Chu Qingliu said: "If you can run but don't run, you have to be hit by the board, which is also very strange." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "Uncle Zhang will take care of his stick injury, find Uncle Wu and Yao Sizong, and say that he is going to leave the Great Song Dynasty and go to the Great Xia Kingdom to seek a way forward, and ask the two of them if they are willing to go together." At this time, you know why he refused to run away and was willing to be beaten, right? After this beating, he really lost his heart, and he no longer had to think that he could still contribute to the Zhao family. Speaking of which, keep an eye on Chu Qingliu and take a look.

Chu Qingliu said: "Very good, the tree is dead, and the person is alive." Da Song refuses to use me, and Da Xia may not be either, so you can give it a try. ”

Qu Lingyu said: "You forget, the Great Song Dynasty is the state of his parents, and Great Xia is the life and death rival of the Great Song Dynasty." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "Chu has no talents, the Jin State will benefit from it, and the Wu State will become a hegemon." King Yan lost his trust, so Le Yi went to Chu to be an official. At the time of the Warring States Period, there were so many such things that I could not count them, so what was so strange? In the current situation, many countries in the world coexisted, and it was just another Warring States. ”

"If the king is not right, the minister will go to another country, the father will not be merciful, and the son will go to another country. What's more, this Mr. Zhang is just a fallen person, who wants to be a courtier and lackey for the Zhao official family in Tokyo City, and everyone dislikes and refuses to ask for it. Senior sister, you said that the two of us are enemies, is that for this? You also underestimate me too much, I am not a showy and sour ding, a winter baking wood head. Your Zhao official family refuses to want me to be a slave, so I will go to be a slave for others, mix a mouthful of food, and never let myself starve to death, this Mr. Zhang did a good job. ”

Qu Lingyu said: "Yao Sizong said that he will not go, he was born as a person of the Great Song Dynasty, and died as a ghost of the Great Song Dynasty." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "Fart, if Zhao Song is destroyed, he can really cut off his head and die with Zhao Song?" No matter how good he says, I still don't believe it." If this is the case, in the five generations, a country will be destroyed in a few years, and everyone in the world will have to die with it?"

Qu Lingyu said: "Uncle Wu still refuses to give up, so he said, before going to Great Xia, you might as well think of another way to try." If they can't succeed again, the Zhao Song official family still doesn't look down on them, that is, they have no chance with the Great Song Dynasty in this life, and they are in the wrong place. Don't say it's Great Xia, it's the Great Liao, Tubo, Uighur Dali, and even outside the Western Regions, you can go anywhere. Uncle Zhang agreed, and Yao Sizong also promised to try again with him, but said that even if he couldn't succeed and no one looked at him, he still had to stay in the Great Song Dynasty. Chu Qingliu said: "Loyal ministers and filial sons." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "They got a big bluestone, smoothed one side, and asked the stonemason to engrave a poem written by one of them on it, as well as twenty-one strategies, and I don't know what the policies are." Chu Qingliu said: "It is to give advice to the emperor's family, at best, it is how to govern the country and level the world, and at worst, it is how to keep the emperor's family from bad for thousands of years, so that the poor people can make cattle and horses for them for generations." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "It turns out that this is called strategy, it seems that the scholars are really more useful than us." Chu Qingliu said with a smile: "You want to study for the top prize, it's still too late, but it's a pity that people don't let women be officials." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "If you ask me to be an official, I may not be willing to go, let alone what books I have to read." There are a lot of words engraved on the big stone, and I can't remember so much, but I only remember a poem by Uncle Zhang, called the title parrot, you listen well, I have to read: the heart is lazy and does not talk about human affairs, and the cold branches are alone. So that the golden cage is packed up, and don't fly into other people's houses. ”

The words and sentences are not difficult to understand, but Qu Lingyu also explained in detail, saying: "They want to recommend themselves to the generals, but they feel that it is very embarrassing to send them to the door to recommend themselves, so they deliberately make their words vague and want people to recruit them first." Senior brother, do you say this poem is good?" seemed to be afraid that Chu Qingliu would not be able to say it.

Chu Qingliu said: "I don't understand poetry, but it seems to be a little stingy." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "The question of a parrot can be written like this, and it can't be said to be stingy." At the junction of Song and Xia, there are many people who can recite this poem. If you want to hear the atmosphere, you will have it right away. ”

They hired two carts and a group of men to erect the bluestone on one cart and walk in front, while the three sat in the back car and drank, while the gang followed the cart and cried. Chu Qingliu said: "It's best to hire those who specialize in crying and mourning, and then let them blow and blow, so that it will be lively." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "The group walked towards the camp of the Song army, and when they came to the camp gate, a lot of people had gathered, and a leader came to read the words on the big bluestone, and returned to the camp to report. ”

Chu Qingliu said: "It's good to get rid of this, if I am a border general, I will arrest them all and cut them all." ”

Qu Lingyu was puzzled: "What is the reason for this?"

