After living in Pingzhou for so long, I finally met this famous prostitute in Pingzhou who overshadowed Qin Elegy in terms of fame.

If it weren't for Qin Elegy's early learning of this Liu Qingyin's identity, just her skin, it would be difficult for ordinary people to think of her as a means, and the city government is extremely scheming.

Women, especially the more beautiful women, are indeed the best at disguise.

Zhang Xiang hurriedly bowed his hand to her: "It is Zhang's honor to be fortunate to meet Miss Liu, Miss Liu doesn't need to be polite, just treat Zhang as a friend." ”

Liu Qingyin smiled lightly: "The status of the concubine is noble, the slave family is just a cloth cloth, and the Qinglou is a handsome person, it is not recommended by Yang Gongzi, how can the slave family be lucky enough to see the concubine." ”

Yang Li, who had already poured wine on the side, laughed and said: "Qingyin, I hit it off with Brother Zhang at first sight, and we regard it as a lifelong confidant, Brother Zhang has a bold personality, and he is not the kind of person who is rigid and restrained, since Brother Zhang is like this, you can do it." ”

Liu Qingyin nodded obediently, took the initiative to raise the wine glass, and said again: "Then the slave family will not be polite to Zhang Gongzi, and drink a glass of himself first to show respect." ”

"This boy is much more comfortable to listen to." Zhang Xiang smiled and gave a toast in return.

Then, the three of them began to talk in the spacious cabin.

, since it is also the story of the wind and snow.

Soon, night slowly fell, and the painting boat had sailed far away, and then quietly stopped on the river.

The three of them didn't drink much, and they talked about some poems and songs.

The talented and beautiful women of this era, most of the topics of the party are also like this, either beauties, celebrities, or poetry and songs.

That's what their leisure is.

State affairs are not allowed to be discussed, and political affairs are not allowed to be discussed.

Liu Qingyin said: "Zhang Gongzi's Mid-Autumn Festival night is a song with the moon to send lovesickness words, Qingyin has long been like thunder, although Qingyin only knows a little about poetry, but even Yang Gongzi is so respected, then presumably this word is indeed not simple, Yang Gongzi thinks that he can't make such words in this life." ”

"That's Brother Yang's modesty." Zhang Xiang hurriedly smiled.

Yang Li is also self-aware, agrees with Liu Qingyin's words, opposes Zhang Xiang's words, and says: "That's right, Brother Zhang's word, I won't dare to do it in the future, but there is no one before it, it is absolute, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first word of the Mid-Autumn Festival through the ages, Yang is not modest, and Yang thinks that he can't do such a word in his life." ”

"There is no first, there is no second, poetry and the like are just done to add fun to the rest of the leisure time, not the real talent, on the real talent, those who do things for the people to govern the world, immediately strong, can be worthy of real talent, they protect my Southern Chu Anbang, make my Southern Chu prosperous, is the country's capable people." Zhang Xiang said this very seriously.

Yang Li thought for a while, and said with a little admiration: "Brother Zhang can have this mentality, he is really a model for my Pingzhou scholars, but Yang is not talented, and he also has some opinions, if he is not talented, Brother Zhang's ministers who govern the world will soon be powerful, and they will all cease to exist." ”

Zhang Xiang also agreed with his point of view and nodded: "Brother Yang, Zhang's meaning is very simple, the poetry is too good, if it can't benefit the people, it will be in vain, and you should not be talented." On the contrary, even if you can't make poetry, but you can do things for the people and benefit the people, then you can be called talented, so I just think that doing good poetry and talent cannot be regarded as the only criterion, but can only be used for reference. ”

Zhang Xiang's words made Yang Li a little surprised, and asked with interest: "Brother Zhang's method, Yang still heard it in his life, I don't know what Brother Zhang else can teach?" Let Yang open his eyes. ”

Liu Qingyin on the other side was also slightly fascinated by it.

Anyway, the interest is good, and Zhang Xiang also wants to teach them a lesson.

He smiled and said: "Brother Yang, let me ask you, with what Brother Yang has learned, is it considered a talent when he joined the Wenzong Academy in the capital as a champion?" ”

Yang Li nodded proudly: "That's talented." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Xiang also nodded: "But Brother Yang resigned and returned to his hometown because he was persecuted in the capital, and since then he has been playing the world since then, and he doesn't ask about everything, is this not talented?" ”

"This ......" Yang Li was stunned, thinking in his heart, how can this be compared?

