Chapter 174: Supporting the Scene
After sorting out his thoughts a little, Zhou Ning ordered a table of food and began to eat, while eating, he listened to people's discussions, about various things that have happened in Luoyang recently, literati exchanges, poetry meetings, etc. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
I found a place to live in Luoyang City. Forget it, it's been nearly a week since I came to the ancient world this time, and the semi-finals of the Hidden Dragon Race are imminent, and it's almost time for me to go back to the modern era. Now the top priority is to first visit my uncle, the ancients were the most filial piety, Shang Xiufang's date can be postponed for the time being, you can go at any time, but you can't delay going to see your cheap uncle......
Zhou Ning thought so, and the discussion on the other side also reached a white-hot level.
"Shhh...... As soon as this poem came out, Wang Maha's title of 'Poetry Buddha' should be firmly seated...... At that time, the literary tone of this poem was already seven inches, and at the scene of the literary meeting, more than 30 top literati of all sizes looked at each other, and no one could compete with him. β
"According to this, Wang Majie's position as the champion this year should be stable, right?"
"I'm afraid it's hard to say, Li Xunhuan of Taiyuan, Su Shi of Bashu, and Li Taibai of Jiannan are all talents for a while, and the world's talents, that is, gathered in the Eastern Capital, the matter of taking the champion can be very variable."
Just like later generations, the land of the capital, all kinds of things and information in the world, gathered together, the literati of the northern and southern provinces, the top-notch characters all gather with this, the people of the capital often like to talk about these things, especially in the last two months are the imperial examination, it is the highest peak of the talent gathering in the capital, the north and south cities of Luoyang City, the Qinglou Chu Pavilion has a lot of income, several literary meetings are done well, a talented man named Sima Changqing made "Zi Xuan Fu" in the Guishou Garden of the Ying Valve. It has been rated as the highest peak of poetry for hundreds of years, and there is the legacy of poetry at the same time, and the literary brilliance is breathtaking.
After making "Zi Xuan Fu", this Sima Changqing got the blue eyes of Master Li of the Oiran in the capital again, in the past two days. It has become a good story spread in Luoyang, and it is vaguely comparable to Wang Wei, Li Bai, Su Shi, and Wang Bo, who are known as the four great talents of the Great Sui at this time.
β¦β¦ Sprinkled with enthusiasm and atmosphere. This Sima Changqing can be called the above-mentioned mastery...... I'm not even 20 years old this year. It reminds me of Yangziyun...... "The Yangziyun in this mouth is Yangxiong, a famous rhetoric family in the Qi Dynasty, and in the previous life, there was also a saying that "Xie Ma came alone to find a story, and the article was ashamed of Yang Xiong". This person can compare Sima Changqing to Yangxiong, which is enough to prove the other party's achievements.
In front of the window on the other side, another person raised his head: "If you take papers, it may be possible to compete with Yangziyun, but ...... Speaking of Yangtze Ziyun, this person has an allusion to the white head of the poor scripture, and I think of a poem: 'Who can write your Excellency...... Bai Shou Taixuanjing', Sima Changqing is afraid that he can't compare to the famous No. 1 talent in Yangzhou......"
"That's a poem that can be passed down to the world, so I don't need to compare it for the time being, if I come to Jingshi, I'm afraid that I can compete with Wang Majie and Li Taibai." Someone said this, and there were all voices of approval next to him.
Although he has already had psychological construction, after hearing that someone put himself, Li Xunhuan and Wang Wei, Li Bai, Su Shi and other literary masters side by side, Zhou Ning still couldn't help but feel a little bit of disobedience.
Twitter, this group of people chatted into the port, not far away, a woman was singing Liu Yong's new words: "...... I plan to get drunk with a crazy picture, and I have no taste for wine as a song. The belt gradually widened and did not regret it, and it made people haggard for Yi. β
Spend a while here, the rain is still falling, the sky is darker than usual, the lights outside are lit up in spots, Zhou Ning went out from here, walked to the street to buy an umbrella, thought about it, and bought some gifts in the shop across the street, identified the direction, and walked towards the west side of the north and south streets.
Zhou Ning had heard Li Shimin say before that the official residences of Sui Dynasty officials were not located in the old city of Luoyang, but on the west side of the imperial road, a corner of the new capital.
Zhou Ning passed by the "Tribute Academy" and looked inside curiously, not knowing if there was an extremely strong sage atmosphere inside, whether the Confucian students, examiners, scholars, and half-saints inside were like the Confucianism and Taoism in the holy world. Further on is the extremely dense official mansion, the same ordinary house is no different, there are two large stone lions standing at the door, which looks very majestic.
A few servants passing by asked Zhou Yue's mansion clearly, Zhou Ning identified the direction, and it didn't take long for him to come to a mansion, and a rather gorgeous carriage was parked outside the door.
The visit to the Zhou Mansion was an ordinary programmed thing, and after announcing his name and giving gifts to the concierge, Zhou Ning was admitted to the main hall to serve tea. Not far away, a somewhat good-looking scholar was already sitting there, holding a scroll in his hand, glanced at Zhou Ning, and saw that it was a white body, thinking that he was also here to invest in the scroll, he nodded at him quite reservedly, and didn't say anything. Zhou Ning naturally wouldn't go up to talk to him, the tea brewed in this era is still old-fashioned cooking, which is quite unpalatable, Zhou Ning picked it up and drank a few sips, and after a while, Zhou Yue walked out happily with a scroll in his hand.
