You Ji took out several collections of poems and put them on Xu Yu's desk.

When Qi Yuan agreed to the competition, he made up his mind, anyway, he lost a lot of money, and if he won, he could still leave. It's not a losing business.Of course, he also knew that he was definitely no match for Xu Xuan, and now he had to use tricks if he wanted to win.

In short, let's see who has a thick skin and can mess around more.

Qi Yuan secretly cheered himself up, although his heart was uneasy, but his face was quite calm, he stood side by side with Xu Ting, and looked through it together.

Xu Yu said: "This is the poetry book published by the Dengzhou Chongzhen Museum. It contains some excellent works by scholars. Please take a look at it, Mr. Qi."

Qi Yuan put on a show, opened it to look at it, and opened his mouth and said, "Not good, not good."

Xu Yu followed his gaze, finished reading silently, and said with a smile: "I poured this poem into the moon and clouds. It is very emotional. It is considered to be a good work in recent years. I don't know why Mr. Qi said that this work is not good?"

Qi Yuan coughed lightly, shook his head and said, "In terms of affection, there is some, but it is a bit lacking in eternity, not enough in chant, it is far worse than Du Fu."

Xu Ting nodded: "Du Ling's works are sombre and majestic, they are difficult for future generations to compare."

Qi Yuan was secretly proud, and followed him to look down.

The comments on the next few poems have the same meaning, no matter what Xu Wei said about the poems, Qi Yuan shook his head and sighed, only saying that this poem is more romantic than elegant, much worse than the fairy Li Bai.That poem depicts the scenery meticulously, but it is far less precise and sophisticated than Du Fu's in discussing banquets and traveling in mountains and rivers.

Come and go, there are more than a dozen songs in succession, but none of them are good.

Seeing that he only compares Li Du with Li Du, Xu Yu couldn't help laughing, and simply closed the collection of poems, and said helplessly: "Taibai is so magnificent, it seems to be a god, and the blockbuster works of the Ministry of Industry are even more majestic and magical, but since ancient times, only this There are two people. If you compare everyone with the two of them, wouldn't there be no one to catch your eye?"

Qi Yuan looked at him with a smile: "Of course, it's difficult to look at the sea. Since I've seen good things, I don't notice anything else."

Xu Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, what kind of poems are there to appreciate?Not to mention that the brochure of the Chongzhen Museum in his hand is a Hanlin scholar in the imperial court, who dares to compare himself to Li Du?

Originally, he coaxed Qi Yuan to criticize poems out of selfish intentions - the Dengzhou Chongzhen Museum was opened by one of Xu Ying's subordinates, but all the collections of Shiwen must have some celebrities as gimmicks to sell well.Although Xu Yu can make some comments on his own, his talent is far inferior to Qi Yuan, a ten-year-old prodigy.So this poem review is to ask him to make a preface to the poetry collection, or to include some incisive comments.

Well now, this person opened his mouth saying that this is not good and that is not good, but his tone was exactly the same as that of Ruan Hong and the others.

Qi Yuan looked down on him, so Xu Yu naturally didn't want to mention the preface, so as not to embarrass others.So he called You Ji again, collected his poetry collection, and asked Ren Yan and the others for help when he returned to Beijing.

Naturally, Qi Yuan didn't know anything about this, if he knew that Xu Yu's purpose was here, he would definitely happily agree to shoot a bunch of horses out.

Now that You Ji took the things away, Qi Yuan was full of thoughts about the bet just now, and asked Xu Xuan, "Then Mr. Xu, who won this game?"

Xu Yu asked him, "In your opinion?"

"Of course I won!" Qi Yuan said confidently, "You think those poems are good, but I don't think so. You also think I'm right, isn't it because my level is higher than yours?"

Xu Yu was speechless for a long while.

Qi Yuan was a little anxious, and was about to urge him, when he heard him say: "Young Master Qi is right."

Qi Yuan: "!!"

"Really!" Qi Yuan was overjoyed, and was stunned for a moment, "Are you willing to let me go?"

Xu Xuan nodded, but said: "I've never imprisoned Mr. Qi, so why not let him go? Mr. Qi naturally leaves whenever he wants to, and stays when he wants to stay."

Qi Yuan jumped up happily, and suddenly froze when he heard the second half of the sentence, and recovered himself.

What do you mean he never closed himself?

Qi Yuan: "..."

