In the Ming Dynasty of this era, Kunqu opera had not yet appeared, but with the gradual prosperity of capitalism, a new bourgeoisie emerged.This group of people has money, leisure, and culture, and their pursuit of spiritual food has reached the point of thirst.

Among them, reading novels and listening to books are the mainstream forms of entertainment.

As for chasing Qingguan people, it is too advanced, and most people don't have this ability, but it doesn't prevent them from chasing stars.

The famous prostitutes in the building do not sell themselves, but they are no different from the superstars of later generations.

Therefore, the contest between old and new oirans at the night banquet of the Hou Mansion only took two days, and it spread among ordinary people in the capital.

"Have you heard that Miss Yunqing took back the title of Oiran from Yanniang again?"

"I heard that, actually, I also like Yunqing's girl very much. The reason why Yunqing was defeated by Yanniang at the beginning was not because Yanniang was young and her appearance was passable. What's more, she can dance in a weird way. Most of the people in the world like the new and dislike the old, trying to find something new. But after getting in touch with it for a long time, I don’t think there is anything strange about it. On the contrary, it is a quiet and elegant woman like Miss Yunqing who is really good. Therefore, Yunqing I am not surprised to be able to regain the title of Oiran."

"That's right, I'm actually not surprised. However, this incident has twists and turns, which is wonderful!"

……

Different from folks who only focus on the competition between old and new oirans, Shihlin and the cultural circles in Beijing are more concerned about the creative team behind these two famous prostitutes.

Everyone knows that the reason why Yanniang can get the title of Oiran is because of Long Zai.

When Long Mingqing first came to Beijing, what a scene it was. His good words were well-known, and he was praised by a little-known ordinary singing girl as the capital's oiran.

But on this night, Yanniang was actually defeated.

So, who is the one who wrote the lyrics for Miss Yunqing?

Seven sons?Impossible, Li Mengyang is locked in the sky prison, and the other six people are not in the capital.

Tang Bohu?This person has sealed his pen after being involved in the fraud case in the examination room.

Yang Shen?It's even more impossible, the Yang family's family education is very strict, Mr. Yang Tinghe is a famous moral gentleman, so naturally he would not let his son go in and out of the romantic place.

With this guess, Su Mu's name soon appeared in everyone's sight.The two poems written that night spread throughout the capital in an instant.

Whether it is the graceful and lingering "Plucking Mulberries" or the majestic "Linjiang Immortal", they are all immediately picked up by the people in the capital's literary circle, the officials and officials, tasted carefully, and then applauded.

In particular, the song "Linjiang Fairy" is known as the number one poem in the past 200 years.

Some people may have heard about Su Mu's plagiarism before, but when "Linjiang Xian" came out and knew that Li Shishi wrote the lyrics on the spot, that little doubt naturally disappeared.

Not only are these two poems firmly remembered by people, but even the seven-character poem he wrote in Baoding before has been dug out.

In three to five days, Su Mu's reputation was completely established in the capital.

Not to mention his other works, just saying "the green hills are still there, and the sunset is red a few times" is enough to establish his position in the literary world.Perhaps within a year or two, the word will spread throughout the country.

At that time, I don't know what Su Mu's reputation will be like.

This is just the beginning.

Su Mu didn't pay much attention to his reputation in the poetry world. Scholars in the Ming and Qing Dynasties took the imperial examination as their ultimate goal, and the resounding literary name could not bring real benefits. But in old age, it is not the same as being so down and out that you can't eat three meals a day.It can be seen that in this era, if you can't enter the officialdom, you are a fart.

The reason why he made the move this time was mainly to help Hu Shun. In fact, he mainly wanted to help Hu Ying. He felt that he owed too much to this little girl.Emotional debts will never be repaid in a lifetime.

I wrote "Dream of Red Mansions" casually at home for three days. In the early morning of this day, just after returning from a run, Hu Jinxue came over in casual clothes and said that Hu Shun invited him to talk.

Su Mu took the towel handed by Xiaodie and wiped the sweat from his forehead, smiled, and thought: "Finally, this matter is done, Wanhualou is willing to hand over the rule money to Jin Yiwei."In this way, a gap was finally opened in the monolithic Tianshui Hutong.As for how to expand the results of the battle and seize food from Dongchang, it depends on Hu Shun's means.

From the bottom of his heart, Su Mu didn't want to see Hu Shun.However, I saw Hu Jinxue whispering in Su Mu's ear: "Zi Qiao, you'd better go over there, you are not ignorant of my eldest lady's temper. If you don't come, she will come to invite her in person."

Su Mu was taken aback, if Hu Ying came over and met Xiao Die, they would inevitably quarrel again, well, let's go again!

When we arrived at Tianshui Hutong and passed by <Wanhualou>, Su Mu couldn't help but look up and take a look inside.

But I saw a lot of people waiting inside, and there were also many scholars standing at the door: "Dare to ask Brother Xiaoer, is Miss Yunqing here?"

"Master, don't you even look at what time it is, Miss Yunqing is still sleeping!"

