After hearing the servant's reply, Chen Jiru frowned and said nothing, and the servant said again: "Mr. Mei, I saw Dong's family members coming in and out of Dong's Mansion, as if something big had happened. I also saw two people arrested and went in."
On the way back, I heard passers-by talking about the Dong family slaves and gangsters who were looking for the person who posted the poster——"
"What article?" Chen Jiru asked.
The servant said: "You don't know this, but it is making people panic."
Zhang Yuan and his eldest brother Zhang Dai looked at each other, and Zhang Yuan thought to himself: "Could it be the article 'The Theory of Calligraphy and Painting Difficult to Say the Voice of the Heart' that Jin Langzhi and the others posted?"
Chen Jiru asked the servant to step aside and took up the tea cup to drink tea. Except for the slight frown on his long brows, he could not see the slightest hint of embarrassment. This gentleman was extremely well-educated. There were two lines in his "Warning to the World": "You can clearly distinguish between right and wrong."
, What are you arguing about? People are fighting for their time and their anger is wasted. What are you upset about——"
Therefore, Chen Jiru was not embarrassed and asked Zhang Yuan with a smile: "Do you know what the article on the list is?"
Zhang Yuandao: "I guess it was someone who had been bullied by Dong who made a statement and confessed his grievances."
Chen Jiru said: "You don't have to be too strict when attacking people. You have to consider whether they can accept it." Chen Jiru was old-fashioned and knew that this matter was closely related to Zhang Yuan, so he said such a thing.
Although Zhang Yuan respects Chen Meigong very much, Chen Meigong can be said to have achieved the ultimate in being independent. His personal knowledge and life interest are admirable. Zhang Yuan can play chess and taste tea with Meigong, but
Unable to get to know each other better, he immediately said: "Junior believes that good people should be treated leniently and evil people should be treated harshly. The people in Huating are filled with resentment. Dong would rather guard against what others say!" He stood up and bowed and said, "Junior is young and energetic, and speaks outright.
Mr. Mei, don’t be surprised.”
Chen Jiru said with a smile: "No problem, but I have one more piece of advice: don't blame others for their small faults, don't reveal their selfishness, and don't think about people's old evils. These three can cultivate virtues and also avoid harm. This is not just for you.
In terms of entanglements with the Dong family."
This is a very wise philosophy of life. It also advises Zhang Yuan not to have too deep grudges with the Dong family. How could Zhang Yuan not understand and said: "If you are an official in the imperial examination and do not love the people, you are a thief in clothes; you talk about moral articles but do not practice them."
, that is a mantra, and this is the stereotype of the younger generation towards Dong Hanlin."
Chen Jiru waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's all, let's not talk about this. You two will follow me to Wanxian Lu. Take a look at the inscriptions I collected."
Chen Jiru collected many inscriptions, among which the famous ones are "Wind and Rain Bamboo Stele" by Su Shi, "This Junxuan Stele" by Huang Tingjian, "Stele of a Grade of Manna" by Mi Fu, "Stele of Farming Clouds and Fishing for the Moon" by Zhu Xi, Zhang Dai, Zhang Yuan
They followed Chen Jiru to see them, and Chen Jiru also gave them several volumes of rubbings of inscriptions——
At the beginning of the ceremony, Zhang Yuan said goodbye to Chen Jiru: "Thank you so much for your hospitality and kind words, Mr. Mei. I have to rush back to Qingpu to say goodbye to Mr. Mei."
Zhang Dai also bowed his head to the ground and said, "Goodbye Mr. Mei."
Chen Jiru sent Zhang Yuan and seven others to the "Linxia Garden by the Waterside". He watched Zhang Yuan and the others walk onto the vine bridge. He shook his head and said to himself: "Dong Gong has no good teaching skills. If he becomes an enemy of Zhang Yuan, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles."
The bamboo fence door opened with a creak, and the girl in the bamboo crown and cloth robe came out and stood next to Chen Jiru, holding a roll of light yellow bamboo paper in her hand, and her voice was as sweet as an oriole: "Mr. Mei, look at these two Zhang
What kind of person is he?"
