"Ziyu, I have proof!"

Mi Fu confidently looked up at Su Zhe, at this moment, even Su Zhe was a little distracted. It was as if the little brother who was waving the flag behind his brother Su Shi had changed someone, which was surprising.

Su Zhe leaned back and said in surprise: "Can you bring it?" ”

"It's nature." After Mi Fu finished speaking, he smiled at Su Zhe and said: "Ziyou, the evidence is here." As he spoke, he patted the sketch under his arm.

Subsequently, Mi Fu handed the sketch to Su Zhe.

In Chinese civilization, painting and calligraphy are of the same origin, and the reason for the homology is that the soul and core of both painting and calligraphy are the control of the line. Mi Fu is calligraphy, even Su Zhe will not deny its excellence. After all, this brother friend who looks confused is indeed much better than him in calligraphy and painting.

There is even a level close to that of his brother Su Shi.

Su Shi, Huang Tingjian, Mi Fu, the level of calligraphy and painting of the three of them, it can be said that Su Zhe is hanging.

For Mi Fu's self-confidence, Su Zhe in the heart, there is also a sense of stability. He unfolded the portrait brought by Mi Fu, and asked Mi Fu: "Yuanzhang, how do you feel in the army during this Northern Expedition?" ”

"Northern Expedition?"

Mi Fu smiled awkwardly and said helplessly: "I also want to fight on the battlefield, but I lack some luck." "I think he is like Li Guang, a famous general of the Han Dynasty, who always misses the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. In fact, he was embarrassed to say that he had never been on the battlefield at all, but lived in the Wenshu Monastery on Wutai Mountain, watching the monks chant scriptures every day, eating fasting and reciting Buddha, and his life was very stable.

At this time, Su Zhe had already unfolded the portrait. There are no framed portraits, and they really don't take up much space. But Su Zhe looked at the unfolding picture, felt as if he had been humiliated, and looked up at Mi Fu.

Mi Fu did not know so, but also thought that their painting skills were looked down upon, heart said: "I am higher than your level." ”

This is not Mi Fu arrogance, but a fact. Mi Fu's paintings are not as far as Huang Tingjian's, not as vigorous as Su Shi, but the characters are his strength. Shanshui is also a figure who founded the sect, how could he be despised by Su Zhe?

Walking up to Su Zhe, he suddenly blushed, and said shyly: "Ziyou, I took the wrong one." In fact, the women of Liao have a unique style, which is very different from the Central Plains, and it is also refreshing to look at. ”

took the wrong painting, which made Su Zhe a little speechless, covered his forehead and said weakly: "Yuanzhang, don't take the wrong one again tomorrow morning, I'm afraid it will be difficult to talk in the court at that time." There are also pieces that must be written in detail, so as not to give people a chance to find faults. ”

"Don't worry, I'm steady!"

Mi Fu then asked curiously: "Ziyou, do you know where Renjie went?" ”

"I heard that I went to Dengzhou." Su Zhe gave up completely, Li Kui was a good official, and now it seems that he wants to pick a son, and he is going to open up overseas fiefdoms. Obviously, Li Kui, who has been repeatedly frustrated, is very disappointed in officialdom.

probably didn't become the middle of the imperial history, and there was a complaint in my heart. What's more, Li Kui doesn't care much about being an official.

Of course, Li Kui is not a master of persuasion. Sometimes than Mi Fu is not reliable, want to come out, is a play, people scratch their heads.

As for Mi Fu?

Su Zhe estimated that if his brain was not broken, he would not entrust him with anything, so he would simply let him go, right? It's not that he doesn't want to help, it's that he can't.

Fortunately, after all, it is a world friend, and before leaving, he instructed two sentences: "Yuanzhang, tomorrow's court will be very important to you, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid you may lose your too often official position." It's best to find someone who can talk. Seeing Mi Fu's eager eyes looking at him, Su Zhe immediately shook his head and said: "It's not that I don't help, now I'm hard to protect myself." ”

Mi Fu tilted his head and said angrily: "I knew that there was a traitor who wanted to harm me!" ”

To be honest, there is really no one who is idle to harm Mi Fu. In the eyes of others, the official position of Taichang Temple is not important, and it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter people, let Mi Fu do it. In particular, Mi Fu looks more like a traitor than anyone else. The gap is that the emperor does not want to see him, and if he gives high-ranking officials generous benefits, it will definitely be one of the scourges in the court.

