Seeing the stars shining in the eyes of several girls, Feng Ziying knew that she had really underestimated the lethality of poetry and songs, which she considered to be trivial things, in the minds of these girls.
Even the arrogant girl Qingwen was full of admiration. Feng Ziying felt that maybe she should really recall it. In addition to the poems of Mr. Nalan, what other poems from the Ming and later Ming Dynasties could be recalled for reference? Dress yourself appropriately.
It's just that the heyday of poetry was in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and it began to decline in the Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty had a slight return to the past, and the only people I can recall are Nalan, Gong Zizhen, Wang Guowei, and Zheng Banqiao. Otherwise, Use Taizu's lyrics to create a Qin Yuan Chun song?
I'm afraid that if you feel good about pretending for a while, Long Jinwei will come to kill you and throw you into prison. Although you are not in literary prison these days, your tone is too loud and you obviously have the attitude of swallowing up the world. It will bring disaster. It's inevitable.
"Master, the girl has been asking why this poem of yours seems to be intermittent, with the beginning hidden and the tail hidden. According to the meter, it should still be right." Qingwen stood in front of Feng Ziying, wearing a red waistcoat cover. On top of the white blouse, light cyan trousers and embroidered shoes, a charming and bright atmosphere hits her face.
"That's right. Tell your lady, please don't think of me as a poet or a sage. I am good at government affairs, and I only dabble in poetry occasionally. I am not an elegant person." Feng Ziying had to show off, and accepted Even though Lan Ci has come out, if he still says that he doesn't understand, Shen Yixiu will probably be really suspicious, so he won't bother to put his mind on it, which is just right.
"Every time I dabble in it, I'm so good at it. The girl even painted based on the two lines of my poem. When she said the painting was ready, she asked me to take a look." Qingwen had a naughty smile on her lips, "The girl also told me to wait for her to paint. So that after I read it, I can let my servants embroider one for my own use."
"Oh?" Feng Ziying was really shocked. Shen Yixiu is really a talented woman. She just copied Nalan's poems and she was able to paint according to them. It seems that she has to be more careful in the future and not be too pretentious. Don't force it, lest you overdo it and get struck by lightning.
"Qingwen, Miss Shen is so powerful?" Xiangling thought Baochai was already very good, but she didn't expect that Miss Shen was even more powerful.
"Well, I've been here for so long. Sometimes even Mr. Shen said that if the girl were a man, he would definitely be able to take the imperial examination. The girl is good at poetry and painting. It is said that it was known to everyone in Wudi a few years ago. Many people wanted to propose marriage to the girl, but the girl didn't like her very much, and Mr. Shen also has a very high vision, so in the end it was me who caught Mr. Shen's eye."
Qingwen showed off proudly.
This seems to be a clear compliment to Shen Yixiu, but actually a compliment to himself? Feng Ziying smiled and gave Qingwen a thumbs up in her heart. This girl has not forgotten her roots.
"It seems that your future grandma will outshine me in this aspect. I am under a lot of pressure." Feng Ziying pretended to be sad, "Why don't you leave the capital city early and go downstairs."
Jin Chuan'er, Yu Chuan'er, Xiang Ling, and Yun Shang all seemed to be in disbelief, "I'm staying well in the capital city, and grandma is going to get married in a few months, why do I have to go down?"
"There are only men everywhere, how can they lie under the skirts of women?" Feng Zi said in English, "Next year, my term of observing the government will expire, and I will definitely go down. Well, Xiangling, why don't you apply?" Going to Huzhou can take you to meet your mother?"
Xiangling felt warm in her heart, she was still thinking about her own affairs.
"Master, please don't delay yourself because of these little things about me. My mother has been contacted, and I feel at ease. If she is willing to come to the capital city, as long as she has a place to stay, I will feel at ease. If you don't want to come, I can send you some thoughts from time to time, which can be regarded as a sign of filial piety."
Several girls knew about Xiang Ling, and they all gave advice to Xiang Xiang Ling when they heard about it.
Xiang Ling asked someone to bring the letter early, but Xiang Ling's mother has not yet replied. It is not yet known whether this woman is willing to come to the capital city to follow Xiang Ling. After all, people from the south of the Yangtze River may not be able to adapt to the northern climate.
"I really want to go down?" Jin Chuan'er was also very curious, "What about the wife and aunt? What about grandma?"
