Eunuch Zhong greeted Zhang Yuandao... Mr. Zhang, sit here. When our family sees a young talent like you, we will cherish it." He said in his heart: "What kind of Jiangzuo poet, Uncle Fang Wen, is this full house?
He is well-read in poetry and books, and has a great reputation. According to our family, he is not as good as this young man with his open nose. Only Zhang Yuan knows the origin of "catkins fly red, and even our family can't remember it. If it weren't for Zhang Yuan's reminder
, our wonderful words today are still ridiculed by these foreign officials, wouldn't it be a huge injustice?
There was a saying at that time: "Three xing'er, don't mess with them." Which three xing'er? They are the eunuch xing'er, the daughter's xing'er, and the scholar xing'er. These three kinds of people are not easy to mess with. Scholars in the late Ming Dynasty often gathered to make trouble.
, even the government is afraid that scholars are the most difficult to offend, because the eunuch's temperament is similar to that of a woman. Xie Zhaozhi, the head of the Nanjing Ministry of Industry, once said, "Eunuchs and women watch miscellaneous plays, and when their characters are in trouble, they all burst into tears.
"Many people laugh at it." Moreover, the eunuch's character was even more exaggerated, moody,
You will make trouble at will, you will shed a lot of tears, your temperament will change uncertainly, and it is difficult to grasp it. But if you can get it right as usual and match his feelings, he will regard you as a confidant and even be willing to die for you. Of course, if you offend him
Him, his revenge is also fierce and cruel...
Eunuch Zhong is a eunuch who cares about face, especially among the literati. Now that Zhang Yuan had graced him with a poem, he caught his eye. Eunuch Zhong felt that among all the distinguished people, he and Zhang Yuan were the only ones in the room.
The two most talented ones were him first, Zhang Yuan second, and the rest were mostly people seeking fame and reputation, which almost caused him to lose face. Therefore, Eunuch Zhong cherished Zhang Yuan and naturally wanted to support him.
The attendant quickly brought an armchair and placed it next to Eunuch Zhong. Zhang Yuan sat down. Eunuch Zhong looked at him carefully and praised him: "What a man!" He asked Zhang Qilian: "Since Wang Tixuedu
Praising him, why is he still a scholar in blue?"
Zhang Rushuang replied: "Because my grandson is young, he has never taken the scientific examination before. He is sixteen years old this year and has made great progress in his studies, so he will take the county examination next month."
Eunuch Zhong then laughed and said: "I see, it's strange that there is no merit, but it turns out that the exam has not started yet. Our family expects Mr. Zhang to be a blockbuster this time. If our family is still in Hangzhou for the provincial exam next year, Mr. Zhang will definitely come.
When the weaving bureau came to see my family, we couldn’t write eight-part essays, but we could talk about poetry and lyrics.”
Zhang Yuan thought to himself: "Eunuch Zhong is very enthusiastic. He almost feels like he has been promoted to three levels at nine thousand years old." He said respectfully: "1. If you go to the martial arts world, you must meet your father-in-law and listen to his teachings.
His nonsense poem actually coincided with the ancients. Eunuch Zhong became interested again and said with a smile: "The Jiegu drum is only passed down once. Is it possible that today only one person in our family can play the drum?"
The sound of Jie drum started again. As soon as Eunuch Zhong handed Zhang Yuan the plum blossom in his hand, the drum sound stopped. Eunuch Zhong laughed sharply and said: "This is intentional to make things difficult, definitely to make things difficult. Haha, Mr. Zhang is looking at you."
"Zhang Yuan stood up and said: "1 When I was thinking hard about the origin of Eunuch Zhong's poem, I had already thought of a Song Dynasty poem with the words "fly, red," and asked "huāhuā" with tears in his eyes without saying a word, and the red color flew across the swing." Zhang Qilian.
He smiled and said: "Yes, this is a good sentence from Ouyang Xiu of the Song Dynasty. Eunuch Zhong, I must have remembered it correctly this time."
