Zhangqiu, Li Mansion.
The Li family's dishes are not like ordinary villagers in the village, which only focus on big fish and meat.
An exquisite fruit plate is essential, including dried fruits and fruit plates. If there are fresh fruits, a fresh fruit plate is also required.
With the addition of candied snacks for dessert, a table of exquisite snacks was placed in front of everyone.
Of course, there is no spring evening in this era, but it does not hinder the enjoyment of the rich and powerful families.
The top dignitaries would have their own small theater troupe. The nobles would be drinking and having fun, and the troupe would be performing on the sidelines. No one might be watching and listening carefully. In other words, just like someone turning on the TV, what they pay attention to is an atmosphere.
Ordinary families would spend money to hire a theater troupe, a juggler, or a storyteller.
The Li family invited the storyteller. The family was inside the screen, and the maids and servants served various snacks carefully arranged in their own kitchen. They listened to the storyteller tell popular storytelling jokes, which can be regarded as a unique atmosphere of this era..
Li Gefei was not considered a corrupt official. After their marriage, Li Qingzhao and Zhao Mingcheng used all their salaries to buy antique calligraphy, paintings and various treasures.
Later generations wrote a biography of Li Qingzhao, emphasizing that she and Zhao Mingcheng often saved money on food and clothing, as if their lives were very embarrassing.
But when Li Qingzhao went south, he loaded several ships with various rare ancient books and antiques.
A lot of money was lost one after another, which made Li Qingzhao extremely heartbroken.
Not only hers, but also those left by Li Gefei, which are quite valuable.
Officials of the Song Dynasty, even if they did not do anything extraordinary, could make a lot of money just by relying on their salaries and semi-legal gray income, such as ministerial money. Their income far exceeded that of ordinary people, even ordinary big landowners and big businessmen. , and cannot be compared with senior officials in terms of income.
After high-ranking officials, there are huge official and gentry families. For example, the Han family in Hebei is the top gentry family.
If the Song Dynasty had not insisted on the imperial examination to select scholars, these big families would definitely have formed the aristocratic families of the Han Dynasty, and the clans of the Wei and Jin Dynasties would have appeared again.
Li Gefei was quite restrained and his hobbies were very elegant, but he still accumulated considerable wealth after serving as an official for many years.
Not to mention anything else...
Just look at the study room used for holding family banquets on New Year's Eve. It is full of rare ancient books and various precious antiques. They are all worth a lot of money. Ordinary people may have to sell them for tens of thousands. Only an acre of land can accumulate so many good things.
When Li Qingzhao went south, he encountered many dangers. Later, an official wanted to marry her, if for no other reason than for the precious ancient books and antiques passed down from the Li and Zhao families.
Later, I discovered that Li Qingzhao had lost most of his collection, so he gave up immediately.
This shows how precious these things are.
It's not jewels, but it's still dazzling, and they are all extremely valuable treasures.
With the Li family's financial background, a small family dinner like this is really nothing.
"What does it say on the letter?"
It was also a coincidence that after dark, the servants of the Zhao family from Kaifeng City delivered Zhao Mingcheng's letter to the Li family. It was originally a happy thing.
But when Li Gefei saw Li Qingzhao frowning, he knew that there was probably something wrong with the letter.
"Mingcheng greeting the two elders……"
Li Qingzhao said gloomily:"I wrote to him. When I talked about the things in Liangshan, he either said he didn't believe me, or said that the leader Wang was just an evil person who wanted to buy people's hearts. What good intentions can the thieves have?"
Li Gefei was a little bit embarrassed. He said displeasedly:"This kid Mingcheng is too eager to be an official, so naturally he refuses to believe it."
Li Qingzhao said:"I asked him to come to Liangshan to have a look, but he refused even to death."
"useless. Li Gefei shook his head and said:"Both father and son of the Zhao family are the same. His father has done many things against his will in order to become prime minister. In addition to the party ban, in order to please the emperor, he deliberately sent you back to his father's house. If he hadn't been worried about the Zhao family, With your image, I have long ordered my son to reconcile with you. Now that Mingcheng's father has passed away, it's hard for me to say bad things about him, but Mingcheng also has the shadow of his father...after all, they are biological father and son."
Li Qingzhao remained silent. What her father said was the truth, but it just made her feel sad.
Zhao Mingcheng was also a young man in white. He liked reading, Wei stele, gold and stone, and Li Qingzhao had the same interests.
After getting married, the relationship was of course very good, and in the circle of scholar-bureaucrats Li Qingzhao was rumored to be a divine companion like a golden child.
But... since his father Li Gefei was classified as a member of the Yuanyou Party and ordered to retire, the attitudes of the Zhao family and Zhao Mingcheng changed drastically.
