Inside the Tang family's back house.

Tang Ying was dressed in plain clothes, without powder, holding a step shake in one hand and a silk book in the other, sitting upright in front of the window.

On the branches outside the window, three or two small finches are chirping on the ground, combing each other's feathers, looking very affectionate.

Tang Ying sighed, lowered her head and looked at the handwriting of the silk book again, and read it out loud unconsciously.

“..... In Jian'an, Jiao Zhongqing, the wife of Jiao Zhongqing, a small official in Lujiang Mansion, was sent by Zhongqing's mother and swore not to marry. His family forced him to throw himself into the water and die. When Zhong Qing heard this, he also hanged himself in the garden tree. ”

"The peacock flies southeast, wandering for five miles. Thirteen can weave, fourteen learn tailoring, fifteen play gonghou, sixteen recite poetry books. Seventeen is a gentleman's wife, and her heart is always bitter and sad. ...... When the officials heard this, they knew that they were leaving. Wandering under the garden tree, hanging southeast branches. ”

This long poem of Yuefu is a meeting gift presented by Wei Shi to Tang Ying.

He also knew that it was very difficult to impress Tang Ying with just a little friendship from Wei's mother back then.

There is no shortage of gold, silver, wealth and silk and other mundane things.

According to Wei Shi's speculation, a woman like Tang Ying with a rough background should care most about feelings, and this long poem about Yuefu that tells the story of Jiao Zhongqing and Liu Lanzhi was rated as the double beauty of Yuefu in later generations, and I think it can move Tang Ying.

What's more, the incident of Jiao and Liu happened in the fifth year of Jian'an, which is only a short two years from now, and their deeds have only been circulated in Lujiang County, and have not been spread to other places.

Of course, even if Tang Ying knew, Wei Shi would have a way to deal with it.

He deliberately removed some key words that revealed information in this silk book, such as the last sentence in the preface: When people hurt it, it is Shiyuner.

Someone claims it, and that's the people of the time.

No one claimed it, so Wei Shi was cheeky and recorded this famous long poem of Yuefu in his name.

How does fame come about?

Relying on a little bit of accumulation of strength is too difficult.

Wei Shi is not a foolish person, there are shortcuts to take, so naturally he will not give up.

At this point, he had already made up his mind after hearing that Tang Ying, the princess of Hongnong, was the same as his mother's family.

If there is a masterpiece adapted from real people and real events like "Peacock Flying Southeast" in hand, Wei Shi's literary name will be spread all over the world, and even those Jian'an celebrities who boast of their literary style cannot underestimate him.

"Then Wei Langjun is still waiting outside the door, right, please let him in."

Tang Ying's eyes were slightly red, she put down the silk book, and sighed faintly, the moment she read the book just now, she thought of Liu Wei, the king of Hongnong, and she couldn't help crying.

Wei Shi was outside the door, waiting for his legs to be numb, and his heart was also up and down.

"Lang Jun, please come in, the princess is waiting in the front hall." Just when Wei Shi and the others were anxious, the door of the Tang Mansion finally opened, and a person who looked like an old servant poked his head out.

"Only Lang Jun is allowed to enter alone, and the others are waiting outside the door." The old servant said, looked at Guo Peng and a few others on the side, and gave another instruct.

Guo Peng's face was immediately praised with joy, and Wei Shi's body was also stunned: "Brother Wei, you say hello to Princess Hongnong on my behalf, and say that Guo Peng, a disciple of the Yangzhai Guo family, is willing to ..... for the loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty." ”

Wei Shi nodded at Guo Peng and followed the old servant into the mansion.

This other house, although the area is not large, only the Mitsui courtyard, but the layout inside is very exquisite, it can be seen that the Tang family has great respect for this former imperial concubine.

"This step shake was given to Aunt Lushan Tang by my father back then, and I didn't expect to see it again, it was already a thing..."

At the moment when Wei Shi stepped into the front hall, a gentle and somewhat sad woman's voice came, and when he looked for the sound, he saw a graceful and slender figure reflected on the side of the screen.

Wei Shi bowed his head and said: "Nanyang Wei Shi, meet the princess, a few years ago, my mother suffered a military disaster in Wancheng and unfortunately died of illness. ”

According to the generations in the family, Wei Tang is Tang Ying's aunt, Wei Shi's age is five or six years younger than Tang Ying, and calling Tang Ying a cousin is also to express closeness.

"Disaster of war, alas, this big man's good country and society was ruined by those evil thieves with ill intentions, by the way, the long poem "Peacock Flying Southeast" on the silk book, is it really written by you?"

After Tang Ying sighed, she turned the topic to something she was interested in.

Wei Tang's family was just a reason, she was still young at that time, she had only met a few times with her father Tang Mao, and they were not familiar with each other, and Tang Ying didn't know what to say if she continued to talk about it.

Wei Shi nodded, and said in a firm tone: "Princess, this matter is Shi listened to the words of the businessmen of Lujiang County, and when he thought of the matter of King Hongnong, he felt nostalgic in his heart, so he wrote this ...... ”

"I have a heart. I like this long poem. When I come to worship, I will inform Your Majesty of it, and may he have a ...... under the spring. Tang Ying's eyes showed a look of approval, and she said sadly.

The newly recognized cousin of this clan seems to be also a man of temperament.

Over the years, she has long had the heart to sacrifice the dead young emperor Liu Wei, but she couldn't find a suitable eulogy for a while, and now with this song "Peacock Flying Southeast", it is also a matter of heart.

Wei Shi saw that he had left a good impression in Tang Ying's heart, and he didn't bother much at the moment, so he hurriedly said goodbye and went out.

When he was about to go out, Wei Shi ordered Guo Peng to leave a lot of cloth and gold cakes for the old servant, although Tang Ying did not lack these things, but it was always better than nothing.

Through Tang Ying's request for an official from Liu Xie, he couldn't say it all at once, Wei Shi saw that the old servant had collected the money, so he invited him aside and took out a letter from his bosom that had been prepared a long time ago.

In this letter, Wei Shi wrote down his thoughts about seeking the position of Fang Ling Taishou on it, and took care of the old servant and presented it when Tang Ying was in a good mood.

After visiting Tang Ying, Wei Shi's main business in Yingchuan County was almost completed.

It just so happened that Liao Hua and Hou Yin were also in a hurry to send someone to report that Han Hao, the general of the guard army under Xiahou Xuan, had already returned from Ye County with the Tuntian soldiers, and if they didn't leave, it was very likely that they would be blocked by Han Hao.

Yingchuan County walked down this time, Wei Shi and others gained a lot, many things had to be transported by camels in big carts, and the speed of the march was not fast, if they were caught up by Cao Jun, the losses would be great.

Han Hao is good at Tuntian, his name as the general of the protector army is because of Tuntian's merits, this time, Wei Shi and the three of them took advantage of Han Hao's absence to go to Yingchuan County to copy Han Hao's old bottom, it is strange that Han Hao is not angry.

"Zifeng, tell me, which way will Han Yuansi block us?" Wei Shi and Guo Peng rode their horses and whipped their horses and hurried towards the garrison Yangzhai.

Among the Yang Zhai Guo family, the most famous person is Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao.

Guo Jia is now the celebrity next to Sikong Cao Cao, the chief strategist.

Wei Shi asked Guo Peng, he also wanted to take the school exam, this young kid who was also from the Yang Zhai Guo clan had a bit of insight and ability to strategize.
