Chapter 068: Mr. Gui's Rules!
The name of the hydrological meeting is well deserved, not only the talents gathered on the island in the middle of the lake, but also set up a high platform, on the high platform, Yangzhou Tongzhi Liang Quanyi Liang sat in the middle, Liang Daren under the eight counties of Yangzhou Zhixian came in person, in addition there are counties and counties, the main Bo, the state school, the county school of all walks of life adults are also gathered here, there are dozens of people wearing official robes on the high platform.
Under the high platform, talents from all walks of life gathered in different painting boats, and these painting boats were cleverly connected together, guarding the high platform together.
After looking at such a venue, and then looking at the venue of the Zhang family's Guanshan Poetry Society, it was really more than grit between gold and jade, Zhang Chengxi thought that he would challenge the Hydrological Society through the Guanshan Poetry Society, which was completely an ignorant joke and a spiritual fantasy of Ah Q.
Lu Zheng felt that it was an eye-opener, he followed behind Qin Yue, listened with his ears, learned with his heart, and was extra attentive.
In addition to the talents, the beauties at the literary meeting are also the protagonists, the beautiful and talented women on the Slender West Lake Painting Boat have been carefully dressed up today and appeared in various painting boats, among them, Du Yueniang, Ding Zi, and Luo Qiaoqiao, among the four major Oiran in Yangzhou, all appeared.
Oiran appears, can always cause a violent commotion in the crowd, the top Oiran are very good at controlling the situation, figuring out people's hearts, today's situation is a literary meeting, to put it bluntly, it is a place for talented people to fight.
The fight between men is nothing more than fame, money, and beauty, and the oirans are now famous, and if anyone shines at the literary meeting today, they can win the hearts of beautiful women, and even hold the beauty, which is the biggest gimmick of the literary society.
Beauties love talents, and many talented people naturally work hard to make a big splash at today's literary meeting, Qin Yue, as one of the four masters of stopping water, his appearance quickly caused a commotion.
Qin Yue and Chen Gui each have a group of supporters, and the relationship between these two people and several major Oiran is extraordinary, Chen Gui is said to be in love with Qi Lan, while Qin Yue has an ambiguous relationship with Du Yueniang.
Today, Qilan is not here, but when Du Yueniang appeared, she walked straight to Qin Yue's side and said, "Today's Wenhui, the slave family will look at the great talent of the son!" Childe just show his talent, and the slave family will cheer for you! ”
Du Yueniang, a woman, has a long and slender figure, a waist and limbs, her face is covered with a white veil, and her beautiful facial features are like shadows, which is really very amorous.
Her look at Qin Yue this differently caused a commotion, and countless people looked at Qin Yue with envy and jealousy, Qin Yue was certainly happy, but his hatred value also increased.
The water stop literature will be eclectic, there are those who talk about the current text, there are those who talk about poetry, and there are those who talk about words have their own themes.
On poetry, it is necessary to limit the rhyme in the topic, everyone composes poems, and then comments on each other, and the lyrics are roughly the same, Qin Yue is really good, he patrols all the way, and stays in various painting boats, but there are challenges to be met, he can easily deal with them, it can really be said that he is proficient in the current text, poetry and songs.
Looking at Chen Gui and him again, Chen Gui is a bit more high-profile, he has more followers around him, and he laughs and scolds, but any talent who challenges him and loses will be sneered at by him.
Seeing those talented people who were red-faced and red-eared and retreated in shame, Chen Gui was extremely proud, laughing unruly, looking at his appearance, he really had the demeanor of a talented man of Wei and Jin.
Lu Zheng just hid behind Qin Yue, keeping a low profile everywhere, and he went all the way unimpeded, and no one came to challenge him. In fact, everyone in the Hydrological Society is here for fame, and most newcomers are holding back their energy to become famous, so they are vying for the limelight everywhere.
There are very few newcomers like Lu Zheng who are low-key and don't speak, and other people don't know him, who would provoke a nobody?
In this way, Lu Zheng mixed up at the Hydrological Meeting, and the more he mixed up, the more he became like a fish in water, and then he simply did not follow behind Qin Yue, but chose a painting boat to sit down, and quietly studied other people's current texts.
If you want to make a name for yourself through reading, everything is decided by the scientific examination, which shows the importance of the text.
The talents above the Hydrostatic Society are all masters of Shiwen, because anyone who is qualified to participate in the Hydrological Society is at least a showman, and there is no white body like Lu Zheng.
For the talents who are preparing to participate in the township examination, or for the people who are preparing to participate in the examination, next year's autumn is a great opportunity.
In fact, in this kind of literary meeting, everyone is still fighting for literature, and in this process, the aspects involved are relatively narrow, and they cannot fully reflect their respective current literary levels.
When a topic comes out, it will be solved within a few minutes, and the topic is too complicated, and it is obviously not realistic, this kind of relatively simple and basic topic, more to consider the agility of their own talents, and it is not necessarily beneficial to improve their own current level.
