After being choked to death by a copper coin, she became a demon Jin Ji in the other world

[It's okay, it's okay. I just choked on my wine. Zhang Haohao and Du Qiuniang, right? What a coincidence. I know everything about these two things. To put it simply, they were just attracted by their beauty. Just treat it as a joke.]

It was October of the second year of the Yamato period, eight months after Du Mu passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi. Du Mu rushed to Hongzhou to take up his post, which was the place where Wang Bo wrote "Preface to the Pavilion of Prince Teng".

At that time, Shen Chuanshi was the governor of Jiangxi Province, and he appointed Du Mu as the inspector of Jiangxi militia. Since the Shen and Du families were old friends, Shen Chuanshi and Du Mu had a close relationship. Du Mu often went to Shen Chuanshi's house to listen to songs and dances, and to eat and drink.

At that time, the Shen family had a singing girl named Zhang Haohao. Du Mu was young at that time and had a good impression of her. Unfortunately, the girl had already been taken as a concubine by her master, leaving young Du Mu with only envious feelings.

Six years later, that is, in the eighth year of Yamato, Du Mu met Zhang Haohao by chance in Luoyang. At this time, Zhang Haohao had long been abandoned by her husband and became a stranger in a foreign land, making a living by selling wine.

Du Mu was deeply moved, so he wrote a long poem in five-character verse, entitled "Poem of Zhang Haohao".

【In the third year of Dahe, I assisted the former official Shen Gong in Jiangxi. Haohao was thirteen years old and was included in the music register for singing. One year later, the official moved to Xuancheng and put Haohao in the Xuancheng register again. Two years later, Shen Zhuo gave her two maids as a concubine. Two years later, I saw Haohao again in the east city of Luoyang and was saddened by the old times, so I wrote a poem to give to her.

You are a beautiful girl from Yuzhang, you are only thirteen years old. The green phoenix has a tail, and the red lotus has a tarsus.

The high pavilion leans against the sky, and the river connects to the blue sky. I will test your singing here, and I will prepare a feast for you.

The lord looked around and was surprised that he was hesitating. Wu Wa stood up and sang praises, her long skirt reflected in her low voice.

The two maids were of different heights, and just above the blue silk blouse. Panpan suddenly dropped her sleeves, and a cry of a young phoenix was heard.

The numerous strings burst at the keys, the pipes crack the round reeds. The myriad sounds cannot be driven away, they curl through the clouds.

The lord sighed again and again, saying that the world was different. He gave her a Tianma brocade and a water rhinoceros comb.

Watching the autumn waves at Longsha, and the bright moon on East Lake. Since then, every time we meet, three days is already a sparse time.

The jade-like quality becomes fuller with the full moon, and the beauty becomes more beautiful with the spring. The red lips become lighter and lighter, and the steps become more and more slow.

The banners and flags suddenly went east, and the music followed the boats. Frost withered the trees on the tower, and the sand warmed the cattails in the creek.

I let the dust settle outside my body, and I am extremely happy in front of the wine cup. I gather immortals and write satirical poems to deceive Xiangru.

I betrothed her with a jade pendant and carried her in a purple cloud carriage. The cave was closed and the sound of water was far away. The moon was high and the shadow of the toad was lonely.

Not many years have passed since then, and all the disciples of Gaoyang have left. We met again in Luocheng.

Xixi is the waiter.

Why blame me for my misery? I have a white beard when I was young. Are my friends still here? How can I be free from poverty?

After the weeping at the gatehouse, the autumn scenery of water and clouds begins. The slanting sun hangs over the withered willows, and a cool breeze blows around the corner of the seat.

I shed all my tears, and sang a short song while reading a book. 】

[Alas, Zhang Haohao can indeed be said to be the white moonlight that Lord Du loved but could not have when he was young. ]

[As for Du Qiuniang, I would like to clarify that Du Mu had no feelings for her. He just wrote this poem when he saw her in poverty in Jinling. However, this person's experience is indeed legendary.]

After the old man said this, he looked at the empty wine jar, curled his lips in dissatisfaction, and seemed unwilling to continue talking.

Shen Yuelan rolled her eyes speechlessly when she saw this, but she also knew that if you want the horse to run, you have to feed it more grass, so without waiting for the old man to speak, she took out a new jar of wine from under the table.

The old man seemed very satisfied with Shen Yuelan's behavior. He opened the jar of wine very skillfully, poured it slowly for Shen Yuelan, and then filled his own wine vessel. If one glass was not enough, he drank another one.

[Hey, stop drinking and start talking.]

