There are many kinds of women in the Song Dynasty, but there are two kinds of best, they are all in the metropolis, because the color and art are good, in order to show the difference, another courtyard is opened, most of them are wide and quiet, three or four halls, there are halls and houses, there are courtyards and gardens, the courtyard has flowers and mountains, the house is set up with curtains and stones, and there are maids, said left and right history, these women can also write words, can talk, wonderful entertainment, comment on character poetry, answer in an orderly manner.

It is also very expensive, but no matter how expensive, there is an endless stream of big people and jinshi who want to see them, and there are often many servants and horses in front of the door, and there are many extravagant banquets in the house.

It's not Jiang Xing'er, Zhengzhou is smaller, and there is not enough pomp.

It's big, with Jiang Xing'er's simple surname, obsessed with calligraphy, but clumsy in socializing, it still doesn't work.

This is the most brilliant of good notes.

There is also a kind of women, from the family of miscellaneous dramas, each good at silk and bamboo orchestra, singing and dancing, dazzling people's ears and eyes with skills, moving their minds, and often going in and out of the mansion of the powerful and powerful people with color skills, and then tempting the children of Liang, chasing them for pleasure, and then wanting to welcome and refuse, and increase their value.

The latter was also the mainstream of the Song Dynasty, so what activities did scholars have, and invited celebrities to join. For example, after Su Dongpo came to Hangzhou, let each guest take a boat, and then each took a few girls, elected a captain, to the famous places of interest to have fun, the night market was not dispersed before the candle fire returned to the city, Qianji returned, the costume of the horse, stepping on the moonlight, the fragrance of the face, the brilliance was seizing, just like the fairy nether, became a great attraction in Hangzhou at that time.

It's not that Su Dongpo's approach is bad, there were many scholars at that time.

Or Hangzhou's annual boiling of new wine, all have to occupy the present, the wine warehouse hired many famous leaders, holding flowers and drums, or holding the qin, the clothes are reflected, the musical instruments are combined, the memory is charming and charming, complement each other, and then there are the children of the officials holding the candied fruits of all colors, and they frequently persuade the wine in person, and there are the Yu Hou of the palace to open the way for it, and then there are the floating waves of idlers who hold the fan and the clothes of the guards, this wine propaganda team composed of official records, often attracts tens of thousands of citizens to watch.

In history, Wang Anshi changed the law, in order to collect money, let the officials sit and have fun, and lured the people to come to drink in order to get wine money...... The Yi'er mentioned by Cui Xian is one of the two most brilliant beauties.

But the former...... It is alone in a courtyard, and the courtyard is on the side of the West Lake.

There are several orchid cinnamon plants, there are lotus roots in the West Lake outside the courtyard, half flowers and half canopy at this time, not spring, but better than spring.

Without fat powder, the fragrance has been scattered in the clear light.

There were people in the house, but everyone was sad.

In the middle of the night, a middle-aged man with a dark face said, "Uncle Guo, why are you bothering with a little girl? ”

"Zhang Dashanren, why do you bother with me," the man who was called Uncle Guo was in his forties, but he was also a little unhappy at this time.

"Although I didn't accept Yi'er as my daughter-in-law, Yi'er called me my father-in-law back then, and regarded me as my father......"

"Joke, she is a son, such as for my concubine, it is also her honor, you are her father-in-law, why stop it? Could it be that you want to learn from those widows and have a father-daughter match? After "Uncle Guo" finished speaking, several of his entourage behind him burst into laughter.

"Back then......" Zhang Dashan wanted to stop talking.

The so-called uncle of the country is Li Yongde, a big family in Hangzhou, not Li Yonghe came to Hangzhou, if Li Yonghe gave Zhang Dashan ten guts, he would not dare to stop it. He is Li Yonghe's clan brother, and after Concubine Li Chen's life story was revealed by Zhao Yuanyan, Li Yongde came to the capital to visit Li Yonghe. And in the name of the clan, he sent a large number of gifts.

It's the love of the clan, who dares to deny it? Even Fan Zhongyan later saved a sum of money and bought a lot of land to the clan as a righteous field.

Li Yonghe invited Li Yongde to the mansion and talked about it, and sent him away from the capital with great emotion.

In a sense, he is indeed the uncle of the country.

