Chapter 85:-for-tat
Everyone sat down on the second floor of Bisong Pavilion, a table of eight immortals, and a vacant place, and the people who were waiting around were all quiet and did not make a sound, and they hung their heads smoothly and were very well-behaved.
After three rounds of drinking, Zheng Zeming looked out of the window at the early autumn scenery outside, and felt relaxed and happy, and couldn't help but see the scenery, shook his head and said: "The fishermen of Xinsu are still widespread, and the swallows fly in the early autumn." ”
Zhou Jinhe, who was on the side, left his father's side, but he was a lot more free, and the first one clapped his hands and smiled: "This is the famous sentence of Brother Changjian. ”
"That's right, this poem is through the mouth of Brother Changjian, it is easy to get 100 gold, there was a Buddha picture in ancient times, and now there is Cui Changjian's mouth can produce gold, great wonderful, great wonderful." Cao Xiu, who has always been gentle, said such a sentence suddenly, and anyone could hear the harshness in his words.
Cui Changjian glanced at Cao Xiu, raised his eyebrows, raised his head and swallowed a cup of elixir freely, and then sighed with a smile: "I think that this mouth can make gold, and it is better than some people who cherish themselves with brooms, and it is difficult for ordinary people to ask for a painting." ”
"In my opinion, whether it is a beautiful poem or a wonderful picture, it should be used for everyone to enjoy, what is it to hide it from people to see?"
Cao Xiu sneered and shook his head, "Alas, it's really hard for me to agree with Changjian Gongzi's point of view, in my opinion, whether it is writing poetry or painting, the biggest support is his own inspiration, followed by the influence of the environment, and even whether he has the desire to talk about it is also very important." ”
"If there is no such support, as long as someone wants to want, we have to do it, then the artistic conception of this painting is a big difference, for the request to respond to this, I am willing to bow to the son of Changjian, but I will still insist on my own ideas, and will never go with the flow in order to cater to others."
These sons next to him, after listening to Cao Xiu's words, couldn't help but nod secretly, "It's strange that although there are not many paintings by Cao Sangongzi, each of them can be called masterpieces, and it turns out that it is inseparable from his own philosophy."
Cui Changjian saw his remarks, which attracted everyone to lean towards him, but he said loudly: "What Cao Sangongzi said is very true, I think the literati who like to compose poetry like to put a sentence on their lips, that is, poetry is prosperous!" ”
It can be seen that if there is no poetry, how can you make quatrains? Cao Sangongzi's point of view is reasonable, but these are also closely related to everyone's talents, some people are very talented, and their works are many and fine, and some people's talents are mediocre, and it is reasonable to brew for a long time to get a work. ”
He was not polite at all, so he talked about the level of talent so bluntly, obviously saying that Cao Xiu had no talent.
After listening to Cui Changjian's words, the sons couldn't help but smile and nodded, Zheng Zeming already admired his freedom and liked his talent more, so he naturally said: "Changjian is indeed talented, he has done a lot of poetry in the past two years, but it is not good, basically every song, there are commendable." ”
"And Cao Sangongzi's paintings, although you don't see a lot, but each one is a fine product, and it also benefits me a lot, both of you are handsome for a while, no one is worse than the other, and we admire it."
"It's a great fortune in life to be able to have a drink with a few of you today, come, come, come, for this situation, we drink this cup full!"
Zheng Zeming came forward to play a round, temporarily calming the dispute between these two talents, to tell the truth, these two people are both excellent in appearance, they are also talented, and their personalities are also very good, and they did not rely on their noble birth, so they walked sideways in the academy.
For such two beautiful sons who are not annoying at all, Zheng Zeming really can't favor one to the other, so it is also fair to persuade each other.
Cui Changjian and Cao Xiu's-for-tat just now was not without reason, the two of them were already a little in love with each other in Pengfei Academy, and this was all thanks to Master Cao San.
This old and disrespectful father always likes to count the Cui family in front of his son, especially if he drinks too much, it is even more out of control, and he starts with scolding the Cui family for forgetting his righteousness, and ends with crying and missing his deceased sister and nephew's daughter.
Therefore, Cao Xiu subconsciously has no good impression of the Cui family, and he doesn't see the other Cui family, just Cui Changjian and him are in the same academy, so this one always likes to do it against Cui Changjian who bumped into his eyes.
If it was said that it was a battle of wills at the beginning, then later, both of them were angry, and there was quite a bit of a posture of you and no self.
No, just now in front of the elders, there are still some scruples, no one dares to make a mistake, they are all pretending to be a good baby, this will leave the eyes of the elders, then there is no scruples about the old relapse.
Everyone here knows the problems of these two people, only Zhou Jinhe, a concubine, has no chance to enter Pengfei Academy to study, and they don't know that this behavior of these two people is really normal.
