    After having sex for a while, the lovesickness was temporarily relieved, and after the two of them took a bath and rearranged their clothes, they could really sit down and talk.

    Tang Song slowly sipped the tea made by Shangguan Wan'er, "I didn't bother to ask just now, how come you have time to leave the palace today and come to meet me by such a coincidence?".

    "Thanks to Prince Liang, I have been quite relaxed these days." Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Tang Song meaningfully as she spoke, but it seemed that what Prince Liang did really made her happy, and even her eyebrows  There is a bit of flying spirit between them. This spirit combined with the amorous feelings of those who have just had sex is a true portrayal of "there is a beautiful person, graceful and clear" in the "Book of Songs".

    Isn¡¯t the King of Liang Wu Sansi? Since the last time he recommended Song Zhiwen as the chief examiner, but caused a scandal that shocked the world, he has been sitting there for a long time. What did he do this time?

    Seeing Tang Song¡¯s confusion, Shang Huan Wan¡¯er told the whole story with a light smile.  A few days ago, Wu Sansi temporarily left the supervision of the Sanyang Villa in Songshan Mountain and returned to Beijing. Then the Holy God Emperor had a beautiful and fair-skinned male favorite. It was also thanks to this that Shangguan Wan'er had more  Some free time. For example, Japan now has a holiday once every ten days. Officials have a holiday. The empress also gave herself a holiday. She ignored any political affairs and went to have fun with her little boy.

    When saying this, Shangguan Wan'er kept paying attention to Tang Song's face. After seeing that there was nothing unusual about it, she revealed a smile with a hidden meaning.

    Although Tang Song didn't understand why Shangguan Wan'er was laughing, he didn't care.  After all, Wu Zetian was not an ordinary woman. Among the two previous male favorites, Feng Xiaobao, who was a medicine seller, was also a fake monk who later changed his name to Xue Huaiyi. He was deposed by Zi Gong.  Another dishonest doctor, Shen, also lost his favor because he had a fight with Xue Huaiyi in full view of the imperial city.  One of the two male favorites died, and the other was abandoned like a worn out shoe. Wu Zetian's side was empty for a while. Isn't it normal for someone to fill in at this time?

    Tang Song didn¡¯t care about this newcomer¡¯s appearance. What he was feeling and even wary of was Wu Sansi¡¯s vision and ability to seize opportunities.  So many people in the whole court were eagerly counting on Wu Zetian's favor every day, but it happened that he could make the most accurate blow at the most suitable time.  Just looking at Wu Zetian's enthusiasm for this new male favorite, it is known that Wu Sansi is indeed going to get a big win, and it is expected that the decline caused by the Song Dynasty incident will be swept away.

    After drinking all the tea in the cup, Tang Song sighed softly, "Wu Sansi can't be ignored."

    The smile on Shangguan Wan'er's face never stopped, and her mouth was also ridiculing like Tang Song before, "Prince Liang really worked hard this time, and it's hard for him to find such a person. Recently, the palace  People often say that Pan Yue was so beautiful in the history books of the Six Dynasties that women at that time would throw fruit into the car, but after all, there is a layer between them on the paper. It is really hard to imagine how beautiful Pan Yue was.  Such a situation, it didn¡¯t dawn on me until I met Zhang Langjun in person.¡±

    Tang Song is familiar with the allusion of throwing fruit into the car. It tells that there was Pan Yue in the Western Jin Dynasty in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. Pan An, who was known to later generations, was so beautiful that he was so beautiful that he arrived in the capital Luoyang at a young age.  He quickly became famous in the imperial capital, attracting women and girls who all wanted to see him. He was surrounded when he went out on the streets.  When traveling by car, women would often throw fruits at his car in order to attract his attention. Because there were so many women doing this, the fruits were thrown so much that the car could not fit in them, so the name "Throwing Fruit Ying" came to be.  car" allusion.

    No matter how evil Pan An looks, at least in the history books, he is the most beautiful man in thousands of years.  Hearing that the palace people actually compared Wu Zetian's new appearance to his own, it aroused Tang Song's interest in gossip, "You must have met him. Is this person really like Pan Yue?"

    "I've never seen what Pan Yue looks like, but people in Changzong Palace say that he has a face like a lotus. If he can be described like this, you can imagine the beauty of his appearance." At this point, Shangguan Wan'er didn't know what she thought of.  It was extremely rare that he chuckled like a little girl, "Speaking of which, the most eye-catching thing about him is his good complexion that makes the ladies in the palace envious. He does not need to apply powder, he is naturally white."

