On this day, Chen Zuyi called Li Sui to the hall.

"Strategist, look at how we should capture the Great Yu Kingdom." Chen Zuyi pointed to the map and asked Li Sui.

Since Li Sui and Jin An joined the Black Pearl Pirate Regiment, Jin An was appointed as the "Naval Governor", specializing in the daily military training of the army. And Li Sui was appointed as a "military advisor", but whenever Chen Zuyi encountered some problems, he would call Li Sui for advice.

The "Great Yu Kingdom" in Tran Zuyi's mouth refers to the Kingdom of Annam (today's Vietnam).

Speaking of Annam, we have to mention its history.

After Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, he sent a large army across Lingnan to conquer the local Baiyue tribes, and also established three counties in the local area. Since then, Annam has become Chinese territory.

However, this situation changed during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. After the Annam warlord Wu Quan launched the "Battle of the Baiteng River", he established the Wu Dynasty. and established himself as king, thus opening the prelude to Annan's secession from China.

Later, the general of Annam, Ding Buling, conquered the entire territory of Annam by force and established the Ding Dynasty. and accepted the canonization of Song Taizu and became the king of Jiaozhi County. From then on, Annam ceased to be a direct territory of China and began to become a vassal state of China.

Later, the regime in Annam continued to change, from the Li Dynasty to the Chen Dynasty. The Chen dynasty was initially subservient to the Yuan dynasty. Later, because Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew the Yuan Dynasty and established the Ming Dynasty, Annan became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty.

But the Chen Dynasty did not escape the fate of destruction. Hu Jichen, a powerful minister of the Chen Dynasty, was originally a relative of the Chen family, and later sought power and usurped the throne. After Hu Jichen ascended the throne, he changed his country name to Dayu.

The geographical location of Dayu is superior, not only bordering the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but also some small surrounding countries. Chen Zuyi understands that if he wants to further consolidate his position in Nanyang, Dayu is a place to fight.

"I don't know if the head of the regiment has heard that there are still many remnants of the Chen Dynasty who are still alive?" Li Sui said slowly.

"What does the military advisor mean to ask me to provoke the contradiction between the old man of the Chen Dynasty and Hu Jichen, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman?" What does Chen Zuyi seem to have learned from Li Sui's words?

"What? Could it be that the regiment commander thinks that just those old, weak, sick and disabled can resist Hu Jichen's army? Li Sui smiled faintly.

"What do you mean?" At this time, Chen Zuyi couldn't guess what Li Sui wanted to say. ”

"Presumably, the head of the regiment must know that Annan has always been a vassal state of the Ming Kingdom."

"It's nature." Chen Zuyi replied.

"So do you think Hu Jichen's usurpation of the throne will let Ming Guo know?"

"The military advisor means to ......" Chen Zuyi listened to Li Sui's words, and a light appeared in his eyes.

"Yes, Hu Jichen's plot to usurp the throne naturally won't let the Ming Kingdom know, because he overthrew the Chen Dynasty, which is equivalent to slapping the Ming Kingdom in the face. Commander, imagine what would happen if Ming Guo knew about this? Speaking of this, Li Sui deliberately stopped.

"If you hear this news, Ming Guo will definitely send troops. When the time comes, I will catch cicadas with praying mantises, and the yellow finch will follow. Chen Zuyi took Li Sui's words and continued to speak.

"Therefore, what the head of the regiment needs to do now is to find someone to infiltrate the Dayu Kingdom, find the remnants of the Chen Dynasty, and then escort them safely to the Ming Kingdom to meet the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, then the great thing can be accomplished."

"Hahaha...... The military advisor is really a reincarnation. Chen Zuyi seemed to see the upcoming victory and laughed.

"The head of the regiment is overrated." Li Sui also laughed.

Unlike Chen Zuyi, this is a gloomy laugh.

After the battle with Dayu, the Ming army will definitely not be the opponent of the Black Pearl Pirate Regiment, so what awaits them is only defeat. According to his understanding of Zhu Di, when he learned the news, he would definitely drive the expedition in person and cut down Dayu again. At that time, he would suggest that Chen Zuyi or other forces sneak attack the imperial capital. Then Zhu Di, the emperor, should be the end.

If nothing else, Li Sui will soon be able to complete his revenge on Zhu Di, but even Li Sui himself didn't expect that this opportunity would come so quickly.

