The twelfth white rabbit wears a crown twelve
Just when Qin Tai ran into walls everywhere and was about to be cornered, a soldier came to Qin Tai. said that a soldier in a military camp wanted to see Qin Tai, so Qin Tai had no choice but to follow this soldier who passed the word to a military camp outside Nanjing.
When Qin Tai saw this joining the army, he almost didn't believe his eyes. This soldier turned out to be Tan Lun Tan Zili who he knew. Tan Lun is a good friend of Zhang Juzheng, and like Zhang Juzheng, he is a student of His Royal Highness King Yu. King Yu, as the person who will inherit the emperor in the future, of course, the people around him are all capable military generals. Yuwang's seat teacher, that is, the nominal teacher, is the second assistant Xu Jie. The real lecturer is the priest of the Ministry of Rites, the priest of the wine high arch. In fact, the two attendants who really taught King Yu were Zhang Juzheng and Tan Lun. Gao Gong is just King Yu's husband, and Xu Jie is only a nominal name. In fact, only Zhang Juzheng and Tan Lun know what King Yu thinks best, and after King Yu ascends the throne in the future, these two people will definitely be the most relied on right-hand man of the new emperor.
When Qin Tai was in the capital, Zhang Juzheng often dragged Qin Tai to eat at his house. Zhang Juzheng was born in a wealthy family, and he has been clothed and fed since he was a child, and he has no wife by his side, so he can't help but have a bit of a romantic affair. Zhang Juzheng's wife serves her father-in-law at home and takes care of Zhang Juzheng's children at the same time. Zhang Juzheng is in the capital, while being the attendant of King Yu, he is working in the Criminal Department, but in fact, he usually has no time to be nostalgic. But it was so coincidental that an "Oiran" aroused Zhang Juzheng's interest, and soon after, this "Oiran" became good and became Zhang Juzheng's wife. With the care of this "Oiran" lady, coupled with a few pairs of Chinese medicine prescribed by Qin Tai, Zhang Juzheng suddenly became a lot younger. Zhang Juzheng dragged Qin Tai to drink and chat at his house all day long, and once he was drunk and asked his little wife to introduce a lady to Qin Tai.
Tan Lun, as Zhang Juzheng's brother, is also King Yu's attendant, so the relationship between the two of them is also good. Qin Tai met Tan Lun at Zhang Juzheng's house, and Tan Lun was also very interested in this little brother Qin Tai. Tan Lun and Zhang Juzheng are both geniuses, and they are both "prodigies" who have been well-known to everyone since childhood. When he heard that Zhang Juzheng admired Qin Tai's "erudite and strong memory", he had long wanted to try it with Qin Tai. In Zhang Juzheng's house, a non-murderous competition began.
The two sides of the battle are Professor Guozijian of the Ministry of Rites, Tan Lun, the attendant of King Yu, and Qin Tai, the criminal department of the Criminal Department, and the host and notary are Lang Zhong of the Criminal Department and Zhang Juzheng, the attendant of King Yu. The topic of the competition is that Zhang Juzheng randomly selected two books from many books and handed them to both parties, and each person had a stick of incense to read. When the time is up, the contestants are asked to recite the original text in the book. Allow three mistakes and help or ask for help once. Which side has more recital, the complete reciting is the winner.
Tan Lun got a copy of "Wenxin Carving Dragon", but Qin Tai got "Sou Shen Ji". Both books are relatively unpopular books, Tan Lun once read "Wenxin Carving Dragon", but he never read it completely. "Sou Shen Ji" is an ancient mythological novel, which has too many character names and place names. Zhang Juzheng actually watched it for a long time, but he didn't remember so many names and place names. In contrast, Tan Lun's "Wenxin Carving Dragon" is much easier than Qin Tai's "Sou Shen Ji".
