He knew that he was not a righteous gentleman, he would play tricks, and he would be a bit utilitarian in his life and work. But at the same time, he is also a person who values affection and righteousness, so he regards Xiang'er, Ye Shu and sister-in-law as real relatives, and he is a little Chunming, and he is also treated kindly. As for the people who befriended him, whether it was Qin Qinshou, Shi Shanzhi, or He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu, he was using them, but at the same time he was also repaying them.

He knew that he was an outsider, carefully protecting his greatest secret, hiding his true nature, but inadvertently, he found that his true nature was still exposed.

As a man like him in two lives and has rich experiences, where will he be willing to be lonely?

Not to mention that Ye Chang was wondering what kind of character he was in his heart, after Lu Qi left, in order to prevent Ye Chang from turning over, he swam around and exerted his strength everywhere. At the same time, he didn't talk much about Ye Chang's intention to hold a football game, and to put it mildly, it was to publicize that he had suppressed Ye Chang.

This is the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, not the later generation of gentleness and courtesy, so his words and deeds have brought him a lot of fame. Originally, He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu recommended Ye Chang a lot, and made a name for Ye Chang: the young talent is high, the poetry is worrying, and the pen opens a new river. And two or three sentences outside Qinglong Temple forced Yuan Zai to hide his face and flee, which gave Ye Chang a certain impression in Chang'an City. But now, Lu Qi, who is also young and wise, is stumped, forcing him to fail to hold a ball game, and only staying in He Zhizhang's mansion to study hard behind closed doors is still spreading.

So Lu Qi's reputation was about to overpower Ye Chang.

But for a city like Chang'an, don't say that Ye Chang and Lu Qi are only third- or fourth-rate characters - even Li Bai, whose poetry is famous all over the world, is only a second-rate figure here and now, so it is only in the small circle of literati that Lu Qi and Ye Chang will be used as talking points. In larger circles, another incident caught everyone's attention.

The day of Avalokiteshvara's enlightenment is approaching.

June 19 is the legendary Guanyin Bodhisattva enlightenment day, it is rumored that on the occasion of the Great Sui Dynasty in the previous dynasty, the poisonous dragon plagued the people in Chang'an, a monk who lived in seclusion in the south Wutai Mountain outside Chang'an City subdued it, on June 19 of the following year, the monk passed away, and a vision appeared in the air, which was originally the manifestation of Guanyin Bodhisattva. This rumor is widely spread in Chang'an City, so June 19 is recognized as the day of the completion of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Although the Tang Dynasty suppressed the Buddha, it was not the Wuzong period of destroying the Buddha at this time, so the Buddhist pujas of various monasteries had long been in preparation.

"He Gong, today Guanyin Bodhisattva is on the day, I want to go to Qinglong Temple to pray for my brother, and I also ask He Gong for permission." Early this morning, Ye Chang said to He Zhizhang.

"Ah...... "This is the right thing, He Zhizhang has a thousand reasons, and there is no reason to stop Ye Chang from praying for his brother's blessings, so he sighed slightly: "It just so happens that the old man has nothing to do, so he will accompany you through this experience." ”

Ye Chang was a little embarrassed: "He Gong, my brother is blessed, but I don't deserve He Gong to be like this." ”

"Don't worry, the old man is just visiting the temple." He Zhizhang said with a smile.

Ye Chang had no choice but to agree. He Zhizhang also invited some guests, including Zhang Xu, Yan Zhenqing, etc., and asked people to prepare wine, obviously, after this ceremony, it will be another drunk.

Qinglong Temple is a famous place in Chang'an City, it was originally Guanyin Temple, so Buddhism is the most prosperous. When everyone came, they found that there were crowds around Qinglong Temple, and I don't know how many.

"It's really lively, and there are more people coming here to worship the Buddha this year than in previous years." Seeing this situation, He Zhizhang was a little happy, and when he was old, he liked to be lively: "Thirty years ago, during the Jingyun period, the name of Qinglong Temple was still Guanyin Temple - do you know the origin of the name of this temple?" ”

"Please also ask Gong He to relieve our confusion." Someone laughed.

"This temple was originally the inspiration temple of the previous dynasty, in the second year of Longshuo, the princess of Chengyang was seriously ill, and the monk of Suzhou came here to pray for the princess to pray for the blessing of the Guanyin Sutra, so this temple was renamed Guanyin Temple." He Zhizhang believes in Taoism the most, but he is also easy to come to this allusion: "Since Si, this temple has been full of incense, but in previous years, it was not as lively as this year." ”

"I heard that the monks of Qinglong Temple have a big Buddha thing, and we want to let the monks and laymen enjoy together, and the noble and the lowly appreciate together." Someone interjected.

"Big Buddha thing? What kind of big Buddha thing? He Zhizhang said strangely.

