In September of the 16th year of Xiande's reign, Jiang Zhe entered the Hanlin Academy and was awarded the rank of editor and editor of the Hanlin Academy in accordance with the regulations, with a rank of seventh grade.
In the first month of the seventeenth year of Xian De's reign, Zhe was so knowledgeable that he took part in the preparation of the Chongwen Hall. For three years, Zhe was good at appreciation and research. He often forgot about food and sleep, never put down the scroll, and everyone who heard it was filled with admiration. Not long after, Qian moved.
Promoted to Hanlin Academy, edited and compiled, ranked sixth grade.
All the collections in the Chongwen Hall have been preserved to this day, and humble people have seen them before. Sixty-seven out of ten of them were edited and tasted by Zhe, which is astounding——
"History of Chu in the Southern Dynasties Biography of Jiang Suiyun"
What a blessing. I stretched myself and picked up the lone book of poetry in my hand. These days, I have been staying in the library of the Hanlin Academy. It is indeed the largest collection of books in the world. There are many books that I have never read.
I have a photographic memory. I have read a lot of books in the past. Basically, I only need to read a book once and I can remember the outline of it. I can also remember every word of a good article. But no matter how great my ability is,
I couldn't read these millions of books, so I found a book with an index of the collection, and selected some that I hadn't read in the order listed above and looked at them one by one. Anyway, I had to stay in the Hanlin Academy for three to five years, so I couldn't read them anyway.
Of course, I pay the most attention to those books marked as "unique copies". You must know that many of these books are unique works.
On this day, I was looking for a book to read in the library, and I accidentally saw a yellow silk booklet. It looked very exquisite, and it must be a rare masterpiece. I opened it casually and almost fainted. There were eight bloody characters on the front page.
"If you want to practice magic, wield your sword from the palace." I quickly closed it and looked at the cover, but it was "The Sunflower Book". I quickly threw it aside. I still want to marry a wife and have children. Then I saw a book from the Han Dynasty next to it.
Zhuangzi's "Health Preserver", I quickly picked it up and flipped through a few pages. Although the text was similar to what I saw outside, the eyebrow writing was very rich and densely written, almost filling the blank space. I really like to read other people's annotations.
It embodies the hard work of scholars. Seeing that there was no one around, I grabbed the stool and sat down. It was a waste of time to go back and forth to look outside. I was fascinated by this look. It turned out that the person who wrote the comments might be
A Taoist priest and doctor wrote all the secrets of health care, such as when to eat, what to drink, what time to get up, what time to go to bed, how to meditate before going to bed, how to practice Qi when getting up, and even in the room.
I have all the skills, it’s really my favorite. Don’t laugh at me. My biggest wish is to live comfortably, without illness or disaster, to marry a gentle and virtuous wife, and to have several lovely children.
It's also very important. Haven't you seen that lustful people often have short lives because they don't control themselves and don't know how to maintain their health? I was just happy when I suddenly thought, no, how do I know if what he said is right? What should I do?
After thinking about it, if I have any doubts, I have to solve them myself. So, in the next month, I searched for information on health preservation in the library. Some of them were contradictory, and some of them corroborated each other. Who am I? I am a genius. Finally,
Let me sort out a set of my own health tips and start putting them into practice.
How to do it, first of all, as soon as I open my eyes every day, I sit quietly for a while and practice the art of nourishing qi, then go out to move my hands and feet. Although I can’t practice boxing, I can still do Wuqinxi, and then have a light breakfast.
, and then go out to do things. If there is nothing to do at noon, of course the best thing is to go home and have a nutritious lunch that is in line with the season. It is best to eat later. After taking a nap, do whatever you like. If it is in the evening
When having a social event, be sure to drink less and eat less food. When you get home, drink a glass of medicinal wine you brewed to clear your stomach before going to bed, then meditate for half an hour, and then sleep well. Also, sit, lie, and walk according to certain rules.
Of course, the posture should not look too obvious. Although my current position is low and such a life is not guaranteed, but is this the goal I want to achieve as much as possible. As for martial arts, I don’t know how to practice it. I have never heard of a good swimmer.
Drowning in water? If I know martial arts, I will inevitably get involved in some unexpected things, and maybe I will die young. Anyway, I just want to live to be seventy years old.
