36. Bamboo basket fetching water
Shen You's face was a little blue and white, which made Gu Chengshan's official position and his aunt embarrassed......
Thinking of Gu Zhun's style towards Qiu Yushan just now, I couldn't help but admire it - although Gu Zhun is usually unbeatable, he is very popular, and he has never leaked anything in his work, and even if he "runs away from home", he can always pay attention to the movements of the capital.
Although the Qiu family has been greatly stripped of face at the moment, I am afraid that my aunt will not only not complain, but will also praise it greatly.
The probe put Gu Zhun's arm and shook it vigorously:
"Sure enough, Ah Zhun knows me best, if it weren't for Ah Zhun, it would be annoying to the mother if I didn't say it well......"
The so-called extraordinary times do extraordinary things, such a sensitive period, naturally can't be too careful-
I had heard that the emperor's control over the government was strong, far from being comparable to the previous generations of emperors, Shen You only went in and out of his left ear, but now he really realized what it means to be unpredictable from Gu Chengshan's matter.
"You and my brother, why did Ayou say such things to me?" Gu Zhun smiled brightly, compared to the domineering attitude when facing Qiu Yushan before, it made people feel like a spring breeze, "Tsk, this Xunfangyuan is worthy of being loved by the princess of the previous dynasty, it is really like in a painting." ”
Although the name of Xunfang Garden is Yuan, it is built around a hill, according to the situation, and there is artificially attracted flowing water, gathering into a small lake, white cobblestone path, heavy lakes stacked on top of each other, strange stones exquisite, outside the dance pavilion song platform, all kinds of flowers are blooming one after another, and there are green hooves and silk wrapped on the tree, it is really beautiful like a fairyland.
"Hey, what's going to be done there? Is the water flowing? Gu Zhun suddenly stood on his feet and looked at it with interest-
Not far ahead, there is a path of winding water, winding down the mountain, and the bamboo chant is thin, and you can see beautiful futons scattered like stars.
Shen You glanced at it and smiled slightly: "Yes, although it also follows the old rules of the previous dynasty, it does not lose its elegance, and it is the highlight of the opening day of Xunfang Garden." ”
This is also the old custom left by the princess of the previous dynasty, and on the first day of the opening of Xunfang Garden, some literati and scholars were invited to compose poems and lyrics to help the fun.
Although it is a fun move, it has a good reputation because of the three champions and three Xie Yuan among the previous participants, especially in this Anzhou capital, how many scholars and literati are proud to participate in this grand event?
"Three champions, and, three solutions?" Gu Zhun stared into the distance, as if he was in deep thought.
"Don't believe it." Shen You said with a smile, "Don't look at Anzhou, the place is small, but it is the most literary place, don't hide it from Ah Zhun and say, aren't two of the three champions from our Dazheng Dynasty?" There are also those three Xie Yuan, which are also famous. By the way, one of them, Xie Yuan, also has the same surname as Ah Zhun. It seems to be called,"
Seeing Shen You groaning, Shen Jin, who was following behind, hurriedly joked:
"It's called Gu Yun, hey, he was born handsome, he is the first beautiful man on the ground in Anzhou, but it's a pity, but he is a bold and reckless person who does not cultivate his personal morality, and he is actually involved in a major fraud case...... I heard that I committed suicide in the end......"
The fraud case made a big fuss, and even the Yang family's big house gradually declined because of this incident.
Gu Zhun's face was a little pale.
Shen Youdeng realized that he was afraid that he had lost his words a little, how could he compare a down-and-out literati who died in frustration with Gu Zhun, the proud son of the sky? glared at Shen Jin at the moment: "Come out and have fun, what do you do when you talk about those frustrating things." ”
looked at Gu Zhun who was lacking in interest again:
"Do you want to join in the fun?"
Gu Zhun shook his head: "I'm impatient to read, it's not my uncle who is holding me back, where is I impatient to read the four books and five classics of Lao Shizi?" I finally ran out to relax, and I had to write poems and lyrics, which was really stuffy. ”
He pointed to the second futon at the end of the curved water: "That futon is beautiful, and it looks very different." ”
Although it is the size of other futons, it is surrounded by fragrant osmanthus branches, and gold threads are embellished on them.
"Ah Zhun really has a good eye." Shen You slapped his palms and smiled, "That is the Toad Palace!" To say that among these futons, it is not the most famous? The so-called celebrities gathered, but nine out of ten were afraid that it was for it - I don't know how it was so coincidental, whether it was the three champions or the three Xie Yuan, they were all fortunate to participate in this Qujiang event, and what was even more amazing was that they were all sitting in the same place at that time. ”
Therefore, the location of the futon is privately regarded as a miracle by many scholars, and countless people think day and night that it is good to sit there and have some literary atmosphere on their bodies.
"Listening to what you said, it's a little interesting," Gu Zhun said with a smile, "It's just that people like you and me, the imperial examination or something is secondary, I still don't want to take advantage of others, just look at some excitement like this, but I don't know if there will be a talented and respected talent who will sit in such a lucky place today." ”
"Naturally, he is the proud protégé of the head of Minghu Academy." Shen You smiled and nodded, "If you want to say that this person is the candidate today-"
I was about to say "I know it myself", but I paused in the middle of the sentence -
But anyone who can be the head of Minghu Academy is a Confucian who is full of songs, and naturally he is also a well-deserved organizer of such an elegant event. It is the position where the river is sitting, and it is also given by the mountain chief.
