I slay demons and demons with poetry

Chapter 552

Today is a big day for Gu Zhai, Gu Shifan's [-]th birthday, and it coincides with Gu Fengjie's just becoming a scholar, so Gu's family also treats it solemnly.

At this moment, the door of Gu's house is full of guests, Gu Shifan is standing at the door to welcome the guests, cupping his hands to express his thanks, all the guests just feel that Gu Shifan's face is a little rosy today, and they are very happy, it's only because of the birthday banquet.

But only Gu Shifan knows that today's birthday banquet is nothing compared to the return of his son-in-law.

Song Mu, who had been rumored to be dead for five years, has now returned and has reached the realm of Hanlin.

It is a blessing to find something lost, not to mention a further step, which surprised Gu Shifan even more.

In the inner courtyard of Gu Zhai, Gu Chengxiu was even more delighted. He was happy that the so-called bad news of his grandson-in-law was just a rumor, and even more happy that Gu Qingqing and his two great-grandsons suffered loneliness and pain in the past few years. Finally, it was not in vain.

Naturally, Song Mu also had a sincere talk with the boss, roughly talking about what happened in the northwest, which also caused Gu Qingqing to show his heartache.

Gu Chengxiu hugged Song Chengming, nodded this time, and spoke to Song Mu.

"That's all right, Jingzhao, it's good if you come back, today's happy event in my Gu family, you will also show your face when the time comes, my son-in-law of the Gu family, but he is back."

When Gu Chengxiu said this, he also showed emotion, and Song Mu nodded quickly, knowing that at such an opportunity, he should also reveal his identity.

But at this moment in the Gu residence, the front yard is full of banquets, many guests have already been seated, including rich and nobles, the scene is a little noisy, before the banquet starts, everyone is whispering.

"Today's birthday banquet, there are not many officials here, and most of them are petty officials. How strange is this Gu family's birthday banquet?"

"That's right. It stands to reason that officials from all over the country will express their wishes to the Gu family. It seems that there are only a few that have made good friends with the Gu family."

"Hey, you just don't know about this matter. Although Mr. Gu said that the official is big, he can't stand the big deal."

At a banquet table in the corner of the courtyard, several wealthy businessmen were chatting.

"Brother Qi, you have seen a lot, and I don't know why?"

A businessman said to a well-dressed businessman next to him, that businessman surnamed Qi is a well-known grain merchant in Jinling, he is quite familiar with water transportation and has dealings with everyone.

"It's not because of the big reform of water transportation. Now, except for the official ships under the jurisdiction of the government, such as salt, iron, grain and wood, etc., they can go from the water as usual. The government ordered that the rest of the civilian ships are divided by size. Large ships need to be transported by sea, and small ships carry orders. .”

"In this way, the water transport merchant ships are almost in a mess, and many people have complaints."

Hearing these words, several merchants nodded, obviously they all knew something about it, but they were still frowning.

"But this decree was issued by Chang'an, besides, shipping is pretty good now, so why complain so much?"

Saying this, a strange look flashed across everyone's faces, and then the businessman surnamed Qi said cautiously.

"You can't tell the difference between them. Although sea transportation is beneficial, it can be said that water transportation has no way to survive. How many people have connections with water transportation on this water transportation road, and the common people's government can still be resettled. Those big families, but It will save tens of thousands of taels of silver a year."

"Northern Xinjiang leads the Sima family. How many boats are there on this water transport road? How many people are there? Just relying on traveling from south to north, we are..."

When the businessman surnamed Qi said this, he immediately kept silent. Everyone knew it well, but the businessman surnamed Qi sighed.

"Hey, because of the decline of water transportation, the natural authority has fallen, and this family is going against each other again. I see many people, I am afraid that they will not dare to come here."

Several people nodded, and someone sighed and said.

"However, it is said that the state of the world is so cold. Mr. Gu, who is a Jinshi, naturally does not dare to rush indiscriminately and compete with other Hanlin aristocratic families. He also has a son-in-law that everyone is looking forward to. Who would have imagined..."

Everyone knew about Song Mu. When the bad news came, the old man of the Gu family almost lost his temper. There was a lot of commotion in Jinling City, even now there are many comments.

"It's a pity for those people, but at least the Shiyang family is still standing, and Mrs. Song is very capable. The son of Song's eldest son is only nine years old, and he passed the county examination as soon as I heard it."

"Perhaps he can inherit the talent of this number one scholar."

Everyone inevitably sighed again, and murmured a few words at this moment.

"It would be great if the number one scholar of the Song Dynasty is still there. Don't say anything. My boy usually studies hard because of the poems written by the number one scholar of the Song Dynasty. Although he has joined some kind of practice club in the past few years, he is now being made things difficult by the government."