No one has any hope for Mi Fu, even if it is Mi Fu who has successfully completed the task of Liao, he is not recognized by the court and even the emperor for his ability.

Unlike in the past, the envoys sent by the Great Song Dynasty to the Liao State were always likely to be humiliated by the Liao monarchs and ministers, and this time the Great Song Dynasty fought a big victory that made the Liao State disgraced. The aftermath of the victory, this is the reason why Mi Fu made the Liao State so smooth.

In this battle, even the emperor of the Liao State, Yelu Hongji, died for it.

Although he didn't die on the battlefield, he wasn't much closer.

Under such circumstances, even if the Great Song Dynasty sent a dog to envoy Liao, it would be able to successfully complete the task.

Saying dogs, may belittle Mi Fu's role and talent.

But the problem is that this is really the case. For the first time in more than a hundred years, the Liao State confessed in front of the Great Song Dynasty, and it was so straightforward.

Following.

Morning meeting.

Mi Fu put on the official robe of the third official, and looked at the courtiers around curiously. I always felt that there was something short in my hand, and it took me a long time to react that he didn't take the wat.

Mi Fu was dumbfounded, he stood in place in annoyance, his heart was full of remorse: "Why didn't I take a wat?" ”

Do you have one at home?

No!

He was embarrassed by the first emperor, and he was ashamed of the prestige of the Shenzong milk brothers, which was where he was sad. What made him even more annoyed was that he didn't have a high-end configuration like Wat used in the court?

How rare is it?

Whose seven-grade miscellaneous officials will match themselves? Is he worthy?

Wat is a board that officials hold or hold in their hands when they go to court, and the function is to glue a note, so that when they are invited to write a book, they can prepare a cheat sheet for themselves to prevent them from forgetting in the middle of the words. Of course, now the officials in the court are very impure, and the small glass mirror inlaid on the wat has also become the standard, so that you can not turn your head, do not squint, and can also gain insight into the 'enemy situation'.

The ivory material and the green jade wat are very valuable. The most important thing is that he doesn't need this thing at all! If he doesn't go to court, what does he want Wat to do, and when he quarrels with the neighbors, does he use it as a means of housekeeping?

Mi Fu blink of an eye, really saw an acquaintance, happily raised his hand and shouted: "Brother Jin Qing, help!" ”

Wang Shu was taken aback, who would dare to kill someone outside the Zichen Palace?

Don't want to die?

No one except the emperor is qualified to do anything. But the problem is that the emperor will not kill people casually, and even in the Great Song Dynasty, no matter how much the Great Song Dynasty hates a person, he will not use the means of killing. The emperors of the Great Song Dynasty were very restrained and rarely engaged in extremes.

He fixed his eyes and saw that it was the little brother Mi Fu.

Wang Shu and Mi Fu decades of friendship, the two are world friends, plus the same hobbies, are suave characters. There is a way to love the house and the black, and it is natural to be able to talk about it together. There is also Su Shi's relationship, Wang Shu really can't watch Mi Fu lose his head, and be indifferent.

"Yuanzhang, are you angering the officials?"

According to Wang Xu's estimate, if the emperor is not in a hurry, Mi Fu will never worry about his life.

Mi Fu's eyes stared at the ivory wat board in Wang Xu's hand, and he said embarrassedly: "Brother Jin Qing, I didn't bring the wat board." ”

"If you don't bring it, you don't bring it! Our masters are just playing with the official's house when they go to court, anyway, we can't talk about anything, and no one listens to what we say. This court meeting is also a passing scene, if it weren't for the court's Yulu, I wouldn't want to come. Wang Shu spoke without scruples, and he didn't care what the consequences of such a rebellious word would bring him?

