Jiangnan, moonlit night, painted boats, veils.

The clothes outside the tent are scattered, the plain green robe is pressed against the gorgeous costumes, the simplicity and beauty intermingle in a strange harmony, the breathing in the tent overlaps, and the figures are entangled, as if they were alone.

Xia Jing hadn't sung in a play for a long time, and because he had accomplished a big event the day before yesterday, he was in a good mood, so he made an exception and went on stage to have fun.

Just after that, he was already a high-ranking and powerful person. He climbed to this position and secretly did some unspeakable things. The person above him had already explicitly and secretly not allowed him to marry, but he turned a blind eye to what happened outside. Just let him go, after all, the largest brothel in the capital is one of his many properties, and it is impossible to really stop his fun.

There is a degree of relaxation and relaxation, and that gentleman can be regarded as a wise gentleman in political affairs. This idea is very easy to control.

As for the other protagonist, Zhou Yi, he is not a romantic person by nature, and has been a widower since his first wife died more than ten years ago.

The life of a widower is easy to say, and it is not easy to say that it is not easy. He is in his prime, and if he really wants to think, it will be fatal if he is not relieved. When I feel uncomfortable, I will hide my name and go to the inconspicuous secret door for a walk.

But daily affairs are busy, and that is only very occasionally.People in the officialdom, although there is no order to prohibit going to that kind of place, they always look bad when they are found out.

As for why he didn't continue with a wife, there was a reason for that.Over the years, he has been promoted step by step in the officialdom, and his disciples are all over the court. Of course, many people wanted to help him as a mediator, but he refused them all.

One is that after so many years of ups and downs in the officialdom, although he has a group of followers, he has also made a lot of enemies. Some of these people are high-ranking and powerful, some are rich, and some are royal relatives. The higher his status , The greater the influence, the more you stand on the precipice. One day, if the person above is not pleasing to the eye, or is overthrown by political opponents, without dragging the family, it will be less entangled, and at the same time One less chance of being caught by the opponent.

These two things are related to the deceased wife.

In short, he made up his mind not to continue. Later, people around him saw that he really didn't have this thought, and gradually stopped mentioning it. Marriage between a man and a woman is always beautiful if it is consensual, a twisted melon. He is not sweet.

Recently, because of the Jiangnan Enke incident, he was ordered to go south, but instead of being the chief examiner like in previous years, he took the title of imperial envoy to monitor the atmosphere of the examination hall.

This year's chief examiner is Xia Jing, his deadly rival in court.If he is said to be the head of the clean stream in the dynasty, then the other party is a downright dirty stream, corrupt officials and treacherous officials in the eyes of the common people. Since he took power, I don’t know how many people’s anointing and anointing the party has seized and how many upright officials have been wronged.

It's a pity that the one above played a good trick, instead of convicting him, he acquiesced in the existence of this situation. After thinking about it a little more, he has become famous all these years, and Xia Jing may have been cultivated by his superiors to restrain him. Emperor Heart skills can be seen from this.

But then again, His Majesty is neither militaristic nor immoral. Compared with previous dynasties, he is already a good emperor. There is no partiality in the church, and the opinions that should be listened to will be listened to. This is how the current Dasheng Dynasty's scene of peace in the world is created.

He and Jinshang have also supported each other to get here. He can go to the present without the support from Jinshang. Now that the overall situation is settled, he has begun to take precautions, and rifts have gradually arisen.

Since ancient times, being with a king is like being with a tiger. The king wants his minister to die, and the minister has to die. This time Jiangnan Enke pointed Xia Jing as the examiner, which is basically a reminder to him today.

But even if he knew the meaning behind it, he still had to take the risk to ask for an order to go south, not for anything else, but to study hard for the officials for ten years. opportunities for them to emerge.

Fortunately, I gave him this face today, and with a wave of his hand, he was given the title of supervisory envoy, and ordered him to strictly check the atmosphere in the examination room to prevent fraud.

No, he came to Jiangnan after Xia Jing, and this year's Enke examination room is located in Yangzhou.

Three points of the world are moonlit nights, and two points are rogues. Yangzhou.This famous capital of Huaizuo can be called a must in the south of the Yangtze River.The wind in Yangzhou, the moon in Yangzhou, the delicacies in Yangzhou, and the beauties in Yangzhou are really endless Yangzhou dreams and endless springs.

Two first-rank officials came from the capital, both of whom are famous people around today. The well-known officials from the south of the Yangtze River gathered in Yangzhou in a hurry, sweeping the couch to welcome them. , Daotai, weaving, prefect, one is all here.

So many dozens of people are big figures in the south of the Yangtze River who can cause changes in all walks of life by stomping their feet. In front of Zhou Yi and Xia Jing, there is only a toast and a smile on their faces.The cliques were also very even, half of them were former disciples of Zhou Yi, and the other half were people from Xia Jing's side, entertaining and playing, reciting poems, singing and dancing, it was very lively for several days.

