"Fireworks Alley, Yiyo Danqing Barrier, fortunately interested in someone, can be searched. And it is red and green, romantic, and smooth. The youth is all over the place, and I endure the floating name, and I change the shallow low singing. ”

Lifting people, too students, frustrated literati, scholars with wide robes and big sleeves, flying warriors, arrogant imperial relatives, wealthy businessmen who spend a lot of money, fireworks and willow alleys, bright lights, light songs and dances, of course, need these generous characters to come to cheer.

It's a pity that since the first year of Jingkang, there have been frequent wars, and there is no longer any mention of imperial examinations in the north. Even if Wang Song is now in control of the Xuanfu Division, the regime in the north is stable, and the Xuanfu Division will have no possibility of taking the imperial examination.

These frustrated scribes are still indispensable to the wine shop song workshop and Goolan tile, their fragile and sensitive hearts need these empathetic women and fragrant wine to comfort, only in these Yingge Yan language, color and art of the fat powder pile, in this gentle country, under the anesthesia of alcohol, they can feel their own existence.

The night is low, the lights are on, the whole Daimyo's mansion has become lively and extraordinary, all over the restaurant, the sound of singing and laughing is endless, and the official prostitutes with beautiful makeup and clever smiles are warm and fragrant, and the fragrance is gusting. Where the wine is charming, people have drunk themselves.

In an accord on the second floor of Cuiyun Building, a group of down-and-out literati are gathering to drink away their sorrows.

"Everyone, what do you think of this Wang Song, he has already controlled the northern land, why don't you take the imperial examination, do you still want me to wait for people who are full of wealth, and want to take the test like those pickled people?"

Qi Zizhen's face turned red, and he picked up the wine glass on the table again and drank it all.

The scholars next to him shook their heads and sighed. Liu Yiwei glanced at Qi Zizhen, who was drunk and hazy, and said with a smile:

"Brother Qi, if you feel that Huai Cai has not met, you can go to the "Jixian Pavilion" set up by the Xuanfu Division to try it. However, in the following opinion, it is not impossible to take the "Chinese Administrative School" exam. ”

A person next to him shook his head and said, "Brother Liu, this is a bad word. I want to wait for the cold window for ten years, do I have to be with the officials again, and I am willing to be cheap, this matter must not be!"

Qi Zizhen slapped the table and said loudly: "Brother Liu, Honghu Yan can be with the birds, how can a gentleman live in a filthy land." It's not right, it's not right!"

Liu Yiwei said with a smile: "Brother Qi, Brother Zhu, don't be impatient, and listen carefully."

Zhu Youguang nodded and said, "Brother Liu, what do you think, and take your time, I'll listen to you!"

The other scholars in Xizhong also sat up straight and looked at Liu Yiwei together, wanting to hear what he could say.

Liu Yiwei said in a low voice: "Everyone, according to the etiquette system, the imperial court will take the imperial examination for three years, and the number of scholars will be no more than two or three hundred. And this "administrative school" enrolls nearly a few thousand people at a time. Ask yourself, can you win the championship in one fell swoop, high school jinshi?"

Everyone in the room is secretly scheming. Even if there are 300 scholars in the imperial examination at a time, it is only about 100 people per year, which is too small compared with the two or three thousand people in the Xuanfu Division at a time.

"Brother Liu, having said that, it's just that I have been studying hard for many years, if I only have the position of a minister, how can I be worthy of my ancestors?"

Someone in the crowd replied, causing a wave of echo from everyone next to him.

"Don't be impatient, don't be impatient!"

