The ninth time, the king's cup of wine pours the flag, Mr. Wu has no intention
Wang Jie was full of thoughts when discussing politics, and he was flipping through "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in his study, trying to find some clever solutions to the current problems. Thinking of the scene when Kangxi secretly summoned him in the morning, his heart felt like a wrung hot towel, tight and hot.
At about midnight, the eunuch Zhang Wanqiang came to the mansion. He said he was conveying an order, but he was not allowed to make any noise. He did not open the middle door to welcome him, nor allowed the incense table to be arranged. He only stood and said: "In accordance with the order, I have come to Yuqing Palace with a letter from Wang Jie to discuss matters.
, admire this!" After saying that, he didn't even eat the tea and left.
With a rabbit in his arms, he hurried to Yuqing Palace, only to see Zhang Wanqiang still greeting him with a smile on his face. As soon as he stepped into the palace door, he was stunned. He saw Kangxi with a sword hanging on his waist, sitting facing west, behind him
There was a man and a woman standing there. The man was the newly promoted sixth-class imperial guard Wei Dongting; the woman was holding Ruyi in her hand and had a solemn face. She was Aunt Sumala. When she looked up, she was even more surprised. The person sitting cross-legged on the imperial couch above was unexpectedly.
It’s the Empress Dowager Borzigit!
Jieshu knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times in fear, and said: "My servant Jieshu is here to see you!" The Empress Dowager waved her hand and said, "His seventh uncle, please get up and speak!" Zhang Wanqiang had already moved a short foot.
After stepping up, Jieshu sat down with his body bent. There were only these five people sitting across from each other in the huge hall, and their voices buzzed as if they were in an urn.
Kangxi broke the silence with one shocking statement: "Uncle Qi, Ao Bai's monopoly on power and chaos in the country has reached an intolerable level. Do you know?"
Jieshu raised his head and saw Kangxi staring here. The maid next to him had a stern look. Wei Dongting was also squinting at him. He lowered his head and replied: "I know."
The Empress Dowager spoke up and said: "When Emperor Taizong was here, he often praised you as the treasure of the clan and always loyal. The former emperor appointed this political king because he was afraid that someone would have bad intentions and no one could stop him. Orphans and widowers
I was bullied. I just heard that Sony has passed away. As soon as he died, Obai lost his royal power even more. Kangxi has been in power for more than a year, and he still refuses to return power. Who could have expected this situation before!"
Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager spoke in a low tone, "The war in the south is still ongoing, Taiwan is still in the hands of Mr. Zheng Chenggong, and there is a Rakshasa Kingdom in the north, who is also bullying us. In our court, Obai is like this, and the king is not a minister.
What will happen to you if you are not a gentleman!" As he spoke, his eyes flashed and he stared at Jieshu.
Kangxi suddenly interjected: "So, I invite you to discuss a major matter. I want to kill Obai and remove his military power!" He stopped abruptly at this point and stopped talking.
Jieshu pondered for a moment, then suddenly knelt down and began to play: "Obai is unruly and rebellious. Everyone in the court knows that he should be severely punished. But now he is in charge of the Ministry of War, leading the bodyguards and ministers, and in charge of the patrol yamen. Besides, most of the ministers are his.
People, if something goes wrong and it harms the emperor, we must not ignore it."
"That's why I came to you!" the Empress Dowager stopped, "It's not that I don't have a way to kill Obai, I just care about the old minister and don't want to do it easily!"
"Your Majesty," Aunt Sumala, who was standing behind Kangxi, suddenly spoke, "you are telling the truth! If this pustule is not squeezed now, it will be even more difficult to deal with in the future! Aozhongtang was a meritorious minister in the past, but now he
A arrogant king who relies on his merits can no longer escape his sins. Everyone knows that he has real power, but he has made enemies on all sides. The ruling and opposition parties are so heartbroken that they all wish they could eat his flesh and sleep on his skin! As long as the plan is right, it is not easy to get rid of him.
It's difficult. Besides, the master doesn't want to make things difficult for him, he just wants to change his position."
