Chapter 104: The Qinglou Literary Society (6)
Highly recommended:
. Starters, oh dear
It's good to see this last one.
The reason why poetry and song are the finale is because the Tang people in this era are very romantic. Although the Tang people were not rich at this time, the national strength and the people's wealth have been rising. The steady growth of economic strength has made this part of the "people who got rich first" begin to pay attention to the pursuit of the spiritual level. And the most critical place here is inseparable from the vigorous promotion of Emperor Li Shimin, in the first year of Zhenguan's imperial examination, Li Shimin officially added poetry to the content of the imperial examination, and it also accounted for a large proportion of the papers. Tang poetry officially became a compulsory subject for scholars and literati in the Tang Dynasty.
This is called "what is good at the top, and what is good at the bottom".
After confirming that the first four competitions were officially over, Ouyang Xun opened his slightly cloudy eyes and signaled that the old servant could start the last content.
Yan Liben and the others also bowed back, and only the old man had the final say in this final evaluation. The rest are not eligible to beak it. This is Ouyang Xun's power as a "commander".
The old servant was about to unfold the scroll of paper in his hand, and inside was the theme of today's poem, which the old man had written before going to bed last night.
The literati at the bottom are eager to wear it, no matter how loose the performance in front of them is. As long as this last item is done, then this meeting will be counted. As long as the poetry is done well, it is inevitable to become famous. The chirping rich ladies on the second floor are the best at doing such things. Moreover, the scholars who won the first place also had the opportunity to be recommended by the old sacrificial wine.
The imperial examination is the right way, but although the Jiupin Zhongzheng system has not been mentioned much, its influence still exists.
The reason for the expansion of the gate valve and the deep-rooted family is because they hold many positions inside and outside the court. Although the positions above the fourth rank have been lost after Li Shimin took power, the noble positions such as Guanglu Temple, Honglu Temple, Guozijian, and Hanlin Academy still rely on the recommendation and appointment of important ministers in the court. When the Ministry of Literature and Literature Selection Department selects officials, the recommendation of important ministers is also an important criterion.
Being able to get Ouyang Xun's recommendation or Qinghe Cui's help is an opportunity for these young people to rise to the top.
Therefore, the scene began to be a little riotous.
Such an occasion was full of temptation for the literati, and even Du Jiuzhang felt like he was gearing up. He had already received a "fair" comment, and if he took out the slightest bit of good words from the mouth of the old priest wine lord. Then his good days in Guozijian have come, and it is not impossible to change from the lower three schools to the upper three schools. Thinking of this, Du Jiuzhang's heart became more and more surging.
However, there are still some people who are not impressed by such an atmosphere.
After the twists and turns just now, Chen Bodhi and Xiaoman no longer plan to stay. However, I ordered a table of wine and food, and I am really sorry for the money spent if I don't finish eating, and this table of dishes is really not cheap. Xiaoman and Chen Bodhi glanced at each other and smiled, and the two of them started at the same time, and there were afterimages of the chopsticks dancing. Xiao Man has some baby fat cheeks, which fill up with food. Get rid of a greedy little hamster, and go back and forth to call a whirlwind cloud. The behavior of these two people before and after really has to be sideways, but who cares.
Old man Ouyang Xun's eyes were also attracted by these two young men with red lips and white teeth, and after looking at it for a while, he gave a warm smile, and he didn't think that there was anything wrong with what these two children were doing.
The two of them were eating fragrantly, and suddenly found that there was no sound around.
"Did you scare the crowd?"
Chen Bodhi raised his head suspiciously, and then saw a beautiful woman walking towards him.
This is a beauty, a rare beauty. The reason why adjectives such as peerless are not used is because this woman did not grow the kind of earth-shattering appearance of ghosts and gods. For example, Sister Jinse can't compare, and she is probably between her and Hongyi. But sometimes, the reason why a goddess is a goddess is because a goddess is generally contrary to ordinary people.
To put it simply, there is an out-of-phase.
There is no doubt that this woman is the last session, the last session, the last session. The façade of Yingge Garden is in charge, and she has been awarded three consecutive Oiran Smoke Girls.
If the initial impression of Miss Twilight on Chen Bodhi can be described in two words, it is contrast. If you describe it in four words, it is a strong contrast.
A bright red skirt will be exposed, and the skin above the chest will be extremely white. It is said that a white covers a hundred ugliness, and this twilight is a little unscientific. And it's that eye-catching ivory white. Jet-black hair, double rings hanging down. The simple golden step shake has become the most unsimple decoration. The red lips and the fire pattern used to embellish the forehead should have bewitched the twilight smoke.
But on the contrary, when you actually see this person. But I don't seem to have any blasphemy in my heart. This face is cold, and it seems to be more like a god in the sky who does not eat fireworks in the world than a demon.
The strong contrast makes some people speechless, while the rest of the people have dark eyes.
"Is the old bachelor well?"
Twilight Yan saluted towards Old Man Ouyang's void.
"Well, Ankang, Ankang......"
Ouyang Xun saw Dusk for the first time, but the old man just took a look at it, and it was just a glance, and the old man lived to be more than 70 years old. After two dynasties and four generations, what kind of woman has not been seen? Zhang Lihua, the queen of the Chen Dynasty, and Xiao Meiniang, the queen of the former dynasty. Which one is not peerless, the world's most glamorous? But in the end, it's not about suffering.
It's just a pink skull......
Li Mao's eyes are about to burst into flames, he is a hungry ghost in color, and the eldest girl and little daughter-in-law in Chang'an City can be said to be talking about tiger color change. Usually, this Li Mao has the effect of cleaning the street when he goes out. When Twilight Yan won the Oiran, Li Mao tried his best to kiss Fang Ze. If it weren't for the good life of the twilight smoke, there would be a mountain behind him. I'm afraid that there are no bones left that have been gnawed a long time ago.
Li Mao has always been haunted by this matter, and his resentment is so deep that he once got drunk and lost his words. complained about the two brothers of the Cui family, why didn't they die young. Yang Li knew about this. So his eyes when he looked at Li Mao were even more unpredictable.
After Twilight Smoke saluted, he made a blessing to the audience. Then she walked towards Xiaoxiang Pavilion, after all, even if she didn't want to. The fact that there are a lot of people sitting here to help her can't be erased, and Hu's mother's entrustment is also tied to Cui Yufo's body.
When passing by Chen Bodhi's side, Twilight Yan also subconsciously looked at it. The people who can eat and drink on such occasions more or less arouse her curiosity. But it's a pity that Chen Bodhi just smiled at the twilight, his eyes were clear, there was no admiration, no **, some were just polite greetings.
And Xiaoman, he didn't look up from beginning to end.
