Chapter 37: The Two Children Debate the Day

There has never been a shortage of poets in the Tang Dynasty.

However, there are only seven people in today's poetry world who are comparable to Dongfang Qiu in terms of talent and fame.

Isn't seven a lot?

No, if you pinch your fingers, it's not much at all.

After the martial arts, he tasted the Luonan Longmen, and the edict was given poems by the ministers, and the poems of the left history of the East were first completed, and the brocade robe was given.

This sentence says that Dongfang Qiu is very powerful, in fact, there is another sentence at the end.

That is:

Russia, the question of poetry, the reward of the aftermath, and the brocade robe is given.

Yes, one of them is even more powerful than Dongfang Qiu, Song Zhiwen.

What does this mean?

That is to say, once in Luoyang Longmen, the Empress Wu ordered the ministers to write poems, Zuo Shi Dongfang poems were completed first, and the Empress Wu gave brocade robes.

and Song Zhiwen's "Longmen Response" poem was offered, "Literature and science are both beautiful, and the left and right are good." "Empress Wu took Dongfang Qiu's brocade robe and gave it to him.

This seizure not only reflects Empress Wu's advocacy of the beautiful and virtuous poetic style, but also shows the creative direction of Song Zhiwen at this time, which has a great impact on his reputation and status.

But Song Zhiwen asked this person that he was too utilitarian, and at this time he wanted to be the favorite minister of the martial queen.

During the Wu Zhou period, Song Zhiwen not only congratulated the Empress Wu Dynasty to travel to Yu, but also flattered the relatives of the Empress Wu who were fortunate enough to feast and enjoy the tour, and felt that "the will is only obtained, and the remains are forgotten." ”

This pursuit and life caused him to gradually indulge and degenerate, and consciously or unconsciously fell into the political whirlpool of power struggle within the ruling group.

Therefore, this kind of jealousy between Qinglou can't arouse the slightest interest in Song Zhiwen.

There is still a Chen Ziang left, that is, the Chen Ziang who thinks about the world and is lonely and crying.

But the pattern of Chen Ziang is not here, but in heaven and earth.

Chen Ziang's family is rich, and he prides himself on being a direct minister, and his heart is on the country's social affairs, and he rarely comes to the teaching workshop on weekdays, let alone let him be someone's exclusive poet.

Remove these two, and there are five more.

Among them, Su Wei and Li Qiao in the "Four Friends of the Article" don't even think about it, these two people are now in a good position, and their official positions are extremely prominent, so please invite an official at the level of six Shangshu to participate in the Qinglou competition?

How is this possible!

Aside from these two people, there are still Du Xianyan and Cui Rong among the four friends. It's just that Nadu Zhenyan is also the official residence of Luoyang Cheng, and he is actually the second person in Jingzhao Yamen after Jingzhao Yin.

In addition, this person has always been proud of his talent and has the disease of arrogance, not to mention that he is doing such a big official, he is down-and-out, and he will not be invited with his temperament.

The last remaining Cui Rong official is not big, but he is a subordinate official of the East Palace, and he is deeply appreciated by the former master.

And he, the former master, had just been ousted from the throne by the Holy Spirit Emperor two years ago, and now it was the time to be jealous.

Imagine how embarrassing Cui Rong's current situation should be, it is too late for him to rein in and fade out of everyone's sight, how dare he come to join in the excitement that will inevitably cause a sensation in the Shendu?

Among the seven people who can compete with Dongfang, the four friends of the article and Chen Ziang are completely hopeless.

So who do you think in the end?

That was Luo Bingwang, one of the four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty who wrote the goose goose.

Luo Bingwang was born in a poor family, and was able to write poetry at the age of seven, known as a "prodigy". It is said that "Song of the Goose" was composed at this time.

He is also particularly good at seven words and songs, and his famous work "Dijing Chapter" is a rare long story in the early Tang Dynasty, and he thought it was a swan song at that time.

He drafted the famous "Seeking Wu Cao for Xu Jingye": "The sound of the class moves and the north wind rises, the sword qi rushes and the south is flat, and the dark sound (woo) collapses the mountains, and the wind and clouds change color. Suppress the enemy in this way, what enemy will not destroy, and use this to make merit, and what merit will not be overcome. …… Please see whose world is in today's domain! "Impassioned, swallowing mountains and rivers.

Wu Zetian read that "a handful of soil is not dry, and six feet of loneliness is what to do", and the emperor asked: "Who is doing it?" ”

Or to King Bin, Wu Zetian sighed and said: "Prime Minister An gains and loses this person."

Yes, you read that right.

At this time, Luo Bin Wang was participating in Xu Jingye's rebellion, so how could he care about these things.

After counting like this, Yu Youwei has really reached the point of exhaustion.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Qinglou where she is located has taken a long time but still cannot solve the problem.

It's not that I don't understand the root cause of losing to Su Yujing, and it's not that I'm stingy and unwilling to spend, but it's ......

Throughout Luoyang City, and even the whole world, there is no such person at all!

The three hundred and sixty states of the Tang Dynasty, plus the eight hundred states, in today's world, in addition to the four friends of the article, Chen Ziang, Song Zhiwen, and Luo Binwang, who else can compete with Dongfang Qiu?

Is it the young man in Bai Daoyi in front of him?

No matter how much Yu Youwei broke the jar, how dare she think about it.

can't put Li Xingzhou to the point where he can be compared with Dongfang Qiu. This is true of anyone in this era.

After these flashes in her mind, the hope in Yu Youwei's heart that was stimulated by Li Xingzhou's self-confidence immediately dimmed.

After a calm thought, the boy ...... After all, it's just an arrogant maniac!

How is it possible to compete with Dongfang Qiu......