"What do you mean?" Qi Yuan asked, "Aren't you looking at me here?"

Xu Yu said: "I'm just staying in the post house temporarily, unfortunately I'm in the same courtyard as Mr. Qi." After he finished speaking, he pointed to the two soldiers outside, "Those two are under Commander Luo and have nothing to do with my Dali Temple. .”

"You, you lied to me just now!" Qi Yuan became impatient when he heard this, he thought for a long time, thinking that he could leave, but who knew he got a useless promise, he jumped up in anger, and shouted all the way: "I don't care! You told me to go!" shouted and walked out.

You Ji saw that he was so angry that the square scarf was crooked, and he couldn't hold him back to talk.

Qi Yuan rushed to his room angrily, took the burden he had packed earlier, and walked out without any explanation.

How could those two soldiers let him out?The three of them quarreled again in the yard.

Qi Yuan quarreled for a long time, but seeing that he couldn't get away, he turned around angrily and entered the north room.

Xu Yu's spirit shook, so she had to suspend what she was doing and concentrate on dealing with him.

Qi Yuan is too soft to come hard, he went up to the first one, pointed at Xu Yu and scolded: "I, Qi Yuan, is a scholar from the Dingyou Division of Shuntian Mansion, and now I have suffered unfair injustice and am imprisoned here! Since you, Xu Yu, are here Dali Temple holds a post, but refuses to plead my grievances and give me back my freedom, what do you think of the laws of the Daxing Dynasty?"

Seeing his serious face, Xu Yu also straightened up and got up, cupped his hands and replied, "It's not that Xu ignored it, but Mr. Qi's words were careless and he refused to tell the truth. Besides, this matter is under the supervision of Dongcheng Bingmasi. Brother Qi is innocent, the soldiers and horses will decide and dispatch."

Qi Yuan also knew that Dali Temple was in charge of injustice cases, but the two soldiers couldn't possibly make sense, he had all his hopes on Xu Yu, so he had to drag Xu Yu into the water desperately.

I was thinking about what to say here, but who knew that Xu Wei might be impatient, and added, "In the laws of the Daxing Dynasty, other things are ignored, but those who need to take leave in case of accidents, the Imperial College students must put in the document book and pay homage to them." Report to the liquor store, do not leave the prison without permission. If you go home without permission... If you do something wrong... then you will be dismissed as a citizen."

Qi Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then looked over in a daze.

Xu Yu knew that she was running away?

He was startled and frightened, but he didn't dare to ask, and finally fell silent.

You Ji saw that he was in a bad mood, so he helped him back to the east room to rest.The more Qi Yuan thought about it, the sadder he became, and when he sat on the bed, he burst into tears again, twitching and thinking that he wanted to go home, he wanted to go back to his own home.

While persuading him, You Ji wiped his face and fed him water, and relaxed for a while.After seeing that he was wronged and went to sleep, he sighed and returned to the north room sweating profusely.

Xu Yu's official documents were almost finished, so when he saw him coming in, he called him over to ask about the situation.

You Ji sighed and said, "I fell asleep, but I feel very sad."

Xu Yu was also helpless, everyone said that Qi Yuan of Zhongyuanbo's mansion followed the rules and was cautious, but it was really a headache to think that he had such a pungent temper.

He pinched the bridge of his nose, sighed lightly, and said to You Ji: "In the afternoon, some people from the post office will come to invite you, I will write two letters first, you send them back in person, and one to my father, telling him that I will return to Beijing tomorrow. The other letter was for Gong Jijiu, saying that Qi Yuan was delayed because he assisted me in investigating the case. After returning to Beijing, I will go with him to pay homage to Gong's old mansion. If anyone asks, don't talk about it. He was arrested."

You Ji shuddered, knowing that this would firstly protect Qi Yuan's reputation, and secondly, he was afraid of getting involved in the escape of his son-in-law, so he nodded repeatedly, and after Xu Yu finished writing, he packed it together with a small stack of mailboxes that he had packed in the morning, and hurriedly I hurriedly set off back to Beijing.

Sure enough in the afternoon, a postman came to invite him. There were many officials coming and going at Tongzhou post, this post post was just showing his face, but the one who actually invited Xu Xuan out for dinner was the eunuch Cai Xian, who passed by Tongzhou post.

Although Xu Yu didn't want to go, it was hard to shirk.

