Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms

Xiao Man bid farewell and left in the middle of the night. Before leaving, he said to Cheng Ling: "Brother Cheng, maybe I will attack Xiao Ruo..."

The best defense is offense!

Xiao Man has endured it for many years, and so far it is beyond the limit.

The real root cause of his illness still needs further investigation, but Xiao Man also decided to find something to do for Concubine Jin.

As for the problem with the incense on his clothes, did Concubine Jin send someone to do it - Xiao Man really has no evidence for this, but so what if there is no evidence?

At this point, some things don't need evidence, it just depends on how Xiao Man decides in his heart.

In the next few days, there were more and more rumors about Cheng Ling being the "God of Agriculture" alive, and they became more and more intense. Later, some very exaggerated and deified claims appeared.

For example, Cheng Ling can use the technique of spreading clouds and rain, and can give birth to thousands of young seedlings with a wave of his hands... Such rumors are too much.

This also really reflects what is meant by uncontrollable rumors. It is human nature to like to spread rumors. You think that what you want to spread is A, but in fact it is B. In the process of spreading, it may even become C, D, E...

In the end, it is not surprising to run a thousand miles.

Harm, what else can I do?

As I said earlier, the best way to cover up a rumor is to create another, more compelling one.

So later, Cheng Ling participated in the stone-appreciation banquet held by the officials of Guozijian's sacrifice to Jiuzhang.

At the stone appreciation banquet, Cheng Ling showed his hand.

It started when everyone discussed "Nongsang Shiji".

Since the Han Dynasty, the ruling power of Confucianism has gradually occupied the court, and the other hundreds of schools have bowed their heads, but it is inevitable.

Although Cheng Ling wrote "Nongsang Shiji", although it was highly valued by the Wei Emperor and had great practical value, when it comes to academic status, it is probably, possibly, not even as good as a random scholar's commentary written by a sage .

Therefore, at the beginning, everyone at the Stone Appreciation Banquet actually looked down upon Cheng Ling.

As the saying goes, there are great scholars in talking and laughing, but there are no white people in communication.

As Zhang Dianchen, those who can be invited to the banquet by him are, generally speaking, even if they are not high-ranking officials, they are also Confucian scholars, or they are masters who have made outstanding achievements in poetry, literature, calligraphy and painting.

At a young age, Cheng Ling became a close minister of the emperor because he fell into the eyes of the emperor. In the eyes of some scholars, it was inevitable that he would be suspected of being flattered.

There are many ways for scholars to express their disdain. Although it is generally not embarrassing directly in person, if the yin and yang get angry, it is not comparable to ordinary people.

In short, there is a vague exclusion, but if you really want to say what is wrong with someone, it is difficult to say it clearly.

Cheng Ling silently accepted this kind of contempt and exclusion, and he was calm at first.

Until the key link of the stone appreciation banquet comes: the gathering of scholars, no matter what is the reason for the appreciation, always ends with writing poems and prose.

Naturally, this was indispensable for the banquet held by the officials of Guozijian Jijiuzhang.

Everyone took turns composing poems, during which time they produced several high-quality works, and when it was Cheng Ling's turn, Cheng Ling naturally sang one too.

"Yuzhi, it's your turn." Zhang Dianchen stretched out his hand, but he was very polite.

Cheng Ling was stared at by everyone, and she actually felt a little bit ashamed. It's not that she can't compose poetry, nor can she write good poems, but she is far from being able to compose eternal quatrains that can shock the world.

In order to be famous, it is necessary to pretend at this time.

She said: "I named this poem Lime Yin."

"Thousands of hammers chisel out deep mountains, and the fire burns like nothing."

Stone, no matter what kind of stone it is, if it wants to come to the world, it must be chiseled out with thousands of hammers.

In the opening sentence, a simple fourteen characters, a force and style that is above the vulgar has risen like a dangerous peak, and Zhang Dianchen raised his brows slightly when he heard it.

If the fire burns like waiting for nothing?

Is this referring to something?

This banquet was called Appreciating Stones, and Cheng Ling wrote a poem, but he was talking about Lime, a deep meaning could not help but linger in Zhang Dianchen's mind.

After pausing for a moment, Cheng Ling then slowly recited the next line of the song "Lime Song", which lasted forever.

"I'm not afraid of being smashed to pieces..."

Cheng Ling's words were clear, and his gaze swept across the strange stone that was placed in the viewing position in the middle, and then glanced at the rest of the people present, whether intentionally or not.

Guozijian doctor Cui Ming couldn't help holding his breath.

Cheng Ling said: "Leave innocence in the world!"

It's a good sentence to stay innocent in the world!

The ancient quatrains are not for bragging. The power of the verses is like huge waves coming from the sky, and it is like the Milky Way flowing backwards into the world. A kind of tenacious strength that seemed to emanate from the spine, like a torrent, broke through the turbid world and rushed into the hearts of everyone present.

——

Thousands of hammers chisel out the deep mountains, and the fire burns like nothing.

I am not afraid of being smashed to pieces, but I want to stay innocent in the world.

Let me ask, who can hear it without being shocked?

The young man in front of him actually has such ambition?

