Chapter 20: The Beauty
Since Liu Ming recited the song Nian Nujiao, the other scholars on the boat found that this Su Shi was always together with Liu Ming, chatting and being inseparable.
Liu Ming was a little embarrassed, that poem was a slave, Su Shi always asked himself about the meaning of certain sentences.
Big brother, this is your word, why do you keep asking me?
Liu Ming found that the madness of the personality of this great poet of the Song Dynasty was the same.
There was still more than half a month before the palace test, and Su Shi actually proposed to let the passenger boat go directly down the Yangtze River to Hangzhou to enjoy the West Lake. Then take a detour from the West Lake to Bianjing Kaona Hall for the test.
This crazy and bold proposal won the approval of the boatman. On this ship, except for Liu Ming and Su Shi, the rest of the scholars stopped at most at the provincial test, and the next palace test had nothing to do with them at all, so naturally it didn't matter.
Therefore, when they heard this proposal, the entire Shizi on the boat, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, directly agreed.
Liu Ming smiled bitterly, I am afraid that among the more than 100 tributes waiting to participate in the palace examination, only he and Su Shi are the most chic. In order to avoid his family's worries, he had to send the letter to his family while the boat was docking, saying that his plan was going to change and that he would reroute from Hangzhou to Bianjing.
Within a few days, the passenger boat came to Hangzhou, south of the Yangtze River. On this boat, Liu Ming didn't seem to be sober, and he had been struggling to get rid of Su Shi's drinking.
Outside the mountain, when will the West Lake sing and dance?
The warm breeze makes the tourists drunk, and Hangzhou is Bianzhou.
The scenery of the West Lake, the landscape is distinct, the bridge is painted with smoke and willows, and it is poetic and picturesque. At this time, Hangzhou, because of its pleasant scenery, also attracted many scholars to go sightseeing.
Early in the morning, Su Shi stretched and walked out of the hall. Thinking that he had drunk Liu Ming for seven consecutive days, he felt a feeling of being alone and seeking defeat in his heart.
This Liu Ming is on par with his poetry talent, but the amount of alcohol is too different.
This poet has already planned his life in Hangzhou, and every day he takes the scholar to the nearby market to eat and shop, drink a bowl of lotus seed porridge, smell the autumn cinnamon fragrance, and relax and relax. Then dinner was concentrated...... Shrub willow ming.
Eat, sleep, and beat beans.
In the guest hall of the guild hall, a scholar was looking intently at a book of words, and when he saw Su Shi coming, he beckoned: "Brother Su, can you take a look at these two words?"
Su Shi took the book, took the oil lamp, and looked at the two poems on the book, and his eyes lit up: "These two poems are deep and meaningful, euphemistic and delicate, revealing a delicate wind." ”
The scholar smiled mysteriously and said, "Brother Su, look at the inscription of these two poems." ”
"Oh...... Like a dream moon? Su Shi said unexpectedly, "This name ......"
"Brother Su, you have lived in Meizhou for a long time, and you don't know much about the situation in Qingzhou. Every month, our bookstore in Qingzhou will print a collection of poems, which will collect the excellent works of Qingzhou scholars. This Dream Moon has been the title page inscription for three consecutive months, and it can be regarded as a strange person in my Qingzhou words. The scholar smiled, "Nowadays, not only our Qingzhou, but also the scholars of the Central Plains are obsessed with this dream-like poem. ”
"If there is such a Wenjie, I would like to see it and see each other's demeanor." Su Shi said appreciatively.
