Peerless Pirates

After hearing that Song Zheng asked her to destroy her wrist, Xiaoyun's expression changed, she waved her sword repeatedly, and shouted loudly and fiercely, "You are dreaming about Chu's Chunqiu Complete Reading! Don't come here!" Then she looked at Lou Jing as if asking for help.

Lou Jing was also shocked. He hesitated for a moment and then advised, "Sir Song, why is a little maid like this?"

Song Zheng ignored him and stretched out three fingers towards Xiaoyun, then slowly raised one finger and shouted "one" in a long voice.

Lou Jing walked towards Song Zheng and said, "Sir Song, calm down. Why bother with a maid?"

Song Zheng still ignored him, raised another finger and shouted "two".

Seeing that Song Zheng was about to take action, Lou Jing stopped and waved to the sergeants behind him, signaling them to come up and stop Song Zheng. However, Zhang Chong suddenly stretched out his arms to block him, "Whoever dares to stop my young master, step over me first." .”

The sergeants didn't dare to move anymore and all looked at Lou Jing. Lou Jing was so anxious that he rubbed his hands together. If he forced the sergeant to rush over, he would be at odds with Song Zheng, which would really ruin the situation. If he didn't save it, Xiaoyun, how can I explain this to His Highness Xiang and Master Xue?

Seeing that Song Zheng's third finger was about to bend again, and Lou Jing's rescue was hopeless, Xiaoyun finally couldn't bear it anymore. She shouted hysterically, and the sword quickly stabbed Song Zheng in the chest.

A black light suddenly appeared on Song Zheng's cuff, and Xiao Yun's sword was knocked away. Immediately afterwards, Song Zheng stretched out his left hand and grabbed her wrist, twisting it hard. Xiao Yun exclaimed and was forced to turn back and face the wall. Song Zheng swung his sleeve up high, and the Coiling Dragon Sword Staff appeared, and he smashed it down quickly. After a loud click, Xiaoyun's white and tender hands and wrists were immediately broken into terrifying shapes. angle.

Xiaoyun screamed and collapsed in the corner, as if stuck on the ground. Behind her, Song Zheng's cold voice came, "Remember, if something like that happens again, I will break all the bones in your body. You can't live but you can't die. Please tell the same thing to the master behind you. Even if Song is alone, his blood will be splattered even if he takes five steps!"

Shaking his hands, the Coiling Dragon Sword Staff retracted into his cuffs and disappeared. Song Zheng turned around and walked to the other side of the wall, picked up the Fish Intestine Sword and inserted it into his calf.

At this time, Su Chan was watching everything that happened blankly, her eyes full of disbelief.

Song Zheng gave her a complicated look, then strode towards Lou Jing, patted him on the shoulder, and suddenly laughed, "What happened tonight is really interesting, so interesting!"

Lou Jing looked extremely ugly and reluctantly smiled at Song Zheng, which was even uglier than crying.

Song Zheng had no interest in admiring his appearance. He raised his arms and stretched, then shook his head, "I'm exhausted. It's time to go to sleep. Zhang Chong, let's go back."

With that said, Song Zheng laughed and walked out of the crowd, followed closely by Zhang Chong, leaving a shocked look on everyone's face.

Lou Jing finally realized Song Zheng's ruthless side today. Previously, Song Zheng had always been personable, drinking and composing, wild and uninhibited, how unrestrained he was! Even when fighting with others in Fengjie City, Song Zheng was courteous and courteous. His heart was broken. However, today Song Zheng taught him a lesson honestly: in front of him, he forcibly broke the wrist of a young woman.

It happened that this woman was arranged by Mr. Jiang and had conveyed various messages to him. Now, this woman was beaten under his nose - this was a slap in the face. Lou Jing was inexplicably sad and angry, and could only suppress his shock. Fearful and annoyed, she called for people to treat Xiaoyun's injuries.

Before leaving, Lou Jing opened his mouth to Su Chan, who was sitting blankly on the bed, but in the end did not say anything. For Mr. Jiang's former "favorite general" and the man of his dreams, Lou Jing had no choice but to remain silent.

