Chapter 15: The Mountains Beyond the Mountains, the People Outside the People (Part II)
The tenth day of the first month is also the big festival of the Song Dynasty, the beginning of the Spring Festival. The common people sell spring cattle made of mud, sometimes decorated with hundreds of operas and characters, and the big ones are like cats, giving gifts to each other. There are also spring plates and spring rolls, and the spring plates are produced in the inner part to give close ministers. The people also give each other spring plates and make good friends with each other.
But on the ninth day of the new year, it was also very lively.
Whip spring cattle.
Kaifeng Mansion led a cow into the palace, the emperor, or the queen mother in power, the symbol of the surname three whips, spring is coming, to work. There aren't many people who can see this. The provinces are really lively. Pick a cow, and the bureaucrats whip the spring cow. In the countryside, it is the elders who whip the oxen. Then serve the edible "earth cattle", real cattle in the Song Dynasty also could not be slaughtered at will. Most of them are made of pork, or other meats, and instead of flour, they are made into cow shapes and steamed in cages.
After some ceremonies, this native ox was eaten by the people, because folk rumors say that those who get beef should have silkworms. What did sericulture mean to the people of the Song Dynasty, that was the second rice bowl. As a result, the common people were like a blockage, and all the divisions were exhausted in an instant. Sometimes, because there are many people scrambling, they can be injured by trampling.
At this time, it is a time of joy and worry for the officials of the provinces.
The happy thing is that it is rare for the people to be happy, and when the people are happy, there will be political achievements. If you are worried, you are afraid of trampling on something, it is not a happy event, and it may affect your black yarn hat. The group of officials in the DPRK and China, if they don't do anything, they specifically pick thorns for their own people. As a result, many officials would rather not act than cause trouble.
Cui Youjie saw that the "beef" was snatched up, and there was no problem, so he wiped a handful of sweat.
Back home.
It's not a bought house, it's rented. Officials in the Song Dynasty often transferred their surnames, and some officials stayed in inns when they asked for their surnames. But the Cui family is still from a good background, and with Yu Lu, there is no need to wronged himself. Unless you want to be Feng Zheng.
This person is very interesting, the Ministry of Works, one of the five ghosts, Lin Te, has some business to talk to him, but he is gone. Lint thought about it, this is a business matter, so there is a private one, isn't he looking for a draw? So I went to the political hall to find Feng Zheng, but I still didn't see him, and brought a sentence, why don't you reach the court on official business. You kid's little eyes, I really don't know? Don't have bad ideas.
What a minister! But one thing finally made everyone ashamed, sick, the old lady in ** sent someone to visit, and saw that the family was poor and ugly, and even the quilt covered was a kudzu quilt used by the people. The old lady was in Fugui Township, confused, and allocated 5,000 gold, bedding, screens and other things made of brocade rust to his house.
Zheng Lang's small abacus was calculated for three days and three nights, and the four shopkeepers Liu carefully designed it for four years, and it was only six or seven thousand yuan, and after loading it for a while, they got a windfall of nearly sixty thousand yuan. But a dignified prime minister of the Song Dynasty is really poor to this job?
It's overdressing.
Cui Youjie disdains it!
Although the mansion is rented, it is not small, with three rows of three-hall houses, with a patio in front and a small garden in the back. The environment is very elegant. Even in this cold season, there are still three plum trees in the garden, blooming with pride.
His wife came over and asked, "Official, have you heard about the Zheng family?" ”
"Well, I heard that."
He is the parent official of Mengzhou, and Zhengzhou is only a river away, the Zheng family has a family affair with his family, and the Zheng family has any troubles, and Mengzhou is faster than Zhengzhou.
Half-convinced.
In the Song Dynasty, I didn't worry about the monster, even if a one-year-old child could compose a poem, it was a blessing from God, not a monster. If Zhenzong is alive, maybe he will be rewarded with some official and half-position immediately.
But Zheng Lang's previous evil deeds are unbelievable.
In this regard, there are different opinions, some people say that the shopkeeper Liu ate the leopard gall and was careless, so that the Zheng family found the handle. Some people say that the Zheng family secretly invited a master to help. As for what was talked about and how much money was embezzled, no one said, so they didn't believe it, it was Zheng Lang who found out all the account books in three days.
Cui Youjie also agrees with the latter view. A few guys tossed a good shop at a loss, can the Zheng family not be in a hurry? I heard about it, but I didn't say it.
