[Comprehensive] Feasibility report on the restoration of the country

In the new year of the first year of Yuanyou, international envoys from the Liao Kingdom and Xixia rushed to Bianjing successively to celebrate the New Year for their nominally leading elder brother, Emperor Zhezong; Relegate the new party and recall the old party.

As a result, Su Shi, who had just been appointed as Chaofeng Lang, moved to the Ministry of Rites and was called back to the court.At this time, Su Shi was still on his way to Dengzhou. Obviously, it would be after the Spring Festival when he officially entered Beijing.But his younger brother Su Zhe was called back because of his duties as Secretary Provincial Secretary Lang and You Sijian, and he was able to rush to Bianjing before the New Year.

At the foot of the emperor, it is not easy to live in peace.Su Shi and Su Zhe have a deep brotherly relationship, so they simply wrote a letter asking Murong Fu to help take care of his younger brother.Being able to watch one of the "Eight Great Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties" up close, how could Murong Fu care about a little money?Soon, people bought two adjacent mansions outside Zhengmen, one for Su Zhe as a new residence, and the other for Su Shi who was about to return to Beijing.

Compared with his bold and straightforward elder brother, Su Zhe's personality is much more modest and cautious.Although he already knew about Murong Fu's existence, and even vaguely knew about Murong Fu's wealth, but when he saw Murong Fu bring him to this mansion with carved beams and painted buildings, twenty or thirty maids and servants lined up outside the door to greet him, he still ruthlessly surprised.When he realized that the mansion and the servants were all written under his name, he closed his eyes and concentrated his mind and refused to accept it.

Poor Murong Fu talked about the relationship between him and Su Shi as a teacher and apprentice until Su Mai was making money abroad, and he was dry when he said it, but Su Zhe seemed to be determined by weight, and he just kept shaking his head and said: : "This gift is too generous, I dare not accept it, I dare not accept it!"

Thinking that Cai Jing's mansion can occupy less than half of Bianjing, although you can't be the left minister in the future, you have also served as the right minister. It's just a five-entry mansion, what's the big deal?Murong Fu resisted the urge to roll his eyes, sighed, and said helplessly: "Since Uncle Master insists, then I can only ask Uncle Shi to stay at my house temporarily. I will arrange the affairs of this mansion, and Uncle Teacher is sure to be satisfied."

Su Zhe also knew that it would be difficult for Murong Fu to find another mansion for a while, so he nodded and agreed to Murong Fu's suggestion.However, Su Zhe regretted it the moment he saw Murong Fu's mansion in Bianjing.Entering the gate, you can see pavilions, small bridges and flowing water in a patchwork pattern, strange rocks, trees, flowers and trees complement each other, this is not a big house, it is a small garden at all.Su Zhe's family was stunned, but Feng Fengxi, who was leading them, was introducing the situation to them in a casual tone. "Originally, the mansion of my son-in-law was only in the middle. In the middle of last year, we bought all the houses of the east and the west. It is now the scale. The walls of the two courtyards were opened not long ago, and many trees were newly planted. It's really unsightly, please bear with Xiao Su." After speaking, he added another sentence with regret and guilt. "Compared to Yanziwu, I don't know how cramped this place is. You can't even stretch your hands and feet. I'm really wronged!"

As soon as this remark came out, Su Zhe, who had lived in poverty for many years, was speechless.In the evening, after drinking the reception banquet organized by Murong Fu for him, when he returned to his bedroom, he couldn't help but sighed to his wife Shi Shi: "Mingshi treats me with respect, sincerity, sincerity, and thoughtfulness in everything. Brother, this disciple has nothing to say. It's just that I see He is rich and young, and he is afraid that he will cause trouble for nothing by acting ostentatiously!"

Shi and Su Zhe were young couples with deep feelings. Hearing what her husband said, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Just now at the banquet, Chaoyun told me a lot about this disciple, big brother. Don't look at Mingshi's young age, Qihai He has traveled almost all over the place, and Fang has accumulated such a huge family business. Not only that, he also went to the border to work for Zhong Er, and he is the first to create the nursing method that is circulated in the army. This kind of person, he acts in his own way, You don't have to worry about it."

