Chapter 28 The most elegant criminal official in the Song Dynasty (1)

Chapter 28 The Most Elegant Sinister in the Song Dynasty (Part 1)

After spitting Zhao Xing's tea to the empty bowl next to him, he poured a second cup of peach kernel wine.

The peach kernel wine is slightly bitter, with a light bitter fragrance of peach kernel. It smells bitter but very light. When you drink it in your stomach, the bitter fragrance seems to open up the meridians of the internal organs, making people feel lazy.

At this moment, Xu Zhizhou's curiosity became stronger - the prelude was so extraordinary, what was the wonderful meeting of the last four bottles of wine? He urgently urged: "Come again!"

Zhao Xing still picked up the teacup and invited tea.

This time, Xu Zhizhou understood: It turned out that the wine brought by this student named Zhao Xing was quite savory. Each time he tasted a new wine, he needed to use tea to remove the aftertaste from his mouth. And because he had to continue drinking, swallowing this sip of tea into his stomach will make his stomach swell, so he had to vomit aside.

This is actually a must-have common sense for modern wine tasters. Zhao Xing did all this naturally. His open manners had another chic flavor, which made Xu Zhizhou feel that the other party was noble in temperament.

In the Song Dynasty, there were complete rules and etiquettes for drinking tea, while drinking was completely unrestrained. Zhao Xing showed the routines that later generations had been tempered and sorted out. The whole set of actions made Xu Zhizhou a little timid. He now believes that there must be a set of etiquettes for drinking, which is because he has little knowledge, so he has never heard of it.

In a timid manner, he had to follow the same example.

Hawthorn wine and pear wine, like the first two wines, both implement the sweetness of fruit wine.

In fact, the degree of these wines is slightly different. The higher the degree of wine you drink, the higher the degree of wheat. The wheat is close to the degree of whiskey. When this wine is fermented, the wheat needs to be roasted to a slightly paste, so the wine brewed has a smell of fresh wheat. As for Fenjiu, it is simply Laobaigan. However, when drinking Fenjiu, Xu Zhizhou was slightly drunk and could not feel the strength of the wine.

He drank too much and his head was tumbling. Not to mention nominating the wine, Xu Zhizhou couldn't even find the north now. He sang lyrics in a slight manner. As for the little concubine named Shengzhi, he simply stuck to Zhao Xing without any notice, poured himself on the orange wine, and asked in a low voice with a smile.

The dancer arrived. Xu Zhizhou, who was drunk, was greeted by the concubine loudly. Silk and bamboo were played in the hall. The concubine Shengzhi was drunk and dancing. When she was in poverty, she giggled and leaned against Xu Zhizhou in a trap and gasped. The strong orange fragrance squirted out of her mouth, and rubbed the 61-year-old man in her hands. The old man's orange-skinned face was as happy as a flower.

Su Shi once recorded this scene. At that time, when Xu Junyou's magistrate and Su Shi were having a banquet, his concubine Shengzhi was ordered to dance. Su Shi wrote: "Two hairs fell in green.

Daicui's eyes are beautiful and wavy.

Wonderful dance and swaying.

The body on the palm is light and the mind is beautiful.

Qu Quan is desperate.

Smiling and panting by the person.

The boss is happy.

I can still look carefully when I am confused (Mulanhua is better than me)."

I can still read carefully when I am confused - it is what Xu Zhizhou looks like now. Unfortunately, Zhao Xing is not good at writing lyrics, so he cannot depict such a vivid scene.

While drunk, Xu Zhizhou asked: "Li Ren, did you brew this wine by yourself?... Haha, this reminds me of another smart man, who also wanted to brew it by yourself according to books... Haha, guess what the wine he brewed - like sausage... Huhuhaha!"

"Li Ren" is the word "Zhao Xing". Because Qu Yuan wrote "Li Sao", "Li Ren" and "Sao Ren" also have the meaning of a poet.

Xu Zhizhou said just now that he was Su Dongpo. It is said that he had no money to buy wine and was greedy and was itchy. So he found a book from somewhere and brewed his own private wine as shown in the picture. After the wine was ready, he didn't dare to drink it himself, so he asked his son Su Mai to taste it first. After trying the first jar of wine, Su Mai commented: It looked like rotten vinegar.

Su Dongpo refused to believe it—as smart as he was, he could not make good wine as shown in the picture, so he tasted the second jar of wine and then believed that what he brewed was not wine, but sausage...

This experience of Su Dongpo inspired future generations, who described a kind of low-grade big qu wine as he invented it and named it "Dongpo wine".

When Xu Zhizhou said this, he suddenly came up with a wonderful reason: "Li Ren, you should meet this person - a poetic and unrestrained person, a poet who has been through the ages! He will definitely give you a good name for your wine."

As he was speaking, a man dressed in a master ran in panic. He leaned his ears and said a few words to Xu Zhizhou. Xu Zhizhou was shocked and his drunkenness seemed to fade away immediately. He pushed his concubine away and asked in panic: "What? Did you run away? When did you run? Why didn't you keep an eye on it?"

After a pause, he shook his head in disbelief: "Impossible, he will leave, and he will not say hello to me!"

The master quickly replied: "The villagers are chanting a new poem he wrote. Please read it... The boat passed away from now on, and the rivers and seas will be sent to the rest of their lives."

After reading this sentence, Xu Zhizhou looked a little panicked. The master added: "Rumor, after writing this poem, the criminal official hanged his clothes and hats by the river, laughed three times to the sky, and disappeared into the vast smoke and waves."

"Select three yamen runners," Xu Zhizhou shouted loudly. At this time, his hat was crooked, and his robe was rubbed by his concubine Shengzhi.

When the master received the order and ran out of the room, Xu Zhizhou remembered Zhao Xing and quickly bowed: "Leave me, I have something to do today. You come again tomorrow, and we will drink it again."

Zhao Xing murmured: "Drinking on Dongpo at night... The boat passed away from now on, and the rest of his life in the river and sea... Lord, I will go with you."

At the east gate of Huangzhou, an abandoned old schoolyard has enclosed more than ten acres of land. The courtyard wall is very short and you can see from afar. A young man on the hillside led a cow and worked in the fields - this is the Dongpo schoolyard of Dongmen, Huangzhou. "Mr. Dongpo" is named after this hillside.

It is called a school ground, which is a flat land with no courtyard walls. The reason why it becomes a school ground is because of that high slope. With this slope, school officials can stand on a high place and take a look at the training scene. On the flat ground, a high platform needs to be built - it is both costly and time-consuming to maintain.

The abandoned old schoolyard - nothing except the ground is slightly flat.

The highest point on the hillside is now a thatched house, with three rooms in total; at the bottom of the slope, a house is built by the river water, with five rooms, and a fence wall in front of the door.

Su Dongpo was the top scholar in the process of the top scholar, but in modern terms, he was the top scholar in miscellaneous studies. The earthen house at the bottom of the slope was very distinctive: the bamboo joints were connected to form bamboo pipes, which brought river water from the river and poured into a large reservoir behind the house. There was a small bridge outside the steps of the hall, which crossed a small ditch. If it weren't for rain, the ditch would often dry up.
