Zeng Guofan-Blood Sacrifice 唐浩明 6555Words 2018-03-14
Not far from the south gate is Wang Yaping.It is located at the foot of Huiyan Peak.This area has rolling hills, lush forests and beautiful scenery.Next to the four large fish ponds lined up side by side, there is an old brick and tile house. Master Wang told Zeng Guofan: "The former residence of Chuanshan has arrived." At the door, Wang Shiquan and his four sons were already waiting.Wang Shiquan said: "Zeng Butang visited the humble house, and Shiquan and his son are very fortunate." Zeng Guofan replied: "Great Confucian descendants, Guofan has admired him for a long time, and today he accompanied his mentor to come here to fulfill his old wish."

Shiquan accompanied Zeng Guofan and his party into the gate.Zeng Guofan saw a pair of old and vigorous couplets engraved on the pillars of the gate: "Martial arts opened the country's fortune once, and culture and education enlightened generations of Mongolians." After sitting down in the living room, the Wang family offered fragrant tea politely and brought a table full of each Refreshments.Shiquan persuaded: "There is no good thing to entertain in the humble house, please honor your lord and all the distinguished guests." Zeng Guofan said: "I heard from my teacher that my husband is celebrating his 60th birthday. Guofan has prepared a small gift. I wish you a long and healthy life."

Guobao handed over the one hundred taels of silver wrapped with a strip of red paper that he had prepared when he was leaving the house. Shiquan panicked and said, "My lord, please take it back quickly. Shiquan is a lowly person. I met my lord for the first time today. How can I take it seriously?" Get up!" Turning to Jue'an again, he asked, "My in-laws, tell me about it for me." Juean said: "Bohan, how can you be so polite, it makes me feel embarrassed." Zeng Guofan said: "The purpose of giving this small gift today is threefold: one is to celebrate Mr. Shiquan's 60th birthday, and the other is to congratulate the Wang and Wang families for their marriage. For more than 20 years, I have never sent a penny to my mentor. My sister is married. , why not send some dowry? The three points are a little bit of my respect for Chuanshan Gong."

Seeing that he spoke so earnestly, Shiquan and Jue'an had to accept it. After eating tea for a while, Zeng Guofan said to Shiquan: "Learning from our ancestors is rare in modern times. Guofan studied under Master Wang, and yearned for Chuanshangong's outstanding performance. Mr. Ke Shaojiqiu, who inherited the ancestral business from afar. Publishing many posthumous works of our ancestors, Jiahui Shilin, has a lot of merit." Shiquan bowed his body and replied: "It is the Wang family's long-cherished wish to publish the old works left by the ancestors of the family, and it is also Shiquan's duty. It's just that Shiquan's academic ability and financial resources are not enough, and his wish has not been fulfilled for many years. In the 19th year of Daoguang, relying on Mr. Deng Xianggao of Xinhua was a great scholar, and Mr. Ouyang Xiaocen of Xiangtan generously subsidized more than 5,000 gold, and more than ten kinds of works on the classics of the ancestors of the family were able to be published."

"It is said that the ancestors lived in poverty in their later years, but still kept reading and writing. They are indeed role models for generations of scholars." "The ancestors of the family were poor all their lives. In their later years, they lived in seclusion in the thatched cottage in Xiangxi, Qulan. It was very difficult to read and write. To put it bluntly, the ancestors of the family had no money to buy paper at that time, so they turned over the old account books that others did not want and bound them into volumes. From time to time, they realized. It was recorded in these books. At the end of his life, the booklets filled with words piled up in a room, but there was no way to print a volume during his lifetime."

Zeng Guofan asked: "Nineteen years ago, Daoguang, what books were engraved by Chuanshangong?" Shiquan said: "Not long after the ancestor of the family passed away, his fourth son, Wang Bian, published more than ten kinds in Hengzhou based on the collection of the Caotang in Western Hunan. The general title was "Mr. Wang Chuanshan's Book Collection". The bookstore engraved several more and printed even fewer." "How many plates were printed in the 19th year of Daoguang?" Zeng Guofan asked. Shiquan replied: "At that time, only two or three hundred copies of one type were printed, and the plates were kept in Ouyang Xiaocen's house, and they planned to print more in the future. A few days ago, Mr. Xiaocen wrote a letter saying that this edition had been destroyed in the fire. "

"What a pity!" Everyone in the living room sighed at the same time. Zeng Guofan said: "I haven't read much in Chuanshan Gong's books. When I was in Beijing, Meng Xiaocen presented forty-nine volumes of "Book of Rites Zhangju" and fourteen volumes of textual research on various scriptures. Confucius spoke kindly and sought benevolence while practicing propriety with elegant words. Mencius also called benevolence and righteousness the same. The sage-kings are equal to the feelings of things and me and stop the disputes in the world. There is nothing greater than benevolence inside, and no rush to propriety outside. Mr. Zhu noted the number of "Book of Rites" One hundred thousand words, in order to study the same origin of people and things, to show the outline and dimension of all things, to eliminate the chaos of the world without form, and the merits are great."

