On the bank of the Qinhuai River, Meixiang Building.

I heard that the Son of Heaven had been subdued here when he was young, and he also improvised a few poems, and the reputation of Meixiang Building was famous, and it was called the first building in Qinhuai.

It has been five years since Zhu Cihong visited this place again, but he found that there has been a lot of change.

It turned out that Li Xiangjun, the top brand of Meixianglou and one of the eight Yanans of Qinhuai, married Zhao Jinglin, the god of the gods, and was rumored to be a good story, and her stepmother Li Zhenli also became the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion and had no time to take care of Meixianglou.

In the end, Meixianglou was acquired by a wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was greatly decorated, becoming the first choice for literati and ink writers, and it topped Qinhuai.

"Falling red is not a ruthless thing, turning into spring mud is more protective ...... flowers"

Wu Zhong silently read the couplets on both sides of Meixianglou, and suddenly said, "Young Master, isn't this the poem you wrote back then?" ”

Zhu Cihong was a little speechless: "The boss of Meixianglou is very good at doing business!" ”

Naturally, he won't pursue this matter, after all, this poem was also copied by himself, so why is he embarrassed to be cheeky to defend his rights......

Entering Meixiang Building, a young man with rich work experience took the initiative to welcome him and invited Zhu Cihong and his party in.

It is still the old place of the elegant seat on the second floor, and the pretty maids came to serve tea and wine, and introduced the next program in a whisper.

After listening to this program, Zhu Cihong was quite surprised, has this Meixianglou been upgraded industrially? How did you start a show like a party? Don't get wet right?

But what surprised him even more was that the guy with tea and water behind the maid was actually a black girl?

I have to say that this innovative business model has a unique exotic flavor, and it has opened up the grade with its peers at once!

Zhu Cihong couldn't help but smile, it seems that this move to open the sea has worked very well, and many businessmen have discovered new business opportunities and are doing business with Western bandits.

The new business opportunity was not the slave trade, but the South Seas.

Zhu Cihong didn't pay attention to those programs, but pricked up his ears and listened to the discussions of the soldiers upstairs and downstairs.

"The exam is going to start tomorrow, I heard that it is still the six arts of the gentleman?"

"It should become a routine, because of this thing, a certain has been at home for two years......"

“......”

Suddenly, someone sighed: "I'm really afraid that the Holy Lord will suddenly ban the Qinglou ......"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused the surrounding scholars to exclaim: "The saint is also a man, can he do this?" ”

Someone took the case: "Yes, you can collect business tax and land tax, but you can't ban Qinglou, otherwise we will be in a hurry with him!" ”

Some people also said bitterly: "This is a place of spiritual sustenance for us, and this place has been banned, isn't this a book burning pit Confucianism?" ”

Zhu Cihong's face was full of black lines when he heard it, and he said that Jiangnan Shizi represented the interests of Jiangnan merchants and landlords, but in the past, he was helping others shout for interests, but now this is related to his own vital interests, and they are more anxious than monkeys.

Seeing that the crowd was raging, all of them were blushing and thick-necked, and when they first caused the topic, they immediately panicked, worried that they would be arrested for the crime of spreading rumors, so they immediately stood up and explained.

With sweat on his forehead, he waved his hand again and again: "Don't be excited, you are just worried about the sky, my emperor is Shengming, young and promising, and he takes Qin Huai Bayan as his friend, and he will definitely not do such a thing as crossing the river and demolishing the bridge......"

Hearing this, the scholars in that circle took a long breath and continued to return to normal, talking and laughing.

Zhu Cihong didn't have much interest in this kind of weak scholar who had no power to bind the chicken and could only run the train with his mouth full, and was ready to leave.

But at this time, he heard a scholar talking about the Confucian family, and it seemed that he was arguing.

"Today, the saint at least goes to worship Kong Sheng, which shows that he respects Kong Sheng, and the thief is a big rebel, and he will not go to Kong Lin to worship when he arrives at Kong's house!"

