Chapter 29: Auspicious birthday ceremony

Song Ai Si returned to the hall in a blink of an eye. At the end of the song, the people dispersed. Only a table of wine was left in the hall. The small window of the hall was pushed open, and the wind blew in, blowing the breath of the kitchen waste clean.

County Magistrate Zhu stood in front of the windowsill, his eyes falling to the lights outside the window, and his eyes became light and dark as the flames appeared.

Song Aishi came in carefully and said, "Ming Gong, it's time to go and rest earlier."

"Oh." County Magistrate Zhu only responded lightly.

The hall fell into silence again.

Song Ai Si hung the lantern on the lamp stand, and County Magistrate Zhu suddenly said, "What do you think... what about Chen Kaizhi?"

Song Aishi was stunned for a moment. He never expected that Chen Kaizhi gave Ming Gong such a big impression. After thinking about it, Song Aishi thoughtfully said: "He is still loyal and honest, and he has talent and knowledge, and he doesn't look like a traitor."

"Yes." County Magistrate Zhu just smiled. He looked back at Song Aishi, his eyes even more intriguing: "His poem about Goddess of Luo River is also amazing."

"It is rare for Ming Gong to appreciate him, this is his blessing."

County Magistrate Zhu shook his head and said, "No, I don't mean that. Old Song, have you forgotten that the Queen Mother's birthday party is getting closer and closer."

Song Aisi was shocked and suddenly realized something. The current empress dowager was only thirty years old. The late emperor passed away, but he did not leave a prince. Therefore, the son of other vassal kings in the royal family succeeded the throne. Therefore, the emperor was only three years old, but the empress dowager was in charge of the great power, and he said nothing.

Now that the Empress Dowager's birthday is approaching, the officials of the Tianxia Prefecture have long since turned white, hoping to invite favors when they see the opportunity.

Jiangning is a county in Jing, and the status of the magistrate of Zhu County is not low. He also prepared the birthday gift early, and spent a lot of effort.

But now...

County Magistrate Zhu continued: "This county has been thinking that if we only give away longevity peaches and colorful clothes weaved by Jiangning, we always feel that it is still lacking some heat. You know, my mentor has also had hints when he came to write books in Beijing, so... what do you think of the poem "The Goddess of Luo River?"

Song Aisi said very carefully: "Ming Gong, the student is stupid and cannot understand."

County Magistrate Zhu slowly walked back to the wine table in the hall, sat down, raised a glass of wine on the table, and drank it all in one go, and said slowly: "Today, the young master of the Zhang family has been detained by the county. In fact... With the background of the Zhang family, Chen Kaizhi can be finished. There is really no need to detain the young master of the Zhang family, and offend the Zhang family, the problem lies in the poem "The Goddess of Luo River. Think about it carefully, where is the current Queen Mother from?"

"Luoyang." Song Aishi subconsciously said.

County Magistrate Zhu smiled: "Yes, the God of Luoshui is in Luoyang? Some days ago, someone made a statement saying that the Empress Dowager is the Mother of God. In fact... this is true. Your Majesty is the Emperor, but the Empress Dowager is not Your Majesty's biological mother. But the Empress Dowager is in charge of the great power. Your Majesty is the son of heaven, but how can the Empress Dowager be a mortal? Those people in the court have really put a lot of effort, but who said that this is not the empress dowager's instruction?"

Song Aishi suddenly realized: "The students understood that the Queen Mother wanted to become a god. Because of this, some people in the court wanted to be liked, but relying solely on their few comments, the weight was too light."

Speaking of this, Song Ai Si Hongguang looked up: "But the Goddess of Luo River is different. The God of Luoshui is the origin of the empress dowager. What's more, I heard that the Empress Dowager is so beautiful that it is incomparable. Isn't this the image in the Goddess of Luo River? Besides, how could a small student make such a vivid work? So what Chen Kaizhi dreams must be true. The student understands that this is auspiciousness. The empress dowager sent a dream to Chen Kaizhi. The empress dowager is the god of Luoshui, and the god of Luoshui is the empress dowager. This... is auspiciousness that God has given to the adults."

