Kaiyuan Merry

130. The Flower Envoy

() Wang Wei entered the apricot garden talking and laughing with all the Jinshi. From the architectural structure of the entire apricot garden in the Taixue, we can see its ingenuity.

After entering the gate, the small courtyards on both sides are "Song Master" and "Mei You". , for visitors to chant from time to time while walking.

There is a watch pavilion at both ends of the corridor, which echoes the small pavilions at the four corners of the apricot forest, reflecting the elegant and fresh taste of the owner.

On the four small pavilions in the four corners of the garden, there are inlaid plaques of "cloak", "Zhenxia", "Jingxing" and "Qingyun".

The cloak and pillow clouds——reflect the owner’s state of mind of focusing on mountains and rivers and longing for an indifferent and peaceful life; Jingxing——the sky represents auspicious constellations. According to legend, Shun ruled the world, and Jingxing appeared in the sky.Qingyun—colorful auspicious clouds; according to legend, during Emperor Yao, Qingyun appeared in the sky; the above two words are the wishes of the sage king to govern the country and the people's hope for prosperity and peace.

The 20 or so Scholars were actually divided into several small groups, two of which did not have a good relationship, one was naturally Du Wan, who was headed by Xinke No. [-], and the other was Fan Chongkai, who was second on the list.

The reason for the resentment is also very simple, it is because Fan Chongkai resented Du Wan's brazen words after the first place in high school. Generally, talented literati are more arrogant, and Fan Chongkai is no exception. When Kangfang got drunk and had sex with Ji, conflicts broke out again.

Fortunately, it was a literary battle. In the end, the two of them didn't win any battles. It was probably because the writing skills of the two were indeed very good, but the level of poetry writing was not so good. Those geisha were all How can a smooth and shrewd person offend a certain party, they can only keep making peace.

This made the relationship between Fan Chongkai and Du Wan even worse.

Fan Chongkai originally wanted to win over Wang Wei, who was also "hacked" by Du Wan, but only to find out that Wang Wei didn't participate in this kind of sex activity after high school. This is simply not the way to go...

As a Jinshi of the same discipline, how can he be so withdrawn, do he still want to hang out in the officialdom?

But at this time, Fan Chongkai had to admit that he really underestimated this Wang Wei. When he saw that Wang Wei had integrated into the neutral group composed of older Jinshi or Jinshi with a calmer temperament, he felt very uncomfortable. I have to admire this person's communication skills.

The one who was talking to Wang Wei was Xu Anzhen, who was nearly forty years old. For this kind of elderly Jinshi, many years of imperial examination career have completely worn away their arrogance, so Wang Wei lowered his posture and could easily match him. relationship.

Besides, Xu Anzhen is better at five-character poems, and so is Wang Wei, so just talking about poetry between the two can create a good atmosphere. While chatting with Xu Anzhen, Wang Wei didn't forget the other people in the group. His ability to control the scene is really outstanding.

Wang Wei's reputation was already good. After getting in touch with Wang Wei at close range, he found that his temperament seemed to be the same as the rumors said, and he was indeed very easy to get along with. From his eloquence, one could see the talent in his chest.

Originally, in this relatively neutral small group, there were unconvinced Jinshi who thought they were full of knowledge, and quoted various scriptures in their words, trying to force Wang Wei to show embarrassment, but Wang Wei also quoted scriptures in an extremely calm manner. After several rounds of verbal confrontation, the man was deeply impressed.

Sometimes the interaction between people is really not just based on which one has a big background and strong connections, but also depends on their own quality and cultivation. People with "hard power" can often engage with other people by virtue of their own charm. Good relationship.

After establishing a good relationship with these relatively neutral scholars, Wang Wei still greeted Du Wan and Fan Chongkai very calmly.

The so-called people who stretch out their hands and don't hit the smiling face, even though both of them were faintly repulsed by Wang Wei, they still returned the greeting very politely. Young literati like this who care more about their own image may fight more fiercely in private, but in At this relatively grand flower-exploring banquet, she also showed an attitude in line with her identity.

Then many officials from the Ministry of Rites arrived. Although the Prime Minister Song Jing hadn't arrived, a Deputy Prime Minister Su Ting came, which already made the Jinshi very excited.

Under the auspices of the master of ceremonies, after paying homage to Confucius at the altar, the Jinshi thanked the teacher, and then someone specially brought in more than 20 horses. : "The spring breeze is proud of the horseshoe disease, and once you see all the flowers in Chang'an" refers to such activities.

In this flower-exploring banquet, two young and handsome Jinshi were selected by everyone to act as the flower-exploring envoys. They rode horses around the famous gardens near Qujiang and even in Chang'an to find fresh famous flowers and pick them back for everyone to enjoy.