On the evening of the fifth day of September, Song Zheng and his entourage finally arrived at the Jinjiang River in the south of Chengdu. Song Zheng could not conceal his excitement about this city he had longed for. If it were not for etiquette, he would have dismounted and strolled on the streets.

The bustling restaurants and shops and the bustling crowds, under the diffuse sunlight, were like moving scrolls, attracting Song Zheng's eyes. The only drawback was that his team seemed to be intruders, disturbing the originally harmonious atmosphere. screen.

This is the land of hibiscus, so hibiscus trees are indispensable. This time, it is the time when hibiscus flowers are blooming. White or pink flowers bloom along the roadside and riverside. Even in the darkening sky, they can't hide their stunning brilliance. .

"Sir, the Wanli Bridge is ahead." Lang Boyan and Song Zheng rode side by side, with a slightly tired face still showing the look of hangover from last night. Last night, he was really drunk. This morning After waking up, he regretted the latest chapter. Fortunately, he didn't say any nonsense while drunk, otherwise his face might have been ugly. Even so, Su Chan's incident still shocked him, and he wondered if Song Zheng had seen it. Order something.

Song Zheng returned to normal early in the morning and returned to the carefree and uninhibited scholar, talking and laughing as usual, which made Lang Boyan feel a little more at ease.

Song Zheng has been famous for the Wanli Bridge for a long time. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang sent his envoy to Wu on the bridge, saying, "A journey of ten thousand miles begins with this bridge." The Wanli Bridge in later generations was rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty, and In this era, the Shu Kingdom repaired the old bridge of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and it was still an important transportation thoroughfare.

"Tang Zhang also wrote a poem called "Chengdu Song", which says, 'Jinjiang is near the west with smoke and green water, and lychees are ripe at the top of the Xinyu Mountain. There are many restaurants near the Wanli Bridge, who do tourists like to stay at?' It refers to this place." Lang Boyan is not just here. A martial artist is still familiar with this popular poem.

Song Zheng nodded with a smile, "'With a piece of paper written by a madman, I can live in Wanli Bridge in Chengdu.' It is indeed a good place. The Jinjiang River is prosperous, not inferior to the Qinhuai River. It is comfortable and comfortable, but it is better. However, what I envy the most is Those are the same!" Song Zheng pointed to the rows of hibiscus trees, "This season, Jiangning is also full of autumn colors, but here, the flowers are still blooming all over the city. This artistic conception is quite consistent with 'The beauty of April in the world is gone, I don't know where to turn'. The taste of Zhonglai.”

Xue Qimeng, who followed the second rider, also joked, "Jiangning, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, is famous for its prosperity and interest. If we compare it, it can only be said that spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums are better than each other!" This sentence can be regarded as a compliment to Song Zheng. A compliment in return.

Song Zheng turned around and said, "Brother Xue has been to Jiangning?"

Xue Qimeng shook his head. The farthest he went was Fengjie City. He never left Sichuan. He only imagined the prosperity of Jiangning in the Six Dynasties article.

Song Zheng chuckled lightly, "At least Jiangning at this time is like the 'Old Base Xiao Xiao Lu Di Qiu', and there are not so many delicate hibiscus flowers."

Xue Qimeng's heart suddenly thought, Song Zheng seemed to have something in his words. "The old fortress is rustling and the reeds are in autumn" comes from Liu Yuxi's "Reminiscing about the Past in Xisai Mountain". There is a very harsh sentence in the whole poem "The king of Jinling has lost his spirit sadly". Jinling is not Is it Jiang Ning? What exactly is Song Zheng referring to?

Xue Qimeng also heard about Song Zheng being ostracized in Da Qi and moving to Shu. After listening to Song Zheng's words today, he suddenly had an idea, did Song Zheng intend to stay in Shu? Then, Xue Qimeng Get excited, if you can really convince the other party to stay in Shu, that will be an unparalleled achievement! A dignified Qi envoy, the number one scholar in both civil and military affairs, actually chooses to serve Shu, which will be a huge blow to Da Qi. In that year, he defeated the Qi State in the great victory.

