22. Sunset fireworks separate reed flowers
Lakeside dwelling is the industry of the right prime minister of the Dawn Kingdom today.
Things, beauty.
Price, not cheap.
Holding a poetry meeting was also held in the right prime minister's own industry, Xiao Yi said in a beautiful name, "Naturally, in order to save some funds, doesn't Your Majesty still want to conquer the Yu Kingdom?" ”
But in fact, on that day, all the scholars who came here with great interest felt that they had been trapped.
These scholars study hard, and what lessons Guozijian takes, what do they have to learn along. I wanted to use this poetry meeting to brush my face in front of the emperor, but I didn't expect it......
"The entrance fee is a piece of silver, and I will go to the first floor to wait first after receiving the post, and sit according to the number."
…… Why didn't anyone sue them for money?
Many of them didn't have any money with them!
Xiao Yi really only made money and didn't lose money.
In addition to the money to be paid to participate in the poetry meeting, all the people present are literati and scholars, and it is always not good to look at nothing. So I asked for a pot of tea here and a plate of pastries there, and soon the business of the lakeside house was as hot as ever.
The method of paying money screened many people who wanted empty gloves white wolves or joined in the fun, so the next step was to screen the rich children who were rich but not literate.
The first floor filled up quickly, after all, for most people, a silver tael was not much.
The tables on the first floor have long been replaced with round tables, and the numbers are randomly assigned, so the people who sit at each table are also randomly assigned. Each table is joined by couplets, and there are 10 people sitting at a round table, and only the best person with the 2 couplets is chosen. A table was vacated, and soon another person from the door was arranged to enter.
Couplet to the good person, go up to the 2nd floor. On the second floor, instead of a round table, there is a four-person table. Four people first draw lots to decide who to start, start clockwise, two lines of poetry per person, a total of eight sentences, and then the teachers of Guozijian choose the most literary sentence.
Guan Chongshui and Chu Tan were on the third floor, but these scholars still thought that they were behind a screen on the second floor, so they all worked very hard to compose poems. There are those who praise the country's politics and Qingming, those who praise the good, and those who praise the scenery of the capital, until one person-
This man was dressed in white, with delicate eyebrows and noble manners. All the scholars looked at this person and praised in their hearts, "their eyebrows are picturesque", and then, their eyes moved down, and they were disappointed to find that this person was of the same gender as them.
This man is connected with a tail couplet. When the first three people praised Shuguo, this person mentioned the suffering of the people.
A scholar opened his mouth and said, "Zheng Gongzi doesn't know, last year's peasant harvest was gratifying, and it was not as bitter as in your poem, thanks to the new policy of the new emperor and the prime minister!" ”
Xiao Yi watched the excitement from the side, thinking that this person is really not too much to praise, even he praised it, and he didn't do anything.
The beautiful scholar shook his head, "You only see the peasants of Shu Kingdom, but have you ever seen Yu Kingdom and Li Kingdom?" Have you ever had a heart for the common good? ”
The scholar stopped talking.
The lakeside building is unique, with the first floor taking up the largest floor and then moving upwards to become smaller, while the upper floors allow people to see the dynamics below through the windows. Guan Chongshui was attracted by the scholar and looked over, so Chu Tan also looked over.
Chu Tan quickly retracted his gaze and put a pastry on Guan Chongshui's plate. Guan Chongshui's attention was also attracted back and he stopped looking.
Sun Lie was also one of the judges of this poetry meeting, and after hearing these words, he was quite emotional, gave the surname Zheng Shusheng a full score, and asked, "What is your name?" ”
"The junior surname is Zheng Mingtao."
In the end, a total of ten people were selected, and each of these people composed poems, and then they were judged.
Zheng Tao first.
Guan Chongshui looked down again, Chu Tan was a little dissatisfied, and inadvertently glanced at Zheng Tao.
Zheng Tao's peach blossom eyes were slightly raised, his eyes were full of smiles, and the moment he saw Chu Yan, he bowed his head a little shyly.
After that, Xiao Yi took Zheng Tao upstairs and saw Chu Tan and Guan Chongshui.
As soon as Zheng Tao came up, he was very restrained, raised his eyes slightly, and quickly lowered his head.
Chu Tan casually rewarded him with some gold and let him go down, but who knew that after a while, Sun Lie came up.
"See Your Majesty", Sun Lie saluted, and then said straight to the point, "Zheng Tao is a talent, why don't you let him do his best for my Dashu?" ”
Chu Tan said, "Think about it first. ”
"There is no delay in this matter. Since it is a talent, it is necessary to recruit it early! ”
Guan Chongshui actually didn't understand in his heart, why as long as a person has a common heart, it means that he is a talent, after all, high morality does not mean strong ability, but he still didn't speak.
Every group skill consumes energy, and he consumed too much energy last time, and now it is not enough to obtain character information. But he always felt that Zheng Tao was a little strange in his heart, although he couldn't tell what was strange.
Chu Tan saw that Sun Lie was very resolute, and replied casually, "Go to the Ministry of Officials for a while, and make him an official." ”
"Thank you!"
