Chapter 14 The Four Talents of Wuzhong

Thinking that there are a lot of scenic spots in Suzhou Mansion, Zhang Junfang has stayed for five days so far, and only then did he and Zhu Youzhi and his party leave this inn, but they only left Suzhou Mansion after all, they only left Suzhou Mansion, not Suzhou. Bayi Chinese Network ? .? 8?

After leaving Suzhou Mansion, the group went directly to Tiger Hill, stayed in Kunshan County for two more days, and then went to Zhouzhuang Town, which is under the jurisdiction of Kunshan County, and Chen Tomb Town.

Chen Tomb and his entourage met a lot of people, including Tang Yin, who should have been assigned to the river because he was involved in the scientific examination fraud case during the March examination, and several of his friends, just like Zhu Yunming, who did everything possible to see Zhang Junfang a few days ago, and the other two Wuzhong talents.

Zhang Junyu's line, every time they went to a place in the past, it was already evening, and every time they were in a hurry to find an inn to stay, and this time when they arrived at Chen's tomb, it was no longer evening, but shortly before lunch, which can not be said to be a coincidence, it can only be said that it was because Chen's tomb was quite close to Zhouzhuang, so they came out of Zhouzhuang after breakfast, and arrived at Chen's tomb in less than two hours.

Compared with Zhouzhuang, Chen's tomb is quite peaceful here, there is no hustle and bustle and noise of Zhouzhuang, but it is much quieter, but in the eyes of Zhang Junfang and his party who came from Zhouzhuang, it seems a little deserted here.

Probably there are not many tourists in the Chen Tomb, and even the people in the inn are quite scarce.

However, such quietness is exactly what Zhang Junfang wants.

Go to the inn to stay, wait for Nanxu and a few people to arrange everything, it is time for lunch, Zhang Yu listened to Zhu Youji's instructions, and then went down to find the innkeeper to order.

The people of Jiangnan are really full of human touch, and the proprietress of this inn is very kind to people, beckoning Zhang Junyu and his group of five people to come over for dinner.

Zhu Youzhi has always had the habit of taking a walk after dinner, and now even outside the palace, this matter is unavoidable, he stood up after the meal, was going out, and noticed that Zhang Yu was following, so he replied: "You don't have to follow." ”

Zhang Yu didn't want to follow, but now Zhu Youzhu commanded. He was naturally willing to go back to rest, but Zhang Junyu followed out, and Zhu Youzhu said, "Why did you come with you." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Junyu only said: "It's too much to eat." ”

Zhu Youzhi knew that she hadn't eaten well, but she didn't say anything. Just holding her hand and walking together, after walking for a while, Zhu Youzhu was talking to Zhang Junzhu, but Zhang Junzhu suddenly stopped, and Zhu Youzhu was stunned. Looking back at her, he asked, "Why don't you leave?" ”

Zhang Junyu smiled and said, "My feet hurt." ”

Hearing Zhang Junyu say this, Zhu Youzhu also knew what she meant, so he said, "Aren't you too late?" I'll have to walk around on my own. ”

Zhang Junfang doesn't care what he says, in her eyes, no matter what it is, he is willing. She didn't say anything, she just raised her eyes and stared at Zhu Youji, and then spread her arms. Zhu Youzhu had always had no choice but to turn around, bow down slightly, and continue to walk with Zhang Junyu on his back.

Zhu Youzhu teased in his mouth: "It seems to be heavier." ”

Zhang Junfang said: "You didn't raise it yet." ”

"Blame me," Zhu Youzhu echoed, and Zhang Junzhu responded: "Yes." ”

Zhu Youzhu said: "What do you want to eat, what can I do if I don't let you eat." ”

Zhang Junyu said: "You don't look good when you're thin, but now that you're fatter, you say I'm heavy, so do you like me to be thinner or fatter?" ”

"I didn't say you're fat. I'm just saying you're a little heavier than before. ”

"Oh," Zhang Junyu nodded and pretended to cater to him, and then said, "Then do you like me to be thinner or fatter?" ”

"I like both," he said. Zhu Youzhu said again: "But you should be fatter, too thin and others will always think that I abuse you." ”

Zhang Junyu laughed when he heard this, and said, "Who is so discerning." ”

Zhu Youzhu didn't answer because the two of them had arrived at the shore of Wubao Lake, and Zhang Junqi saw Concubine Chen's water mound in the middle of the lake and came down. walked to Zhu Youji's side and said to himself: "Is there really no way to pass?" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Youzhu looked at her sideways and said, "Why do you still want to go over and have a look?" ”

"That's not it," Zhang Junyu also glanced at him, but saw a man who looked like a scholar on the other side of the shore walking quickly towards them, and the two of them looked at the scholar together.