He even dared to bully the eldest princess, that was the sister of Emperor Shenzong, the daughter of the Empress Dowager Xuanren, didn't he live a good life?

Wang Shu is a hob meat, he doesn't believe what can happen to him with a few whining words?

As for Mi Fu to borrow his wat board? Wang Shu didn't look at it, so he sent the wat board in his hand to Mi Fu's arms, and said with a smile: "I sent you, take it to play!" ”

Then his brows rose slightly, and he asked in a low voice as if his heart was itching: "Yuanzhang, how is the terroir of this Liao country?" ”

"Shang Ke, it's a pity that Wang Jin is here, and a fire burned Yanzhou, and he lost many good places. However, Brother Jin Qing, the younger brother of this trip to Liao really saw it. Yan Feihuan is thin, and each has its own merits. The key is that although the style is not as subtle and affectionate as my original plains, it is more enchanting than that. The younger brother was in Zhongjing this time, completed the Baimei map, and asked Brother Jin Qing to come over for guidance. ”

Mi Fu saw a good friend, naturally to share the joy together.

Wang Shu immediately beckoned, and a fair and handsome man came, who seemed to be less than the age of the crown, and was slightly green, but looking at the pair of restless eyes, it was obvious that he was also such a veteran.

"Yuanzhang, this is King Duan."

"Mi Fu has seen the prince."

"Senior, don't be like this, you are my father's peer, Xiao Wang An dares to assert his identity?"

"You're welcome, after retiring from the dynasty, the old man wrapped up the Baixiang Garden, and the new Oiran Liu Ling'er gave the old brother Yuanzhang to pick up the wind, all come! No one can help but give face to the old man. ”

are all with Wang Xu's little brother, Duan Wang Zhao Ji and Mi Fu on their faces, immediately to tout two sentences to make the old man happy.

After the whip, the civil and military officials began to rush in.

Left text right martial arts.

The civil officials were brought into the palace by the prime minister Zhang Dan, and the head of the military generals was Liu Baosheng.

Almost walked to the front of the main hall, someone asked Mi Fu curiously: "Yuanzhang, you are wearing the wrong official robe, right?" ”

The color of the official robes of the Great Song Dynasty is the same, the purple robe above the third grade, the official position of the fourth and fifth grades is the scarlet robe, the fifth rank to the seventh grade is the green robe, and the worst grade is the green robe. Of course, those with the lowest official rank are not qualified to go to the court at all, and those who can participate in the court meeting are also Beijing officials above the sixth rank.

Mi Fu also thought that the other party was mocking him, the first time he went to court, and was bullied...... As soon as my nose was sore, I felt uncomfortable.

After all, this is really the first time Mi Fu participated in the court meeting, and he was worried.

But the babbling voice on the side is quite familiar to me, and after thinking about it carefully, it is the second brother Cheng, the second son-in-law of the Taishi. The wings of the official hat of the Great Song Dynasty are too long, which can make the officials not squint, and at the same time prevent the opportunity to turn heads and ears in the court.

Mi Fu didn't dare to look back, and found that there was a small mirror on Wang Xu's wat board, which shone on the face of Cheng Erge, and the other party reminded him: "Sleeves, the clothes are wrong!" ”

Moire, tiger stripes.

It is only the decoration on the side of the sleeve, but it is the most important mark that distinguishes civil officials from military generals.

Mi Fu then remembered that he was a civil official!

Isn't it just a civil official?

The official position of Taichang Temple, it is impossible to say anything about the military general, right?

But Mi Fu looked up at the front and left, he seemed to be surrounded by the gentlemen. If you want to get out of the camp and run into the civilian camp, I'm afraid it's really not easy. The key is that they have all gone to the court, and the eunuch Hao Sui screamed: "There is something to start, nothing to retreat from the court!" ”

Zhang Dian is a mother, anyway, he has to say two sentences every time he meets the court.

Then the civil officials followed one after another, and the court meeting was very lively and successful.

However, the emperor found that there seemed to be a missing person.

