The first writer of Qing Dynasty

Wang Shizhen replied with a cold face: "What does the eighth elder brother mean by this?" Did he think that this would threaten him as the censor?

He believes that his friend can be safe in his hometown, and he doesn't think that the eighth elder brother can have such great ability to extend his hand to Zichuan, Jinan Prefecture.

"My lord, don't get me wrong. I'm just interested in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio. I wonder if you've heard of the fox fairy I wrote?"

As far as the current level of scripts in the Qing Dynasty is concerned, the scripts written by Pu Songling are unprecedented. Yinhu’s current imagination and creative breakthroughs are due to the many dramas in his mind since he was a child. He was "standing on the shoulders of predecessors", which is not comparable to Pu Songling's "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio".

How can the author of folk, wild, and self-born strange tales not attract Yinhu?

Painted Skin, Fox Demon, Land City God, etc., if this storybook can be published, it will definitely set off a trend of ghost storybooks.

So Yinhu thought, is it possible to get "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" from Wang Yushi?

Wang Shizhen respectfully kept him at a distance, and said bluntly: "Pu Liuxian's story has not been finished yet."

That's why he felt unbelievable, because the eighth elder brother had such well-informed news.

Today, only a few people have obtained the manuscript of Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio. Wang Shizhen and Pu Songling have been close friends for 11 years, and they were amazed by Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio.

Although his writing is supernatural, he satirizes corrupt officials.He reflects the sufferings of the common people in the stories of his works, and the arrogance and arrogance of the powerful land gentry are vividly displayed on the paper. The seemingly eccentric works actually have special connotations. How can it not be admirable?

Yinhu sighed: "Master Wang thought that I would be bitter about your impeachment?"

Wang Shizhen remained silent.

"If I cared about a little infamy, I wouldn't have written "Concubine Shang", let alone "Master," Yinhu said with a smile indifferently: "I have never had any other hobbies in my life, but I like reading novels." I don’t have any lofty ambitions for writing story books, and I have already endured the scolding I deserved, and Ama Khan doesn’t even bother to scold me.”

Yinhu said sincerely: If you want to impeach, please continue, I really want to strengthen Na Pu Liuxian.

He began to look for opportunities to meet Mr. Wang by chance, and often whispered in his ear.

The eighth elder brother greeted him with a smile every time, and Wang Shizhen couldn't do the thing of reaching out to hit the smiling face.

After grinding, his solid defense was shaken under Yinhu's offensive.

My friend Pu Songling is 59 this year!

After repeated trials and failures, ambitions are hard to repay, and he makes a living by teaching in private schools in his hometown.

Now the eighth elder brother intends to use him as an intermediary to connect with friends. Wang Shizhen is upright in the officialdom, so when he visits him in private, he is not as repulsive as he appears on the surface.

Yinhu had a sentence that shook Wang Shizhen even more.

"If you want to follow the righteous way, how boring is it to write those poems and songs? I just like story books, I like listening to stories and writing stories. What does it matter to me what the world thinks?"

Pu Songling is not a person who is unwilling to cater to the world. Someone in his class persuaded him not to write any more scripts, but to focus on the righteous way. If he gave up, the amazing "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" by Wang Shizhen would not be born.

These words are said from the mouth of "Qingcheng", who has set off a craze for story books in the capital, and the credibility is quite high.

After all, Wang Shizhen is a thin-skinned literati, and he can't understand why the eighth elder brother is so elusive that he can always run into him outside.

Yinhu said: "Lord Wang, I don't want to use my status as a prince to persecute people. The reason I want to make friends is because I write a storybook and I have been friends with each other for a long time. If you are worried that my status will bring trouble to your friends, why don't you let me just Get acquainted with him in the name of 'Qingcheng'."

Wang Shizhen has no reason to stop Qingcheng. This is the "sympathy" between the two story book lovers. He is also under a lot of pressure. A chance to meet a friend?

To defeat Wang Shizhen's defense, we must not only touch people with emotion, but also present real objects. For example, Yinhu finished writing "Master"!

He is willing to take out the original version of "Master" that has not been sold outside, which is such great sincerity.

After all, Wang Shizhen did not evade Yinhu's offensive. He promised to combine Yinhu's most successful book "Concubine Shang", which has caused a lot of repercussions in the capital, with the original version of "Master", which he wrote with a lot of thought and broke the rules of the world. It was sent to Pu Songling, Zichuan, Jinan Prefecture, and at the same time, there was also a letter written by "Qingcheng" himself.

