The song came out from the building, Wang Yan couldn't help but stop, he stood quietly outside the courtyard wall, and only after a song did he come back to his senses slightly.

"Is this Liang Zhu written by Childe?" Qian Yifeng is a talent after all, and he has heard a lot about Wang Yan's previous deeds. "Poignant and tactful, the aftermath lingers, I can't forget it!"

"What?" Liu Shun was surprised: "This is the lyrics and music written by Childe?" ”

Wang Yan ate and lived with the soldiers in the Zhongyi camp, and even trained together, which made Liu Shun slowly forget his identity as a master and forget that he was once a famous genius in Beijing.

The singing voice made Liu Shun fascinated, although he didn't understand the rhythm, but he could feel the emotions it contained, his heart was full of shock, and he admired Wang Yan incomparably.

Wang Yan didn't expect that this Liang Zhu had already spread to Nanjing, and he didn't expect that someone could sing Duan Huadie so well.

This is completely different from the feeling he heard when he was in Beijing, not only because of the singer's Wu Nong's soft words, which made people feel more emotional, but the emotions in the lyrics and songs, the poignancy and unswerving insistence on love to death, were sung.

If there is a chance, Wang Yanzhi would like to meet this person, but unfortunately there are too many things in his heart, just listen to it, forget it.

At this time, seeing that Liu Shun and Qian Yifeng were still there in amazement, looking uneasy, Wang Yan couldn't help but shake his head and walked back.

People came and went on the banks of the Qinhuai River, but Wang Yan didn't know that Liu Shun and Qian Yifeng's sighs happened to fall into the ears of a middle-aged man and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy on the side.

Both of them were dressed as literati, and they stopped when they were attracted by the singing. The young man listened to Liu Shun and Qian Yifeng's exclamations, his eyes couldn't help but light up, pointed to Wang Yan and the others, and said to the middle-aged man next to him.

Seeing Wang Yan leave at this time, Liu Shun and Qian Yifeng had to follow with a reluctant face, as if it would not be long before the singing would sound again.

When the young man saw the three of them leaving, he also hurriedly chased after him, and shouted behind Wang Yan: "This brother, please wait a minute." ”

When Wang Yan heard this, he turned around in surprise.

"This brother Tai, in the next summer!" Seeing Wang Yan stop, the young man hurriedly asked: "I heard you talking about the lyrics and music in the courtyard, it was written by Brother Tai, but I don't know that Brother Tai is Wang Yan, Wang Shiheng!" ”

Wang Yan couldn't help but feel a little curious about this young man who suddenly appeared and knew his name, but after thinking about it, since Liang Zhu could come to Nanjing, and he heard their words just now, everything was not so unusual.

"Let the little brother Taijian smile, in Changsha Wang Yan, the word Shiheng." At the moment, Wang Yan did not hide it, and generously admitted.

The young man was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, and turned around with a smug look on his face and shouted to the middle-aged man not far away: "Teacher, it's true, it's really Wang Shiheng!" ”

The middle-aged man was dissatisfied with the teenager's shouting, but he still walked over with a smile on his face. "Under Chen Zilong, Wang Shiheng's reputation, I am like thunder!"

Chen Zilong is a famous poet in the south of the Yangtze River, his reputation spreads far and wide, Wang Yan was still studying in Yuelu Academy, he had already read his masterpieces, and now he can meet by the Qinhuai River, and his heart is also very happy.

"It turned out to be Mr. Otaru, and it was justified in his late life!" , for Chen Zilong, Wang Yan is still very admired, he is a rare sober person among Nanjing officials, after being recruited by the Hongguang Dynasty, even more than 30 books of outspoken state affairs, is a rare capable minister with both ability and political integrity.

Wang Yan saw that he was a master and apprentice, dignified in appearance, and a disciple of a saint, so he had the heart to make friends, and immediately pointed to the two people around him and introduced: "This is Liu Shun, a person from Cangzhou, this is Qian Yifeng, Ziyun, a native of Qingzhou." ”

At that moment, a few people saw each other again.

Several people stood by the river and talked, and Wang Yan learned that Chen Zilong was forced to resign and retire because he criticized the imperial court for not wanting to make progress and favored the national policy of Jiangnan, and was forced to resign and go into hiding, and he was depressed.

The reason why Xia Wanchun is so interested in Wang Yan is because he has been loyal and righteous since he was a child, advocating honor, and likes to study military affairs, Wang Yan's deeds coincide with it, and a trace of admiration was born in the young man's heart.

"I went to see the newspaper of Chaozhongdi, and after the change in Qingzhou, there was no news of Shiheng, and I sighed for a while, thinking that there was one less person with lofty ideals in the world." Chen Zilong sighed: "I don't want Shiheng to fight thousands of miles, appear in Suizhou, and kill the traitor Xu Dingguo, it's really a national soldier." It is a great blessing to meet Shiheng today. ”

Chen Zilong's experience is somewhat similar to Wang Yan's, he is also depressed, and his many admonitions have not been adopted, and now he has resigned from his official position, and his mood is even more uncomfortable, Xia Wanchun originally pulled him out to relax, and now he saw that he was talking with Wang Yan very happily, and his heart was naturally happy, so he immediately proposed: "Teacher, why don't we find a place to sit down and talk with Brother Wang, okay?" ”

"That's what I mean!" Wang Yan nodded, and Liu Shun and Qian Yifeng naturally had no opinions.

"In that case, why don't you go to this Meixiang Building?" Chen Zilong smiled and pointed to the courtyard.