Old man Ouyang said: "What Disheng said is very true. At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of our dynasty, Huang Nanlei, Gu Tinglin, and Wang Chuanshan were collectively called the three major Confucian scholars. Lin Wei's studies are fragmented and not systematic; Chuanshan Gong's knowledge is all-encompassing, broad and profound, and his character is even more noble and pure, not yellow and caring." Jue'an said: "Treasures are everywhere in Chuanshan Gongshu. As long as you pay attention, you can pick it up when you open the book. And there are many discussions that have never been published before. They are so subtle that they are beyond the reach of the world. Take the evaluation of Yue Wumu as an example. Later generations It is said that Wu Mu is stupid and loyal, and it is a pity for him. Chuanshan Gong has a unique insight, saying that Wu Mu was killed because he was disloyal to the emperor and confronted Gaozong tit for tat."

Shiquan said: "The ancestors of the family thought that Wu Mu wanted to fight against Jin to the end, but Gaozong Zhao Gou wanted to seek peace from Jin and become a minister, so Gaozong could not tolerate Wu Mu." Jue'an said: "What's even more shocking is that Mr. Chuanshan openly believed that after Wu Mu destroyed the Jin, it was justifiable to attack the Song Dynasty again." Guobao said: "What Chuanshan said is reasonable, but Zhao Gou is stupid, why not Wu Mu instead!" Luo Zenan also said: "This discussion is very happy!" Zeng Guofan felt that it was inconvenient for such discussions to be made frequently, and if they spread to the court, it would be a bit of a hindrance.He changed the subject: "How many surviving descendants of Chuanshan Gong?"

"About one hundred and fifty people. I am the descendant of the ancestor's second son, Gong Gong." Shiquan replied. Zeng Guofan nodded and said, "Mr. Chuanshangong's former residence is guarded, and the precious relics of the ancestors are preserved. The world has been chaotic recently, and it is not easy for Mr. to keep it." "The ancestors' old deeds, Shiquan dare not abandon. Although it is not easy to keep it, it is also the responsibility of future generations." Jue'an said: "Family, why don't you accompany Bohan to visit the Chuanshangong ruins."

Zeng Guofan said: "I am about to pay my respects, Mr. Fan Shiquan will lead the way." Shiquan led Zeng Guofan and his party into a wing on the left.Most of the old things on display here are from Chuanshan.As soon as you enter the house, you will be greeted by a portrait of a boat monkey.The painting is an old man with a clear face, a very long face, slender eyebrows and long eyes, his head is covered with a black cloth, and a tail that is more than a foot long is drawn from both ends of the black cloth, which runs down his ears and rests on his shoulders .On the portrait is inscribed a poem "Partridge Sky" written by Chuanshan Gong: "If you look in the mirror, you can't recognize it, and ask people that this is Jiang Zhai. After the turtle dies, it will be divination by others. When the dream is not fulfilled, Mo Lang guesses. Who The pen stick, this shape is so slender, I lost your sorrow and your brows opened. You are still alive before the plum blossoms have fallen. I have been begging to be buried alive since the sky." On both sides of the portrait, there is a couplet written by Chuanshan: "The Six Classics charge me to open the face, seven feet Beg from the sky to be buried alive." Shiquan introduced that this is a portrait that Chuanshangong asked someone to paint on his 70th birthday.Zeng Guofan pointed to the eight seal characters "Xiao Si Tian Pin, Xia Can Song Jian" on the top of the portrait and asked: "Who inscribed these eight characters?" Shiquan replied: "This is the words given to the ancestors by Emperor Yongli. It was written by Chen Tiantai, a friend of the ancestors. There is also a portrait of the ancestors here." Shiquan pointed to the opposite wall.Zeng Guofan and others turned their faces and saw a portrait of Chuanshan Gong hanging on the opposite wall.It's the same as the old man in the above, except that the head is not covered with cloth, but is wearing a virgin scarf. There is also a poem written by Chuanshan himself: "The lonely lamp has no choice but to break the wall and make a fool of myself. There is no place for the dragonfly in autumn water." , all of which show the ruined lotus and willows, the circles in the painting, black and white in the picture, there is no reason to say it. You should only laugh at me, the cuckoo sings after