Chu Qingliu said: "Even if you count a hexagram, it can be said that it disturbs the people's hearts, and it can be beaten to half death, so that a group of people come to the border military camp and cry in front of the village, can't it be said that they want to steal the camp and rob the village in disguise?"

Qu Lingyu said: "It seems that you are very good at being an official, but unfortunately you have entered the rivers and lakes." The three of them were driven out by others, and threw the cart and the green stones, so Uncle Zhang and Uncle Wu turned around and walked west, saying that if they went to Daxia, they would go to Daxia. ”

"Walking to the place of Shentang Fort on the border, it is only less than ten miles away from the Great Xia Kingdom, Uncle Wu said that it will be difficult to drink the wine of the Song Realm in the future, but you have to drink a lot. The two of them entered the wine shop, and you drank a bowl of wine and I drank a bowl of wine, and no one would say a word. ”

Chu Qingliu said: "A person, if he is not forced to the extreme, there is no way to live, there is no way, no one will leave their relatives and go to another country." ”

"When I got drunk, it was getting late, but it wasn't dark yet. Uncle Wu said, don't go, spend the night at Shentang Fort tonight, and leave tomorrow. Uncle Zhang must refuse, and he must walk overnight. ”

Chu Qingliu sighed: "It doesn't matter if you live on the spot, or if you don't stay overnight, it's all sad in your heart." Thinking about it, it was better than the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when it was so difficult to be a man in the world. Confucius was a native of the Lu country, and he took a group of people to travel around the world to seek officials, and no one said that he didn't say a word, and he himself was very happy. ”

"Wu Zixu fled from the Chu State, and the Song State, who went first, couldn't stay. If you go to Zheng Guo again, you won't stay long, there is no way but to go to Wu Guo. Along the way, there were first Donggao Gong, Huangfu Ne Yizhu, and then there were fishermen ferrying across the river, and there were also Huansha women to guide the way, and committed suicide to help him succeed, and even the heavens made him white-headed overnight and mixed up with Zhaoguan. To this day, there are still people who make up this incident into a drama to sing, and no one says that he is wrong, why is it so difficult to leave the Great Song Dynasty to make a living elsewhere today?"

stood up and said: "Is it possible that if you are born in the Great Song Dynasty, you have to die in the Great Song Dynasty, and you have to work hard for his Zhao official family, be a cow and a horse?

Chu Qingliu has been lonely since he was a child, but after meeting Wu Baoqi, he was proud of everything, and he was already famous at a young age. He was able to hold grievances for Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao, purely because of the injustice of the world, not to vent the grievances in his chest.

Qu Lingyu didn't expect Chu Qingliu to be so angry, he was very surprised, and said softly: "Senior brother, sit down and listen to me tell you carefully." After a while, he said: "That is, they don't have much money left, so they took it all out, bought two large jars of wine, and bought a lot of meat and vegetables to drink." One person hugged a jar of wine, and the other took a bag of meat, wanting to drink it all the way to the Great Xia Kingdom. Chu Qingliu praised: "Okay, this is the spirit!"

Qu Lingyu said: "After walking three or four miles of road, as soon as I looked up, I saw a small temple on the hillside of the road, and there was no flagpole in the courtyard around it, so it was only a desolate and desolate black hut standing on the hillside. The two of them, who still wanted to go to the temple at that time? After walking more than ten steps, I saw a big stone tablet set up on the side of the road, and there were three big characters of Xiangwang Temple written on it. When Uncle Zhang saw it, he burst into tears, turned around and walked towards the small temple, and Uncle Wu followed. ”

"Uncle Zhang has never been willing to say these things, my father will say something, and if I pester Uncle Wu, he will also say something. I will know such details when I make it around. ”

"The small temple doesn't even have a door, there is only a small standing stone statue of King Xiang in it, and the room is dim at this time, and the two of them are all drunk, and they don't look at which dynasty and generation this stone statue is, when and who left it. Chu Qingliu said: "No matter when you stay, it is the people who are grateful to the overlord of Western Chu, so they will raise money to build a temple to support, whether you see it or not, whether you know it or not, there is no difference." ”

Uncle Zhang stopped drinking and stood there crying at King Xiang. When I saw enough, I put down the wine and meat, took out the pen and ink in my arms, and inscribed a poem on the wall. He took out his dagger and wrote on the ground:

