Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The most prosperous cities in Jiangnan are naturally Jinling and Suzhou.

    The next most popular cities are Huating, Wuxi, Zhenjiang and Hangzhou.

    The population of Huating County is only half that of Hangzhou City, but its prosperity is no less prosperous than that of Hangzhou. You can imagine its wealth and aristocratic reputation.

    The most prosperous section of Huating and even Songjiang is the ten-mile long street starting from Huayang Bridge in the east and ending at Kuantang Bridge in the west.

    The long street is lined with eaves, thousands of tiles and roofs, horses and carriages, full of guests, three thousand green sleeves, and feasting.

    The water alley is dazzling with dazzling lights and rows of painted boats.  Boats carrying prostitutes flow among the green waves and Zhuge Pavilions. It is really called "the paradise of the world is in the south of the Yangtze River".

    On a two-story boat with carved jade railings and light gauze curtains, two female actors were singing the "Dragon Boat Festival Transformation into a Snake" section of "The Legend of White Snake" accompaniment by the band team.

    I just listened to Xiaoqing singing: "Although the weather conditions are good during the Dragon Boat Festival, I will kill people for leaving and staying. Just because I was poor in cultivation at that time, I was most frightened at noon"

    In front of the stage, there are three short nanmu tables painted with gold, and delicious delicacies are arranged.

    Xu Fan is in the front position, and Xu Ying is accompanying him on the right.  The shorter one on the right was sitting behind Su Song, who was left in Songjiang by Lin Run and continued to clear his parents-in-law.

    At this time, Zheng Yuanshao was surrounded by a charming female Shi, who was trying her best to please and tease him.

    Zheng Yuanshao seemed to be entangled by two beautiful snakes, and the back of his head felt cold.

    It¡¯s not his Taoism, nor is it that the two female historians are unsightly, it¡¯s really a banquet that makes people feel like they¡¯re sitting on pins and needles!

    Xu Ying kneaded the soft and boneless female Shi in her arms and played with it for a while. She smiled at her elder brother and said, "I think Zheng Zhuan is about the same as Xiaoqing during the Dragon Boat Festival. I'm so frightened."

    "Don't talk nonsense." Xu Fan couldn't let go in front of his younger brother. He only held the female history's little hand and didn't let go.  "Here, let me pour a glass of realgar wine for the observer to see if you can show your true colors."

    "Haha, you two wise brothers are really funny." Zheng Yuanshao's heart trembled when he heard this.

    The female historian next to him kept wiping his sweat, and she secretly had a suspicion in her heart. This Zheng Kuan was either guilty of heart or kidney deficiency

    On the stage, Lady White comforted Xiao Qing and said, "Qing'er, stop complaining and go back to Emei. You and I will be separated for the time being to avoid being investigated."

    Xiao Qing reluctantly held White Snake¡¯s hand: ¡°What¡¯s wrong with my sister?¡±

    The White Snake sang tenderly: "Let's be careful to accompany him here, so as to avoid suspicion for the couple"

    ??~~

    Under the stage, Xu Ying smiled and said: "What a good white lady, it's a pity that Fa Hai doesn't understand love."

    "Yes, it's quite hateful." Zheng Yuanshao said hurriedly.

    "Speaking of which, our Lin Zhongcheng looks so damn similar to Fahai." Xu Ying sneered and said, "He has a stupid head and insists on going his own way, and he will harm others and himself in the end!"

    ¡°¡­¡± Now Zheng Yuanshao didn¡¯t dare to answer.

    "Okay, how many years does it take for a freak like that to appear?" Xu Fan waved his hand and took over the conversation: "Of course we normal people can't understand it. Isn't that right, Zheng Zhuan?"

    "Haha, ah, Zhongcheng is so proud and so proud that ordinary people like us are really beyond his reach" Zheng Yuanshao laughed dryly.

    "Right, so we can't be like him." Xu Fan stretched out his arms and poured him a glass of wine with some difficulty:

    "He is a genuine Jinshi. He is a popular person in the eyes of the emperor. He can become a minister, general or prime minister if he does his job well. What about you, Zheng Zhuan? He was born in a prominent position as a juren. He has worked hard in officialdom for twenty years. How can he become a high-ranking minister?"  The fourth level is already at its peak."

