The eleventh year of Chongzhen, winter.

Hangzhou, West Lake.

Broken bridge, clean residence.

Wang Wei, a man in grass clothes, is taking care of his garden.

There are not only flowers and trees in the garden, but also some vegetables. She first knocked the snow off the leaves, then went to inspect the flowers and trees, and then picked up a broom to clean the courtyard.

Wang Wei is 41 years old this year, and when he was seven years old, his father died. The clansmen dominated his family property and sold Wang Wei into the Qinglou.

At the age of 14, Wang Wei started a business, boating in Nanjing, Suzhou and Hangzhou.

After having a small savings, Wang Wei suddenly disappeared, traveled through famous mountains and rivers with a cloth robe and bamboo cane, and wrote a book "Famous Mountains".

When he was eighteen years old, Wang Wei fell in love with Mao Yuanyi's talent and character, and married Mao Yuanyi as a concubine at the same time as his friend Yang Wan. Mao Yuanyi preferred Yang Wan, and Wang Wei felt increasingly alienated, so he chose to leave alone.

At the age of nineteen, Wang Wei came to Hangzhou and met the talented Tan Yuanchun.

Wang Wei fell in love at first sight and took the initiative to pursue.

Tan Yuanchun does not take the initiative, does not refuse, and is not responsible. Famous prostitutes, just have fun, what do you do when you marry home?

Wang Wei fell seriously ill and left Hangzhou to visit the famous mountain.

Returning to Hangzhou again, Wang Wei became a nun and escaped into the empty door, calling himself "Caoyi Taoist".

"Bang bang bang!"

There was a knock on the courtyard door.

Wang Wei put down the broom and opened the door to welcome the guests.

But I saw Wang Ranming, the son of a wealthy merchant, standing outside the door, and there were more than a dozen scholars behind him.

Wang Ranming, a giant in Huizhou, squandered money with righteousness, and liked to make friends with celebrities and prostitutes. He and Wang Wei have been friends for many years, and when he heard that Wang Wei was a monk, he immediately built a house by the West Lake and presented it to Wang Wei to devote himself to practicing Buddhism.

After Liu Ru broke up with Chen Zilong, he threatened to marry someone more talented than Chen Zilong. Wang Ranming also came to comfort her and persuaded her not to be sad, and later promoted the marriage of Liu Ru and Qian Qianyi.

What Wang Ranming really likes is the female painter Lin Xue.

After getting old, Wang Ranming also went to Fujian to visit Lin Xue for thousands of miles, and the two reunited with wrinkled faces.

"Everyone, please come in." Wang Wei said together.

Women live alone to earn living expenses, and forty-one-year-old Wang Wei is naturally impossible to sell herself again.

In fact, after she prayed to the Buddha, she cleansed herself. But there are often scholars who come to visit, do not drink, only drink tea, recite poems, and talk about the past and the present.

It is equivalent to a communication platform for celebrities, and it is very high-end, without a certain identity and fame, it is impossible to come here to consume.

If you are talented, Wang Wei will not accept anything, and you can treat this as a free hotel.

Wang Mingran introduced: "This is Huang Ying, a famous man in Jiangxi. ”

"I've seen Huang Gongzi." Wang Wei saluted.

Xu Ying arched his hand and said: "I have admired the name for a long time, and I am fortunate to see it today." ”

The rest of the scholars were not introduced.

Wang Wei felt very strange that these scholars were dressed in Confucian shirts, and they were all carrying long swords.

Not a scribe's sword, but a two-handed sword.

Wang Wei invited them in and added firewood to the tandoor to make tea. He also took out more than a dozen futons and spread them on the ground for everyone to sit cross.

"How's it going?" Wang Mingran asked.

Wang Wei replied: "The day before yesterday, I was caught with a cold and has been cured. In the past two months, why haven't you seen your son? ”

Wang Mingran smiled and said: "Brother Huang Xian and I are swimming in Huyang, and we have not been in Hangzhou. ”

Wang Wei became more and more curious about this "Huang Ying", thinking that it was the son of a high-ranking official, otherwise Wang Mingran would never attach so much importance to it.

