Chapter 52: Not admitting defeat first
"Oh? Tell me about it! Zhu Songqi said. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Your Highness!" Yanhua's lips curled, and the corners of her eyes smiled, "Yanhua has found five scholars, talented women, plus Yanhua, a total of six people, competing with you in the six arts of gentlemen, does Your Highness think it's okay?" ”
"You, you are so shameless to put forward such conditions!" Even Xie Zhen was angry at this woman's unreasonable conditions.
"Six?" Zhu Song raised his eyebrows and glanced at Huang Zicheng and them, but when he saw them showing nervousness, he knew that this shameless method was only something they could think of.
"Your Highness, you have flaunted your talent since the beginning, and now that Miss Yanhua has proposed a competition method, Your Highness will not disagree, right?"
Huang Zicheng came out to tease Zhu Song again.
"Good!" Zhu Song agreed, "But the specific competition needs to be decided by this king, and this competition has four wins in six games!" ”
"It's a deal!" Yanhua's beautiful eyes sparkled, "It's too late for today's poetry meeting, and you also need to prepare for the Six Arts Competition, Your Highness will be Yanhua to give a war book today, and you will have a competition tomorrow!" ”
"Miss Yanhua is thoughtful!"
Zhu Song nodded, but he began to laugh secretly in his heart Huang Zicheng and the others are still not ruthless enough, if it is him, he will strike while the iron is hot today and open it directly. .
There was nothing to say all night, but the news that Han Wang Zhu Song was going to compete with Miss Yanhua to test the six arts of the gentleman had already spread all over the sky that night, and even the northern camp of the Yangtze River received the news.
The next day, because today I had to compete with Yanhua and others, today's access to the poetry club became quite strict.
Han Wangfu was ready last night, and the original poetry garden was divided into two gardens: the inner garden and the outer garden.
Originally, the garden and the garden near the lake were used to receive celebrities and talented women, but after the garden was changed to an inner and outer garden, male and female guests were mixed together.
The only threshold is to limit the number of people who can enter the palace, and if you want to enter the outer garden, there is no other requirement except for your own talent.
As for the inner garden, it must be a top-notch figure among celebrities and scholars, celebrities and talented women, and it can be counted in the entire Ming Dynasty.
Of course, there are exceptions, such as the first- and second-rank officials of the dynasty, or people like Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Huixuan, who are close to Zhu Song.
There's no way, who calls people people from Han Wangfu, it's willful!
When Zhu Song walked to the gate of the outer garden, Huang Zicheng and the others had already arrived.
This night, the layout of the park has also changed.
In the inner garden, along the edge of the lake and close to the garden, a pergola for shading has been erected.
Under the pergola, there are fifty low tables, placed on a neat and cool marble floor, on which are incense burners, fruits and vegetables, snacks and nuts, and chilled fruit wine, and on one side of the table, that is, in the direction facing the lake, each with a cushion.
These seats are all arranged for celebrities and talented women, and the seats of the main owner, the first and second grade officials, Huang Zicheng and others have become under the flower shed.
After Zhu Song sat down, Bai Fu, who was in charge of hosting today, shouted: "Play music!" ”
The music started and collapsed, and it turned out to be the classical instrumental version of "Welcome March", but after the adaptation, it became countless times softer.
This bad taste, there is really no one!
As soon as he sat down, before he had time to be polite to the master he was doing, Yanhua led the three men and two women to stand up, and saluted Zhu Song: "Your Highness, these are the scholars and talented women selected by Yanhua. ”
Zhu Song glanced up, the five people in front of him really had bright spots, and the two women didn't mention it, they were born beautiful and had a very good temperament.
The three men, at first glance, were from a large family, and their clothes and temperament were extremely extraordinary.
Especially the scholar who was the leader, with a white face and a short beard, a long figure, and a decent cyan Confucian costume on his body also showed luxury.
Compared with the guy in front of him, the so-called rich and handsome in later generations are simply weak!
In Xia Wang Wenyu, Guo Xueru, Zhang Yu, Huang Ling'er, Song Zixuan...... I've seen Your Highness! ”
The five talented and beautiful women, bowing to Zhu Song and performing the scholarly salute, the attitude of one or two is somewhat arrogant, but think about it, when you think about it, you dare to come and compete with Zhu Song, who has been in a mess in the past two days, and you don't dare to compare without confidence.