"Master, the young master knocked Mr. unconscious with a wooden stick from behind the door, and then escaped from the door." At this time, a maid hurriedly ran in to report to Chen Zuyi.

"Hey." Listening to the maid's words, Chen Zuyi let out a long sigh.

"Didn't the head of the regiment send someone out to find Childe?" Li Sui was puzzled.

"No need, he's not like this once or twice, he'll come back when he's crazy when he goes out, every time he goes to class, it's not good to go on like this, I originally planned to let him get a fame, this rebel."

"Gain fame?" Listening to Chen Zuyi's words, Li Sui was taken aback.

"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if. It's always risky to make a living on a knife, and I can't be killed someday. So, I originally planned to send him away in another year or two so that he could live a good life with a different identity. If he can make a name for himself, he will have the ability to take care of himself if I die one day. But I didn't expect that this rebel just didn't want to study hard, and I had already changed several gentlemen. Chen Zuyi's face was stunned.

"Why don't you let me try?" Li Sui suddenly burst out with a sentence.

"The military advisor can also teach?" Listening to Li Sui's words, Chen Zuyi was taken aback.

"The Godson should be more than enough." Li Sui said confidently.

Li lived in the emperor's house, and learned the Five Classics and Six Arts from a famous teacher since he was a child, and all of them were successful. All of them were deeply loved by Zhu Yuanzhang, so after his father's death, he was immediately made the emperor's grandson. To be honest, the talent of ordinary teaching gentlemen is really not as good as Li Sui.

However, Li Sui offered to teach Chen Xiaojie to read not to show how knowledgeable and talented he was. This is not a place to stay for long, so these days, Li Sui has been trying to find a way to escape from here. And his intuition told him that teaching Chen Xiaojie to read might be an opportunity.

"But the dog is stubborn by nature, I'm afraid he won't obediently listen to your teachings." Chen Zuyi said worriedly.

"It's okay, I have my own way to deal with him."

"That's great, come on, go and bring Confucius to me to invite you." Chen Zuyi immediately commanded his subordinates.

After a while, an old man dressed in a green shirt walked in.

"Sir, you have worked hard these days, and from today onwards, the dog's homework will not bother sir. Sir, just rest in my house, and I will not lose any of the reward I promised to him. Chen Zuyi said politely to the old man.

"What does this mean, master? Could it be that he gave up Ling Gongzi's studies? Confucius wondered.

"That's not it, the dog is stubborn, I heard that today he hit Mr. again, in order to prevent similar things from happening in the future, endangering Mr.'s safety. So I specially waited for my brother to take charge of the dog's future studies. Chen Zuyi patiently explained.

Looking at Li Sui standing beside Chen Zuyi, Confucius looked suspicious: "He? Isn't the head of the family looking for old age? ”

"I wonder what the Master said?" Li Sui asked.

"At your young age, what can you learn in your belly? Wouldn't it be a mistake to let you teach? The old man's tone was full of disdain.

"Han Yu's "Teacher Said" once mentioned that before I was born, he heard the Tao before me, and I learned from him; After being born to me, he heard the Tao before me, and I learned from him. My teacher is also the way, and the husband knows that he was born in my year? Hasn't the old master even heard of this? Seems that the gentleman is really studious, huh? Li Sui sneered.

"Are you making fun of me? What a haughty boy. Do you dare to answer my three questions? If you win, the old man apologizes for what he just said. Confucius's face flushed.

"Listen up."

"Okay, first question. The winding path outside the door is fragrant, and the flowing water is murmuring. You will compose a song with the theme of "Little Bridge and Flowing Water". An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Confucius's mouth.

The reason why he came up with this topic is because the literati of the Ming Dynasty paid attention to studying the Han, Wei, and Tang dynasties, and most of the poetry genres they wrote were quatrains.

The song was originally a folk "street market order" or "village tune". With the Yuan Dynasty and the Song Dynasty entering the Central Plains, it spread successively in the vast areas of the north and south centered on Beiping and Lin'an. It is also known as "Yuanqu".

After Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, the literary form of qu gradually faded out of people's field of vision. Confucius even concluded that with Li Sui's young age, he would never have studied much of this form.

However, Li Sui was not an ordinary young man, and after he pondered for a while, a complete work came to his mind: "The breeze is full of willow sprouts, the drizzle of green embankment peach blossoms, and the shadow of wild ducks on a bank." Light smoke and secluded paths, small bridges and flowing water. ”

Although he was extremely reluctant to admit it, the artistic conception of this poem had to impress Confucius. After savoring it, it is similar to Ma Zhiyuan's "Tianjingsha Autumn Thoughts".