"At a glance?" The scholar laughed, "With this kind of demeanor, I'm afraid even if you meet Su Shi, it will be difficult." ”
"Why?" Su Shi said strangely, "Everyone is a poetry friend, so why don't you go out to drink and admire the moon and make friends together?" ”
In the guest hall, several other scholars laughed in unison: "If it is true that this Rumengyue drinks and admires the moon with your Zizhan, people will have to be afraid...... Married to you! ”
"What?" Su Shi was amazed, "This Rumengyue turned out to be a woman?" ”
"Yes, this is like a dream moon and her person is very low-key, and others don't even know her real name, so they can only get a glimpse of the leopard from the book of this monthly issue. However......" The scholar's face was excited, and he said mysteriously: "I heard that this Rumengyue has also rushed to Hangzhou in the past few days. ”
"Oh?" The scholars present were greatly shaken, and they all whispered to each other. Originally, a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, and she has been wandering in her mind as an ancient precept since she was a child. Now a strange woman suddenly came out, and this poem was not inferior to Fan Gong and Ouyang Gong of the current dynasty, and she couldn't help but make people admire and be curious.
"I heard......," replied the scholar, "that woman is enjoying the flowers at the flower and bird market today, so why don't we see her?" ”
Right now, this strange woman who saw the head and the end of the dragon suddenly appeared in Hangzhou, and couldn't help but be fascinated and wanted to see the woman.
can be drawn out in this dynasty where everyone can recite poetry, and she is a woman, which naturally affects the curiosity of many literati.
Su Shi said quickly: "Then why don't we leave quickly?" ”
These scholars immediately responded, and rushed out of the hall and went straight to the flower and bird market.
"By the way, we forgot to call Liu Ming......," one of the scholars remembered.
"Liu Ming?" Su Shi pursed his mouth and said with a wicked smile, "I heard that he has already married a wife." If you have such an opportunity, let me wait for a bachelor. ”
"yes...... But I said...... What if that Dream Moon looks ugly? Heavenly Dao has more than enough to make up for it. That amazing word that Rumengyue can do, no matter how good-looking it looks, isn't it unreasonable? ”
"That's right...... I think that Rumengyue is reluctant to show her face, and most of them have little confidence in her appearance, maybe she is also an ugly woman, and she has to write poems if she can't get married. ”
A few people pulled the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and after a few steps, they arrived at the door of the flower and bird market. I saw a flock of warblers gathered and the flowers were fragrant. Each shop has brought out green potted plants, as well as flowers, birds, fish and insects with bright colors and cute appearances, to attract shoppers.
A scholar stood on tiptoe, his eyes longingly looking at the people coming and going in the market, and suddenly pointed to a red oil-paper umbrella and said, "I heard from the people in the academy next door that that Rumengyue was holding a red oil-paper umbrella, and there were two maids next to him. ”
As he spoke, he saw two nearby shops, and suddenly there were more than a dozen people, all of whom were dressed as men wearing scarves and hats and soap shoes, hooking their shoulders and backs, and poking their heads sneakily there.
When the group saw Su Shi and the group, they all smiled embarrassedly.
Hearing that Rumengyue appeared in Hangzhou, the scribes in the whole city were in an uproar.
Seeing that the woman under the umbrella was slender, with a graceful gait, and was very elegant and strolling through the market. And all the eyes were straight.
"It's just wonderful. How can it still be an ugly girl? One sighed.
Su Shi looked at the woman under the umbrella, frowned, and said, "Don't jump to conclusions." That Yaksha's figure is also ...... merry" Speaking of this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he changed his course, "I, Su, am not jealous of the virtuous and jealous, and I want to curse that Miss Rumengyue, but now I am still holding the pipa and half-covering my face, so I still have to look closer and see it safely." Let's send someone to see the whole picture. ”
The crowd was silent.
Although everyone was elated to see the beautiful face of the moon like a dream, they really wanted to become the pickers, to observe closely, and to remove the red umbrella, but they couldn't wipe off their face. Everyone is a scholar, and on weekdays, when I see the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law, they all hide away, although there is a little desire in my heart, but I also take into account the etiquette of the reader.
At this time, some people began to sigh that Liu San couldn't change his pity, that guy slept in the Qinglou every day, and he still had a good set of conversations with those beautiful little jasper.
Seeing that the woman with the red paper umbrella was about to reach the end of the market, she was about to turn the corner and miss the opportunity to meet.
Su Shi stomped his feet - his grandmother's, why don't men bring Wu hooks!
Fight!
