Since Ah Wu had an idea, he wrote a poem "Ruyi Niang" to reverse his fate and return to the palace, he has been busy with palace fighting, and then he is assisting the husband, educating the prince, managing the harem, and studying hard to govern the country and copy Buddhist scriptures.

So is she going to live with a poem? Of course not, in that case, she will not be able to stand on the star-studded Tang poetry circle!

However, her first poem "Ruyi Niang" has reached the peak of her poetic art. Why?

Judging from the results, this poem prompted Li Zhi to open the box to inspect the pomegranate skirt, and sure enough, he was full of tears, so he took the initiative to find a way to find her in Ganye Temple. Her fortunes were reversed!

It can be seen that the artistic appeal of this poem is amazing, and this poem is indeed written by Ah Wu with blood and tears and full of feelings! As for the poems written later, although the words are more beautiful, the feelings are relatively empty and cannot move people, and they are just some works that are immediately appropriate to the situation.

Secondly, "Ruyi Niang" is also related to the later poet Li Bai.

Ah Wu's "Ruyi Niang" cloud:

Seeing Zhu Chengbi's thoughts, he was haggard and haggard.

I don't believe that I will cry longer than I come, and I will open the box and check the pomegranate skirt.

Li Bai wrote a poem "Sauvignon Blanc", the last sentence of the poem:

Remembering the monarch across the blue sky, the past was horizontal, and now it is a fountain of tears.

I don't believe that the concubine's intestines are broken, and I came back to see before the mirror.

Li Bai was very satisfied with the last sentence of his poem, and specially gave it to his wife to appreciate, but after reading this poem, his wife said: "Haven't you read the poem of Empress Wu?" I don't believe that I will cry longer than I come, and I will open the box and check the pomegranate skirt. Li Bai was stunned when he heard this.

Li Bai later imitated the poem of Empress Wu and wrote a sentence "Urging the strings to blow the pillar and the gentleman drink, see Zhu Cheng's blue face and start red".

It can be seen that in the face of the poem "Ruyi Niang", the poet fairy Li Bai is also ashamed, so the first poem of Empress Wu has reached the peak of her poetry art.

Poetry becomes a style of elegance, the text is endowed with fun, writing poems must touch the scene to be written, there must be scenery and things that touch the feelings, as for whether there is blood and tears and full of feelings, it is secondary. Yes, of course, it is possible to write famous poems, but no, you can also express your feelings in real time.

After changing the Tang Dynasty to Zhou, one summer, Wu Cao led Princess Taiping, Shangguan Wan'er and other nine talented women to play in Jiulong Cave in Shibangou Village, Yiyang County, southwest of Luoyang!

There is no thousand-year-old golden-nosed white-haired rat spirit in this Nine Dragon Cave, and there are no other monsters, it is very safe, it is only more than 500 meters deep, there is a pool of water in it, its color is green, and it is called Jiulong Pond.

Wu Cao and other nine talented women, surrounded by guards, canopies, banners, Hanbi, and advocacy, rode a Zhai car to the target, accompanied by Ren Zhigu, Dongfang Qiu, Song Zhiwen and other scholars.

This tour was organized and arranged by Wang Wu Youxu of Anping.

Along the way, the talented women chattered and talked about the tourist attractions. Princess Taiping asked, "A-Niang, why did you come out to travel?" Wouldn't it be nice to stay in the palace garden and enjoy the flowers? Look at the farmers along the road, they are all working hard, and no one is traveling! ”

Wu Cao: "The so-called tourism is to go around from the place where you are tired to the place where others are tired. It's great to enjoy the flowers in the Imperial Garden, but there are times when you get bored after a long time! ”

"Travel needs to have money and leisure, not everyone can go out and hang out! Farmers work hard all year round, and they don't make much money, so they don't have the time to travel! ”

"How happy we are, rich and free, we can go out to travel, we are tired and there is wine and meat to entertain, there are silk and bamboo songs and dances to watch, this is a different place from ordinary people."

After arriving at the destination of Shibangou Village, the nine talented women stepped off the Zhai car, like the Holy Mother of Nine Dragons, and saw that the entrance of the Nine Dragons Cave was facing the main peak of Banbi Mountain.

Dafeng Wu Cao and Xiaofeng Taiping Princess fly and swim on the top of the mountain! Then enter the Nine Dragons Cave and visit the Nine Dragons Pond.

Enter the entrance of the cave and walk forward for 500 meters, and see a clear pool. The water of the pool is clear, bottomless, nine talented women look in the mirror around the pool, and their figures are reflected in the center of the pool, as if the Holy Mother of Nine Dragons lives here!

