Zhao Xing shook his head and continued: "First: sea seals, you can also call it seals. This is a vicious beast in the sea, with sharp fangs, which were specially captured from the sea of the far north by several of my subordinates, for fear of rotting, they are packed in the freezer, and the leopard is frozen all the way to Bianliang by speedboat. There are two seals, and my family can't eat one leopard, so the rest is yours.

Second: people often say that eight feet is Jiao, when the Japanese people catch seals, they catch a net of sea Jiao from the sea that is one zhang long, this thing is good, it grows in the far north, it grows one inch a year, can grow one zhang long, and lives for a hundred years.

Well, have a dragon and tiger fight in the sea - these things will arrive in five days, you can put up a notice now and book in a few days. When seals and sea Jiao enter the city, I must have made them do enough to attract all the gourmets of Bianliang City to your Hele Building......"

Hearing Zhao Xing's words, Dong Xiaoliang didn't have a happy expression, he looked a little worried: "My mother, a one-zhang long sea Jiao, isn't that a mountain spirit beast?" Who dares to eat this thing, don't get into trouble for it. ”

Liao Xiaoxiao also nodded frequently beside him. Chen Yiyi didn't know how thick the sky was, she blurted out: "Isn't it the North Sea moray eel, Brother Xing, was that the thing you gave me to eat last year?" ”

Chen Gongchuan kept smiling and didn't interject, he was not the host and guest, so Dong Xiaoliang didn't entertain him, so he kept watching coldly, and when he heard his sister's words, he frowned slightly.

Dong Xiaoliang's face turned green, he hasn't said yet: Find a sea fish that is a zhang long, folklore believes that it is a small dragon, and the emperors of all dynasties have promised to be "descendants of the dragon", and the people of the world are "slaves of the dragon" - who dares to eat this thing?

"The Japanese people dared to eat it, they have eaten it for hundreds of years, and think that this thing is a rare treasure, and hundreds of years have passed. I haven't seen disasters from the sky, and I haven't seen them change dynasties, why can't they eat", Zhao Xing replied lightly: "That's it, on that day, I have a few Japanese partners and Goryeo partners coming over, and I asked them to order two copies first, so as to set an example for everyone." ”

Liao Xiaoxiao flashed her big eyes and asked softly, "Is that Jiao delicious?" ”

Chen Yiyi nodded desperately: "Of course, it's delicious." There are more than 30 ways to cook it, and one fish can make a table of dishes, enough for more than a dozen people to eat. ”

Liao Xiaoxiao continued to add softly: "It's better to do this, just promote the seal feast, mention a little to the moray eel, and talk about it softly, and when everyone eats it, they can't say it at that time." ”

Dong Xiaoliang suddenly realized.

The Song people's business promotion skills do not need to be taught. Modern commercial propaganda methods are sometimes not as advanced as those of the Song people. So Zhao Xing raised the head, and Dong Xiaoliang will run the rest by himself.

solved a matter of concern, Dong Xiaoliang was very excited. With the help of this publicity momentum, he was able to use it again in early winter, the season when dishes are scarce. Strongly pressed Pan Lou and Yang Lou, which made him very happy, he clapped his hands and called: "Xiaoxiao, sing a tune!" ”

Liao Xiaoxiao didn't delay at all, she picked up the chopsticks, knocked on the water dish a few times, and said crisply: "Since you are a protégé of Master Su." I'll sing a song by Mr. Su, when will the bright moon be there? ”

This song Zhao Xing is in Huangzhou, listening to Xu Zhizhou's concubine Shengzhi singing. He frowned, remembered the song Teresa Teng had sung, and raised his hand to stop the other party: "There is another way to sing this song, do you want to hear it?" ”

Teresa Teng's "When is the Bright Moon" is a masterpiece of modern music, and the composer is a musician. Teresa Teng when singing. The singing techniques used are unprecedented in this era, and the singing voice is undulating and tactful. and Miaomiao's trembling power, all of which surpassed the level of the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Xing's voice was very low, Liao Xiaoxiao was obviously very sensitive to music, Zhao Xing only sang once, she immediately raised her crisp voice and sang tactfully. After she finished singing, the surroundings were silent, and after waiting for a while, the cheers suddenly remembered, in the adjacent boxes on the left and right, the sound of invitation came from time to time, Liao Xiaoxiao replied one by one with a singing voice, or scolded or spitted, lightly angry and angry, and showed the demeanor of everyone at the head of the line for a moment.

