Liu Song Hanque

Chapter 104
On the banks of the Qinhuai River, at the entrance of Wuyi Alley.

Aristocratic families all gather here.

This place has witnessed the rise and fall of too many families, but there are also families that have survived here.

Thank you.

At this time, Xie Lingyun was fascinated by an ink painting.

"This painting of landscape and artistic conception is really good, Gu Kaizhi deserves the title of "excellent painting"."

Xie Lingyun was appreciating Gu Kaizhi's paintings at this time, and inspiration came to his heart at this time, and he immediately wrote a poem.

The pen is like a dragon and a snake, which is not inferior to any calligrapher in the world. The running script is so vivid on the paper.

"The painting is perfect, the poetry is perfect, and the writing is perfect."

"That's how it's considered a masterpiece!"

Xie Lingyun inherited the title of his grandfather Xie Xuan and was named Duke Kangle.

Now that he is in his thirties, the arrogance in his chest has reached its peak, and he only admires Gu Kaizhi's masterpieces, not to mention being in awe.

"Mr. Kang Le!"

Just after Xie Lingyun finished writing the poem, a middle-aged scholar who was also crazy came to look for Xie Lingyun.

This person is Yan Yanzhi who is called "Yan Xie" together with Xie Lingyun.

His family background is not as prominent as that of Xie Lingyun, but because he and Xie Lingyun both like landscape poetry, they are considered close friends.No one stopped him from looking for Xie Lingyun.

"Brother Yannian (Yan Yanzhi's nickname), why are you free to come to my place today?"

Xie Lingyun was in a good mood at the moment, and naturally wanted to show off when seeing friends visiting.

"Come, come, brother Yannian, how about I write this poem? Is it worthy of Gu Kaizhi's painting?"

Yan Yanzhi was also a poet who was proficient in landscape poetry, so he naturally saw that the poems written by Xie Lingyun were of the highest grade.

"Nice poem!"

But today Yan Yanzhi didn't continue to appreciate his poems with Xie Lingyun as in the past, instead he said mysteriously: "Did Mr. Kang Le know that Mr. Chang'an has returned to Beijing?"

"Naturally know."

Xie Lingyun is not a political idiot either.

Depending on his identity, the troubles of the court could not be hidden from him as long as they were not too confidential.

"Does Mr. Kangle know that Mr. Chang'an will write poems soon?"

"Oh?"

Xie Lingyun is interested in this meeting.

"He Shi?"

Yan Yanzhi immediately told Xie Lingyun the poems that had been handed down from the school.

After hearing this, Xie Lingyun frowned.

"Crazy!"

"Only the sky is above, so only the sky is above!"

Xie Lingyun seemed to smell a meaty cat, and felt eager to try it.

"Before I heard my cousin Xie Hui say that Duke Chang'an dared to go to the court of the Huns alone in his teens, I always thought it was a joke, but how could someone who can write such a poem be a treasure?"

Xie Lingyun felt itchy.

In fact, he is not only interested in poetry, but also has plans for Liu Yizhen himself.

It's not about Liu Yizhen's body, but Liu Yizhen's status.

Xie Lingyun had already gotten some rumors from his cousin Xie Hui.

Liu Yu is now going to change the day for another day.

At this time, recalling Liu Yizhen to Jiankang obviously meant reuse.

Although Xie Lingyun has a prominent status and a high status, his official position is also a high-ranking official like the servant of the Huangmen.

But for some reason, no one has promoted him to really participate in political affairs.

Seeing that his cousin Xie Hui has now climbed to the position of prime minister, Xie Lingyun has always felt uncomfortable.

Since ancient times, the highest ideal of literati has been to rule the country and bring peace to the world.

Although Xie Lingyun's literary talent has long been known to everyone, but only he himself knows that he still wants to show his brilliance on a bigger stage!

"It's better to visit the Duke of Chang'an in the name of discussing poetry!"

It is false to discuss poetry, but it is true to seek officials.

Xie Lingyun has a kind of self-confidence.

I think my talent in literature must be the same as my talent in politics!It's just that the superiors are all blind!

Now there is only one opportunity missing!
And right now Liu Yizhen is a springboard for him.

"Then Mr. Chang'an can still refuse himself?"

Xie Lingyun is not only confident in his talent, but also in his family background.

May I ask how many people in the world can say no to the Chen Jun Xie family?
Neither can Liu Yu!
Xie Lingyun was used to doing whatever he wanted, and immediately decided to take Yan Yanzhi to find Liu Yizhen.

But halfway there they found out...

Liu Yi really lived with Liu Yu!

It's really no problem to find Liu Yi casually.

But if he was casual with Liu Yu, he would not be able to borrow Xie Lingyun's guts.

Helpless, Xie Lingyun had no choice but to write a letter of greeting and forward it to the Song Guogong Mansion, asking Liu Yizhen to meet at a restaurant beside the Huai River (Qinhuai River) at night.

When Liu Yizhen returned to Song Guogong's mansion from Liu Yuna, he saw two women sitting together.

Sun, Guo.

