Ripple bursts.
Kong Zhenrong remembered something, and said slowly: "I heard that the humble scholar from Yanzhi County, Youzhou, who was supposed to win the first prize in Chunwei, was deliberately targeted by a certain big shot, and he found an unscrupulous reason to suppress him, don't say Huiyuan almost lost his eligibility for the imperial examination. Especially in this imperial examination, after he was handpicked by His Majesty the emperor as Tanhualang, his old account was revealed, and there was an uproar in the capital. Some people say that Jin Lanting, the right servant of Jinshi, was obstructed by his teacher Sima Puhua. He intended to promote Qin Guanhai, who later won the title of Huiyuan, but in the palace examination, he was the last one with a Jinshi background. Now even my father is fighting against him, It is said that if Tanhua Liu Huai hadn't worn small shoes for others in Chunwei, he might have won the first place this time, and Liu Huaiben was the first name Jieyuan in the Beiliang Daoxiang Examination. Yes! As for my father's good temper, which can't beat a fart with a few sticks, he has talked about it countless times these days, and there is almost not enough wine in the house."
Liyang Imperial Examination, Qiuwei is the local provincial examination, and Chunwei is the capital examination, so there is a saying in official circles that "the carp jumps over the dragon's gate after a small autumn and a big spring". In fact, Liu Huai, a cold scholar in Beiliang, became famous before Chunwei. At that time, he was copying the inscriptions outside the gate of the Guozijian. In the end, Liu Huai was the last one to know the extremely noble status of the middle-aged Confucian scholar. This incident caused a sensation in the capital! It's just that Liu Huai, who was so shy at the time that he borrowed a small Taoist temple, rejected countless dignitaries' daughters to buy scriptures, and also rejected some people's invitations to change their addresses. I heard that several aristocratic families in the capital wanted to recruit him His son-in-law was also rejected by Liu Huai. At that time, there were quite a few voices in the capital who said that this person was nothing more than trying to gain fame and reputation, and he was waiting for a price. As Liu Huai won the Tanhua in one fell swoop, articles about being able to take the imperial examination gradually spread to the court and the public, and these yin and yang words quietly disappeared.
As Liu Huai jumped into the court's field of vision, the troublemakers in Tai'an City knew some inside stories. There were actually five Beiliang scholars who participated in the Qiuwei Examination, but the other four gave up their qualifications and returned to their hometown together. All the money was given to Liu Huai who stayed in Beijing alone.
As for Kong Zhenrong's father, Kong Dashan, who was "recruited" by the Liyang court, he chose to leave Beiliangdao, mainly because his elder brother and two daughters who had been in business for many years married into Jiangnan Daoist dynasties by accident. Most of the men of the Kong family are rough-looking, but all the women are as beautiful as flowers and jade. And those two Jiangnan aristocratic families were quite popular in the official circles of Tai'an City. In addition, he himself had a disagreement with the then cavalry commander, Huaihua General Zhong Hongwu, so he came to Tai'an City and only earned a modest official title in the Ministry of War. , is only the fourth rank, and was just promoted at the end of last year, and it is estimated that he will be caught up by his son in a few years. After Kong Dashan and his family came to Beijing, they were often dismissed with supercilious glances. However, although Kong Dashan was born as an out-and-out Northern Liang general, his personality was quite open-minded. Reduced to the point of leaving Beiliang. Moreover, Kong Dashan himself is a big boss, but he is one of the few generals in Beiliang who openly admires scholars. Not to mention his contempt for Li Hanlin in his early years, even his cynical His Royal Highness Xu Fengnian was lukewarm. Only when Kong Dashan, who is Yan Chiji, the seed of reading, and unsmiling, sees him at home, will he warm up rarely.
So how could Kong Dashan not be filled with resentment about Liu Huai's situation in Tai'an City, a scholar from Beiliang.
Yan Chiji, who was lazily lying on the fence, stood up and said in a deep voice: "Chunwei does have some insider information, but it is true that Sima Puhua, as the teacher, intends to support Qin Guanhai, a junior from his hometown, but he did not suppress Liu Huai. As Liu Huaifang's master, Jin Lanting, the left servant of the Ministry of Rites, not only did not belittle Liu Huai's articles when he reviewed the papers, but he greatly praised them. The papers are full of beauty."
