It is not uncommon for various houses in Taixue to become jealous over the affair of prostitutes.
According to Wulin Chronicles, generally well-known prostitutes in the capital generally do not easily see customers (they hide themselves in high palaces). Rich businessmen and others think that just throwing money at them is enough. In fact, the more so, the less likely they are to meet customers. The most favored courtesans in the capital were the imperial students, and they would only show up after they arrived.
Therefore, the imperial students often get into troubles, and even engage in prostitution, which makes them jealous.
However, Taixue doesn't care about the students' prostitution, but it does care about their fights.
But the student is young and energetic, and cannot ignore his face. What should he do?
At this time, the two sides called a large group of people to agree to a teahouse, and the two sides started running around, just like young and Dangerous people negotiating together.
As for whether the two sides are competing for each other, comparing background, number of people, articles, and talents is unknown.
Anyway, there are many records of this scene in the Song Dynasty's notes.
But in Zhang Yue's eyes, it was like a school where they were fighting each other to get a girlfriend.
But I saw Liu Ji calmly brought a few Zhaisheng forward to negotiate.
Soon Liu Ji brought several of the other party's people to the banquet. One of the other party's people said: "You and I don't compete with each other over drinking wine. We will decide the outcome with wine chips."
Someone on the side presented a large bamboo tube with a pile of wine chips inside.
Liu Ji said to the people in his house: "Who among you will come to compete with Yue Shou Zhai on how much wine he can drink?"
Everyone looked at each other, and several people who usually drank well stood up immediately.
When there was only one person left, Zhang Yue thought that he could drink well, not to mention that today's banquet was for him, so he had to do it, so he volunteered: "Count me in."
Liu Ji took a deep look at Zhang Yue and said with a smile, "Okay!"
Immediately everyone gathered around, Liu Ji shook the wine chip first, then handed it to the prostitute beside him and said: "Everyone Wei, come and smoke!"
The prostitute smiled charmingly, then stretched out her slender hand and took out a wine chip from the bamboo tube.
But I saw it written on the wine chip: 'The tallest person drinks'.
As soon as everyone saw it, they knew that he was drinking with the tallest person in the room. Immediately, someone poured a full dime of wine for the two of them.
There is a glass full of wine in the wine glass.
A jiao of wine in the Song Dynasty was similar to a pint of beer today. A full wine glass is just a dime of wine.
There are also people who say, "For a cup of wine, one liter is called Jue, two liters is called Gu, three liters is called Zhi, four liters is called Jiao, and five liters is called San."
Zhang Yue looked at the corner of wine and saw that it contained about six to seven hundred milliliters, which was equivalent to three bowls of wine.
Zhang Yue couldn't help but think to himself, it would be nice if Tang Jiu was here on this occasion. He could drink fifty or sixty bowls of wine. Zhang Yue depends on his own condition. He is almost as good as half a box of beer. As for the white ones, he generally doesn’t drink them. He doesn’t know how high he can rank in the Song Dynasty.
But seeing that the two of them drank a dime of wine each, they were still stable. It seemed that they had a good drink capacity.
Another chip was pulled out from below, but it read: "Ride a fat horse, wear light fur, and drink the most beautiful clothes."
Everyone laughed, and immediately one person raised his wine and said with a smile: "My clothes are the most beautiful, thank you Wei for the wine!"
Zhang Yue saw that the other party was a twenty-year-old young imperial college student. He was obviously the imperial college student who had come to pursue the Wei family on an appointment with Shouzhai. Although his clothes were a bit flashy, he still had a good capacity for drinking and drank it all in one gulp.
Everyone drank more than ten cents of wine, and they were printing the sentence "Choose and drink together."
Even Zhang Yue was not immune to drinking a bottle of wine.
So everyone felt that drinking was not enough, so they switched to Five Elements Boxing.
That is, the thumb is gold, the index finger is wood, the middle finger is water, the ring finger is fire, and the little finger is earth, and then make punches according to the five elements.
Zhang Yue thought to himself, I can do this!
Since kindergarten, we have been using hammer, paper, scissors to win more and lose less. This is what we have learned!
After a trial, the opponent finally gave up. Before leaving, he also put down his words and decided to win with Yan She and Hu Tou another day.
Only at this moment did Zhang Yue understand what Liu Ji had meant.
But I like such a jealous competition!
But seeing the beauty leaning against Liu Ji's side, Zhang Yue always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, feeling a little bit like, "Do a good job this year, and I will marry you a sister-in-law next year."
The people who asked to keep the fast left, and Zhang Yue talked with Liu Zuo.
Liu Zuo and he introduced the students of the same school one by one. There are twenty-three people in Yangzhengzhai. Apart from Cheng Yi and one Ganfeng, twenty-one people came today.
After Liu Zuo pointed out a person who told Zhang Yue that this person was Wu Anchi.
Zhang Yue couldn't help but his eyes lit up. It was such a coincidence that he was living in the same room as Wu Erlangjun and Wang Anshi's son-in-law. It is the desire of heaven to achieve oneself, and the glory and wealth in the next twenty or thirty years may depend on this line.
Zhang Yue immediately stepped forward to greet Wu An.
Wu Anzhi is not tall, even a little thin, but he is extremely polite to others and treats people. Even compared to his brother, he does not feel that he has the habit of waiting for a yamen.
Zhang Yue introduced himself: "Brother Wu, I am from Pucheng."
Wu Anchi heard this and said: "It turns out that Brother Zhang is from Pucheng. I grew up in Beijing since childhood, so I don't know much about Pucheng."
Zhang Yue's expression froze when he heard this. That's right, Wu Anchi grew up in Beijing and was registered in Kaifeng early to facilitate the imperial examination. But if he mentioned that he was from Pucheng, then he would be more or less close to him.
