In October, it was rainy and rainy in Chazhou. When I sat with the curtain down, I could hear the sound of the rain hitting the bananas outside the window. Luo Mu did not wear an official uniform, but sat down in a Taoist robe. He looked around and found that the restaurant was already overcrowded. The guests came from all over the world, wearing mango shoes and feathers.
After noon, the incense by the window was exhausted. When Luo Mu heard the movement, he straightened up and looked at the door. I saw the oil-paper umbrella swaying slightly, revealing the dark-colored t-shirt underneath. The large sleeves swayed on the knees, and there was a cat lying in the middle, and the exposed wrist bones were delicate and slender and powerful.
Yao Wenyu leaned over on the four-wheeled vehicle and said sincerely, "You seniors have been waiting for a long time."
The small wheel rolled on the wooden board, and Qiao Tianya pushed Yao Wenyu inside. A whispering voice suddenly sounded in the tea room, Ye Li, who had not taken it off before, took it off one after another, and countless eyes were watching Yao Wenyu.
Yao Wenyu stopped in front of the round window.
"Today I am here, all to rush to Xiaoyou Yuanzhuo's invitation to talk." Mr. Qinzhou Mei, who was smoking, looked at Yao Wenyu with his smoking gun, "I haven't seen you for a year, and the little friend's demeanor is far better than before."
The tea was already in place, and the incense stick was lit again.
The so-called clear talk is oral talk. The host and the guest sat opposite each other, never involving officialdom and civil affairs, but only about profound and mysterious things, so Luo Mu did not wear official uniforms today. They have to come and go in the chat room, which not only requires the participants to be knowledgeable, but also requires them to have a beautiful rhythm.
Yao Wenyu was very good at this way of visiting Shanshui, so he was able to respond to a lot of calls and set up a meeting in Chazhou. In the past, he was innovative in his conversation, and was unique in his own way. Because he was born in a famous family but did not become an official, he was far more popular among the hermits than Hai Liangyi.
Mr. Mei has been waiting for half an hour at the banquet, and he will not waste time after the greeting, saying: "I see that little friend has changed."
Yao Wenyu said: "This body is not my body, this change is not my change."
Mr. Mei stopped smoking and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. If you haven't changed, why don't you stand up?"
Yao Wenyu put down the whisk that he had just held in his hand, and said, "I had a chat with my husband in Qinzhou Ya a year ago. Are you standing?"
Mr. Mei said, "Naturally, I'm standing."
Yao Wenyu said, "Then I'm still standing right now."
Luo Mu once participated in the clear talk when he was studying in Dengzhou, but at that time it was a discussion among classmates of the academy, and Kong Ling was also very talented in sophistry. It's just that he didn't know why, Kong Ling didn't come today. The conversation continued during the banquet, the drizzle outside the building continued, and all the people present were calm.
Qiao Tianya leaned back against the door, watching the raindrops splash around the eaves, dyeing the distant mountains slightly hazy. Yao Wenyu's voice was clear and clear, and he was not impatient or impatient when answering, as if the chess pieces he had dropped in the courtyard were knocking one by one in the rain.

Li Jianting sat in his seat and asked Xue Xiuzhuo, "Since Qingtan can convene a group of sages, sir, why doesn't the Taixue have a chat?"
Xue Xiuzhuo put the volumes together and asked, "Who can participate in the clear talk?"
Li Jianting said: "There are scholars in the world."
"No," Xue Xiuzhuo looked directly at Li Jianting, "the world is well fed and carefree."
Xue Xiuzhuo participated in the clear talk, but only a handful of times. The so-called clear talk is empty talk in the eyes of him and Jiang Qingshan and other courtiers. These people neither discuss state affairs nor civil affairs. Talking is the most popular in the thirteen cities of Juexi, followed by the eight cities of Qidu. The reason why Pan Lin and other family members highly respect Yao Wenyu is because Yao Wenyu has rarely been involved in political affairs before, which is a good thing. However, this kind of good must be based on the premise of worry-free food and clothing. After the year of Xiande in Zhongbo, the talk disappeared. Could it be because there are no scholars in Zhongbo? The reason for this is that Zhongbo no longer has enough food to worry about.
Li Jianting thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, what's the use of Yao Wenyu inviting the world's well-fed and worry-free people today?"
Xue Xiuzhuo was silent for a moment, then turned his eyes to see the plantains swaying in front of the window, the rain was so fast, as if it was the day he played chess with Yao Wenyu.

It was already dark outside the teahouse, and the chat was not over yet. Mei is old and tired from sitting at the moment. He competed with Yao Wenyu about "change or not", and drank several cups of tea to moisten his throat.
Mr. Mei cleared his throat and said, "The change I'm talking about is that the body in front of you has changed. Not only that, you have changed, the time has changed, and the world has changed. You are no longer the right person, and you are no longer. It's you a year ago."
All eyes turned to Yao Wenyu, waiting for his answer. But Yao Wenyu slowly lowered his sleeves, saluted Mr. Mei on the four-wheeled vehicle, and said, "Sir, you are right."
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar. This talk is clearly not over yet. They traveled all the way here, just wanting to hear a fight, but Yao Wenyu gave up and conceded defeat on his own.
"The prosperity of the Yongyi years is no longer there, and the Great Zhou is already declining. Now that the northeast is invaded by foreign enemies, and the southwest officials and businessmen are collaborating, how many places in the world can talk about the mysteries of the universe?"
Hearing this, there was a quarrel in the room, and Mr. Mei threw his bong, covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, and said angrily: "Smelly! Smelly! Smelly! Smelly unsmelling, unbearable! How did Yao Yuanzhuo change? When I became Hairen!"
