Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    By the time the matter of relocating various academies overseas was completed, it was already the end of July this year.

    The weather was hot, and Zhao Hao also felt a little tired, so he returned to Suzhou to spend the summer with his wife and children.

    However, in late August, he had to leave Suzhou again because Hua Cha, the 84-year-old first chairman of the group, was on his deathbed.

    Hua Cha waited patiently for Zhao Hao to arrive in Wuxi, held his hand, and used his last strength to urge: "For the sake of the new world, we must be ruthless. If we dare to cut off our body, we dare to pull the emperor down"

    After saying that, he passed away suddenly.

    Taishi Hua was in poor health more than ten years ago. Thanks to several miracle doctors at Jiangnan Hospital, he was able to live to the age of eighty-four. It was a 'happy loss'.

    What is happiness and mourning?  Good luck and longevity.  That is, full blessing, full life, and full death.  These three are indispensable:

    Quanfu, during his lifetime, the katydids in his family flourished, and the population prospered, forming a large family.  He is the head of a large family and is even respected as an ancestor.

    Full life, the deceased must be eighty or ninety years old, and at least must be over seventy years old.  The older and older you are, the more consistent it is.

    It¡¯s all over.  Also known as ¡®good death¡¯, it means a life that ends satisfactorily.  Folks believe that if the deceased accumulated good deeds and performed many meritorious deeds during his lifetime, he will not be tortured by illness at the end of his life, or even "die without illness" and die of old age naturally.  This is regarded as the fundamental condition for ¡®joy and mourning¡¯.

    Taishi Hua is not lacking any of these three things, so it is a true joy and mourning.  In this way, Hua Boxhen, Hua Zhongheng, Hua Shuyang and other children and grandchildren would not be too sad. After crying for three days, they held a banquet and buried Taishi Hua in a lively and glorious manner.

    This funeral was so beautiful that the whole Jiangnan was shocked.  Not only the top management of the group, but also the prominent figures in Jiangnan, ranging from Yingtian Governor Niu Moyi, Zhejiang Governor Jin Xuezeng, to the main halls of prefectures and counties in the Jiangnan Integration and Mutual Aid Association area, almost all of them rushed to Wuxi to send Hua Taishihua  The old chairman¡¯s final journey.

    For a time, Dongting Town was crowded with people, and the rivers were filled with official ships and passenger ships.

    On the day of the funeral, the funeral procession stretched for twenty miles, and the entire Dongting Town was covered with paper money, as if it had snowed.

    ??~~

    After the burial, Zhao Hao stayed at the house for another two days. First, he waited for the traffic to return to normal, and second, he was worried about his disciple's health.

    Historically, Hua Cha died in the second year of Wanli.  In the past year, Hua Shuyang also passed away young due to excessive grief during the mourning period.

    His health is not as good as his two brothers. He has lived for eight more years. Can Zhao Hao not be worried?

    But what is gratifying is that Hua Shuyang's physical condition is not bad. Maybe it is because he is not too sad at the funeral, or there are still too many mathematical topics waiting for him to solve. In short, Hua Shuyang did not waste time being sad and just sent him away.  After seeing the condolence guests, he plunged into the world of mathematics and had no time for him to care.

    Zhao Hao was a little embarrassed to leave his master alone and study mathematical problems on his own.

    But to be honest, Hua Shuyang's mathematical level has already surpassed him by a lot. The differential equations, functions of complex variables and other problems he studied can no longer be discussed with his teacher.

    Fortunately, Mr. Zhao has strong self-consistency and thinks this is a good thing. A person is better than a person who is good at it, and each generation becomes stronger than the previous generation.

    So two days later, Zhao Hao said goodbye and left with Wang Shizhen, Wang Shimao, Wang Xijue and others, and they were going to Taicang together.  It's better to be with liberal arts students, it's less stressful

    Speaking of which, Zhao Hao is not as familiar with Wang Shizhen as he is with the latter two.  However, Wang Shizhen was promoted as the leader of the Ming Dynasty literary circle, where literati looked down on each other. Obviously, it was not because of his first literary talent, but mainly because of his high emotional intelligence, good conduct, and excellent communication skills.  With friends all over the world and many people praising him, he became the leader of the literary world who had the right to speak in public opinion.

    The stinking circle culture has remained the same for thousands of years.

    ??And the relationship between the two families is there, and the two have been close friends for a long time. How many years has Wang Shizhen been an advocate for Jiangnan Group?  After spending ten days together in Dongting Town, they have already become brothers and have an irreversible friendship.

    However, Zhao Hao still resisted asking him, did you write "Jin Ping Mei"?

    Because this book was identified by Empress Dowager Li as the culprit who brought down Emperor Longqing, she ordered it to be banned, and ordered the Jin Yiwei to investigate the author and arrest him. I don¡¯t know how many Lanling Xiaoxiaoshengs have been arrested in these years.  Therefore, Mr. Zhao has no choice but to open and lift any pot.

    But the author of this most wonderful book of the Ming Dynasty is almost certainly him.

    In fact, many people know it, but it is just a taboo for the alliance leader.  After all, the leader of the literary circle is a pornographic writer, so if word spreads about it, it will be easy to say?It sounds nice

    However, at this time, the prefaces of various editions of "Jin Ping Mei" all read, "The Preface of a Giant Apartment in the Temple of the World."  Later, Shen Defu's "Wanli Yehuobian" said that this book was "written by a famous scholar during the Jiajing period".

    There were only a few famous people in Jiajing, among whom they were originally from Shandong and served as officials in Shandong.  Moreover, there was only one Wang Shizhen who believed in Buddhism, was lustful and drunk, and had the ability and time to write such a great novel.

