Thinking of this, Cao Luzhuang immediately asked, "Dare to ask the little brother, where is your General Li going to take you?" ”

When the soldier heard this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "We want to defect to Generalissimo Zhu Weideng, but we don't know if he will take us in, and I don't know if Generalissimo will deal with General Li with military law." If so, wouldn't we have come to the capital for nothing? ”

"Oh! ......" Cao Luzhuang couldn't help but nod and said, "When the national disaster is at hand, it is the time to employ people. I think Marshal Zhu Weideng categorically will not dispose of you. Maybe the marshal will reuse your General Li to crusade against Lin Keduo! ”

"Thank you, old man, for saying that!"

"Ahem! How to say thank you? Little brother, hurry up and go to the hospital to rest! ”

After Cao Luzhuang finished speaking, he still walked forward worriedly. ……

It is said that the third prince Ye left the Daxingshan Temple harmlessly, and soon, he came to the place where the inscription engraved with the Tang Dynasty's "Twelve Classics" was concentrated. Because he knew in his heart that the scriptures engraved on this stone tablet were the "Twelve Classics of Confucianism", which were a must-read text for literati in all dynasties. And every year's examination, whether it is the hospital examination, the township examination (solution examination), the meeting examination, or the palace examination presided over by the emperor himself, there are indispensable questions from it! In fact, the so-called "Four Books and Five Classics", namely "Analects", "University", "The Mean", "Mencius" and "Book of Songs", "Book of Songs", "Book of Changes", "Book of Rites" and "Spring and Autumn", except for "Mencius", the rest are among the twelve classics. Among them, "University" and "The Mean" are selected from the "Book of Rites", and "Book of Songs", "Book of Songs", "Zhou Yi", "Zhou Li", "Rites", "Book of Rites", "Spring and Autumn Zuo's Biography", "Spring and Autumn Ram Biography", "Spring and Autumn Valley Liang Biography", "Analects", "Filial Piety Classic" and "Erya" are the so-called "Twelve Classics", if you add the article "Mencius", it will become a veritable "Confucian "Thirteen Classics".

However, when he came to the place where the inscriptions were concentrated, things were as expected, but this place was the same as the Daxingshan Temple he went to: although it could not be said that it was crowded with people, the "Kaicheng Stone Scripture", which had a total of 114 scripture tablets, had already been surrounded by people who came to take the exam. Standing outside the crowd and looking around, he suddenly noticed that the crowd on the opposite side seemed to be very crowded, and there were still sounds of admiration from inside.

So, yes didn't take a lot of effort to finally squeeze into this crowd. He wanted to see what it was that could make the inscription so compelling. But, when he gets to his feet, he takes a closer look - cough! Who are these people admiring the inscriptions? It turned out to be a talented man sitting in front of a scripture tablet in front of everyone, writing hard! I saw that this person's right foot was pressed on the left thigh, and his upper body leaned forward slightly, while his left hand was grinding ink, and his right hand was waving to write the scriptures on the stone tablet. Suddenly, Ye Wuwu's heart has understood that the reason why this place can attract so many people to come to watch and hear bursts of praise is not only because there are inscriptions and stone carvings written by famous people in the previous dynasties in this crowd, but more importantly, because there is a talented person in this crowd who writes in public.

So, the third prince Ye harmless continued to look at the future: I saw that this person's true eyes no longer looked at the scriptures on the stone tablet, but looked directly at his pen tip like a pen walking dragon and snake, and the clouds and smoke were swirling; In an instant, several lines of handwriting flew by. Then, he threw the handwritten paper into the crowd and continued to look for paper and ink to write! At the same time, those in the crowd who had received the paper thrown at it ran to one place in ecstasy to study and admire it. However, to everyone's surprise, I saw that this person's penmanship was getting faster and more intense, as if there was no one around, and after several rounds of bowing, the pieces of paper that swept away had dispersed the onlookers around him! Its pen is not fast, as fast as a sword in the wind, all breathtaking!