After swimming in the Nine Dragon Cave, nine talented women floated down the mountain. The fairies boarded the chariot and came to the house of King Wu Youxu of Anping to hold a feast.

Wu Youxu was less than forty years old at the time, served as the palace eunuch, and was the grandson of Wu Cao's uncle, the samurai Jean, and his personality was quiet and desireless, and he liked to travel leisurely in the mountains.

Because it was the palace supervisor who was responsible for organizing and arranging the tourism activities, he had already prepared all kinds of delicacies at home, and the host immediately poured wine and served the food as soon as he arrived.

The sake used at the banquet is bamboo leaf green sake, which is filled with fresh bamboo leaves floating on it, giving off a strong fragrance and a pale green color, which is sweet and delicious!

The silk and bamboo orchestra played, and the singers and dancers performed on the stage, so that the atmosphere of the banquet reached the first level.

Wu Cao raised the hibiscus cup to persuade the guests to drink, and the fairies drank it all. Sweet wine, intoxicating singing, the guests drank to their heart's content!

Wu Cao recalled the itinerary of Jiulong Pond and felt that compared with the landscape of his hometown Wuxing County, only the sound of the wind blowing the pine trees was the same!

Wu Cao took the wine to write a poem "Traveling to Jiulong Pond", the poem:

The mountain window travels to the jade girl, and the stream is on Qiongfeng.

The top of the rock soars with two phoenixes, and the heart of the pond pours nine dragons.

Bamboo leaves are floating in the wine, and hibiscus is written on the cup.

Therefore, the mountain is rewarded, but the wind enters the pine.

Song Zhiwen, the accompanying Shang Fang supervisor, wrote the article "Feng Yi from Princess Taiping to Jiulong Pond to find a banquet and Anping Wang's farewell preface".

In Luoyang Longmen Mountain, there is the cemetery of the Tianzhu monk Rizhao Dade. After the establishment of the Great Zhou Empire, Liang Wang Wu Sansi asked to build a Buddhist temple in the area of the cemetery of Rizhao Dade and named it Xiangshan Temple.

When the Xiangshan Temple was built, the Wangchun Palace, the emperor's palace for traveling, was built on top of it.

After the palace was built, Wu Cao often went to Xiangshan Temple to play and sit in the court.

In early spring, the continuous spring rain stopped, the white clouds drifted across the city, and the flowers and willows on both sides of the Yishui River grew new shoots.

Wu Cao led the ministers to visit the Wangchun Palace of Longmen Xiangshan Temple in Luoyang, and climbed the Wangchun Tower to enjoy the spring and watch the farmers! The entourage, feathers, banners, and Hanbi are dazzling, surrounded by jade chariots.

Wu Cao was influenced by the literary and artistic youth Li Zhi, and was also elegant and good at literary and artistic movements, watching the blue stream and Changhong, carved beams and paintings and early return to Feiyan under the spring glow, the first song of fairy music, light singing and dancing.

Drinking spring storm wine, raising a cup of ten thousand years, and offering longevity in the smoke, how can you lack poetry to help the fun? Wu Cao then ordered the literati and writers to write poems on the spot.

Shangguan Wan'er judges the merits of the poems created by literati and ink writers, and the first poet will be given a brocade robe! This is actually a poetry fight between literati and artists, presided over by the female emperor, and Shangguan Wan'er as the referee!

The opportunity is rare, this kind of scene is comparable to the palace examination in the imperial examination! Therefore, with great excitement, the literati and writers unfolded the paper scroll, sharpened the ink and waved the pen, and each displayed the talent of Panjiang, land and sea!

Zuo Shi Dongfang was quick to think, and took the lead in writing a poem "Spring Snow", and got up to hand in the paper!

Shangguan Wan'er unfolded the poem scroll and saw that there were only four sentences, and couldn't help but say, "So short? You are opportunistic and want to take advantage of His Majesty's immature rules! ”

Dongfang Qiu said with a smile on his face: "Although the four words in the next are very short, they are also original!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er recited in a crisp and loud voice: "Spring snow, Dongfang Qiu!" Spring snow is full of air, and it looks like flowers blooming everywhere. I don't know the trees in the garden, if it's a real plum? ”

After reading it, he commented: "This poem is short and exquisite, although it is a common scene, it can be unique and write the fun of spring snow!" ”

Wu Cao applauded, because Dongfang Qiu could take the lead in creating a warm atmosphere and avoiding the embarrassment of the cold scene, so he rewarded him with the brocade robe according to the rules mentioned earlier.

