my brother champion

Chapter 100: Great Drought in the Northwest!The bandits robbed a cart of soil
"Ah, oh, oh, what the hell, who is speaking ill of me behind my back!"

After sneezing several times in a row, Huo Guang couldn't help rubbing his itchy nose.

At this moment.

Sima Qian, who was standing with him, said with a smile: "You must have caught a cold, or it was caused by the wind and cold. What does it have to do with others saying bad things about you behind your back?"

"Or?"

"Is there any special saying?"

Huo Guang immediately waved his hand and said, "Hey, I just said this casually, so there's nothing to say."

"Okay!" Sima Qian continued with a smile, "The lecture seat is in the Quantai Palace, won the other four great Confucians?"

Huo Guang nodded, and replied: "I won, and now I am being retained by His Majesty to hold a teacher apprenticeship ceremony for Prince Liu Ju."

Before Liu Shi, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che had no heirs.

The crown prince has always been a major issue in the country. Even seven or eight years ago, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was still very young, his uncle Tian Fu hooked up with Huainan King Liu An.It is said that after the death of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, then Liu An is the most promising person to be the emperor.

after all.

Liu An, king of Huainan, was the grandson of Gaozu.

However, no one thought that Wei Zifu, the real nobleman of the Wei and Huo families, would suddenly give birth to the first prince for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

exactly.

The original Empress Chen was abolished for being a demon in the palace. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, including all officials in the imperial court, had to pave the way for the future of the first prince of the Han Dynasty.

If the name is not correct, the words will not ring true.

then.

Without any objection, Wei Zifu, the noble person who really made the Wei and Huo families rise, stepped into the Jiaofang Palace of Weiyang Central Palace with the support of everyone, and was registered as the queen.

His Majesty is now asking a scholar like Dong Zhongshu to assist the prince Liu Ju to read "Gongyang Chunqiu", which means that the Gongyang theory will become the official school of the court.

official school!

What do you mean?
This means that even if the other four families in the Five Legends of the Spring and Autumn Period are united, they will not be as strong as the Rams.

Of course, these are only the prospects that can be perceived at present.

The development of the story is always confusing, who knows what will happen next?

Anyway, Sima Qian was in a good mood when he heard Huo Guang say that Mr. Dong had become a scribe tutoring the prince Liu Shi, and he laughed and said, "Dong Sheng's knowledge, eloquence, and insight are very comparable. It is expected that he can win the other four." things."

Dong Sheng, a title of praise.

This point was written in this way in Sima Qian's later historical records.

"Ah, yes."

Huo Guang didn't know why Sima Qian was so excited. Looking at him, he didn't know what to say for a while, so he responded a few times.

At this time.

Sima Qian looked at Huo Guang again, and asked, "By the way, Huo Yilang, since I lost to you in the last book paper competition, I have been puzzled. How did you create that painting that is so lifelike and colorful? "

"You mean my oil painting of a girl riding a horse?" Huo Guang said with a frown.

Sima Qian nodded immediately, but seeing Huo Guang's serious expression, he immediately changed his words: "Huo Yilang, please rest assured, Zizhang has absolutely no intention of coveting your painting techniques!"

No?

No you still ask!
Huo Guang thought for a while, then shook his head, and said, "It's okay, if Brother Zi wants to learn, I can teach you!"

"Forehead"

Sima Qian was slightly embarrassed when he heard this.

He really wanted to know how the painting was created, but after Huo Guang, he added "teaching" into it.

In this way, wouldn't he have to worship Huo Guang as his teacher?

This will not work.

I am already 20 years old, how can I call this boy a teacher.

then!

Sima Qian immediately waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'm just asking casually."

"Oh, what a pity!" Huo Guang shrugged indifferently.

After chatting for a while later, Huo Guang invited this cheap brother Sima Qian into the room for a drink.

Simultaneously.

Various programs were also arranged for Sima Qian in one package.

After the future Tai Shigong had enjoyed it for a while, Huo Guang asked, "What do you think of my restaurant, Elder Brother Zi?"

Sima Qian smiled and exchanged cups with Huo Guang, and replied: "Huo Yilang's music here, the program is dazzling, it is really exciting. Compared with Chang'an Le Restaurant, except for the beauty of the singer, There's nothing wrong with that."

Chang'an music?
Huo Guang frowned, and shook his head immediately: "Brother Zi, don't you know that the patrons of Chang'an Le Restaurant were all poached from me by Sang Hongyang? Even their business model is learned from me!"

"This, I really don't know." Sima Qian looked puzzled.

Maybe because of his close relationship with the people in the Li Mansion, he didn't want to talk about bad things, so he immediately talked about other things, saying: "I heard from the lecture that Huo Yilang once had a bad opinion of "Gongyang Chunqiu Biography". Same understanding!"

