Twenty-sixth: Zhou Qiwen (II)
"If you don't talk about this rabbit again, I'll throw it into the fire for you." An Zhengquan glared at him and said.
Han Zhiyan: "Isn't this coming?" What's the hurry. β
Han Zhiyan coughed lightly and said: "Since ancient times, it has been said that heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass, and the same is true for this amazing and brilliant prime minister.
I heard that Master Zhou studied at a seowon in Kyoto when he was young, and he was young and vigorous at that time, and he didn't know how to restrain his edge, and he was jealous of a high-ranking disciple of the same academy. was privately interrupted by the boy's brother, and when Lord Zhou was trapped, it happened that a girl passed by and saved him and his future.
Lord Zhou was saved by the hero and naturally fell in love with that girl, tsk, I heard that as long as you are interested in someone, then you are not far from falling in love with him. Han Zhiyan couldn't help but sigh when he said this.
"You know all this? Looks like you've had a lot of life. An Zhengquan said with his eyebrows squeezed into his eyes.
"Ha, isn't this all what Mr. Storyteller said?" Han Zhiyan said embarrassedly.
An Bao'er said helplessly: "Okay, let's go on." She didn't want to listen to these two naΓ―ve people, she hadn't finished her story yet.
Hearing this, the two were silent.
Han Zhiyan hurriedly said: "Later, the two met a few times, and rescued the girl when she was harassed. At that time, I knew that she was Shen Caiwei, the third daughter of Shen Songzhang, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, and she was a concubine, so she was often bullied by her sister-in-law.
Between the two of them, you thank me and I thank you, and they look at each other when they come and go. After Miss Shen and Lu, she asked her mother to ask a matchmaker to be hired, but unfortunately although Zhou was talented at that time, the time for the imperial examination did not come, and Zhou was only a person at that time, and Shen Songzhang, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, did not look down on Zhou Qiwen, who was still just a person.
In fact, it's not that I can't look down on it, it is said that this Shen girl was born very beautiful. This Taichang Temple Shaoqing is an official fan, and he wants to send her to the palace to be a mother.
So Shen Songzhang hesitated and refused. Lord Zhou asked reluctantly, if he could be admitted to the top prize, could he give him a chance to take Miss Shen San.
Shen Songzhang didn't want to offend this talented young man. He said that if he could get the top prize, he would agree to marry his daughter to him. It's a pity that Lord Zhou didn't ask to marry that daughter at that time, and Shen Songzhang wanted to marry another daughter to Lord Zhou, Shen San Girl, he must send her to the palace, as for Lord Zhou's potential, is it as great as the emperor?
If Lord Zhou can really be admitted to the top prize, then he can marry his concubine to him, after all, the concubine is much more noble than the concubine. It's all his daughter anyway!
Since that day, Zhou has studied hard since he went back, and he has not stepped out of the study for half a step. Everyone knows that this talented man has a sweetheart, and he studies hard for his sweetheart. aroused the envy of the young ladies of all families, and they all inquired about which woman was so lucky. It's a pity that Lord Zhou didn't want to ruin Miss Shen's reputation at that time, so no one inquired about it.
Miss Shen San knew that Zhou Qiwen worked so hard for herself. It's a pity that she knows that her father won't let him marry Zhou Qiwen, she knows that her father wants to send her to the palace, she has always been obedient, she is crying and making trouble, and her father is still unmoved when she goes on a hunger strike. and threatened her with the life of her own biological mother, so that she had to obey the arrangement. Thinking about this week's article, my heart is sour and astringent.
As early as the time of the examination, Shen San's girl had already been sent to the palace, and Master Zhou studied hard without knowing it, and his family knew but did not dare to tell him.
I took the exam for three days, and by the time I finished the exam, I was already tired and paralyzed. After sleeping at home for two days, the list is out. As expected, he won the leader, and when he met the emperor in the palace, he got the emperor's favor and won the name of the champion.
After leaving the palace, when Lord Zhou wore red clothes and rode a horse through the streets, I don't know how many boudoir girls' hearts fell on the high-spirited young man. Countless handkerchiefs fell all over the streets.
After returning home after the street tour, before he had time to change his clothes, he wanted his mother to go to Shen San's house to propose marriage. When his mother told him that Shen San had already been sent to the palace, Lord Zhou ran to Shen Songzhang's house like crazy, and everyone saw the appearance of the new champion Lang and ran with him. When looking at his runway Shen Songzhang's house, everyone understood that Lord Zhou's sweetheart was the third girl of the Shen family.
As soon as Lord Zhou knocked on the door of Shen Songzhang's house, he saw Shen Songzhang go out to greet him.
Lord Zhou hurriedly asked, I wonder if Lord Shen would have counted if he had promised at the beginning?
Shen Songzhang replied: Natural calculation. Come in and talk, Shen Songzhang glanced around and looked at the lively humanity.
Lord Zhou kept looking at Shen Songzhang and slowly followed him into the door of Shen's house. As soon as he arrived in the hall, Zhou Qiwen said: I want to take Shen San as my wife, and I will promise Lord Shen.
Shen Songzhang said with a dark face: Cai Wei has already entered the palace to be a mother, and you have no fate. And I only said that you can marry my daughter, and I didn't say that it was Cai Wei.
When Lord Zhou heard this, he was stunned. didn't speak, stood up and walked straight to the gate of the Shen family, and as soon as he walked out of the gate of the Shen family, a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth and fell to the ground. Suddenly, he saw Shen San girl waving at him, so he slowly closed his eyes. β
"What a pity! In the future, if I meet someone I like, I will definitely marry her back as soon as possible. An Zhengquan sighed.
Han Zhiyan and An Bao'er both looked up at him when they heard An Zhengquan's words.
Han Zhiyan: "Tsk! β
An Bao'er: Boy, this flag can't stand!
"How...... What's the matter, why are you looking at me like this, I just sighed. An Zhengquan was extremely uncomfortable by the two.
"Oh, Han's words make you remember to turn the rabbit." An Bao'er saw that her fourth brother's ears were red, and changed the topic.
Han Zhiyan continued: "Later, after Lord Zhou returned home, he didn't eat or drink for three days, and then somehow went to work as an official in another place. Later, the new emperor ascended the throne and was transferred back to Kyoto. Later, in less than 20 years, he completed what others could not complete in their lifetimes, but he never married a wife, and then he resigned for some reason, saying that the emperor did not agree, but he suddenly disappeared one day, leaving only a letter to the emperor. β
After speaking, Han Zhiyan sighed: "Lord Zhou was already the prime minister at that time, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to be so chic." β
An Zhengquan replied to Han Zhiyan: "Tsk! β
Han Zhiyan: Heh, retarded.
"That's not right. How do you know so much, didn't you say that these things can't be talked about? Don't tell me you heard your grandfather and father say it when you were five or six years old. An Bao'er was a little puzzled.
If Han Zhiyan's grandfather and father would not have said it in such detail, it would have been as if they had seen Zhou Qiwen and Shen Caiwei's experience with their own eyes.