"A few of them are exempt!" Zhu Song waved his hand at the five of them and said, "Yanhua, are you sure these are the people?" ”
"Yes!" Yanhua nodded and said: "Gentleman's Six Arts, which one to compare first, Your Highness, you can decide!" ”
The six arts of the gentleman refer to the rites, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics, of which the rites, music, calligraphy, and numbers are the literature, and the archery is the martial arts.
"Wait a minute!" Zhu Song waved his hand and said, "There are a total of six of the six arts of the gentleman, how do you evaluate whether you win or lose?" Isn't it just that you and I have our own opinions? ”
"Please rest assured Your Highness at this point, for the sake of today's comparison of the six arts, the lower officials specially invited all the officials above the Hanlin Academy."
Zhu Song's voice fell, and Fang Xiaoru stood up and said.
After all, Fang Xiaoru is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and he is in charge of the entire Hanlin Academy, but he invited a few colleagues to come out as judges, and he still has this face.
"Xia Guan has seen His Royal Highness King Han!" A dozen or so men in official robes stood up.
"Today, I'm going to trouble you!" Zhu Song politely saluted several officials of the Hanlin Academy, and said, "Then, let's start!" ”
"Okay, since this matter has been decided, let the rank in this garden be a witness, if the six arts of the gentleman are the ones who win the four arts, they will be the winners! Do you have any objections? ”
Among the people, Fang Xiaoru's status and reputation were the highest, so Fang Xiaoru stood up and asked everyone.
"No objection!"
Zhu Song, Yanhua and others shook their heads at the same time.
Fang Xiaoru discussed with the adults of the Hanlin Academy for a long time, and said slowly:
"There is a cloud in "Zhou Li Bao Shi": "Raising the son of the country with the Tao is the six arts of teaching: one is five rites, two is six music, three is five shots, four is five royals, five is six books, and six is nine numbers. Fortunately, let's follow the order of 'Five Classics and Six Arts'! ”
"The first comparison, Liyi!" Fang Xiaoru said.
Damn, Liyi!
As soon as Fang Xiaoru's words fell, Zhu Song was speechless in pain.
Although the six arts are six arts, they can also be divided into small arts and big arts, the big arts refer to rituals, music, archery, and royalty, and the small arts are books and numbers.
If you talk about music, shooting, royalty, and counting, it's easy to say, but etiquette and books, it's really hard to die Zhu Song.
The so-called etiquette, which is said to be etiquette, is similar to the moral education of later generations, and is divided into five rites: auspicious, fierce, guest, military, and Jiaye.
Zhu Song had never been to school at all in his previous life, and if he wanted to tell him about the professional ethics of the bodyguards, he would not be able to kill him with any moral education.
Let's talk about books, books are actually calligraphy, such as: writing, literacy, composition or something, and they are divided into six books: pictographic, signifying, knowing, forming, transcribing, and borrowing.
Zhu Song will also be able to recognize traditional Chinese characters, let him write words?? We're still embarrassed!
"No, we have to find a way to avoid these two arts!" Zhu Song's brain began to run at high speed, but on the surface it was silent.
"Your Highness, do you have any objections to the first art than the ritual art?" Seeing that Zhu Song didn't speak for a long time, Fang Xiaoru couldn't help but ask.
"Huh?"
Zhu Song pretended to wake up and said: "This king is thinking, since you dare to come over and compete with this king to try the six arts, you must already know the "Stone Record" made by this king the day before yesterday!" ”
Speaking of this, Zhu Song deliberately put on a high-minded appearance and said:
"That's it, this king doesn't take advantage of you, among the six arts, 'ritual art' and 'calligraphy', this king automatically gives up, so that you win two games first, if you can beat any two of the other four arts, even if you win, what do you think?"
"Your Highness looks down on me?" Zhu Song's words ignited the anger of the other five except Yanhua.
"I don't look down on you, it's just that this king doesn't want to take advantage of you!" Zhu Song pursed his lips and said, "Lord Fang, what do you think?" ”
Fang Xiaoru can't wait for Zhu Song to lose, now this arrogant and arrogant King Han, the two arts automatically admit defeat, why don't you hurry up?
"Your Highness is righteous, and you are willing to give up the competition between the two arts!" Fang Xiaoru smiled and smiled happily: "In this case, let's start the competition with the 'music art' in the back!" ”
