The clouds in the sky are soft and soft, like fine fish scales. When the afternoon sun shines through the clouds in the sky, birds fly across the sky over the lake. The waves of the West Lake are quiet, and Xiaoyingzhou is located in it. This is the water
The most beautiful garden is surrounded by lush green trees on the embankment, with pavilions and curved bridges located in it. As people gather around the embankment, the lotuses in the water are blooming lushly and pink.
In the center of Xiaoyingzhou is the Baoning Temple. Some people took advantage of the time to go inside to offer incense and worship Buddha.
This kind of pattern will no longer be seen in later generations.
The boats one after another are like a crescent moon surrounding Xiaoyingzhou, and a lot of people have gathered on the big boat in the center. According to the previous procedures, around midnight, everyone got on the boat and started to take their seats.
, then the prefect spoke, and several elderly people also spoke, and then everyone discussed and exchanged. In the sunset, the chef of Fuqing Tower served exquisite meals, ate, drank, recited poems and composed poems. In the evening, they enjoyed the night view and put out lanterns and water lanterns.
, which is basically a process like this.
At this time, there is still some time before everyone can board the boat. In fact, the official time is from three to five o'clock in the afternoon, and when everyone is officially seated and the prefect and others come out, it usually takes two quarters of the official time, which is four o'clock in the afternoon.
After Zhong. Before this, for example, the current Hangzhou magistrate Lu Tuizhi, the great scholar Qian Xiwen, Mu Bochang, Tang Xiuxuan and others would basically visit each other or meet some people in private. What are the benefits of this?
Whether the communication is deep or shallow is not enough for outsiders to understand.
The Beginning of Autumn Poetry Festival in the city of Hangzhou, which began during the three-year drought of Jinghan in the Wu Dynasty, once decided many things, both bright and dark. Of course, for people like Ning Yi and his wife who just arrived in Hangzhou this year, even if
No matter how talented they are, it is naturally difficult to understand the content. After this, they will have little chance to understand what the content is.
The poetry meeting held in Jinghan's ninth year did not go to the end.
Then something happened suddenly during the poetry meeting, which shook the entire southeastern land in an unexpected manner, and also caused many things to fail to reach their conclusion. Of course, at this time, everything
People are still doing their things as usual, looking forward to the next natural event. In the shade of the trees on the embankment, the woman playing the piano plucks the music and sings softly, letting the wind carry her singing voice in this state.
Spread on the Internet.
On the Qian family's boat, Qian Xiwen had just met the nephew of the Chang family. At this moment, he said something to the housekeeper, and also asked a few questions about Ning Yi and his wife. He gave Ning Yi a post, which he had made insinuating before.
He asked Lou Jinlin about Miss Su's family and Ning Yi. If Ning Yi came to visit him at this time, he would want to meet him, but Ning Yi and his wife were said to have arrived, but they did not board the ship directly to ask for an audience.
It actually made him a little amused, so he just smiled and asked Qian Yu to go out and ask some other people to come in and sit.
In fact, what he is good at is his knowledge. He gives lectures everywhere on weekdays. Above the interests of his family, he pursues the general trend of moderation. If others are eager, he can understand it, but he may not like it in his heart.
On the other hand, after leaving the Qian family, the current head of the Chang family began to visit Uncle Mu, Tang Xiuxuan and others. On the way, he was greeted by many people and exchanged greetings.
It became the center point of everyone, almost blocking the weir on the embankment.
The heads of several really big families in Hangzhou are all profoundly knowledgeable people. After all, this is a world of literati. If poetry cannot be passed down to the family, there will be no real climate. Chang Yu'an of the Chang family passed away at the beginning of this year.
However, due to the good foundation, the Chang family did not decline in Hangzhou at this time. On the contrary, because the head of the family at this time was Chang Yuan's son, all the old people were treated like nephews. In this poetry meeting, as long as they know each other
Yes, the elders will inevitably greet him, and the younger generation will also have to recall Chang Gong's achievements and sigh endlessly. At the banquet later, the prefect will inevitably have such a theme in his mouth, as long as he can grasp it
Well, the Chang family will be the protagonists of this banquet.
In the eyes of literati, all kinds of greetings here are mostly people who follow the trend. Over there, under the shade of the trees and in the cool breeze, there are already well-dressed scholars and students swinging folding fans while listening to the words of several girls.
While playing music on the harp, he began to compose poems according to the circumstances. Occasionally, he came up with some excellent works, which were spread around.
Moored among the many boats, on top of the Lou family's painting boat, Lou Jinlin saw off an old man who was visiting, with a smile on his face and thinking about something just now. On the lake just now, the Qian family's
The boat came over on its own initiative, and Qian Xiwen cordially invited him over to talk. This incident made him feel confused now.