"This song is good", Liao Xiaoxiao replied to the surroundings and thanked Zhao Xing in a low voice: "The big official gave me a song, and I am very grateful to Xiaoxiao." This song is sad but not sad, happy but not crazy, plain and elegant, and a little ...... to listen to"

Liao Xiaoxiao frowned, as if he couldn't think of a suitable adjective, Zhao Xing added from the side: "Gorgeous, is there a gorgeous feeling." ”

"Yes, gorgeous, that's the word...... Although the tune of this song is plain, it sounds like a grand beauty, do big officials still have such a tune? ”

Chen Yiyi snorted heavily at this time. Liao Xiaoxiao's eyes rolled and immediately apologized to Chen Yiyi.

Cheng Azhu has always been very generous. When Chen Yiyi talked about eating Haijiao just now, she had a sense of exclusivity on her face, but Cheng Azhu didn't seem to hear it, she calmly sandwiched a chopstick dish for Zhao Xing. And now Chen Yiyi is dissatisfied with Liao Xiaoxiao's flattery, Cheng Azhu is enjoying a chopstick dish brought by Zhao Xing, and he doesn't pay attention to the secret battle between the two women.

"The song is good, the person is better", Chen Gongchuan clapped his hands next to him and exclaimed: "There is such a soft singing voice in the world, such a tactful tune, and the demeanor of the Celestial Empire, which is really admirable." ”

Chen Gongchuan talked about a "Celestial Empire", Dong Xiaoliang and Liao Xiaoxiao found that Chen Gongchuan's temperament was a bit special, Dong Xiaoliang wanted to ask about the identity of the other party, but Zhao Xing stopped it first.

According to Chen Gongchuan's current identity, when he entered the Song Realm, he needed to show his identity to the Li Fan Academy, and then the treatment he encountered was likely to be a heavy reception, but then, whether he could leave Beijing or not was between the two, so everyone who Zhao Xing didn't want to make trouble knew it.

At this banquet, the guests and hosts dispersed happily, and when it was close to the end of the night, Zhao Xing took a large bag of popcorn and left the restaurant satisfied.

When I returned to Su Dongpo's residence, it was already afternoon, there were two official sedan chairs parked at the door of Su Shi, several sedan chair drivers sat at the tea stall at the entrance of the alley and chatted, Zhao Xing stopped at the door for a while, Su Shi's porter knew that this old man was rewarding, and hurriedly came and whispered: "Big official, there is a eunuch in the palace...... There is another visitor in the house, all waiting? ”

Wait for me? Zhao Xing pointed to the tip of his nose, the porter nodded slightly, Zhao Xing was confused, and hurriedly led the people inside.

Song Dynasty recitation of the Holy Decree procedure. It is not as grand and dramatic as in Peking Opera, because the proclamation scenes in Peking Opera are all artistically processed, and the so-called artistic processing means that it has nothing to do with the facts.

In fact, most of the proclamation scenes in ancient times were different from those depicted in Peking Opera, even in the Ming and Qing dynasties. In terms of details, it is that in most cases, eunuchs do not appear in the proclamation of decrees, because eunuchs serve the emperor, and ordinary people are not entitled to enjoy their service.

In ancient times, the normal scene of a decree was handed over by a local official to the person receiving the reward. Because this way the administrative cost is minimal.

Of course, in ancient times, the emperor also sent eunuchs to the minister's house to announce the decree, basically this kind of decree is of a very high grade, and the person who receives the decree is at least a first-class official or a person who is about to become a first-class official.

The man who came this time was a bearded man, he could not have been a eunuch, he was tall and burly, and his skin and bones were as strong as iron. His eyes are bright, his face is dark, and he has a beard under his head, and he is full of masculinity at a glance. Not like a eunuch after castration.

Even the words said above were very gorgeous, but these words were equivalent to playing the piano to the cow, because Zhao Xing couldn't understand this kind of article that quoted scriptures and scriptures in every sentence and had obscure words, and it took him a long time to work, and he only understood one thing: the holy decree said that he continued to pay tribute and had merit, so he was named Di Gonglang.