I persisted like this for two months, and sure enough, my physical condition improved greatly, and the minor ailments I often had before disappeared. I also felt that my thoughts were clear, and I could write with more concentration when reading and writing.
On this day, I walked out of the library and prepared to have a good lunch. Alas, I couldn't afford a good cook, so I had to cook it myself. When I was thinking about what to eat for lunch today, Liu Kui, who was the same year as me,
It was the second-place finisher who came over with a smile and said, "Brother Jiang Nian, what do you think, let's go to Mingyue Tower together?"
"Mingyue Tower, what are you doing?" I asked curiously.
Liu Kui said in surprise: "Why, don't you know, go to Princess Changle's piano recital!"
"Qinhui, Princess Changle." I became even more confused.
Liu Kui said: "Yes, everyone in Jianye doesn't know that Princess Changle married far away from our country, so she couldn't help but feel homesick. In order to relieve her loneliness, she held this piano party. I heard she wanted to see the style of a scholar from Nanchu, and also
I heard that the female companion of Princess Changle was Liang Wan, the famous piano fairy in Dayong. Liang Wan's piano skills were said to be passed down from the music saint Wuyouzi.
Marrying Nanchu. I also heard that Liang Wan intends to choose a son-in-law in Nanchu. You said, any unmarried talented man would not want to give it a try."
I was dumbfounded and said, "But didn't Liang Wan come as a dowry?"
Someone next to him replied: "That's just a title. I heard that the princess has told the prince a long time ago that Liang Wan is her good sister and she must marry a like-minded talented person to be her main wife."
I looked back and saw that it was Tanhua Fu Yulun. I saw that he had put on gorgeous casual clothes and had a jade flute tied around his waist. He must have wanted to beg the queen. But he was from a Huaiyang family, so he should have this status.
.I snickered in my heart, if that Liang Wan is really so outstanding, His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely sigh, but he has to give Princess Changle face. After all, after he ascends the throne in the future, the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard can choose any concubine at will. Now?
, it’s better to be cautious, after all, Princess Changle’s identity is different.
Originally, I had no interest. I am very self-aware. My appearance is pretty good, but it is only above average. My talent is also good, but if I have talent but does not have a good background, I will not have many opportunities to make a career.
, these days, when the war is in chaos, the generals who can lead the army in battle are much better than the literati like us. Nanchu pays more attention to the literati, so its national strength is not strong, even the Shu Kingdom in the middle of Shu is not as good. If it were not for the water.
The army is more powerful, and Dayong has already crossed the river. To sum up, I, Jiang Zhe, am not a target worth fighting for, and I don’t have the strength to defend myself. Not to mention that Liang Wan will not fall in love with me, but he does, so I
Do you dare to marry me? But it’s not good if you don’t go. People will think that I don’t give face to the prince and Princess Changle, so I decided to go just this time. Anyway, I am not very good at those piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. I can listen to the piano and chess.
I can play, but it's hard to win. Calligraphy, it's not bad, but it's definitely not a famous handwriting. Painting, I can barely handle it, but I'm better at appreciation. I have a cousin who is a famous court official.
There are countless jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings that have passed through my hands. I studied hard with him back then, and I have read a lot of books in recent years. I believe I can make a living in this area. If my father hadn’t taken me away, I would still have
I really want to go to the imperial court.
While thinking wildly and dealing with them casually, a group of us arrived at Mingyue Tower. Mingyue Tower was originally a courtyard for high officials, and it happened to be adjacent to the newly built Prince's Mansion a few years ago, so the Prince later simply bought it.
Come down, because I like its compactness and exquisiteness, I did not connect it to the Prince's Mansion. It is said that Princess Changle liked this place very much after she came here, so she came to use it as her leisure place. Now Liang Wan holds a piano concert here, it is really wonderful.
It couldn't be more appropriate. After passing through the dark corner gate, I looked around at this small garden. There was a pool of clear water, more than a dozen red plum trees, and the exquisite two-story building that was reflected in the waves. It was really a fairyland. No wonder Princess Changle liked it.
As I walked, I thought, how many people can such a small building accommodate? When I walked around the edge of the pond, I saw an open space in front of the small building. It must have been planted with flowers and trees, but now it has been cleared.