The emperor sitting on the dragon chair couldn't look left and right, but he saw that all the ministers had died down, usually, this should be a retreat from the dynasty, but there was a person who hadn't said it yet?

"Did Tongliao make Taichang Temple Qing Mi Fu come?"

Good guy, if you can't go to court, even the emperor is worried about it.

Mi Fu embarrassedly stood out from a group of generals who were taller than him, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is here." ”

Seeing that he really couldn't hide, Mi Fu stood up hard.

But when he stood up, he was a little at a loss, and he couldn't look at it well, and asked, "Is there a chapter?" ”

"Bring, bringing."

The benefits of meeting Su Zhe yesterday were immediately apparent, and under Su Zhe's suggestion, he handed the prepared piece to Xiao Huangmen. Only then did we wait for the emperor to preview.

"Mi Fu, did you find anything to make an envoy to Liao this time?"

Zhang Dian walked in front of Mi Fu, in the court, there are few officials who dare to move around so unscrupulously. It so happened that Zhang was the most uninhibited official.

Mi Fu trembled and said: "Since the Northern Expedition, the Liao State has lost Yanzhou, Zhuozhou, Tongzhou and other places, and the troops have been greatly damaged, especially the elite of the Liao royal family, and the losses have been serious. Now in the territory of Liao, the royal family is having a hard time. ”

Poor!

To put it simply, that's what it is.

Obviously, Zhang Dian must be dissatisfied with this reply, and asked in a deep voice: "What else?" ”

"The people are poor."

"What else?"

"The powerful are arrogant and extravagant, and they do not care about the suffering of the people."

"What else?"

……

Mi Fu raised his head aggrievedly, and said in his heart: "If it weren't for your old man's official position being scary, he would have to be beaten sooner or later." ”

But no matter how aggrieved he was, he didn't dare to fight with Zhang Dan, so he had to say to Zhang Duan pitifully: "The lower officials are stupid, and they know that they can't go east and west to the military aircraft of the Liao State, but they just took the opportunity to draw down the faces of the monarchs and ministers of the Liao State for Your Majesty, Xiangye, and all the adults for reference." ”

This is the way Mi Fu thought of it, let him say the military situation and people's livelihood in Liao, I am afraid it is difficult. He couldn't even see the Great Song Dynasty, how could he be able to speak the truth by going to Liao for a month or two?

Maybe Su Shi can do it, but he really can't.

It's not that Su Shi can see through the status quo of the Liao people, but that Su Shi is good at writing articles. Under the quotation of scriptures, the problem of seeing the surface is magnified, which is the vision of seeing the leopard stacking the bed frame house. This is why Su Shi is a writer, Mi Fu is not.

But Mi Fu really can't be.

I didn't have time to find a helper.

The reason why he was in a hurry to find Li Kui before was that he wanted Li Kui to polish the piece for him, so that he could get through the trick.

Zhang Dun does not have much hope for Mi Fu, but seeing that Mi Fu seems to have tried his best, he will not ask more.

And Zhao Xu, who got the portrait of the monarch and minister of the Liao Kingdom, also went to the Vertical Arch Hall to study it, looking at the young new monarch of the Liao Kingdom with gloomy eyes on the picture, Zhao Xu felt in his heart that this product was not as good as him.

Dengzhou.

The heroic mercenary group that had been marching for more than half a month finally broke away from Liangshan completely and burned down the Liangshan cottage with a fire.

It means that you are detached from the past.

Along the way, some people are happy and some are sad, and they are happy that several naval commanders are happy, for them, the battlefield of the future heroic mercenary group is the ocean, and without the fetters of land, they will become the real protagonists of the mercenary group.

Among them, Liu Tang was the most proud, pointing to the east from time to time: "I, Liu Tang, as long as there is water, it is my galloping territory, and in the future, the brothers will follow me, and there will be no danger in keeping." ”

However, as the gray layer of the horizon on the horizon became closer and closer, Liu Tang's face finally changed, why couldn't he see the end at a glance...... He is a water bandit, and one day he will be weak because the water is too wide.