Li Qingzhao has been living at home for almost three years. Zhao Mingcheng did not take her back to live in
Kaifeng. He only exchanged letters with her.
Li Qingzhao believed that Zhao Mingcheng still had feelings for him, but being an official was his greater pursuit.
Zhao Mingcheng later became an important minister. The threshold. After all, the father- in-law has become the prime minister, and he is a powerful prime minister who has come and gone in battle with Cai Jing. The Li family is already a drag on the Zhao family in Kaifeng. Zhao Mingcheng cannot take his wife home before the party imprisonment is resolved. But Li Qingzhao He never thought that some private conversations between his young couple and some words praising Wang Lun's temperament and behavior would make Zhao Mingcheng very angry. At the end of the year, he even wrote a letter of denunciation, refuting it with great truth. He also ordered a special person to come over to deliver the letter before the year... It was as if Li Qingzhao's private letter could affect his future! Different opinions would not disappoint Li Qingzhao. But her husband's behavior really made her a little discouraged. Being an official, Is it really that important?
……
"Forget it, you little husband and wife don’t have any trouble with each other because of these external things.."
Although the father is quite dissatisfied with the Zhao family and his son, he must still focus on persuading them to make peace.
Li Gefei saw that Li Qingzhao was a little unhappy, so he smiled and said:"Didn't the Construction Department just set up the astronomical telescope? Come, let's go and see how the telescope works." The construction department was busy until the third year of the year in order to make money. The night before ten.
It was an eye-opener for many people.
Of course they don't know that there must be brave men under the heavy rewards. Of course, the craftsmen are not in a hurry to go home after giving them enough money.
What are you doing when you go back early?
Men these days, except for cooks, don't work in the kitchen, which is a joke.
Li Qingzhao was indeed very interested. He threw Zhao Mingcheng's letter away, stood up and said with a smile:"This is much more interesting than listening to storytelling. Dad, you didn't tell me earlier." The rest of the Li family were also very interested in this telescope. After all, I bought it at a high price and said I could see the moon and stars.
Of course, you can't look at the sun.
People from the Construction Department repeatedly reminded us not to look directly at the sun during the day.
Otherwise, vision damage will occur.
A large family walked to the stargazing room nearby.
They are also a family with real dogs.
A room was specially tidied up for the stargazing astronomical mirror.
"Okay, wait until I adjust the parameters……"
Stargazing and moongazing all require adjusting parameters.
Quite simple.
After Li Gefei adjusted it, he raised his eyes
"hiss……"
"It turns out that the moon is really a big ball!"
"What a bright moon!"
"These seem to be the barren mountains on the moon……"
"Terms such as Yuegong, Wu Gang, and Fa Gui seem to be fabricated myths."
Li Gefei couldn't stop thinking about it. Not only Li Qingzhao was anxious, but everyone else was also anxious.
"Oh, so beautiful, so beautiful……"
Li Gefei finally took a few steps back.
The thin face was full of sadness.
The mythical stories I had known since childhood were completely shattered at this moment.
Beauty is truly beautiful... and it was the same when Li Qingzhao looked down and saw it for the first time.
The bright and bright moon is a huge ball, shining brightly.
There are snowflakes falling in the mirror.
It is indeed a very beautiful scenery.
Moving closer, the moon is bigger and clearer.
You can see endless stretches of barren mountains on the moon, as well as shocking-looking deep pits.
But the emptiness and loneliness give people an endless feeling of desolation.
Sure enough, the old impression was completely shattered.
The previous myths, yearnings, and beautiful fantasies have all disappeared. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
No one can imagine the moon, Chang'e, Wu Gang's expedition to Gui, and the fairy rabbits running around in such a desolate scene.
Everything was like fine porcelain that fell to the ground and shattered.
Li Qingzhao stood up, with a strong look of disappointment on his face.
She felt that it would be difficult for her to write good lyrics related to the moon in the future.
"When will the bright moon come? Ask the sky for wine...the bright moon will come every day……"
"There are three people facing each other. The moon doesn’t know how to drink, and the shadows follow me.……"
"Alas, it will be much less fun to read these poems related to moonlight from now on."
Moonlight, moon shadow, there are many illusions in the poets and poets, as if there really is a fairy Guanghan, who has been looking down at the poets gently and enlightening the poets. At this time, all the illusions were shattered.
It was not just the scenery that was shattered. , and there are many popular science articles in the"Gewu" magazine.
For example, total lunar eclipse, total solar eclipse, etc.
The moon is not mysterious. It is just a companion star of the"Earth", just a little closer.
And the stars such as gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, There is nothing special about it, and there is nothing magical about a few stars. All the stars are just the natural activities of celestial bodies, and the stars are also companions of the sun, just like the moon is a companion of the earth.