Shangguan Wan'er quietly attached to Wu Cao's ear and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the rules just set are inappropriate, and those who make poems first will be given brocade robes, so of course writing four-word poems is much faster than writing eight-word and sixteen-word poems, but the difficulty is much less!" Doesn't this allow Dongfang Qiu to take advantage of the loophole? ”

Wu Cao suddenly realized, complained to Shangguan Wan'er, and said, "Oh, yes, why didn't you say it earlier just now?" Hey, really, what can I do now? ”

Shangguan Wan'er said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the ministers will pick out a good poem recognized by everyone for comment, Your Majesty will push the boat down the river and give the brocade robe to others!" ”

Wu Cao nodded and said, "Well, okay, that's the only way to do it!" ”

Dongfang bowed down to thank him, and then returned to his seat with his robe, and saw that the left and right bachelors were immersed in writing epic long poems, and his own poems were the shortest but he got the brocade robe, and he felt uneasy in his heart!

Dongfang Qiuzheng was thinking wildly, Liang Wangwu Sansi wrote a five-word poem "Fenghe Spring Tour Longmen Response", got up and handed in the paper!

Shangguan Wan'er unfolded the scroll and recited, but before she had time to comment, Shen Yanzhi, the general secretary, also wrote a seven-character poem that should be prepared. After Shangguan Wan'er commented on the poems of the two poets, Wu Cao did not mean to give robes!

After another moment, the forty-two-word long poem of Shang Fangjian Cheng Song Zhiwen's monumental work "Longmen Ying System" was finally written and presented, and it ended with a few lines of poetry:

The bird flag leaves the grass on the wings, and the dragon rider reflects the evening flowers.

Thousands of rides and thousands of horses came out, and the water was quiet and the mountains were strictly guarded.

The noise in the suburbs attracts people, and the south looks at the car dust.

The noise led to the zodiac, and the good luck returned to Zichen.

The first king set the mountains and rivers to be solid, and the treasure life was new.

My emperor doesn't have to do Yao Chi Le, when the rain comes to watch the farmer's spring.

Shangguan Wan'er unfolded the scroll and recited it with emotion, and then commented: "Although this poem is very long, it is both literary and beautiful!" It is a rare masterpiece at this poetry meeting! Ladies and gentlemen, please circulate the comments! ”

After the left and right scholars circulated it, they all applauded unanimously.

When Wu Cao heard this poem, she was held higher than the Queen Mother of Yaochi, and she did her best to exaggerate her abilities, and applauded and said: "Wow, this poem not only touched my heart, but also touched the hearts of everyone, and it should be rated first!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er pushed the boat down the river and said: "Since Bachelor Song's poem is ranked first, and there is only one brocade robe, then I have to be sorry for Zuo Shi!" After speaking, he snatched the brocade robe from Dongfang Qiu's hand and gave it to Song Zhiwen.

Dongfang Qiu didn't feel sudden, but was relieved, relaxed, and greeted Song Zhi with a smile! Song Zhiwen held a brocade robe and bowed down to Wu Cao to thank him.

This is the widely spread story of the dragon gate robe.

Later Du Fu's "Sending Li Twelve White Twenty Rhymes" said: "The dragon boat moves late, and the beast brocade takes the new robe." Gao Qi's "Xie Ciyi" said: "Being a disciple is deep, and I am ashamed to win the talent." "It's all an allusion to the dragon gate robe.

Long live the second year of the lunar month, Wu Cao went to Songshan to seal Zen. On March 16, the Xinming Hall was completed, no longer called the Vientiane Shrine, but renamed the Tongtian Palace.

Wu Cao revisited history, and when he read the story of Dayu dividing the world for Kyushu and Xia Qiling Kyushu Mu paying tribute to bronze casting Jiuding, he was full of emotion! Resolutely decided to learn from Xia Qi and ordered the Kyushu tripod to be cast in bronze.

Si Nongqing Zong Jinqing was appointed as the Jiuding envoy, specifically responsible for the casting project.

The names and images of the mountains and rivers of each prefecture are engraved on the Kyushu Ding, which is inscribed by calligraphers such as Zhong Shaojing, the author Lang Jia Yingfu, Xue Changrong in the palace, and Li Yuanzhen, the director of the Fengge, respectively, and Zuo Shangfang ordered Cao Yuankuo to depict pictures on the Ding.

A year later, on April 3 of the second year of Long Live Tongtian, Kyushu Ding was completed.

