The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1764 Repeated Questioning

Everyone's attitude was extremely humble, not because Yi Chise was a literary giant, but because he would become a semi-saint in a few years.

Yi Zhishi looked around, walked directly to the chair where Fang Yun was sitting before and sat down.

"Everyone, sit down. Today's protagonists are Fang Xusheng and Zhang Mingzhou. Yi has been looking forward to this day for a long time." Yi Zhishi smiled and picked up the moon cake on the table, broke it in half, held one half for himself, and handed the other half to Silly big rabbit.

Big Rabbit didn't expect that such a big man would give him delicious food. He immediately stood up and took it with his two big paws, and then bowed respectfully, just like a human being.

Yi Zhishi smiled, took the other half of the mooncake and started eating it.

Everyone looked at Yi Zhishi curiously. In their eyes, such a big man should be aloof from the world, but now he actually eats moon cakes in public like him, which is really strange.

Yi Zhishi's movements were very elegant, as if he was defining the word "gentleman".

The eyes of some Baling City women in the distance are shining, because Yi Zhishi is a typical handsome man, with a tall and straight figure and an elegant temperament. He is neither too rough nor too thin. His eyes reflect the starry sky, mysterious and profound, as if they can capture people's souls. Hook away.

Many women blushed and their hearts skipped a beat just by looking at Yi Zhishi's profile. Their eyes were firmly fixed on Yi Zhishi's face. Whether it was his thin black eyebrows, the straight bridge of his nose, or even the curve of his lips, they were fascinated by it.

Only Wu Jun curled his lips and said in a low voice: "I hated his behavior in the past. Tsk tsk, he can eat moon cakes so coolly and calmly, there is no manliness at all! You shouldn't pat your clothes halfway to get rid of the crumbs when eating moon cakes. Really? If he eats moon cakes without any crumbs, is that called eating moon cakes?"

The people around Wujun rolled their eyes. Although Wujun and Yi Zhishi had been friends for many years, they had no personal relationship.

After finishing half of the moon cake, Yi Zhishi looked around, smiled slightly, and said, "What are you looking at Yi? Look at the top. By the way, where is Zhang Mingzhou?"

Zong Ganyu smiled and said: "Zhang Mingzhou has arrived a long time ago. It may be that the Lei family came to visit and it is temporarily inconvenient to come forward. After all, Fang Yun's methods are outraged by people and gods. However, it is precisely because Zhang Mingzhou has not come forward yet that I want to ask Zhishi brother, you Who do you think has a better chance of winning, Mingzhou or Fang Yun? I heard that you like Zhang Mingzhou very much?"

Yi Zhishi looked at Zong Ganyu and said: "It is true that Yi loves some of Zhang Mingzhou's poems very much, but several of Fang Xusheng's poems also make me recite them repeatedly. Others Yi don't dare to say, but the two of them Poetry is far beyond me.”

Zong Ganyu smiled and said: "When it comes to discussing the meaning of scriptures, the two of them are far inferior to you. As for poetry, it is nothing more than a trivial matter. You came to Baling City not just for the literary comparison between the two, right?"

"Of course. Yi went out this time mainly to relax. It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. This Baling City will be the first place."

Wu Jun not far away said loudly: "Qingjing must be your second stop, right? Zhishi, although you have resigned as the Minister of Literature of Wu State, you still have the title and title that I personally canonized. You can't help but Go." Wu Jun looked at Qing Jun provocatively.

"There is a great literary competition between the two countries, so Yi must go." Yi Zhishi said.

Zong Ganyu added: "If brother Zhishi comes to Qingjing, I will definitely welcome him and travel to places of interest with him. However, before that, this literary competition is the most important thing. Brother Zhishi, you There’s no need to hide it, just tell me which of the two has a better chance of winning.”

Many people present frowned. This was the third time Zong Ganyu asked Yi Zhishi to express his opinion.

The first time, Yi Zhishi didn't show up, the second time, Yi Zhishi deliberately changed the topic, and the third time, he continued to ask, the intention was too obvious.

"Master Zong, I'm just here to eat moon cakes and watch a cultural gathering. Why do you need me to differentiate between the two of you?" Yi Zhishi shook his head gently, with a wry smile on his face, as if he was unwilling to participate.

"I don't have any other intentions, I'm just curious. After all, you are a human literary giant, the first person among the semi-saints. If you can make a judgment before the literary competition, you will definitely make this literary conference shine? Everyone, I said That’s right?”

Zong Ganyu said, facing the others, and many people nodded slightly.

Even some people who supported Fang Yun showed curiosity and wanted to know Yi Zhishi's attitude.

"Then, brother Zhishi, please make your prediction." Zong Ganyu said.

Fang Yun's brows frowned slightly, then returned to normal.

Some officials in Jingguo had more or less strange expressions, and they had to make it clear that there was still a slight conflict between Fang Yun and Yi Zhishi.

At that time, King Kang of Jing State was planning to send a gift in order to please Yi Zhishi. King Kang's disciples went to Dayuan Mansion in Jiangzhou for the longevity fruit. The person they were looking for was Mr. Wang, who had taught Fang Yun.

That Mr. Wang fought side by side with Fang Yun and sacrificed ten years of his life with his blood and heart. After Fang Yun returned from the Holy Ruins, he took out part of the life-extension fruit as repayment and gratitude. However, King Kang's disciples actually wanted to take away the longevity fruit that belonged to Mr. Wang. When Fang Yun found out, he became furious and personally broke the man's legs.

Soon after, Yi Zhishi's son Yi Mingtian went to the capital of Jingguo. He was instigated by the young prince and had a misunderstanding with Fang Yun. Although Yi Mingtian had an excellent tutor, he still had a quarrel with Fang Yun because of the young prince. .

To say that Yi Zhishi knew nothing about this matter and did not care at all about his son making a fool of himself in Qing State, the officials of Jing State did not believe it.

What's more, countless people have compared Fang Yun with Yi Chise over the years. Except for a few scholars, most people who only look at the title of the article think that Fang Yun has surpassed Yi Chise. Yi Chise will never care once or twice, but if he still doesn't care after many times, then he is a saint.

These officials were very experienced, and when they saw Zong Ganyu constantly asking Yi Zhishi to comment on the two of them, they guessed that Zong Ganyu knew about the conflict between Yi Zhishi and Fang Yun, and used Yi Zhishi's identity to attack Fang Yun.

These officials secretly sent letters to Fang Yun, asking Fang Yun to be careful and aware of the world.

Fang Yun’s answers were similar.

"It doesn't matter, everyone stands in a different position, looks at things from different angles, and reaches different results."

In the first table, Yi Zhishi actually took another piece of moon cake and started eating it.

"I came here to eat moon cakes!"

Everyone couldn't laugh or cry. It seemed that Yi Zhishi didn't want to offend anyone.

Zong Ganyu said: "It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate! If a literary giant comes to a cultural gathering just for moon cakes, wouldn't it make people laugh! Today, I don't want this old face, but I want to force you to make predictions before the two literary competitions! As the person with the highest status in the literary society, you are really embarrassed to only eat the moon cake? This is the last piece. If you don’t comment on the two of them after eating, I will definitely not give up! "

Seeing Zong Ganyu laughing and joking, most people found it interesting, but some people felt that Zong Ganyu was trying to show his innocence, not against Yi Zhishi, but against Fang Yun!

Yi Chise ate the moon cake silently.

After Yi Zhishi finished eating, Zong Ganyu said with a smile: "Brother Zhishi, whether this old face will stay on your head or be torn away by someone and don't know where to put it, it all depends on your thoughts! You always You can’t stop me from coming to the stage, right?”