Su Zhe knew long ago that his elder brother was exempted from the status of a criminal judge because of his offering of nursing methods. Hearing what his wife said, he immediately guessed the key to it, and his heart was greatly relieved.He frowned, and immediately asked, "Is this what Chao Yun meant, or what Big Brother meant?"

"Naturally, it is the meaning of the elder brother. If the elder brother thinks that Akashi has acted inappropriately, how can he entrust his brother to take care of him?" Shi replied softly, "Chaoyun also said that others only think that he is a traitor, elder brother But he once said that he is particularly proficient in miscellaneous studies, and he has the ability to turn stones into gold. Now the biggest source of income for the eldest brother's family is the profit from the sale of "Dongpo Wine" in Jinlin Building. Just now Mingshi chatted with me and said that he would sell Your articles and poems will be compiled into a volume and published in print, and he will be responsible for selling them to us to share the profit, and I have agreed for you. As for the articles written by the father-in-law during his lifetime, you two brothers will discuss and decide after the eldest brother enters Beijing."

It is the dream of every literati to collect one's works into volumes and circulate them widely, and Su Zhe naturally would not refuse.However, in today's market situation, most of the literati pay for publishing their works out of their own pockets. The so-called "running pen" has always been a beautiful legend.Therefore, when Su Zhe heard that Murong Fu not only didn't want his money, but wanted to contribute his own money to produce a collection of poems and essays for him, he immediately said shyly and coyly, "I'm afraid...it's not very good?"

Shi glanced at her husband, and said in a brisk tone: "I heard that Akashi has been absent since he was a child, and he treats his elder brother like a teacher as a father; the elder brother treats Akashi as if he were his own son. What's more, Uncle Ji and Akashi's cousin have a very strong relationship, and we will soon be married. You have come and gone like relatives, why do you see others like this?"

Su Zhe remembered that although his family lived in Murong's mansion, they were arranged to live in the main house together with his elder brother's family, while Murong Fu himself lived in a side courtyard instead.He understood in his heart that what his wife said was reasonable, and gradually no longer rejected Murong Fu's various arrangements.

Su Zhe didn't know that Murong Fu wanted to publish an anthology of poems and essays for the Su Shi brothers. In addition to his own interests, the more important thing was to gain reputation for the Su Shi brothers.At the beginning, Emperor Shenzong wanted to change the law, and he chose Wang Anshi as his prime minister because everyone in the world knew that he had "become famous all over the world for more than thirty years", and the people all said that if Wang Anshi did not enter the court, the world would be restless.As a result, the Xining reform only made this mess.Similarly, Sima Guang opposed the reform. He knew that Wang Anshi was inferior to Emperor Shenzong, so he simply resigned and returned to Luoyang to join Fu Bi, Wen Yanbo and others to set up a "Luoyang Senior Elite Association", which gained a great reputation among scholars.So that this time Empress Dowager Gao summoned Sima Guang to return to the court, and the people pulled Sima Guang to say that if Mr. Sima did not return to the court, the world would be restless.However, history can also prove that Sima Guang provoked party disputes for the indiscriminate abolition of the new law by the prime minister, and only made the government look like that.It can be seen that to be a prime minister in this era, the strength of the governing ability and the right or wrong of the governing policy are not the most important thing, but the prestige of this person among the scholars and the people is what is important.As long as the prestige value reaches the full level, the position of prime minister is like picking something out of a bag.All in all, if you want to be the leader, hype goes first.

However, within a few days, Su Zhe, who was cautious and polite, could no longer resist Murong Fu's enthusiastic offensive, and even with the encouragement of the other party, he began to sort out his work experience in accounting and water conservancy for publication.But his family has long been indifferent to the various jewels, silks, toys and food that Murong Fu sent.

On New Year's Eve, Su Zhe calmly sat on the main seat and accepted Murong Fu's salute instead of his elder brother.Even though he is modest and low-key by nature, the New Year's Eve dinner hosted by Murong Fu himself still gave him a great deal of prestige in front of his colleagues and friends.Su Zhegang secretly praised his elder brother in his heart, this disciple received a lot of benefits, but the extreme joy begets sorrow.As soon as the banquet was over, he received the news that his two honest sons were lured by Murong Fu, and followed Murong Fu to Little Sweet Water Lane to "increase their knowledge".And accompanying them, apart from Murong Fu, Qin Guan, Qiao Feng, and Zhong Shidao, Su Xi and Wang Yuyan dressed in men's clothes were also there!

