Chapter 204: Demons
Only then did Li Chengqian know what the burden Zhang Yun was talking about, the wealthy family? You don't have to think about it, the five surnames and seven hopes must be mixed in. I thought that these guys would retreat from the difficulties, but they didn't even play yin, play yang?
Seeing that Li Chengqian's face was not good-looking, Li Gang sneered and said, "What boy, do you think that the old man will not be defeated?" ”
Li Chengqian shook his head: "No, your knowledge, the disciples naturally know, but this Jinglun Society, there is no shortage of talents in this area among the wealthy clans, if they are in a wheel war, you may not be able to withstand it." Although you're a top donkey, you can't stand a group of lower bullies, right? ”
Hearing the disciple's sycophants, Li Gang's face softened. As everyone knows, all this fell in the eyes of Yang Du and others, and it was indeed a naked provocation. This old immortal is clearly showing off his apprentices with his brothers.
Bastard! The old man will also choose one or two relatives among the students tomorrow, and he will not let your old man specialize in beauty!
"Wheel warfare is inevitable, and even if they don't use wheel warfare, in terms of Jinglun, the old man is not sure of victory, if you really want to say it, the old man is on the same level as the patriarch of the Hao clan, as long as the old monster in their clan comes out, the old man may be defeated."
Although the five surnames are annoying, the most important thing in their group is people, well, talents. They can gain the respect of the world, the respect of the court, and the fear of the royal family because of their huge heritage. And the most indispensable thing about the heritage of the family is people.
Yang Du also frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Lao Li's words are not admitted, the old man once discussed knowledge with an elder of the Wang family five years ago, and many juniors were in front of him at that time, that is, Wang Lao'er left two thin noodles for the old man, otherwise he would not have been able to get off the stage at that time." ”
Hearing Yang Du say this, everyone was surprised.
Lao Yang was originally a member of the Yang family, although he was a distant relative of the royal family, but during the Sui Dynasty, he used the cheap of the heavenly family to read a wide range of books, and his knowledge was recognized by everyone as inferior. Even he almost couldn't get off the stage, let alone them.
Seeing that all the great Confucians were worried, Li Chengqian smiled: "Gentlemen, are we taking it for granted? Since the family has a deep heritage, why do we have to compare with them? Isn't it better than Wencai? ”
Li Gang glanced at Li Chengqian, and said with a heaval voice: "Boy, it's Shiwen, do you think we are their opponents?" Don't look at their fame, you must know that there is no shortage of good poets in the clan! ”
At this time, Li Chengqian's laughter became more confident: "Gentlemen, the boy thinks that we may not be able to win, as long as..."
Listening to Li Chengqian's words, several old gentlemen also laughed, Yao Silian smiled shyly: "Although the old man is repairing the Liang book, but our story of the Tang Dynasty also wants to record it, and when the Liang book is repaired, the old man will record this matter in the Tang book, and publicize it well." After all, it is a major event in the prosperous literary world, how can it be done without heavy color. ”
Hearing Yao Silian's words, several Confucians couldn't help laughing, as long as it is a history book written by Yao Silian, even if it is a Tang book, future generations will definitely pursue it, so such an embarrassment.... A grand event in the literary world must really be famous through the ages.
Yang Du glanced at Li Chengqian with distrust, frowned, and said: "The prince's literary talent, the old man doesn't doubt it, but..."
Without waiting for Yang Du to finish speaking, Li Gang said leisurely: "Old Yang, how about it, do you want to gamble again, the old man's house hasn't lived for a while, I'm afraid it's all dust, and there is a lack of cleaning." ”
Last time, Yang Du really paid out. Although it was just a joke between their old men, as long as the gambling agreement was established, even if the head was arched, it would definitely be completed.
As soon as his heart was crossed, he was about to agree, but he was dragged by Chen Sidao.
Old man Chen knows Li Gang too well, as long as he says so, he must have confidence.
It's just that I don't know, how can he have such confidence in the prince, although the blue is better than the blue, but the eleven-year-old is more than eighty years old, is it possible?
After finalizing what to do, the bell rang for the end of recess time, and several old gentlemen who had classes hurried to the classroom.
Pushing the old gentleman out of the conference room, Li Chengqian smiled and said, "Master Li, the disciple will go back to Chang'an and ask for advice from his father!" ”
Li Gang nodded, his old man felt that Li Chengqian, who was able to write "The Tang Dynasty Boy's Sayings", was probably really able to handle it.
