Zhao Han chatted with Zhang Jiayu about Chen Zizhuang, and his words showed a solicitation.
Zhang Jiayu suddenly said: "Mr. Qiutao has a younger brother named Chen Zisheng, maybe he can be recruited first to work."
"How talented is his younger brother?" Zhao Han asked.
Zhang Jiayu replied: "He is good at piano and poetry. His piano skills are excellent, and there is no one in the south of the Lingnan. He also composed many piano songs, all of which have lingering sounds."
It turned out to be a musician.
Zhang Jiayu also said: "Chen Zisheng has a close friend named Kuang Lu. This person is a peerless talent. He knows everything about poetry, calligraphy, rhythm, gold and stone, military art, archery, riding and archery He also went to Macau and learned western culture. Yi's firecrackers and fencing skills."
"Why haven't I heard of this person?" Zhao Han asked.
Zhang Jiayu said: "Kuang Lu is a bohemian man who despises etiquette and is currently seeking refuge in Guangxi."
"Why did you escape to Guangxi?" Zhao Han asked.
Zhang Jiayu said: "Four years ago, Kuang Lu rode a drunken horse and went to the Lantern Night Market. Huang Xi, the magistrate of Nanhai County, also happened to come out to appreciate the lanterns. Kuang Lu did not avoid the ceremony of honor, and even wrote a poem on the spot: "Riding a donkey by accident According to the Huayin decree, if you lose a horse, you will be replaced with the old man'. Huang Xi, the county magistrate, hated him because of this, and made things difficult for the Kuang family in every possible way, and Kuang Lu left his hometown to avoid disaster."
"Haha, what a magistrate who exterminated the family," Zhao Han said with a smile, "What else is interesting about this person?"
Zhang Jiayu said: "Kuang Lu was able to write poetry at the age of five, and he took the Daoist test at the age of fifteen. He answered the paper in five scripts: Zhen, Xing, Cao, Zhuan and Li. At the end of the day, Kuang Lu laughed wildly and walked away."
Zhao Han shook his head and laughed: "What a crazy student, he dared to offend the envoy at the age of fifteen."
In fact, Kuang Lu's deeds in Guangdong are just the beginning.
After he was retaliated by the magistrate, he traveled all over China rather than leaving his hometown to avoid disaster. Beizhi, Nanzhi, Shandong, Zhejiang, Huguang, Jiangxi, Guangxi half of China was traveled by Kuang Lu, recording mountains and rivers, ethnic customs, rare birds and animals, and interesting anecdotes along the way.
At this moment, Kuang Lu is dating a female chieftain of the Yao ethnic group in Guangxi, and has also become the female chieftain's clerk.
Such a wild and unrestrained talent, immediately went to Nanjing to offer advice to save the country after the fall of Beijing.
Later, he defended Guangzhou for ten months, and the city of Guangzhou was broken because of the traitors colluding with the enemy and offering the city.
Seeing that the defeat was irretrievable, Kuang Lu took off her armor, went home and put on a Confucian shirt, holding the famous piano "Lvqitai", and walked to the street laughing wildly.
He collided with the Manchu and Qing cavalry, and the Qing soldiers wanted to kill him. He hugged the piano and laughed: "What is this? Can you play with each other?" The Qing soldiers also laughed, and regarded him as a lunatic.
Seeing that the Qing soldiers did not kill him, Kuang Lu went home again and kept her life collection by her side. Playing the piano while singing, holding the piano and dying of hunger strike.
His eldest son, Kuang Hong, led more than a thousand rebels, and died in a battle with Qing troops in the eastern suburbs of Guangzhou.
Zhang Jiayu said: "This person has great ambitions, and he has become dissolute only because of the corruption of the world. The town's administration is clear and bright. If Kuang Lu returns to his hometown, he is likely to be willing to serve him."
