Chapter 15: Spring and Autumn

There was no war after the Spring and Autumn period.

After the two masters of Qiliang and Northern Wei signed an agreement in Qijiang, they were at peace with each other for sixteen years.

And over the years, it seems that Qijiang is not as peaceful as before.

In the sixteenth year of the Spring and Autumn Period, Chen Wanjuan, the only son of the Northern Wei Dynasty champion, climbed to the top of the Lanling City Palace, and won the first place in the world's evaluation list in one fell swoop.

The young Confucian who overwhelmed the countless literary critics and demons in Qiliang Jiangnan Province left Lanling City alone in the silence above and below Qiliang.

On the same day, the hundred officials of Lanling City took off their hats and went to the main hall to ask for their guilt.

His Majesty of Qi Liang just smiled and looked at the officials who came from the Lanling City Palace, and now they are the mainstay of the official road in Qiliang, most of them are still young, thanks to the calligraphy cultivation of Jiangnan Province, they once had a place on the literary review list.

Of course, Xiao Wang knew what kind of crime they were asking for.

Qi Liang Wendao suppressed the Northern Wei Dynasty for 16 years.

Eventually I will be ashamed.

These officials who couldn't kneel down for a long time were all from the readers on the literary review list, worried that they would be annoyed and angry, and it would be difficult to suppress the killing machine, so that the descendants of the Northern Wei Dynasty champion Hou would pay the price for their actions of provoking the entire Qi Liang.

They were afraid that Chen Wanjuan, who won the first place in the Lanling City Palace Examination...... In the end, he died on the way back to Wei.

Then Qi Liang will really lose face.

Fortunately, Xiao Wang didn't think that this was a scandalous thing to swallow in his stomach, and Qi Liang still raised his flag as in previous years to welcome those Jiangnan Dao talents on the literary review list.

It's just that there are ten people in the world of literary criticism in previous years, and there are only nine people in Qi Liang this year.

The nine young Jiangnan Dao scholars who saw His Majesty were full of longing, and after entering the hall, they quickly looked around, looking at the seniors who had become famous in the court, and most of their eyes were filled with irrepressible joy after the fish jumped over the dragon gate.

There is only one exception.

After entering the hall, the young man only glanced around quickly, then kept his eyebrows lowered, occasionally raised his eyes, and caught a glimpse of the empty position of the national teacher, and his eyes flashed imperceptibly fluctuations, like pity, like loss, and then lowered his head again.

He is neither happy nor angry, neither angry nor angry, neither arrogant nor impatient.

The emotions in the eyes of people are elusive, and the nine talented people who have made it to the list have more or less deliberately buried the joy in their hearts.

And this man didn't.

Xiao Wang could see that he didn't feel anything to be happy about at all.

So after retiring from the dynasty, Xiao Wang left this young man behind.

......

......

"Qi Shu. Xiao Wang whispered his name.

This young man was neither humble nor arrogant, his hands folded in front of him, and he just waved the most insipid courtier's courtesy.

Silent.

"In the world's comments, you are ranked tenth. Xiao Wang looked at the young man with a smile: "You were born in a cold and hard, hungry for 20 years, and now you are on the list, and you are destined to rise in the future. ”

His Majesty paused: "Why are you unhappy in your heart?" ”

Qi Shu raised his sleeves slightly, bowed, raised his hands to his eyebrows, and looked down at the ground.

He had waited for twenty years, and finally waited for this opportunity.

He doesn't want to be a blockbuster, he just wants to be able to sell what he has learned to those who know talents.

When Qi Shu entered the court, his heart was half cold, and he never thought that the national teacher, who had no leakage of talents, would be absent when he was commenting on the major events of the temple.

Also.

Qi Liang was crushed by the Northern Wei Dynasty Confucianism and Taoism, how could the national teacher enter the palace?

Qi Shu thought that his talent was about to be buried, that His Majesty gave an official position at will, how big is Qi Liang's Nineteen Dao, can he enter the palace again in his life, or get such a good opportunity as today?