However, when the man finished writing the last piece of paper and sat in contemplation suddenly, the third prince did not move half a step, but carefully examined the person's one mind, one state and one style. In Ye's harmless eyes, this scene passed by, but he quickly thought of the characters, thoughts, opinions, and movements of "immortals, Buddhas, Taoism, Confucian monks and nuns" and "industrial, industrial, agrological, academic, and military doctors". Why? Because Ye Wuwu had already seen that this person was not only practicing calligraphy, but also practicing sitting meditation. He is practicing one of the Buddha Gautama Siddhartha ~ Shakyamuni asana sitting half-kneeling single-disc auspicious sitting; Looking at his thoughtful and worried demeanor, Ye Wuwu has guessed that this person must have something unspeakable. What's more, when he saw the ending words of the "Book of Songs, Xiaoya, Caiwei" written by him, he understood the thoughts of this sitting man better.

Therefore, when everyone was in an uproar, the third prince Ye Wuwu still respectfully followed, and used his charming voice to express the heartfelt words of the person at this time: "In the past, I was in the past, and the willows were still there." Now I think about it, the rain and snow are falling. The way is slow, thirsty and hungry. My heart is sad, I don't know how I mourn! ”

Just when the remnants of Ye Wuwu's voice were not extinguished, I saw that the person who was sitting and meditating finally turned sideways slightly, and asked the person behind him in a tone that was still unfinished: "May I ask what your Excellency is ......?"

"Oh!" Ye Wuwu heard the question, and hurriedly smiled and said, "I am from Bashu East Road, my surname is Ya Wuwu, and I have come to the capital to take the exam!" ”

"Rush to take the exam?! Hahaha......" The man suddenly burst out laughing, and then he stopped laughing abruptly, turned his head and asked, "May I ask how many times this year Ye Gongzi has come to take the exam?" ……”

"Huh? ......" Ye was a little baffled by his question, and he felt the boss's displeasure in his heart. He thought to himself: "I have been looking forward to it for a long time when I came to the capital for the first time to catch the exam, and I am a little impatient!" Why does he still want me to be on the list a few times and now come to catch the exam again? It's too much to underestimate me, it's harmless! ……”

The third prince Ye was thinking sullenly like this, only to hear the person sitting on the plate say again: "If you are coming to take the exam for the first time, then I advise you to return to your hometown as soon as possible!" lest you lose the list and have no shame to see your hometown fathers. ”

Hearing this, the third prince was even more angry. He thought to himself, what's wrong with this person today? Got the wrong medicine? It's really unfortunate to say such unlucky and discouraged words to people before the exam! This mourning star! Didn't he deliberately cause trouble and make people angry? …… Could it be that he himself experienced this and was complaining disgruntled about it? Thinking of this, Ye Wuwu forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and asked coldly: "May I ask your honorable name!" ”

When the man heard this, he slowly stood up and said, "The humble man is not talented, his surname is Zhang Mingxu, a person from Ji'an, Jiangnan, and he is known as 'Zhang Cao is alive'. ”

"Hahaha......" The third prince finally couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Zhang Xu, who claimed to be "Zhang Cao is alive", was a little "confused" by the "wavy" laughter of Ye Wuwu. He said in his heart: "I reported my name, and instead of respecting him, he laughed out loud!" There is a lot of ridicule! It's the first time I've seen such a figure who doesn't know how high the sky is! Could it be that he has not heard of the name of my 'Zhang Cao is alive'? If so, he is too lonely and unheard! If you want to say that the literati in the world are like children, no one knows who doesn't know that there is a 'Zhang Cao alive' Zhang Xu in Jiangnan, and they want to see it in their dreams. This son surnamed Ye did the opposite, and he didn't care, how could it be reasonable? Annoying! Hateful! Kill me too! ”

Thinking of this, I saw Zhang Xu angrily questioning Ye Wuwu: "Ye Gongzi!" What are you laughing at? Do you think I, Zhang, don't deserve this title? ”

"It's not! I'm laughing for a reason! Laugh when you open your mouth, laugh at the ridiculous people in the world; A big belly can tolerate, and the world can tolerate things. Ye looked at Zhang Xu and said generously, "I thought who was so fond of talking wildly?" It turned out to be 'Zhang Cao Zhang Dingzi' with the same name as Zhang Xu, a native of Suzhou in his previous life. Ya is disrespectful! Disrespectful! I hope that 'Zhang Cao is alive' will forgive more! ”

