What should we do next? Tang Bohu thought for a moment and suddenly had a brainwave. He shook the fan in his hand and asked, "Can I pay for the wine with the fan in my hand?" Who knows that the restaurant still refused. Tang Bohu bowed his head and thought for a moment. He had answers and shouted, "Sell fans, sell fans!" At this time, a rich man came up and asked, "How much can this small fan sell?" Tang Bohu handed him the fan and said, "Look." Who knows that this rich man is simply a layman? He picked up the fan and looked at it. He said, "The painting on this fan looks like graffiti at first glance. It is worthless to draw at will. " Say that finish, he threw the fan on the ground. Tang Bohu was very angry when he said this. After a while, another man came and saw him dressed like a scholar in plain clothes. When he saw the painting on the fan, he clapped his hands and praised it again and again. He saw at a glance that it was a masterpiece. After reading the fan, the scholar turned to look at Tang Bohu. Seeing that he was handsome, elegant and handsome, he tentatively asked, "Are you the first romantic talent in Jiangnan, Tang Bohu?" Tang Bohu nodded with a smile. When people around them heard that it was Tang Bohu who sold the fan, they paid a high price for it, while Tang Bohu just gave the fan to anyone except the scholar and said, "You know people well and do their duty well. This fan should be yours. " The scholar said gratefully, "But I only have twelve taels of silver on me, so I can't afford your painting." "You might as well give me five taels of silver, just enough for me to drink." The scholar accepted the fan and handed it to Tang Bohu to thank humbly. Seeing this scene, the rich people on one side realized that they had just missed the masterpiece of the master, so they quickly invited Tang Bohu to sit at the table and have a drink with them. After drinking for a while, the rich man said to Tang Bohu, "Teacher, can you sell me that fan just now? I am willing to pay 1200 gold. " Tang Bohu shook his head and got up to go. Who knows that the rich man actually beat Lai Lai: "Did you just drink my wine and want to leave without giving money?" Tang Bohu won't be fooled by him, saying, "You told me to drink. How can I not drink this free wine? " Say that finish, everyone around you laughed. Rich people importune, insist on leaving Tang Bohu to paint, but Tang Bohu is in the way, so people have to prepare ink, brush and paint quickly. When the rich man picked up the painting, his eyes were full of anger. It turned out that Tang Bohu drew a thousand-year-old turtle for him and wrote a line beside it: People respect me one foot, I respect others one foot, and those who respect others will respect others; If you don't respect others, you should deal with them as they deal with you. Tang Bohu not only paints well, but also writes poems well. However, for various reasons, almost all his poems were lost in his later years. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a bookseller named He who was very fond of poems and songs. In order to collect Tang Bohu's poems, he spent twelve thousand pieces of silver. A lot of things have happened. A few years later, he collected nearly 100 poems lost by Tang Bohu before his death and sold them in Luoyang, making Luoyang paper expensive. Coincidentally, Jin Mao, a famous publisher and collector in Jiangnan, is also a poetry fan in Tang Bohu. His catalogues "Chronicle of Poems in Ming Dynasty" and "Wen Yuan in Ancient and Modern Times" contain Tang Yin's poems and anecdotes in detail, which provide valuable materials for future generations' research. The most popular story about Tang Bohu's love is that Tang Bohu lit Chou-heung. This story tells that the wife of a famous scholar in China took her servant to Wuzhong to burn incense and happened to meet Tang Bohu. At that time, Tang Bohu was invited by Wen Zhiming and Zhu Zhishan to visit Tiger Hill. At this time, a handmaid in Washington attracted the attention of Tang Bohu. I think this woman, although in the crowd, has a distinctive temperament. Tang Bohu was moved. She followed everyone in Washington until she came to a temple. I saw Mrs. Hua walk into the hall with all the people and bow down to the Buddha. Tang Bohu went in, pretended to worship Buddha and knelt beside the maid. Just then, the handmaid accidentally dropped the handkerchief she carried with her on the ground, and Tang Bohu took the opportunity to pick it up and put it in her arms.
