Chapter 851: Going to the meeting alone
readx;
That night, she slept with Chun'er's clothes, and Chun'er's health was not good these days, so Shen Ao didn't want to disturb her, so she squinted and deliberately pretended to be asleep when she lay down. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info(-)
When I woke up the next day, the sky was clear and cloudless, Shen Ao stretched his waist and went to work after breakfast.
This kind of life is a bit boring, until the Lantern Festival arrives, it is said that early in the morning, Xichun Bridge is already crowded with people, Hangzhou household registration is many, coupled with the noise of these days, there are many people who have bought Hangzhou Shizisheng, gambling plus joining in the fun, no one is far behind.
Under the Xichun Bridge is the xiǎo river, the name is a bit strange, but although this river takes a xiǎo word, it is not xiǎo at all, the two banks are long mention, rows of willows caress with the wind, the river is turbulent, crystal clear, behind the willow trees are rows of attics, street shops, wine flags, tea flags waving in the wind.
Xichun Bridge is the most famous gold cave in Hangzhou, the left side of the bridge is a row of wine shops, gambling stalls, cross the bridge is the Goulan Qinglou, the girls of the Qinglou woke up early today, pushed open the window facing the Xichun Bridge, saw the crowd below, kept throwing eyebrows to the attic; These are all low-level Qinglou NV, real geisha, famous prostitutes are disdainful, but they will also put a layer of bead curtains in front of the window, and look at the excitement through the bead curtains.
The Wan Huā Tower is not on the right side of the bridge, but on an isolated island in the lower reaches of the Xiǎo River, which is actually made of river sediment, and the Wan Huā Tower on the island is five stories high, and the bottom is a rock base paved with huge stones.
To get to Wan Huā Building, you need to go to the river to sit on the painting boat, but today on this bridge, there is a fan of paper fan of the boy brother with a few strong men guarded, this boy brother was born with oily hair and powder, seeing many people looking at him, more and more high-spirited, handsome and beautiful, but his face is powdered, somewhat sick.
In fact, the scholar powder is also regarded as a fashion in the south of the Yangtze River, as early as the Jin Dynasty, it has been popular, and it has come to today's Northern Song Dynasty.
In the wine shop next to the river embankment, it is extraordinarily quiet, there are many van soldiers, miscellaneous servants guarded, the top floor is a wing room with a wide view, looking down from here, the countless attic ridges are connected together" There is a pleasant feeling of overlooking from a high place. The people here have already arrived, and there are really a lot of people coming, from the appeasement envoy Li Cohen followed by the transport envoy Jiang Bing, in addition to the punishment envoy Jin Shaowen, and the promotion envoy Zhou Wen "These four people are the biggest leaders of the two roads, sitting in the best position, next to the window, you can see the whole picture of Xichun Bridge."
After that, there are officials at all levels of the Creation Bureau, the Municipal Bureau, the Hangzhou Prefect's Yamén, and the two county Yamén, all of which are dazzling, and they either stand or sit in this wing room and are spacious enough, otherwise they are afraid that the officials at the level of the county order will not even have a place to stand.
Everyone held their breath, surprisingly silent, each with their own thoughts, drinking tea to hide the embarrassment.
The Great Song Dynasty set up four divisions to manage the whole road, and there was a plan to decentralize power, and there would inevitably be some dirtiness between the chief officials of the various divisions, so it was rare for these four adults to get together, and they were happy on the surface, but in fact, they all had their own wishful thinking in the bottom of their hearts.
For example, the transport envoy Jiang Bing and the pacification envoy Li Cohen have long been dirty, and the pacification envoy should be the chief officer of the road, but who is Jiang Bing? It is the nephew of the current Empress Dowager Qinci, a relative of the emperor, and the lord of Suzhou Yingfeng Bureau, Hangzhou Creation Bureau and Hangzhou City Bo Division, where do you need to look at Coco Li's eyes. Besides, in the eyes of the emperor, Jiang Bingnai is a first-class celebrity, so what is Coco Li, and his status in the entire Jiangnan is also extraordinary, even when those Dazai and Shaozai see him, who dares to show him face?
This situation makes Coco Li's position quite embarrassing, although the pacification envoy of the two Zhejiang roads is good, but he is pressed by this transfer envoy, he is disgraced, very uncomfortable, and some dirtiness is inevitable.