"Zhou Xiang, in the chin Shu Sima Changqing......" The scholar stood up, took the first step forward, and bowed to the end.
"Oh...... But is Sima Changqing who does "Zi Xuan Fu"? Zhou Yue glanced at Sima Changqing, motioned him to wait for a while, and then walked towards Zhou Ning.
Sima Changqing's smile was a little stiff, and he glanced at Zhou Ning in some surprise, as if he was not sure of his identity.
Compared with the contact in Yangzhou, Zhou Yue's beard at this time was half white, and he looked much older, but he was also more majestic. He saluted Zhou Yue according to the number of courtesies, and Zhou Yue smiled and waved his hand: "It's all my own family, I don't have to see outside, I don't have to see outside, nephew Ning." Have a seat. It's been a long time. I heard that you were seriously injured during this time in Yangzhou, you are still young, so don't leave any injuries behind. β
"It's okay, it's okay now."
"Well......" Zhou Yue nodded and glanced at him up and down: "I haven't seen you for more than a month, I have condensed Wenxin, very good, worthy of being the Qilin of the Zhou family." By the way, I know what is going on in Yangzhou, and I have listened to a few of your poems, and I have done a good job, especially "Chivalrous Travel", which is superb, and even Wang Maha can't do it, but what you do in Yangzhou is a bit reckless. β
Zhou Yue thought about it, put down the scroll in his hand, and said seriously: "Mencius said: 'If it is not fate, obey it, so those who know their fate do not stand under the rock wall. Those who die in their own way are righteous; Shackling the dead is not the right fate. 'You are a scholar, and it is not your turn to do the things that charge into battle, you are good, and you also beheaded Yingbu, punished Zhu Hai, killed Huan Chu, and even killed Zhong Liwu easily, General Zhang Xutuo is known as invincible in marksmanship, and you are not so able to fight, my Zhou family has been martial arts and cultivators all their lives, but when it comes to your generation, the talent is first-class, but now the saint wants to recruit you as a military attachΓ©, do you say that it is not a shame to be ashamed? Zhou Yue's tone was a little affectionate, and Zhou Ning had no choice but to bow his head and listen.
Knight's ......
Of course, Sima Xiangru had heard this poem, and after listening to Zhou Yue's words at this time, he had confirmed Zhou Ning's identity, and his smile was already extremely reluctant.
"Now that it's already a boat, I can't say anything, you go to the house in two days, and I'll take you to see the emperor, huh...... I know you don't really want to see your aunt, but in Luoyang in the future, you should still come to my side to walk around, to be honest, after taking this position, I have been worried all night, and the family is full of some uneasy things. β
Zhou Yue was full of fists, Zhou Ning naturally didn't want to refuse, and agreed, and then Zhou Yue asked Zhou Ning about the things along the way, putting aside the vicious fight with Xiang Yu, Zhou Ning roughly said what he saw and heard along the way, including Wagangzhai, Li Zitong and Chu Jun. Zhou Yue nodded and sighed: "It's difficult for Da Sui." β
"By the way, Du Mu and Mi Fu also came to Luoyang to catch the exam these days, and you young people are looking for time to get together. The land of the capital. There are a lot of talented people who are talented and learned, this Sima ...... It's a talented character. β
Sima Changqing was about to die of embarrassment at this time, so he arched his hand and said, "Under Sima Changqing." β
"Well, Sima Changqing. Nephew Ning, since you are here, you can also see the demeanor of the world's talents. In the past few days, I asked Du Muzhi to accompany you to walk around, whether it is to participate in the literary meeting or the poetry meeting, so that they can see your talent. β
Speaking of which, the time is not early, and it is agreed to meet again in the Prime Minister's Mansion two days later, Zhou Ning gave up his hand and said goodbye, and after a while, Sima Changqing walked out in a very embarrassed manner, stared at Zhou Ning, and snorted: "The villain who bullies people." Then he boarded the carriage and sailed away.
Zhou Ning looked at Sima Changqing with some dumbfounded, what kind of person is this, what is this......
After dinner, the rain gradually stopped, Zhou Ning returned to Chongwen Building, returned to the room, dressed back to modern times, and sorted out a few various clothes and daily necessities to be worn in Luoyang. Not long after, someone came and knocked on the door, after Zhou Ning opened the door. Outside, Du Thirteen, who was wearing a pale white Confucian shirt, then smiled at him.
"I haven't seen Nakado for a long time! Do you have time tonight? β
"Of course ......"
The two hadn't seen each other for more than a month, they looked at each other and smiled, Zhou Ning looked at the sky outside, the clouds and rain had stopped, and a bright moon hung in the sky, and it was not too late, "Since it was Brother Du's invitation, it was natural to take time out, if you have anything to say, let's go out and talk about it." β
Du Shisan laughed, nodded, and the two walked out of Chongwen Building.
"I called you out tonight, one is to get together and leave the relationship, and the other is to ask you to support the scene for me......"
