Chapter 301: Snatching Love with a Horizontal Knife

Zhang Dai sat next to Zhang Yuan, saw the bamboo branch words on the back of the worship post, and said in surprise: "Ah, that girl chased here from Jinling!" ”

Zhang Cao hurriedly asked: "Who, who?" Wang Xiuwei? ”

Zhang Dai said with a smile: "If it weren't for Wang Xiuwei, who else would it be, could it be Li Xueyi." ”

In addition to Fan Wenruo, Wen Zhenmeng, Feng Menglong, a few more old-fashioned, the others are under the age of 30 hot-blooded people, the Han Society collection is huge, dating papers, arm to arms, although lively and gratifying, but it seems to be less rhyme, at this time I heard that there is a Nanjing name coming, it seems to be with Zhang Yuan, everyone is in good spirits, have asked what is the end, Zhang Cao's mouth is fast, just from Wang Wei in the West Lake broken bridge to start talking about the beginning - Zhang Yuan got up and said: "The third brother tells the story slowly, I will go to see it first." ”

Ruan Dacheng, Ni Yuanlu and others laughed in unison: "Don't snub the beauty, go quickly." ”

Zhang Yuan followed the big stone to the front hall, but saw a grown man standing in front of the steps, but it was Wang Wei's servant Uncle Yao - Uncle Yao crossed his hands and said: "Zhang Gongzi, my master is in the boat outside Xiguo Gate, I wonder if I can ask Zhang Gongzi to move and see him?" ”

Xiguomen is one of the four water gates in Shanyin City, about a mile away from Dongzhang here, on the bank of the Fu River - Zhang Yuan said warmly: "Uncle Yao has worked hard from afar, has he eaten?" ”

Uncle Yao said: "The villain has eaten in the boat. ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "Then let's go." "Instructed Mu Zhenzhen to bring a small basket of strawberries and a can of pineapple tea to Wang Wei - at this time it was already completely dark, on the night of the second day of the first month of March, dark clouds were thick, there were no stars and no moon, Wuling picked a sheep's horn lantern in front of the road, Zhang Yuan, Mu Zhenzhen, and Uncle Yao were behind, and the four of them went to the direction of Fuhe from the alley behind the Fuxue Palace, this alley was not more lively than the cross street, on both sides were the high walls of large households, the deep alley was quiet, the footsteps were staggering, and a child's playing horn lamp was dimly illuminating the stone road, Zhang Yuan's feeling was a little strange, It seems that I am walking in a dream, why do I feel this way? Wang Wei came to Shaoxing from Jinling, of course, for him, of course he was happy, but he was not as happy as a white dream - at the end of the high wall of the alley, on both sides were jagged houses, fence walls, vines climbing on the wall, leaking faint lights, and dogs barking a few times when they heard strange footsteps, all of which calmed Zhang Yuan's heart. Did Zhang Yuan feel the poetry of life?

Walking through this piece of dwelling, the front is the Fu River, down the river, outside the Xiguo Water Gate not far from the Yuewang Bridge, a four-tiled white canopy boat is moored on the shore, the bamboo curtains of the canopy are rolled up, the lights and candles in the cabin are bright, some people are playing against each other, there are men and women, and the crisp sound of the chess pieces hitting on the chessboard can be heard - Zhang Yuan stopped and asked Uncle Yao: "Is this the boat?" ”

Uncle Yao responded: "Yes." ”

Zhang Yuan asked, "Who else is on this ship?" ”

Uncle Yao said: "My girl came on Mao Xianggong's boat, and returned to Mao Xianggong, and Mao Xianggong's friend Wu Ningfu Wu Xianggong, and the girl who played against my family was Mao Xianggong's concubine Yang Wan, who was an old acquaintance of Guangling. ”

Zhang Yuan was a little unhappy in his heart, and he was relieved when he didn't want to change his mind, he was not a narrow-minded person, and Wang Wei could take the boat of his three brothers to Jinling, why couldn't he take Mao Yuanyi's boat to Shanyin, Wang Wei was originally a girl in the song, not a person in his room, and it was her freedom to make friends - Zhang Yuan said: "It turned out that the prince of Gui An Mao was here, then please report to Uncle Yao, and say that Zhang Yuan took the liberty to visit." ”