A garden shed was built with pine branches. The shed was covered with thick thatch. There was a red stove around it, smelling the wine. There were several rows of seats covered with thick fur in the middle of the shed.
The winter in Chu is not particularly cold, and it happened to snow lightly today. It was warm inside the shed, and there were more than a dozen noble men wearing various light fur coats sitting inside, admiring the snow, tasting plums, and drinking.
Chun Niang is really the wonderful life of Wang Buyi in the south. After getting closer, I heard them talking about how it turns out that Princess Changle’s piano party can be attended by everyone, so except for the young upstarts, only the children of aristocratic families dare to attend.
, and I am conceited and have some talent, otherwise I would be looking for trouble on my own, so not as many people came as I thought. Although I regret not coming, I feel dissatisfied after seeing this kind of hospitality.
Yes, I quickly jumped up and sat down in a corner, then poured a large cup of warm imperial wine, preparing to have half a day of leisure in my life.
Not long after waiting, the door of the small building opened, and twelve beautiful and tall beauties with palace makeup came out. They lowered the bead curtain in front of the door. After a while, the sound of jingling rings came from inside, and then, faintly,
There was a refreshing aroma, and one of the palace maids bowed and bowed inward, then turned around and said in a clear voice: "Her Royal Highness the Princess has given orders, Miss Liang is playing the piano in the building, whether it is poetry, articles, chess, calligraphy or painting.
If someone can please Miss Liang, Miss Liang will come out and meet everyone."
Everyone immediately sat firmly and held their breath. After a while, the sound of Liang Wan's piano came from the building. The sound of the piano was weak at first, making people have to listen carefully. Gradually, the sound of the piano whirled and circled, like a butterfly passing through flowers.
When it came out, the sound of the piano came over and over again, and the phonology was continuous, like a mountain spring, fresh and smooth, which made people feel breathless. When I heard this, I yawned quietly. It was so boring. I thought that Dayong was coming.
The piano player would be very good, but it turns out that this kind of piano skill is not unheard of in Nanchu. At this moment, the sound of the piano became more and more subdued, making people feel a little drowsy. Suddenly, something unexpected happened like a silver bottle
At first break, the cavalry stood out, and the rapid tones were like thousands of troops galloping horizontally. After the explosion, the sound of the piano became rich and calm, with hidden murderous intentions, heroic and sad, it was like a scene of autumn troops on the battlefield. I listened attentively,
This is a good piano sound that deserves to be revealed. Then the piano sound gradually returned to calmness, just like the singing and dancing after the war, making people intoxicated in a relaxed and happy mood.
When the song ended, there was thunderous applause, and then everyone took out their favorite works one after another, hoping that Liang Wan would like it and come out to see it. However, Liang Wan was probably very high-spirited and refused to show up. Later, she became a little brainless.
Everyone's eyes fell on me, and a noble young man said to me, half begging, half commanding: "I have heard for a long time that Jiang Zhuangyuan is talented, and his song "Feelings under the Moon" shocked the world. I also asked Brother Jiang to write a poem.
Lest I, a scholar from Southern Chu, lose my face." I was speechless. These guys, it seems that I can't come up with any good poems, just like they have lost their national style. That's all. This kid is the only son of the Prime Minister Shang Weijun. I
I couldn't offend him. I happened to listen to such a piece of music, which made me feel very itchy. So, I didn't need pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and chanted loudly: "Intimate children's words, grievances and grudges between you. Suddenly it becomes loud, warrior."
Go to the enemy's field. Floating clouds and willow catkins have no roots, and the sky and the earth are vast and open to flying. Hundreds of birds are noisily chirping, and suddenly a solitary phoenix is seen. I can't climb any higher, and I lose my position and plummet. I have two ears to complain, and I can't listen to the silk bamboo.
Hearing Master Liang's playing, he stood up and sat aside. He suddenly stopped pushing his hands, and his wet clothes were filled with tears. You are so sincere and capable, but you can't put ice in my intestines." There was a moment of silence in the venue, and cheers suddenly broke out, and several people quickly ordered to take them.