Kong Zhenrong couldn't get around, he was at a loss, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, the Minister of Rites, and the two served as the chief and vice presidents respectively, could anyone fight against him
Kong Zhenrong suddenly came to his senses, his face filled with disbelief.
Yan Chiji nodded, "It was Chen Shaobao who refused to be the teacher before, who shook his head at Liu Huai's article, and made a few comments about praise rather than criticism."
Kong Zhenrong shook his head vigorously and said: "I don't believe it! Although I haven't really come into contact with Chen Shaobao, I can definitely trust him! Chen Shaobao is definitely not such a character, and he even disdains to act like a villain! There is no need!"
That Chen Shaobao's prestige in the imperial court can only be known from Kong Zhenrong's words, how unsurpassed it is in the capital.
Yan Chiji smiled wryly and said, "I didn't believe it at first, but His Majesty said it himself, and Chen Shaobao was there at the time."
Kong Zhenrong was stunned, and stretched out his hand to pat his forehead, "No wonder Brother Nian was talking about scholars back then, so he couldn't figure it out!"
Yan Chiji's eyes were deep, and he said softly: "In short, His Majesty appointed Liu Huai as the candidate, and did not give him the number one spot. It might be a kind of 'best of both worlds'."
Kong Zhenrong sighed, "Don't think too much about things you can't figure out, and bypass the roads that don't work. Brother Nian taught me this, and I think it makes sense."
Yan Chiji smiled and said: "Brother Nian also said that if we meet a grandfather who can't beat him, we will be grandchildren first, and there will always be a day when grandfather teaches grandson."
Kong Zhenrong grinned and couldn't close his mouth for a long time.
Yan Chiji was silent for a long time, and when Kong Zhenrong finally stopped laughing, he leaned on the railing again and said softly: "You and Li Hanlin both think that I read the most books, but Brother Nian is born smarter, so he is more reasonable than me, which is actually wrong. I didn't realize it until later. In fact, our family left Beiliang secretly at that time. In fact, Brother Nian knew about it a long time ago. That's why he told me those drunken words alone when we got together for the last time. He said that in the book Said, there is always a banquet in the world. Don't be afraid, the book also said that wherever in life you don't meet, when one table is removed, there is always a chance to set another table."
Kong Zhenrong was speechless.
I want to say something, but I can't say it.
Want to drink, but there is no alcohol to drink.
Yan Chiji turned his head, with tears all over his face, and looked at Kong Wuchi, "I know, the four of us, plus my sister and Li Chengzhen, the six of us will never have the chance to get together again in this life gone."
Kong Zhenrong nodded.
Yan Chiji sobbed like a child who made a mistake, "Brother Nian, he lied to me!"
Kong Zhenrong still didn't speak, but slowly raised his arm, pressed it on the young man's head, and rubbed it gently.
Just like how Xu Fengnian treated Yan Chiji back then.
…
Many, many years later, not only did the auspicious symbol year name become a thing of the past, but even the new year name was changed twice.
The new emperor Liyang had just ascended the throne.
It is still in this small pavilion near the water, and it is still the evening light rain in spring.
The late old man who just declined the new king's retention and stepped down as a servant of Zuo Servant, came here alone after being spoiled by his grandchildren. He was an old scholar who was a powerful minister in his career in officialdom, and will be a famous minister in the future. For some reason, Weeping silently, the white-haired old man's expression was not very sad, but he just couldn't stop his tears.
The old man, who was hailed as the second Tan Tan Weng by the ruling and opposition parties, did not wipe it.
It's like a child who accidentally lost a cute object, first crying, and after a few days, the sadness is not so serious, but when remembering, he still snuffs his nose.
Three bowls of dry intestines are poured, and the breeze produces two armpits.
The spring breeze blows frost on the temples, and the old man recalls his youth.