A few people were talking, and the topic changed, and it naturally came to Song Zhuangyuan's past. When they were sighing, they suddenly saw a large number of people pouring in from the gate of the Guzhai.

The one who was walking in front was actually Sun Qinghe, and there were many young students, who were rushing inside at this moment.

At first everyone thought they were classmates invited by the young master of the Gu family, but they didn't expect that several well-known Juren from Jinling also came along, all of them looked hurried, heading towards the backyard under the guidance of the young master of the Gu family.

All the guests were naturally a little surprised seeing this situation, but at this time there was a servant shouting loudly at the door.

"Master Inspector is here!"

The people who heard this got up quickly at this moment, they never expected that the governor would come to celebrate his birthday, but when they saw that the governor was rushing in, they hurriedly said to Gu Shifan with a smile .

"Master Gu, congratulations, the old man heard that the number one scholar has arrived here, where is he now?"

Gu Shifan quickly led in, but everyone who heard this suddenly paused, with surprised expressions on their faces, and someone immediately said it in disbelief.

"What the governor said just now is Song Zhuangyuan?"

"Song Zhuangyuan? Here? This..."

Several people had surprised expressions on their faces, and even thought that they had heard it wrong, but the next moment, they heard another sonorous and powerful voice coming from the courtyard.

"Song Mu pays homage to Lord Inspector!"

After the words were finished, everyone saw a tall man in a green shirt coming out from the corner door of the courtyard. After seeing his face clearly, someone suddenly exclaimed.

"Is he really Song Zhuangyuan?"

"how can that be?!"

The people who had met once by chance immediately nodded frantically, and then shook their heads desperately, thinking about the news that had already spread, they were extremely puzzled for a while.

But at this moment Song Mu had already arrived in front of Na Gu Shifan and Lai Inspector, and said in a deep voice with his hands folded.

"Song Mu has practiced in the Northwest for many years, and encountered danger several times. When he came back like this, he was already a different person."

"The old man also heard the news of Chang'an's arrival. This time the number one scholar has returned. I think His Majesty and the scholars and common people in the world are very happy!"

Lai Inspector said so, the audience was completely silent, but he figured out the meaning of this, Song Mu's return has been verified by the court.

Song Zhuangyuan is really back!

The next moment, there was a shout of applause from somewhere, followed by cheers. Song Mu had already bowed his hands to the crowd, but this time he spoke to the crowd.

"Thanks to everyone's love and love, today is Mount Tai's birthday. I came back in a hurry and almost missed it. It is Song Mu's fault that he made such a tragic thing and made Taishan and Zhuojing extremely sad."

After speaking, Song Mu looked at Gu Shifan again, bowed deeply and said at this moment.

"My son-in-law is reckless, and congratulated him for writing lyrics for Mount Tai."

As soon as these words came out, everyone around raised their eyebrows. Fang felt that this was indeed something that Song Zhuangyuan should have, and Gu Shifan also nodded with a smile.

So among the crowd gathered, Song Mu took the pen and wrote it in front of the crowd.

"Thousands of miles of Wowa species, famous for moving the emperor's house. Jin Luan played the grass that day, and wrote thousands of dragons and snakes. Bringing the boundless spring, waiting for the mountains and rivers to grow old, teach you to watch the crows on the temples. Don't care about the money flowing to the ground, and plan to get drunk. "

"Call for Shuangcheng, sing for jade, and dance for green flowers. A cup is for drinking for thousands of years, and the river and sea absorb the clouds. I heard that the emperor of the Qing Dynasty wanted to pull back the waves of the Milky Way and wash the sand in the northwest. Going back to the first day, the flying car is recognized in the clouds. .”

Xin Qiji's "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" originally composed for Zhao Jie'an in the Song Dynasty was completed, and the astonishing cultural power suddenly soared into the sky, and everyone was in an uproar, but at this moment, everyone was excited and looked at each other.

With such astronomical literary power, they couldn't believe it any more. The person in front of them was Song Mu, who was famous all over the world in the past!
But at this moment, Song Mu suddenly knelt down and bowed his hands to Gu Shifan, speaking very earnestly.

"Old Taishan, my son-in-law is ashamed of Qingqing and Taishan Taishui in this life. From now on, let Song Mu and Ruiying be filial to each other!"

"I will die without hesitation!"

Ruiying is Gu Fengjie's word, and these words are an expression of Song Mu's intentions. Gu Shifan froze in place for a while, but Song Mu's body suddenly surged with coercion.

In an instant, news of the safe return of the son-in-law of the Gu family spread to Jinling.

But some people remembered Song Mu's terrifying Hanlin coercion.