Another person is also very big, is Zhang Daliang, a seaman from Hangzhou, who has often gone to sea since he was young.

In the Song Dynasty of the Wa Kingdom, the merchants showed excellent wisdom of the Chinese people.

The navigation of the Northern Song Dynasty was of little practical significance to the Song Dynasty, on the contrary, a large number of copper coins were lost, but it was pitiful for these merchants to risk life and death in order to make a living, and rushed to and fro on the vast sea. Therefore, the state is a kind of charity attitude, often there are seafarers in distress drifting in the coastal area, regardless of nationality, more help to help, and even after the death of the guest, look for their family, entrust the messenger to bring a letter to the family to bring the wealth back. This is the mentality of a great power.

But the Wa Kingdom was also overwhelmed.

Their system came from the Tang Dynasty, and the precedent was also the precedent of the Tang Dynasty, and the Song goods were placed in the Honglu Pavilion to supply food and clothing. In addition to a small amount of taxes, they also provide for their clothing and food. It is estimated that most of these businessmen went in the name of the imperial court.

But there are too many people coming, and the cost is huge, it is also certain that the people of the Song Dynasty can go to sea by themselves, although there are still many systems in the imperial court to limit the number of sea passengers, but it is definitely more than the Tang Dynasty. No matter what, it is disrespectful to the big country in the Central Plains, and I can't resist it, so I limit the age and give me a passport to come regularly.

also did not get any benefits, but like the Ming Dynasty, due to the large number of people who paid tribute, it became one of the redundant expenses of the imperial court. Moreover, this was the Heian period, when control was very weak.

It's even more wrong, who needs you to care? As in the Song Dynasty, if the surname Suo allowed the Song people, or the Wa Kingdom's own seafarers, to do business freely, not only would it not become a burden, but it would be an important source of income.

It is also a limited surname of the times.

No matter what the Wa State did, there were more and more Song merchants going to sea, and it was not a number counted by the Song Dynasty court, and more than half of them went to sea privately.

Some stayed in the country for a long time, and in order to satisfy their surname, they married two and three wives, became another family, and raised children.

Some also instigated the semi-secessed manor lords to confront the Japanese court, turning the seafood from the official to the private, and being good at dancing with long sleeves, and even influencing the pattern of the Japanese state.

And, of course, killing.

Such a political situation, as well as those things at sea, murder and indulgence in goods cannot be avoided.

Zhang Daliang went to the sea many times when he was young, Hangzhou was mostly engaged in the business of the Korean and Japanese countries, and Quanzhou and Guangzhou were more engaged in the South China Sea food business, so most of them went to the Japanese countries. I've killed people too...... And he has a very wise mind, life and death at sea, lawlessness, a ship is very small, so he united a group of Song people, went to sea in groups, and became the leading brother of Hangzhou seafarers, very prestigious.

More than ten years later, he no longer needs to go to sea in person, just one of his orders is enough to mobilize a large number of sea visitors. A very prominent figure in Hangzhou, Zheng Lang expressed three points of respect for him during the meeting.

But after stopping, Zhang Daliang often reflected, feeling that in the past ten years, he had killed too many people and had a lot of property in his hands, so he gave a lot of charity and did more good deeds, or donated to Lao Shi, or helped the widows and orphans, or set up a township school to fund students. After a long time, people forgot his name and called him Zhang Dashan.

Zhang Daliang is a strong man of the old school, and Li Yongde is a strong man of the new school. With the identity of this country's uncle, it has developed at the same speed, and has rapidly amassed a large amount of wealth in recent years. But the current conflict is something that neither of them wants.

At the center of the conflict is Yi'er.

Yi'er's father is a poor talent, and his mother is beautiful, and she was hired by Li Yongde to serve at home, but after a long time, some bad things happened to the two. Who seduced whom, no one can say clearly.

Yi'er's father came to the door to ask for an explanation, and was beaten up by Li Yongde, but Yi'er's father was a person with a bad temper, and in a fit of anger, he touched a knife and stabbed his wife to death, Li Yongde stabbed him, and committed suicide.

The family is broken.

But Li Yongde could not pay the main responsibility for this matter, and when the government decided the case, he only sentenced him to give Yi'er sister and brother some money and silk, and the case was closed.