When he arrived at the college in the morning, Li Chengqian didn't even eat lunch, so he went back to Chang'an.
After seeing that the emperor's father wanted what he wanted, Li Chengqian wrote a piece of paper with a wicked smile and sent it to the college printing house, and then asked the prince, who had just recovered to full capacity, to post the notice everywhere.
Chang'an people are used to seeing the government from time to time, so they don't ask what the column has updated. The farmer who didn't even know how to write his name was not interested in words, unless it was a very important matter, but at that time there must be literate people who would read it and pass it on to each other.
The common people didn't care much, but the nobles, families, and officials paid special attention. The one who has obtained the Taiji Hall now is now the one who has completely confirmed the position of the Ninety-Five Honor, and the people below have to look at his face and act.
I thought that the emperor had issued some kind of notice again, but when they saw the beginning, they were confused.
"Too.... Prince's Sect? ”
"What's the matter, the prince actually sent out the prince's teaching?"
Stupid people will only think that the prince issued the prince's teaching, but the smart people know that the prince has not been involved in politics now, and if he wants to issue the prince's teaching, he must have obtained the emperor's consent. In this way, even if this is the prince's religion, it can be regarded as the emperor's meaning.
Once again, the wealthy families of Chang'an gathered, and after hearing that the prince had taught it, they immediately ordered their children to see the contents.
Zheng Jiao, the head of the Zheng family in Xingyang, came to Chang'an this time with the purpose of promoting the family's reputation.
The stupid Qinghe Cui clan was defeated by the prince because of the locust plague, and Cui Ba's sad bastard went crazy in the court again, not only the Qinghe Cui clan, but even they were affected, and they were accused of bullying the small, and they also had a reputation of "can't afford to lose".
The most important thing in a famous family is the clan, but what is more important than the life of the clan is the face of the family.
After the original head of the family went back, he was revoked, and now that he has become the head of the family, he must get back the field that the previous one lost!
Just as he was pinching the teacup and about to crush it, the clansmen who went out to check on the Prince Sect came back.
"Returning to the head of the family, the prince taught that the academy was unwilling to discuss the scriptures with the big family, they admitted defeat, if they really wanted to discuss, they should not bully the small with the big, and bully the small with the more. The academy had just been founded, and it lacked the most books. The family shouldn't be ignorant of this kind of thing, and now they have to compete, and they don't know what it means.
The prince also said that although the academy is not as good as the scriptures, if it is compared to poetry and songs, they don't even need to send a great Confucian to appear, just the prince alone, he can completely destroy my family. On June 23, the crown prince set up a ring in front of the academy, and when the time came, not only the wealthy families, but also the ministers of civil and military affairs, even the old farmers in the countryside, could challenge him. If you lose, you can take the academy's signboard completely. ”
"Just the crown prince? Hehehe, my family is really underestimated! What about poetry and songs? It's just a trail! Zheng Jiang, pass on my patriarch's order, among the Zheng clan in Chang'an, those who are conceited in poetry and songs have strong points, they all came to the old man's mansion, and after the old man took the school in front of them, he took them to smash the signboard of the college! The sins of heaven are forgivable, but they cannot live if they do their own sins! ”
Zheng Jiang saw that the patriarch of his family was smiling terribly, and he couldn't help but see the prince a little clearly.
Flashy kids! At the age of eleven, you dare to be so rampant, and it depends on how you end!
The same thing happened in various mansions in Chang'an. When he learned that the prince actually set up the ring to challenge all the wealthy families, he was furious, and swore that he wanted the prince to look good.
June 23, it is the midsummer season, from the early morning, there are constantly horse-drawn carriages out of Fang City, out of Chang'an City. It's just one or two, and it's too much for an endless stream!
The citizens of Chang'an, who didn't get the opportunity to walk the streets, were just about to open their mouths to complain, but they saw the forbidden army coldly, and immediately grabbed their butts to avoid both sides. Sure enough, not long after, His Majesty the Emperor's Imperial Throne also passed by.
Oh my God, what day is it? Why are the nobles crazy, and His Majesty the Emperor is also crazy?
Ordinary people naturally don't know the truth, but who has an identity doesn't know, today is the day when writers from all walks of life go to the academy to make an appointment.
