74. What does it mean to be a gentleman?
Zhan Prefecture is in the southernmost part, a poor and remote country, and has always been a place of exile for prisoners during the previous dynasty.
After the establishment of the Great Qian, the first emperor had the intention to govern Zhanzhou, but there have always been remnants of the six countries in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many large families, and it is difficult to pass the decrees, and the allocated materials are always short of catties and two.
When the first emperor freed his hand and was ready to govern the Jiangnan family, he didn't have time to do it again.
Zhanzhou has become a problem left over from history.
"The fruits of Zhanzhou are very delicious."
Zhao Zheng said casually: "Zhanzhou scholars, are you a disciple of Banpo monks?" ”
Banpo layman, Su Banpo, known as the mirror of the southern country, a master.
Nanguo was one of the six countries of that year, and it was located in the southern part of Jiaguo.
Jiaguo has the habit of killing cattle, Su Banpo made a poem "Niu Fu", turning thousands of wisps of energy, ten thousand cows mourning together, and advising Jiaguo people to cherish the cattle.
Jiaguo's medicinal materials are not sold to civilians, Su Banpo made "Song of a Thousand Gold", one night on the outskirts of the city, the energy is like rain, and the medicine is everywhere.
There are many families in Jiaguo, let women go out to work, and strong men are idle at home, Su Banpo wrote "Negative Salary", which resounded in the fields day and night.
The list goes on and on.
Su Banpo is the mirror of the south and the conscience of Jiaguo.
It's a pity that he later offended the monarch of Jiaguo and was exiled to Zhanzhou, and his cultivation fell sharply.
After Zhao Zheng ascended the throne, there were several expeditions, and this kind of talent did not cultivate, and his brain was also good.
It's a pity that I don't know if the news was not delivered to Zhanzhou, or Su Banpo was unwilling, so it didn't work out in the end.
Later, in the fourth year of Tiantong, Su Banpo died of illness.
It can be regarded as the end of his life, after all, when he became famous fifty years ago, he was already forty, twenty years older than Gong Qingshan.
"Yes." Yu Chengen is like a few treasures: "Banpo monks run schools in Zhanzhou, there is a school, this Chi Banxi is a disciple of the school, and the name is also given by Banpo monks. ”
"Banpo, Banxi, even if only Banpo laymen are capable of three percent, they are also rare talents."
Zhao Zheng nodded lightly, people are not talented, in fact, it is not important, the key depends on character, as long as you have more experience, a state's talents can also govern the country.
And in today's situation, Zhanzhou, Hanmen, this background is very important to him.
"Where does Chi Banxi stay? Go with me and see. ”
"In..."Yu Chaoen was a little embarrassed: "Huaichun Yuan." ”
"Is that the one Wei Jin went to?" Zhao Zheng blurted out.
"Exactly...."
"This Huaichun Courtyard is interesting, Chengen, let's go."
"Yes..."
Fortunately, the little emperor sneaked out of the palace and changed his face to cover it up, otherwise Yu Chengen really didn't know what to do.
Take the emperor to visit Goolan Washe, he must not be criticized by the imperial history, and Zhou Ji, who has always had a lot of things, may have to impeach him!
Soon, I arrived at Huaichun Temple.
At the beginning of the lanterns, all kinds of carriages stopped on the bank of the Luoshui River, and the moving singing of Qingyue came from the courtyard, accompanied by the silk and bamboo orchestra, which was wonderful.
Just in time, the girls started to open.
There are many merchants in this area, and Huaichun Temple is the largest.
The three courtyards are connected together, and the wealth is rich, and what Wei Jin destroyed is just one.
"Childe, come and play~"
It's just that the warbler Yanyan at the door is already stunning, and there is no way to see that there was a killing here a few days ago.
Zhao Zheng is upright and does not squint.
The harem concubines are all good at female popularity, but appearance is justice.
Even if Huang Daopo is reborn and does not look good, she still can't enter the palace.
Entering the Huaichun Temple, a woman passed by.
Her hair is like ink, scattered at the back of her head, and her skin looks extremely fair.
The complexion is full of spring, looking forward to brilliance, and the charm is natural.
