Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 207 Chen Zhi, his skills stop here [Third update, debt repayment 6]

"I have been to Wuyuan County several times. Although there are many traveling merchants, I don't see them in such a hurry. Could something have happened?"

Looking at the people coming and going, Cao Qing showed doubts.

"Could it be Sun Dao again?" Xun Zhe guessed. After what happened at Buchu Temple, he was a little attracted to Chen Zhi. "Calculating the time, Chen Zhi happens to be right in front of us. Maybe he is in Wuyuan City." What deeds have been left behind, or have not left yet.”

"Very likely." Cao Qing couldn't help but nodded, looking a little unnatural.

But Sun Min laughed: "Ask someone and you will know, right?" He jumped off the carriage before others could react.

Just then, a man dressed as a businessman came face to face, walking in a hurry.

The man saw the convoy and showed doubts, but he only glanced at it for a few times before looking away, and then he was about to bypass the convoy and head to the county seat.

However, Sun Min had already stopped in front.

"Brother, what are you doing in such a hurry? What happened in the city?" Sun Min said with a smile.

The merchant man was blocked in his way. He was a little annoyed and wanted to curse. But seeing Sun Min's demeanor and clothes, he knew that he was not an ordinary person. Looking at the guards of the convoy, he rationally withdrew the curse and said with cupped hands: "This gentleman, are you stopping here just to ask about things in the city?"

"Exactly." Sun Min nodded.

When the merchant heard this, he added: "Looking at you gentlemen, you are so tired. You must have come from other places. You don't know what's going on in the city. It's not surprising, because this only happened in the past two days."

"In the past two days?" Sun Min paid attention, and everyone in the car also came out. They pricked up their ears and listened. Everyone had their own guesses. They all knew that they had something to do with Chen Zhi, and they suddenly felt complicated.

After passing the temple, everyone's views on Chen Zhi changed. The two convoys, one in front and one behind, were heading to Qingzhou. They didn't want to listen to Chen Zhi's actions along the way.

"Chen Zhi can't leave something like a letter on a temple wall in Wuyuan County again, right?"

This is the voice of the people.

Although the temple on the mountain is small, with the background of the abbot, Chen Zhi's letter on the temple wall has the foundation to spread. And the scholars' study tours will continue to spread their names, some of which have a great impact, which is enough. The above-mentioned history books, and what makes everyone unhappy is that they have become a supporting role in this incident. The lessons from the past are close at hand, and of course they do not want to happen again.

The key point is that Chen Zhi's people are not here yet, and they can't find anyone to talk about Taoism.

Seeing the extraordinary demeanor of all the people, the merchant was secretly startled, hurriedly saluted, and then said: "Two days ago, the top-ranking figures of the Chen family in Pengcheng arrived, and that Mr. Chen went out to study. The descendants of the family, as well as the sons and nephews of Mr. Tao Kan and Mr. Tao, are really..."

"We all know this," Sun Min looked at him with a half-smile, "As you can see, we came from the south, so of course we know about Chen Zhibei's study trip."

"It turns out that Chen Junzi is one of the few people in our Xuzhou who must be of the highest quality. When I talk about him, I can't control myself." To get to the point, "I went there in such a hurry just to take a look at the three-character post."

"Three-character calligraphy?" Sun Min was confused, but he was confident. As soon as he heard this, he knew it was related to calligraphy, and it was probably Chen Zhi's work.

The others also looked at each other, and their thoughts became clear.

"The meaning of this statement seems to be that Chen Zhi wrote a calligraphy, so it doesn't matter. We all know that his calligraphy is good. No matter how good his writing is, it will certainly make him famous because of some interesting stories about his calligraphy. But after all, it is not as good as talking about Buddha in the temple."

Next, according to what the merchant said, everyone understood the cause and effect. It turned out that Chen Zhi's motorcade arrived two days ago and left yesterday.

"That day when the caravan came, there was Wang Xi from the Wang family leading the way. When the gentleman from the Chen family arrived, people from inside and outside the city rushed to see the scene. Even the county magistrate held a banquet in Fenglou to entertain all the gentlemen. That scene was really exciting. , It's a pity that I was not in the county and could not see it with my own eyes." The merchant showed regret when he spoke.

Sun Min smiled and asked: "Was the three-character post written during the banquet?"

But the merchant shook his head and said: "After the banquet, everyone went out of the building and met a child. This child was less than ten years old, but he was well-behaved and sensible. He was selling copybooks along the street. I heard that it was written by his father."

"Oh?" Sun Min was a little surprised by this result, "Is it because of this boy that Chen Zhi wrote that three-character note?"

"Yes and no," the merchant was interested in seeing the children of the aristocratic family in front of him, and he was also interested in telling the story. "I heard that this boy's family was miserable. His father was a famous scholar in the countryside. He was disabled during the war and his family was in poor condition. After his death, his wife was taken back to her parents' home, and she could only make a living by writing calligraphy books. However, he was disabled and could not do it himself, so he wrote calligraphy books at home, and then his three sons sold them. What Chen Junzi and the others saw that day , it is the eldest son."

Sun Min understood a little bit, but there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes, and he said: "So that's it. There seems to be a story in the three sons and the three-character post. Is it Chen Zhi who took the initiative to help?"

The merchant said: "The three-character post was written by Chen Junzi, but it was not Chen Junzi who took the initiative to help, but Liu Junzi from the Liu family in Pengcheng who begged. This Liu Junzi saw the misery of the three children and couldn't bear it, but also admired their filial piety. I asked Chen Junzi to write the ‘Ji Xiao Xing Zhang’ in the Book of Filial Piety for the three children.”