The decree was announced. The young man who delivered the message saw that Zhao Xing was still stunned, and he coughed several times in a row. Only then did Zhao Xing come back to his senses, and as soon as he beckoned, Cheng Azhu and Chen Yiyi showed their palms and paper sticks almost at the same time, and each of them had a bundle of gold coins wrapped in paper in their hands.

At this time, it is a question of who will take or whose money will not be accepted. Zhao Xing simply took the two bundles together. Turn over and hand it to the other person.

This was the first time that the round gold coin had been handed to the herald's officer, but the official seemed to understand what was wrapped in it. He casually checked it, felt the weight of the bundle of paper, and said sharply: "Ah, this is new money, I know this kind of money, the bachelor handed the official book to the court today, and showed the new money to the official. We know that this thing is too convenient to carry. ”

The word "our family" made Zhao Xing stunned, because when the other party said this word, his voice was too sharp, he rolled his eyes, and immediately asked: "Pavilion Chief, the student was born in a thousand miles of mountains, and he doesn't know the official position of the imperial court very well. ”

The man pursed his lips and replied sharply, "Rank 37." ”

Zhao Xing shook his head, and the anger on his face flashed. The 37th rank, this level belongs to the last rank of civil officials, and the small ones are pitiful. Probably, the so-called "big-eyed official" in modern times refers to such a small official, and this official rank belongs to a kind of loose official, with only one official name.

In fact, the purpose of Zhao Xing's questioning just now was to verify his title - the eunuchs in the palace were called eunuchs, not eunuchs. On the contrary, eunuch is a formal official title, such as the military eunuch, that is, the chief of the military superintendent, and the Si Tiantai eunuch refers to the chief of the Si Tianjian .

In the Song Dynasty, high-ranking eunuchs could be honored as "great officials", and middle-level eunuchs could be honored as "cabinet chiefs". Zhao Xing just called the other party "cabinet chief", but the other party accepted it calmly, which shows that he is indeed a eunuch - a eunuch with a long beard.

A burly, twenty-year-old, bearded eunuch, Zhao Xing had vaguely guessed in his heart that the other party was the only one of the top ten eunuchs in Chinese history - Tong Guan. As a eunuch, Tong Guan created the "ten uniques" in the history of eunuchs, and it is said that he is also the only eunuch in history who is not greedy for money and treats people very generously - because he is greedy for power.

"Pavilion Chief, but the surname is Tong's name", Zhao Xing smiled happily, and he reminded the other party softly: "In the two paper sticks just now, there are fifty gold coins in each stick, a total of one hundred. ”

The value given by this hundred gold coins. Because Tong Guan is now the most miserable time, he is still short of money to pay up and down, and now he is willing to accept it, which is a big harvest.

Tong Guan was frightened into a cold sweat by Zhao Xing's questioning, he was twenty-four years old this year, and he was nineteen years old before he became an apprentice under the senior eunuch Li Xian. This Li Xian is a famous eunuch in the Shenzong Dynasty, who has served as a supervisor on the northwest border for many years, and has some military achievements. Li Xian is known for his military exploits, and Tong Guan is burly, which happens to be very much in line with Li Xian's heart.

However, this Tong Guan still had a beard on his face because he was too late to cleanse himself, and because he was regarded as an outlier among the eunuchs, Li Xian didn't take much care of him.

Tong Guan is now a small person, and he is still the most inconspicuous kind of miscellaneous servant among tens of thousands of eunuchs. Such characters. Even the eunuch in charge didn't necessarily call out his name, but when they met for the first time, Zhao Xing said his name and surname.