spring. When the sunset is dark and the sky is dark, the quasi-possession is decaying. Under the slanting sun on the ridge, at the bottom of the dry tree, I sit and guard with the prison. The hook points to the sky, the frost brushes the neck, and the soap hat is still sticking to the head. I ask you to go to Japan, is there anyone who still looks like you!" Zeng Guofan came out to the world: "It seems that this poem is not included in the collection of Lingzu's poems?" Shiquan replied: "It is indeed confiscated. The reason is unknown now. It must have been caused by the ancestors of the family. They took the lead and wrote the book to laugh at themselves. Afterwards, they didn't take it seriously, so they were not included in the collection." Zeng Guofan nodded. It was the first time for Zeng Guofan, Luo Zenan, and Zeng Guobao to come here, and they looked carefully one by one. Some of the books engraved three times and most of the unpublished manuscripts were collected in the room.Zeng Guofan also flipped through these manuscripts.There is a cabinet in which are the coats and hats Chuanshan wore during his lifetime.What interested Zeng Guofan most was a sword with ancient patterns.The scabbard was made of copper leather, with dense silver nails nailed around it, and the five-inch-long bronze hilt was polished to a shiny shine by hand.Zeng Guofan didn't expect such an ancient sword among Wang Chuanshan's relics, so he pulled out a piece of it curiously, and immediately saw the light shining.He blurted out: "Good sword!" He put the drawn part back into the scabbard, and continued to watch. After a while, he said to Luo Zenan who was beside him: "When the war subsides in the future, we will raise funds to publish the complete works of Ship Monkey. This is a cause of great contribution to the world." Luo Zenan said with a smile: "At that time, Sisheng will take the lead, and Zenan will fully assist." Zeng Guofan said: "It's a deal. At that time, I can take the lead, and the proofreading depends on you." Zenan said: "I would like to spend ten years to do this." Guobao smiled and said, "Master Luo Shan is so smart, that's actually paying you to study for ten years." All three laughed.Hearing the conversation between the three of them, Wang Shiquan thought of Zeng Guofan's praise of the ancient sword in the cabinet, so he quietly called Wang Juean aside and said, "Master Zeng seems to like the sword of his ancestors. As the saying goes, a sword is given to a strong man, and red powder is given Beautiful woman. Lord Zeng is leading the army to kill the enemy, and we need this kind of thing, so we have no use for keeping it, so we might as well give it to him." Dang An said: "That's great, you can give it to him later!" "I'm afraid Mr. Zeng won't accept it." "You mean he's being polite, sorry?" "no." "What's the reason for that?" "In-laws, you know, the ancestor of the family was a courtier of the former Ming Dynasty, and he never communicated with the court during his lifetime. Does Mr. Zeng have any taboos?" Jue'an pondered for a while and said, "I will say a few words later, and he will naturally accept it." Zeng Guofan turned his attention to the west wall, where there are inscriptions of several celebrities in modern times. Hanging at the front are four characters in regular script. "Hengyue looks up and stops."There is a postscript after the word: "Mr. Wang Chuanshan of Hengshan, a great Confucian in the country, is a great Confucianist in the country. Apart from Confucianism, his writings are equal. After Xixian, Ke Shao’s family reputation, solid forehead to send. In April of the 18th year of Daoguang, I asked Governor Liangjiang’s envoy to edit Tao Shu’s respect for Anhua’s former Imperial Academy.” Next, Tao Shulian wrote: "Scholars in the world are not from the same town, and the teacher of human relations is also the teacher of a hundred generations." Zeng Guofan applauded secretly in his heart.Looking at it further, there are two couplets written by Qi Junzao and Xu Naipu: "The spirit is nine thousand feet above Hengyue, and the heart caresses Lisao twenty-five chapters." It is only Gu Tinglin who writes the same voice." After Xu Naipu, Chang Dachun wrote a poem called "Qilu" when he visited the thatched cottage in Xiangxi at noon: "The three rooms in the old house are new, and the sages have lived here for a long time. I lament the change of scenery today. , I want to see the frequency of writings back then. Jiazi wrote Tao Jingjie by himself, and Gengyin who dared Chu Lingjun. I come to Infinity Zhenhui to recommend