Chapter 296: Han Qi Visits
Han Qi and a group of young scholars asked the monks guarding the door for pen and ink, and then came to the outer wall to prepare a poem, but at this moment, they suddenly heard someone shouting: "Come and see, here is Liu Qilang's pen and ink!" ”
Liu Qilang is also Liu Yong, the original name changed three times, and later changed to Liu Yong, and because of the line seven, so he was called Liu Qilang, he was already famous at this time, although he tried repeatedly, but because of the style of words beautiful and graceful, he became a famous talent in reading, it is said that as long as Liu Ci came out, the whole capital will sing in the blink of an eye.
"On the gold list, I occasionally miss the leader. The temporary legacy of the Ming Dynasty, how to. The attempt is convenient, and the struggle is not to wander wildly. Why mourn? Talented lyricist, he is a white-clothed ......"
At this time, someone also began to chant Liu Yong's words on the wall, but Han Qi interrupted after listening to a few words: "Everyone, we are going to participate in the imperial examination next year, isn't it good to read this poem "Crane Soaring to the Sky" now?" ”
Everyone immediately woke up when they heard Han Qi's words, it turned out that this song "Crane Soaring to the Sky on the Gold List" was written by Liu Yong after he fell to the top, and the words were full of frustration and dissatisfaction after falling off the list, although the words were good words, but it was not a good sign for them who were going to participate in the imperial examination.
"Brother Zhigui, we are all children of saints, why do you care about these, I like Liu Qilang's poem quite much, and I must transcribe it later!" At this moment, I saw that Uncle Yong just now stood up again and said, he is also an arrogant character, and he is usually quite arrogant, so he also has a sense of pity for Liu Yong.
Hearing this Uncle Yong's words, Han Qi just smiled slightly and didn't say anything more, because he knew this Uncle Yong's temperament, and it was useless to argue with him on this kind of matter. On the contrary, the others felt a little unlucky, and argued with Uncle Yong for a few words, but they were speechless by the eloquence of the other party.
Since Liu Yong's words were discovered, other people also began to look carefully at the other poems on the wall, and from time to time they could find some poems from famous artists, which also attracted many people to chant one after another.
"Qingyu Case: Yuan Xi", the east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and it blows down, and the stars are like rain. BMW carved cars are full of fragrance. The sound of the phoenix flute moves, the light of the jade pot turns, and the fish and dragon dance all night......"
At this moment, someone finally discovered the Qingyu case left by Li Zhang, and with the recitation of this person, it also slowly attracted the attention of other people around, after all, the artistic conception and words of this poem far exceed other words, even compared with Liu Qilang, it is not inferior, especially the last sentence "The crowd is looking for him thousands of times, and suddenly looking back, but the person is there, and the lights are dim", which made the artistic conception of the whole poem reach a peak, which made everyone silent, and did not come out of the artistic conception of the word for a long time.
"Good words! What a word! As soon as this first yuan is released, I am afraid that there will be no supreme yuan word that can surpass it in the future! After a while, someone suddenly shouted, and his voice woke everyone up, and for a time everyone was discussing the poem.
"I originally wanted to write a poem that suited the occasion here, but after seeing this poem, I really didn't have the face to give it down!" I saw that Uncle Yong, who had always been arrogant, suddenly shook his head and said dejectedly at this time, he has always been disobedient to others, but he was willing to lose when he saw this word, it is worth mentioning that this Uncle Yong's surname is Ouyang, and his single name is a word, he and Han Qi are Jinshi of the same department, of course, now both of them are just ordinary scholars.
"Hey, strange, this poem was obviously just written, it should have been written tonight, but why is it not signed?" At this moment, someone suddenly shouted again, the poems on the wall usually leave the author's name, but this one is not signed.
After this person's reminder, other people also found out about this, and they also discussed it at the moment, after all, such a good work, but there is no author's name, this is really strange, after all, as a reader, they like to be famous for their poetry, and this is obviously a good opportunity to become famous in the capital, but the other party wasted it, I don't know if the other party missed it or deliberately did not write?
"This handwriting ......" At this moment, I saw that Han Qi, who had not spoken, suddenly frowned and said, although he was also fascinated by this word just now, his attention was mainly on the handwriting on it, because he felt that this handwriting was very familiar, and even vaguely guessed a person, but he couldn't believe it.
"Words are good words, but the words are indeed a little worse, and it is a little strange to look closely, but the other party may be good at words, after all, not everyone is good at calligraphy." Ouyang Xiu next to him also spoke at this time, and he also noticed that the handwriting of this poem was a little strange, although it was not bad for ordinary people, but it was a little worse compared to such a superior word.
