"I'm ashamed, I don't want to be your friend!"

Yuan Zai said this sentence with righteous words in his mouth, and everyone's ears suddenly rumbled!

This is all prestige!

Although Datang is a scholar and selects talents through the imperial examination, the imperial examination system is not perfect at this time, and whether it has a reputation or not can play a vital role in whether it can be promoted to a scholar. Therefore, almost all the literati who entered Beijing had to think of "interfering" in front of the powerful. If this road doesn't work, you have to think of other ways to make a name for yourself.

For example, Chen Ziang, who threw a thousand golden pianos to pass on his own poems, was able to become famous in Chang'an City, and he was a jinshi at the age of twenty-four!

Yuan Zai's criticism of Ye Chang is to create a momentum for himself to brush up his prestige, and because Ye Chang was recommended by He Zhizhang and Li Shizhi, although Ye Chang is a nobody, He Zhizhang is famous all over the world, this brush not only stepped on He Zhizhang's head, but it did not form a mortal enemy.

As for Ye Chang...... Who cares about the feeling of a stepping stone?

Over there, Lu Qi squinted his eyes and looked at Yuan Zai, his heart full of hatred.

This kind of opponent with weak strength and more prestige should be brushed for him!

But Lu Qi was young at this time, and he was not the Lu Qi who made Guo Ziyi fear, and he talked about Ye Chang's brother, which was easy to be criticized: his own father was an official outside, and he did not follow his father to fulfill his filial piety, but stayed in Chang'an City.

At this time, he could only think that Ye Chang was valued by He Zhizhang and was somewhat talented, so he should be able to defend himself, so as not to let Yuan Zai alone brush away all his prestige.

Yan Zhenqing was a little helpless, just now he wanted to collude with Ye Chang first, because he was afraid that such a battle of words would occur, if Ye Chang was not prepared, it would be easy to suffer a big loss.

He looked at Ye Chang, Ye Chang's expression was still stunned, obviously he was embarrassed as soon as Yuan Zai met, and he was not mentally prepared. looked at Yuan Zai again, Yuan Zai didn't show too much pride, but his eyes were blazing.

Yan Zhenqing judged that Yuan Zai was still unfinished!

Sure enough, Yuan Zai paused for a moment, and then said: "Punish without teaching, not the way of sages, Ye Chang, what do you have to say?" ”

This is ready to step on it again, it seems that this Yuan Zai Yuan Gongfu is the kind of ruthless person who rushes to kill everything, and wants to make Ye Chang completely become his prestige!

Ye Chang came back to his senses at this moment, he frowned slightly, and his eyes closed a little because of this.

"I just heard the introduction, your Yuan Gongfu is a native of Fengxiang Qishan, what did you learn, and why did you enter Beijing?" Ye Chang asked unhurriedly.

"A certain proficient old Zhuang Taoist, hearing that the Son of Heaven wants to open a system to raise the Taoist sons, so he came to Chang'an, but he is not a person who came to the capital to play under the pretense of welcoming his brother's coffin!" Sure enough, seizing this opportunity, Yuan Zai began to continue to make trouble: "Father is kind and filial to son, brother and brother are respectful......"

"Wait, you said that you are proficient in Lao Zhuang Taoism, and you came to Chang'an to prepare for the exam?" Ye Chang interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "I thought you could go back to your hometown and continue to study hard." ”

"Fanatic, you dare to curse me?" Won Jae was furious.

"I'm not cursing you, I'm just telling the truth." Ye Chang thought that he had organized those children to hold a debate tournament when he was teaching, so he showed a slight gentle smile, looking at the eyes of others, he was really light at this time, as if he was saying something very ordinary: "Hui Shi reprimanded Nanhua Zhenren 'not too much', it is you at this time." How can those who do not understand their fate be lifted? ”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Qi was still a little dazed, but everyone who knew the allusions that Ye Chang said was stunned and laughed, and the only exception was probably Yuan Zai.

Yuan Zai's face has become more eye-catching than Lu Qi's blue face, because it has completely turned purple.

Ye Chang said that the Nanhua real person is Zhuangzi, and in February this year, Li Longjiqin was named the Nanhua real person for today's son. Zhuangzi's wife died, he sang a song, Hui Shi reprimanded him for going too far, Zhuangzi is a natural law of birth, old age, sickness and death, and crying endlessly is "not fatal".

It would be good if Yuan Zai didn't boast that he was good at Taoism, but in order to make a name for himself, he specifically emphasized that he was a Taoist master, but in the place he was best at, he was slapped by Ye Chang!

At this time, in everyone's ears, there was still a rumbling voice of brushing prestige. It's just that everyone thought that Ye Chang was the object of being brushed, and now it seems that Yuan Zai is the object of being brushed.

Yuan Zai was silent, so he could only shrink back, hoping that everyone would not pay attention to him. He shrank back, and Lu Qi felt as if his opportunity had come.