Zaoping to Chuanshan.” Looking at Chang Dachun’s ink, thinking that he is already dead, Zeng Guofan couldn't help feeling a little sad.After Chang Dachun, there are still some poems with couplets, some well written and some mediocre.Suddenly, a familiar handwriting jumped into my eyes, and it turned out to be another couplet: "I embrace my loneliness, my loyalty and my sorrow, and my stone, and the group pushes me to learn to connect with the Hengqu." At the back of the couplet, there is a line of words: "And Mr. Nong has a few feasts, so we can’t get a glimpse of them. I would like to excerpt Mr.’s own inscriptions as a dedication. Daoguang Renyin visited Changsha in June to learn from Tang Jianjing’s inscriptions and books.” Mr. Jinghai has all the words hanging here, but he is the first one today. Once here, Zeng Guofan felt ashamed compared to the respect of his predecessors. Wang Shiquan came over and said: "Thanks to the virtuous attention of the elders, I have bestowed calligraphy and ink to make the humble room brighter. Today, my lord is here. It is a great honor to meet again. Shiquan has prepared pens, inks, papers and inkstones. Please reward my lord and distinguished guests with poems. Members of the Wang family Grateful." "Guofan has little talent and learning, and after the former sages and calligraphy, how can we allow my generation to intervene? In the future, the world will look at him like a dog, and he will be humiliated." Zeng Guofan was humble and refused, but Wang Shiquan insisted on pleading.Zeng Guofan likes to write poems and compose poems, and he would like to write couplets as a souvenir whenever he is idle on weekdays. Today, when he came to the former residence of a generation of Confucianists, how could he not want to leave ink marks?Just now, I gave up, firstly because of the humility in etiquette, and secondly because this place is unusual, and I haven't thought about it maturely, for the sake of prudence, it's better not to ask.Now seeing Shiquan's sincere attitude, he thought about it and wrote a couplet on the book case: "Jian Shu exegesis, Six Classics Yu Yi Youzun, Explanation of Xi Wen, Zhou Confucius' legacy, Han and Song Confucians retreated to listen; Jieyi Ci Zhang, Following Lianluo Guanmin, Yuan and Ming Dynasties have a gentleman." After writing, he said repeatedly: "I'm laughing, I'm laughing." Everyone saw Zeng Guofan's high evaluation of Chuanshan's knowledge, and saw that his characters were strong and upright. Rigorous and smooth, unanimous praise.Zeng Guofan inscribed in small characters on the lower left: "In November of the third year of Xianfeng, the emperor ordered the assistant minister of regiment training, the front right hall of the Ministry of Rites, Zeng Guofan's respectful inscription". Shiquan asked Luo Zenan to write another question, and Zenan thanked him again and again: "I have always been slow in thinking, and I have no good sentences in a hurry, so please forgive me!" Zeng Guofan said: "Luo Shanmo declined, if you decline again, it will appear that I am overestimated." The world knows that Luo Zenan is an extremely influential scholar in central Hunan, how can he miss this opportunity and ask repeatedly.Zenan couldn't resist, so he had to write a couplet: "Zhong Xiyueshi, learned from Shao Hengqu, wrote a book in those days, and set a career for thousands of years; Promote the Confucianism of the century." Also signed: "In November of the third year of Xianfeng, Baosheng Zhili Prefecture Zhizhou Xiangxiang County taught Luo Zenan to know." Everyone praised it unanimously.Shiquan asked Guobao again.Guobao felt embarrassed. He looked at his elder brother, not knowing whether to ask the question or not.Zeng Guofan understood what he meant, and said: "You have always admired Mr. Chuanshan. Today, when you pay homage to Mr. Chuanshan's former residence, write a couplet to express your heart!" Encouraged by his eldest brother, Guobao thought carefully and wrote a couplet: "Xiangshui Hengyun stays upright, and Chuci's lonely bamboo proves the same heart." The family came in and said that dinner was ready. Shiquan invited Zeng Guofan and his party, Jue'an The teacher and old man Ouyang took the seat together. During the banquet, Shiquan toasted frequently, and Juean, as the host, kept persuading the dishes, and the host and guests were very happy.Juean remembered that Shiquan was going to give him a sword. In order to dispel Zeng Guofan's concerns, he brought the topic to Wang Chuanshan's attitude towards the court.Jue'an intentionally concealed Chuanshan's