Chapter Ninety-Four: Questioning
It didn't take long for the hoofs of several carriages to break the silence of the early morning, and drove in all directions, leaving a string of bells, and the errand guards who guarded the door but were prepared, naturally did not dare to stop them, and let them go.
After a bustle, the street returned to quiet, and gradually, residents, business travelers, and pedestrians poured into the city, and the street slowly became lively, however, the area around the post station was as calm as ever.
In the post room, the copper stove was burning with precious spices, light white light smoke, half-floating in the air, instantaneous, several people knelt relatively during the banquet, but did not speak, just carefully read the Chinese chapter of the hand, sometimes appreciative, sometimes sigh.
"Brother Meng, how is it?"
"It has the style of ancient literature, but it is a pity that it lacks elegance and symmetry."
"Very much." The crowd agreed.
"It's normal to be young and young, and there is no expert to guide you, and the article lacks talent." Master Yan smiled and said: "With practice, you can naturally improve, but the idea of the article is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, which is commendable." ”
The writing of the puppet Lizao won the love of the scholars, and was promoted, and the writing of the puppet was promoted to the field of various compositions such as recitals, arguments, official documents, letters, etc., to know that at this time, there was no so-called ancient literary movement, poetry and articles, and it was still the world of the puppet body.
In the past two or three hundred years, although some people have realized the shortcomings of the pun script, they have tried to forcibly reform the style from the perspective of political utilitarianism and administrative means, but they have not succeeded, because the imperial examinations in the Sui and Tang dynasties were all written in the pun script, which naturally contributed to the popularity of the pun style.
Yu Shinan and Yan Shiyou, who have lived in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, have been deeply influenced by the Southern Dynasty's prose, and have become a habit, and the literati of the Northern Dynasties tend to admire the literary style of the Southern Dynasties, which is also a long-term atmosphere.
However, although Han Rui's article is lacking, the far-reaching intention still makes everyone fall for it.
"Indeed, being able to write poetry and writing has extraordinary potential, just like jade, if it is not carved and made to exude luster, it is like a pearl covered with dust, which is regrettable." Yu Shinan agreed.
"Duke Yu, Han Rui is from Yangzhou." Master Yan suddenly emphasized.
Yu Shinan nodded and smiled: "They both belong to Jiangnan, and they are originally a family." ”
"Yu Gongji is bad, Yangzhou belongs to Huainan Road." Meng Dongming said.
"I'm talking about ancient Yangzhou, not today's Jiangdu." Yu Shinan said leisurely: "Speaking of which, Yan Xuezheng is not from Yangzhou......"
If it is light, Yu Shinan, who is a relict of the Southern Chen Dynasty, is naturally a little smarter, Yan Shiyou and others are speechless, watching each other, and secretly slandering someone's brazenness.
"Duke Yu, can you raise your noble hand for the sake of the same Nan Chen lineage."
Unlike Yan Shiyou, whose ancestral home is Shandong, Meng Dongming, who has settled in Yangzhou for generations, opened his mouth, and the weight is naturally different, the so-called Nanchen lineage refers to the fact that Yu Shinan and Meng Dongming once served in the Chen Dynasty, and they can be regarded as colleagues, and later the Chen Dynasty perished, Yu Shinan was attached to the Sui Dynasty, but Meng Dongming chose to go into hiding, everyone has their own ambitions, and naturally it is impossible to talk about whose choice is more correct.
However, according to the judging standards of the Confucian scholars, in the minds of some Jiangnan scholars, Meng Dongming's virtue is obviously slightly better than Yu Shinan.
Now, knowing that Meng Dongming didn't mean to embarrass himself, Yu Shinan could only smile bitterly: "Since Brother Meng said this, how dare I disobey." ”
Realizing that there was irony in his words, Meng Dongming hurriedly shook himself to accompany the crime, and the open-minded Yu Shinan naturally didn't care, smiled, waved his hand and laughed at himself: "It's okay, I have been a minister who has died many times, and I have lived so far, how can I be afraid of ridicule." ”
Everyone admired, and Master Yan smiled and said: "The ancestors of the family are in Liang, Qi, and Zhou, and finally Sui, and when you count it, the number of people who have died is better than that of Duke Yu." ”
In the era of war and chaos, there was never a greasy minister's speech, otherwise if you calculate it carefully, Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, how could he not be the greasy minister of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, to put it bluntly, and today's Confucian scholars believe in Mencius's sentence, the king regards the minister as a mustard, and the minister regards the king as a hater.
After achieving the goal, after a few hustle and bustle, Yan Shiyou and others said goodbye and left, Yu Shinan got up to see each other off, made an appointment to meet again, and returned to the hall, but met Han Rui.
His head was sore and swollen, it was the sequelae of a night wine hangover, Han Rui rubbed his forehead vigorously, and when he saw Yu Shinan's figure, he hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Yu Gong, good morning." ”
"Awake?" Yu Shinan smiled kindly.
A little embarrassed, Han Rui bowed again: "I didn't return from a drunk sleep last night, I was disturbed a lot, please don't blame Gong Yu." ”
"It's okay, the post station, as the name suggests, nothing else, but there are a lot of guest rooms, and you can still be contained." Yu Shinan smiled lightly, summoned the messengers, and served meals.
"Yu Gong ......" Han Rui wanted to resign.
"Don't be formal, after the meal, the old man still has something to ask you." Yu Shinan said.
After hesitating, Han Rui ate at a speed that was neither fast nor slow, then cleaned his hands, knelt down on Yu Shinan's head, and said softly: "Please ask Yu Gong to ask, the kid will definitely know everything." ”
His eyes swept over the appreciation, Yu Shinan seemed to be a little excited, secretly took a breath, and said in a deep voice: "Your name is Han Rui, but you live in Hanjia Village, ten miles in the eastern suburbs?" ”
"Exactly." Han Rui replied, his eyes were not much surprised, but a touch of surprise appeared.
"In Hanjia Village, is there a person named Yu Hui?" Yu Shinan asked, his expression calm, but the hands that touched his knees trembled slightly.
Han Rui shook his head without hesitation, and in Yu Shinan's shocked gaze, he whispered: "Hanjia Village, there are many people with the surname Han, and there are only a few miscellaneous surnames, or Tie, or Chen ......, there is absolutely no person with the surname Yu, but ......"
Han Rui replied in the affirmative, Yu Shinan looked lost, suddenly became uplifted again, and said urgently: "But what? ”
"There is a housekeeper in the boy's family, named Hao, but with the surname Han." Han Rui said.
"What does it look like, what kind of background it is, where does it come from, and why did you become your housekeeper......" Yu Shinan couldn't sit still, and asked in a trembling voice, tears of surprise appeared in his pale eyes.
Han Rui told the truth, and at the end, he was curious: "Gong Yu, is Uncle Hao the person you are looking for?" ”
"The first year of Wude ......, the time difference is not far away, it should be ...... Let's see if that's what he looks like. Yu Shinan pinched his fingers and calculated, his face flashed with excitement, and suddenly took out a tube shaft from his arms and gently unfolded it, but it was a portrait.
Han Rui looked down, but saw that the painting was a middle-aged man, with a beautiful beard, handsome appearance, jade crown and brocade clothes, should be a prince and nobleman, except for the beard and clothes, there are seven or eight points similar to Han Hui, as long as he dresses up a little, it is simply an appearance, but what surprised Han Rui the most was the name of the person in the corner of the portrait
