn, and an hour later, Liang Wenzhen and his party came back. "Immortal, Brother Liang, the old man has seen the saint today, but unfortunately things didn't go as planned." He Zhizhang waited for Liang Wenzhen and Li Bai to sit down and drink tea, and then he got straight to the point.
"As Brother Liang said, don't have too much hope? The saint has no intention of summoning Li Bai? When Li Bai heard this, his face changed slightly. The saint mentioned that he had read the "Great Hunting Fu" of the immortals, and thought that the immortals were brilliant and brilliant, which was really rare, but the court had its own way of employing people, and it should not be messed up. He Zhizhang said. I see. Thank you He Lao for Li Bai's kind words, tomorrow Li Bai will leave Chang'an for a long trip, can not come to the door to thank you, here to replace the wine with tea, a cup of congratulations to the old man. Li Bai raised his glass and saluted.
"The talent of the immortals can be shocking, there is no need to be discouraged, he will be saint or change his mind, it is not known. The immortals have a safe journey. He Zhizhang also raised his glass. Li Bai will read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, and broaden his knowledge. Li Bai drank it all. I wish Li Shixian a long future and all the best. Liang Wenzhen blessed. What is the meaning of drinking tea? Wu Song came over and said. Yes, Brother Liang is not allowed to drink, the old man is about to go with you to see Zhang Qujiangli. He Zhizhang said.
"Well, I don't drink. Second Brother Wu, Brother Lu, you wait for some wine and food, and have a drink with Li Shixian, I have eaten with He Lao and went out. Liang Wenzhen said. Lu Zhishen and Wu Song naturally would not be polite, and called the shopkeeper over and asked him to serve wine and food. The shopkeeper was embarrassed, many food inns did not provide it, and Lu Zhishen asked him to go to the wine shop outside to buy it.
The frustrated Li Bai was about to borrow wine to kill his sorrows, and it was perfect to meet Lu Zhishen and Wu Song, two heavy drinkers. As soon as the wine and food came up, everyone pushed the cups and changed the glasses, drank three or four, and ate and drank. Lin Chong Yang Xiong Niu Ren is also a very bold person, that is, Xu Fan and Zhao Min's two descendants, and they are also lively and talkative, which makes Li Bai's heart open and forget his sorrows.
He Zhizhang and Liang Wenzhen ate two bowls of rice, so they beckoned the scholar to prepare the car, left the inn, and went to Zhang Jiuling's mansion in the west of the city. When Zhang Jiuling heard that the Ministry of Industry Shangshu was coming, he came out to greet him, and when he saw that he had brought a man in his thirties, he was puzzled. The three of them sat down at the coffee table, a maid brought tea and poured water, spread fruits, and He Zhizhang introduced Liang Wenzhen to Zhang Jiuling.
"This Liang Wenzhen brother is an old man who met yesterday, he just came to Chang'an, and learned that he is both civil and military. The old man has seen his kung fu with his own eyes, and his literary talent is also quite high. The old man brought him to see Qujiang because he was a fellow villager of Qujiang. He Zhizhang said. Zhang Gong, junior Liang Wenzhen greets! Liang Wenzhen stood up and saluted again. Oh, it turned out to be a folk, excuse me, please sit, please sit. Zhang Jiuling said politely. Nearly sixty years old, he is gentle and elegant, pampered and not shocked, and is very approachable.
"The younger generation is from overseas, but the ancestor is originally from Lingnan, and he also went to Lingnan to ask his ancestors a few years ago, passing through Zhang Gong's hometown of Shaozhou." Liang Wenzhen said. "This Liang brother is very interesting, he once told the fortune of Brother Qujiang, and calculated that the elder brother is a famous face through the ages. Hahahaha, it's inconvenient to say that Brother Qu Jiang will soon be the prime minister. He Zhizhang said with a smile. Oh, Brother Liang still has the ability to divination? Zhang Jiuling asked. In small things, the younger generation does not dare to say that they can calculate it, but they know everything in big things. Liang Wenzhen said indifferently. In order to arouse Zhang Jiuling's attention, Liang Wenzhen was cheeky this time and bragwned.
"In the future, if you want to make a fortune divination and prove whether it works or not, it will take time. But if you don't do divination, it's hard to say whether your divination is accurate or not. Zhang Jiuling groaned. Zhang Gong, the younger generation said something, whether it is accurate or not, it will naturally be known in the future. "Liang Wenzhen said." Oh, Brother Liang said let's hear it. Zhang Jiuling said. Zhang Gongying had seen An Lushan and advised the emperor that this person had a conspiracy against him and a wolf's ambition, so he should be killed to prevent future troubles. "Liang Wenzhen said." How did you find out about this? An Lushan now sits in an important town, and what I said at that time was confidential and could not be passed on. When Zhang Jiuling heard this, his face turned grim.
Liang Wenzhen was able to tell Zhang Jiuling's confidential advice to kill An Lushan, which frightened Zhang Jiuling, whether he could gain Zhang Jiuling's trust to entrust Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong and others to him, and how to face the extremely smart Tang Xuanzong. Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
