Chapter 298: Zhao Yingluo was full of emotion
Li Qingzhao warmly welcomed Zhao Yingluo to the hall of the mansion and elegantly invited her to take a seat.
After Zhao Yingluo sat down, she looked around, and couldn't help but be full of respect for this talented woman in history.
"Mrs. Zhang, your lyrics, Lone has always liked it very much." Zhao Yingluo smiled and spoke, and then softly chanted Li Qingzhao's famous work "Like a Dream Order: Chang Ji Xiting Sunset"
"I often remember the twilight of the Xiting Pavilion, I am drunk and do not know the way back, I return to the boat at night, I strayed into the depths of the lotus flower, I fought for the crossing, I fought for the crossing, and I startled a shoal of gulls and herons."
Li Qingzhao was very surprised when she heard this, she didn't expect that the princess would be so familiar with her words, and she could chant them so affectionately.
Zhao Yingluo looked at Li Qingzhao's reaction, and chanted another popular song "A Cut of Plum, Red Lotus Fragrance and Residual Jade in Autumn"
"The red lotus fragrance remnants of the jade in autumn, lightly relieve Luo Shang, and go on the Lanzhou alone. Who in the clouds sent the brocade book? When the word goose returns, the moon is full in the west building. ”
Li Qingzhao was even more surprised, and she couldn't help but ask, "Your Royal Highness Princess, how did you know these words of mine?" ”
Zhao Yingluo smiled slightly, of course she couldn't tell her that she had traveled from the next generation, so she only said: "I was lucky enough to read Madame's lyrics, and I was deeply moved, so I have always remembered it." ”
After Li Qingzhao heard this, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes.
The two chatted a few more words, and Zhao Yingluo felt that the time was ripe, so she told her her intention.
"Mrs. Zhang, to be honest, in addition to paying tribute to Mrs. Zhang's talent, there is also an important thing to tell you about this visit."
Zhao Yingluo paused and continued: "Your husband Zhang Ruzhou is suspected of corruption and has been investigated by the imperial court. ”
Li Qingzhao was surprisingly calm after hearing this, and she didn't show much surprise or anger.
She said lightly: "Since I remarried Zhang Ruzhou, I haven't had a few good days. I also heard the servant say that Zhang Ruzhou might misbehave, but I didn't expect to move the idea of scientific research. ”
After hearing this, Zhao Yingluo couldn't help but admire Li Qingzhao's calmness and wisdom.
She comforted softly, "Mrs. Zhang, Lone knows that this news may be a little sudden for you. But please believe that the imperial court will handle this matter impartially and give you a fair explanation. ”
Li Qingzhao nodded his thanks, "Thank you for your concern, Your Royal Highness the Princess." Although this matter was distressing, the courtiers believed in the justice of the court. ”
Zhao Yingluo stood up and was about to leave, but suddenly turned around and looked at Li Qingzhao, with a determined light in her eyes: "Mrs. Zhang, have you ever thought about fighting for some due rights and interests for yourself?" ”
Li Qingzhao was slightly stunned, not quite understanding what Zhao Yingluo meant: "What does the princess mean by this?" ”
"Zhang Ruzhou's matter is undoubtedly a blow to you." Zhao Yingluo said slowly, "But life always has to go on." Alone, maybe you should think for yourself, whether you want to stay in this mansion, or ......"
Li Qingzhao was silent for a moment, and then took a deep breath: "Princess, in fact, I already have the intention of leaving. But as a woman, it is not easy to survive in this world. ”
Zhao Yingluo walked up to Li Qingzhao and held her hand: "Mrs. Zhang, you are not alone. If you wish, Lone can arrange a quiet place for you to stay away from this place. ”
Li Qing looked at Zhao Yingluo, and her eyes showed gratitude: "The princess's great kindness is remembered by the courtiers. ”
"You are not only a talented lyricist, but also a respectable woman." Zhao Yingluo said, "There are too many constraints and injustices for women in this era, but I believe that as long as there is courage and determination, women can also live their own wonderful lives." ”
After Li Qingzhao heard this, his eyes flashed with determination: "The princess is right, I should live for myself once." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding.
"Well, then, it's settled." Zhao Yingluo said, "Lone will arrange everything for you." ”
After Li Qingzhao thanked him again, he sent Zhao Yingluo to the door of the house.
"Your Royal Highness, thank you for your help." Li Qingzhao said, "I hope that one day, I can also bring more light and heat to this world like you." ”
Zhao Yingluo smiled slightly: "You will, Mrs. Zhang." Your talent and charisma are enough to influence this era. ”
After speaking, Zhao Yingluo got into the carriage and gradually disappeared into the dust in the distance. And Li Qingzhao stood at the door, watching her go away, his heart fluctuating.
After separating from Li Qingzhao, Zhao Yingluo returned to the carriage, pondered for a moment, and then instructed the chamberlain Wang Shouen: "After you go back, immediately clean up my mansion outside the palace, and after disposing of Zhang Ruzhou, take Li Qingzhao to live in the mansion." ”
Wang Shouen nodded and agreed: "Yes, Your Royal Highness Princess, the old slave will do it." ”
At this time, Zhang Ruzhou was still happy in the Qinglou Chunfang Garden, unaware of the impending disaster.
He was drunk and gentle, playing with the women of the Qinglou, completely immersed in this moment of pleasure.
Soon, the Jinshi list was finally posted.
The scholars who had spent their money on the Jinshi squeezed forward confidently one by one, with dreams and expectations in the hope of finding their names on this list.
However, when they squeezed to the front of the list, they found that there was no name of their own on the list.
For a time, the crowd was furious. More than 100 scholars rushed to Chunfangyuan to ask Zhang Ruzhou for an explanation.
The old bustard tried to block these angry scholars, but she couldn't stop them.
The scholars broke through the obstacles and went straight into Zhang Ruzhou's room. Seeing this, Zhang Ruzhou hurriedly blocked the Qinglou woman with his body and scolded those scholars for being bold.
"What are you doing here? Why is it that your name is not on the list? Zhang Ruzhou asked.
"It's true that our names are not on the list, we spent money, and you deceive us like this!" The scholars responded angrily.
Zhang Ruzhou's heart sank, he didn't believe in this result.
He hurriedly put on his clothes and came to the place where the Guozijian put on the list. He searched again and again, but did not find the names of those scholars.
He began to panic a little, realizing that something might really be wrong.
At this moment, Wen Boyuan came to the front of the list with hundreds of people. They saw Zhang Ruzhou at a glance, and Wen Boyuan immediately ordered: "Take it!" ”
Zhang Ruzhou was so frightened by the sudden change that his face turned pale, he tried to struggle, but where was the opponent of Wen Boyuan and others.
In a few moments, he was firmly under control.
"What are you doing here? I am an official of the imperial court, and you have no right to arrest me! Zhang Ruzhou shouted injustice.
"Zhang Ruzhou, you are suspected of corruption and fraud in the imperial examination, and we already have conclusive evidence. Now, please come with us! Wen Boyuan said coldly.
When Zhang Ruzhou heard this, his face suddenly turned like ashes.