Ouyang Xiu's words were also agreed by others, but Han Qi knew that they had misunderstood him, because the reason why he paid attention to the handwriting of the words was mainly because he had seen the same handwriting, although he was not in the capital in the past few years, he also had occasional correspondence with Li Zhang, so he was still very familiar with Li Zhang's handwriting, especially Li Zhang's hard pen calligraphy in his previous life, and now when he writes brushes, he will unconsciously bring a little bit of hard pen calligraphy, which is also unique in the Great Song Dynasty.
However, although Han Qi guessed that this poem was written by Li Zhang, he did not say it, because in his impression, although Li Zhang was extremely smart and knew a lot of strange truths, he didn't seem to have studied poetry, so he couldn't believe that this wonderful poem would come from him.
Ouyang Xiu didn't know Han Qi's thoughts, and they also commented on this poem at the moment, and then they took pens and began to copy it down, originally they borrowed pen and ink to inscribe the poem, but after seeing this poem, they no longer had this mood, and now they just wrote down this new word, because there was no paper, so someone wrote it directly on their clothes.
After Ouyang Xiu silently wrote down this poem in his heart, he suddenly turned around and came to the door of Daxiangguo Temple, and then asked the monk guarding the door, hoping to find out the author of this poem from them, but the monk guarding the door said that there were too many people who came to inscribe the poem today, so they didn't pay attention.
However, these monks were very shrewd, and when they saw that these scholars attached so much importance to this poem, they immediately reported it to the monks inside, and then some monks protected the poem, because they knew that after the preaching of these young scholars, the poem would soon become famous in the capital, and many people would definitely come to appreciate it.
Han Qi and these people discussed for a long time in front of the Daxiangguo Temple, and finally did not leave until the sky was bright, but some people did not rest, but energetically ran to find friends to share this new word, and the result was spread ten, ten and hundred, in just one day, this word began to spread in the capital, and at the same time, it also attracted many people to run to the gate of the Daxiangguo Temple to enjoy.
It's just that everyone is very curious about the author of this poem, but there is no result in guessing, and no one claims that this poem is from their own hand, after all, the handwriting of this poem is very peculiar, and it is difficult for others to imitate it.
Han Qi returned to the inn where he lived, but he couldn't sleep, his second brother Han Xuan was promoted last year and went to the south to be a judge, so he had no place to live in the capital, after all, Han Xuan didn't buy a house in the capital at the beginning, and Han Qi also came to the capital after the Chinese New Year, and he only lived here for seven or eight days, and there were many scholars like him in this inn, such as Ouyang Xiu and most of them also lived here.
Han Qi didn't plan to see Li Zhang, you must know that now Li Zhang is a famous magnate in the Great Song Dynasty, not only has a close relationship with the palace, but also has made military achievements, and is also in charge of the extremely important firearms supervisor, in contrast, Han Qi is still just an ordinary scholar, and under the reversal of this status, Han Qi does not want to see Li Zhang.
In addition, Han Qi also wants to be admitted to the imperial examination with his own strength, and he is still confident in this, after all, he has been a famous prodigy since he was a child, and he also made a lot of friends when he was in the capital, and he is also quite famous among young scholars, and the middle school is not too difficult for him, so he wants to visit Li Zhang again after winning the Jinshi, so that the two will not be too different in status.
However, today's poem disrupted Han Qi's plan, and the handwriting of the words was obviously Li Zhang's, which he believed would never be wrong, such a unique handwriting, others couldn't imitate it if they wanted to, but would Li Zhang really write such exquisite words?
Thinking of the above, Han Qi couldn't sleep at all, even if he felt very tired after playing all night, he didn't feel the slightest sleepiness, and he kept thinking about that poem in his head, and he really wanted to go to Li Zhang now to ask for clarification.
In the end, Han Qi had been tossing and turning in bed until almost noon, and he really felt that he couldn't sleep, so he simply got up and got dressed, then ate something casually at the inn, and then walked around the street a few times, and finally decided to go to Li Zhang to ask clearly, otherwise he would really be at ease, and he had been in the capital for so long, and it was a little unreasonable not to visit Li Zhang.
At this time, it was already afternoon, and Han Qi estimated that Li Zhang should have woken up, so he went to buy some gifts, and then inquired about Li Zhang's residence, and then walked towards Li Zhang's house.
When Han Qi left the capital, Li Zhang had not yet recognized Liu E, and the family also lived in a restaurant, but now Li Zhang is already a famous relative of the Great Song Dynasty, and the mansion used to be Wang Qinruo's prime minister's mansion, so Han Qi also easily found Li Zhang's home, and then reported his name, and the door was immediately spread inside, after all, Han Qi was dressed as a scholar, and next year was the year of Dabi, so Menzi did not dare to slack off.
Li Zhang had just woken up at this time and was about to eat something, but he didn't expect Han Qi to come to visit, which made him overjoyed, and he immediately ran out quickly to greet him in person.