[Hey, you are such a jerk, you have to let me drink some wine to moisten my throat. ]

The old man poured himself another glass of fruit wine, drank it happily, and then continued:

Du Qiuniang was a beautiful woman from Jinling. She was charming and attractive, good at singing and dancing, and able to compose poems and music. At the age of fifteen, she captured Li Qi, the governor of Zhenhai, with the song "Golden Threaded Clothes".

[I advise you not to cherish your golden dress, but to cherish your youth; when flowers are in bloom, pick them now, don’t wait until there are no more flowers to pluck.]

Li Qi took her as his concubine and let her spend a sweet time together, but the good times did not last long. Later, Li Qi led an army to fight against the court, was defeated and killed, and Du Qiuniang was sent to the harem as a slave as a criminal's family member, and continued to work as a singer and dancer.

But Du Qiuniang had worked so hard to climb to a high position, so how could she be willing to fall to this point?

Du Qiuniang, who did not believe in fate, repeated her old tricks and captured the young Emperor Xianzong of Tang with her song "Golden Threaded Clothes" once again. Her second venture was successful and she was named Concubine Qiu, and was greatly favored by Emperor Xianzong.

Even after Emperor Muzong ascended the throne, she was still trusted and was appointed as the nanny of Prince Li Cou. She enjoyed a period of glory, but how could she avoid power struggles and intrigues while being by the side of the prince?

Therefore, Du Qiuniang was soon deposed due to Li Cou's loss of power and was driven back to her hometown.

Du Mu, who was on a business trip to Jinling, was inspired to see that the once glamorous Du Qiuniang was now old and poor, and he wrote the poem "Poem of Du Qiuniang".

【Du Qiu was a woman from Jinling. At the age of fifteen, she became a concubine of Li Qi. After Qi rebelled and was destroyed, Ji entered the palace and was favored in Jingling. When Emperor Muzong ascended the throne, he appointed Qiu as the tutor of the prince. When the prince grew up, he was named Prince of Zhang. Zheng Zhu was in power and falsely accused the prime minister of wanting to remove him, accusing Wang of being the root cause. Wang was convicted and deposed, and Qiu was allowed to return to her hometown. When I passed by Jinling, I felt that she was poor and old, so I wrote a poem for her.

The water of Jingjiang River is clear and smooth, and the girls born there are as white as fat. Among them, those who are in autumn do not need to apply rouge and powder.

Laobi is a mountain cast, with a thousand pairs of eyebrows in the back garden. In autumn, he holds a jade cup and gets drunk, singing with the golden brocade dress.

Since Bi was old and rebellious, autumn has also brought red tears. The sunset crosses Wujiang River, and the green willows hang down on the Ba River bank.

When I see the emperor, I look at him with longing. There are brocade curtains hanging on the pepper-colored walls, and dragons and dragons are coiled on the mirror.

The moon is over the white jade gate, and the shadows of the osmanthus trees are cool and uneven.

The golden steps are covered with fresh dew, and the sound of the flute has stopped. The moss and thorns line the city road, and the wild geese in the South Garden are just beginning to fly.

The red-powder feathered guards were given a flag to ward off evil spirits. When they came back, they boiled the leopard fetus, but they were still full and could not eat it.

Xianchi is celebrating the rising sun, Tongque is mourning the fragrance. Leiyin is far behind, and the past is the time when flowers fall.

Yanmei gave birth to a prince, with green hair and long ties. He was given a tutor in a painting hall, and held in the arms of heaven and earth.

Tiger eyes and pearls are used to entangle the clothes, and golden rhinoceros discs are used to stabilize the curtains. Chang Yang shoots bears and tigers, and Wu Zhang plays dumb.

Gradually abandon the bamboo horse drama, and start dancing chicken. With the crown and pendants in order, attend the banquet and sit in the Yaochi.

The eyebrows are like paintings, and the spirit shines like the morning light. A one-foot-long Paulownia puppet, Jiang Chong knows he is deceiving himself.

The land of Wang You was cut, and he returned to his hometown in autumn. The ridge of the goblet brushed against the Big Dipper, and when he looked back, it was still slow.

Four dynasties and thirty years, it seems like a dream, yet it is not. I met an old official at Tongguan, his hair was like silk.

But I called for Wujiang Ferry, how could the boatman know? When I returned, the neighborhood had changed, and the garden was covered with lush grass.

The blood is spilled endlessly, who can I ask in the sky? I have only one piece of plain winter clothing, which I borrow from my neighbor at night.

I passed by Jinling yesterday and was moved to tears when I heard the news. It has been the same since ancient times, how can we predict the changes?

Xia Ji destroyed two states and fled to become Wu Chen Ji. Xi Shi went down to Gusu and chased the Chi Yi in a single boat.

