Chapter 11 The Great Deception
"My son was impulsive. Please don't take it to heart, Mr. Ouyang ~"
Su Xun was a little anxious in his heart. He looked at his son, Su Shi. Say something. If they were really hated by Ouyang Xiu, would they still be able to take the exam?
"Not me, but Duke An Le. Your son is the one who cut off the words of the Marquis of Anle.”
Ouyang Xiu shook his head slightly.
At this moment, Su Xun hurriedly turned around and bowed to Pang Yu."Lord Marquis, please atone for your sins. My son…"
"There's no need to say anymore. There is a flaw in the character of the word, previously did not ask me, but asked Ouyang Xiu, how clear is the meaning? He apologized for his future career. He had heard that Su Xun of Bashu was obsessed with his career and often wrote articles to pass to the officials in the court to read.
If Ouyang Xiu wasn't here today, you probably wouldn't have apologized. Just like when you walked over just now, you casually said that your son had made a mistake and avoided it. Just now, Ouyang Xiu was unhappy with you. You didn't apologize to me but apologized to Ouyang Xiu.
All of this has proved that you are obsessed with your career and everything you do is for fame and fortune. Is this what a scholar does? I won't accept your apology, and I'll spread this matter to the world ~"
Pang Yu looked at Su Xun arrogantly. He wasn't that angry at first. After all, Su Shi was the one who wrote this poem in history. However, Su Xun had apologized to Ouyang Xiu and not him. This made him angry. I was the one who was intercepted, but you apologized to Ouyang Xiu. What's the meaning of this?
Are you saying that I'm not as important as Ouyang Xiu?
After saying that, he looked at Su Xun with a mocking expression and said,"You probably only know that I'm a marquis, but you don't know who I am, right? Then there's no harm in telling you. My father is the Grand Preceptor and my sister is His Majesty's Imperial Consort. I am Pang Yu, Marquis An Le.
Since you're so obsessed with your career, then don't enter the career path in this lifetime. Remember, this was what I, the Marquis of Anle, Pang Yu, said. People like you who are obsessed with fame and fortune will only be people who covet glory and wealth once you become an official in the future ~"
"Thump ~ Thump ~"
Su Xun took two steps back, his eyes filled with shock, despair, and fear.
He had originally thought that Pang Yu was only the descendant of a founding hero. This kind of founding hero generally did not have much power now. After all, the Song Taizu had given up his military power in the past!
Even if they had some power, it was the military's and had nothing to do with the imperial court.
Who knew that he was the son of the Grand Preceptor, the current uncle of the country. This weight was different. If he really said something to Grand Preceptor Pang, Grand Preceptor Pang would cross out their files, and they would not be able to go to high school.
The imperial examination was the most important part of the capital examination, the court examination.
They had participated in the court examinations before this, and the emperor had personally selected the top scorer, the top scorer, and the second scorer.
However, this did not mean that their examination papers were read by the emperor. The examination papers were collected by the important officials of the court, and then the top three were selected and sent to the emperor. The emperor personally wrote the number one scholar, the number two scholar, and the number two scholar.
Therefore, the top scholar and others were also known as the Son of Heaven's disciples.
"Scared? It's too late. You want to enter the official career with a bad character. You're really daydreaming!"
Pang Yu curled his lips, looking frivolous.
Bao Zheng patted his forehead at the side. This Pang Yu's silkpants appearance appeared again. He could only blame the Su father and son for their own problems. This was not Pang Yu's fault. If he was intercepted by others, he would also be angry.
"I say, old man Ouyang, you can't go back on your words. Although someone else intercepted the words, I finished it.”
Looking at Ouyang Xiu, Pang Yu chuckled. Ouyang Xiu's calligraphy and paintings were extremely valuable even now, let alone being passed down.
