Chapter 007
Qiao Zhou still took office.
Prime Minister Zhuge Liang taught and encouraged him on the grounds that he had shortcomings and strengths.
He also hinted that Zheng Pu would be recruited to encourage students to study soon, and he would be the primary school student, so that Qiao Zhou would teach and study together with his colleagues.
After this incident spread in Chengdu, many families of meritorious families visited Qiao Zhou and asked for copying the "Thousand Characters" while also asking Zheng Pu what he was like.
Qiao Zhou didn't know whether he really wanted to make Zheng Pu famous or deliberately aroused others' jealousy, but he immediately spoke up. "In the past, there were rumors in the prefectures and counties. Cheng Gonghong from Brazil, Yang Wenran from Jian, Yang Jiru from Ba County and Zhang Boda from Shu County were both the best in Bashu. Today, Cheng Gonghong has not yet presented his grief, but he met Zheng Zijin again. Even though he met for several days, he could be said that there are many virtuous places in Bashu!"
Such words can be said to have a stone stirred up a thousand waves!
Because the four people mentioned by Qiao Zhou were Zhang Biao, the son of Zhang Song, who was a son of Yizhou, and Cheng Qi, the son of Cheng Ji, who was a son of Yang Xi and Yang Tai, who were both famous at a young age and were known as the rising stars of Bashu.
They have all embarked on the career of officialdom and are highly valued by Prime Minister Zhuge Liang. They are famous for their talent and virtues.
Among them, Cheng Qi died of illness a year ago.
Now Qiao Zhou actually said that after seeing Zheng Pu's talent, he felt that the name of the "Four Scholars" could still be spread.
Comparing Zheng Pu, Cheng Qi and others.
The most intriguing thing is the prefix of "meeting for a few days"!
After only a few days of meeting, I naturally don’t have a deep understanding, but it is enough to make Qiao Zhou think that his talent and knowledge are comparable to Zhang Biao and others. What if I have a deep friendship with him and know more about Zheng Pu?
Will it be concluded that Zheng Pu's talent is still above Zhang Biao and others?
Therefore, for a moment, the eyes of the sages and common people of the court and the people were attracted by this matter and became a group discussion after dinner.
It also allowed the residence of Changshui Chief Qin Mi to be repeatedly visited and inquired.
It was just because he had a good relationship with Zheng Pu's father before and there were gossips about the gossip that Zheng Pu would come to visit the Qin Mansion with an annotated version of the "Thousand Character Text".
Qin Mi, who has always liked quietness, was very annoying, but she was not able to thank her guests in a closed door.
Those who can come to visit the door without invitation will naturally have the same status as Qin Mi, or they may have a good relationship.
Finally, in a state of trouble, Qin Mi made an excuse to make an official business and stayed at the Prime Minister's Office at night.
Well, the affairs in the North Korea have been quite cumbersome recently.
King Sun Quan of Wu sent Zhang Wen to serve as an envoy as the General of the Supplementary Yi Zhonglang. He will discuss reconciling old hatreds, rebuild the relationship between the two families, and finalize the alliance to fight against Cao Wei.
This matter is related to the national policy of Shu Han, and the court is extremely serious about it.
Qin Mi found such an excuse and avoided answering, which made people helpless.
However, those who are not yet famous for their official positions, or who have many leisure time, have taken a different approach.
He actually invited friends and ran around the riverside outside the north city gate (Zoumahe) all day long, intending to see Zheng Pu first and take the exam for his talent before entering Chengdu.
As for this, the son of Pang Tong, the general of the military advisor, is Pang Hongpang master.
Because his father died of a wandering arrow, he was raised by his first lord Liu Bei at a young age. Now he was sent by Liu Chan, the emperor who was bored in the palace all day long, to see and hear the novel current affairs.
For example, the second son of Jiang Wan, the Dongcai clerk of the Prime Minister's Office, was Jiang Xian, who had not yet become an official.
