17. South Park Experience Talk
Xiao Xin's house in the fang is called "South Park".
After the officials introduced Gao Liu and the others, Gao Yue looked at Xiao Xin's courtyard, which was very simple, and it seemed that this free rider was by no means a hot figure in the court.
So Gao Yue quietly asked the official who led the way, "Can Xiao Sanqi preside over the Ministry of Rites test?" ”
The old man holding the candle raised his neck and frowned, as if he had thought for a while before replying, "Baoying seems to have let go of a list in the second year." ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu De's face behind him turned purple, Baoying was fourteen or fifteen years ago, and he only came to Chang'an City at that time, and he vaguely remembered that Xiao Xin did know about the tribute, but this era is too long!
Gao Yue's mood was even more complicated, because he wanted to compete with Zheng Qi, he was in a hurry, holding the poetry scroll written by Liu Changqing, and if he gave it to Xiao Xin, he couldn't give it to Pan Yan again, because it was very taboo to submit more than one volume.
In the South Garden, the lantern was hung up, Gao Yue and Liu De Room sat cramped and restless on the seat of the hospitality, and after a while, Xiao Xin took off his chapter uniform, wore a scarf and a casual robe, and walked out with a rattan cane, and smiled and groaned at Gao and Liu, "The two Lang Jun sit and sit, and the wine and food will be served immediately." ”
Now Gao Yue can only get up and salute, thinking that this Xiao Sanqi is so old, and there are no children beside him, and he feels lonely as an empty nester, so it is not good to be cruel to him and say to him that the two of us are actually going the wrong way. Alas, you should accompany this Xiao San!
When the servants served the wine and food, Gao Yue thought about it, took out the scroll written by Liu Changqing, and dedicated it to Xiao Xin. Xiao Xin was also a scribe (1), and he was knowledgeable about poetry and songs, and he looked at Gao Yue's scrolls, and he was greatly appreciated - and then looked at Liu De's scrolls, which were also highly praised - "If Lao Yu is the head of the Ministry of Rites in the coming year, he will definitely take Gao Langjun as the head, and Liu Langjun will be a little behind." ”
Liu Demu was just about to bow his head and complain, but was secretly held back by Gao Yue.
Then Gao Yue respectfully asked Xiao Xin, confessed the competition between Taofen Shed and Zheng Qi's Zhanghui Shed, and then asked the old man to come up with an idea to help him.
Xiao Xin was very satisfied, because he was very lonely every time he went to the court, and it had been a long time since a young man like Gao Yue had asked him for life experience so humbly, of course, he had to teach him.
"Why doesn't Gao Langjun advance by retreating?" Xiao Xin leisurely proposed this plan to Gao Yue, and then he pointed out a specific method, "Don't confront Zheng Qi and Zheng Wenming head-on, he went to Pan Li's house to do the scroll, if Langjun you also go, there will be a fight, and Gao Langjun is not Zheng Qi's opponent, so it is inevitable that he will fall behind." According to the old man's opinion, it is better to start with Pan Lishi's family. After all, Xiao Xin's house is adjacent to Pan Yan, and he is familiar with the situation in the other party's home.
Gao Yue was stunned, "Xiao Sanqi, do you mean that Pan Yan has a daughter?" ”
It's not okay now, if I take too much of the "high-ranking official and little lady route", it will be exposed, after all, I can't be a higher company.
Xiao Xin shook his head and said, "You follow the path of Mrs. Pan Li." ”
Gao Yue was so frightened that his eyes were about to bulge, and he wanted me to seduce Pan Shilang's wife? This, this is more like a Tang Dynasty Yu Lian! But the time is tight and the task is urgent, even if you seduce at this time, I'm afraid it's too late.
But what Xiao Xin said below made Gao Yue breathe a sigh of relief, "Pan Lishi's wife is the daughter of Liu Yishang, this woman has always been frugal and self-loving, but sometimes she is overly cautious, and she is always afraid that her husband will do something corrupt and disorderly in the court officialdom, so she will often go to Sang Daomao at the Dongshi Iron Store to divination, and you and Liu Langjun can grasp this." ”
That's right, Pan Yan is Liu Yan's son-in-law! Speaking of which, Gao Yue is a spirit.
