[I was delayed yesterday, sorry. This is the first update, and there will be more after that. 】

Wang Shu dismounted in front of the house, but did not throw the reins to his companion and walked into the house, but stood at the door, and it was his companion who entered the door.

An old man came out in a hurry, with gray hair but no beard, and he knew that he was a palace attendant by looking at his clothes.

When the old man saw Wang Xu, he greeted him, and saluted with a straight look, but his tone was lukewarm: "The horse is back." ”

Wang Shu glanced at him and ignored him.

The old chamberlain didn't care about him, and spoke to himself, "The princess took Da Lang into the palace today." Wait a minute, the princess will be back soon. ”

"Wait for her?" Wang Shu sneered, "I entered the palace for three days and two days, and I don't know what to complain about!" ”

"How could a princess be like this? The colt misunderstood. ”

Wang Shu snorted heavily, and his nasal voice was full of disdain: "Misunderstanding?!" ”

The old chamberlain didn't explain much, the grievances between the princess and the concubine, it is impossible for the subordinate to be too talkative, and bowed his head and said: "If the concubine has any instructions, you can instruct the old slave." ”

"I can't afford it." Wang Shu said coldly: "You better serve your eldest princess well." ”

"No, the old slave understands." The old chamberlain bowed his head and promised, but Wang Xu's face became even more gloomy.

Since the princess of Shu married the Wang family, the relationship between Wang Shu and her has been tense. Even the palace maids and chamberlains brought by the princess of Shu also had no good impression of Wang Xu.

Wang Shu was originally a free and prodigal character, if he married the daughter of an ordinary official, he could barely respect each other. As his wife's housekeeper, Wang Shu played outside - many children of rich and noble families lived such a life.

But if it was Princess Shang, she was restrained everywhere, and Qinglou couldn't go, and it was even more impossible to go to recruit prostitutes with friends from wine and meat, so Wang Xu's resentment was sprinkled on the princess of Shu. Later, he even deliberately made love to the concubine in front of the princess, leaving the princess aside to watch.

This matter was reported by the princess's nurse, and Wang Shu was immediately driven out of the capital in the name of serving the lord, and the concubine was also cleared out of the house. It's just that the Son of Heaven was angry for his sister, but he broke the Gangchang Festival, which caused a lot of criticism in the court, and the princess of Shu also interceded for Wang Xu. Soon after, Wang Shu was recalled to Jingzhong.

But after Wang Shu returned to Beijing, the relationship between the couple did not improve. It's always been just a superficial harmony. When Ci Shengguang offered Cao to the immortals, the princess of Shu took the opportunity to dismiss Wang Xu's singing and dancing class at home, and since then, the relationship between the husband and wife has completely broken down, and even the apparent harmony cannot be maintained.

Half a year ago, Wang Xuxinna's concubine made a mistake at home, and was cried by the princess and Queen Taishang, so she was directly ordered to leave the house. Wang Shu was so angry that he simply didn't go home and lived in a foreign house. I came back today to get something.

Wang Xu stood in front of the door and stopped talking, and the old chamberlain stood with him. Others didn't dare to make a move, let alone make a noise. Everyone stood solemnly, as if they didn't know anything. In front of the mansion of the eldest princess of Shu, it was quiet for a while as if it was late at night.

After a quarter of an hour, the companion who had been sent in to fetch something finally came out. He had several books in his hand and carefully held them to his chest.

Seeing the companion, Wang Xu's tense body finally relaxed, and took two steps forward: "Found it?" ”

"San Lang, do you think it?" As he spoke, he handed the scroll in his hand to Wang Xu.

Wang Shu took it and flipped through it, took out one of the volumes, and handed back the other copies to his companion, "This is it." ”

He put the scroll into his bosom, then turned and mounted his horse and walked away, and when he put the book in his hand into the saddle behind his mount, he also mounted his horse and followed closely behind.

Seeing Wang Shu go away, the old chamberlain sighed and turned back to the mansion.

This pair of heavenly resentful couples can't even respect each other like guests, and they can't help as the emperor's brothers-in-law, and they can't do anything except sigh.

After leaving the house, Wang Shu walked through the city for half an hour, and finally came to a courtyard on the edge of the outer city near the city wall.

