Chapter 255 Talking about the Northern Expedition
"Boy, I have seen Mr. Fang Weng." Zhang Qingfeng said respectfully to Lu You.
"Haha, Yang Xiaoyou, I have been waiting for you for a long time." Lu You also greeted Zhang Qingfeng with a laugh.
"Eh? Is this a painting by Yang Xiaoyou?" Lu You's eyes noticed the painting that was drying in the room.
"Father, this is drawn by Yang Sanlang for me." Lu Ziyu hurriedly said to Lu You.
"Yes, the painting is very good. You have to thank me." Lu You's eyes lit up when he saw the painting.
"Well, I understand." Lu Ziyu nodded and replied.
"Yang Xiaoyou, I heard that a picture you painted for an official is worth a hundred gold, but I don't have that much money to pay you!" Lu You jokingly said to Zhang Qingfeng.
"Sir, you are joking, how can you collect money for drawing paintings for your old man? Painting is an elegant thing, and it should not be linked to copper stink. What I admire most is a patriotic person like you. I am lucky to see you, sir. Yes." Zhang Qingfeng said sincerely.
"Haha, you kid..." Lu You pointed at Zhang Qingfeng and laughed.
"Sir, it's getting late, when do you think I will start painting for you?" Zhang Qingfeng said to Lu You.
"Don't you have a photographic memory, kid? There's no rush to paint. Let's have a chat first. You can send the painting after you go back." Lu You looked at the sky and said to Zhang Qingfeng.
At this time, the sun has already set in the west, even if you can paint, you won't be able to paint for a long time. Instead of doing this, it's better to talk.
Afterwards, Lu You told his son Lu Ziyu to say, "Go and buy some good wine and good food. I'm going to have a good drink with Yang Xiaoyou today."
"Okay." Hearing Lu You's order, Lu Ziyu nodded in agreement, and then went to buy food and drinks.
"Yang Xiaoyou, why don't you sit in my study?" Lu You invited Zhang Qingfeng.
"Sir, I dare not refuse to invite you." Zhang Qingfeng laughed.
Then, led by Lu You, the two entered a room.
It is said to be the study room, but it is actually the place where Lu You handles work at home.
It may be that it has not been long since I came to An'an. The layout of this study is very poor. There is only one desk, two armchairs, and some books, paper, ink, pens and inkstones.
After the two entered the study, Lu You moved his seat for Zhang Qingfeng, and the two sat across from the desk.
"Yang Xiaoyou, is this the poem you wrote?" Lu You asked Zhang Qingfeng as he took out a few sheets of paper filled with calligraphy from a stack of manuscripts.
Zhang Qingfeng took it and looked at it, and saw that it was written by him, Linjiang Immortal, Rolling Waters of the Yangtze River East, Thoughts on the Pure Sky, Sands, and Autumn, and Song of Haiyan.
"Yes sir, I'm right to write these." Zhang Qingfeng nodded towards Lu You.
"These poems you wrote are all very good." Lu You praised Zhang Qingfeng.
"Mr. Xie's compliment." Zhang Qingfeng said modestly.
"How did you write this Haiyan song? How did you think of writing it like this?" Lu You asked Zhang Qingfeng.
"This..." Hearing Lu You's words, Zhang Qingfeng thought for a while and said, "Sir, in fact, many ordinary people are illiterate, and they can't understand many poems, so I thought, can I write a poem in vernacular?" , a poem that can be understood by ordinary people who are not literate, so there is this song of Haiyan."
"So that's how it is." Hearing Zhang Qingfeng's explanation, Lu You nodded and said, "I once heard that the Xiangshan layman in the previous dynasty wrote poems in pursuit of being easy to understand. After writing poems, he must read them to ordinary people. If ordinary people can understand Stay, change it if you don’t understand, your poems are similar to Layman Xiangshan’s.”
"Sir, it's absurd. How can you compare with Xiangshan Layman." Zhang Qingfeng said very modestly.
Next, Zhang Qingfeng and Lu You discussed the hot topic of poetry.
Lu You found that Yang Sanlang in front of him remembered many ancient and modern poems, even the poems written by Lu You himself, Yang Sanlang also knew a thing or two.
