Chapter 191: Also to Qingzhou

Another voice said: "We people are soft-spoken, these times are only used for recreation, speaking of which we can't do anything, the court really wants to fight, what can we do!" ”

"You're not doing that!" The previous voice said, "When we do our part, we should serve the country, and we should also care about the situation." For example www.biquge.info this time the imperial court wants to increase taxes in the south of the Yangtze River, and it also mobilizes wealthy businessmen to raise donations, which is said to be to prepare more military salaries, these things are still closely related to us, how can they only be used as pastime. ”

Yu Qingyuan agreed: "Brother Li is right. So did you go well with your tax collection this time? ”

The surnamed Li sneered: "Just increasing taxes has made these businessmen complain, and they have to mobilize them to donate part of their family wealth, isn't this killing them?" ”

Yu Qingyuan dared to speak fairly: "It's not that the businessmen here in Jiangnan are inconsiderate of the imperial court, it's really that in the imperial court over the years, they have bought and sold officials, resold and quoted evidence, and the local officials have been desperately oppressing the people, and they are also afraid of being looted by the officials in the past!" ”

There was silence among the people inside. The surnamed Li said, "Maybe." However, you have a rich merchant here, named Mei Yuanshan, he is generous and heroic, as soon as he heard that the imperial court was preparing military salaries to fight for Dayan, he immediately agreed to donate 100,000 taels of silver. This kind of pride really impresses him. ”

Yu Qingyuan was full of praise for the Mei family: "Mei Yuanshan was originally a generous and righteous person, I have been dealing with their family for several years, and I admire his character very much. Even his son's character is very similar to him, and he is good-looking, rich and handsome. The family is very rich, but there is no squeamishness, it is really a very rare good son. ”

Another voice laughed: "I have long heard that Yuji has a stunning sister to be in the boudoir, since you look up to the son of the Mei family so much, why don't you ask someone to say that you are together, and it is good to be a family member!" ”

"That's what I mean!" Yu Qingyuan didn't twist it either, and generously admitted it.

Jiang Xuan moved: Yu Qingyuan thinks so highly of the Mei family, and he has such a high opinion of Mei Zixuan, it seems that even if he knows that Yu Meiqing followed Mei Zixuan to the sea, he should not really trouble the Mei family.

The voices of several people inside coaxed, saying something to bless the success of the marriage between the two families, and the surnamed Li said: "Anyway, the will of this fundraising should have been called by the imperial envoy who came to Jiangnan from Beijing not long ago, but I haven't seen the imperial envoy appear for half a month." Tamashi, do you know what's going on? ”

Yu Qingyuan "shh ”

Yu Qingyuan then lowered his voice and said: "I went to look for it a few times and didn't see the imperial envoy surnamed Fan, someone heard an old servant in their mansion inadvertently say that it seems that he went to Qingzhou secretly. ”

"What are you doing in Qingzhou at this time?" "That is, this is not at war with Dayan, so there is no need to deal with Qingfeng Village?"

"Can't・・・・・・"

Everyone couldn't guess what it meant, and Jiang Li couldn't help but be a little worried when he thought of Fan Sicheng's poison.

As soon as she looked up, Mei Yingxue came with two girls, and Jiang Li also paid for tea and walked out of the shop.

After Mei Zixuan left, Mrs. Mei's attitude towards Jiang Li was much colder. Jiang Li also had the intention of going, so he secretly prepared to go to Qingzhou.

However, Mei Yuanshan's attitude towards his niece was the same as before, and he sent people from time to time to ask Jiang Li if he needed help. Mei Yingxue came to sit with her for a long time from time to time, listening to her tone, Jiang Li heard that his uncle was asking someone to go around to help him find a husband, Jiang Li listened, and felt that the Mei family couldn't stay for a long time.

Fortunately, the production of the workshop was gradually on the right track, and Jiang Li cleaned up a little and resigned to his uncle. Mei Yuanshan refused in every way, couldn't stand Jiang Li and insisted on leaving, and said that he was just going to Qingzhou to do business, and he might come back when he would, so Mei Yuanshan reluctantly let him go.

From Jiangnan to Qingzhou, the Mei family specially arranged a boat to send them off.

The boat goes to Qingzhou, the river is wide and narrow, and there are reefs from time to time, fortunately, the wind and water are smooth, only to see the sound of apes on both sides of the strait, and the boat has been outside the thousand mountains.

Jiang Li stood at the bow of the boat, thinking that there were still green pothos and golden chrysanthemums when he went south, and after many months, I don't know if the two of them were still used to living in Qingzhou, and Jiang Ju and someone, Jiang Li thought about it, with a slight smile on his face.

In a mansion somewhere in Qingzhou City, the half of Gu Jin that was restored by Jiang Li was spread out on the table, Jiang Gan frowned, his expression was extremely nervous, and his eyes approached Gu Jin without blinking. He carefully touched it bit by bit, and he didn't look up for a long time.

Yun Tong and Xiao Yu sat in the room, both of whom looked at Jiang Gan with bated breath. After a while, Yun Tong couldn't help but ask: "Owner of the village, you look at it for a long time, is this little half of the brocade broken for that girl?" ”

Seeing that Jiang Gan was silent, Yun Tong acquiesced to him. So he sighed and said: "This is our Nan Chen's national treasure, and if you destroy a section, you won't be able to pick up the remaining landscape paintings." ”

Yun Tong glanced at Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu's face was calm. Yun Tong's words of complaint had no exit.

After another half an hour, Jiang Gan finally raised his head and exhaled: "I think that when the "Splendid Rivers and Mountains" was still in the hands of the first emperor, I had seen it. It was when I was still young, and the master had not yet officially accepted me as an apprentice, and the task he gave me at that time was to let me take a closer look at the "Splendid Rivers and Mountains", and after reading it, he asked me to try to write down the patterns in the painting, but I only remembered one paragraph, that is, the pattern of this half of the brocade given to Jiang Li. I took a closer look just now, and Jiang Li is exactly the same! ”

The whole picture of "Splendid Rivers and Mountains" is five feet long, and Jiang Gan's unforgettable memory can only remember a small half, and the remaining large section can only be remembered.

Although the remnant brocade was in Jiang Gan's hands, he did not dare to restore it rashly. Because he only remembers a rough pattern for most of the rest of the section, and is not sure that it will be restored exactly as before, so he uses this half of the passage he knows by heart to test others.

If the section he was familiar with was restored, then he could safely leave the remaining half to that person to complete.

"The transformation of the warp and weft threads on the brocade and the color of the flowers can be restored, which requires a high degree of talent and understanding. This is something that even I can't do, Jiang Li did it, and she passed the test. Jiang Gan said excitedly.

How important "Splendid Rivers and Mountains" is to Nan Chen, the three people in the house know it.

Jiang Gan now said that Jiang Li had passed the test, and the three people in the room were relieved.