When Chu Tan went back, he went to the Ministry of Officials, but he just mentioned Zheng Tao and asked the officials of the Ministry to seal anything at will. But the official department had received Sun Lie's kindness before, and Sun Lie had just mentioned Zheng Tao to him, and he thought that Sun Lie and Chu Tan both admired Zheng Tao very much, so he directly promoted Zheng Tao to a central official.
On the second day, as soon as Guan Chongshui went to court, he felt that Youdao's vision was very dazzling, like a needle prick, but there was no way to find it.
After getting off the court, Guan Chongshui walked on the street, and the street in front of him couldn't pass for some reason, so he took the path that he didn't usually walk. The path is a little narrow at first, but after walking through the narrow place, you will realize that there is actually a hole inside.
Taverns, inns, green/floors, gambling houses, everywhere.
In front of a green/building, a handsome boy was about to walk in, but was stopped by the old bustard.
"Hey, I can give money, why don't you let people in!" The boy angrily accused.
"Oh, guest officer. We only let men in here, you are a woman......"
"It was discovered!" This son, no, this woman is crazy, "My man is inside, let me in!" ”
"It turned out to be a troublemaker!" The old / bustard waved his fan. Behind her, several big men chased the woman away.
The woman reluctantly asked, "How did you find out that the old lady is a woman?" ”
"Look~Breast~Who~"
Xu was aware of Guan Chongshui's gaze, and the old/bustard glanced at Guan Chongshui up and down a few times, and said with a smile, "Guest officer, please inside~"
Guan Chongshui Muran turned his head.
This alley is full of scenes that Guan Chongshui has never seen before.
The three religions and nine streams are here, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling. This seems to be a world specially set up for little people, and Guan Chongshui has an indescribable sense of disobedience when he walks here.
On the side of the street, a scrawny child sat on the ground, looking at Guan Chongshui.
No begging, no kowtowing, no please, just looking at it like that, but it moves people more than the former.
Guan Chongshui asked the guards behind him to take out the money bag.
God's perspective told him, and many eyes were on him.
Guan Chongshui squatted down slightly and took the child's hand.
The child's hands were dirty and never seemed to be washed.
The road ahead was narrow again, and there weren't that many people anymore.
Guan Chongshui handed the money bag to the child.
The child looked at him in disbelief and took it slowly, "What do you want me to do?" ”
"Give to the poor."
A child holding a money bag.
He thought to himself that this person was wearing an official uniform, he should be a big official, so he wouldn't be so stupid. But he nodded anyway.
After Guan Chongshui left, he hid the money bag.
He was originally a disaster victim who fled to the capital, but after coming to the capital, their family lived in the alley just now, but who knew that his parents suddenly fell ill and died, leaving him and his sister behind.
He was holding the money and felt like he was on a heavy mission.
If you swallow the money yourself, that person probably won't know. But......
His heart had never beaten so fast.
Guan Chongshui didn't know that he had let a child go through a moral test, he just felt that since he was the left prime minister of Shuguo, he should be responsible for the people of Shuguo.
The people of Akeno were short of money, so he gave them money. The reason why he chose a boy is because it is not easy to cause a commotion, and second, because he thinks that children are not greedy for money compared to adults.
After walking out of here, Guan Chongshui couldn't help but look back.
It turns out that there is still such a place in the prosperous capital.
He thought of Zheng Tao's people's livelihood and hardships again.
He had thought that he and the host had done a good job. Who knows, there are still many things that need to be changed in this world.
The world is not a word, not a corner of prosperity, not the capital within reach, it is big.
After returning to the residence, Guan Chongshui sat on a chair and looked at so many official documents, saying that he was very tired.
Sure enough, it's better that you haven't morphed.
Chu Tan probably couldn't imagine that he let Guan Chongshui be the prime minister in order to give him supreme power and glory, and secondly, to let him let go of his hands and do things boldly, who knew that Guan Chongshui would be so tired.
But after these days, Guan Chongshui is also used to the busy schedule now.
Just as Guan Chongshui was about to open the official document, he suddenly found that the inkstone in the corner of the case had moved one centimeter to the right compared to when he went out in the morning.
The system's memory is good, so Guan Chongshui can remember the location of everything he has placed with his own hands. And if she wants to go into the study to clean and tidy up, she will also say hello in advance. According to Xue Dill's temperament, she will not enter the study without saying a word.
Guan Chongshui stood up, and after looking at it from God's perspective, he found that many other things also had small traces of being moved.
Who is it? And why did you come to search his room? Has he ever seen this person?
If this person has appeared, and the energy of Guan Chongshui is sufficient, the system can display the person's information. But Guan Chongshui's energy is a little insufficient now, unless Chu Tan is allowed to fulfill his wish and conquer the Yu Kingdom.
However, the Ministry of Finance was not allowed to fight again for a while, although Chu Tan had tried his best to save money......
Guan Chongshui originally wanted to call Xue Di in and ask, but he thought that this person would definitely not let others see him lightly, so it was useless to ask Xue Dill .
Guan Chongshui wanted to remind Chu Tan to be more careful recently, but he thought that the palace was much safer than his house, and it would not be so easy for people to sneak in.
Palace......
Guan Chongshui didn't know what he thought, and leaned back in his chair a little lonely.