"Okay"

Li Xingzhou turned around after finishing writing, but saw Shen Yu Youwei stunned there, with a disheartened expression on her face.

He didn't come over, but returned to his seat with a faint smile, and poured a bottle of Persian grape again.

On the contrary, the persimmon was reading with relish while grinding the ink.

Lian was stained with ink and didn't even notice it.

For a long time, when the two Xiaoice fish in the glass bottle were about to melt, Yu Youwei came out of her thoughts.

Since it's all written, let's take a look!

Slowly moving her steps, Yu Youwei walked to the bookcase and looked down.

At that time, the persimmon was indulging in Li Xingzhou's strokes, and suddenly felt a dark fragrance attacking.

Persimmon looked up and saw that the white rabbit he had been thinking about was in front of him, and he was about to have a nosebleed.

Fortunately, Li Xing supported him on Monday, otherwise his hard-earned image would have been ruined.

"Brother Yu?"

"I know the Yellow River, where is the fog?"

Persimmon raised his head from Li Xingzhou's lyrics and looked at Li Xingzhou suspiciously.

"Shh~"

Li Xingzhou made a gesture to him not to disturb.

Lu Zhu, who stayed in the room and waited, looked at Li Xingzhou, who was comfortable and comfortable, and then looked at Yu Youwei, who was silent and silent over there, and felt full of thoughts in her heart.

It's not been a day or two with Yu Youwei, Lu Zhu still has some knowledge, and he also knows what Dongfang Qiu's status is in the poetry world.

It is precisely because of this that she also doesn't believe that this young man named Li Xingzhou can compete with Dongfang Qiu.

It's just that this boy and the handsome persimmon boy are indeed ...... Not bad.

I just hope that after the young lady reads the poems he wrote, she won't be embarrassed and angry and let him out.

Scholars always have a good face, and if such a thing spreads again, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not become a laughing stock, which may delay his future in the imperial examination.

Lu Zhu muttered in her heart, and she paid extra attention to Yu Youwei's movements.

It just makes her wonder how many words can a song and poem have? The young lady has obviously been watching for a long time, why is she still standing there motionless?

When she saw that Yu Youwei's face was flushed, all her worries fell to the ground.

If it's bad, it's bad, the young lady must be angry, and if this attack starts, it is not possible to call someone to fork Li Xingzhou out.

Lu Zhu hurriedly glanced at Li Xingzhou, signaling him to hurry up and leave, although it was a little embarrassing, it was better than being forked out.

What made Luzhu depressed was that Li Xingzhou clearly saw her eyes, but he didn't mean to leave, and smiled at her kindly.

Lu Zhu sighed in her heart, and walked quickly to Yu Youwei's side, thinking quickly about how to help Li Xingzhou Mi sew.

She had just arrived, and she hadn't spoken. saw Shen Yu Youwei turn around violently, and her terrifyingly bright eyes stared at Li Xingzhou,

"It's the lyrics"

Lu Zhu looked at the young lady's rapidly rising and falling breasts, and then looked at the flush on her face, and the terrifyingly bright eyes......

No, it's not like an angry heart, it's a sign of ecstasy.

Could it be ...... This...... How is this possible?

Li Xingzhou took a small sip of wine, and said in a light voice.

"I heard that Su Yujing's singing voice is known for being graceful and affectionate, and this kind of singing voice complements each other to sing the beautiful and elegant palace songs and poems of the Oriental."

"And Miss Yu Youwei's singing voice is bright and moving, if such a singing voice also sings the popular palace style, then it will not be able to win Su Yujing in any case."

"It's not about the level of skill, it's about the talent."

"And Xiaosheng's poem is most suitable for Kanto Dahan to sing with an allegro in his hand, and now he just took it out to save Sister Yu's urgency."

"I only have poems but no songs, what kind of music should be composed to match the poems, and I have to work hard for all the masters and musicians in your building to think about it."

What Li Xingzhou said is naturally a little clear to Shen Yu Youwei, who can be called a master of singing and dancing.

Fu went back and read the lyrics of this song written by Li Xingzhou.

Yu Youwei still raised a few questions.

"Open your resume

I found that you didn't get anything

How to look at yourself

How to spend time"

There is a sentence in the slave family that is not worth saying, Li Gongzi's front sentence "A laugh in the sea, surging on both sides of the strait" can be called a masterpiece of singing, and the last few sentences are not a little inexplicable? ”

belch

I knew it would be so troublesome.

Li Xingzhou felt helpless in his heart, but he still said very calmly.

"When I was studying in Shuzhong, I saw two children arguing about the day. . . ."

"Ah, no, I saw a young man singing these few words of country language, although it is vulgar, but it has a special flavor when you read it carefully."

Persimmon was about to ask Li Xingzhou when he would study in Shuzhong, but he was frightened by Li Xingzhou's eyes and immediately changed his words.

But Yu Youwei's mind didn't notice.

Not only did her mood not calm down, but her heart was beating faster and faster.

Since her debut at the age of twelve, she has sung many songs and poems over the years, and she can perceive the weight of this inexplicable poem just by feeling......

"Green beads, quickly invite the eldest lady and invite them to bring the musical instruments here."

When Lu Zhu heard the command, he immediately turned around and left, and walked to the door.

Yu Youwei's voice chased after her again.

"After inviting those people, they went to the account room to pay 100 yuan of money and polish the pen for Li Gongzi"

100 !!

Even in Luoyang, this can be regarded as a very good amount of money.

What did Li Gongzi write that made the young lady give up such a lot of money!

What kind of song is worth a hundred?!

It's hard to see that this refreshing Li Gongzi can really compete with Dongfang Qiu?!

This...... How is this possible?

With full of doubts, Luzhu quickly walked out of the boudoir.

Behind......
