Chapter 160: Peace for All Generations (1st Update)
Hearing King Liang's question, Shangguan Yi frowned slightly.
No one had ever asked him this question before.
In fact, the truest answer in Shangguan Yi's mind is probably to change his fate through reading.
However, since this question was asked by King Liang, then he couldn't answer it like that.
Therefore, after hearing King Liang's question, Shangguan Yi pondered for a moment and said, "I study to show what I want in my life!" ”
After hearing Shangguan Yi's answer, Li Su shook his head slightly and said nothing.
Seeing Li Yude's reaction, Shangguan Yi's arrogance was also stimulated, and he couldn't help asking: "I don't know His Royal Highness King Liang, why are you studying?" ”
Hearing Shangguan Yi's rhetorical question, a smile flashed at the corner of Li Yi's mouth.
Li Su couldn't help but put down the wine glass, and said in a low voice: "This king reads, and he only wishes: to establish a heart for heaven and earth; Establish a life for the people; for the sake of the saints; Open peace for all generations! ”
Every time Li Su said a word, Shangguan Yi was shocked once.
In the end, Shangguan Yi couldn't sit still, and couldn't help but stand up all at once.
After listening to King Liang's answer, Shangguan Yi only felt that his blood was surging, and a wave of pride suddenly surged into his heart.
He said loudly and easily: "Set your heart for heaven and earth; Establish a life for the people; for the sake of the saints; Open peace for all generations! ”
His voice grew louder and louder, and when he said the last sentence, he actually shook the window paper.
"Men should study, as it is!"
After that, Shangguan Yi took a deep look at Li Su.
Li Su did not avoid this gift, but accepted it calmly.
Since Shangguan Yi benefited from these four sentences, then he deserved this ceremony.
These four sentences, from the four sentences of Zhang Zai in later generations, can be said to summarize almost all the ideals and aspirations of ancient scholars.
Li Su believes that there are very few scholars in the year of the weak crown who can not be enthusiastic and worship after hearing the four sentences.
Sure enough, after Li Su said the four sentences, Shangguan Yi had already introduced Li Su as his lifelong confidant.
The two of them had a banquet, drinking happily, and the guests and hosts were happy.
Finally going downstairs, the two walked arm in arm.
When he walked to the door, Li Su suddenly stopped and said to the account room: "Go and give Shangguan Gongzi 10,000 yuan." ”
Soon, a package of 10,000 yuan was delivered to Shangguan Yi.
This time, Shangguan Yi did not refuse.
After receiving the package, Shangguan Yi said to Li Su: "Today, Shangguan Yi went to the first floor of the world to couplet, in fact, because he was shy in his pocket. Thanks to His Royal Highness's gift, Shangguan Yi accepted it with a cheeky face. ”
After hearing Shangguan Yi's words, Li Su couldn't help laughing, knowing that Shangguan Yi really didn't treat himself as an outsider.
Li Su couldn't help asking, "Shangguan Gongzi, do you have a place to live?" If not, you might as well live in my palace. In my palace, there are thousands of books for Shangguan Gongzi to watch at will. ”
In ancient times, there were no better conditions than in modern times, and you could buy any book you wanted to read at any time, and even read it online on the Internet.
In any era, it is very difficult to borrow books.
Thousands of books are as attractive to scholars of any era as a great sword.
And Li Su said again: "Shangguan Gongzi, if necessary, this king can also help you introduce the examiner." ”
The imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty was inherited from the Sui Dynasty and was not yet perfect.
At that time, the exam was not confused, and the reviser could see the candidate's name.
Therefore, there are many places in the dark box control.
There are many candidates who will take their poems to the examiner before the exam.
If the examiner likes your poems, then it is done, and there is a good chance that you will go to high school in this subject.
So, there was a popular saying at the time that kung fu was on the sidelines.
For example, there is a very famous poem in the Tang Dynasty "The Recent Examination of Zhang Shuibu", which is a poem written by the poet Zhu Qingyu to the chief examiner Zhang Ji before he was admitted to the Shike.
The poem is written like this:
The red candle was stopped in the cave room last night, and I was waiting to worship my aunt in front of Xiaotang.
Makeup asked her husband in a low voice, if the thrush is deep and shallow.
This poem suddenly looks like it is written about a newlywed woman who wakes up after a night of candles in the cave room, and the day is almost dawn.
The ugly daughter-in-law is about to see her in-laws, and the bride is very nervous, so after putting on makeup, she whispered to her husband, is my eyebrow in line with the trend?
But what does the poem really mean? In fact, Zhu Qingyu was asking the examiner Zhang Ji, I don't know if my poems can enter your old eyes?
Then it was very wonderful that Zhang Ji gave Zhu Qingyu a clear answer and wrote a poem "Reward Zhu Qingyu"
Yue Nu's new makeup appeared in the mirror, and she knew that she was bright and beautiful.
When Qi is not enough, people are expensive, and a song of Ling Song is worth ten thousand gold.
The meaning of this poem is, oops, you look like a thief, just like Shih Tzu, you don't have to be humble and worried, I am optimistic about you!
The harmony between these two has become a story for the ages.
This kind of thing that seems shameful now was the norm at the time.
Our poet immortal Li Bai has also done this kind of thing.
At that time, he visited Han Jingzhou and wrote a "Book with Han Jingzhou", in which two sentences were: You don't need to seal the marquis of ten thousand households in life, but I hope to know Han Jingzhou.
It is estimated that Mr. Jin Yong's life does not know Chen Jinnan, even if he is called a hero, it is in vain, it is from these two sentences.
There is another sentence in the middle: If you will receive a high banquet, indulge in a clear talk, please try ten thousand words a day, and rely on the horse.
It means that I am a quick thinker, so you can test me quickly. Any topic I can write 10,000 words without thinking!
At that time, Li Bai was still a literary and artistic young man with ideals and ambitions, and at that time, he probably did not have the idea of 'An Neng broke his eyebrows and bent his waist to do things to the powerful, making me unhappy'.
At that time, I was still willing to be an official and strive to be motivated.
It's a pity that this Han Jingzhou didn't want to see Li Bai, he didn't give Li Bai a chance at all, and in the end, it didn't become a good story for the ages.
But the atmosphere at that time was like this, if Li Su was willing to introduce the examiner for Shangguan Yi.
With Li Yu's identity, coupled with Shangguan Yi's real talent and learning, Shangguan Yi can immediately stand out.
However, Li Su's proposal was politely rejected by Shangguan Yi.
Shangguan Yi said sincerely: "I appreciate Your Highness's kindness, but I prefer to rely on my true talent to learn the exam and say goodbye!" ”
Looking at Shangguan Yi's calm and distant back, Li Su couldn't help but shake his head.
According to the original historical trajectory, Shangguan Yi should have passed the exam this time.
This is the talent of the prime minister!
It would be nice if I could be close to you.
It's a pity that if he doesn't let him participate in the imperial examination and stay by his side, it is estimated that this Shangguanyi will not be happy.
The twisted melon is not sweet, so he can only go with him.
Now Li Su is really a little anxious, and the generals are slightly better.
But it is really difficult to find a literati who has the talent to govern the world and can be used by him.
