Chapter 189
Yang Liang walked with Princess Cuirou, and Huang Zezhong led the way into the main entrance.
Passing through the front yard through the verandah and passing through the garden, lanterns are lit everywhere in the Huang Mansion. In the early spring weather, buds are already quietly poking out of the soil.
"My master is warming up the pavilion in the backyard. In addition to Mr. Li, there are several other people who are students from this imperial examination. I am worried about selecting talents for the country."
The three of them walked all the way to the backyard. Before they got close, they heard the sound of singing and dancing. Through the window, they could see the bright lights inside.
Huang Zezhong took the two of them upstairs, stood outside the door, and said please.
Yang Liang followed Princess Cuirou into the Nuan Pavilion.
Suddenly his eyes lit up and he saw that the Nuan Pavilion was as warm as spring and filled with peonies, peonies, roses and other items. The weather is still cold now, but the flowers here are already blooming. There is an alluring floral fragrance in the air, and Yang Liang actually sees bees and butterflies lingering among the flowers.
There is an Arhat bed against the wall of the Nuan Pavilion. There is a middle-aged man, about 50 years old, wearing single clothes and shaking a cattail leaf fan in his hand.
Seeing Yang Liang come in, he pointed with his cattail leaf fan and said, "Look, Jie Yuanlang from Pingzhou is here."
Yang Liang lifted up the hem of his robe, bowed and said: "Student, I have seen you. You are blessed with good health, long life and good health. Now your family, country and the world rest on your shoulders. You should take good care of your body."
"Hahaha."
Huang Shoufu laughed heartily, stood up and stepped forward with his cloth shoes: "Today is a private banquet, so there is no need to be polite. I just want to get closer to young people like you, and I also choose talents for the country. Don't dislike me."
"Sir, you are kidding me. You are handsome and graceful. You are like an ancient saint. You are a role model for students to follow."
"Hahaha."
Huang Shoufu smiled even more happily. It seemed that Yang Liang was also a man who knew how to get things done. In addition, he was talented. If he could be accepted into his sect, he would also be an effective general in the court in the future.
"Sit, sit down."
Huang Shoufu returned to his seat, clapped his hands gently, and maids rushed up to him and presented him with fine wines.
There are melodious strings playing, and there are dancers accompanying the dance, both singing and dancing are excellent.
Yang Liangzhong secretly admired that rich people really know how to enjoy themselves, and Huang Shoufu's luxury can no longer be solved simply by having money.
"Master Li, what do you think of my Nuan Pavilion?"
Just as Yang Liang was about to stand up, Huang Shoufu waved his hand and said, "Just sit down and talk. Today is a private banquet, so there is no need to be formal."
"Thank you, sir." Yang Liang said, "It's still very cold in spring outside, but here, sir, it's as warm as spring, and there are flowers in bloom. It's really a grand scene in the world. The students still feel a bit hot in their cotton-padded clothes."
Huang Shoufu waved his hand and asked the maid to open the window slightly. A gust of night breeze came and everyone felt much refreshed. "
"I'm from the south, and I'm naturally afraid of the cold. I couldn't stand the cold winter in the capital. So I invited craftsmen to come and put a lot of thought into building this warm pavilion. It can be regarded as a place to meet guests and drink tea in my free time. .”
"What a wonderful idea, sir."
"It is truly a miraculous craftsmanship to be able to bring the scenery of spring into the Nuan Pavilion."
Huang Shoufu's voice fell to the ground, and there was a sound of flattery in the room.
Yang Liang was among them, knowing that it was time to flatter someone's bad feet again, but he still hadn't figured out how to flatter him decently without being embarrassed.
Huang Shoufu's face was smug. He shook the cattail leaf fan in his hand and said, "You might as well guess how this Nuan Pavilion was built?"
Everyone frowned in thought, and some even stood up and looked around the wall.
Yang Liang also felt a little curious. He had been observing it since he first came in.
The only thing that can be used for heating in the winter in the North is coal. Huang Shoufu's family naturally doesn't worry about money. The key is that this thermal pavilion is mainly made of wooden structure, and the thermal insulation effect is minimal.
Everyone thought for a while and shook their heads.
"Mr. Li, you are from the North. Why don't you take a guess?"
Huang Shoufu called Yang Liang by name.
Yang Liang stood up, bowed first, and said: "When the student just came in, he saw these four pillars, which felt warm to the touch. I think the wonderful idea of this Nuan Pavilion should be found in these four pillars." superior."
"Wonderful, it is indeed wonderful. The craftsman thought hard for a long time, but Li Jieyuan finally said it." Huang Shoufu shook the cattail leaf fan and said with a smile, "Yes, I ordered people to build a stove downstairs, introduce the fire to the second floor, and order people to work day and night Only by lighting a fire can we have this warm and spring-like scene."
Everyone applauded, and Yang Liang mingled among the crowd and cheered along with them.
But I was thinking in my heart, I don’t know how much gold and silver it would cost to be so luxurious.
Being an official is great, no wonder everyone wants to be an official.
"Li Jieyuan." Huang Shoufu suddenly called Yang Liang's name and said, "I heard that you composed a poem at Mingyue Villa and was praised by everyone. I have also admired it for a long time. Since you have poetic talent, can you lend me your poetry? Compose a poem based on this scenery?"
"Adults are very talented. How can a villain dare to show off his poetry in front of an adult?"
"Even if you do it boldly, let everyone experience the talent of Pingzhou Jieyuanlang."
