In the Red Sleeve Pavilion, in Tang Ning's room, Li Tianlan put down one of his strategies and said: "During this time, your progress is indeed great, if you can maintain this level above the provincial examination, even if the article can't add color to your strategy, but it won't be scolded as bullshit." ”

Progress is a must, otherwise in those two months, wouldn't it be a waste of time to tutor him in the room every day until late at night?

"Those ten Shangyuan poems of yours have been spread in Jingshi." Li Tianlan looked at him and suddenly asked, "Do you know what the people outside call you?" ”

Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, and said uncertainly: "Shixian? ”

Li Tianlan glanced at him: "Is your surname Li too white?" ”

Tang Ning thought for a moment and asked, "It can't be a poet, right?" ”

Li Tianlan looked at him and said, "They call you a poetry madman." ”

Tang Ning's expression was stunned.

Li Bai is known as a poet, Du Fu has the name of a poet, Wang Wei is respected as a poet Buddha, and Bai Juyi's "poetry demon" does not sound as elegant as the first three, but no matter how you say it, it is also an honorific title, right?

What the hell is a poetic madman, why is everyone else two words, but when it comes to him, it becomes three words.

"They say that although you have a talent for poetry, you write poetry for the sake of writing poetry, and the content and artistic conception of the poetry are imaginary out of thin air......"

"They also said that you are insulting to Sven and not conducive to the development of poetry."

"They say only madmen write poetry like that."

……

Li Tianlan helped him counsel and tell him what he had seen and heard on the road.

Jealousy, this is naked jealousy.

Tang Ning didn't bother to explain at all, Wen Tingyun's love is well written, it doesn't mean that people must be women, Ouyang Xiu can control both boldness and grace, and both styles of words have achieved extremely high achievements, who said that poetry must reflect himself, he describes a general who has been fighting for many years, and reflects a poor woman who misses her dead husband.

Could it be that if you want to write a woman's love, you must first cultivate the Sunflower Treasure Book and ward off evil spirits?

If you want to write about the border war, you have to go into battle to kill the enemy yourself?

Xiao Jue is a boy chicken, when it comes to the secret things in the Qinglou, isn't it like a veteran of flowers?

In the same way, he just took out a small part of the splendid Chinese civilization behind him to bask in the sun, why did they call him a madman?

He looked at Li Tianlan and said angrily: "They are too much! ”

Li Tianlan shook his head and said, "I think the "poetry maniac" is quite suitable for you. ”

Tang Ning looked at her and frowned: "Did you talk like that, or are you not brothers?" ”

……

The Imperial Palace, somewhere deep in the hall.

Emperor Chen put down a letter and muttered, "Emperor Chu sent someone to deliver an urgent report, and those guys on the grassland are restless again. ”

"Your Majesty, don't worry." A voice came from behind him, saying: "Yunzhou has hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers stationed all year round, and that group of barbarians can't afford to make any waves." ”

"Underestimating that group of barbarians, they all suffered a big loss in the end." Emperor Chen shook his head and said, "But it's okay, those barbarians are restless, some people can't sleep like me, I heard that Emperor Chu has not been in good health in recent days, and I don't know if it's true or not......"

He put down the fold in his hand, stretched his waist, shook his head and said, "That's it, don't talk about it, Wei Jian, if there is anything interesting in Jingshi these days, tell me." ”

After thinking about it, Gonggong Wei said, "Back to Your Majesty, then Tang Ning has come to Beijing." ”

"Downing?" Chen Huang thought for a moment and asked, "This name sounds familiar, who is he?" ”

Gonggong Wei coughed lightly and reminded: "Your Majesty, this Tang Jieyuan saved 500,000 taels of silver for the treasury at the beginning of this year, and you also rewarded him with a piece of jade. ”

A hint of surprise appeared on Emperor Chen's face: "It turned out to be him!" ”

He looked at Wei Jian and asked, "The provincial exam is about to start, so he naturally wants to come to Beijing to take the exam, what kind of interesting thing is this?" ”

"Your Majesty doesn't know." Wei Jian smiled and said, "There was a poetry meeting in Beijing yesterday, and this Tang Jieyuan also participated, Your Majesty guessed what happened to him?" ”