Just looking at the appearance, it looks like a common rich family's residence. There is no smell of fat powder from Qinglou outside. Compared with the ordinary Qinlou Chu Pavilion, it is like an ordinary house. In terms of nature, the prostitutes inside do not enter the workshop, and according to the words at this time, they are private children.

If you are not familiar with the road and there is no acquaintance to guide you, you will have to go around a few more times if you want to come over, and you will even get lost. However, the location of this private cave is hidden, but in fact, it is still very famous in the capital, and there are many guests who come and go. The location is located in a quiet alley, not for the sake of quietness, but to be more appealing to guests. Nowadays, there are many guests who are greedy for the quietness here, and when they come here, they even leave just to eat and drink, and enjoy the music, and do not stay overnight.

When Wang Shu came in, the table had already been set up in the room, and the three friends were waiting inside, but there were none

"Jin Qing."

"Jin Qing, you're late. It's just waiting for you to take your seat. ”

"Jin Qing, this time I'm going to be punished for drinking."

Wang Xu's friends all knew about his situation, and they didn't call him by the name of a horse. If anyone mentions a colt to his face, he will be able to turn his face when he lands. Therefore, no matter whether it is close or not, it is a friend, and everyone calls his cousin.

In front of his friends, Wang Shu also changed his previous coldness and smiled. After being served by the little maid and taking off his coat, Wang Shu sat down and handed over the scroll in his hand.

"This is the new collection of the Sushes?" One of them took it, took it and looked through it.

Another person leaned over from the side and looked: "I only feel bad breath when I read many crooked poems such as that." It's still Zizhan's poems. ”

"What, how many more have you reviewed today?"

"There are hundreds of articles, and I can't wait to snap my eyes."

"So bad?" Wang Xuha laughed.

Since the publication of the "Nature" of Qi Science in the world, the "Jingyi" of Chengmen Taoism has been in full swing to prepare for publication. Under Su Shi's auspices, the publication of a new periodical, mainly poetry, has been discussed for a long time among the scribes in the capital.

Because the number of scholars who love poetry and literature far exceeds that of Jingyi and nature. In a short period of time, thousands of manuscripts of poems have been sent to several initiators, and they are still growing every day. Although the title of this journal has not even been decided so far, the influence of Shilin has long broken through the sky. If it weren't for the fact that the editorial department didn't have eyebrows, the poem manuscript would have drowned Wang Xu, Su Shi and others.

In this journal, Wang Shu is one of the editors of Neiding. The three people here, although they are only in charge of the first level, are also members of the editorial department.

With Han Gang and Su Song in front, the dignified Zaifu is willing to write to revise the article for others, and Wang Shu will not feel undignified. And when I see some works that are ridiculously clumsy, I always have an inexplicable pleasure when I draw a big hook on the paper with a red pen.

"Uh......" A person who was flipping through Su Shi's new episode suddenly burst out in surprise, pointed to one of them, and asked Wang Xu: "Jin Qing, this 'abbot immortal is slim, and he still loves Shuiyun Township' is really written by Sheren to Zhang Qi's privy?" ”

Wang Xuan leaned over and looked at it, and nodded: "Exactly." ”

The last time Zhang Dian was driven out of the capital because his father and his brother forcibly bought people's land, this poem was sent to him by Su Shi at that time.

"Won't it?"

The other two read the poem and looked equally shocked.

When he was born, he was almost thrown into the water and drowned because his father did not want to raise him, and there was some taboo in this regard, and no one would mention such things as drowning babies in front of him. However, the sentence 'the abbot immortal is slim, and he still loves Shuiyun Township' [Note 1] is clearly an allusion to Zhangdun's origin. Scolding people doesn't expose their shortcomings, hitting people doesn't slap their faces, even friends shouldn't say that. Didn't they even dare to call Wang Shu a colt?

"It's just a trivial matter, why worry about it, you still can't get it." Wang Shu shook his head: "Today, the seventh privy of Zhang Qi will come forward to invite guests, so Zizhan will not come." ”

As he spoke, he smiled mysteriously again, and then whispered, "Han San will also arrive." ”

The three of them were shocked again when they heard this.