Liu Yiwei waited for everyone's voices to be lowered, and then continued:

Although the officials of the "administrative school" are officials, they can be promoted to officials, and the number of years is based on political performance as the promotion level, which is faster than one or two years and three or five years slower. According to the old practice of taking scholars in the imperial examination, it will take at least 20 years for officials to become officials. You say, aren't the officials under the Xuanfu Division officials? ”

Zhu Chuwen nodded and said, "What Brother Liu said is very true. The imperial examination is one out of ten thousand, three years and three years, and I don't know where I will end up. Although the "administrative school" is said to be a clerk, how

It is also said to appease the people, persuade the farmers to teach the mulberry, educate and train the people, and I can try it when I wait. ”

He glanced at Qi Zizhen, who was already drunk and drowsy, shook his head and said: "Brother Qi is only eight buckets high, and he thinks very highly of himself, and he has not recruited an official position in the "Jixian Pavilion", he is impassioned, don't be surprised!"

Others laughed and said: "I will pull him to the "China Administrative School" to sign up tomorrow, and with his ability, it should not be difficult to get in." He'll have to thank us then?"

Zhu Chuwen nodded and said, "Everyone, it's not early, let's drink the wine in the glass!" Tomorrow, let's go to the "China Administration School" to sign up, and we can also have a future!"

Everyone made a promise together, drank the wine in the cup, and walked downstairs together with Qi Zizhen, who was already unconscious.

Before everyone reached the gate, a large group of young scholars in robes walked in.

"Brother Chen, has you always been good?"

Liu Yiwei saw one of the young scholars in the team, and hurriedly bowed.

Brother Chen didn't expect to see Liu Yiwei here, his face turned red, and he replied: "Brother Liu, don't come to harm." The younger brother has something to do today, so he will leave. ”

Brother Chen hurriedly ran away, followed behind a group of young scholars, and went up the stairs to the second floor.

"Brother Liu, who is this Brother Chen just now, and how did he escape from the road?"

Seeing Liu Yiwei standing in a daze, Zhu Chuwen stepped forward and quipped.

Liu Yiwei reacted and nodded:

"The one who passed just now was the student of the "Administrative School". This Brother Chen Hui, his Hun family is a distant cousin in Xia, so he recognizes it. ”

Zhu Chuwen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "The students of the "Action Academy" are really the same as the previous students and down-and-out scholars, playing the piano and writing poems, singing in a low voice, living up to their youth!"

Liu Yiwei shook his head. As far as he knew, Wang Song had very high requirements for officials, so how could he allow his students and future officials to enter and leave the fireworks and willow fields and defile themselves?

"Brother Han, the cost of this "Cuiyun Building" must be a lot of money!"

Chen Hui looked at everything in the room with envy, and his little eyes were full of envy.

A scholar also shook his head and sighed: "Sure enough, it is magnificent, and it is unbelievable!" Even the drinking utensils used here are gorgeous. Sure enough, it is the leader of the Daimyo's Mansion, and it lives up to its reputation!"

"Brother Chen, Brother Cao, drinking wine and writing poems, and singing about wine is a great joy in life, so why care about the level of cost. Like just now, "drinking wine", "catching up", "only responding" and the like are rewarded with two or three thousand dollars, which is nothing to worry about!"

Han Zheng said with a smile: "If you call a few more beauties to accompany you and play the piano and howl, it will cost more than 10,000 dollars!" Brother Chen, life is geometric, let's have fun in time! ”

Deng Fucai stretched his neck and leaned up and said: "I heard that Liu Yiyi, the Oiran lady here, sinks fish and geese, and closes the moon and shy flowers, quite like the style of Master Li in Tokyo City back then, I don't know if it's true or not?"

"I just hate that we were young at the time, and we didn't have a glimpse of Master Li's demeanor!" Han Zheng said regretfully: "It's just that I have seen Liu Yiyi of this Cuiyun Building, and it is average, not outstanding!"

Deng Fucai, Chen Hui, and other scholars immediately gathered up and urged together: "Brother Han, have you had a dewy marriage with this Oiran lady, but let's hear it!"

"How can I say that I, Han Zheng, am also a child of a family!"

Han Zheng said disdainfully: "As long as the silver is enough, Chang'e will also untie her clothes, let alone a Liu Yiyi!" It's the same as other women, just whiter and longer!"

"Brother Han is really a romantic man!"