Tong Guan didn't know that he was the most unique one among the ancient and modern eunuch groups, and he was the only one with a beard. So it was thought of by Zhao Xing. Looking at Zhao Xing's friendly smile, he was a little weak-hearted, touched the two bundles of gold coins in his arms, and replied in a snort: "Our family is Tong Guan, how did Di Gonglang know that he was under a cheap name?" ”

Regarding Tong Guan's question, Zhao Xing smiled but did not answer. While giving it away, he used the cover of his body to lean close to Tong Guan and whispered: "Cabinet Chief, I heard that the Pavilion Chief likes guns and sticks, so I plan to give the Pavilion Chief a good knife...... If the cabinet chief is free, you can go to Hele Building to find Dong Xiaoliang and mention my name. ”

This sentence is actually to remind Tong Guan that if you have special needs, you can raise it with Dong Xiaoliang of Hele Building. It was up to him to convey Zhao Xing, no, Zhao Xing should be called "Zhao Digong" now. Tong Guan blinked his eyes, it seemed that there was another explanation for the other party's words, that is, the other party liked to make friends with some people who liked guns and sticks. He was an outlier among the eunuchs, so his name was passed into the ears of the other party.

The reason why Tong Guan has such an understanding is because Zhao Xing is a "giant" in this era. Such a person dances and writes, but it makes people feel very awkward, if he carries a big knife, it will be pleasing to the eye.

After bidding farewell to Tong Guan, Zhao Xing returned to the house. Cheng Azhu had already excitedly put away the holy decree and planned to take it home to enjoy it. Zhao Xing disagreed. The question still swirled in his mind: "Shouldn't the eunuch be here?" How did Tong Guan come to Su Shi's house? Is this a fateful encounter? ”

He did not go back to his room, and pondered for a moment. Remembering that there was another visitor, he raised his feet and walked towards Qin Guan's room.

When he walked to the back hall, he heard the visitor in the hall chanting poetry: "And the knife is like water, Wu salt is better than snow, and the fingers are broken with new oranges." The first temperature of Jinhu. The beast fragrance continues. Sitting opposite to each other and blowing the sheng.

Whisper and ask: To whom do you stay? There have been three shifts in the city. The horse is slippery and frosty, so it is better to take a break. Straight is less pedestrian. ”

Zhao Xing stopped, he was a little familiar with this poem, and seemed to have a vague impression, frowning and thinking for a long time, he suddenly remembered: Isn't this the famous "poem under the bed"!

This man was Zhou Bangyan, and legend has it that he had an ambiguous relationship with the prostitute Li Shishi, and Li Shishi's other concubine was even more famous, he was the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, Song Huizong. Legend has it that Zhou Bangyan was once chatting privately with Master Li, but he didn't expect Song Huizong to break in, Zhou Bangyan was helpless, so he hid under Master Li's bed, and suffered all night. The phrase "Whisper and ask: To whom do you stay?" There have been three shifts in the city. The horse is slippery and the frost is thick, so it is better to go to rest, and there are few people. It was he who eavesdropped on the private chat under the bed, and Master Li used this sentence to persuade Song Huizong to stay overnight.

Legend has it that after this word was spread, Song Huizong didn't see what was wrong, he felt that he hadn't had a "third-party call", how could the content of the private chat spread out, and called Master Li to ask, knowing that the ambiguous man was hiding under the bed at the time, he was furious, and blasted Zhou Bangyan out of the capital.

Then, Master Li went to see him off, and came back with tears in his eyes, Song Huizong relented for a while, and pardoned the man under the bed......

This plot was written in "Water Margin", it is said that Song Jiang thought that his literary level had caught up with and surpassed Zhou Bangyan, so he also went to the bed of Master Li, and recited a poem under the bed, preparing to compare with Zhou Bangyan's bedside poems...... This plot is particularly obscene, so Zhao Xing remembered it.

Zhou Bangyan?! The visitor is actually Zhou Bangyan, but how can there be Song Huizong now? How can there be Master Li?

After seeing Gao Yu, Zhao Xing privately asked about Duanwang, this Duanwang had just been sealed, and now he is a 5-year-old child, based on this calculation, it is estimated that Master Li's mother has not been born yet.

I was fooled by history again - Zhao Xing walked into the living room with emotion, Qin Guan sitting on the main seat, next to two men with similar appearances. The three of them were talking about poetry together, and their faces were flushed.

