Entering the hall is just "entering the hall", and you have to enter the inner room to "enter the room", but the maid will not leave when she walks here, she is just a maid in the room, she is not a personal maid, and she can't enter the inner room when she is idle.

"Young master, please come in, young grandma is waiting for you in the room." The maid lowered her eyebrows, and Wu Nong's soft words made people fall.

Liu Xu replied softly, his attention grabbing at a rapid sound of pipa.

The voice came from the inner chamber, and it seemed to rush down from the nine heavens, sweeping across the earth with the power of thunderbolt. Savor it carefully, there are the sound of golden drums, the sound of saber rattling, the roar of war, the neighing of horses, the sound of dying struggles, and the strangest thing is that these sounds are intertwined and natural, but the listener can distinguish each sound from it, and there is absolutely no confusion.

It is the ancient song "Ambush on All Sides", and it is not like "Ambush on All Sides", but there is a kind of resentment in this earth-shattering killing sound.

If everything is uneven, it will sound, and this ancient song has a kind of uneven atmosphere between the sound of the strings.

Liu Xu simply stopped and listened, he had often participated in ancient music recitals in his previous life, but he had never heard this kind of pipa sound.

The voices soon died away, followed by a short, long silence. Liu Xu didn't speak, he just held his breath and waited quietly for the performer to do something.

A burst of singing sounded, this song is quite similar to "Chu Ci", with the resentment of vanilla beauties, it should be a Chu folk song; There is a miserable and heroic chant that slowly fills the entire space, and it is sung with the resentful and desolate sound of the beauty, this is the overlord and Yu Ji, and then there is the sound of pursuit, shouting and killing, the sound of the overlord's beheading, and the sound of the Han army's refuyi, which is obviously the music played by the pipa, but it seems to have some kind of magic power, and it will pull people back to the battle of Wujiang two thousand years ago. In Russia, all the voices passed away, only King Xiang killed himself, a crisp sound, startled a group of flies, and finally ended with the sound of the Han army fighting for corpses.

Liu Xu didn't know when he was conquered by this voice, let alone when he came back to his senses from his fantasy, he only knew that he had burst into tears when he came back to his senses.

Jiangnan talent is so prosperous? How can a mere gentleman woman have such an amazing skill?

Liu Xu gently wiped the corners of his eyes with the handkerchief he carried with him, he didn't want to show weakness in front of the woman who had conquered him with music before they met.

"Young grandma, please come in." It was the voice of a maid, and the main master had not made any sound after the performance.

Liu Xu tidied up his clothes and walked into the inner room.

Mrs. Chen is not a particularly beautiful woman, at least in the eyes of people like Liu Xu who have read countless people. She is probably a typical Chinese woman, with a goose egg face, small eyes, light moth eyebrows, red lips, fair complexion, and no calluses on her hands on the table except for her fingers.

She wears a mustache on her head, with a silver wire net, and a gemstone decoration on the front, which looks extremely luxurious, in addition, she also has a gold-inlaid jade Guanyin hairpin on her head, wearing a brocade jacket with a smoke and fire back pattern, and gold and red crested high-soled shoes on her feet, although I don't know how much these clothes are, but it is estimated that they are also a "private custom" category in later generations, and one can be exchanged for food and clothing for a middle-class family for a year.

Although Mrs. Chen's dress and appearance are extremely skillful, and she is more or less a beauty, Liu Xu is vigilant: her lips are tightly pursed, her eyebrows are slightly raised, and there is an extreme confidence in her eyes, and this confidence is covered by her deliberate affinity, so that almost everyone who sees her can't help but admire, "Sure enough, graceful and luxurious, she is the style of an official lady and a lady!" ”

Liu Xu said softly in his heart that it was not good, he had seen a few such women, although he could not say that all of them were heroes among women, but none of them were easy to deal with, if they were left in modern times, most of them would be strong women in the workplace and iron ladies in politics.

In the Ming Dynasty, there were two things that must be done after the examination: change your name and marry a child. This Liu Xu is twenty-two years old and has no son, and he didn't marry a concubine after being admitted to the juren, thinking that his wife is too powerful.

Liu Xu thought very quickly, and did a psychological analysis of his cheap wife in a flash, and then caught a glimpse of a piece of paper that Chen had placed on the table, the ink on it had not dried, obviously not long after writing.

The camel is easy to sentence, and the breeze is talented.

The dragon spring wall sounds, and the jade hairpin is buried in the snow.

wanted to tell about his life, but he sighed and didn't laugh.

Raise a glass to invite the moon to drink, and the long whistle does not stop the cup (as a "breaking" sound).