The Qian family and the Lou family didn't have much contact before. The other party was a heirloom of poetry and calligraphy and a large landowner. The Lou family was at most a big family that had many connections in the officialdom, so it was able to move up.
.In the eyes of others, the status of the two families may be only a hair's breadth apart, but he knows that without the hard work and luck of one or two generations, they may not be able to catch up with this distance. Qian Xiwen is not much older than him.
There are too many, but if they meet each other, Lou Jinlin still has to call him Mr. Qian.
Originally, the two families had not had much contact with each other, but the other party suddenly came over and had a casual chat. Although he was also a man who had experienced many storms, it was difficult for him to understand what the other party was thinking and whether it was a hint of intimacy.
Or is it because Chang Yuan passed away, and those old people are preparing to attack the Chang family for some reason? If those people really get angry at a certain point, and the Lou family will take action according to the opportunity, this ambiguous hint is actually enough.
.I just don’t think it’s possible no matter how much I think about it.
During Qian Xiwen's chat, he also mentioned Ning Yi and Su Tan'er, but in Lou Jinlin's heart, he naturally wouldn't think of this as such a reason. The distance between the Lou family and the Su family is actually different from that of the Qian family.
The situation of the Lou family is similar. When I asked Su Tan'er to marry Lou Shuheng, it was purely because I thought Su Tan'er could be a good wife to the second son. However, at that time, I was in a condescending mood, and later the two parties fought.
It's normal to give up just haha.
This time Su Tan'er and Ning Yi came over. Although they had warmly entertained them once, they actually had no special mood. They said that the original engagement was just a joke. Lou Jin came here and didn't think there was anything strange about this couple. Of course,
Su Tan'er has some abilities, but so does her daughter. They are best friends, and that is their business. Ning Yi is the number one talent in Jiangning, but even his son-in-law Song Zhiqian, if he comes to Jiangning, he will definitely be able to call himself the number one talent in Hangzhou.
Who knows, when he reaches his status, being a talented person is no longer a very amazing status.
It's okay to approach Qian Xiwen, a great scholar, in the name of the number one talent. But even if he is the number one talent, it is impossible for Qian Xiwen to come and ask about their relationship in person. Therefore, Lou Jinlin did not tell these things.
Include in thoughts.
In the side hall of the main ship at the venue, a group of officials and students were gathered here. The leader was Lu Tuizhi, the prefect of Hangzhou at this time. This prefect Lu had an easy-going temperament, at least he liked people who seemed unruly. At this time
It's not a formal occasion, and everyone can talk happily with each other. A large group of men gather together, and the conversation is not about football, but basically politics.
"...There is a war in the north, and I want to join the army and go north with my king's army to drive out the Tartars and recover Yanyun..."
"...Brother Liang Gaoyi, it's just that the war between Jin and Liao has been going on for a long time, but there is no news of the exact use of troops in the capital. Could it be..."
"...Zi Ran is overly worried. In fact, the Sixth Army in the North has been reorganizing recently, and now there is news of Qin Xiang's return. This shows that our emperor had a long-term plan and had been preparing for this matter for eight years. In my opinion, it will never end in an anticlimax.
, it only takes more than a month to see the outcome..."
"...It seems that we have deliberately chosen to launch our troops before the autumn harvest. After we launch our troops, there will be new grain, so that the existing grain supply will not be in short supply..."
"... Our area of Suzhou and Hangzhou has always been a land of plenty. I must have shouldered the burden of warehousing and transshipment. When the time comes, the prefect will have to work hard."
"...It's a pity that banditry still exists in the southwest, and it seems to be getting worse in recent days..."
"...Hey! Brother Chen's words are wrong. The bandits are nothing more than Xianjie's fault. In my opinion..."
The liveliness in one place, the thoughts and ideas in one place, these are just interludes. On the eve of the poetry meeting, the small and not surprising little interludes merged into the grand scene of everyone gathering on Xiaoyingzhou.
At the same moment, Lou Shuheng was standing on the ship's side platform and looking down. The platform on the second floor of this flower boat was relatively high. Looking down from here, the cofferdam of Xiaoyingzhou was covered with lush trees. You could see it from a distance.
At the Baoning Temple located over there, the sun shone down from the sky and fell on his body, making him a little hot. Therefore, most people preferred to walk in the shade of the road below at this time.
Lou Shuheng had just escaped from the compliments of a group of people. At this time, there was no one around him, and he suddenly felt particularly careless. He felt that the current situation was quite boring.
