Chapter 1139 Three Immortals

Song Liang was slapped in the face for nothing, and felt bad luck in his heart, but he had no choice but to drive the carriage back to the city.

The see-off line was very long, the carriage couldn't get up quickly, Song Liang had no choice but to wait patiently.

With a glance, he saw a few familiar figures, and turned his head quickly to avoid being discovered.He looked away, but the carriage of the county school was too conspicuous, so he was recognized by others.

"Zi Tong, Zi Tong."

Song Liang turned his head helplessly, showing a bright smile, and raised his hand to say hello. "Zhongxuan, you are here too."

Wang Can said hello to his friends, walked over quickly, winked his eyes, and asked Song Liang with his lips.

"Is the sacrificial wine here?"

Song Liang nodded knowingly, and gestured to the carriage behind him with the corner of his mouth.

Wang Can understood and said loudly, "Before the New Year, we plan to hold a party to nominate masterpieces to be published this year. Are you interested in attending?"

"Masterwork?" Song Liang was a little curious.

There was a sound in the carriage behind him, it was obvious that Song Zhong was also very concerned.

"It is to conduct a centralized evaluation of the new books published by Yinfang in various places this year, and select the ten best ones to recommend." Wang Can leaned beside the carriage, and said the matter roughly, and finally said: "Mrs. I know where I heard our idea, saying that I am willing to sponsor some wine and food, and provide some prizes for the winners. You go back and ask the sacrificial wine, it would be even better if he can come to visit.”

Song Liang coughed and said deliberately: "Thank you Ling Shi. But the year is approaching, and my father is busy with affairs, I'm afraid it's..."

Before the words were finished, Song Zhong opened the car window and shouted: "Zhuzi, you only know nonsense and don't know the severity. What else can be more important than reviewing books and essays? Zhongxuan, don't listen to him, no matter how busy you are, I will also take time to attend the meeting.”

"So the sacrificial wine is also there." Wang Can pretended to be surprised, and hurriedly saluted. "Then it's settled. Later, I will send the invitation to the county school."

"Okay." Song Zhong looked up and glanced into the distance. "Are you here to see off Brother Yuan Xiansi?"

Wang Can nodded. "That's right, their brothers are also heading west today, and I and a few comrades are here to see them off."

Song Zhong sighed. "Speaking of which, although you Cai Lingshi is a woman, you don't let your eyebrows go. If it weren't for that sacrificial oration, dozens of people would have died. Zhongxuan, if you have a chance, please convey my respect to her for me."

"Definitely." Wang Can said with a smile.

Seeing his bright smile, Song Zhong felt unhappy, so he couldn't help asking again. "When you say goodbye, can you still laugh?"

Wang Can said with a smile: "Why can't you laugh? It's a blessing in disguise. Brother Yuan Xiansi's trip to the Western Regions, although it will take some hardships, it might be an opportunity."

Song Zhong said angrily: "If there is an opportunity, why don't you go?"

"Who said I won't go?" Wang Can blurted out. "In the future, when the emperor travels westward, Lantai will definitely accompany him. As an official, I will naturally accompany the emperor to see the beautiful scenery of the Western Regions. Zitong, are you interested in traveling with us?"

Song Liang glanced at Song Zhong, curled his lips. "My parents are here, so I won't travel far. I'm not as heroic as you, and I still have to stay at home to serve my parents. When you have made meritorious service and become a marquis, don't forget to report the good news to me."

Wang Can laughed, cupped his hands, and said goodbye to Song Zhong.

The carriage set off again, Song Zhong was silent for a moment, and asked Song Liang, "Zitong, do you want to go west with the Son of Heaven?"

While driving the car, Song Liang said, "Don't worry, Ah Weng, I won't go."

Song Zhong sighed. "You young people, you only know that meritorious deeds are attractive, but you don't know how hard it is to conquer thousands of miles. Besides, although a gentleman is said to be immortal, meritorious service is the first. But look at the many emperors in Nanyang, how many are really immortal? ? Rather than taking the lead, lying on the ice and snow, and making achievements thousands of miles away, it is better to write books and establish morals, so that they will not be immortal."

Song Liang wasn't in the mood to listen at all, while perfunctory, he raised the whip, and the whip crackled.

Seeing this, Song Zhong closed his mouth helplessly.

He knew Song Liang wouldn't listen.

Influenced by the emperor, the atmosphere in Nanyang is very impetuous nowadays. Young people like to talk and talk, and they value meritorious deeds, and fewer and fewer are willing to settle down to study knowledge.

This made him very worried.

Thinking of the gathering that Wang Can said, he felt that it was necessary to make good preparations. When he spoke at the meeting, he suggested that young people should refocus on learning and stop thinking about things thousands of miles away.

Back at the county school, Song Zhong got out of the car and walked in with a heavy heart.

When he walked through the front yard, he saw a few figures, but he didn't pay attention and continued walking.The new year is approaching, and there are many officials from all over the world.In addition to official business, many people would choose to come to the county school to take a look, especially the portraits on the wall in the front yard.Song Zhong had seen a lot, so he didn't bother to pay attention.

"Song Zi?" A familiar voice came, interrupting Song Zhong's thoughts.

Song Zhong looked up, his complexion changed drastically, he raised his legs and wanted to run, but someone grabbed his sleeve.

"Haha, old thief, you want to run when you see me." Yuan Shu laughed, stretched out his hand, hooked Song Zhong's neck, half-dragged, half-dragged him, and pulled him to the front of the portrait. "Tell me, why is there no Lao Tzu in these portraits?"

While struggling, Song Zhong glared at Yuan Shu. "You deserve it too?"

"Why am I not worthy?" Yuan Shu also widened his eyes. "At the beginning, the maidservant's son wanted to support Liu Yu as emperor. If I hadn't strongly opposed it, you Jingzhou people would have become traitors, and your heads would all hang in Wanshi."

"Bah, bah, bah!" Song Zhong felt unlucky, and took a few mouthfuls.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, how could I meet this idiot, which pot is not open and which pot to carry.

Is it something to brag about killing people during the Chinese New Year?
"Okay, save some effort. I don't have a few teeth in the first place, and it would be a pity to lose a few more." Yuan Shu let go of Song Zhong, and turned around twice with a smile on his face. "Look, isn't it interesting that I came to see you as soon as I arrived in Wancheng? I heard that you have done well in the past few years, and you have become Songzi."

Song Zhong was not in the mood to chat with Yuan Shu, and asked straight to the point: "What are you doing in Wancheng?"

"The painting of the Luoyang map is finished, I'm here to deal with it." Yuan Shu smiled and said, "What's your attitude, you don't welcome me?"

"Did the scroll painting of Luoyang be finished? So soon?"

"It's okay. If the person in the way is dead, the progress will naturally be fast."

Song Zhong frowned. "So, Luoyang is about to start rebuilding?"

"This is not something I can decide. It depends on how the court arranges it. However, I guess even if it is rebuilt, there will be no major construction work."

"how do you know?"

"Look at Chang'an and you'll know."

Song Zhong thought about it, and felt that what Yuan Shu said was reasonable.Although the emperor did not set his capital in Chang'an, he lived in Chang'an for a period of time. He only studied Taixue and lecture halls, and did not carry out large-scale restoration of the palace.If nothing else, Luoyang has a high probability of being the same.

In terms of frugality, the Son of Heaven is indeed beyond reproach, even compared with the ancient sage kings.

"Even if you don't study the palace, you must study the Taixue?"

Yuan Shu chuckled. "Why, you are tired of studying in Nanyang County, and want to make a sacrificial wine for Taixue?"