Many, many years ago, in Lingzhou in the south of the Great Wall, the last king of Beiliang that no one had mentioned was the absurd and carefree His Royal Highness. In those years, it was often seen that four young men walked out of the brothel together in the middle of the night drunk, covered in powder and powder, Li Hanlin who had not joined the army to kill the enemy outside the pass, let alone Li Hanlin who had not become the captain of the white horse, that is, he had not become Li Hanlin, who went to conquer the General of the West, must have had rouge and lip marks all over his face at that time. It's just that this guy is the most cunning, he doesn't hold a lot of alcohol, let alone the quality of the wine, every time he secretly asks the oiran to help him mix the water, not to mention, while drinking like a hero, he sneaks out of the glass and hides it perfectly. Every time I go back home, I can still laugh and laugh with the oiran bustards, and I won't delay to take advantage of it later, and I have the right to charge some interest. Besides, Kong Wuchi, who is a good man, has a good capacity for alcohol and can't handle the quality of wine, not to mention those two or three girls who are very grateful after a long time since they opened their business, how could they agree to this burly and kind young man not to drink? ? So he is far less sober than the bastard surnamed Li every time. However, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil. Kong Wu is drunk and Li Hanlin is awake, so of course the latter must carry it. In the words of His Royal Highness, is it Kong Wuchi who weighs two hundred catties less than me? Are you, Li Hanlin, His Royal Highness, or am I? And the young scholar who was still nicknamed Yan Chiji back then was no longer afraid of being scolded by his father after returning home. He often secretly cheered himself up every time he went into the brothel, and this time he must touch it tonight. The breasts of a certain lady, or how about a kiss on the mouth if you have the courage? In short, I can't let the three brothers laugh at me for being ungrateful or courageous! It's just that every time they leave the gentle hometown of Yingge and Yanyu, young scholars will get drunk and pass out, telling themselves, it's okay, try again next time, a real man!
Li Hanlin, a slender young man, staggers along with Kong Wuchi, a strong young man on his back.
As for His Royal Highness, the Young Prince, carrying the light young Yan Chiji on his back, of course it was easier.
At first, Li Hanlin was not without doubts, why didn't he just let his subordinates carry Kong Wu Chi Yan back to the carriage
His Royal Highness said that we are brothers.
The four young men felt that there was nothing more reasonable than this.
At that moment, the old man choked up and said, "Brother Nian, you are lying."
That person, who promised the Liyang Dynasty, or the people of the world, will never enter Tai'an City again in this life.
But at this moment, a warm palm was gently placed on the old man's head.
No matter how many years have passed, there is still that familiar ridicule and laughter, "Yo, Yan Chiji, you are crying! Is it because your father forbids you to play with me, or is your sister talking bad about me again? What a big deal , Brother Nian, I will take you to drink flower wine! The old rules, Li Hanlin pays, Kong Wuchi leads the horse! Let's go!"
The old man didn't look up, fearing it was a dream.
The palm that held Yan Chiji's head, lifted it up slightly, and then patted it down lightly.
That person smiled and said: "Strictly eat chicken, are you stupid in reading?! My brothers, we are all waiting for you!"
Yan Chiji turned around slowly, tried his best to widen his eyes, and his lips trembled.
This very old man, the University of Martial Yingdian, who ranks first among the Twelve Palaces of the Liyang New Dynasty, is known as "every major event, the strictest scholar is the one who calms down the most", tears flowed down his thin cheeks and criss-crossed He wiped his face indiscriminately, cried and laughed, and said softly: "Brother Nian, I miss you very much."
The guy opposite him, whose temples were only slightly frosted white, showed a bright smiling face like a boy in those days, raised his sleeves, and helped Yan Chiji wipe away his tears, saying: "I know, I know."
Not far away, two people seemed to be whispering, but their voices were not low.
"Look, Kong Wuchi, I have already said that Yan Chiji likes our brother Nian, but he just couldn't make that step back then."
"Huh? It's really true when you look at it. I didn't realize it before, but this time I believe it!"
"Kong Wuchi, you said that Yan Chiji is already old, isn't it a bit late?"
"Hey, there is nothing wrong with Yan Chiji, except that he is thin-skinned. If it were me, I would have told Brother Nian 60 or 70 years earlier."