Chen Jiru glanced sideways at this beautiful girl, and when he raised his eyes to look at Zhang Yuan and his entourage, she had already disappeared into the mountains, rocks and trees. He said: "A child prodigy at the age of ten, and a prodigy at the age of twenty. This is Zhang Dai. As for Zhang Yuan, I also see
It’s hard to tell that he is smart, sharp, and sophisticated yet sharp-edged. He really doesn’t look like a seventeen-year-old boy.”
The girl chuckled and said: "You are still a young man. Otherwise, why would you beat Mr. Dong Er with your own hands?" She snorted again: "But Dong Er also deserves a beating. Last time -" she pursed her delicate lips and said no more.
Go down.
Chen Jiru said with a "haha" smile: "Dong Zuchang should play, but this is also because of your beauty. When Fang was playing chess, Zhang Dai was not watching the chess. He was only watching you. Where is Zhang Yuan? Fortunately, he has the ability to play blindfolded chess.
, otherwise the chess game cannot be played."
The girl blushed on her cheeks, her face was full of peach blossoms, and she was extremely beautiful. She said coquettishly: "Mr. Mei makes fun of me." Her slender waist twisted slightly, her lips were slightly pursed, and her coquettish and coquettish attitude made Chen Mei Gong, who wrote "Song of Rehabilitation"
Even if the eyes are brightened, does beauty also have the effect of clearing eyesight?
Chen Jiru held a palmetto fan in his hand. He used the fan to block the sun and looked in the direction where Zhang Yuan and others were walking. He said, "Wang Guan, if you were asked to choose one of the two as your son-in-law, which one would you choose?"
At this time, the girl Wang Guan was no longer shy and said, "Wang Guan wants to marry a strange man in the world, and he is willing to be a concubine. Both of them are weak, so they cannot be considered strange men." When he said this, he suddenly remembered that night in the boat on the West Lake, Zhang
Yuan said, "Can a lady like Zhang Yimei drink with a bearded guest?" It seems that Zhang Yuan considers himself a strange man——
Chen Jiru said with a smile: "Then tell me, what is a strange man?"
The girl Wang Guan smiled sweetly and said: "A man like this is a strange man."
Chen Jiru slapped the girl on the head with a palm fan, laughed and scolded: "It's rude, is this what you should say to the teacher!"
The girl smiled coquettishly, clasping her hands together again, and said Zhuang Rong: "I am telling the truth, Mr. Mei is a real celebrity, strange man, if I can't find a home before I am twenty years old, I will come to Sheshan to stay with Mr. Mei.
Mei Gong takes you in."
Chen Jiru waved his fan and wanted to hit the girl, but the girl couldn't avoid him. She lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyelashes, as dignified as a dragon girl. Chen Jiru shook his head and said with a smile: "Ghost girl, you are teasing the teacher again. I am in decline. I am afraid of the difficulty of the imperial examination and the danger of official career, so I
He is just trying to survive by burning his scholarly crown, so he is not considered a strange man."
The girl said: "There are many strange men. Mei Gong is a strange man, and Li Zhuowu is also a strange man."
Chen Jiru smiled and said: "How many men do you know in the world? Zhuo Wu has passed away. What can I do?"
The girl smiled and said: "I will search high and low. If I don't get what I ask for, I will return to Sheshan. Mr. Youmei will take pity on me."
Chen Jiru shook his head and smiled, saying: "Wang Guan, if you can find a good home, you will be luckier than most women in the world, because you can choose your own husband. Although you cannot be your legitimate wife, as long as you are in love with each other, with your
With his good looks and cleverness, he deserves special favor."
The girl smiled and said, "Wouldn't it be bitter if you meet a rich lady who is jealous?"
Chen Jiru said: "If you don't get along, we will separate, or you may not live in the same place. This is your freedom, and you will have a man who is willing to pity you." He also said: "In my opinion, both Zhang Yuan and Zhang Yuan are very good, but Zhang Yuan and Dong Gong are enemies.
I don’t know what kind of trouble it will cause.”
The girl said: "Teacher really thought that I was married. I am only twenty-eight years old and I still want to travel more."
Chen Jiru smiled and said: "Wang Ruqian of She County invites you to visit Huangshan, and Mao Yuanyi of Wuxing invites you to visit Kuanglu. When will you go?"
The girl didn't answer, but said: "I want to go back to Nanjing first. I don't know when Er Zhang will go to Nanjing. I want to go with them. What does the teacher think?"