The court meeting was not opened, and the emperor ordered the court to be suspended for one day the day before, and asked all civil and military officials to go to the academy, and those who were talented and learned could play casually, so as to teach the prince what modesty is.
The courtiers naturally did not take this sentence seriously, judging from the fact that the previous officials were far away, the emperor was obviously towards the crown prince, and even such a major event as the killing of the envoys of the Japanese State was over. Today's strike is not so much that he can't miss such a grand event, but that the emperor is going to support his son.
On the bank of the Weishui River, the forbidden army, Zuo Wuwei, and the prince personally took the lead in checking all the venues, and everyone who entered the venue had to be searched.
Li Chengqian sat on a makeshift wooden ring, and the so-called ring was nothing more than a wooden platform slightly higher than the ground. The things on the platform are simple, two chairs facing each other, and two tables standing side by side.
The chairs prepared in the warehouse for the later students were moved outside by the diligent early students. At this time, it doesn't matter if you are a wealthy family or a minister of civil and military affairs, you will sit the same. The only difference is that the emperor and the old gentlemen of the academy are all old gentlemen, and it is not good for the old waist to make a hard bench, so they sit on fur sofas.
This time, there were a lot of onlookers, all of them came to see the excitement, and they could only stay outside the forbidden army encirclement if they were not enough, and that's it, they couldn't help but stretch their necks to see what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked like. In the past, he only knew that the prince was kind-hearted and benevolent, but now the prince has to challenge those bearded old Confucians at a young age, and he is really a young hero.
While everyone was waiting, the emperor's car, Shanshan, was late.
When the emperor entered, everyone naturally had to salute. Without those later problems, even civilians just bowed and saluted. The emperor did not travel officially, and he did not put on a show, so he naturally did not need to pay a big salute.
After getting off the imperial chariot, Li Shimin was invited to the judge's seat by Li Tai with a smile.
When the emperor was seated, the people sat down again.
The emperor appeared here, and he didn't know if it was good or bad.
After taking a sip of tea, Li Shimin looked left and right, and saw that there were many famous Confucians in Luoyang and other places, so he nodded. These people are extremely square people, and they must be very credible. Starting.. ..
Seeing that everyone present was almost there, Li Chengqian walked to the ring and saluted slightly: "Everyone, Lone is the prince of the Tang Dynasty and the vice president of Zhenguan Academy, but today he is simply here as the vice president of Zhenguan Academy. I heard that many people think that the teaching strength of our college is insufficient, and it is suspected of misleading people's children, and it should have been Master Li who set up the ring here. However, Master Li is too old, and he has a disciple to serve him, so today he is alone here to set up the ring. Those who come to fight, if they can't even fight an eleven-year-old kid like Gu, let alone challenge Li Shi's kind of jokes! ”
As soon as the words fell, a guy who looked like a servant walked out and went into the ring without hesitation.
In line with the principle of friendship first, Li Chengqian completed the exchange of gifts with him.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the villain is a servant of the Wang family, I heard that you are in the ring, no matter who you can challenge, I wonder if the villain is qualified?"
looked at the clear calluses on the hands of this "servant", and I didn't know what kind of work he was doing in the Wang family, so that he could grind out the same traces as holding a pen.
However, the identity of the servants is also interesting, the wealthy families are not stupid, since Li Chengqian used the identity of Li Gang's disciples to put in the ring, they can also use their own "servants" to fight. No matter who it is, it doesn't hurt to lose, it is to win.... Hey.
Even so, there were still people in the audience who couldn't help but reveal the true identity of the servant.
"Servants, phew. This old man knows that Wang Qiao, who is directly related to the Wang family, is the one who has made up his mind to go all over the world and learn from hundreds of schools. I heard that this person's literary style is abnormal, and it is the old family of the Jiangnan Jin Dynasty, and no one can restrain him. ”
"The prince was originally a disciple of Master Li, so it is also decent to put in the ring like this, and it is also a good talk to fight for the teacher, but the Wang family is a bit deceitful to do this!"
....
Ignoring the discussion in the audience, nodding, Li Chengqian said: "Since Lone said that anyone is allowed to come, it naturally has nothing to do with his identity, I don't know this servant, what project are you going to challenge Lone?" ”
The servants of the Wang family showed a row of white teeth: "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made a decision, then the two of us might as well write poems!" Since it is the villain's choice of the project, the title of this poem is asked to come up with the prince. ”
Li Chengqian shook his head: "It's so inappropriate, if Lone is a proposition, it will inevitably fall into the hands of others, saying that Lone found someone to do a good job of poetry in advance." It's better to...."Li Chengqian looked at the venue, and according to the signal given by Zhang Yun outside the venue, his eyes fell on Wang Ying, the new head of the Wang family.
