Chapter 207 Such a waste of flowers and willows

When they walked outside Jingci Temple, they met Jiao Runsheng and Luo Xuan's father. Luo Xuan's father said: "How late are you three? We are about to go looking for you. Mr. Yuyong is waiting to see you in the south garden where Deputy Ambassador Bao lives.

"

Zhang Yuan apologized: "I was traveling to the lake with my sister, so I was late."[]

The group then turned to the direction of Leifeng Pagoda. When Jiao Runsheng and Luo Xuanfu learned that Zhang Yuan had written two articles against Dong in the same night, they hurriedly asked to read them.

Cao Aman was so frightened that he forgot about his complaint about the headache."

Zhang E curled his lips and said: "Dong Qichang is far behind Cao Cao."

Jiao Runsheng said with a smile: "I am not comparing Dong Xuanzai to Cao Cao, but I am saying that Jie Zi's article will scare Dong Xuanzai into a cold sweat."

Luo Xuan's father said: "I'm afraid Mr. Yuyong won't allow us to denounce Dong Xuanzai like this——"

Jiao Runsheng said: "I will take these two articles to the school now and let students copy them. They will not sign Zhang Jiezi's name, but only publicize them in the name of students in Songjiang. On the surface, this has nothing to do with our school and will not be allowed to be copied."

Mr. Yong is in trouble."

Father Luo Xuan nodded and said: "That's very good - what do you think, Brother Jiezi?"

This was exactly what Zhang Yuan hoped for. Jiao Runsheng immediately returned to Juran Cottage after writing these two articles. Luo Xuan's father led the three Zhang Yuan brothers to the south garden of Zhejiang Chief Secretary's deputy envoy Bao Han. On this day, Deputy Envoy Bao Han

Also in the garden, Deputy Envoy Bao Yingdeng, whose name was Hansuo, had a good relationship with Zhang Rulin. When he saw the three Zhang Yuan brothers, he smiled and said: "It is rare, rare that the three heroes of the Zhang family went to the Imperial College to study together."

Huang Ruheng was holding a pair of dimming glasses in his hand, which Zhang Yuan asked Jiao Runsheng to send yesterday. Huang Ruheng said: "Zhang Yuan, these glasses are very good. I bought a pair of dimming glasses in Suzhou the year before last. They are not as good as the ones you sent."

Deputy clear——"

Suddenly, there was a crackling sound of porcelain being knocked over at the front steps of the hall. When everyone in the hall turned to look, a boy holding tea stood there with a sad face, holding a few tea cups in a lacquer tray.

All the lamps fell to the ground, the bluestone on the floor was hard, tea, and broken porcelain were all over the floor.

Bao Hansuo raised his eyebrows, and just as he was about to get angry, he suddenly laughed and said to Zhang Yuan: "Zhang Yuan, you said in front of Mr. Jiao Taishi and Mr. Yu Yong last year that this tea boy carrying tea in a tray walked up so many stone steps.

If he didn't make a mistake and broke the tea cup, wouldn't it be consistent with the Tao? We are the same person, but today he broke the tea cup. How can we say this?"

Huang Ruheng also laughed.

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "This moment, the other moment, it seems that the Tao is difficult. If you think that I have achieved the Tao now and have perfected my merits, then I am often just learning to walk in Handan, and I will not be able to walk even if I get lost.

Zhang Yuan's words were quite wonderful and thought-provoking. Bao Han praised him: "With his Zen skills, he is worthy of being the disciple of Mr. Jiao Taishi and Mr. Yu Yong." He also talked with Zhang Dai and Zhang E about Nanqu and asked about Zhang's dining class. Bao Han praised it:

He said: "I have a theater troupe in Beiyuan under Feilai Peak. When will I be able to perform on the same stage with your dining troupe to compete?" The theater troupe of Baohan Institute is famous in Hangzhou. The singers perform in plays and team dances.

Advocacy is nothing short of extraordinary.

Zhang Dai said: "Next time I come to Wulin, I will bring Keshi Ban and ask Deputy Bao for advice."

Huang Ruheng asked Zhang Yuan about his experience in the Taoist examination last month. Zhang Yuan reported everything in detail. Huang Ruheng encouraged the three Zhang Yuan brothers to study well in the Imperial College and strive for success in the provincial examination next year. When they talked about Zong Yishan, Huang Ruheng was helpless. He was obviously very impressed by Dong Qichang's actions.

