The banquet lasted until late at night, and because two programs were held in the middle, the banquet process was not dull, but full of fun, and the service from the top and bottom of Lu's house was extremely thoughtful, and all the guests came and returned with all their heart's content.
The second young master very graciously sent Tan Ziqing and the others to the front of the mansion.
Tan Ziqing and He Ruhui walked in a sedan chair, Xue Poye wanted to ride back, but Tan Ziqing pulled him into the sedan chair, and the Golden Lion sent someone to lead him and follow behind the sedan chair.
"Stinky boy, it seems that you are hiding everything, even the old man has been concealed by you." Sitting opposite, Tan Ziqing smiled, stroking his beard, and that smile was even more weird.
This sedan chair is huge and can accommodate five or six people. At this time, the two of them are sitting together, which is very spacious.
There is Ye Zhan Buddha beside Xue Poye. Of course, Ye Zhan Buddha has been wrapped in a special brocade box at this time. As for the cold blade, he has already hidden it on his body. Xue Poye swears in his heart that such a magical weapon will definitely won't let it go.
"Teacher, the students don't want to listen to what you said!" Xue Poye said with a smile: "I'm afraid you know exactly how many hairs the students have on their bodies. What can the students hide from you. You say I am deeply I don’t care if I don’t hide it, I’m honest and honest, I’ve never played the trick of hiding it, please pay attention to it.”
Tan Ziqing laughed, and sighed: "It's not bad to be slick, you can win the first place in civil and martial arts tonight, I am very relieved, at least my eyes have not chosen the wrong person."
Xue Poye's heart moved, and he asked, "Choose someone? Teacher, what do you choose me for?"
Tan Ziqing blew his beard and scolded: "I chose you as a student, what do you think I chose you for?"
"Hehe, the student is just asking, teacher, don't be angry!" Xue Poye still had a playful smile on his face, but he knew very well in his heart that if he only accepted students, it would not be his turn.
"Poye, you also have achievements in martial arts. I am very happy in my heart." Old Tan seemed to be really happy. It's a pity, your intelligence and character are naturally nothing to say, I really didn't expect you to have attainments in both civil and military fields, it seems that God still has mercy on me!"
As he spoke, the muscles on his face twitched, and the circles under his eyes turned red. Xue Poye frowned, not knowing why Lao Tan's reaction was so violent.
Xue Poye is becoming more and more unable to guess the old guy's mind. Although he is sure that the old guy will use him in the end, he doesn't know what kind of thing it will be. It takes a lot of time to watch Lao Tan, not only taking good care of himself, but also supporting him. Master Han, who retired from the Imperial Academy, taught him, and then he had to take the exam to obtain fame. All of this naturally has its far-reaching value. Unfortunately, I don’t know anything at the moment. Looking at Lao Tan’s appearance, I naturally don’t know how to do it. Give a sliver of information.
"Teacher loves you!" Xue Poye said with a chuckle, "I know the advantages of this person myself. If you say that I have no character, I agree with that."
Tan Ziqing moved his body, leaned forward and said: "The courage of a man is hard to achieve in the end. You have the foundation of martial arts, so you should make good use of it. No matter how strong one person is, it is impossible to defeat a hundred people, but you can fend off the enemy if you practice the art of a hundred people Thousands of people, learning the art of a thousand people can defeat ten thousand people, this is the courage of a hero."
Xue Poye touched his nose and said seriously, "What does the teacher mean?"
Tan Ziqing coughed twice, and said slowly: "His Majesty the Marquis of Chu, the founder of the country, started his army from Yongzhou, and Duke Yong followed him closely. From a hot-blooded boy to a famous general, he fought in both the north and the south. He was invincible and made countless achievements. Thinking about it until now, it still makes people feel respectful." , fascinated."
Xue Poye felt a little strange, the old guy changed the topic too quickly, why did he bring up Duke Yong again.
I heard Xiao Suzhen mention that this Yong Guogong is the head of the Situ family and one of the three great royal families of the Great Chu. His ancestors followed the founding prince of Chu to fight in the south and north, and he was regarded as the earliest hero.
"Yong Guogong followed His Majesty Chuhou at the age of thirteen. He was as powerful as an ox and could lift a thousand-jin stone. He was deeply loved by His Majesty Chuhou, but he was a bit reckless. In a heavy siege, although he was brave enough to break out of the siege, the entire army of 3,000 troops under his command was wiped out, which can be said to be a disastrous defeat." Tan Ziqing said in a low voice, "It was also after this battle that Duke Yong suffered a lot. , day and night studying military books, marching and arranging formations, and studying all the geography, mountains and rivers, and eventually became a generation of famous generals, and made countless military exploits."
The "Yong Guogong" he mentioned naturally refers to the first generation of Yong Guogong who followed the Chuhou in the southern and northern wars.
Xue Poye waited for him to finish speaking, and immediately understood the meaning of his words, frowned and said, "The teacher wants me to learn the art of war like Duke Yong?"
Seeing that he understood, Tan Ziqing smiled and said, "That's right, you can form an army of ten thousand people and rule the world."