Jieshu knew that if a palace maid dared to make such a bold comment on such an occasion, she must have obtained the approval of the Empress Dowager and Kangxi in advance. Hearing that she spoke so eloquently, he admired her very much: "She really deserves her reputation!" He also heard that the Empress Dowager had given her permission.
He said from above: "It's true that you are in a difficult situation. Our ancestors and grandchildren all know it. But this matter must be done, otherwise we will one day be forced to perform a forced palace drama. Who will decide the king?"
This is a very obvious hint: after the matter is completed, Jieshu's throne can be "hereditary and irreplaceable", which is exactly what he dreams of. Thinking of this, his heart suddenly became hot, and he kowtowed and said, "What is the reason for removing Obai?"
, I also pray that the Empress Dowager and the Emperor will make it clear that slaves should use all their strength."
This was tantamount to agreement, and the atmosphere in the palace immediately relaxed a lot. Kangxi signaled to Wei Dongting and handed the Suk Saha folding book to Jieshu. Jieshu silently read the Zhu batch word for word, and suddenly understood, and hurriedly folded the folding book.
, kowtowed and said: "The sage is like a mirror. I already understand it. I will bow down and play it within two or three days!"
While Jie Shu was meditating, a family member came over, presented a greeting card, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Ao Zhongtang and Mr. Banbulshan are here to visit." He looked at the message, handed it to his family, and said: "Original message
Please return it and tell Aozhongtang that I am not feeling well, so I will meet you another day."
Before he could finish his words, he heard someone laughing loudly: "Your Majesty is suffering from a good disease! It must be a symptom of eradicating evil and hegemony, and worrying about the country and the people! Hahaha..." As he said that, Obai opened the curtain and walked in.
Then Banbulshan came forward with a smile. They greeted Jieshu and said, "Greetings to the Seventh Prince! I have some knowledge of medicine and am willing to use the secret recipe of the Golden Chamber to drive away this disease for the prince!" The two of them said:
After saying that, he walked to the case, bowed his head and sat down.
Jie Shu looked at them dumbfounded like a child shocked by thunder. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and said with a mocking smile: "I had a cold in the morning yesterday, so I'm really not feeling well. Now that you two are here, the squad has another
If you are knowledgeable in medicine, please give me a diagnosis."
Banbulshan was really knowledgeable about medicine. He came over, closed his eyes and meditated in a serious way, checked Jie's pulse, stood up and said with a smile: "You're showing off your shame." The seventh uncle's left foot slipped and floated, and he was in a trance with his thoughts.
Sitting in a boat; the left guan stagnates and sinks, the main body is weak, and the diet is poor; the cun is depressed and knotted, the main body is frightened and worried, and the night dreams are dangerous. According to the pulse, there should be these symptoms. It is all because the seventh uncle is busy with state affairs and is too worried.
Because this disease cannot be cured by medicine, it is always advisable to rest, eat indifferently, and practice quietly, and you will be cured naturally." Oboi laughed and said: "This pulse can be seen very clearly. Without indifference, it is impossible to clarify the will.
Nothing without tranquility can reach far, and the ancient sages and sages are no exception. Your Majesty is so wise, how can you not understand this with just a few words?"
Banbul was right to be good at cutting off his pulse. He had all these symptoms. Ever since Ao Bai made a scene in the court and killed Suna Hai and others, he often felt uneasy and uneasy.
He never slept a wink. Now that Bamboulshan reported the illness with a sly eye, coupled with Aobai's double entendre, he couldn't help but feel a sudden jolt in his heart: "Oops, it's windy!" But he could barely say it.
He smiled and said: "According to Mr. Ao, how should we be peaceful and indifferent?"
Ao Bai did not answer immediately. He walked to the table, picked up a tall silver cup, pointed at a jade bottle and asked, "I am thirsty, what kind of wine is here?" Jie Shu laughed and said, "This is Sichuan given by the emperor.
Famous wines and beautiful buildings.”
"Yulouqing? What a good name!" Obai said, pouring a glass for himself, appraising it, taking a sip and smiling, "Master Ben, the wine is so good, why not have a drink too." After finishing the drink, he poured it out and handed it to Bumble.
Shan. Banbulshan raised his head and drank, and said with a smile: "Good wine, but it's a bit too strong." Then he returned the wine glass to Obei with both hands.
