Chapter 38: Like a Flower!
Kaifeng Province.
It was one of the seventy-two prefectures of the Great Xia Dynasty.
It is also one of the places where the style of writing flourishes.
The Great Xia Dynasty held the imperial examination every September, inviting talented people from all over the world to join the imperial court, seek benefits for the people, and serve the community.
The imperial examination is divided into the civil and military imperial examinations, and the civil and military imperial examinations each have the top three, and the most dazzling ones are the top three every year.
The titles of the top three civil and military officers are all the same.
1st place, champion!
Second place, Bangyan!
Third place, Tanhua!
This is also a road to fame, and every year there will be a champion Lang who is recruited as a son-in-law by the bigwigs of the DPRK and China.
The Great Xia Dynasty was vast and populous.
Who can come out on top in the imperial examination is not full of wealth or outstanding martial arts?
Therefore, most of the bigwigs in the DPRK and China have daughters, and most of them like to recruit Zhuangyuanlang as their son-in-law.
Because, Zhuang Yuanlang has no background, and there is no need to make the saint suspicious.
Although the DPRK and China are quiet, there are still many political parties at the bottom, but these parties have not touched the bottom line of the Holy One.
Three years ago.
There is a literati who can pick tanhua, and at the same time, this person's martial arts are also extremely high, especially good at flying knives.
This person also caused a heated discussion in Shangjing, because this person's surname is Li and he is called Li Tanhua.
According to rumors, Li Tanhua's flying knife is not in vain, and if he is an official in the DPRK and the Central Committee in peace, his future will certainly be looked up to.
In his year, the light of Tanhualang actually overshadowed Zhuang Yuanlang.
I don't know how many people in the court want to recruit him as a son-in-law, and even the saint has the idea of recruiting him as a concubine.
However, in the end, Li Tanhua's choice shocked everyone's attention.
Li Tanhua didn't want any official position, left Shangjing alone, and ran to the rivers and lakes to get mixed up.
In the rivers and lakes, in a short period of time, Li Tanhua's reputation was spread.
Since then, Tanhualang has been tailor-made for this person, even if Tanhualang is later, no one has surpassed this person.
Yellow River Town.
A smoke ring was exhaled deeply.
The man said to Shen Cangsheng: "It's very bitter to spend her life." ”
Shen Cangsheng sat on the ground, ignoring the snowflakes on the ground.
looked at the man seriously.
The man continued: "Ruhua is the most beautiful woman in our town, the most gentle, and the most miserable. ”
Shen Cangsheng asked.
"Why?"
The man said: "Ruhua she and a scholar in our town are childhood sweethearts. ”
The scholar's name is Fan Dongli, as told in the play.
Scholar Fan Dongli and childhood sweethearts.
During this period, Ruhua never gave up on him, not only did not have any contempt, but encouraged Fan Dongli to study hard, daily expenses, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, all of which were earned for Fan Dongli by fishing like flowers.
The people in the town are envious of Fan Dongli as a companion like a flower.
After failing the list for the third time, Fan Dongli didn't want to take the test again.
Just thought, with Ruhua, even if it is a lifetime of fishing, there is nothing that is impossible.
So, Fan Dongli and Ruhua got married.
After getting married, Fan Dongli didn't want to see Ruhua working hard anymore, so he said that he wouldn't study anymore.
Ruhua cried, begging to let Fan Dongli set foot on the imperial examination again.
Fan Dong couldn't help it, and finally said: "This is the last time, if it's not heavy this time, I'll fish with you!"
Fan Dongli and Ruhua hugged and cried bitterly.
"I'm a man, I don't want to see you work so hard for me!"
Fan Dongli studied hard day and night.
Four years ago.
Fan Dongli once again carried the bookcase, left Huanghe Town, and went to Shangjing.
"This time, you'll be able to hit it!"