In order to survive, Yi'er fell into the prostitution door.

Therefore, Cui Xian said that Yi'er's life was very bitter.

She was born in a scholarly family, her appearance is not weak, and after the careful conditioning of the old bustard, she is becoming more and more famous in Hangzhou.

After the White Snake Legend was staged, the fame was even greater.

But there was a story before, Li Yongde accidentally saw Yi'er, I don't know if he took a fancy to her appearance, or thought of her mother, so he begged for joy. This is an enemy, Yi'er does not agree. But her strength was too small, and when Zhang Daliang came to the workshop, Yi'er bowed to the ground very cleverly, recognized him as her father-in-law, and couldn't cry.

Zhang Daliang vaguely knew something about her, and did not agree immediately.

The people don't fight with the officials, Li Yongde, the uncle of the country, is very light, but after all, it is Li Yonghe's own family, and he is somewhat afraid, but he is merciful in his heart, and secretly covers her a few times.

But with the arrival of Zheng Lang, many things have changed.

If Zheng Lang had not arrived, there would have been no arrival of Lu Gongbi, Han Jiang and others, no one would have recklessly attacked the private salt, and they would not have killed people because they were afraid of Zheng Lang's wisdom.

What also changed Yi'er's fate.

Li Yongde waited impatiently, a good official arrived, and it was not good to behave like before, and there was still that prospect...... So he paid 5,000 yuan and proposed to the old bustard to ransom Yi'er out.

As Zheng Lang's good buddies said, as long as there is money, no matter how good the line is, even if a pig comes to redeem people, the bustard will also loosen his mouth. The old bustard was moved, and Yi'er was anxious, so she sent Nushi, that is, a maidservant girl who was good friends with her, to run to Zhang's house and beg Zhang Daliang to come to the rescue.

Li Yongde sneered: "What did it have to do with me back then?" Zhang Jundon't want to pretend, you are not three wives and four concubines, I heard that there are two little ladies in the Wa Kingdom. ”

"But I don't have a good wife from a bad family."

"It's true that you don't have a good family woman from a bad family, but it's just a murderer."

Zhang Daliang was speechless, and sighed: "If this is the case, I have to pay 6,000 yuan to redeem people." ”

At this point, Zhang Daliang is difficult to ride a tiger, he is not so fierce, he has already passed this time, even if he does good deeds, it will be thousands of times when he makes a move, and it is expensive.

Li Yongde sneered again: "Zhang Dashan really wants a father-daughter match." ”

"He didn't recognize me as a righteous daughter," Yi'er said.

"He didn't treat you as a righteous daughter, why did he protect you for so long, could it be that Zhang Dashan has some weird hobbies?" Lee Yongde continued to be aggressive.

Yi'er couldn't answer either.

It can't be said that Zhang Daliang covets her beauty and hasn't touched himself at all, which is pitying her.

Zhang Daliang said in a low voice: "Uncle Guo, no matter what you say, the old man only asks for a clear conscience, old bustard, give you 6,000 yuan to redeem people." ”

"Seven thousand." Li Yongde persecuted.

Zhang Daliang's expression was a little dazed, if he didn't care about the identity of the other party, he was likely to go back to more than ten years ago and wave his fists. Gritted his teeth and said, "Eight thousand runs." ”

"Zhang Dashanren, I don't understand, even if I take a step back today, you redeem her, how do you plan to support her. What else will she do besides color art and sleeping with her? ”

"You don't want to live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, I will redeem her, give her a book, and let her fend for herself."

"Let her fend for herself, I'm afraid she won't even be able to support herself, and she has a younger brother who wants to study, I'm so scared, maybe her brother will be able to go to high school." Li Yongde said that he was afraid, and his face was full of smiles.

High school, that's that easy. As long as she is in Hangzhou for a day, her younger brother will always be in low school.

"Slaves can make needle money."

But when he said this, even Zhang Daliang didn't take it seriously.

As soon as you enter this door, it is a name, although you are accompanied by a smile to welcome the guests, but life is very luxurious, from simple to easy, from complex to simple, a few women are willing to go back again to live a poor life. It is commendable to be arrogant and commendable not to be a phoenix tail, but why would almost all Meiji rather be a family secretary who is not famous in the scholar's family, rather than be the wife of a poor family?