After Cheng Ling finished reciting this poem, he cupped his hands and said to everyone: "Seniors, Wan Sheng's family is still busy, so I will take my leave for the time being."

Zhang Dianchen wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't utter them completely.

Cheng Ling took his leave after reciting a poem. Some people shunned her before, but she didn't fight for it.

But this song "Lime Song" actually said everything that should be said.

To express one's aspirations in poetry, and then drift away, can be called free and easy, with the style of a nobleman.

After Cheng Ling left, everyone at the Stone Appreciation Banquet remained silent for a long time. Everyone knows how to appreciate it, and it is precisely because of this that the shock brought by this song "Lime Song" is particularly profound.

I don't know how long it has passed before Zhang Dianchen finally said in a slightly astringent voice: "In the book "Nongsang Shiji", there are various formulas about fertilizers, their value is clear, and they cannot be faked. But to announce it generously, this matter is also true, and there is no falsehood!"

Someone couldn't help retorting: "Being famous for the benefits of fertilizers, although you don't get real money, you get a lot, not to mention..."

What's more?

What's more, if someone presents a book, he will become a close minister of the emperor in no time!

Of course, it is not easy to say this clearly.

Even though the folk customs in the Great Wei Dynasty are open today, and the emperor has issued a decree long ago, so that all people in the world will not be punished for their words, there are still some things that cannot be said casually.

Even if you really want to complain about the emperor, you have to do it in private, not in front of so many people, right?

But even though the person hadn't finished speaking, the unfinished meaning in the words was still heard by everyone.

Who can't hear it?

This sour smell is almost breaking through the sky, okay?

As for whether other people are...actually sour, that's why they can empathize so much, it's hard to say.

Zhang Dianchen's brows were slightly frowned, and his voice sank slightly: "Perhaps the fertilizer is a small profit, so what about the jacquard loom? "Nongsang Shiji" has been published for more than two months, and the jacquard loom is wonderful. Have you experienced it all?"

None of the scholars present were poor.

In this day and age, people from poor families cannot afford to read books. Those who can read, even if they are not from a powerful clan, but from a poor family, they still have a "family", and their ancestors are more or less rich.

In short, it is absolutely impossible to be a poor and white family. Even if you can study, you can only struggle at the bottom. After achieving certain achievements, life may be much easier, but it is too difficult to enter a circle like Zhang Dianchen's.

At least for now, there is no such person at this stone appreciation banquet.

So, in other words, everyone has a certain amount of financial resources.

People with financial resources, when they discover such a wonderful thing as a jacquard loom, can they not think about trying it?

You must know that the principles of looms are often the same. Although the loom recorded in Cheng Lingshu is only a cotton loom, it is also possible to use it as a silk loom if the specifications are slightly adjusted.

How else can we say that the jacquard machine has epoch-making significance?

Zhang Dianchen once ordered the central part of the clan to invite craftsmen to trial-produce the jacquard loom. After the loom was made, the effect needless to say. In short, the silk cloth woven by the jacquard loom is something that can make a lot of money.

When Zhang Dianchen mentioned this matter, the voices of everyone present couldn't help but become quieter.

There are also those who are not willing to say in a low voice: "Even if the jacquard loom is good, it has been made public and everyone can make it, so what's the point?"

For new things, only by monopolizing can the benefits be maximized!

But all of you present are not businessmen after all, scholars still need some face.

Zhang Dianchen sighed: "Yes, not only the fertilizer, but also the jacquard loom, Cheng Yuzhi has also announced it."

The profit of the loom is enough to make even the top aristocratic families jealous.

If it is not announced, if it is kept in the hands, and after further development, in a few years, a powerful power that is incomparably rich may be created!

Unfortunately, the loom was announced. Without monopoly, everything is empty talk.

Zhang Dianchen said: "Cheng Yuzhi, so courageous! This person is willing to part with it, no wonder he can write a quatrain that is not afraid of being smashed to pieces, and wants to stay innocent in the world!"

Having said that, Zhang Dianchen secretly sighed.

Originally under Wei Huang's order to secretly make Cheng Ling famous, Zhang Dianchen actually felt a little envious in his heart.

Although knowing such a famous name may not necessarily be a good thing, too high a famous reputation may also bring some unpredictable dangers! But Zhang Dianchen was still envious.

Readers, what do you want? Isn't it just a name before and after?

A certain person in Zhang is not exempt from customs.

However, this time, after listening to Cheng Ling's "Lime Yin" and repeatedly chewing the lines in his heart, Zhang Dianchen felt a little bit ashamed.

Although Cheng Yuzhi is young, he is very intelligent. "He" may have noticed the invisible crisis brought about by such a reputation like burning oil.

Otherwise, how could the poem say "A raging fire burns like idleness"?

How come "you are not afraid of being smashed to pieces"?

Needless to say, a quatrain has already shown the ambition!

This poem not only chants things and aspirations, but also has the courage of a lonely hero.

When to be generous, how heroic!

At this moment, Cui Ming who was standing next to Zhang Dianchen also sighed suddenly.

Cui Ming said: "We despised Cheng Yuzhi because he was promoted out of the norm. But I didn't know that this person was full of integrity, and he was full of elegy! This time, I was wrong, and I shouldn't underestimate the world's top scholars!"