There is no reason to feel cold.

He was going to stay in the main hall after retiring from the court, but he didn't expect His Majesty to take the initiative to leave him.

So Qi Shu cleared his throat and said calmly: "Your Majesty, even if you don't stay today, the minister will risk death to stay." ”

Xiao Wang smiled and looked at the young man who couldn't bow down: "Do you really think I'm blind?"

Qi Shu's hands hidden under his big sleeves couldn't help but tremble.

He didn't sleep all night, and he thought of countless sets of rhetoric over and over again in his mind, just to see each other today and be able to convince the other party, but now ...... I don't know what to say.

His voice trembled a little, and he said, "Your Majesty......"

Xiao Wang chuckled softly.

"Today, there are only you and I in front of the temple. Xiao Wang suddenly coughed in a low voice, covered his face with his sleeve, and said vaguely: "Before leaving, the national teacher left a word, saying that you can be of great use, but I want to see what kind of use you can have?"

The young man at the end of the review was already in tears.

He slowly knelt down and bowed the greatest prostration.

was helped up by Xiao Wang, who was demoted.

Qi Shu was a little unsteady for a while, so he could only take out a worn-out green scroll from his sleeve with the support of His Majesty, densely packed, some ink stains that had just dried up, and he had been preparing for this day for too long.

"The national teacher is in front of the pearl and jade, Qi is not talented, and in his life, he can only learn three or four things from the national teacher. The young man's voice was hoarse, and he said word by word extremely hard: "Qi Shu knows that he can't govern the country; Qi Shu doesn't know how to check and balance officials; and Qi Shu doesn't know how to do it with the emperor's mental tricks." ”

Officialdom is walking on thin ice, who doesn't know trembling?

This young man is open-mouthed, and he actually tells it all like this?

And Xiao Wang quipped: "You can't do any of these things between the monarch and the minister, and you have the audacity to say that you can have three or four things that Yuan Tiangang has learned?"

Half joking, half good-natured ridicule.

Qi Shu actually laughed at himself, "The National Teacher is a rare all-rounder in the world, and he can learn three or four things, and Qi Shu is already satisfied." ”

There is no shame at all.

He suddenly restrained his smile, was extremely conceited, and said extremely seriously: "If I live in Beigusu Road, then the Great Xia Frontier can retreat half a hundred miles within a year. If I live in the south of the Qi River, then the north of the Qi River in the Northern Wei Dynasty, at least 200,000 more soldiers will be stationed in one month. ”

Xiao Wang looked at the dense green scroll notes written by the young man.

Thirty-six kinds of killing techniques, at least a thousand people are killed, and the serial strategy is inevitably suspicious on paper, but it is really real and makes people's scalp tingle.

Bingdao.

He suddenly remembered that there was an extremely extreme test paper written by Zhang in Qi Liang's literary commentary, which was empty except for the military path, and he got an exceptionally high score.

Qi Shu ......

Forgiveness!

Xiao Wang coughed sullenly again, looking at this young man, his face was thin, his eyebrows were raised, and he couldn't help but be weak, but it was obviously the face of a soldier killing an embryo.

Soldiers lead the troops, but the gun picks one person, and the Confucian leader leads the troops, and he can kill 10,000 people.

Xiao Wang looked at this young man, and suddenly remembered Lu Lao, who was praised as a soldier saint in the Spring and Autumn Period.

He said softly: "Qi Shu, I promise you that in the future, Qi Liang will have a time when you will shine. ”

Qi Shu was slightly stunned.

"But not now. ”

Looking at the green scroll, the young man in the world was a little puzzled, the matter of Luoyang had been transmitted to Qi Liang, the Fucang agreement was torn off, Qi Liang and the Northern Wei Dynasty were obviously ready to fight, and sooner or later a battle, and the Northern Wei Dynasty was now the time of heavy damage, only to arrive at the northern border fortress city similar to Torrent City, whether it was a surprise attack or a positive attack, Qi Liang would take the lead and advantage.