Attached is a letter of recommendation from Wang Shizhen, saying that the author of these two books, "Qingcheng", met his good brother lately, and hoped to exchange information with you, and borrowed and copied Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio.

The reputation of Qingcheng is well-known around the capital, and in recent years it has also tended to spread to the outside world. Pu Songling, who lives in Jinan Prefecture, has heard of the name "Qingcheng", but has never read his script.

One is that Jinan is far away, and the other is that Qingcheng's words are sold out as soon as they are sold, and the price is high and difficult to buy.

Jinan is different from the capital city, and the storytelling atmosphere has not yet formed as hot as the capital city, but in recent years there has been a faint trend. In the teahouses in the big city, the voice of storytellers speaking Qingcheng scripts appeared.

Pu Songling is among the many writers who respect women the most at present. Although his script still has traces of the three cardinal principles and five constant principles, compared with other secular people, he has made great progress. He read "The Queen of Shang" At the beginning, I was amazed at the plainness of his words and words, which was more free and easy than his own, and he couldn't help secretly admiring the uniqueness of the author's "Qingcheng" between the lines.

"Queen of the Shang Dynasty" depicts the subtlety of women's fighting in the house, the rise and fall of the back house, and it is another masterpiece that satirizes and criticizes the rich and powerful!

The final ending is even more applauding. Excellent women can be alone, even if they don't have a master, they can still live well and spend the rest of their lives together.

With such an ending design, it's no wonder that Qingcheng will be "scolded".

Pu Songling has also heard sour scholars scolding Qingcheng, and he just laughed it off. Waiting to see the rebellious demon in "Master", the strong and powerful Xueer, and the original plot of "Master", the final ending Unexpectedly, Xue'er forced her to marry her master, which made people's glasses drop, and they were all over the place!

At the same time, he saw the letter written to him by "Qingcheng", in which he said that he had long been friends with him.

Coincidentally, after he read Qingcheng's storybook, he also wanted to make friends with "Qingcheng".

Pu Songling readily agreed to give Qingcheng a copy of the "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" he was writing, and said, "If there is a new work in the future, don't forget to send a copy to Qingcheng."

He was quite happy, and told his wife Liu: "Brother Zizhen was lucky enough to meet 'Qingcheng' in the capital, but it gave me the opportunity to make friends with people of the same way through his relationship. Happy, happy!"

So when Qingcheng wrote to him asking if he would like to print "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" for more people to read, Pu Songling agreed.

Probably this is the discovery that there is another bosom friend in the world who caused a huge wave in the capital, and also retreated unscathed, leaving behind a grand reputation.He is eager to try and feels that he can do it too!

He believes that his stories are wonderful and moving, even if no one reads them, even if he is ridiculed by his fellow villagers and classmates who are also scholars, he will not give up. He feels that what he writes is gold, and if it is gold, there will always be light. one day.

After communicating with Pu Songling, who had been in love for a long time, Yinhu found that he had dug up a big treasure!

Pu Songling, can be elegant or vulgar, can write brilliant articles, and can also sing the most low-level vulgar songs. He is wonderful because he has read thousands of sails and has rich experience, but he does not succumb to the prejudice of the world. Outside, but also tolerated in the secular in the true nature.

The most refreshing thing about making friends with him is that Yinhu can see all kinds of folk customs that he, as the prince and elder brother, can't understand, and can listen to many anecdotes and strange things told by him.

There are countless stories hidden in his stomach, which are the human landscapes he saw and felt in the first 59 years of his life.

The real scenery of the world is more attractive than the fictional and exaggerated dramas in the mind!

Yinhu single-handedly contributed to the formation and publication of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio", and also made this excellent work buried in the folks popular in the world many years in advance.

Since then, the story books of Zhiguai have become popular again.There are more and more people following the trend, and "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" is a book that directly enshrines the gods!

Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio is so popular that it has aroused people's envy. No one can imagine how much the author of the storybook has made under this trend.

Money and interests touch people's hearts. Pu Songling's family, who was impoverished in Zichuan, suddenly became rich and bought a mansion. There was a lot of talk about it. The poor scholar who was looked down upon by his classmates would one day turn himself around by relying on his scripts. I don't know how many people are envious of him. , Jealousy.

