Chapter 1166 : Picking Chrysanthemums Under the Eastern Fence

"This is really a good place? If you do things in the king's world in the future, there will be such a place, build a few thatched huts, cultivate a few fertile fields, and raise a few fish. Every day, fish with the little princess, Xiaodie, Xie Lan, and Lu sisters, see the scenery, and when you are free, you will grow flowers, make grass, learn from Tao Yuanming, pick chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, and leisurely see the southern mountains! You will never pay attention to the troubles in the world, how free and easy it would be!"

Just as Xiao Yun was thinking about his thoughts alone, Zhang Yuluo was already sitting upright on the stone table in the pavilion. He raised his jade hand slightly, lifted the teapot and placed it in front of the bamboo tube. Hearing a thud of water, Xiao Yun came to his senses. Following the sound, he saw an exquisite teapot on the stone table in front of Zhang Yuluo. There were six porcelain cups around the teapot, and there was a small stove at the other end of the teacups. The fire of the stove had been lit and was making a burning sound.

Zhang Yuluo elegantly reached out and lifted the water bottle. The elegant movements made Xiao Yun feel pleasing to the eye, and said to himself: "This girl seems to have put in a lot of effort on this! Otherwise, she would never be so elegant and beautiful!"

When Zhang Yuluo saw him in a daze, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Since you let the young master come and listen to the story, wouldn't it be too rude if there was no tea to drink?"

Xiao Yun shook his head and smiled, but he didn't answer. Since he was a guest, the guest would follow the host's wishes.

Zhang Yuluo put the teapot on the stove and then let out a long sigh. For some reason, Xiao Yun only felt that Zhang Yuluo's face was red and looked very beautiful.

Zhang Yuluo looked into the distance and looked around, as if he was sorting out his thoughts, and seemed to be immersed in some kind of memories.

Xiao Yun did not make a sound urging, sat aside and waited patiently.

I don’t know how long it took, Zhang Yuluo put his hand into his arms, took out a scarf, took a look, and handed it to Xiao Yun.

At this time, the sky was dark, and fortunately there was moonlight. Xiao Yun took the scarf and opened it and saw that it was indeed a poem. After reading a few lines, he couldn't help but sing in a low voice.

Who are the heroes of all the generals in the revival of the world? Even if a person dies, he is still alive.

When he was young, he had three feet of swords and two stones of bows. He set up Xianghan, opened Guoluo, and washed Dongting.

Looking north at the imperial capital, the cunning rabbit is still there, and the good dog is cooking first. When we met the old camp, there were still people in Jinge. When we remember the old general, we burst into tears.

Is it true that I know that hatred is painful when I was in the past? I don’t follow the imperial edict, is it true? I am guilty of my crime, and your Majesty can be seen and my heart is full of heart.

After all the time, the old treacherous ministers will never be able to do so. The sun shines in the sky, and suddenly becomes enlightened.

The crown is covered with crowns and guises, and the Jiuyuan is under the glory and thank you for your kindness. Look at the February of every year, the wild flowers are all over the ground, and the turquoise book is welcomed by the gods.

Xiao Yun read it while thinking carefully. Although this poem is written about Yue Fei, the momentum makes people excited when reading it, and a sense of heroism arises from the bottom of his heart. It is hard for Xiao Yun to imagine that this poem was written by Zhang Shixin, and he couldn't help but say, "This is what your father wrote?"

Zhang Yuluo's face turned red and said, "The word is not my father, but a scholar named Liu Guo. My father just remembers it and copied it on this scarf!"

Xiao Yun didn't know who Liu Guo was, but seeing this man's poems are so heroic that his patriotism is self-evident. He thought he was also a famous patriotic scribe, so he didn't care. He kept listening with his ears on his back. Based on his feelings, he vaguely knew that the next story should be mostly related to this poem.

Sure enough, Zhang Yuluo pondered for a while and said, "My father and mother can be regarded as childhood sweethearts. They have been in love with each other since childhood. However, when my father was young, he was worried about taking the imperial examination in his heart. He only wanted to take the imperial examination as a good official?"

"Being a good official, the Tartar court is like that. What good official can you do? I didn't expect that Zhang Shixin was quite pedantic?" Xiao Yun muttered in his heart.

"My mother saw that the Tartar court was indecent and unruly, and she was not optimistic about my father's examination and examination. However, the man was determined to be in all directions. Although my mother was unwilling to do so, she knew that this was a big event for my father. She did not support it, but she did not stop it!"

Xiao Yun nodded and said, "Naturally, everything is inferior, but is it better to study?"

Zhang Yuluo glanced at Xiao Yun and said quietly: "My father often said to my mother like this. Every time, when I say this, my mother always smiled but didn't refute it!"

"What a gentle and considerate woman?" Xiao Yun sighed.

"My father is determined to rely on the imperial examination, so he will work harder in his study. The Four Books and Five Classics, various schools of thought, military strategy, and strategy theory. As long as it is related to the imperial examination, my father will study hard. Until these books are kept firmly in his mind, and when he can use them, he will put down the books in his hand. In this way, my father studied hard at home for five years before packing his bags and rushing to Dadu to pass the imperial examination. This time, my father is full of confidence and thought that with his own talent, it is not difficult to win a top scorer? But..." At this point, Zhang Yuluo sighed softly.

Xiao Yunze heard it funny and said to himself: "I can't tell that Zhang Shixin has such a pedantic thing. I really didn't expect it. No wonder Zhang Shicheng immediately persuaded Zhang Shicheng to join the court after being defeated by Zhu Yuanzhang. It seems that he is quite loyal to the Tartar court?"

Zhang Yuluo was silent for a while, and the expression on his face returned to normal. He continued, "My father studied hard for five years and went to Dadu, and was full of joy. The beast who knew that the Tartars regarded my southerners as poor as pigs and dogs. This imperial examination was simply set up for the Tartars, so how could my Dad and the fourth and fourth people enter the examination room? My Dad was dissatisfied and dragged him out of Dadu. In anger, he returned home angrily and burned the Four Books and Five Classics at home. His fire also burned his heart. Since then, for several years, my Dad has built a hut in a mountain forest in his hometown. No one has seen anyone or go down the mountain. That means it is the most obvious. He would rather live on the mountain than see the world of the Tartars!"

"Haha, I can't tell how stupid your father is? But this stupidity is also so cute?" Xiao Yun said happily.