He asked the shop next to him to buy a bouquet of lilies, and then took three steps and two steps to look in the direction of the woman with the red umbrella.
"Rou Niang...... Rou Niang ......" Su Shi approached the woman's back and called loudly, "I've been looking for you for a long time, where have you been......" said, trembling his right hand to remove the red paper oil umbrella that blocked the sun.
Su Shi was ready in his heart, if the other party was passable, he would send the lily to the other party. If the other person is ugly, then ...... Turn around and run.
heard a soft call of "oops", and the oil-paper umbrella was removed by Su Shi's hand, and then the woman looked up at Su Shi.
A bouquet of lilies fell to the ground from Su Shi's hand and spread out, and Su Shi was also like petrification.
"Childe......" the woman with the umbrella asked strangely, "what's wrong with you?" ”
Su Shi's heart was about to jump out of his throat, and he saw that the woman's hair was pitch black, and her eyes were bright. The slender ten fingers are like planting onions, and the curved eyebrows are like wiping daisies, a beautiful little lady.
Su Shi saw that this woman was so pretty, and thought to himself that he had only heard that the Xie sisters in the Bianjing Golden Boudoir were the most beautiful sisters in the Great Song Dynasty, and this woman looked delicate and lovely, like a spring breeze, fresh as an ice spring on Changbai Mountain, so that people did not dare to have the slightest blasphemy, but they did not lose to the Xie sisters.
Su Shi couldn't believe that such a beautiful woman could also make excellent poems. He immediately wanted to give the other party a try, and said: "Chang Ji Xiting is twilight, drunk and don't know the way back......"
These two sentences are the most famous words of this Rumengyue.
When the woman heard this, her eyes were shocked, and with a little panic, she turned around and left. This made Su Shi sure that this was the dream moon.
"Miss Rumengyue, don't go...... Don't go, ......" Su Shi couldn't care about the etiquette, and called bitterly, "In Su Dongpo, Xia Meizhou, Miss Wen's poems are amazing, and I came to meet you." ”
Su Shi is not a person who particularly likes to be famous, but he had to report his name this time, hoping to attract the other party to stop.
Sure enough, the woman under the oil-paper umbrella stopped two steps with some hesitation, two blushes on her cheeks, and whispered: "Su Gongzi recognized the wrong person......
"I won't admit my mistakes, I won't admit my mistakes!" Su Shi shouted anxiously, "I'm very sure that you, girl, are like a dream." Su didn't mean blasphemy, he just wanted to ask for advice on the word. ”
Su Shi's roar, all the scholars heard the wind moved, everyone was anxious to see the face, and for a while, they surrounded the narrow street of the flower and bird market.
That Rumengyue suddenly saw so many scholars suddenly appearing, and she was so frightened that she thought something was wrong, and hurriedly hid behind the two maids.
"What are you doing?" A maid has seen the world, and scolded loudly, "There are so many men, surrounding our young lady, you are still scholars, why don't you be ashamed?" Believe it or not? ”
Another shorter little maid also said: "You Diao people, dare to stop the driving of this palace, the crime deserves death, and all of them should be beheaded!" ”
"This palace should put you all in prison...... Feed the meat buns and let you hold you to death......"
"There is another way in this palace, tell you ......"
"Hongu ......"
Su Shi thought to himself, this little girl, chattering is amazing, he was about to be in a dilemma, his eyes flickered, but he saw Liu Ming's figure.
Su Shi rolled his eyes, thinking that this person was Liu Yong's nephew, and he had inherited a little bit of his kung fu. He immediately ran to Liu Ming's side and said, "My good brother. Just now a few of our brothers accidentally offended a girl. You help. ”
"I can't help much." Liu Ming said sleepily, "I still have to go with that sobering soup." Otherwise, you're going to fill me with ...... at night."
"Good, good, good. I promise not to pour you. Su Shi stopped Liu Ming and said, "Look at it, we just want to witness the face of this little lady, but people want to report to the official, how is this trouble?" In case of a big fuss, will we still take the palace exam? ”
Liu Ming said angrily: "It's not us, it's your ......"
