Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Chapter 126

In early September, Cui Xie sent Liu Zhuangtou to give gifts to Cui Xie's family, and he just packed up some paper and ink and sent it to Cui Counsel in Yunnan. The rest was to fix the water tanker.

He was able to pay for money here, but couldn't go to Zhuangzi to stare at him, so he had to ask both Zhuangzi to send out a construction progress report every five days, accurate to the amount of wood and the proportion of construction. Each copy is signed and drawn by the dealer, the steward and the craftsman, and is handed over to the home for archives. Then Xiaoliang, Xiaoshen and the reliable guys from the old store of Ju'anzhai will have nothing to do with random inspections, and take care of it, so I am not afraid to work. Procrastination and perfunctory.

The rice fields on Changping Village are facing the river, and the carts are built to stimulate the runners to scoop water day and night for irrigation. There is a dry field in Jiaxiangtun. Although it is also facing water, it can't be directly introduced into the field, so a Niu Li turntable waterwheel was built. When water is needed, the cow is asked to pull the turntable, and there is a wooden pole on the side of the turntable that is connected to the wooden pole on the axle wheel of the waterwheel, so that the water can be poured into the field ditches.

Someone is always staring at all of these. He just read the report, and in the rest of the time there is nothing important to look after, so he adjusts the tricks to teach his brother to endorse.

In fact, after Cui Heng returned home, he should have been handed over to Mr. Lu's discipline immediately, but he had too many bad problems outside—or the parents taught him to scold his brother like eating. Cui Xie thinks that he is ashamed, and is afraid that he will teach him badly, and he is simply locked in the room, only if there is no such person in the family.

If it were left in the past, Mr. Lu would have to find him to lead someone to educate him, but since seeing the beauty of the pencil, Lu Juren’s mind rested on the pencil and couldn't remember him.

Scholars stand three times, stand up morality, stand up for merit, stand up for speaking. Li De, he knew that he could not stand up; Li Yan...Although he saw a student who opened a bookstore in his host's home, it is not difficult to publish books, but it may not be passed on to future generations. Only this pencil is related to enlightenment. Well, it's Zebei's benevolent deeds that have been known for generations to come, how can he not allow him to worry about it?

He borrowed Cui Xie's notebook and practiced pencil writing for a while to familiarize himself with the characteristics of pencils. Even when he was in class, he didn't just hold the book and shook his head and practiced, but took a wooden board while speaking and writing, and let him take it back to copy when he finished speaking.

Seeing that he had learned how to teach Dafa with blackboard and chalk without a teacher, Cui Xie specially asked someone to paint a blackboard with ink, and gave him a block of talcum powder for clothes, and asked him if he wanted to use this instead.

Lu Juren tried the chalk and felt it was better than the lead made by burning, and shook his head: "Although the white clothes do not stain, the flour will fall off badly, and the texture is too soft. It is not as smooth as the hard cocoa. The white characters on a black background are not good-looking. It is still comfortable to read the ink characters. People copy the scriptures using magnetic blue paper and gold dust, but they love it because they are precious, but they are not as eye-catching as the white paper and black characters we are used to."

Cui Xie has watched teachers teach with chalk since elementary school. In college, they use whiteboards and black pens. Both are quite accustomed. No matter what Lu Juren likes to use, he just said: "Listen to Mr., then Mr. look at the newly burnt graphite. If the pen does not fit well, just talk to me if you want to be thicker and thinner, or ask Cui Daguan to tell Xiao Shen a little bit."

Mr. Lu had just practiced a pencil handwriting, and he was fresh, waving his hand and saying: "You don't need to worry about that. I want to teach people how to use this pen. If I don't use the same pen, how can I teach others." He hasn't yet. To the point where he went to the countryside to support education, he often visited Ju'anzhai, and occasionally saw scholars dressed in cold clothes and recommended the benefits of pencils to them.

As he was talking, he suddenly remembered: "Have you done the homework left for you last time? The poems do not speak a flat tone. It should be easy to write. Why haven't I seen you hand it in?"

