In the era of great unification, the Ming Dynasty was relatively special, and this peculiarity came from all aspects, such as the combination of politicians and talented people often appeared in other eras, but it was rare in the Ming Dynasty.

For example, Cao Mengde, who wrote "Short Song Xing" in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, such as Zhang Jiuling, the prime minister who wrote "The bright moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time" in the Tang Dynasty, and Wang Anshi, who wrote "Knowing that it is not snow, because there is a dark fragrance" in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Even if their political achievements are aside, they can go down in history with their poetry alone.

But in the Ming Dynasty, a similar situation never occurred, and from beginning to end, there were almost no cabinet elders who left famous poems and articles in history.

Of course, there are objective reasons for this, the Han and Tang dynasties and the Song Dynasty have finished what they can write, and the descendants really can't help it, and the Ming Dynasty is to take the scholars with eight shares, and the good Wencai may not be able to write the eight shares well.

Therefore, although the literati of the Ming Dynasty also wrote poems, they paid more attention to other aspects, such as Li Zhuowu's scripts that he had to comment, such as Xu Wei and Tang Xianzu's operas.

However, high-ranking officials do not follow the trend, and they have two options.

One is the unique psychology of the Ming Dynasty.

The other is poetry commentary.

I can't write good poems, but I can judge whether a poem is good or bad...... In fact, this is a very rogue mode of thinking, but it was quite popular in the Ming Dynasty.

Wang Shizhen actually relied on this to control the literary world for 20 years, and as far as he is concerned, there are not many popular works handed down...... This is to assume that he is not Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng.

And Xu Jie is very good at both, so when he saw the sentence "Falling red is not a ruthless thing, turning into spring mud is more protective of flowers", it was easy to judge that it could not be written by his daughter.

Zhang was still talking with great interest, "That Qian Jiazi was stunned at the time, this was suppressed, and he asked who wrote it...... I can't keep my soul, and it is said that I almost fell when I went out. ”

Xu Jie's gaze fell on the paper on the table again, and he muttered again, shook his head and asked, "Whose poem is it?" ”

"Written by the girl."

"Huh?"

Zhang didn't dare to be stubborn anymore, and hesitated for a while before whispering, "It's Xiao Qi...... It is said to be written casually. ”

The difference between the two can be seen from the title, Miss Xu Si named Can, and Xiao Qi still has no official name, because she was born with a milk name of Xiao Qi, which has been used until now.

However, the similar situation is not limited to the Xu family, Qian Yuan's younger sister is already thirteen years old and has no name, only a little sister.

Even the later Wanli Emperor did not hurriedly give the name of Zhu Yijun until the second year of his father's accession to the throne Emperor Longqing, when he was about to make the crown prince, and he was five years old at that time!

"Huh?" Xu Jie raised his head with interest and smiled, "I remember that last year, she also filled in new words in imitation of Weng's fortune operator, but unfortunately it was only half a que." ”

This is also one of the reasons why Qian Yuan wants to rob people, he is really afraid that the two poems released will spread all over the world, not only himself, Zhao Wenhua and Wang Cuiqiao must be crazy!

But who wrote it, this is not the focus of Xu Jie's consideration, he carefully asked about Qian Yuan's words and expressions in the backyard, frowned and thought hard in his heart.

"Master, it's been seventeen years since the turn of the year, and I can't wait any longer." Zhang couldn't help but remind.

Xu Jie's mood tonight was obviously very good, and he asked with a smile: "Is Madame interested in the Gu family or the Qian family?" ”

"The Gu family is very wooden, and he has no reputation, it is said that he didn't even pass the county test last year, so he was afraid that it was an embroidered pillow and a pile of grass." Zhang's spirits perked up, and he analyzed carefully: "But the advantage is that there is no mother-in-law above, and my grandfather and grandmother are all in Songjiang's hometown, so I can live a good life." ”

Xu Jie was still thinking in his heart, and asked casually: "What about Qian Zhancai?" ”

"He is handsome, and he is a lifter, maybe he will be able to become a jinshi this year, but he is too arrogant and difficult to get along with, so he is afraid that the bright girl will be wronged in the future." Zhang said hatefully: "I haven't forgotten that incident two years ago!" ”

This is talking about Qian Yuan's refusal to marry two years ago, but Xu Jie doesn't care about it, and others don't know, but he knows it, which is why he feels that Qian Yuan is slippery and doesn't keep his hand.