The weaving room captured Wei Bao and made him the foundation of the Han Dynasty. He was mistakenly placed in the Dai register, and the two dynasties honored him as their mother.

Guangwu succeeded Gaozu, and was originally born Tanger. Shanhu defeated Gaoqi and became a maid pounding yellow rice.

Empress Xiao left Yangzhou and the Turks became Yanshi. Women are inherently unpredictable, and the literati are also unpredictable.

After shooting the hook, he called his father, and the fisherman was the king's teacher. No country needs Mencius, but some people criticize Confucius.

The Qin State issued an order to expel foreigners, and the power was handed over to Prime Minister Si. How could we know that Wei Qi's head was found in the broken coffin?

The mourning of the fallen Zhang generation, the imperial palace is in danger. The seven-leaf sable earrings are expensive, why not the enemy?

Su Wu returned alive, but Deng Tong died of starvation. Since his ideas are hard to predict, it is natural for him to change.

What is there on earth? What is there beyond the sky? What is the purpose of grasping with fingers? What is the purpose of running with feet?

Why do the ears listen? Why do the eyes see? If you don't know yourself, how can you think about anything else?

So I poured a bottle of wine and wrote a poem about Du Qiu. When I feel sad, I will chant it alone, just to give to myself.

】

[Um, Master Du seems to like writing this kind of long and boring narrative poem? ]

The old man was almost laughing at Shen Yuelan's anger. What does it mean to be long and boring? Do you understand culture? Back then, these two long poems of his were stunning!

[If Lord Du knew what the young lady said about him, he would be so angry that he would burn with anger.]

[Really? Do you think Mr. Du's talent is comparable to Mr. Bai's? ]

[Well, this is impossible. Lord Bai is such a great man, a master in the literary world. His work "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" is so brilliant. Lord Du is not bad either, but he still lacks some background.]

[That's right, so "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" may be passed down through the ages, while Mr. Du's "Poems of Du Qiuniang" and "Poems of Zhang Haohao" are not even a little bit different in terms of conception. It can be seen that Mr. Du's strengths do not lie in this. ]

[If I must say which poem Du wrote is the best, I would recommend "Red Cliff" and "Anchored at Qinhuai River".]

[Haha, these two poems are just his casual expressions of emotion, they have not been carefully polished, and they are not worthy of being put into the hall of elegance.]

[Really? But I think these two poems have the meaning of "planting flowers with care but they don't bloom, but planting willows by accident but they grow into shade", which is at least much more profound than "Poems of Du Qiuniang" and "Poems of Zhang Haohao".]

[Well, since you like it, I will sing it for you a few more times, but I cannot agree with your argument. Every kind of poetry has its own meaning. You cannot deny its value just because you don’t like it.]

[Is that so? But, does a song that no one recites still have value as a song? ]

[Alas, I was born with talents that will be useful. Even if I lose all my money, I will get it back. I believe that they will meet their own mentor.]

【good. 】

[The broken halberd sank into the sand, but the iron has not yet been corroded. I will polish it and recognize the previous dynasty. The east wind is not favorable to Zhou Lang, and the two Qiao sisters are locked up in Tongque Spring.]

[Smoke shrouds the cold water, the moon shrouds the sands, I moor at Qinhuai near a tavern at night. The merchant woman knows not the hatred of the lost country, she still sings the song of Houtinghua across the river]

Chapter 350 Mission Completed

The old guy drank three jars of fruit wine from Shen Yuelan before leaving contentedly. According to him, he actually gave Shen Yuelan some face and didn't drink to his heart's content at all.

Otherwise, he can't be dismissed with just three jars of wine.

Shen Yuelan looked down at the terrifying amount of alcohol in her space and was speechless for a moment. Although she really wanted to compete with this old guy, she was afraid that he would drink all the alcohol, considering his advanced age, so she just acquiesced.

Compared to those jars of worthless wine, she wanted to know the purpose of this old man. She still didn't understand what this old man was doing here? Was he really Du Mu himself as she thought?

Shen Yuelan wanted to investigate the matter, but it was too late. Huanyan had just sent a message saying that the work of the Time Management Bureau had been completed and they were organizing the evacuation. If she was any later, she would miss the ride.

Shen Yuelan had no choice but to leave the place immediately.

As for the Tang Dynasty, Shen Yuelan actually has many things she wants to see but hasn't seen, such as the real living conditions of contemporary people, the customs and habits of the countries surrounding the Tang Dynasty, etc. She especially wants to greet the ancestors of people like Zhu Wen and Huang Chao.

But since Hui Changluo ran out on his own initiative, Shen Yuelan had no reason to continue hanging around in the surface world. Although she was not willing to go back so early to face Shen Sushang, in order to reduce the loss of the team's equipment, Shen Yuelan decided to go back with him.

