Chapter 14 The Pastoral Poet Meng Haoran
As soon as Wang Wan saw someone coming, he quickly got up and greeted him: "Brother Haoran! I didn't expect you to come. The day before yesterday, I heard that Brother Haoran was in poor health, so he didn't disturb his brother, which was rude. β
Du Fu said softly next to Liu Hao: "He is Meng Haoran, a pastoral poet in my Tang Dynasty. When I came to Luoyang a few years ago, it is said that I went to Chang'an to seek officials, but I don't know the specifics. β
Liu Hao's mouth was wide open, this person was actually the great poet Meng Haoran, how many gods did this Luoyang City nest?
Everyone bowed to Meng Haoran, and Meng Haoran accepted it calmly. No way, people have this strength and fame.
After the greetings, Meng Haoran pulled Wang Wan and asked, "Did the Liu Hao you said come over today?" β
When Liu Hao heard this, he quickly got up and bowed his hand: "Boy Liu Hao Liu Zhicai, I have seen Mr. Haoran." β
Meng Haoran walked in front of Liu Hao and couldn't help but admire: "What a handsome little Langjun." Your song "Qingyu Case" is wonderful. Meng asked himself if he could write such a poem. The afterlife is terrifying! β
Liu Hao hurriedly said: "The boy's graffiti." Let the gentleman see the smile! Mr. is fond of the landscape and is chic. Poetry and literary talent, the kid is not as good as Mr. in case. β
Meng Haoran shook his head and said: "Zhicai, didn't you tell you that self-humility is a good thing, but it's not good to be too humble." β
Liu Hao hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Mr. taught a lesson." β
Meng Haoran patted Liu Hao's shoulder: "Zhicai's words are already a family of their own." Qingchen also put a lot of effort into calligraphy, and the two of you have time to learn more. β
Liu Hao and Yan Zhenqing arched their hands at the same time: "Dare not obey your fate!" β
After sitting down, Meng Haoran asked Liu Hao curiously: "The kind of font you wrote, the gesture is very mysterious, Meng has practiced many times recently, but there is no way, so that Weide is teased for a while." Since you're here today, you might as well give me a demonstration so that you can open your eyes. β
The crowd responded.
Liu Hao laid out the paper, picked up the pen and wrote a few words, and then said: "This font is called thin gold font." Mainly rely on the use of wrist strength. You can't practice it, mainly because the writing of this font is very different from other fonts. Then Liu Hao changed a piece of paper and wrote the song "Sorrow for the New Words" in thin gold font.
Without waiting for the ink to dry, Meng Haoran snatched it away: "Thank you for the gift." β
Liu Hao couldn't cry or laugh, how could he be so cheeky when he was an elder?
Seeing that Meng Haoran got it, the others stopped doing it and clamored for it.
Liu Hao was helpless and continued to spread out the paper. This time, Liu Hao used Yan Ti:
The lights of the third watch and the fifth watch of the chicken are when the boy is studying.
The black hair does not know how to study early, and the white head regrets studying late.
After writing it, he smiled, this can be regarded as playing with an ax in front of Lu Ban and playing with a big knife in front of Guan Gong.
Everyone looked at Liu Hao's words blankly, and then turned their faces to look at Yan Zhenqing.
Du Fu squatted next to Liu Hao: "Hey, isn't this a poem by Brother Qingchen?" The word is too. β
Yan Zhenqing walked in front of Liu Hao and solemnly gave a deep salute: "Zhicai and virtuous brother have entered the realm of calligraphy together!" Brother is not as good as you. This poem was written for my brother and brother, and I don't want to read it again today, but I don't feel nostalgic. β
This character was naturally accepted by Yan Zhenqing, and no one fought for other people's poems and other people's words this time.
At this time, several people were clamoring to learn calligraphy from Liu Hao, Liu Hao shook his head and said to them: "If you want to learn calligraphy, you must first lay a solid foundation." If you are interested, you can learn regular script from Brother Qingchen. This is not to say that the thin gold script is much better than the regular script, but the regular script is the foundation of all fonts. If the foundation is not laid, no matter how clever the teacher is, it will be in vain. β
Meng Haoran nodded thoughtfully: "Zhicai is right, just like the way of being an official, you must start from a junior official first, and then improve step by step." β
Liu Hao wondered, how did Meng Haoran turn to being an official? History said that Meng Haoran wanted to be an official, but he couldn't ask for an official several times. Just now Du Fu also said that he had just returned from Chang'an to seek an official position, and it seems that he failed again this time. It's really hard to figure out how a good great poet wants to get into that cage. I don't know if Meng Haoran would have left so many works to pass on if he entered the officialdom at a young age.
Just thinking about it, Cen Shen, the little Zhengtai, squeezed next to Liu Hao: "Brother Hao, can you write me a pair of words?" The younger brother's family has been training the younger brother to be a civil official, but the younger brother wants to practice martial arts and go into battle to kill the enemy. β
Most of the officials of the Tang Dynasty, especially high-ranking officials, were good at martial arts, and they truly achieved the level of "going out and entering the phase". The civil officials in the frontier basically put on armor and carried weapons to kill the enemy in the event of a rebellion, which is also the reason why Datang is tough on the outside world.
Liu Hao looked at Cen Shen and wrote:
Why don't the men take Wu Hook and collect the Turks to be Heizhou.
Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis.
After writing it, Cen Shen couldn't understand: "Brother Hao, where is this Heizhou?" β
Meng Haoran and the others were also puzzled.
Liu Hao smiled: "Do you know where the capital of the Turks is?" β
Everyone shook their heads.
