Bastard’s Resurgence

The sky was clear, and the breeze was sparkling on the river. Lu Zheng stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the openness in front of him, his mood was extremely stretched.

He has been staying at home recently. After working hard for a long time, he feels like hair grows in his heart. As long as he stays in the room, he is inexplicably restless and itchy in his bones. At this time, he can’t stay at home. Now, work and rest are combined, there is a degree of relaxation, it is time to come out and relax.

Since the birth of the "boy", Lu Zheng has fewer things to take care of. The things at home can be arranged properly if there is a shadow of the child, and the "boy" outside matters are considered very meticulously.

Lu Zheng’s doorstep is the inland river of Liuhe County. From there, he boarded the boat and shuttled along the intertwined Jinling Inland River. The prosperous Qinhuai River is right in front of you.

The south of the Yangtze River is so good, with developed waterways. Jinling City is centered on the big river, and the river network is intertwined vertically and horizontally.

Lu Zheng wore a white robe today, with a glamorous look, Yinger was by his side, and the "boy" disguised his original appearance. He looked like a book boy in the robe of a book boy.

There are many talents in Jinling, and there are many rich talents like Lu Zheng who take maids and boys on trips, so their career is not very eye-catching.

On the Qinhuai River, even though it is daytime, there are still boats on the river. The more you go forward, the more lively the river is.

In fact, the painting boats on the Qinhuai River have long been different from ordinary fireworks.

In addition to the prostitutes who are looking for flowers to ask Liu, those who visit the Qinhuai River are more scholars, gatherings of scholars, banquets, and meeting friends. The Qinhuai River is the first choice.

Jinling City’s poems and literary clubs of all sizes are mostly located in the Qinhuai River. Not all merchants and clients of the Qinhuai River can board the paintings. Scholars are famous, and they inevitably need to raise girls. Therefore, there are many paintings on the Qinhuai River with the background of powerful and powerful people behind them.

Like Yangzhou, there are many levels of prostitutes in Jinling. The annual Jinling Oiran Competition is even more eye-catching in the south of the Yangtze River, and even the capital has talented people here.

"My son, at present, the four largest painting boats on the Qinhuai River are called'Bihailiantian'. They are Biyun Pavilion, Sea Mirage Pavilion, Liancheng Pavilion, and Tianshui Pavilion. , Moreover, these four boats occupy one side, almost cutting the Qinhuai River into four sections!" Tong Zi said.

He paused, and then said: "As long as the top painting boats must be supported by the powerful and powerful, in addition to the rich, they also need a large number of talents as their loyal fans. The Qinhuai River also occupies a place here."

Lu Zheng smiled and said: "The people of Jinling are really interesting. The four painting boats are named'Bihailiantian'. It is said that the talents of Jinling also have a saying,'Li Gu Su Liu Chen Lu Ruan'. These seven talents are unknown to other people. But this'Su' is Su Qing, he is my teacher, and he is now a Bachelor of Hanlin.

In addition, I also know that Lu Jun, my same-father brother, if I also have a place, then this sentence will not be easy to pronounce. "

Lu Zheng laughed, and he didn't take the so-called Jinling talents in his heart. Of course, among the seven talents, such as Su Qing, they also got a false name after spending a lot of money on the Qinhuai River for a long time.

This kind of thing is not surprising in Lu Zheng's previous life. Some officials and entrepreneurs always add the words such as a degree from a certain university, a vice chairman of a certain literature and art association, and so on in the self-introduction of certain officials and entrepreneurs.

Lu Zheng has long been familiar with these kinds of things. As for Qinhuai River's so-called oiran, it is also the same as those stars in the previous life.

If an oiran wants to get ahead, it is impossible for him to have beauty and talent alone. It must have a funder behind it, and it also needs packaging and hype to have the hope of getting ahead.

The so-called Bing Qing Yu Jie by those stars are only set up by the agency packaged by the agency. In fact, in the red dust, in the society of drunken gold and materialistic society, where is there still Bing Qing Yu Jie?

The same is true for the oirans on the Qinhuai River. The so-called kurans are just a kind of packaging. The so-called kurans usually recommend pillow seats in front of the rich and powerful, and only those young princes who are not familiar with the world will believe it. The beauty behind these packaging.

Like Lu Zheng, although he is not very old, he has been a man for several generations, and he has seen all this very thoroughly, so he has little interest in the prosperity of the Qinhuai River.

As for the reputation of the talented scholar in Jinling, Lu Zheng is now more pessimistic than before. Lu Zheng sought fame in Yangzhou because he was in an extremely difficult situation at the time. He needed to use his fame to get more resources and get the chance to participate in the imperial examination.

But now Lu Zheng has returned to Yingtian and he has a house. The township test he is going to take is completely different from the boy test. The role of fame in the township test is almost negligible. Under such circumstances, Lu Zheng's reputation for talented scholars is negligible. Up.

Another point is that Jiangnan talents are regarded as talented and arrogant in the direction of Dakang, and are soft and less conspiring. Because Gein Jiangnan is too rich, many so-called Jiangnan talents were held out from the powder pile of the Huafang brothel. It is not surprising that such talents are criticized, but Lu Zheng does not want to recite such a reputation.

