Yangzhou Cultural Association was held here in Slender West Lake, and the talented people in Fang Yuan's left and left were interested in coming here to join in the fun, which was the Zhen family in Jinling City, and the people of the four major families of Jia Wang Shi Xue stayed here, and even though the ordinary people of Fang Yuan did not have any literary brilliance, this lively heart would also be surrounded by Slender West Lake.

The official lady sits on a high-rise boat.

Influenced by texts such as talented and beautiful women, too many talented people want to see a beautiful woman of their own here, with a background and status, so that they can complete the counterattack and stand above tens of thousands of people.

In this crowd, there is a person wearing a green cloth coat, garlic nose, is an eighteen-year-old man, called Liu Er, holding a painting scroll in his hand, looking at the images in the painting paper, all of which are not seen in the literary society, in terms of appreciation, that is, he is illiterate, does not understand pen and ink, the difference between superior paintings and inferior paintings can still be seen at a glance.

This scroll was picked up by him in the literary meeting, on the rice paper, someone Zhuo Li, wrote four verses left and right, after picking up this scroll, Liu Er never thought of returning the scroll to its original owner, but was looking at the people around it, looking for someone to sell.

With this sum of money, it was enough for him to do something that he had never wanted to do before.

"Huh? Take this picture scroll for me to take a closer look. ”

Zhen Baoyu has a house slave around, and the place where he is located is the area that the Zhen family occupied earlier in this one, condescendingly, seeing that this Liu second-hand picture scroll is extraordinary, he stretched out his hand to ask for it.

As soon as Zhen Baoyu said, a few house slaves went down and walked straight towards Liu Er.

Liu Er already had a ghost in his heart, and this picture scroll was picked up, at this time, with the heart of selling paintings, when he saw this slave coming menacingly, he was scared at first, and turned his head and ran towards the crowd.

"Kill! Quick, find him. ”

Zhen Baoyu waved his fan and shouted at the house slave.

In Zhen Baoyu's home, there are also several sisters and sisters, just like Jiafu's Spring Exploration and Spring Cherishing Spring, in addition, this Zhen Baoyu also has his own good sister, just like Lin Daiyu in Jia Baoyu's heart, it is a boarding home.

And this good sister has a lot of love for poetry and songs, that picture scroll looks extraordinary, Zhen Baoyu came out, and wanted to write down a few poems, buy a few picture scrolls, and take them home and enjoy them carefully with her good sister.

Although the picture scroll has not been seen completely, the meaning is already extraordinary, and Zhen Baoyu is in love.

After the house slave heard Zhen Baoyu's words, he continued to chase after Liu Er.

On the river.

Lin Dong, Daiyu, Qingwen, Zijuan, and Xueyan sat inside the cabin, silently looking at everything outside, watching Liu Er take the scroll away.

"You've gone astray."

Seeing this, Qingwen said to Lin Dong: "This scroll did not fall into the hands of Zhen Baoyu, but fell into the hands of the laity, he doesn't know the content of this scroll, what should you do?" ”

Lin Dong's casual painting scrolls, from the painting skills, shade rendering, are all unprecedented in the world, the picture scroll thrown out is all the collection of Yangzhou Jinling picture scrolls, are not as good, but this kind of picture scroll, in the hands of people who know how to do, is a priceless treasure, in the hands of people who don't know how to do, that is waste paper.

"This picture scroll was originally intended for Liu Er."

Lin Dong smiled and said: "Liu Er, a person from Liujia Village on the outskirts of Yangzhou, his parents died early, and only one sister is with him. ”

Lin Daiyu covered her ears.

What I heard here in Lin Dong before was the evil relationship between Jia Zhen and the Qin family.

Now I hear it here in Lin Dong again, it is my brother's distraction from my sister.

When Lin Daiyu heard these words, she was not curious, but disgusted.

"It turns out that you want to borrow the hand of the Zhen family to teach this Liu Er a lesson."

Qingwen will only understand.

"No, there's another person who hasn't been involved, and this is just happening to come in."

Sitting in the cabin, Lin Dong was confident, the cause and effect in it, Lin Dong looked at the pattern in his palm, as long as he gently flicked a little, he could make the cause and effect implicated, and things would come naturally.

Another person Lin Dong said, I had heard Lin Ruhai mention it before, that is, because of the attempted insult to the woman, the one who finally married the woman, can settle things with money, and he also has a small amount of money in his family, which can be regarded as a noble family, and at this time he is also in this venue, surnamed Niu, called Niu Ping, and his family is in business.

This person is a typical example of "if you like it, you will go to strong X".

Liu Er ran in the venue with a picture scroll, this literary meeting, the talents are all rich people, even if they are poor disciples, they also have money to charter boats, so those who walk on the shore are mostly ordinary people who come to join in the fun, ordinary people are afraid of things, seeing that there is a chase here, they hurriedly make way for the two sides, and this Liu Er ran, and knocked Niu Ping's stall to the ground without paying attention.

