Taipingchun

Dear students:

It has been two autumns since we parted in Huating, and I often miss my brother.I don't know whether the junior has become a handsome talent, and I am especially curious.

Reminiscing about his voice and appearance back then, his younger brother was trembling when he first came to the county school, and later he laughed and cursed all the time, he was full of energy, and he really liked it.Studying in Wuzhong, the younger brother became a blockbuster, and he talked about Sanqu with eloquence. If there is something to talk about, he will become a master of this way in time. The younger brother also looks forward to seeing the exquisiteness of the Sanqu articles.

Brother Xue lived with Tao Er in the Susong Guild Hall after he lost the competition in Hongzhi 15 years ago. He was never sad because he was destined to pass the imperial examination, so he didn't need to worry about it.

Sojourn in the capital, this place is very prosperous, most of the northern regions have a heroic spirit, Shuntian mansion is even more grand, and has a different style from the south of the Yangtze River, brother Xue seems to have glimpsed the demeanor of the first emperor of Yongle, I admire him very much, I wish I could be born a hundred years earlier and sweep away the Mongolian Yuan Yu Mobei.

The high walls of the capital have gone through a hundred years of vicissitudes, and the civil fortress seems to be in front of you. I can't help the scholar's pride in thinking about Yu Taifu's feat of turning the tide. Yingzong Beishou is not inferior to my Han family's head, and is proud of my emperor's iron bones.

In my spare time, I also meet and communicate with talented people from the north and the south. My good friend Xu Zhenqing came to Beijing a few years ago. You are also familiar with this person.

In June, Mr. Wang Hua formally accepted his senior as a student. His talents and learning are like stars, like the peaks of mountains, and seniors can only look up at them from the hillside.He has a son named Shouren, who is really a god and man, far inferior to his elder brother, and he often feels enlightened when he talks about Taoism. Now he has left the capital to go to Shandong to take the provincial examination.When the student comes to Beijing, it is necessary to meet him.

By the way, that Tao Er now likes to pretend to be a woman to deceive scholars. There is a student named Wan Tong who is the same age as him, and it is very sad to learn that Tao Er has been crying for three days after a man died.

Hearing that Mr. Hetan's health has not improved over the years, he was very disturbed. He wished Mr. Hetan a speedy recovery, and also looked forward to meeting his classmates and younger brothers in the capital to relieve their lovesickness.

Dear little brother:

I haven't seen you for so long. This handsome guy misses you. I don't know how you are doing. Has the flesh on your face reduced a lot?I can't rub it, my hands are itchy, my heart is also itchy, it's itchy everywhere anyway.

It's a lot of fun to visit the mountains and rivers all the way to the capital, but it would be even better without that guy with a face disease to spoil the fun. Of course, he is taller, and I can't see him unless I look up. So, your heroic Tao Senior Ji has developed a good habit of not raising his head.

It's normal for me not to pass the exam, but do you know that Lu Er actually eats a bad stomach and has unbearable abdominal pain, and his performance is abnormal before the exam, which is really funny, haha.

Speaking of which, the capital is really prosperous, guess what is the first store you see when you enter the city!It's a brothel!My heart is really pounding.

In the past few years, your brother Tao has done nothing else, except reading and playing everywhere. I went to Juyongguan once.

Now everyone in the capital is saying that His Majesty is not good, just because His Majesty first added an official Taoist Cui Zhiduan as the Minister of Rites in the first month, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Fengxian officials. , Later, five Taoist priests were promoted, and the crowd was really excited.

Later, from the mansion newspaper, it can be seen that famines are everywhere. His Majesty has exempted several provinces from taxes and rectified the administration of officials. As a father, it is already very good. Eunuch, Your Majesty is still the Holy Majesty.

After briefly talking about the situation in the capital, now your elder brother Tao Ji is looking forward to meeting you in the capital.Well, without further ado, Wan Tong, who has a brain disorder, came to see me again.

May Hetan Gong recover soon.

Dear Brother Xiu:

The hometown is farewell, so there will be two springs, can my younger brother be well.I miss my brother very much.

Blessed by his mentor, Hui Erjia Jinshi was selected as Shujishi.In October of this year, when he was added to the Ministry of War, he once said: If you carefully refute it, there will be nothing wrong with common affairs.

Although his position is low, he is powerful. He dare not slack off as a brother. He follows the rules and regulations, human relations and etiquette, and takes the state affairs as the most important thing.

Waiting for Brother Xiu to compete in the next year, I will welcome you as a brother.

The mentor often misses Lord Hetan and hopes that he will recover soon. Hui is not happy with Lord Hetan, but he also sincerely wishes him a speedy recovery.

Do not read.

Written to Xu Hui of the Ministry of War in the year of Jiazi

……

Xu Xiu, who had been separated for more than two years, thought they had forgotten him. At this time, he sent three letters together. After reading them carefully, he was very happy and also a little stressed. Xu Hui was already in trouble It can be said that Daming's conscience lies in what kind of concept is given to the matter, and that he and the officials share the scientific path.There is too much difference between myself and him.

And Tao Ji's temperament can be seen from the letters, he is getting more and more funny, and the things he did make people laugh and cry, and he can't help but sympathize with the man named Wan Tong.