County Magistrate Zhu smiled and said, "No, it's not that God has given this county auspiciousness, but that the Empress Dowager is the god of falling into the water. Chen Kaizhi has been sensed. Today, I just want to touch Chen Kaizhi's bottom. If this person is a cunning villain, this auspiciousness will not be here. When seeing him in Japan, he looks like a gentleman. Look, isn't this birthday gift ready?"

Song Ai Si had a clear understanding. From today's trial to the subsequent banquet, County Magistrate Zhu had ulterior motives.

He couldn't help but sigh: "Ming Gong is unfathomable, and students are worse than those."

County Magistrate Zhu was stern: "Don't make this happen in advance, so as not to miss the news. I personally copied a copy of the "Fu of the Goddess of Luo River". You summoned the most sophisticated weaver and copied it on the colorful silk. Openly, we sent ordinary birthday gifts to Beijing, and secretly sent the most confidant people to Beijing quickly..."

He thought for a while, was silent for a moment before saying, "Go to the palace in the name of Eunuch Zhang, and present it to the imperial front."

"Students understand."

"There is also the painting that must be cleaned up." County Magistrate Zhu suddenly reminded.

Yes, such naked paintings cannot be kept, wouldn’t that be molesting the Queen Mother?

Song Aishi nodded: "Yes."

...

When he woke up, Chen Kaizhi looked at the empty wall and thought that the picture of the jade girl had been confiscated by the county. Obviously, although the picture was "deeply meaningful", it was still unsightly.

He couldn't help feeling a little sad. This era is indeed different from the previous life.

Thinking of this, I hurriedly got up, washed, burned hot water, soaked it in yesterday's steamed cakes, and then went to school with a bookcase.

My mentor has decided to tutor myself. I have to study. Only by studying can I change my life, not be poor, and not be bullied by the Zhang family.

When he arrived at Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang saw him in his study and bowed. Mr. Fang did not say anything, but nodded and opened the book: "Reading is absolutely careless. Let's start teaching from the Four Books, listen carefully."

Chen Kaizhi nodded. He cherished such an opportunity very much.

Mr. Fang started to teach, deliberately speaking very slowly, and he learned almost the same, and it was almost time for class.

Chen Kaizhi stood up to thank him and said embarrassedly: "Sir, why not listen to your song."

This is a bit of pity for Mr. Fang. If Mr. Fang cannot find a soulmate, he must be very lonely. He will make some fun by himself, so he will not play the piano alone without any listeners.

Mr. Fang was indifferent: "Roasted wood cannot be carved."

Well……

This master... To be honest, Chen Kaizhi sometimes feels that he deserves a beating. Although he knows that you are cold and warm, he still teaches me to study, but can he not speak so badly?

Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "Goodbye."

“Not giving.”

Chen Kaizhi took two steps and was a little confused. In fact, he felt that his mentor was quite pitiful. Isn’t he tired when he held it like this every day? He couldn’t help but look back: “Mr., did you often listen to you playing the piano in the past?”

"Yes." Mr. Fang suddenly had beautiful memories, and smiled unconsciously, saying, "He is a fool."

What's wrong with a fool? I can still eat it!

When Chen Kaizhi thought of eating, he felt a little hungry again. The banquet last night was so a pity. He was just talking, and a braised chicken leg was still there.

Chen Kaizhi smiled embarrassedly and said, "Yes, yes, if my teacher doesn't mind, I can eat it."

"roll!"

Chen Kaizhi is embarrassed, I am kind enough to accompany you. Your attitude is like this? No wonder you are alone.

Chen Kaizhi had no choice but to bow reluctantly and said, "Mr., I'm out."

Mr. Fang said with a huh, and when he saw this vulgar boy, a ripple appeared in his heart. I wonder if the disciple who had already been named on the list was good in the capital, why hasn't there been any news yet?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh.

In the past few days, Chen Kaizhi has come to ask for advice every day, and the master and apprentice have maintained a tacit understanding. In addition to saying a few gossips, he teaches and listens to the class. In the past few days, Chen Kaizhi has indeed digested a lot of knowledge. Mr. Fang is easy to understand, and every word is precious, which has benefited Chen Kaizhi a lot.