After burning incense and worshipping Buddha, everyone in Washington went to Tiger Hill again. At this moment, Tang Bohu seized the opportunity, followed her maid to a secluded rock, and then took out a handkerchief and returned it to her. The maid took the handkerchief, didn't speak, just smiled at Tang Bohu. On the way, I left Wen and Zhu, rented a small boat in Washington and followed the big ship. His favorite handmaid Chou-heung is Mrs. Hua's favorite maid. Halfway through the boat, Chou-heung came out of the cabin with a basin of water and poured it impartially. This basin of water falls right on Tang Bohu. Instead of hiding, Tang Bohu rushed Chou-heung and giggled assiduously. Chou-heung looked at his simple and honest appearance and laughed out loud. When the ship arrived in Wuxi, everyone in Washington went ashore. Tang Bohu quickly ordered the boatman to stop the boat, and then followed him all the way to Washington. Tang Bohu was worried when Chou-heung came in. Suddenly, he saw Chou-heung turn around and looked at him panting. He smiled at him and closed the door. This is the story of Tang Bohu Prize winner San Xiao. Master Hua has two sons, both of whom are stupid. Hua posted a notice asking a knowledgeable teacher to teach his son to read and write. In order to win Chou-heung's heart, Tang Bohu changed her name to Hua 'an and went to Washington to apply for a teacher. Tang Bohu was stubborn by nature and wanted to tease two stupid young masters in Washington, so he drew a portrait of "a pair of fools". She didn't want to be seen by Chou-heung who came to deliver tea, so she gave the tea to her wife. Mrs. Hua was very angry when she saw that she dared to laugh at her son, but on second thought, the content of this painting was really irritating, but the painter was really good and the brushwork was exquisite and vivid. The second daughter-in-law in Washington happened to be Tang Bohu's cousin, so she took the opportunity to help him make suggestions and said, "Madam, Hua 'an is so good at painting, why don't you ask him to paint a portrait for you?" Sister Hua turned anger into joy. At this time, I took the opportunity to ask Chou-heung to help me polish the ink, and Tang and Qiu had further contact. Later, Tang Bohu proposed several dates to Chou-heung. Although Chou-heung verbally agreed, she didn't go to the appointment once. Gentle Zhu has not seen each other for a long time. Later, when I learned that he was working in Washington, I came to Wuxi and visited Washington in person. I wanted to take it home, but I refused, so Wen and Zhu had to give up. A few days later, Tang Bohu got an opportunity, slipped out of Washington, found Zhu Zhishan and Wen Zhiming, and explained the reason to them. At this time, Wen and Zhu suddenly realized. Tang Bohu felt that staying in Washington was not the way, so he discussed with them and finally came up with a countermeasure to get the China bachelor to promise him to choose one of all the maids as his wife. On this day, Mrs. Hua called all the maids to Washington and asked them to stand in the hall and choose. But after reading it from beginning to end, even though Chou-heung was nowhere to be seen, she still refused to give up and said to Mrs. Hua, "I want to meet all the maids for your sake." At this time, the daughter-in-law standing by reminded Mrs. Hua, "You take Chou-heung to the back garden. Mrs. Hua understood and asked Chou-heung to come to the hall. " . Chou-heung appeared, and Tang Bohu was very satisfied. Chou-heung and I eloped to Zhu's home that night. The next day, the news that Chou-heung eloped with Hua 'an spread all over Washington. Hua hurriedly sent someone to ask Zhu's family, but Hua 'an said Chou-heung was not at home, but at home. At this moment, Huaan suddenly realized that Huaan is Tang Bohu, and he himself has been to Tang Fu. From then on, the two families became in-laws and went on. However, is there really such a thing in history? According to historical records, there are similar stories in the history of the Ming Dynasty. The hero of the story is also a scholar, but the scholar's name is Chen, which has nothing to do with him. It's just that a nosy person put it on Tang Bohu's name. According to historical records, Chou-heung was actually a prostitute in Nanjing during Chenghua period of Ming Dynasty. Her real name is 20 years older than me, and her bachelor of Chinese studies is 27 years younger than me. The three of them are not from the same era, let alone play such a good play together. In some folk dramas, Tang Bohu is portrayed as a lecherous with no desire to satisfy.
But this is inconsistent with history. Poor scholar wrote in his book with Wen Zhiming: "In the reflecting room, the bottle was broken, and there were many things besides clothes and shoes." He sells paintings for a living, but it is still difficult to support himself. Where did he get the spare money to marry eight or nine wives? In fact, Tang Bohu not only had no concubines, but also his original wife died of illness. Although she later married a second wife, this wife looked down on Tang Bohu and felt that there was no future with him, so she left him a year or two later. He became bosom friends with a woman named Shen nine niang. People misunderstand Tang Bohu, because the word "romance" in romantic wit is a curse. In fact, on the contrary, Tang Bohu's character is vicious and full of sense of justice. He is cynical and has repeatedly failed in political struggles. After seeing through the darkness of officialdom, he carved a seal for himself. The seal changed Tang Yin to "White Tiger" to show the struggle against evil forces. White Tiger is a book published in Lu Wenjian and performed in the Tang Dynasty. There is a saying in the book called "Shadow monsters fear tigers and cypresses". This seal fully demonstrates Tang Bohu's integrity and backbone. To this end, "On India's Absolute Residence" also wrote a poem to praise him: "The Six Buddhas are the cleanest and craziest, and once wrote the word' White Tiger'. I want to see Wang Liang cover up the sun and talk about evil spirits. " Unfortunately, such a talented person, whose cynical and arrogant personality was not tolerated by this society, had a rough life and eventually died in poverty at the age of 54.