"It's better to let this old man solve the problem."
Scold.
Ignoring everyone's surprised gazes, Wang Ying got up directly and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pointed at it casually, but I didn't expect it to point to the old man, hehe, but the old man will not fall into the wrong hands, so let's let Your Majesty ask the question." ”
After speaking, he arched his hand to the emperor on the judges' seat.
Seeing that the ball was kicked back again, Li Shimin smiled: "Mr. Wang will find my head, but it's okay, I have already prepared, come, take a box and some papers, let everyone present write a question, and find someone to randomly select it." ”
The emperor's methods can be called impartial, and even the person who picks the topic is a thin peasant randomly selected from the crowd.
Soon, the young peasant pulled out a piece of paper and carefully held it to the sergeant, who held it aloft and placed it in front of the emperor.
Unfolding the paper, Li Shimin smiled slightly, spread out the note and said, "This topic is simple, spring." ”
Spring?
Everyone looked at each other, and this seemed to be a little simpler.
Sure enough, Wang Qiao opened his mouth almost after walking a few steps: "Spring, the spring breeze passes through the south of the Yangtze River, and the moss grows on the steps." The continuous apricot blossom rain, the branches are safe. ”
As soon as the verses were read, there was a shout of applause.
It can become a good five-character poem in a few steps, and its literary style is not inferior to Cao Zhi at all.
It's just surprising that just as Wang Qiao began to return the salute, the silent prince over there also spoke
And, as soon as you open your mouth, it's endless!
"The return of the grassland: the north of the city in the clouds is barren to the west, and the grass is low in the clouds. Several marmots compete for warm slopes, and whose cattle and sheep step on the spring mud. The flowers are gradually charming to the eye, and the asakusa can have no horseshoe. The favorite grassland line is insufficient, and the green plain is draped in spring clothes. ”
After reading it, Li Chengqian still admired his wisdom a little. Although you can't compose a poem alone, you can learn from it! As long as there is a format, it is good to change the words and sentences in it. As for those who have learned pinyin, it is not too simple to replace one or two words or something.
After stealing the joy, but did not hear the cheers, Li Chengqian raised his head and saw that people, including Wang Qiao, were all looking at him in dismay.
"This.... But there is a problem with the lone poem? ”
The prince's voice sounded, and everyone in the audience came back to their senses.
Today, it was really an eye-opener!
In the past, Wang Qiao became a poem in a few steps, and now there is a prince who is slightly behind, but it is not a level at all!
Wang Qiao's poem, although it is good, is a five-word poem, and the four sentences add up to only twenty words.
And what about the crown prince? Seven words! It adds up to 56 words!!
It's just such a space, the key is not casual nonsense, it is all the personal experience of the prince on the return from his expedition to the grassland. After listening to the whole process, it seems that I am also in the team that has returned from victory, and I appreciate the grassland that I have been disgusted with in the past.
This....
After recognizing the facts, including several ancestor-level figures who are the "hole cards" of the family, they all showed surprise.
Those who write hard and think hard to become poets should be everyone, such as Cao Zhi Wang Qiao who became a poet with five words and four sentences in a few steps, should be a genius; So, what should a person who becomes a poem in a few steps?
Yang Du in the judges' seat, his hand holding the teacup was trembling. couldn't help but faux pas and pointed at the prince and asked Li Gang: "The demon you taught?" ”
Li Gang smiled: "The old man doesn't have this kind of talent, it's nothing more than the master leading him into the door, and the cultivation depends on the individual." Lao Yang, you can find a disciple, but can you find a demon like the old man's disciple? ”
Not only Yang Du, but the teacups in Li Shimin's hands fell on the table.
I used to think that the prince might be very good at poetry, but after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he still wanted to find an opportunity to let the kid see how powerful Lao Tzu was. It's just that today, looking at this, it's better not to fight with your son.
Well.
Wang Ying was already ready to accept compliments and show off her family by the way, but now, she sat in front of the chair without knowing it.
It's hard to live up to the fame! The prince's intelligence is like a demon, and he really didn't brag about it!