"Madam and the others will naturally stay in the capital city, but grandma, let's see when the time comes." Feng Ziying shook her head, "But I can't live without you, and some of you will have to follow me then. "
The faces of the girls immediately turned red. There was something behind what they said. Jin Chuan'er and Xiang Ling both knew their father's temperament and could never be separated from women. For such a long time, they either went to Ma Xiang Hutong or they had to ask for Jin Chuan'er and Xiang Ling. Ling waits for bed.
Even Qingwen was ashamed after hearing that Jin Chuaner and Xiangling talked about it.
"If grandma doesn't go, then the two aunts can go, right?" Jin Chuan'er asked in a low voice: "Qingwen, does grandma know about the two aunts?"
Qingwen glanced at Feng Ziying, hesitated for a moment and then said: "Grandma didn't mention it, but you all know about it, but from the looks of it, I'm afraid grandma knows about the two aunts."
The reason why Jin Chuan'er mentioned the two daughters of the You family was actually to test the Shen girl's attitude towards herself and Xiang Ling. After all, she had been groomed by the master. In the eyes of some narrow-minded women, this is Overstepped.
Qingwen didn't understand Jin Chuan'er's meaning yet, but she felt that Miss Shen actually didn't care much about her aunt.
Feng Ziying didn't care too much. Shen Yixiu was a lady after all, so how could he care about such trivial things? It can be seen from the fact that she frequently sends Qingwen to deliver letters, and the letters are entangled in poems and prose. What this woman pursues is the exchange of ideological levels and spiritual conceptions. She casually uses sex to seduce people who are concubines and maidens. thing.
Smiling, Feng Ziying suddenly asked: "Did your girl ask Miss Lin?"
Qingwen nodded in surprise: "How do you know that the girl asked Miss Lin?"
"I just want to ask you, have you asked?" Feng Ziying said with a smile.
"I asked, and asked very detailed questions. I asked about Miss Lin's temperament, how long she had lived in Jia Mansion, how I and Miss Lin got married in Linqing, and whether Miss Lin likes poetry. arts,……"
Qingwen's words confirmed Feng Ziying's point of view. The opponent in Shen Yixiu's mind must be Lin Daiyu, not Eryou and Jin Chuoer.
Lin Daiyu and she were both from Suzhou. The Shen family came from a scholarly family, while the Lin family came from a noble family. Their fathers were both Jinshi in the same discipline, and Lin Ruhai was a Jinshi.
Although the death of Lin Daiyu's parents was a minus, having a life-and-death fate with her in Linqing was a big plus, so she couldn't help but not pay attention to it.
It seems that Shen Yixiu is really a very qualified doctor, at least he has found his position correctly.
If he really had to worry about Er You's identity as an outsider, or whether Jin Chuan'er and Xiang Ling had been teased by him, then he would be a little disappointed.
A woman who is too jealous is not a good match, but Shen Yixiu does this very well.
Jin Chuan'er breathed a sigh of relief. Since grandma didn't even care about the two aunts, she wouldn't care about herself and Xiangling. It seemed that this grandma was an easy person to serve. If she was like Rong Grandma Guofu Zhu is generally elegant and quiet, so that would be the best.
"Well, your girl and Miss Lin are both from Suzhou. They are considered hometown residents. With this relationship, they will definitely get along well with each other in the future."
Feng Ziying can only look forward to this, but Daiyu's petty temper may not be easy to deal with if she feels threatened by Shen Yixiu.
"By the way, Master, the girl also said that since I am not as busy as before, I will ask you to write a poem every month in the past few months, so that she can read it, and my servant will come and get it at the beginning of each month. "
Qingwen's words made Feng Ziying almost stumble, "Didn't I tell her that they were all engraved on the stone tablets in the ancient temple, and they were just written down? They were not original creations by me."
"The girl didn't believe it. She said that it didn't matter whether it was good or bad, as long as it was written by me, she would be satisfied and happy." Qingwen pursed her lips and said with a smile. It was obvious that Shen Yixiu also criticized Feng Ziying in front of her.
"Isn't this embarrassing?" Feng Ziying looked up to the sky and sighed, "Then I would really rather be busy. Writing poetry is much more difficult than doing work."
Feng Ziying's words were met with laughter from the girls.
People outside say that this master has a talent that transcends the world and cannot be limited by poetry. Now it seems that it is true, but this poetry is the essence of a scholar. No matter how busy he is with important things, he should still take a moment. Just put some thought into this.
*******
Jia Yuanchun was lost in thought while holding the letter.