Seeing that he couldn't answer, Zhang Xiang shook his head slightly and explained: "Brother Yang has been talented all his life, but he gave up his career because of people, so where can Brother Yang use what he has learned in this life?" Zhang is not Brother Yang's belly, Brother Yang's personality, Zhang knows that Brother Yang doesn't like the officialdom struggle and disdains to fight with others, that is Brother Yang's heart, but that is not the reason for Brother Yang to give up his career, Brother Yang should clear his grievances and catch people, that is the real talent. ”

Yang Li was surprised: "I, Yang, am frank and open, if I do this, what is the difference between me and that person?" ”

Zhang Xiang let out a long sigh of relief, this Yang Li doesn't look like a tendon! He patiently explained: "Brother Yang, what kind of method you have to use to deal with anyone, this is the same as reading, if you only know how to read and don't use it, you are a nerd." Brother Yang has learned all his life, but he gave up because of others, is Brother Yang willing? If Brother Yang is willing, he has given up what he has learned all his life, so what is the use of such talent? ”

, Zhang Xiang said slowly: "Su Shaoyuan, Mr. Su, when he was a member of the Purple Palace, he did things for the people, returned to his hometown, and opened Huating Academy in Pingzhou City, he is still doing things for the people. ”

After finishing, Zhang Xiang sighed again: "Brother Yang, there are talented people in the country, each leading the way for hundreds of years, this life is only a hundred years, if you can't leave a mark in the history books, you will be put into dust, and your life will be in vain." ”

Zhang Xiang's words caused Yang Li and Liu Qingyin to fall into a moment of silence.

Liu Qingyin was in a fog.

Yang Li frowned tightly, wanting to refute something, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that there was nothing wrong, and Zhang Xiang's was not unreasonable.

Faintly, this made Yang Zhongkang, who has always been proud and talented, give birth to the illusion that he is a waste for the first time in his life?

He shook his head violently and hurriedly drove away this distraction.

He is a very assertive person, and he thinks that Zhang Xiang is secretly changing concepts, but he doesn't know how to refute him, so he has to say: "Brother Zhang's words have taught Yang, but Yang's talent is there, how does Yang agree with Brother Zhang's point of view?" ”

Zhang Xiang smiled: "Of course, this is just my point of view, because in my point of view, talent and literary talent are actually distinguished, talent includes ability, but literary talent is just literary talent." ”

It's over, and Zhang Xiang can't do it.

In fact, these arguments of his are tempered by time, and later generations have gradually diluted and distinguished, in ancient times, literary talent and talent are linked, in ancient times, especially in the era of Shengwen, people with high literary talent often feel that talent is high. In fact, otherwise, in his eyes, literary talent and talent are two different things, just like academic qualifications and academic knowledge are not linked, high academic qualifications do not mean that you are highly educated, only if you have both academic qualifications and knowledge, you can be regarded as a real capable person.

Otherwise, in the future generations, why would it be useless to win a hundred useless scholars' This sentence is circulating?

only has literary talent, no ability, and it will only be on paper.

Yang Li can be ruined by one person, which proves that he is not capable

In this kind of era, who can mix well in officialdom is not talented?

Of course, Zhang Xiang didn't expect Yang Li to accept his point of view, after all, this is a collision between modern thinking and ancient thinking, how can a person like Yang Li, who has been trained by Confucianism, agree with his 'crooked reasoning'?

The literati have arrogant bones, and if they admit the reason for death, ten cows will not be able to pull them back.

He just wanted to instill a little bit of his own thoughts in him.

The atmosphere in the cabin froze a little after Zhang Xiang's voice lagged, and he fell into embarrassment

Zhang Xiang was thinking about how to get rid of this topic, but Yang Li was attracted by the two lines of poetry that Zhang Xiang had read casually before.

