Everyone circled around Luoyang City, and Bao Zhixian went to see the same year. Li Xiancheng also went to the yamen if he had something to do, Ye Sheng took Ning Er to the vicinity of Wenfeng Pagoda first, and then found an inn to complain. Everyone who is sleeping in the open these days is really tired, so after resting for a while, Ning Er accompanied Ye Sheng to the hall and ordered a few side dishes for dinner. Because it was the Mid-Autumn Festival and the first time to go out, Ning Er was very excited and shouted to go to the street to see the lights.

Ye Sheng was still very familiar with Luoyang City in his previous life, and he had been to Lijingmen, Mingtang, and Paradise Scenic Spots. However, at that time, the old buildings were demolished and new buildings were built. If you look closely, there are all traces of artificiality, and there is no sense of history of ancient buildings and traces left by the years. In previous lives, we were very dissatisfied with these phenomena. The first few times I came to Luoyang, I was in a hurry, and this time was long, so I could take this trip to Luoyang to see the customs of Luoyang City in the Song Dynasty.

The two of them came out of the hotel with the entourage specially arranged by the Luoyang Grand Canal Dart Bureau for Ye Sheng's safety, and walked into the street near Luoyang Xiguan not far away. Luoyang is a city that never sleeps, with all kinds of building lights flashing, and the sound of shouting and selling on the interface is endless. The prosperity of Luoyang is coming, and the prosperity of Luoyang is real. This can be seen from the disturbance on the canal wharf, and when he got to the wharf and walked all the way to the city, Ye Sheng's feeling was similar to the feeling of the first time people visited Shanghai in later generations, there were many people and cars, compared with the city in front of him, Mengjin County, which was originally quite big, was like a countryside. But after all, Ye Sheng traveled over in the later life, and he has seen a lot of big cities, so he was not as surprised as Ning'er. On the road, the canal dart bureau was served by Di Qing's veterans. knew that his good life in the future was going to fall on the young man in front of him, so he deliberately greeted him. Introduce Ye Sheng to the Hu people of various countries on the interface. An old soldier in his 40s is named Yang Zhi, and I heard that he is a member of the Yang family's branch. I have a good marksmanship. With a spear with three sections removed on his back, he was walking to introduce Ye Sheng to the Hu people on the interface.

This is the Persian Hu, the capital with the most. That one...... Look at the black and brown people who are overseas South Kunlun, young master, if you are interested, you can buy two Kunlun slaves, these guys have no other skills, and the water nature is really good; Look at the brahmin with half of his shoulders bare", walking all the way to the city, Yang Zhi pointed and introduced the passing guests to Tang Cheng on both sides, "This is from the Lion Country, Dashi Country, these two are interesting, one looks like a white barbarian." One looks like a red barbarian, how did he actually walk into a building, this...... Bone Tang Kingdom, damn him, he must be from Bone Tang Kingdom."

When Ye Sheng was a student, he also read Sima Guang when he was a student, "Luoyang is the most blooming in spring, and there are 100,000 families in the red and green shade." After reading some other information, I also know that Luoyang has a large population, and a large number of Hu people have settled here. A group of people slowly came out of the Lijing Gate and walked along the Grand Canal.

From here, you can see the painting boat parade on the Grand Canal, the lights on both sides of the river are bright, Luoyang on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival is not closed, and the excitement and joy will last all night, and it will not disperse until the early morning of the next day. At this time, the streets of the city are full of people, at the point of time not long after dinner, people come out from each house, the streets and alleys go to the most prosperous street centered on Wenfeng Pagoda and Kyushu Pond, the road lanterns are like weaving, like a mighty and unquenchable fire, the hawkers shout loudly, the dragon and lion dance team walks by, beating gongs and drums, there are also jugglers gathering on the street, the faint singing of soliciting guests is heard in the brothel of a family, and sometimes you can see the dance inside, From time to time, people come in and out, and it is very lively. In such a carnival day, a little famous Qinglou woman has a place to go tonight, occasionally in the hall can still find a seat, from time to time on the street will come to the news that a certain poetry will have a certain new work, this is one of the highlights of tonight, and then you can hear a certain famous prostitute in a certain green building will sing this poem, and then you can hear the news that another masterpiece will be released in a certain poem, the talents compete with each other, the beauties will decorate these talents with a beautiful crimson atmosphere, most people enjoy the lanterns, Looking at the bustle, in such an atmosphere, you can feel the legacy of the Wei and Jin dynasties, and the elegance of the Tang Dynasty, but that's it.