Ouyang Xiu's poem "Que Butterfly Lian Huā" happened to be well known to Eunuch Zhong, and he said happily: "That's right, that's right, our family's phrase "The catkins are flying and they are red" is a poem about Ouyang Xiu's Pingshan Hall, and Mr. Zhang's poem is also
It was written by Ouyang Xiu. Our family has a suggestion. The poems written by Fei Hongling must be related to Pingshan Hall or Ouyang Xiu."
At this time, all the wise men present were stumped. Only Wang Siren caught up with Ouyang Xiu's lyrics. "Pretty in Pink sings a beautiful song, frightening the mandarin ducks, and they fly towards each other." It's actually three lines long. Eunuch Zhong saw that Wang Siren was Zhang Yuan's teacher.
For his own sake, all the others who couldn't match up were forced to drink wine as a punishment. This made Eunuch Zhong feel like "the only heroes in the world are Zhijun and Caoer", and Zhang Yuanji was pleased with him.
While they were having a good time and enjoying the banquet, they suddenly heard a commotion outside the Xingxiu Pavilion. It seemed that there was a dispute. Zhang Qilian said displeasedly: "This is a good night and a festival. Instead of admiring the lanterns, we started to quarrel and disturbed the guests from far away."
interest."
Xu Shijin, the prefect of Shaoxing, and Hou Zhihan, the magistrate of Shanyin County, stood up quickly and went out to see which blind idiots wanted to be beaten. Zhang Yuan faintly heard the voice of Xiao Xi Nu Wuling in the argument, and remembered what he had just encountered on Penglai Gang.
The young master who shouted at the slave quickly stood up and said: "Young man, please go out and have a look. Could it be related to your family?" Eunuchs like to be lively and quarreling. Eunuch Zhong said: "Then let's go and watch together.
Take a look and comment."
Everyone in Geping rushed out.
The top of Longshan slopes from east to west. The highest point in the east is Xingxiu Pavilion. There are more than a hundred steps from Xingxiu Pavilion to the cliff in the west. There are mountains, rocks and trees, and lights are everywhere. When Shang Danran and others saw Zhang Yuan entering Xingxiu Pavilion, they went to other places to look.
After the lamp went off, 1 Xiao Jingwei looked at Kuaiji City in the distance and asked Shang Danran: "Auntie, where is our home?"
Shang Danran pointed out: "Did you see it? That is Baima Mountain, and our home is at the foot of Baima Mountain." Xiao Jinghui stood on tiptoe and looked hard, shook his head and said: "I can only see the shadow of the mountain, but not our home."
Shang Danran smiled and said: "It's too far away. Of course I can't see it. I just know that my home is at that location...
Xiao Jinghui looked carefully for a while and said: "There are too many lights. If only our house lights up lights in Kuaiji City, we can see our home."
Shang Jinglan said: "1 Xiao Hui, you are so domineering, you don't allow others to light lamps."
Shang Zhoude laughed and said: "There is a story in Lu You's "Notes on Laoxue'an" that only state officials are allowed to set fires and the people are not allowed to light lamps." When he told the story to the two little sisters, Jinglan and Jinghui listened with laughter.
"Laughing straight.
Xiao Jinghui said: "I'm not that domineering, I'm just talking." But then he said: "The elder brother Zhang's house is close to here, can auntie see where it is?"
Shang Danran said with a smile: "You can't tell, and I don't have it~" and remained silent.
Wu Ling on the side said: "Let me see, let me see." As soon as he found the location of Fuxue Palace, his left arm was suddenly grabbed by someone, and a voice said: "This little brother, please take a step to speak." He couldn't help but drag him.
Wu Ling came to a huge rock. When Wu Ling broke away and looked around, he saw a big man in blue shirt dressed as a servant. There were several other men in the same attire beside him. At a glance, he knew he was a powerful slave of the powerful family and looked like a clean guest.
The middle-aged man came over and said with a smile: "This little brother, I have something to ask you."
Wu Ling was almost dragged over. He was very unhappy. He turned around and looked over. Several of Shang's servants didn't know why. They thought Wu Ling knew them, so they didn't ask anything. They just looked over at Qing.