I'm going to go to Liu Yan's appointment soon...... Gao Yue groaned, and then listened to Xiao Xin's plan.
After Xiao Xin finished speaking, Gao Yue nodded again and again, this ginger is still old and spicy after all.
Next, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves at the banquet, Xiao Xin also warmly invited Gao and Liu to stay in the South Park, Gao Yue couldn't agree to come down, and Xiao Xin and Gao Yue arrived at night and talked about the situation in the court and the world for a while, so that Gao Yue learned a lot.
The next day, Gao Yue and Liu Demu stood in front of the gate of the South Park and bid farewell to Xiao Sanqi.
Xiao Xin was reluctant to cling to the two, but when he said goodbye, he still told the truth, "Actually, the old man knows that the two of them are going to Pan Li's mansion to do scrolls. Alas, my children are not around Wen Shen (2), and I am the old man of the country, and the front door is definitely not a place for handsome people to gallop, and I have not been visited by young descendants for so many years, and the old man is indeed a little lonely! I also want to thank Gao and Liu for never saying anything, and accompanied the old man all night, so when a scholar not only has to be talented but also has a good character, but it is a pity that the old man knows that the tribute is fifteen years ago, if the old man can be the master of the country in the future, he will fulfill my promise last night, and promise the two of them! After speaking, Xiao Xin handed over the scroll submitted by Gao Yue and insisted on returning it, even saying that the old man would not say much, and the two Lang Jun still sent the scroll to the main division.
Gao Yue was also very moved, saying that listening to Xiao Sanqi's good words last night had already increased a lot of extremely valuable life experience, how could he dare to expect Xiao Sanqi to ride through the list?
After the two left Xiao Xin's house, Liu Demuro cried with a sad face, saying that Xiao Sanqi's suggestion was really reliable?
Gao Yue looked at him and said that this Xiao Xin is worthy of being a descendant of Jiangzuo Xiao's family, and the planning is very in place, so it's up to us to see it below, "After all, life is like a play, and I am a screenwriter." He thought to himself.
"You don't really want to deal with Pan Lishi's wife?"
"Hey, Brother Fang Zhai. I'm very confident in the lady's scroll, don't you see that the two little ladies of the Cui family are fascinated by my giant editor now? Mrs. Pan is definitely no exception, but before that, she had to bother Brother Fang Zhai to perform in disguise. Gao Yue was very confident and patted Liu Demuro on the shoulder.
Liu Demuro also relented and stomped his feet......
The next day, the two of them dressed up carefully, and after coming out of the Pure Domain Temple, Liu Demuro glued a lot of fake hair to himself, wore coarse cloth clothes, and held a small flag, as if he had become a fortune teller.
Then Liu Demu swaggered to the stone bridge outside the Dongshi Iron Store, where he sat down openly, facing Sang Daomao's hexagram stall.
At this moment, Sang Daomao was shocked.
Sang Daomao is known to everyone in the capital at this time, this is extremely good at Taiyi Dunjia, the number of the five elements of the disaster, according to legend once predicted the defeat of Xiangzhou in the nine sections, Emperor Daizong also heard of his miracle, and it is immediately said that he is going to edict him to enter the imperial court.
Now Liu Demu dares to set up a stall on the other side of the bridge, isn't this openly arguing with the famous Sang Daomao.
In fact, Liu De's room is also very nervous, where does he know what kind of divination and divination he knows?
But Gao Yue said to him, "Isn't it easy to calculate your fortune? I'll teach you the easiest way to do it. ”
"What, what?"
"That is, if Sang Daomao says the east, you will say the west, and if Sang Daomao says that you will lose, as long as something is against him."
"This, that's okay?" At the head of the Tiehang Bridge, Liu Demuro was squatting there with a banner, not daring to trust Gao Yue's words at all.
Soon, a lifter went to Sang Daomao for divination and asked if he could ascend to the throne this time.
After Sang Daomao made a long speech, he shook his head and said no, he was disappointed, but he didn't give up, so he walked to Liu De's hexagram stall with the mentality of giving it a try.