"Well, speaking of Avalokiteshvara...... He Gong, there is one thing I don't understand, why don't you avoid Emperor Taizong's secrecy? Ye Chang interjected at this time, and asked for the dare to He Zhizhang.

He didn't want He Zhizhang to break the casserole pattern to the end.

The question of "Emperor Taizong's ......" made He Zhizhang slightly stunned, and then thought for a while: "I remember that Emperor Taizong only said that the two words were connected, and there was no need to avoid them. ”

Guanyin was originally called Guanyin, and later changed to Guanyin, and many people thought that it was to avoid the suspicion of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. In fact, Li Shimin was very generous about this, and he only asked the people to avoid the continuous reading of the word "Shimin", and a single word "Shi" or "Min" did not shy away from it when he was alive. The age of this matter is already a little far away, Ye Chang brought the topic to Taizong, and He Zhizhang forgot to ask the monks of Qinglong Temple about the Buddha.

They went to Qinglong Temple to worship the Buddha, and after the ceremony was completed, most of the hours had passed. They had avoided coming at noon, but it was still very hot, so everyone was sweating profusely. He Zhizhang didn't realize that he was old, but Ye Chang, Yan Zhenqing and others couldn't stand it. After a discussion, they took a cool dip in the shade of the trees in the temple to cool off the heat and escape the summer.

The location of Qinglong Temple is Leyouyuan, in Chang'an City, it is a relatively remote location, but because it is close to Yanxing Gate, there are many people in front of the temple, and there are many people who come to worship in the temple. Everyone sat for a while, and then saw that someone was looking for them, and Ye Chang looked at it intently, it was Li Xia and others.

This time, Li Xia was accompanied by more literati and Confucian scholars, and many of them were holding folding fans in their hands, shaking them three times in one step, and they were the undergraduates and the first. Ye Chang couldn't help but smile when he saw the folding fans in their hands: Most of the folding fans in the hands of these people were given by Qin Qinshou, but they are all celebrities in Chang'an City now, and now they come out, but they are all live advertisements!

The better the advertising effect, the more folding fans are sold, the more capital Qin Qinshou has in his hands, and if he needs it, he should not be too embarrassed to borrow three or five hundred yuan.

Thinking of this, the "horn" in his hand sounded, and the folding fan in his hand was also opened.

He looked at Li Xia and his party and smiled, but some people in Li Xia's party were gritting their teeth.

It is Wonzai.

After being embarrassed by Ye Chang's words last time, Yuan Zai was very restrained for a few days, but then Lu Qi stumped Ye Chang and made the football match that Ye Chang wanted to hold unable to do, which made Yuan Zai feel extremely relieved. Therefore, he came with a shy face today, just to see Ye Chang's dejected appearance.

He is still white, and he also has a folding fan in his hand, but the folding fans of the Jinshi around him look obviously more high-end, and the ones he holds in his hand are just ordinary goods. At this time, what Ye Chang was holding in his hand was specially made for him by Qin Qinshou, and the poems and paintings on it were all written by famous artists, and the characters were simply Zhang Xu's title. Yuan Zai is a luxurious person, and he can't see other people have good things, so after seeing it, his eyes suddenly bulged.

And Ye Chang shook his fan and chuckled, which was also regarded by him as laughing at him.

"Hey, isn't this Xiuwu Ye Chang, you are just a white body, three generations of ancestors, and you don't have an official body, so you dare to hold a right military fan?" Yuan Zai took the first step to speak, in addition to coming to see Ye Chang's liveliness today, he also had a purpose, which was to save his reputation, so naturally he couldn't leave the opportunity to beat the water dog to others.

Ye Chang didn't notice him at first, but now he realized that this guy was also mixed in the crowd. Hearing the thorns in his words, Ye Chang was also arrogant: "Although none of the three generations of my ancestors have an official body, but they go back to the beginning, they are descendants of Emperor Zhuan Miao, after Chu Zuo Sima, Ye Gong is the beginning of the surname - I don't know what Yuan Zai is your ancestor's surname, what is your father's surname, and what is your own surname?" ”

As soon as these words came out, people who didn't know the way of Lu couldn't figure it out, and felt that Ye Chang was a little rude, but the people who knew the way couldn't help but cover their mouths, and looked at Yuan Zai's expressions were different, and a few people who stood close to him were busy standing farther away, as if they were afraid of something bad luck coming from Yuan Zai.

Yuan Zai's face was no different from Lu Qi's indigo face.

He was annoyed in his heart, why did he mention Ye Chang's ancestor in a hurry-not only should he not mention it, but someone else mentioned it, and he should also think of diverting the topic. The reason is very simple, Yuan Zai's father was originally surnamed Jing, and he presided over the field rent in Fufeng County for the Yuan family of Cao Wang Ming's concubine, so he assumed the surname Yuan!

Although with the relationship of King Cao, Yuan Zai's father also became a foreign official, but after all, he was the one who changed his surname and abandoned the sect, he said Ye Chang, in fact, he brought humiliation on himself!

