Chapter Seventy-Four: The Human Heart Can Be Used Even if It Is Fearful
It's December in a blink of an eye, and the Taixue in the capital has been held as usual, but the results have not yet been released, it is the most idle time of the year for the students, and the matter of the abandoned woman opening the house mentioned a few days ago is even more enthusiastic.
This Taixue was originally set up by Yan Taizu, the place is located in the north gate of the capital, covering an area of more than 500 acres, the students are customized but only 300 people are accepted every year, and 200 places are allocated to the states. Of the other 100 places, 10 were recommended by students in the capital, 80 were recommended by court officials, and 10 were given to children from Jiangnan and other regions.
At the end of each year, all students' grades and backgrounds must be announced, and the top ten on each list will be sent directly to the state capital or official's home, and the bottom ten students for two consecutive years, the state government or recommended officials, will also be reprimanded by the doctor of Taixuefu. Therefore, although the future of the students who graduated from Tai College is quite secure, no state official dares to abuse the right to recommend too much.
At noon on this day, students came to Taixue's cafeteria in groups to eat Chinese food as usual. The cafeteria of Tai College is also run according to the old practice of Yan Taizu, and all students can have three free meals with the student name plate, but waste is strictly prohibited. The cafeteria was large enough for seven or eight hundred students to eat at the same time, and there were long tables neatly placed so that students could sit opposite each other and talk freely. Someone brought up the topic recently, but one of the students laughed loudly: "What can I say about those women's complaints, but I have a wonderful poem here, which is really meaty!" ”
When everyone saw it, they recognized it as Qin Haisong from the Faculty of Arts, who was a student who was very good at fun and had the best popularity, and immediately began to coax: "Hurry up, read quickly!" Someone laughed again: "You don't brag again." ”
Qin Haisong said with a straight face: "If I pronounce this poem, there is one person who can say it badly, and I will invite you to drink when I turn around!" The interest of the crowd suddenly hung higher, and some of them whispered: "No matter what he reads later, he must not say it well!" ”
There was a commotion and discussion here, and suddenly more and more people gathered, and Qin Haisong whetted everyone's appetite, so he asked people to go to the nearest classroom to get a set of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, polish the thick ink, and write it word by word on the snow-white rice paper, which is a "Golden Wisp Song": "It is meaningless to be long, but it must be done, the Milky Way is saved, and the whole world is washed." Lin Ge taught to keep the powder, laughing and returning to the clothes. If you are like this, how many can you ...... ancient and modern But there are jade people who often look at their eyes and indulge in famous flowers and wine. The affairs of the world are waiting for the public. ”
After writing the ink, he put it on the wall and laughed, "How? ”
There was silence below, and everyone was silently reciting, and even those who had made up their minds to say something bad threw the wine out of the clouds. Only half-loud did someone say: "It's good, it's good, but the second half is too decadent, but it's not my true colors." ”
Qin Haisong clapped his hands and smiled: "Who said it wasn't?" Guess where I got it? Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he shook his head and sighed: "It is the idle garden of Dongyong Jungong, and now it has been renamed Rouxiang!" ”
Dongyong County Gong? Someone gasped: "He has such talent and ambition? It's a pity! It's a shame too! ”
Qin Haisong shook his head and said: "It's not the county prince's handwriting, it was written by a fellow villager of mine a few days ago when he went to Changhe in the restaurant and saw a Xiucai, saying that it was a good word from Xianyuan, and he copied it at that time, and asked that Xiucai is a masterpiece of the county prince, but Xiucai laughed and said no, it was written by me at the banquet in Rouxiang with another famous person, but the name is not easy to say." Because of the rush of the journey, the villagers did not ask much. You are well-informed, but can anyone know that there is a famous person in our dynasty who can write such wonderful words? ”
Everyone guessed for a long time, and naturally they couldn't do it. Qin Haisong smiled and said: "I got this word yesterday, and I want to know who wrote it, since I am famous, I can naturally find out." If anyone knows who this man is, I will invite him to go out and have a good meal, so that I will not worry about it day and night. I will put this word on the wall today, and those who can answer my confusion will come to me and find me. Everyone responded with a bang, and those who had good deeds, good talents, and boring people naturally inquired everywhere.
Unexpectedly, in the evening, a student just returned from outside and went to the cafeteria to remove the paper, and everyone immediately coaxed, someone hurriedly called Qin Haisong, the news spread, and a large group of students rushed to hear the news.
The student named Guo Kangzhi sat on the bench with a slight smile, and when he saw Qin Haisong, he waved his hand and said, "Go and buy good wine!" ”
Qin Haisong said with a smile: "This is natural, but it's not too late for you to tell who it is before you buy it!" Guo Kangzhi nodded and said word for word: "Princess Ping'an." ”
There was a sudden uproar in the house: this princess's resentment is a hot topic in the past few days, some people ridicule her for being cheeky, and some people sigh that she is amorous and talented. Look at this sentence is pride and romance, but there is no boudoir atmosphere, how can it be from the hand of a woman?