Pen and ink, I want to silence my poem. When the place was in chaos, I heard the bead curtain flying, and a girl wearing a plain yellow Luo Yi and a light green cloak walked out of the building. I looked closely, this girl was about
She is about twenty years old. What is very different from the Nanchu woman is her slender and well-proportioned figure. Although she is wearing a lot of clothes due to the cold weather and the cover of the big cloak, it is not clear, but that kind of vague figure is
Her beauty made people yearn for it. I looked at her face, and saw that although she had not applied makeup, her skin was as bright as snow, with two lines of black eyebrows on her temples, and her bright eyes as clear as ice springs.
What a peerless beauty.
Liang Wan's eyes fell on me, she smiled slightly, and bowed down and said: "This is the talented man from Southern Chu, who must be the number one scholar in this subject. I like your poems very much." Although I was a little dazed, but
He understood very well in his heart and said quickly: "It is Suiyun's good fortune that my work can be appreciated by the young lady. In fact, I have many talented people in Southern Chu, but Jiang is the best because of his quick thinking. If the young lady is interested, you may wish to discuss it in detail with everyone."
"Liang Wan's beautiful eyes turned to look at everyone. Now everyone seemed to have received an amnesty, and they quickly gathered around me. I didn't say much. Gradually, seeing that Liang Wan was already talking very congenially with everyone, I quietly
I slowly slipped out. Just when I was about to walk out of the corner door, I subconsciously turned around and saw the window at the back of the small building was half open, and a pair of crystal clear eyes were looking at me. I pushed the door open and left.
Go out, who is that? Somehow, I always feel that it might be Princess Changle.
Later I heard that Princess Changle gave Mingyue Tower to Liang Wan to live in. Liang Wan had a bright temperament. If someone came to visit her, as long as she had good poems and songs, or was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she could often get an audience, many of them
The young people who loved Liang Wan all tried their best to meet her. Although many people were interested in her, they did not dare to use force because of Princess Changle. Besides, Liang Wan became more and more famous, and no one dared to offend her. Later on,
, even the leader of the Kingdom Zhao Sheng accepted Liang Wan as his adopted daughter. Although she was not included in the genealogy, everyone began to call her Princess Mingyue, and her reputation spread far and wide.
I, a little Hanlin bachelor, will not go to this trouble. Although Liang Wan posted several times to invite me, I refused with various excuses. When someone asked me, I said, there is Yan Ruyu in the book, although others laughed at me
Although I am pedantic, I am also happy to have one less powerful enemy. However, in order not to go too far, I devoted myself eagerly to the collection of books in the Hanlin Academy. In this way, I can enjoy myself and avoid others looking at me. In this way, I have produced a person who makes me very happy.
As a result of this madness, in the first month of the seventeenth year of Xiande, I was allowed by special edict to participate in the establishment of Chongwen Hall. As a young man with a photographic memory, I quickly became the main force in it. It is no wonder that I am proficient in appreciating antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
, I also learned a lot and remembered that I was very effective in organizing the collection of books, calligraphy and paintings. I am young and strong, so who can use me? This is the happiest period in my life. From the time when Chongwen Hall was officially established to
It took a total of three years to complete, and I have been working on it and never tired of it.
Of course, while I was immersed in books, something happened that I vaguely thought might happen, that is, the conflict between Nanchu and Shu, and it became more and more intense. Of course, I had no chance to participate.
I am not interested in knowing. Apart from that, if there is anything special, it is that Princess Changle was pregnant, but unfortunately she miscarried. It is said that it was because of her youth and acclimatization. After that, Princess Changle has been in poor health.
, so when you live in the Mochou Lake Palace in the western suburbs of Jianye, of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be lonely. The maids married to Princess Changle are all beauties from Dayong, and all of them are good at the art of inner charm. They have long since become
She is the favorite concubine of His Highness the Crown Prince. Everyone who told me this was full of envy for the Crown Prince's beauty, but I smiled bitterly. In my opinion, Princess Changle probably didn't like the Crown Prince very much, otherwise why would she move to the palace?
, that’s right, the golden Princess Dayong married to Nanchu, so she probably didn’t have any intention to please the mediocre Prince of Nanchu. I maliciously wondered if Dayong was marrying so many beauties out of intention to confuse the prince.