Chen Hui blinked his little eyes, and the saliva at the corners of his mouth was about to flow out. Deng Fucai's eyes are also shining, and he is obviously already in the spring.

"Brothers, today's eating, drinking, and having fun are all wrapped up in my Han Zheng!"

Han Zheng was in high spirits and said loudly: "Mom, why haven't you seen Yiyi and the other little ladies coming?"

"Han Yanei, here, here!"

The old bustard walked in quickly, bringing a gust of incense.

"Don't worry, officials, Yiyi and the little ladies will come over immediately!"

Han Zheng frowned, and urged impatiently: "Mom, hurry up and let the little ladies come over, these brothers of mine can't wait!"

The bustard agreed to go out. One of the students asked worriedly, "Brother Han, is it a little inappropriate for us to do this?" In the school, it is clearly stipulated that students are not allowed to live in prostitution. If it's going to be discovered, wouldn't it be troublesome!"

"What are you afraid of!"

Chen Hui's small eyes widened, and he said angrily: "I train every day in the school, and at the end of the day, tired people will die, and they will be miserable!" Today is a day off, not in the school, although drinking and enjoying yourself!"

Deng Fucai also said dissatisfiedly: "I originally thought that this "administrative school" was just writing and moving, but who knew that I would have to run every day, line up, and stand on the teaching field for an hour, like a fool!" It's not easy for seven days to be a rest day, if you don't eat and drink well, how can you be worthy of yourself?"

The other men stopped talking, and each shook his head.

In the pavilion, the warblers and swallows are constantly laughing. As the official prostitutes came in, the room immediately became lively.

These students of the "Administrative School" were all admitted through the exam, and they had a bit of "ink" in their heads, and they were even more generous. These official prostitutes in Cuiyunlou are also very good at color and art, and the two sides come and go, true and false, and they are red and cui, and they will be drunk after a while.

"Mom, why hasn't the little lady come yet?"

Faced with Han Zheng's dissatisfaction, the old bustard smiled embarrassedly and said: "Official, Yiyi's little lady is inconvenient today, why don't I change you one." The little lady An'an has just come from Jiangnan, and she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you ......"

Before the old bustard finished speaking, Han Zheng had already stood up and walked out with his legs.

"I want to see, which pickled thing dares to compete with me Han Zheng?"

Han Zheng went out, the old bustard followed closely, Chen Hui, Deng Fucai and others put down the wine glasses in their hands and hurriedly followed.

In Liu Yiyi's room, a middle-aged man was drinking and laughing with Liu Yiyi, and the two of them came and went, tender and sweet.

The door was pushed open with a "bang", and Han Zheng walked in angrily, followed by the old bustard and Chen Hui and other scholars.

"Who are you, get out of here!"

The middle-aged man was furious and scolded sharply.

Seeing the middle-aged man so domineering, his hand still tightly wrapped around Liu Yiyi's slender waist, Han Zheng's eyes were on fire, and he stepped forward quickly and kicked at the middle-aged man.

Liu Yiyi was taken aback when she saw Han Zheng enter the house. This son of the Han Zheng family is as anxious as fire, and he is used to being arrogant on weekdays, where can he tolerate others to drink irresponsible about him.

The middle-aged man let go of Liu Yiyi in his arms, dodged Han Zheng's kick, stepped forward with a punch, and beat Han Zheng with a long nosebleed.

"Even like a bird, you dare to come out and fight! Lao Tzu has never been afraid of Fanzi on the battlefield, and he is not afraid of death!"

Han Zheng touched the blood on his nose, became angry, and yelled at Chen Hui and the others behind him: "What the hell are you doing here, give it to Lao Tzu, kill Lao Tzu and carry it!"

Han Zheng was in charge, Chen Hui and the others were behind, and they all picked up chairs and stools, and went straight to the middle-aged man.

Seeing that the momentum was not right, the bustard quietly withdrew from the door. In a moment, the official of the street division had already come up and went straight to the room where everyone was fighting.