Xu Ying took out three books, all of which are the latest editions, one is called "Datong Collection", one is called "Datong Female Generals", and the other is called "Datong Travel".

Handing the book over, Xu Ying asked, "Have you ever heard of such a book as a female mage?" ”

Wang Wei nodded and said, "I have seen "Datong Collection". ”

Xu Ying smiled and said, "The mage can flip through the "Datong Female Generals". ”

Watch now?

Wang Wei glanced at everyone and saw that everyone didn't speak, so he curiously opened "Datong Female Generals".

It took Wang Wei two quarters of an hour to finish reading the book, and he suddenly felt uneasy. If she was twenty years younger, she would definitely leave everything behind and immediately go to Jiangxi to seek refuge with Zhao Han.

Closing the page, Wang Wei asked, "Huang Gongzi is Zhao Tianwang's person?" ”

"Yes, yes." Xu Ying smiled.

In Yangzhou and Zhenjiang, Xu Ying's identity is almost semi-public. Not only was it not dangerous, but it was courteous, and this change came after Zhao Han captured Guangdong and Hunan.

These more than a dozen sword-carrying warriors used to be all members of the Restoration Society.

Whether it is the Donglin Party or the current Fushe, the main members are businessmen and small and medium-sized landlords. There are also big landlords and big businessmen, but the proportion is very small.

After the Datong theory spread, businessmen and small landlords liked it very much, because "Datong Ji" was also their appeal.

These swordsmen, all small landlords, are now all members of Datong.

They followed Xu Ying to run around the country, and they had to practice sword formations in their spare time. When he was arrested by the government and met a gangster, he directly drew his sword and greeted him, and he has not lost a battle so far.

Wang Wei was curious: "I am a monk girl, how can my son come to visit?" ”

Xu Ying said, "Please write a letter. ”

"To whom?" Wang Wei asked.

Xu Ying replied: "Mr. Shi Min (Mao Yuanyi)." ”

Wang Wei was stunned, and then smiled bitterly.

Mao Yuanyi was her real first love, and she also married Mao Yuanyi as a concubine for several months.

Mao Yuanyi fought in Liaodong and was Sun Chengzong's right-hand man. He also went to Jiangnan to raise warships, strengthened the Liaodong Naval Division, and led more than ten cavalry to protect Sun Chengzong's breakthrough.

This humanities and martial arts are both complete, and the text has "Nine Learnings and Ten Items", and the martial arts have "Wubei Zhi". "Wubei Zhi" was called "the encyclopedia of military science" by later generations.

At this time, he was in Fujian and was demoted to the garrison.

Historically, more than a year later, the Tartars entered the customs again. Mao Yuanyi asked to lead troops to the king, but was obstructed by the powerful and died of grief and drunkenness.

Wang Wei asked, "What to write?" ”

Xu Ying replied: "The tragic situation of the Jiangnan provinces is written truthfully. ”

"Zhao Tianwang wants to attack Fujian?" Wang Wei asked again.

"Sooner or later." Xu Ying said ambiguously.

Wang Wei asked again: "Why don't you let the Mao family write a letter?" ”

Xu Ying sighed: "The Mao family has too much land, and it will definitely be divided in the future." I went to visit, but not only did I not see me, but I also reported to the county magistrate to arrest me. Alas, it was a lot of embarrassment. ”

It was quite embarrassing, Xu Ying's swordsman on his back, hacked to death and injured more than ten officials, and frightened the county to flee back to the city in embarrassment.

Wang Wei got up to get a pen and paper, sprinkled hundreds of words, and the text was written without adding points.

Xu Ying took the reading and said with emotion: "Good calligraphy, good writing, I might as well do it." ”

According to Fujian businessmen, the officers and men of Fujian Province have long had no fighting spirit due to the previous defeat in Jiangxi. Only the guard post and the sailor guarded by Mao Yuanyi became the strongest army in Fujian after a long period of materials.

If you persuade this person to surrender, Fujian will take half of it, and you can still get this military theorist.

