Chapter 182: Tang Cheng is drunk

Back at the inn, Laifu was looking for him in a hurry, Tang Cheng smiled and said that after he went out for a walk at will, he went back to the guest room first.

After eating lunch at noon and resting for a while, Tang Cheng took Laifu out of the inn.

After coming out, Tang Cheng went to the largest liquor store in Daozheng Fang, and when he heard Tang Cheng open his mouth, he bought the best Sanle pulp in this store, and he couldn't react for a while. Good guy, there are three or four such big urns, I'm afraid there are hundreds of catties? Not to mention drinking, even if it is used for bathing, it is surplus! "Big official, let's buy such a ...... Is so much wine dry? ”。

"Give it away", after saying casually, Tang Cheng signaled to the fortune club banknotes, and gave the owner of the wine shop an address, and he led people to send the four urns of wine here.

The owner of the cooking wine shop immediately smiled when he heard Tang Chengbao's address, "It turns out that this wine is going to Dr. He's mansion!" Although the big officials can rest assured, it is difficult to say in other places, and when it comes to Dr. He's mansion, the guys can't be wrong even if they close their eyes."

Is Ban familiar with Dr. He? Tang Cheng bought these wines to give to He Zhizhang of the four scholars of Wuzhong, and He Zhizhang's position at this time was Dr. Taichang, this boss only heard the name of the place, and made such a sentence, which really surprised Tang Cheng.

"Dr. He is a famous person with an official status, what position can Xiao Lao'er be familiar with him? However, the green plum wine produced in the little old wine shop is very familiar with Dr. He", the boss collected the account quickly, and said with a smile: "Different seasons eat different wines, and different wine shops also have different signature wines.

Close the bill. The boss handed it back to Laifu to make up for it, and continued with a smile: "There is no more right candidate for the big official, it is useless to go to see Dr. He with anything, it has to be wine!" Hehe, the big officials probably don't know, Dr. He's reputation for good wine spreads all over Chang'an, and every day when Yulu comes down, Dr. He doesn't do anything, he has to stare at the account room to calculate the family's monthly expenses, and leave enough money and food. The rest was sent to the liquor store. It has to be done every month, and only after that his boss has the heart to do something else."

Hearing the boss's words, Tang Cheng lost his voice and laughed. \ In the Tang Dynasty, Du Fu once had a famous "Song of the Eight Immortals in Wine", which described the eight celebrities in the best wine places in Chang'an City at that time, Li Bai, Zhang Xu, etc. were among them, and He Zhizhang was among the eight immortals.

"Zhizhang rides a horse like a boat, and his eyes fall asleep at the bottom of the well", because of the spread of this "Song of the Eight Immortals in Wine", it is because Tang Cheng knew that He Zhizhang was fond of alcohol when he was in college in later generations, but he didn't expect him to be good at drinking to this point. Staring at the account room with your own eyes to calculate the cost. This is obviously because he is afraid that the accounting office will not carefully calculate the amount of use, which will cause him to suffer a loss of wine money.

This old man was thirty-six years old when he first made the pilgrimage to the Jinshi in the fourth year of the pilgrimage, and he was just half a hundred years old this year, and a fifty-year-old famous poet was lying in the account room and withholding the wine money with the bookkeeper, just thinking of this picture in his mind. Tang Chengcheng couldn't help but laugh again.

He Zhizhang's originally written image in Tang Cheng's mind suddenly came alive, and later generations summed up his person with the word crazy, and this statement was indeed incisive.

The wine urn was loaded with the donkey cart in the wine shop, and Tang Cheng hired a foot to go to He Zhizhang's mansion with the donkey cart.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of He Zhizhang's mansion, after seeing the head of the guy driving the donkey cart, he immediately grinned and greeted him. "Liu Heipi, I heard that you were very arrogant last night, and you wrapped Chunniang in Pingkangfang Mengyunlou all night. Do you still have the strength to deliver wine today? Could it be that the body is weak and afraid that people will know, so he makes this blind work."

"Ma Er, you can't be a turtle son, Lao Tzu hasn't stopped since he entered Chun Niang's room last night, **** eight hundred wen, Lao Tzu will play tricks and waste flowers?" , The head of the guy in this wine shop is obviously very familiar with the pockmarked porter in He Zhizhang's house. Speaking of Chun Niang, the head of the guy was really red and his eyes were shining, "Besides, Chun Niang's skin and flesh, the second tail has to stand up to the sky." Now it's always a little old, but I also went to Mengyunlou flower card back then."

