Chapter 11 Participation in the Literary Conference
Moreover, in the village, he has already taught a lot of hunting and fishing skills to Han Ye and the three of them, and they can also supervise each other in the next exercises,—— so Liang Jin asked Li Cuier to tell them that he was going to the township with the teacher, and then he didn't wait for them to send it, so he hurriedly packed his luggage, and followed Liu Xiucai and the two to the township in an ox cart.
Soon after, I entered the township, the township of Zhenhai Township, which is a large village twice the size of Tianyu Village, but there are usually many markets here, which also meet the needs of nearby villages to purchase daily necessities.
After arriving at the door of Liu Xiucai's house, Liu Xiucai sat on the ox cart and said, "Jianhao, we have arrived." ”
This "Jianhao" is the "word" that Liu Xiucai gave him after Liang Jin went to school, the ancients all had a "name", and then there would be a special "word", such as Li Bai, the word "Taibai", so he was called "Li Taibai".
Liang Jin jumped out of the carriage first, and then he helped Liu Xiucai to get out of the carriage: "Teacher, please get out of the carriage." ”
"Hmm".
After both of them got out of the car, they pushed the door and walked into the courtyard, which was a two-entry house.
The first house in the courtyard was used as a private school for teaching, and the second one was for Liu Xiucai's family to live in.
Afterwards, the two of them walked into the classroom that was used as a private school, and at this moment there were thirteen or fourteen students sitting in the entire private school, all of whom were students from the township or nearby villages; However, among these students, only Liang Jin and another student were admitted to the Tongsheng exam last year, and that one student's family was a wealthy family in the nearby Sanxiang Wuli, and his name was Gao Sheng.
Obviously, the students in the private school class were all assigned homework tasks before Liu Xiucai went to Tianyu Village, so as soon as Liang Jin and them came in, they saw that these classmates were writing something on the paper.
Subsequently, Liang Jin returned to his position, and Liu Xiucai began to lecture, the content of the lecture was obviously to review the homework of the previous days, and Liang Jin took out the book from the book bag, sat on the seat, and turned the book, but listened to what Liu Xiucai said with relish.
On the contrary, not to mention the other students, most of them are mediocre talents, so they are also happy to talk about the content of the previous days,—— but only Gao Sheng, he is very dissatisfied in his heart, and too much dissatisfaction falls on Liang Jin.
Originally, everyone is a student, why did Liang Jin enter school in the first two years, and only paid a month's shackles (that is, the ancient tuition), and then, Liu Xiucai was exempted from all the shackles in the future, it can be seen that Liu Xiucai felt that Liang Jin was a talent, and felt that Liang Jin's family was too poor, so he was exempted from his shackles, but that's it; However, why are he and Liang Jin both children who were admitted last year, why does Liu Xiucai always praise Liang Jin in class, okay, that's it, you see that Liang Jin is going to attend a private school almost a week later, this Mr. Liu actually went to his home to personally invite him (in Gao Sheng's eyes, he really regarded him as invited at this time), which is too conniving and partiality for Liang Jin.
However, Gao Sheng has always been scheming, and besides, in this ancient world, the dignity of the teacher was extremely valued, so Gao Sheng didn't dare to bring it up,—— but, this bred his jealousy of Liang Jin.
Just after school, Gao Sheng deliberately stayed at the end to leave, and at this time Liu Xiucai was talking to Liang Jin: "Well, Jianhao, you have been living with me for the past few days," this Liu Xiucai said this to Liang Jin again, "Let's go, let's go to the inner house now, your wife has already made dinner at this time." ”
"Yes, teacher," Liang Jin said respectfully.
And Gao Sheng saw this scene in his eyes, and he couldn't help but be jealous, but at this moment, he quickly had an idea, and said to Liang Jin: "Brother Jianhao, tomorrow morning in the palace of Wang Shilang in Lingao County, there will be a 'literary meeting', Brother Jianhao is willing to go with me?" ”
In the past, Liang Jin only paid attention to the writing of eight strands, but he knew nine of the eight tricks for poetry, but this Gao Sheng was very wide-ranging, and he could write a few poems in a decent manner, so at this time, he invited Liang to participate in the literary meeting of Wang Shilang's other garden, obviously uneasy and kind.
Let's talk about this Wang Shilang, Wang Shilang's name is Wang Yuanliang, he used to be a household servant in the court, and he returned to his hometown in October last year. Not to mention Lingao County, it is the entire Qiongzhou Mansion, he must be counted as a celebrity in the contemporary Qiongzhou Mansion, it can be said that he Wang Yuanliang and Wang Shilang can be regarded as the number one!
As the saying goes, "Ten years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver", this is not from the mouth, in this Great Wei Dynasty, at this time, the roots are already festering, so the corruption and bribery in the court and the local government are simply above board.
Therefore, he Wang Yuanliang, a waiter, and he is also a Beijing official, it can be seen how much money he can hold, there is a big mansion in Qiongzhou Mansion, and there is naturally such a set of villas in Lingao County,—— these are drizzles for him as a high-ranking official at the level of a waiter.
