Chapter 64: The Dispute over the Thousand Golden Books
"Brother Meng, look over there."
Meng Xing controlled the horses and followed the team slowly, and then returned to Zhongzhou City, watching the flowers all the way.
Beside him, there were five scholars with whom he had a rough name, Qian, Quan, Jiang, Feng, and Ma, who also rode horses transferred by the Wang family and followed the rear of the team.
On both sides are samurai to open the way, and in front and behind are knight guards, ensuring that the road is unimpeded.
If they hadn't met Wang Junhong at the dock and were invited by her, they wouldn't have been able to enjoy such treatment.
However, seeing the Golden Eagle Knight of the Eagle Master's Mansion walking side by side with Wang Junhong in front of him, talking and laughing, I don't know why, it made several young scholars full of interest from the beginning, and became boring, so they could only watch the scenery of Zhongzhou City and chat to relieve the unhappiness in their hearts.
In the team, Wang Qiaoyan turned around several times under the pretext of passing by Meng Xing, intentionally or unintentionally stopping for a moment, which made Meng Xing tense his spirit from time to time.
He was impressed by the unruly woman who stretched out his feet and stumbled over him, and knew that this woman might already be suspicious of him, so he came over to spy on him several times.
Fortunately, after several times, the other party was not sure.
Being able to escape the sixth sense of a woman also made Meng Xing greatly relieved, he has grown a little taller recently, otherwise I am afraid he will not be able to hide it.
When Wang Qiaoyan rode a little farther, Qian Shusheng whispered:
"I also went to the Beiliang Frontier, and the locals all looked similar to the Golden Eagle Knight, and there were also beautiful women who were not inferior to our water towns."
"That Golden Eagle Knight is obviously a half-blood, and his appearance is very different from ours, which is also rare."
"Hey, no matter what, this person is the general of the imperial court, so he has great prestige, and he actually asked Fairy Junhong to greet him at the dock, which can be seen from the Wang family's attitude towards him."
"Hmph, when we are admitted to the Jinshi in the future, the Wang family will not dare to slack off."
After chatting for a few words, they turned the topic to the grand event of the Qianjin Book, and Qian Shusheng suddenly asked the silent Meng Xing:
"Brother Meng, what do you think of the Qianjin Book?"
“……”
The content of the book of thousands of gold is widely circulated, it is not a secret, Meng Xing has also seen it, and he also knew from the mouths of several scholars the reason why the Wang family held the event of the book of thousands of gold, so he said:
"The golden book is concise, and it is difficult to add or lose a word in it, and if it is changed...... It's also not small, if not greater. ”
What he said was undoubtedly correct nonsense, but Qian Shusheng agreed:
"Changing a word is far more paradoxical than increasing or losing a word, Xu Xian Xu Mingtao threatened to change one of the words, it is to correct mistakes, could it be that his knowledge is still above the sages?"
"Everyone says that Xu Xian's literary talent is the first in Zhongnan Province, but now it seems that I can't agree."
"Oh...... Could it be that there are more famous scholars in Zhongnan Province than Xu Xian? ”
"It's not necessarily famous to be famous, but talented is it." Qian Shusheng said with a smile: "I, Qian Qianyi, may not be more talented than Xu Xian." ”
"......" The rest of the people burst into laughter: "Qian Qianyi, you are so crazy!" ”
Meng Xing also smiled, and Qian Qianyi said, "Brother Meng doesn't agree either?" ”
Meng Xing laughed: "I agree with some of them, but I don't fully agree with them, if you want to say that the most talented, who else in the world will be me?" Of course, I have to be. ”
“…… Hahaha! The rest of the people laughed wildly: "What a Meng scholar!" What a world to give up with! With this sentence, I will admit you today. ”
A few people bragged, so cheerful.
Wang Junhong, who also won the front of the movement here, looked back frequently, and Qian Qianyi and the others were like little roosters that attracted the attention of the little hen, and they were very proud.
Meng Xing was laughing while reflecting the surroundings, eavesdropping on the conversation between Wang Junhong and the Golden Eagle Knight in front of him.
Meng Xingyun used the reflection of the mental method, and at the same time, the Golden Eagle Knight in front of him seemed to feel it, but his spiritual sense probed into it, but he didn't find anything.
Odd!
How did he know that the method in Meng Xing's reflection heart requires a state of tranquility and emptiness, only the emptiness and emptiness in the heart, the more things will enter from the outside world, just like a reflective mirror, the more things can be seen.
Theoretically, the scope of the reflection is unlimited, but Meng Xing has come back to life, as long as he is alive, all kinds of thoughts will come to him, and there are thoughts at every moment, so his "degree of nothingness" is also limited, and the scope of the reflection has a limit.
At this time, with all his strength, he could only see about 500 meters around, and there was chaos in the distance.
However, this kind of ability is already very remarkable, silent, moisturizing things silently, at this time, within a range of five hundred meters, any wind and grass is in Meng Xing's heart.
The source of such snooping is not the eyes, the ear, nor the spiritual tentacles of the soul, nor the induction and echo of the gods, but the eyes and thoughts are tangible, and there are traces to follow, which can be traced.
Although the Heroic Spirit and Yin God are magical, they may still be discovered when they fly out.
And the source of Meng Xing's reflection is nothingness, nothingness is something that is not there, and what is not has no source, how can it be discovered.
The Golden Eagle Knight can be aware of it, and his intuition can be called very sharp, but in the final analysis, it is still Meng Xing's lack of skill.
Although the Golden Eagle Knight did not find the source of the snooping, he also became very vigilant.
What Meng Xing can hear is really limited.
In public, Wang Junhong and the Golden Eagle Knight mostly talk to each other politely and complimentarily, and do not discuss sensitive topics, showing that the two are actually very unfamiliar.