hostile side towards the Qing Dynasty, but talked about his obedience to the court: "People say that Chuanshan Gong is a remnant of the Ming Dynasty and does not cooperate with the Qing Dynasty. In fact, this statement is not comprehensive. Mr. is indeed loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but he also supports the Qing Dynasty. " "Really?" Guobao interrupted. "There are facts to prove this." Wang Juean went on to say, "In the 16th year of Kangxi, Wu Sangui, admiring Chuanshan's name, paid a lot of money to ask Mr. to write the "Encouragement Form" for him. Mr. refused, saying how can I do this. Unspoken words? In the face of big right and wrong, you can see your ambition." Zeng Guofan nodded, expressing agreement with Master Wang's point of view.Shi Quan was deeply aware of Jue An's intentions, and immediately took over the conversation: "Because the ancestors of the family did not join forces with Wu Sangui, Emperor Kangxi admired the ancestors of the family's Pinzao integrity. In the eighteenth year of Kangxi, Zheng Duan, the governor of Hunan, followed the imperial order and ordered Cui Mingao, the magistrate of Hengzhou A gift of rice and silver. In the forty-second year of Kangxi, at the request of Huguang Xuezheng Pan Zongluo, Hu Zhigong published the suicide note. In the forty-sixth year of Kangxi, the imperial court approved Chuanshangong to be enshrined in the Xiangxian Temple. In the thirty-ninth year of Qianlong Include the "Book of Changes", "Book of Books", "Spring and Autumn" and "Chunqiu" into the Siku Quanshu, and order the National History Museum to set up a biography for the ancestors of the family." Zeng Guofan said: "I am the Holy Lord of all dynasties, and I have never been more kind to Mr. Chuanshan." Shiquan also said: "Fortunately, Changmao did not enter Hengzhou. With his attitude towards Confucius and Mencius, the ancestors of the family will also be humiliated. The reason why Wang Yaping is still peaceful today is that the Lord and gentlemen defended the village, The merit of fighting against the long hair. The ancestors of the family, Jiuquan, knew it, and would be inexplicably grateful." Zeng Guofan thanked him a little, and said: "When I just entered the door, I saw the couplet on the house saying 'martial arts will bring the fortune of the country'. It seems that my ancestors started with martial arts." Shiquan said: "Your Excellency, you have learned a lot. The ancestors of the Wang family really won a place for the family by virtue of martial arts." Zenan said: "My generation is lonely, and I have never heard of the military exploits made by our ancestors." "My Wang family came from Taiyuan, and later moved to Hanjiang, Jiangsu. Zhong Yigong, the ancestor of Chuanshangong, followed Emperor Hongwu in the army, and later crossed the river to conquer Jinling. In the twelfth year, he was promoted to General Wude and Lieutenant Xiaoqi. The second ancestor Chenggong went south from Ming Chengzu to make meritorious service. According to legend, in the sixth generation, Shaozi was prosperous, and the martial arts declined in Qiye. After that, Confucianism emerged in large numbers." "How many generations has Chuanshangong been?" "It's the eleventh generation. The old sword you saw just now was given to Zhong Yigong by Emperor Hongwu. With this sword, Zhong Yigong followed Emperor Hongwu to conquer Jinling. Master Zeng, you are now leading the army , is the time to use the sword. The Wang family has been famous for its articles since the Duke of Wuyi. This sword remains in the Wang family. It is just an antique and cannot play its role. Since ancient times, the sword was given to the strong man. On behalf of the Wang family, I would like to present this sword to your lord." "This can't be done! This sword is an ancestral treasure of the Wang family, how can Guofan win people's love!" Zeng Guofan hastily thanked him. "Bohan, since Shiquan is sincere, you can accept it! This sword has made great achievements in martial arts, and it was also a mascot for conquering Jinling. Today, Changmao occupies Jinling, and Shiquan will give it to you. This is God's will. It will be restored in the future. Jinling must be Bohan." Wang Juean assisted his in-laws to persuade him. Zeng Guofan originally believed that Wang Chuanshan was a former Ming Dynasty minister who did not cooperate with the Qing Dynasty. Today, after listening to Wang Shiquan and Wang Jue'an, he knows that he is also a noble man of this dynasty.What excited him even more was that this sword had the glorious experience