If nothing else, the ten ** who can sit in such a lucky position today will be Shen Ting-
Although in Gu Chengshan's matter, Shen Ting's plan did not work completely, but it also made Shen You look at him with admiration, not to mention his old Taishan's thoughts-
Whether it is the champion who has been out before, or Xie Yuan, it is all taught by the big house, as for Yang Zeping, who is currently in charge of the academy, he has been mediocre since he came to Ren, and Shen Ting is very likely to be the one who can bring him glory-
If you can also cultivate a champion with your own hands, see who else dares to chew their tongues behind their backs?
What's more, because Shen Ting is Yang Zefang's proud protégé, he can make him turn his head, for his father-in-law, it is really a very proud thing, and everyone in the world who can't wait to publicize it is known, and therefore, in such an important position today, his father-in-law is very likely to make Shen Ting sit.
In the past, it was just that, but today, there are not a few nobles in the capital, if there are really any bad words to reach the emperor's ears, it will be bad.
If he hadn't heard Gu Zhun's words before, for various reasons, Shen You would have been happy to see it, but now he was shocked - when Yang Xihe and Shen's mother had a conflict before, he could hear it clearly-
If you want to talk about Shen Ting's situation, it sounds good and calls another Master, but the ugly words are undoubtedly ungrateful and betrayal of the master. I only thought about how to hit the big house before, and taught the ugly girl who didn't know the height of the sky, but I forgot that there are two sides to everything.
After all, I look at it now, Shen Ting's betrayal, for Yang Xihe, is not how sad it is, but if such a thing really makes trouble, I am afraid that it will make the mother unhappy-
A few days ago, a disobedient son Gu Chengshan was already in a storm in the city, and his father who had to be tired ate and hung up, plus an unfilial piety Shen Ting, really fell into the hands of those political enemies, God knows what tongue he would chew indiscriminately, the so-called eating a trench and growing a wisdom, Shen You didn't dare to act arbitrarily at the moment.
Suddenly, I thought, fortunately, there is no solution, and now I only tell my father-in-law not to be too public-
Fortunately, this event has not yet begun, and there is still time to remedy.
At that moment, he specially called Shen Jin:
"Where do you go to your father-in-law, and see if there is anything else you need help with?"
As he was talking, he saw a man of forty or forty slowly coming slowly surrounded by several people, and he couldn't help but lose his color - he didn't expect that his father-in-law's face was so big, and even Zhou Mingyi, the priest of the country, could invite him.
Sure enough, Minghu Academy's reputation is extraordinary.
But he breathed a sigh of relief, thanks to the fact that he had already been settled, you must know that this Lord Zhou Mingyi is also a clear stream in the court, and he is the most self-proclaimed. It was really about Shen Ting that came to his ears, and it was really hard to say that there would be any turmoil.
Over there, Yang Zeping had already received a report, and hurriedly greeted him:
"Brother Mingyi, I want to kill my little brother. I haven't seen each other for many years, and my brother's demeanor is better than before. ”
It was the students of Minghu Academy behind him, and their expressions were also very excited - this wine lord didn't just walk out of Minghu Academy in the first place, and he was one of the three Xie Yuan, who was originally a poor boy, but now he is famous all over the world.
The living example is right in front of you, which makes everyone yearn for the location of the Toad Palace's laurel futon-
can really sit in that position, and if you can't say it, you can replicate the legend of this Lord Zhou. Even if there is an occasional stumble, you can get into the eyes of Lord Zhou, and you can also make a good fate, right?
Compared with other people's anxiety, Shen Ting was not only excited, but also undoubtedly more determined-
Yesterday, the teacher had already leaked to himself, and that position must be given to him. He also said that there would be a noble person coming, but he didn't expect that it would be this priest.
As one of the scholars in Anzhou, Shen Ting was not undesirable for that mysterious position, but because of the relationship between the teacher before, he had never stepped into this Xunfangyuan.
At present, not only will I have the opportunity to participate in the grand event, but I will also enter the field of vision of the wine festival in a way that everyone will see, and I am excited and a little sad-
This kind of glory can only be obtained by standing in opposition to Heho......
was in a trance, but saw Yang Zefang suddenly point to the Futon of the Toad Palace, and called another person's name.
Shen Ting was stunned for a moment, stepped forward, and took two steps forward, and suddenly felt that something was wrong-
Why is everyone stunned?
That Lord Zhou Mingyi looked interested, looked at Shen Ting and said with a smile:
"You are Cheng Xiu? Sure enough, it's a talent. ”
Shen Ting became more and more ignorant - what Cheng Xiu?
Before he could come back to his senses, a clear voice sounded beside him:
"Don't dare to ask adults, student Cheng Xiu, I've seen adults."
Shen Tingtou "hummed" - the name that the mountain chief said was not himself? In a moment of panic, he said:
"The boy is reckless, and thinks that the adult-"
was interrupted by Yang Zefang with a calm face:
"How dare you be so abrupt in front of the Lord of the Sacrificial Wine, and don't you want to make amends to the Lord soon?"
Zhou Mingyi's expression was a little strange, and he glanced at the location of the Toad Palace's Zhegui futon, as if he understood something, and shook his head at the moment:
"Young people, it's the time when you are in high spirits, and you don't have to make amends or anything."
As he spoke, he and Yang Zefang turned around, and the two of them laughed and laughed, but they actually forgot about Shen Ting.
It was Cheng Xiu, who respectfully followed behind the two, and under the guidance of his subordinates, he sat directly on the Futon of the Toad Palace.