What Yuan Zai couldn't understand was that the affairs of his family were very secret, how did Ye Chang know about it?

Yuan Zai was a little creepy, and he suddenly realized that some of his situations seemed to be completely under Ye Chang's control. He studied Taoism, his family background, and even his inner thoughts.

There were whispers around, and Yuan Zai understood that it was an insider who was spreading the news that his father had changed his surname to Yi Zong, and the matter would soon spread out, and at that time, he Yuan Zai had to explain to the questioner why his father had changed his surname to Yi Zong.

He retracted into the crowd, and none of the people who followed Li Xia came out to question Ye Chang's folding fan at this time. In their minds, Ye Changmian's hidden needle is a solid character, and whoever is full will provoke him again.

Naturally, there are also those who are full, such as Lu Qi. But Lu Qi had the upper hand at this time, and he wanted to see Ye Chang's jokes, not his own jokes.

The Buddhist activities were very lively, and after a short rest, He Zhizhang watched around with great interest, and he had to take these scholars and Confucian scholars around him to recite poems and lyrics. Ye Chang remained silent and never said a word, Lu Qi secretly observed him and felt that his silence seemed to have a deep meaning.

Yuan Zai is not good at poetry, but he still chanted a song, and when everyone climbed the pagoda of Qinglong Temple, looking at the west wall of Chang'an City in the distance, and a round of red sun hung on the city wall, Yuan Zai felt that his last opportunity had come.

"Ye Chang, I heard that you once had two poems, one is Yongzhu, and the other is Fenglingdu?" He raised his voice in the crowd, and everyone knew that there was a lively scene to see, and they fell silent one by one.

Ye Chang tilted his head and glanced at Yuan Zai, with something strange in his eyes.

Lu Qi noticed this abnormality and was very curious in his heart: why did Ye Chang have a little pity in his eyes?

Yuan Zai saw that Ye Chang was silent, so he smiled: "It can be seen that Ye Chang, you don't know how to compose poetry, but today's group of virtuous and elegant gatherings, ascending to the heights and enjoying the coolness, you don't mention a word, is it just like Jiang Lang, the pen is accepted by others, so you don't say a word?" ”

If it was just talking about this, it would be just sarcasm, but Yuan Zai immediately said: "Or Ye Chang, you have no literary brilliance at all, and those two poems were originally plagiarized and plagiarized?" ”

Everyone was in high spirits: **Here it is!

After being stabbed by Ye Changmian's hidden needle, Yuan Zai made a comeback this time, presumably he was prepared, at this time, if Ye Chang wrote poetry, he would incite everyone to give him a bad comment on the poem, if Ye Chang didn't do it, he would have planted the name of plagiarism before!

Yuan Zai analyzed the two "Ye Chang's poems" that had been circulated before, and felt that even if those two poems were written for him, Ye Chang was only ingenious, but in fact, the poetry was not high, so he dared to launch this attack - among the people around him, there were quite a few bitter and mean tongues.

"Those two poems were indeed copied by a certain person, and a certain person said it at the beginning, and he got it in a dream, and he copied it by hand. Where does a layman know what poetry? Ye Chang responded calmly.

"Ha Luha, it was really copied, but when Ye Chang copied the poem, he only remembered to copy the poem, but he forgot to copy the poem!" Yuan Zai laughed and said, "Could it be that you still have a choice when copying?" Also, what do you say about copying poems in your dreams, why didn't you copy a few more poems in your dreams, you can use them at this time! ”

Ye Chang also smiled: "Who said that I couldn't copy a few more songs in my dream?" ”

"Oh? So why don't you say it? ”

"After saying it, I'm just afraid of sweeping everyone's interest."

"Hehe, don't worry, no matter how bad the poems you copied, everyone will only be more interested." Yuan Jae was even more happy.

Even if Ye Chang's poems were copied from "dreams", the halo that shrouded Ye Chang's head now would fade a lot, and He Zhizhang, Zhang Xu and others would not respect him so much. Yuan Zai is no longer thinking about inviting himself to be famous, but to destroy Ye Chang's reputation: Since you have made me lose my reputation, then don't blame me for ruining your reputation.

Ye Chang glanced at him again, and then spoke.

"The sky is surging and the lonely bird is gone, and the eternal sales are sinking into this. Look at the career of the Han family, there is no tree in Wuling and the autumn wind. ”

Everyone was stunned, although this seven-character quatrain was not amazing, but it was decent, at least it was better than what they had just recited.

Without waiting for everyone to stop, Ye Chang said again: "Qing Shi is incompetent, and he loves lonely clouds and loves monks. If you want to go to the river and the sea, you can look at Zhaoling on the original road. ”

Everyone was stunned again, this one is better than a song, especially the sentence of idle love lonely cloud quiet love monk, when it is quiet in this noise, it really makes people have the idea of being out of the dust!