Listening to the two of them talking about the addiction of the old prostitute, Tang Cheng, who got out of the car, coughed lightly twice.

The coughing sound pulled the guy leader back from his state of excitement, and after the guy head turned sideways and smiled at Tang Cheng, he turned his face and waved his hand and said, "Ma Er, don't talk about this yet, open the door and let me bring the wine in."

"When did my lord buy so much wine?". Listening to the cough, Mazi also smiled on his face. Although he was asking the head of the guy, his eyes fell on Tang Cheng on the side.

"These urns of good Sanle pulp are the place where this Tang official sent Dr. He." When the leader of the guys said this, without waiting for Tang Chengshi's eyes, the clever Laifu had already handed Tang Cheng's famous thorn to Ma Er.

Who knew that Ma Er, who was talking nonsense with the head of the guy just now, was stiff at this time, "I don't dare to worship the famous thorn of the guest", he didn't even receive the famous thorn handed over by Laifu, let alone the report.

Hearing this, Tang Cheng is really angry, I don't want to fight anywhere, I damn it, isn't it just a doorman, it's like this! However, after all, there is a difference in identity, and there is an entourage of Laifu negotiating over there, and it is not good for him, the master, to casually intervene and make people laugh.

Hearing this, after Laifu was stunned for a while, his face not only did not change ugly, but he smiled like a flower, "Second brother, accommodating and accommodating", he shouted affectionately, and he did not slow out a ticket from his sleeve and stuffed it.

"Consistently! This is really not young and old", Ma Er handed it back as it was after holding the ticket in his hand, "But I can't afford it, please go back."

The money that has always been money is not less. Ma Er's performance of not entering oil and salt was really unexpected by Tang Cheng, and the head of the wine shop on the side was also anxious when he saw this, if the wine could not be delivered, he would naturally not be able to leave, not to mention that he was really afraid that Tang Cheng would have to withdraw the wine after going on like this, such a big business. He followed but let go of the wine, and when he went back, the boss had to clean him up with death.

"Ma Er, don't be embarrassed, sell my brother's face", without waiting for Laifu to say anything, the head of the guy on the donkey cart had already preemptively said: "Tang Daguan's intentions are sincere enough, Mazi, don't splint you."

"Brother Liu, do you think I have little money?" , The pockmarked porter smiled bitterly when he heard this, and turned to Tang Chengdao: "The master of the family has issued an order to seal the door." \ These days until the end of the Ministry of Science and Rites, all scholars who are invited to see in Confucian clothes are not allowed to report", at this point, Ma Er pointed to the donkey lane: "Especially with Lilly. It's not that I'm inconvenient, it's really inconvenient."

The door is clear, Tang Cheng understood after a little thought, thinking that there are too many scholars who have come to Beijing to take the examination these days, and these scholars have to do a lot of papers, so many people have to do a different job. But He Zhizhang, who is the fourth scholar of Wuzhong, must be unable to get around. After the toss of these two thousand people, He Zhizhang really couldn't stand it, so he had this door order.

And from this He Zhizhang's closing order, it can also be seen how fierce the competition in the current science and technology examination should be.

It was calculated that today was the time of the 10th Yamen holiday, but Tang Cheng didn't expect to encounter such a thing. For a while, Laifu and the guy didn't know what to say.

"Misunderstanding, so-and-so didn't come to the scroll." Tang Cheng took two steps forward and said with a smile: "After a long time, Tang Cheng, the secretary of the Yamen of the Shannan Dongdao Observation Envoy, came to visit Dr. He on the order of Lord Zhengyu, a Taoist scholar."

Speaking of this, Tang Cheng also smiled and pointed to the donkey lane full of wine: "This is what Lord Yu ordered."

That Laifu was really clever, and with Tang Cheng's words, he quickly stuffed the ticket returned by Ma Er again. The cooperation between the master and servant is tacit.

Knowing that there is such a stubble, then as for delaying for so long", he put the ticket into his sleeve, and after Ma Er smiled apologetically to Tang Cheng, he took the famous thorn in Fu's hand and turned around and walked inside.

After waiting for a while, when Tang Cheng turned his head to look at the layout of the street where He Mansion was located, he suddenly heard a loud voice with a smile behind him: "The difficulty of Shu Road, it is difficult to go to the blue sky in Shannan Tang Cheng is there."