    It is said that it is precisely because Yan Shifan's nickname is "East Tower" and he is in conflict with "Ximen", and his nickname "Qing'er" is a taboo name for high-ranking officials.  Only then did Wang Shizhen come up with the idea of ??recreating this story in "Water Margin" in order to resolve the revenge of killing his father.

    ??~~

    From Wuxi to Taicang, the boat takes a day.  But it's just a good time to drink and chat, and have a good time.

    As the boat sails on the river, the blue waves are rippling, and the endless mulberry fields on both sides of the bank are endless. Colorful wild flowers are dotted among them, and the houses with pink walls and black tiles are filled with smoke.

    "The beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River that I am used to seeing is clearly different from the past." Chef Wang, who has been playing at home for three years, rubbed his drunken eyes and said, "What is the difference?"

    "That's because there are fewer rice fields and more mulberry fields." Wang Shimao reminded him with a smile: "Nowadays, sericulture farms and silk reeling factories have been opened in villages and towns in the south of the Yangtze River, but the gap in mulberry leaves is too big, so 80% of the cultivated land  The rice has been changed into mulberry, so you can see the difference?"

    "Haha, I am a guilty person and don't dare to cause trouble for others, so I have been staying at home this year." Wang Xijue said plausibly.

    "You are a homebody." Zhao Hao laughed and scolded: "By the way, I heard that you also worship your daughter as your teacher? What did you say before leaving Beijing?"

    "Oh, I'm so ashamed." I thought that when I heard that my daughter was pretending to be a ghost and took Wang Shizhen as her disciple, I actually laughed at Alliance Leader Wang.  Wang Xijue's face turned red and he said: "After returning home, I wanted to persuade my daughter to return from her lost way, but after several conversations with the immortal master, I found that I was too ignorant. The immortal master just borrowed my daughter's body to come into the world, so what do I have?  Who am I qualified to teach her as a father? So I followed my senior brother and became a disciple of the Immortal Master."

    "It's not just Yuan Yu, but also Tu Changqing, Xu Wenchang, Wang Boyu" Wang Shizhen was a little drunk at first, leaning on the wall of the ship and nodding. When he heard this, he immediately became energetic and reported a long list of names.  They are all his fellow disciples.

    Mr. Zhao was dumbfounded when he heard this. Wang Xijue, Wang Shizhen, Tu Long, Wang Baigu, Zhao Yongxian, Qu Ruji, Feng Mengzhen, Shen Maoxue, Wang Daokun, Chen Jiru, Xu Wei these names are all shining brightly in history, but they all worship Wang Xijue's daughter.  Under the door.

    Moreover, according to Wang Shizhen, Tan Yangzi's founding disciple, there are currently as many as a hundred disciples in the same discipline. These people are either rural Jinshi, scholar mountain people, or Niezi Yuliu. They almost include the political and literary circles in Jiangnan.  and religious circles.

    Of course, what Wang Shizhen is most proud of is the development of Wang Xijue's entry.  Allowing a father to worship his daughter as his disciple is the most convincing propaganda for an immortal master.

    After a while, Zhao Hao closed his mouth, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but glance at Wang Shimao.

    "Don't look at me, I didn't join." Wang Shimao said in a dull voice: "The senior management of the group must believe in science. As a director, I can set an example."

    Zhao Hao just wanted to say, ¡®This is pretty much it¡­¡¯ but then Wang Shimao changed the subject and said:

    ¡°But I made an agreement with my eldest brother that he will leave a place for me first and then I can join after I resign next term.¡±

    ¡®Pfft¡­¡¯ Mr. Zhao almost spat blood on his face.  "The position of director of the dignified Jiangnan Group is not as attractive as being Tan Yangzi's apprentice?"

    "Of course!" the three of them replied in unison.

    "My day" Zhao Hao almost lost his breath.

    "Brother, don't be angry," Wang Shizhen smiled and poured him another glass of wine: "The position of director of Jiangnan Group is definitely the most prominent in the world. But what if the founding Duke is hereditary and irreplaceable? That is just a game for ordinary people."

    "And you can become an immortal by worshiping an immortal master!" Wang Xijue also gave Zhao Hao a piece of boiled dried silk and said, "Would you like to consider becoming an immortal master, so that together we can enjoy immortal blessings and live as long as heaven?"

    "We are still companions in the world of mortals, let's live a carefree life." Zhao Hao rolled his eyes and thanked Bumin.

    "Don't say it so early, or else you'll be slapped in the face like me. How embarrassing will it be?" Wang Xijue smiled and said, "You refuse now because you don't understand. When you understand, you should change your mind"

    "You tell me." Zhao Hao nodded, dumbfounded.

    "Have you heard of Longsha's prophecy?" Wang Shizhen said mysteriously.

    Of course Zhao Hao has heard of it.  No matter where he is in these years, on the first, eleventh, and twenty-first of each month, the Security Office will submit a "Jiangnan Intelligence Summary", detailing the latest developments in the Jiangnan region in the past ten days, including official news, hot public opinion issues, and people's livelihood issues.  .

    In addition, there are "Intelligence Summary of the Capital", "Information Summary of the Southeast", "Information Summary of Other Provinces", and "Nanyang Intelligence Summary" to help him keep abreast of the latest developments in the entire group across the country.

    He has seen the entry 'Longsha Prophecy' more than once in the "Intelligence Summary" in different regions. The General Affairs Section of the Security Department has even made a special topic to introduce the ins and outs of this thing.

    Of course Mr. Zhao still pretended not to know, shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of it."