The two of them didn't speak, where did the rest of them dare to speak, but it was the one who raised Zhou Wen to enliven the atmosphere" deliberately said a joke, but no one laughed with him, Zhou Wen was unhappy in his heart, so he stopped talking.
As for the torture envoy Jin Shaowen, he didn't know what he was thinking, as if he was thinking deeply, and no one tried to provoke him.
After half an hour of silence, and a few teas were drunk, the people downstairs were already impatient, and they said noisily: "Why hasn't County Lieutenant Shen come yet?" Could it be that you are timid? ”
"What a Bianjing talent, hum, I'm afraid that I'm scared of my courage now." , when there are different opinions, they hear someone say: "People are coming!" Here it comes! ”
While speaking, Shen Ao rode an old horse, with a boy behind him, and came over slowly: everyone along the way made way for him, and the Xichun Bridge was already in front of Shen Ao's eyes.
Shen Ao was wearing a regular dress today, with a Confucian ribbon on his head, and he appeared with a smile, he deliberately took a bath today, his clothes were ice blue fine silk, and the snow-white piping embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf huā patterns and the mutton fat yu hairpin on his head "skillfully set off the extraordinary figure of a handsome noble son."
Seeing so many people cheering, Shen Ao smiled slightly, that smile was quite a bit of a merry boy, his chin was slightly raised, and there was a hint of arrogance.
Hmph: "Aren't you crazy?" Dude is going to be crazier than you guys!
As for the boy behind him, it is the xiǎo monk Shi xiǎo tiger "Shi xiǎo tiger has now grown his hair, and his face is becoming more and more cute, but between those eyebrows, there is a temperament that is not commensurate with his age."
The two of them arrived under the Xichun Bridge in full view of everyone, and then fell off their horses, got on the bridge, and stopped Shen Ao with the powder-faced Xiucai shaking the paper fan, and the two strong men hugged their fists behind the powder-faced Xiucai, making a gesture of an idler.
The pink-faced boy put away his fan, saluted Shen Ao, and said, "Is it Shen Ao and Shen County Lieutenant?" ”
Shen Ao didn't look at him at all, showing the gap between his identity and him, his eyes fell on the back of Xichun Bridge, and he said lightly: "Lord Ben is." ”
Seeing Shen Ao's attitude, the pink-faced boy was ashamed and angry, forcibly suppressed his anger, and said with a smile: "Does Shen County Lieutenant know that he wants to cross this bridge, but there is a famous hall, you must know that Xue Fangfang was martyred here at the beginning of the year, and since then, every day there are inkers who come to mourn for her, in order to remember this fierce wind and dust, since Shen County Lieutenant has been on the bridge, "and it is a coincidence, why not compose a poem" to open the eyes of the students. ”
Shen Ao smiled slightly: "I don't know what to do?" ”
The powder-faced nose said, "How about the Xichun Bridge as the theme?" ”
Shen Ao nodded, and fell silent: To write poems for this occasion, what is most needed is quick wisdom, which Shen Ao does not lack, his IQ is not low, and there are poems from later generations at the bottom, "Sometimes you can also take some good words and phrases to appropriate, and after reading the book for so long", I finally have some experience in composing poems, and I don't have to copy the poems of later generations.
Seeing him frowning, everyone laughed and said: "It seems that this first pass will stump the county lieutenant" Haha, what is the first talent in Bianjing, and it is not as good as our first talent in Hangzhou.
Shen Ao ignored their nonsense, "After thinking for a moment, he said loudly: "The water outside the Xichun Bridge is like the sky" for five days. Pu wine is half drunk, and the hairpin is red and pink. ”
The first half of this poem is to render the scenery of Xichun Bridge, talking about the beautiful and lively scene of Xichun Bridge, the third sentence and the sound of Xichun Bridge, but the last sentence has changed abruptly, the hairpin head red powder refers to the famous prostitute who committed suicide, n four-word short poems, the history and scenery of Xichun Bridge. This poem is naturally not as good as the good sentences that have been passed down through the ages. However, as a poem for the occasion, "it is already considered superior." After all, time is short, which is extremely rare, and even if Li Bai is resurrected, he may not be able to write poems in a short time.
In terms of quality, Shen Ao's poems are naturally not as good as those famous poets, but when it comes to fast poetry, he is also a master, and his quick thinking is the same potential that art thieves have, not to mention that Shen Ao is familiar with ancient and modern times, and his vision is much broader than that of people in this era.