Different understanding?

In this era, it should be said to be deviant!
After thinking for a while, Huo Guang said, "No, it's just that I just read "Gongyang" for the first time and didn't understand its meaning."

"Brother Zi."

"Actually, I think that when Confucius wrote "Spring and Autumn", he should not have so many subtle words, what do you think?"

When Sima Qian heard it, he immediately smiled and said, "So, Huo Guang, the disciple of the lecturer, actually supports "Chunqiu Zuozhuan" in his heart?"

Huo Guang waved his hand, and quickly explained: "No, no, I just said it casually. That's right. With the talent of the eldest brother, have you ever thought about writing a book similar to "Spring and Autumn"?"

in fact.

What Huo Guang wanted to talk about was the "Historical Records" without rhyme!
But Sima Qian obviously didn't have the idea of ​​compiling "Historical Records" at this time, and shook his head directly: "My father is working on it, and I haven't thought about it yet. After all, I am young, and I still need to study and read a lot."

Huo Guang nodded immediately, and said, "You should play more when you are young!"

Play?
Sima Qian smiled lightly and didn't say much.While eating the wine, he unpacked two more packets of crispy noodles.

Looking at the brightly colored character card inside, he couldn't help sighing: "Huo Yilang's card is exactly the same as the thing on that painting!"

"There are still some differences." Huo Guang shook his head and said.

At this moment.

I only heard Sima Qian say: "I have a cousin named Sima Liang who is younger than Huo Yilang, but I have seen this kind of card with him."

"Unexpectedly, this card turned out to be from Huo Yilang's Here Le Here."

"It's just that the generals on this card don't fit the historical figures of the Warring States Period!"

Huo Guang suddenly laughed, and said: "It's just a card, Brother Zi doesn't need to care about these, come, drink and drink."

"."

at the same time.

In the palace, Liu Shi, the son of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty, was paying homage to his teacher.The scribe Dong Zhongshu began to explain the subtle words and righteousness of "Gongyang Chunqiu Biography" to the prince of the Han Dynasty.

just.

According to the character of Prince Liu Shi.

How is it possible to listen to this kind of literature compiled by oral tradition?

Not to mention listening to it a second time!

If it weren't for his father Liu Che's previous advice, he should study hard.Otherwise, at this moment, I am afraid that he would have fallen asleep long ago.

In most film and television dramas, Prince Li Liu Shi's character is that kind of gentle and cowardly.

Not really!

Although Liu Shi recorded in the official history is afraid of his father, Emperor Wu of the Han, he often does things in private that are contrary to the orders of Emperor Wu of the Han.

For example.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked him to go west, and Liu Ju would go west cowardly.

Wait for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to turn around.

This Prince Li, Liu Shi, will run to the east in no time.

This is not.

When Elder Dong was tutoring Liu Ju on how to understand the subtle words and great righteousness in "Gongyang Chunqiu", Prince Li Liu Ju suddenly covered his head and said, "Mr. Dong, I feel dizzy today. Can I read it again in a few days?" This "The Ram"?"

Liu Ju is currently the only prince of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and also the future prince of the entire Han Dynasty.

Even Dong Zhongshu, who had regained his status as a scribe, did not dare to force the prince to study.

immediately.

Dong Zhongshu cupped his hands and said: "Since Your Highness is dizzy, you should take a good rest. The old man will leave first, and come to counsel His Highness after a while!"

"Thank you Dong Gong for understanding."

The prince Liu Ju immediately laid hands on Dong Zhongshu.

After Dong Zhongshu left.

Liu Shi, who said he was dizzy just now, suddenly regained his energy. At the same time, he said to his accompanying attendant, "Let's go, let's go out to play in the palace."

The accompanying attendant immediately said bitterly: "Your Highness, is this not good? Your father asked us to study here. I heard that His Majesty has always respected "Gongyang Chunqiu Biography". Your Majesty will conduct spot checks in person, what should His Majesty do at that time?"

however.

The young Prince Liu Shi laughed and said, "It's useless to read dead books. What's more, the former Tai Fu Shiqing taught the book "Gongyang" a few years ago. I have read it through once, so there is no need to read it again." .”

"never mind."

"If you don't want to leave, then the hall can leave the palace alone."

Hearing the words, the accompanying servant said immediately: "No, no, Your Highness, I'd better go with you."

"For safety reasons."

"Let's bring more servants, do you think it's okay?"

however.

But Liu Ju shook his head and said, "We are going out of the palace to play in private, you need to bring more servants, do you think my father can't find out that I am going out of the palace secretly? What brains!"

Talking.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Ju tapped his accompanying servant on the forehead.

After suffering a brain melon seed.