The scholar approached, bowed slightly with Zhang Junqi, and then looked at Zhu Youzhi and arched his hand and said: "In the following signing, seeing Your Excellency's scholar's dress, it must be a scholar." ”

Hearing that this person was Wen Zhengming, Zhang Junzhu and Zhu Youzhu were both stunned, although Zhu Youzhu did not return the salute, but also said modestly: "It's not a scholar, but I just know a few words." ”

Wen Zhengming heard this: "Then there is a reluctant request below, please ask Your Excellency for a favor." ”

Zhu Youzhu glanced at Zhang Junyu sideways, and then replied: "Xiang Wen said that as long as you can do it, she will naturally help you." ”

Scholars are always polite to each other, and when he heard that Zhu Youzhu claimed to be "below", Zhang Junfang always felt uncomfortable. Wen Zhengming said: "I only tried the poems with Shen Zhou's seniors below, and my friends have been unable to distinguish between Shen Zhou and Shen Zhou because they are seniors, so I would like to ask you to move to comment on the comments." ”

Zhu Youzhu did not hesitate and immediately agreed. In addition to Wen Zhengming and Shen Zhou, there is also a scholar in his early twenties standing next to the table, who must be a friend in Wen Zhengming's mouth.

"Senior Shen said that Changgu can't tell the difference, so Zhengming asked others to comment, and Senior Shen should rest assured," Wen Zhengming's words were weird and weird with Shen Zhou, but it was not difficult to hear that the friendship between these three people was very deep.

Shen Zhou glanced at Zhu Youzhu and Zhang Junqi, but he didn't seem to want to pay attention to them, Wen Zhengming's friend had some insight, strode towards the two of them, and asked, "I don't know what this benevolent brother is called?" ”

Zhu Youzhu said: "Under the surname Liu, the word opens first." ”

The friend then exchanged words with Zhu Youzhu and Zhang Junyu: "Oh, Xianggong Liu, Mrs. Liu." ”

"Then I don't know your surname?" Zhu Youzhu asked.

"Your surname is Xu, and the word is Changgu."

Xu Changgu, it turned out to be Xu Zhenqing!

I heard that Xu Zhenqing looked a little ugly, and his appearance was not good, and he couldn't compare to the other three, but now that I see it, it's really the case.

Xu Zhenqing invited the two of them to walk to the table, looking at Wen Zhengming and Shen Zhoujun as if they were incompatible, and estimated that he was also a little embarrassed in his heart.

"Called Mrs. Liu Xianggong smiled when she saw it, and these two friends were talking about literature and poetry here, and somehow suddenly argued. He also said that he would write poems according to the title and compare them. Senior Shen said that he would be partial in the future, but he didn't follow it, this is not. Zhengming asked the two of you to come here to comment, and it will trouble you. ”

Zhu Youzhu said politely: "Xu Xiang's words are serious, and he and his insiders also like to talk about literature and poetry, so it's not troublesome." ”

"Yes, today the two ministers are superior. Then it's better to let the concubine come up with a question," Zhang Junyu said and looked sideways at the middle of the lake, and then replied: "How about the two ministers use Concubine Chen's water mound as a poem?" ”

Before Zhang Junfang's voice fell, Wen Zhengming had already put pen to paper and composed poems, and Shen Zhou was not to be outdone.

In the blink of an eye, he saw Shen Zhou put down his pen, Wen Zhengming's eyes were quick, and he was no less than this elder, so he directly raised the paper on the table, looked sideways at Zhu Youzhi and said, "Please also ask Liu Xianggong for some advice." ”

Shen Zhou is a person with a bad temper, and he saw Wen Zhengming like this. It's not like him, he just recited the poem by himself, "Jun En pays the flowing water, there is no resurrection of the fairy concubine, there are guests fishing for the bright moon, and the fragrant soul should be borrowed." ”

Wen Zhengming looked at Shen Zhou, and did not interrupt him, still holding up the small poem he had written, and Zhu Youzhu waited for Shen Zhou to say before reading his poem. There is also a decent way: "Who sees the gold sinking under the water, and the empty fragrance and jade are closed to the beauty." Monarchy. Love flows with the water and wins Hanxi Shang surnamed Chen. ”

Zhu Youzhu praised after reading it: "It is indeed a good poem." ”

Shen Zhou was angry when he heard this, and suddenly crumpled the poems in his hand. Throwing it to the ground, he scolded "no eyesight", and then brushed his sleeves away.

Wen Zhengming saw Shen Zhouyang leaving, and he was quite unhappy in his heart, so he threw down the poem in his hand and followed closely. The two of them are chic, but Xu Zhenqing is in a hurry.

Xu Zhenqing and Zhu Youzhi hurriedly made a fuss with Zhang Junqi. only said: "It's a joke for the two of you, these two friends are stubborn, and they didn't mean it, so please don't blame them." I have to go with me here, say goodbye first, and meet again when I have a fate! ”

Seeing the three of them leaving in a hurry, Zhu Youzhu and Zhang Junqi were also speechless to respond, saying that the two of them had been out for a long time and it was time to go back.

After dinner, Zhu Youzhu went out for a while, and then rested after coming back, there were a lot fewer people in the inn at this time, and a few tables were sitting, Zhang Junzhu was still standing in the attic, and Nan Su came out and called softly: "Madam, the owner called you in to rest." ”

Zhang Jun agreed, and suddenly asked, "Fan Liang is back?" ”

Nan Su shook his head and said, "Not yet, but I think it's soon." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Junyu just followed Nan Su into the house.