Xue Poye sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Teacher is too flattering. I'm just a grassroots person. What's the use of learning that art of war. Besides, it's those famous generals who rule the world, and it has nothing to do with me."
Tan Ziqing's face darkened, and he said seriously: "Famous generals are not born, if you don't know the art of war, how can you become a famous general?"
Xue Poye was a little surprised. Listening to what Old Tan said, he seemed to want to cultivate himself into a generation of famous generals. This joke was too big, and he hurriedly said: "Teacher, it's not that the students don't want to learn, but the students also understand. The art of war is not just talking about armies on paper. It requires familiarity with geography, mountains and rivers, adapting measures to local conditions, and there must be enough soldiers to carry out exercises. Just memorizing and reasoning is useless. Students are mere grassroots, and there is no soldier Pawns, why do soldiers practice? If you don’t practice, how can you know the pros and cons of formations and understand the key points?”
After he finished speaking, Tan Ziqing stroked his beard and smiled, nodded and said, "You're right, and you've hit the point. From this point of view, you still have the talent for marching and forming formations. But the old man doesn't expect you to be able to unify the army in a short while." Thousands of troops go into battle to kill the enemy, you should first familiarize yourself with the art of war, then you will have a place to practice in the future, and it will naturally be useful when you use force."
Xue Poye touched his nose and asked, "Then what military book does the teacher want me to read? Sun Tzu's Art of War?"
"Sun Tzu's Art of War is of course one to read!" Tan Ziqing said solemnly: "In addition, the "Chu's Military Book" compiled by Yong Guogong is also a must-read. These are the generals who have made the most contributions to our Great Chu Co-editing is a must-have military book for my Great Chu general.”
Xue Poye broke into a cold sweat. He never thought that there was a "Chu's Military Book" in the Great Chu Kingdom. This is a great thing.
Tan Ziqing glanced at Xue Poye, and continued: "I have both "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Chu's Military Book". You must keep in mind every volume and section of each volume, and when the time comes, I will give you a chance to practice with real soldiers and generals, so don’t let this old man down.”
Xue Poye wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and forced a smile: "Is the Chu family's military book thick? Are there many words?"
Tan Ziqing said with a chuckle: "Not too many, not too many, the single volume is only more than one hundred pages."
Xue Poye frowned, and said in a low voice, "There are more than one hundred pages in a single volume, how many volumes are there?"
""Chu's Military Book" is divided into six volumes, which are for soldiers, formations, lands, generals, joints, and strikes. There are five volumes in each volume, and the total is thirty volumes. This...not many!" He smiled pitifully.
Oh my god, thirty volumes is three thousand pages, and it is still an ancient prose. Let me memorize the three thousand pages of art of war. Fortunately, this old guy can figure it out. I really didn't expect to show his prowess in the Lu Mansion and win the head of archery The name, but it attracted the old guy to force himself to learn the art of war, which was quite unexpected.
As soon as he spoke, time seemed to pass very quickly, the sedan chair had already landed, and someone outside respectfully said: "My lord, we have arrived!"
Tan Ziqing squinted his eyes, stared at Xue Poye for a moment, finally smiled, and said: "The old man will leave in the future, you should take care of yourself in Hangzhou, and come to He Ruhui directly if you have something to do. Uh... If He Ruhui has something to ask you , don't refuse, there are many things the old man told him to do, you just do it."
Xue Poye shook his head and said: "Teacher, it is impossible for him to let me go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of fire, and I have to listen to him, right? This is absolutely impossible."
Tan Ziqing said solemnly: "Poye, of course he won't let you do irrelevant things. You are a smart person, and you should be able to judge which things are from me." Lowering his voice, his expression was gloomy: "If He Ruhui dares to If you disobey the old man's wishes, then he will live to the end."
His voice was extremely cold and chilling.
Tan Ziqing came over again, and whispered: "He Ru will make any moves, you can write to me." After speaking, he had already taken Xue Poye's hand to get off the sedan chair.
The torch is held high at the gate of the government office, it is extremely bright, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the wind is blowing.
He Ruhui stood aside courteously, very humble.
"You go!" Tan Ziqing let go of Xue Poye's hand, waved and said, "I'll send someone back to send you the book of war. After I leave, if you have something to do, come to Mr. He, and he will naturally help you."
He Ruhui hastily stepped forward to hold Xue Poye's hand, and said cordially: "Brother Xue Shi, what the censor said is that if you have something to do, you can come to me, and the officials will do their best to help. Even if you have nothing to do, you should come to the government office often Walk around, you and my brother should get closer."
Xue Poye broke free from his hand calmly, clasped his fists together and said, "Then I'll be your lord!" Turning to look at Lao Tan, seeing that he was a little haggard, he suddenly smiled and said, "Teacher, shall I play chess with you? "
Tan Ziqing was taken aback for a moment, but immediately nodded with a smile.
Of course he understands that this is Xue Poye's wish. Sometimes gold and silver are not needed, but only a kind of like-minded approach is needed, which is a kind of emotional comfort.
"This kid, hehe, very good!" Tan Ziqing thought.
