Dine drinking in the countryside began in the Zhou rituals. Since the Han Dynasty to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, various dynasties have been trying their best to promote this ceremony to achieve the purpose of etiquette and education, and the same is true for the Tang Dynasty. In particular, when Ruizong ascended the throne, in order to highlight his orthodoxy, he ordered the states to perform the rural drinking ceremony every year on the grounds that the country had abandoned the countryside drinking ceremony for a long time, so as to achieve the order of respecting the elderly and advocating morality and promoting education, and clarifying the ranks of the elders and young people. Li Longji, the son of Li Longji, paid more attention to these than his father. At the beginning of the Kaiyuan period, he also issued that volume of rituals, allowing the governors of the state to convene the gentry and elders in the prefecture to celebrate the rural drinking ceremony in the twelfth lunar month every year.

However, what is essential for local officials to attend once a year is to send tribute to the local governments and send scholars to Beijing.

Before Du Shiyi took office, the Daizhou prefecture examination had already selected scholars who were sent to the various subjects this year. Although Hedong has always been a place where many famous scholars emerged and prominent families took root, it is mostly in Taiyuan and south of Taiyuan. Since the states north of Taiyuan were severely affected by the Turks, the style of martial arts was even better than that of Shangwen. When Du Shiyi was the new acting governor and presided over the drinking ceremony in the village on this day, the twenty or thirty scholars in front of him who were about to go to Chang'an to participate in the annual ceremony, everyone wore swords and their spirits were overwhelming. When the music started, facing the rituals and music and many rituals promulgated by the court, most people followed and danced with them step by step, and some even showed disapproval.

Although Du Shiyi himself lacked interest in these rituals and music, as the acting governor, many seniors from this state attended the meeting. According to the rules, there were people who were specializing in the case of impeachment, so he naturally had no intention of getting along with such rules. He even went to inspect the rituals and music team the day before. With his expertise in music, he corrected several mistakes in the musician's music score, which attracted several retired guests to participate. Therefore, as the master, even the old and famous, who were familiar with etiquette, could not find any fault in his words and deeds.

When the long ceremony ended, when Du Shiyi held a banquet in the lobby of the Governor's Office to invite the tributes, the guests who were invited were all quietly whispering.

"I thought Du Jun was young and his words and deeds might be negligent, but today's drinking ceremony in this village is perfect, but we guys are still a little bit less etiquette."

"That's natural. The Du family of Jingzhao, with a surname in Guanzhong, is there no other place that we Yan Daierlang can compare with? Alas, for so many years, let alone the Jinshi, the number of people who can win the Mingjing tributes in Daizhou is rare, and the talents have withered.

"Let us men dance with archers and horses, and dance with swords, that is a first-class skill. We can splash ink, interpret classics and history, and recite poems and essays. This is really hard to compare with other famous scholars."

Most of the relatives of the scholars who were tributed this year were among the guests invited to attend the drinking ceremony in the countryside today, so they naturally heard these comments from the elders. Some were only angry, while others were young and energetic on their faces. Especially the two people who were punished by the officials for their misconduct during the ceremony were even more rigid and dissatisfied with a rigid face. In a moment, a call from the lobby came from the lobby, and many eyes looked towards the entrance of the lobby. However, unlike the robe they imagined, Du Shiyi was not only wearing a narrow-sleeved right-side robe that was extremely popular in Daizhou, but also a long sword was hanging around her waist.

Even though they were shocked, everyone still saluted: "Greetings to the envoy."

Du Shiyi sat down happily and raised his hand to signal the others to sit down. He then said with a smile: "When King Wuling of Zhao was wearing a Hu clothing and a cavalry, he set up various counties in the northern region, and Yanmen was among them. The martial arts style was very strong, until now. I have only been in office for a few days. I saw almost everyone inside and outside the governor's office wearing swords, and they were all good at bows and horses. It can be seen that I was the first to supervise Yunzhou. I know that Taiyuan has often wars, so the people's customs are fierce and generous. This is a heartbreaking style."

Speaking of literature, Du Shiyi passed the third place and was well-known for his literary talent. Although he no longer devoted himself to literary affairs in recent years, he was still together with the officials of Yunzhou, and the "Yunzhou Collection" was published. Therefore, Du Shiyi showed his praise for the martial style of Daizhou. All the elders of Daizhou felt honored, and even the scholars with some frowned were surprised.

"And I was ordered to be the deputy envoy of the Jiedushi to be the governor. When I first arrived in Daizhou, I performed a drinking ceremony in the countryside. It was also a great blessing that the style of martial arts and literary styles were consistent. I read the articles of this provincial examination a few days ago. Due to the subject matter, it is difficult to produce a masterpiece. However, the examination fu is not limited in nature. It is necessary to know that there are many heroes in Yan and Zhao. Instead of imitating others, it is rare to have a spiritual essence. Why not be passionate and show the character of Yan and Zhao? "

Speaking of this, Du Shiyi waved his hand and ordered the wine, and then smiled and pulled the sword to a young woman who appeared silently at some point, saying, "Today, Gongsun, everyone, Yue, came to Daizhou. When I was in front of me, I accidentally got an ancient compilation of the General's Order, so I used this song to invite everyone, Yue to dance a sword, to make the tribute scholars' love.