"Then, I took my lady to Shangjing, and legend has it that the sugar gourd in Shangjing is particularly sweet. ”
"Hmm. ”
In front of the Yellow River Town Ferry.
Ruhua took Fan Dongli's hand.
Fan Dongli could feel that Ruhua's hand was already very rough, even rougher than his hand.
That's because the flowers are providing him with reading.
Fan Dong centrifuged and vowed that this time, he would definitely be able to win!
In front of the ferry.
Ruhua watched the boat ride away in the wind.
She didn't expect that this time, it would be a farewell!
What's out there?
In the outside world, there is prosperity that cannot be seen in a small town for a lifetime, glory that cannot be seen in a small town for a lifetime, and power that cannot be seen in a small town for a lifetime.
That year, Fan Dongli rode a tall horse, dressed in a red robe, and had a big red flower on his chest.
In the town of the Yellow River, there is a Wenqu star.
Master Fan high school champion!
The copper drums sounded in unison and spread throughout Kaifeng Mansion.
Everyone knows the name of Huanghe Town, because, in Huanghe Town, there is a champion!
The lord of the mansion even came to visit Ruhua.
That day, Ruhua cried.
After four years in a row, I finally reached high school.
However, after waiting for a long time, Fan Dongli did not come back.
Since the news of Fan Dongli's departure from high school came, Ruhua waited at the ferry every day, waiting for Fan Dongli to come back.
year.
Two years.
Three years.
Four years.
Spring goes to autumn and comes again, but Fan Dongli still doesn't come back.
Two years ago, the lord of the mansion came to Ruhua's house and told Ruhua that don't wait any longer, Fan Dongli will not come back, and will never come back.
After the owner of the house told Ruhua, Ruhua chased after the owner of the house with a rolling pin, and cried after her.
Husband, he'll be back!
Ruhua believes in her husband.
The lord of the mansion told Ruhua that when Fan Dongli was the champion, the daughter of the head of the household department fell in love with Fan Dongli.
The lord of the mansion said that on that day, the head of the household asked Fan Dongli: "Champion Lang, do you have a wife?"
Fan Dongli said: "I haven't married a wife yet. ”
Hubu Shangshu asked again: "Are you willing to enter my mansion as a son-in-law?"
Fan Dongli said: "I am willing, Lord Xie appreciates!"
Firecrackers rang out, a couple of newcomers, envious of others.
One is the daughter of the head of the household, her father is in a high position, and her daughter is as beautiful as a flower.
In particular, those hands are as tender as tofu.
One is the champion Lang, and the future is limitless.
A good couple.
No one knew that in a small town, in front of the ferry, there was a woman watching.
The man shook his head and said, "You say, is it pitiful like a flower?"
Shen Cangsheng listened to the story carefully, like a story, but it was really placed in front of Shen Cangsheng.
Shen Cangsheng got up and walked towards Ruhua.
In front of the ferry, it was very windy.
Snowflakes are blowing in your face.
Shen Cangsheng opened his mouth and said, "Can you wait?"
Shen Cangsheng saw Ruhua's hands, which were very rough and even calloused.
It is these rough hands that have cultivated a champion.
Ruhua smiled sadly.
He pulled the long yellow hair around his ears.
A few tears in the corners of his eyes.
His voice was a little hoarse.
"My husband once said that he would come back, and he said that he would take me to see the prosperity of Shangjing and taste the sugar gourd in Shangjing. Speaking of the sugar gourd in Shangjing, it is particularly sweet. ”
Shen Cangsheng followed Ruhua's gaze, there was a small boat there.
On the boat, there was no one waiting.
"I'm afraid this ship can't sit anymore, perhaps, he took another way. ”
Ruhua shook her head.
He asked, "Have you ever been to Shangjing?"
Shen Cangsheng nodded and said, "I've been there." ”
Ruhua asked, "Is the sugar gourd in Shangjing particularly sweet?"
Shen Cangsheng was silent for a long time.
And he said, "Yes! It's so sweet!"
