Chapter 159 The Red Chamber 'True Love' - 57



Chapter 159 The Red Chamber 'True Love' - 57

The big ship was moored at Suzhou Wharf, but it did not attract the attention of the people, because there was a taller and more luxurious ship parked next to Jia Daishan's ship.

On the deck of the big ship, there were several young gentlemen, wearing brightly colored clothes, with condescending smiles on their faces. In front of them, several beautiful women were smiling, and two of them were pushing back and forth. Flirt with men like no one else.

In this area of ​​the south of the Yangtze River, due to the large number of literati, the etiquette here is stricter than that in the capital. Women from wealthy families who have not left the court usually wear a hat when they go out. Even if they don't wear a hat, it is impossible to flirt with men in broad daylight.

So the big boat next to it is clearly a flower boat, and those women are famous prostitutes.

"It seems that this wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River is indeed rich and rich." The Supreme Emperor silently compared the two ships, and found that his own ship was still inferior to others in terms of luxury, and there were only young men and women on board, and no middle-aged men were seen. , It can be seen that it is the prodigal son of a rich businessman.

Jia Daishan saw the depression of the Supreme Emperor, and after a little thought, he said: "Don't worry, the Supreme Emperor, there will be a chance to let these wealthy businessmen do their best for Daqi in the future."

You can die!

The Supreme Emperor nodded, and Yun Yao and Concubine Tai Shu came out together, followed by Jia Hu, Xing Xing and Jia Min also wore caps, and King Cheng walked silently at the end.

The stewards on the ship went down to negotiate with the port management office. What kind of regulations are they going to berth here for a long time?After a while, the steward came back and reported that it was not cheap to stay at the pier for many days, and the ship had to be docked to the side, so as not to affect the entry and exit of other ships, so the big ship moved slowly again and docked at the far left edge.

The steward and others stayed on the boat, and Jia Daishan and his team led the team into Suzhou City. Because they had to stay in Suzhou for a long time, they directly occupied the backyard of an inn, and the innkeeper smiled happily.

Everything is kept simple when going out, so the group did not ask for the top luxury inn in Suzhou, but chose an inn in a secluded alley.Leave half of the people in the inn to clean, and half of them go shopping with the master.

It is now May, and the weather is not too hot. It will be evening, and it will soon be dark, and the night market in Suzhou is also special.

Since ancient times, Jiangnan has been an important area of ​​the imperial court. This is the gentle township and the tomb of heroes. How many high-spirited officials have been corrupted in Jiangnan and become members of the corrupt elements.It is also famous for the prevalence of literary style in the south of the Yangtze River. There are many academies here and there are many scholars. Every spring, one-third of the candidates for the imperial court come from the south of the Yangtze River, and one-third to half of the total number of candidates are from the south of the Yangtze River.

Suzhou is an important area in the south of the Yangtze River, so it is not surprising to see many students wearing white gowns on the street.

Chunjianlou, one of the top restaurants in Suzhou City, is not the holiday time of the academies, and there are fewer students in the city, but there are still more than a dozen white-shirted scholars in the lobby of Chunjianlou, talking and citing classics.

Jia Daishan and his party were in the elegant room on the second floor. The Supreme Emperor and Jia Daishan were sitting by the window near the lobby. Only one window was open, allowing them to see half of the lobby.

Yunyao and Concubine Taishu were on the other side of the elegant room, leaning against the window near the street outside, because the street outside the window was not the main street, no one was passing by, so their window was fully open.

They heard that the food at Chunjianlou was excellent, so they abandoned other clean restaurants and chose Chunjianlou with more customers.

When she came to Suzhou, Yunyao couldn't help but think of the Lin family. Last night, she chatted with Jia Daishan about the Lin family. Jia Daishan hated Lin Hai, his son-in-law.

Yun Yao didn't know where Li Xie got the memory of reborn Jia Daishan, anyway, she just found it weird.

Now Jia Daishan is thinking about one thing, should he marry his daughter to Lin Hai?Jia Min is very popular now, and Jia Daishan was struggling to give Lin Hai a chance, so he didn't engage Jia Min.

Lin Hai and his mother are now in their hometown in Suzhou. When Lin Hai was ten years old, his father passed away, and the mother and son returned to their hometown in Suzhou from the capital to observe filial piety. After the three-year filial piety period ended, Lin Hai did not return to Beijing. He was here in Suzhou. He is 19 years old and is planning to take the provincial examination in August. After the local examination, he will return to Beijing with his family to participate in Chunwei.

Lin Hai is on the Jiangnan side, so he is not considered top-notch in talent and learning, he is still in the third and fourth place, so he is still young and talented, so many people want to marry the Lin family, Lin's mother is unwilling to choose a daughter-in-law in Jiangnan, and wants to wait for her son to pass the country test , Let’s talk again when we return to Beijing.Lin's mother and Mrs. Hou's orders are on her body. She wants to wait for her son to be admitted to a Jinshi, so that she can talk about marriage with a high-ranking family. After all, her son is just a white man, and the Lin family has no capable people, and her son has no one to rely on. , with a good Yue family, it will be smoother in the officialdom.

Yun Yao put the matter of the Lin family behind her and chatted with Concubine Tai Shu.

Concubine Tai Shu was the one who was really shocked. There are too many strange things in this world, and all kinds of people are different. There are all kinds of father-son, mother-son, husband-wife, brother-sister relationships in the market, and they have met them all. Foolish and unfilial people, even those who beat their wives, and those who are afraid of their wives.

