The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

Chapter 137

Sitting behind the case, Zhao Tang looked at the bowl of tea on the case, and was immediately overwhelmed by flattery: "Da Du Tong, Yuan Yi is ashamed not to accept it."

The three people on the opposite side glanced over with swords and swords, and there was nothing on their case.

Tea is an extremely precious thing to the Kingdom of Jin. Apart from buying and selling a few horses with the Song Dynasty in the early years, there is no business relationship. Naturally, there is no trading of tea. Now the tea of ​​the Kingdom of Jin is all from the Liao Dynasty. stolen from the country.

Wanyan Xiyin said: "Yuan Yi, your handwriting is not bad. It can be seen that it is exactly as you said. You have been practicing calligraphy since childhood, but the quality of the handwriting is not what you judge during the imperial examination. How well you write is almost the same. enough."

Zhao Tang held the tea bowl in both hands, took a sip cautiously, and said cautiously: "Da Dutong means that Yuan Yi's poems are not well done..."

Wanyan Xiyin shook her head with a smile, she's not too stupid, so you didn't do well?Even Wanyan Zongbi's crude embryo is better than you, no wonder he failed the imperial examination, his temperament can be seen from his poems, and if he fails the examination, he will go back to hell, then I will not recruit you today, do you want to Bumped to death outside the stockade?

It's just his temper... The corners of Wanyan Xiyin's mouth twitched, this Yuan Yi's temperament is quite suitable for his identity.

"Yuan Yi, let me ask you a question. According to your own statement, you have been studying calligraphy and copying calligraphy from famous masters all these years, so you must be very good at fonts..." Wanyan Xiyin suddenly saw that Zhao Tun had put the calligraphy on the teacup. After chewing and swallowing the tea leaves on it, he couldn't help but pause.

"Hmm..." Zhao Tong raised his head and said, "Da Du Tong is considered a small income, otherwise he wouldn't dare to come to Da Du Tong's village to serve."

Wanyan Xiyin kept his eyes on Zhao Tun, and said slowly: "Then what's your opinion on this word creation?"

Zhao Tang put down the tea bowl when he heard the words, and suddenly saw the three people on the opposite side looking over nervously. The characters are created with reference to Chinese characters, and to put it bluntly, they are all derivatives of Chinese characters.

The characters created by Wanyan Xiyin are called Jurchen characters. In fact, they are made of Khitan characters. It is said that the creation is too reluctant. It can be seen that no new characters can be researched in the end. It can only be done to fool the semi-literate Wanyan Aguda.

Zhao Tong lowered his voice: "Dadu Tong, I have thought about the creation of characters on the way here. Most of the characters in the world today come from the Chinese characters of the Song Dynasty. The Goryeo Kingdom directly borrowed Chinese characters, and the Khitan characters and Xixia characters were imitated from Chinese characters. Dali borrowed Chinese characters and also used Baiwen, and these characters are all descended from the same strain.”

Wanyan Xiyin nodded and said with a smile: "My Dajin also borrowed the Khitan script and used it for many years. If it wasn't for Jianguo, I wouldn't have thought about creating the Jurchen script."

Zhao Tong hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Dadu is outspoken and broad-minded, Yuan Yi admires it."

Wanyan Xiyin said: "Yuan Yi, you don't need to address Da Du Tong any more, just address him as Mister."

Zhao Tun was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "Yes, sir."

Wanyan Xiyin said: "You continue to talk."

Zhao Tun sat down and continued: "These countries either borrow Chinese characters or refer to Chinese characters to create their own writings, but the grassroots people think that in the future, my Dajin will surely step into the Great Liao Dynasty, sweep the world, and create a glorious world, so they cannot refer to Chinese characters or Khitan. Word creation."

"Huh?" Wanyan Xiyin looked at Zhao Tun with interest: "You mean to create an independent character, which has nothing to do with all the current characters?"

Zhao Tong nodded and said, "That's right, sir."

Wanyan Xiyin squinted at him. It's not like he hadn't thought about this kind of thing, even thought about it countless times, but it's not easy, Cangjie created characters, Tianyu millet, ghost cry at night, if he created a brand new character, it would be no longer easy. Yayu Saint is alive.

"Junior, don't boast indiscriminately in front of Mister!" The old man on the opposite side spoke suddenly, his brows drooped and he didn't raise his eyelids, obviously he didn't like to listen to Zhao Tama's words.