At this moment, Liu Xiucai heard his disciple Gao Sheng say that he wanted to invite Liang Jin to go to Lingao County to participate in the literary meeting held in Wang Shilang's Villa, he knew that this Wang Shilang was not a simple character, in fact, this Shilang was only forty-six years old, saying that he was returning to his hometown, but it was just a reason, because he was squeezed out by political enemies in the court, so he had to use the excuse of returning to his hometown to retreat; But he didn't expect that as soon as he handed in the fold of his farewell to his hometown, the emperor's imperial pen was approved, so this Wang Da Lang and the central high-ranking official had no choice but to return to his hometown.
Since this Wang Shilang is the head of Qiongzhou Mansion, the literary meeting he held, how can he do it? Don't look at the location in Lingao's courtyard, that is, he happened to live in his hometown of Lingao County, and he wanted to hold such a cultural meeting on a whim; But those people with heads and faces in Qiongzhou Mansion naturally don't dislike that they are in Lingao County, and they must all be able to participate in this cultural meeting.
- This shows that his influence and appeal in the local area are huge, and besides, this is an elegant thing, and everyone must be very happy to see it.
But Liu Xiucai, this Liu Xiucai's name is Liu Jingrun, as soon as he heard Gao Sheng say that he wanted to invite Liang Jin to participate in the literary meeting of Wang Shilang's other courtyard, the literary meeting, poetry must be the first to be appreciated, so at this time, Liu Jingrun was very worried that his beloved apprentice Liang Jin would be embarrassed when he went there, after all, Liang Jin was not very good at poetry, so Liu Jingrun said:
"Jianhao, you still have to study at home......
But before he finished speaking, he was retorted by Gao Sheng, who had always been scheming: "Sir, in fact, the students also know that Brother Jianhao is a little lacking in poetry, but the students just think that this kind of place is a place of insight, and it may not be the turn of Brother Jianhao to appear on the stage to present poems, and the students are present, and they will definitely try their best to block Brother Jianhao; Besides, this kind of place is very high-end, and for people like Brother Jianhao who have never seen the world, it is a rare opportunity!
Sir, you think, Brother Jianhao may encounter such incidents in the future, it is impossible to blindly excuse it, imagine that if you keep resigning, the reputation is not good, but for Brother Jianhao, it is also a good time to lose friends outside! You say yes, sir. ”
"Well, there's some truth to that." Liu Jingrun groaned and nodded.
Originally, Liang Jin was still quite grateful to this Gao Sheng's classmate, but when he looked at Gao Sheng, he found that Gao Sheng's contemptuous eyes when he looked at him, and he immediately knew that it was not good, this must be the stumbling block that Gao Sheng gave himself,—— but he has the memory of later generations, isn't it just a few poems, although he doesn't know much poetry, but there are so many essence poems in later generations, don't you know how to copy them? In his previous life, he was also very fond of classical poetry culture.
So, after the teacher Liu Xiucai also nodded in a deep voice, Liang Jin said: "Teacher, the disciple is willing to go to the literary meeting invited by Brother Gao Sheng." ”
……
……
The next morning, Wang Shilang's other garden literary meeting.
After stepping into Wang Shilang's villa, Liang Jin felt one word - "big"!
This courtyard covers a vast area, including small bridges, flowing water, rockeries, and many houses, without the wide area of land, it is absolutely impossible to accommodate these.
At this time, the place where the cultural meeting was held in the annex garden was an elegant and antique place.
Moreover, there are a lot of people here, all in groups, of course, they don't feel crowded at all, there are many young talents and scholars who look personable among these people, and there are a lot of warblers and Yanyan,—— not to mention, if you don't have the memories of your own life in your previous life, if you are Liang Jin, who is the child of the old hat farmer in the countryside, I am afraid that at this time, I will directly coax it.
And after Gao Sheng accompanied Liang Jin into the place where the cultural meeting was held in this villa, he said to Liang Jin: "I saw a few friends, go and say hello to them first." So, Gao Sheng took this opportunity to get rid of himself and disappeared,—— which was naturally a joke about watching Liang in and out of his back behind his back.
Liang Jin naturally knew Gao Sheng's sinister intentions, but he wouldn't go along with his wishes,—— when he saw Liang Jin in the other garden, his behavior was almost very regular and polite, and he really looked like a young handsome scholar with good literary talents, plus before Liang came in, Liu Xiucai prepared a semi-new dress for Liang Jin in advance, which was worn by Liu Xiucai when he was young,—— although it was worn by Liu Xiucai when he was young, but in this era, the goods were not prosperous, and there were only a few sets of clothes for this literati, so, Liang Jin doesn't have to worry about being outdated at all.
Seeing Liang Jin's coping appearance like this, Gao Sheng secretly gritted his teeth, the hatred in his heart couldn't be calmed down for a long time, but then, a dark smile immediately appeared on his face, and he secretly hated in his heart:
"Liang Jin, even if it is difficult to find flaws in your behavior, do you think you can escape my palm? Dream on! Humph......"