...

Isn't it because there are too many things in the house and I forgot it for a while.

Fortunately, Lu Juren didn't want extremely strict rhythmic poems, and he could make them without scrutiny. Cui Xie thought about it briefly, and took a pencil quiz on the spot: "Shiniu is produced in the suburbs of Beijing, and the boudoir uses thrushes. The people of the time are heavy on snails and Dais, and they know this strange thing? Going into the kiln and making thousands of words on paper. With this pen, you will no longer have to worry about school funding."

Regardless of the flat metric, the confrontation requirements are not strict, and the temporary editing is not difficult.

Mr. Lu looked at the poem and laughed and said: "If you ask you to make an obsessive law, you will write an article. It is really simple and straightforward. However, the neck joints can match each other, and the whole poem can be rhymed to the end, and it is still within the character of the law poem. If true. The ancient style can be more lively. For example, if you use this'zhiyun', you can also use the neighboring rhyme'weiqiyun' in your poems. However, it can only be connected in a flat voice, and connected in an upward voice. Communicating."

He had a white board and a pencil at his hand, picked it up and wrote Pingshang on the top of the three parts and classified them into 15 categories, which can be adjacent to the same rhyme, while the Rusheng is separately classified into eight categories and cannot be connected with Pingshang.

The ancient rhyme is actually wider in later generations. The only sound card is stricter, which is the three tones of "Ping Shang Qi" in "Central Plains Music". In Nanxi opera, the entering sound can rhyme with the flat sound. in contrast.

Cui Xie also needs to take a notebook to write down. Mr. Lu stroked his beard and waved his hand triumphantly: "Just listen carefully, and take my board to copy it. Don't be distracted when I'm talking."

Of course it is easy without taking notes. Cui Xie also put away the pen and paper happily, staring at his board to listen to the class.

After talking about the interlinkage of neighboring rhymes, I talked about changing rhymes. To write an ancient poem, you don't have to rhyme to the end, just two sentences can change the rhyme, just the two rhyming sentences, the first sentence should rhyme. If you want to make a few more sentences and then change the rhyme, you can also use four sentences, six sentences, eight sentences...There is no special restriction.

But there is no limit, which means that you have to write long, not long enough to change the rhyme.

Cui Xie memorized many Han and Tang dynasties, such as "Dreamwalking Heavenly Mother Yin Leaving", "Shu Road Difficulty", "Three Officials", and "Three Bies". When I was in school in the past, I felt exhausted when I was carrying it on my back. After the exam, I wanted to give it back to the teacher. Now, although there are so many memorizations of ancient texts, it is not obvious that they are long and difficult, but I have to learn to write...

Thinking about the good things, if he could write an ancient poem that was passed down to later generations, which would be painfully recited by the pupils, it would be worthy of this life.

There was a mysterious smile at the corner of his mouth, and he rubbed his hands, looking forward to today's homework.

Mr. Lu just wrote "Three Ping Tiao" on the wooden board. When he looked back, he saw his eyes glistening and he looked excited, and he couldn't help frowning: "I just talked about how to end the sentence. What are you laughing at? Go somewhere else?"

Cui Xie quickly shook his head and explained: "Students used to write rhyme and antithetical poems in the past, but now they learn ancient poems with their husband, and feel that they have broad ideas and can't help but feel happy."

Mr. Lu gave him a slightly blank look: "You can't indulge yourself after learning the ancient style. Those who want to get a scholar in the imperial examination should make poetry in their profession! Moreover, ancient styles are not all incompatible with the law. Naturally, there are ancient poetry into the law. Pay attention to the flat and sticky rhyme, but there are alternate rhymes and flat rhymes, which is not the same as the rhyme of the rhyme."

After all the ancient poems were written by ancient people, after the self-discipline poetry rules were set, there were poets who wrote ancient poems according to the rules, such as Gao Shi, Wang Wei, etc. However, after hearing it, Cui Xie still thinks that the ancient poetry that does not fit into the rhythm is the best, simple, simple and easy to write, not as anti-human as the rhythm and antithesis of the poetry.

