Yan Mansion is one of the best private residences in the capital. When you walk there, you can feel the luxury that hits you every step you take, and it is the kind of luxury that you can rely on without fear.
Because when Yan Song took over as the first minister ten years ago, Emperor Jiajing thought that Yan Song was already old and issued a special decree to allow him to build a mansion. Therefore, Yan's mansion could be as luxurious as he wanted without having to avoid the eyes of outsiders.
Zhu Ping'an walked with Yan Shifan for about ten minutes, passing through a garden, bypassing a lotus pond, passing through a bamboo forest, and walking on a secluded path before arriving at Jishi Garden, where the party was held.
At the entrance of Jishi Garden, a white jade screen wall was erected, on which was engraved an article called "Jishi Garden Notes".
Seeing that Zhu Pingan had noticed this article, Yan Shifan deliberately slowed down and let Zhu Pingan read it.
Seeing this, Zhu Ping'an understood something in his mind. He estimated that this article was the work of a famous artist, or the proud work of Yan Shifan or Yan Song.
So, Zhu Pingan stopped and admired:
"Send to the Garden"
The land was used as a garden, with a pavilion in the middle to provide for the rest of the swallows. A number of tall bamboos were planted, as well as a variety of wild flowers for fun. The order was: "Send a good place."
, the desire of constant love. However, when you are entrusted to the royal family, you stay in public all day long, take care of everything, and bow to all the responsibilities. When you hear the king's orders, you will act without hesitation, and if you write down the notes, you will keep writing. Although you want to express your feelings,
How could it be possible to live in a quiet and spacious place in the garden? The name of the garden was given to me, but I didn’t feel comfortable in it for a day. I chatted about my thoughts and words to explain my ridicule.
Jiajing Yisi Midsummer Notes.
The entire "Record to the Garden" is less than 200 words, and Zhu Pingan read it quickly. Although there is no signed author in this garden note, after reading it, Zhu Pingan can basically identify the author of this article.
Who is it?
Yan Song!!!
He is committed to the royal family, and he is on duty all day and night... Hearing the king's orders will carry out the work without delay, and the pen will keep writing when writing notes...
The article was inscribed in midsummer of Yisi, Jiajing. At that time, only Yan Song was qualified to express such emotion and have it engraved on the screen wall of Jishi Garden.
In this way, we can understand why Yan Shifan deliberately slowed down and gave himself enough time to appreciate this piece of "Ji Shi Yuan Ji".
However, it would be too funny for the treacherous minister Yan Song to express his concern for the country and the people and wish to go into seclusion.
Moreover, since Yan Song took office, his thoughts have been devoted to pleasing Emperor Jiajing, and his political achievements have not been much. Qing Ci has written a lot of poems, so-called "working long and long in the public affairs, taking care of everything", "taking responsibility for everything", "
"He who hears the king's orders will act without hesitation" and "the pen keeps moving" may be true, but "responsibility" and "wu" both refer to Qingci.
"Zihou, what do you think of this article?"
Seeing that Zhu Pingan had finished reading, Yan Shifan narrowed his one eye slightly, smiled at Zhu Pingan, and asked with interest.
how?
The author of this article is your father, Yan Song. If you ask me what I think, in front of you, of course, all I can do is praise.
After listening to Yan Shifan's inquiry, Zhu Ping'an was full of slander in his heart, but he had an expression of admiration on his face: "This garden note is simple in text, but the artistic conception is extremely lofty. After reading this garden note, I seemed to have seen a garden note.
As an elder in the palace, diligent in official duties, concerned about the country and the people, but also yearning for poetry and distant places, I seem to see him wandering among the lush bamboo forests and green, fat, red and thin flowers, and hear his words of wanting to go into seclusion but not being able to do so.
sigh."
"Poetry and the distance, haha, wonderful, wonderful, if the old man hears Zihou's comment, he will definitely make an exception and have a few more drinks..."
Yan Shifan was extremely satisfied with Zhu Pingan's comments. He couldn't help but patted his belly and laughed.
"Ah? Could it be that this masterpiece was written by Mr. Yan Ge?" Zhu Ping'an looked like he suddenly realized it, and said regretfully, "If I had known, Ping An would not have dared to comment on the work of Mr. Ge. Jiaque comments
The eagle is just a laughing stock.”