    The Tang Dynasty inherited some of the aesthetic values ??of the Six Dynasties. In addition to facial features, men were also required to have white skin. The whiter, the more beautiful.  That's why it's fashionable for men to apply pink hairpins. Young people like Karamatsu with slightly darker skin who refuse to use powder are really rare. It's not an exaggeration to say that they are an outlier.

    It turned out to be a standard pretty boy. After Tang Song smiled, he gave up. Just when he was about to say something else, he suddenly remembered the comments made by the palace officials about this new male favorite's "face like a lotus flower" and what Shangguan Wan'er mentioned casually.  Name, the newly opened conversation suddenly stopped, "You said this person's name is Zhang Changzong?"

    "Yes, he is from Yifeng, Dingzhou, Hebei Province. He is a brother of Liu, so your Majesty calls him Zhang Liulang. The whole palace calls him by this name."

    You monster!  ThisHow did the most famous facial expression in history appear so early?  And the trajectory of emergence has also changed accordingly.  According to normal historical development, Zhang Changzong should have entered Princess Taiping's palace first, and then presented it to Wu Zetian from Taiping after Xue Huaiyi's death for her to relieve her boredom. Why is it now that Wu Sansi presented it to the emperor.

    Is it possible that Taiping secretly left Beijing for Yangzhou in the name of visiting Chang'an a few days ago and missed Zhang Changzong?  All in all, it seems that current history is slowly becoming more and more different from the original history.

    These thoughts just passed by in a flash. After the gossip, Tang Song threw aside the famous celebrity Zhang Changzong. After all, although this person later interfered in political affairs and caused trouble in the court, it was because of his old age before Wu Zetian died.  What he had to do after losing control of the court was actually an attempt to release the Zhang Changzong brothers to continue to control the government.

    Judging from Wu Zetian¡¯s current physical condition, Zhang Changzong is unlikely to be successful. As for favoring handsome men, Tang Song thinks this has nothing to do with him!

    After talking about this gossip, before getting down to business, Karamatsu's stomach began to growl. It was almost noon, and he was really hungry after all the heavy consumption he had done before.

    The old eunuch was the only one guarding the secret nest that Shangguan Wan'er had set up at some point. The other kitchen women and rough girls had been sent out long ago. In fact, there was not even a cook.  , it is impossible to eat here.

    Putting on men's clothing and a carved beard-covered hat, Shangguan Wan'er followed Tang Song out of this seemingly ordinary little house.

    Although she was a little hungry, Shangguan Wan'er seemed to cherish the feeling of walking side by side with Tang Song among the crowd on the streets of Luoyang, so she deliberately slowed down her steps.

    After Tang Song understood what she was thinking, he didn't look for a place nearby. From Nanshi to North City, the two walked side by side in the streets and alleys full of fireworks, and finally walked into the wine shop that Tang Song and He Zhizhang loved to go to before.  .

    After more than half a year, the wine shop is still the same as before, with an elegant environment and mellow wine. Although it is not very popular due to the remoteness of the place, it has become a favorite gathering place for nearby scholars.

    This place is actually a microcosm of Luoyang Shilin, but if anything happens in Vaseline, no matter how big or small, it will definitely be discussed here.

    Speaking of which, the scholars in the capital of the Tang Dynasty loved to hang out in wine shops, just like people in the later Qing Dynasty loved teahouses. The custom made these wine shops and teahouses the best news distribution centers at the moment.

    With great force, Qian Tangsong took Shangguan Wan'er and sat in the elegant pavilion separated by a screen. This was also the seat he and He Zhizhang were familiar with before.

    After the food and wine were set and the waiter left, Shangguan Wan'er took off her carved beard hat and was about to speak when she saw Tang Song wave his hand gently.

    Shangguan Wan'er listened carefully and saw that the scholars on the seats outside the screen were talking loudly about the changes in Jiangnan Scholars.

    Since Lu Xiangxian succeeded Li Mingyu as the governor of Yangzhou, the turbulent trend that swept through Jiangnan Shilin gradually subsided.  Although it has been some time since these news reached the capital, it is still a hot topic of discussion among scholars in Luoyang when they gather together.

