Wang Ji smiled and said: "Li Zuoxiang, your masterpiece is in the wastebasket, you have to see it, why not?" Isn't it true that you question the unfair judgment of these poets? ”

Everyone laughed, and Li Shizhi was speechless.

Suddenly, Yan Zhenqing frowned and said, "By the way, I didn't seem to see Wang Yuan's poems just now, have you seen them, gentlemen?" I don't think I see it. ”

"The old man didn't see it either." Wang Wei frowned and said: "At first, the old man remembered to take a special look at his poems, but then he was confused by those nonsense poems, so he forgot about it. ”

"I haven't seen it either." Wang Changling was also stunned.

"Could it be that this Wang Yuan handed over the blank scroll and didn't write it at all?" Gao Shi frowned.

Everyone looked around for Wang Yuan's figure, but they didn't see Wang Yuan, but they found that there was a piece of poetry paper on it in the corner of the long corner, Yan Zhenqing pointed to the paper and said, "Huh? Whose poetry paper is that piece of poetry? It seems to have written a poem on it. ”

Someone hurriedly handed over the piece of poetry paper, Wang Wei reached out and took it, quickly read the verses on it, stood up suddenly, glared and said, "Where is Wang Yuan?" Where is Wang Yuan? ”

Everyone was stunned, Yan Zhenqing took the poem in Wang Wei's hand, and all the judges gathered together to stretch out their heads to read, and they were all stunned.

Yan Zhenqing sighed: "I'm afraid the winner of the first game is not Du Fu, it should be Wang Yuan's one." The judges nodded in agreement.

Li Linfu changed color and said, "What? ”

Li Shizhi's face showed surprise and said, "What? ”

Wang Wei stood up, hung the poem paper on the side of the bronze bell under the corridor with his own hands, and said, "Look at yourself. "Everyone came forward to watch, but they saw a poem written on the paper upright, one stroke at a time." Untitled poem - written on behalf of Xu Sixteen Niang:

It is difficult to say goodbye when we meet, and the east wind is powerless.

The spring silkworm is dead to the end, and the wax torch turns to ash and tears begin to dry.

Xiaojing but the clouds and temples have changed, and the night chant should feel the cold moonlight.

There is no way to go to Pengshan, and the blue bird is diligent to visit. ”

……

After a brief silence, the people on the mountain let out one after another exclamations. Even people like Li Linfu who are half-versaciful about literature understand that Wang Yuan's poem is indeed written with vigor and compassion.

This matter is cut from the perspective of Sixteen Niang, and the situation of Sixteen Niang's disgraceful departure is described to the fullest. In the middle, the spring silkworm and the candle are used as a metaphor, it seems that Sixteen Niang is expressing the lovesickness of unswerving loyalty to death, and the latter is a metaphor for the current situation of Wang Wei living in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain in places like Penglai Xianxiang, although it is vague, but everyone understands this meaning. The meaning of compassion in the poem is continuous, and it is sad to read.

The old man had to be sincerely admired, and wrote this poem in the mouth of Sixteen Niang, teaching the old man not to be moved. Today, Sixteen Niang came for me, which shows that Sixteen Niang is unforgettable for the old man. As soon as Wang Yuan's poem came out, the old man felt guilty and difficult to dispel. Wang Wei's face was solemn and he said in a deep voice.

"Brother Wang, don't be angry, this poem is Wang Yuan's imagination, and it is bold. But in terms of poetry alone, this poem is really beautifully written. Wang Changling sighed.

"What Brother Changling said is very true, why should Brother Maha be sincere, Wang Yuan doesn't know what happened to you back then, so he naturally writes poems based on his imagination. I read this poem, suddenly had an idea, this poem is very beautiful, and it is written about the love between men and women, if it is played by Li Guinian, please sing it by Sixteen Niang herself, and then let Gongsun Auntie dance with the song, that is really poetry, singing and dancing. Gao Shi smiled.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was leisurely fascinated, if it could really be like this, it would really be a fairy in the world, but this is impossible, Xu Hezi will go to Jiangnan, Gongsun Auntie is gone, Li Guinian is in the capital, but unfortunately who can sing and who can come to dance after composing a song.

"You are too greedy, it is rare to be able to enjoy such a masterpiece today. If it is full, it will be lost, and it is too much, so it is better not to pursue perfection so much. Wang Wei sighed.

Everyone nodded yes, pointing and discussing around the poem, Li Shizhi said with a smile on his face: "Can this poem be the first leader?" ”

Wang Wei and the others all nodded and said: "As soon as this poem comes out, Du Fu's one can only be relegated to second." This poem is well-deserved. ”

Li Shizhi laughed, and smiled at Li Linfu: "Did Xiangguo hear it?" It turned out that I won the first game, and I conceded and conceded, and Xiangguo had to let your subordinates work harder. ”

This was Li Linfu's ridicule of Li Shizhi just now, Li Shizhi's original words were returned, and the comfort in his heart was indescribable. Li Linfu was not annoyed, and said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, this Wang Yuan does have some skills, and he has accepted this scene." ”

A comparison of the attitudes of the two shows that the height of the city government is deep and shallow, and many people secretly think in their hearts that Li Shizhi is inferior to Li Linfu after all, whether it is the amount of equipment or the city government, they are far from being opponents.