"Could it be that Li Jieyuan can't write it?" Someone stabbed Yang Liang. Huang Shoufu's position was limited, and Yang Liang grabbed a good position, so they couldn't get it.
Princess Cuirou said from the side: "It is not easy to compose a poem in a moment. Is Mr. Huang a little pushy?"
Huang Shoufu saw Yang Liang and Cui Rou walking together, but he didn't know their relationship. However, in the capital, Princess Cuirou is almost like a mascot, so there is no need to pay too much attention to her. "Oh, this is how Li Jieyuan's poetic talent is shown." Huang Shoufu said, "Why not limit it to one stick of incense. If you can't think of it at the moment, an old work from the past will do."
Yang Liang stood up, bowed first, and said: "I have little talent and little knowledge. I don't have any poetic talent, so I don't have any old works. Besides, Mr. Huang is the leader of the officialdom. How dare he do anything in front of you?"
Everyone shook their heads, it turned out that Yang Liang was nothing more than mediocre.
Although he was very happy to be praised by Yang Liang, Huang Shoufu was still somewhat disappointed.
Yang Liang changed the topic and said: "But when I saw the adults today, the student felt something and boldly wrote a poem."
"Oh?" Huang Shoufu's eyes lit up and he said, "Write it down quickly. I'll wait for you with my pen and ink."
In the blink of an eye, pen, ink, paper and inkstone were placed in front of Yang Liang, with a little girl around 16 years old holding the inkstone in her hands.
Everyone came over and looked at the tip of Yang Liangdao's pen. Yang Liang pondered for a moment, then waved it away.
Princess Cuirou stood aside and couldn't help but read softly:
“When you cut through the chaos, you will find black gold, which contains the deepest yang and meaning.
The fire burns back to the spring, and the furnace shines through the night.
Ding Yi Yuan Lai generates strength, but Tie Shi still has the heart after death.
I hope that everyone in the world will be well fed and warm, and will go out of their way to the mountains and forests without any hesitation. "
Yang Liang stopped writing, paused, and then wrote the inscription:
Li Qingyang of Pingzhou presented it to Mr. Huang, the first assistant.
He held the rice paper in both hands, presented it to Huang Shoufu, and said: "I see you today, like the brightness of the sun and the moon, like the warmth of a furnace, and I feel something in my heart. I specially composed a poem and presented it to you as a gift to Master Huang.
I also hope that you will not laugh at me and show your shame in front of the adults. "
"I hope that all the people will be fed and warm, and they will go out of the mountains and forests without any trouble..." Huang Shoufu repeated these words, with a smile on his face blooming like a chrysanthemum.
Yang Liang said thoughtfully: "Yes, this poem is made for adults. You are the coal of our prosperous dynasty, and you are the charcoal of all the people. You have burned yourself and warmed others. To be honest, I stand now I feel warm in front of you."
The talented people in Nuan Pavilion all looked sideways and thought to themselves, how shameless.
Everyone is here to praise your bad feet, why can you praise them so well and so wonderfully?
You are so good at complimenting me, yet you still let us mess around.
"Hahaha."
Huang Shoufu held his beard and smiled, saying: "That's serious, that's serious. I just did some things within my duties. It doesn't count."
Regarding this matter, the scholars in the hall took advantage of the opportunity and said frankly that Yang Liang said it well and wonderfully. Your Excellency is the charcoal of the Sheng Dynasty, enough to illuminate the eternity.
Huang Shoufu took Yang Liang's hand and sat down. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became. Not only was he good-looking, but he was also so talented and knowledgeable. The most important thing was that he understood me so well.
It's like a talent has come to Dasheng from heaven. I can't wait to have a heart-to-heart talk with him.
He looked at the maid holding an inkstone at the side and suddenly said: "This girl's name is Qinglan. I bought her for 18 taels of silver. Why don't I give her to Li Jieyuan to make your bed and quilt and have someone by your side to take care of her." "
The maid looked at Yang Liang, her cheeks were slightly hot, and she was very satisfied with his appearance.
Yang Liang didn't know why people here liked to give women away.
He coughed and said, "The student is already engaged in his hometown. Besides, I don't even have a place to live in the capital, so I don't dare to delay the girl."
"Asking her to serve you is not a wife. Just now you said you don't have a house, but I do have a few unused houses. You can find the housekeeper later and ask him to take you there."
Everyone around was shocked. In the blink of an eye, Huang Shoufu was about to give away the house to others.
It seems that Huang Shoufu is quite optimistic about him. He even gave him a house and a woman. If he later gives him the second place pick, it's just a matter of picking something up.
"Cough cough."
Cuirou coughed lightly and said: "I have adopted Qingyang as my godbrother. We are siblings. If you are serious about it, sir, please keep this maid with me for the time being. I will take care of him first."
"really?"
Huang Shoufu was a little surprised and a little regretful when he heard this. I thought to myself, why did this woman start so quickly? Yang Liang has already escaped from Princess Yushu, will he fall into the hands of Princess Cuirou again?
The other talented people looked at Yang Liang with a sense of gloating.
Women in the capital are very playful. Everyone knows what you are doing, sisters and brothers.
But seeing how radiant Princess Cuirou looked without any makeup, everyone felt a little jealous.
Princess, why not me? I can do it too.
While the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves, Huang Zezhong suddenly came quickly and said, "Sir, Eunuch Li from the palace has arrived."
"There is no need to tell you. Mr. Huang and I are our own people, so I came here uninvited."
Following the sound, Li Changtang has entered the Nuan Pavilion.