At this moment, Niu Ping didn't let Liu Er go, Liu Erzhong didn't know what to do with the picture scroll in his hand, and the servants of the Zhen family over there also followed, and the noisy three people gathered together.

The Zhen family is a Jinling family, but not too many people know about it in Yangzhou, and the servant of the Zhen family is a person who has always been rampant and domineering.

In the midst of such chaos, a pretty woman passed by the lakeside of Slender West Lake, with an innocent look on her face, looking at the rare open curfew and the lively scene of the night.

In the literary meeting, it is just a competition of poetry and songs.

There is a high-rise building on the side of the river embankment, and the officials on the Yangzhou side and the people in the academy are all inside, and the people below are even composing poems, and then some people copy the poems into a book, record such things, and spread them.

This is an opportunity for talented people to become famous, and there are also "gunmen" in the homes of the wang family, at this time a topic is thrown, or prepared earlier, or there are "gunmen" to write on behalf of them, and all kinds of poems are flocking up, but they are also in line with the "prosperous era of the literary world" that the officials above. ”

Someone above came up with a question, Daiyu also wrote silently below, such a lively scene, lasted for several hours, after all, there were a few quatrains in it, which could be suppressed for a while, and the follow-up people couldn't hold it down, so the article would be dispersed.

After Zhen Baoyu returned to the courtyard, he learned from the mouth of the Zhen family that the servants were arrested and all of them were detained in the yamen.

It's just that the recent Yangzhou because of the salt patrol Yu Shi Lin Ruhai and the prefect are close friends, the two of them are in the same breath, and they want to do righteous things, the greeting of the Zhen family does not work at all, it is a greeting, and this person has never released him, and he is still detained, without taking into account the Zhen family in Jinling.

And in this Niu Ping's family, Liu Er's family also heard that people were locked up in the yamen, and the two families also hurriedly operated to fish out these two people.

After dawn, Zhen Baoyu came to Yangzhou Mansion, and after the report, someone greeted him.

"Although this matter is small, this Yangzhou place is no better than other places, and it does not take favors, and after the trial of this case, what should be done, what should be done, Zhen Gongzi does not have to worry too much."

The person who greeted Zhen Baoyu was the prefect's confidant, and he spoke with a single glance, blocking Zhen Baoyu's desire to greet and release people.

Yangzhou's salt patrol imperial history Lin Ruhai is the emperor's hand-picked, after the initial recovery of serious illness, and Yangzhou prefect changed the style of the past, for the official upright, iron-faced selfless, operating around Yangzhou, all for the people, so it has been supported by the people, they are the people below, they have less oil and water, each has its own grievances, but under the pressure of these two, but they have put themselves in the right position, should no longer be like before.

"He got my order to get the scroll."

When Zhen Baoyu heard this, he said: "When I came to this Yangzhou city, I only participated in the cultural meeting, and now is the time to go back, how can I leave him here alone, but I will lose money, there is a hundred taels of silver here, so I will release him, and let me return as scheduled, so as not to worry about the two elders in the family." ”

This gift of money, the person opposite changed color, and began to shake his face at Zhen Baoyu, angrily saying that this was harming him, in desperation, Zhen Baoyu did not dare to say presumptuous, and the words changed, saying that it was to see the slave, this was allowed, and the other party also agreed, but it made Zhen Baoyu consciously fight for face.

There are many bad luck in the prison, and as a nobleman, he also avoids it.

Before Zhen Baoyu came here, he changed into ordinary clothes, and when he went out, he was going to throw away the clothes, and in the prison, the servants were not badly injured except for some injuries on their bodies, and they were not in serious trouble, listening to what the messenger said, their affairs were not big, and after the trial, they were mostly education-oriented, Zhen Baoyu walked out, and when he got to the door, he heard Liu Er's sister and Niu Ping's wife talking on the side.

"In this world, most of the officials harm officials, and the ones who really harm the people are only officials, errand soldiers, relatives of officials, and servants of officials."

Niu Ping's wife said: "These people have no official responsibility, but they have official power, they only know how to make profits, they are attached to the grass and trees, and the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty. ”

Liu Er's sister echoed on the side and said: "Who said no, fortunately, the laws of this Yangzhou land are strict and follow the rules, if it is changed to another place, there is such a thing, it is really a Qing rice tank, for people Tang Ding, we fall into their hands, and we can only be slaughtered." ”

The speaker of these two sentences was unintentional, but Zhen Baoyu heard it clearly on the side, ashamed and ashamed.

He is a character like Jia Baoyu, he can only listen to women's words, and what he appreciates is the beauty of girls, at this time, listening to what these two people are talking about, Zhen Baoyu feels that the knowledge of these two women is far above him, and the words in his mouth make him extremely ashamed.

Isn't he the relative of the official, and the one in prison is also the servant of the official?

It turns out that in the past, he did ordinary things, but he knocked on people's bone marrow?

Thinking of this, Zhen Baoyu couldn't help but feel cold.
