"If Yang Ziqian didn't go to Qingzhou, he could be pushed to do this job." Zhang Shen said:

"among us, he is the best at it."

The mountain wind rushed into the room, blowing Chen Tai's long beard, and said with a smile, "brother Jinyan is more suitable for being an official in the court than me."

"Old man, are you mocking me for kicking the ball?" Zhang Shen is not angry, a single gesture: "you line you come, I'm all ears."

Seeing that there was going to be another quarrel, Zhang Shen's schoolboy bowed his head and walked in quickly. He bowed and said, "Sir, your student Xu cijiu has come."

Xu CI Jiu? What's he doing here? Have you copied the saint's quotations 300 times? Zhang Shen nodded: "ask him to come in."

When the schoolboy left, Zhang Shen looked at Chen Tai on the opposite side of the chessboard and said with a smile, "I've recently accepted a new student. He's Xu's cousin. He's amazing in poetry."

Li mubai immediately added: "that's my student, too."

Chen Tai looked at Zhang and Li, and then he thought, "that poet who is not worried about the way ahead without a confidant, who doesn't know you in the world?"

Li mubai and Zhang Shen smile triumphantly.

"Ha ha ha..." Chen Tai laughed and pointed at his two friends.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I laugh at you being blinded by fame and wealth, oh, and jealousy." Chen Tai stopped smiling, half admonished and half mocked:

"the name of Yang Ziqian must be due to the spread of this poem in later generations, which is really enviable. But if you two don't think about it, good sentences are rare. Many scholars have few good poems in their lives, and none of them can go down in history. "

"A sentence" don't worry about the way ahead without a confidant, who in the world doesn't know the king "is already a magic stroke. I'm glad to hear it, and I hope to have another one, no, two, so that you two can be famous forever?"

"You care too much about fame and wealth. Over time, how can the noble and healthy spirit in your stomach survive?"

Li mubai and Zhang Shen were embarrassed by the ridicule.

The bottom of my heart knows that Chen Tai's words are reasonable, and the best sentences that have been passed down through the ages can not be made casually. Besides, the other party is not a scholar. It's a great fate to get a song by chance.

To expect a petty official to write a good poem and make them famous in history is indeed a bit of paranoia.

"What you Ping said is very true." They bowed to each other and said in a deep voice: "the three immortals of scholars, even if they want to be famous in history, they should also take the main road, not the shortcut. It's me who are biased."

"If you know what's wrong, you can correct it." Chen Tai nodded slightly.

A moment later, the book boy leads Xu Qian and Xu Xinnian into the elegant room.

Two people make bow at the same time: "the student has seen the teacher."

Li mubai and Zhang Shen look at each other and are both surprised and happy with the arrival of Xu Qian.

"Sit down!" Zhang Shendao.

"Ning Yan, you come to the college because you have a good sentence to appreciate?" Li mubai tried.

Xu Qi'an shook his head and said, "students come here to ask for something."

"But it doesn't hurt to say so."

Xu Qi'an told the two teachers what he had come for and concealed his idea of retaliating against the house assistant. He only said that it was most likely that Zhou Shi Lang was behind the tax case, and that if the other party had been investigated in Beijing, he would retaliate against Xu Fu.

"This..." Li mubai looked at Zhang Shen, who was also embarrassed. He said helplessly: "the Academy forbids outsiders to stay. This is the rule."

Scholars are the most disciplined.

As soon as Xu Qian asked, he heard Xu Xinnian say, "the eldest princess does not always live in the Academy."

Zhang Shen shook his head: "what an identity the princess is."

Xu new year nodded: "the Academy forbids outsiders to stay, unless the emperor's relatives."

Hey! This lengtouqing still can't speak as usual.

The three great Confucians on the scene laughed angrily.

Xu Qian almost laughs, Erlang's poisonous tongue is still so sharp.

Li mubai shook his head. "Brother Jinyan, you are a student. I'm looking forward to his coming into life."

That's terrible... Zhang Shen takes a puff at the corner of his mouth.

Only Chen Tai looked at Xu Qi'an with a smile. At this time, he broke in and said, "are you Xu Ningyan?"

"It's the students." Xu qiru pretended to be a real reader.

"It's said that there is a lot of talent in poetry. If you can write a poem that satisfies all three of us, I'll make up my mind to let the women's family members of Xu family live in the academy and protect their integrity."

It's not the key point to allow the Xu family members to stay in the college. The key point is his last sentence to protect them.

That's what Xu Qi'an and his brothers came here for.

Xu Xinnian looks a little happy and turns to his cousin: "big brother..."

he is both happy and uneasy. It's not difficult for him to write poems. Every scholar can write neat poems. The difficulty is to satisfy the three great Confucians.

Is it hard?

It's too hard.

Writing poetry? Are you forcing me to whore you for nothing? Xu Qi'an did not immediately agree, but deliberated and said:"It's still a fixed theme to write poems with frankness."

The three great Confucians exchanged eyes with each other, and Zhang Shen said, "encourage learning!"

Sure enough, it's impossible to write a poem directly. Otherwise, I'll take out another song every minute... Xu Qi'an sighs in his heart.

At the same time, he was relieved that his literary background could cope with the problem.

The first thing that Xu Qian thought of in the word of "persuading learning" was "persuading learning" in senior high school. But since it was a poem, this ancient essay is not applicable.

There is a golden house in the book, and there is a beauty in the book!

Then the source of Xu Qi'an's persuasion came to mind.

In the field related to persuasion, few people can compare it with popularity.

Just as he decided to use this poem to prostitute the three great scholars, he suddenly thought of the situation of Yunlu Academy in the past 200 years.

It seems that the Song Dynasty emperor wrote this poem correctly? It's full of fame and inducement, and the graduates of Yunlu academy have always had a difficult career. "

"When I passed the examination, I felt that I didn't know that I would be sent out to that remote place in the future..."

"I copied this poem, not to poke the heart of Yunlu academy, but just the opposite..."

seeing him silent for a long time, Xu's new year's brow became more and more tense. Three great scholars, Zhang Shen and Li mubai, had been looking forward to it, while Chen Tai had tea with a smile.

Xu Qi'an took back his thoughts, arched his hand and said, "the students are making a fool of themselves. I'd like to say goodbye to them and polish my ink."

Xu Xinnian finds pen, ink, paper and inkstone, puts them on the table, and grinds ink for his cousin himself. He holds a pen in one hand and a sleeve in the other. The tip of the pen dips in the ink, and turns to indicate his cousin to pick up the pen.

my handy calligraphy is not disgraceful. No, I can't even write. Xu Qian's heart is tucking up, and the author's face is pointing out the way of the strong language. He said, "

," make complaints about the old. "

Xu new year nodded and sat in front of the case.

"Three lights and five chickens."

"It's when men are reading."

"Black hair doesn't know how to study early."

"Bai Shou Fang regrets reading late!"

When Xu finished, he put down his pen and gazed at the beautiful seven words written on the rice paper. His eyes were bright and his face was slightly excited.

There was a short silence in the house. Xu Xinnian felt the lingering charm of the poem. The three great Confucians walked quickly to the bank and stared at the rice paper in silence.

Staring in silence.

Chen Tai, with a long beard on his chest and a black robe, has a twinkling look.