What kind of money can afford her, even if she has a small standard of living now?

Or she has saved some private money in her hands, so what can she do? To open a store, in addition to selling jokes, what store will she open?

Zhang Daliang's face was cloudy, and Li Yongde said again: "I will give 9,000 guan, if Zhang Jun bids again, I will always add 1,000 guan, it's up to you, you add it, old bustard, listen well, let him add it, he said 20,000 guan, I will give 21,000 guan." ”

Then laughed, although the money was spent a lot, and there was some pain, but today Zhang Daliang was completely knocked to the ground.

It's also a kind of prestige.

But he didn't want to do the same in his heart, after all, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and his identity was better than him, but he still had some fear.

The old bustard trembled, it seemed that the two tigers were fighting, which was a good thing for her, but these two tigers were not easy to mess with, it didn't matter if they provoked Zhang Daliang, Guan Jian was Li Yongde, this is a very thorough villain, if it really adds to 20,000 yuan, do you dare to accept it?

Li Yongde saw that Zhang Daliang was always retreating, and forced him: "Zhang Dashan, it is a good thing to do good deeds, but your time has passed, please accept your fate." ”

Suddenly, there was a voice at the door: "But has my time passed?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Lang walked in with Zheng Ping in his arms, and behind him was a large group of officials, as well as Lu Gongbi.

"I've seen Zheng Fuyin," almost everyone stood up and saluted one by one.

Zheng Lang instructed the servants behind him: "You go to my house immediately, report to my ladies that they are safe, and then call the nurses." ”

The daughter was so hungry that she kept scratching his fingers and sucking them in her mouth.

"Whoa."

Zheng Lang sat down and said to Yi'er: "A few days ago, I would like to thank Yi'er for the show that little lady performed for me. ”

"The slave doesn't dare," Yi'er's eyes flashed with excitement.

Zheng Lang came, she was saved.

Li Yongde frowned, he was very jealous of Zheng Lang, his uncle of the country, was still useful in Hangzhou, but in the eyes of others...... Clear.

Zheng Lang said: "I heard you singing a cappella a few days ago, although it is not very good to use it in the performance of that show, but the singing voice is also beautiful, can you sing a song for a certain one." ”

"That's the honor of a slave," Yi'er's eyes became brighter and brighter, and she said to Nushi, "Please take my Matsuo Zheng." ”

The female history took a handful of zither, Yi'er played the zither, and then sang: "The winter clothes are dyed in the distant mountains...... No matter how many journeys you make. ”

It was Zheng Lang's plagiarized "Drunken Paradise" back then.

"Yi Niangzi used the wrong love, a certain is not your husband, you are not a certain mother, a certain has four wives and concubines, and is already satisfied, whether you are a beautiful jade or a fly, it has nothing to do with a certain one. But I need a few people in my house to do needlework. "This is not true, next year to invite the Weaver Girl to come over to teach the arts, but I can't let a few wives in the family show up again, it will be too hard. It's okay to be pretentious. But everyone didn't understand, and really thought that he needed a servant girl or a concubine who did needlework.

Zhang Daliang had already bowed down and said, "Thank you Governor Zheng." ”

"Zhang Daliang, please get up," Zheng Lang helped him up, and said, "Zhang Daliang, I have a few questions for you." ”

"Excuse me."

"Why are you doing good?"

"Peace of mind."

"Isn't it happy to have peace of mind?"

Zhang Daliang thought about it for a while, and suddenly danced and said, "Governor Zheng's sentence is right in Xiao's heart. Whenever the little one helps one person, seeing their thanks, the little one is very happy in his heart, but he hasn't thought about it all the time. ”

"That is happiness, eating well, dressing well, living well, is a kind of happiness, but why are the people happy after reading the legend of the White Snake, not eating, not wearing, not living, not remembering, the audience does not know tens of thousands, and less than one percent can afford more than a dozen reporters on stage. Why they all like it. ”

"That's ...... entertainment," Lu Gongbi said.