In the midst of the chaos, everyone remembered that they had not seen Wang Yuan appear until now, so they searched around, and finally found Wang Yuan by the pond in the corner of the courtyard by two servants, who was sitting by the pool against a stone and basking in the sun. The servants hurriedly invited Wang Yuan to the pavilion, and in the face of everyone's smiling faces, Wang Yuan was a little embarrassed.

"Little Brother Wang, your poem was pushed to the first, and the old man congratulated you." Wang Wei smiled at Wang Yuan for the first time.

Wang Yuan hurriedly returned the salute and said: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, my clumsy work can enter the eyes of your predecessors, and I'm so scared." ”

"However, your poem will make the old man infamous from now on, and people will feel that the old man is ruthless and unrighteous to Sixteen Niang, and he lives up to his deep affection, and I have become a ruthless person."

Wang Yuan thought for a while and said, "If Mr. doesn't want to be said to be a ruthless and unrighteous person, there is a way. ”

Wang Weidao: "Oh? What's the solution? Will you write another poem to justify my name? ”

Wang Yuan shook his head and said: "No, everyone Xu came here to sing today because of Mr., which shows that everyone Xu has a deep affection for Mr. Although I don't know why the two couldn't be together when they were teenagers, if the two parties are really affectionate, why should they care about the world's eyes. The regrets of being young may not be impossible to make up for now. If Mr. can take everyone to Zhongnanshan day and night to get along, wouldn't it be a good story? ”

Everyone was stunned, and some people covered their mouths and laughed.

Li Shizhi shouted: "Presumptuous, how can you talk like this? Do you want to take care of the private affairs of the Maha Gong? I don't care about the bias of your poem, but you still talk nonsense in public. ”

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "Zuo Xianggong, I'm not talking nonsense, but thinking from the heart. Life is too short, why leave so many regrets, of course, I'm just talking, but I don't want to get any ideas for the prince. If you think my words are abrupt, I'm here to accompany you. ”

Wang Wei laughed and said: "It's a little interesting, your Wang Yuan not only writes poems well, but also has interesting ideas, I want to ask you to go to Zhongnan Mountain to chat for a few days." Maybe you're right, I don't have many years to live, so why should I regret myself? Your words, the old man will seriously consider it. ”

Li Shizhi frowned and said, "How can Maha Gong let him mess around like this?" ”

Wang Wei smiled but did not speak, his thoughts churning in his heart. Forty years ago, I met Xu Hezi, when a young man with a beautiful singing voice was the best in the world, and when a young talent was proud, the sky was dark about mutual love. But in the end, he had to fly apart because of Xu Hezi's background.

Xu Hezi is a member of the Qingguan, and Wang Wei is an official eunuch, and the status difference between the two is very large. When he learned about the mutual happiness between the two, Wang Wei's father was extremely annoyed. In the end, in the face of filial piety and love, Wang Wei had to choose filial piety and broke up with Xu Hezi in tears.

When his father was dying, he did not forget this incident, and his father, who knew Wang Wei's character, asked Wang Wei to swear in front of his sickbed that he would never associate with Xu Hezi and promise not to disgrace the family, and Wang Wei had to marry a wife and have children, and completely live according to the path his father wanted. And Xu Hezi is arrogant by nature, although he was born in the dust, he does not want to be reduced to a concubine, and he is angry about Wang Wei's sudden and ruthless departure, so he chooses to avoid Wang Wei, and this waste is that forty years have passed.

Xu Hezi suddenly appeared today, and Feng Jiuniang named her because Wang Wei was present, which shows that Xu Hezi has actually forgiven herself. Both of them were gray-haired, and Wang Wei didn't expect to renew his relationship with Xu Hezi at all, but Wang Yuan's words just now really moved Wang Wei. Wang Wei decided to follow the call of his heart, maybe he took this step and really made up for this big regret in his life.

It was nearly noon, the poetry meeting was going on lively, Feng Nineteen Niang saw the stitches and ordered someone to deliver the wine and food in time, and everyone was divided into several tables to eat some food. And Wang Yuan was naturally arranged by Li Shizhi to sit next to Li Shizhi as a sign of commendation.

Li Shizhi's eyebrows, eyes and beard were laughing, he finally felt that he had picked up the treasure, if he had doubts about Wang Yuan before, after today's test, Li Shizhi had no doubts at all. Although this Xiaofang Ding of Yong'an Fang is outstanding in literature, it is hard to believe, but this is the truth, maybe it is really Wenqu Xing who possessed this person and let himself discover this young man who is destined to be famous in Chang'an.

But in addition to the laughter and laughter, Li Shizhi's heart was also full of contradictions, and there was one thing that also made him very nerve-wracking, which was something that Li Shizhi had not considered before, that is, Wang Yuan's safety.