In conclusion, the Supervisor of Rituals is the head of the Twelve Supervisors, so the Palm Seal Eunuch is also known as the Internal Prime Minister.This Cai Xian only acted according to the emperor's face for several years, and won the emperor's heart.Caifu's disciples are old and often occupy important positions, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he has power over the chief assistant.

Although Xu Yu was born in the Duke's Mansion, he will inevitably be an official in the court in the future, so it is not good to offend such a person early.

He changed his clothes and asked Yicheng for his address.

Who knew that the Yicheng had a strange expression, coughed lightly, and said: "On the Tonghui River, the father-in-law chartered a painting boat and invited a few famous prostitutes to accompany him. He said that he would go boating on the river and talk about poetry..."

Xu Yu: "..." On the night of the first month, it was dark, why did you have to go boating?In addition, the Tonghui River has a strong current, and it is not afraid of being blown by the wind and running a few miles away.

He was amused in his heart, thinking that these eunuchs have weird tempers, and they all like to ask famous prostitutes to accompany them, and he doesn't know what the habit is, so he could only laugh and say: "Then let's go, please sir lead the way."

Qi Yuan took a nap in his hut for a while and regained his energy.

He has already confirmed that Xu Yu must know that he did not go to the Imperial College.After much deliberation, since this is the case, let alone give up lightly.

He got up and wiped his face, rekindled his fighting spirit, and looked for You Ji again.Unexpectedly, the soldiers said that Xu Yu had gone to eat flower wine, and You Ji had gone back to Beijing to deliver the letter.He also said that they would come back tomorrow, and told him not to mess around.

When Qi Yuan heard this, he became even more anxious.The soldiers of the two soldiers were tired from watching him all day long. Seeing him fidgeting, they persuaded him: "Young Master Qi, whether you are wronged or not, you will know when you go back tomorrow. Why bother?"

Qi Yuan was about to despair, and said sadly: "You don't understand, I have been wronged enormously."

Seeing his miserable expression, the soldiers felt pitiful in their hearts, but they were afraid of being fooled, so they all turned away.

Qi Yuan was really in a hurry this time, he was just a dandy, he couldn't do what the big talent did, and he didn't want to do it, why couldn't he let him go home?Now as long as he can get out of this post house, going home is a certainty.But if he was caught back to the capital, he would have to be strictly guarded, and he didn't know when he would escape next time.

The more he thought about it, the more sad he became. After squatting in the yard for a while, he wiped his face and asked the soldier, "When will Mr. Xu come back?"

The soldier said: "How do we know that. You can eat flower wine in the middle of the night anyway."

Qi Yuan said "Oh", but stopped talking, and went back to the house by himself, looking for the stove and teapot and tea set that You Ji had bought earlier.

He knew that he didn't have much ability, and if he wanted Xu Yu to let him go, he could only find a way to please him.The throwing pots and chess games that I know are not on the table, only ordering tea is what nobles like them like.

Qi Yuan can make tea, which he learned from a wandering Taoist priest when he was ten years old.Thinking that Qi Caizi was a scholar at the age of ten, and Qi Caobao knew how to order tea at the age of ten, so it can be seen that the two are born very different from each other.

But his skill at making tea is considered a unique skill, so even Qi Laopai said that he is not good at serious reading, but he is proficient in heresy.When Qi Yuan was young, he showed off a bit, but when he was a little older, he would only play once at his grandmother's birthday banquet.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling sad again.Grandma's birthday is in late April, and I don't know how the old lady will be sad when something happens to me this time, so I have to go back before the birthday banquet.

Probably no one would have imagined that the majestic young master of the Qi Mansion would be reduced to the point of teasing, laughing and pleasing others.Qi Yuan was sad for a while, tidied things carefully by himself, and waited patiently in the east room.

Who would have expected to wait until the sun went down and did not see Xu Yu come back.

Qi Yuan gradually became impatient with waiting, and he couldn't force people to see it. As soon as You Ji left, the servant was also very impatient with him, so he brought him some cold food.Qi Yuan couldn't eat, and when the people left, his stomach was growling with hunger, but he couldn't find anyone to ask for it.

He sat there rubbing his stomach while waiting.

After another hour, finally someone outside spoke, it was Xu Yu who came back.

Qi Yuan hurried out to have a look.

Xu Yu held a wooden box in her hand, looked up and saw him, and even smiled: "They said you were looking for me?"

