There is a mansion built in the county, which is managed by the county government, and the nobles rest here when they cross the border, similar to the guest house in later generations. Li You was anxious and ran to the Chengbei Mansion, but saw the sedan chair and the sedan chair driver outside the door, presumably all of them came to visit the boss. Turning his head, the two soap brothers followed unhurriedly, but when they arrived here, they stood still.

Li You entered the gate and grabbed the door, and asked eagerly: "Little brother, I am a yamen commissioner, and I have an urgent matter to find Master Huang, who came here with Chen Zhixian to pay homage to his birthday, please be accommodating." ”

Menzi led Li You to the Yimen at the back of the front hall, where a few messengers were guarding and told Li You about it. The officer guarding the door recognized Li You, so he said: "I will inform you, whether the master sees it or not, but it is not the little ones who call the shots." ”

Li You originally planned to stuff some money into the gatekeepers, who would have thought they would be so easy to talk to.

However, it is said that in a hall in this mansion, more than a dozen people sit in the hall to eat, drink, talk and laugh, a few people accompany each other to drink, and more than a dozen songs and music are played in the hall. In front of everyone is a good feast, with delicacies on land and water, and all kinds of fruits and vegetables.

At this time, it was the time when the wine was over several rounds and the conversation was strong, only to listen to the old man in the first seat gossip: "The old man is in Suzhou Mansion, and he heard that there is an interesting official in Xujiang County, although the person is humble, but he wrote two high-grade wonderful words, the old man listened to the aftertaste endlessly, such words, only the Song Dynasty Yan Xiaoxianggong can be compared." He took a sip of wine and said: "Under the rule of Chen Zhixian, it is really a prosperous talent and a good way of education." ”

Chen Zhixian, who was located in the second seat, said modestly: "The boss has said it, and the lower officials should not be deserved." ”

"I don't know if that Li boy is in the county today? You might as well pass it on for a while. The old man said.

The girl who accompanied the wine for some reason opened her mouth to persuade: "An impudent fanatic, calling to defile the eyes of the honored guest." It turns out that this girl is Yao Xing'er, although she has a reputation for both talent and appearance, she is worried that her chest is not wide, and her self-esteem is also high. If you can't buy words, you feel embarrassed in front of a little servant, and you still have a grudge against Li You in your heart.

The old man ignored her and only looked at Chen Zhixian.

Suddenly, Master Huang, who was sitting at the bottom, interjected and joked: "Coincidentally, this Li Errand really can't stand the worry of distinguished guests, and he is already waiting outside at this time." He had something to look for, but it happened that the distinguished guest talked about him. ”

Saying that, Li You waited for a moment here, and an errand came out and said, "Somehow, ask me to lead you in." ”

Li You followed all the way inside, through two corridors, to a large hall with a plaque with the words Jing Si Tang hanging on it. I could only hear the laughter and laughter inside, and there was an endless stream of orchestral strings, and countless little maids kept shuttling in and out from several doors, Li You knew that this must be the place where the banquet was.

Another servant led Li You into the house and waited in the corner. After waiting for a few minutes, Master Huang turned his head and saw Li You, so he said to Master Zhu, who was in the first seat: "Then Li You has already come." After that, he waved at Li You.

Li You hurriedly stepped forward and kowtowed, "The little one greets the old man and the masters." ”

The old man was slightly drunk and asked, "But if life is only like the first time I saw the elegant officials?" ”

Li You said modestly: "My lord, how dare you call it an elegant word." ”

After speaking, I heard the maid on the side of the escort snorting and smiling, and said a little presumptuously: "The green skin is a good dog, I can know myself, and I will reward you with three taels of silver as the first word." "She has a wide range of self-sustaining friends, and Li You is a small official who can't help her.

Li You raised his eyes and saw that the face of the female melon seed was affectionate, and her appearance was beautiful and elegant. Hearing her talk about three taels of silver, her tone was sour, and seeing that she could sit next to the boss, she guessed that this woman was Yao Xing'er, the name of the city. "I don't know what to do, I dare to tease me like this, and your old bustard is doing evil again, so it's no wonder that the master." Li You, who was annoyed repeatedly, secretly gritted his teeth.

Chen Zhixian and Master Huang were a little unhappy over there, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, no matter how famous Yao Xing'er is, he is just a prostitute, and he really doesn't know how to speak like this on this occasion.

