Walking outside the Jingci Temple, I met Jiao Runsheng and Luo Xuan's father, Luo Xuan's father said: "Why is it too late for the three brothers Zhang to come, the two of us are about to look for it, and Mr. Yu Yong is waiting to see you in the South Park of Deputy Envoy Bao." ”

Zhang Yuan apologized: "I accompanied my sister to the lake, so I was late." ”

The group then turned around and walked in the direction of Leifeng Tower, Jiao Runsheng and Luo Xuan's father learned that Zhang Yuan had written two articles overnight, and hurriedly asked for it, reading it while walking, and shouted again and again, Jiao Runsheng said: "This is really a text that can make Cao Apu so frightened that he forgets his headache." ”

Zhang Cao pouted and said, "How can Dong Qichang compare to Cao Ying, he is 108,000 miles behind. ”

Jiao Runsheng said with a smile: "It's not that Dong Xuanzai is compared to Cao Ying, it's that the article on Jie Zi wants to make Dong Xuanzai break out in a cold sweat." ”

Luo Xuan's father said: "Mr. Yu Yong is afraid that we will not be allowed to denounce Dong Xuanzai like this-"

Jiao Runsheng said: "I will take these two articles to the school now, let the students copy them, do not sign Zhang Jiezi's name, and only publicize them in the name of the Songjiang students, so that on the surface, it has nothing to do with our school, and it will not embarrass Mr. Yu Yong." ”

Father Luo Xuan nodded and said, "It's so good—what does Brother Jie Zi think?" ”

This is exactly what Zhang Yuan wanted, even if Jiao Runsheng took these two articles back to the thatched cottage, Luo Xuan's father led the three Zhang Yuan brothers to the South Park of the Deputy Envoy Bao Han of the Zhejiang Political Division, this is said to be the deputy envoy of Bao Han is also in the garden, the name of the deputy envoy of Bao Yingdeng, the number of Han Office, and Zhang Rulin have a lot of friendship, seeing the three Zhang Yuan brothers, said with a smile: "The three handsome people of the Zhang family, go to the country to study together, rare, rare." ”

Huang Ruheng was holding a pair of faint glasses in his hand, which Zhang Yuan sent to Jiao Runsheng yesterday, Huang Ruheng said: "Zhang Yuan, these glasses are very good, I bought a pair of faint glasses in Suzhou the year before last, it is not as clear as the one you sent——"

Suddenly, I heard the crisp cracking sound of knocking over the porcelain under the steps in front of the hall, and when everyone in the hall turned their heads to look, a boy holding tea stood there with a sad face, holding a lacquer plate in his hand, and several tea cups in the lacquer plate all fell to the ground, and the bluestone on the floor was hard, and the tea and broken porcelain were all over the ground.

Bao Hansuo raised his eyebrows, and was about to get angry, but suddenly laughed out loud, and said to Zhang Yuan: "Zhang Yuan, you said in front of Jiao Taishi and Mr. Yu Yong last year that this tea boy held tea on a tray and walked through so many thresholds and stone steps, and he didn't stumble to break the Ou Cup, isn't it secretly in line with the Tao - the same person, but now he broke the tea cup, how can you say this?" ”

Huang Ruheng also laughed.

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "This time, that time, so it seems that the Tao is difficult, if I think that I have achieved the Tao today, and the merits are complete, it is often a toddler in Handan, and I will not walk on the road." ”

Zhang Yuan's words are quite wonderful and intriguing, and he praised him: "There is a Zen machine, and he is worthy of being the elder brother of Jiao Taishi and Mr. Yu Yong." He talked about Nanqu with Zhang Dai and Zhang Cao, and asked about Zhang's dining class, and said: "I have a drama troupe in the North Park under Feilai Peak, why do you say that you are acting on the same stage with your dining class, and compete with each other?" "The troupe of Bao Han Institute is famous in Hangzhou, and the singers perform dramas, and the team dances and drums, all of which are endless.