of conquering Jinling.Is it true that the great feat of regaining Jinling must be established by oneself?If it is God's will, it cannot be violated.Thinking of this, Zeng Guofan stood up and said, "Since Mr. Shiquan was wrongly loved, and Master Wang ordered him, Guofan has to accept it." Shi Quanming took out the sword and gave it to Guofan respectfully with both hands, saying: "This sword has two differences. One is that the blade looks very blunt, but it cuts iron and jade like dirt. The other is that every midnight In between, it will make a long cry. It has been like this for many years." Everyone at the table was amazed, and Zeng Guofan was even more delighted.Wang Juean said: "Bohan, I beg you on behalf of the Wang family. When Jinling is conquered and the world is stable, please come forward and invite famous scholars in the world to collate and engrave the complete works of Chuanshangong. Promote me to academics. According to the old-fashioned view, this achievement may not be under the leveling of long hairs." Zeng Guofan turned sideways and replied: "My disciples will remember my teacher's teachings. In the future, the first achievement in conquering Jinling will not belong to me. If God grants this to my disciples, I will definitely engrave all the suicide notes of Chuanshan Gong in Jinling." Shiquan got up and expressed his deep gratitude.Everyone keep drinking.Old man Ouyang said: "Tisheng is happy to get the sword today, and the old man is also happy. I really like an ancient sword inscription that I read in the past. How about giving this ancient sword inscription to you now?" "Thank you, father-in-law." Zeng Guofan replied respectfully. "This ancient sword inscription is written in this way." Ning Zhi read out every word, "If you use the light lightly, it will cause injury when you move it. It is a murder weapon; if it is hidden deeply, it is a sharp weapon if you decide at the moment." After listening to this ancient sword inscription, Zeng Guofan understood his father-in-law's far-reaching intentions, stood up very gratefully and said, "Guofan will keep it in his heart." Ningzhi then said to Zeng Guofan: "You have been here for four months. I have heard people say that no matter how big or small, you do everything by yourself. You work day and night, and you have no time. If things go on like this, it will damage your health. Bing Yuniang wants me to tell you. Take care of yourself at all times. I am very happy that you can take a break from your busy schedule this morning and go fishing on the river. Since ancient times, people who have achieved great things have always taken a break from their busy schedule. One piece and one relaxation, the way of civil and military affairs!" Hearing his father-in-law mention the fishing in the morning, he suddenly thought of the establishment of a naval division. Master Wang, father-in-law and Mr. Shiquan are all learned scholars, why not discuss it with them? "Mother-in-law's concern, Guofan is very grateful. Guofan went to school fishing in the river this morning, and remembered that Changmao successfully broke through the three towns of Wuhan, Anqing, and Jiujiang this time, and moved towards Jiangning. Navy. In the future, when we fight with Long Mao, we can’t do without gunboats. I want to build a navy in Hengzhou. Today, I’m asking you seniors, is it possible?” Ouyang Ningzhi, Jiang Juean, and Wang Shiquan all agreed that Zeng Guofan's consideration was far-reaching. Hengzhou is located at the confluence of Hunan and Hunan, and there are many people who are familiar with water, so there is no need to worry about not being able to train a strong navy.Finally, Wang Shiquan said: "Master Zeng wants to run a navy, but I think of a person who grew up with his father in Anhui. He has a copy of "Gongjin Water Warfare" in his family. Su is a very useful talent." "Who is this person?" Zeng Guofan was very interested in Wang Shiquan's recommendation. "This person's name is Peng Yulin, his name is Xueqin, and he is from Zhajiang in this county." Wang Juean said: "Exactly. If my in-laws hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten it. This man can really be called a jade unicorn in Hengzhou Prefecture." "Where is Peng Yulin now?" "He is currently living with his mother in Zhajiang," Shiquan replied. "I will go to Zhajiang to visit him within a few days." "Don't bother Mr. Zeng to visit Zhajiang in person," Wang Shiquan said, "I will write a book in the future and invite him to my humble house, and then I will accompany him to Sangyuan Street to meet him."