The apricot cloud skirt covers her beautiful figure, the sky outside the window is filled with white clouds, and the birds are scurrying freely and happily back and forth between the eaves and branches, which also evokes the infinite reverie of Yuan Chun.
How nice it would be to be at home, where brothers and sisters could recite poems, paint, play chess and play chess without any worries, or just take a walk in the back garden, have a lively meal as a family at noon, and take a nap in the afternoon. , how comfortable.
But all this can only be in a dream.
This is already the third letter from the government.
The first letter said that Baoyu was ill, and the cause was that Feng Keng and Daiyu were engaged. Baoyu became crazy, threw the jade, did not think about food and tea, talked about everything, in short, went crazy.
The second letter said that Feng Ziying had come to the house and reprimanded Baoyu severely. He even wrote down Feng Ziying's words intact in the letter.
Jia Yuanchun didn't know what her father, mother and ancestors thought when they saw it, but she shuddered.
A sharp and profound analysis of the current situation of the Rongguo Mansion. The eldest brother and the second room have to be divided into three branches: Brother Zhu (Jia Lan), Baoyu and Jia Huan. With the current rate of decline of the Jia Mansion, it can really still be sustained. how long?
She had long known that Baoyu was not living up to expectations. As his biological brother, Yuanchun was also helpless. He was born with a good skin in vain, but he was a gold jade with bad things inside. Yuanchun did not want to judge Baoyu, but he also knew that it was a true portrayal.
Why did he encounter all the problems he encountered when he entered the palace? Could it be that the expectations of his ancestors and parents were that he hoped that he would enter the palace to support the family under such circumstances?
There are some words that don't need to be said. Yuanchun also understands that as the eldest daughter, she has to shoulder a heavier burden after the death of her eldest brother. This is what the ancestors and mother vaguely revealed. Although the father did not say it explicitly, But with Yuanchun's wisdom, how could he not understand?
But how can the outside world know what happens in the palace? Look at Concubine Xu’s tyranny, Concubine Su’s arrogance and cruelty, and Concubine Mei’s secretiveness, which one is easier to get along with?
Even the Wu family and Zhou family, who were concubines with him, were also recruiting a group of people. Thinking of this, Jia Yuanchun felt exhausted mentally and physically.
In the palace, not having an heir is the original sin, but the emperor doesn't even take a step out of his own palace, how can he seek an heir?
Fortunately, she also found out that not only she, but also the Wu family and the Zhou family, even the very favored Concubine Mei, had not been able to see the emperor for many years.
Feng Ziying told Jia Baoyu bluntly not to rely on others, but she might not have a vague intention to point to herself. Could it be that he also knew the true situation in the palace?
Fortunately, a third letter came from the house, saying that Baoyu was also stimulated after being taught a lesson by Feng Ziying, and was ill at home for more than ten days. Finally, he recovered, and his temperament also changed a bit, and he seemed to be willing. Be obedient and do something.
It's just that the whole family is still a little undecided. The main reason is that they are not sure whether this treasure will come from time to time. After a while, it may return to its old behavior, or even get worse.
Even in the palace, Jia Yuanchun often heard about Feng Ziying's reputation.
The Wu family and Zhou family who entered the palace with him were very hostile to him, but several concubines who had grown up children did not think much of Yuanchun. Concubine Mei and Concubine Guo were very close to Jia Yuanchun, and they did not care about Jia Yuanchun when they came and went. If we talk together often, Feng Ziying will inevitably be mentioned.
The trip to Jiangnan brought back millions of taels of silver to the court, which solved the court's urgent needs. It is said that even the emperor made an exception and drank a few glasses of wine that day.
Yuanchun also learned some news from the concubine. Zhongshu Ke took over the Kaihai affairs and immediately caused a storm in the south of the Yangtze River. Several salt merchant families had their homes confiscated. They were all related to Feng Ziying, but Feng Ziying hid behind the scenes. That’s all.
Now that Feng Ziying has returned to Beijing and has been relieved of her duties in the Chinese Book Department, she can return to the Hanlin Academy with peace of mind as her leisure editor. She will be promoted again when her term as Jinshi Guanzheng expires next year, which can be described as a feeling of great success.
According to the concubine, even the Supreme Emperor is now interrogating Feng Ziying and has people write a note about Feng Ziying's situation. This is a rare thing since the Supreme Emperor abdicated.
Since such a powerful person has become an in-law with the Jia family, of course he cannot let him go.
Yuanchun began to write letters.