Tang Cheng turned his head to look at the voice. I saw a red-faced man walking out of the side door, this person looked no more than forty years old, holding a piece of Taoist priests' commonly used scarf on his head, wearing a group shirt and wide-sleeved regular clothes, the regular clothes without a waist circumference on the Taoist folds and the front chest of the plot of wine stains are very obvious, and what is even more amazing is that the pair of casual shoes he is wearing on his feet is actually kicking and pulling, and after walking fast, he knocks out a "pop" sound on the ground. ^^^^

Since he first entered the Yunxi County Yamen, the Yamen people Tang Cheng came into contact with were all neatly dressed, and under the influence of this, he himself was also very careful about his clothes. But I have never seen such an official person as He Zhizhang.

Eyes watching. Tang Cheng was not slow at all, and walked over and bowed: "Tang Cheng of Houxue Shannan Dongdao pays a visit to Dr. He."

Is it Tang Cheng? After kicking and pulling the casual shoes, He Zhizhang casually waved the wide sleeves of his robe and returned the salute, and looked Tang Cheng up and down, "Yu weighed and didn't lie to me, sure enough, he just reached the age of a weak crown, and the future is terrifying, and the one who comes is better than today!" ”。

After speaking, after laughing, He Zhizhang waved his robe sleeves and said: "The last ou wine this afternoon has just been scalded, and the guests from afar are drinking, warming the wine and discussing poetry, and it is the right time to come!" go".

As He Zhizhang arrived at the flower hall, Tang Cheng saw that there were a few cups and plates in the hall, obviously He Zhizhang had been drinking since he ate at noon, and then he had been drinking until now.

"On weekdays, I eat at noon in the Yamen, and I can't eat alcohol when I eat. It's rare to have a ten-day holiday, just to feed the wine worms", for the messy appearance of the cups and plates in front of him, in front of Tang Cheng, the guest, He Zhizhang was not embarrassed at all, and after saying a word, he sat down with Tang Cheng and instructed his subordinates to quickly send some things for drinking.

After mentioning the warm wine and pouring the invitation to drink, Tang Cheng, who was a guest, took the wine pot and refilled the wine for the two of them, and the wine was drunk, and he picked up the bamboo on the side and knocked it on the wine buds.

"Shu Road Difficult"! The rhythm that He Zhizhang knocked out was "Shu Dao Difficult".

Just when Tang Cheng poured a full wine and put down the wine jar, he listened to the agitated singing and poetry in his ears and the rhythm of jingling suddenly rose:

The danger is high! The difficulty of Shu Road is difficult to go to the blue sky. ^^^^

He Zhizhang's sudden song and poem did not suppress the volume at all, and a breath of wine gushed out from his chest with the pride of this song and poem. There is no brewing process from low to high, and the feelings are brewing from subtle to unrestrained, and the Siming maniac He Zhizhang sings with wine, from the ground, "The drama is dangerous!" "From the very beginning, he was already full of pride, unrestrained and free to sway in the sonic boom house.

Compared with those professional singers, although He Zhizhang's sound quality is much inferior, he is both a madman and a wine fairy. is also a representative of the spirit of the Tang Dynasty, and it is difficult for any professional singer in the world to compare with Li Bai's understanding and grasp of the poetry and poetry of "Shu Dao Difficulty". It is this ancient masterpiece that has been sung by him with the most generous and desolate charm without the accompaniment of the musicians.

He Zhizhang's unrestrained feelings rushed up with the progress of the poem, and his voice became louder and louder, witnessing He Zhizhang's wildness, listening to the long song that fits the charm of this work, Tang Cheng felt that something was ignited in his heart, and when the singer sang this poem for the first time in Daya Zhizhengyuan, he could still calmly bear it at the moment.

After taking a big sip of the wine cup between his hands. Tang Cheng didn't even put down the wine, and his other hand had already picked up the bamboo and struck it in response to He Zhizhang's rhythm.

Holding it in his left hand and holding it in his right hand, Tang Cheng knocked on it, and at the same time played the volume and easy-going long song:

He is forty-eight thousand years old. It is not populated with Qinsai.

There is a bird road in Xidang Taibai, which can cross the top of Emei.

The earth collapsed and the mountain destroyed the strong man to death, and then the ladder stone stack was hooked together.

There is a high standard of six dragons returning to the sun, and there is a return to the river with a wave and a reversal.

Since the crossing, first forced by life, and then in pursuit of ideals. Most of the time living in the complicated yamen, Tang Cheng has never had such a moment when he didn't think about anything at the moment, and he was purely emotionally released, at this moment, he suddenly seemed to return to the days after graduating from college in the later life, and the scene of a bedroom person unscrupulously beating the rice bowl with an iron spoon and crying wolf.