The setting of "Traveling Flowers" is to increase the fun and entertainment of this activity.Its process starts from the apricot orchard, and the two "Shaojun... Flower Envoys" go first, followed by other advanced Jinshi, driving horses and racing all over Chang'an's famous gardens. Wherever they go, they get precious flowers. Then came to the side of the Qujiang Pond where the banquet was held, and checked the folded flowers. If anyone turned back earlier than the "Tan Hua Envoy", the "Tan Hua Envoy" would be punished, and at the same time, the feast would be revelry, and there would be no return without drunkenness.

Undoubtedly, with his handsome appearance, Wang Wei became one of the two "Traveling Envoys", and the other was the equally young and handsome Du Wan.

At this time, there were already a lot of people in Chang'an watching the excitement. Of course, the "people" here, according to today's standards, at least live above a well-off life. At least there is no problem with eating and clothing. Otherwise, they would not have the leisure to join in the fun .

Only at this time did they realize what the already famous Wang Wei looked like. After seeing that Wang Wei's appearance was as good as the rumors said, the common people immediately made a noise.

The atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was relatively open, not to mention the relatively wealthy people in the capital Chang'an. Even in a place in Xingyuan, there were many little ladies from official families gathered. conquered.

It's just that although Wang Wei's poems have been widely spread and are considered very high-profile, he is extremely low-key. Sometimes he is obviously invited to a lot of banquets, but he turns down many of them.

This kind of banquet is usually attended by scholars who are taking the exam. It is like the announcement that the stars of later generations will participate. The purpose is to expand their reputation, because there are often literary figures or officials at the banquet, and it is a delivery company. Good time to roll.

Of course, there are also banquets held by more open and famous ladies. This is a kind of banquet with an ambiguous atmosphere. It's really killing two birds with one stone, beauty and future at the same time.

Wang Wei still goes to the former kind of banquet quite often. As a person of the Qing style mixed literary world, it is not a bad thing to make friends with more literati and officials. Although these guys are basically people who talk about the country, it is undeniable. What's more, the emperor shared the world with the scholar-bureaucrats. Of course, sometimes it was the group of scholar-bureaucrats who only talked about saving the country.

As for the latter kind of banquet, Wang Wei almost rejected it, probably only the Chongyang Climbing Event held by Princess Yuzhen, and he participated, and it was not without gain. Wang Wei appreciates it very much.

Because of this, although Wang Wei is very famous in the circle of noble women, not many people know him. Those noble women who often hear how good Wang Wei looks are more and more curious about what he looks like up.

Coincidentally, this time the flower feast can see the true face of this mysterious Wang Mojie.

Lu Yue, who was born in Fanyang's Lu family, came to this apricot garden excitedly today, wanting to meet this person she had been seeing all along. She really regretted that she didn't go to the Chongyang Climbing event last year.

Although according to the relationship, Lu Yue is still the younger sister of Lu Xiang, one of Wang Wei's friends, but they are actually two different families, and the relationship is not close. It can be regarded as a loose combination.

The reason is actually quite simple. As the family has more branches and leaves, there will naturally be more concierges in the direct line. Due to various reasons, of course they will be separated, some are separated by themselves, and some are like Wang Wei. Like the Hedong Wang family in that room, they were excluded after losing the struggle, but there is still a skin on the surface.

Lu Yue's best friend is Zou Ying, born in the Zou family of Fanyang. She did not miss the Chongyang Climbing event. After seeing Wang Wei's appearance, she kept showing off in front of Lu Yue, which made Lu Yue very curious. .

Seeing a large group of scholars wearing uniform uniforms coming to the apricot garden, Lu Yue couldn't help but excitedly said: "Xiaoying, show me quickly, which one is Wang Mojie?"

Zou Ying smiled lightly and said, "Yueyue, why are you so excited? Anyway, with Wang Mojie's appearance, he will definitely be selected as the flower-exploring envoy this time."

Sensing her best friend's teasing, Lu Yue pretended to be disdainful and said: "That's not necessarily the case, you all say that Wang Mojie is good-looking, and you will spread it ten times and ten times, even if you don't look very good, you will be recognized as good-looking." You've blown it out, I really don't believe how good Wang Mojie can be."

Zou Ying said dissatisfied: "You don't believe what I saw with your own eyes, well, you haven't seen Wang Mojie, but Cui Zongzhi and Wei Zhi have seen it?"

When Lu Yue heard the word "Cui Zongzhi", he couldn't help showing a look of infatuation, and said: "Young Master Cui is a real handsome man with a good personality. Although I have never seen what Wei Zhi looks like, I heard that this man The prime minister's son has a bad temper, so he's definitely not as good as Young Master Cui!"

"Then my Prince is not inferior to your Prince Cui in appearance! Moreover, the Prince has a good temper." Zou Ying defended.
