Chapter Eighty-Three: Fame
In the early morning of the next day, Chu Zhi woke up, everything seemed so natural, and the Chu family was also calm, only the firecracker confetti left in the corner of the eaves proved the fact that Chu Jian was celebrating, and the joy was naturally there, but the days had to go on, and the Chu Mansion was back to its former busyness.
However, there are naturally changes, no matter what, the alum building is the first building in Bianliang City, Tokyo, where princes and ministers, dignitaries, and merchants and gentry often gather, and the celebration banquet of the children is also very popular, and the girls who serve in the Moon Pavilion will naturally spread the pomp and circumstance of that night.
And the people who participated in the banquet will also preach to relatives and friends, less than a hundred words Ai Lian said, under the oral recitation, it immediately spread in Bianliang City, and Chu Zhen's reputation also rose, if the last mountain pavilion banquet, Chu Zhen's reputation was only spread in a small area, then today it can be said that everyone knows.
After all, no matter how well the words are written, they can't be compared with some well-known lyricists, and compared with poetry, scholars and doctors pay more attention to the article, the poetry is just fun, and the text is to carry the Tao, and Ai Lian said that although the length is short, but the words are like pearls, which is very different from the popular flashy literary style, it seems to have the style of ancient literature, and the meaning is endless.
With the recitation of Ai Lian said, Bianliang City for a while, the wind of planting lotus and appreciating lotus prevailed, as soon as the lotus on the market was put up, it was immediately snapped up, there were many smart merchants, and they also began to play the idea of lotus lotus, some embroidered lotus patterns on their silk brocade cloth, and some simply engraved the articles that Ai Lian said on their own goods, it is because of the merits of these people that Ai Lian said that the love of the cross was centered on Bianliang City, and slowly spread to all parts of the Great Song Dynasty, and even Liaoxi Xia and other foreign countries.
After a few days, Chu Zhen's identity was poked out, and everyone was shocked to realize that the person who wrote this article was actually a teenager, which made many people secretly ashamed in their hearts, and they were even more amazed by Chu Qian, and some reckless people even came to visit, but fortunately, Chu Luo or Chu Jian came forward to send them away.
But time will dilute everything, after all, no one will only revolve around Chu Qian, and it is only half of Ai Lian said, the second half of Chu Zhen was not written, and there is no more far-reaching meaning, the scholars just think that this article is novel, or they are surprised that Chu Zhen is young and has such a deep literary foundation, so it didn't take long for things to subside, although so, Chu Zhen has been deeply remembered.
In a corner of the White Bird Academy, slender willow fluttered and swayed in the wind.
"Since Jing Chun wrote Ailian, the students in the courtyard have gone to the pond pavilion when they have time, so that now they can't go there to admire the fish in the pond." Letting go of the wicker that he was pulling, Gao Shilin said leisurely.
"Hehe, didn't you say that you wanted to enjoy the scenery of willow branches in the wind, but you gave up because there were too many people here to rest, but now that you have the opportunity, why do you miss the time when the wind blows and the cold in the small pavilion." Sitting on a stone chair under the shade of the willows, Chu Zhi said with a smile, smiling from time to time to the students who passed by and saluted him.
"At this time, at that time, I suddenly realized that resting in the pavilion is also a pleasant thing, watching the fish swim naturally in the water, and I can also experience the joy of fish." Gao Shilin chuckled lightly and said in a low voice: "It's already autumn, and the pond is full of broken flowers and leaves, I really don't understand what they are admiring." ”
"If you can't eat grapes, you can say that grapes are sour." Chu Jue said slightly, this sentence was still taught to him by Chu Qian.
"Wenyu, you can't say that, the pavilion is so small, I'm worried that there are too many people and I can't bear it." Gao Shilin said solemnly: "I am concerned about their safety. ”
"I'll tell them about your kindness when I get the chance, and I hope they don't think you're cursing." Chu Zhen couldn't help laughing, teased, and suddenly said: "Caiqing, I've been too busy these days, I forgot to ask you, the last time I lost my honor after drinking in Bailu Building, did the son of the Cao family ever be surprised?" If they still have a grudge, I can make amends and ask for forgiveness in person. ”
As a traverser, the self-aware Chu Zhen deeply knows that in these decades, the Cao family, which has been prosperous in the Great Song Dynasty for a long time, cannot be offended, not to mention the Empress Dowager Cao, who will listen to the government in the future, just the Cao family's accumulated contacts in the imperial court for decades is not something that the Chu family of a small scholarly family can compete with.
"Jing Chun rest assured, they also knew that you were too drunk at the time, so they were careless in their words and deeds, and they didn't take it to heart afterwards." Gao Shilin waved his hand and said, but a certain little beauty of the Cao family raised her eyebrows in her heart, and she looked lightly angry and angry, and her eyes were also a little weird.
"You seem to be afraid of them, why?" Chu Jue seemed a little curious.
After squeaking and whining for a long time, under the gaze of the Chu brothers, Gao Shilin chose to tell the truth: "We are relatives, and they are also my future brother-in-law. ”
"No wonder you were so nervous that night, it turned out that you were afraid that the future sister-in-law would know." Chu Zhen suddenly smiled and said, he is not married yet, he spends all day drinking outside, but he meets his future wife's family, no wonder Gao Shilin's confidence is so weak.
"Who said no, I finally shut their mouths, but poor my monthly money is gone." Gao Shilin said in frustration, not only that, but the silver that he had finally obtained from his brother-in-law flew away before he could cover the heat, and he was really sad in his heart.
"Who made you so unlucky, you don't find a good place to go out for fun." Chu Zhen quipped.
"The best place in Bianliang City is the Alum Tower." Gao Shilin muttered: "Could it be that you are talking about the character problem." ”
"Well, when you go out in the future, you'd better go to the Chenghuang Temple in the south of the city to find Tiekou and ask for the next hexagram." After telling a joke, Chu Zhen said seriously: "Caiqing, you thanked the son of the Cao family on my behalf." ”
"Don't worry, they're not that stingy." Gao Shilin froze, his eyes rolled slightly, and he seemed to understand something, and immediately smiled to dispel Chu Zhen's doubts.
"That's good, I have a chance to ask them again." The melodious bell of the academy rang, Chu Zhen smiled and nodded, said hello, and slowly walked towards the academy.
"There's definitely going to be a chance." Gao Shilin said softly.
At dusk, the sky was red with the afterglow of the sun, and as usual, Chu Zhen and Chu Jue walked together, walking for about twenty minutes, and when they returned home, they found that Chu's house was full of lights and bright smiles up and down.
"The second son and the third son are back." The door opened, Chu Zhen stepped over the threshold, and a servant greeted him with a smile on his face.
"What's going on at home?" Avoiding a few hanging lanterns, Chu Zhi asked with some confusion.
