Chapter 164: Garbage is Garbage
At the height of the dragon boat plywood, a number of elegant seats have been set up, where you can sit and overlook the competition site.
These positions are all specially set up for which senior officials in Wuzhong, as for Li Changsheng and other small county magistrates, there is no such treatment, they are on the side of security, and their positions are not high or low, and they are really embarrassed in the cracks.
This is nothing, at least there is a place, but Li Changsheng's position is relatively biased, when he comes out of Wuzhong, he has never visited other officials, and he is not very familiar with others, so it is normal to be excluded on this occasion.
Li Changsheng was arranged in the corner, it was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.
Let's look at the positions of other officials and squires, all kinds of fruits are left aside for the time being. There are also special maids to serve, on the other hand, Li Changsheng here, there are no maids, and even the fruit plate is empty.
Hiding in the corner, it is difficult to find him unless you know him.
The sun sets over the western mountains, and the moon hangs in the treetops. The black curtain gradually enveloped the earth, and the white moonlight sprinkled on the earth, and the sparkling waves reflected the bright moon.
Officials at all levels are seated in the right place, and among the many officials, Ma Chenfeng naturally occupies the chief position, as the assassin of Wuzhong, and is in charge of the world.
"Your Excellency. The time has come, and all the talented and beautiful people are here, and please ask for a speech. Someone said.
As the highest-ranking official in Wu, such a grand event is indispensable for impassioned speeches, just like the soldiers who are about to go on the expedition, the monarch stands on the high platform of the city tower, and makes words to stimulate the ambition of the soldiers, and all these kinds of things are general.
Ma Chenfeng dressed a little, came to the railing, looked down at the contestants from a high place, cleared his throat, and said: "The annual lantern event, this official is the first to take office, it is an honor to be able to participate in this lantern festival, of course, the happiest thing is to see all the young talents in Wuzhong gathered together, Wuzhong and other generations, why worry about literature?!" ”
"According to this official's opinion, in the imperial examination two years later, the students of my Wu Middle School will come out on top and win the champion."
His words attracted thunderous applause from the scene, although they were all polite greetings, Rao was so, but still could not stop the sound of thunder from resounding up and down the dragon boat.
Ma Chenfeng pressed down with his arms, signaled everyone to be quiet, applauded suddenly, and continued: "Looking at your radiant appearance, this official seems to see his younger self, if he is ten years younger, this official will definitely compete with you." ”
"Now that you are old, you can't do it, this stage belongs to you young people, you must keep the enthusiasm of the official in the competition, and show your real ability."
It was not a humorous word, but there was still laughter, and everyone was amused by Lord Shi's words, whether it was true or not, there was no way to know, anyway, Li Changsheng did not laugh.
"Now with this lantern event, you gather on the dragon boat of Taihu Lake, everyone learns literature, competes in talents, and does your best to give full play to what you have learned in your life, win to win above board, lose and lose the heart of surrender, no matter what the result is, it is also worthy of the heart." Ma Chenfeng said.
"That's all the official has to say, I hope you can really compare the real ability is, let everyone take a look, our talented and beautiful people in Wuzhong will always be the best!!"
Smack~papa~~
The scene once again resounded with thunderous applause, which lasted for a long time.
Li Changsheng hid in the corner. yawned, I was really not interested in Ma Chenfeng's speech, and I almost fell asleep.
"This official announces that the annual lantern festival competition has officially begun!!"
Ma Chenfeng held the drumstick and struck the gong and drum, and the sound of the bang reached everyone's ears.
In their opinion, the way of martial artists is really difficult to reach the hall of elegance, only the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and poetry can be called elegant.
Such vulgar acts are regarded as vulgar by these talents and disdained to be treated with them, but they do not know that they are the most useless when they 'don't hear anything outside the window'.
In a sense, what is denied is this kind of self-righteous scholar, the real talent is to be able to understand it, rather than reading dead books, reading dead books.
Hearing the start of the competition, Li Changsheng also sobered up a lot, and he already knew something about this competition, which was nothing more than chanting poetry.
Together, they are divided into three rounds, the first of which is the chant. The second round is to be opposed, and the third round is also the protagonist of tonight, guessing the lantern riddle. Lantern Festival, how can there be the most traditional lantern riddles?
In the first round of the competition, the top official improvised the question, that is, Ma Chenfeng made the question, and the students in the audience gave the answer. The winner of each round is voted on by everyone present.
"My lord, could you please give me a question?"
Ma Chenfeng nodded, stood up from his position again, came to the front of everyone, and said: "From a distance, the lights on the lakeshore are transparent, the sky is bright, and the night scene is pleasant. How can this be confined to a single theme? Lights, crescents, lakes, willows, these are all exam questions that you and others said. ”
"All you need to do is paint a beautiful picture with verses, and you will be the judge to choose the best verses."