There are no scruples, no limitations, put aside all constraints, and let pure emotions gush out. The louder the knock on his hand, the louder he sang in his mouth, the faster the emotion spurted, and the more relaxed and clean the whole heart and chest, when the last sentence was finally sung loudly, Tang Cheng couldn't help but shout: "Happy!" ”。

At the same time as he drank this sentence, He Zhizhang, who suddenly threw the bamboo in his hand, also drank the same sentence, and said in unison, after drinking, the old and the young looked at each other and laughed out loud.

"Good Tang Cheng. It's so enjoyable! ”。 Pointing at Tang Cheng laughing at the same time, He Zhizhang raised his head. The wine has been drunk again.

said that it was the last pot of wine, but Tang Cheng couldn't remember how much he drank that afternoon, and he seemed to have forgotten the purpose of coming, so he didn't mention anything about the citation of the scroll, just drank it in large quantities, and talked about the wine and poetry.

You are a look, I am a word, you are a sentence and I am a sentence, you sing and I sing, this afternoon, Tang Cheng, who is not crazy by nature, is like a madman, completely unleashing himself with He Zhizhang.

This afternoon was a madness that Tang Cheng had never felt in his later life, and it was also unprecedentedly close to his instinctive nature, and similarly, his entire body and mind also strongly felt the unprecedented relief and comfort after being completely released.

When another Ou wine was gone, when the sun outside the flower hall had already slanted to the setting sun, He Zhizhang, who was sitting a little crooked, raised his head, "Tang Cheng, if I am the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the current Kejin Shike Kui must be you", Tang Shi, it was the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of the imperial examination, and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites was the chief examiner of the rules.

Although the wine at this time is pressed, the degree is not high, but it is really unbearable to drink too much, now Tang Cheng has already blushed, and even the reaction is much slower than usual, hearing this, he smiled and said: "You will definitely be in the future, but not now."

"Yes, I'm not right now", He Zhizhang shook his head vigorously to make himself more sober, "so there is really a limit to what I can help you with this year's scientific expedition."

"There is not much difference in helping, it is boring for a friend to say this", drunk and full of drunkenness, Tang Cheng suddenly leaned forward with a red face, and lay on the table in front of him, and the knocked over wine bowl fell to the ground with a sound, and he didn't realize it, just stared at He Zhizhang with straight eyes, and said in a dry voice after drinking: "You say, are we friends, you say!" ”。

Seeing Tang Cheng's drunken and cute appearance, He Zhizhang couldn't help laughing for a while, and continued while laughing: "Zhang Chunjiang and I can only try our best to help you recommend poems, in the name of Guang poems, but Jinshike is too noble, and the quota is small. With the position of the two of us, I really can't push you to the high school gold list, Tang Cheng, if you want to win this subject, the key is still in the princess of Zhenguo Taiping."

"Since last year, the princess has worked a lot in Shilin, if you hear that there are poor scholars who are in need, they will give money and food, because they have a very good reputation in Shilin, and the main examiner's waiter of the Ministry of Rites was originally out of his door, so if you want to win this department, if you don't have a princess nodding your head, it is impossible, Tang Cheng, can you write it down?" , shook his head and tried his best to stay awake After saying this, but he didn't get a response for a long time, when He Zhizhang looked at Tang Cheng, he saw that he was lying on the table and had fallen asleep.

After praising the words with a child's heart, He Zhizhang turned his head and said loudly: "Come on, call the guests with the entourage."

When Laifu walked into the flower hall, his eyes almost popped out after seeing Tang Cheng, who was sleeping on the desk with a flushed face.

He and Tang Cheng have been for some time, and they have always known that their master is the most self-controlled, how could he have thought that he would also have the drunken appearance he has today.

Rao is He Zhizhang is known as the wine fairy, and after drinking it for most of the day, he is really about to die now, and after explaining what he just told Tang Cheng to Laifu again, he ordered his subordinates to send Tang Cheng back with his own car.

When Laifu and the people of the He Mansion set up Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng, who was shocked, opened his eyes that had been out of focus and looked at He Zhizhang blankly for a moment, and then said in a dry voice: "You will definitely be able to be a waiter in the Ministry of Rites in the future, you will definitely be able to!" ”。

Hearing this, with He Zhizhang, who was smiling, waved his hand, Laifu and Tang Cheng, who was wearing glasses and had closed them, walked out of the flower hall......