Lu Ziyuan's letters are the most normal, and the enthusiasm is in place. I can't help but read it several times, and I am also attracted by the pride of Beidi.

however……

"Hey."

Xu Xiu, who smiled for the first time in half a year, quickly returned to her depressed state.

"A Niu. Mister is awake." Xiao Yang approached gently.

At this time, he was already 16 years old, his hair was tied up last year, and he was no longer recognizable as a little bookboy.

"Let's go." Xu Xiu was overjoyed, and hurried back to her husband's room with Xiao Yang.

The house smells like herbs, and there is a pot of medicine simmering on the stove.

"Sir." Xu Xiu walked into the bed lightly and whispered.

"How long have I been asleep this time?" Qian Fu, who was full of hair and looked like he was seventy years old, said hoarsely.

"Not long, just one day."

"Ahem, little red guy lied to me again, it's almost winter."

"Sir." Xu Xiu couldn't control her tears and shouted.

Because in the past six months, Qian Fu spent far more time in a coma than when he was awake, which made him feel chilled.

Qian Fu's skinny and sallow hands slowly placed on the top of his head, patted lightly and said, "Why cry, I'm not dead yet."

"What are you teaching my disciples today?" Xu Xiu bit her lip and said, holding back her tears.

It's because since Qian Fu's illness, he has changed his usual indifferent attitude, and his teaching has become stricter. As long as his body permits, he will teach until he can't hold it anymore. Xu Xiu can't do it if he doesn't want to. With Mr. Lecture.

Only then did he understand that the husband was not willing to teach him before, but he just thought that he didn't need to be so strict and hardworking, and Qian Fu himself had time to teach him slowly.

Waving his hand, "No, there is nothing good to tell you as a teacher, and then it's time for you to practice on your own."

Qian Fu took a deep breath, his spirit improved a little, and he said with a smile, "It seems that this is a flashback, and the judge finally wants to cancel my name."

Tears had already blurred his eyes, and he said tremblingly: "No way, Xiao Yang, go and ask the doctor."

"it is good!"

Qian Fu smiled and said: "No, it's good to be useful. If you stand still, little sheep, if you dare to move, sir, you will dare to hit your Niu." The gesture was to hit Xu Xiu's head.

The lamb looked at Xu Xiu sadly, and saw that he closed his eyes in despair. At this time, Xu Xiu wanted to be reprimanded by her husband for playing the ruler again. When she was sick for more than two years, her husband often asked for the ruler, just to His studies, but at this time...

Xiao Yang knelt beside Xu Xiu, listening to the teachings that he might never have again.

"Shi'er."

Seeing Qian Fu holding his hand, Xu Xiu shook his hand back.

"You don't have words yet."

"Yes. The crowning ceremony has not yet been performed."

"You are a child with aura, just like your name, you are also a contradictory person, sometimes slick and gloomy, sometimes stubborn and innocent."

"What the master said is that the apprentice must correct himself."

"No, there is no need to change it. As a teacher, I don't like mediocre officials who are gloomy and do nothing. I believe in it...cough."

"Sir, take a break."

"No... nothing to rest."

"I believe that you are a person who is more capable of being an official than I am, but I don't want to see you become that kind of person. Now, I will give you a watch letter."

Xu Xiu's trembling hands grasped Mr. vigorously, and cried, "Listen, disciple."

Qian Fu nodded, his breath getting weaker and weaker.

After a long delay, he said: "Jun. I hope that my beautiful son will not lose his iron bones under the gentleness and humility, just like a steep mountain, proud and steep."

"Xiu'er, are you satisfied with the name given to you by the teacher?"

"Satisfied." Xu Xiu knelt down with sobs, and respectfully kowtowed to Qian Fu. If there is a teacher like this, what more can I ask for.

"it is good."

Qian Fu opened his cloudy eyes, pulled Xu Xiu and said with all his might, "Xiu'er must be a hero."

"gentlemen!"

After passing away, only the widow is left in pain.

……

In 1504 AD, which was the year of Jiazi and the 17th year of Hongzhi of the Ming Dynasty, Qian Fu Qian Hetan, who was called one of the two great masters of Qian Wang by the world, died unfortunately at the age of 43.

Qian Fu's whole life is like the words he gave Xu Xiuqi, so proud, so different, extremely proud, and very discerning right from wrong. He resigned after only three years as an official. Fu was very rude to him, but when he was framed, he stood up and rode hundreds of miles to testify for him.

Such a person is very contradictory. Such a person is just like his Tao: whatever moves the heart, just follow the heart.

As for his learning, there are many words to praise him, and only one example is enough.

"Articles are covered by the world, and this is the ultimate way."

Finally, let us taste the well-known song "Song of Tomorrow" handed down by this modern champion who is not well-known.

Tomorrow is tomorrow, tomorrow is so much.

I was born until tomorrow, everything will be wasted.

The world suffers from being tired tomorrow, and the spring and autumn are coming.

Looking at the water flowing eastward, watching the sun sink in the evening.

How many years will tomorrow be?Please listen to my "Song of Tomorrow".

In this way, as the final chapter of the 17th year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty, this page has finally been turned.
