"Far above the Yellow River, among the white clouds, there is an isolated city called Wanren Mountain. Why should the Qiang flute complain about the willows? The spring breeze does not reach Yumen Pass."
Another popular masterpiece was chanted from Xu Yunyan's mouth, and Xu Guichang was even more shocked.
"Brother Xu Ying is worthy of being a great literary master. I would like to thank you for your literary skills."
However, after Xu Yunyan and Xu Guichang greeted each other here, a man dressed as a scholar suddenly stepped forward and fisted.
"I have met my two brothers, Wang Huan, of Luoyang."
After he said his name, Xu Yunyan was startled.
It’s embarrassing, isn’t it too embarrassing?
Have you met the author of this song "Liangzhou Ci"?
Wang Huan? Oh, no, the author's name is Wang Zhihuan, and he shouldn't have been born yet at this time. It's so dangerous, so dangerous.
"It turns out to be Brother Wang. I wonder what happened to Brother Wang?"
Xu Yunyan asked this question in order to solve the embarrassing scene in front of him.
Wang Huan said directly, "I just heard two brothers reciting poems and arguing with each other, and I felt a certain unkindness."
When Wang Huan said this, Xu Yunyan and Xu Guichang became a little curious. "What's the point of being unkind? Just tell me."
Wang Huan felt even more embarrassed this time, but after some hesitation he still said, "Besides, I was invited to attend the triennial cultural conference in Qufu, Shandong."
"Participating in a cultural conference in Qufu, Shandong?"
Xu Yunyan and Xu Guichang looked at each other a little bit. They had never heard of this. Are they really serious scholars?
"How come Xu Guichang doesn't know? But I'm a martial artist, so it's no big deal if I don't participate in this cultural gathering."
Xu Yunyan was thinking here, and Wang Huan went on to say, "I wonder if the brothers who are going all the way east along the river are going to Shandong to participate in this cultural conference. If they are going to attend the cultural conference, how about we go together?"
Wang Huan said it well. Xu Guichang had nothing to do and was traveling here. He said directly, "Okay, since Brother Wang invited me, I will definitely go to the meeting next time. I just don't know what Brother Xu Ying's plan is?"
Xu Yunyan was so embarrassed, "I just can't survive in the north. I went to Chuzhou to join my relatives and friends. When I reached the Yongji Canal from the river, I had to turn around and head south. I might not be able to go down to Qufu."
Xu Yunyan said that I couldn't go to Qufu by myself. Wang Huan and Xu Guichang couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity. If Brother Xu Ying can go to Qufu, he will definitely shine. There is no way he will be in the eyes of some princes and ministers. He will be a candidate for the imperial examination in the future." That’s when you get twice the result with half the effort.”
When Xu Guichang said this, Xu Yunyan couldn't help but sigh, and said in a voice that only he could hear, "I actually don't need to take the imperial examination with you. I'm already an official, and I'm still in the sixth grade." My dear Colonel Xunyi, if I tell you that I once served as the governor of Yunzhou around a third-grade officer, I don’t know what you would think."
But Xu Yunyan just thought about it and spread his hands, looking helpless.
"Thank you both for your kindness. I haven't settled down yet and my sister is accompanying me. I'd better settle them first. If I have time, I'll go to Qufu."
Seeing that Xu Yunyan was so determined not to go to Qufu, Wang Huan and Xu Guichang couldn't help but sigh. However, after sighing, they were still here asking Xu Yunyan some questions about poetry and poetry. This was terrible. Xu Yunyan made a big fuss.
What kind of sin have you done?
They had no literary skills in the first place. They only relied on rote memorization. Now they were forced to become copycats. The two of them were asked to ask for advice on this and that. They almost couldn't hide it. Do they want to Exposed his old background and let them know that he plagiarized? Wouldn't this be an insult to politeness?
Fortunately, Xu Guichang and Wang Huan asked Xu Yunyan for advice. It didn't take long for the sky to darken. Everyone returned to their cabins to rest, which finally gave Xu Yunyan an excuse to relieve himself.
When Xu Yunyan, the Niu brothers and Yue'er were sitting together, eating and drinking in their small room, Yue'er suddenly said something.
"Brother, why did you suddenly change your name? Can't you let them know your real name? They don't look like bad people."
After seeing Yue'er asking this question here, the two Niu brothers reacted suddenly.
"What? Your Excellency has changed your name. Don't you want them to know that you are an official?"
Xu Yunyan nodded, "My identity is a bit embarrassing. You just need to know about it from now on. Try not to mention my identity in front of outsiders."
This moment made the two Niu brothers nod in agreement, while Yue'er, a weird and clever girl, really looked at Xu Yunyan curiously.
"Brother, is your identity strange? No matter what your identity is, you are my brother."
After Yue'er finished speaking, Xu Yunyan laughed self-deprecatingly, while the two Niu brothers next to him started chattering away.
"Oops, I forgot to tell Yue'er."
As soon as the cow eating grass said this, the cow came up the mountain and slapped him.
"How should we talk? From now on, this is Miss. We can no longer call her by her first name. We are all living with adults."
He didn't expect Niu Shangshan to have such a consciousness. Xu Yunyan was a little surprised, but he still said, "We are all brothers, there is no need to act like an adult."
When they said this, Yue'er became even more curious, "Brother, you are an official. Is this true?"
Xu Yunyan looked at Yue'er's inquiring eyes and nodded, "I am indeed an official, and now I am the sixth-rank Qinxunyi Guards School Lieutenant."
"What? Sixth grade? How big an official is this?"
Yue'er was suddenly surprised when she heard this, and the two Niu brothers were equally curious. They knew that Xu Yunyan was an official, but they didn't know what kind of official he was and how old he was.
Now that Xu Yunyan had spoken out, they were also very curious. "How do you say it?" Xu Yunyan scratched his head with one hand and spoke.
"County magistrate! Do you know how big an official you are?"
After Xu Yunyan said the county magistrate, the two brothers Yue'er and Niu nodded hurriedly.
"You know, the county magistrate is the boss of the county. He is a powerful person in the county town."
After they said this, Xu Yunyan coughed awkwardly, "Then my official is a little older than the county magistrate."
"Brother, you are actually older than the county magistrate. How old are you?"
When Yue'er heard that her brother had such a high official position, she couldn't help but cheered, which shocked Xu Yunyan.
"Yue'er, be good, don't yell, it's not good for them to hear. However, your brother, an official who is higher than the county magistrate, is not higher than all the county magistrates. The county magistrate of Chang'an is older than your brother. The officials are even older. What's more, I am a military commander and not a civil servant, so I can't compare with them."