"If it's not fierce, how can the Jade Tower fall for this?" Obai played with the silver cup carelessly and said to Jieshu, "You ask how to be indifferent and peaceful? For example, in Suk Saha's case, why don't you and I try it together?
, I will play the title, and the prince will be able to have a few more days of leisure, what do you think?"
Seeing Ao Bai going straight in, Jie Shu knew that all his plans were in vain. He smiled bitterly and said, "Ogong Ao seems to be very confident. I don't know what kind of trial he plans to do?" Ao Bai put the silver cup gently on the desk with a pale expression.
Shen said: "Of course, this can only be decided after asking - Mr. Bamboulshan, we have come in time, it is time to go back, let the prince think about it for himself." After that, he took Bamboulshan with him.
Quit and go out.
Jie Shu sent them out of the front door, and when he came back, he saw that the handle of the tall silver cup on the table, which was as thick as a little finger, had been twisted off, the mouth of the cup was crooked, and the remaining wine spilled all over the table. Jie Shu was surprised at first, and suddenly realized
, I just felt my head buzzing, and I slumped down on the easy chair.
A few months after the examination, Mingzhu was very happy for a while. He paid homage to his room master, Hui Tongyin, and stayed away all day. Unexpectedly, after being introduced to him, he was only awarded the title of "Bowang Tongzhi". He was very disappointed, and Wu Ciyou advised him not to do it.
He took the post and waited for an opportunity in Beijing. Unexpectedly, no one could be found in the capital after repeated campaigns. Wu Ciyou originally wanted to travel by himself, but he was not in good spirits and suffered from typhoid fever for several months. After he recovered, he
He was still very weak. In the past few months, He Guizhu and Mingzhu took turns waiting on him, so the soup, water, and bait were very convenient. He Guizhu used to look down on Mingzhu, but now that he was very considerate to Wu Ciyou, his grudge went away.
After breakfast that day, the sky was gloomy and there was no place to go. Wu Ciyou felt bored, so he called He Guizhu and said with a smile: "Brother Mingzhu has probably gone to find the man named Huang from the Ministry of Internal Affairs again. The front facade
Are you okay? How about asking the guys to set things up, and you and I can play a game?"
He Guizhu said with a smile: "Second Master, I'm very interested, but my chess skills are not very good, so I'm afraid it will spoil your interest." As he said this, he turned around and brought the chessboard in. He grabbed the black stones first and placed them all in Tianyuan.
He placed five sons on the four-pointed star and said: "Spare the five sons, the second master will be merciful." The two of them smiled and sat down.
In the middle of the game, Wu Ciyou had a slight upper hand. He Guizhu's right few stones had been blocked by Wu Ciyou. If he didn't escape, he would be eaten. After thinking hard for a long time, he couldn't think of a countermeasure, so he had to point his head forward. Wu Ciyou said: "
Don't you hear that "Those who catch the chess pieces casually are without any plan?" Don't you want the big chess pieces in the corner?" He Guizhu looked at it and said with a smile: "The second master can't take this corner, so he has to escape these few first.
He's tall." Suddenly someone behind me said: "Gui'er's corner needs to be patched up, otherwise Mr. Wu will be a 'Niu Tou Liu' in there!"
The two of them were focused on playing chess. They had no idea when someone came in. They were startled. When they looked up, it was Wei Dongting standing behind Zhuer wearing an oil coat. Zhuer stood up hurriedly and said: "Master Wei, when?"
Are you here? You two are the ones who are going to meet great talents. Come on, please." Wu Ciyou also smiled and said: "It's raining outside, take off your oil coat and sit here to keep warm."
Wei Dongting waved his hands with a smile, and without taking off his rain gear, he sat next to him and said, "I don't have time to play today. My brother was ordered by the head of the family to discuss something with Mr. Wu." Wu Ciyou was still in love with chess, laughing.
Said: "What is so important?"
Seeing that they were engaged in serious business, He Guizhu pushed up the wooden plank, cupped his hands and said, "I'll get some tea while you two are talking." Wei Dongting said hurriedly, "No need, you might as well listen."
