Dark incense floats in the moon dusk.

Today's moon is still the same in the sky, but the source of the dark fragrance is the aroma of wine and rouge.

Although the conversation that is taking place is only between the four people, it is the ears of the people who can fall in.

Not only Chu Feng, but also other scholars suddenly realized that "fellow villagers try to be born" is like this, and serving people with calligraphy and painting is finally not the same as those who have become talented in reading.

Seeing this, everyone was gradually relieved of Chu Feng's discomfort and unconvincing.

Liu Zhengqing didn't feel sad, and even more Chu Feng was a little happier.

He knew that Chu Feng never did that kind of dead study, and if Chu Feng memorized the Four Books and Five Classics, studied policy articles to cope with the government exam, I was afraid it would kill him!

But calligraphy and painting are different, this is what Chu Feng loves very much, and it is what he is very good at. Fellow villagers tried to come from a hometown, and went to the royal painting academy to polish and study, which must be a happy and very meaningful thing for Chu Feng, and he Liu Zhengqing was naturally happy for Chu Feng.

At this moment, Liu Zhengqing's face was full of smiles.

"Chu Lang, the official family has been interested in expanding the academy in recent years, so they have selected virtuous talents across the country, you have this ability, and you are young. When you enter Beijing in the future, don't let the old man down. Lord Liu said with a smile, "If you go to the capital in the future, with the title of a 'fellow villager trying to get started', but you are a lot worse than everyone else, don't say that I am the one who is proud." That's a shame! ”

Chu Feng knew that it was just a joke, but there were also seven or eight points in it, so he didn't dare to be careless and bowed down.

Lord Liu nodded and said, "Okay, you go back first." This painting can be circulated for everyone, whether it is appreciated or criticized, it can be discussed with Chu Lang. Although you people are born in reading the Four Books and the Five Classics, even if you are officials, you must not work too hard, and you must always know a little bit about the elegance of calligraphy and painting. ”

Everyone in the audience hurriedly got up and agreed.

Chu Feng retreated into the crowd and sat down beside Liu Zhengqing again, but his mind was slightly confused.

Liu Zhengqing laughed and poured wine for Chu Feng, knocked him sideways on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You kid is really lucky!" Hanlin Painting Academy! That's the holy place in the hearts of you people who fiddle with calligraphy and painting, why is it that a small door has been opened to you now! Where are hard-working guys like us, they still have to take the government examination and the palace examination layer by layer, even if they get gray hair, they may not be able to get any fame. Gee! All of a sudden, even I have to envy you! ”

Chu Feng looked at the wine in front of him, remembered the experience of drunken painting "West Lake Cloud and Smoke Map" a few days ago, and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't dare to raise a glass.

"What's wrong? Is it sad to have such a good thing? Liu Zhengqing drank five or six cups in a row, and then he saw that Chu Feng was wrong, and asked questions.

"Sir, he ......" Chu Feng hesitated, considering his words, "It seems that I don't like the matter of my senior brother entering the painting academy very much." ”

Liu Zhengqing was slightly stunned.

Chu Feng looked at the candlelight reflected in the slightly flickering elixir in the cup: "Sir, I think that the bureaucracy of the academy is too heavy, and it is not suitable for people like us. ”

"Uh......" Liu Zhengqing understood what Chu Feng meant, and his face became a little embarrassed for a while.

In this era, the emphasis is on being a teacher for one day and a father for life, and the emphasis is on the three outlines and five permanent monarchs as ministers, and the father as the son. On the one hand, it is the general situation of the monarch and the minister, and on the other hand, it is the relationship between master and apprentice, such a general situation, even Liu Zhengqing, he doesn't know what to say.

Chu Feng smiled: "But it's too early to think about this matter now, I don't know what it will be in the future, with my ability, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to enter the academy than to ascend to the sky, and I am afraid that it is a little worrying to think about it now." Brother Liu, today is a great day for you to celebrate the title of the gold list, don't make it heavy because of me. ”

"I'm doing this as a trivial matter, and it's not unreasonable for you to worry about it." Liu Zhengqing patted Chu Feng on the shoulder, "Brother Chu, if you want me to say, you should talk to Mr. Cheng Yuan about this matter if you have a chance, after all, Mr. Cheng Yuan is also an extraordinary person, and he may not be ......."

"Two, don't you hide here and don't deal with us? Brother Chu, I just saw the "Chunlan Picture" below, the so-called wonderful pen of flowers, I'm afraid it's just that! ”

At this time, the feast was lively again.