Uncle Yao said: "That Mao Xianggong said before, tonight is my girl's visit, my girl is the master, Mao Xianggong also wants to get to know Zhang Gongzi, Mao Xianggong is also here for the Shanyin Society." ”

Zhang Yuan smiled slightly, and said in his heart: "Mao Yuanyi is a friend of Wang Ruqian and Tan Yuanchun, I must have heard too much of my notoriety, and the person who came was not good." ”

Uncle Yao rushed to the side of the boat and called, Zhang Yuan saw that the original sit-in opponents in the cabin immediately moved, and some people in the boat looked at the shore, and the boat was moving, as if a good show was about to appear, it was really a bit of "you are watching the scenery on the bridge, and the people watching the scenery are looking at you upstairs" - there are three Confucian students who walked out of the bow of the boat and looked at Zhang Yuan, the first person tied his hair with a green scarf, a green shirt flowing, and his body looked thin compared with the two people behind. This girl dressing up as a man is just hiding her ears and stealing the bell, can a man have such beautiful and charming eyes?

Zhang Yuan arched his hand and said: "Brother Xiuwei, I said goodbye to the winter moon last year, and I am very happy to meet again today-please introduce these two friends to me?" As he spoke, he stepped from the pedal to the white canopy boat.

Wang Wei saw his men's clothes, Zhang Yuan called her Brother Xiuwei, he was happy in his heart, and he also returned the courtesy, and greeted Mu Zhenzhen and Wuling, and before she could say anything to introduce the two behind her, the Angzang scholar on her left who had a nose and a wide mouth took two steps forward, and arched his hand: "I am returning to Anmao Yuanyi, and I have come to see the talents of Hanshe." ”

Zhang Yuan returned the salute and said in his heart: "Listening to this Mao Zhisheng's tone is a little unkind, I came to meet Wang Xiuwei tonight, but I didn't expect to have a fight with this Mao Zhisheng again, just like watching the snow meet Tan Yuanchun in the Huxin Pavilion, a beautiful woman, but there are evil guests on the side, it is really unpleasant." ”

The young scholar in his twenties at the head of Wang Wei's right said: "Wu Dingfang in Xiasu, the word Ningfu, has heard the name of Zhang Gongzi in Shanyin for a long time, and I have come to know Jing. ”

Wang Wei said: "Mao Xianggong chivalrous bones Lingyun, liver sausage ice and snow, like to read military books, with a strategic mind, Wu Xianggong can be good at poetry and painting, and said that he wrote a new poem in Suzhou 'green shade is like rain and ten thousand oblique, crying out of the morning warbler and evening crow, saying that the spring breeze has no other meaning, only blowing flowers over the west', has been recited for a whileβ€”β€”"

Zhang Yuan praised: "Good poetry, good poetry." ”

Wu Dingfang waved his hand and said, "I'm ashamed." ”

Mao Zhisheng said: "Brother Ning Fu's poem is good, but it is still inferior to Tan Youxia's poems in Jingling, Tan Youxia's poems can't enter the eyes of Zhang Sheshou, Zhang Sheshou praises Brother Ning Fu, isn't it perfunctory!" ”

Mao Yuanyi is a well-known figure in the late Ming Dynasty, Zhang Yuan has a good understanding of his life, after the rise of the Later Jin Dynasty and the bad things in Liaodong, Mao Yuanyi wanted to improve the combat power of the Ming army, and collected the most practical and sharp weapons and war equipment, edited into the book "Wu Bei Zhi", Mao Yuanyi was Sun Chengzong's staff and participated in many wars in Liaodong, this person has practical talents, and is worthy of respect compared to Wang Ruqian and Tan Yuanchun, of course, the current Mao Yuanyi is only a young man in his early twenties, chivalrous and fiery, Zhang Yuan is not here to compete with Mao Yuanyi and be jealous, There is no need to go toe-to-toe with him - Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "This time is also that time, commenting on Tan Youxia's poems also has a specific context, at that time, it was about the great poets of ancient and modern times, and it was only when Tan Shi was slightly derogatory, Brother Zhisheng should not listen to other people's rumors and have prejudices about the next first, and the next life is here, Brother Zhisheng can use his own eyes to see what kind of person he is, just think that Brother Zhisheng is an occasional crossing of Shanyin, and meet by chance, the two sides do not know their names, and the relationship will start from now on, how about it?" ”