"What kind of junior?" Zhao Tuo said displeased: "There is a sequence of hearing the Tao, and those who have mastered it are teachers, how can we judge the size by age, I think that although my dear brother is old, he has never heard of the Tao!"

The old man said angrily: "You!"

The fat man shook his head and looked at Zhao Tun and said, "Yuan Yi, even though you said so, after all, you haven't even passed the imperial examination, and you haven't even had any fame, yet you still boast that you are a teacher if you are a master."

Zhao Tang looked at the fat man and sneered: "Didn't you hear that three people must have my teacher, how can you judge the merits by fame, if this man thinks that fame can govern the country, which is better than anything else, then Liao Kingdom is full of famous people , wouldn’t it bring peace to the country and the people?”

The fat man turned pale, curled the corners of his mouth, and said nothing more.

The black and thin middle-aged man frowned and looked at Zhao Tun: "Brother Yuanxian, although your reasoning is reasonable, creating a new text is not open-minded. You talk about it in general. Do you have a general rule for this? Why don't you tell me, Let me hear it, sir, and let the three of us see it."

As soon as he said this, the other two immediately looked over. Zhao Tang looked at the black and thin middle-aged man and touched his chin, and said, "This... I don't have a clue right now, and I have to think about it for a few more days."

The three of them were so angry when they heard that you looked at me and I looked at you, you kid didn't think of anything, just sitting here bluffing and bragging?Is this what a person with real ability can do?
Wanyan Xiyin frowned and said, "Yuan Yi, how long will it take you to figure out the matter of creating a new character?"

Zhao Tong said: "Sir, Yuan Yi estimates that it will take three to five days at most to establish a constitution for this brand-new text, or even start it."

Wanyan Xiyin's brows gradually relaxed upon hearing this, nodded and said: "Okay, then you might as well give you a few more days, just seven days, after seven days I want to listen to what you have to say, don't let me down."

Zhao Tong immediately stood up and said excitedly: "Sir, don't worry, Yuan Yi will definitely present a charter to Mr. Yuan Yi in seven days... Yuan Yi, Yuan Yi is willing to issue a military order."

Wanyan Xiyin laughed dumbfounded, shook her head, and thought that Yuan Yi's temper seemed a bit reckless.

The other three looked disdainful when they heard this, and the old man even closed his eyes. The fat man thought to himself, let alone three or five days for such a big event, it would be good to have an idea to open up the situation in March and May. This Yuan Yi is not ashamed to say, let's see how he will end up.

The black and thin middle-aged man frowned and shook his head secretly. Yuan Yi's handwriting is really good, but he is still too young. How can he promise a period of three to five days? Knowing that my husband will also have thunderstorms, I feel a little bit at a loss. If I really can't get it out at that time, I know the truth that I can't talk nonsense, and I can't make random wishes.

Wanyan Xiyin said: "Yuan Yi, there is no need to issue a military order. I will give you a position as an editor first, and the whole family will live in the stockade. Besides the three of them, there are two other editors. The six of you can discuss more. .”

Zhao Tong nodded in agreement, Wanyan Xiyin said again: "You are here today, you should settle down well, I ordered you to go down and give you a courtyard to live in, and someone will tell you to take care of other things, do you think so?"

Zhao Tong hurriedly saluted: "Thank you sir, Yuan Yi is very grateful."

Wanyan Xiyin nodded and began to call for arrangements, and said after a while: "Go ahead, if you have anything to do, you can come to see me directly."

Zhao Tong saluted and left, followed a fat soldier out of the main entrance of the lobby, Wanyan Xiyin waved to the other three, and the three also left.

Watching the backs gradually disappear, a figure flashed out from the back door of the lobby, this is a thin man dressed in black, Wanyan Xiyin leaned on the couch, and said lightly: "Jianyin, look How about it?"

The thin man in black had a strange voice, and he couldn't tell the difference between male and female, he said: "Sir, look at it from Jianyin, this Yuan Yi should not have any martial arts."

Wanyan Xiyin nodded and said: "This person has a sloppy temper, let's observe slowly. As for the people he brought, check carefully, especially observe the behavior of their husband and wife, and report immediately if there is anything wrong."

The thin man in black said "yes", and disappeared through the back door in a blink of an eye.
