Under the guidance of Taoist Xiaoyao, several people came to Shanyang and saw a small manor standing in a small dam surrounded by mountains on three sides. The manor is not big, with about a dozen rooms inside the white walls. There is a plaque hanging on the front door with the four characters "Nanshan Academy" written on it.
When Wang Shouyu saw this, he nodded and praised: "Staying away from the busy city and studying in a house is indeed a Confucian style. You should be a member of the same Taoism." He then said to Chunfeng and Guanyun: "You two can't make mistakes. Let's be more respectful. If this fellow Taoist goes to the capital, it will be considered as an errand."
Taoist Chunfeng straightened his clothes and agreed, while Guan Yun said with a smile, "Don't worry, Taoist Brother Xi, we have always been very respectful to talents."
When he came closer, Taoist Xiaoyao stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Is Fellow Taoist Meng here?"
The courtyard door opened in response, and Meng Yanzhen, dressed in gray scholar's uniform, went out to greet him: "I got up early this morning and suddenly heard the birds chirping on the branches, but it turned out that it was Taoist Fellow Lin who was here. After not seeing each other for many years, Taoist Fellow Lin came to the door. What a blessing. ¡Who are these?¡±
Taoist Xiaoyao hurriedly introduced: "Fellow Daoist Meng, I have now entered the Shangsan Palace. This is Daoist Brother Wang who is enshrined in Chaotian Palace. His name is Changzhi. These two are enshrined in Lingji Palace, Taoist Master Chunfeng and Taoist Guanyun."
Meng Yanzhen hurriedly saluted: "You are so honored to be here. It's so radiant. Please come in quickly."
After entering the academy, they cooked tea and entertained guests in the thatched cottage. Meng Yanzhen said, "May I ask why you are here?"
Wang Shouyu said: "I have heard about the name of Taoist friend Meng for a long time. He lived in a remote area in western Sichuan, traveled in forests and springs, and devoted himself to studying the books of sages. He is a talented person who can help the world. Nowadays, the trend of monks entering the world is increasing in our country. Jian Jiguan issued an edict to select monks to serve as Taoists. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Meng has ever heard of the position of abbot?"
Meng Yanzhen nodded: "Although I am in the wilderness of the countryside, I still have to hear about this matter. For example, in our Sichuan Province, every state has monks serving as Taoist abbots, and several of my acquaintances have also gone down the mountain to join the world. This is an excellent strategy. , can bring benefits to the people, and in the long run, with the monk's ability, many of the people's emergencies can be solved."
Wang Shouyu smiled and said: "Young Taoist Meng stays at home, but he knows the affairs of the world. He is indeed an expert. To be honest, the Taoist sect has changed and the world has been shaken. As an important party in the Ming Dynasty's spiritual practice, I, Shang Sangong, am not willing to lag behind. We are working hard to participate. Now we have obtained the abbotship of seven counties in Nanzhili and Henan, and there will be more next year. This can be regarded as doing our best for the people of the world and contributing to the prosperity of our Confucian sect. "
Meng Yan really praised: "The Shangsangong is willing to do good for the world, which is great kindness!"
Wang Shouyu said: "That's right. I came here today just to invite fellow Taoist Meng to come out."
Does Meng Yan really mean this: "ThisI only read books about sages and have never thought about others."
Wang Shouyu advised: "It is a pity that Taoist friend Meng has the talent to live in the mountains and forests. Solving the problems of the people and sharing the worries of the emperor, isn't this what we Confucian believers are good at? Without this ambition of taking the world as our own responsibility, what is the point of talking about? Reading? What¡¯s the use of reading?¡±
Meng Yanzhen politely declined several times, and Wang Shouyu solemnly said: "Fellow Daoist Meng, now is the time for the country to employ people, and the government is controlled by traitorous parties. The emperor's decrees cannot leave the capital. How can you, Taoist friend, just watch the people suffer and the emperor be dusted?" What?"
Taoist Xiaoyao stamped his feet and said, "If fellow Taoist Meng doesn't come out, what will happen to the world?"