Yue Wuniang has often been around the world for many years, and often reveals the name of Gongsun’s disciple. In addition, when she went to Yunzhou, she deliberately promoted her appearance. Everyone knows that she is in Yunzhou. At this moment, when everyone heard Du Shiyi’s words, almost everyone looked at the stunning face, and saw her holding the sword and smiling slightly, jumping into the field. Du Shiyi took a pipa from another waiter, and the field was silent. With a sound that seemed like a long sound, she was born in Yanmen and raised in Daizhou. She had seen the military formation training since childhood. It seemed that the Daizhou tributes who had seen the situation of the army gathering.

After the long call, there were big gongs and drums. Although the pipa alone was a little thin, the cold light of the sword was used, and everyone felt the sharp aura coming to their faces. They didn't know which scholar was very confident in the rhythm, and they hit the bowl with chopsticks according to the rhythm, which complemented each other and attracted the surprise of the people sitting next to them.

Compared with the temple music, the pipa is a common music, and the sword dance is not a regular dance among the palace music and dance. However, in Daizhou, where martial arts style is more popular and chivalrous, such a combination is obviously more in line with the habits and appetites of the locals. What's more, Gongsun's reputation in the whole north is extremely high. Since she was summoned to the Pear Garden, the people have never been able to see the beauty's heroic appearance. Now, seeing her direct disciples show their skills again, when the music ends with a heroic grandeur like a vow, and the cold light of the sword dance is also closed for a while, I don't know how many people cheered like thunder after a long period of immersion.

"You all went to Chang'an for the New Year's Eve thousands of miles away, and it was like a vow to go on a war. Today I would like to pay another cup of respect to you, and I hope you will be victorious in a hundred battles."

Faced with such encouragement, almost everyone was so excited. After Du Shiyi drank it all, scholars drank one after another. I don’t know who was angry and smashed the copper wine bowl to the ground. For a moment, there were people who imitated it, and there was a banging sound.

Just when the faces of several steady elders changed slightly and were worried that Du Shiyi would be guilty of their fault for losing their manners, Du Shiyi laughed and said, "In ancient times, when he vowed to go to war, there were often generals and soldiers who used this to express their minds. I didn't expect that today my friend Wang Shaobo, the clerk of the clerk, once wrote a new poem. Qinghai's long clouds were dark in the snowy mountains, and the lonely city looked at Yumen Pass. The yellow sand wore golden armor after hundreds of battles. If Loulan was destroyed, I would never return. I would like to encourage you with this poem."

"Thank you, the envoy"

In the messy sound, Du Shiyi gently slapped his high-high, and the waiter from the bottom delivered various dishes in an orderly manner. However, after this unexpected surprise, even if the dishes were rich and exquisite, most of the people were not interested in it, but there were many people who drank like water. With the help of drunkenness, today's Dabin Wen Zhengyi, who retired as a Simen Doctor, staggered over to toast. At this moment, an official prostitute in the hall offered music, and the sound of the zither was overwhelmed with the words. This also made him open his eyes that were narrowed as if drunken, and reveal a clear look.

"The envoy first arrived in Daizhou and promoted ancient style and praised Wufeng. I want to know that this position is different from the predecessor. How dare you ask the envoy, will the three tigers in Daizhou be the one who is in charge?"

Because the position of acting governor Shi came too quickly and suddenly, Du Shiyi had not had time to make full preparations, but he had just handed over the government affairs of Yunzhou to Wang Han and others, so he hurried to Daizhou to take office. At this moment, since someone came to chat with him, whether it was deliberately saying that half of it was kept in hiding or deliberately induced it, he had no reason to keep people out. At that moment, he smiled and said, "I hope to hear it carefully."

"The envoy had served as the Chengdu Order before, and he should know that there were no aristocratic families in Chengdu." Seeing Du Shiyi nodding, Wen Zhengyi smiled and said, "Daizhou also has no aristocratic families. However, Hedong is not as good as Shu, and there are many aristocratic families in the world, no better than the Wang family in Taiyuan, Hedong, Wenxi Pei family, and Luzhou Shangdang Miao family. In addition to these, there are no less than 10,000 families of all sizes. In Daizhou, each family has branches. Daizhou now has more than 90,000 people, but even when Yuwen Rong was fleeing households, each family still had a fleeing household, with a population of no less than 10,000 or 20,000. Now, more of the people in these aristocratic families are bullying men and women, or engaging in illegal activities, or stole and sell official grain. This is a tiger."

Wen Zhengyi felt a little anxious when he saw Du Shiyi seemingly careless. However, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Second, the military personnel are insufficient. The Daizhou army has a full 4,000 people, but now, including those stationed in the East and West Pass cities, the total is only more than 3,000. Because military merits are not worth much, it is difficult for the officials to serve as officials. Moreover, Daizhou has not had any war for a long time. The commanders treat soldiers like servants, no one is willing to serve as soldiers, and horses are not enough. Whenever the imperial court sends a censor to inspect, they often pull the men and fill in the numbers. These two tigers are."

Speaking of this, he saw Du Shiyi closing his eyes, thinking that Du Shiyi meant being out of sight and not being upset. When he sighed and was about to turn around and leave, a sound suddenly came from his ears.

"Why should Mr. Wen only say half of the words? You said the three tigers in Daizhou, but you haven't said the third tiger yet."
