Chapter 189: Finally Waiting for the Literary Meeting to Open
"You're not lying to me, this young man doesn't look to be twenty years old. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is he more powerful than those old gentlemen in this state? "Naturally, the people who ask this kind of question are those who have never read a book, but they like to bask in the sun and idle on the edge of the south wall.
"You don't understand that. Poetry is such a thing, one looks at knowledge, and the other also looks at talent. It's not that you can write better than young people when you're older. Some people may not be able to write as much as a teenager in their lifetime. There are many examples of this kind of thing from ancient times to the present. It is the rumored Ganluo Twelve Worshippers, if you think about how many officials have been officials since ancient times, how many people can do this. The scholar next to him gave an example that was not very appropriate, but it just explained the difference between literature and learning.
After listening to this scholar's words, the surrounding group of people couldn't help but be speechless. I didn't expect this young man in the field to have such a ability.
At this time, Luo Yan looked at the few Confucian scholars sitting in front of him and asked, "I have passed this test." "I thought that no one could pass the test, but at this moment I was passed by a young man. And at this level, these people actually have an urge not to evaluate.
It's totally scary. I've never seen anyone drink for a few moments, and then they read a piece of it, and the level is not low.
"I dare not comment on your talent. The wine is counted on the heads of those who are waiting. It is rare to write the poetry of the Golden State, and today it is not in vain. Among them, a scribe who looked to be in his mid-thirties sent a purple post to Luo Yan. Then he turned to the side of his body, and with a guide of his right hand, he motioned for Luo Yan to go in.
Listening to the scribe's words, Luo Yan also had some good feelings. He bowed his hand to the scribe and said, "I'm ashamed." I also brought a partner with me, I wonder if you can go in with me? ”
The scribe shook his head and replied, "The fifth floor is small, which makes the question more difficult. I'm really sorry. These words couldn't help but explain the reason for this test method, and also cut off Qin Ren'an's hope of going up to the fifth floor together. Helpless, Luo Yan could only say sorry to Qin Ren'an, who was standing not far away, and went upstairs alone.
Watching Luo Yan's emaciated back gradually be blocked by the doors and windows of the restaurant, this aroused the competitiveness of many scholars. Everyone is about the same age, and even Luo Yan is younger than himself and the others. Regardless of this literary brilliance, even this courage is better than others, how can this be.
For a while, many people poured into the venue and began to draw their own exam questions.
When he went up to the second floor, Luo Yan realized that the purple post in his hand represented the number of layers. I think it corresponds to the official uniform of the Korean Chinese military officials. It is also a kind of expectation of these people for the scholars who go to catch the exam. But it's clear that there are only a few purple posts.
Turning his gaze to the inside of the Xiangman Building, Luo Yan had already stepped up to the third floor at this time. Unlike the unobstructed tables and chairs on the lower two floors, the third floor is already separated by carved wooden panels, and now the sunlight shines through the open windows, and the carvings reflect different shapes on the floor.
On the fourth floor, there are several private rooms, and Luo Yan went straight to the fifth floor without looking carefully.
At this time, there were only a few servants on the fifth floor watching. Luo Yan came in with a purple post, immediately put away his laziness, stepped forward, and respectfully invited Luo Yan to a place by the window to rest for a while. When Luo Yan sat down, he brought refreshments.
Idle and bored, Luo Yan stood up and looked at the scenery outside the window. It happened that below this position was the main entrance of the fragrant building, and when I looked down, I saw that there were dozens of scholars writing something on the field at this moment. There was a group of people around him who were cheering or laughing. The one who was ridiculed also hid his face and hurried away.
When someone saw Luo Yan poking his head out to look at the scene below on the fifth floor, someone began to coax. "That little Langjun, this scholar can't write poetry, or you can help him."
It happened that a scholar chose a four-story poem, thinking that it was a quirk of the topic, but he didn't make it at the specified time. The crowd of onlookers naturally didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, but they actually pulled Luo Yan out to talk about it. For such a thing, Luo Yan was somewhat sympathetic to the scholar. Originally, he was arrogant and chose to compose poetry, but who would have thought that the boat would capsize.
It doesn't matter if the boat capsizes, it is still laughed at by so many people. Intending to solve the siege, Luo Yan said: "The article is natural, and the magic hand can get it." You say he can't do it, you can do it. ”
A rhetorical retort made many people stunned for a moment, and then immediately burst into laughter.
I could only hear people from below saying, "You can do it." ”
"Did I say anything, why am I on, I just don't go."
"If you don't go, then you can't."
"How can a man say no, but even if you say I can't, I won't go. I just can't do the kind of thing that a reader does when writing poetry. Besides, as long as my mother-in-law knows that I can do it. I can only admire the wisdom of the working people, and for a time they actually told such jokes into meat jokes.
However, such jokes made the atmosphere in the audience lighten up a bit. With this sentence, you are at the bottom, but there are more scholars who have strengthened their courage and stepped forward to try their luck.