Chen Jiru said with a smile: "Very good. With your cunning and wisdom, you should be able to deal with them. They are not far away. Can someone chase them and ask?"
The girl then called out a boy with droopy hair and gave a few instructions. The boy agreed and ran away, walking along the rugged mountain road as if it were flat ground.
The girl's surname is Wang, her first name is Wei, her courtesy name is Xiuwei, and her diminutive is Wang Guan. She lost her father at the age of seven and was adopted by a wealthy family in Yangzhou who raised thin horses. Yangzhou thin horses were famous all over the world. When marrying concubines, the gentry preferred Yangzhou thin horses, which were the first-class thin horses.
There are dedicated female teachers who teach the thin horse how to play the piano, play the flute, recite poems, learn books, paint, go, play Shuanglu, play dominoes, as well as dress up, and teach them how to stand, sit and lie down. They even have to learn from "Embroidered Statues"
"The Biography of the Madam" is about learning the style of Zhen Shang and marrying this first-class skinny horse as a concubine. It costs no less than a thousand taels of silver, and it all goes to the family that raises the skinny horse. Raising such a skinny horse can make a net profit of more than five hundred taels of silver.
Therefore, there are no fewer than hundreds of households in Yangzhou who make a living by raising thin horses——
Wang Wei is the first-class Yangzhou thin horse. When he was twelve years old, he was bought by Ma Xianglan, a famous prostitute in the old courtyard of Nanjing, for 600 taels of silver. Wang Wei recognized Ma Xianglan as his mother. After Ma Xianglan carefully trained him, Wang Wei was not only good at
He played flute and go, and also had beautiful calligraphy and elegant poems. He was famous in Jinling and was known as the best in music. His fame has surpassed that of Li Xueyi, a famous prostitute in Qinhuaishui. Last year, Ma Xianglan died of illness, and the "Youlan Pavilion" was founded by Wang Wei.
When you are the master of your family, you are even more free. Wang Wei inherited Ma Xianglan's chivalrous spirit and socialized with famous people regardless of money, while rejecting all ordinary people and businessmen——
…
Zhang Yuan, his eldest brother Zhang Dai, Mu Jingyan, and Mu Zhenzhen said goodbye to Chen Meigong and wanted to cross Sheshan Mountain back to Lu's Manor. This section of the road is about five miles, and the trees are lush, so they don't feel the heat...
Zhang Dai said: "Mei Gong still speaks for Dong Qichang. He only thinks that Dong Zu often does evil and has nothing to do with Dong Qichang."
Zhang Yuandao: "The vast majority of people judge good and evil by how good they are to themselves. What is good to me is good, and what is bad to me is evil. Meigong is the first-class smart man. He sees clearly and is a good man.
.”
Zhang Dai said: "The article on the list that shocked Mr. Dong's father should be 'Calligraphy and painting are difficult to express from the heart'. Brother Jin and Brother Weng posted it, right?"
Zhang Yuan frowned slightly and said: "It should be that the Dong family is furious. I wonder if Bu Shicheng, a disciple of the Dong family, knows Brother Jin and the others. If he does, I'm afraid the Dong family will persecute Brother Jin and the others. We will rush to Huating early tomorrow morning.
Invite some people from Qingpu to go with you, and first go to Huang Guoding, the prefect of Songjiang, to challenge Dong in the name of punishing Huating for fighting, and see how Dong responds."
Zhang Dai said: "Okay, let Liu Jingting go with us. We only need to tell stories for one day, and those who hate Dong from Huating will gather together."
Taking advantage of the opportunity of attacking the Dong family to unite the students in the three counties of Songjiang is Zhang Yuan's strategy to kill three birds with one stone. His social alliance plan is about to be implemented——
A group of people went up to the top of Sheshan Mountain and looked back at the "Waterside Forest Garden" by the lake at the foot of the mountain. Zhang Dai said fondly: "That girl's crown is really stunning, the only one I've seen in my life."
Thinking of the girl in the bamboo crown and cloth robe, who looked like clear water and hibiscus, Zhang Yuan also nodded and said: "She is indeed stunning. I almost lost the chess game."
Zhang Dai said: "If Yan Ke knows that this girl is here, he will definitely regret not coming with us today. Don't mention it when we get back, otherwise he may have to rush over overnight, which will make Mei Gong laugh."
Zhang Yuan laughed.