Since then, some people have accused Pu Songling of being dissatisfied with the court and opposing the court with the same means as the "first meeting", but they don't know that long before Pu Songling, there was already a Qingcheng memorial who broke through the secular world and broke the three cardinal principles and five constant principles.

So what?The more insults, the more people will see and hear them. Even the illiterate people have already heard what they said.

The old man in the family, the young child, and the cattle-herding boy in the country can all tell one or two Liaozhai stories that are both elegant and popular. It can be seen how popular Pu Songling's words are.

And the sinister villains who wanted to pull him down from the high place lived in the prison one by one.

Later, the villagers learned that Pu Songling had the help of noble people in the capital!

It was only later that Pu Songling found out that it was the prince Baylor who corresponded with him, and often talked in detail about the writing techniques of the script and the plot design of the "Qingcheng".

It is said that "Master" fell into the hands of Tao Sai.

Taosai was very angry after watching the ending, and the consequences were very serious.

He didn't come to trouble Yinhu, but he changed the ending of the traitor with his pen, and like castration, he cut off the relationship between Xue'er and Demon Lord Ling Xiao in "Master"!

There is no other master in the world who is as great as him, who repays evil with kindness.

Good boy, this is dancing wildly on the bottom line of secular human relations. This book would either become a banned book, or it would not be sold at all.

The ministers in the DPRK also circulated among each other that Qingcheng's real identity is the eighth elder brother Yinhu.

Tao Sai changed "Master" to save Yinhu's life, so that he would not be overwhelmed by the saliva of civil officials, and would not fall into the situation of being attacked by everyone.

What should be scolded in "Concubine Shang" has already been scolded, but "Master" has won a great reputation, Tao Sai sighed: "My dear disciple, I can only help you here."

So in his writing, the tacit understanding between Xue'er and Ling Xiao Demon, the charm between men and women without piercing the window paper, and the emotion between master and apprentice have all changed.

Xue'er, what a touching filial daughter who challenged the descendants of the ten great venerables to avenge her master!

The Demon Lord Ling Xiao, the rebellious Demon Lord, showed a kind smile like an old man in front of his disciple who was as beautiful as a flower.

He didn't like Venerable Bingya, and he became like an old father picking on his son-in-law.

As for the finale, Tao Sai cut off the No. 20 article, and only he has the real original work, and the one handed over to Shusi is the castrated eunuch version of "Master". position, to please the master to support the rest of the world.

What a teacher, kindness and filial piety, what a touching family affection, under Taosai's pen, he also wrote that Venerable Bingya embraced the beauty, and was recognized by Demon Venerable Ling Xiao under the test of Demon Venerable Ling Xiao, and married Xueer as the king's wife .

He didn't think there was such a huge poisonous point in it at all, so complacently, he asked people to take the castrated and changed script to Shusi.

As the person who was brought into the master by his disciples by name, no one could understand Tao Sai's mood.

As far as he is concerned, seeing the demon king Ling Xiao and Xue'er together is as hard to swallow as eating dirt.

And the master is kind and the disciple is filial, the master smiles and brings blessings to see the disciple getting married, this is Tao Sai's expectation!

Undoubtedly, the "Master" after No.12 is still wonderful. People didn't realize it until No.17, like a frog in a frog boiled in warm water. , listeners who have already had a premonition of the "taboo of master and apprentice" in the previous dialogue, but many of them watched the follow-up with the mood of "exciting" and "hunting for novelty", who would have thought that this would be the end?That's it?

In the finale, another male protagonist was changed, making Ling Xiao Mozun a big poisonous point of "old man", which caused a huge wave of scolding wars among the people.

During the "Concubine of the Shang Dynasty", those sour scholars scolded him, but Qingcheng's loyal readers could still speak out to defend him, and female readers were generally more gentle and reserved.

But in this chapter of "Master", whether Xueer is with Mozun, or Xueer is not with Mozun, there will always be people scolding. The ending of the latest sale made the original old listeners and spectators unacceptable!

As a result, Qingcheng's reputation became even worse than before, and the audience and spectators scolded it badly, and those who loved Qingcheng were poisoned as if they had eaten flies.

Or don't write about the bond between Xue'er and Demon Lord Ling Xiao in the beginning, and write about Demon Lord Ling Xiao's detachment from the world, let alone hint to the audience that the two of them may be together in the future!