Seeing that the little Xi slave looked indifferent, the guest took out a dozen copper coins and said, "This is for you." He spread his hands and waited for Wu Ling to come and get it.
Wu Ling really didn't take the money seriously and said, "I don't want the money, what do you want?"
The Qing guest turned to Shang Danran and asked, "Where are you from, and what is the name of the master of the family?"
Wu Ling said: "Of course we are from Shaoxing, but where do you come from?" From the accents of the noble slave and this Qingke just now, they don't sound like locals.
The Qingke didn't answer, but asked: "Who is the head of your family? Also, has that young lady over there ever been married?"
Wu Ling immediately became vigilant and said: "That Miss Shang is my young mistress who has not yet married into the family. She has already been hired." This was to remind the other party not to have wishful thinking.
Before the Qing guest could ask further questions, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes came out from behind the boulder and said impatiently: "If you have anything to say to such a little slave, go and invite his master, and I'll talk to him directly."
He pointed at Shang Zhoude.
The Qing guest then walked towards Shang Zhoude. Two servants of the Shang family stopped him. The Qing guest bowed and said, "My young master has something to discuss with your master."
Shang Zhoude didn't know what was going on, and he didn't recognize the young master. But when he saw Wu Ling passing by first, he thought it was related to Zhang Yuan, so he walked over and cupped his hands and said, "I don't know why you are summoned?"
The young master bowed and said, "You haven't asked me your name yet?"
Shang Zhou De said: "I am Shang Zhou De, from Kuaiji. What is your surname?"
The young master said: "My father, Dong Xuanzai."
Shang Zhoude was stunned for a moment, then he showed his face and said: "It turns out that he is Dong Hanlin's son. I have admired him for a long time."
Dong Xuanzai is Dong Qichang. In the 17th year of Wanli, he ranked first among the second-class Jinshi in the Jichou Division and was awarded the title of Shujishi.
He was an editor at the Hanlin Academy, an expert in poetry and prose, and good at calligraphy and painting. His talents attracted the attention of the capital. He was selected as a lecturer for the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Changluo. He later became deputy envoy to Shandong and participated in politics in Henan.
He became more and more sophisticated and became more and more famous. Even North Korean envoys who came to the capital would search for Dong Qichang's calligraphy and paintings and bring them back to the capital of Seoul. This young man was Dong Zuchang, the second son of Dong Qichang.
He came from the famous place, but met Shang Danran in Longshan. She was of extraordinary beauty, and the Hu maid next to her was also very pretty, so I wanted to find out whose girl it was?
When Dong Zu often meets people for the first time, his first words are often "Father Dong Xuanzai". These five words are very effective. As long as they are scholar-bureaucrats and scholars, there is no one who does not know the name of his father Dong Qichang. This time in front of Shang Zhoude
Shang and Zhoude immediately looked up to him for a long time.
Dong Zuchang then reported his name: "Dong Zuchang was born late, but he is not yet married. I don't know who that girl is Mr. Shang. I am very fond of him when he is late, and I want to marry Qin and Jin." In fact, Dong Zuchang had a wife and concubines, and he was not married. This is nonsense. Let's fool him first.
Let’s talk about it later.
Zhou Dewu of Shang Dynasty looked at it and said, "That is my sister-in-law. She is engaged to a descendant of Zhang family in Shanyin."
Dong Zuchang said: "It doesn't matter if we have a marriage contract. I am willing to pay ten times the amount of money to help Mr. Shang get married. My father is also grateful for his virtue."
Zhou De of Shang Dynasty was very displeased. It was already very rude to talk about marriage when they met on the road. This was to look down on his Shang family. Did he regard his Shang family as a small family with a rich family? And he was fired after the exit.
The marriage contract is even more outrageous and rude, with a gift of ten times the amount of money. Humph, do I, the Shang family in Kuaiji, lack money?
My father in the late Ming version is Li Gang. Hey, book friends, please encourage me by counting the votes. I hope I can reach 900 votes today, only 17 votes short@.