Wei Dongting carefully took out a mulberry paper post from his arms and said, "Look at this!"
Wu Ciyou took it and took a look. The upper line of the regular regular script written by King Zhong read, "I sincerely invite Mr. Wu Ciyou to come and say something to comfort me." The lower line of the fine calligraphy written in respectful regular script read, "I, a private disciple, ask for my forehead to mourn for this time."
There is also a postscript that says, "The rest will be explained by others."
Wu Ciyou was a little confused. Monk Zhanger asked hurriedly: "This is neither a famous assassin nor a greeting invitation. Moreover, Master Suo'etu is an important person in the dynasty. I definitely don't deserve this invitation! Please tell me the reason, dear brother."
Wei Dongting looked at the chessboard and said carefully, "That's what happened. Master Suo'etu has a young brother who is very fond of. He is already fourteen this year and has always wanted to hire a learned man as a teacher." He raised his head.
Looking at Wu Ciyou, he continued: "Sir, he is from a scholarly family. He is famous far and wide. You have long been eager to meet him. But I am afraid that your magnanimity and magnanimity may not be willing to give in. Sony Lao Zhongtang said again and again before his death, he must invite experts to teach dragons.
Son, Master Suo has not disobeyed his father's orders, and Mo Liao is in mourning, so he sent his brothers to come and ask for his invitation." After saying this, he bowed again and said, "Dong Ting, please give me some face, sir." His attitude was very sincere.
After hearing this, Wu Ciyou nodded and said with a smile: "In that case, it can be considered a fate, but it's hard for you." Wei Dongting hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "It is indeed a fate, sir, I have met this student before."
Wu Ciyou raised his face and thought for a long time, then shook his head blankly: "Have you seen it before? I rarely make friends with outsiders after coming to Beijing! Oh - I remembered, is it the Long'er you brought last time?
"Wei Dongting raised his palms and smiled, and said: "Yes! It's Long'er. When Long'er saw you, he clamored for Mrs. Tai to send someone to pick you up when he went back. Because the big exam was about to take place at that time, I couldn't invite him personally - I asked Mr.
This is the 'opportunity' I'm talking about."
Wu Ciyou smiled and said: "I like Long'er very much, he has excellent qualifications! It is a great pleasure to raise him with talents, but -" he hesitated and then said, "I received a letter from home a few days ago. My father is old and very old.
I miss me and am very depressed in Beijing. I want to go back to my hometown to see——"
Before Wu Ciyou could finish what he said, Wei Dongting said: "Everything is safe with the old lady. I have a few friends who want to go to your hometown to buy some things. You can ask them to meet the old man first. If the old man is happy, why not come to Beijing for a visit?
!”
When He Guizhu heard this, he said jokingly: "The second master went to the assistant government's house to become a guest. The old master was also happy to hear it. Don't be like Master Ming, who is too busy to leave the house, let alone talk to us.
Let's play chess and Shuanglu together!" Wei Dongting said with a smile: "It's not that he looks down on you. I saw him at Wu Xueshi's house the day before yesterday, and he kept complaining that he had too many social activities and had no time to go back to the store. I was afraid that my husband and Boss He would want to
I blame him for being distant!" At this point, he stood up and asked: "Sir, the car is ready outside. If you don't see it abandoned, let's go, okay?"
Wu Ciyou also stood up and said with a smile: "Since Lord Mengsuo'etu loves you so wrongly, I can't be more respectful than obeying your orders, please!" Wei Dongting waved his hand and said: "Please first, from now on, brother is just Long Er's companion.
, you are my teacher, I cannot be on an equal footing with you." Seeing what Wu Ciyou said, he stopped and said: "In other words, rather than be like this, I would rather be a brother of Long'er and be exempted from the title of teacher and student.
I really don’t like these red tapes, they arrest people to death, and they call them the teachings of saints!”
Wei Dongting was worried about Kangxi's apprenticeship ceremony and worried that he would not be able to handle it. Unexpectedly, Wu Ciyou was so suave and cheerful, so he was a little overjoyed, so he said again: "Master Suo'etu may not be willing to accept it!" Wu Ciyou said nonchalantly:
"Having half a teacher and half a friend is best. I'll go and talk to Lord Suo'etu myself."