Shen Ao made a poem, and the sound of ridicule was immediately silenced, "But there are sparse people who begin to shout."
The pink-faced boy chewed Shen Ao's poem "He was silent for a moment, first with a wry smile, and then saluted Shen Ao with a straight face: "The county lieutenant is a great talent, the student class ménnong axe, you have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, and you hope to forgive your sins" Please cross the bridge. ”
After that, the pink-faced boy glanced at the two strong men behind him, and the two strong men immediately separated and made a gesture of invitation towards Shen Ao.
Shen arrogantly paced across the bridge, and then said to a person watching from the side of the road: "I don't know how to get to this Wanhuā Building?" ”
After all, Shen Ao was the county lieutenant, although the man was full of wanting to see Shen Ao's jokes, he didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Shen Ao, and hurriedly pointed to a simple trestle on the river embankment: "After crossing the trestle bridge, board the painting boat, and go down the water, you can land on the Wanhuā Tower."
Shen Ao walked to the trestle, this trestle is very simple, but there is a dilapidated beauty, the wooden stake into the water "has been covered with a lot of moss, so that people can see, there is a unique poetry; At the head of the trestle bridge, there was indeed a painting boat parking, but just approaching here, Shen Ao found that a person was blocking his way.
The man, who was about thirty years old, dressed in a black gown, a somewhat sloppy gown and had greasy hair, placed a xiǎo case under a willow tree by the trestle, on which he placed black and white chess pieces, "A pair of eyes fell on the chess game, motionless."
Shen Ao suddenly understood that this was the second level, paced over, and said, "If I don't play against you, won't I be able to cross this trestle?" ”
The man suddenly didn't move, "waited for a while" before a sunspot slowly fell, and then shook his head again, "raised his eyes" and glanced at Shen Ao, the eyes were pitch black, and there was no bo, as if Shen Ao was regarded as air, only nodded with his chin, and said lightly: "Please also ask the county lieutenant to teach." ”
There was a movement in the crowd, and they said, "Even Mr. Liang, a chess idiot, is alarmed, haha, Mr. Liang is out of the horse, this Shen Ao will definitely not be able to get on the trestle." Shen Ao only understands a little bit about Go, "The level is limited, and when I hear those people praise this person called Mr. Liang, I understand in my heart, I'm afraid that this Mr. Liang's chess skills are very powerful!" Playing against him will definitely lose" What should I do?
Shen Ao's dark eyes turned quickly, and then laughed and said: "Mr. Liang, this adult doesn't have much time, so I won't play with you, it's better to do this, I'll set up a chess game for you to crack, if you can't break this chess game, you will lose?" Seeing his arrogant appearance, Mr. Liang didn't look at himself, but his face was unmoving, he didn't care at all, his dark eyes glanced at Shen Ao, and slowly: "Then, please give me advice." ”
Shen Ao smiled, and then began to place the chess pieces, and after a while, a delicate game was set, and a fan came out from his waist, so he said neatly: "Please Mr. Liang crack it." Mr. Naliang first looked at this chess game, and at first he didn't think about it, but then, he frowned again, "I think that the chess game is not so simple, but later, I actually sighed, as if I lost hun, a trace of horror flashed in my eyes, and all my body and mind fell into this exquisite game."
Shen Ao gave the fan jiāo to Shi Xiǎo Hu, and said to Shi Xiǎo Hu: "Come, fan me the wind." ”
Shi Xiǎo Hu pursed his lips: "I said that I will only be your scholar, why do you still want to fan the wind." ”
Shen Ao glared at him angrily: "Do you want to eat rock sugar gourd?" Shi Xiǎo Hu immediately took the fan, and Xiǎo fanned Shen Ao beside him.
Shen Ao looked at Mr. Liang with a smile, looking at Mr. Liang without the slightest worry on his face; The chess game he put out was a chess game studied by later generations based on the ancient chess book "The Theory of Fa Yang", in which the "golden Ji independence" and "rat stealing oil" and other clever tricks were interlocked, and the largest "inverted boots" in history were also designed. This chess game was finally broken by many high-level chess players after many high-level chess players discussed it for several days and nights: no matter how clever the chess players of this era are, it is impossible to find a way to crack it without ten days and half a month.
Shen Ao can be sure that even the first chess player in the Great Song Dynasty will never break the game in a short period of time.
