The Grandmaster Strategist

"It's a really good painting, the smoke is vast, the lonely boat is lonely, and the brushwork is extraordinary." I nodded indifferently in appreciation. After all, if you have an identity here, you can't be too rude. If you are ecstatic about the gift you receive, you must get It's not like doing things for others, like my status, some things can be done with a hand, and some things, it's better to stand by and watch, although His Majesty is still very wise, but always remember that he is already in his seventies. , I heard that the throne will be passed to the grandson next year. What if he is old and confused and becomes suspicious of an old minister like me? I just want to get a good ending from the beginning and the end. Liu Zhen, the middle-aged man who gave the gift, saw me look like this, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he said cautiously: "My grandfather, my little nephew's father is old and confused, so he shouldn't write books indiscriminately. , and for the sake of serving as a minister in the same hall, I would like to say a few good words to my father, so that the old man can enjoy his old age in peace."

"Really, what book did Brother Wenju write? Let me see it. I really like Brother Wenju's writing style." , I am the champion, he is the second place, but to be honest, I admire his articles very much, the writing is rigorous, and the historical data is accurate. If he is too stubborn, he will not serve the second master. He is the historian of this dynasty. It is definitely something in his pocket. I heard a while ago that he is writing "The History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties", I was eagerly waiting, but there is no news recently. With an embarrassed look on Liu Zhen's face, he took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it over. I opened it and saw the four characters "Southern Dynasty Chu History" written on the light blue cover. I opened it excitedly and read it, completely forgetting that there were outsiders in the room. After I read it in one eye and ten lines, I couldn't help laughing bitterly, Brother Wen Ju really didn't show me any mercy. Lazily putting down the book, he said in a stern voice, "Nephew, go back first. I have to take a closer look at this matter. You know, this old man has not been involved in political affairs for many years."

After seeing Liu Zhen away, I shouted loudly, "Xiao Shunzi, Xiao Shunzi." Following my call, an old man in a green shirt walked in from the door. This person is Li Shun, who has been with me for more than fifty years. He used to be an eunuch in the Nanchu Palace. He is extremely skilled in martial arts. It is said that he has reached the level of a grandmaster. He understands martial arts, but he looks like a middle-aged man even though he is in his early sixties, so it should be true. In the past, some people didn't believe that a master like Li Shun would be loyal to such a helpless scholar like me. I asked with a wry smile, "Liu Kui is a relic of Southern Chu, and it's okay for him to say excessive things. Why are the ministers in the court so important?" Li Shun smiled and said, "I think I forgot, next year, the grandson of the emperor will be The crown princess is your eldest daughter. Who doesn't want to please you? Liu Kui is so stubborn. Either you will always be put in the Erchen Records, or you don't care, the crown princess and the grandson Decent has to be maintained.”

"Yeah!" I suddenly realized, don't look at Liu Kui in "The History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties" that I am "feminine, treacherous, and deep-minded", but who would know that I am a person who is not very sensitive to politics, if it is not Xiao Shunzi's Remind me and my prudence to protect myself, I'm afraid it will be overwhelmed long ago. Thinking of this, I said lightly: "Go and tell Rou Lan, Liu Kui is the only remaining member of the remnant of Southern Chu, why bother him, there are some things that others will say even if he doesn't say it, he wrote to me " "Jiang Suiyun Biography" is a bit sharp, but it is still in line with the facts. He wrote it to prevent others from writing it indiscriminately. Besides, my affairs can't be affected by the grandson, so she doesn't need to worry about it." Xiaoshun Zigong Respectfully withdrew.

I opened up "Jiang Suiyun's Biography" with great interest and read it again. Although I haven't made a conclusion yet, it doesn't matter if I read it in advance.

In the sixteenth year of Xiande, Ding Mao, the lord of the country was victorious, and in the autumn, he recovered from his illness, and he was enlightened. At that time, Suiyun's name had not yet been revealed, and after interrogating each other, they knew who he was.

Jiang Zhe, courtesy name Suiyun, was born in Wushen in the fourth year of the same year. His father Jiang Mu, courtesy name Hanqiu, was a poor boy in Hanqiu, but he was elegant and liu, so his wife loved his daughter. He started his official career and taught his son to study all day long. He was eight years old when he showed his virtue. Jiaxing plagued, and his wife died of illness. Doctor, Sang Chen, the sage of medicine, loves to follow Yun Bo Wen and remembers it, so he gave it to each other. Soon, the cold autumn gradually healed, Sang Chen went to Jiangbei, followed the cloud to serve the soup and medicine, and stayed in Jiangxia for eleven years of Xiande Ren. Xu, died of illness in the cold autumn, there are twelve volumes of "Qingyuan Ji" handed down, elegant and fresh, and people today love it.

He died in the cold autumn, and he was poor and could not be buried. At that time, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, Lu Shou Jiangxia, asked for a teacher for his son, and went to see him with the clouds. When Luhou saw that he was young, it was difficult for him, so he ordered him to write a text. In "Autumn Water Fu", there is "Shaoyan, the moon rises from the east mountain, and hovers among the bullfights. The white dew crosses the river, and the water and light meet the sky. Like a reed, Ling Wanqian is at a loss. The vastness is like Feng Xu. To ride the wind, but I don't know where it ends; fluttering is like being independent from the world, emerging and ascending to immortals." In this sentence, Marquis Lu was shocked, got up and thanked him, and ordered his son to come out and ask his teacher for advice.
