Chapter 565: Queqiao Society
It's September.
It's another year to climb high and look far away, and it's time to appreciate chrysanthemums in autumn.
On this day, Zhu Hao took a break and went to play everywhere in Beijing, but the playmate he brought with him was Lou Suzhen, who was dressed in men's clothes and did not let the women have eyebrows.
Today's Lou Suzhen is gradually coming out of the haze, recently the Lou family officially avoided being involved in the eucalyptus of King Ning's rebellion, Ning Wang's eucalyptus is basically over, Lou Suzhen feels Zhu Hao's help, coupled with the long-term seclusion life makes her feel depressed, so she travels with Zhu Hao.
In the morning, many famous places and ancient temples in Beijing have been there, and when I came back, I found a three-story teahouse to sit on to see the scenery, and then Zhu Hao took Lou Suzhen to eat a hot pot.
"Mr. Tang was supposed to come, but it is estimated that he is very busy with household errands now, so he will arrive at noon." Zhu Hao stood at the window and smiled at Lou Suzhen on the side.
Hearing Zhu Hao mention Tang Yin, Lou Suzhen's face was calm, obviously her current relationship with Tang Yin is more of a spiritual level, and they are mutual confidants, but they probably won't develop love or anything.
This mode of getting along makes Zhu Hao very rare.
In these years, being able to ignore the mundane things and just treat the other party as a bosom friend is really not a realm that ordinary people can achieve, and Zhu Hao even feels that he is a layman in this regard.
Downstairs, a crowd of soldiers was passing by.
The Shuntianfu Academy exam has just ended, many of the students who have just been admitted to the fame, are full of ambition, ready to prepare for the next year's Beizhili Township Exam, in this autumn season, will can't help but come out for a walk, do a literary meeting, and discuss the knowledge.
Lou Suzhen herself is a talented woman, for the scholar has always respected, when she was in Nanchang she organized many literary meetings, at this time there is a sense of intimacy into it, whenever I see a young talent passing downstairs, I will always take a few more looks.
But because of this, she inevitably felt nostalgic for her life experience, and she was in a trance for a while.
Reincarnated as a human being, Lou Suzhen herself is also a contradiction, and she doesn't know how to face her future life.
……
……
At noon, I arrived at the hot pot restaurant.
This is a new store opened by Zhu Hao, close to the Guozijian and Confucian Temple in the north of the city, and there are relatively more readers.
In this era, scholars are very fond of novelty affairs, and autumn is a good time to eat hot pot, many people come to patronize, and when they enter the restaurant, they find that almost all of them are scholars, and the tables are very lively.
Each private room on the second floor is full of guests.
Because Zhu Hao, the new store here, did not leave a separate private room for himself, he could only let people come and book in advance, and now there is a place to sit when he arrives at this point.
"Mr. Tang hasn't come yet......"
Zhu Hao entered the room, asked Lou Suzhen to sit down, and said with a smile.
Lou Suzhen said: "It's a little far away from the Liubu Yamen, right?" ”
The implication is that you know that today is a working day, and the household department is in the south of the city, so you go to the north of the city to eat, and it is strange that Tang Yin can come over in time.
Zhu Hao said: "Today, Mr. Tang went to Taicang to do business, mainly to hand over the autumn grain collection...... There are so many official fields in Huangzhuang, and this year's harvest is not bad, and by the way, I supervise the sowing of summer grain...... Taicang is not far from here. ”
What he meant was that I didn't hinder you from meeting at Queqiao, and I didn't deliberately arrange a place to eat here.
The location of the hot pot restaurant in the north of the city is on Shuntianfu Street, which is not far from Taicang in the east of the city, and it is very convenient for Tang Yin to come over after finishing his errands.
But Zhu Hao also felt that although Tang Yin had a certain ability, after all, he had little experience in dealing with the government, and with the procrastination and perfunctory handling of officials in this era, one thing could be done in an hour, but it had to be done for you in ten years or even a month......
I'm afraid that Tang Yin is not very suitable for this kind of boring nonsense in officialdom for a while, so it can be regarded as a kind of exercise of his ability.
At this time, the guy from the hot pot restaurant came in and said respectfully: "Two distinguished guests, I don't know what to order?" Here is the menu. ”
As he spoke, he handed over a beautiful menu with a variety of options.
Lou Suzhen often went deep into the folk when she was in Nanchang, mainly she represented Ning Wangfu at that time to come forward to attract scholars, often met with literati, and naturally went to the market from time to time, and saw many folk restaurants, but she still felt novel at this time.
Zhu Hao said: "Recently, the taste is clear, and I need a little stimulation...... Can Brother Ren eat spicy? ”
"It's fine."
Lou Suzhen seemed very easy-going.
Zhu Hao immediately sketched on it.
It may be a bit troublesome to let a woman with difficulty in choosing to order food, and Lou Suzhen doesn't want to say much in front of outsiders, plus it was Zhu Hao who brought her out, so she took the initiative to take the responsibility of starting the meal.
"Let's get to that first."
Zhu Hao said, "There should be guests coming after a while, and there will be more meals at that time." All right. ”
Zhu Hao smiled and handed the menu to the guy, and the guy immediately went to arrange it.
……
……
It is the most lively time for the hot pot restaurant at noon, don't look at the few restaurants under Zhu Hao's name, but every month, he can earn at least a few hundred taels of silver from it, which can be described as "making money every day".
This is much more profitable than Zhu Hao working as an errand in the imperial court.
was about to pour a cup of sour plum soup for Lou Suzhen, and a group of scholars next door were discussing things, but they were talking about a poem.