"I want to go too!" The young Su Guo sighed in a low voice as he watched the crowd's distant figures.

"I don't know how beautiful Li Shishi is?" Su Xun, who was also young, was also depressed.

Su Zhe, who chased after hearing the news, had his eyebrows twitching. Although he also knew that it was elegant for officials to go to prostitutes in this era, it would be ill-considered to go to a brothel on New Year's Eve, so he immediately ordered Ah Zhu: "This matter must not be publicized! "

Seeing Su Zhe's ferocious expression, A Zhu held back, "'Heaven and Earth' is my Murong family's own property." Without mentioning a word, he just knelt down and blessed him with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Mr. They are all available manpower, and the news will never be leaked."

Su Zhe nodded with a stern face, twisted the arms of his younger son and nephew and went back.But it never occurred to him that Murong Fu and his party were ostentatiously crossing the market shoulder to shoulder, how could the news that they went to meet friends in a brothel not be known?Therefore, Ah Zhu's phrase "will never leak information" originally had a deep meaning.

Because restaurants and brothels have always been places where news is flying all over the sky, although Murong Fu disdains to earn money from those poor women, he has to pay more attention to all kinds of news from the court.In view of this, "heaven and earth" came into being.However, even though Murong Fu opened a brothel in a ruthless manner, he still cherished his reputation among literati, so not many people knew that the boss behind this "heaven and earth" was Tanhua of the current court.

"Heaven and Earth" has a great reputation in later generations, but now it is just a junior in Little Sweet Water Alley.Due to his limited status, Murong Fu is ignorant of all kinds of methods in modern nightclubs, and there is only one way to polish the signboard of "heaven and earth" - to spend money.So, with the support of the wealthy boss, the procuress of the brothel recruited the most popular singing girls, invited the best cooks, secretly hired a few failed scholars who wrote erotic poems, and finally paid a lot of money to invite the head of the capital Li Shishi came to "Heaven and Earth" every seven days to play and sing.There are two hundred and five bosses regardless of cost and a kind and generous Bodhisattva old bustard. Even if the prostitutes can't talk about working and loving, their working attitude is indeed much better than before.Therefore, even on New Year's Eve, "Heaven and Earth" is still overcrowded like a cloud.

A group of people came to the "heaven and earth", but they didn't bother to marvel at the magnificence of the brothel. The bustard, who was in his mid-mature, had already waved a handkerchief to greet Qin Guan. "Qin Xianggong, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I think of my slave family!"

As soon as the old bustard said this, everyone immediately turned their playful eyes to Qin Guan.Obviously, although "Heaven and Earth" is a rising star in Little Sweet Water Lane, Qin Guan is already a frequent visitor to them.With so many people watching, it was a bit embarrassing to be as romantic as Qin Guan.I saw him clearing his throat, before he could speak, Murong Fu, who was unfamiliar with the old bustard, already took out a golden bead and threw it into the old bustard's bosom, and casually ordered: "If you want a room, find some singers. Come and sing. Remember, I will never short you for money, but the food and drinks must be clean!"

The procuress of the brothel is well-informed, so naturally he pays more money than affection.Seeing Murong Fu's extraordinary skills, he immediately let go of Qin Guan and became attentive to Murong Fu. "This young man is a talented person. I don't know how to call him?"

Murong Fu took a step back calmly and said: "Lead the way ahead."

Seeing Murong Fu's serious expression, the old bustard knew not to be offended, so she left Murong Fu's side, obediently called Mr. Gui to come forward and led them to the second floor wing.

In the crowd, Qiao Feng and Zhong Shidao are both sharp-eyed and discerning people, just now when the old bustard pounced on Murong Fu and then flashed, the two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but smile, they thought to themselves: With a talent like Murong, come here I don't know who is entertaining whom.