Luo Yan waited for about an hour, and finally someone came up. Hearing the sound of tapping on the stairs, Luo Yan looked back and saw that he was a middle-aged man who was a little older, but in good spirits. I saw that this person saw Luo Yan, and he also had the intention to make friends, so he stepped forward and asked: "In the next Ji Nong, I just heard Xiao Langjun's poetry, and it is definitely not a person." But why haven't I seen it before? ”
Ji Nong also wondered in his heart, it stands to reason that Luo Yan's level is much stronger than the three sons who are boiling over, why is he still not famous?
Mr. Ji was polite. In Xia Luoyan, it was also Jinzhou that only came a few days ago. I heard that some people would get drunk in this article, so they came to eat wine. Luo Yan didn't want to reveal his identity yet. After all, I haven't seen what kind of virtue those students in the state school are, which exposes itself in advance, but shows some weakness.
"Haha, Little Brother Luo is also a wonderful person. But think about it, with the talent of the little brother, I am afraid that he also went to Chang'an for the scientific examination this year. Don't you know that the organizer of this cultural meeting is the third son who vowed to cover this year's scientific expedition. The little brother came up today, I'm afraid it's a hard time. Obviously, this person is also unhappy, those people tout each other that there is no lower limit, but they are beginning to worry that Luo Yan will be targeted.
"I'm here just for good wine. If you can drink two more glasses, it will be worth it. At this moment, Luo Yan turned into a drunkard and talked and laughed with Ji Nong.
"Haha, I'm not afraid of Little Brother Luo's jokes, in fact, I'm also here for wine." Laughing embarrassedly, Ji Nong said angrily: "It's not because I'm older and I don't have the heart to do scientific research." Because of this, I didn't even say hello. He didn't wait for me, so I came myself. ”
Although what Ji Nong said was a little childish, Luo Yan also knew that Ji Nong's ability was definitely not small. couldn't help but persuade: "Why doesn't Mr. Ji continue to try the scientific examination." Being able to go up to the fifth floor today is a scientific expedition, and it is much stronger than the so-called third son. Why don't you go? ”
Ji Nong took a sip of tea and said a little leisurely: "At the beginning, I was fame and fame in order to have some money to take care of my family. Now that I have some money, I drink and read books, and I am happy, and I have forgotten what fame is. ”
"It's still Mr. Ji who can see it, how can I go back and forth like this." Luo Yan looked at Ji Nong's clothes, and he was indeed getting rich and rich, but he couldn't see the slightest poverty. Knowing that this person was really that kind of hermit, he became more and more polite.
"Little brother, you're wrong. When you are young, you should move forward bravely, even if you are old, there is no result, at least there are no regrets. Just like me now, when I was young, I didn't get the scientific examination several times, and now I don't envy them anymore when I look at them rushing to take the exam. ”
The two chatted like this.
It wasn't until near noon that a number of people suddenly came to the fifth floor. Without exception, these people were holding big red invitations in their hands, and when they came in and saw Luo Yan and Ji Nong, they sat in the positions that had been arranged a long time ago without saying a word.
Seeing this, Luo Yan smiled bitterly, it turned out that he thought that he had written something, and he would give some preferential treatment no matter how he said it. I never thought that I would have to accompany the last seat now. Ji Nong, on the other hand, drank tea leisurely, and said after seeing Luo Yan's wry smile: "Let's come up to mix wine, don't think too much." Let's talk about you, wait for this year's scientific examination, squeeze the three sons off the list one by one, and then you can look at him. ”
After hearing this, Luo Yan looked up to Ji Nong more and more. Young people of his age have any festivals, that is, they compete with each other at this meeting. But Ji Nong's words seemed to encourage Luo Yan to take the exam well. This brings us to a psychological problem. Compared with the pressure of scientific research, this humiliation in front of him is nothing.
It was noon, and I saw a commotion on the other side of the stairs, and it turned out that the so-called third prince walked in with many masters from the state school. Many of the people here were students of the state school, and when they saw those masters, they were very respectful. There were only a few who didn't bow down for a while.
When those masters swept their eyes to Luo Yan, seeing that he was so young and unruly, some people were a little dissatisfied in their hearts. But after all, they are also guests, so it's hard to say anything. But the third son, seeing someone like this, snorted coldly. When these people sat down, all the seats were left with the first one, which was supposed to be reserved for Yu Thorn Shi.
It seems that they have been informed a long time ago, and the three sons did not wait for Yu Tingshi any longer, so they took the lead and held a banquet.
"Thank you for your support, and thank you for your appreciation, for today's event. I have always been an outstanding person in Jinzhou, and now I am even more prosperous. Today's meeting is for this reason. ”
When Luo Yan heard this, he not only pouted. Although the Wenhui covers the entire Xiangmanlou, the real point of the Wenhui is still on the fifth floor. You set the requirements of the fifth floor so high, and you just don't want people to come in and disturb your plan to build momentum, and you are still bragging about it here. (To be continued.) )