"If this person returns to his hometown, let him go to the General Military Mansion to listen to him, and Chen Zisheng will also invite Ji An to listen to him." Zhao Han nodded.
Now Jiangxi officials account for more than 90% of the officials from the three provinces.
This is not a good phenomenon, and the promotion of officials from Hunan and Guangdong must be accelerated. But Zhao Han couldn't destroy the promotion system, so he went to Guangzhou this time to search for Cantonese scholars like Zhang Jiayu, and brought them back to the General Military Mansion as a secretary.
On the other side of Hunan, there were also a few scholars who were recruited by Zhao Han to be secretaries because of their outstanding performance.
First, through these secretaries, Hunan and Guangdong affairs can be handled more accurately. Second, it can also be released in the future to increase the number of middle and high-level officials in the two provinces.
This Kuang Lu was reserved by Zhao Han.
In fact, Kuang Lu was already on his way back to his hometown at this time. He had been away from home for four years and missed his wife and children. It was the female chieftain who was pestering him, reluctant to let him go, and stayed for another month
After Pan Qimei finished washing, she was led to the bedroom by the maid, but she didn't see Zhao Han return to the room for a long time.
She waited left and right, and was tired from the journey, so she fell asleep on the bed without knowing it.
"Yeah!"
I don't know how long it took, but the sound of opening the door woke Pan Qimei from her sleep.
She quickly sat up and wiped the drool from her mouth.
Zhao Han took off his coat, threw it away casually, and said with a smile, "You don't even change your clothes when you take a shower."
Pan Qimei changed into a set of underwear, but she was still wearing her wedding attire, which had to be taken off by the newlyweds together.
Zhao Han came over and was very interested in her hair accessories.He said: "The whole of Jiangxi is gradually becoming like this, and Guangdong will do the same in a few years."
These entourages dispersed separately.
Zhao Han took Pan Qimei and went straight to the inner house of the General Army Mansion.
Fei Rulan went to a girls' school to be a teacher for half a day, and stayed at home to take care of various affairs. She had already received the news of Zhao Han's return, and stood at the gate of the courtyard to welcome her with her children and servants.
"Husband!"
Fei Rulan was full of joy, and then saw Pan Qimei beside Zhao Han.
Zhao Han took out a silver hairpin from his pocket: "I saw them in Guangzhou, and they looked good, so I bought a few. Xiaomei and Rumei also have them."
"It's so beautiful." Fei Rulan held the silver hairpin and said with a smile, "This is my younger sister."
Zhao Han introduced: "Pan Yao, Pan Qimei, she doesn't speak Chinese very much."
On the way, Pan Qimei learned some more, and still remembered the etiquette taught by her husband. She bowed low and said, "Sister Wanfu!"
Fei Rulan didn't show jealousy at all, she took Pan Qimei's hand and said, "Come in and talk."
Boys and girls have fast metabolism.
?Since she won the beauty pageant, Pan Qimei has not done rough work for a long time, and the calluses in her hands are gradually disappearing. Fei Rulan didn't feel anything strange when she held her hand.
Zhao Han picked up the gun and walked to the courtyard: "Little sister is studying today?"
"It's a holiday and I went to the Mathematical Society. There seems to be some kind of math party today." Fei Rulan said.
Zhao Han smiled and said, "It's good that she has something to do."
Fei Rulan said: "Sister, do you live here, or do you clean up and go into the yard?"
"Let's live here first, she doesn't understand the language, learn Chinese first before speaking," Zhao Han put down the gun, and hugged Fei Rulan from behind, "Miss, do you miss me?"
Fei Rulan's heart felt sweet, and she blushed and said, "Let go, my sister and the servants are here."
"Don't be afraid, let them watch." Zhao Han felt tired for a while, but he was actually afraid that Fei Rulan would be jealous.
Pan Qimei smiled, and then looked around the yard, thinking that a row of chicken coops could be placed in the corner of the yard, otherwise it would be a waste of space.