Compared with these two people who gloated at other people's misfortunes, the children from Su's family did follow the rules.I saw them walking all the way, holding their breath and keeping their eyes on each other, carefully dodging the red-sleeved skirts, looking like they stepped into a dragon's den or a tiger's lair instead of visiting a brothel.On the contrary, Wang Yuyan, who was dressed in men's clothing, was more graceful. She lay on the window sill on the second floor and watched the singing and dancing in the hall for a while, then asked curiously, "Cousin, why did we come here?"

Murong Fu picked up the jug and sniffed it carefully, and after confirming that there was no aphrodisiac in the wine, he filled a glass for everyone present, and replied: "The place of fireworks is complicated, but everyone present Being in the officialdom or the rivers and lakes, sooner or later there will be a day to come here to socialize. You may be at a loss and be tricked by others, why not try it out now. As for Yuyan..." He poured another glass of fruit wine and handed it to Wang Yuyan, and said with a smile. "Although you are a woman, my cousin has always thought that if you set too many limits on yourself in life, it would be boring. So, before you get married, let's come and see it together. When you get married, you will not be so comfortable. !"

Su Ni, who was sitting next to Wang Yuyan, was devoted to Wang Yuyan, fearing that Wang Yuyan would not marry him after hearing Murong Fu's words, so she hastily expressed her loyalty. "Yuyan, if you like it, in the future... in the future, I will still accompany you."

Su Mi was born honest, even if she said such sweet words, it sounded sincere and without pretense.Wang Yuyan was so happy, she couldn't help holding Su Ni's hand and smiling brilliantly.She was born clean and beautiful, and this smile was like the moon shining brightly, which made people's hearts sway, and everyone lamented Su Nai's good luck.

Only Qin Guan watched coldly, shaking his head secretly with sympathy and pity.No matter how beautiful this daughter-in-law is, she is always jealous.What fun can there be in visiting a brothel with your daughter-in-law?

After a while, the door of the wing room was pushed open again.A gust of fragrant wind rushed in, but it was the old bustard who arrived with a few beautiful singing girls.With Wang Yuyan, Su Xi and other juniors present, even though Qin Guanshi is the reincarnation of a satyr, he has to pretend to be a gentleman with everyone at this time, so a few singing girls set up their postures in the wing room and began to play and sing.

Murong Fu poured wine to everyone present, relying on what he had seen and heard in his previous life and Bao Budong's reminder to him, he played and sang along with the song prostitute and casually talked about how this prostitute dug a hole to set up a trap.Beauty tricks, fairy dances, bitter tricks, counterintuitive tricks... This eclectic and vicious plot made people shudder, and even Qin Guan, a veteran of the show, exclaimed it was inconceivable.

But the few singing girls who were sitting with me were unhappy, and couldn't help crying: "These people you mentioned are not singing girls, they are obviously liars! Since you don't believe us in every possible way, why do you need our sisters to come here!"

Before Murong Fu could reply, the talented Qin scholar who had always been sympathetic to the fragrance and jade immediately changed his face, pointed at him angrily and said dissatisfiedly: "I said you are a piece of wood, but you still don't admit it! How can you make people cry every time?" Said After that, he hugged the singing girl beside him softly to comfort him like no one else was there.With practical actions, he has shown his firm position that he can't live up to his beauty, even if he is cheated into the game, he will be happy.

With Qin Guanfan in front, the rest of the courtesans stopped playing and singing, and bowed their heads and wept.

Seeing this group of smiling Yingying Yanyan in the blink of an eye, all the pear blossoms were raining, Zhong Shidao couldn't help feeling his scalp tingle.With the belief that a dead friend will not die a poor one, he hurriedly brought a glass of wine to Murong Fu, and said loudly: "Murong, you have made a disrespectful and abrupt beauty, so hurry up and make amends!"

Murong Fu couldn't help laughing, and was about to defend himself, when he heard a familiar female voice laughing in a low voice, "Mr. Murong is so cruel! How many women will weep for you? Are you willing to give up?"

Everyone followed the prestige, but they saw Li Shishi, the head of the capital's line, who was dressed in a willow-colored blouse and swept his eyebrows, standing gracefully outside the door.

The author has something to say:

Master Li: Mr. Murong is so cruel!How many women do you have to cry for you before you give up?

Audience: yooooooooooo!
