Chapter 154: Talking at the Banquet
Relying on the position of prime minister, he tarnished people's names out of thin air.
This hat is nothing in the officialdom of deceit, but in the literary world, it is a great event.
Hu Yan is the contemporary leader of the Qiandu literary circle, and Wei Qing, as Hu Yan's teacher, is also in a high position as prime minister.
Therefore, most of the literati children who are not from the Yang family are naturally close to their faction.
But now, if you have such an infamy, then what's the point?
So Wei Qing immediately fought back and said, "How can Mrs. Yang smear people's innocence out of thin air? ”
"Hu Yan's innocence is important, and the names of those ten people are naturally equally important."
"Although I am in the position of prime minister, I have never thought of bullying the small with the big and oppressing others with power."
"I only hope that Your Majesty will open the Holy Hearing, announce the confrontation of those ten people, make everything clear, and never wronged anyone."
"What Lord Wei said is extremely true, it is better to make it clear and clear about this matter."
"It's just that something like this happened, I don't know how Master Hu, as the chief examiner of Chunfu, will explain to the candidates in the world?"
After speaking, Yang Huai took two steps back and remained silent.
Zhang Lang beside him glanced at him deeply, and the meaning in his eyes was inexplicable.
Yang Shao, who was at the back of the crowd, looked at this scene, and was secretly happy in his heart.
Wei Qing's remarks just now have actually taken Hu Yan out.
But the uncle only used a few words to show that Hu Yan was the main examiner of Chunyu after all, and it was difficult to escape the blame after all such a thing.
Even if he didn't accept bribes, if those ten people cheated, he didn't find out, and it was still a big mistake.
It's just that compared to raiding the family and exterminating the clan, it can be sentenced a little lightly.
After the two factions finished arguing, they waited for Emperor Renxuan, who was sitting on the dragon chair, to give an order.
It's just that there is only silence waiting for it.
Emperor Renxuan had been silent since his anger at the beginning, just watching Yang Huai and Wei Qing fight.
It's just that this kind of indifference made the ministers tremble even more.
After a long time, Emperor Renxuan waved his hand and said, "Edict Jin Wuwei, tomorrow morning, announce that the ten people will meet you." ”
With an order, the tone was set.
It's day and night.
In the prosperous Qiandu city, the west is Tianqianyuan, the north is the imperial palace, and the east is Yongle Fang.
To the south, there are large and small restaurants and other shops.
At this moment, Shen Liangfu and ten others were dining in a restaurant.
Zhen Renyi wiped the corners of his mouth, shook his head, and said, "I have to say that this meal is really far worse than the teacher's Feihong Restaurant." ”
"Yes, Qiandu, it doesn't seem to be very luxurious." Chen Chuge nodded, also with some emotion.
Once upon a time, he also longed for Qiandu.
It is believed that there are stars in the literary world, the beauty of high-rise buildings in architecture, the ability to do the best of prosperity, and countless delicious fabrics.
But since I came, I realized that this is not the case.
Since the exam, they have also participated in a lot of poetry meetings these days, met a lot of literati, and even some so-called people.
However, compared with the teacher who came out of the chapter in his memory, it pales in comparison.
At least, except for Hu Yanhu, the first person in the literary world in Qiandu who has never met, the rest of the people are like this.
As for the beauty of high-rise buildings, the architecture of Qiandu is good.
But except for the imperial palace, it doesn't seem to be as atmospheric as the architecture of Huainan.
They vaguely remember that on the streets of Huainan, there are Feihong shops everywhere. The same grandiose atmosphere, the same exquisite decoration.
There is also the Peng bird that spreads its wings on the signboard, and the word Feihong with iron painting silver hooks, all of which are fascinating.
In contrast, the architecture of Qiandu is a little unsightly.
As for the food..., although this restaurant is not the best restaurant in Qiandu, the dishes made should be among the best, after all, it cost a few taels of silver.
But the taste is...
I can only say that they are used to eating the food of Feihong Restaurant, and they are really a little bit more comfortable eating this at this time... The taste is the same as chewing wax.
As for the cloth...
Good guys, all the big and small, but there are some famous cloth merchants.
The fabrics sold in the store today are all Huainan Shen Ji's fabrics!
This... They can only say that when they go out, they can still see the cloth of their hometown, which is a little relieved.
"Brothers, this is not a loss, you can find a restaurant everywhere, and the food will taste like this. In our country, I am afraid that only the best cooks can do it. ”
"Yes, yes, and this dress, it's really beautiful. Worn on the body, it is soft and comfortable, as if... It's like you're not wearing it. Besides, this pattern is so beautiful. ”
"I don't know what kind of skill it must take to make such a beautiful cloth."
Coincidentally, at the table next to him, a northern scholar who also entered Beijing to take the exam, was talking at the moment.
"How did you play in this test?"
"It's hard to say, the strategy and poetry are biased towards the border and the war, and my knowledge in this area is weak, and it is quite difficult to write."
"Eh, when it comes to Biansai poems, you have to talk about Brother Lingyun!"
"Yes, Brother Lingyun is the first person in our Zhubei County to be recognized as the first person to write Biansai poems."
"What do you say about chasing the northern county, if you want me to say, with the talent of Brother Lingyun, looking at the entire north, it should also be first-rate."
"In my opinion, in this test, Brother Lingyun is expected to be among the top three."
"Eh, all brothers praise falsely, Lingyun is only shallow in learning, and you should not praise it so falsely." At the dinner table, a young scholar sitting in the center said proudly.
Poof.
However, just when he was full of ambition, an untimely laugh came from the next place.
There are many kinds of laughter.
But this voice is obviously a little sarcastic.
Zhao Lingyun was not happy at that time, turned his head and looked at the person who was laughing.
I saw Zhou Anzheng covering his mouth and nose, making a serious appearance.
Seeing that the other party didn't get an inch, Zhao Lingyun just frowned, but he didn't get an inch.
It's just that he can't make an inch, but some people are not happy.
One of the people who praised him earlier stood up, faced Zhou An, and said in an almost questioning tone: "Why are you laughing? ”
"I... I think of happy things. ”
"What's the joy of it? Say it so that everyone can be happy together. ”
"A few days ago, I received a letter from my family, I was pregnant in October, and I gave birth today, and it happened to be a son and a daughter."
Hearing this, the man was stunned.
If you want to talk about it, this is really a great joy.
Then he said in a slightly apologetic voice: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood, and I would like to congratulate my brother here." ”
"It's okay."
This was the end of the confrontation between the two sides, and they each returned to continue talking.
"Brother Lingyun, you can try this salt-baked duck, it is said to be a characteristic of Qiandu, and you can't eat it anywhere else."
After a while, Zhao Lingyun put down his chopsticks, looked satisfied, nodded, and said, "It's really a rare delicacy, but the teriyaki duck in our northern county can be compared, and the south really can't find the same deliciousness." ”
Hearing this, Chen Chuge looked at the salt-baked duck on their table where no one moved chopsticks, and couldn't help laughing for a while.