"Too arrogant, not easy to get along with?" Xu Jie shook his head and said with a smile: "If he really has a perverse temperament, how can he have a wide range of connections, how can Suiyuan be full of guests, and how can he be famous and praised by the world." ”

Zhang heard the tendencies in her husband's words, and hesitated and said, "But Fan'er, I'm so angry today...... I'm still jumping on my feet. ”

"It has nothing to do with him." Xu Jie didn't care what his son thought, and said with a smile: "When Zhancai was leaving, he also said that he would send some Songjiang pastries in a few days to relieve your homesickness." ”

"That'...... So he intended it? ”

Xu Jie was speechless, and suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Sir, ma'am." A woman walked in with a plate.

"What's wrong?"

"The Qian Mansion sent pastries, and several young masters like to eat them, and the fourth lady asked the old slave to keep a share and send them for the old lady to taste."

The mother-in-law respectfully put down the plate and went out, Xu Jie looked at Zhang's with a smile, the latter shook his head helplessly, the eight characters have not been skimmed, and the heart is not at home.

deliberately asked someone to send a copy to the study, naturally Miss Xu Si was hinting at something.

This is not a good thing for Zhang.

But for Xu Jie, this is a hint given by Qian Yuan.

Zhang's anger refused to eat, but Xu Jie tasted it, the softness melted in his mouth, and the sweet fragrance overflowed, so he couldn't help but eat a few more bites.

"I don't think I've seen anything like this before." Xu Jie pushed the last bit left to Zhang, "Songjiang has this kind of pastry?" ”

Zhang tasted it and pursed his lips and said, "I haven't seen it...... It is said that the Qian family is good at cooking, and the mooncakes made by himself three years ago are very famous in Huating. ”

"Send it so soon......" Xu Jie muttered a few times, it was only more than three hours now, and he couldn't even wait for the next day.

Seeing that the Zhang family finished eating the pastry in two bites, wiped his mouth and asked again, Xu Jie waved his hand and said, "Let the husband think about this matter again...... Although Qian Zhancai is only double ten, he is very thoughtful, and his previous refusal to marry is actually not rude. ”

"Although he is just a man, he has a lot of weight in the court, and he is a marriage...... Don't act rashly. ”

Zhang thought for a while and asked tentatively: "The master is suspicious, the Qian family just wants to come up?" ”

Xu Jie thought about it in his heart for a while, "It's hard to say, I refused to marry before, and I had a fight with Fan'er again, and suddenly my attitude changed greatly......"

"The concubine thinks the master is too worried." Zhang said with a smile: "Young Mu Ai is also a common thing, although the Qian family who just entered the backyard is respectful and polite, but his words are very tough, and he will take out the Pan family to talk about things." ”

"It's still the two lines of poetry that stunned him, flipping through the history books, there are countless similar things, but this time it's a reversal of men and women." Zhang covered his mouth and smiled: "Although that mouth is really sour, compared to it, the Gu family is really too inferior." ”

Xu Jie thought about it, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, indeed, no one dares to regard Qian Zhancai as an ordinary person now, but after all, he is only twenty years old.

Zhang quietly packed up his things and left the study, and went straight to the small building to find his daughter.

"Don't worry, the nails are all knocked to death." Zhang said in a low voice: "No one will dare to talk about this in the future, what about the girl?" ”

"I went back early, she didn't ask for that Jin Busha, she only took away a thrush." Miss Xu Si helped Zhang sit down, "Xiao Qi also said that he would not follow......

"I don't dare to say anything to her." Zhang smiled and said: "Your father hasn't settled down yet, if you look at each other, it should be in the first month, don't wear too bright at that time, it's better to be elegant." ”

"Mmmm, it's all up to my mother."

"The Gu family is not even a child until now, the Qian family is already a dignified person, and in two months, he may be a two-rank jinshi, and your father also values him a lot, he is handsome and handsome, and he has good cooking skills, and he is a good match at that time."

Indeed, at the age of twenty, he became famous all over the world, had a wide range of connections, was in the heart of the emperor, and was quite a young man with means, Qian Yuan was an out-and-out golden beetle son-in-law in this era.