"Except for the Holy Father, it's just not right! Disrespectful to Kong Sheng! ”

"Kong Yinzhi surrendered to the enemy, and he can't deal with it?"

"Today's saint is the most important rule, even if he is a descendant of Confucius, he can't ignore the law of the country!"

"Yes, shouldn't the descendants of Confucius take the lead in being loyal to the monarch and patriotism, and upholding the norms of national law?"

A scholar with a keen sense of politics has already seen that the emperor is preparing to establish rules to rule the country.

After reading the books of sages for so many years, many people know that the boldest saints of the past generations are all Confucians.

Legalism not only appeared during the Warring States Period, but also continued to develop in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and there were also Legalist subjects in the imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty, and the status of Confucianism was fully ascended during the Song Dynasty.

Historically, people who preferred the Legalist concept of governing the country also included Zhuge Liang, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, Wang Anshi, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, Zhang Juzheng, etc.

However, most of the emperors who have won praise are good at using both the concepts of law and Confucianism to govern the country, such as Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

It can be seen that the pulse of Legalism still exists, and Legalism has tenaciously expressed itself in many important historical moments, such as Zhuge Liang's rule of Shu, Yongzhen's reform, Wang Anshi's reform, and Zhang Juzheng's reform period, making history move forward again and again.

Emperor Tianwu, who first ascended to the great treasure, is no exception, when he was the crown prince, he has made excellent political achievements in Jiangnan, and he will be the emperor in the future, and his achievements are limitless, maybe the Ming Dynasty will create a prosperous era......

Seeing that a bunch of scholars in the hall quarreled because of the matter of the Kong family, the old mother of Meixianglou immediately rushed over, and shouted with a smile on her face: "Talents, Miss Ling will leave the pavilion tomorrow (get married), and please come to enjoy the light tomorrow, take care of it!" ”

The girl Ling mentioned by the old mother is the top brand that Mei Xianglou has just packaged during this time.

In Qinhuaihe, and even in the entire Ming Dynasty, the top brand is the most important entertainment headline, just like the debut of the island actress in the later generations, the company will first carry out a number of publicity activities to build momentum for the debut.

is different from island actresses, their audience is otaku, dick silk and other popular men.

The audience of Qinhuaihe's top brand is dominated by the Shilin class of the Ming Dynasty, the real elite class, and the grade is not known to be many times higher.

Of course, if you want to photograph such a high-end top girl, you don't know how much silver you have to sprinkle.

For the exit ceremony, the ticket cost alone is very high, and it is not cheaper than the front row of the concerts of some popular singers in later generations.

The important thing is that if you want to photograph this top girl and marry her home as a concubine, you will have to face the threat of price hikes from dogs inside the Qinglou, and I don't know how much more silver you will have to pay.

"Merchants are profit-seeking after all!"

Zhu Cihong sighed secretly, and his interest in the boss of Meixianglou was greatly reduced.

As the top girl, the business scope is generally only long-distance piano strokes,, close chat, fiddling with poetry talents, and few people accompany the wine.

At that time, Li Xiangjun, the top brand, was even colder than Hollywood female stars, and it was not easy for an official to even want to meet in private, and it was not easy to listen to her songs, let alone be set out of the cabinet by this similar auction.

If you want to be the guest of the top girl, it all depends on chance and creation.

The current Meixianglou, from the couplet at the door, to the black girl maid, to the top card out of the cabinet, reveals the atmosphere of wealth everywhere.

A scholar shouted: "Your Meixianglou is getting more and more out of class, and the top girl is still out of the cabinet?" ”

Zhu Cihong nodded secretly, there are still righteous people and gentlemen in his heart.

However, to Zhu Cihong's surprise, the scholar then said: "In this case, then please come out quickly, let me wait for a sneak peek!" If you have the right eye, Zhao will go bankrupt and take away the beauty! ”