Qin Haisong immediately shook his head and smiled: "Brother Guo's joke is too big!" ”
Guo Kangzhi smiled: "What am I kidding with you?" My brother was a frequent visitor to Xianyuan, I went to ask him in the afternoon, and he immediately recognized it, saying that Princess Ping'an was a pen and ink left on the banquet in Xianyuan by boat more than a month ago. You Morai! ”
Qin Haisong shook his head but didn't believe it, Guo Kangzhi gradually became anxious: "Who are you and me, are you greedy for your two glasses of wine?" ”
Qin Haisong said: "The ancients, poetry is the voice of the heart, I want to be the princess of peace, just write about my grievances, how can a woman or an abandoned woman write such an atmospheric and chic poem?" Kill me and don't believe it! ”
Guo Kangzhi sneered: "Believe it or not, this word is made by Princess Ping'an!" ”
The two argued, so they simply made a bet, but the bet was proposed by Qin Haisong: the loser would run around the academy with a sign saying "I was wrong".
Suddenly, there were people who were good with Qin Haisong, or those who didn't believe that women could do such lyrics and songs, so they supported Qin Haisong, and some were familiar with Guo Kang, knowing that this person wouldn't talk nonsense, the two groups of people fought upside down. It is the time before the holiday when there is nothing to do, and the bets are exciting again, and more and more people are joining the gambling game.
For the next two days, the two groups of people quarreled every day, and the well-informed students naturally searched around for information and tried to find the truth. In the end, a student from the Changhe side got the handwritten letter of the director of the Changhe Guild Hall: This word was indeed made by Princess Ping'an.
In Taixue, the side that wins the argument is naturally elated, and the loser is inevitably puzzled. I hope to lose the bet, so at noon that day, there were more than 100 students, all of whom held up a "I was wrong" sign and ran around the Tai Academy, and this gambling game suddenly became a big news in the streets and alleys of the capital, and no one knew about it with a song "Golden Wisp Song" in a blink of an eye.
At dinner that day, Qin Haisong scolded in the cafeteria: "It's all because the rumors are wrong, who said that Princess Ping'an is an abandoned woman?" If you write a grudge against you, is it an abandoned woman? That wrote the golden wisp, she must not be a man? ”
There was an older student named Zhao Mingzhi who was considered an older student in the academy and sighed: "Those who are full of literary talents don't have to be confined to their own family, and the Holy Emperor is so eloquent, doesn't there also 'flowing water and flowers fall in spring, heaven and earth' to complain?" Where is the real situation? Poets of the previous dynasties, didn't there often be people who used their girlfriends to express their thoughts on unmet feelings, could they all be pretended to be women? ”
In the past few days, it is An Bin of the Academy of Rites who likes to write to admonish the court to stop opening the princess's mansion, and immediately retorted: "Even if you can't count the grievances, if you are not an abandoned woman, how can you ask for marriage and come back by yourself?" What kind of heavenly master do those six disciples believe, do we also believe in it? ”
Zhao Mingzhi smiled and said, "I don't believe in Heavenly Master either, but I believe in myself." Ying Zheng said, you all say it is ridiculous, but I think the saying of the abandoned woman is only afraid that it is even more absurd, Princess Ping'an's talent is needless to say, she is also known as the first beauty of Dayan, and she is that kind of identity, who will not enter her house for three years because she took the initiative to ask for marriage? Everyone is a man, think about it! The men around him laughed understandingly.
An Bin was speechless for a while, and suddenly sneered again: "Isn't that Du Jiaerlang a silver-like pewter spear head?" Immediately, a student from Jiangnan said: "I know this, Princess Ping'an didn't leave, the Du family helped the side room with a big belly, and now I'm afraid that the children will be born." He sighed again: "I originally thought that you Dayan people were strange, over there in Jinling, as soon as the word princess spread, no one did not feel sorry for it, my brother also sighed when he wrote to him, the capital Jiangnan Lingxiu, why is the aura of the world concentrated on a Dayan woman!" Why do you insist on putting the name of the abandoned woman on your own princess? ”
Zhao Mingzhi laughed loudly: "It seems that Du Jiaerlang is not a silver-like pewter spear head, but some people with a silver-like pewter spear head will believe that there is a talented and beautiful beauty to marry, and marry back home, but he can not touch it!" ”
Since then, when someone talks about Princess Ping'an as an abandoned woman, some people will laugh maliciously: "Aren't you a silver-like pewter spear head?" It was An Bin, who was the most angry, and even wanted to go to the court, but he had nothing to say at this time. Within two days, the joke spread quickly among some young officials in the DPRK and China.
On this day, when An Bin came home from Tai Academy, he was inevitably depressed: one of his brothers was the Shang Shufang of the East Palace, and he was told to talk more about Princess Ping'an in Tai Academy, and she was not worthy of opening a mansion. Naturally, the recommendation to the East Palace promised by my brother is also soaked in the soup!
The more An Bin thought about it, the more unwilling he became, and suddenly the donkey cart he was sitting on stopped, and when he looked at it, he was blocked by the team in front of the rice store. As soon as An Bin asked the coachman, he knew that because it was only more than half a month before the New Year, the "Fei" brand rice shop in the capital had to distribute New Year's rice to the poor households in the capital at this time of year, which was the legacy of Princess Fei back then. This scene fell in his eyes, and An Bin's heart couldn't help but move.
