Volume 2 Nanyang Chapter 65 Tang Bohu [2]
Chapter 65: Tang Bohu [2]
Tangjia Town is nothing more than a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are not many taverns in itself.
Zhu Houhuang sat down in a tavern and ordered a few Jiangnan side dishes.
Jiangnan flavor Zhu Houhuang hasn't eaten it for a long time. Such a pure Jiangnan side dish tastes great.
Zhu Houhuang enjoys the delicious food of Jiangnan, but Wu Xingzhi is not in the mood anymore, he grew up in Jiangnan since he was a child, and he has no heart to taste any Jiangnan flavor. After chattering a few chopsticks, he couldn't help but say: "Palace--Childe, it was a small mistake to make Childe suffer an insult out of thin air." ”
Zhu Houhuang smiled lightly and said, "Nothing? In fact, I didn't like Tang Yin very much. ”
"What do you say? In my opinion, although Tang Bohu is a Xie Yuan, he enjoys prestige in Jiangnan. But in my eyes, it's not enough. ”
Wu Xingzhi said in a low voice: "Your Highness, be cautious." ”
Zhu Houhuang looked left and right, but saw these people in the tavern, looking over one by one. In particular, there was an old man next to him, and there was a strange look in his eyes.
Wu Xingzhi said: "This is Tangjia Town, and most of them are surnamed Tang. It is Tang Yin's home. Your Highness is cautious. ”
Zhu Houhuang showed an embarrassed look.
Native to his hometown, Tang Yin is the pride of the Tang family. Zhu Houhuang said this. Be careful of being beaten by the Tang family.
"Well, little brother, you're right. I've long seen Tang Yin's thing unpleasant. Tell me why you don't like Tang Yin. The old man came over and sat down on Zhu Houhuang's one.
Zhu Houhuang said: "What do you say? The husband is self-cultivation, governing the country and leveling the world. Tang Yin made himself skip three meals, and his wife was separated. Even if you have a high level of attainment in calligraphy and painting, what is the use? ”
The old man slapped the table and said, "Okay." For this sentence, it should be a big white. He didn't look rusty at all, and poured himself a glass of wine.
"Is the old gentleman from the Tang family?" Wu Xingzhi said: "We are from Yongwangfu, and we came to invite Mr. Liuru, but Mr. Liuru saw it, so he complained. I would also like to ask for your forgiveness, sir. ”
Anyway, this is Tang Yin's hometown, this old man may have a relationship with Tang Yin. It's always bad to say more about Tang Yin's not.
The old man said: "I have long looked down on Tang Yin's poor and sour appearance. If you don't study on the right path, you can't even support your family, and you still look high. A look that no one looks down on. I really don't know this, where does he get his sense of superiority. ”
Zhu Houhuang drank two glasses of wine and said: "Exactly, no matter how good the calligraphy and painting skills are, it is just a small way, what use can it be?" Is the law governing the country really in the Four Books and the Five Classics? Not necessarily. ”
The old man drank a glass and said, "Yes, what can it do." ”
"Also, he came to be involved in the fraud case. I don't know what to say. Zhu Houhuang's wine is not high, and he doesn't feel anything when he drinks rice wine, but his stamina is relatively large, Zhu Houhuang's wine strength came up, and he looked like he was pointing at the country, and said: "If he really cheats, it is a matter of morality, and if he is talented or not virtuous, this person can't use it." If he didn't cheat, he was framed. That shows that his cleverness is just a little cleverness, and he can't see clearly in big things, and he is actually used as a scapegoat. ”
The old man slammed another drink, "Smack." With a bang, he placed the wine glass heavily on the table. said: "That's a good point. ”
Wu Xingzhi was a little anxious. There weren't many people in the tavern, but they all looked at it with a strange look, and the atmosphere was a little weird. He carefully kicked Zhu Houhuang's foot.
Zhu Houhuang looked at Wu Xingzhi a little strangely and said, "Okay, what's wrong?" ”
Wu Xingzhi didn't know what to say.
"Okay, little brother, it's so insightful, I've never seen anyone say that about Tang Yin'er." I don't know why, there was a feeling of gnashing teeth in the old man's words.
"It's useless to be a scholar." Zhu Houhuang said.
