Chapter 26: The Sedan in the Sedan
"I think of ginseng as the most parting hatred, I just coaxed it to the present day because of licorice. Coptis chinensis and her heart was so stubborn that she was so depressed. Bai Zhi'er couldn't write the word "leave love" and told the gentleman not to be the benefactor. You are Pinellia Angelica, and I would rather wait for Tiannanxing all night..."
A gentle and melodious song floated on the misty lake. The song came from a small boat, and a girl in the boat sang and laughed, roaming the boat and picking lotus, entertaining herself.
It is almost early autumn, and the lotus leaves are not broken, and the lotus meat is not solid. Shengze is also a place where fish and rice are densely populated. Many young girls like to drive a boat and make appointments for three or five playmates to play in the water to cool off the heat. They say they are picking lotus but they just need to block the mouths of adults at home.
Together with the singing, the girls singing Liu Ci Ou Ci whispered. After listening to a passage, laughter came from another.
Qian Yiqun stood at the bow of the big boat, looking at the small boats on the lake, listening to Jiangnan's daughter's soft laughter and singing, feeling refreshed.
Zhou Zhengqing walked to Qian Yiqun and smiled and said, "This song is interesting, and the whole piece is full of Chinese medicine."
Wen Yun and the others had lost the opportunity to invite Qian Yiqun to board the big ship before. At this moment, they hurriedly put together a funny smile and said, "This is obviously deeply resentful, but the little girl sang ridiculously." After that, they looked at Zhou Zhengqing with some resentment.
They had a tacit understanding and were about to provoke the relationship between Chen Xiangming and Qian Yiqun. Who knew that when the third time the boat was changed, Zhou Zhengqing invited Qian Yiqun to board the boat in public. Fortunately, Wen Yun and the wind changed their minds, leaving only Chen Xiangming alone with a blue face as if he had been beaten.
Qian Yiqun felt something was wrong along the way. These two young masters seemed to be particularly enthusiastic about him. When I think about it carefully, the cuckold Chen County Master also wanted to recruit him. Oh, I accidentally became a hot commodity in the eyes of others, but I didn’t even understand it yet!
However, how heavy is this hot commodity? The glory and wealth in the secular world do not seem to be attractive. What can you do if you have money? Do you enjoy it with air conditioning? In the end, it’s better to find a way to cultivate immortals!
Qian Yiqun's heart was whispered and secretly scolded himself for being confused: he went to practice immortality, but his parents and sisters are still in Wuxian! Qian's family is still in Suzhou! How can he leave without taking care of these things? At this point, Qian Yiqun remembered his parents in his previous life. He was so confused that he was now helpless to repay them.
"Are you here to pick us up in front?" Zhou Zhengqing avoided Wen Yun and his resentful gaze and looked at the pier. There were already lights and figures, and everyone was occupant in his hands, either drumsticks or gongs.
The people on the dock also saw the fleet that was coming with the word "title". Only a loud shout was heard, and drums and music suddenly sounded, and the gongs were shaking the sky.
Chen Xiangming's originally very bad expression improved slightly.
Seeing that the boat was about to dock, Qian Yiqun consciously walked behind Chen Xiangming. Although the boat was carrying the banner of the "Zhou" family, everyone knew that the real distinguished guest was Chen Xiangming, and even the nominal master Zhou Zhengqing did not dare to steal the limelight.
The big ship leaned against the dock, the boatman set up the springboard, and Chen Xiangming got off the boat first. There was a woman in pink clothes and heavy makeup waiting on the dock. Seeing someone coming down, she hurriedly greeted her, stepped forward and said deeply, and said with a smile: "Although Chen Daguan hasn't come for a few days, his temperament has become more and more admirable."
Qian Yiqun followed Zhou Zhengqing Wen Yunhe and after hearing the flattery of the half-old woman, he thought to himself: This flattery is too stingy.
A smile slowly oozed out from Chen Xiangming's face. Confucian disciples pay the most attention to "newness" and should be "new every day, new every day, and new every day" to show that their cultivation is more refined and they live up to the teachings of the saints. But he didn't think about it, and this was said by an old prostitute, and he was somewhat "pink".