Emperor Chen thought for a while and said, "I remember that he wrote a good poem, what's the matter, could it be that he wrote a good poem last night, this is the interesting thing you said?" ”

Wei Jian smiled and said: "One poem is naturally not interesting, he wrote a total of ten poems last night, and those ten poems are all the top ten poems selected by Beijing during this Lantern Festival." ”

Chen Huang was surprised: "The top ten were actually monopolized by him alone?" ”

Wei Jian said: "It is said that the cause is that the son of Tang Qi and Tang Da's family, before the Lantern Festival, he sent people to buy ten poems, wanting to win the top in one fell swoop, and then Tang Xie Yuan wrote ten poems by himself, so that Tang Daren's son did not even make the list, and became the laughing stock of the Beijing Division, this Tang Xie Yuan, I am afraid that he is also a master who is not easy to bully, and because ......of the poems he wrote, people outside call him a poetry maniac." ”

"In this way, this person's poetic talent should be the only one in the world." Emperor Chen nodded and said, "I want to see what poems he wrote last night." ”

Wei Jian bowed and said, "Slave maid, let people take it." ”

Not long after, a pamphlet appeared in Emperor Chen's hand.

After he flipped through it, the expression on his face began to become strange, and it took a long time to put down the booklet, and he couldn't help but say: "Only the wrong name, no wrong nickname, the poetry madman really deserves his name, this Tang Ning, he is really ......, what a talent." ”

Wei Jian smiled and said, "I don't know how he will perform in this provincial test......

"I envy him a little." Emperor Chen looked out of the hall and said, "Thousands of years later, the world may remember him because of these poems, but they may not be able to remember my ......."

Wei Jian hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty's Wen Tao Wu is strategic, and the wise and martial arts are not inferior to the Tang Sect and Song Ancestor, it is precisely because of the prosperous era under your rule that there is a talent like Tang Jieyuan, and the world will naturally remember Your Majesty......"

"That's it, I can't even care about the things in front of me, where can I care about the things behind me......" Emperor Chen waved his hand and asked, "How is Concubine Shu's health, is it better?" ”

Wei Jian bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the imperial doctor has already gone to see it yesterday, and said that Concubine Shu's illness is not a big deal, take a few medicines, and recuperate for a few days......"

"That's good." Emperor Chen nodded and said, "Accompany me to Concubine Shu to have a look." ”

Wei Jian raised his head and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty drives!" ”

Tang family.

A woman named Tang Shui quietly walked into a certain courtyard, closed the courtyard door, walked quickly into a room, looked at the woman in the room, and said happily: "Sister-in-law, I found him again." ”

"Sister-in-law, you can't guess what happened last night." The woman took her hand and said, "In a few days, everyone in Jingshi will know his name...... hmph, those people outside actually say that he is a poetry maniac, they are all jealous!" ”

The woman took her hand and hurriedly asked, "What happened last night?" ”

Tang Shui said with a smile: "Last night at the Lantern Festival poetry meeting in the natural residence......"

She shook her head with some pity and said, "I knew that I would go to the natural residence last night, but it doesn't matter, I have already inquired clearly, he lives in the Red Sleeve Pavilion, no wonder I searched all the inns in Jingshi and didn't find him." ”

When the woman heard him, a look of relief appeared on her face, but it was more worry.

She looked at the young woman in front of her and said, "Shui'er, I want to ask you for something. ”

The woman knew what she was thinking, nodded and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I won't bother him, and I won't let people bully him......"

……

Xiao Jue didn't come to disturb him in the morning, and Li Tianlan stayed in his room for an hour before leaving.

Tang Ning walked downstairs and saw a guy from the Red Sleeve Pavilion carrying a burden, as if he was going out, and the shopkeeper Xu was telling him something.

"Where is this going?" Tang Ning asked casually.

Shopkeeper Xu said with a smile: "He has something to go to Lingzhou." ”

Tang Ning was stunned and said, "It's just right, help me bring a letter back and send it to the Zhongxian Commander's Mansion......"
