Chapter 32 Orientation

Qiu Wanshan, the old dog who steals articles!

This yell was not loud, but not quiet either.

After the people around heard it, they suppressed laughter but did not dare to laugh out loud.

Qiu Wanshan was ashamed and angry, while Chu Qing looked sideways.

The person who scolded Qiu Wanshan was an old man, wearing a Confucian robe, with a thin figure, rosacea, and gray beard and hair. As soon as he opened his mouth, many scholars greeted him.

"Mr. Li is in good health."

"Student Zhao Xiaopeng met Mr. Li."

"Mr. Li..."

This Mr. Li is fifty-five years old this year. His famous name is Li Heming, and he is a famous Confucian scholar in Beijing.

What is a scholar? Those who cannot be punished as officials are called scholars. What is a great Confucian? Those who criticize the court's shortcomings and criticize high-ranking officials are called great Confucians.

Li Heming was not an official, but he was a great Confucian, a great Confucian who even many high-ranking officials in the court would perform discipleship ceremony upon seeing him.

Qiu Wanshan is a high official in the court. He does not want to practice discipleship. He should practice grandson ceremony, because he is treated like a grandson by Li Heming every time.

In fact, the two of them had little contact at first. It can only be said that Qiu Wanshan had the same ideas.

Two months ago, Li Heming also wanted to compete for the essay list, but he didn't follow the formal procedures. He wanted to play pretend, slap him in the face, pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger. He thought hard and wrote a poem without using his real name, and asked the servants in the mansion to send it to him.

Come and compete.

How could Qiu Wanshan know a servant? He thought he was a poor scholar from out of town. After listening to his poems, although they were not as good as Tao Yi's, they were still good works. Then he secretly wrote them down and changed a few words back to the house.

, take it as your own.

After losing the battle, Li Heming did not dare to publicize it.

As a result, more than a month later, Qiu Wanshan pretended to be stupid and read out the revised poem, which was praised by many people.

After Li Heming learned about this, he realized that the poem was written by himself, and he just changed a few words.

This made Lao Li angry, so he called Qiu Wanshan a thief and a thief of poems when he met everyone, and the relationship between the two was finally settled.

"Why, Lord Qiu is here to steal again?" Li Heming raised his voice and looked around: "Everyone, please be careful. If you really have a masterpiece, don't let Lord Qiu, the right minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Qiu Wanshan, listen to it.

, otherwise, after a few days, your masterpiece will become Mr. Qiu’s."

"Stop spitting blood!"

If it had been anyone else, he might have wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in, but who is Qiu Wanshan? If you buy half a catty of kelp, you have to worry about the boss asking for three crabs. Face, haha, does not exist.

"Li Heming, I respect you as a famous scholar in the capital, and I don't want to argue with you. However, you have said that I have plagiarized my articles to others, and you have done so many times. What are your intentions, and why do you want to tarnish my reputation?"

"How brave!" Li Heming slapped the table: "How dare you show off your authority with me."

Chu Qing quickly sat up straight and entered the state of watching the excitement and eating melon.

He didn't know the cause and effect, but he knew what kind of birdman Qiu Wanshan was, and the old man was probably right.

"Although I bend over my desk and do my official duties every day, I am also a person who has read the Four Books and Five Classics. It's just a few poems. If you can do it, why can't I do it?"

With Qiu Wanshan's righteous demeanor, people who don't know the inside story would really think that this guy has some ink.

"I haven't said anything about you, but you dare to slander me like this. Li Heming, don't blame me for being rude if you pester me again."

Li Heming refused to give in and sneered again and again: "All the adults in the court are not familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics. Only you, only you Qiu Wanshan, you are just relying on your business and your in-laws to get to this high position shamelessly. You are so shameless.

How dare you speak so loudly to me."

He doesn't hit people in the face, he doesn't scold people, he doesn't curse his mother. Let alone, if it weren't for Mrs. Qiu Wanshan's mother-in-law's family, that is, the Shang family, he really wouldn't be able to become the right minister of the household department.

"Who do you think you are? You have been teaching at Yushan Academy for several years and have met many princes and nobles. You have been pretending to be a teacher all day long, cheating and gaining fame."

Originally, everyone came to see the announcement list, but now they don't, and they just watch the two people quarreling.

Revealing the list of articles is not as satisfying as exposing the shortcomings of big names.

"good good good good!"

After saying "yes" four times in a row, Li Heming was extremely angry and laughed: "Master Qiu is very talented. Well, it just so happens that I am here to compete for the essay list today. In this case, you and I will compete. If you don't have the talent to learn a poem,

If you are unable to create a masterpiece, you are just a deceitful person who steals your reputation. I will let everyone in the capital know about your ugly face, Qiu Wanshan."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Wanshan's arrogance suddenly dropped by three points.

If he could compose poems, why would he be here? It would be better if he went home and composed a few poems.

"This... I am busy with official duties all day long. I don't have any spare time. I must write a masterpiece..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Heming interrupted with a sneer: "I only composed one song. I don't want to take advantage of you. I improvised four more songs. I have five songs. You only need to compose one. Mr. Qiu, could it be that I didn't take advantage of you?"

Can’t even compose a poem?”

As soon as he finished speaking, many scholars who were watching the excitement and were not afraid of big troubles applauded him. Suddenly, there was a wave of flattery, saying that Li Heming was a scholar and a rich scholar, and he started to boo and set up rice seedlings.

This is "the law does not punish the public".

If there were only two or three scholars who praised and suppressed each other, how dare they do it? They were deeply afraid of being missed by Qiu Wanshan.

But there are at least thirty or forty people on this floor, so Qiu Wanshan can't settle accounts one by one.

Qiu Wanshan's face was red, and even though he was usually eloquent, he was still riding a tiger now. Let's go, this matter will definitely spread. If you don't go, let alone writing poems, he would be wet just sitting there.

Chu Qing also exclaimed, slapping the table: "That's good, come on, Mr. Qiu, show me your hand, and everyone will chirp."

What he likes most is watching big shots get embarrassed.

Qiu Wanshan glared angrily.

Where the hell are you from!

In the end, it was a good thing that Chu Qing didn't speak. When he did, Li Heming glanced at him and hummed: "Birds of a feather flock together, looking at you, and you are walking with Qiu Wanshan, I guess you are flattering a shameless person."

Chu Qing looked shocked: "Let me go, you can tell at a glance that I am a flatterer, am I so powerful?"

Li Heming opened his mouth and didn't know how to reply for a moment. Is this a compliment to you?

Unexpectedly, Chu Qing cupped his hands and said with a playful smile: "What a coincidence, boy, I am also familiar with facial expressions. Looking at your facial features, there is a probability that you will not live until the end of the year. Listen to the boy's advice, don't come out and make noises, go back quickly, it's time to eat

Eat whatever you order and drink whatever you want."

Li Heming was furious when he heard this: "How dare you insult me?"

"No, doesn't it depend on the direction of the face? Why, you can see the direction of me, but I can't see the direction of yours?"

Chu Qing still had that playful smile.

He didn't want to offend anyone, especially the so-called Confucian celebrities.

But the problem is that he will be a member of the officialdom in the future. This matter will get out sooner or later. Now he is a nobody, but what about the future?

If I become successful in the future, everyone will say, Oh my gosh, isn't he the kid who came to the building drunk and was scolded by the great scholar Li Heming? At that time, he was like a grandson and was called a flatterer by Li Heming. Now he is in a high position.

It must have come from flattery.

"Well said!" This time it was Qiu Wanshan's turn to slap the table: "Old man, if you can see my face, my dear brother, why can't I cut off your face?"
