Volume 1 The Great River Goes Chapter 16
Chapter 16: The turmoil in the capital city is slow, and the eldest son is embarrassed on weekdays
It was another ordinary day, and He Hanwen was reading in the garden as usual. Mrs. He was very satisfied with He Hanwen's knowledge, she had considered He Hanwen in private, and the result was satisfactory.
He Hanwen is young, and he studied later than He Xian, so Mrs. He didn't have much hope for He Hanwen. But what neither she nor He Jin expected was that He Hanwen carried the memories of two lives, and was willing to work hard, and in terms of knowledge, he was already better than some children of the family who had studied for 7 or 8 years - even better than He Xian.
Therefore, two years ago, He Jin specially ordered someone to transform the room where He Hanwen studied in Mrs. He's garden into a small study, which was regarded as a reward for He Hanwen to establish a relationship with the Cao family and the Yuan family in Nanyang.
He Hanwen is reading in this study. The study is actually very simple, a cushion and an incense case. As for the rest, there are only small compartments made of sisal tied to the walls made of bamboo, on which different kinds of bamboo slips are stacked in different categories.
Suddenly, the window of the small study "creaked" and opened itself, but there was no figure in sight, as if it was just the sound of the wind.
He Hanwen put down the bamboo slips of the 132nd volume of "The Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period" in his hand, got up and opened the lid of the food box, and then went to close the window—he knew that it was Li Shen who had come to forage for food again.
Since getting to know He Hanwen, Li Shen doesn't seem to be too lazy to forage for food everywhere, but once he is hungry, he comes to He Hanwen's study to eat.
He Hanwen didn't care, so he decided to go to the door of the study to breathe. And he put on his shoes at the door, and stood guard at the door.
When Li Shen saw that He Hanwen was guarding the gate, he showed his figure, put two horseshoe cakes on the table, and checked the letters on the table while eating:
My friend Hanwen, are you okay today?
Cao began to be a chivalrous man in this period, young, and thought that he was not a well-known person in the cave, and he was afraid that he would be foolish to the people at home.
I listened to what you said, worked hard to study, leaned less, and acted as filial piety. Later, he was appointed as a Lang official, and crouched beside the Son of Heaven.
Cao knows himself, but he misses Hanwen.
Cao Ben wanted to be a county guard, so that he could be a political and religious officer, so as to establish a reputation, so that the world would know about it.
However, from the martial arts, he is now the northern lieutenant of Luoyang. Cao was willing to lead the officials, but as Hanwen said, the forces in Luoyang City were intertwined and relied on each other.
Cao is the new one, and he is really willing to serve the country, and he doesn't want to be a fly in the middle of the country. Cao knew that this matter needed to be considered in the long run, but time passed, and the waves were not alarmed. I don't want to be in the same stream, and I am willing to hear Hanwen's good strategy.
After reading Cao Cao's letter to He Hanwen, Li Shen just finished eating, so he called He Hanwen three times and called He Hanwen in.
"Finished eating?" He Hanwen walked along Li Shen's back and gently stroked it, and Li Shen comfortably lay directly on the desk.
"Well, do it again~~" Li Shen felt comfortable, changed his posture, and asked to be caress again.
He Hanwen sat down again on the seat, put the barrel of the brush in his mouth, and then hummed from between his teeth: "What did you bring today?"
"There is a grass meow, put it in the old place. Quick, give me another meow!, stupid guy!" Li Shen said dissatisfiedly, she squirmed, but picked up her tail and fiddled in front of He Hanwen.
He Hanwen listened to Li Shen bring him new herbs, and he was full of joy and stroked Li Shen's back, Li Shen closed his eyes slightly comfortably, opened his mouth and let out a silent howl.
Li Shen: "Cao Cao is writing again?"
He Hanwen: "No, Brother Meng De is afraid that he is going to encounter a big difficulty in his life." He Hanwen rolled his eyes, and then used his teeth to bite the shaft of the brush and turn it up and down.
Li Shen: "You have a lot of bad ideas, think about how to help him?"
He Hanwen: "Hmm... He Hanwen was considering whether to give Cao Cao advice according to the direction of the original history.
Li Shen saw that He Hanwen had not made up his mind, so he didn't care about him. She was comfortable now, so she threw herself into He Hanwen's arms, and began to nap again.
He Hanwen gently scratched Li Shen's fur while thinking. In the end, he decided not to give Cao Cao too much hint, but he wanted to take advantage of it.
So he pulled the brush out of his mouth, grabbed the sleeve robe of his right hand with his left hand, and slowly wrote on a bamboo slip:
Brother Meng De, Hanwen is fine, and his health is getting better.
Hanwen works every day, and it is all his brother's business.
Hanwen thought to himself that Brother Meng De had already had an idea, but he was still worried in his heart. The old brother has a few words, and I hope my brother will see it.
Luoyang's powerful people are knotted, and the children of official eunuchs are often overturned. If Brother Meng De wants to add power to the sea, he needs to repair the mansion and post notices to correct the law, and this is one of them;
In troubled times, now in Luoyang City, there is a miasma of black smoke and a pickled city, although it is not as good as the troubled times, but it can be called a chaotic city. Therefore, Brother Meng De can be strict with the law, and those who violate it will be arrested, announced, and sentenced according to the law.