Lu Juren was willing to ask him to write obsessive sentences. Naturally, he was not the poet who wrote the ancient style and must strictly follow the law. When he left his homework, he still kept the old style that is not into the law.

Cui Xie could see that he had the will to push the pencil. Turning around, he asked Xiao Shen to burn some strong lead with the thickness of chalk, and found someone to hit a steel-edged pencil sharpener, and asked Xiao Songyan to send it to Lu. Sir.

Mr. Lu was busy designing a new teaching method, and he didn't even bother to ask him for homework for a while. Cui Xie stole his laziness and transferred the pressure of study to Cui Heng's unlucky child.

No matter how busy and tired he is studying, as long as he thinks of Cui Heng's miserable situation when he is doing the question, he will be more balanced.

"Imperial Daguo" has 73 chapters, the sequel is eighty-five chapters, the third series is forty-two chapters, and the thirty-two chapters of the "Dazhao Wuchen" are added. It is not a problem to produce a paper several feet high. Without taking the "Daming Law", Cui Heng couldn't get out of the house in half a step, and people became more honest day by day.

He is honest, and Choi Xie has time to do his own thing.

The first batch of flower water was packaged. Before it went on the market, he took out the bottle that Gao Su had tied the red string with, and put it in a box padded with soft silk. The package was neatly packed, together with five bottles. The production type was sent to his restaurant.

These days, Gao Su had become so popular with the autumn festival. He went to the noble family to drink and helped people to show how to set up the stage. He didn't even remember the fact that his foster father scolded him for eyeliner.

After receiving these bottles of flower water at first, he remembered that he and the Cui family had this old relationship, and he couldn't hear from ear to ear: "I almost forgot about this matter, Cui Jiansheng is indeed a sincere gentleman. Remember me! Hey, the picture on this box is still the best in the Three Kingdoms, but it doesn't match our heroic prodigal son."

The young man who brought the stuff in half bowed, and said with a smile: "It’s not that my husband and my grandfather will look after people. The person who gave the perfume from the Cui family said that this product has not been sold in the rouge shop, waiting for the adults to taste it. I dared to take out."

Haven't sold it yet?

Good good! It is finally his turn to lead the current trend, the day that makes people envious and jealous!

What's the use of wearing well? What's the use of a thin waist, and there is never a beautiful man with a thin waist in the book. Isn’t the most famous beautiful man in the Three Kingdoms Xun Ling who keeps his fragrance? If he leaves a jasmine scent in this winter, how many people will envy him?

The young man asked again: "Shopkeeper Lin said when he sent the fragrance dew, Jin Rongtang's fragrance can also be mixed with water. Would you like to try it?"

No matter, who hasn't drunk jasmine water before, and he also drank a lot of rose fragrance from foreign countries. After drinking it, he can't make the fragrance all over his body. It's better to apply it on the body.

Gao Su picked up the bottle of pure dew that he had tied the red thread to, lowered his head and sniffed, the fragrance of the flowers was pure, but it was light, and a little more rubbing was needed to achieve the effect of filling the seat. But if the incense is put on, should I go to others to listen to the play first, or go to Beizhen Fusi and Weisuo to get better?

After thinking about it, I felt that Xie Ying had been in the limelight before wearing the new clothes. If she got the new fragrance, she would run to the guard, a bit deliberately showing off. It’s better to sit in other places and wait until the flower dew of Jinrong Hall is officially on sale. People outside buy it and put it on, so that people who know him can smell it and say, "This is not the first use of Gao Baihu." What fragrance?"...

Isn't this better than taking a piece of incense to tell others that you have got a new floral dew?

He settled his mind, and immediately asked people to bring in those invitations that invited him to listen to the play, and no longer pick and choose, he was willing to participate wherever time did not conflict. Especially those who also have children who shade Jinyiwei, are more willing to get close. Not only do they comment while watching the show, but before the show is on stage, they also go to the stage personally to show them how to install the veil and put cigarettes to create the effect of a cloud of smoke.