The accompanying attendant didn't dare to say more.

Later time.

Liu Ju skillfully sneaked out of the palace, asked the servant to get a carriage, came to the door of a man's house, and knocked on the door.

Soon.

A girl with snow-white skin opened the door. Seeing that the two young children came, she immediately frowned and asked, "Which family are you from? What are you doing knocking on the door? Where is your adult?"

Liu Ju said with a smile, "Sister looks really good-looking, like a fairy from that day."

Faced with these words, the girl frowned, stepped forward and pulled Liu Ju's cheek, and said, "At such a young age, I have imitated the tone of an adult to moleste women. It seems that the adults in the family are not very good people, right?"

This scene happened suddenly.

The attendant next to Liu Ju's eyes burst into tears, and he immediately scolded: "Bold, you temptress, let go of your dirty hands."

"What did you say?"

The girl then stole a deathly look at the accompanying attendant.

The accompanying attendant didn't dare to speak any more.

At this time, Liu Ju was not afraid at all. He knocked off the girl's slender hands with a smile, and said calmly, "Excuse me, is this the mansion of Duke Jiang in Xiaqiu? Come to visit and ask for advice, and I hope my sister will make it convenient."

Another month passed.

The scorching high temperature lasted for two full months.

In some places, the drought is severe.

On the official road to the northwest of Dahan, a group of "green forest heroes" are ambushing on both sides of the road, preparing to hijack the food security officer who passed by today.

"Hey, that so-and-so, are you sure there is a convoy escorting government rations passing by here today?" A man with a gangster face shouted, glaring at the slightly gentle young man on the other side.

The slightly gentle young man looked cowardly and replied: "Today, I have inquired about it, and there is a convoy escorting food passing by. I heard that they are still coming from the Western Regions."

The middle-aged man with a gangster face was still very dissatisfied with this reply, and scolded: "Since there is a convoy escorting food passing by, why don't you come?"

"Damn it, it's such a hot weather, hiding in this ghost place and waiting, and there are mosquito bites."

"What if there is no convoy passing by?"

"Humph!"

"I must have skinned you alive and steamed it for you."

After hearing this, the young man was so frightened that he trembled all over, so he could only murmur in a low voice: "There will be a convoy passing by, and there will definitely be a convoy of food escorts passing by!"

These words seemed to be praying, and also seemed to be a reply to the middle-aged man who was full of gangsters.

It's just that the middle-aged man was very impatient to be bitten by mosquitoes at the moment, and immediately scolded: "What are you mumbling about, are you scolding me?"

"No, it's not."

The young man opened his mouth, just about to explain his behavior.

Then someone shouted: "Look, there is a convoy coming, it is a convoy for betting grain!"

"Shh, keep your voice down."

"When the escort officer enters, we will rush out and kill them."

a time.

The voices of the bandits disappeared, replaced by the ghostly cries of the summer insects in the forest on both sides.

Nearly.

closer.

Looking from a distance, on the grain convoy, there are sacks of sacks, all of which are bulging!
This is not food, what else can it be?
It is said that people die for money, and birds die for food?
actually not.

Because people also die for food, especially in this ancient time when materials were extremely scarce.

The gangsters ambushing in the jungle on both sides, when they looked at the food, suddenly became jealous, and their spirits were as excited as chicken blood.

There is no annoyance of being bitten by mosquitoes before.

until a certain moment.

The leader of the gang stood up and shouted, "Brothers, if you don't want to go hungry, just follow me!"

"Slaughter all these stupid officials, and drag all the food back."

"Hahaha!"

"Grab the dog emperor's food."

a time.

Numerous figures ran out from both sides with messy weapons and slaughtered the gang of officials.

blood.

Like paint, it dyed the road red.

The leader of this group of bandits, named Zhu Qian, is a well-known bandit Zhi on the East Road, who has been doing evil for countless years.

now.

He greedily looked at the robbed food convoy, completely ignoring the consequences of this move.

Yet at this moment.

A younger brother stepped forward, cut open the sack, and saw that what flowed out was a large handful of black soil. He panicked and shouted: "Boss, this is not food. What we robbed is soil!"

"What? Dirt?"

Zhu Qian's pupils shrank slightly, her face full of disbelief.

Immediately, he went forward and cut open the other bulging sacks with a knife, and was dumbfounded when he found that they were also filled with black soil.

"Soil? How could it be soil?"

"Drought in other places can't afford food. What are these goddamn Chang'an dignitaries doing to transport the soil back to Chang'an with such a big fanfare? Are you full?"

"Fang Qing, you bloody bitch!"

"Get the hell out of here, tell me, what is this?"

"I, Zhu Qian, am a bandit, not a bandit! Tell me, we have wasted so much energy, what are we doing to grab these soils?"