It seems that there is no subject limit, but in fact it is more difficult. If you don't have a clear theme, it's the best theme.
Wait for Ma Chenfeng's voice to fall. A handsome man with a folding fan stood up, he was graceful, with a jade pendant on his waist, and the demeanor of a son-in-law, and said: "Wu Ming, who was born in the late years, has a poem in his belly, which just describes the beauty of the scenery. ”
Wu Ming. The Wu family in Suzhou is also the youngest son of Wu Qiming, compared to his elder brother Wu Yong, in terms of literary attainments, he can definitely be regarded as one of the best in Suzhou.
At this time, I saw Wu Qiming smiling very satisfied, and his youngest son stood up first. Naturally, it gave him a long face, and as a father, it was fake to be unhappy.
"Tell me about it!!" Ma Chenfeng said.
After receiving the order of Lord Shi, Wu Ming said: "It is summer time, and I am boating on the lake, and this is the case with the poems I sang in my later life. ”
Subsequently, I only heard Wu Ming recite: "The green trees are thick and the summer days are long. The tower is reflected in the lake. The crystal curtain moves and the breeze rises, and the shelves are full of roses. ”
A seven-character quatrain, at first glance, it seems to be mediocre, and the first sentence is also plain, but if you taste it carefully, you can find the charm. With the word "yin", it is not only the luxuriance of the tree, but also hints at the scorching summer sun. And the word "thick" is used just right, in addition to the special accident of the shade, there is also a deep meaning of the depth, which can be described as unique and a good poem.
"Good poetry!!"
Ma Chenfeng clapped his hands and applauded.
Lord Thorn agreed. Others naturally followed suit, all clapping their hands and applauding, some people said: "It is worthy of being the son of the Wu family, and the exit is a witty sentence, at a young age, he is really a rare talent in Wu." ”
"Wu Gongzi is only a scholar of erudition, familiar with the past and the present, and only then can he export a beautiful scenery poem, and our generation is ashamed."
"Lord Wu, you really gave birth to a good son, with such a talented son, it seems that the imperial examination in two years will have a place for him."
Ha ha~~!
Wu Qiming didn't mention how happy he was, he didn't hide his laughter. After all, the son won face for Lao Tzu, of course, he had to laugh unreservedly.
"Everyone's praise, the dog is just a coincidence, how can he compare with the adults with his little knowledge?" There is still something to be hypocritically polite, Wu Qiming said humbly.
However, there are always discordant sounds. Just when everyone praised Wu Ming's poems as excellent works, a strange voice sounded.
I only heard someone say: "Although this poem can be called ingenious, it is a little less true, and it cannot be regarded as a superior work." ”
The piercing sound is always so eye-catching, it is easy to attract the attention of others.
The words 'loyal to the ear' are by no means general, but have a practical basis.
His words. It immediately attracted everyone's attention, and I don't know how many pairs of eyes stared at it.
Wu Qiming was the first to notice him and said in surprise: "Is it him?" That stinky boy who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, how did he come to the ship?! ”
Li Changsheng couldn't listen to those sycophants the most, and the more others said that Wu Ming's poems were excellent works, he liked to slap these people in the face in public.
Wu Ming showed a displeased look, and his works were denied. It is inevitable to have this feeling, and said, "Who are you?" How dare you deny my work? ”
Li Changsheng dressed up a little and reported to his family: "My surname is Li, my name is Changsheng, and he is the county order of Wu County." ”
Wu Ming was stunned at first, this young man who was not wearing official clothes turned out to be the county magistrate of Wu County, and he was too young, right? And the people of Suzhou have also heard of this Wu County magistrate, who is typically a madman.
"Unexpectedly, this kid turned out to be the county magistrate of Wu County, no wonder even I dared to fight." Wu Qiming said in his heart.
The news that Li Changsheng is a "madman" has long spread in the Wuzhong area, and in order to avenge the common people, he did not hesitate to offend the Zha family, and almost killed Zha Bai.
This is a good thing, but in the eyes of those officials, it is an extremely stupid thing, offending the Zha family, and if you want to go smoothly in your career, I am afraid that it will be difficult.
Or want to break the can and go crazy to the end. It's just that what everyone didn't expect was that Li Changsheng turned out to be a weak-crowned young man, which was really beyond everyone's expectations.
At this time, Wu Ming said: "Why do you say that my poems are not superior, do you have better works?" ”
"If there is a better work for the time being, if I were the judge, I would unceremoniously give you zero points for this poem. Because it is not qualified, it is simply garbage. ”
"What do you say? My poems are rubbish?! Wu Ming was furious, and suddenly felt unhappy in his heart, and said: "Do you understand what a seven-word quatrain is, if you don't understand, don't comment here." ”
"Garbage is garbage, and no amount of embellishment can change its essence."
"You ......"
