"Have you heard? Qiu Yan is compiling a military book."

Within a few days, Qiu Yan's conversation with the emperor in the palace spread throughout the official circles. Those officials with real power did not care about it. Even if they heard about it, they mostly smiled indifferently and said "young people". frivolous.

However, many people who are in idle positions, or are recent Jinshi, officials, or supplementary officials, pay special attention to it, spread it by word of mouth, and talk about it.

Among them, the concubines of the Hanlin Academy are the representatives. This position is in the name of the Hanlin Academy, but many times, they will be called to the palace to record events and wait for edicts. They are most interested in the news coming out of the palace. sensitive.

A large part of this group of Shuji scholars had only been in office for less than half a year. Their seniority was close to that of Qiu Yan, but there was a big difference in their ranking in the imperial examination.

After the imperial examination, Qiu Yan, Ye Yun, and Li Le were awarded high-level official titles, and the remaining Jinshi had to pass the assessment before they could get the position of Shujishi.

Now, half a year later, the people who were ranked the same as Jinshi have begun to gradually become different——

Ye Yun relied on his official connections and stayed in the Hanlin Academy for three months. After gaining qualifications, he went to other departments, while Li Le resigned gracefully, leaving Qiu Yan alone. Favored by the emperor, he took charge of the military pavilion. He is the most powerful among the three.

Obviously, it was rumored that he was going to compile a military book based on the Bingge classics. The people who were most affected by this news were the Jinshi in the same year, and the Hanlin Academy was the first to bear the brunt.

After Ye Yun and Li Le left, Di Ai was the leader among the new concubines.

Speaking of Dee Ai, there is also some background. His adoptive father took over the position of Minister of Industry a few months ago. He is also considered a high-ranking official, and his scope of authority is rich in oil and water. It involves local projects and military equipment, so he will naturally be powerful. Even his adopted son, Di Ai, is also getting better and better, and he is often complimented by others.

However, Dee Ai is very competitive. In the past, there were many competitions with Qiao Qi's parents and his adopted brother, and he won more than he lost, and he was arrogant. Even though his ranking in the imperial examination was not as good as Qiu Yan's, and he knew that Qiu Yan's writing had strange phenomena, he still had the intention to compete, and after becoming a common man, he back. He often compares himself with Qiu Yan.

However, he was also extremely talented. In just six months, he was recognized by Han Bian for his ability in doing things and wrote a letter of recommendation. Soon he will be awarded an official position. When the time comes, whether he stays in the Imperial Academy or goes elsewhere, he will be one step ahead of others.

Now, I heard the discussion. Di Ai narrowed his eyes: "If Qiu Yan wants to compile a military book, should he simply compile and copy the summary? Or should he use the military pavilion classics as a reference and compile it himself?"

Someone immediately replied: "I don't know about this, but although Qiu Yan is the number one scholar and aroused visions when the results were released, with his age and qualifications, he would not easily compile it himself, right? That doesn't mean he is writing a book. "

"That's right, I don't have enough qualifications, so I just dream about writing books. It consumes too much luck and shows that I don't know the heights of the world. Even if I am the number one scholar, I won't be able to achieve anything." After thinking about it, Di Ai shook his head gently.

"Brother Di, you are here, making it easy for me to find you."

At this time, there was a voice coming from outside the door. I followed the sound and saw that it was a colleague. In more than an hour, it was time for Di Ai to go to the palace as an errand to meet him. Unexpectedly, he showed up in advance.

"Brother Xiang, what's wrong? Is there a change of work?" Although it was strange, Di Ai didn't show it and still greeted him as usual.

"No," the man shook his head, "I just met Yang Shidao in the palace. He asked me to come back early. He said he had something to ask you and asked you to wait for him in the library."

"Shi Yang?" Di Ai's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he nodded and said: "I see, Di understands it. Thank you so much, Brother Xiang. It's just a matter of service in the palace..."

The man said: "Master Yang has already made arrangements for the errands in the palace, so you don't have to worry."

"Thank you." Nodding, Di Ai said goodbye to a few others and went straight into the library.

There are many books in the library, and every floor is full of the fragrance of books and ink, but the room of the lecturer Yang She is on the third floor.

Speaking of which, even those who serve in the Hanlin Academy cannot easily access this library. They need the approval of Yang She and others. Of course, there are always a few days every month when the library will be open to Shu Ji. Scholars, let them enter and increase their knowledge.

In comparison, Meng Sanyi's treatment is already better than that of many officials. However, officials with official seals will naturally not care about a servant, just like a person will not be angry because an ant has gone to a place he cannot go. Same.

As soon as he entered the pavilion, Di Ai took a deep breath and sighed: "After all, it is a place where books are collected, where writers and thoughts gather. If you can study here every day, you will definitely achieve something even if you have average qualifications. Unfortunately, now Only Qiu Yan can enjoy this place, but because I have no connections and no ability to be charming, I am not taken seriously and can only move forward step by step!"

As he walked and bathed in thoughts, his mind became clearer and clearer. The feeling of thoughts surrounding him was like a clear spring flowing through his chest, which felt comfortable and cool.

High mountains, flowing water, and winding paths lead to secluded areas.

This book collection place suddenly bloomed with a different kind of brilliance.

collision!

