Laughing and proud rise again

"Scholar?" The sergeant heard that Zhang Yu was a scholar, so he withdrew his saber.

With a slightly relaxed tone, he said, "It's not that I said, Lord Qianhu is going to come to offer incense. Why don't you avoid it."

"Hmph, what's wrong with Qianhu, don't you know that first come first come first? Still look down on me as a scholar?" Du Zhen was quite proud.

Hearing what Du Zhen said, the sergeant was suddenly speechless. You must know that the status of scholars in the Ming Dynasty was very high.

"Don't dare, you gentlemen. I don't dare to look down on scholars."

Just when the sergeant was silent, a vigorous voice came.

Then a tall figure came into the eyes of Zhang Yu and others.

This is a man about 1.9 meters tall, wearing a military officer's clothes.

The man was riding a tall horse, looking extremely majestic.

There is a vermilion carriage next to it.It is estimated that his family members are in the car.

The man got off his horse and said: "The subordinates of my humble servants are all vulgar warriors. If you offend a few gentlemen, I will hope that they will forgive you."

"Hmph, since your lord knows that your subordinates are vulgar, why don't you teach them a lesson." Du Zhen was not polite.

"Huh?" The military officer hummed, and stared hard at Du Zhen and the others. Du Zhen and Zhang Yu looked at each other without showing any timidity.

The military officer suddenly walked up to the sergeants and raised the whip in his hand.

"Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack." A few whips hit the sergeants in a row.

"Are the three ministers satisfied?"

"Humph" Du Zhen still snorted coldly.

Hearing Du Zhen's cold snort, the military officer's complexion gradually became unkind.

Zhang Yuxin said: "Not good."

"Your Excellency is strict in running the army, and Wansheng and others admire it." After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he was about to pull Li Quanzhu, and Du Zhen left.

"Hold on."

"What else is there, sir?

"My subordinates assaulted the three ministers, and I have punished them. But what about the few who assaulted the official?"

"I am a fifth-rank official of the current dynasty!" The military officer seemed extremely proud.

Zhang Yu understood that the military officer wanted to save face.I can't help feeling anxious, people don't fight with officials.

He rolled his eyes, and suddenly cupped his hands to the north and said, "Your Excellency is a fifth-rank official of the current dynasty, so remember that the Taizu once said that we would wait for scholars to see officials and not worship officials. Have you forgotten, Your Excellency?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say this, the military officer didn't dare to doubt it.But the status of scholars in the Ming Dynasty was so high, it might not be Zhu Yuanzhang's preferential treatment.

"Stop talking nonsense, Taizu taught. How can I forget it." When mentioning Emperor Taizu, the military officer had a serious face.

More and more people gathered around to watch, the military officer probably didn't want to make a big fuss about the incident.

The tone suddenly changed: "I think you are also people with fame and fame, and you must have outstanding talents."

"How about this, I play three pairs, you guys can match, let's forget about it today."

"If you don't match one couplet, then this official will punish you for a crime of rebellion today."

Zhang Yu didn't feel much emotion yet, he just wanted to get out of here quickly.

On the contrary, it was Li Quanzhu and Du Zhen whose faces were flushed and their brows were angry.

In the Ming Dynasty, civil servants were extremely powerful, and it was also the dynasty that looked down on military officials the most.

It was a joke in the eyes of Li Quanzhu and Du Zhen that the military officer wanted to argue with them.In their eyes, the military officer is a vulgar warrior.Nothing to do with elegance.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Yu smiled wryly.

The military officer was very scheming, and the military commander didn't lose anything if the pair got married, if they didn't get along.Zhang Yu and the others would be ashamed.

"How?" At this point, Zhang Yu and the three had no choice but to agree.

Seeing that Zhang Yu and the others agreed, the military commander sneered repeatedly: "Scholars, listen up."

My upper couplet is: "Two boats running side by side, the oars are as fast as the sails."