One of them whispered, "...... Is that Han San?! ”

"Which other Han San could it be? The one who made the Xuanhui envoy! Can you still hire the one who will be the prime minister? ”

Han Jiang is also ranked third, but he is respected by Delong, but no one calls him that. Now in Shilin, the person who calls Han San refers to one person.

"What the hell is going on?!"

Han Gang and Su Shi did not agree, which was not a secret in the capital.

In the incident where Han Gang and the two kings competed for the Oiran, Su Shi did not play a good role. Moreover, in several elephant sheds in the capital, miscellaneous dramas after the characters have been pseudonymized are being played every three or five times.

Now that the parties are still in Beijing, everyone can see that Han Gang and Su Shi have no communication. It was impossible for any one in the capital to be so confused as to invite Han Gang and Su Shi as guests at the same time—if they could invite them.

Wang Xue said: "I heard that it was because the plum blossoms were blooming, so Zhang Shumi was interested and invited a few friends to drink." There happened to be Han Sanxuanhui and Zizhan. ”

“…… Enjoying plum blossoms and drinking wine, you should be composing poems, right?! ”

Wang Shu smiled slightly: "Of course." ”

"Isn't Zhang Qi's privy councillor really trying to see the Su She people being hated by Han Xuanhui?"

"No, I'm just going to mediate." Wang Shu denied.

Which person in the capital is willing to offend a major minister for no reason, or is it of Han Gang's level? And with the friendship between Zhang Han and Zhang Su, Zhang Dian would not deliberately make Han Gang and Su Shi ugly.

"Just mediation? But Han Xuanhui's character ......, "one person shook his head with a sigh."

Han Gang's character is unknown to everyone in the world, even the Son of Heaven has never backed down half a step in person, let alone Su Shi.

Wang Shu said: "It was Han San who took the initiative to ask Zhang Qi to be a middleman. Before, because of He Zhu's matter, he did not do it properly, so he could only talk to Zizhan in private. ”

The three of them nodded when they heard this, and it made sense.

Han Gang's previous insistence on the punishment of He Zhu caused public anger, and there were quite a few complaints in Shilin. Many people around the three felt that Han Gang was too harsh on literary scholars and had lost the respect he deserved. Looking at it now, Han Gang himself must have known that he was at a loss, so he looked for Su Shi in private.

After all, he didn't pay attention.

Just as Wang Xuan was discussing behind his back, Han Gang arrived at the gate of Zhang Dan's mansion.

Zhang Yuan came out to greet him, and after entering the door, Zhang Dian greeted him again,

"Is Han Gang late?"

"No, Zizhan has just arrived."

Note 1: Historically, in the eighth year of Xining, Zhang Dian came out of Huzhou, and Su Shi's poem was written at that time, and one of the sentences of the abbot immortal was a joke about the origin of Zhang Dan.

Although some people in later generations believed that this poem was the reason why Zhang Dian hated Su Shi. But from the perspective of time, a few years later, in the Wutai poetry case in the second year of Yuanfeng, Zhang Dian spared no effort to rescue Su Shi, and even reprimanded Prime Minister Wang Qi in person for him, which shows that he did not take this matter to heart.

After that, Su Shi was demoted to Huangzhou, until the death of Shenzong in the eighth year of Yuanfeng, and he had Hongxin correspondence with Zhang Dian. One of them also lamented that in addition to Su Zhe, who had been admonishing him in the past, there was only Zhang Dian - 'usually only Zihou and Zi Youji have spoken and repeatedly suffered'.

But when Empress Dowager Gao died of illness, Zhezong was in charge of the government, and Zhang Dian returned to Beijing, he immediately demoted Su Shi to Lingnan, and then further demoted him to Hainan Island. and when he rescued Su Shi, they were judged to be the same.

It can be seen that the relationship between the two was after the change of Yuanyou began and Su Shi was reactivated; Zhezong was pro-government, and Zhang Dian returned to Beijing to govern, presiding over the denunciation of the old party. That is, the years when Empress Dowager Gao was in power, and Zhang Dian and other new parties were constantly suppressed. It's a pity that what happened is not for future generations to know the specific reasons for it.