The "Oiran" lady lit a pillar of incense, and Zhang Juzheng sat on the side and watched the two contestants. Tan Lun and Qin Tai are two people with similar personalities, Tan Lun is atmospheric, but his personality is relatively straightforward, a bit like King Yu's teacher Gao Gong. When he reads a book, he never pays attention to the subsections, and while reading the book, he sells it and flips through the book with his own saliva. This made Zhang Juzheng and the "Oiran" lady feel disgusted. On the other hand, although Qin Tai was slow, he looked very carefully. His gentleness and elegance made Zhang Juzheng and the "Oiran" lady light up their eyes. Zhang Juzheng's eldest son is only three years younger than Qin Tai, and Zhang Juzheng really hopes that his son can be as capable and elegant as Qin Tai. The "Oiran" lady thinks that Qin Tai is a good man, if she hadn't married Zhang Juzheng from Liang, if she hadn't been a few years older than Qin Tai, this well-informed woman would definitely not let Qin Tai go.
The time for a stick of incense passed immediately, Tan Lun watched "Wenxin Carving Dragon" three times, and Qin Tai only finished watching "Sou Shen Ji" for the second time. "Oiran" lady is a little aggrieved for Qin Tai, "Sou Shen Ji" is not only much longer than "Wenxin Carving Dragon", but also the content is also very messy, many names, place names are not counted, but also involves mythology, Taoism and other schools of thought. Fundamentally, it's unfair, and the time for a stick of incense is too short, and it is not enough for the average person to read it once or twice.
Then came the formal competition between the two, and Tan Lun first recited "Wenxin Carving Dragon". Tan Lun recited most of it in one go, of course, two or three mistakes, and then with help for help, Tan Lun reluctantly recited sixty percent of "Wenxin Carving Dragon". Although Zhang Juzheng did not open his mouth to praise Tan Lun, he couldn't help but pay attention to this colleague.
Qin Tai began to recite it, but as soon as he spoke, the other three were dumbfounded. Qin Tai did not recite his "Sou Shen Ji", but Tan Lun's "Wenxin Carving Dragon". After Qin Tai recited "Wenxin Carving Dragon" word for word, the three of them were already numb. Tan Lun's face was frustrated, Zhang Juzheng's surprise, and the shock of the "Oiran" lady. Then Qin Tai recited the "Sou Shen Ji" that he wanted to recite, and he also recited it word for word.
Zhang Juzheng was speechless, because he knew that Qin Tai had not seen any religious myths since he was a child, and he didn't even know the name of "Sou Shen Ji". The "Oiran" lady directly became a nymphomaniac, if it weren't for the maid on the side pulling her, she would have jumped directly into Qin Tai's arms. What talented woman doesn't love amazing geniuses?
Tan Lun came up with an acceptable reason for himself, and he asked Qin Taidao, "Little brother, have you read these two books a long time ago?" Already memorized? ”
Qin Tai shook his head and said, "Brother Tan, junior brother, I haven't seen these two books. The first time the younger brother of "Sou Shen Ji" watched it, the "Wenxin Carving Dragon" in your hand, the younger brother has not even seen it. ”
Tan Lun didn't believe it, how could he know what was written in the book without reading it?
Qin Tai said again: "Brother Tan, I listened to you read it, junior brother. I listened to you three times, you memorized it again, not completely, but I listened almost four times. Of course I will. I can memorize a normal book by reading it once, or listening to it twice. But it can't be too long, and it can't be too profound, or I'll forget. ”
Tan Lun was speechless, and Zhang Juzheng was numb. The "Oiran" lady on the side finally controlled her emotions and asked Qin Taidao: "Lord Qin, how long will it take for you to forget the books you have memorized or read?" ”
Qin Tai replied, "Some scriptures, or those you don't understand, you may forget them for half a day or a day. Esoteric, too long articles are forgotten in two or three days. Some classics, some concise articles are about ten days or so. The bulletins that I read often, the files that I often have to memorize, usually I repeat them every fifteen days to a month. Qin Tai replied naturally, but the three of them were already completely stupid.