Wang Wei got up again to add tea to everyone, picked up the teacup and said, "Replace wine with tea, and toast all righteous people." ”

"Please!" Xu Ying raised her glass.

Wang Wei asked: "Jiangxi women, is it really as contained in the "Datong Female Generals"? ”

Xu Ying smiled: "Not only that. Under the rule of Zhao Tianwang, three-year education was slowly popularized. Even children in the mountains can study for free for three years. Girls and boys are generally the same. ”

"Can girls go to school?" Wang Wei was surprised.

"Of course," Xu Ying said, "many gentry families think that men and women are not close to each other, so they raise money to establish girls' schools. In the girls' school, the husband, the students, are all girls. When women enter school, they not only have to learn poetry and female workers, but also learn the Four Books and Five Classics. Zhao Tianwang's wife worked as a teacher at the Sweeping Eyebrow Girls' School, specializing in teaching the "Four Books". ”

"Sweeping Eyebrows Girls' School, Sweeping Eyebrows Girls' School," Wang Wei muttered repeatedly, his face full of reverence. Immediately, she was gloomy, "It's a pity ......"

Xu Ying said with a smile: "Don't be a pity, if the female mage is still vulgar, she can also go to the Sweeping Eyebrows Girls' School to be a gentleman." ”

"I used to be a prostitute, can I be a husband?" Wang Wei was a little excited.

"Jiangxi, Hunan, and Guangdong, there is no difference between good and cheap," Xu Ying said, "The female mage forgot the book of "Datong Female Generals"? Many of the women in it were also former prostitutes. As long as you don't commit adultery, you will be a good citizen once you are good. If the female mage wants to go to Ji'an, I can send a boat escort and write a letter of recommendation to Zhao Tianwang. ”

"That's it!"

Wang Wei suddenly took off the nun's hat, revealing a bald head. She threw the monk's hat on the ground and said sonorously: "Eating fasting and reciting Buddha, there is an emptiness." I couldn't be idle, I had been reciting Buddhism for more than ten years, and I didn't understand the profundity of Buddhism. It's better to go to Ji'an and be an upright person! ”

When Xu Ying saw these words and deeds, she immediately praised: "The real woman is also a hero!" ”

Wang Wei is really a lover, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old famous prostitute, suddenly closed down and went on a trip alone. When the money ran out, he came back to business and discussed with his good sister to marry Mao Yuanyi together. noticed that Mao Yuanyi had no feelings for her, and left alone. In the end, he met the negative heart lang and escaped directly into the empty door to be a nun.

Such chic is rare in the world.

Wang Weipan sat on the futon: "Huang Gongzi, if you talk about Jiangxi again, I really like to listen to it." ”

Xu Ying pointed to "The Great Peer": "The female gentleman can observe this book. Although this is true, it is all adapted from real people and real events, with only a slight touch of legend. ”

"Well, I'll see for myself," Wang Wei asked, "when can I go to Jiangxi?" ”

Xu Ying said: "After the beginning of spring." ”

Wang Mingran suddenly smiled and said: "See you next time, this grass-clothed Taoist is a female gentleman in the academy." ”

Wang Wei was generous, and joked to himself: "Maybe I'll see you next time, I'm already married to a wife, and I've made a continuation of a beloved." ”

"Hahahaha!" Wang Mingran laughed.

Xu Ying got up and arched her hand: "Mr. Woman, I'm going to say goodbye." ”

Wang Wei said: "Let's go after dinner, I'll ask the restaurant to send some wine and food." ”

"No need, we'll see you in Ji'an." Xu Ying still has things to do. Not long after he came to Hangzhou, he had just settled his family, the intelligence contact point had not yet been built, and he was going to visit Liu Rushi today.

Wang Wei sent them to the door and went back to the room to read "The Great Peer".

Reading and reading, feeling the joys and sorrows of the characters in the book, and looking forward to life in Jiangxi more and more.

Suddenly tears rolled down, and while wiping her tears, she laughed to herself: "It's really like a fairyland on earth." If there is one ten-thousandth of a good book, you can live an upright life in Jiangxi. ”