Someone raised wine to laugh, interrupting the conversation between Chu Feng and Liu Zhengqing.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Chu and I are greedy for cups, and we want to secretly drink a few more cups, but you found out so quickly, do you want to ask us for blame!" Liu Zhengqing got up with a smile and blended into the excitement with Chu Feng.

The staggered staggering, the silk and bamboo are complicated, and there is a lively scene between the comings and goings.

The students come and go, but also do not forget to take turns to go to the three adults to toast, the adults only slightly raise their glasses, taste the taste, talk and laugh between the cups and change the lamp, five-color streamers.

The singer sings, and the dancer comes to reconcile.

After a few turns, most of the guests were already drunk, and the night was deep enough.

The moon hangs in the sky, and the figure lingers.

The three adults were on official business, and they had already left under the pretext of excuses. It is impossible to really do such a thing as having fun with the people. Moreover, they also know very well that without their restraints, these scholars who have just experienced the joyful events of life can have more fun.

Qin Cao held the piano, came and went, went and came.

At this time, there were already scholars lying on their backs to the sky, snoring faintly.

Chu Feng was originally not strong enough to drink, although Liu Zhengqing tried his best to block the wine for him, and now, it is inevitable that he will have a few glasses of wine, and at this time he also has a pair of hazy eyes, drowsy.

The banquet was almost over, Qin Cao looked at the mess of cups and plates in front of him, and then looked at Chu Feng, who was supporting his head with his arms on the side, in a daze, and couldn't help but smile silently.

At this time, if you play the strings and sing the song, where will anyone listen to it?

But after all, it has to be sung, even if it is for a good night's sleep.

The reels plucked the strings three or two times, but before the lyrics, a faint mood flipped over the heart.

Qin Cao looked at Chu Feng, smiled slightly, and played the song "Fortune Operator" that she had been practicing for the past few days.

"Outside the broken bridge, lonely open ownerless ......"

When Chu Feng was half asleep and half awake, he vaguely heard the familiar lyrics and the tune he had never heard before, and his heart moved slightly.

"It's dusk and I'm alone, and it's ...... wind and rain."

In a daze, he wanted to open his eyes and use all his strength, but he couldn't.

"I have no intention of fighting for spring, and I am jealous of the ......"

I always feel that this voice is a little familiar, and I rack my brains to think about it, but my brain seems to be frozen, blank, and I can't think of anything.

"Scattered into mud and dust, only the fragrance is the same as the old ......"

Sounds like heaven.

Chu Feng thought like this, after all, he fell asleep.

……

……

Good rain knows the season, when spring happens.

Chu Feng woke up in a daze after getting drunk, only to find that the sky was still drowsy.

Sleepy-eyed looked, it turned out that I didn't know when, I had returned to my room. There was a slight moisture floating up and down the tip of the nose, and when I listened carefully, there was indeed the sound of drizzle knocking on the window, but it was too faint to be heard.

Smell it carefully, this humidity seems to contain some other things, it seems to be the fragrance of rice, but there is a faint mixture of salty and fresh flavors in it, and the index finger of the hooker moves.

It's just that now, when people are at the beginning of quiet, how can anyone cook at this time?

Strangely, there was a faint human voice outside the window.

"Chu Langjun hasn't gotten up yet? What to do with this meal? Is it okay to be hungry all the time? "The voice sounds like Brother Zhang's.

"By him, knowing how bad his drinking power is, he drank like that bear and was sent back, like mud, and now he deserves it even if he is hungry."

This voice was obviously stern, Chu Feng couldn't hear that it was Mr. Wen Duan, and his face turned red at the moment.

Who sent you back? Now I have no memory at all, it is estimated that it is Liu Zhengqing, he himself has drunk a lot, and he doesn't know where he got the energy to send himself back.

Hey? It's not quite right to say this, it's still dark outside, Mr. Wen Duan shouldn't have gotten up so early, is it possible...... Slept for another day and a night?

As soon as he thought of this, Chu Feng was shocked, and hurriedly got up, but as soon as he touched the ground, his legs were weak, and he stumbled, hitting the table and chair next to him, making a piercing sound.

The door was pushed open in an instant, and Chu Feng was red as if he had been caught as a current criminal.

"That, sir, I'...... Drink like a fish. I'm so sorry. Chu Feng was embarrassed and scratched his head.