When I checked the cigarettes, I had to twist and act, thinking that the incense of others was too vulgar, it was better to combine the fragrance of potpourri, apricot, gardenia...the Qingyuan of jasmine.

He wandered around the stage in Beijing, spreading his scent of flowers and elegance, which surpassed all vulgar theories. There is always a faint jasmine fragrance on his body, and people follow this tone to praise him for knowing fragrance and knowing how to use it. This breath is much more elegant than Chen Tansuhe.

He needs to be reserved again. He can’t say “inadvertently” that he uses flower lotion at every turn, and he can’t just take out the bottle and show it to others. He can only take it out when they ask him what fragrance he is using. The bottle shows off.

It's better to show off in this way than to wear clothes, but you have to bear with it a little bit and wait until the flower water of Jinrongtang is on the market!

He endured it for several days, and was anxious to send someone to urge their house to sell water, only to look forward to the official sale of his Xiao Qiao Xianglu.

On the day of the listing, the younger half of the capital was scented with fragrance. Before the name of Jinrongtang Jasmine Pure Dew was typed out, the person who bought it was disgusted and changed his mouth privately.

The incense dew endorsed by the first beauty of the Three Kingdoms is naturally the first incense of the Three Kingdoms, abbreviated as the short name, and the word "Three Kingdoms" can also be removed, and it is directly called the "first incense".

Gao Su finally waited for this day, chose a day to enroll in the Qiuxi class, let them dress up in the Three Kingdoms opera, and asked acquaintances and friends who had been instructed by wearing a perfume to come and join him at home. The Li Yu who took office, the two Zhenfu and the Qianhu of the 14th Institute... Although not all arrived, seven or eight came.

Everyone has heard that he is good for jasmine scent. When he entered the door, except for a few older ones, he also smoked jasmine, and the rest were covered with jasmine water. In the early winter, he smoked in his yard. Like summer.

Everyone smelled the scent, and couldn't help boasting that the owner was at the forefront of fashion. He was the first to paint off-season flower water, leading them to catch up with this wave of trends.

Hearing their admiration, Gao Baihu was so beautiful that he greeted the guests one by one, and walked in front of Xie Ying, arching his hands a little higher to make the fragrance in his sleeves diffuse more.

Xie Ying also bowed his hand in return, complimenting that the flower dew he sprinkled smelled good, and was the first to use it, leading a Beijing fashion. He wore narrow sleeves, but somehow there was a faint scent when he returned the gift. It was not the jasmine scent that filled the courtyard, but a light but very unique floral scent.

It's Gardenia.

It’s not surprising to admire gardenia in the summer. In this winter, everyone else sprinkles the fragrance of jasmine. How does he keep the fragrance of gardenia?

Could it be the special fragrance made by Choi Sang's family for him?

He couldn't help pulling Xie Ying over and asking in a low voice, "Is Mr. Xie's body sprinkled with perfumed dew, or is he wearing a sachet? It's rare to smell gardenia in this weather."

Xie Ying smiled peacefully: "I don't like incense, but I usually use Jinrongtang's scented soap to wash my bath. His family originally steamed gardenia water to a small extent, leaving a lot of dried flowers to use. Just made a gardenia-flavored soap. The quantity was not large, so I collected them all."

...

Miscalculated!

When he was still complacent that he was the first person to use perfumed dew, Xie Ying had already used Gardenia soap that he had nowhere to buy for months! He had already wrapped up all his fragrances when he had known it, so what did he show around so early! Let others know what the "first fragrance" floral lotion does

Gao Su’s flaunting heart "swish" left half of the child, and the other half came back when he saw the fashionable tight-fitting and straightening of the courtyard——

You can tell by looking at the clothes that what is fashionable, sooner or later, will be sold all over the street. At least he still occupied the title of the "first person" who used this "first incense", and he did not lose the new clothes of Xie Qianhu.