Qi Yuan nodded, feeling that something was wrong, and when he took a closer look, he found that Xu Yu's jade-like face was flushed red, and his normally majestic phoenix eyes were even more swaying, revealing drunkenness.

He murmured in his heart and couldn't help asking: "Are you drunk?"

Xu Yu shook her head, and only asked: "Is there something you need to do with me?"

Qi Yuan made up his mind, nodded, took him into the east room together, and put his tea set and tea cakes on it.

Xu Yu looked surprised, and kept looking up at him.

Qi Yuan didn't dare to play with the flower gun this time, so he sat there, aggrieved and said: "I know Mr. Xu is a good person. I really want to go to Yangzhou this time. As for the reason, I will definitely explain it to you in the future."

Xu Yu frowned slightly.

Qi Yuan rushed to the front and said to him: "I know Luo Yi and you are brothers, you are in a difficult situation. So I want to make a bet with Mr. Xu, if I can get Mr. Xu to say 'yes', you will help me." I send those two soldiers away, as for whether I can get away, it depends on my life, how about this?"

Xu Yu hesitated, raised her eyes and asked, "Why do you insist on going to Yangzhou?"

Qi Yuan was in a state of distress, so he could only say: "Just say whether you are willing or not."

Xu Yu hesitated for a while, then nodded slowly: "I'll just delay for you for a quarter of an hour. If you can't let me say hello?"

Qi Yuan bowed his hands earnestly: "Then I will agree to one request, Young Master."

The two quickly decided that they would just spread paper and rub ink, and Xu Wei wrote down the written statement with a swipe of the pen, then lifted his robe and sat down beside him.

Qi Yuan knew that he was serious, and thought that thanks to the fact that this man was drunk, he seemed to be easier to talk to than usual.

With a firm mind, he quickly placed a few tea bowls, then crushed tea bricks, put some in one by one, moved the small stove that had been prepared earlier from the side, and put the sand bottle on it.

Xu Yu raised her eyebrows and looked at him: "Do you know how to order tea?"

Qi Yuan nodded

But Xu Yu said: "If you order some landscapes, flowers and plants, there is nothing special about it. Why don't you order what I am doing tonight? If what you say makes sense, I will admit defeat."

Qi Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then looked back at him.

Xu Yu is usually very courteous, but now she doesn't hide her eyes, and looks at him with interest. Although the redness on her face has receded a little, her eyes are still full of water, and her thin lips seem to have been painted with lipstick .

There was a faint buzzing sound in the sand bottle.

Qi Yuan's heart skipped a beat, thinking he just went to spend the spring evening drinking flower wine?Do you really think that you are a child and don’t understand this?He clicked his tongue in his heart, looked away again, and began to think seriously, how could he order this romantic affair into tea?

The water in the sand bottle turned suddenly, and Qi Yuan knew the water was boiling by distinguishing the sound, and calmly poured the boiling water into the small copper pot.Then he lifted the copper pot with his right hand, poured water into the tea bowl, and stirred it quickly with a small spoon in his left hand. The tea powder instantly became viscous and the tea oil floated.

While rushing and stirring, Qi Yuan knocked all the way with the small spoon "patta pata", put down the copper pot, and saw the tea oil in the first bowl smeared layer by layer, and a few words appeared on it.

Xu Ting was secretly amazed, she had already stood behind him, and began to recognize him carefully.

The handwriting on the tea bowls faded away one by one, some with four characters and some with five characters, but all of them were very clear.

Qi Yuan's eyeballs slipped over, and he looked at Xu Ting's expression quietly. Although he was a little shy, he still read in a low voice: "Although the beauty is good, the three treasures of energy and spirit have been stolen by the wild fox. The brows are wrinkled, the waist is curled up, and the sex is wrong." People, son, don’t want to be knocked down.”

Xu Yu: "..."

The author has something to say:

Ps:

Ordering tea was more popular in the Song Dynasty, and Song Huizong was very good at ordering super realistic meticulous paintings. (After the Ming Dynasty, the way of drinking tea changed, and there were fewer people ordering tea.)

pps:

This article is empty, and the general official position system refers to the Ming Dynasty.However, the style of incense in the Ming Dynasty was not as prosperous as that in the Song Dynasty, and there were more requirements for clothes (for example, ordinary people could not wear jade belts), so it was a mixed dynasty background.

After V, Zhuohua will post some relevant information and knowledge, and friends who don't like it can turn off Zuohua.