The more Xue Qimeng thought about it, the more excited he became. Along the way, Song Zheng often sang praises for Shu, which made many officials and scribes of Shu feel happy, so much so that even Xue Qimeng had this misunderstanding.

It's a pity that Xue Qimeng's idea is too funny. In fact, every time Song Zheng praises him, he is trying to protect himself. The reason why he walks slowly is not just to visit Bashan Shushui, but to convey kindness to the senior officials in Chengdu. signal, and at the same time create an image like this: This is a young scribe with outstanding literary talent and wild personality.

For a literati, this may be a complimentary image. But for a serious envoy of the Qi State, it is not very qualified. Since Gurlai, Qu Yuan, Cao Zhi, Li Bai, Du Fu, Su Shi, these top literati , which one can be a good official? And which one can really change the course of history?

To put it more harshly, it is "a scholar who is useless for nothing". After all, the ability to recite poems and compose poems and the ability to actually do practical things are not the same thing.

Since entering Shu, except for Su Chan's affairs, which were a bit out of control, Song Zheng has always been planning to leave here safely. However, the sentence "The old base is Xiao Xiao Lu Di Qiu" just now was recited by Song Zheng unintentionally, just because The sentence contains the word "Autumn". Unexpectedly, this sentence caused Xue Qimeng to misunderstand.

What happened next made Xue Qimeng's misunderstanding even deeper.

Walking onto the Wanli Bridge, Song Zheng paused for a moment. Looking around, he saw the setting sun melting gold, the dusk mist combining, the hibiscus flowers flying, and the fishing boats singing late. The charming scene made people forget to leave.

Song Zheng couldn't help but sigh, "It's so beautiful, it's hard to believe that Empress Liu would say, 'I'm happy here, I don't miss Shu'."

Lang Boyan laughed and said, "We have outstanding people in Shu, and if we work together, no one will become An Le Gong."

Liu Chan, the former lord of the Shu Kingdom, was captured by Cao Wei and was granted the title of Duke An Le, the one who did not miss Shu. Lang Boyan's words were hinting to Song Zheng that the people of Shu were united and had enough confidence to defend themselves against foreign humiliation. The emperor of Shu also I won’t be Liu Chan.

However, when Song Zheng's words were heard in Xue Qimeng's ears, they changed into another meaning - Song Zheng intended to be happy with this. He immediately smiled and said, "Master Song, the beauty of Jinjiang and the beauty of hibiscus are just my master. The beautiful scenery of Sichuan is just a glimpse. If you take a look at the whole thing, I'm afraid you won't think about it all!"

Song Zheng was stunned for a moment, and was secretly amused. No wonder Xue Qimeng could only serve as the Minister of Etiquette. He was really an idiot in politics. He actually had such thoughts. It was so whimsical!

Although he felt it was funny, Song Zheng reacted so quickly and quickly said, "The Master said: 'When you see the virtuous, think about them together; when you see the virtuous, you should reflect on yourself.' Since entering Shu, Song has found that there are too few opportunities for self-examination."

This is no joke. If Song Zheng fails to answer the question of "not thinking about Qi", once the news comes back to Jiangning, it will be much more serious than if he brought a prostitute on a mission.

Fortunately, he was smart and answered the other party by borrowing the words of Confucius, which meant that he always had Qi in his heart.

Lou Jing, who was following Xue Qimeng, secretly admired that Song Zheng's answer was so wonderful. The "Qi" in Xue Qimeng's "not thinking about Qi" refers to the Great Qi Kingdom, while Song Zheng's "seeing the virtuous and thinking of Qi" refers to It is on par with learning from sages, and it means that he misses Qi. More importantly, this sentence also praises the many sages in Shu, and puts a high hat on Xue Qimeng and even all Shu people.

One sentence and three meanings, the more Lou Jing thought about it, the better it became. If this reply spreads, it will become a good story.

Looking at Xue Qimeng again, after being stunned for a moment, his eyes showed excitement. Song Zheng's answer was the most wonderful. For him, experiencing and understanding the mystery of this word game is far more interesting than recruiting Song Zheng. many.

It was also from this question and answer that Xue Qimeng became Song Zheng's excellent publicist in Chengdu.