Did Wu Anshi never mention herself in front of his brother? I still mentioned it, but the other party didn’t want to admit it.
Zhang Yue could not clarify his relationship with Wu Anshi anymore, so he simply said a few words.
Zhang Yue walked back to Liu Zuo and asked, "Where is this Brother Wu's ancestral home? Why does his accent sound a bit different from Bianjing's?"
Liu Zuodao: "He was admitted to Imperial College half a year ago. I don't know where his ancestral home is."
"Admitted?" Zhang Yue asked in surprise, "Aren't the children of officials exempted from taking the exam and admitted to the Imperial Academy?"
Liu Zuodao: "Yes, but in recent years, both the Han family's children and the officials' children in prefectures and counties have taken the exam. The Han family's children are determined to stay or stay, while the officials' children are determined to live in their homes. Therefore, if he didn't tell us, we wouldn't know that this person is an official's child. Still from the Han family."
When Zhang Yue heard this, he thought to himself that he and his brother were completely different in style.
"However, this man's clothes are the same as those of the imperial students. He also eats in the same room as ours. He is also very kind and considerate to others. Most of the people in the studio like him. However, he never mentioned a word about his origin. . On weekdays, it can be seen that the chief is more respectful and polite to him than others. Some people also say that this person must be an official, and the elders in the family are not young."
Zhang Yue heard this and thought to himself, of course, half of the Imperial Academy are descendants of officials below the seventh rank, but their uncle is currently the Deputy Prime Minister.
Liu Zuo sighed with emotion: "The children of officials like them are born with arrogance, and coming to Taixue is just a game. Even if they fail to pass the Jinshi exam, they will be the top candidates for Yinguan in the future. Therefore, they only need to study hard when they come to Taixue. , live in harmony with your fellow residents, and you will definitely have a good future in the future."
Xiang Qi from the side interjected with a sneer: "I think this Mr. Wu Erlang is not reserved, unassuming, polite to everyone, and being polite and thoughtful is alienating people. In his heart, he disdains to deal with us and doesn't want to be here at all." Make friends in Taixue."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yue felt that Xiang Qi's words were on point.
For these Hanjun disciples, Taixue was considered to have entered a noble circle, and they could make friends with many disciples from ordinary officials' families, as well as future Jinshi. But for Wu Anchi, this circle may not be enough.
Among his several brothers-in-law, the worst is Ouyang Xiu's son Ouyang Fa, the other two are like Lu Jianyi's grandsons, Lu Gongzhu's son Lu Xiji, Xia Song's grandson, Xia Anqi's son Xia Boqing, and one who is about to become his brother-in-law The third person is Wen Yanbo’s son Wen Jifu.
There is also a brother-in-law Wang Yu who is extremely smart and crazy.
With such a circle, he would not easily blend in with others.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yue couldn't help but feel relieved.
Zhang Yue returned to the studio that day, only to find it empty. Cheng Yi had packed his luggage and was about to leave Taixue.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Yue didn't understand why Cheng Yi was about to leave just two days after he came to Taixue.
"Brother Zheng, did I do something wrong? If so, Zhang is willing to apologize to you first!" Zhang Yue thought to himself that this must be something he said wrongly and offended Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi said: "It has nothing to do with Sanlang. I'm wrong. In fact, it was because of Sanlang. I talked with Sanlang for a whole night, which made Cheng realize something."
"Therefore, Mr. Cheng has planned to return to his hometown to study the knowledge of the sages. If only a few words can be passed down to future generations, this life will be enough. The feeling of meeting Sanlang will last forever, and it will not be too late to meet again if we have the opportunity."
After Cheng Yi said this, Zhang Yue was confused and said a few words to make Cheng Yi drop out of school.
What is this called?
Cheng Yi walked to the door, and Zhang Yue also saw him off, but Cheng Yi turned around and said: "Sanlang, my Confucian sage, Confucius, has been in danger for thousands of years since the beginning of the Confucian sage. After the peak of Confucian classics in the Han Dynasty, Tang You Han Tuizhi raised his arms and shouted, taking the lead, and since then there has been stability in this dynasty, and the two Lianxi people have taken the revitalization of Confucianism as their own responsibility."
"The theory of righteousness and sincerity comes from the university, and is similar to the Buddhist idea of 'clear mind and seeing nature', but it is similar and different. Our Confucian school should have both the theory of clear mind and body. Now if we, the Confucian school, do not talk about it, all of us will Take what the Buddha and the Elder said. Although the Buddha and the Elder can comfort the world and be compassionate to all living beings, in the future, who will teach it and make it useful, and who will do the work?"
Zhang Yue sighed: "Brother Cheng has a strong temperament, a close understanding of arts and sciences, and is committed to cutting down walls and isolated peaks. He will definitely achieve great things in the future."
Cheng Yi smiled and said: "Thank you Sanlang for what you said."
Speaking of this, Cheng Yi looked at the bright moon in the sky and said: "When I entered Taixue in the past, I put aside my bold words and became a disciple of Mr. Lianxi. I studied the path every day. I no longer had any ambition for fame and fortune in the examination room. . But the examination room still needs to be closed, otherwise how can we educate hundreds of officials and officials?"
"Everyone is ridiculing me, but only today did I realize that Cheng had underestimated the heroes of the world!"
After saying this, Cheng Yi bowed to himself, and then strode away from Taixue under the cool breeze and bright moon.
Zhang Yue watched Cheng Yi see off and thought of his last sentence. Why did it sound like he was entrusting the heavy responsibility of "educating hundreds of officials and officials" to himself?
Just because you made those bold words doesn't mean that I have the confidence to do it for you!