    There is nothing new in these discussions. What makes Karamatsu excited is their sighs.

    "Is it possible that the governor of a place like Yangzhou, which is the richest place in the world, is given for nothing? The Huainan Road Observation Ambassador is even more incredible. He is ranked in the feudal territory. Just like this, these two figures were wiped out. If it weren't for Mr. Xiaolu who had indeed received the seal  Yangzhou, who can believe it, who dares to believe it? This time, Jiangnan Shilin is really agitated, exhaling and raising eyebrows!"

    The scholar who spoke outside sighed with a strong sense of drunkenness, "Such a thing is really unthinkable in my country in the north. Hey, if there is no such thing as Jiangnan, I still don't realize it. Now it seems that the north  Shilin looks increasingly lifeless."

    "If we wait a little longer and wait for the rural tribute students from all over the world to come to Beijing one after another, we will really be incompetent with the Jiangnan people! Compared with Chen Yizhe, the master of Shuitian Pavilion in Yangzhou, we have those famous families in the north who have a long and rich collection of books.  The gentry really fell behind. Seeing the Jiangnan gentry gradually becoming more vibrant and faintly prosperous, they said, "Hey, don't tell me, don't tell me."  I just hope that the Hongwen Seal Society can open to the imperial capital as soon as possible, so that we can see the elegance of Shuitian Jingzang."

    The vitality of Shilin in the south of the Yangtze River and the stagnant water of Shilin in the north, and the difference in behavior between Chen Yizhe, who has recently become famous all over the world, and the Fourth Family. These real contrasts are indisputable, but after this discussion, there was originally some  The bustling wine shop suddenly became a little deserted.

    It wasn't until someone brought up the latest "Qingyin Hongwen Bimonthly" from the south, and the scholars began to criticize the poems of the rising stars from the south of the Yangtze River published in the magazine, that the atmosphere in the wine shop became lively again, and became more and more intense.  It was extremely lively."There is no first place in literature, no poetry is clear. What these words mean is that it is difficult to evaluate the quality of poetry, so it is easy to cause controversy."

    But putting aside these controversies about a certain piece of work, it is an indisputable fact that the Jiangnan rookies recorded in the magazine have risen to fame, and such things are really rare.

    Due to inconvenient transportation and underdeveloped means of communication, the dissemination of information in ancient times has always been slow. Especially in the scholarly literary world, the accumulation of a person's reputation, apart from the factors of becoming famous after the imperial examination, basically relied on word of mouth.  It often lasts a very long time.  This resulted in the fact that even though young scholars were very talented, due to their age and short time, their reputation was mostly limited to one place, and it was difficult to even expand beyond the states and counties, let alone spread throughout the world.

    Nowadays, because of the "Qingyin Hongwen Bimonthly" published by Hongwen Yinshe, many young scholars from the south of the Yangtze River whose influence was previously limited to one state or one county have suddenly become famous. Their works are even talked about in the holy cities far away from the south of the Yangtze River.  Dao, seeing this, how can the Jiangbei scholars maintain a normal mind?

    ?????????????? Everyone who comes to this wine shop is basically young scholars who have not yet become famous. Although they feel sad, they can't do anything about it.  After all, promoting scholars and rewarding underachievers are things that only local female leaders or members of the Wenzong family are qualified to do. What can they do if the superiors do nothing but let them wait to be rewarded and promoted?

    Take a look at "Qingyin Hongwen Bimonthly". Behind every new talent there must be a local celebrity who strongly recommends it. And behind these people, there are Qingyin Publishing House and Hongwen Printing Publishing House, which are the most elite of Jiangnan Shilin.  No effort will be spared to advance backward.

    Comparing people with each other can make people angry. Now, compared with the Jiangbei Shilin, the rising path of the young scholars in the Jiangnan Shilin can be regarded as a smooth road.

    First it was pantothenic acid, and then it was inevitable to complain when it came to oneself. As for the target of the complaint, it goes without saying that it was the old Jiangbei clan headed by the Fourth Family. After all, they had been a well-deserved important town and giant in the Northern Shilin for many years.  They have been famous for many years, but now they have not done anything they should do, especially after comparing the changes in the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, but let the young scholars in the north have no resentment towards them?