Liu Xu gently sang this ancient poem, sat on the open-carved rose embroidery pier beside his wife, and shouted in his heart.

Zhao Mingcheng and Wang Ningzhi have no skills, they are not as famous as their wives in history, and the last two sentences are faintly expressed in Lu You's poems.

Liu Xu searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, but he still didn't expect that there was a female poet surnamed Chen in the history of the late Ming Dynasty.

"Although the lady's poem is not written enough, it is full of vigor and vigor, and it is quite a legacy of the Han and Tang dynasties, very good, very good." Liu Xu didn't think of how to deal with the poetess for a while, so he had to take out the words and talk about it.

The so-called "thousands of wears, sycophants don't wear", although I don't like to fall in love, but I still have a hand in fooling people.

"Poetry and writing little Doyle, can't afford to be praised. It's just that Xianggong didn't hear that 'the Son of Heaven is heroic, and the article teaches Er Cao', this fame still has to be won in the field. Mrs. Chen turned her head, looked at Liu Xu with a pair of beautiful eyes, and slowly spoke. She didn't speak fast, and every word was very clear, giving people an unquestionable feeling: "I heard people say that my husband has only slept in the study these days, and he only writes a eulogy every day, but don't forget to review the Bagu Shiwen."

Finished! Liu Xu shouted in his heart, although he was more or less a high-level intellectual, with a doctorate in history from an American university, he had a specialization in art, and he had never studied how to write a Bagu essay. What's more serious is that he doesn't engage in intellectual history, the Four Books and Five Classics are also finished by reading, and the electronic version can be checked if you want to check, and the university can still memorize it, but "Analects" and "Mencius" can only read and not memorize, how can he compete with the Ming Dynasty scholars who studied hard in the cold window?

Fortunately, Liu Xu has a quick wit, and since he was born, no one has been able to hold him back with words.

"Hahaha!" Liu Xu laughed three times: "The lady has always boasted of her talents as Yi'an and Dao Yun, but I didn't expect to say such things today!" ”

Unexpectedly, the husband who was only willing to promise in the past would say such a thing, and a trace of doubt flashed in Mrs. Chen's eyes: "This way of the imperial examination has lasted for thousands of years since the Sui Dynasty, and it is the way for the country to take scholars, and the principle of the operation of heaven and earth. I don't know what Xianggong has today's opinions? ”

Although she kept saying that it was "Gao Jian", there was no trace of doubt in Mrs. Chen's tone, obviously this guy was a stupid child who read and read before, and even his wife looked down on him.

But then again, a wife who can write such verses is not something that ordinary people can bear.

Liu Xu waved his hand for the maid to guard at the door, sighing while slowly wording: "Let me ask the lady, what era is this?" ”

"Today is the eighth day of the seventh year of the Apocalypse (Note 1)." Mrs. Chen's tone was flat.

When Liu Xu used to read the history of the Ming Dynasty, what he hated the most was the Ganzhi Chronicle Law, which was not right in the end, and in the end, he probably had to beg his sister and sister with a dead face, but he finally knew that Emperor Chongzhen had just succeeded to the throne for a few days.

"I'm not asking you what day is today, I'm asking you, what era is this?" Liu Xu's tone was calm and powerful, and there was a hint of thought-provoking meaning in his eloquent speech, which was his unique skill to fool people.

"Era?" Mrs. Chen's tone was a little puzzled: "The Book of Song and Lizhi I has a record that 'the situation of the Three Kingdoms is Dingzhi, from the Jin Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, the times have changed, and each has its own affairs. I just don't know what the word "era" means? ”

Liu Xu secretly said that he is really a heroine among women, and even a book like "Lizhi" that few people read can come with his mouth open. However, this did not shake his determination to fool his wife.

"No, my time is not what you call it." Liu Xu once again denied Madame's words, he paused, and said, "How big can your eyes see?" ”

"The concubine has very good eyesight since she was a child, and she can raise her eyes to the sun without feeling dizzy."

After a long time, Liu Xu was shocked by his wife again - this is Cai Jing and Prime Minister Cai Cheng's unique skill.

The ancients regarded the sun as the representative of the monarch and power, and ordinary people raised their eyes to the sun for a few moments and cried to communicate, but Cai Jing was able to raise his eyes to see the sun, which shows that his talents and energy are the best choice. It's just that since he dares to raise his eyes to look at the sun, he naturally dares to bully the king, and Cai Jing finally brought disaster to the country and the people, and flattered the superiors and bullied the subordinates, which is not unrelated to this kind of character.

His wife's talent is too strong and her personality is outstanding, which puts Liu Xu under a lot of pressure.

