Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

As the new head of the brothel, Yan Niang, the big oiran of "Luo Yi Guan", is naturally within the scope of the invitation.

It's a pity that as soon as the news came out, it was Miss Yunqing from "Wanhualou" who got the limelight.

"Yunqing, it seems that she has disappeared for a while, Xiaosheng thought she had chosen a good family to marry as his wife." In the teahouse, a scholar asked such a question.

For a profession like Qingguan people, talent and appearance are just basic skills, and neither of them may be able to tell the winner.It's a bit like the idol stars of later generations, who became popular for only three to five years.

The golden age of a Qingguan person is between sixteen and twenty. After this age, they will leave the industry to marry and take care of their husbands and children at home.Or retreat behind the scenes and train newcomers.

Miss Yunqing is eighteen this year, and she will leave this circle in a year or two at most.Moreover, she was recently deprived of the title of Oiran by Yan Niang, and she was left out in the cold.

For now, there is no prospect of a comeback at all.

"Yeah, I'm also surprised. Could it be that this Yunqing still wants to take back the title of Oiran from Yanniang? It's impossible! Now, Yanniang is standing behind Long Mingqing. It's just about talent. Look, Yunqing and Yanniang are only siblings, if you want to decide the winner, you have to see who is standing behind them. I think it's right, who else in this capital can surpass Longzai in poetry."

Ordinary people only watch the battle between old and new oirans for fun, but scholars pay attention to another aspect.

"Indeed, Long Zai's poems are excellent, and Xiaosheng also admires them." All living beings echoed for a while, saying that the only one who can compete with Long now is Li Mengyang. Of course, Master Li is still It is unknown whether he will live or die in the dungeon.

Could it be that the rest of the Seven Sons came to the capital?

Soon, everyone denied this guess.The other six of the seven sons are very famous, and any one of them coming to Beijing will be a great event in the cultural world, how could no one know about it.

There is only Tang Bohu who can be compared with the Seven Sons. However, after the case of cheating in the examination room, this person has long been depressed. What is he doing in Beijing?

"Could it be him!" Suddenly, a scholar exclaimed.

"Brother Li, what do you know, tell me quickly and listen."

Everyone also came to the spirit and kept urging.

The scholar surnamed Li was a little embarrassed: "My foolish brother is just guessing randomly. Do you think Yunqing invited Yang Shen and Yang Yongxiu, who is the son of Yang Tinghe, a scholar of the Imperial Academy?"

"There is some truth to this." The crowd shouted: "Yang Yongxiu has been very famous in the past few years, and his skill in poetry is not inferior to that of a dragon. When it comes to literary knowledge, he is even three times better than Long Mingqing." If it is him, maybe he can really win against Long Mingqing, and this Zhang Hou family banquet will be very lively."

When Yang Shen was mentioned, everyone was filled with excitement and admiration.

It can be seen from this that Yang Shen's status in the literary world or scholarly society is already the leader of the younger generation.

……

It has to be said that this Zhangfu banquet has not yet been held, and it has already created a huge momentum.

It would be a great thing if he could defeat Long Zai on such a big stage in full view and wash away his grievances.

Hearing the discussions among the scholars, Su Mu smiled slightly and said that he would have finished his breakfast before slowly going home with his hands behind his back.

Before I got home, on the way, someone suddenly called out: "Mr. Su, Mr. Su, please stay."

The voice seemed anxious and sounded familiar.

Su Mu looked back, but saw a sedan chair parked beside him, and a burly and fierce young man was sitting on the sedan chair.At first glance, it is the future owner of "Wanhualou", the thug leader Guo Shu'er.

"Huh, why is it you?" As soon as Su Mu saw his person, he had a premonition in his heart, so he simply stood still and slightly cupped his hands.

"Oh, but I can't afford to be a gift from Mr. Su." Guo Shu'er hurriedly jumped off the sedan chair and bowed to the ground, with an extremely respectful attitude, a smile on his face, and even a hint of flattery.

Su Mu helped him up: "Why did you come to look for me so early?"

"It's not because of Zhang Houye's family banquet tomorrow night, my girl Yunqing is going to sing the son's new song."

"Oh, I just heard about it." Su Mu nodded and said, "Miss Yunqing, have you mastered that piece?"

"I've already practiced it, young master, don't worry, I will definitely not embarrass you."

Su Mu: "That's good, that's good, so I have nothing to worry about, then... I have something to do at home, so I'll take my leave first."

After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands and was about to leave.

"Young master, wait a minute." Seeing that Su Mu was about to leave, Guo Shu'er became anxious and hurriedly stopped Su Mu.

Su Mu: "What else?"

Guo Shu'er took out a red invitation card from his bosom, and handed it over with both hands: "Tomorrow's competition has a great relationship with my "Wanhualou", and the villain is sure to win it. Therefore, I entrust the relationship to wait." The Lord's Mansion asked for an invitation card, filled in the son's name, and invited you to attend at that time, so as to give the villain some peace of mind."

Su Mu took a look at the invitation and was immediately surprised.

This post was beautifully bound, wrapped in bright red satin, and "invitation" was written in gold powder on it, which shows how much the Zhang family attaches importance to this banquet.

The characters inside are also written very neatly, and it can be seen that the writer has certain attainments in calligraphy.

Zhang Heling has a bad reputation, but the mansion seems to have talents.

However, Su Mu felt that there was no need for him to attend.The main reason is that I don't know the people inside, so it's not interesting to just run there and sit all night. It's better to write manuscripts and read books at home. It's more fun. ,

Everything that was just prepared has been prepared, and the rest depends on Yun Qing's performance.

Even if Su Mu goes, it won't be of any use.

Besides, Su Mu has extremely strong confidence in his new words.The song "Picking Mulberries" he plagiarized is one of the most exquisite masterpieces of Ming and Qing literature. As for Long Zai, he is now well-known, but there are no historical records at all, and he must have been a short-lived figure.If even a meteor-like character can't win, can a classic still be a classic?

Therefore, what Guo Shuer did was unnecessary.

After thinking about it for a while, Su Mu returned the post and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Su Mu has something important to do tomorrow night, so he won't go."

"Don't, you have to go!" Guo Shu'er yelled, "You can't go if you don't."

His voice was very loud, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.

Su Mu frowned slightly, feeling very unhappy in his heart, but he still said politely: "I'm really sorry, I really don't have time, just go back!"