"Yes, this is to entertain the ears and eyes, but to do good deeds is to entertain the soul, the heart is not happy, how to talk about the mouth, tongue, skin, ears and eyes...... There are too many unfair things in the world, some people say how good I am, and I am wrong, I am not so good, I just do my best, help the world, self-protection first, help last. So I often think of Fan Zhongyan, others can be poor and good, and the rich will help the world, which is good, but Doctor Fan is poor and helps the world, how difficult it is to ......" said this and sighed, but Fan Zhongyan had more things to do than himself at this time, did he hurt him...... He also said, "Therefore, everywhere I go, in order to reduce trouble, I do not pay much attention to the past. When it comes to research, three out of ten of the rich have illegal things, and there will be many disputes among the rich. The poor suffer many of them, and it is difficult to cut them off one by one. If you want to be quiet, you have to put aside the past and not mention it, and then give benefits to the monarchs, and persuade the monarchs to do more good deeds with benefits and virtues, just like Zhang Daliang. ”

"The little one dares to be," Zhang Daliang said again.

"Dare to do it, such as the matter of private salt, although it is a violation of national laws and regulations, but I am not a Legalist after all, I am a Confucian, I emphasize morality, benevolence is righteousness, use benevolence and morality, and use righteousness to save it. Righteousness is not a law, benevolence is the foundation, and punishment is supplemented. Therefore, I don't like to be eventful. Influence you, and then give benefits, so that you will no longer break the law and discipline. However, it has been revealed, and due to the system, several people cannot be released. Therefore, do not ask, drag on the interests for the monarchs to see, and then make a quick judgment, then the monarchs will be convinced. It's not for my benefit, it's for all the kings, including the ...... of the kings" Zheng Lang shook his head: "It's too little, I don't blame it, it's a grass creation, you can't see it." I'm not going to take a penny or do it for political performance. Joke, if it is for political achievements, if I return to the capital at the behest of His Majesty, with my ability, wouldn't I be more productive? ”

Speaking of this, his face was sad, this matter was getting bigger and bigger, it had deviated from his direction, and it was even more out of his control, and he didn't like it.

Today, the surname Suo once again made it clear, and said: "Do you like me to tell stories?" ”

Nodding together, I don't think it's appropriate, everyone likes to listen to the white snake biography that the prefect said, and many Qinglou are singing, but he is the prefect, not a storyteller.

Zheng Lang didn't care, and said: "The tiger caught a fox, and the fox said to the tiger, you can't eat me, God sent me to be the leader of the beasts, if you eat me, you will violate the order of God, if you don't believe it, I will walk in front, you are behind, look at the beasts and see me, there is one who does not run away." The tiger believed it and walked with the fox, and when the beasts saw them, they ran away, and the tiger did not know that the beasts ran away because they saw him, and thought that he saw the fox run away, and showed respect to the fox. With the support of the tiger, the fox soon became powerful in this forest, and the beasts dared to be angry and did not dare to speak. A year later, several wild wolves were forced by hunters to flee to the forest. The fox did not know, and rebuked these wild wolves, who had been chased by the hunters for several days, and were hungry, and when they saw the fox, they thought it was crazy, and it happened to be the food they had brought to their mouths. Pounced on it, and in the blink of an eye, it was bitten to death and eaten into the stomach. ”

The fox and the fake tiger are from the Warring States Policy, but Zheng Lang added a paragraph at the end.

He added: "A fox is a fox after all, it is not a tiger, if it continues to maintain its cunning instinct, it can still have a life, but if you really treat yourself as a tiger, there is only a dead end to meet it." ”

It's a very simple truth, as soon as Zheng Lang finished speaking, almost everyone looked at Li Yongde together.

Zheng Lang pulled his finger out of Zheng Ping's mouth, and also looked at Li Yongde and said, "Li Yongde, you are the stupid fox!" ”

Li Yongde's face turned pale.

"I also hinted that maybe Uncle Li Guo ......" Although Uncle Guo, but Zheng Lang had a look of ridicule on his face, Zheng Ping was crying, Zheng Lang had no choice but to stuff his finger into her mouth again, seeing his action, everyone couldn't cry or laugh, but Zheng Lang's face was very unhappy, and continued: "I don't know if I wrote this matter to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will be happy for you, the uncle who has come out more?" I'm not a wolf, and I want to be a good person, but I don't want to be a Zhong Kui once or twice once in a while when I can't bear it anymore! ”