Seeing Zhao Xing coming in, Qin Guan hurriedly introduced the two of them to him: "Leave, you are back, come on, I will introduce you, this is Zhou Bangyan and Zhou Meicheng, who are Tai students...... This you should know better, he is also going to participate in this year's imperial examination, Bangyan's younger brother Bang Shi, the word Nanbo. They are your fellow villagers, you should get to know them. ”

In the Song Dynasty, Qiantang was a county under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou, so Qin Guan thought that the two should have known each other...... But they really don't know each other. Because Zhao Xingyi went overseas for several years. Hangzhou manors are all presided over by the Cheng family. And Zhou Bangyan is an official in the capital, so it is impossible for him to know Zhao Xing. And Zhou Bangshi had heard of the manor by the Qiantang River, but he didn't know who the owner was.

According to Qin Guan's introduction, Zhou Bangyan's uncle Zhou, the word Kaizu, Jia eight years of Jinshi, and Su Shi in Xining sentenced Hangzhou to be the Qiantang Order, and he sang with Su Shi (there is a record of "Zhou Chief" in the "Dongpo Collection"). This time, he heard that Qin Guan was about to become a doctor of Taixue, so he came to visit.

Could it be that Zhou Bangyan sang a poem under the bed just now. Is it an ordinary poem he made during his Taixue period? Zhao Xing chatted with Zhou Bangyan with a few words full of doubts.

This guy is really a sassy person, and he immediately complained after a few words: "I don't know what the township party is governed by my brother?" Can there be a masterpiece? ”

Zhou Bangyan was asking Zhao Xing which book in the Six Classics he was good at and what great poems he had.

This exam is an Enke, that is, a special exam added by Shin Huang's accession to the throne. The content of the exam is to choose two of the six classics, play an essay based on a scripture, and then write a poem and song.

The exam is approaching, and there are more and more people in Tokyo Bianliang City. When that group of cultural people met and greeted each other, the words were not "Have you eaten", but this sentence - "What is the rule?" Can there be a masterpiece? ”

No punctuation, no paragraphs, is it still called a book? That's a word. With Zhao Xing's knowledge, he really couldn't read any of the Six Classics, and as for poetry and songs, he only remembered a few modern songs. Can you handle it?

In fact, in the Song Dynasty, singing a few campus songs would not be too shocking, but at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, when Liu Yong died. Modern songs are no longer suitable for chanting.

During his lifetime, he pioneered the school of poetry. It is written into the slang of the market, and judging from the few slang words that have been circulated in the world, this kind of word is almost vernacular, and it is not much different from modern campus songs.

Before Liu Yong's death, Song Ci still had a dispute between elegance and vulgarity. Liu Yong's pioneering "vulgar word" faction is still sought after. Even Su Dongpo wrote such colloquial words, but after Liu Yong's death. The controversy between the Song Dynasty and the vulgar was completely ended, the "elegant words" faction prevailed, and the "vulgar words" were despised. It's better to hide the ugliness than to hide it, Zhao Xing shook his head and replied simply: "Hehe, I know a few words, and when it comes to learning, it doesn't count; Poetry, seven tricks through six tricks. ”

Qin Guan was smart, he first tasted what it meant to "seven tricks through six tricks", and said with a laugh: "Seven tricks through six tricks - how can you say such a witty word, how can you be a layman!" ”

"That's it, Uncle Guan will pretend to be crazy and stupid, don't be deceived by him", Mrs. Wang flashed out of the back hall with a plate of yellow watermelon, she greeted the three people with an irrepressible smile on her face: "A few uncles, this is a tribute fruit from the palace, try it...... Clean Street Tiger, Lou A Mouse, love to be a monster when you leave people. ”

Obviously, Chaoyun had already told the scene of Zhao Xing beating people in Daxiangguo Temple in the back hall, which made everyone laugh. After Qin Guan and the others asked about the situation, they couldn't straighten up with a smile.

"It turns out that there is still the potential of Dongfang Shuo from Brother Ren", Qin Guan laughed breathlessly.

At this time, it seemed that no one dared to call themselves "Jingjie Tiger", so Qin Guan and the others couldn't help but laugh wildly when they heard such a funny nickname.

The reason why Zhao Xing did not dare to reveal his real name was because everyone in the Song Dynasty was reasonable, and street brawls were not a good reputation in the Song Dynasty. Everyone here is a smart person, of course they know his careful thinking, but being able to come up with such a creative name as "Jingjie Tiger" in the blink of an eye also makes people have to admire his wit. This name was a joke in the Song Dynasty, but for Zhao Xing, it was just a spoof, he hadn't done "push-ups" yet, what was there to laugh about, so in the laughter of everyone, he calmly picked up a tooth melon and looked at it carefully.