"Okay, you'll pass this question. The second question is to test your memory skills. Come, this is a copy of the Diamond Sutra, the full text is divided into 32 parts. I'll give you a pillar of incense, as long as you can memorize the first twenty pins. I'll pass you. ”

After speaking, Confucius took out a copy of the "Diamond Sutra" from his arms and handed it to Li Sui, and then asked Chen Zuyi to send a maid to burn an incense candle.

This Diamond Sutra was obtained by Confucius from a pirate today. When pirates go out to plunder, they sometimes find books mixed in with the booty.

Confucius was a bookworm, and he once asked Chen Zuyi to give him the books he had obtained, and since he was his son's teacher, Chen Zuyi agreed without thinking.

Li Sui took the "Diamond Sutra" in the hands of Confucius and looked at it carefully.

Confucius thought that he had won this time, and he didn't need to worry that Li Sui had read the "Diamond Sutra" before, because although Tang Xuanzong had determined that the "Filial Piety Sutra", "Tao Te Ching", and "Diamond Sutra" were the most important classics in the three religions, and personally annotated these three classics. However, since the Diamond Sutra is not the content of the imperial examination, no scholar will read it except for monks.

The Diamond Sutra is obscure, and for those who come into contact with it for the first time, it takes a lot of effort to read it. Not to mention memorizing.

And it is even more impossible to memorize the contents of twenty pins in the hour of one pillar of incense.

"You look at ...... slowly"

Li Sui's flipping speed was simply amazing, and he turned to the last page in a blink of an eye, and Confucius wanted to remind him kindly, this would definitely not work. Unexpectedly, Li Sui suddenly said, "I'm done reciting." ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Confucius, but even Chen Zuyi and the maid who were standing on the side were shocked.

Confucius looked at the incense candle, which was only more than half burned at this time, "Are you done reciting?" Are you sure? I'm talking about the content of 20 products."

"Well, but I'm not memorizing the first twenty items, but the whole book." Li Sui said something even more unbelievable.

"Boy, there has to be a limit to joking." At this time, Confucius had already concluded that Li Sui was talking nonsense at this time.

"I haven't memorized it yet, how do you know I'm joking. But it's too much time to memorize one by one, so let's do it, you say the name, I'll memorize it. Li Sui suggested.

"Okay, fifth grade." Confucius didn't believe what Li Sui said at all, and he had to rely on his actions to expose Li Sui's lies.

"Subodhi: What do you mean? Can you see each other in person? "No, World-Honored One! You can't see it as you are. Why? As it is said, the physiognomy is not the physiognomy. The Buddha told Subodhi: "All appearances are false, and if you see things that are not appearances, you will see them as they are." Li Sui memorized it fluently, and it was word for word.

"The thirteenth grade."

"At that time, Subodhi White Buddha said: 'World-honored! What is the name of this scripture, and how can we hold it? ‘…… For the sake of others, it is a blessing. ”

"First product." Confucius thought that no matter how good a person's instantaneous memory was, after such a long time, it should be forgotten, so he deliberately went the opposite way and began to check the content of the first product of the Diamond Sutra.

"As I heard, at one time, the Buddha was in the Garden of Solitude with the great bhikshus. At that time, when the world-honored one was eating, he wore clothes and held a bowl, and went into the city to beg for food. and begged in his city, and returned to this place. After eating, the mantle is collected, the feet are washed, and the seat is sitting. Unexpectedly, to Confucius's surprise, Li Sui memorized it word for word.

"Twentieth ...... A product. Confucius began to doubt his ears a little.

"Subodhi! Thou shalt not say that it is as it comes: I shall have a saying. Don't be a thought! Why? …… Sentient beings, sentient beings, if they are not sentient beings, are sentient beings. ”

"Twenty-nine pins." At this time, Confucius's hand holding the Diamond Sutra had begun to tremble.

"Subodhi! If someone says, "If you come, if you come, if you go, if you sit, if you lie down, then you don't understand what I say." Why? If you come, you have nowhere to come and nowhere to go, hence the name. Li Sui memorized it word for word.

Hearing this, Old Master Kong couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine, his legs were weak, and he almost fell down.

Oh my God, is he still human?