Sun Min asked in confusion: "Since it is a chapter of the "Book of Filial Piety", why is it called a three-character post?"

The merchant had long expected that he would ask this question, and said with a smile: "Well, I heard what others said. I haven't seen it with my own eyes, so I don't dare to talk nonsense. Aren't you anxious to see something? I heard that that family, Now you can display the poster at home and see it. The mystery of it can only be understood by you, the gentleman, by going there and seeing it yourself."

When he said that Sun Min was okay, Wei Ou and others suddenly became worried again, worried that Chen Zhi would make some noise again. If that was the case, they might have to change their route to the north and take a longer detour.However, there were also Ming Fa Seng, Cao Qing, Xun Zhe and others who wanted to see more, but they were either dissatisfied or curious.

As the merchant was talking, he was suddenly startled when he saw a group of people at the gate of the city. The magistrate of Wuyuan County and the heads of many aristocratic families were rushing over and headed straight to where he was.

Sun Min confessed his crime and went to greet him.

Then, there was a welcoming scene. The merchant was shocked and confused. When the convoy entered the city, he smacked his tongue and said: "Good guy, it turns out that this team has a bigger background! The gentleman of the Chen family is just a banquet hosted by the county magistrate. , this time the county magistrate personally welcomed him out."

Thinking of this, he secretly felt happy that there was nothing rude or impolite just now, but he immediately felt regretful.

"Forgot to ask about the origin of that gentleman just now. When you brag to others from now on, you can't help but mention his name."

Not to mention what the merchant was thinking, Sun Min and Ming Fa Monk entered the city and had a chat and a banquet.

After three rounds of drinking, Sun Min mentioned the three-character post. The county magistrate smiled and said: "I know a few people who want to ask. I have already sent someone to invite the three-character post."

While he was talking, a middle-aged man with difficulty walking came up slowly, with a flattering smile on his face, and presented a copybook. Everyone looked at it intently, and their eyes suddenly lit up.

"Good word!"

Even Monk Mingfa couldn't help but praise him.

"The block letters on the walls of the temple were amazing before, but now this calligraphy is even more eye-opening to me. It is definitely a masterpiece!" Cao Qing was amazed.

Xun Zhe laughed and said: "No wonder the article "The Classic of Filial Piety" is called a three-character post. An article is written three times in regular script, running script and official script. It can indeed be called a three-character post. It is even more rare. Each of these three fonts is worthy of quality, and Chen Shouyi’s calligraphy is truly unique in Xuzhou!”

It turns out that this calligraphy was written in three fonts, so it got the reputation of three-character calligraphy.

Seeing the joy of several people, the county magistrate also laughed. The appearance of these three-character postcards in Wuyuan County was of great benefit to him. They were praised by everyone, and his reputation was naturally more famous. So he said: "These three-character postcards are of high quality." The type of copybook corresponds to the three filial sons of the Zheng family, and this Zheng Wan is their father." He pointed to the person who handed the copybook before and said.

"Oh? Is it your son who is selling calligraphy outside?" Sun Min looked at the man. Just now he noticed that this man had difficulty walking.

Others were circulating the three-character note, and it finally fell into Wei Ou's hands.

When Wei Ou saw it, he couldn't help but marvel at the calligraphy, knowing that it was far superior to him, but he immediately chuckled and whispered: "Chen Zhi's calligraphy has long been known in the north and south of Xuzhou. It's not unexpected. He studied abroad. There will be moves, but this move is no better than the words written on the temple wall, which shocked the master. I waited late, was caught off guard, and couldn't talk to him. Now in Wuyuan County, he can only be famous for his calligraphy, or his skills may stop there! "

Wei Ou thought he knew a lot about Chen Zhi's abilities. The previous encounter in the temple was really an accident. His original intention of this trip was to repair his reputation. Naturally, he didn't want to fall behind in everything. Although he knew that Chen Zhi was very capable, he still said these words Comfort yourself and reassure people. Regardless of whether it is true or false, say it first and then say it later.

As soon as he said this, several friends breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why don't we take advantage of this opportunity and hit the road as soon as possible? If we can catch up with Chen Zhi, we can avoid another accident."

"good idea."

The discussion was firm, and everyone felt relieved. Amidst the joyous singing and laughing, the night fell.

The entire county fell silent.

At the same time, in a forest not far from Wuyuan County, many figures were moving, and there was the faint sound of horses neighing.

Several strong figures swayed, and there was a conversation.

"Brother, do you really want to do it?"

"Even Wang Mi fell into Chen Zhi's hands, can we do it?"

"Yeah, if you want me to see, it's better to go north to join Hu, or go find Wang Jun of Youzhou."

Several people were discussing, but were interrupted by a rough voice.

"You're all here, why don't you have the nerve to hang out in the green forest if you don't vote? We were chased by the young Ran Zhan and had to flee into Qingxu. We wanted to vote for Wang Mi, but Wang Mi was damned to death. But that Chen Zhi, if he stayed in Pengcheng honestly, I would not dare to go, but he actually came out to study. This is a God-given opportunity. He is a piece of fat sent to my door. How can I let it go? Kill him , become famous, and then head north, are you still worried about not having wealth? Let’s rush here, wait here for his motorcade to leave Wuyuan, and then throw ourselves into the trap! "