The coffee table was shaking, and someone had already stood up. Luo Mu hurriedly got up, trying to dissuade him, but heard Yao Wenyu in front of the window laugh. He laughed louder and louder, and said, "How serious is the situation of the eight cities embezzling people's land, and dying of starvation on the road is no longer just a dream - I have changed, and the world has changed. How long can I stay the same when you are in it? ?"
Mr. Mei wanted to leave the table, but when he heard the words, he couldn't hold back, and said, "All things will be destroyed if they are not born. There are arrangements for change and change. You change your way and fall into a net of dust. You also want to learn from Qi Huilian and Hai Liangyi. A gentleman!"
Yao Wenyu said, "It's none other than the one who forced me to change today.
Mr. Mei didn't bring it up in one breath, he held the tea table, and said, "Govern by inaction, Taoism is natural! What has Qi Huilian changed? What has Hai Liangyi changed? You step into their example, Yuan Zhuo, Yuan Zhuo! It's useless work!"
Yao Wenyu looked a little restrained, and said, "Since Taoism is natural, then this day will change, and this world will be chaotic. You can continue to stand by, sir, I have abandoned this Tao, and I will enter this chaotic world."
Mr. Mei stomped his feet anxiously and shouted like a child: "No, come back! Come back!"
Xue Xiuzhuo believed that there was a way in the world, and he sacrificed himself for the Dao; there was no Dao in the world, and he sacrificed himself for his life. Master Qi believed in this statement, and Haige also believed in it, but Yao Wenyu was the only one among them. But Yao Wenyu's move today obviously broke his past letting things go with his own mouth, which shows that he has abandoned his original body and become a man of the world from now on.
The raindrops rolled and fell from Qiao Tianya's eyes, dripping into the puddles, and the water splashed slightly, making ripples. A small fish with thin scales leaped out from the ripples, was caught by Kong Ling in Linchi, and threw it back.
Fei Sheng was holding an umbrella, while Kong Ling and Shen Zechuan were wearing bamboo hats and were fishing by the pond.
Kong Ling threw the hook out again and said, "After today, people with lofty ideals should flock to Ibara."
Holding the fishing rod, Shen Zechuan said, "If all people with lofty ideals are so good, how could my husband and I be at odds with each other?"
Kong Ling laughed and avoided answering, only sighed: "Yuan Zhuo's move is a 'redirection' and a 'inheritance', to show the world that Old Haige's legacy still exists in Cizhou, and he is no longer there. It's him before."
"Shenwei's pen and ink is already in place," Shen Zechuan said. "Whether Yuan Zhuo's reputation can be restored in the hearts of students all over the world depends on his lyricism."
Yao Wenyu was initially attacked by students in the Taixue turmoil because of his birth, but now he has parted ways with Mr. Mei and others, and with Gao Zhongxiong's powerful pen, those broken legs can become a sign of Chi. Not only that, but the ensuing question must contain why he came to Ibaraki? If he is a guilty person, why did the court delay sending someone to arrest him? If you think about this problem, you can see that China Bo has been divided.
"Because of the death of Emperor Tianchen, this year's Spring Festival was abandoned, and then Haige died of old admonition, Taixue besieged the officials of the poor family, and many of them resigned. Qidu has to maintain the stability of the three parties this winter," Shen Zechuan shook his fishing rod, " Xue Xiuzhuo has already stepped into the cabinet with half a foot of the crown prince. For this reason, the empress dowager must suppress the practical faction headed by him, and cannot make him a real minister of regent, so when will his promise to the emperor be fulfilled? Yuan Zhuo is from the same family, and now Yuan Zhuo has defected to my command, there must be a hidden situation. Moreover, Li’s failure has long been known, and Fanzhou Yi Wang has not been defeated, and there are many imitators. Xue Xiuzhuo is now If he wants to fight back, he has no ability to do anything, and this winter, no matter what aspect he looks at, he can only be beaten."
"The aristocratic family has made too much trouble," Kong Ling said while holding the fishing rod, shaking his head, "The queen mother refuses to let go of power, and the cabinet has lost the hearts and minds of the cabinet. Xue Xiuzhuo's wings are not full. Solve it. The longer this drags on, the more beneficial it will be to the government."
As they were talking about here, a few days later, Takao Zhongxiong's article spread. The stamina left by Hai Liangyi is not over at all, as long as the statement is sincere, it can cause a lot of sighs. The content of Yao Wenyu's talk in Chazhou is no longer important. The important thing is that even students who are not divided into grains must face one thing.
That is, in the short period of half a year, Qi Du has completely lost the ability to maintain the stability of the world. The person Yao Wenyu turned to was called Shen Zechuan, and Shen Zechuan was a criminal who defected from the capital together with Xiao Chiye half a year ago, but instead of being punished, they were on the rise.
The empress dowager could not move the Qidong garrison, so Han Cheng went out again and asked the Eighth Battalion to send troops to destroy Shen Zechuan in Cizhou. However, the Ministry of War refused to resign on the grounds that all of them were incompetent. The meeting was unpleasant, and as the new year approached, the relationship between the three parties became more and more tense.
When the snow fell, the number of refugees in Benzi and Chazhou increased. While Tantaihu was recruiting the garrison in Dunzhou, Jinyiwei was also recruiting new recruits. Shen Zechuan wanted to put Hai Rigu and Jinyiwei together. By the time Shen Zechuan recovered, it was already December, and just when he was preparing for the New Year's ceremony, Libei ushered in an unprecedented heavy snow.