Although the inner world earned back 7 million from her, Shen Yuelan had a hunch that the petty-minded guys above would definitely learn their lesson and hold on to their purse strings tightly. It would be difficult to ask for money from them again.

When passing through the door and returning to the inner world, Shen Yuelan was left alone by Hua Liluo. She didn't say anything big, but just asked Shen Yuelan not to spread the affairs of Jiangchangyan to outsiders, as she couldn't afford to lose face.

Shen Yuelan didn't care about it. Since the elders had brought it up, she naturally had to give Hualilu this face.

[I know, I know. Really, it’s not a big deal. Why do you care so much about it, Sister Hua? ]

[Alas, it's not a big deal, but it's embarrassing. In the other world, except for the population flow of Yao Dao Ji, other departments are like stagnant ponds, and there will not be much change in tens of thousands of years. ]

[Once this story gets out, it will be a joke for thousands of years. Oh, Sister Hua, I have been wise and powerful all my life, I really can't afford to lose this person.]

Looking at Director Hua who was heartbroken in front of her, Shen Yuelan was speechless. To be honest, this matter had something to do with her. After all, she was the one who found the people from the Time Management Bureau. Although the criminal was indeed caught, it was also true that Hua Liluo was embarrassed.

Therefore, Shen Yuelan readily agreed to Hua Liluo's request. When she was going home, she suddenly remembered that Shen Huanyan and the others seemed to have seen that scene at that time. She decided to explain it to them when she got back, as gossip would not spread so easily.

Although she had only stayed in the Tang Dynasty for six or seven years, Shen Yuelan still felt as if she were in another world. Returning to her own shabby little villa again, Shen Yuelan felt so comfortable that there was no other place like home.

After everyone returned to the inner world, Xiao Yuhuan, under the order of Shen Yuelan, took Hui Changluo to report to the unit. Fan Su and Lu Zhiwei were Shen Yuelan's retainers, so they were brought into the Yuelan District by Shen Yuelan.

You heard it right, it is the Yuelan District. This is the work of that little bastard Su Xuan. It had already taken shape before Shen Yuelan went to the Tang Dynasty. Although many places are still unfinished, the scale of this place is no longer what it was before.

Shen Yuelan was puzzled by this. Didn't she say that when she went to the outer world, the flow rate in the inner world would be very slow, almost stopped? Why was the change here so big?

In response to this, Su Xuan explained that she bought the agency rights of the time flow controller from the officials of the other world. This device can speed up or slow down the flow of time in a specific area within a short period of time.

She and Shen Sushang were able to get back before Shen Yuelan all thanks to this thing. It is said that the work phones of civil servants in the other world are also installed with similar things. Only in this way can the two worlds with different time flows be connected.

[But if we continue to live in such a high-speed time zone, won’t it cause wear and tear on our lifespan and memory? ]

[Well, in the other world, who cares about life span? As long as you don’t want to die, you can live forever.]

[As for memory, it may be affected to some extent, but we have lived for so long, who would care about such a small loss? Some people may wish to forget their past.]

[And we just apply this technology to engineering construction to improve efficiency a little bit. The workers inside are basically machines, and we can control them remotely from outside. How should I put it, it's just like playing a city construction game, which is quite interesting.]

[Is that so? That's fine. I was just asking. Go ahead and do your work.]

Watching the ever-changing situation outside, Shen Yuelan couldn't help but recall the conversation she had with Su Xuan when she just came back.

Shen Yuelan was not surprised that there were such things in the inner world. If even time could not be controlled, then what was the point of calling Hua Liluo and the others the Time Management Bureau?

Su Xuan seemed very busy. After welcoming Shen Yuelan and others back, she left in a hurry, dragging Fan Su and Lu Zhiwei away with her.

It is said that because it is close to the end of the year, and the other world has finally paid the wages that were owed for several months, there are a lot of orders during this period, including orders for building houses, buying wine, armed escorts, and all kinds of orders.

Although very tired, Su Xuan looked very happy. After all, as a businessman, it is better to be busy than to have no business.

Shen Sushang, whom Shen Yuelan had always been afraid to see, was also in the welcoming team at that time. After Su Xuan left, she and Shen Yuelan chatted alone for a long time. Of course, it was more like Shen Sushang crying unilaterally rather than chatting.

It is true that she was resentful about Su Xin's death, but she was more worried that something might happen to Shen Yuelan. Su Xin was a relative, but Shen Yuelan was a closer relative than Su Xin. If she had not met Shen Yuelan, Su Xin and Su Yi would never have been born into this world.