He was sent to pay attention to Zheng Pu's itinerary so that he could go to Qin Mansion to announce that the provincial government would recruit Zheng Pu to encourage his studies. Well, Jiang Wan had previously served as the magistrate of Shifang County, so Prime Minister Zhuge Liang entrusted him with the matter of recruiting Zheng Pu.
There are also the children and nephews of wealthy families in Shu.
They were sent by their fathers and wanted to copy the annotated version of "Thousand Characters" from Zheng Pu one after another.
However, everyone didn't recognize Zheng Pu's appearance.
He had to follow the example of a blind man touching an elephant. When he saw a scholar who was old and had never met, he asked his followers to come forward to ask for advice and distinguish.
But for several days, Zheng Pu could not be found.
In the boredom and boredom, so many meritorious children and nephews gathered together, inevitably, the spirit of the angry horse and the angry horse were revealed.
First, Pang Hong and Jiang Xian came together because of their friendship.
One of them has been appointed as an official, and the other is about to embark on the career of officialdom. They are both second generations of Jingxiang, who are well-off and have a rare leisure time on the outing, so they simply let their followers set up seats by the river to discuss and defend current affairs with great interest.
When the other nobles saw each other, they followed suit.
It's a bit similar to Dong Shi Xiaopin.
Pang Hong and Jiang Xian were just a glass of water and wine to talk about knowledge; they were better, relying on their wealth and luxury at home, they actually brought many beautiful maids to play silk and bamboo music, allowing the servants to hold banquets and sings, and they were the fun of inviting friends to go outings.
It also made the Beimen Riverside in an instant, as if there was a kind of desolation of being drunk and dreaming.
It was under this situation that Zheng Pu arrived at the north gate of Chengdu City.
As soon as I saw this scene, I couldn't help but feel surprised.
He could not imagine why there were so many young people in the outskirts of Chengdu, the capital, who were idle and idle.
Didn’t it mean that since Prime Minister Zhuge Liang opened his government to govern the government, people at that time were diligent and competed for the competition?
Why do these rich and luxurious children drive cars and horses to gather on the riverside, like playing with Huang Qingcang and cockfighting!
Could it be that the rumors are wrong?
With doubts, Zheng Pu and his followers protected the deer cart and slowly walked into the city gate.
And those who had been waiting for several days saw Zheng Pu passing by, and after just taking a look, no one asked the followers to come forward to inquire.
It's not their fault.
Although Zheng Pu was seven feet and five inches long, his face was like a jade crown, his eyes were bright and energetic, his manners were sleek and peaceful, and he felt a sense of cheerfulness and politeness. When people saw it, they couldn't help but exclaim in their hearts: This boy was very handsome.
But no one will overlap with the person in front of him who made the image of Shuzhong, who was famous for "Thousand Characters".
First, Zheng Pu's dress is no different from the management of a powerful family.
Besides, there were no writing, ink, bamboo slips, poems and books on the simple and cramped deer cart; but there were foods such as pots, gui, and some melons and fruits! In particular, there was a young girl sitting on the deer cart.
Who would choose to take a girl with a scholar who was studying away from home?
This is clearly a rural tycoon with his family on a trip, and by the way to Chengdu City to see the world!
Secondly, Zheng Pu did not protect the demeanor of scholars at all.
Before entering the city gate, he actually ran to the bustling stall outside the city and bought a few "glutinous rice" [Note 1] and "cold tools" [Note 2], and distributed them to the girls and entourages in the car.
Just take a bite and take a step, without any reservation in front of countless people, chewing with relish.
"The Analects of Confucius."
"The town party" says: "If the seat is not upright, you will not sit; if the seat is not upright, you will not eat."
Scholars keep etiquette, restrain themselves, and be cautious in their own self-centeredness.
How could anyone be greedy for the public?
Despicable disciple!
Vendors and pawns!
Unfortunately, this good skin was born in vain!
Everyone felt such regret and looked at Zheng Pu and his party's figures and turned into the city gate.