Among them, Yuzhou Ding is also called Shendu Ding, is the largest Ding, one zhang eight feet high, with a capacity of 1,800 stones.

The rest of the Hebei, Yong, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Liangzhou eight tripods, each one zhang four feet high, the capacity of 1,200 stones. 560,700 catties of copper were shared.

Kyushu Ding was cast outside the Xuanwu Gate, and after the casting was made, they should be moved into the Tongtian Palace, and Wu Cao ordered the prime minister and the kings to lead more than 100,000 guards from the north and south to the Yasu, plus the big cows and white elephants fed in the inner garden.

In order to boost morale, Wu Cao personally wrote a poem "Song of Dragging", which is a song:

Xi farmer is the first, and Xuan Hao is in the middle of the year. Tang Yu followed the heel, and Tang Yu took the time.

The world is light, and the sea is young. Shang Xuan descended to Jian, Fang Jianlongji.

Let the guards of the north and south yasu sing and pull the ding at the same time. After everyone's efforts, all the Kyushu tripods were finally successfully moved into the Tongtian Palace, and placed in various places in the hall according to the direction of the gossip.

"Song of the Ding" is magnificent, the beginning of the three emperors and five emperors and Xia Yu Shangtang and other saints, and then said that the world since the change of the Yuan Guang house, the sea and Le Shengping, has achieved remarkable political achievements. Finally, I thanked God Haotian and said that she was inspired by God to establish the foundation of the prosperous Great Zhou Empire!

Half a year later, one night in the early spring of the first year of the Holy Calendar, the round moon hung in the sky, shining brightly, the spring breeze blew the earth, and the plants and trees were dressed in new clothes!

Wu Cao held a night banquet in the Ningbi Pond of the Shendu Garden, put up lanterns, feasted the ministers and envoys of various countries, temporarily lifted the curfew, opened all the gates of the palace, and prepared to play it all night long!

Wu Cao sat on the boat with colorful flags fluttering in the Ningbi Pond, the delicate blue lantern was replaced with a new wick, igniting a colorful flame, and it was as bright as day under the bright moon!

With the flute of Lotus Liulang Zhang Changzong, the night banquet officially began.

Taichang musicians played music, Cui'e danced, Zhang Yizhi sang in the hall, detonated the scene, ignited the atmosphere, and everyone stood up and applauded!

The palace ladies and eunuchs lined up to serve meals, and all kinds of sea and land treasures were set up in an orderly manner. Wu Cao raised the Liuxia cup full of grape wine to toast and drank it with the ministers and envoys of various countries.

Staggered, infinite joy, some VIP seats played the game of drumming and passing incense balls, the red candles are exhausted, the drum stops, the incense balls fall into whoever hands, who will drink! Some VIP seats ordered to drink, listened to the order to take turns to guess riddles, to the Spring Festival couplets, violators of the order to drink!

Luantai waiter Di Renjie, Wang Fangqing, Neishi Wang Heshan, Lintai young eunuch Li Qiao, Fengge Sheren Xue Ji and staff member Wailang Xu Yanbo played a game of Qushui Liuzhen.

First place the wine buds on the proposal, pour it full of syrup, and then go down the crooked canal, and whoever stops in front of him will take a cup of wine to get rid of the bad luck on his body.

Wu Cao watched with great interest, and also instructed Gong E to be sure to fill it with good wine when sending wine, and the rhythm of Liuyu should be accelerated, so as not to get cold! Gong E obeyed the order, and sure enough, the atmosphere became warm.

At the end of the night banquet, the sky was about to break, Wu Cao told Shang Shi to serve the emperor and Si Shan Siqing, and let the guests from all over the world drink and have fun!

After the guests from all over the world drank and had a good time, they arranged for the VIPs to take a boat in turn and return from Luoshui!

At dawn in the east, Wu Cao boarded the ship and drove back to the palace. Tian Guidao, the supervisor in the hall, handed over the pen and paper and said respectfully: "The bamboo leaf bottle teaches the music in front of the music, and the peach blossom paper is waiting for the king's poems." ”

Wu Cao happily picked up the pen and wrote the poem "Early Spring Night Banquet" on the peach blossom paper to record the grand occasion of the party and express the unforgettable meaning of tonight, the poem:

Nine spring opens on the last festival, and thousands of doors open at night.

The orchid lamp spits out a new flame, and the laurel is round and bright.

The wine must be full, and the flowing cup does not need to be thin.

Make sure that the Xia pulp is prosperous, and the party returns to Fanluo.