Li Quanzhu laughed as soon as he heard it: "This couplet is very simple, I am right,,,,,,"

"Brother Li, wait a minute, this couplet is not easy." Before Li Quanzhu could say anything, he was interrupted by Du Zhen.

"Why is it not easy? I was right: climbing a mountain alone, the ground is not as high as the sky. It's fine if you don't."

Li Quanzhu was full of complaints, and when he was about to show off his talent, he was interrupted and no one could stand it.

Du Zhen said with a serious face: "Of course it's not easy."

Let’s take a look: “Na Lu Su Ming refers to boats and oars, but actually refers to Lu Su, the Prime Minister of the State of Wu during the Three Kingdoms period; Fan Kuai refers to Chuan Fan, but actually refers to Fan Kuai, a military general of the Western Han Dynasty. This couplet actually refers to: ‘A civil servant is not as good as a military general’.”

After Du Zhen's explanation, Zhang Yu also understood.In fact, he has seen this pair in later generations.

"I didn't expect that a vulgar martial artist could think of such an exquisite pair."

"Unbelievable, incredible!" Li Quanzhu was also surprised.

Seeing Du Zhen and Li Quanzhu chattering, the general said impatiently: "Maybe they match?"

"That's right, who said we can't do it. Brother Du, come here." As soon as the general urged, Li Quanzhu looked at Du Zhen with anxious eyes.

But Du Zhen blushed and said, "I'm sorry."

The two immediately looked at Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu looked at the expectant eyes of the two, as if he would be guilty if he said he couldn't.

Zhang Yu touched his nose helplessly and said, "Well, I'm right."

"Haha, I knew Brother Zhang Xian was right for him. Is there anyone in Xi'an who doesn't know about Brother Zhang Xian's talent?" Li Quanzhu was very excited, and Du Zhen was also extremely happy.

Under the expectant eyes of Li Xiucai and Du Xiucai, Zhang Yu walked out slowly and said, "General, your first couplet is actually quite simple."

You listen, I said: "The eight directions are playing together, how can the flute be clearer than the flute."

"Miao, Miao, Miao." As soon as Zhang Yu's second couplet came out, Du Zhen's eyes lit up, and he called out the word "Miao" three times.

Two boats run side by side, the oars are fast and the sails are fast

Playing in unison from all directions, how can the flute be clearer than the Xiaohe

The upper couplet is inlaid with Lu Su and Fan Kui, and the lower couplet is inlaid with Di Qing and Xiao He.The Shanglian said that literature is not as good as martial arts; the Xialian said that martial arts are not as good as literature.What a perfect match.

The military general saw that Zhang Yu was facing the Shanglian, so he said again: "There is more, and listen carefully:

Two apes are logging in the deep mountains, how can the little monkey saw (sentence)

This couplet is a satire on Zhang Yu's little monkey, I'm sorry for this couplet.

The good guy started scolding, and Zhang Yu didn't show any weakness: "How can an old beast get its hoof when a horse is stuck in the mud (question)"

When the general heard that he was called an old beast, his face turned red and his eyes widened.Said: "One axis of ancient paintings, dragons don't sing, tigers don't howl, flowers don't smell fragrant, birds don't sing, seeing this kid, it's ridiculous!"

"Half a game of chess is left, the cart has no wheels, the horse has no saddle, the cannon has no smoke, the soldiers have no food, shout general, be careful!" Zhang Yu opened his mouth and came.

The general sneered again and again: "Good boy, you actually asked me to be on guard. How dare you tell me to be on guard."

Zhang Yu also said loudly: "You humiliate me as a scholar. This is one crime. Breaking in front of Luzu Temple is two crimes. Riding a horse openly in the city is three crimes. The most important thing is that you openly disobeyed the Taizu's law. , This is a serious crime. There are several crimes like this. Are you still not on guard?" After speaking, Zhang Yu stared at the general's face.

The general looked at Zhang Yu carefully, and suddenly turned his horse back and said, "You are so courageous. The green hills will not change, and the green water will flow forever. Today, I will let you go." The sergeant also walked away in despair.