Dressed in a tulle dress, it looms, but the temperament is elegant, making it difficult to raise a blasphemous heart.
Mainly, a ravine, looming.
Zhao Zheng is still upright and awe-inspiring, his eyes are not squinting, and he looks straight and open.
As the saying goes, house flowers don't have the fragrance of wildflowers.
This is the gentleman's style, beauties know that they are good-looking, easy to attract attention, and they appreciate it generously, they will not mind, if they are secretive and sneaky, it will look obscene and make people feel bad.
"Your Majesty, there's Chi Banxi over there."
"Ahh
For a while, Zhao Zhengcai looked away from the ravine and saw a poor scholar.
He was tall, he didn't see that he was malnourished, and he probably didn't owe himself anything to eat, no matter how poor he was.
There is no Confucian shirt and scarf, just a white robe, clean and clean.
The appearance is not outstanding, and there is no sense of chic and elegant reading people.
Zhao Zheng is Yan Kong, but only for women, it doesn't matter what men look like, anyway, they can't be more handsome than readers.
Chi Banxi is wiping the table.
"Didn't he come to Huaichun Courtyard to listen to music for fun, he found a job here?"
"Yes." Yu Chengen nodded: "The wages of Huaichun Courtyard are more. ”
Zhao Zhengdao: "Those who participated in the Spring Festival were all lifters. ”
Yu Chengen said: "There is no township test in Zhanzhou, he went to Lingzhou to be able to pass the exam, and the cost of travel expenses along the way is very large. ”
"Robbed?"
Zhao Zheng's eyes narrowed: "There are still such thieves in the world?" And is it Huaizhou? ”
Huaizhou is the land of Longxing.
"That being said, although there are no bandits and thieves in the world, there are still petty thefts."
Yu Chengen also felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't say it.
Zhao Zhengdao: "Show me the list of people who participated in the Spring Festival." ”
Yu Chengen took out a list, not to mention the list of people raised by Chunqiu, as long as His Majesty needs it, it is the list of Oiran of this Huaichun Courtyard, and he can take it out at any time.
"The number of children from poor families participating in the imperial examination is decreasing year by year."
"The people are getting richer and richer, and there should be more and more poor people participating in the imperial examination, Chengen, what do you say is going on?"
Zhao Zheng laughed out loud as he watched.
Yu Chengen knew the truth, but as a minister, he could only pretend to be confused.
However, depending on His Majesty's intentions, this spring festival can solve the problem.
On the other side, Chi Banxi was in trouble.
"Yo, isn't this a Chiju person? How is it here? ”
A pot-bellied businessman walked into Huaichun Courtyard, skillfully touched the maid's buttocks, and sat on the table of Chi Banxi.
The jade box brought in his hand pressed Chi Banxi's rag to death.
"Shopkeeper Wang, please let me go."
Chi Banxi is neither humble nor arrogant.
"This is surnamed Wang."
Zhao Zheng noticed the situation here and looked sideways.
"How did you come to such a place? It's been so shabby? ”
"Earn money, don't chill." Chi Banxi tried to pick up the rag.
"Making money?"
The king's shopkeeper's big hand pressed on the jade box, and even the rag was pressed hard.
"Or do you want to buy the articles of Gan Shang Shu and Kong Sacrifice Wine?"
The shopkeeper Wang asked people to pour two taels of tea, and some people looked at him unhappy, but he dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and he couldn't stand up for Chi Banxi.
He laughed while drinking: "When you have enough money to buy it, the price will rise!" ”
This is the truth, every spring, the examiner's articles on the market will be sold out.
For example, people want to guess the question from the essay written by the examiner, or change the style of writing to suit the examiner's preferences.
This year, there are even more examiners.
The article of Confucius sacrificial wine is the most peaceful, peaceful and neutral, and it is very serious with a little flaw.
Gan Shangshu's articles are some of the swords that go off the rails, and some of the ideas are extreme and biased, and every word is radical.
The two completely different styles are together, which makes this year's lifter scratch his head.
As time goes by, more people come to Beijing, and these articles will inevitably become more and more expensive, and Wang's bookstore happens to have a lot of stock.
"Shopkeeper Wang, a thousand Wen, I will earn it quickly."