On the other side, Master Li and Captain Zhu also took a springboard to get off the boat and came over. The old prostitute flattered him one by one, from Chen Xiangming to Zhou Zhengqing, and then to Wen Yunhe, and then Master Li and Captain Zhu. Everyone has a share, and they are suitable for their qualities and show their abilities.
"Mama Xu is already waiting for all the officials in the home yard. I dare to ask for the resignation of the emperor." The old prostitute took a step back and was blessed again at everyone. The sedan chairmen who had been waiting behind her had stepped forward one after another, fell down the sedan chair and lifted the curtains, and asked the guests to come in.
Qian Yiqun was also a part of it, and he saw that the parked sedan chair was not young and old. It seemed that there were quite a few distinguished guests this time. He was about to get into the sedan chair, but he heard Zhou Zhengqing call him: "Jiuyi, is it okay for you and me to be in the sedan chair? I have something to say to you."
Qian Yiqun slowed down and thought to himself: I have something to ask too!
He smiled and quickly walked towards Zhou Zhengqing's sedan chair, smiling, "I'm afraid I'll squeeze a little."
"What's the problem with getting closer to you and my brother?" Zhou Zhengqing pulled Qian Yiqun and glanced at Wen Yunhe with a slight pride, but he didn't even look at Chen Xiangming.
Qian Yiqun did not have as much thought as he did. Fortunately, the four-person sedan chair was quite spacious, and they could sit down with their shoulder to shoulder. When the sedan chairman got up, Qian Yiqun said, "Brother Wude, why did a prostitute show off such a big show? I'm afraid that Master Fu Zun will come here, right?"
Zhou Zhengqing smiled and said, "If Master Yuan Zun comes, he will not be so popular."
"That……"
"Today, the daughter named Xu Fo is out of the box, but it's actually..." Zhou Zhengqing asked again, "Does Brother Jiuyi know about Zhang Pu and Zhang Qiandu and Mr. Ximing?"
"I am from Wu, so I naturally know that "The Tombstone of the Five People" was written by Mr. Ximing." Qian Yiqun said.
"A few years ago, he invited more than ten party and clubs from all over the world to gather in Wujiang, and founded the Fushe under the name of "reviving the retro scholarship". " Zhou Zhengqing said.
"A little heard."
Zhou Zhengqing knew that Qian Yiqun knew nothing, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said, "He won the filial piety this year and will participate in the provincial examination next year, and he has a broad plan."
"What does it have to do with Xu Fo's daughter being married..." Qian Yiqun became more and more surprised. What's the matter with these scholars entangled with prostitutes? Can Xu Fo get the test questions?
"The secret techniques in my Confucianism are bleak. Zhang Pu's lineage inherited Cheng and Zhu's orthodox Neo-Confucianism. Therefore, if you want to make a splash, you must have an excuse to gather people in the circle, make friends with gentlemen, and shock the young people, and then you can go to Beijing to take the exam with confidence." Zhou Zhengqing said.
Qian Yiqun's mouth was stiff and he thought to himself: Why did I forget this? It turned out that this was a big gathering in the Secret Dharma Realm. No wonder even I had an invitation.
"I dare to ask," Qian Yiqun said, "Brother Wude is..."
"Oh, I'm the subordinate of Baohetang." Zhou Zhengqing was afraid that Qian Yiqun would not know, so he added, "What he practiced is the method of establishing the foundation of Xinzhai."
"Is it Mr. Yangming's French descent?" Qian Yiqun asked boldly, if there are geniuses in the world, then Wang Yangming must be one of them.
Sure enough, Zhou Zhengqing said: "My teacher is based on Mr. He Fushan's practice, which is the direct inheritance of Xinzhai."
Mr. Fushan is a great hero He Xinyin.
He Xinyin died at the hands of Zhang Juzheng.
Qian Yiqun secretly reminded himself to remember it so that he would not be able to distinguish his position in the future.
Zhou Zhengqing's talkative temperament cannot be changed. Seeing that it hasn't arrived outside, he talked about Chen Xiangming and Wen Yunhe. Qian Yiqun knew that Chen Xiangming was under Zuihua Temple. After careful correspondence, he realized that the owner of Zuihua Temple was Wang Shiqi.
Wang Shiqi is the son of Wang Shizhen, the leader of the literary world.