"Exactly, I can comment on the articles written by Kong Shengren, but I can't comment on the old man's articles." Yan Shifan smiled nonchalantly, then patted Zhu Pingan on the shoulder, "Zi Hou, let's go into the garden, don't let us go."
They've been waiting for a long time."
As soon as you enter Jishi Garden, you feel as if you have left the human world and entered a fairyland.
Pavilions, pavilions, green bamboos and fallen rocks; pools, pavilions and pavilions, fish playing in the green waves and dense flowers; blue waves rippling, the water and sky are the same color...
Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth. Just before the garden gate was screened, Yan Song said, "The land was acquired as a garden, and a tree in the middle is a pavilion for the birds to rest." He said that the garden was hard-won and it was very small. There was only a small pavilion, which was only enough for the birds to rest.
That's all.
Haha, this garden is really small...
It's so small that I can't even see the edge at a glance...
Zhu Ping'an cursed as he followed Yan Shifan and arrived at the Zhiyu Pavilion where the banquet was held.
Zhiyu Pavilion is located in the center of the rippling lotus pond. It protrudes into the pond and is surrounded by water on three sides: front, left and right. It is a loft-style building.
According to Yan Shifan's introduction, Zhiyu Pavilion was named by Yan Song himself. It was taken from the article "Zhuangzi. Autumn Water", "If you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of fish?" and "If you are not me, how can you know that I don't know the joy of fish?"
debate.
Approaching Zhiyu Pavilion, Zhu Pingan smelled the enticing aroma of wine and meat, heard the melodious sound of silk and bamboo, the ethereal singing of a singer, and the lively chatter and laughter of the guests.
"Haha, we're here."
Yan Shifan smiled and walked in first. Zhu Pingan followed Yan Shifan and walked slowly inside.
"Haha, Brother Donglou is finally back."
"Master Yan is back."
"Hey, I also brought back a distinguished guest."
As soon as they entered Zhiyu Pavilion, everyone in the pavilion greeted Yan Shifan one after another, and Yan Shifan responded with a smile.
Zhu Ping'an squinted his eyes, adjusting to the indoor light and observing the situation in the pavilion without leaving any trace.
The pavilion is spacious and beautifully and luxuriously decorated. On both sides of the pavilion, there are rows of beautiful women kneeling and playing the harp and flute. In the middle, there are two rows of scantily clad but veiled dancers dancing gracefully. Their graceful figures are all on display.
She is graceful and graceful, and her dancing posture is extremely provocative.
In front of the dancer, that is, in the middle of the pavilion, there is a huge round table, with a dazzling array of delicacies from the mountains and seas. There are more than ten officials sitting around the round table, each with a small and exquisite white jade wine bottle in his hand.
At this moment, seeing Yan Shifan come in, all the officials sitting around the table stood up and said hello to Yan Shifan.
Among the more than ten officials sitting around the table, Zhu Pingan also discovered several acquaintances, Zhao Wenhua, Ouyang Zishi, Luo Wenlong, and Zhang Juzheng was also there. When Zhu Pingan was about to look away, he discovered Zhang Juzheng in the crowd, and
It seems that Zhang Juzheng is quite familiar with Ouyang Zishi and others.
sharp!
Zhu Ping'an gave Zhang Juzheng a thumbs up in his heart. It was indeed Zhang Juzheng! This political talent must be at the highest level.
It's really hard to believe.
Zhang Juzheng was a student of his teacher Xu Jie. He came in and out of Xu's house as if he were in his own home. He enjoyed himself so much in the strict party, and he also got along like a fish in water in Prince Yu's house.
At the peak of his power now (Yan Song), at the peak of his power in the future (Xu Jie), and at the peak of his power in the future (Wang Yu), Zhang Juzheng has laid out all the plans. This political sense and talent are really amazing!
In other words, when Zhang Juzheng saw Zhu Pingan, his shock was not much less than Zhu Pingan's.
In his opinion, Zhu Ping'an was also a student of his teacher Xu Jie. He helped the teacher revise Qingci, and gave gifts during the New Year and holidays (from Li Shu's master).
Instead of being a lecturer in Prince Jing's Mansion, he became a lecturer in Prince Yu's Mansion. Now Yan Shifan personally led him to the banquet, looking like he was chatting and laughing happily.
Zhu Ping'an also failed in the place where he devoted himself to the layout.