Wang Wei secretly praised Zhang Yuan's beautiful words in his heart, and said: "Mao Xianggong and Zhang Xianggong are both righteous and happy to make friends, and if they talk one night, they will definitely become friends." ”

Mao Yuanyi saw that Zhang Yuan was not humble or arrogant, modest and polite, more graceful than his aggressiveness when he met, and he was secretly ashamed, he was secretly ashamed of Zhang Yuan, not because of Wang Ruqian, nor because of Tan Yuanchun, but because of Wang Wei, in early February, Wang Wei hired a boat from Jinling to Suzhou, when he was at Wu Dingfang's house, Wu Dingfang was Wang Wei's poetry friend, Mao Yuanyi saw Wang Wei, and learned that Wang Wei was going to Shanyin to observe the Han Society assembly, Mao Yuanyi was a little unhappy, he had learned from Wang Ruqian that Wang Wei was devoted to Zhang Yuan, Wang Ruqian naturally said a lot of slander, Mao Yuanyi asked Wang Wei for verification, Wang Wei told the truth about that night, but denied that she was devoted to Zhang Yuan, only said that Zhang Yuan was helpful, respected Zhang Yuan's knowledge, and asked for a mentor and friend, but Mao Yuanyi knew Wang Wei's arrogant spleen surname, Zhang Yuan did not invite her, but she went thousands of miles away to observe what Han Society assembly, this is obviously a deep meaning to Zhang Yuan, like Wang Wei, a beautiful woman with both talent and appearance, Mao Yuanyi, who spends money like dirt and is suave, also has the heart to take Wang Wei as his own. Last year, he traveled to Huangshan with Wang Ruqian and Wang Wei, Mao Yuanyi could feel that Wang Wei was different from other celebrities and gentlemen, and he should be quite affectionate, but this time goodbye in Suzhou, Mao Yuanyi noticed that Wang Wei's affection for him withered, and the girls in this song often couldn't help but say how Zhang Yuan was, so Mao Yuanyi and Wang Wei came to Shanyin together to see who Zhang Yuan was who took love? Is it worth making Wang Wei fall in love?

At this time, listening to Zhang Yuan speak like this, Mao Yuanyi was secretly ashamed, he was open-minded, generous, and narrow-minded Wang Ruqian was completely different from the narrow-minded Wang Ruqian, and arched his hand and said: "Zhang Gongzi is right, you and I will start dating from this time, whether it is a friend or a passerby, we will see after a conversation." ”

Wang Wei was very happy, she believed that Mao Zhisheng would become friends with Zhang Yuan, and said with a smile: "Why don't you go into the cabin to sit, just talk at night on the bow of the boat, but unfortunately there is no moon." ”

Mao Yuanyi hurriedly said: "Zhang Gongzi, please." ”

Zhang Yuan followed Mao Yuanyi, Wu Dingfang, Wang Wei into the ship hall, the four Ming tile white canopy ship has four cabins, the front left cabin is used as a hall, the decoration is quite luxurious, it can be seen in the Fujia Township of the Anmao family, Ying Ying stood up next to the chess table in the boat hall A young girl, to Zhang Yuan Wanfu Shi - Mao Yuanyi did not shy away from taboos, introduced: "This is in the side room Yang Wan, and Wang Xiuwei Yuan is sisters. ”

This Yang Wan is graceful, only slightly inferior to Wang Wei, and is also a rare beauty, Zhang Yuan smiled and didn't say anything, not only is she a sister with Wang Wei, but also naturally from Yangzhou Thin Horse or Qinglou Ji - Yang Wan is the same age as Wang Wei, seventeen years old in the New Year, beautiful eyes look forward to it, look at Zhang Yuan, and look at Wang Wei, and said coquettishly: "Xiu Wei, the chess game is not over, do you admit defeat, or ask this Zhang Xianggong to help you?" ”