Fortunately, those who are capable of pyramid schemes have excellent psychological quality, Liu Xu smiled lightly: "The lady can raise her eyes to see the sun, naturally she has excellent eyesight, but how big can she see?" One mile, two miles, or ten miles? ”

"If it's flat land, three or five miles is the limit, and if you climb the platform, you can see more than ten miles." Chen began to find the conversation interesting, and the corners of her mouth curved slightly, which was a sign of her excellent mood.

Today's husband is very manly.

"Madame's eyesight is outstanding, and she only sees ten miles and eight miles, but my husband has seen thousands of miles!" Liu Xu Huoran stood up, walked around the house, and said in an impassioned tone: "Foolish men and foolish women in the countryside can see three or five miles, but they only collect firewood and farm all day long, and they are born, old, sick and die, and they can't get rid of a cycle of life and death in their lives; The local gentry can see hundreds of miles, know how to cultivate and read heirlooms, gain fame, and pass on a family business to future generations; Monarchs and virtuous ministers can shine a candle for thousands of miles, know that light servitude, thin endowment, pro-gentleman, far villain, can open up a big piece of the country - but, 'the fungus does not know the obscurity, the cockroach does not know the spring and autumn' in my opinion, they are all rats' eyes, and they are inseparable from the land of China! ”

Chen's beautiful eyes revealed a divine light that she had never seen before, her tone trembled slightly, and she asked softly, "May I ask where Xianggong saw?" ”

"Where do I see?" Liu Xu asked himself gently, and then replied loudly: "I have seen the entire universe!" Without waiting for his wife to ask, he immediately spoke: "In the north, the original Jurchens and savages from all over the country have formed a tribal group, from primitive fishing and hunting to fixed farming, and in the south, the Ming soldiers and horses are strong and trade with each other, once the Ming system is corrupt and the army is weakened, they will go south to plunder, which is called ' In the west, the once powerful Ottoman Turkish Empire grew stronger and stronger under the leadership of Emperor Suleiman the Magnificent, pressing Spain in the west and Safavid in the east, and its national strength was not half a point weaker than the Ming Empire; further west, several small European countries had begun to make great geographical discoveries, and explorers had traveled thousands of miles to discover a much larger land than the Ming Dynasty, and they had found South America, North America, India, seized countless gold and silver, and established a fleet that was 100 times stronger than our Ming naval division, and now occupied the South Seas, Macao, Yizhou's Francophile is their collective name! ”

Liu Xu said so many words in one breath, and slowly walked to Chen, condescending, his eyes looked directly at the woman's beautiful eyes: "Let me ask you, this is a world of great contention, all the countries in the world are raising troops to attack, to open a big foundation, all kinds of fresh utensils from the South Seas, competing for beauty, dizzying, seeing that it is a situation that has not changed for 10,000 years, but you want me to bury my head in the field, Hao Shou is poor, to be a moth in the pile of books, the emperor is unconscious?" ”

Speaking of the last sentence, Liu Xu's tone was already extremely harsh, his words were almost rebellious, if Chen showed the slightest intention to denounce him, he would definitely take the lead to eliminate the hidden danger.

Chen's eyes widened, she never thought she would hear such words from her husband's mouth. She is different from other women, she also pays more attention to current affairs on weekdays, and naturally knows that the military affairs in the north are corrupt, but she has no theoretical guidance and does not understand why the dignified Ming Dynasty has lost consecutive battles and lost to a group of barbarians who have no iron weapons, and now after listening to her husband's words, she faintly feels that a door is open to herself.

Chen Yingying bowed, and her tone was full of admiration and praise: "The concubine and the husband have been married for five years, but they don't know that the princess swallows the whole sea, which is the sin of the concubine!" After a pause, she sighed again: "In the past, the king of Chuzhuang did not sing for three years, and he was a blockbuster, and the concubine used to think that extraordinary people must always have something extraordinary, how could it be that he did not sing for three years without being known, but now it seems that the legend is true!" ”

Liu Xu said secretly because the buddy didn't cross over, of course this stupid boy didn't sing. However, to do a full set of plays, Liu Xu helped his wife up and said softly: "You and I are husband and wife, and our love is stronger than Jin, so you don't have to be so polite." A few years ago, I didn't succeed in my studies, I didn't finish my planning, and I didn't dare to confide in my heart easily, but now I have a big plan to discuss with you, and I can open my Liu family's foundation. ”

"The concubine is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses!" The woman replied in a firm voice, her voice calm and powerful, her eyes burning with fierce ambition.

Note 1: The author has never counted the days of the Ganzhi period, and the time in the book is roughly more than ten days after Chongzhen succeeded to the throne, please forgive me if there is any mistake!
