Stop-and-go (below)

The old man lived in the Huanxi Building.

Most people who don't know just that a poor old man came to this building, lying on the handrail of the corridor on the highest floor, squinting at the merry man who drank and fought poetry.

Scholars in green or white shirts drank wine and fought poetry, and beauties poured wine.

Although they were all seated in the cubicle, there was a jar at the door, which was full of wine, and there was a scoop.

If anyone loses the poem, a beautiful woman stretches out her hand and takes out a scoop of wine from the jar and hands it into the compartment, and the people in the other compartments can also lie in the compartment and look at the position of the scoop in the jar, which is used to judge whether others have escaped from the wine.

There are also many people, who have drunk too much, and their faces turn red, and they fill a scoop of wine with a scoop, and they will go to the hall, untie their robes, and sing aloud.

Of course, the tunes are all old-fashioned, but the poems that are sung are really ready-made. If you get up and sing and use other people's words, you will be looked down upon by everyone.

The copyists of the major bookstores liked this scene the most, and the poems written by these young sons and drunken were the content of their new books.

Ji Qiuyang also liked this scene.

Originally, he wanted Xu Changan to find him a quiet place to live and send some books about the Holy Dynasty in recent years, and it was best to get some information from the historian. But even if it is the Holy Emperor, it is difficult to get the historical materials of the Holy Dynasty for nearly twenty years from the historians, let alone Xu Chang'an. Therefore, he took some historical materials of the previous dynasties compiled by historians, and also found some books that could represent the cultural and economic development of the Holy Dynasty and gave them to Ji Qiuyang.

Ji Qiuyang originally disdained to come to the land of fireworks lane willows, but at Xu Changan's insistence, he still came to Pingkangfang, the land of fireworks lanes and willows in the previous dynasty.

But when he entered Pingkangfang, he noticed the difference, and his face slowly softened.

In the past, he was a place to hide dirt and dirt and do a leather and meat business, but now it has become a literati and a place to show his romance, which he slowly did not expect.

As soon as the embroidery mouth spit out, it will say that the world is prosperous, and the sound of the piano will also tell the death of the world.

Such a prosperous scene of poetry and literature can be seen in the previous dynasty. If it is in the Ji Dynasty, these places are the exclusive and decadent places of the prince and grandson. And belonging to the literati, there is only the Yanyu Xinghualou that is now slowly recovering under the control of Chai Xintong.

However, in the previous dynasty, Yanyu Xinghualou only belonged to aristocratic scholars. As for the poor scholars, they can't even enter the door.

It was a great pleasure to see rich and poor people sitting together and singing to their voices.

"Senior, I didn't lie to you, did I?" Xu Changan asked as he looked at Ji Qiuyang, who was staring at the bottom with relish.

Ji Qiuyang came back to his senses, someone was downstairs just now, and he was listening to it vigorously.

He said to the young man who came out at this time to write a poem: "Look at the texture of his clothes, he should be a child of a poor family. I didn't expect that the children of poor families also have such poetic attainments, and the "Xijiang Moon" just now was good. ”

After finishing speaking, he sighed and said: "The poor scholar who was bent on seeking officials everywhere back then finally did a good thing. ”

When Xu Changan heard this, he shook his head.

"Xu boy, what do you say, don't you think so?"

"I won't say much about the imperial examination system, the establishment of the Confucius Temple has given many scholars a backbone, and they began to think that they can get ahead by studying. ”

Ji Qiuyang straightened up and looked at Xu Changan.

"Go on. ”

"But the Confucius Temple claims to protect the scholars, and there is no policy. Let the poor study with peace of mind, and let the Han scholars have the money to come to Chang'an to take the exam, these are not things that Confucius Temple can do. ”

Ji Qiuyang nodded, and Xu Changan continued: "At the beginning, the Confucius Temple was like the clay statue that was high above, which gave people hope in their hearts, but no matter how realistic the clay statue in the temple was, it would not really go down to the world. ”

Although Ji Qiuyang doesn't like his master, he has always disliked this person who wanted to be an official with his head sharpened back then. But now that the scholar is in a romantic situation, he has to admit that the master has some ability.

"Where is it now?"

Xu Changan smiled slightly, and then instructed Chen Tianhua to bring the account book.

He paralyzed the ledger in front of Ji Qiuyang, although the amount of money earned last year was similar to that of this year, Ji Qiuyang quickly discovered the problem.

The price of Huanxi Lou has been reduced by nearly half, and there is also a list of scholars, and those who can make people chant poetry in Huanxi Lou can drink for free for three days and leave their names on the flower list.

The price is reduced, and the silver taels that can be earned are about the same, which illustrates a problem.

In the past year, the number of scholars entering Chang'an City has increased greatly.