"Haha, of course I won't go back on my word, but there's one thing I don't understand. Earlier, he had heard that An Le Hou was an uneducated and incompetent hedonistic son, but now that he had seen him, he didn't know that An Le Hou was also a talented person. However, Marquis An Le was so talented, so why didn't he seek fame to serve the court?”
Pang Yu squinted at Ouyang Xiu. This old man didn't believe that he was the one who did it.
The surrounding young men and women also looked at Pang Yu curiously, as if they were also very interested in this question.
"Why do you want to take the exam? In my eyes, fame and fortune are fleeting clouds. I'm already the country's uncle, so why do you want to take the exam? If I want to serve the imperial court, I don't have to take an official rank, right?”
Pang Yu pointed at these people and said with a look of 'you guys don't understand'. He was just short of saying that you guys were a bunch of official fans.
Ouyang Xiu shook his head slightly." If Marquis An Le can compose another poem, I'll give you two paintings. You can decide on the second one. How about it?"”
"If you don't believe me, then don't believe me ~"
Pang Yu curled his lips. But so what if you don't believe me? I plagiarized, so show me the evidence!
"Brush and ink…"
Pang Yu casually extended a hand and said.
Ouyang Xiu smiled and placed the brush in his hand. A piece of paper was also spread out in front of him.
He picked up the brush and started writing on the paper. He had only written a few words when he heard a slight surprised sound coming from the side. This was not a small number. At first, Pang Yu felt that they were surprised. When he looked at it later, he was indeed surprised.
"Marquis An Le indeed has a unique flavor to it. It makes people wish they could throw it into the furnace and burn it ~"
Bao Zheng stroked his beard as he gnashed his teeth.
"Blackie Bao, what are you looking at? I'm asking you to read poems, not calligraphy. What's so good about calligraphy?”
Pang Yu was furious. You guys have been holding brushes for decades, but this bro doesn't hold brushes for more than a month. If you have the ability, let's compete on the keyboard ~
After a long time, he finished writing. Pang Yu looked at the poem on it and couldn't help but be intoxicated.
" That's great! I really admire myself! Sigh, it's really lonely at the top. I feel like I'm at my peak tonight!"
Pang Yu had a smug look on his face. Bao Zheng curiously came over and couldn't help but recite.
"The Peach Blossom Monastery in the Peach Blossom Cove, under the Peach Blossom Immortal.
Peach Blossom Immortal planted peach trees and plucked peach blossoms to exchange for wine money.
When sober, I sit in front of flowers; When drunk, I sleep under flowers.
Half drunk and half awake, day after day, flowers bloom and fall year after year.
I wish I could die of old age among flowers and wine, unwilling to bow in front of chariots and horses.
The rich enjoy the dust of chariots and horses, and the poor enjoy the wine and flowers.
If you compare wealth with poverty, one is on the ground and the other is in heaven.
If you compare poverty with chariots and horses, he can drive me to leisure.
Others laughed at me for being too crazy, while I laughed at others for not being able to see through me.
I can't see the tombs of heroes in the five mausoleums. There are no flowers, no wine, no hoes, no fields.”
"The poem is a good poem, and it will bring out the best in Marquis, but this poem is not suitable to be passed on.”
Pang Yu stroked his beard.
"I'll take a look ~"
Ouyang Xiu was also itching to read it out loud.
"Haha, Lord Marquis is a great talent. This old man admires you. A sentence like 'others laugh at me for being too crazy, but I laugh at others for not being able to see through me'. For the sake of fame and fortune, he spent ten years in the cold window. Once he was frustrated, half of his life was sad. Once he was proud, he laughed for half of his life. Since Lord Marquis has seen through this matter so thoroughly, this old man will abide by the agreement and gift Lord Marquis two paintings ~"
Ouyang Xiu laughed loudly. The surrounding youths and young ladies all came to a sudden realization. They looked at Pang Yu with adoring gazes, which made him feel very proud. He glanced at the girls from the corner of his eyes and laughed in his heart. It was the right thing to come to the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival tonight.