Liu Yizhen, who hadn't been shy when facing a group of high-ranking court officials just now, began to follow his heart.

As soon as the soles of his feet slipped, Liu Yizhen was about to run outside.

"Mr. Chang'an, I just received an invitation from you."

"Oh? Bring it to me to see!"

No matter who it is, Liu Yizhen just wants to escape from here now.

After taking the invitation card, the elegant font on it made him startled.

"Xie Lingyun?"

Liu Yizhen revealed a strange expression.

Xie Lingyun's great reputation is naturally like thunder.

In history, Liu Yizhen and Xie Lingyun were good friends, and they often traveled together.

But now the two of them hardly have any intersection, why would he suddenly invite himself?

However, Liu Yizhen didn't want to fall into the Shura field at home anyway, so it's not a bad idea to meet this great talent with a long history.

not to mention……

His surname is Xie!

Liu Yizhen didn't change his clothes either, and asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the agreed restaurant.

Celebrities in the Southern Dynasties were very romantic.

This entertainment venue is naturally far superior to the previous dynasty.

Because it was approaching evening, what Jiankang and Liu Yizhen saw in the morning was different.

Fire trees and silver flowers, heavy traffic.

The business of the shops in the various squares along the street was booming, and the crowd gathered together, applauding endlessly.

The adults sat around and played Liubo, while the children played chess.

In this way, it can be called a piece of peace.

"Mr. Chang'an, we're here!"

The carriage arrived at the restaurant, Liu Yizhen got out of the carriage, and there was a restaurant with three floors in front of him.

"Shanshui Pavilion?"

The corner of Liu Yizhen's mouth twitched when he saw the name of the restaurant.

He probably guessed whose property it was.

The waiter at the entrance of the restaurant saw that Liu Yi was really coming in a carriage, and his clothes looked extraordinary, so he naturally knew that he was a distinguished guest, so he hurriedly greeted him: "May I ask if you have an appointment?"

Liu Yizhen took out Xie Lingyun's invitation card, and the waiter smiled even more after seeing it: "So it's a distinguished guest of Kangle Gong! Please come inside!"

The waiter brought Liu Yizhen to the third floor, which was a bit empty, except for one compartment that was brightly lit, and there were faint sounds of playfulness inside.

The waiter knocked on the door of the compartment with the invitation, and the people inside came out after a while.

"Mr. Chang'an! You are welcome! You are welcome! Xie will pay you!"

The one who came out was naturally Xie Lingyun.

It's just that now Xie Lingyun smells of alcohol all over his body, his cheeks are rosy, and he looks a little hot.

"It's okay."

Liu Yizhen didn't care either.

Talented people have more or less bad habits.

Hundreds of years later, there is another man named Li Bai who is more capable than Xie Lingyun, so it is better to be tolerant of them.

Xie Lingyun personally took Liu Yizhen into the compartment, but the decadent scene inside made Liu Yizhen feel a little uncomfortable.

Besides Xie Lingyun, there was another man there.

In addition, there were four or five women with disheveled clothes and blurred eyes.

"Mr. Chang'an, this is Yan Yanzhi!"

Well!Another good friend of mine in history!
At this time, Yan Yanzhi was obviously a little drunk, and even struggled to stand up, so Zhan Zhanwei had no choice but to salute Liu Yizhen.

"Since it's a private banquet, it's not like sticking to etiquette."

Liu Yizhen originally wanted to give the other party a step down, but who knows that these words are quite suitable for Xie and Yan.

"It seems that Lord Chang'an is also a wonderful person!"

Liu Yizhen showed an awkward yet polite smile and asked Xie Lingyun: "I don't know what the so-called Kangle Gong suddenly invited me to a banquet?"

Xie Lingyun didn't know if he was misled by Liu Yizhen's previous words, thinking that Liu Yizhen was also a romantic son, but now he was a little more unrestrained: "Chang'an Lord just call me for luck, don't be so restrained!"

"Okay, Kang Le...Lucky."

Xie Lingyun poured a glass of sake for Liu Yizhen: "Actually, it's not an important matter. It's just that I heard a poem with a very different style written by Mr. Chang'an, so I sent an invitation to Mr. Chang'an because of my desire to seek novelty!"

"poetry?"

Liu Yizhen immediately thought of the poem he wrote for Xiao Fuyang.

What's the matter with this girl?

The poem written in the morning reached Xie Lingyun's ears in the afternoon?
What the hell did she do in school...

But now is not the time to pursue Xiao Fuyang's responsibility. Seeing that Xie Lingyun is sure that Liu Yizhen wrote the poem, there is obviously no need to refuse.

"It turns out that's the case. I'm not going to hide it. That poem was indeed written in Guanzhong when I was on Huashan Mountain."

Xie Lingyun's eyes lit up when he heard the word Huashan.

"Xie has liked to visit mountains and rivers since he was a child. I have visited all the famous mountains in Jiangzuo, but I have no chance to visit this famous mountain in the north."

"May I ask Mr. Chang'an how the scenery of Mount Hua is?"