"Then, when will Yun Qing get up?" A piece of silver was stuffed in.

Seeing the money, Gui Nu smiled happily: "But it's not sure, it's probably in the afternoon, otherwise, you go upstairs and wait."

"So, when will Xiaosheng see Yun Qing?"

"I don't know about that, there are more than a dozen book-reading husbands in line in front!"

……

There was so much excitement in front of my eyes, it was as if nothing had happened a few days ago.

Su Mu looked upstairs, the warm sunshine in the late autumn just shone on the ridge of the roof.

What a crisp autumn day, with blue sky, white clouds, and clear wind.

Su Mu thought of the woman who was spinning rapidly on the stage, and the tears she shed because of excitement when she fell to the ground, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she smiled.

As for Yun Qing, he was just a passer-by in his life.

Su Mu also didn't go in and out of the brothel, and he didn't like to be romantic, maybe from today on, he won't see her again in the future.

Miss Yunqing, take care!

……

Fortunately, when we got to the guard, Hu Ying was not there.

A table of wine and food had been set up inside, and Hu Shun had been waiting there.

Not only was he there, but even Guo Shuer was beside him respectfully.

Seeing Su Mu coming, Hu Shun was all smiles: "Mr. Su, you are finally here. Haha, Guo Shuer, how about me, Mr. Once I make a move, I will give you back the title of Oiran."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Hu is wise and powerful, and even your husband is a first-class talent in the world. The villain admires, admires!"

"What is my master?" Hu Shun snorted, and looked at Su Mu again, with a hint of embarrassment in his expression. After all, Su Mu never promised to be his master: "I respect Mr. Su very much." , Mr. Su is my teacher in my mind, the so-called one-day teacher..."

Hu Shun was obviously overjoyed. He drank too much and didn't have any rules when he talked.

At this time, someone in the back room suddenly slammed something on the ground.

Only then did Hu Shun realize that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly took a sip of his wine.

Su Mu's heart shuddered, there was actually someone inside, couldn't it be Hu Ying?

This Hu Shun is also the same, saying that he is a teacher for one day and a lifetime for... Isn't this messy, he will be my father-in-law for a while, and my student for a while... I'm afraid Hu Ying will be annoyed.

Guo Shu'er also wanted to laugh, but it took him a long time to hold back, and said respectfully: "It's due to the luck of our building that we met Mr. Su, and then flourished again. It has already been delivered. Don’t worry about Master Hu’s lack of things in the past. This month’s rules, Mr. Qian, have been prepared, so please send someone over to pick them up.”

"It's easy to say." Hu Shun waved his hand and let the two men go to Wanhualou.

Guo Shu'er was talking, and poured another glass of wine for Su Mu and Hu Shun: "I also ask Mr. Hu and Mr. Su to save face and drink this glass of apologetic wine."

"It's easy to say, you birdman didn't open your eyes before, and this officer is planning to deal with you. But, since that's the case, let's forget about the past. Isn't it just Dongchang, can it be bigger than our Jinyiwei?" Hu Shun was in a good mood, After drinking again, he started bragging: "Guo Shu'er, to be honest, if you don't pay the money, my master will personally lead troops to the door. As for the other buildings, does my master have a way to deal with them?"

"Yes, yes, Master Hu is right." Guo Shu'er complimented repeatedly, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart: What are you bragging about, when did you Jinyiwei become a bastard? The people who met Dongchang are like good grandsons. If you can fool others, you can't fool me .I came here to pay the money today mainly to thank Mr. Su for earning back the title of oiran in our building. I will definitely not lose the money from the East Factory.As for you here, there is no harm in having an extra copy.

The three of them sat down, each drank a few corners of wine, and said a lot of unnutritious words.

After a while, the two guards in Jinyi who were sent to Wanhualuo to collect the money came rushing over: "Master, is it bad, is it bad, something serious happened?"

The two people's noses were bruised and their faces were swollen, and their whole bodies were deformed. It was obvious that they had been beaten badly.

"What's wrong?" Hu Shun asked.

The Lishi cried, "Master, when I was going to collect the money, I happened to meet people from Dongchang who also went to collect fees. As a result, they beat me up and said that it was the site of Dongchang, and that the people from other houses were also going to collect fees. Get out of the way. The young ones reasoned with them, saying that each takes his own money, and the well water does not violate the river water. But those eunuchs were unreasonable, and said that the well water does not violate the river water, and all the money here belongs to his family. Then He knocked the villain to the ground with his hands, and even the fees were robbed."

Hearing that Dongchang's father-in-law was in his building, Guo Shu'er immediately couldn't sit still.

He was just an ordinary businessman, or he was about to become a brothel owner, so he naturally wouldn't offend such a powerful organization as the factory guard.

Now that Dongchang is in great power, Jinyi's pro-army is gradually becoming more and more powerful. The bosses of Tianshui Hutong only hand over the regular money to their fathers-in-law, but no one cares about Jinyiwei.

The reason why he came here today was not to sell Hu Shun's face, but for Su Mu.
