This question is not about discussing history.
Instead, I want to write about my understanding of etiquette and my understanding of integrity. It is more like a piece of experience and self-examination.
Be sure to write about the Chinese virtues of "a land of etiquette", and be careful not to sing the opposite tune and include meanings such as "love ye ye ye te" in the text.
Yu Tiance wrote an article eloquently on a piece of paper. He quoted from many sources and wrote it in one go. He used the past to discuss the present, reflected on himself, and felt very satisfied.
After checking that it was still early, I calmly copied the article onto the paper.
Who knows, Jiang Nan and the others handed in the paper earlier than him. Maybe they saw such test questions, and the anger in their hearts became even stronger, and they were not in the mood to write any more.
Or maybe...
Yu Tiance walked out of the Gongyuan, and Shen Jing jumped up to greet him.
"Lang Jun, how was this scene?"
"fine!"
"Okay! I heard that the inn theater is playing Butterfly Lovers today. Let's go listen to the play and relax you."
Among the crowd, Jiang Nan stared coldly at the backs of the two of them, clenched his fists loudly, and said through gritted teeth: "This brat, I must let him know the consequences of going against me today!"
The Yuelai Inn in Chang'an is under the jurisdiction of the Chang'an County Magistrate. The government receives inspections from superior officials. Most of the entertainment expenses are earned from these side jobs.
Yuelai Inns across the country have basically the same design, with a rockery fish pond in the middle and a brothel in the back.
The first floor of the brothel is the soup house, and the second floor is the theater, a high-consumption place.
After entering the theater, the waiter greeted him.
"This guest, how many of us are there?"
"Both of you."
"Sir, please come with me."
Finding a small table, Yu Tiance and Shen Jing looked at the menu and ordered a few dishes.
In fact, there are some unreasonable things in later TV series. For example, when you enter a restaurant and order beef, it is very outrageous.
In a farming society, killing cattle is a serious crime.
No matter in the past dynasties, when a cow died, people would first ask a widower to do an autopsy to find out the real cause of the cow's death before disposing of the cow's body.
There has always been a saying in this dynasty that "officials do not go to the countryside." It is said that Taizu Li Longwu was worried that officials would oppress the people, so he stipulated the autonomy of clans in the countryside.
But even so, the elder in charge of a township must explain the true cause of the cow's death and compile a document and submit it to the county magistrate.
I arrived just in time, as the geisha had just appeared.
Jiang Nan and the other four young masters, after hearing what Yu Tiance and Shen Jing said, premeditatedly entered the theater on the second floor and sat at the entrance of the stairs.
As the old saying goes, it is only by coincidence that it becomes a book.
At this moment, the waiter came over carrying a large dinner plate.
Jiang Nan glanced at it accidentally and frowned involuntarily.
On the dinner plate, there was a pot of sauced pork bones, a plate of mixed lotus root slices, a plate of bamboo shoot tips, and three bottles of wine.
What caught his eye was not the dishes, but the name written on the wooden sign, "Xinfeng County, Yu Tiance, thirty-six tables."
Wang Min, the son of the Wang family in Xicheng, grabbed the waiter's wrist without saying a word.
The waiter was stunned, turned around and asked, "Master, what are you doing?"
Wang Min took out a tael of silver, weighed it in his hand, and put it into the waiter's hand.
Jiang Nan couldn't understand either and asked in confusion: "Brother Wang, what does this mean? I agreed to treat you."
Hi!
Wang Min took out a paper bag from his sleeve and raised the corners of his mouth sinisterly: "Brother Jiang, that scoundrel bullied you too much. If I don't vent my anger on your behalf, what kind of brother can I be?"
With that said, Wang Min pulled the waiter back to the stairs, looked around to see if there was no one, and poured all the powder into the wine.
"Send it to him now and don't say anything."
Although the waiter loved money, he did not want to kill anyone, so he asked cautiously: "Master, what did you let go?"
Hi!
Wang Min said harmlessly: "It's just some laxative medicine. This person is from my hometown. He has been suffering from constipation recently."
After finishing making up his words, Wang Min took out another one tael of silver and stuffed it into the waiter's hand.
Take people's money and eliminate disasters with them.
Believe it or not, he was given two taels of money, which was his income from serving dishes for a year. The waiter simply risked it and said warily: "This young master, if something really happened, it has nothing to do with me!"
"Of course, I can't tell you. Besides, does he know who administered the medicine?" Wang Min's face was full of confidence.
The scene where Wang Min stopped the waiter was clearly seen by Yu Tiance. Although he didn't see what happened at the stairs, it was conceivable that he was not holding back anything good.
Not long after, the waiter delivered the food to Yu Tiance's table.
Yu Tiance saw from the corner of his eye that five people in the distance were looking in his direction from time to time, and he was 100% sure that there must be something wrong with the food and wine.
Yu Tiance didn't get up. He used the table to block his sight and stuffed two silver ingots into his pocket.
The waiter couldn't help but be stunned.
Yu Tiance didn't move his lips, gritted his teeth and asked: "Little brother, tell me, is there something wrong with the wine or the food?"
The little boy's heart was pounding.
Twenty taels of silver!
He had worked at Yuelai Inn for three or four years, and in total he did not earn as much as he did today. At this time, his head was already numb.
"There's something wrong with the wine, it's the pot on the far left, sir!"
good!
Yu Tiance did not express his anger at the waiter. He still lowered his head, picked up the meat and took a bite. He gritted his teeth and said, "Put the problematic wine on their table and bring me a jug of good wine."
"Sir, please don't worry while I handle the matter."
Then, Yu Tiance stood up and deliberately blocked the waiter.
The waiter was also very smart. He stuffed the wine bottle into his sleeve, turned around and left.
Yu Tiance turned to a large piece of meat, placed it on Shen Jing's plate, looked at the stage intently, and laughed heartily.
Jiang Nan, Wang Min, and Edo also drugged me, so you can have fun this time!
Not long after, the servant brought three more bottles of good wine and reported on the progress of the work.
The waiter didn't know the names of those people, but he knew the location of the table. He gave the cook a tael of silver and put the pot of poisonous wine on the dinner plate of table No. 1.
A play that was performed with great poignancy.
Zhu Yingtai lay on the grave and cried. After the grave opened, she jumped in and two butterflies flew out...
Chang'an County is worthy of being a government office. It uses real butterflies all the time, unlike Xinfeng County, which just talks about it and describes the artistic conception.
After taking the test for a day, I was exhausted.
After watching the play, Yu Tiance left with Shen Jing.
Jiang Nan and the other two left early. The waiter said that they went to take a bath in the soup house downstairs.
If you give money, it will be a pleasure to do things.
Not only does he deal with misfortunes, but the waiter also thinks about you.
Originally, Yu Tiance wanted to go to the soup house, but the waiter persuaded him. Several county magistrates in charge of invigilating the examination, as well as the examiner of this government examination, and the governor of Chang'an Prefecture were also in the soup house.
In this way, Yu Tiance had better not go into the muddy water, otherwise it would affect his results in the imperial examination.
But it’s okay to fantasize about it.
He has already thought of Jiang Nan's five-person pool splashing, and the scenes of the governor and county magistrates panicking and screaming!