    "That's right, further up is the minister, governor, and inspector. Do you think that group of non-commissioned officers can tolerate an official sitting sideways among them?" Xu Ying also agreed:

    "If you can't see others, how can you not see Hai Rui? With such a great reputation, he is known as the most upright official in the world, but he is still stuck in the fourth rank, and he is just having a free meal at the General Affairs Department of Nanjing. It is worse than observing you."

    "Alas" Zheng Yuanshao was said to be the centerpiece.  This is not the case in Ming Dynasty officialdom.  No matter how powerful you are, your family background will never be as good as a Jinshi.

    He then smiled bitterly and said, "Have you ever had such extravagant hopes, sir? Being able to become a soldier is like a dream. I am content with this life."

    "Isn't that right? Since you are satisfied with your official career, why do you still want to follow Lin's path until you get nowhere?" Xu Ying said, took out a meeting ticket from her sleeve, and gently pressed it with her fingers.  With a dusting, it bounced in front of Zheng Yuanshao.

    "What does this mean?" Zheng Yuanshao's pupils shrank, and he was shocked by the amount above.

    One thousand taels of silver.

    "Being an official for thousands of miles is just for money. In the future, you should get closer to our brothers." Xu Ying then smiled and said, "I guarantee you."Earn enough money for three lifetimes in three years.  "

    "Third brother, don't say so tacky." Xu Fan pretended to scold Xu Ying, and smiled at Zheng Yuanshao: "Old Zheng, we hit it off as brothers, so I will tell you straight. Something big happened in Suzhou.  Lin Zhongcheng will not be the governor for long."

    "What?!" Zheng Yuanshao trembled and said with a pale face: "What does that have to do with Zhongcheng? The court will not be so hasty!"

    "You have been working as a local official, so it's not surprising that the governor is better than Datian." Xu Fan chuckled and said, "But in the entire Ming Dynasty, third-rank officials were nothing. Changing the governor was not a big deal, as long as the science  It only takes a few bullets to succeed."

    "This" Zheng Yuanshao's throat kept shaking, and he was so filled with fear that he couldn't breathe.

    ??~~

    On the stage, the scene has been played to the point where the White Lady drank realgar wine and fell into the sea of ??Fahai.

    Just listen to the monk chanting: "Why do you need to find leisure and sorrow in life? A white cloud goes away. The sea of ??suffering will end sometimes, and the rivers will never end!"

    Under the stage, the Xu brothers also finished their coercion and inducement.

    "Zheng Zhuan, tell me. Should you follow the path of Lin until you reach the dark side, or should you turn around and find the shore in the boundless sea of ??suffering?"

    "" Zheng Yuanshao lowered his head and struggled for a long time. After a long time, he raised his head and said tremblingly with red eyes: "I'm sorry, you two. Zhongcheng has been kind to me, and I can't let him down."

    With that said, he broke away from the entanglement of the two beauties, stood up and said, "It's getting late. Thank you for the hospitality. Let's dock the boat."

    "Haha, it's really a penalty for not eating the toast." Xu Ying sneered.

    "Observe, why did you drink the wine in the glass?" Xu Fan was not annoyed, he picked up the wine glass and said: "It's a good time to get together and go away."

    "Okay." Zheng Yuanshao nodded, bent down to take the wine glass offered by the female historian, raised his head and wanted to drink it down, but couldn't help but squirted half of the glass.

    "What kind of wine is this?"

    "Didn't I say it, realgar wine?" Xu Fan said with a smile: "Drinking realgar wine, all demons and ghosts will behave in their own way."

    "This kind of joke is not funny at all!" Zheng Yuanshao's robe was stained by wine, and he rolled his sleeves unhappily and tried to leave.

    Xu Fan, however, was minding his own business. He smiled faintly at Zheng Yuanshao, who was about to walk out of the cabin, and said, "Isn't that right, Zheng Yuanzhao?"

    Zheng Yuanshao felt as if he had been struck by lightning, sweating like liquid, and his feet immediately dared not take another step out.

    On the stage, the actor sang "Thousand Years Old":

    "Hugh be naughty, the snake demon has taken a dark form, these are all gentle feelings in dreams and mirrors.

    "When your time is over, when your time is over, you will be in the belly of the white snake, and you will believe that the prosperity has become empty, and you have awakened from the dream of the mortal world"

    Xu Xian shouted in horror: "Old Zen Master, save me!"
