Zhenguan Leisurely King

Chapter 333 You Are Really Stubborn
Wang Pingan was surprised: "I didn't expect Mr. Honglou to know about Taoism and Buddhism?"

"Hmph, they're just a group of scum who use Purdue sentient beings as a cover and don't do production, but the two often suppress each other for the sake of profit. This is the kind of person that I don't like the most." Mr. Honglou said in a deep voice .

"Haha... Well said, very well said, they are a group of swindlers who pretend to be equal to all beings, if there is a chance, I really want to teach them a good lesson." Wang Pingan said.

"No, if it's not necessary, don't mess with these two forces. You must know that there are so many monks and priests in the world. If they unite, do you think you can compete?" Mr. Honglou said.

Wang Pingan thought for a while and said, "I can't do it now, and it's impossible for them to unite now. And they don't threaten my interests, and I won't harass them for no reason."

Mr. Honglou nodded slightly, and the fan in his hand was still fanning slowly. Although the wind from the fan was very small, in this cold weather, Wang Ping'an was still bitten by the cold wind.

At this time, among Li Er and his party on the second floor, Feng An noticed that Wang Ping'an hadn't appeared for a while, and the storyteller had been talking for a while.

He asked, "Your Majesty, why hasn't Wang Pingan come back yet?"

Li Er said with a smile: "If what I expected is not bad, he should go to that hermit expert."

"What? He went looking for it himself? Could he find it?" Feng An was taken aback, and he asked in disbelief.

Suddenly Feng Rou and Feng An came out, everyone laughed helplessly, can they find it?It is estimated that the chat is over. According to Wang Ping'an's personality, if not, he is trying to persuade the other party to stay in Chang'an.

Everyone's reaction made Feng An and Feng Rou confused. Feng An asked directly: "Your Majesty, did I say something wrong?"

Li Er said: "Feng Aiqing, you underestimate Wang Ping'an too much. Not only has Wang Ping'an been found, but it seems that the two of them are talking happily as if they were old friends."

Feng An shook his head and said: "It's not that I don't believe His Majesty's words, but that this matter is really unbelievable. According to my preliminary understanding, he will only talk to you if he has Mr. It’s quite difficult to accept that.”

Li Er frowned and said: "Oh, if there is such a thing, then Wang Ping'an may be rejected."

The eldest grandson said: "Your Majesty, General Feng, you two don't make wild guesses, let someone take a look and you'll know."

"Your Majesty is right. I'm going to ask you to find out if your husband and Wang Ping'an are together." After Feng An finished speaking, he ordered Feng Rou to take the general to look for Wang Ping'an and the hermit expert.

On the first floor, Wang Ping'an and Mr. Honglou were chatting happily, Wang Ping'an said: "We have been chatting for a while, can I tell you the purpose of coming to Chang'an this time?"

Mr. Honglou smiled and said: "There is nothing to say, this time I came to look for you, and then test you to see if you are enough to be my apprentice."

"Being your apprentice? What can you teach me?" Wang Ping'an asked.

Hong Lou shook her lupine and said calmly, "What do you want to learn? I can teach you everything?"

"Are you sure?"

"Does this old man seem like someone who can deceive people?" Mr. Honglou said with a face.

Seeing him like this, Wang Pingan dipped his hands into the tea in the teacup, then drew Guangzhou, Hainan Island and several nearby slightly larger islands on the table, and said, "Do you know this place, sir?"

"Isn't this Lingnan?" Mr. Honglou put down the feather fan in his hand and said.

Wang Pingan praised: "Sir, you are really knowledgeable. That's right, this is Lingnan. I have had a dream since I was a child, which is to build a port here, so that the ships of the Tang Dynasty can pass through this port and open like the whole world."

"Your dream is very unrealistic. Let's not talk about how big the world is. If you stay on the boat for a long time, you will get an incurable disease." Mr. Honglou said,
Wang Pingan said: "This is easy to treat, one orange a day can get it done."

"You still understand medical principles?" Mr. Honglou said in shock.

"I don't understand. It's just some basic common sense. There's no need to make a fuss." Wang Pingan said lightly.

"Common sense." Mr. Honglou muttered with a slightly wry smile, and then said: "Even if you solve the incurable disease, what about the ship? What about the chart? What about the sailor?"

Mr. Honglou's three consecutive questions thought he would stump Wang Ping'an, but unexpectedly he said, "Didn't you say you want to teach me? This problem should be solved by you."

Mr. Honglou said with a wry smile: "The ability of a craftsman is beyond my ability, and the battle on the water is also beyond my ability. Don't you want to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, astronomy and geography, and the way of managing the world to save the country?"