Meng Yanzhen was shocked and moved. He stood up and bowed: "If a few people hadn't told me, Meng would have almost made a big mistake! Forget it, I will just follow you to the capital!"
Everyone was overjoyed and immediately became enthusiastic. Wang Shouyu immediately introduced to Meng Yanzhen the counties where Shangsangong had taken the post of Taoist abbot, and asked Meng Yanzhen to choose. Meng Yanzhen chose Baobaoyuan in Liyang County, Nanzhili Province, and was willing to serve as the abbot of Baobaoyuan.
Everyone talked for a long time about various matters surrounding the future entry into the Shangsan Palace. Wang Shouyu said that after entering the Chaotian Palace, he would rely on his spiritual consciousness to help Meng Yanzhen. When he enters the realm of the Great Master, he will do it in the Chaotian Palace. He teaches.
It was getting late, Meng Yan was really in a good mood, and said, "I invite you all to stay here for dinner." So he returned to the back garden, and not long after, a beautiful woman came up with a portable food box and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoists, please stay here for dinner." , this is my concubine Wan Niang, who is very good at cooking. Please try Wan Niang¡¯s craftsmanship.¡±
The food box is opened, the dishes are taken out one by one, and the aroma is immediately fragrant on the table. Wan Niang introduced softly: "This is the green crispy duck, this is the fried golden frog, this is the emerald jade beans, this is the fragrant bamboo leaf fish"
??Chunfeng and Guanyun both looked straight, but what they were looking at was not the food, but Wan Niang. I just feel that Wan Niang's figure is curvy, round but graceful, slim but plump, her face is even more beautiful, and her every smile and every move is full of seductive temptation.
"Compared with Wan Niang, the four great courtesans in Changle House are not worth mentioning at all. To describe them as beautiful as plum blossoms and willows is too much!
No?Chunfeng and Guanyun, Wang Shouyu and Taoist Xiaoyao also stared at Wan Niang in a daze, and there was a sound of heavy breathing in the thatched cottage.
Meng Yanzhen stretched out his hand to invite him: "Would you like to eat?"
"Okay, okay" Wang Shouyu, who had come back to his senses, quickly called Chunfeng and others to eat. Then everyone picked up their chopsticks and put the rice into their mouths while staring at Wan Niang's leaving figure. I don¡¯t know the taste of my food.
Taoist Xiaoyao asked: "Meng Dao is so friendly and blessed, may I ask whose wife this is?"
Meng Yanzhen said proudly: "I went to Qingyun Hall to visit Taoist friends last month. When I returned, I saw a boat capsized on the Fu River, so I went to rescue people and just in time rescued Wan Niang. Wan Niang's parents died early, and her life experience I was lonely, grateful for Meng's kindness in saving me, and was willing to repay me with my life, so I took her as my concubine."
Wang Shouyu sighed: "Such a strange fate is simplycongratulations to Fellow Daoist Meng. Fellow Daoist Meng is truly a blessing that has been cultivated for three lifetimes!"
Meng Yanzhen laughed: "Wan Niang is also good at the pipa. After the meal is over, I will let her play a piece of music to help her enjoy herself!"
"Very good, very good!"
"Quickly play it!"
"Fellow Daoist Meng, what else are you going to eat? Let's listen to the music first?"
Meng Yan really laughed, so he asked Wan Niang to take the pipa out and play the music in the thatched cottage, thinking it would be a good accompaniment to the meal.
If it was true as Meng Yanzhen said, Wan Niang played the pipa extremely well, Meng Yanzhen shook her head and closed her eyes, immersed in it. Wang Shouyu and others were also immersed in it, but they were not immersed in the tune, but in the Pythagorean. Everyone watching the clouds was dripping with tears, but my family didn't notice it at all.
Late at night, Meng Yanzhen arranged for Wang Shouyu and others to stay overnight, each in a guest room.
Guanyun couldn't sleep anywhere. When he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with Wan Niang's pretty figure and charming appearance. He was really tossing and turning, no matter how uncomfortable he lay down.
