Chapter 233: Became Lao Tzu
In the living room of the Li Mansion, Ye Yu and Li Dao were chatting all over the world. Although both of them are smiling, they have a sense of vigilance in their hearts.
From time to time, the other party implied two ridiculous words for some reason, and he had to find a way to take it, and then wait for the opportunity to fight back.
All in all, in short, although the old and the young are talking and laughing in the living room, in the implication of the words, they are competing with each other.
It is said that Jiang is still old and spicy, but Ye Yu is also one of the clever hands when it comes to witty counterattacks, and he is not inferior to Li Dao in the slightest.
"Hehe, Lord Ye's knowledge is really extensive, it really opened the old man's eyes!"
Regarding Li Dao's appreciation, Ye Yu also responded with a smile: "General Li is overrated, as the saying goes, useless is a scholar, no matter how knowledgeable he is, it is a talent who meets a soldier and can't explain it reasonably......"
"Uh, hehe, Lord Ye is really funny when he talks!"
Li Dao heard Ye Yu's words, which was complaining that he was powerful in Yizhou, and he did not take the envoy of Qincha in his eyes because he controlled the military and political affairs of the Dingyuan Army.
Li Dao accepted this calmly, but he was a little unconvinced if he was a person who didn't understand literature and ink.
So after the laughter, Li Dao took a sip of the teacup, and then said with a smile: "On weekdays, the old man also studies some poetry couplets, and today there is Lord Ye here, you might as well give the old man some advice!" ”
"General Li, I don't think it's necessary, it's difficult for the younger generation to learn from the shallow ink to get into the hall of elegance, how dare you say anything about the word of guidance?"
"Hey, Master Ye is too modest, don't say it's my Great Song Dynasty, it's the countries of Fanbang, and who doesn't know that Master Ye is a famous person in the world, so Master Ye doesn't have to postpone it!"
Good fellow, don't shout the adults and call out the bachelor, this is obviously deliberately difficult.
But since Ye Yu is here today, he wants to meet this Li Dao for a while, how can he be timid here?
So he pretended to hesitate for a moment, and then he gave up humbly: "Since General Li has this Yaxing, then the junior will be disrespectful......
"Well, good! Then please listen to Lord Ye, the old man's uplink is: Hades has not ordered the book of life and death, where does this son come from? ”
As soon as this Shanglian was said, it made Ye Yu look slightly stunned, and this Shanglian was obviously mocking him Ye Yu. said that he Ye Yu was not only a kid, but also a little ghost who died early.
Before the king of Hades had sketched out the book of life and death, this little ghost had already come to report, so he would ask: Where did this son come from?
The intention of this is not only to scold him for being a short-lived imp who died early, but also to ask a very clever question, implying that he will go back wherever he came from.
Ye Yu came to visit today, and Li Dao suddenly came to such an uplink, which was nothing more than to drive away the slack.
Li Dao, who finished the Shanglian, glanced at Ma Qianli with a deep meaning, and then looked at Ye Yu with a sarcastic expression, waiting for Ye Yu to respond.
Ye Yu secretly scolded this old fox in his heart, it was really not simple, and he used couplets to scold people so skillfully, but the intention was very novel and ingenious.
Then he touched his chin lightly, and after a little contemplation, he couldn't help laughing.
Li Dao didn't know what he meant, so he wondered: "Why is Lord Ye laughing, could it be that there is already a lower link?" ”
"Don't hide it from General Li, the younger generation is so happy when they think of this couplet......"
"Oh? Please also ask Lord Ye to teach! ”
"The Jade Emperor heard the cruel sound and kicked the fang out of the world! What does General Lee think of this couplet? Ye Yu asked softly at Li Dao with a smile on his face.
"Uh, that's right, Lord Ye deserves to be a famous man in the world......"
The corners of Li Dao's eyes twitched slightly, but he had to greet him with a smile, this look was extremely interesting in Ye Yu's eyes.
Gou Yansheng, which means to linger, is not only an allusion to Li Dao's lingering breath, but also a substitute for the elderly and frail old man.
The ingenuity of these three words lies in the fact that they can directly communicate with Shanglian, and directly transform the context of scolding Ye Yu from a young man to an old man.
The two of them played a game, one old and one young, except for him, a young man, then the rest could only be Li Dao, an old man!
This is equivalent to borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, and using Li Dao's satirical sentences to satirize the past. Fang, beast, this is undoubtedly secretly scolding Li Dao for being a beast.
In addition to irony, there is actually a layer of practical significance in this couplet.
Li Dao is a high-ranking and powerful military secretary who is one of the six ministries, but why didn't he stay in the DPRK and serve in Yizhou for many years?
In the final analysis, it is the current emperor Zhao Yan's distrust of Li Dao.
Although he is in charge of the military and political power of a place, if the officials who are released are not guarding the border gates, it is a kind of disgrace.
Li Dao is obviously not liked by Zhao Yan, so he has not returned to Beijing to take up his post all these years.
And Ye Yu's next link, 'The Jade Emperor heard the cruelty and kicked the fang out of the world! In fact, Zhao Yan is also compared to the Jade Emperor, and he Li Dao is the old ghost who survived and kicked him out of the power center of the imperial court.
All of you are smart people, and Li Dao is even more deeply touched, so the irony of this link can be described as extremely explicit.