Liu Qingyin, who still came back to her senses, hurriedly poured them wine to break the embarrassment, she smiled and said: "Zhang Gongzi, Yang Gongzi, you are all talented people, I don't think the two of you need to argue, Qingyin feels that both of them are reasonable." ”

Yang Li laughed, raised his glass and said, "Brother Zhang, Yang admires it, I salute you." ”

Zhang Xiang nodded with a smile, and said with some self-deprecation: "Actually, I admire Brother Yang a lot, at least Brother Yang has served in the Wenzong Academy and has made meritorious achievements, and what I have learned in my life is now a concubine, and I am useless, in terms of talent, I really can't compare to Brother Yang." ”

Like Zhang Xiang's self-deprecating words, Yang Li usually comes into contact with him and listens to him a lot, in him, there is no 'literati arrogance' at all, and he has long been accustomed to it, and said with a smile: "With Brother Zhang's knowledge, if he enters the court as an official, it will be a matter of time before he becomes a marquis." ”

Zhang Xiang waved his hand: "No, everything is a foregone conclusion, no matter how much it is, Brother Yang doesn't blame Zhang's remarks, it is already a great face for Zhang, and Zhang does it first as respect." ”

After putting down the wine glass, Yang Li suddenly said: "By the way, Brother Zhang, the two lines of the poem that Brother Zhang read just now, 'There are talented people in the country, and each has led the way for hundreds of years' was just written?" ”

Zhang Xiang shook his head instinctively, thinking that he didn't do it.

As a result, Yang Li asked again: "It sounds like a lower link, but there is an upper link?" This poem is very heroic, can you teach a lesson or two? ”

"I'll think about it!" Zhang Xiang scratched his head and recalled this "On Poetry", the upper and lower couplets of this poem are fundamentally two realms, the two sentences of the upper couplet are too targeted, only limited to the poet, not as heroic as the lower couplet, if you just listen to the last two sentences, the inclusion is wide. And when the upper and lower couplets are combined, it seems to be more patterned, so he just likes the last two sentences of the lower couplet, which are the essence of this poem.

He shook his head and said, "Get up casually, there is no connection, Brother Yang just listen." ”

Yang Li let out an 'oh', a little regretful: "That's a pity." ”

Zhang Xiang smiled: "Brother Yang, I wasn't there just now!" Poetry and the like, just to add fun. ”

Liu Qingyin on the side interjected: "Zhang Gongzi, I listen to Yang Gongzi, you also wrote a poem about our Qinglou woman, 'The smoke cage is cold and the moon is long and sandy, and the night park is close to the restaurant. The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the flowers in the backyard across the river', this poem is written by Zhang Gongzi! ”

Zhang Xiang glanced at her in surprise, he almost forgot, but he didn't expect Yang Li to spread the word.

Liu Qingyin smiled lightly: "Zhang Gongzi's level of poetry is really only seen in Qingyin's life, this poem is full of strong indignation, but the two sentences just now are so heroic, it can be seen that Zhang Gongzi's level of poetry has already reached the point of peaking." ”

Zhang Xiang smiled dryly: "That, Miss Liu, that poem Zhang definitely doesn't mean that, it's just a feeling of emotion." ”

Liu Qingyin shook her head in agreement: "Zhang Gongzi, where the heart goes, although the slave family is also a Qinglou woman, but it also agrees with what Zhang Gongzi refers to in this poem, how many singers can know the pain of losing the country?" A year ago, Liangzhou fell and fell under the banner of Beiliao, Zhang Gongzi's father was charged with a crime, Zhang Gongzi was prepared for danger in times of peace, and saw me and other Qinglou women singing every night, I felt uncomfortable, and the slave family understood. But Zhang Gongzi, in the face of this kind of war, what can I do with the Qinglou woman? ”

Belch?

Zhang Xiang looked confused, this girl's association ability is also strong, right?

But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong, this Liu Qingyin had something to say!

She is the princess of the former Chu Death Kingdom!

Zhang Xiang shook his head with a smile: "Miss Liu, the wall has ears, let's stop talking about it!" ”

"Is Zhang Gongzi really willing to give up in his heart......" Liu Qingyin looked at him, in an inquiring tone, but before the words were finished, the family members suddenly exclaimed outside the cabin: "The cabin is out of water, quickly put out the fire..."

"It's water, it's water..."

Then, the smell of smoke seeped into the cabin at this time.

Zhang Xiang and Yang Li glanced at each other, and they both stood up violently.

As for what Liu Qingyin said just now, he didn't hear it clearly...