But on the surface it looks calm, but the dark tide is already raging behind the scenes.

Xia Jing's hands and feet were very fast, and they began to send letters to make arrangements while they were still on the way south. Even if Zhou Yi tried to restrain Xia Jing himself, it would be hard to beat with two fists and four hands.

Fortunately, not all the officials in Jiangnan are willing to join forces with Xia Jing. There are many people who become officials once in ten years and want to ask for orders to do something for the people.

As soon as Xia Jing made a move, Zhou Yi would get wind of it in a short time and make timely arrangements to counterattack. In this way, you came and I went for several days, and no one took advantage.

The day before yesterday, Xia Jing used some tricks to win over an important person from Zhou Yi's place. With the help of this person, Zhou Yi could not see anything wrong even if he stood in the examination room on the day of the scientific examination. The matter went very well. Secretly, successfully concealed from Zhou Yi's eyes and ears.

After the matter was done, Xia Jing started to eat, drink and have fun without any burden after setting up the scientific research, waiting for Enke's day to come.

Zhou Yi didn't catch the wind, and was kept in the dark, but just in case, he still tried his best to follow Xia Jing every day, keeping a close eye on him.

This staring revealed the problem.

Xia Jing went for an outing, and Zhou Yi followed, with a smirk, you come and I recite poems, point out places of interest, and if you don’t know where, you really think that the teacher came out to play with his favorite students.

Xia Jing went to drink Huajiu, and Zhou Yi followed, but this drinking Huajiu is not the kind of real|gun|real| home run, accompanied by several local officials, Xia Jing will not be like this, Most of Yangzhou is Qingguan. The Yang|zhou|thin|horse cultivated since childhood is exquisite in body, beautiful in color and art. The one who can entertain Xia Jing is really the top lean horse in Yangzhou city.

However, Xia Jing himself is also the best-looking boy. Zhou Yi saw him when he was a teenager. Thinking that 20 years later, that stubborn, intelligent young man will become the current bastard who hides a knife in his smile and kills people without blood.

Most of the literati are flirtatious, so there is an allusion to the so-called "flirty talented man". Although Xia Jing has become a treacherous minister who flatters his superiors and bullies his inferiors, he was killed like a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge in the imperial examination back then. He is talented and practical, but he is not as good as Zhou Yi. He directly broke the record of the Dasheng Dynasty's scientific examination in Sanyuan Jidi. climbing.

On the wine table, he was drinking and drinking, stealing incense and jade, and he was the well-deserved focus of the audience. In contrast, Zhou Yi seemed much more restrained. He didn't even touch him, even Xia Jing openly joked that Liu Xiahui's style of sitting in his arms was "hidden disease", and he didn't make any excuses.

Anyway, his purpose is to stare at Xia Jing to prevent him from making any small movements, and just ignore the rest.

The next day, Xia Jing chartered another boat, this time he did not recite poems, nor did he look for a thin horse to accompany him. He began to listen to operas, but this was Zhou Yi's preference. Everyone has a hobby, Zhou Yi's biggest hobby. It's just listening to the show.

In private, he not only listens to operas, he is also willing to write plays when he is interested in his spare time. Dasheng's number one talented man writes works of his own. The popular plays at the moment are like "Happy in the Hall", "A Thousand Golden Joy", "Mandarin Duck" "Wrong" is all written by him, but no one else knows about it. After he finished writing, he pretended to be a "gentleman in Lanzhong" and secretly gave it to the troupe master for rehearsals. As a result, the book became popular after writing. Man Dasheng does not know how many opera fanciers regret not being able to find out the true face of the "gentleman in Lanzhong".

The actors and actresses on the stage babbled and sang to their heart's content, picking up the most classic lines in each book. After singing "Farewell My Concubine" and "Shiro Visits His Mother", it was a song from his "Mandarin Duck Wrong". "Dragon and Phoenix Bring Prosperity" tells the story of two wives who had to give birth in a dilapidated temple at the same time 20 years ago because of heavy rain blocking their way. They gave birth to a boy and a girl, but they picked up the wrong baby in the rush. By mistake, they got acquainted at the Lantern Festival and made a private decision for life. After a series of dramas such as obstruction by the two parties' families and mutual recognition, the lovers finally got married, and the wrong embrace of the mandarin duck became a true marriage. "Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Prosperity" is the last part of this book, which is about entering the bridal chamber.

Zhou Yi under the stage was gradually fascinated by what she heard, and entered a dreamlike realm. She didn't even know when Xia Jing, who she had been staring at, left, let alone when the tea in the cup was adulterated.

When he woke up completely, the scene had become unmanageable.

He rubbed his hangover head, then looked at the person next to the pillow, his heart skipped a beat, trying to recall everything that happened before, and then sighed heavily, he wouldn't even recognize this face when the other person was burned to ashes!

Still careless, how could it be him last night?Even if he could accept any actor, how could it be this person!