Ma Qianli on the side hurriedly came out to relieve the siege, first saluted Ye Yu, and then said respectfully: "Student Ma Qianli, I have heard that the talent of the bachelor is outstanding, and the student here has a connection, and I also ask Master Ye to advise!" ”
"You're Ma Qianli?" As soon as Ye Yu heard these three words, he immediately remembered Ma Qianli, the apprentice of Yinghong who was in the woods.
Ma Qianli was very puzzled by Ye Yu's demeanor, so he wondered: "Bachelor Ye knows the student?" ”
"Uh, hehe, I've long heard that General Li has a powerful strategist named Ma Qianli, so this official has only heard of his name......"
"Master Ye has passed the award, the student is just a staff master in the Li Mansion, how dare he call him a strategist!"
After Ma Qianli was humble, he went straight to the point: "The students are here: rice, sorghum, wheat, millet, which of these mongrels is Mr.?" ”
Burst!
As soon as this couplet came out, Ye Yu, who had just drunk a sip of tea, suddenly squirted out.
It's not that he was stumped by this couplet, but because not long ago he was in Shaoxing Yipinxiang Teahouse, and he used this couplet to relieve Cao Xueying.
At that time, there was a scholar-like son in the teahouse, and the upper couplets were: red, green, blue, blue and purple, whose family mounted the paper;
And in order to relieve Cao Xueying, the next link is: Rice sorghum wheat millet, which mongrel should I be?
Now, this couplet, after a slight modification of this horse Qianli, has changed from the original five grains to six kinds of grains.
Although it is not too difficult, the lower link of his own pair is now being taken out as the upper joint examination himself, which is somewhat awkward.
Besides, this Ma Qianli is a student, and the word "gentleman" is obviously aimed at him, which is more appropriate than the artistic conception of the teahouse at the beginning.
Ye Yu glanced at Ma Qianli with a slight frown, secretly thinking that this person was so good that he would use his lower link, and now he was embarrassed by him.
With the spear of the other and the shield of the other, this is clearly making Ye Yu contradict himself.
Li Dao lightly twisted his beard on the side, and praised Ma Qianli's uplink: "Okay, this couplet is excellent, although we are officials in the officialdom, we can't forget the foundation of the court." ”
"The old man once listened to the hadith before the holy car, and His Majesty often said that agriculture is the foundation of a thousand years. Lord Ye, you and I are both officials of the imperial court, and we should have something to do with the harvest season of these grains! ”
Listening to Li Dao's high-minded talk, Ye Yu was full of slander in his heart, and said in his heart, can we not be so brazen?
Immediately, Ye Yu picked up the teacup and said with a disdainful expression: "Poetry and books are easy to spring and autumn, many scriptures, why bother asking Lao Tzu!" ”
Belch......
Rice sorghum, wheat, millet millet, these mongrels, which one is Mr.?
Poetry and books are easy to spring and autumn, many scriptures, why bother to ask Lao Tzu?
The neatness of the upper and lower lines is not bad at all, and the last 'Lao Tzu' of the lower couplet directly covers up the irony of the upper couplet.
Don't care if you're a hybrid or not, even if you're a hybrid, we're still Lao Tzu!
The young and frivolous dared to call themselves old, which made Li Dao and Ma Qianli in the living room blush.
The oldest is Li Dao, who is now nearly sixty years old, and even the youngest is about fifty years old.
In this kind of situation surrounded by old people, Ye Yu calls himself Lao Tzu, which can be said to be extremely rampant and has no dignity!
Syllable!
Li Dao's beard trembled slightly, and he said angrily in a stiff tone: "The couplet poems are entertainment, Lord Ye's move is too much!" ”
"Oh? What does General Li mean by this, the juniors have always been respectful and polite......"
"Humph! Although Lord Ye is said to be extremely talented, he is called Lao Tzu in front of me and other older people, isn't this a violation of ethics? ”
When Ye Yu heard this, he laughed heartily.
"Why is Master Ye laughing?" Ma Qianli's face turned a little red at the moment, but he still asked calmly.
"The two of you misunderstood what Ye meant, this so-called Lao Tzu is the ancestor of Taoism, authored, his real name is Li Er, also known as Lao Dan, and the world respects him as Lao Tzu!"
Ye Yu said this, but he was very interested and said: "It is said that Lao Tzu should be the ancestor of General Li......"
"Uh!!"
Li Dao was choked by Ye Yu's words and was speechless for a long time, but he didn't expect that Ye Yu not only avoided questioning with a pun, but climbed up the pole and became the ancestor of his Li family.
are all surnamed Li, if Li Er is an ancestor, it is nothing, after all, Li Er's fame has not been inferior to Confucius since the Tang Dynasty.
Because the Tang Dynasty was the world of the Li family, the Li family has always regarded itself as the descendant of Li Er (Lao Tzu, Lao Dan, Taishang Laojun).
Therefore, Ye Yu had to say that Li Er was the ancestor of his Li Dao, and he Li Dao did not have any opinions.
But Ye Yu's words are very suspicious of taking advantage.
'Lao Tzu should be the ancestor of General Li', this sentence is a pun with deep intentions, on the surface it means that this Li Er is the ancestor of Li Dao, but in fact, it can also be said that Ye Yu calls himself Lao Tzu and has become the ancestor of the Li Dao family!
Good guy, Li Dao originally planned to question Ye Yu in order to suppress Ye Yu's arrogance. Now it is not a loss to steal chickens and rice, and it is directly from the relationship between father and son, and it has become the replacement of grandchildren......