Because of Wang Junhong, the Golden Eagle Knight ushered in the hostility of Qian Qianyi and others who shared the same hatred, which was actually a great wrong.
And the seemingly polite conversation between the two can actually peek into some of the inner emotions of both parties, and some of the words hidden in the two make Meng Xing realize:
The follow-up caused by a fire in the purple bamboo forest seems to have spread to other battlefields.
And what is related to all this is probably the Mo Holy Order.
Meng Xingzheng pondered, and after a while, the team stopped, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the Wang family had arrived.
Needless to say, the high-walled compound occupies the southeast corner of Zhongzhou City, stretching for an unknown number of kilometers.
The cars and horses in front of the door were flowing, and when I saw Wang Junhong coming back, a large number of Ding Haonu came to greet him.
Someone led Meng Xing and a few people to a chic courtyard to settle down, but they were separated from the Eagle Master's Mansion and his party.
The family with Meng Xing and a few people said with a smile: "A few of them are the distinguished guests of the eldest lady, so they are arranged in this area, and when the Qianjinshu banquet begins, it is also very close to here." ”
"Thank you."
After settling down, Qian Qianyi and the others couldn't stay, and invited Meng Xing to go to Zhongzhou City to take a walk, saying that it was to see the evening style here.
However, judging from their eyebrows and dancing expressions, it is not difficult to guess that they are going to visit the Qinglou and drink flower wine, which is also the self-cultivation of scholars.
Although Meng Xing was about to move, this trip was to enter the Wang family, and the Wang family was not a friend to him, so he didn't dare to be careless when he went behind the enemy, and was ready to touch the bottom of the Wang family first.
Meng Xing could only refuse the invitation of Qian Qianyi and others on the grounds that he was tired from the journey, and sweated alone in the room on a cool night in the autumn breeze.
Since the last time he met Zizhu Gongzi, Meng Xing knew that although the imperial court heroic spirit and the outer yin god were sharp, they could not sweep the world, and there were many outstanding geniuses in the martial arts, who could use their bodies and sharp weapons to fight against the heroic spirit and the yin god.
Therefore, Meng Xing did not dare to be careless, and slowly operated the momentum, supplemented by the eyes of the Heroic Spirit and the ears of the Heroic Spirit, and slowly expanded the scope of the reflection in his heart.
And he himself, like a pair of emotionless eyes from heaven, quietly watched the changes in the reflection and checked the patterns.
With the small courtyard where Meng Xing is located as the center, a large picture is slowly born in my heart, extending, outward, outward.
Meng Xing imported the scene he could see, the layout of the Wang family's courtyard, into the system in every detail, and gradually generated a three-dimensional map, no matter what he planned to do here in the future, he was prepared.
Every time you go to a new place, it is necessary to observe the terrain and prepare for the back road.
In addition to these, Meng Xing is also paying attention to everyone in the reflection range, and from their conversations, words and deeds, things can be seen more directly, including identity, position, and attitude towards the Wang family.
In the vicinity where Meng Xing lived, this area seemed to be the area where the Wang family placed guests, and most of the scholars who lived nearby were from other places, and from their conversations, it was not difficult to find that Xu Xian was generally skeptical about Xu Xian's ability to change the word in the Qianjin Book...... and disobedience.
Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second, the more famous Xu Xian is, the more many people are not convinced.
At this time, Meng Xing noticed that in a courtyard to the east, several scholars were arguing fiercely, and among them, there were books printed with the contents of the Qianjin Book.
Several people are spitting over one of them, fighting for it.
"As we all know, the Qianjin Book is all-encompassing, it is a collection of many sages, the essence of the genre, but this book has never been liked by the imperial court, just because the concept of governing the country in the Qianjin Book includes the concept of appointing the virtuous, choosing the phase, and opposing the centralization of power, so the emperors of all dynasties and generations hate it!"
One person said excitedly: "However, this book is exactly what we and other scholars should maintain, if the emperor covers the sky with one hand, what else do we need to do as scholars?" What imperial examinations do we take and what officials do we do? Above the court, it is not as convenient as placing a few puppets! ”
“…… Brother Lu, don't be loud! Others hurriedly persuaded: "Xu Xian Xu Mingtao may not be to change the original intention of the golden book." ”
"If you don't want to change the original meaning of the golden book, you can add words or subtract words, it's just that the level is worse and better, what waves can there be? And this word change is promising! ”
The person known as Brother Lu said categorically:
"Everyone, look at it, I can release this: Xu Xian must have shocked the world with such fanfare before the Spring Festival, I think he wants to openly flatter the court and the emperor, and exchange for the champion position in one fell swoop!"
Several other scholars objected categorically: "...... Why did Brother Lu say such a heart-wrenching remark because he was jealous of Xu Xian's talent? With Xu Xian's talent, there is no need to do these things at all, and he is the most popular candidate for the top of the current department! ”
"Not bad! Brother Lu's words spread out, I'm afraid that someone will laugh off his big teeth! ”
The scholar surnamed Lu kept sneering: "Jealous? I, Lu Tiansheng, am naturally arrogant, and I have never doubted my talent, so why be jealous of others! ”
“……”
Lu Tiansheng said again: "The Wang family has kept the original of the Qianjin Book for generations, and its ambition is clear, but this time it is really unexpected that he is willing to take out the original Qianjin Book in order to cooperate with Xu Xian's momentum!" Could it be that the Wang family has changed their ambitions and wants to completely throw themselves into the imperial court......
The scholars around Lu Tiansheng were all shocked, and they didn't care about the faux pas, and went directly to cover Lu Tiansheng's mouth:
“…… This is the Wang family, you don't want to live, we still want to live! ”