Zhang Dai said: "The next time the junior comes to Wulin, he will bring the dining class and ask the deputy envoy to advise." ”

Huang Ruheng asked Zhang Yuan about his experience in the last month's Taoist examination, Zhang Yuan was detailed one by one, Huang Ruheng encouraged Zhang Yuan's three brothers to study well in the Guozijian and strive for the township test next year, and talked about the good things of Zong Yi, Huang Ruheng was helpless, obviously regretted Dong Qichang's actions, Zhang Yuan said that Dong's bullying of Qingpu Lu's family, all kinds of evil deeds in Yurou Township, Bao Han and Huang Ruheng listened to it and shook their heads, Huang Ruheng sighed: "Dong Gong is mistaken by the slaves." ”

Zhang Yuanxin said: "The words that are mistaken by the slaves are for the Venerable, in fact, Dong Qichang is the first evil, Dong Zuyuan, Dong Zuchang and those Dong family slaves are not all relying on Dong Qichang's power to do evil, Dong Qichang often goes in and out of the Songjiang Prefect's Yamen, nothing more than asking for protection for his sons." ”

Bao Han wanted to leave Zhang Yuan's three brothers for dinner, Zhang Yuan resigned, Zhang Dai because he and Bao Han talked about the opera is very similar, Zhang Dai stayed, Zhang Cao was impatient to be restrained in front of the elders, and also resigned with Zhang Yuan, the two rushed to the thatched cottage, and saw that the lecture hall was very lively, some of the students were copying Zhang Yuan's "calligraphy and painting is difficult to be the voice of the heart", and some were discussing how Dong Qichang would be angry when he saw these two articles, and when he saw Zhang Yuan and Zhang Cao coming, the hall was even more noisy, Jin Langzhi and Hong Daotai were particularly angry in Songjiang. Generous statement, to make Dong Qichang ruined - after a discussion, Zhusheng decided to go around to publicize this "calligraphy and painting is difficult to speak of the heart", as for the "record of Dong Eun's evil deeds", Zhang Yuan did not want to publicize it in Hangzhou, this article was written for the common people, and it was more appropriate to publicize it in Songjiang, Zhang Cao said: "Jiezi, the year before last we dealt with that Yao lawsuit, didn't we send people to the neighboring county to let some storytellers say Yao's disgusting ugly things, this trick is also useful against Dong Qichang. ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "Let's talk about this in Songjiang Mansion." ”

Jiao Runsheng said: "This kind of thing is generally storytellers dare not say, I recommend a person, Liu Jingting, a storyteller on the side of Wangxian Bridge in Hangzhou, known as Liu Mazi, this person dares to say, it is rumored that this person still has some martial arts, and he was also a brave and ruthless scoundrel when he was a teenager, his home is in Jiangbei, it seems that he has committed some case, incognito, and lives in the rivers and lakes, this Liu Jingting is not his real name. ”

Zhang Cao smiled and said: "I have heard of this Liu Mazi for a long time, I wanted to invite him to Shanyin to tell a story the year before last, but then I forgot, I must meet him this time, Jie Zi, Ming said that we will visit the Liu Mazi with the eldest brother." ”

Zhang Yuan also wants to see this Liu Jingting, Zhang Dai's "Tao'an Dream Memories", Yu Huai's "Banqiao Miscellaneous", as well as Qian Qianyi, Wu Weiye, these writers and poets have Liu Jingting's storytelling account, praise it to the fullest, think that Liu Jingting's storytelling is a stunt - the sun is setting, the students of the school are scattered after school, Zhang Yuan, Zhang Cao took Wuling, Nengzhu and a few people also went to the canal port, from Nanping Mountain to the canal port, there are sixteen or seven miles of road, and walked to the Ningxiang Restaurant on the south bank of Xihu Lake, Zhang Cao said: " The eldest brother is drinking and listening to music in the South Park, let's have some wine and dinner in this Ningxiang Building, hire a boat to cross the West Lake after dinner, and then go ashore from the broken bridge back to the canal boat is much closer, save some leg effort. ”

The six masters and servants went to Ningxiang Building, ordered some wine and food, and Nengzhu hurriedly ate some pasta, and was sent by Zhang Cao to wait for Zhang Dai in the South Garden, so that Zhang Dai could come to Ningxiang Building for a banquet.

