In the end, Gao Yi could only start writing on silk with a brush in hand at Zhuge Liang's strong invitation.
Nearly a hundred words of eloquent words were quickly presented to everyone.
It caused everyone around to fall into silence, and then there was a gasp of exclamation.
This made Zhuge Liang, who was originally going to watch the show, frown a little.
He decisively walked through the layers of people and came to Gao Yi's side.
Looking at the nearly a hundred words written on the piece of silk, Zhuge Liang opened his eyes wide in shock, and with an expression of disbelief, he murmured:
"A gentleman's journey is to cultivate one's character through tranquility, and to cultivate one's virtue through frugality. Without indifference, one will not be able to clarify one's aspirations, and without tranquility, one will not be able to reach far..."
The more Zhuge Liang read, the more frightened he became. By the time he finished reading, his back was covered with cold sweat and his clothes were soaked.
Although there is no first place in literature, there is no second place in martial arts.
But no matter how Zhuge Liang looked at this Han Fu written by Gao Yi, he felt it was extremely perfect.
Adding one character makes it appear more.
Subtracting one character makes it appear less.
Changing one word will cause confusion.
After a long time, Zhuge Liang slowly closed his eyes, sighed, bowed to Gao Yi next to him, and asked: "Mr. Gao, what is the name of this poem?"
Suddenly hearing this, Gao Yi suddenly felt his face burning, and said humbly: "This gift was invited by Brother Zhuge, and I came up with it on a whim. Let's call it "A Gift to Nanyang Zhuge"!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yi felt that he was a bit tongue-tied. This scene was too embarrassing.
This...isn't this taking other people's path and leaving others with no way to go?
How could I, the high-righteous pastor of a state, do such a dirty thing... Oh! So delicious!
Ever since!
The thin-skinned Gao Yi decisively found an excuse to go back to the back hall to attend Liu Biao's banquet. He couldn't stay here for a long time, so he left in a hurry.
Only a towering figure like a mountain is left to the many talented people in Jingzhou, which suppresses everyone's heart and will be indelible for life.
With the departure of Gao Yi.
Zhuge Liang felt extremely depressed, shook his head, and prepared to leave.
"Ah Liang, why are you leaving! You haven't done your homework yet!" Zhuge Mengxue stopped in front of Zhuge Liang and said slightly confused.
"Yes! Third brother, don't leave! If you leave like this, how will Uncle Huang explain it? How can he be willing to marry Yueying to you?"
Looking at the two sisters who tried to stop him.
Zhuge Liang shook his head slightly, his eyes full of vicissitudes and depression, and sighed: "The pearls and jade are in front of me, but the rubble is hard to hold."
"The language of this article is fresh and elegant, the reasoning is approachable, and the writing is concise and precise. It is enough to become an eternal famous article for future generations of students to cultivate themselves and aspire."
"After all, I, Zhuge Liang, am not as good as others, so I won't embarrass myself here."
…
After the banquet, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period of time, Gao Yi was not idle in the library. Instead, he visited many famous people in Jingzhou and wanted to recruit some civil servants and counselors.
After all, Gao Yi's territory is getting bigger and bigger now, and military advisor Chen Gong and his father-in-law Bu Zhi alone can't handle it.
Therefore, Gao Yi decided to take advantage of this free period to recruit a large number of talents in Jingzhou.
At this time, Gao Yi was visiting wise men in the mountains. The person he wanted to visit this time was a well-known counselor and counselor during the Three Kingdoms period.
This man's name was Xu Fu, and he was originally a scholar from a poor family in Yingchuan County. In his early years, he used to avenge his friends in the county, but fled to Jingxiang and now lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests.
In order to escape the pursuit of the government, he also changed his name and called himself: Xu Shu!
In front of a small bamboo house deep in the mountain stream.
Gao Yi was bidding farewell to Xu Shu.
"Brother Xu, it's freezing outside the hospital. You'd better go back home quickly! In half a month, when I leave to return to Xuzhou, I will definitely come and invite you again."
"If at that time, you are willing to leave with me, I, Xuzhou, will never treat Brother Xu badly, and will definitely give Brother Xu a generous salary as a high-ranking official, so that Brother Xu can show his talents."
Xu Shu had some hesitation on his face, and he was also very conflicted in his heart. He wanted a chance to show his ambition, but he didn't want to join Xuzhou's Gao Yi.
"Thanks to your Majesty for looking down on me, but I don't want to leave just yet... Just let me think about it again!"
Looking at Xu Shu's face full of embarrassment.
It was inconvenient for Gao Yi to continue to give advice.
He could only lead a few followers and leave.
After walking out of the mountain stream, Gao Yi raised the corners of his mouth with a sneer, and ordered to the followers around him:
"You guys hurry up and ride your horses, rush to Yingchuan, go to Xu Shu's hometown, and invite his wife over to me."
"I have long heard that Xu Shu is known as a filial son. If he is too soft, we will be tough. I don't see how he can refuse this time."
Wait until a few followers leave.
Gao Yi began to ride horses and wander in the mountains and forests.
When passing by a bamboo forest, Gao Yi suddenly noticed that there was a curvaceous and graceful girl cutting bamboo with a knife, looking at the graceful figure that seemed familiar to her.
A smile appeared on Gao Yi's lips and he said loudly: "What a fate! I didn't expect to meet Miss Huang in this secluded bamboo forest."
Huang Yueying, who was cutting bamboo with a sword, was startled at first, and then looked back and realized that it was Gao Yi. She hurriedly asked in confusion: "Why is the envoy here?"
Looking at Huang Yueying, whose face was still covered with veil.
Gao Yi was curious about what kind of face was hidden behind the veil, but he still had to maintain a humble posture.
"I went out to play and got lost."
Gao Yi pointed to a water hyacinth on the ground, chuckled and said, "I wonder if I can ask the lady for a bowl of water?"
Huang Yueying has been very smart since she was a child, and her intuition is also very keen. She quietly took two steps back.
Because she could faintly see desire in Gao Yi's eyes, and she always felt that Gao Yi had evil intentions.
So, Huang Yueying said in a pleasant voice:
"There is no water in my gourd. There is a clear spring two miles ahead. Lord Messenger, you should go there and drink water by yourself!"
"It's getting late, and my uncle and the others are still waiting for me in front, so the little girl left first."
As soon as she finished speaking, Huang Yueying decisively picked up a few pieces of green bamboo, turned around and walked towards the depths of the bamboo forest.
Gao Yi was not given a chance to continue talking.
Seeing this scene, Gao Yi was quite helpless and said to himself: This little beauty is really cautious. Could it be that in broad daylight, I could still plot evil against a weak female class?
Gao Yi shook his head slightly, and finally decided to drive his horse in the direction pointed by Huang Yueying.
But, after Gao Yi left.
In this bamboo forest, figures suddenly flashed.
Within a moment, more than a hundred black-clad and masked thieves appeared here.
The leader of the thieves was the first to speak: "Xia Houxuan, do you see clearly? Is that person really Shouchun Hou Gaoyi?"