"It's useless, it's a scholar." The old man couldn't help but admire: "Can there be a whole couplet? ”
"Whole?" Zhu Houhuang couldn't help tilting his head to think about it, and said with some doubts: "Nine out of ten people are white-eyed, and none of them are scholars?" ”
This sentence was in the old man's mind, and he felt sad for a while, and felt that this sentence was too much in line with his own voice, and he couldn't help laughing, and there was no sadness in his voice. He chanted: "Nine out of ten people are white-eyed, and none of them are scholars." ”
The same 14 words, when they came out of Zhu Houhuang's mouth, tasted the same as chewing wax, and there was nothing surprising about it. But reading it from the mouth of this old man, if it makes the scalp tingle, sad and helpless, all kinds of feelings come to the face.
The old man didn't say a word and pushed the table up. He turned around and left.
Zhu Houhuang said: "What's the matter? Anyway, I was happy and left. ”
"Happy?" Xiao Er, who came to serve the wine, sneered, slammed a jar of wine on the table, and said, "That is the Mr. Liuru you are looking for." ”
"That's Tang Bohu?" Zhu Houhuang, who was originally slightly drunk, woke up all of a sudden. He looked at Wu Xingzhi and Wu Ming embarrassedly, and said, "Eat quickly, after eating, let's go back." ”
Zhu Houhuang secretly hated himself for talking too much, and after this scene, he had no idea at all about inviting Tang Yin to be a staff member.
Tang Yin stumbled down the street, muttering repeatedly: "Nine out of ten people are white-eyed, and none of them are scholars." Useless is a scholar. He subconsciously walked towards his peach blossom hermitage, stumbled to the peach forest, and suddenly saw a flame jumping, Tang Yin suddenly woke up, looked in the direction of his peach blossom hermitage in the distance, and instantly felt a basin of cold water splashing down from his head.
The place where the fire broke out was Tang Yin's Peach Blossom Temple.
Tang Yin instantly remembered the resentful look in his eyes when King Ning came to make him go. "Such a ruthless method, if I still stay in my hometown, I'm afraid not only me, but even my family will be threatened."
Tang Yin's wife is separated, and he has only one daughter, who is already married. He couldn't help but think about her.
"Xie Yuangong, why don't you go to put out the fire?" Several villagers found out about the fire here and hurriedly came to help put out the fire, but Tang Yin waved his hand and said, "No need, it can't be saved." ”
Indeed, his peach blossom nunnery is not by the river, and there is no water around, and the fire has already burned, and it can't be saved at all. Tang Yin didn't even look at the Peach Blossom Nunnery that was on fire, and turned around and returned to Tangjia Town. Ran to the tavern and asked, "How many people are there?" ”
Xiao Er said: "Xie Yuangong, they are already gone. Do you want us to find a few people to teach him a lesson? ”
Tang Yin didn't answer at all, and immediately ran to the dock in Tangjia Town.
"King Ning acted unscrupulously, and he was by no means kind to his generation, and Shilin rumored that King Ning had the intention of rebelling, which was by no means groundless. I must not get together with King Ning, I have nothing for my life. But the Tang family must not be implicated. ”
Tang Yin has very few siblings, only one younger brother and one younger sister. He would never want to involve them in his own affairs.
"And King Ning came to make the matter of setting fire to the house, if I refuse again, I am afraid they will attack me. Fortunately, now there is King Yong in the town, King Yong is the emperor's cousin, and he has a good relationship with His Majesty, and there will be absolutely no idea of rebellion. ”
Although Tang Yin is in the countryside, he has the world in mind and is not familiar with the changes in the court, but he can still sort out the general changes.
For example, the relationship between King Yong and Zhengde, and the difference between King Yong's feudal domain this time.
Therefore, Tang Yin concluded that although it is not good to listen to King Yong's subordinates, there will definitely be no danger, even if it is King Ning, he must give King Yong some face.
"Hey, I wasn't a minor official of the Zhejiang clan at the beginning, but today I am inevitably humiliated by the vassal king."
Tang Yin came to the dock and saw that Zhu Houhuang and his party were just boarding the boat, so he immediately stopped them, stepped forward and said: "In the lower Tang Yin, the name of His Royal Highness King Simuyong is specially recommended." ”
Zhu Houhuang was taken aback, he never expected Feng Hui Lu to turn to this point, but he had some doubts in his heart, what he said just now can be said to be extremely vicious. Why did this Tang Yin still come to join him? What made him change his mind?
No matter what Zhu Houhuang thought in his heart, he said: "With Mr. Tang's help, great things can be done." ”
"Big deal." Tang Yin chuckled in his heart, and said secretly: "I won't just get out of the tiger's den and enter the wolf's den again." ”