But now, Qingcheng emphasized that Xue'er is different from the worldly people in the front, Lingxiao Demon Lord is powerful and self-indulgent, and later changed his attitude to become a teacher, kindness and daughter filial piety among the three cardinal principles and five constant rules, and so on, in the shackles of the world People in "The Master" are dissatisfied with the front, and those who want to see a transcendent world are dissatisfied with the ending. The ending of "The Master" is called "rotten".

"Qingcheng showed a feeling of wanting to break through the world, but in the end she retracted her hand timidly. It can be seen that she is a cowardly person, a person who ran away."

"After all, she still succumbed to the rules of human relations and ruined a good work."

Those who commented on Qingcheng Huaben talked about it with great relish, and sour scholars had something to say again.

"What I said at the beginning, a woman like her would have to pay a price for writing such words that challenge the world. She must have been afraid, so she stopped writing for a long time."

People who don't know Qingcheng's identity talk about it like this, but courtiers who know that Eighth Prince is Qingcheng's identity speculate: "Maybe the emperor reprimanded Eighth Brother."

"Originally, the eighth elder brother could write some shocking things, but because he was impeached, he stopped!"

Pity……

Wang Shizhen was so depressed that he couldn't show it, so he walked past Yinhu with a sullen face.

Yinhu smiled, and gave everyone around him a copy of the original version of "Master" circulated in the palace.If someone regretfully asked him for it, he would of course be willing to give the original manuscript of "Master" before revision to others for copying, and it would not be possible to print and sell it on a large scale.

He wrote "Master" at the beginning to reconcile with his master, but now that he has made his master happy, he won't shoot himself in the foot!

Infamy, it's okay.

As long as you can coax Master well, even the fish pond will be contracted to Master!

Yinhu smiled and faced the implicit greetings from the courtiers. Prince Yu Fuquan also came to join in the fun, and asked him with a complicated expression, "How are you doing recently?"

Yinhu is about to marry Fujin, her mood index is rising steadily, and she will not be shaken by those infamy at all.

The wedding is approaching, and people are refreshed on happy occasions.

The third elder brother Yinzhi said: "Ama Khan never reprimanded you at all, and recited it for you for nothing. The adults all think that you wrote this because of Ama Khan's pressure."

He accused Yinhu: if you ruined a good work, wouldn't your conscience hurt?

Yinhu can never say: Not only does it not hurt, but it is also beautiful.

He gave Yinzhi the original manuscript of "Master", and successfully blocked the third brother's mouth.

When the courtiers saw that Wang Shizhen had been captured by Yinhu, they all speculated what kind of method Eighth Prince had used, but for the time being, no one dared to come forward and pierce the window paper, pointing out that he was Qingcheng.

No matter how the folks scold Qingcheng, it has nothing to do with the eighth elder brother, his wedding is getting closer and closer!

Guo Luoluoshi Minhui wrote to Yinhu with a worried look: I heard from Uncle Nineteen that some of his friends have rumored that Qingcheng is the elder brother of the prince.

Everyone knows that Qingcheng is the prince's elder brother. When I marry, do I still need to cover up?

If I know that he is alluring and cover it up and let him see it, will he think that I am scheming and not honest?

Minhui's pre-marital anxiety almost overflowed between the words and lines, Yinhu laughed dumbly, and wrote back: In the future, my younger sister and the eighth elder brother will be married together, he will not hide you, and he is also willing to be honest with you .There is no need to worry about gains and losses, the eighth elder brother has a gentle temper and will not be difficult to do. He likes to make friends with people with a straightforward temperament.

When Minhui received Siying's reply letter, she was not happy, but there was worry in her eyes.

"Sister Siying really has a very close relationship with Brother Ba."

Otherwise, why does Sister Siying seem to make up for Brother Ba every time?

She's not stupid, how could she not feel that kind of intimacy.

What is the relationship between them?

One is her boudoir close friend whom she talks about all the time, and the other is her future husband. Minhui only felt her throat was dry and she didn't dare to think about it.

The weather is getting colder, snowflakes start to fall in the capital, and the auspicious day for Yinhu and Guo Luoluo's marriage has arrived.

As early as last year's draft, the two got engaged. This time, the formal wedding was fully prepared, and nothing went wrong.

When picking out Xipa, Guo Luoluo shyly saw Yinhu's face and stared blankly.