Yang Sanlang in front of him was very insightful in terms of poetry, but what made him a little confused was why Yang Sanlang, who could write such good poetry, could not pass the poetry test in the examination room?
"Boy Yang, I found that you are very talented, but why didn't you even pass the government examination?" Lu You directly asked the doubts in his heart.
"This..." After hearing Lu You's words, Zhang Qingfeng thought for a while and said, "Sir, I write poetry. Sometimes I can write it when I have inspiration. When I don't have inspiration, it is difficult to write poetry. In the examination room, I was asked I can’t do it by composing it on the spot in a specific form.”
Hearing Zhang Qingfeng's words, Lu You nodded and said, "There are many people like you, who can write some pretty good poems in normal times, but when they want to write a poem, they can't do it for several days. It's hard to write a word."
"That's it." After hearing Lu You's words, Zhang Qingfeng nodded quickly, saying that he was such a person.
"Yang Sanlang, what do you think of the imperial court's Northern Expedition?" Suddenly, Lu You asked Zhang Qingfeng.
"This..." Zhang Qingfeng didn't expect Lu You's topic to change so quickly, so he couldn't help being stunned.
"If I conquer gold in the Great Song Dynasty, do you think it will be successful?" Lu You continued to ask Zhang Qingfeng.
When Lu You asked this question, he must have wanted to hear Zhang Qingfeng say that he could succeed, but Zhang Qingfeng didn't follow Lu You's words.
"I'm afraid..." Zhang Qingfeng shook his head and said after thinking for a while.
Before he crossed over, he checked the historical materials of the Song Dynasty in detail.
Although the Song Dynasty looked very wealthy, the entire court was rotten to the root.
Especially in the Southern Song Dynasty, in the court, almost none of the ministers who were the main combat faction ended well.
Yue Fei, an official of the main combat faction, was killed, and those who were better, such as Xin Qiji and Lu You, were also exiled for many years.
It is now 1201 A.D., and a major event will happen a few years later. Han Yuzhou, a minister of the main war faction, was killed by Shi Miyuan, a minister of the main peace faction, and others because of his persistence in the war of resistance. of forgiveness.
The most ridiculous thing is that the official history of later generations even included Han Tuozhou in the ranks of treacherous ministers, because Han Tuozhou attacked Neo Confucianism, and both Ming and Qing dynasties were dominated by Neo Confucianism.
Let me ask, if Han Yuanzhou is a traitor, how come Qingliu like Lu You and Xin Qiji get so close to Han Yuanzhou?
Han Tuozhou's reputation was not until after the founding of New China in later generations, when Confucianism was annihilated, and history did not rectify Han Tuozhou's name.
How can a country that can send the heads of officials in the main battle to the enemy country to ask the enemy country for forgiveness, how can it have a future?
So Zhang Qingfeng said that the Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty was almost impossible to succeed, because there were too many people behind it.
After Han Yuzhou was killed, there were no complaints among the people, even if there were, they were very few.
From the above, it can be seen that the officials and common people in the Southern Song Dynasty were content with enjoying themselves, and had no intention of going to the Northern Expedition at all.
After Han Tuozhou's death, the Southern Song court no longer had a main combat faction until the Southern Song Dynasty finally perished.
In the eyes of many people, whoever wants to go to the Northern Expedition to destroy the stable and united life of the people of the Song Dynasty is a sinner.
From Zhang Qingfeng's point of view, although Han Yuzhou was not a loyal minister because he also had his own selfish intentions, he was not a traitorous minister either.
The Southern Song Dynasty killed Han Tuozhou and asked Jin Guo to forgive him, but he was just idling along, and he was going to be destroyed in the end.
Therefore, Zhang Qingfeng did not intend to become an official. Fortunately, the mission given to him by the system was to become an entertainment star, not to help the Song Dynasty to unify China in the Northern Expedition, otherwise he would really give up the mission directly.
On the other side, upon hearing Zhang Qingfeng's words, Lu You's complexion was a little bad.
He asked Zhang Qingfeng: "Why do you think the Imperial Northern Expedition cannot succeed?"