Of course, Li Gefei looked back and thought , I felt even more excited.
Heliocentrism, gravity, these ideas were all thrown out[]
The mysterious veil of various astral movements is unveiled bit by bit, and what follows is an extremely mysterious and unknown world.
It’s much more interesting than Guanghan Palace, Chang’e, and Wu Gang
"Okay, let’s eat and drink. Pour the fine daughter’s wine I bought. Let’s all have a few drinks tonight."
Li Gefei was in a good mood and greeted his reluctant family members to come back to the table for dinner.
When he saw a letter from his son-in-law on the chair, Li Gefei saw a few lines of words and immediately felt disgusted.
Zhuzi, you don't understand, and you are talking nonsense!
Here in Liangshan, it is better than I don’t know where I went under the official rule of Zhao and Song Dynasties. Shuzi didn’t care at all and just wanted to be an official.
If it had been before, Li Gefei would have understood.
He was also a member of the officialdom.
It is not a bad thing to be keen on climbing up. , It is the behavior of a frustrated person to end his life wearing a Taoist robe. For example, his mentor Su Dongpo walked gracefully in the rain with mango shoes and bamboo sticks, chanting as he walked. When he entered the court as an official, he was about to become a high-ranking official. Su Dongpo always refused to accept the responsibility. Sometimes he would ask for external transfers after returning to the capital for a short period of time.
This was a rare move for officials in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Beijing officials They are more important and local officials are less important.
Unlike in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the governors and governors were given the title of Minister, and the officials in the border areas were also important ministers of the country. The capital officials in the
Song Dynasty were much more valuable than those in the Tang Dynasty, because the local officials The power is lighter.
Unlike in the Han and Tang Dynasties, the prefecture was the prefect, and the county was the county magistrate or county magistrate. The county magistrate in the Song Dynasty was called the magistrate, and sometimes even"quanzhi" was added, which meant temporary acting.
Official, position , dispatch, the most informal is the actual position, and the most despised.
If you have a little connections, you will definitely be appointed as a capital official. Once you go out, your official career will be temporarily cut off.
Su Dongpo invited himself to go out many times, and he had no interest in official career. He just wanted to live his life in a free and unrestrained foreign job.
Li Gefei was influenced by Su Dongpo in his later years. He was also calm and calm as a person, and he was quite free and easy as an official. His enthusiasm for his son-in-law was originally an indifferent attitude.
But the other party made such nonsense about Liangshan, which really made Li Gefei He was so disgusted that he immediately picked up the letter, rolled it into a ball, and threw it on the ground.
Li Qingzhao, who put down the astronomical mirror and entered the house with a look of reluctance, happened to see it. He was stunned at first, and then burst into laughter.
Dad usually looked at it with disbelief. He was silent, but he didn't expect that he had a bad temper secretly.
In the past, Li Qingzhao would have had to have a small temper with his father.
At this moment, he sighed slightly in his heart and moved his lips slightly, but he didn't say a word.
……
"Count!"
"one!"(Zhao Li's)
"two!"
"No meal?"
Brother Yun's handThe whip was like a long snake, whipping out in one quick motion.
Several New Army officers and soldiers who did not report the numbers loudly enough shrank.
But after the"pop" sound, Brother Yun withdrew his long whip and didn't touch anyone.
"I'm not the instructor who likes to hit people, but if I make the same mistake again, it will fall on each of you next time!"
"Come again!"
"Count!"
"one!"
"two!"
"three!"
A total of one hundred New Army soldiers shouted hoarse this time. Only then did
Brother Yun smile with satisfaction.
It was late spring, the weather was warm, and after nearly three months of recruiting troops after the new year, Liangshan soldiers and horses this time Directly more than forty are under command, more than 200,000 people.
The large-scale military training started half a month ago, and these recruits are already in shape.
Brother Yun came from the martial arts hall for internship, and Yue Fei came from Outstanding students graduated early, as did Wang Gui, Tang Huai, Zhang Xian, and Niu Gao.
They studied together in the village school since childhood, and their literary talents were not bad.
These few later all became generals at the command level. They were both civil and military. Prepared.
So they can graduate early, and Yue Fei is a special distinction, and the others are also rated as excellent.
Brother Yun is not good, he also has martial arts, but his archery is weak, his academic performance is average, and he is better than Yue Fei and others. Quite a difference.
He has to wait until next July to graduate and become a military attache.
But before that, he can already become a recruit instructor, and there will be more and more internships like this.
In fact, these entrance examinations are There is no young man in Wutang who is not one of the elites selected from ten thousand. Although these recruits are generally over 16 years old, their overall quality is far inferior to that of the younger Brother Yun...