However, this situation is too suitable for Lu Zheng, he has recently painstakingly studied Shiwen, not only composed essays but also memorized a large number of Shiwen, so far, he has memorized more than 100 Shiwen.
After all, solo research is not as good as someone to solve the problem, and there are also masters who solve the problem on the spot and take on the problem, which is especially rare for him.
What he lacks is precisely these basic things, if you really want to talk about poetry and songs, he has been a human being in two lives, and there are really a lot of poems and songs in his stomach, and they are all classics, just weak in the current text, weak in the foundation.
These times and literature are not worth mentioning in the eyes of real talents, but Lu Zheng is like a treasure, his spirit is very concentrated, and he is highly devoted.
Whenever someone came up with a question, he immediately began to ponder, and when someone was the first to solve the question, and then took the question, he compared the answer in his heart with the answerer's answer one by one, and every time he found that he had grasped the main point, he was very excited, and felt that his hard work these days had not been in vain.
In this way, Lu Zheng specially picked Shiwen's painting boat to wander around, and before he knew it, a few hours had passed, and he didn't even notice it.
At noon, two cannons rang out on Jiangxin Island, and all the talented people stopped fighting, and everyone came out of their respective boats and went to the deck.
On the deck is guarded by a high platform, on which many VIP officials gathered, overlooking the Slender West Lake, eight dragon boats have been waiting for them.
The first stage of the Hydrostatic Society is the free fight, this stage is to fight separately, and it is deliberately set aside for talented people to meet friends and brew their talents.
The real time to decide is in the back, all the talented people gather together, or compose, or compose, or compose, or compose.
Whether it is poetry and songs, they have to be written by the VIPs on the high platform to limit the rhyme, and generally speaking, the questions are extremely difficult, only the most talented people can stand out, in order to finally become the focus of everyone's attention.
At this time, when everyone gathered together, the atmosphere suddenly became solemn and tense, and Lu Zheng could clearly feel that everyone around him was excited.
On the high platform, an old man in Confucian clothes slowly paced to the front, seeing that the old man had a clear face, sharp eyes, and strong spirits.
"Wow, Zeng Shan has grown such a big aura!" Someone whispered, and Lu Zheng understood in his heart that the old man in front of him was Zeng Guoning, the mountain chief of Zhishui Academy.
Zeng Guoning and Gui Liang are also called "Zeng Gui", both are famous Confucian scholars in Yangzhou, Zeng Guoning founded the Zhishui Academy, and now the Zhishui Academy has become the golden sign of Yangzhou, and Zeng Guoning's name is even more famous.
And Gui Liang has been traveling and lecturing outside, a few years ago after returning to Yangzhou actually became the head of Guanshan Academy, Guanshan Academy is nameless, but it is just a academy organized by businessmen, Gui Liang became the head of Guanshan Academy, the academy has not improved.
Secretly, some people say that Gui Liang should be the head of the academy, and his personal name is on par with Zeng Guoning, so that's all.
Zeng Guoning swept his eyes to everyone and said: "Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, it is the day of dragon boat racing, our hydrological meeting will be held as scheduled, and the theme of today's literary meeting is the poetry meeting."
As the head of Guanshan Academy, I only have one request, that is, today's Dragon Boat Festival, which is in the scorching summer, and the poems and lyrics are not allowed to be sad in spring and autumn.
Since ancient times, poetry has always been inseparable from the trap of sad spring and autumn, but it is a pity that we will stop the hydrological meeting today, and set this first rule! ”
As soon as Zeng Guoning finished speaking, there was already a commotion below.
The rule Zeng Guoning said doesn't sound like a rule at first glance, it doesn't seem to be worth mentioning, but if you take a closer look, this rule is really amazing, because since ancient times, anyone who uses poetry to express lyrics is indeed sad and sad, and most of them are allegorical in the scene.
Zeng Guoning's sentence is not allowed to hurt spring and autumn, which can be said to have made the topic very restricted, such as "falling leaves", "swallows go", "flowers falling" and so on can not be used, because this is autumn.
For example, "catkins", "small lotus", "apricot blossoms", "peach and plum blossoms" cannot be used, because it is "spring", a work of poetry, there is no spring and autumn, only winter and summer, is this still poetry?
In the huge commotion, many people became nervous, and some people had already whispered that Zeng Guoning's restrictions were too strict, Zeng Guoning stood on the high platform and said loudly:
"Everyone, this is not from my mouth, you don't know, today in addition to the water station, there are three poetry meetings in Yangzhou, these three poetry meetings have the rules of not hurting the spring and autumn. This rule was set by Mr. Gui Liang, everyone, the rules set by Mr. Gui will not scare you? ”
Zeng Guoning said this at a very high level, as soon as he said this, the commotion in the audience was instantly quiet, since it was Gui Liangding's rules, what else was there to say? Could it be that the Hydrological Society can't compare to the so-called Mountain Poetry Society?