Tan Lun and Zhang Juzheng no longer dared to boast about their past in front of Qin Tai, compared to their past, Qin Tai had to be described as perverted. Tan Lun almost thought that Qin Tai was a goblin, not a normal mortal. Zhang Juzheng also faced this Qin Tai again, and this Qin Tai must be extraordinary. It was also at this time that Zhang Juzheng really wanted to win over Qin Tai. It doesn't matter if Qin Tai doesn't want to join Xu Jie's party, as long as Qin Tai is Zhang Juzheng's friend and will help Zhang Juzheng in the future. Zhang Juzheng promised to train Qin Tai to become his right-hand man, at least Qin Tai was a good subordinate.
Tan Lun told King Yu about Qin Tai's deeds, and King Yu also wanted to meet this Qin Tai. It's a pity that when King Yu just said that he wanted to see Qin Tai, Qin Tai had already received an order to go to Jiangnan to investigate the case. King Yu had no choice but to say to Zhang Juzheng that he would see Qin Tai after Qin Tai returned. I didn't expect Qin Tai to make such a fuss in Jiangnan, and it is estimated that Qin Tai doesn't have to think about returning to the capital in the past few years.
After Tan Lun came to Zhejiang, he was familiar with the military affairs and government affairs here. Because he is also in charge of the military preparation of Zhejiang, he is also in charge of the recruitment work of Zhejiang Province. On the other hand, he inquired about Qin Tai's whereabouts. It's okay not to ask, but when I inquire, Tan Lun was terrified. Qin Tai not only dug up the treasure of Emperor Jianwen, but also privately gave a large amount of property to Hu Zongxian. In a small place, he discovered the stronghold of the Japanese and pulled out this secret den. Qin Tai also went to Qianqiu Pavilion and dared to meddle in royal family affairs. When Tan Lun hurriedly prepared to write a letter to inform Qin Tai and persuade Qin Tai not to cause trouble again, Qin Tai became famous again. This time, Qin Tai transferred soldiers from the Kunshan military camp to surround the old palace in Nanjing, and took down Chen Yuan, the eunuch guarding Nanjing. Tan Lun didn't dare to intervene, this matter was too big, and only Emperor Jiajing could solve it. Later, Emperor Jiajing did not blame Qin Tai, which was a great blessing for Qin Tai. After hearing that Qin Tai became the new Fujian steward of the Criminal Department, Tan Lun began to think of a way to get past Qin Tai. Qin Tai's "time bomb" is still safe by his side, at least he can save Qin Tai's life.
Later, when the people who secretly monitored Qin Tai told Tan Lun one news after another, Tan Lun was dumbfounded again. There are more than 30 positions, and they are all from Fujian, and Qin Tai dares to take them all at once? Is Qin Tai stupid, or is he crazy if he wants to be an official? In this way, don't say that Tan Lun can't save Qin Tai, even King Yu can't save Qin Tai. Qin Tai only had one way to go to Fujian to die, otherwise there would be no way out. It doesn't matter if an official abandons his official position and resigns, but if an official who holds more than 30 positions abandons his official post and resigns, there will only be one result. If Qin Tai doesn't go to Fujian, he can only wait for death. Don't talk about Hu Zongxian, even any other official will not let Qin Tai go.
The news that Qin Tai was looking for people everywhere to ask for money and people made Tan Lun breathe a sigh of relief. Tan Lun at least knew that Qin Tai did not want or dared to abandon his official position and resign, if Qin Tai abandoned his official position and resigned, not only would Qin Tai be finished, but Zhang Juzheng would also be unlucky, and Tan Lun and King Yu would also be affected. Tan Lun knew what King Yu meant, and if he wanted to come to Jiangnan by himself, he was to keep an eye on Hu Zongxian and stabilize Jiangnan. Qin Tai went to Fujian to help Tan Lun and King Yu, so Tan Lun will do his best to help Qin Tai. As long as Qin Tai speaks, Tan Lun wants people to give people, money to money, and food to food.
