17. Yong needle
CHAPTER XVII
Tang Xiaoshi actually didn't want to use the works of her predecessors to stand out, but in this situation, she had to take out the works of the masters to support the scene.
In the dynasty of the Chu Dynasty, which is a parallel space, the history is completely different from the history of China, and the poems and songs that Tang Xiaoshi learned naturally did not have in this dynasty.
Therefore, she can learn from a wide range, from the three emperors and five emperors, down to the Sui, Tang, Ming and Qing dynasties, the bold school, the graceful school, and the realistic school, she can use it.
She carefully polished the ink, her movements were very gentle and moving, and she said softly to Chu Ming: "The concubine is studying ink and writing poems, and the husband writes for me, how about it?" β
Because Tang Xiaoshi can't write with a brush, she can't read her calligraphy at all!
Chu Ming turned his head, the two looked at each other, Chu Ming saw the calmness in Tang Xiaoshi's eyes, and there was a hint of care and comfort, his heart warmed, the anger in his heart disappeared a little, and the whole person calmed down.
Because this time is different from the past, this time Chu Ming is not alone, but someone is responsible with him.
Chu Ming nodded, spread out the rice paper, rolled up his sleeves, picked up the brush, and prepared to write.
Chu Ming is a person who practices martial arts, his wrists are flexible, his elbows are stable, and he has been stable since he was a child, and his words are like his people, so Chu Ming's calligraphy is quite good, there is a strong and natural flow of water, and there is a strong and mighty force that sweeps thousands of armies.
I only heard Tang Xiaoshi calmly said: "Boiled beans are used as soup, and drums are used as juice." β
These two sentences are flat and straightforward, not brilliant or out of line, just a simple description of the bean soup.
When Chu Ming heard this, he waved his pen, and the two lines of big characters on the rice paper were completed in one go, and the strokes were vigorous. Even Tang Xiaoshi had to admire, if such a character can be passed down to future generations, it must also be a calligraphy treasure.
Tang Jiaojiao's expression was a little unnatural, although the level of these two poems was mediocre, it is said that Tang Xiaojiao's level was not so high, shouldn't she be full of mistakes and omissions in the first sentence? Forget it, wait a little longer, maybe the next sentence will reveal a flaw.
Tang Xiaoshi said again: "The beans are burning under the kettle, and the beans are crying in the kettle." β
As soon as this sentence came out, the poem had a little meaning, and the word "weeping" not only wrote the boiling of the soup, but also used the metaphor very appropriately, personifying the beans in the kettle.
Smart people have already understood Tang Xiaoshi's metaphor through these two poems, and secretly hid back, because they knew that as soon as Tang Xiaoshi's poem came out, no one could ridicule her, and no one dared to say that this poem was not, and standing in front would only slap themselves in the face.
Stupid people still can't understand the deep meaning of these two poems, and they are still thinking about how to criticize this poem and how to make Qinwang Chusheng happy.
Chu Sheng understood the meaning of these two poems, he gritted his teeth, and regretted agreeing to let the woman in front of him stand up and write poems, if there was any negligence in today's plan, it was that Tang Xiaoshi was not counted.
This is the biggest mistake Chu Sheng made, this woman is too simple!
originally wanted to insult Chu Ming by composing a poem, but a poem by Tang Xiaoshi was not insulted, but was satirized.
And Chu Ming, after listening to these two lines of Tang Xiaoshi's poems, was greatly shocked in his heart, and he was ashamed of himself.
The focus is still on the scene!
What a resourceful woman this must be!
His heart was happy, one stroke was drawn, and he even held his breath, waiting for Tang Xiaoshi's final finishing touch.
Tang Xiaoshi looked at Chu Sheng, her eyes were sharp, and she said coldly: "It's the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other!" Her eyes, her tone, and the last sentence were all in place, full of irony, like a sharp sword, leaving those present speechless.
The people who originally wanted to ridicule Tang Xiaoshi and his wife were silent, they were speechless, and they didn't know what to do.
is born from the same root, isn't this Chu Sheng and Chu Ming? Both of them are sons of the royal family, and they are both the flesh and blood of the emperor.
Why is it too anxious to fry each other, Chu Sheng is bullying people now, isn't it just a burning bean branch under the kettle?
Now Chu Sheng is not thinking about how to humiliate Chu Ming, but thinking about how to prevent this poem from spreading, once this poem spreads to the people, the simple and ironic verses will definitely cause a storm in Chang'an City, and even in the entire Chu State.
Those who read the book will definitely appreciate and interpret this poem, and they will also copy it, they will definitely inquire about today's events, and at that time, Chu Sheng will be pushed to the forefront, and his reputation will be very bad. In case it reaches the ears of his father, although his father doesn't like Chu Ming, it is also his flesh and blood after all, and he will definitely be scolded by his father for insulting Chu Ming like this today.
As for Tang Jiaojiao, she was already hiding behind Chu Sheng with her son, she didn't dare to speak, looking at everyone's expressions, she knew that she had made a big mistake today.
Tang Xiaoshi knows the power of public opinion, and she knows that she can't do it directly now, so she has to use the power of public opinion. The poem was a satire of fratricide, and she believed that if anyone dared to say even half a bad word about the poem, the scholars would go and tear down the house without her intervention.
The power of the reader is powerful! No one can stop this poem from circulating!
Chu Ming's heart was already full of admiration for Tang Xiaoshi, and he vowed that he would chase this woman's heart back in this life.
Tang Xiaoshi glanced coldly at the people around her and said, "What do you think of this poem?" Can this be the case? β
The crowd was silent.
Tang Xiaoshi continued: "It seems that you are not satisfied with this poem, it doesn't matter, why don't I make another one for you, how about it?" The poem is called "The Needle". β
Without waiting for Tang Xiaoshi's request, Chu Ming had already taken the initiative to dip in ink and was ready to transcribe new poems for her at any time.
The surrounding people were stunned, and another wave did not stop? And looking at her expression, it seems to be another satirical and sarcastic poem.
Everyone stepped back, for fear of having something to do with Tang Xiaoshi's new poems.
You must know that there is no shortage of upright civil and military attachΓ©s in the DPRK and China, and they are not good at messing up relationships, but they are not vegetarians.
In case they are written, who knows what the emperor's attitude is, they don't dare to joke about their future. Although Chu Sheng is favored, he is not the prince after all, and it is still a question whether he can ascend to the throne in the end.
Tang Xiaoshi didn't sell Guan Zi this time, and directly read it in one go: "Temper a needle a thousand times, and turn it upside down." The eyes are on the buttocks, and they only recognize the clothes but not the people. β
Everyone felt cold in their hearts, and they broke out in a cold sweat...... This woman is too spicy, and this poem is more straightforward than the one just now, and the irony does not decrease but increases.
The eyes are on the buttocks, and they only recognize the clothes but not the people! Isn't it just this group of flattering and clinging villains?
Chu Ming laughed while writing, this woman is really eclectic, her words are not shocking and endless, she can also write such poems, wonderful, very wonderful!
Tang Xiaoshi continued: "If there is poetry, there must be appreciation, now that you don't speak, why don't I invite someone to appreciate it, how about it?" β
Tang Xiaoshi's gaze stayed on Tang Huairen, her titular father, who was hiding behind the crowd.
