Xie Fu asked again: "Then if the young master can create such a painting, he will not be able to win the favor of the brothel lady."
Butler Kong smiled bitterly and said: "Master Xie, you are joking. Master... To put it bluntly, it is only half a bucket of water."
Xie Fu continued: "If the young master understands that having talent and learning can win the favor of the brothel lady, do you think Mr. Tantai will work harder?"
Butler Kong has already vaguely thought of something.
Xie Fu said with a smile: "Only when the young master tastes the sweetness, will he know that reading is good and wonderful. If you persuade him to study hard all day long, without hope, how can he have any thoughts on reading and writing?"
Steward Kong suddenly realized, "Mr. Xie, you are just playing into his own favour, fighting fire with fire!"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "By the way, that's almost not what I meant."
Butler Kong said happily: "Thank you, Master, I trust you now. If you need anything, just ask, I will fully cooperate with you."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "No, just continue to be your housekeeper, and leave the young master to me."
"Thank you, Master. I'll beg you to guide him to the right path."
"You are Welcome."
From the quarrel just now, Xie Fu could actually tell that Butler Kong was sincerely doing good for Tantai Wenwang, so there was naturally no big flaw in what he said just now.
When Xie Fu returned to the study, Tantai Wenwang seemed to be still sulky and sat silently.
When Tantai Wen saw Fu Xie coming back, he raised his head and glanced at him, and said calmly: "You should go back first."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Sir, aren't you going to Qin Tower?"
Tantai Wenwang was annoyed: "What do you mean? I'm imprisoned in this courtyard, how can I get out?" He didn't expect Xie Fu to be able to convince Butler Kong. In order to ground him, Butler Kong did not hesitate to offend and contradict him.
How could I be persuaded by a pretty boy? It's just nonsense.
Xie Fu smiled and said, "I have already convinced Butler Kong."
"What did you say!" Tantai Wenwang jumped up from his chair, looked at Xie Fu with a smile on his face, and hurried to the door with suspicion, only to see a few servants guarding the courtyard door.
, I don’t know when I left.
To prove it, Tantai Wenwang walked out of the yard where he lived without anyone stopping him.
Tantai Wenwang rushed back and gave Xie Fu a big hug, "That's great. How did you convince him?"
Xie Fu said with a smile: "Of course, you are moved by emotion and enlightened by reason. You are the young master and he is a subordinate. He is the one who offends the superior."
Tantai Wenwang let go and stared at Xie Fu, "I don't believe it! This old guy is stubborn and regards my sister's words as an imperial edict."
Xie Fu said with a smile: "Okay, I promise him that I will let you study hard and bring glory to your family."
Tantai Wenwang blurted out: "There is no door!"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "Sir, you can do it."
"Stop being so self-righteous, help me win tonight's poetry contest and then we'll talk about it."
…
Xie Fu and Tantai Wenwang took a carriage together and headed to Qin Tower.
Riding a carriage is a rare thing for Mr.
People who can also afford wealth.
After a while, the carriage arrived at the entrance of Qin Tower, and the two of them got off the carriage. By this time, there were already crowds of carriages and horses, and a huge flow of passengers.
Xie Fu looked at Tantai Wenwang next to him. He seemed to have stage fright and took a deep breath.
Tantai Wenwang only had financial resources left to show off. People who entered the brothel were most indispensable for those who were rich. Wealth was just a sign of entry, while talent and learning were the real things worth showing off. This brothel also had the most prosperous exchanges of literary styles.
The place.
Tantai Wenwang looked at Xie Fu and ordered in turn: "Calm down, don't embarrass me for a while, just keep talking." In Tantai Wenwang's opinion, Xie Fu was just a stranger.
A poor scholar who has passed away from the world.
Xie Fu smiled. This calmness made Tantai Wenwang quite satisfied, "Well, the current performance is much better than that of the servants I brought. Let's go in."
Tantai Wenwang led the way, followed by Xie Fu, and the two stepped into the gate of Qin Tower. In the high hall, guests were bustling with guests, and it was almost full. In the middle of the singing stage, there was a young singer singing a tune.
Xie Fu scanned the lobby and saw that the painted pillars and carved beams were magnificent and extremely luxurious, not much different from the Qin Tower in Yangzhou.
Tantai Wenwang led Xie Fu towards the central staircase, seemingly going upstairs. When passing by the singing stage on the side, Tantai Wenwang stopped and stood by the stage, closing his eyes and listening to the music.
, his mouth involuntarily hummed along with the tune.
Now they were approaching the singing stage, and when Xie Fu listened, he realized that the song sung by this young actor was actually "The Long River Years". This song was composed on the spot in Qinlou, Yangzhou. When Xie Fu listened to the lyrics of the song again, he was surprised.
It was word for word, and he could already conclude that this piece of music was indeed composed by him. There were similarities between the music and the lyrics, but the lyrics definitely did not have the same meaning.
Could it be that there is some connection between Yangzhou Qin Tower and Suzhou Qin Tower...
After Xiao Ling finished singing the song, Tantai Wenwang looked unfinished and said with emotion: "It's a good song, it's really a good song. I feel so happy when I listen to it. I don't know Li Shaodian, who calls himself a romantic eunuch."
Xie Fu heard this and blurted out: "What? Which Li Shaodi?"
Tantai Wen Wang proudly said: "Look at your experience. You don't even know Li Shaodian, that romantic and eccentric man in Yangzhou City. Don't say you know me in the future!"
Xie Fu was stunned for a moment, what kind of romantic method, what kind of prostitute method, who defiled him like this, he would just stay in the brothel, compose a few tunes, write a few poems, he asked softly: "Young Master,
you sure?"
Tantai Wenwang asked instead: "What are you sure about?"
"Are you sure that Li Shaodian is a real romantic and a real mischievous guest?"
Tantai Wenwang said resolutely: "Of course, Li Shaodian tortured the top five famous actors on the Yangzhou Lingyun House Flower List for three days and three nights. Those five famous actors couldn't get out of bed for ten and a half months.
I even have to support the wall when I walk on the bed. Li Shaodian is the object of my admiration. I just want to be like him, be as romantic as him, be as popular as him among famous actors and actresses, and be as "fierce" as him."
Mr.
Helping with writing and drawing, are these famous actors destroying his reputation because they hold grudges in their hearts?
"Sir, you'd better not imitate these rotten people and concentrate on reading and writing."
Tantai Wenwang heard this and said angrily: "You dare to say that my idol is a rotten person. What the hell are you? You apologize to my idol now."
Xie Fu was a little dumbfounded and replied: "I will not apologize."
Tantai Wenwang threatened: "If Tantai Heqing knows that you peeked at her bathing, what do you think she will do to you?"