Liu Yizhen replied: "Naturally, it is extremely dangerous. It is difficult for a sparrow to climb, and it is difficult for an ape to climb!"

Xie Lingyun showed a yearning expression.

"Huashan, Taishan, these famous mountains, Xie has never set foot on them, and he still claims to be a famous man of mountains and rivers. It's really not worthy of the name."

Liu Yizhen couldn't help being a little funny seeing Xie Lingyun feel sorry for himself just because he hadn't seen the mountains and rivers in the north.

But he still comforted him and said: "The great rivers and mountains are there, and it doesn't seem to be fleeting like rain and fog. Now that Guanzhong has settled down, if Gongyi wants to visit the mountains and rivers, he can naturally go to see it first. Taishan is located in Qingzhou. Now It’s not very safe. But one day the imperial court will expel Suoru, not to mention Mount Tai, even the famous mountain of Hebei, Gongyi, can be visited!”

Xie Lingyun also said yes again and again, and in the blink of an eye, he drank a few more glasses of fine wine.

"Duke Chang'an said well, one day the imperial court will expel Suolu."

It's just that after saying this, Xie Lingyun actually burst into tears.

Seeing this, Liu Yizhen hurriedly asked, "Why is Lingyun suddenly sad?"

Xie Lingyun said with tears: "I just lament that Gongyi is just a literati who knows how to dance and write, and he can't serve the country like Chang'an Gong!"

"Spiritual luck is serious!"

Liu Yizhen already vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

At this time, Yan Yanzhi also came out to tell Liu Yizhen his bitterness: "Mr. Chang'an doesn't know! Although Mr. Kangle is in a high position now, he has been wasting his time and has no place to display his talents. He is really aggrieved!"

okay!

As soon as Liu Yizhen said this, he realized what they were going to do!

Ask an official!
but……

Looking at these two masters in the history of literature, Liu Yi ran over ten thousand alpacas in his heart.

How dare you two!
You came to beg the official to drink drunk, and even accompanied by beautiful women, so who cares about putting you in an important position?

Moreover, Xie Lingyun's political ability is notoriously bad, and his mouth is broken.

You must know that after Liu Yilong became the emperor, he would have absolutely nothing to say to Liu Yizhen and his friends.

Xie Lingyun even achieved the position of "servant" during Liu Yilong's reign.

But Liu Yilong knew that Xie Lingyun's ability was limited and he was not allowed to participate in political affairs, so he slandered Liu Yilong and the ministers of the DPRK and China everywhere.

In the end, he would disappear at every turn, leaving the mess for others to deal with.He even pretended to be public servants and let court officials act as his personal servants.

In the end, Liu Yilong, who has been creating the "benevolent king" character set, executed Xie Lingyun for the crime of "treason" regardless of the criticism from all over the world.

If this kind of person really becomes an official, it will be a disaster!
Liu Yilong doesn't even want him, can Liu Yi really want it?
But it's not right to say no in person.

Not to mention Xie Lingyun's status in the literary world, just because of his surname "Xie", Liu Yizhen also wanted to give face.

Liu Yizhen pretended to be sorry.

"It's a pity that such a talent as Lingyun is not reused!"

Xie Lingyun and Yan Yanzhi's slightly drunken eyes instantly became clear, and they pricked up their ears to hear what Liu Yizhen would say next.

"It's just that I just came back from Guanzhong, and Song Guogong asked me to be in charge of Hu Xiarouran's envoy. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you two."

Liu Yizhen used scolding Ali and the others as a shield, but this did not stop the two of them at all.

"Duke Chang'an's words are wrong! Duke Chang'an's achievements in Guanzhong are obvious to all. How could the court leave Duke Chang'an idle?"

Liu Yizhen had no choice but to decline again: "After all, Lingyun is an important minister of the court. Even if I am granted an official position by the court, I can't compare with justice. How can I give justice a chance to flex his muscles?"

"But since the spirit luck has been mentioned, then I will go back and say a few words in front of Song Guogong, maybe I can help the spirit luck!"

Liu Yizhen used Liu Yu as a shield again, but everyone knew that Liu Yu knew it clearly.

Even Xie Lingyun's current situation was at Liu Yu's behest.

This is also Liu Yu's usual tactic against the aristocratic family.

It is to give you a noble official position. If you want to cultivate immortality, you can cultivate immortality, and if you want to travel, you can travel.

In fact, this set is very useful for most families.

They have social status, but they don’t have a job, and they still have money!How happy!
It can only be said that Xie Lingyun is really an outlier. As a family, he actually wants to be an official.

If you want to be an official, it's fine, just return the food!
Anyone who meets this kind of person will have a headache.

In desperation, Liu Yizhen could only write a blank check——

"If I can really do what Lingyun said, I will definitely come to ask justice for help!"

Xie Lingyun finally heard what he wanted to hear, and immediately laughed.

"Okay, okay! Mr. Chang'an has made a deal! You guys go and accompany Mr. Chang'an!"

In the blink of an eye, the banquet became cheerful again.