The way of ancient poetry has flourished since the Tang Dynasty, and after hundreds of years of development, poetry is one of the basic genres of literature, poetry is mainly recited, the so-called poetry should be recited in its words, and songs should be sung in its voice. Poetry is mostly written for feelings. Poetry is one of the most universal arts. The forms of poetry are varied. The ancient style poems of the Tang Dynasty basically have two types: five characters and seven words. There are also two kinds of close poems, one is called quatrain, and the other is called rhythmic poetry. Ancient style poems have relatively wide requirements for rhyme and rhythm: in a poem, the number of sentences can be more or less, the chapters can be long or short, and the rhyme can be transformed. The requirements for the rhyme and rhythm of the near-body poems are relatively strict: the number of sentences in a poem is limited, that is, four quatrains and eight sentences of rhythmic poems. The lyric also requires the middle four lines to be a battle. The style of ancient style poetry is handed down from previous generations, so it is also called ancient style. Near-style poetry has a strict rhythm, so some people also call it a rhythmic poem. Therefore, it is generally believed in cultural circles that poetry had reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty.

Words, a type of poetry. Ci is a kind of music literature, its generation, development, as well as creation, circulation are directly related to music, the early stage of the word is extremely gorgeous and flashy, popular in the market and wine shops, is a popular art form, began in the Sui Dynasty, stereotyped in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, flourished in the Song Dynasty. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the music of various ethnic groups introduced from the Western Regions gradually merged with the old music of the Central Plains, and Yan music was mainly produced with Hu music. The original neat five- and seven-character poems were no longer suitable, so words with unequal words and more lively forms were produced. Words originated from the folk, and later, the literati wrote new words according to the rhythm of the musical score, which was called "filling in the words" or "relying on the sound". From then on, words and music were separated, forming a kind of rhythmic poem with uneven sentences. 5. The seven-character poems are symmetrical and dual, showing neat beauty; The words are mainly long and short sentences, showing uneven beauty. The rhyme of the word is the place where there is a musical pause. Generally, the rhyme is not changed. Some are rhymed, some are rhymed, and some are rhymed. Like five- and seven-character poems, the words are plain. And the voices have to be divided, going, and entering. You can overlap words, and words in Ye Sheng's opinion, the current Song Dynasty words have just emerged.

At this time, in Luoyang City, Xiguan, Xiaobeimen and other places are the most lively and prosperous commercial streets, in these places, there are a number of merchants put out of the display boards, each poetry will be able to get the poems gathered one after another, occasionally someone recites loudly, and some merchants arrange for a girl who can sing a song to sing a paragraph, on the street, in the nearby teahouse restaurant, in a large and small gathering, the literati and students shake their heads and comment on the best poems, and evaluate whose poems can be sung the longest, Even the small people in the market who have never studied can feel such an artistic conception in such an atmosphere, and discuss with the people around them, and get some elegance.

The poetry meeting of the Mid-Autumn Festival, most of them will take the moon as the theme, but naturally they will not only write about the moon all night, some poetry will have restrictions, the host is more strong, everyone chats happily, and the poetry club is a topic of interest, the poetry club is a literati society, and there are also more-for-tat or secretly competitive, such as Lizheng Academy and Yingtian Academy are in full swing for this battle. After hearing the topic of the debut of Lizheng Academy, Yingtian Academy heard the topic over there, someone from Yingtian Academy immediately stood up and said: "A poem about the moon, Xiaosheng also has an occasional poem" and then said it and then commented on it very calmly. In other words, if the level of poetry is almost the same, it will naturally not be judged. But if a masterpiece comes out, it will be immediately distinguished.