In fact, he often feels like this - maybe everyone does, but his mood just now is probably mainly because of one thing: he just met Su Tan'er.
The incidental process is as follows:
He came over there with some friends and met everyone writing poems. He was very poetic at that time and composed a poem on the spot. The style of the poem was relatively wild and uninhibited, and it was done in one go. His consistent style was that people
Praising the legacy of the Tang Dynasty, after writing it for so many years, this poem can now be regarded as one of the masterpieces. The important thing is not the poem, but the demeanor, mood and literary grace when writing the poem. When he is proud, he
I also noticed that when I was composing the poem just now, Su Tan'er and another woman were watching from the side. That woman should be Luo Tian's wife Wen Haiying. The two of them obviously admired him greatly.
Then he said hello and the other person left.
This is also normal, and for Lou Shuheng, it is normal to write poems and be admired by others. There is nothing surprising. He didn't think about anything at the time, but then he ran over to drink water. When there was no one around, he felt a wave of excitement in his heart.
Ideas came to me.
It was mainly about Su Tan'er's appearance, smile, and ability in the shopping mall. She was running around here and there these days, doing this and that. He couldn't say that he was very attracted to Su Tan'er at first. After all, Yu Hua Cong has been around for so many years.
Su Tan'er is a beauty, but it's true that she has seen Lou Shuheng who is more beautiful than her, but they are not as independent as her, and they don't have her... temperament. And the most important thing is that her father Yue Yu jokingly said before
When he said, "This Miss Su almost became your wife..." her mood rose again.
There is a possibility that conquering such a woman is completely different from conquering other girls. Just think about it at this time, and his heart will inevitably flutter. For example, if his sister sometimes makes fun of him, he doesn't feel it at all.
Getting engaged might have been a big deal at first, but these feelings are inevitable.
Now that she saw herself writing poetry, what was she thinking? She had seen the serious look in her eyes just now, and she must have admired her. It was a pity that she was already married, and she was still the most talented person in the family.
Even if there is some talent, everyone is completely different in temperament and momentum, how can they be compared?
These emotions were floating in my heart, and suddenly I was too lazy to mess with those people. I just expressed my feelings. At this time, my heart was lonely, and I felt like "the heart is like a tiger, sniffing the roses, and after the feast, tears streaming down my face." Then,
Stroll down.
He walked among the crowd. For a while, none of his friends came over. Even if someone said hello, he just smiled and nodded casually. He didn't want to talk at this time. When he was about to reach the fork in front, he saw a woman under a book in front of him.
She was playing and singing, and two women next to her were chatting and laughing with her. There was a group of people surrounding her. He knew those women and had been flattering them for a long time. Although he was still a member of the Qing Dynasty, he didn't have any challenge or the desire to be attentive in the past. It was nothing.
good-looking.
He looked to the other side, and there were also people walking. It was really boring... But then, he saw two figures by the lotus pond.
The two people were also listening to the piano. Because there were too many people around here and it was too disgusting, they stood on the other side of the lotus pond and looked sideways under the tree. One of them was Ning Liheng, and the other one was Ning Liheng.
, but it was a well-behaved maid next to Su Tan'er, whose name he didn't know.
At this time, you can go over and say hello, but he frowned slightly after looking here for a while. The master and the servant were talking over there. The little maid was sometimes laughing, sometimes frustrated, sometimes slightly angry, sometimes coquettish, and sometimes...
He jumped up and looked at the woman playing the piano on the other side of the pool. Ning Liheng also had a smile on his face, which was a little different from the conservative look he had when he was with Su Tan'er. Then Lou Shuheng discovered that Ning Liheng
At one point he even held the little maid's hand.
So kind...
He shook his fan, smiled here, and then looked around, thinking: What would happen if Su Tan'er saw this scene? He didn't bother to tell the truth, but Su Tan'er didn't appear in sight either.
In the midst of complicated thoughts, he walked over there, preparing to scare them. It was quite interesting.
The one who hooked up with the maid is no different from the groom who made the maid's belly bigger...
This is what he thought. As he got closer and closer, some thoughts in his heart suddenly sprouted and expanded instantly.
He has always been a romantic person, so he thought of it, so he did it...
Here, the back figures of Ning Yi and Xiaochan are also a small episode on this big stage, and will soon become a slightly larger medium-sized episode.
Lou Shuheng walked up behind the two of them and patted Ning Yi on the shoulder.
"Ning Liheng!"
The moment Ning Yi turned around, he punched him...

I've passed a hurdle. I wrote, deleted, and deleted this chapter. I deleted no less than 10,000 words. It's a complete tragedy, but I finally got over it... Go to the book review area and post one of the longer scraps. Those who are interested can take a look...