"Get out! At that time, your surname Kong has already crawled out of your mother's womb?"
Now Yan Chiji, who is a little deaf but definitely not deaf, suddenly became furious, without the slightest demeanor of a scholar, "Li Hanlin, Kong Zhenrong! Go away and cool off!"
Li Hanlin looked up at the moon, and Kong Zhenrong looked around. They were extremely skilled and proficient.
No matter what, Yan Chiji always held the hand of the person in front of him tightly, unwilling to let go.
Xu Fengnian looked at Yan Chiji, then turned his head to look at the grinning Li Hanlin and Kong Zhenrong, and said softly: "They are still there, they haven't changed. That's great."
In the final chapter of the second chapter, in the rivers and lakes in the snow, some people have a beginning and an end
[A part of the content is the previous chapter of "The Bead Curtain" - I found you, Little Sweet Potato.]
Xiangfu four years.
Youzhou Yanzhi County is very famous, its reputation is so great that even the whole Central Plains has heard of it, especially in the early years in the Jiangnan Road where the scholars were romantic and the Guangling Road where the world was rich. interest.
Because the aunts and aunts in Yanzhi County are especially watery, and they responded to the saying that women are really made of water, beautiful and not vulgar, naturally charming and affectionate, even the women in Yanzhi County who grew up in the remote villages still have a unique charm.
It's just that there are many unknown small towns in Rouge County, and in one of them, there is a beautiful woman who was once listed in the Rouge Review.
Pei Nanwei, the old Princess Jing'an who should have died in love.
Now she is guarding the small but clean little house. She seldom goes out and raises a cage of chickens. She often sits under the eaves and looks at the old hen who is proud of her toes. With exquisite and cute chicks, wandering around the yard, pecking here and there, over time, although she became a little boring, but she felt that such a boring life was the real life.
A well-known unremarkable young woman and an old woman who will fall when the wind blows, live far and near, the former will occasionally help pour water into the water tank, or send some small items that are destined to be impossible to buy in a small town, Rouge, gouache, hairpins, bits and pieces, all kinds of things, Pei Nanwei also accepts them one by one. There is no woman in the world, no matter rich or poor, high or low, who doesn't want to be more beautiful. The old woman with a vicissitudes of life didn't give anything away, she just came to visit the house every now and then, and chatted about trivial matters, saying which silk shop in the town sold Shu satin, but the old woman was very quick. Let's just say that 80% of them are deceitful, cheating those silly girls' private money. It is said that the ugly wife of Liu Yaoer, a blacksmith shop in the southernmost part of the town, hooked up with a certain young man surnamed Zhang in Poluo Lane. It's really hard to say who took advantage. The old woman also said that a kite fell on the roof of her house, those children are really naughty
It's fine to go to the house to get a kite. There was also a little brat standing on the roof and urinating in the yard, so she went to the door of the child's house and scolded her.
Pei Nanwei listened patiently every time, but she couldn't remember most of them, and she forgot after hearing it.
Finally, one day, someone broke the peace and tranquility. It was the child named Yu Dilong. He arrived on a horse alone, with a saber on his waist, and his posture of dismounting from the mountain was neat and tidy. Looking at it with a smile at the door, I thought it was a little funny.
When Yu Dilong called out the title of mistress, Pei Nanwei smiled even more happily, and led the child across the threshold of the small courtyard in no hurry, and asked, "Little insect, how many people have you called mistress?"
In fact, this child used to be called Aunt Pei a few times before, but now she has a new name, but it doesn't make her feel disgusted.
Ever since the allusion of walking against the wall seemed to spread throughout Qingliang Mountain overnight, Yu Dilong said this to the troublemaker, and it couldn't be more profound.
But facing Pei Nanwei, the child really couldn't remember much. He stretched out three fingers and said with a grin: "Just three! But you are the master's wife!"
Pei Nanwei glared, feigned anger and said, "Won't you just say half a sentence?"
Yu Dilong looked surprised, "Huh? Only three?!"
Pei Nanwei slammed the head of this tall but not thoughtful child, and said with an angry smile, "I learned it all from your master!"
Yu Dilong, whose face was as dark as charcoal, giggled, and walked happily into the yard with his mistress.