Brother Meng De can make this law in turn from the subordinate magnates. If someone with great power hears about it, it can also be shocked and used as a reference.
After writing, he called Qiao'er to pack the bamboo slips and send them to Cao Cao.
※※※
At the same time, the glorystand of Luoyang West Street.
The white horse golden saddle from the first emperor, the banner of 100,000 Su Changyang.
The little woman at the head of the building sat on the kite, and saw the flying dust into the party.
The peach blossoms on the galloping road are full of royal ditches, and the red makeup is on the happy scene.
More than 1,000 gold medals and purple ribbons ride, making a fuss on the glory-seeking platform!
"Gentlemen, how can I do this joy platform?" He Xian hugged a petite and bewitching woman, drinking and composing a poem at the same time.
"Hahaha! Uncle Ying is so literate! What a fuss on the glorystand! I just don't know what about the "matchmaker" on the top brand of the gloryclub?"
"Bang! bang!" Behind the screen outside the door, a middle-aged man dressed as a brother turned out, only to see him pedaling gold silk shoes, wearing a red agate pattern silver gem belt, holding a plain white fan in his left hand, a cyan jade pendant falling from the fan, and a red hooked silk glove in his right hand.
The middle-aged man high-fived as he walked into the room. The middle-aged people in the room who knew each other got up and saluted, "Mr. Geshu!"
He Xian didn't know who the person was, but seeing that the brothers who were quite arrogant in the past all saluted, he knew that this person must be not small! So he also got up and said: "The junior surname is He, the single name is a salty character, the word Uncle Ying, is the eldest son of He Jin, the eldest son of Hu Ben Zhonglang, dare to ask the name of Mr."
The middle-aged man walked to the banquet, and immediately a gentleman gave up his seat and respectfully invited him to sit down.
The middle-aged man nodded in thanks, sat elegantly, then put away the plain-faced white fan, and said: "He Gongzi doesn't have to be formal, his surname is Geshu, his name is in the text, and the word Zihan is the owner of this joy-seeking platform!"
He Xian was suddenly shocked, and immediately bowed: "I heard that the owner of the Huantai is extraordinary, and when I saw it today, sure enough, the junior has seen Mr. Geshu!"
It turned out that the person who came was the head of the "Qingtianlou", which is known as one of the four coquettish in the rivers and lakes - Ge Shu Xingwen!
There are four more powerful sect forces in this Jianghu, known as the Four Coquettes, and their heads are also known as the Four Coquettes.
These four sects are the "Qingtianlou" that controls all the brothels in the Central Plains, the "Tongshu Society" that controls all paper and book stores, the "Jile Gate" that controls all the marketable grain and sells illicit salt in the Northeast region, and the "Fushengtang" which specializes in assassination and intelligence investigation.
And the heads of the four major sects, that is, the ones who are really known as the "four coquettish", are the head of the "Qingtianlou" brother Shu Xingwen and his deputy Sun Wuwu, the president of the "Same Case Association" Xia Chunqiu, the owner of the "Bliss Gate" Qian Tongcai, and the owner of the "Fushengtang" Nalan Guangsheng.
The reason why Qingtianlou is known as the head of the four coquettish, in addition to the fact that the head brother Shu Xingwen has a wide range of roads and the highest martial arts, also benefits from the eldest grandson's worry-free planning and then acting, judging the situation and grasping the hearts of the people.
He Xian had already known the power of these four major sects in the rivers and lakes, so when he saw Ge Shu Xingwen, the head of the four coquettish coquettishness, he immediately felt that the opportunity to get rid of He Hanwen was now!
Ge Shu Xingwen said: "He Gongzi's hand is really a good literary style, the writing has the intention to make friends with Gongzi, and I heard that He Gongzi wrote a beautiful hand, can you ask He Gongzi to write down this poem, this head wants to stand on the joyplatform forever!"
He Xian was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately said: "It is really an honor for the junior to be able to read the boy's writing! The boy is here to write, dedicated to Mr.!"
"Quick, get the paper quickly!" He Xian roared and pointed straight to a small group.
"Don't look for it! How can the paper stay in the world for a long time? The matchmaker will bring the silk!" Ge Shu Xingwen high-fived three times, and a girl wearing a veil came holding a fine silk. The girl's veil is like silk weaving, and you can vaguely see the girl's face, but you can't really see it. The girl's waist is slender, and every move seems to reflect the graceful beauty, and there are bursts of fragrance surrounding.
He Xian was stunned, he felt that something was about to move in his body, as if he was about to come out. Not only He Xian, but the rest of the men in the room were also stunned.
"Matchmaker, come back after presenting the silk. Geshu Xingwen ordered.
I saw that the room was filled with a sweet voice from behind the looming veil: "Oh~~", he handed the silk cloth to He Xian's hand and disappeared.
He Xian couldn't even remember how he took the silk, and all he had left in his mind was the sweet voice now, and there was a burst of women's fragrance on the silk.
However, after the matchmaker retreated, He Xian immediately became excited and regained his senses. He looked at Ge Shu Xingwen, but Ge Shu Xingwen didn't blame him at all, but looked like he was not surprised, and he knew that this matchmaker was simply the kind of wonderful person that all men pursued in their hearts!
He Xian hurriedly unfolded the silk cloth, and someone handed over the paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and began to write his poems on the silk seriously.