Zhang Junfang had just entered the house, and a group of four people entered the inn, and the leader among the four was Xu Zhenqing, the one behind Xu Zhenqing was Zhu Yunming, and the poor scholar who walked side by side with Zhu Yunming was Tang Yin, whom Zhang Junming had always admired. When the four of them came in, Zhang Junfang happened to enter the house, and she always had no chance to see Tang Yin.

Wen Zhengming walked at the end and said: "Why didn't Bohu come to Chen's tomb without informing us in advance, we can also go to pick you up." ”

Tang Yin said: "I didn't know that you were also in the Chen Tomb, if I hadn't seen Changgu just now, I'm afraid I wouldn't have met you." ”

Hearing this, Xu Zhenqing replied and said: "This inn is only one hundred miles away, and it's strange if you can't meet it." ”

Tang Yin smiled: "That's what I said." ”

As if he remembered something, Wen Zhengming suddenly grabbed Tang Yin's sleeve and asked, "What about Miss Shen, why don't you see her?" ”

Tang Yin's face was slightly gloomy, and he said, "Jiuniang is still in Suzhou." ”

Wen Zhengming knew that these words made Tang Yin uncomfortable, so he said: "By the way, Bohu, you just met Changgu, have you ever seen Shen Zhou's old stubbornness?" ”

"Shen Zhou?" Tang Yin was slightly stunned and said, "He's there too?" ”

Wen Zhengming's face turned blue, and said: "That old stubborn, I kindly called him to travel with Changgu today, but I didn't expect him to be unhappy with me, and he had to compare poems with me." ”

The four of them sat down at this moment, and Xu Zhenqing smiled, "Brother Zheng Ming and Senior Shen are making people laugh today." ”

"Oh?" Zhu Yunming said: "What do you say? ”

Wen Zhengming continued: "He wants to compare poetry with me, I say that line, what Changgu produces, then we will compare anything." Who thinks that he said that Changgu is my friend, and he will definitely favor me, but I don't follow, I have no way, so I had to invite a couple surnamed Liu who came here to play, and it happened that they were also scholars, so Liu Xianggong praised my poetry well, and he immediately ran away. ”

Tang Yin had a great friendship with Shen Zhou, and said: "Senior Shen is old, and his temper is still a little stubborn, why do you bother with him." ”

This Wen Zhengming's temper is also very strong, he heard Tang Yin say this, he was displeased, although he did not speak, his face was gloomy, the other two also knew that Wen Zhengming was unhappy, and hurriedly relieved the siege, Zhu Yunming said: "Zhengming, Bohu and Shen Zhou's seniors have always had a good relationship, say these words, don't go to your heart." ”

These four people have a good relationship, Wen Zhengming's face improved a lot in an instant, and he sneered: "I'm a stingy person, Zhishan underestimated me." ”

Tang Yin was about to answer, when he suddenly heard the proprietress of the inn walk up to him and said with a smile: "Isn't this Xianggong Tang Yin?" ”

Hearing this, Tang Yin smiled and responded: "It's indeed Tang Yin below." ”

The proprietress was pleasantly surprised: "I have always heard that Tang Xianggong is talented, and he is still a township test to solve the yuan, and now he can see the style, but he is fortunate in three lives." ”

Speaking of what the township test would try, Tang Yin's face immediately changed, and the other three knew that this matter should not be mentioned, and they didn't know what to do for a while, but they heard Tang Yin say angrily: "What if you are talented, what if you are talented!" No one appreciates it, and it's not a poor scholar! I think I, Tang Bohu, have been studying hard for ten years, full of wealth, and I just look forward to being in the middle of the day, but now I have ended up with the status of a scholar! The court doesn't know people, and the people are not wise, and we, the scholars, don't have a good career after all! ”

Hearing Tang Yin complain like this, the proprietress was stunned, probably because she had said the wrong thing. Tang Yin said that, Fan Liang happened to come in from outside, and Tang Yin spoke sharply, so he naturally asked Fan Liang to listen word for word.

This Zhu Yunming not long ago to protect Tang Yin, had asked to see Zhang Junyi, at that time Fan Liang was also there, at this time Fan Liang came in from outside, all the way upstairs, his eyes fell on Tang Yin, Zhu Yunming saw him like this, naturally a little suspicious, and felt that this person was very familiar, he thought about it, and then remembered, this is the person next to Zhang Junfang!

Zhu Yunming saw that Tang Yin was still going to complain, so he hurriedly interrupted and called out "Bohu", Tang Yin was stunned and asked, "What are you doing!" ”

"Beware of the ears on the wall!" Zhu Yunming still lowered his voice and reminded him.

The other three were all stunned, Tang Yin was also stunned, Zhu Yunming suddenly remembered that Fang Cai Wen Zhengming mentioned a couple surnamed Liu, so he asked: "Zhengming, the Liu Xianggong you just talked about, but is it called Liu Xiankai?" ”

Wen Zhengming nodded and said, "How does Zhishan know." ”

Zhu Yunming was naturally shocked when he heard this, and immediately stood up, and the other three people did not solve it for free, Zhu Yunming only said: "This place is not suitable for a long time, let's go quickly." (To be continued.) )