"Ye Langjun, I heard that you were in the countryside, and you once organized people to dig ditches to divert water, and you must be good at calculating......

"Goro, Xiao Goro!" Ye Chang heard the string song and knew the elegant meaning, and directly called Xiao Bailang over.

Xiao Bailang admired Ye Chang at this time, and those revenge hearts were long gone. There is no other reason, this morning, Ye Chang was entangled by him, and played a few games with him to get copper coins, and after he lost again, he revealed the mystery.

This method of calculation made Xiao Bailang dumbfounded, and then he understood why he always lost.

"Eleven Lang, but what do you command?"

Ye Chang smiled and said to Lu Qi: "I will teach this Xiao Wulang a calculation technique today, and the two of you can go and play on the side." ”

Lu Qi's eyes suddenly overflowed with coldness: "Ye Langjun looks down on me?" ”

"Yes, your talent is limitless, but at this time, the way of arithmetic, you are too far behind me." Ye Chang comforted him a little and said, "You and Xiao Wulang will try it, and only if you defeat him will you be qualified to challenge me." ”

When Xiao Bailang heard that he was going to compare copper coins with Lu Qi, he immediately grinned, his eyes were full of evil taste: he has been abused by Ye Chang for a long time, and now someone has come to him to beg for abuse, how can he be unwilling! Without waiting for Lu Qi to object, he pulled Lu Qi aside and told him the rules.

However, Lu Qi was poor, his clothes were all old and patched, and he didn't find a few copper coins for a long time. is still Li Xia's house slave, took out a handful of copper coins, and the two of them went to the side to play.

Ye Chang looked at everyone and sat upright: "You guys are here, I don't know what to say?" ”

It was only at this time that everyone remembered that they had originally come to make friends with Ye Chang, but now it seemed that they had become embarrassed for Ye Chang. And Yuan Zai lost face too quickly, so that their companions were a little embarrassed, especially Li Xia, who was even more faintly unpleasant.

Seeing that everyone was silent, he could only cough, stepped forward and said: "He Gong praised Ye Langjun, I saw it today, and it really deserved its reputation, but what is Ye Langjun's ambition to be flat, is it just this cockfighting lackey ball game or something, or just using the cockfighting lackey ball game as a step forward, and being a courtier?" ”

At this time, it was the Tang Dynasty, and people with a little talent wanted to become a leader, so that they could make contributions and make a wife. However, the means of each person's appearance are different, some are poor and take the road of the imperial examination, some are secluded and invite fame to take the shortcut to the south, and some are pretending to be crazy to attract attention.

But no matter which method you do, you look down on Jia Chang, this market boy can be favored by Li Longji by relying on cockfighting, but in the hearts of the world, he is still just a courtier after all.

In Li Xia's words, it was to squeeze Ye Chang.

Ye Chang was still smiling, and then said: "Zeng Dianzhizhi, that is, a certain Zhizhi, don't you hear me and Dianye!" ”

This is another allusion, only this time, Ye Chang took out an orthodox Confucian allusion. Confucius asked his disciples about their aspirations, and once said that in the twilight of spring, he changed into new clothes and went to play in the water with adults and teenagers, singing and dancing, and returned with great joy. Confucius sighed and agreed: "I am with the dots."

"This ......" Li Xia was speechless for a moment, Confucius's ambitions are nothing more than that, so what is Ye Chang playing football with some adult teenagers?

Although he knew that Ye Chang deliberately misinterpreted Confucius and Zeng Dianzhizhi, if he wanted to argue strongly, he could also associate kicking football with swimming, singing and dancing. Li Xia is a child of a family, and he is a court official, and Ye Chang is just a cloth cloth, and his reputation is not obvious, Li Xia is not in a hurry to become famous Yuan Zai and Lu Qi, when he saw that Ye Chang had no chance to take advantage of it, he naturally would not debate with him and bring humiliation on himself, so Ha Luha laughed: "Ye Langjun is really a master!" ”

He opened his mouth to ease the atmosphere, and everyone came up one after another, chatting with Ye Chang. When others are not hostile, Ye Chang is still very easy-going, dealing with them one by one, occasionally making a joke, sometimes laughing at himself, everyone talks and laughs, but they are also happy.

The only one who didn't join, I'm afraid it's Yuan Zai.

Yuan Zai shrank in the middle of the people at this time, with jealousy and shame in his eyes, he originally wanted to brush his reputation on Ye Chang, but he was brushed back, of course he would not take the initiative to jump out at this time. However, Ye Chang felt his gaze and looked over with a smile: "This Yuan Gongfu, isn't he ashamed to make friends with me, why is he still here?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's perception of Ye Chang changed again: This guy can't be offended, and he is also a cautious person!

"You!"