Yu Dilong likes to treat this place as his own home, that's why he discussed it with his wife last time, and when he saves enough money, he must build another house.
There were two small benches placed under the eaves. She had thought of buying a small bamboo chair, but after thinking about it, she decided to give up. She had other plans.
After the two sat down, Pei Nanwei joked: "Little Chongzi, what is the name of your master's big apprentice? Mistress forgot."
The originally lazy Yu Dilong immediately straightened his back, a little guilty, and said in a low voice: "Her name is Wang Sheng, and Lu Yunchang said that it's a silly name. But I think it's actually not bad."
Pei Nanwei hurriedly asked: "Then if Wang Sheng likes your master, but he doesn't like you, what should we do?"
Yu Dilong opened his mouth wide with a dazed expression on his face.
She got to the bottom of it, "Huh?"
Yu Dilong scratched his head, looked down at the toe of his shoe, and said softly, "I can't beat Master either."
Pei Nanwei laughed out loud.
Yu Dilong quickly raised his head, and said solemnly: "Master, if Wang Sheng really likes Master, I will fight with Master, but I am not trying to win Wang Sheng over!"
Now Pei Nanwei was really puzzled, "What do you say?"
With a serious expression on his face, the child stretched out a fist, "I just want to let Wang Sheng know that you can like our master, but the little bug might beat him too."
Pei Nanwei was noncommittal, looked up at the gate of the courtyard, and said softly: "Little bug, it's okay to say you're stupid, but it's okay to say you're smart."
The child seemed a little depressed, with his chin in his hands, dazed in a daze.
Pei Nanwei rubbed his head and comforted him: "It may be soon, but it may be a long time later, and you will understand one day that when you like someone, it's just that the person doesn't like you, although it's not as good as the two. Personally like each other, but it's a lot luckier than if you don't even like anyone."
Yu Dilong frowned, and said pitifully, "Master, why does it sound so miserable."
Pei Nanwei asked with a smile: "Do you think Master's wife is happy or sad?"
She added, "If the answer is correct, my wife will teach you how to court Wang Sheng."
Yu Dilong said cautiously: "Silly happy?"
The corner of Pei Nanwei's mouth twitched.
Yu Dilong hugged his head in a thunderous manner, "Master, Master! This is what Master accidentally said!"
Pei Nanwei said kindly, "You got the answer right."
Yu Dilong was full of surprise.
Pei Nanwei chuckled, "But little bug, you'd better be a bachelor for the rest of your life."
Yu Dilong wasn't sad, he just tilted his head and pinched his chin with two fingers, as if he was thinking very hard.
The child sat up straight suddenly, and then slapped his thigh, "Forget it, let's wait until I come back from the gourd's mouth alive!"
Pei Nanwei was taken aback, "What's going on?"
Yu Dilong took out a money bag and solemnly handed it to Pei Nanwei, "Master, this is my salary after serving as the captain of the Youzhou Cavalry Army. You should continue to save it for me. Mistress! If one day you hear Said that I died outside the pass, remember not to be sad for the little bug."
Pei Nanwei frowned and said, "Are you going to fight outside the pass?"
Yu Dilong looked around, and said in a low voice, "Master! You can't say this. According to the law of Beiliang, you will be caught if you leak military plans! I'm the scout corps leader, so I have to lead by example!"
By the way, the child wiped his neck and rolled his eyes.
Pei Nanwei put away the money bag, "Okay, keep it for you."
Yu Dilong stood up, "Master, if I die, don't tell Wang Sheng that I like her."
Pei Nanwei asked with a smile: "Then when you come back alive, will Master tell her?"
Yu Dilong quickly waved his hands and said, "Don't, don't, don't say anything!"
Pei Nanwei asked: "Anyway, I want my wife not to talk about it, so why are you bringing this up?"
Yu Dilong was suddenly stunned, and the more he thought about it, the more confused he became.
After Pei Nanwei got up, he poked the child's head hard with his fingers, "Little bug, with your mushy head, what kind of land dragon will you be in the future?!"