Suo'etu was waiting uneasily beside a sumptuous banquet. He was also worried that Wei Dongting would not be able to handle the affairs well and would not be able to invite the gentleman. He was also worried that the etiquette would not be arranged when the gentleman arrived. He was in a state of uneasiness.
He had always had doubts about the job that the Empress Dowager had given him. Since ancient times, emperors had lived in the ninth level and ruled from the top down. Where had you ever heard of the emperor secretly inviting a scholar in white to be his teacher? But the Empress Dowager seemed to be very
Determined. She said: "The emperor is no longer big or small, so he can't delay like this. The kind of help Ao Bai invited will never be used. Although Aunt Sumala is good, her reading skills are limited after all, and she is a girl.
, I can't get on the stage. This is a last resort!" - What would happen if this matter got out of the bag and Obei knew about it? The white dragon fish suit, a house that has always submitted to its subordinates, what if there is something wrong?
If there are two mistakes, what is the crime? How can we explain this matter to future generations? There is a difficult matter in front of us. As a teacher and a student, we have to perform the ceremony of becoming a disciple. How can the emperor be weak in the knees?
Where are you coming? - If this thing is done, you may not be able to be famous for future generations, but if you get a good name, you may be ruined! Suo'etu thought about things, his face turned red and white, and he sat
Kangxi, who was next to him, had already guessed what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Since we are co-starring in this play, we must sing more realistically. If you sing badly, I will not follow you. You are the elder brother, and I am the brother. Although I am
Jun, he is a teacher! The dignity of a teacher, don’t you know that I don’t even know this?” Suo’etu hurriedly bowed and replied: “Yes.”
Kangxi asked again: "Where is the study?"
"It's located in the garden at the back. It's very secluded. It was originally given to the servant's father by Lord Shunzhi." Suo'etu replied hurriedly and bowed again.
Kangxi saw that he could not change his pattern, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "How can any brother in the world call his brother 'slave'? I am now 'Long'er', don't be so embarrassed, like worshiping Buddha, what do you look like?"
What?" Suo'etu also laughed and said: "The protagonist hasn't arrived yet, so I don't dare to sing first."
The monarch and his ministers were talking, and the man at the door came in and said: "Master, sir, Mr. Wei is here with Mr. Wu." Kangxi stood up in a hurry and said with a smile, "I will greet you!" Suo'etu held a handful of sweat tight
Follow behind.
Wei Dongting and Wu Ciyou walked in hand in hand. As soon as they entered the second door, they saw Suo'etu and Long'er coming out with smiles on their faces. Wei Dongting quietly slowed down and stood behind Wu Ciyou. Wu Ciyou hurriedly took a step forward and bowed to the ground.
, said in his mouth: "How lucky I am to be born late in life and be favored by Mr. Suo! Hearing your name for a long time is like a refreshing breeze washing my ears. It is really comforting to see you today!"
Suo Etu saw that Wu Ciyou had a clear demeanor, a handsome posture, and was not tacky at all. He hurriedly stepped forward and took Wu Ciyou's hand and said: "Before the student entered the pass from Conglong, he had admired Mr. Xian for a long time. Fortunately, Wei Junmen introduced him, and I can meet him today.
What a blessing for three lifetimes!" After saying that, he took one of Kangxi's hands and said with a smile: "This is my younger brother Long'er. Long'er, please see the teacher soon!" When the matter came to an end, Suo'etu felt relaxed.
, suddenly thought strangely, he wanted to see how Kangxi condescended to deal with this situation.
Kangxi seemed to be a different person at this time, looking childish and innocent. He winked mischievously and smiled at Suo'etu: "Brother, we have known each other for a long time, Mr. Wu." Suo'etu said falsely: "How can you do this?
There are no rules! Sir, you are now your teacher, so you must be more respectful and not polite!" Kangxi said "yes" and was about to bow down, but Wu Ciyou supported him and said: "Brother Wei Xian and I
We have an appointment before. My brother and I only treat each other as brothers, and we don’t dare to honor you with such great gifts. Why don’t you listen to the Queen Sun Master’s "Er You Song"? "I used to be your neighbor, but now I am your minister. I will serve you a glass of wine and order you to do so."