"I'm different from you, no matter what kind of character you are, whether you don't learn or have no skills, or if you have a ghost in your heart, I'm happy to make friends with them." Ye Chang said slowly.

Where is Yuan Zai's face to stay here at this time, cover his face with his sleeves, turn around and leave. Yan Zhenqing saw it and pulled Ye Chang: "Why bother? ”

"If anyone does not offend me, I will not offend, but if anyone offends me, I will offend."

These words made everyone even more vigilant, don't make a fuss like Yuan Zai, and don't see what a talent is. There are so many people present today, Ye Chang ridiculed Yuan Zai's matter, it will definitely be rumored, Yuan Zai entered Beijing to participate in the imperial examination this time, and it is almost impossible to get to the top again.

Whoever dares to admit such a student will inevitably be attacked by the official.

"I just watched Ye Shiyi Lang playing ball with others, I don't know what kind of ball game this is?" After a moment of embarrassment, someone asked.

Ye Chang took the opportunity to introduce football, and added at the end: "The people of the market, the polo scene can't afford to play, and the juju scene is too complicated, but it is not as happy as this football play." The two sides scored more goals than anyone else, and there are vanguards, Chinese troops and defenders, which secretly combine the way of the art of war. ”

"Ha Luha, at this time, the world is peaceful, and the art of war is useless, and it can only be used in these." Someone said with a smile.

This was still mocking, but it was not obvious, so Ye Chang did not fight back. The man also clicked to the end, and didn't dare to continue, after all, Ye Chang had already given everyone the impression that there was a needle hidden in the cotton, and no one was targeted by him.

A pillar of incense kung fu has arrived at this time, Ye Chang got up and confessed to everyone: "I want to act as a referee, I will miss the company for a while, since you are interested in this football scene, and watch these sons and daughters play for half a time." ”

Xiao Bailang didn't play, he still accompanied Lu Qi to play there, Ye Chang took the opportunity to disrupt those scoundrels and redivide them, and after reiterating the various rules, he let the two sides play. Seeing that the two sides were indeed arranged in a formation according to the front, middle, and rear, Yan Zhenqing and the others who were watching thought of Ye Chang's way of secretly combining the art of war and battle formation, and it seemed that it was not a lie.

The game started quickly, because Ye Chang had explained some rules, so everyone could see it more clearly. These people who play on the field are all found by Xiao Bailang, and they have all played Keju before, so the ball sense and ball skills are quite good, stopping the ball, passing, passing, intercepting, and stealing, all of which are done in a decent way. The two sides went back and forth, and the transition between offense and defense was very fast, and Ye Chang also tried not to interrupt them as much as possible, so that the practice match remained smooth.

In this way, the highly confrontational nature of football is undoubtedly revealed. And the onlookers went from being just curious at first to finding it interesting, and even began to cheer for a beautiful move or a clean steal. In addition to them, the people watching the excitement in this neighborhood gradually gathered, and more than 100 people on the sidelines applauded, if it wasn't for Ye Chang's arrangement of manpower to maintain on the sidelines, I am afraid that many people would also come into the stadium to kick two feet by themselves.

The kung fu of the two pillars of incense passed in a blink of an eye, during which the two sides scored a total of nine goals, which was also the inevitable result of the beginning of the football play. No matter how good their Keju foundation is, it is impossible to perfectly practice good tactics when they are new to football.

However, there are many goals and many benefits, and every goal makes everyone happy, so when Ye Chang came down with a sweat, Yan Zhenqing greeted him and said: "When you invite Zhang Gong to come and see, Zhang Gong can understand the mystery of calligraphy when he sees Gongsun Auntie dancing with a sword, and he will be able to gain something from watching the game today!" ”

"Brother Qingchen, you are so good at calligraphy, and your achievements in the way of calligraphy in the future will definitely not be under Zhang Gong." Ye Chang smiled: "These days, help me write some more words, and when your name is spread all over the world, Brother Qingchen, I will sell one piece every year and make a living from it." ”

This is a joke, Yan Zhenqing didn't feel offended and angry at all, but stroked his forehead and laughed.

At this time, the mustard in his heart had completely disappeared, and instead of it, he secretly apologized to Ye Chang: he had just mistakenly thought that Ye Chang had no heart and lungs, it turned out that he was not mourning the death of his brother, but he had seen through life and death, which was far from the realm that secular people like them could understand.

No wonder he can meet immortals, this state of mind alone is almost immortal.

"Let's try it too?" Yan Zhenqing consciously realized that Ye Chang's intentions were sincere, and when he was sorry, he intended to cheer for him. Ye Chang wants to create the momentum of football play, so he will help to support the game, and Li Xia's identity is obviously of great help to promote football.

He started together, and the young man who came with Li Xia was also eager to try, it was Li Xia, who felt that he played well and bowed, and it shouldn't be a problem to play this, so he really went to try.