Brother Ba and Sister Siying are too similar!

Who would believe that they are not brothers and sisters?

On the wedding night, she thought she would be nervous, but now she is full of doubts, her mind is full of: Why are sister Siying and elder brother Yinhu so similar?

Guo Luoluo pondered the relationship between their names, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he couldn't believe his guess.

This is impossible!

She would rather believe that Eighth Prince and Sister Siying are brothers and sisters than believe that they are "the prince pretending to be the princess" as written in "Princess Raksha".

"I hope this is all my imagination," Guo Luoluo thought to himself.

She thought about the possibility that elder brother Ruoba was Siying's sister, and she was so ashamed that she wanted to tap her toes on the ground. How would she face him in the future?

Yinhu and Guo Luoluo often corresponded and went out to play. They even went shopping together and got scolded together. They are already familiar with Fujin in the future. Can he be unhappy about marrying a wife?

Just when he was happy and drank too much wine, Yinhu became ecstatic.

The blush on her cheeks after drinking is also about [-]% similar to "Siying".

Guo Luoluo has specially studied Siying's makeup!

How her eyebrows are drawn, how her nose shadow is added, and how her makeup is applied, she has studied all of them nearby.

She is a woman who knows how to make up and is a close friend with Siying. Is it strange that she appreciates her friend's beauty and knows her makeup by heart?

As the closest person, Guo Luoluo heard that after the eighth elder brother drank too much, his cheeks were flushed and he looked good, and he called her Minhui in a very familiar tone, and immediately realized that something was wrong!

It was obviously the first time she met her husband, why did Eighth Prince seem to know her very well?

And this tone, this mood, there is a sense of familiarity everywhere.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Yinhu thought she was shy, tilted her head and thought for a moment with her chaotic mind, and said slowly: "I lost my composure today, and it's because the ninth and tenth brothers stared at me and drank too much alcohol. Just wait for me to drink the wine-knowing soup."

Even if he was drunk, Yinhu was still gentle and polite, without losing his composure.

Guo Luoluo saw that his little eyes were confused, and the two blushes on his cheeks made people want to poke him, so he couldn't help asking: "I have doubts and want to ask the master, I wonder if the master can answer for the minister?"

She had to ask, otherwise she would suffocate to death if she had to consummate the room with the eighth prince tonight!

Yinhu took a slow breath and tilted his head to look at her: "Huh?"

Guo Luoluo's face blushed when he saw him, and couldn't help covering his thumping heart.

"Is there any relationship between the master and Siying Gege of the Fuguo family?"

"........."

Yinhu was silent, as if frowning in thought.

Guo Luoluo couldn't help becoming nervous.

Yinhu looked at her, and both husband and wife became nervous, staring at each other like two wooden men.

With a strong desire to survive, he replied: "She is my sister."

Li Duofu called out: "My lord, the servant brought you hangover soup."

Guo Luoluo suddenly realized that a stone fell to the ground in his heart.

It turned out to be brothers and sisters!

…………

The woman's intuition was telling Guo Luoluo's eighth elder brother to be too familiar with her, and she always felt that something was wrong.

If they were brothers and sisters, why did the master subconsciously be so intimate with her when he was drunk?Could it be that Sister Siying took her letter privately to Brother Ba to read it?

No, sister, she is not such a person.

So when she entered the palace to accompany Concubine Wei who was awarded the title of "Liang", she inadvertently asked Concubine Liang: "Does Er Niang know Siying Gege from Fuguo's family?"

Concubine Liang was confused, and smiled softly: "I've never heard of this."

"What's the matter?" Concubine Liang held Guo Luoluo's hand. After being upgraded to become a mother-in-law, she was in a happy mood. The daughter-in-law was generally easy to get along with, sweet-talking and beautiful. Naturally, she was satisfied everywhere she met.

"No, it's nothing. My daughter-in-law thought my grandfather had a younger sister who looked similar to him."

"How could it be? I only have one child, Yinhu," said Concubine Liang with a smile.

She also has no other siblings, her family is simple, and she has nothing to do with Fuguo Gong's family.

Guo Luoluo's eyes vibrated violently, with an expression of extreme shock, and the look of astonishment startled Concubine Liang.There was a huge wave in her heart, and she wished she could rush over to question Master immediately.

The author has something to say: Ba Ye, there is a fire in the backyard, come back quickly!