Jia Daishan and the Taishanghuang were arguing over a scholar, and the Taishanghuang said that the man was boastful and had no real talent or learning.However, Jia Daishan felt that if that person could hone his temperament, he would be able to quote the scriptures so easily that he would be able to write a gorgeous article and be a man of opportunity.

Whenever they go to a place, if there are talents that Jia Daishan and the Emperor Taishang are interested in, they will definitely tell the emperor when they write back to Beijing, especially some talented people. Talents should be placed in the Ministry of Households, or those who are particularly good at river engineering calculations can also be placed in the Ministry of Industry, which is more useful than many people who have passed the Jinshi examination.

"Don't worry, the Supreme Emperor. I will not recommend people casually. I will write down the advantages and disadvantages of these people. Whether they can be used or not depends on His Majesty's choice. Everyone is useful, as long as they are used in the right direction."

Jia Daishan said so, the Supreme Emperor pondered for a moment, then nodded: "You are right, but what is the use of this kind of person who can only write rhetoric?"

Jia Hu and Cheng Wang stared at each other, and the two listened silently. Even if Cheng Wang had decades of intelligence, he was still a child when facing the Supreme Emperor and Jia Daishan.

"Why can't it be used? Now that Daqi is developing more and more prosperously, and Honglu Temple is receiving more and more foreign guests, the young man can go to Honglu Temple and write gorgeous articles, praising our Daqi, for foreign guests to read." Look at our Daqi’s vast land, rich resources, and outstanding people.” The exchanges between countries should not be cowardly, and our Daqi is the largest country in the world!

Not to mention, Emperor Xinheng is considering the reform of Honglu Temple, and there are still a few talents in the court who understand foreign languages, and he is already considering sending a group of officials to other countries, so that Daqi officials can go out to see and see other countries. Don't just know the country in the nest all day long.

The Supreme Emperor squinted his eyes, pondering what Jia Daishan said, it seemed feasible.Last time, his son’s letter was still reporting some of his thoughts. He wanted to inform his father, and also wanted his support. After all, as a decision maker, no matter what decision he made, there would be opposition. He urgently needed support. By.

After a meal, the sky was completely dark. Looking from the Chunjian Building, there were two lanterns hanging on each shop. The lights in the lanterns were flickering. Looking from the street or the end of the street, it looked like a winding fire dragon.

Because there were too many people on the street, the group of people did not stay on the street for long. When they walked out of the bustling market, the number of passers-by suddenly decreased, and they did not go to other places to hang out, so they went to the inn where they were staying.

Since the Emperor Taishang stepped into the land of Suzhou, all the officials in Suzhou, big and small, had received the news, knowing that the Emperor Taishang didn't like to work hard, so they all pretended not to know, and wanted to let the Emperor see a 'real' Suzhou.

It's just that the street of Huafang, the whole street's business suddenly became deserted. There are no wealthy businessmen and no officials to support, can it not be deserted?They were frightened, fearing that the Supreme Emperor would catch them going to the brothel, so the officials in Suzhou immediately settled down, and the well-informed wealthy businessmen also knew how to restrain themselves, and they all became good men who returned home on time.

The five young masters on the big boat at the pier in the afternoon were locked up by their father and severely beaten after they returned home.

Back at the inn, Yunyao and Concubine Taishu went to look at the rooms that people had tidied up. Jia Daishan and the Supreme Emperor were drinking tea in the courtyard, and Xing Xing was playing leaf cards with Jia Min and Cheng Wang Jiahu at another table.

Four guards in green clothes came in from the outside. After saluting, they reported the situation to the Supreme Emperor one by one.

Jia Daishan and the Supreme Emperor went to have fun, but they brought intelligence personnel who are good at collecting information. It only takes a few people to go to Suzhou City, and they can get back all the news about Suzhou from the secret hands arranged by the Supreme Emperor in Suzhou.

Suzhou is an important place, and there are only a lot of people assigned by the Supreme Emperor here.

"The prefect of Suzhou is still doing something. Although he is wise and safe, he has not lost his determination because of the beauties." The Supreme Emperor said flatly.

Not being completely corroded, but paying taxes exactly, and occasionally paying more, this is considered a good official.Jia Daishan only felt that the request was really low, and couldn't help sighing in his heart.

After finishing the official report, the head of the guard in Tsing Yi lowered his head and said: "Reporting to the Supreme Emperor, when I was passing by the rich merchant Lu's house, it happened that the master of the Lu family was educating his eldest son with sticks. I didn't expect that the eldest son of the Lu family was on the big ship this afternoon. young man."

It was beating and crying father and mother, as if Dou E's strange grievance, the resentment soared into the sky, causing old lady Lu to cry to death with her grandson in her arms, old lady Lu cried out for the dead old man Lu, let Mr. Lu hurriedly took their grandparent and grandson away, otherwise he would be beaten to death by his son...

The Supreme Emperor frowned slightly, with a calm expression. Jia Daishan knew that he must be in a good mood, and felt amused for a while, and waved to the guards: "Go down and rest, there is no need to inquire about anything today."

After resting for a day, on the second day, Jia Daishan and the Supreme Emperor acted alone, while Yunyao and Concubine Tai Shu took the younger generation to a scenic spot outside the city.

The author has something to say: Tweets, Wo's articles.

The article serialized in June, "Together with Me Flower Appreciator", ancient wear, the heroine is reborn, and the hero travels through time.