Resentful, Yu Dilong strode down the steps, turned his head and waved his hands and said, "Master, don't give it away!"
Pei Nanwei said angrily: "Go, go, hurry up."
After Yu Dilong walked out of the gate, Pei Nanwei suddenly heard the child's surprise voice, "Master?! Why are you here? The battle is over?!"
Pei Nanwei subconsciously walked down the steps quickly. Just as she was about to reach the gate of the courtyard, she suddenly came to her senses and stopped. She laughed loudly and cursed: "Little bastard!"
The children outside the house laughed and rode away, yelling, "Let's go! Mistress misses Master!"
Now it is the turn of spring and summer, a woman from the Pei family in the spring and autumn suddenly remembered a small poem, the content was word for word, but she forgot the name of the poem and the name of the author.
Quietly looking at the green wall, leisurely looking at the green forest. There is nothing wrong with Liuying, and the sound is far away from Xue Luoyin.
Qingbi, Green Forest, Flowing Warbler, Xueluo.
Presumably, the reason why she has such a deep memory is that these lovely scenery in the south of the Yangtze River were all when she was a girl, and she was so close at hand, the more readily available, the less she didn't know how to cherish it.
After becoming the princess of Liyang, she was imprisoned within the high wall and got tired of reading graceful poems, so she gradually came into contact with some frontier poems that she didn't like before. Tube, swan goose.
At this time, Pei Nanwei looked around, the yellow mud courtyard wall was sparsely green, there was no bird singing, and it was already scorching heat.
A high-rise boudoir with a grudge
Then there must be tall buildings to live in.
When Pei Nanwei thought of this, she was really angry. Of course, she was living alone in this small county town with money.
Since the last time I went to the Bishan county government office with the guy who was supposed to be the head of the county, and succeeded in asking for the twenty taels of silver salary that I owed for a long time, the county magistrate Feng Guan was quickly transferred away for some reason, and replaced the original owner. Yang Gongshou, who was in the position of "Xu Qi", took advantage of the situation to succeed the county magistrate, and the county magistrate was still Zhu Ying, who also came from Qingludong Academy like the new county magistrate, and both of them were scholars who went to Liang. When she and he went to the county government, they met two scholars. Yang Gongshou also hired someone to perform a clumsy play of a hero saving the beauty. Unfortunately, the surname Xu at the time saw through it at a glance. In his words, it was me. The originator of the dandyism industry, I don’t know how many Gaoliang children in Beiliang back then were eating ashes behind my buttocks, imitating my example, painting tiger dogs.
What made Pei Nanwei angry was that after Yang Gongshou became the county magistrate, Bishan County's head office did not continue to fill the vacancy as usual, but Xu Qi's name was re-hanged, but the Bishan county government gave a "Xu Qi" Odd" Since you don't go to Dianmao to be on duty, then the salary will be halved. It is said that this is the result of the county magistrate Zhu Ying's willingness to argue with the new county lord, otherwise, according to the magistrate Yang, the master Bo Xuqi would not even be able to get a copper coin. Probably the subordinates of the yamen have figured out what the county magistrate is thinking, especially those women whose men work in the yamen, they treat her as a hostess, Mrs. Bo, as an enemy. Always more expensive. The young woman of unknown origin originally wanted to buy it for her, but was rejected by Pei Nanwei. Pei Nanwei wanted to buy it by herself, and deliberately brought a few heavy silver ingots. Of course, the silver is not needed. I can't find it either, but when that
When those women looked at those silver ingots eagerly, Pei Nanwei felt at ease.
That kind of feeling is like saying, the man who bullied me is not here, but he can rest assured that my man can leave so much money to his woman, but you men with long mouths, do you have this ability
Pei Nanwei's anger lies in the fact that your apprentice Yu Dilong can earn so much money, and you, as a master, don't know how to send a little bit home
As long as she thought of using a certain silver ingot to exchange for copper coins, her heart ached terribly.
Out of the corner of Pei Nanwei's eyes, she caught a glimpse of the old hen in the yard, like a general leading tens of thousands of elite soldiers to patrol the territory. She immediately became angry and walked towards them, stepping hard on the ground, The hen and chicks ran away in fright.