It is the song "Linjiang Immortal" that Zhu Hao gave to Yang Shen before.
“…… This Linjiang Immortal, can be said to be extraordinary, comparable to the peak of the Song Dynasty literati and sorcerers made, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there are few such masterpieces. ”
The person next door clearly spoke highly of the poetry.
No way.
Yang Shen's poem, from a certain point of view, can really be said to be in the forefront of the Ming words, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the first.
Tang and Song poems represent the highest peak of poetry, and there are few lyrics in the Ming Dynasty that have been handed down in the world.
Even Lou Suzhen pricked up her ears and listened carefully.
But I heard someone next door ask, "But I don't know which great talent did it?" ”
Bystander: "This is surprising, until now, no one knows who this poem came from, but vaguely knew that it seemed to come from Hanyuan, and it could also be a famous person in the Guozi Prison." Nowadays, there are different opinions about the lyricist, and some people say that it is the son of Yang University, and I am the champion of the Ming Dynasty. ”
"Wow, if it's him, it's really worthy of his reputation."
Zhu Hao: "......"
Can it still be like this?
Didn't you say okay, you Yang Shen helped me become famous?
Why did I give you a poem, and instead of helping you, you can still say that you wrote it? Although this poem was really written by you in history, you can't play like that.
Do you also say that you Yang Shen is above board?
If you really don't envy my talent in the slightest, why don't you tell the world my name when the poems are spreading?
Lou Suzhen said: "If it is really made by that Yang Yongxiu, his talent is really unparalleled in the world." ”
This sounds fine, but Zhu Hao always feels strange in his heart, although this poem was originally written by Yang Shen, and he took advantage of the traverser, but the problem is ...... Isn't Yang Shen a little unauthentic in this matter?
Zhu Hao didn't explain, and asked with a smile: "Then what do you think, compared to Mr. Tang's talent?" ”
A question stumped Lou Suzhen.
If you talk about the poetry of the world, Tang Yin can also be regarded as the number one person, many of his poems are very famous in the history of the Ming Dynasty, Lou Suzhen as his friend, not to mention Tang Yin's works that have been handed down, even those Tang Yin made in private are very clear.
Lou Suzhen said: "In terms of words alone, or this poem, I'm afraid that even Mr. Tang can't reach it." ”
Zhu Hao nodded, that's right.
Tang Yin's poems are well painted, but in terms of words, there are indeed no decent works handed down, and Yang Shen's fame comes more from words.
Yang Shen's talent and his literary attainments are more solid, of course, after he has experienced the ups and downs of officialdom and washed away the lead.
Based on the current Yang Shen alone, it is impossible to surpass Tang Yin in poetry.
No matter what Tang Yin said, he is also an old fritter in the poetry world.
Lou Suzhen was very concerned, but she was afraid that the person next door would hear it, so she deliberately lowered her voice and asked: "The son is in Hanyuan, and he should have more contact with the son of the Yang family, I don't know if I recognize his talent?" ”
Zhu Hao thought for a while and commented: "I don't have to pick my talent, it's just that people are a little stubborn, or ...... Influenced by his father, he is now more of a politician than a scholar. ”
Lou Suzhen thought about it, could it be that Zhu Hao was jealous of Yang Shen's talent?
It doesn't look like it!
With Zhu Hao's open-mindedness, who is jealous of whom with Yang Shen?
Maybe Zhu Hao is the real evaluation.
"Brother Ren, this pot is ready, try it first." Zhu Hao said with a smile, "It's a pity that there are no various supplementary foods made by me here, so I will use them like this first." ”
Lou Suzhen no longer mentioned Yang Shen and the poem, originally she still wanted to wait for Tang Yin, but she didn't know when Tang Yin would come, so it was better to wait while eating.
……
……
Although Tang Yin remembered that there was a date here, he still hurried over after Zhu Hao and Lou Suzhen had eaten enough.
"Sir, it's late, we're all done, you don't mind, right?"
Zhu Hao asked with a smile.
Tang Yin sat down and said a little anxiously: "It's okay, the matter at hand is really infuriating." ”
is very familiar with Lou Suzhen, and there are no outsiders present, Tang Yin complained directly.
Lou Suzhen asked, "But what's wrong with Taicang?" ”
Tang Yin wanted to talk and rest.
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "It's a common thing for officials to quarrel with each other, just get used to it, Mr. is used to it, this is the real officialdom, do you think it's the same as in the court, there is something to talk about, and almost never hide nonsense?" ”
Lou Suzhen looked at Zhu Hao, very curious that Zhu Hao was young, but he knew so much about officialdom.
"So you deliberately arranged all of this today?" Tang Yin glared at Zhu Hao.
These words made Lou Suzhen even more puzzled.
In the past, even if Tang Yin complained to Zhu Hao, he would not be in front of Lou Suzhen, but now he may be too familiar, and it can be said that he does not hide his bear bag at all.
Zhu Hao smiled and waved his hand: "I didn't go again, and the matter of the warehouse itself has nothing to do with me, how can I arrange the law?" I just think that Mr. should have more contact with people in the officialdom, rather than only with people from the Xingwang Mansion, after all, the old people in the palace respect you very much, and almost never shirk your requests, while others are mostly perfunctory and prevaricated. ”
Tang Yin thought about it, and Zhu Hao said it right.
But at this time, the scholar in the next room seemed to have a dispute, and said loudly: "Among the poets in the world, Tang Bohu is the first to be recommended, and no one else can compare with him." Don't say anything more! ”