Wang Pingan said: "The piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are arty, and you can indeed learn them in your spare time. Astronomy and geography are indeed very important. As for the way of managing the world and saving the country, it is not something ordinary people can learn."

After hearing Wang Ping'an's comment, Mr. Honglou regained a little bit of pride and said, "It seems that you also like to study the way of managing the world and saving the country?"

Wang Pingan shook his head.

"No? Could it be astronomy and geography?" Mr. Honglou didn't expect that he would guess wrong.

Wang Pingan shook his head again.

"That's not it, that's not it, do you want to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Mr. Honglou was shocked again.

Wang Pingan shook his head three times, and said: "Qinqi, calligraphy, painting, astronomy and geography, the way of managing the world to save the country, arithmetic, the way of keeping things, medical science, commerce, agriculture, military and other industries will be available to all people in the near future. All the common people can have the opportunity to learn. So sir, in my eyes, what you said is just a more professional person, not that you have the highest achievement. Believe me, if you are still so self-confident, you will not be able to do so in ten years. , There will be many people in Datang who surpass you, maybe they can’t compare with you in wisdom or overall talent, but they can definitely surpass you in a certain field.”

Mr. Honglou was shocked, in addition to being shocked, he was still shocked, but with his self-cultivation, he quickly came back to his senses, and he said: "Stay in the same place, you still say that the old man is in the same place? This is the funniest joke I have ever heard. Can you Do you know how old this old man is?"

Wang Pingan asked Mr. Honglou for a while and said, "About forty?"

"Then do you know what the old man has been doing for the past 40 years?" Mr. Honglou asked again.

Wang Ping'an couldn't help frowning, and said: "According to your age and knowledge, especially in astronomy and geography, if you want to learn well, you have to go all over the mountains and plains. If you guessed right, you should have There are many maps of the Tang Dynasty, maybe the maps of the Ministry of Households are not as detailed as yours."

"Uh!!!" Mr. Honglou's capital that he wanted to show off was suddenly uttered by Wang Pingan, causing him to petrify instantly.

Wang Pingan continued: "I say you are self-sufficient, not that you are not learning, but that you are learning and exploring with your own strength. Although you have made extraordinary achievements, your extraordinary achievements are easily surpassed and chased by younger generations. Don't think I'm joking, just imagine yourself, can you compare with a person from an academy?

Maybe you will disdain the students and teachers of the academy, but I can tell you clearly, don't underestimate anyone, or you will be ashamed. "

Mr. Honglou watched Wang Ping'an remain silent, and began to shake the feather fan in his hand again. In an instant, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said, "As expected of the talent I like, with ambition and ideals, tell me, what requirements do you need to agree to?" To be my heir?"

Wang Pingan couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "Mr. Honglou, didn't you hear what I just said?"

"Understood, so what, even if you talk about the academy in your mouth, it will not prevent the old man from accepting you as an apprentice." Mr. Honglou laughed.

Wang Ping'an was arrogant, and said in a deep voice: "Mr., I am afraid that you are really determined to accept me as an apprentice?"

"Exactly, you must know that many people are trying their best to become the old man's disciple, but the old man didn't like any of them. A few years ago, I met someone worth teaching, but It's still a bit short, and can only be regarded as half a disciple.

As for you, it's different, you are the talent I've been looking for, so just ask for conditions. "Mr. Honglou said with a confident look.

Wang Pingan felt that for a while he felt that he was an idiot. After talking so much, and the two of them chatted happily, why did the other party change his face when he said it, as if he would not give up until he accepted himself as a disciple.

Wang Pingan took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and then rolled his eyes a few times. When acquaintances saw this behavior, they would definitely say: This kid Wang Pingan is holding back again.

He said: "Since the master wants to accept me as an apprentice so much, please answer me a few questions, and if you answer them correctly, I will promise you to be your apprentice."

"Just let the horses come."

"Since Mr. Astronomy and Geography knows how to rule the world, I will teach astronomy and geography first. May I ask why the sky is windy, rainy, thunder and lightning, and whether the sky is round and the place is correct?" Wang Ping'an asked.

"Haha... the old man thought you would ask something, the answer is very simple, because of the clouds in the sky, as long as the clouds in the sky can accumulate to a certain extent, it will rain. As for why thunder occurs, it is because the weather is too hot, and the rain is Cold. The fusion of heat and cold creates thunder and lightning.

As for the talk about the roundness of the sky and the roundness of the earth, it is of course correct; otherwise, how could people stand on the ground? "Mr. Honglou said slowly.