This yellow watermelon was introduced to China in the Song Dynasty by the natives of Vietnam, it is said that this is a Thai melon, its sweetness is 1.4 times that of ordinary watermelon, and this melon is called "golden diaphragm" in the palace of the Song Dynasty. Soon after its introduction to China, it was recorded that it was widely cultivated in several southern provinces, but after the Mongol invasion, it disappeared from China.

Zhao Xing's bland attitude made a few people laugh even more, and when a few people stopped laughing, Zhao Xing had already eaten a piece of golden palette in his stomach, he bit the watermelon flesh, and asked Zhou Bangyan vaguely: "Brother Meicheng, you have lived in Beijing for a long time, do you know where Tianbo Yang's Mansion is?" Why did I ask for a long time, but no one in Manbianliang City knew? ”

Zhou Bangyan was also surprised, he frowned and thought for a while, and replied, "Tianbo Yang Mansion...... I haven't heard of this name - Tianbo Mansion, Tian...... Home, leaving people, you must have been deceived, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, dare to name your mansion with this name, isn't that bent on seeking death? Oh, I didn't hear that Kaifeng Mansion had captured the surname Yang in recent years to rebel - there are no such stupid people in Bianliang City, right?! ”

The Great Song Dynasty did not have Tianbo Yang Mansion? …… It seems that this is the case, except for China, I have not heard of a second person in China who dares to call himself "Tianbo"...... There is a person in the Water Margin who calls himself the "Heavenly King" and is called a traitor, but those people are really traitors. Song Jiang is nicknamed "Hu Baoyi", and he is called Zhongyi, can loyal ministers use "Tian" as a name?

I've been deceived again!

What is the world?

Zhao Xing was very puzzled, he desperately recalled, remembering that Yang Yanzhao seemed to be a real person, and hurriedly added: "I mean the Yang family general, are Yang Yanzhao's descendants still there?" ”

"How can Yang Yanzhao be called the Yang family general?" Zhou Bangyan looked down on Zhao Xingdi's ignorance a little, he couldn't help but smile and replied: "The Yang family will be the title of the Sui Dynasty, referring to the Yang Su family." As for Yang Yanzhao's descendants, I have heard that his third son Yang Wenguang has a son named Yang Jin. ”

Zhao Xing asked urgently: "Where is he?" ”

"Passed away. You should know that his father Yang Yanzhao has a master-apprentice relationship with Fan Zhongyan, and he himself was born in the same Jinshi, and Ouyang Wenzhong (Ouyang Xiu) was promoted in the same year, and had close contacts with Erhan (Han Qi and Han Wei), and had poetry and literary correspondence with Sima Xianggong (Sima Guang), Wang Jinggong (Wang Anshi), and Ru Shizizhan. Zhou Bangyan replied.

"Ah, dead!" Zhao Xing was full of disappointment. The Great Song Dynasty did not have Tianbo Yang Mansion to return to the rule, and the legend said that he served the Yong Yang family general, and in the fourth generation, he became a literati, without She Taijun, without Mu Guiying, and without the widow of Yangmen.

The real history is chilling.

"Last?" Zhao Xing's question was full of loss. Legend has it that the Yang family is "particularly capable of giving birth" and can be regarded as the commander of the superborn army in the Song Dynasty...... Sure enough, the things educated by the foolish people are understood in reverse, and the truth must be: his family is "particularly unable to give birth" and is on the verge of extinction.

"Nope. Yang Ji died in the seventh year of Jiayou, and his wife, who had just been married for two years, left him with a son of only eight months, named Yang Zuren. Before his death, Yang married his sister to Zhang Jingru, and after his death, his sister helped erect the monument and raised the child Zuren with the 24-year-old Gong.

Gong's teaching is well-taught, Yang Zuren came to the capital two years ago to take the imperial examination, and he was 23 years old. Han Xianggong put it out as the main book - what, the people want to find him? Which county is he in, and I will go to the Ministry of Officials to check? ”