This Meixianglou is the Qinglou of Youming on the bank of the Qinhuai River, and Li Xiangjun, one of the eight Yan, lives here, but now she is in love with Hou Fangyu, one of the four sons of Jiangnan, and she is not easy to see people.

Meixiang Lou is also different from the general Qinglou, its owner Li Zhenli is righteous and bold, and knows the elegance, so the guests are mostly literati and ink writers.

As the leading celebrity in Jiangnan, Chen Zilong was also a frequent visitor to these Fengyue places, and famous prostitutes were willing to associate with these celebrities in order to enhance their fame.

But since the situation in the Ming Dynasty deteriorated, Chen Zilong was worried about state affairs, and he had not appeared by the Qinhuai River for a long time.

Li Zhenli is Li Xiangjun's stepmother, but she is actually only ten years older than her, she was also a famous prostitute who moved Qin Huai when she was young, and now she is just in her thirties, and the years have not taken away her beauty, but it has given her a different style.

Liu Shunsheng has not entered the Qinglou, but all he met were vulgar fans in small places, where had he seen the beautiful woman on the bank of the Qinhuai River, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, as soon as Li Zhenli appeared, he looked at her with a pair of eyes, which was simply shocking.

Wang Yan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw him, and hurriedly poked him with his arm to pull his gaze back.

Li Zhenli came out to greet with a smile, and quickly glanced at the few people in front of the door, and wondered in her heart, Long is a famous person for a while, and there are many celebrities in Shilin who associate with him, but the friends brought this time are quite normal except for Wang Yan and Qian Yifeng, why did he bring a little doll and a pig brother?

Of course, she was just stunned in her heart, so she smiled and led everyone into the door.

Wang Yan and others followed behind her and walked into the Meixiang Building, which was different from the warblers and Yanyan in other green buildings, and everyone was more like walking into a forest garden, with small bridges and flowing water, carved galleries and paintings, full of elegance.

From people to scenery, where has Liu Shun seen such a green building, he couldn't help but look around along the way, and was glared at by Wang Yan, so he restrained himself a little and walked honestly.

After a while, everyone was led by Li Zhenli to an elegantly furnished room and sat down.

She wanted to recruit a few geisha to accompany everyone to recite poems and paintings, and help with wine, but Chen Zilong refused, and because everyone had had dinner, Chen Zilong only asked Li Zhenli to ask someone to prepare some simple tea and pastries for them.

Liu Shun, who was thinking about seeing the world, couldn't help but be disappointed, but he could only express his dissatisfaction in his heart, and he had to sit upright on the surface, not daring to lose Wang Yan's face.

When everything was ready, Li Zhenli told her that there would be an event in Meixianglou tonight, and she would invite everyone to come over at that time, so she said goodbye and left.

"Shiheng came to Nanjing this time, there must be something important, right?" Chen Zilong picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Don't hide it, sir, I came here this time, and I really have something to do." Wang Yan nodded, and said with a heavy voice: "Li Chuang's army was defeated, the Qing army has entered Henan, and the land north of the river is exposed to the Qing army's military peak, but the Shi Pavilion Department has not made a countermeasure, I am very worried, so I came to the south to find Lord Zuo Maodi, and wanted to contact the courtiers and prepare for defense as soon as possible." ”

"The Cabinet Department is ambitious and talented, and can be a direct minister, not a pillar!" After Wang Yan finished speaking, Xia Wanchun ate a snack and said.

Hearing this, Chen Zilong couldn't help glaring at him, Xia Wanchun knew that he was talkative, and he annoyed the master by arguing about Shoufu, so he hurriedly lowered his head.

Chen Zilong saw that he was still well-behaved, so he didn't reprimand him, but continued: "Although it is gratifying to be defeated by the captive, it is really terrifying!" Those who have not been able to seek me are in their ears, and now they are destroyed, and it is not the blessing of Jiangnan! We should have taken precautions as soon as possible, what Shi Heng said is very true! ”

"The princes of the DPRK and China are busy with party disputes, and the Nandu has been established for a year, which has led to the Great Tragedy Case and the Tong Concubine Case, and recently a fake prince has emerged, Donglin and Ma Fu are busy with internal friction, I am afraid that Brother Wang has found Lord Zuo, and it will be difficult to support it alone!" Xia Wanchun didn't be honest for a while, and then opened his mouth again.

Xia Wanchun, who was only fourteen years old, could say such a thing, which made Wang Yan very surprised, Chen Zilong on the side could only smile when he saw this, obviously he was also quite helpless about this restless disciple, it seemed that the young Xia Wanchun often showed such wisdom and talent beyond ordinary people.

Wang Yan also knew that what he said was true, "I also know that the situation is erosive, but if we don't say it, will we sit back and wait for the Qing army to go south?" ”

"What Shi Heng said is very true, no matter what the situation is, as courtiers, we should do our best and not escape." Chen Zilong nodded. "At this point, I am not as good as Shiheng."

"The teacher has more connections in the court, and he can help Brother Wang contact some ministers more and play His Majesty together." Xia Wanchun suggested again.

"As it should be!" This time, Chen Zilong didn't give him a look, and nodded directly.

"Then there will be Mr. Law." Wang Yan hurriedly thanked.

The situation is like this, and the only way to do their best is to obey the destiny of heaven, and at that moment a few people discussed which reliable people in the DPRK and the central government were, and agreed to go to the next day to persuade them one by one.

After a few people finished discussing countermeasures, Li Zhenli happened to come over again and asked them to take a seat in the lobby. It turns out that since Li Xiangjun is no longer in the meeting, she has cultivated a newcomer, today is her first time to perform qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, if you can get the guidance of a famous person like Chen Zilong, she will definitely become famous in one fell swoop.