"Hah! Ha! Ha! Zhang Xu laughed loudly again, "I didn't expect Ye Gongzi to be very good at talking." Since I am the bold and unrestrained Zhang Dianzi, how can I care about these things with you? What words of forgiveness to talk about? I think you and I have the right conversation! ”

"Really?" Ye said with a harmless smile, "People say that Zhang Xu is proficient in regular script, and cursive writing is the most well-known. He often shouts and walks wildly after getting drunk, arrogant and unrestrained, ignoring the dignity of the powerful, in front of the illustrious princes, taking off his hat, revealing the top of his head, writing hard, the wonderful cursive script flows straight down, the pen walks the dragon and snake, the handwriting is as free as a cloud of smoke, the words are earth-shattering, and it seems to be like a ghostly workmanship. It is simply a pen with the help of ghosts and gods, and it is called "grass saint" and "Zhang Dian". When I saw it today, it was really extraordinary. ”

"Hah! Ha! Ha! Zhang Xu smiled disappre一门ly, "May I ask Ye Gongzi, are you talking about Zhang Xu from the previous dynasty, or Zhang Xu in front of you?" ”

"Hah! Ha! Ha! The former Zhang Xu and the latter Zhang Xu, although they are not of the same generation, but they have similar personalities and demeanors, and they are all good at cursive writing with the help of God, what is the difference between before and after? Otherwise, how can it have the reputation of 'Zhang Cao in the world'? ”

"Wonderful! Ye Gongzi is a young man, his language is amazing, and his words are comfortable and pleasant, which is really like 'Zong Zhi came to me, a chic and beautiful boy, as bright as a jade tree in front of the wind'. ”

Scold! Look! These two sour and stinky old Jiuxiu are touting each other! It's really like the "Liangshan hero" among the literati - if you don't fight, you don't know each other. "As the so-called "fish look for fish, shrimp look for shrimp, crickets look for grasshoppers, and turtles look for kings." The old monk is looking for a nun, and the Taoist priest is looking for a teacher. This is a model of "people are divided by groups, and things are gathered by likes"! Of course, we are not commenting on them here to ridicule them, but to greatly praise them. Please don't be too careful about the ancients!

At this time, Ye Wuwu heard Zhang Xu's words of approval, he was slightly surprised, and asked: "It seems that Brother Zhang must have read the poem "Eight Immortals in Drinking" by Du Fu's predecessors. ”

"Hah! Ha! Ha! Zhang Xuxu smiled and said generously, "You and I are each other, can you sing this poem with me?" ”

When he heard Zhang Xu's invitation, he couldn't refuse, so he happily responded: "Okay! Let's ask Brother Zhang to come first. ”

When Zhang Xu heard this, he didn't shirk it, and blurted out: "Zhizhang rides a horse like a boat, and his eyes fall into the bottom of the well." ”

Zhang Xu finished reciting the first sentence, so Ye Wuwu then chanted the second sentence: "Ruyang Sandou began to face the sky, and the road was salivating at the mouth of the Quche, and the hatred was sealed to Jiuquan." ”

"Zuo Xiangri spends 10,000 dollars, drinks like a long whale sucking a hundred rivers, and holds a cup of music and is called avoiding sages."

"Zongzhi is a chic and beautiful young man, looking at the blue sky with white eyes, as bright as a jade tree in front of the wind."

"Before Su Jin Changzhai embroidered Buddha, he often loved to escape Zen when he was drunk."

"Li Baidou has 100 poems about wine, the restaurant in Chang'an City sleeps, the Son of Heaven can't get on the boat, and he claims to be a fairy in wine."

"Zhang Xu's three cups of grass sage, taking off his hat and revealing his crown in front of the prince, waving the paper like a cloud of smoke."

"Jiao Sui Wudou Fang Zhuoran, talking eloquently and shocking four feasts."

"Hah! Ha! Ha! Good one's hat off in front of the prince, talking eloquently and shockingly. 'I tell you both to take off your hats and kneel before me today!' ”