Qi Shu raised his head and was stunned to see the bloodstains on His Majesty's sleeve.

I don't know when I coughed it out, and I didn't have time to wipe it.

Xiao Wang smiled and put his hands behind his back, but in fact, he slightly hid half of his dirty sleeves, and said softly: "You can see it? ”

Qi Shu understood what His Majesty meant.

"If you treat me as a countryman, I will repay you as a countryman. He whispered softly, "Qi Shu can wait." ”

Xiao Wang smiled, "It's really not as serious as you think, if there is a Northern Expedition of Qi Liang one day, there is no problem even if you go on the horse in person." I know what you mean, it's just that the Northern Wei Dynasty is not as hurtful as it seems, and now that the war starts, Qi Liang can't bargain. ”

Qi Shu, who didn't hear about the cultivation and didn't know that the wind and snow silver city had entered the world, certainly didn't know why.

He bowed his head slightly.

"You can stay in Lanling City. Xiao Wang smiled, "Qi Liang has always been one scholar and one martial artist in the army, do you dare to match that Tsing Yi god general?"

Qi Shu smiled and asked calmly, "Why don't you dare?"

"Good. ”

His Majesty narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "I promise you that one day, the world will remember your name of Qi Shu. ”

After Qi Shu retreated from the palace.

Xiao Wang smiled, and there was another sudden violent cough, and even coughed up blood from his heart and lungs.

He climbed to the top of the sky pavilion alone, and the national teacher was not in Lanling City.

Xiao Wang looked around at Qi Liang in a daze.

There was no one around.

His three sons have all grown up.

"I knew that day would come sooner or later. He laughed a little self-deprecatingly and said, "I will be old, but everyone will be old." ”

This half of the Central Plains master is actually a little lonely.

"But I didn't expect time to pass so quickly. ”

Some heart knots have not yet been opened.

There are some things that I don't know if I have a chance to say.

But there was no way.

Born in the family of emperors, there are some things that are destined to be sacrificed.

Xiao Wang muttered, "She's such a strange person. Even the predestined and crowned adulthood is different from the world, it is eighteen years old, and both the unrepentant and the unenvious have already received their words......"

"Too fast......"

"It's really fast......"

"I haven't spoken to you much yet. The corners of His Majesty's eyes were a little moist, and he muttered, "I don't know if I have a chance to tell you her story." ”

......

......

Picking the stars and the moon, the Mo family is an immortal, and the first person in Confucianism and Taoism in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Chen Wanjuan, who returned to the Northern Wei Dynasty, was overwhelmingly touted.

The literary review covers the entire Qi Liang, what a big deal?

And Chen Wanjuan, who stole the limelight of the world's scholars, immediately retreated in Luoyang, and there was no more news.

The Northern Wei Dynasty touted Chen Wanjuan, but Chen Wanjuan did not accept it.

Qi Liang and Northern Wei were opposed across the river and kept silent about each other.

And the sixteenth year of the Spring and Autumn Calendar, which has been recorded in the history books, seems to be silent in the second half of the year.

Those demons in the floating world, born and ugly, all appeared in the sixteen-year calendar.

Qi Liang, the reincarnated Bodhisattva who entered the Luoyang Buddha Road.

The Suzaku demon woman who is out of the chess palace.

Wang Xuezhai who entered the WTO in the hidden valley.

Li Changge of Wind and Snow Silver City.

The elder brother of the Dao Fetus of the Final Tower.

These young demons seem to have a tacit understanding and have chosen to remain silent.

But maybe one day, someone will have a whim.

Thinking of such a question -

In the second half of the sixteen-year calendar that was taken by the barnyard officials, no major events occurred, what is the reason?

The beads are strung into a thread, and each demon seems to be a bead, and in the future, it will be the most eye-catching rivers and lakes in the Central Plains for thousands of years.

And the second half of the sixteen-year calendar that has been brought by a dull sum may be because of ......

The thread that strings up the beads is no longer in the Central Plains.