Li You saw that the old man didn't mean to speak, and asked Yao Xing'er pretendedly: "Is this sister who speaks Yao Xing'er, the little one has been admired for a long time, and she is worthy of her reputation when she meets her, and she is willing to give a poem to her sister." Then he said to the boss, "This is a vulgar game, and I am afraid that it will surprise the boss." ”

Master Zhu waved his hand and said, "Okay." ”

Master, this copied poem can disgust Yao Xing'er, you! Li You read slowly: "Twenty-eight beauties skillfully dress up, change the groom in the cave room every night, a pair of jade arms and thousands of pillows, and a little red lips and ten thousand guests..."

I saw that the chopsticks fell one after another, and all the gentry present were all famous gentry in the city, who were stunned for a moment, and laughed invariably. I didn't expect Li You to come up with such a thing, and there is too much psychological gap between "Who Turns the Desolate Song of Yuefu" and "If Life Is Only as First Seen".

Li You continued: "Pretend to be everyone's boudoir girl, pretend to be kind-hearted. ushered in the delivery to know how much, accustomed to lovesick tears. ”

The laughter is even louder, this Yao Xing'er is used to chanting poems, playing the drum and piano, and is affectionate, although the last four sentences are written bitterly, but they are also vivid. Even the other girls couldn't help but smile secretly, in their opinion, Yao Xing'er was a bit contrived, how could other people like this elegant and affectionate tone.

Yao Xing'er's face is snow-white, almost colorless, she is a kind of girl, and she pays great attention to the reputation of a talented woman in Qinglou. It's not the item that's sold, it's the brand. On this occasion where the city is full of celebrities, Li You recited this catchy and innovative crooked poem, and specially named Yao Xing'er, in case it spreads widely, her reputation will be ruined.

Thinking of the terrible consequences of this crooked poem becoming popular under his own name, Yao Xing'er was in pain, and regretted that he should not have deliberately lost his face for his mother, but instead compensated himself. The more I thought about it, the more sad I became, and I stayed here without face, covering my face and crying.

Mr. Zhu has been a eunuch for many years, and he is used to seeing Fengyue, Yao Xing'er still doesn't care about him, but just said to Li You: "I don't want to hear such a funny limerick, but I am also a little crooked." However, it is a bit narrow-minded to insult women's families in this way. ”

I can't give everyone this narrow-minded impression, Li You suddenly shouted: "The boss doesn't know, the villain they killed is going to be dismissed from the errand service, it is obvious that they are at fault first, and I can't complain that the villain will take revenge." ”

Chen Zhixian interjected at this time: "Don't be presumptuous!" Who dismissed you? ”

Li You added fuel and vinegar and said: "Yesterday, Yao Xing'er's old wife Xie came to find the villain, and the Tao was to buy the villain's words in three or two, although the villain is not polite and righteous, but he also knows self-respect and self-love, and he is unwilling to sell words. This Xie old woman threatened the villain and said that he would call Zhou County Cheng to clean up the small one, and he didn't want to say that Zhou County Cheng really found a mistake to get rid of the small one, and the little one came here to find the county master to shout grievances, but he unintentionally collided with the old man here. ”

Mr. Zhu liked these two poems very much after hearing about them from Suzhou Mansion, thinking that although Li You was in a humble position, his ability to write poems also showed that he was a person who knew how to read and improve. Today, I saw Li You seeing that he was young and heroic, and he was a little unspeakably free and natural, so he was a little biased in his heart.

But Mr. Zhu must not criticize the imperial court officials because of Li You's one-sided words, even if it is a small Bapin County Cheng, and reprimand Li Youdao: "The kid dares to speculate privately and talk about official affairs!" He also said to Chen Zhixian: "It's good to find out the matter, don't wronged such an interesting servant." ”

Hearing the song and knowing the elegance, Chen Zhixian bowed and said, "The lower official will deal with this matter when he goes back." ”

Li You dragged the long shadow and walked out of the mansion, thinking about the pavilions and gardens behind him, thinking about the delicacies of the mountains and seas, thinking about the orchestral silk bamboo, looking at the blood-red sunset and muttering: "My generation can only compete with the old bustard and the son!" Don't be willing to do this, don't want to be here! ”