"What's going on?" The Zheng family is a little anxious, and they are reluctant to do this family business, if even the shop is tossed and collapsed, what is the use of this family business?
"Don't say more, if you make an agreement with this son, you must abide by it, otherwise won't you make the world laugh?"
"Then ......"
"But what? If he is 17 years old and 20 years old, can't he be with my little girl? ”
"But at that time, Xian'er she ......"
"Xian'er, she is twenty years old, and she will not worry about not being able to get married! Don't say this in the future, it will affect my reputation. ”
"Yes."
There is no urgency in this matter, and the most concerned is the eldest son. After the eldest son took the exam, he was named Sun Shan in the two provincial exams. There are three sons in the family, and the second son is not learned or skilled, so he has to buy some land in the future and let him be a small landlord. The third son is still young, and he is also preparing to solve the scientific examination.
When I came to the eldest son's study, I was writing a poem.
After glancing at it, he said angrily: "What kind of poem was written!" ”
Spring is new and new, and Wang Shebu Fengyi.
Follow the road to Geng, Qing Temple Bingwende.
Ascend to the heights and comfort the camp.
I don't do anything for it, and I think about it from afar.
Hearing her father's scolding, Zheng Lang's future daughter-in-law held her cheeks and said, "Daddy, I don't understand." ”
This kid probably wanted to write that spring was coming, and he was very happy, thinking that it was the spring when King Zhou moved his capital to Luoyi. So with a few friends, follow the luster of the predecessors, follow the sanctity of the predecessors, and go out for a while. But a few friends were not there, so I climbed to the top of the abyss and thought about them. When will my friends from afar come back?
Except for the first sentence, they are all dry allusions. Wang Shebu Fengyi from the "Shangshu Summoning", the king of Zhou set off in February, arrived at Fengyi, and then divination, auspicious, built a city here. The following month, Zhou Gong also came here, very satisfied, and held a suburban festival to worship the sky. Subsequently, a shrine festival was held, and this was the real construction and official construction of the city. This allusion is relatively easy to understand, after all, it comes from a famous article in the "Book of Shang".
But from the next sentence, it is getting more and more unpopular.
Obey the road to get Geng Road, actually from "Chu Ci", Bi Yao Shun's joint introduction, both follow the road and get the way. Yao Shun is so upright and bright, he not only follows the right path but also walks the right path.
Even if this sentence can be remembered, the next sentence, jumped up and walked away, to the "Book of Songs, Zhou Song, Qing Temple", in the Muqing Temple, Su Yu appeared! Helping many people, the virtue of Bingwen. The solemn and quiet temple, the minister who assists in the sacrifice is shining. The officials who gathered together adhered to the holy virtues of King Wen.
This can be remembered, and the following can be thought of immediately, which is considered your good ability. actually jumped to "Xunzi", which is a sentence in persuasion, so if you don't climb the mountain, you don't know the sky. I don't know how deep I am, and I don't know how thick the ground is. If you don't climb to the top of a high mountain, you don't know how high the sky is. If you don't go to the deep stream, you don't know how thick the ground is. Therefore, this sentence can be ambiguously explained as that I went out, climbed the mountain, came to the abyss, and remembered the good qualities of a few distant friends.
It still makes sense.
But the kid's next sentence jumped to the ancient poem "Where the new camp of Shimen is located, surrounded by high mountains, Shise in the river, and lush forests and bamboos" written by Xie Lingyun. The knot belongs to Xiao Han, and the lonely scene is not with the ...... Shu took the car to comfort the soul. This camp soul is the author's reflection and the distant remembrance of his friends.
If someone's memory is like a computer, maybe these allusions can be figured out one by one, but what about the latter sentence!
This is from the ancient music house "Wushan Gao", a very unpopular song Yuefu, Wushan is high, high and big, the water is deep, and it is difficult to pass away. I will rest and return to the east, and I will not do anything. I set no high-flying, the water He Liang soup returns, the water looks far away, crying down the clothes, the thoughts of people from afar, what is it!
I want to go back, but there are many difficulties, and I can't go back. I have to miss my hometown in another country, what should I do?
Let this little use the metaphor of not being able to meet with friends.
When such a poem is written, a few people can understand it! It's to invite Du Niang, if you search directly, you must also not understand.