Longevity!"
As soon as these words came out, Kangxi and Wei Dongting were startled at the same time. When they came back to their senses, they realized how appropriate they were and couldn't help but laugh knowingly. Wei Dongting was surprised in his heart: "He is really the destined emperor, and some strange combination of circumstances sent Mr. Wu to think of him."
Here’s this poem!” He laughed and let Wu Ciyou into the back room.
Everyone sat down to discuss their seats, and Kangxi took the last seat. Since he ascended the throne, he had never discussed his seat with anyone except the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager. It was like this today, which made life really interesting. When Wu Ciyou saw Wei Dongting, he stood respectfully and stood in front of the dragon.
Behind Er, he hurriedly gave way: "Brother Wei Xian, why don't you sit down?" Suo'etu smiled and was about to answer, but Long'er said: "Since Mr. Wu asked you to sit down, just sit down. We are all friends, if we do this every day
Wouldn't it be unfair to be polite?" Wei Dongting had no choice but to say: "I have the right to sit down today, but I won't make an example next time."
In fact, Wei Dongting, as the emperor's personal bodyguard, had a very different rank. When he got along with Suo'etu on weekdays, he only distinguished between upper and lower seats, and there was no "establishment of rules." It was only because of the obstruction of Kangxi that he really could not live on an equal footing for a long time, so he only pretended to be "companion reading".
.That Wu Ciyou was a scholar in civilian clothes. How could he understand these mysteries? He thought that this should be the case.
After a few words of greetings, Wu Ciyou returned to the subject and said: "My brother is open-minded and transcendent, with a refreshing spirit and no sense of stinginess. He is a talented person and will surely rise to the top. Why bother to teach me so clumsily?"
." Suo'etu said: "My brother has his own ancestral reputation and has no intention of becoming an official. The wife's intention is just to let him read scriptures and history with his husband, and then learn some poems, lyrics and music to cultivate his temperament. Eight-legged essays and so on.
All of them can be dispensed with."
Wu Ciyou couldn't help being surprised when he heard that there was someone who hired a teacher who clearly stated that he did not want to learn the Eight-part Pattern Art. He hurriedly said: "Zu Yin is one thing, and establishing one's own fame is another. You must not be careful," Kangxi said.
"I don't like stereotyped writing. An article has only a few twists and turns. It can be said for hundreds of years and is of no use at all. What's more, it's said to be 'making speeches on behalf of sages'!" Wu Ciyou hesitated and replied: "
It's not true what Brother Shi said, but the emperor does not agree with the people's hearts. Although these eight parts are useless in the world, they are of great use to the emperor. So although they are useless, they cannot be abolished." After hearing these words, Kangxi was busy
Asked: "Why?" Wu Ciyou took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Which generation of wise emperors does not want to win over people from all over the world?"
It's really unheard of! A casual sentence caused a great shock in Kangxi's heart. His face suddenly changed color, and he thought to himself: "Aunt Sumala is right. This master can only ask for help. Go to the master in the study."
I definitely don't dare to talk about books like this." Although Suo'etu was secretly surprised, he didn't show it at all on his face, so he smiled and said: "Let's have a drink, win over each other, or not, that is the emperor's business -" Kangxi also laughed
Said: "Yes, we just don't want to learn this bad stereotype!"
While they were talking, a girl brought tea to her. After she had finished serving it one by one, she was about to turn around and leave, but Suo'etu stopped her: "Wan Niang, Mrs. Tai has something to say. From today on, you will also accompany Long Er to study. Come quickly."
I’ve met Mr. Wu.”
Aunt Su Ma, who changed her name to Wan Niang, bowed her head and said "yes", walked over generously and was deeply blessed. She straightened up and looked at Wu Ciyou. Wu Ciyou couldn't stand her intense gaze, so he turned to greet Wei Dongting.
While eating wine, Wan Niang smiled sweetly and did not step back. Instead, she took a step forward and said, "I have long heard from our great master and master that Mr. Wu is very talented and famous all over the country. How many times have I heard this?"
There is a pair, and I would like to ask sir how to deal with it."