Pei Nanwei snorted coldly, with his hands on his hips, a little proud.
A young man who happened to be standing at the gate of the courtyard happened to see this scene with dull eyes and a dazed expression.
He looked at the graceful figure with his back to him, and he was holding a hand with a cloth bag, the palm of which was covered with sweat.
His current name is Zhu Ying, and he was one of the thousands of scholars who went to Beiliang with the king of Shangyin School to offer wine. His real name is by no means inferior to Yu Luan's sword.
Confucianism in the world, South Zhu Bei Yao!
Yao Baifeng, the master of Neo-Confucianism, has resigned from the Imperial College Zuo Jijiu and returned to his hometown to continue giving lectures.
The children of the Zhu family in Jing'an Dao have always been reluctant to become officials. The grandfather of "Zhu Ying" was known as the "God King" in the Spring and Autumn Period. The famous Shilin, known as the Seven Dragons of the Zhu Clan, is even more juxtaposed with the "Lu Clan in the South of the Yangtze River, a dazzling array of things" back then.
Zhu Ying's real name is Zhu Ying, and she is the eldest grandson of the Zhu family!
Even though she was hiding her name and changing her name to Zhu Ying, she pretended to be a concubine from a side branch of the Zhu family. With her outstanding knowledge and foresight, Zhu Ying still stood out from the crowd in Qingludong Academy. Zhu Ying was forced not to come down to the stage, and was in such a state of embarrassment that even some elderly scholars wanted to ask Zhu Ying to explain their doubts. It's just that Zhu Ying's reputation among the scholars who went to Liang is not well-known, at most he has a reputation of being arrogant and noble, but his unpublished articles, as the young vassal king told Pei Nanwei at the time, have long been placed on the desk in Fushuifang , even Xu Weixiong was alarmed, and regarded him as a young handsome man who was not familiar with Xu Beizhi and Chen Xiliang too much. !
Zhu Ying, or Zhu Ying found that her lips were dry, and she didn't know how to speak.
Unlike Yang Gongshou, who was shocked when he saw her for the first time, Zhu Ying only felt that she was pretty when she saw her for the first time, but she didn't have any thoughts of beauty. It was just that once on the road after the rain, she accidentally fell in love with her. I saw her squatting by the street, breaking a piece of dry biscuit in her hand, and gently feeding it to a muddy yellow-brown kitten.
He couldn't let go.
He knew that even if he wasn't the eldest grandson of the Zhu family, he could miss a lonely woman living alone, which was inconsistent with reason and etiquette.
But he couldn't help it.
Just when he was about to speak, the woman turned around, looked at him with a frown, and asked, "Who are you?"
Zhu Ying's heart was instantly ashamed.
In the past year, although I have never spoken to each other, how many times have we met near or far, fifteen or sixteen times
Zhu Ying's face was pale, her lips trembled, and she couldn't speak a word.
He wanted to hold up the money bag in his hand, wanting to say that this was the salary of Mr. Xu Bo last month, and I, Zhu Ying, as a colleague of the Bishan county government, just came here to bring money for my wife.
Pei Nanwei, who was confused, pointed at the dumbass bluntly, "What's wrong? Get out!"
She ran to the corner to pick up a broom, glaring at each other, menacing.
The young scholar turned around sadly.
Naturally, Pei Nanwei didn't know the journey of this young man's mind, and he would fall in love just because of her behavior on the street.
However, with Pei Nanwei's temperament, even if she knew about it, she wouldn't care. I'm afraid she would repeat her previous unintentional words: something is wrong.
As for Zhu Ying, who clearly rose in the official circles of Beiliang many years later, why did she resolutely rebel against the Liang Party when the Liang Party was in full swing, and was praised by the government and the public as "hard-core" as the servant of the Ministry of Officials? No one knows why Zhu Ying, the "iron servant" Zhu Ying, acts like this, and why he knows that he will stop at the position of servant if he is so rebellious against the general trend. In the end, Zhu Ying, who soon became an official minister, gave up the opportunity that the family united several parties in exchange for, and gave up the transfer to the Ministry of Rites as Shangshu. She resigned but did not return to her hometown. Liang Dao established a sect in Youzhou and became a master of learning, whose prestige was not inferior to that of Yao Baifeng in the previous dynasty. In Zhu Ying's life, apart from marrying a wife through family marriage, she only took one concubine in Yanzhi County, Youzhou in her later years.