Liu Hao stood up and said in a loud voice: "The capital of the Turks, which is what they call Nanting, is in Black Sand City. My generation of men, when the knife is on the horse, go straight to the Black Sand City, and let it change from the capital of the Turks to the capital of my Tang Dynasty. Would you like to? β
During the Tang Dynasty, the military generals were not as clear as those in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and many important ministers in the Tang Dynasty had the experience of leading the army abroad. So after listening to Liu Hao's words, everyone at this party shouted: "Open up the territory!" Build an immortal feat! β
Meng Haoran's expression was agitated: "That Turk was originally a dog's ear in front of my Tang Dynasty, and he was insidious and cunning to deceive the trust of the saints. Now my generation of men should go into battle to kill the enemy, clear the border troubles, and return me to the Tang Frontier! β
As the sun set, the gathering came to a successful conclusion.
Upstairs in heaven and earth, Liu Hao rubbed his sore wrist and sighed.
Ling'er looked at Liu Hao distressedly: "Just send one or two pairs of words, why do you send so much?" β
Baguio squatted next to Liu Hao and pinched Liu Hao's wrist: "It's not that Shi Taixi, Liu Lang is in conflict with the Shi family this time to make friends with people in Japan, these Luoyang talents all have extraordinary family backgrounds, and they can't say that they have time to ask for others." β
Liu Hao raised his hand and pinched Baguio's chin: "It's not good that women are too smart." β
Baguio smiled, looked up and asked Liu Hao: "Liu Lang, Shi Jialang is willing to exchange a BMW for Ling'er's sister, why are you so angry?" β
Liu Hao gritted his teeth and said, "My woman, how can I exchange it for an animal?" If he just swaps them for the whole family, I won't give it. Women need to be hurt and petted, not to change for a thousand miles. As a man, you can earn whatever you want, and you are committed to the corners of a woman's skirt, so it is better to go to the palace to be a father-in-law. β
Ling'er and Baguio couldn't help but laugh.
Baguio continued: "The literati all regard the sending of their concubines or the exchange of concubines as a testimony of a good relationship. Liu Lang's move is not like what a literati should be. β
Liu Hao raised his hand and patted Baguio's buttocks: "I am a businessman, not a literati." That bad habit will never work with me. Sending women back and forth like goods, why didn't he send his mother? I am sick to see people like that. is obviously born by a woman, but he doesn't treat women as human beings at all. Like those barbarians on the steppe, they treat women as goods and trophies, and those studies are in the belly of dogs? β
Baguio and Ling'er looked at Liu Hao blankly, they didn't expect Liu Hao to be so angry about this matter.
Baguio gently hugged Liu Hao's waist and said softly: "The concubine has to meet Liu Lang in this life, which is really God's greatest favor to the slave family." β
Ling'er crouched in Liu Hao's arms and said with a smile: "God's greatest favor to my sister is not the young master, but the figure. Hee-heeγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
Baguio was reluctant immediately, and he and Ling'er twisted on the couch to tickle each other.
Two days later, at Liu Hao's house, Du Fu and Yan Zhenqing came to visit, followed by Cen Shen and two literati they had seen by the river last time.
Du Fu pulled Liu Hao to the side of the two, pointed to the dark-looking young man among them and introduced: "This is the eldest man of the Chen family, named Chen Shimei. His family had a caravan between Luoyang and the grasslands, and if he attacked the Turks in the future, the Chen family's caravan might be useful. β
Chen Shimei? Liu Hao couldn't help laughing, this product is actually called Chen Shimei. looks black and strong, compared with that negative man Chen Shimei, he is really a heaven and an underground.
Before Liu Hao could be polite, the person next to Chen Shimei glanced at Chen Shimei and said, "What can his caravan do?" Don't look at Brother Shimei, who was also clamoring to go into battle to kill the enemy that day, just listen to it, you can't take it seriously. He was so afraid of death, how could he go into battle to kill the enemyγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
Before he finished speaking, Chen Shimei glared at him: "Eleven Lang of the Xiao family, don't you dare to go into battle to kill the enemy?" So you dare? You're as thin as a chicken, I'm afraid you can't even lift a knife, right? β
Xiao Shiyi Lang? Liu Hao endured a stomachache. This person looks like a bamboo pole, and he is afraid that he will be blown away if the wind is strong, so he is actually called Xiao Shiyilang.
Liu Hao bowed his hand to the two of them: "Brother Shimei, Brother Xiao, the younger brother is polite." β
The two waved their hands at the same time and said, "My own brother, why be polite." β
Yan Zhenqing took a sip of tea and said, "Zhicai, I am waiting to come here today, mainly because it is a matter of the historian. That Shi Taixi is used to being arrogant, and the Shi family relies on Luoyang Ling's in-law to bully people in Luoyang City. suffered such a big loss this time, I think the historian will not give up, and Zhicai still plans early. β
Liu Hao nodded: "It's impossible to reconcile, now it's up to the other party to make a move." β
Xiao Shiyi Lang smiled: "I won't make a move recently, then Shi Taixi's body is almost cold after being sent home, and it is not cured yet, it is said that he coughed up a lot of blood after waking up." Zhicai is too ruthless. β
Liu Hao smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter what the fight was at the beginning, what annoyed me was that he actually wanted to exchange livestock for my woman, and I was already very restrained if I didn't kill him!" β
After Chen Shimei and Xiao Shiyi Lang left, Yan Zhenqing smiled mysteriously: "Zhicai, do you know the identities of these two?" β