Mr. Wen Duan glanced at him and sneered: "He is not very old, but Chu Lang's alcohol consumption is good!" Young people are outside poetry, wine, and flow, where do old people like us dare to point fingers? ”

Chu Feng knew that Mr. was angry because he was drunk, and his heart was sweet and sour for a while, with mixed tastes, and at the same time, he couldn't help but be in a hurry, and he didn't know how to comfort him at all.

And after Mr. Wen Duan finished speaking, he turned around and walked into his room, not giving Chu Feng time to speak at all.

Brother Zhang hugged his arms outside the door to watch the excitement, and couldn't help but turn his face sideways, secretly happy.

"Brother Zhang, you laugh at me too." Chu Feng smiled bitterly and took a few steps towards the door. His gaze caught a glimpse of starlight across the eaves of the patio, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, "I really slept for a day and a night?" ”

Lao Zhang stretched out his thumb and praised sincerely: "I said Chu Langjun, Lao Zhang, I have seen many people get drunk in my life. There are those who talk nonsense, those who jump all over the streets, those who cry and make a fuss, and those who fall asleep. But you're the first one who can sleep in twelve hours with a little wine! ”

Chu Feng touched his nose embarrassedly: "Why does Brother Zhang make fun of me...... Dare to ask, did Brother Liu send me back? ”

When Lao Zhang heard this, he hurriedly stretched out his hand and made a silent gesture, then glanced at the inner room, lowered his voice and said: "My family Ah Lang is angry because of this matter, Lang Jun, you should mention it less." ”

Chu Feng didn't understand what was going on at all.

Lao Zhang smiled, glanced at Chu Feng with a kind of gaze that only men understand, secretly gave a thumbs up, and said sincerely: "Chu Langjun is really admirable, but it was just a night of hard work, and he actually won the heart of the head of the Moon Drinking Boat." With this kung fu alone, I'm afraid it will make the men of the entire Hangzhou City unhappy! ”

"Where?" Chu Feng scratched his head, "The head of the Drinking Moon Boat is talking about the piano girl?" ”

"It's her!" Lao Zhang said with a smile, "It was the personal girl of the Qin Cao girl who brought someone back and sent you back, saying that it was the Qin Cao girl who personally ordered it." ”

Chu Feng recalled the blue-like figure of the empty valley, and there was an inexplicable sound echoing in his mind.

"Maybe it's because the girl is kind-hearted and ordered someone to escort us drunk, unconscious guys back." Chu Feng shook his head with a smile, "I haven't said a few words to that girl, so I won't take care of anything." ”

"Hey, hey." Lao Zhang smiled silently.

Chu Feng thought about it carefully, and felt that what he said should be right, so he was able to deal with it indifferently in the face of Brother Zhang's gaze.

"Anyway, my Ah Lang doesn't like young people very much, plus Chu Langjun, you came back with a drunken body, and slept until this time...... Lao Zhang explained.

Chu Feng covered his forehead, feeling that the blood vessels on the top of his head were still thumping from time to time, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "My Ah Lang was originally waiting for Lang Jun to have breakfast together, but he didn't wait, and you didn't wake up until dinner time today." Yes! Look at me, I'm really confused. Lang Jun is afraid that he is hungry now, and today he rarely bought some fresh spring bamboo shoots, I fried the bacon, so I brought it over for everyone to taste. ”

After that, he deliberately raised his voice by three points, and said to the inner room: "I secretly tasted a piece when I was cooking just now, tsk, it's so fresh that I almost chewed my tongue into my stomach!" I'm going to serve it!" ”

Before turning around to leave, Lao Zhang didn't forget to squeeze his eyes at Chu Feng.

Chu Feng thought it was funny, he had heard that Mr. Wen Duan liked to eat spring bamboo shoots, but Brother Zhang's play was somewhat funny to children, and he didn't know if the old man would take the bait.

Turning around, I saw Mr. Wen Duan walking out with a serious face, not so much as if he was here to eat, but as if he was going to interrogate a prisoner.

Chu Feng was overjoyed, and hurriedly opened his mouth and changed the topic: "Sir, Lord Liu has said something about the painting academy, and I want to discuss it with you." ”

"Painting Academy?" Mr. Wen Duan raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Yes." Chu Feng humbly asked, "The chief examiner, Lord Liu, said that the reason why I was given this fellow villager to try out my background was actually because the official family wanted to expand the painting academy, so they were looking for personnel across the country. I heard that the painting academy is a place where the royal collection of famous paintings and calligraphy is stored, but I don't know what the specific official positions and responsibilities are, so I want to ask you for advice, sir! ”