"The king of Qin is vague, and Liu Xiangqi annexes. The children of Jiangdong took pity on the king and advanced alone. Destroy Qin, save the Han with all benevolence, and the major event will be determined in three years. Once Chen Cang's soldiers came out, there was a song chaos. When a strong man goes, a beautiful woman dies, what joy is there in life, and what is there to fear in death. Please fight quickly for you, don't look back, don't look back. ”

Chu Qingliu read it twice and said: "If you can write such words, you can't be a jinshi of his Zhao official family, and it can only be said that the sky makes people." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "Uncle Zhang threw away the pen and ink, took out the iron flute on his waist to play, blow for a break, sing for a break, and then cry for a while. Uncle Wu also sang along and cried together. He happened to pass by under the hillside, and he was very moved to hear it, so he went to the temple to see, and he entered the temple, and saw the inscription on the wall, and sang along. Anyway, there is no fixed tune, you can sing how you like, not so much singing, but shouting and screaming. My father and Uncle Wu later said that when people are young, they are very good at doing stupid things. ”

On this night, the three of them drank wine, ate meat, played the flute, sang songs, danced swords, and told the grievances in their hearts in the Xiangwang Temple, and became friends ever since. On the fifth watch, the three broke up, their father returned to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, and the two uncles Zhang and Wu went west to Great Xia. At that time, there was no Qu Lingyu yet. When they arrived in Western Xia, in Xingqing City, they met the respected teacher again, that is, Uncle Wu on my side. Senior brother, I've talked about this for a long time, and you can also tell me something about yourself. ”

Chu Qingliu said: "I don't have anything to say about it---- what do you want to hear, just ask, if you don't want to be too complicated, I'll say it." I haven't been as as Mr. Zhang and Mr. Wu, but I haven't done anything extremely happy. ”

Qu Lingyu said: "Just talk about your childhood, your father-in-law, if you want, then talk about Wanghaizhuang." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "A lot of my affairs are based on speculation, and I don't know how true it is." I was originally a person on the edge of Huainan White Horse Lake, and you will know if you have seen it in the future, it is a big lake. I don't know if it was when I was two years old or when I was three years old, it was summer, and my parents took me to the lake. I thought it was my father rocking the boat at the back end, and my mother hooked it off the bow of the boat. ”

"In the summer, the sky changes, and there is a gust of wind for no reason. At that time, there happened to be a fleet of ships passing over the lake, and they said that there was a big mast as thick as the mouth of a sea bowl, and when the wind passed, it was split in two, and it was not like the wind had passed, but a demon dragon had crossed, and the big mast was swept up by the dragon's tail, and it would break. The fine tung oil sails were all torn into pieces, and the thick pieces of cloth the size of the door panel flew like a leaf when they met the wind, and could never fall again. They had a big ship, and they gathered together early, so that there was no sinking. ”

"My family's boat is small, it can't be carried, my parents have fallen into the river, and I don't know whether to die or live. ”

Qu Lingyu said: "The people on the edge of the lake are very good in water, senior brother, they won't die." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "The children of the boat family, when there is no one to take care of them on the boat, in order to prevent them from falling into the water, they usually have to be tied to the boat with a strap. Maybe my parents couldn't bear to tie me up, but they tied me to a big gourd with tung oil, and left a few feet of strap, which saved my life. When the fleet arrived, they saw me holding the gourd in the water, so they scooped me up. After looking for a long time, I couldn't find my parents anymore, so I had to take them with me. ”

Qu Lingyu said: "Senior brother, your life is so hard, even the demon dragon is afraid of you." Did you go back to your parents later?"

Chu Qingliu said: "I've gone back to look for it a few times, my father-in-law, my master, and me have all gone back to look for it, but I just can't find it." ”

Qu Lingyu said: "Senior brother, you can rest assured, I will let the people of White Horse Lake investigate carefully, I am not afraid that I will not find out." ”

Chu Qingliu said: "At that time, my father-in-law failed the scientific examination, and he was already on the dock to take care of the accounts for others. He lived alone on the dock before he married, and most of the sailors on the ship were bachelors, so where would he take care of the children? On the top of the big gourd, the word Chu Ji was written, and my father-in-law gave me the life of Chu Qingliu. He said that it is not easy for us who sail to make a living, and compared with others, they add three points of danger, and they are named Qingliu and begging for praise. ”

"My father-in-law seems to have passed the examination for a term, and he also went to Tokyo City to take the exam, but he must have never passed the Jinshi examination. He is a person who is easy to talk about everything, but he can't talk to him about raising people and jinshi, and if he mentions it, he will definitely turn his face. He himself can mention it as much as he likes. ”