    Hearing that the topics outside gradually focused on this point, Tang Song withdrew his attention, and Shangguan Wan'er also turned around and smiled slightly, "The scholars are resentful, and the general situation has been established. Your return to Luoyang is indeed the right time.  hour"

    When Tang Song heard this, he just smiled slightly and said nothing. He just raised the wine bottle in front of him and drank with Shangguan Wan'er.

    Shangguan Wan'er put down the wine bottle and said, "Do you want me to help with the subsequent arrangements? There are some officials in the court who can listen to a word or two of my greetings."

    Tang Song can tell from the old eunuch just now and the extremely ordinary house in Nancheng that Shangguan Wan'er still has many unknown back-end plans.  Thinking carefully about her experience of being exterminated at birth and growing up in the cold palace of Yeting. After such experience, if she didn't know how to prepare for rainy days and take precautions in the bud, she wouldn't be Shangguan Wan'er.

    Knowing the whole story at a glance, she served Wu Zetian as almost a secretary for future generations for sixteen years. Even though Shangguan Wan'er did not dare to make any obvious moves because she was worried about Wu Zetian, sixteen years would be enough for her to serve in the imperial court and in the imperial city.  Create a hidden potential force.

    However, Tang Song did not intend to use this power. While pouring wine for Shangguan Wan'er, he shook his head and said, "I have made arrangements for this matter, and I have paid a lot for it. Even Hongwen Seal Society was bitten by life."  .

    ¡°Coupled with the private messages from the elders of Jiangnan Shilin, it is estimated that the mobilized force is enough.  In this case, there is no need to involve you anymore.¡±

    Seeing that Shangguan Wan'er was speechless after he finished speaking, Tang Song put down his drinking utensils and reached out to hold her hand, as tender as a spring onion. "After a few days, when things start to happen, anyone with a discerning eye will be able to see that this matter has something to do with it."  My relationship cannot be hidden from Your Majesty. If you get involved and His Majesty sees something, it will be a small gain at a loss, and I will regret it deeply."

    Tang Song was telling the truth, and Shangguan Wan'er was helpless. Although she had carefully managed some power over the years, she was too close to Wu Zetian, so she had to think twice about everything she did.  It's fine for small things, but when it comes to using these forces on a large scale, it's inevitable that we have to tie our hands and feet, and we have to discount 60% to 70%.  But even so, she was still a little worried, "You have been planning for so long",

    Tang Song held Shangguan Wan'er's hand tightly, looked into his eyes and said, "Compared with your safety, what does the Fourth Family mean?"

    Hearing this sentence, Shangguan Wan'er suddenly lowered her head. When she raised her head again, her face was as usual. She didn't have anything to say. She just drank from Tang Song and ate a large bottle.

    Slowly in this quiet AccordAfter finishing the meal, it was time to separate again when Shangguan Wan'er had to return to the palace. Neither of them were the kind of people who were sloppy. They got together enthusiastically and parted simply.

    Shangguan Wan'er took the lead to leave the Yage and go straight back to the palace, while Tang Song returned to his house in Beicheng where he had not been for a long time.

    Although this house is small in area but in an excellent location, it was a gift from Wu Zetian. On the day it was given, Xue Huaiyi, who was jealous of the house, led his men to smash the first courtyard to pieces. Later, Shangguan Wan'er reprimanded and renovated it.  , now even more refined.

    When he arrived at the house, the Shangguan brothers and others who had followed him back from the south of the Yangtze River had already arrived and were directing the men who had been hired to guard the house to sweep the courtyard.  As for the arrangement of their residence, the four smart girls accompanied by the little girl Jing Shuang took care of it.

    After An Ran settled down in the house, Tang Song sent people to guard outside the imperial city to welcome He Zhizhang, the empress of San Yamen, and the meeting between the two was quite lively.

    After the lively greetings, Tang Song handed a thick stack of private letters to He Zhizhang, along with some instructions.

    These private letters were all written by prominent figures from Jiangnan states to officials in Beijing. In addition to expressing personal friendship, they were seeking support from officials from their hometowns in the struggle between Jiangnan Shilin and the old tribes in the north.

    "In the next three to five days, He Zhizhang completely abandoned his official duties. He went to the Ministry of Etiquette every day and then disappeared.  It is most appropriate to have him, a man born in Suzhou, Jiangnan, as the messenger.

    The five days passed by in a hurry, and with the two impeachment memorials at the court meeting on the sixth day, the peace that the court and the gods had maintained for more than half a year was suddenly broken.

    One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