Su Shi's ears were pricked up, and he could hear that next to the red oil paper umbrella, the maid had already quarreled with the onlookers, and it was a lot of trouble, no matter how Liu Ming excused himself, he simply shouted directly: "Don't worry, don't worry, let the officials of Fei County Liu judge it, they have their own public opinion!" ”
Before Liu Ming could understand what was going on, he saw that someone was pushed violently behind him, and the whole person stumbled and rushed towards the woman with the red oil paper umbrella.
When the lifter next to him saw Liu Ming rushing towards the woman holding the umbrella, they all shook their heads with pity for her-the other party had already shouted to report to the official, and now he rushed up, didn't he ask for his own suffering?
The others were scolded by the two maids, and they wanted to smear the soles of their feet and leave, but they saw Liu Ming rushing in bravely.
Just when Liu Ming was stumbling and wanted to turn back to Su Shi angrily to settle accounts, he found that he had become the target of public criticism, and all his moves were staring at him.
But he caught a glimpse of one of the maids in his spare eye, and he was happy-Xiaorou?
When Xiao Rou saw Liu Ming, she was also very surprised, and chirped happily: "Xiao Mingzi Xiao Mingzi Xiao Mingzi ......"
The person under the red oil paper umbrella, Liu Ming doesn't have to think about it to know who it is.
"Apricot!" Liu Ming's voice was as gentle as water.
That Xing'er was surrounded by everyone just now, and she was already scared to tears, and when she saw Liu Ming at this moment, she was both aggrieved and happy.
"It's okay." Liu Ming just wanted to comfort him a few more words, but he felt a heat in his body, a faint woman's body fragrance came from his nose, and a pair of soft and boneless hands were on his shoulders. Liu Xing'er was already so frightened that her tears flowed turbulently, her head was against Liu Ming's chest, and she muttered: "Why are there so many men......"
Liu Ming's heart warmed, and he hugged Xing'er and whispered, "Don't cry, silly girl." Those actions are all because you write well, and I worship you.
Xing'er wrapped her hands around Liu Ming's waist, pillowed her head on the other party's chest, and said softly: "Xianggong, it's good that you're here......"
Liu Ming had already received a letter from Xing'er, saying that he was going to follow him to Hangzhou. He just didn't expect the other party to come so quickly.
This plot is reversed, and the lifters next to him are dumbfounded, and their faces show a strange look when the sun and the moon are reversed.
Even if it is the unruly uncle Liu Yong, hooking up with a woman and making a sour poem, how can this Liu Ming go up and hug it?
Even though everyone admits in their hearts that Liu Ming looks like Pan An, he is better than Zijian, but ...... It's still too fast.
Su Shi's eyes were empty, and he looked at Liu Ming hugging Liu Xing'er, and said with a lost face: "It turns out that there is still one hidden next to this Liu Ming." ”
Liu Ming turned around in embarrassment and said, "Let me introduce you, this is a clumsy ......."
Su Shi's eyes were black and he almost fainted. He didn't expect that this beautiful woman was the famous Rumengyue. This Liu Ming's life is really perfect, it's too annoying.
No, you must pour him well tonight!
When he arrived at Xing'er's side, Liu Ming complained for a while, saying how Su Shi poured him. That Xing'er was originally soft-hearted, and she was even more distressed when she heard that Liu Ming was hurting her body by drinking. When I arrived at the hall, I got up every morning and made lotus seed porridge for Liu Ming, took the maid to buy vegetables and fruits in the morning, and made a lot of sumptuous dishes at noon. At night, he instructed Liu Ming to add futon to avoid catching a cold.
Those scholars of the guild hall, when they heard that Liu Xing'er was like a dream moon, originally admired her talent, but now they see Xing'er's ingenuity and virtue, and they are secretly envious of Liu Ming in their hearts. Thinking about this, Rumengyue is a talented girl in Qingzhou, she looks beautiful and beautiful, but she is also willing to cook rice and pour tea for Liu Ming.
This Liu Ming is really a winner in life.