The Taicang Wang family is the remnant of the Wang family in Langya, and has been passed down from generation to generation. In the fifth and sixth generations, both brothers were named Jinshi at the same time, and they were known as "the four Jinshis of both swallows". In the generation of Wang Shiqi, there were ten Jinshis among the four generations of the Wang family, which was endless and a big family.
"Chen Linan is the personal disciple of Wang Shiqi, the owner of Zuihua Temple. He is one of the foreigners who have rarely received the true teachings of the Wang family in the past century." Zhou Zhengqing said a little enviously, "Jiuyi should know about the Gengxu Incident?"
Qian Yiqun shook his head awkwardly.
"On the 29th anniversary of Jiajing, the Tatars sneaked into Gubeikou." Zhou Zhengqing tightened his folding fan, "Wang Shiqi's grandfather was Wang Jun, the later governor of Ji Liao. Wang Jun was just a censor at that time, and he took a small road to Tongzhou and led the soldiers and civilians to resist the Northern Barbarians. In the battle in Tongzhou, tsk, I heard from the old man that it was shocking the world and crying ghosts and gods! Old Master Wang had a dragon and bird sword and a literati green robes. He rushed in and out of thousands of troops, killing the green robes and turned into black robes, and even killing the Tatars in a divine way, as if they saw a god! There was a strange phenomenon in the sky at that time, and dragons and snakes rose from the ground..."
After listening to Zhou Zhengqing's storytelling, Qian Yiqun was deeply infected and sighed: "I heard that Wang is famous for his political skills, but I didn't expect that martial arts are so domineering."
"Legendary sword is the sword of Wang Dun, the general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It is extremely sharp and is one of the best treasure swords in the world." Zhou Zhengqing couldn't stop talking about the treasure. "I heard that the sword is three feet and eight inches long, and the handle of the knife is incorrectly engraved with gold, and the dragon bird soars into the sky, and the whole body is cold. If you get the method, the sword light can kill ten steps away."
"It turns out that there are such treasures... But I don't think Brother Linan looks like the kind of domineering person who leaks his aura." Qian Yiqun said.
"The Wang family regards the investigation of things and the desires as their own mind method, and has another set of Seven-Star Sword Techniques." Zhou Zhengqing said, "As for the mind method, Linan has probably practiced well, but I don't know if the Seven-Star Sword Techniques have been passed on."
Qian Yiqun shook his head slightly. He was young and took his wife with him, but he was practicing some method of eliminating desires. Do you seek benevolence and make your young wife live a widow? Even if you don’t have money, you will be cuckolded on your head.
The sedan chair man lifted the two people and walked away panting. Seeing that the screen wall of the home yard was in front of him, he then took up another breath.
"Where is Brother Wen Bowen? Isn't it possible to spread it?" Qian Yiqun asked again.
"He? He has only been in class this year, and it's still far from entering the room." Zhou Zhengqing sent Wen Yunhe with one sentence, and thought about it and said, "But his Wen family is also a noble family. Not to mention learning other people's things, it would be great if he could learn his own landscape talismans well. He is so proud that he looks down on mysterious techniques."
This last sentence is for Qian Yiqun to listen to.
"Tactic method?" Qian Yiqun did not pay attention to Zhou Zhengqing's provocation, but only remembered the four most suitable paths for him: the magical talisman array.
It is too difficult to seek Dharma and art now. There is no need for you to find information, and there is no forum to ask you to post and ask your master. It is all passed down by word of mouth and visit you. Only when you have the fate, you can learn a little.
Foxes can pass on tricks and speak mantras, but talismans are absolutely unsuccessful.
Physiological structure determines that its claws cannot hold the pen.
"Bowen's great-grandfather Wen Zhengming studied in Wu and Chen." Zhou Zhengqing was cheerful and had a rich gossip spirit. He explained now, "Their sect was called the Shangu School. They passed down two people in one generation, one was an official who was a mountain, and the other lived in seclusion in the village. At that time, it was passed down to Wu Kuan and Shen Zhou. Wu Kuan was the top scholar in Chenghua for eight years, and Shen Zhou lived in seclusion for life. This is the reason. As a result, by the Wen Zhengming generation, the Shangu School was cut off, and the original Shangu School's high mountains and far rivers became the family heirloom of the Wen family."
Qian Yiqun was about to ask again, but Zhou Zhengqing suddenly yelled and said, "I don't know how time goes by when I chat with my brother. We have arrived!"