But suddenly, an uncoordinated breath hit from the side, causing the feeling of comfort in Dee Ai's heart to suddenly dissipate!

This time, it seemed as if he had fallen from the clouds, so he was naturally annoyed.

"Huh?" Di Ai frowned and looked around according to his feelings. What caught his eye was a plaque with two words written on it——

Bingge!

"It turns out that this is the Military Pavilion, the residence of Qiu Yan. This feeling of confusion should come from thoughts and thoughts. It seems that it is caused by confusion of thinking, which also affects the surrounding cultural atmosphere!"

Inexplicably, Di Ai felt a sense of contempt and disgust, but did not leave. Instead, he took a few steps forward and came to the opening of the military pavilion. As he approached, he could feel the chaotic thoughts emanating from inside becoming more and more obvious.

Narrowing his eyes, Di Ai raised his hand, pointed it like a sword, and pointed it on his forehead. A light flashed in his eyes, and the scene in his field of vision changed rapidly!

"Let's see what difficulties you, the top scholar, have encountered. Is it because of the art of war? If you don't have diamonds, don't take up the porcelain job..."

Before the thought was finished, it stopped abruptly. In Di Ai's field of vision, thoughts appeared and thoughts became shadows. Strong figures emerged one after another, wearing armor and holding knives and swords. Row after row, the sound of killing was loud. sky!

"Is this... a military training scene?"

In surprise, he saw a few people in the row of soldiers who were unruly and rushed out to break away from the queue. A sense of chaos arose, which was inconsistent with the surroundings. It actually caused a little bit of human order to appear and was out of place!

But immediately a force similar to the spirit of a sage pressed down, trapping the person and forcing him back!

Soldiers drill, the scene changes, battle formations are performed, military rules are clear, and murderous intent and order slowly emerge in the chaotic camp!

Then, soldiers, armors, and equipment appeared, showing off their respective combat capabilities, changing unpredictably, and gradually becoming more and more literary!

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a long arrow rushed over and went straight to Di Ai's face, causing his face to sting. His heart was startled and he subconsciously stepped back, about to scream!

But there was a sound coming from behind——

"Be determined and don't be fooled by the sparks of thinking when writing a book. Otherwise, you will inevitably fall into it, which will affect your literary mind and even cause hidden dangers in the future when your thoughts are out of order."

The sound slowly approached, which calmed Dee Ai's restless mind, and the surprise in his heart dissipated a lot. After all, he didn't scream out, but the surprise was still in his heart.

"Writing a book? Could it be that Qiu Yan really..."

Looking along the sound, what appeared in front of Di Ai's eyes was Yang She's serious face, which made people feel depressed at the first sight.

However, in his eyes at this time, Yang She's face did not look so solemn, but instead gave him a sense of relief.

"Don't be surprised. You have also noticed the changes in the military pavilion." Yang She glanced at Di Ai and turned his attention to the military pavilion. "This Qiu Yan is really an outstanding person. At such an age, he is already about to write a book." He said, no wonder the officials still entrusted him with important tasks even though they knew he had practiced extraordinary methods."

"Extraordinary method..." Di Ai's heart trembled. When the situation came to light, there had been rumors about this matter in the official circles for a long time, but no one said anything about it. Now that it was said from Yang She's mouth, the meaning was extraordinary, giving Di Ai a heartfelt feeling. Feel.

"Your Excellency, this..." He composed his thoughts, raised his hands in salute, and then pointed to the military pavilion.

"Do you know what those military training scenes where literary thoughts are manifested are all about? It's not that his thinking is chaotic," Yang She retracted his gaze, "but that Qiu Yan's theoretical thoughts gradually took shape when he was writing the book. It influenced Hanlin Wensi and projected the scenes in the book. Only if you have a wise mind and a clear eye can you see it. Come with me..."

"Wensi projection?" Di Ai was surprised and uncertain. He followed Yang She and recalled the past events, but he was still confused. "But that scene was mixed with an aura that was incompatible with the surroundings. Could it be the message that Qiu Yan wanted to convey in the book? ?”

Writing a book establishes a theory, and an article conveys the Tao. If the established doctrine had not existed before, it would naturally show its uniqueness. Even if it has not yet been written, there will be clues.

"It's hard to say, but one thing is certain, that is, Qiu Yan has read through all the books in the Bingge Collection, and he has them in his heart, so the scattered literary thoughts will be all-encompassing and lifelike." Having said this, Yang She turned to look at Di Ai changed the topic, "This person is a traitor and a loyal person. He is a spy planted by the Taoist sect in the imperial court. He has deceived the officials, but we cannot take it lightly."

"Spy?" Di Ai showed no surprise, as if he had expected this statement, and then smiled, "Then what is the purpose of letting me come here?" As he spoke, his heart moved, and he felt that there seemed to be something hidden at the end of the corridor. One person, but his train of thought was interrupted by Yang She's next words.

"The officials are determined to send Qiu Yan as an emissary to Hu Di. It is too dangerous to hand over matters related to the safety of the country to a spy. However, I am a soft-spoken person and it is difficult to change the officials' minds. I can only remedy this in other ways..."

As they talked, the two came to the center of the library. Yang She walked in and picked up a book from a bookshelf. There were a few bamboo sticks in the book. He looked back at Di Ai and said -

"So I will recommend one person to go with me on this mission. This person..."

"That's you!"
