He Zhizhang looked at Zhang Xu's proud look and was immediately angry.

Pei Min was confused at first, but when he looked at Zhang Xu's complacentness, He Zhizhang's laughter and anger, thinking about them being good at cursive scripts, he guessed the reasons.

As he thought, He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu met each other by drinking more than a month ago, and they were very uncomfortable. After many contacts, they have seen each other have extremely high attainments in calligraphy, especially cursive script. He Zhizhang is good at cursive script, and integrates the brushwork of running and cursive script into official script, but it is not the strict sense of Zhang Cao. Today's cursive script is calligraphy full of Wei and Jin style. Zhang Xu's cursive script is for cursive script, with the connected brushstrokes and round and the shape of characters is wild and changeable.

The two types of cursive script have their own advantages, and He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu are the pinnacle figures in each other's fields. Just like the literary and martial arts, the same excellent calligraphy is really hard to distinguish. They all feel that their calligraphy is better than each other's. For this reason, when the wine is sweet and the ears are hot, the debate is red and the ears are even parting in disagreement, and no one is convinced.

With the help of Pei Min, Zhang Xu created a masterpiece of life. The King of Qin praised the heroic spirit of the mountains and rivers. He had long thought of giving the King of Qin to Pei Min, but he was very concerned about the arguments with He Zhizhang on calligraphy and used them to show off his whiteness and make He Zhizhang convinced him.

He Zhizhang looked at King Zizan and sighed: "This book has a sharp spirit that swallows mountains and rivers, probably because of Brother Pei. Zhang Xiandi's pen is unrestrained and generous, but the pen tip is softer than the mountains and rivers. If there is no opportunity, I am afraid there will be no such change."

Zhang Xu smiled and said, "I let Brother He tell you that Brother Pei's sword technique is like a god. Although I don't understand sword, I can also see that his sword style is like a god's help. From his sword technique, I have gained the god of cursive script, and my calligraphy is greatly improved."

It was the first time that Pei Min heard Zhang Xu say this, and he couldn't help but be stunned. In his memory, Zhang Xu seemed to have felt the god of cursive script because he saw Gongsun's Xihe sword weapon. He became the master of cursive script to carry forward the past. How come he has become the god of cursive script from his sword technique now? There are unexpected surprises.

Suddenly, He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu shook his nose at the same time, and the two walked into the hall at the same time.

Seeing that Pei Min had not moved, He Zhizhang pulled him and said, "Let's go in and drink. Brother Pei remembered that I, He Zhizhang, make friends. Regardless of my identity, knowledge and talent, I cannot know how to drink. If you don't drink, He will immediately issue an order to expel guests."

Pei Min smiled and said, "I'm afraid I won't drink enough!" He is not good at drinking, but he is born with alcohol. I still remember that when he drinks white wine for the first time in later generations, he drank more than 10 pounds of 4 digits at more than 50 degrees. His face was not red and his heart was not beating, as if nothing happened. The Tang Dynasty's wine reached only more than 20 degrees. If you really want to drink it, there is no problem with six or seven pounds.

He Zhizhang narrowed his eyes and said, "This is a great thing." He said, and invited him to enter the hall to drink with him.

The two calligraphy masters discussed the calligraphy.

He Zhizhang is in his early fifties and Zhang Xu is nearly forty years old. They each invaded calligraphy for decades. In terms of calligraphy experience, it is far from what Pei Min can compare with. Especially in cursive script, he has little contact with him and can hardly interfere with words. However, when he only listens to their discussion, Pei Min has a great feeling of benefiting. Therefore, he is not bored at all, but listens with relish and is extremely fascinating. Occasionally, he has some insights, and can even make two people treat each other differently.

The wine is sweet and the ears are hot, Zhang Xu smiled and said, "Brother He is promoted? Today, I don't dare to come to pay my respects to you, so as not to say that I am so proud of you."

He Zhizhang said angrily: "Your brother is such a bad word. How can you have a noble and humble status at the table? You and I make friends with you and I, who dares to say more? Besides, you are talented and knowledgeable. Your Majesty is thirsty for talent. If I hadn't been humble in my official position, how could I not recommend your Majesty to you?"

Zhang Xu shook his head and said, "Being an official is too restricted, it's not my wish, so I'll be spared. If you really have the chance, you can recommend Brother Pei. Brother Pei, don't look at Brother Pei, these days, I have been with him day and night, talking about the past and present. In terms of calligraphy, he is much inferior to me, but he is more knowledgeable than me and has a strategy for governing the world. His strengths are his strengths. Compared with our niche talents, he is truly great."

He Zhizhang looked at Pei Min unexpectedly.

Pei Min didn't expect that Zhang Xu's evaluation of him was so high, so he hurriedly said, "Brother Zhang Miao Zan."

He Zhizhang pondered for a moment and said, "If you don't praise me, you will know. Your Majesty is proud of his talents and ambitions, and is not inferior to Emperor Taizong of our dynasty. He first ascended the great treasure and had the intention to reform the brilliance of the previous dynasty, and was determined to revive the power of our Tang Dynasty, and reappear the great cause of Emperor Gaozong from all over the world. Little brother, if you follow your opinion, where should you start?"

"Military governance!" Pei Min said these two words without thinking.

He Zhizhang frowned and puzzled.

Pei Min said: "I went south, traveling thousands of miles, passing through hundreds of villages and counties. What I saw on the road was that although the people were not rich, they could live and work in peace. It can be seen that the Wei Wu Rebellion in the court disrupted the court's principles and caused great harm, but it did not really affect the people in the world. The people were the most simple, but they thought and wanted nothing more than food and clothing. As long as they did not starve to death or freeze to death, even if they were a little hard or tired, they would not complain. It shows that our dynasty's current governance of the people in the world is in place. Making the people live a better life is indeed something that the court should plan, but not the priority."

He Zhizhang nodded, and Zhang Xu also agreed very much.

At present, the Tang Dynasty still uses the policies left by Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian is good at power and politics. Although the military is terrible, she appointed Di Renjie as the prime minister, which has indeed improved people's livelihood and stabilized people's hearts. This is an indisputable fact.

Pei Min continued: "However, the government soldiers are different. The corruption of the government soldiers has become a problem for the armpits. At present, the number of government soldiers fled is increasing. The destruction of the equal-field system has made the people unwilling to apply for recruitment and lack effective sources of troops, which has led to extremely low quality of government soldiers in various places. When they go to the battlefield, they are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered and have no power to resist. The reason why my Tang Dynasty was able to be arrogant in the world in the past was that in addition to the emergence of famous generals, there were also brave soldiers who thought they would succeed. Think about the Taizong period: In the Battle of the Turkic Republic, our Tang Dynasty had 100,000 soldiers who dared to go deep into the grassland and compete with more than 200,000 troops in Jie Li.