In this state of mind, Lu Zheng's visit to the Qinhuai River is like a bystander. His mood is extremely relaxed. It is precisely this mentality that makes him different.

"My son, there is the Biyun Pavilion in front of you. You can see that the Biyun Pavilion stretches across the Qinhuai River, and the paintings are built like a tower in the sky. Such carved beams and paintings are unique to Jinling." The boy pointed to the riverside road with dense boats in the distance. .

Lu Zheng looked over and saw that there was a huge painting boat on the Qinhuai River lying across the river. The average painting boat was only two or three stories tall, but this one was five stories high.

From a distance, the painted boat no longer looks like a boat, but like a palace with carved beams and painted buildings. Today's weather is very good. The painted boat is bathed in sunlight and the background is a blue sky, which is really shocking.

"Biyun Pavilion" is a three-character dragon, flying and phoenix dancing. It is said that these words were written by Emperor Xiandi when he went to the south of the Yangtze River. Only these three characters demonstrate the status of "Biyun Pavilion" in the Qinhuai River.

With the "Biyun Pavilion" as the center, dozens of hundreds of painting boats are clustered around it. These painting boats guard the Biyun Pavilion in the middle, further emphasizing the extraordinaryness of the Biyun Pavilion.

After seeing the paintings here, Lu Zheng recalled the Slender West Lake in Yangzhou. It was totally incomparable, and it was not on the same level at all.

"Shall we go to'Biyun Pavilion" too?" Lu Zheng said.

"I look so far away, there seems to be a lot of people over there, it's very lively!"

"Hehe, it is naturally lively. Today is the top card of Biyun Pavilion, the birthday of Fan Duoduo, the first oiran of Jinling. I don't know how many talented people have gathered here! This is still daytime, and it is said that it will be displayed on the river at night. Thousands of lanterns!

Girl Fan Duoduo likes Kongming lanterns, there will be many Kongming lanterns flying into the sky at night, then the scenes are really vast!

Biyun Pavilion’s tariff today is three times more expensive than usual. Even so, people are still eager for it, and the most prestigious "Biyun Poetry Fair" is also held today. Girl Fan Duoduo has an extraordinary literary talent and her favorite poetry. Anyone who is the number one genius in Biyun's poems will definitely get her favor! "The boy talked eloquently, with great interest.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Then dare to be kind, I just happened to have such an opportunity today, let's join in the fun too?"

"But we won't go to Biyun Pavilion. We looked for a painting boat nearby and felt the atmosphere up close, okay?"

Ying'er smiled and blushed. I was really excited to hear her. Her little girl had a movie. Where is Lu Zheng's experience and the city mansion? She admired those oirans the most. When he was in Yangzhou that day, Yangzhou's top oiran such as Qi Lan waited I admire it very much.

And the scene in front of me is more prosperous than the Slender West Lake in Yangzhou. Such a large painted boat with Fan Duoduo, the top oiran in Jinling, lives on it. Such a woman is the darling of thousands of talents. They are both women and shadows. How can children not worship?

The three masters and servants drove the boat to find the dock first, and then the boy arranged to find a painting boat. This painting boat is named Izuunxuan, and it is close to Biyun Pavilion. From a distance, Izuunxuan is like a wing of Biyun Pavilion. There is a lot of voice in Biyun Pavilion, but it is quiet on Izuyun Pavilion. It's very true that the three-story painting boat Lu Zheng chose the top. There are not only cabins, but also open-air terraces. The top deck is unique to Lu Zheng. This place is really the most satisfactory place for Lu Zheng.

Only Ying'er felt a little regretful, because Biyun Pavilion was too big and tall, even on the top deck, it was impossible to see the situation in Biyun Pavilion clearly. He only heard the voices of people in the distance, and only saw The talented scholars in Biyun Pavilion came and went, flowed endlessly, but they couldn't know what they were doing.

There is a big cabin in Biyun Pavilion, it seems that a poem meeting is really being held. Around the big cabin in the middle, Biyun Pavilion gathers people from top to bottom, and you can see that there are talented people on the poem stand in the distance to make poems. , And then there were cheers, noises, noises, and women's laughter.

Lu Zheng asked two women to play the piano. Yinger was responsible for making tea. The sky was already dusk, and the sunset in the distance was gradually sinking. Lu Zheng looked at the bustling in front of him, and when he walked through the bustling, he saw the sunset on the horizon, this kind of scenery. It can be said to be extremely beautiful.

The boy called for a drink and food, Lu Zheng happened to be hungry, so he and Ying'er sat down to eat together, drinking half a drink, Ying'er suddenly exclaimed, "Ah..." and she pointed her finger in the direction of the boat. , Said:

"My son, look over there, isn't that the same year you were in Yangzhou?"

Lu Zheng looked up and saw that in the poetry stand of Biyun Pavilion, a slender man was shaking his head and chanting poems. This person Lu Zheng did know him. Ruan Shaolin, the second in the Yangzhou Academic Examination...