Full of wine and food, Zhang Cao was a little bored, full of warmth and silver, and said to Zhang Yuan: "Jiezi, how about calling two girls to Lele?" ”

Zhang Yuan smiled: "Wait until you go back to the boat to find your white-ass maid to vent your fire." ”

Zhang Cao laughed and said: "If I don't love Lumei's white ass, I'm tired of her, I just want to taste something fresh when I go out. ”

Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes and said: "It's strange, isn't it a dead flower and a willow to remember a girl!" ”

Zhang Cao said seriously: "I just like the new and hate the old, as long as I haven't been destroyed, it's not a broken flower and a willow, I'm like a debut and a bride." ”

Zhang Yuan was speechless.

Zhang Cao smiled and said, "Jiezi, I have a proposal, you can not allow it, but you are not allowed to be angry-"

Zhang Yuan knew what kind of dirty idea he had when he looked at the silver smile on Zhang Cao's face, and said, "Don't say it, I'm definitely angry." ”

Zhang Cao was stunned and said, "Do you know what I'm going to say? ”

Zhang Yuan said: "There are two big characters on your face, don't you see them?" ”

Zhang Cao touched his face that was a little sweaty and said, "Where will there be words!" ”

Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "There is a 'lewdness' on the left side of the face, and a 'obscenity' on the right face. ”

Zhang Cao laughed, knowing that Zhang Yuan really guessed his thoughts, Zhang Yuan neither refused nor dared to mention it again, although Zhang Yuan was one year younger than him, but since the previous year he lost to Zhang Yuan in two bets, he was very in awe of Zhang Yuan, and then Zhang Yuan Sanyuan Lianjie, the means of rectifying Yao's lawsuit stick are bloodless, myopia mirrors, telescopes and these novelties are omniscient, Zhang Cao is even more admired, the eldest brother Zhang Dai is far less than Zhang Yuan so that he is respected-Zhang Cao said: "That Li Xueyi I will win you." ”

Zhang Cao suddenly came out with such a headless sentence, Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then woke up, and said with a smile: "What do Li Shi Niang and me have to do with the old courtyard of Nanjing, the third brother has the silver to smash it." ”

Zhang Cao said: "Jiezi, you don't bet with me?" ”

Zhang Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm not so idle." ”

Zhang Cao said: "It's boring if you don't gamble, let's gamble, when you pretend to be a poor scholar, I am a rich family, see which Li Xueyi, who is known as the first person in Nanjing, loves." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Third brother, the most important thing for me at the moment is to deal with the Songjiang Dong clan, if I can't defeat the Dong clan this time, I will be attacked by it." ”

Zhang Cao said: "How can I not know this, I will definitely help you, but you also have to bet with me, if you want to beat Dong Zuchang all the time, although it is not interesting, although it is not interesting, people have to learn to have fun, to drink as a song, life is geometric." ”

Zhang Yuan laughed: "The third brother is right, people must learn to enjoy themselves. ”

Zhang Cao said happily: "Then you promised to bet with me?" ”

Zhang Yuan said: "If you defeat the Songjiang Dong clan, I will bet with you." ”

Zhang Cao said: "Okay, a word is a certainty." The interest came up, and he sang loudly: "On the battlefield, the red force has three locks of beautiful hair, and the majestic tiger body is shaking, just like the six Ding gods holding a living god, if the enemy army sees it, he will be bluffed and his seven souls will be scattered, and his five souls will disappear——"

This is Guan Hanqing's miscellaneous drama "Guan Dawang Goes to the Single Knife Meeting Alone", Zhang Cao Yiyin himself is Guan Yu, and he is going to break into the Longtan Tiger's Den of the Dong family in Huating alone - after singing for a while, Zhang Dai came, and the sound of gongs and bangs was heard in the distance, "Tuk Tuk-Bang Bang-"

Zhang Yuan got up and said, "Let's go, the store has hired a boat for us." ”

Zhang Yuan's three brothers and Wu Ling and other five servants together on a three-oars wave boat, this kind of boat is also called Hu Yangtou boat, popular in Jiaxing, in Suzhou and Hangzhou called the wave boat, the system is slightly smaller, but can also accommodate twenty people, three oars row back and forth like flying.

Zhang Dai said: "Don't be busy crossing the lake, paddling slowly, it's not interesting to visit the West Lake at night." ”

Zhang Yuan smiled, Zhang Dai and Zhang Cao brothers are very hedonistic people, which is also very good, why rush to cross the lake, take the opportunity to cross the lake to enjoy the moonlight of the West Lake is a positive attitude towards life, I came to the late Ming Dynasty, isn't it for this?