She was already gray-haired, and Zhu Ying was criticized by the Central Plains for this move. Someone wrote a poem "a branch of pear blossom presses a begonia" and ridiculed it. Zhu Ying didn't take it seriously, and died of old age in Beiliangdao.
After Zhu Ying resigned from office and died of illness in Beiliang, the situation of all parties in the court fighting against the Liang party still did not change.
Yang Gongshou, the county magistrate who once overwhelmed Zhu's family in Bishan County, used his status as a Liangdang official to prosper, and finally became the economic envoy of Lianghuai Road, and his relationship with Zhu Ying has always been good.
When he was rushing to Youzhou, Beiliang, to pay homage to his friend, Yang Gongshou suddenly saw that young woman in filial piety, who seemed to have similar features and eyes with the woman the two of them had met in Bishan County in the early years. five points.
At the friend's mourning hall, Mr. Jing Lue Envoy, who was only showing a little sadness, suddenly felt sad, and his face was full of tears.
At this moment, the woman who chased away the unknown "Dengtuzi" with a broom sat under the eaves, and the old woman soon came to visit and began to chatter again, but compared to the previous parents, the old woman was short and trivial. I talked a little more about the war outside the pass from hearsay, saying that the barbarians in the North Mang could hardly survive. Liangzhou rejected the North City side. From last autumn to this summer, tens of thousands of barbarians died. In the siege, it is difficult to deal with the piles of corpses, and it is even more difficult. Pei Nanwei was absent-minded, a little sleepy, and yawned, and suddenly saw the younger woman walking into the yard and sitting on the dirt steps at their feet, the old woman's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the young woman lowered her head guiltily .
Pei Nanwei has always been called an idiot by someone, but a wealthy woman who can become a prince and concubine is certainly not really stupid, but there are too many things to care about.
Probably because it was too boring, Pei Nanwei poked the delicate woman's back with her finger, and asked with a smile: "What's on your mind? Tell me, maybe I can help you."
The delicate woman lowered her head even lower.
The old woman hurriedly stopped her and said, "Miss Pei, how could Xiao Yang have anything to worry about, she is the daughter of a small family..."
Pei Nanwei smiled and said: "Okay, she is still a small family, and her roots belong to that Qingliang Mountain woman, maybe she has even heard of that guy's name, otherwise there is no way to sit here with you, mother-in-law." .Today we are just ordinary neighbors. There is no Fushui House or Eagle Raising House, and there is no feudal lord Qingliang Mountain. No one knows about it. Xiao Yang... I'll just pretend that your surname is Yang, let's talk, I like it, sister Pei and Granny Zhao will plan for you together."
The young dead woman raised her head and looked at the old woman anxiously. The latter sighed, nodded and said, "It's just this time, there won't be a next time!"
The former timidly said: "Sister Pei, I like..."
At this point she couldn't go on.
The old woman snorted coldly with a straight face: "Master Yang Gongshou, the county magistrate, has an embroidered pillow, and he calls himself a fairy of poetry and swords. Last year, he spent twenty-six taels of silver to hire someone in front of the prince and Miss Pei. It's not too shameful." Show your eyes! You are blind to see this kind of aristocratic family!"
The young woman pursed her lips, resentful, but did not dare to refute.
Pei Nanwei found it interesting, and couldn't help cheering up the little girl, saying: "This is the gifted scholar and beautiful woman mentioned in the book, which is very good. Xiao Yang, don't scare Granny Zhao, even though you are all surnamed Yang, if you In places other than Beiliang Road, especially in places like Jiangnan Road where there are many scholarly families, it is a bit troublesome. Why, because before the Great Qin Dynasty, marriages with the same surname were not disliked, but after the Great Qin Dynasty, marriages with the same surname have been eliminated. Marriage means that after the Great Qin Dynasty, there was no intermarriage between people with the same surname.