Feeling regretful, Zhang Yuan talked about the Dong family's oppression of the Lu family in Qingpu and all the evil deeds in the fish and meat village. Both Bao Hansuo and Huang Ruheng shook their heads after hearing this. Huang Ruheng sighed: "Dong Gong has been misunderstood by his slaves."

Zhang Yuan thought to himself: "The words misunderstood by the slaves are taboo for the nobles. In fact, Dong Qichang is the chief culprit. Dong Zuyuan, Dong Zuchang and the Dong family slaves all relied on Dong Qichang's power to do evil. Dong Qichang often went in and out of the Songjiang prefecture's yamen. It was nothing more than

He is asking to protect his children and slaves."

Bao Han wanted to keep the Zhang Yuan brothers for dinner, but Zhang Yuan politely declined. Zhang Dai agreed with Bao Han about opera, so Zhang Dai stayed. Zhang E couldn't bear to be constrained in front of his elders, so he also resigned with Zhang Yuan, and the two hurried away.

When I arrived at Juran Cottage, I saw that the lecture hall was very lively. Some students were copying Zhang Yuan's article "On calligraphy and painting are difficult to express from the heart", and some were discussing how Dong Qichang would be shocked and angry after seeing these two articles. When he saw Zhang Yuan

It turned out that when Zhang E arrived, the hall became even more noisy. Jin Langzhi, Hong Daotai and other Songjiang students were particularly angry and made impassioned speeches, hoping to ruin Dong Qichang's reputation——

After a long discussion, the students decided to publicize this "Theory on Calligraphy and Painting Difficult to Say From the Heart" everywhere. As for the "Record of Dong Huan's Evil Deeds", Zhang Yuan did not want to publicize it in Hangzhou. This article was written for ordinary people to read.

Songjiang propaganda was more suitable. Zhang E said: "Meson, the year before last we dealt with Yao's lawsuit stick. Didn't we send people to neighboring counties to let some blind storytellers talk about Yao's disgusting scandal? This method is also useful against Dong Qichang."

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "We'll discuss this later at Songjiang Mansion."

Jiao Runsheng said: "General storytellers dare not say this kind of thing. I recommend a person. Liu Jingting, a calligrapher by the Wangxian Bridge in Hangzhou City, is known as Liu Mazi. This person dares to say it. It is said that this person also had some martial arts. When he was young, he

He is also a valiant and ruthless scoundrel. He lives in Jiangbei. He seems to have committed some crime and is living in the world incognito. This Liu Jingting is not his real name."

Zhang E smiled and said: "I have heard of Liu Mazi for a long time. I wanted to invite him to Shanyin to tell stories the year before last. But I forgot about it later. I must meet him this time, Jiezi. Tomorrow we will visit Liu Mazi with my eldest brother."

Zhang Yuan also wanted to meet this Liu Jingting. Zhang Dai's "Tao'an Dream Memories", Yu Huai's "Banqiao Miscellaneous Notes", as well as Qian Qianyi, Wu Weiye and other literary giants and poets have all written about Liu Jingting's storytelling, which is very exhaustive.

Praise, I think Liu Jingting’s storytelling is a unique skill——

As the sun set, the students of Jujuan School dispersed after school. Zhang Yuan, Zhang E took Wu Ling, Nengzhu and the others to the canal port. From Nanping Mountain to the canal port, it was sixteen or seven miles away.

Arriving at the Ningxiang Restaurant on the south bank of the West Lake, Zhang E said: "Brother, I was having a great time drinking and listening to music in Nanyuan. Let's have some wine and food at the Ningxiang Restaurant. After dinner, we'll hire a boat to cross the West Lake, and then go to the Broken Bridge.

It's much closer to go back to the canal boat, so you can save some leg effort.

The six masters and servants went to Ningxiang Tower and ordered some wine and food. Nengzhu ate some noodles in a hurry, and then was sent by Zhang E to wait for Zhang Dai in the South Garden, so that Zhang Dai could come to Ningxiang Tower after the banquet.

After having enough wine and food, Zhang E was a little bored and thought about yin1yu. He said to Zhang Yuan: "Jiezi, how about inviting two prostitutes to have fun?"

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "Let's vent our anger to your white-assed maid later when we return to the ship."

Zhang E laughed and said: "If I didn't love Lu Mei's white buttocks, I would have been tired of her long ago. I just want to taste something new when I go out. What's the point of looking at the old flowers and willows?"

Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes and said: "It's strange, isn't it true that prostitutes are in ruins?"

Zhang E said seriously: "I just like the new and hate the old. As long as I don't destroy it, it's not a lost flower. I'm like a virgin in a show, like a new woman."

Zhang Yuan was speechless.

Zhang E smiled and said: "Jiezi, I have a proposal. You can refuse it, but you can't get angry."

Zhang Yuan could tell by looking at the sinister smile on Zhang E's face that he had some dirty intentions, and said: "Stop talking, I will definitely be angry."

Zhang E said in astonishment: "Do you know what I'm going to say?"

Zhang Yuan said: "There are two big characters on your face, didn't you see?"

Zhang E rubbed his oily and sweaty face and said, "Where are the words!"

Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "The left cheek is 'obscene', and the right cheek is 'obscene'. Take a look in the mirror, it's so radiant."

Zhang E laughed heartily, knowing that Zhang Yuan really guessed what he was thinking. Zhang Yuan refused and did not dare to mention it again. Although Zhang Yuan was one year younger than him, since he lost to Zhang Yuan twice in bets the year before last, he

I was in awe of Zhang Yuan. Afterwards, Zhang Yuan won three consecutive victories, and his methods of rectifying Yao's lawsuit sticks were ruthless. He knew everything about new things such as myopia glasses and telescopes. Zhang E admired him even more. His eldest brother Zhang Dai was far inferior to Zhang Yuan.

This makes him admire——

Zhang E said: "That Li Xueyi, I must defeat you."

Zhang E suddenly said such a meaningless statement. Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then realized it and said with a smile: "Li Shiniang of the old Nanjing courtyard has nothing to do with me. If the third brother has any money, just throw it away."

Zhang E said: "Jiezi, don't you bet with me?"

Zhang Yuan shook his head and said: "I don't have that leisure time."

Zhang E said: "It's boring if you don't gamble. Let's gamble. Then you will pretend to be a poor scholar and I will be a wealthy young man. Let's see which Li Xueyi, who is known as the number one courtesan in Nanjing, loves."

Zhang Yuandao: "Third brother, my most important thing right now is to deal with the Songjiang Dong family. If I can't defeat the Dong family this time, I will suffer backlash."

Zhang E said: "How could I not know this? I will definitely help you, but you have to make a bet with me. If you think about beating Dong Zuchang all day long, it will relieve your hatred, but it will be boring. People must learn to enjoy themselves and sing to wine.

,The geometry of life.”

Zhang Yuan laughed: "Third brother is right, people must learn to enjoy themselves."

Zhang E said happily: "Then you agreed to bet with me?"

Zhang Yuandao: "I will make a bet with you if you defeat the Songjiang Dong clan in a fight."

Zhang E said: "Okay, it's settled." He got excited and clapped his hands on the table and sang loudly: "When we go into battle, Chilili has three locks of beautiful beard floating in the air, and his majestic tiger body of ten feet is swaying, just like the Six Ding God Cluster holding a living Shinto.

If the enemy army sees him, he will be frightened to the point where his seven souls will be scattered and his five souls will disappear——"

This is Guan Hanqing's drama "King Guan Goes Alone to the Single-Sword Meeting". Zhang E pretends that he is Guan Yu and wants to enter the Dragon Pool and Tiger Palace of Dong Family in Huating alone——

After singing and making noise for a while, Zhang Dai arrived, and the sound of gongs and clappers being knocked down could be heard in the distance: "Dudu - bang - bang -"

Zhang Yuan stood up and said: "Let's go, the store has hired a boat for us."

The three Zhang Yuan brothers and Wu Ling and other five servants boarded a three-row wave boat. This type of boat is also called a Huyangtou boat. It is popular in Jiaxing and is called a wave boat in Suzhou and Hangzhou. The standard is slightly smaller, but it can also accommodate

Twenty people and three oars rowed back and forth like flying.

Zhang Dai said: "Don't be busy crossing the lake, paddle slowly. There is something special about visiting the West Lake at night."

Zhang Yuan smiled. Brothers Zhang Dai and Zhang E are all very good at enjoying themselves. This is also very good. Why rush to cross the lake? Taking the opportunity of crossing the lake to appreciate the moonlight of the West Lake is a positive attitude towards life. I will come late tomorrow.

Isn't that why?

I have a weekend off tomorrow, so I will work harder.!