Ji Qiuyang raised his thumbs up at Xu Changan and praised him.

"You kid did a good job, and coming here for one night is like going to a tavern. However, it's not because of the price reduction of your restaurant, right?"

Xu Changan replied with a smile: "The seniors are joking, the juniors are just running a few restaurants, where is this attraction." ”

There was a cheer below, and another person walked out, and the person who had just made "Xijiang Yue" fought with the poem, which attracted applause, and at this time, a woman came, took out a directory, and left the names of the two.

Xu Changan glanced at it, cleared his throat and said, "Since last year, in addition to the Confucius Temple, there is also an institution. If there are local scholars who want to come to Chang'an to take the exam, the Bihan Division will verify their difficulties according to their family situation, and then provide relief. If a person who only has a wife and children in the family wants to come to Chang'an to take the exam, and that person has enough learning, Bihan Si will not only send someone to send him and wrap it around, but also take out the appropriate silver taels to take care of his family. It is precisely because the Bihan Division has solved the practical difficulties of many scholars that there are many people who study hard, and reading can not only get ahead, but also fill their stomachs!"

Xu Changan said, his eyebrows fluttering, although he thought that this Bihan Division had little to do with him, but when it came to Bihan Division, he was extremely proud in his heart.

Ji Qiuyang looked at him, laughed twice, patted him on the shoulder, and returned to the room.

......

The next day, the early autumn sunshine still came early, but after a night of slight cold and the warm sun at this time, a dense mist appeared on the bluestone street, and one old and two young, three people stepped out of Chang'an.

"Senior, where are we going?" Jian Wuxing lowered his head and honestly followed behind Xu Changan and Ji Qiuyang, without saying a word. And Xu Changan is different, if there is anything, he asks.

Before the three of them left the city, a cat meow came, and they saw a white kitten looking at Xu Changan's back with resentment.

Ji Qiuyang glanced at Xiaobai, looked at Xu Changan, and nodded lightly.

Xiaobai saw this, too

didn't care about stepping on the street and had some wet soles, so he jumped directly on Xu Changan's shoulders and regarded Xu Changan as a mount.

"The bloodline of that little cat in Shushan, right?" Xu Changan knew that Ji Qiuyang was talking about Lao Hei, so he nodded, which was an answer.

"You two, come with me to see the old people. I haven't been out of the mountain for many years as an old man, and it's not bad to have two juniors with me. ”

When the two heard this, there was no reason to disagree.

"Senior, where are we going first?"

Ji Qiuyang thought for a while, looked into the distance, narrowed his eyes, and then said, "Go to Tianji Pavilion first, and then go to Lingyin Temple." If there was no Tianji Pavilion to come up with an idea, the monks of Lingyin Temple would not dare to lie to me, and let me hold the small broken temple for decades. ”

Hearing that he went to these two places and saw Ji Qiuyang's face, Xu Changan immediately became nervous. 、

"Senior ......"

Before he wanted to speak, Ji Qiuyang continued: "The fall of the Ji dynasty is no wonder to others. But I, Ji Qiuyang, is not an unreasonable person, they deceived me and underestimated me, so they have to pay the price. ”

Xu Changan was not allowed to speak, Ji Qiuyang mentioned the two of them and a cat, and broke through the air.

Imperial.

The Holy Emperor stood against the railing, watching the light break through the sky outside the city.

"Father. ”

The eldest prince wore brocade clothes and bowed to the Holy Emperor.

"Your guard is lucky. The Holy Emperor smiled, looked at his son, who had changed greatly after the ordeal, patted him on the shoulder and said.

"That's his creation. The eldest prince replied.

"By the way, how is your brother's schoolwork?"

"Brother, he works hard. ”

The Holy Emperor nodded, sighed and said, "I hope that this world has not disappointed Ji Qiuyang's predecessors." ”

The eldest prince looked at his father, he hadn't looked at his father carefully for a long time, and now his temples were gray, and the wrinkles on his face were deeper.

"Don't worry, in the future, my younger brother will definitely not let everyone be disappointed in this world, and govern the world with benevolence. ”

The Holy Emperor didn't say a word, and turned to leave.

He had only taken two steps before he suddenly stopped.

"Chi'er, are you just managing your younger brothers and sisters now, are you willing?"

The Holy Emperor did not wait for his answer and left, and the Great Prince was stunned and did not answer the question.

......

The Heavenly Machine Pavilion that is extremely hidden.

An old Taoist priest has a picture of the Spring Palace in his hand, and there are several wine jars rolling, his face is red, his nose is also red, and the smell of wine is all over his body.

He woke up from his dream, pinched his fingers, and was shocked: "Why is he here!"

This old Taoist priest even got up with a crawl, and what kind of liquor woke up at this moment.