Wu Ciyou never expected that she would say such a thing. He couldn't help but be stunned. He put the chopsticks on the table and said with a smile: "I don't dare to accept the compliment, please tell me."
"Meng Lang," Wan Niang said with a smile, "First of all, five ancient women, please tell me the names of the men." Seeing Wu Ciyou smiling and nodding, Wan Niang blurted out: "Xiao Qing!"
"Taibai." Wu Ciyou answered without thinking.
"Don't worry!"
"No blame."
"Piao Mu!"
"Guanfu."
"Wenjun!"
"Wu Zi."
"Xi Shi!"
"Okay! - Dongye!"
Before everyone could think about it, Wu Ciyou had already spoken out, and everyone was impressed by his quick thinking. While everyone was in a daze, Wan Niang changed her tone and said again: "Wang Gua!"
Wu Ciyou couldn't help but was startled and quickly asked: "Which woman is this?" Wan Niang said with a smile: "The five women are finished, now let's talk about Wang Gua, what is good for her?"
"This is difficult." Wu Ciyou lowered his head and thought for a moment, then hesitantly said, "Yes, there are, but I'm afraid it's disrespectful - how about using 'Hou Ji'?" Everyone clapped and cheered. As soon as the laughter fell, Wan Niang suddenly chanted loudly.
Said: "The water is green, the water is green and clear, the rivers are flowing on the ground, the water is clear and clear, the water is green and clear."
All the people in the seat were stumped by this pairing, and they all frowned and thought hard about the second couplet. Wu Ciyou was secretly surprised and said in his heart: "It's amazing!" He stood up, walked two steps outside the table, and opened his mouth several times.
He stopped talking. At this time, the sun's shadow was slanting in the west, the green shade in front of the hall was mottled, and it was so quiet that there was no sound.
After a long time, he raised his brows, raised his head and said loudly: "The sun and the moon are bright, the sun and the moon are bright, the sun and the moon are bright, the sun and the moon are bright, the sun and the moon are bright. - How?"
Everyone exclaimed that it was wonderful. The rare word "Qing" was the name of the country, and the second line was "Ming", the name of the country. Not only did it fit the title of the article, but "Qingming" also implied the intention of praising the saint.
"Sir, you are so talented!" Wan Niang said with a smile, "May I ask why Mencius's talents are not tolerated by other countries?" When everyone saw her asking questions, they all lowered their faces and held their breaths to listen.
Wu Ciyou said with a smile: "Mencius lived in the chaotic and chaotic Warring States period. The kings of the countries were eager to take advantage but did not know justice. Therefore, Master's ambition to be a great duke could not be extended. This is the time, destiny, luck, and number!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wan Niang smiled again and said, "I heard people say that 'Tong Jinshi' is a widower?"
Wu Ciyou laughed loudly and said: "What kind of widower pairing is this! Throughout the ages, I have only heard of the widower pairing being 'Yansuo Pondliu' [Note 1] - 'Tongjinshi' can be 'like a lady'!" Suddenly he remembered
Mingzhu was also a fellow Jinshi, so she felt that he was being mean, so she hid her words and did not say anything further.
Aunt Sumala refused to give up, and said again: "Sir, he is very knowledgeable and well-deserved! May I ask which quote from the ancient sages do you like best?"
Wu Ciyou thought to himself that if he didn't make a little joke, he was afraid that she would still be entangled with him, so he laughed and said, "It's hard to raise a girl with a villain."
This sentence made the whole room burst into laughter. Suo'etu couldn't control his puff of cigarette and choked his lungs, coughing loudly and laughing. Kangxi leaned over and covered his stomach and almost laughed out loud. Wei Dongting squatted on the ground with his hands on the back of the chair and hunched over, laughing.
Aunt Sumala blushed, said "I admire you", turned around and retreated. Wu Ciyou was sweating all over because of her examination.
Suo'etu was a little reserved at first, but he was overwhelmed by the sudden comedy and felt that his mind was much more open. He hurriedly smiled at Wu Ciyou and said: "This maid is somewhat knowledgeable in writing, and the lady loves her very much. She spoils her so much that she doesn't have any rules, which makes the gentleman laugh.
Already."