I swallowed my saliva very nervously, wanting to persuade one or two and make a round, but I didn't know where to start, seeing Zheng Zeming open his mouth to persuade, what he said was reasonable, and he was very envious in his heart, and he couldn't help but yearn for Pengfei Academy.
Zheng Zeming glanced at Cui Changhao, then at Cao Yun, poured himself a glass of wine with a smile, took a sip comfortably, and secretly laughed at these two brothers, who were really calm.
Cui Changhao is a person who has been in the officialdom for several years, and when he felt Zheng Zeming's eyes, his expression remained unchanged at all.
Picked up the ivory chopsticks, slowly sandwiched the chopsticks fish fillet, squinted his eyes and praised: "Today's fish fillet is full of taste, enter the virtuous brother to taste it."
He persuaded the guests to taste the food here, and the two talented men in the room couldn't help but stab again.
Not to mention, Cui Changjian and Cao Xiu are both well-educated people, full of knowledge, and they are not the kind of people who read dead books, not only are they full of words, but also the allusions and examples in each sentence are endless, which sounds much more powerful than the storytelling in the teahouse!
Compared to Cui Changhao's change of place, Cao Yun listened to the two of them talk more and more, and he couldn't sit still, he wanted to leave a good impression on the Cui brothers, his third brother didn't know how to control it, it was really too much of a drag!
He couldn't help frowning, his eyes swept over the few sons on the table, and after he saw Zhou Jinhe's still nervous look when he was eating, he suddenly couldn't help but laugh.
These two people are arguing every day, and all the people around them who are familiar with them are accustomed to it, and one of them comes out suddenly, and it is really a bit of a coke to be so anxious.
He stretched out his hand to pick up the white porcelain jade pot spring bottle on the table, poured a glass of wine for Zhou Jinhe with a smile, and comforted: "Don't worry about Brother Jinhe, these two people are like this, like children, if you don't fight for a day, you won't be able to live in your heart." ”
"Who's the little kid?!"
"Who loves to fight with him?!
Cui Changjian and Cao Xiu were greatly dissatisfied when they heard this, and couldn't help but refute at the same time.
The tone of voice was similar, but it made everyone laugh, and the two of them shouted out, they also felt embarrassed, they glared at each other with a sneer, and they both went to serve the wine cup in front of them, and drank it all!
At this time, even Zhou Jinhe was amused, and the atmosphere was greatly relaxed.
As for Cao Xiu, who has always been gentle and elegant, why can't he get along with Cui Changjian? The reason for this is only Cao Yun guessed so much.
Cao Xiu has been chanted by Cao Sanye for all these years, and subconsciously feels that Second Mrs. Cui treats her stepdaughter harshly, and these people who watch but don't reach out to help are not good things.
Cui Changhao said with a smile: "Third brother, everyone else says that Changjian Gongzi, a poem is worth 100 gold, I don't know if you can give us a poem to help us?" It's just that your eldest brother and I have a meager salary, but there is no 100 gold for you today! Ha ha. ”
Cui Changjian was ridiculed by his eldest brother, and there was no embarrassment on his face, this is also a strange man among literati, probably because he has the blood of the Cui family's ancestors in his bones, and he is born with a love for money.
And he does not hide his preferences, it is strange to say, the more he acts so recklessly, the more others praise him as a frank and unrestrained true gentleman, and now he doesn't need Cui Changjian to open his mouth, people who come to ask for poetry will naturally offer a considerable amount of pen polishing fees.
To put it mildly, he only relies on this one item every month, which will make Cui Changhao's eyes red, so he seized the opportunity to stab this younger brother who was born to make money.
Cui Changjian smiled, stood up, slowly paced to the window, looked at the autumn scenery outside the window, secretly brewed in his heart, and wanted to make a good song, and be ashamed of the guy who could only paint ink lotus!
The people at the table, seeing him frowning and pondering, did not disturb him, and started chatting and laughing in a low voice.
Cui Changhao suddenly asked his third brother to compose poems, and he had the idea of taking him away for a while first, and seeing that the atmosphere was very good, he also raised the corners of his mouth happily.
There is one less of the two picky ones, and the rest of the hair on his body is smooth, and he instantly turns back into an elegant son, sitting with a smile, eating and drinking very elegantly, listening to Cao Yun and Cui Changjian, Zheng Zeming talking about the county test just passed this year.
The Dajing Dynasty is a one-year county test, a one-year government test, and the third year is the year of the capital.
Because Cao Yun does not need the imperial examination as a prince, and although Cao Xiu is famous, his actual age is only twelve or thirteen years old, not only has he passed this year's county examination, but also entered the top three, just waiting for next year's government examination, and then go to test the water.
And for the imperial examination, Cao Xiu is not in a hurry, he actually likes Cui Changyong's current errand, the Hanlin Academy compiles books.
I thought that if I could participate in the future and compile a book that will be famous for all generations!
How honorable it would be to have your name appear on the title page of a book? R1152
