The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 591 Imagination

"[A canal of blue waves leads to the sea, thousands of miles of rare treasures are sent away; countless merchants are bustling with endless vitality.]"

Historically, there were few barren and lonely places adjacent to canals.

Unless there is a more active business route instead.

Obviously, the river channel leading to Luo'an Mansion is still very prosperous on both sides.

Sheng Yuan listened to the lively hawking on both sides of the wide street, watched the noisy fireworks on the busy street, felt the lingering peaceful atmosphere among various construction shops on the street, and suddenly felt the prosperity and prosperity outside of Kyoto.

Of course, this is just the prosperity of this place.

"It seems that there is not much difference between here and Kyoto." Walking in the street market, An Yu glanced east and west, pushed the crowd aside for a while, went in, and went against the crowd for a while, until he was a little tired, and then chose a teahouse , Sitting in the private room and sighing with friends.

"It's okay, after all, there aren't so many businessmen coming and going in Kyoto." Lu Sheng looked at the crowded market outside the window indifferently.

"When we pass the mountain forest in front and walk forward, the customs and customs in front of us will probably be different." Sheng Yuan is not in a hurry to see more scenery that is very different from the capital, but feels that it is lively The pyrotechnics are fun.

Walk slowly, look slowly, let all the beats slow down, and you may find more unique scenery.

Perhaps, this is the meaning of study tour.

Only by seeing what you have not seen and knowing what you do not know can you constantly surpass yourself, change yourself, and improve yourself.

"..." Listening to Sheng Yuan's sentiment, An Yu felt the scene in front of him start to spin.

It's not that he doesn't understand, it's just that he wants to beat the wall.

Although he is a scholar, he can't stand this kind of sour and fake jealousy.

"This is the pattern!" Sheng Yuan didn't get angry after hearing his complaint, and patted him on the shoulder, expressing emotions in cadence.

"Okay! Okay! I admit that I'm vulgar!" An Yu raised her hand without any sincerity, "So, can we ask Xiao Er to introduce the special dim sum here?"

"Okay!" "Yes!"

Sheng Yuan and Lu Sheng spoke in unison.

……

"Let's go! This is the meeting place of our literary society, and it is also accessible to you, a money-grubbing person?!"

As soon as more than a dozen boats came up, they heard a commotion outside.

The three of Sheng Yuan looked at the delicious food on the table, and then looked up at the door, feeling a little hesitant.

The food can’t be disappointed, how can you not go to the excitement? !

The three nodded, one of them carried a plate of snacks, walked quickly to the door, and leaned against the door frame to look out.

The waiter waiter who was about to introduce local specialty snacks with excellent eloquence: "???"

……

As soon as Sheng Yuan stood still, he mixed three plates of dim sum with two friends, when he saw more than a dozen people dressed as servants chasing a fifteen or sixteen-year-old gentleman out.

The young servants looked unusual in their clothes, but Sheng Yuan didn't look at them too much, her attention was on the driven Lang Jun.

This gentleman, who looks to be about her age, is elegant and dressed like a student.

His face is powdered, and he has the appearance of peaches and plums; his eyes are narrow and long, and his eyes are clear; his figure is slender, with an imposing temperament;

With such a good appearance, he looked very promising from the face, but somehow he was treated so rudely.

The three of Sheng Yuan who disagreed shook their heads together, watching curiously while eating.

The waiter who didn't leave opened his glasses wide.

He just thought that these three nobles who seemed to be capable of causing trouble would fight against injustice!

As a result, he clicked twice? !

With that calm attitude, he doubted whether they were lamenting what happened to the gentleman outside, or feeling that the dim sum was delicious.

"Here, here, here is your reward." Chengdong and Xiaoyao stared at the waiter waiter for a while, and found that this person unconsciously watched the excitement of his husband/miss. To send the other party away.

"Hey! You haven't left yet?" Sheng Yuan turned around when he heard the sound, and saw Xiao Er who took the reward from Cheng Dong, and blinked in surprise, "That's great, come and explain to us!"

She waved to the trembling Xiaoer: "Who is this gentleman? What happened to the Wenshe that someone called out just now?"

"Eh?! Yes! Yes! Yes! You must know! Hurry up and explain in detail. If you explain it well, I will give you a reward!" An Yu was also confused. Hearing Sheng Yuan's words, he immediately raised his hand. hand in favor.

Even Lu Sheng, who was longer and less talkative, nodded and said yes.

"They are all students who are studying. Why does the literary society they say exclude this one?"

Probably because they read too many stories and they discussed too much, none of the three of Sheng Yuan believed that the weaker party must be pitiful.

According to the experience gained from the scriptures, there is something hateful about this poor man, and to study the consequences one needs to look at the antecedents, so although the three of them like to judge people by their appearance, they are not willing to draw conclusions easily.

"Returning to the honorable ones, this matter... is really complicated." Hearing Youshang, the waiter waiter immediately forgot the pressure from Chengdong, and said with a smile, "But who let the little one run the hall in our elegant building?" , I really know the reason!"

He put on a self-satisfied look of "If you ask others, you may not be able to find out", making the three of Sheng Yuan hurriedly urge.

"The scholar who was expelled was surnamed Shen, double-character Zhizhou. He is a native of our place and was born in a family of petty officials."

"Born in the family of a petty official?" Sheng Yuan and his little friend looked at each other, puzzled.

This student has a suave and suave demeanor, and that temperament doesn't look like he was raised in a family of petty officials!

"As for the details, I don't know much about it." The waiter scratched his head when they heard their questions, and said with a smile, "I just heard that this student Shen had a relationship with the granddaughter of the provincial chief envoy. There was a marriage contract, but then the marriage contract was broken."

"Looks like it has a story!" Sheng Yuan nodded three times, asking Xiao Er to continue talking.

"There have been rumors about this student's origin for a while.

It is said that he was originally a child of an aristocratic family. He was expelled by the family along with his mother. He came to our place and married into a family of ordinary officials.

It is also said that the circumstances of the two sisters in a family are very different. The elder sister married a small official and lived a mediocre life, while the younger sister married a student, and her husband and noble wife Rong Qingyun went straight up. Coincidentally, when the two sisters returned home, they gave birth at the same time, and the older sister took the opportunity to switch. baby.And the Shen student we are talking about happened to be the fake yamen that the dove occupied the magpie's nest in the legend, and was later exchanged by the senior officials and his wife after discovering the truth!
There are also rumors that this student's family background is not ordinary, but his father has no ability, so the family was kicked out of Kyoto to make a living in our small town..."

Sheng Yuan couldn't help being dumbfounded when he heard what the waiter waiter said.

Regardless of whether these rumors are the local people's own thoughts, or someone deliberately spread them, but these confusing guesses are simply more exciting than the scriptures!
Sure enough, imagination can connect the former and the latter across time and space!
