Chapter 293: The Literati
Liu Xin told Su Jia his thoughts, Su Jia still smiled, and said to Liu Xin with a mysterious face: "Master, why should you worry, Tang poems and Song words are gone, then we can get a Chinese poem and Chinese words, isn't this a truth, as for novels such as the four famous novels, we can also change the way of thinking, and "sinicize" them, even if "Dream of Red Mansions" is a novel with obvious characteristics of the times and is not easy to "sinicize", we can also say that it is an alternate dynasty, After all, the fiction of a certain point is still very popular.

Liu Xin patted his head, he really fell into the misunderstanding of thinking again, too entangled in those things in the future, even if he changed the future, he could bring the things of the future to the Han Dynasty in advance, just like black potatoes and hybrid rice, which were the products of more than a thousand years later, didn't they sleep in the Han Dynasty now?
Therefore, Liu Xin felt that he could take the titles of "Father of Chinese Poetry" and "Ancestor of Chinese Words" for his own use.
After all, a generation of heroes like Cao Cao, even if they are hacked in other aspects, they are still widely recognized by later generations in terms of literary attainments.
Even a scumbag like Guo Moruo, didn't he rely on a good literary level to become a "literary hero"?
And for the five thousand years of Chinese heroes, poetry and poetry are undoubtedly a plus, so Liu Xin feels that he can also develop in this direction.
Thinking of this, Liu Xin couldn't wait to ask Su Jia: "Su Jia, then how do you think I should promote my literary name?" After all, the emergence and development of Tang poetry and Song lyrics are closely related to the background of the times, and now the Han Dynasty is still dominated by songs, even if I want to promote Tang poetry and Song lyrics, I am afraid that it will be smeared by some so-called literati. ”
It is an eternal truth that literati are inferior to each other, after all, there is a good saying, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts.
The generals can fight on the battlefield, and the warriors can compete in the ring, and it is easy to distinguish the highs and lows, after all, there will always be one person who falls first, and the one who falls is the loser, and the other person is the winner.
Just like the first military general in the Three Kingdoms period, he is recognized as Lu Bu, even if Zhang Fei angrily scolded Lu Bu for being a slave with three surnames, he didn't dare to take Lu Bu lightly, as for other well-known generals of the Three Kingdoms who had met Lu Bu, they all had to admit that Lu Bu was the first military general in the Three Kingdoms period, and there was no suspense.
And the widely circulated sentence "one Lu, two Zhao, three Dianwei, four passes, five horses, six Zhang Fei, seven yellows, eight summers, and nine Jiang Wei" has basically become a recognized list of combat power in the Three Kingdoms period, which shows that it is still very easy to rank out and be recognized by the public in the ranking of "Wu".
But take the Three Kingdoms period as an example, there are also many talented scribes, whether it is Wolong Kong Ming or Feng Xiao Pang Tong, Eastern Wu Zhou Gongjin or Lu Xun who burned the camp, Xun Yu Xun Yu of Xun Family Shuanglong, or the genius Cao Chong who died early, or the conspirator Sima Yi, the poisoner Jia Wenhe, the person who can compete for the position of the first wise man in the Three Kingdoms carefully calculates, it is nearly two hands.
But in the ranking of the Three Kingdoms "Wen" list, there has never been a list that can really be widely recognized, every scribe of the Three Kingdoms has the hope of hitting the first place, but compared with other competitors, there are shortcomings, in short, in the post bar or forum of later generations, the ranking of scribes will always be the most controversial.
And this is just a debate between later generations for the predecessors, in the current Han Dynasty, Liu Xin can be sure that as long as he dares to promote Tang poetry and Song lyrics, he will definitely stand up a bunch of supporters of Han Fu to criticize himself, and these supporters of Han Fu happen to be the guides of public opinion in the current Han Dynasty, Liu Xin is not easy to deal with them.
After all, literati kill people without seeing blood, and that pen alone can make Liu Xin jealous.
Just like when Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, even if Dong Zhuo had heavy troops and killed countless people, Dong Zhuo had great respect for scribes like Wang Yun, especially those Confucians who pointed at Dong Zhuo's face and scolded, Dong Zhuo could only make some verbal threats, and did not dare to act easily, so he could only take some ordinary officials out of anger.
Just when the two brothers of the Yuan family escaped from Luoyang, Dong Zhuo directly killed the Yuan family, which shows that for Dong Zhuo, the status of literati is much higher than that of a family like the Yuan family.
Therefore, Liu Xin felt that he still didn't want to provoke these literati casually.
Of course, Su Jia agrees with this very much, the ancient literati were not so easy to mess with, even if Liu Xin became the emperor, if he wanted to promote a novel literary form such as Tang poetry and Song Ci, he had to get the recognition and support of some literati, so Liu Xin wanted to promote Tang poetry and Song Ci, and he had a long way to go.
Therefore, Su Jia gave her own advice, "Master, you also know the character of the Han literati, they extremely respect the form of literature of Gefu, if you rashly promote Tang poetry and Song lyrics, you will inevitably be counterattacked by the Han literati, so this matter must be urgent, we must come step by step, step by step; First of all, we must seek supporters, preferably the most famous literati like Cai Yong, Kong Rong, and Ma Riyan, as long as one of them supports the scene for the master, then ordinary literati will not dare to make a mistake, among which I recommend Kong Rong the most. “
Kong Rong, a writer at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a native of Qufu in Lu State, one of the seven sons of Jian'an, the twentieth grandson of Confucius, the son of Kong Zhou, the most famous allusion is that Kong Rong made pears, and successively served as the general of Hu Benzhonglang, Yilang, Beihai and other positions, and finally because Cao Cao was jealous, he was killed, and because Cao Cao killed Kong Rong with a very heavy crime, even until the Western Jin Dynasty when Chen Shou wrote the "Three Kingdoms", he did not dare to set up a biography for Kong Rong, becoming one of the most famous people missing in the "Three Kingdoms".
The reason why Su Jia recommended Kong Rong is because as a descendant of Confucius, he has an excellent reputation in the Han Dynasty, and the most important thing is that Kong Rong was born in 153 AD, although he is only 28 years old now, but Kong Rong, who became famous at a young age, has become an out-and-out representative of Confucianism in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and is quite famous in the circle of literati in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Therefore, Liu Xin, who is of a similar age, should be able to communicate well with Kong Rong, and Kong Rong, who is still not in his prime, should be more receptive to new literary forms such as Tang poetry and Song poetry than other older Han celebrities.
Therefore, Su Jia's first suggestion for the promotion of Tang poetry and Song Ci is to let Liu Xin find an opportunity to catch Kong Rong's line, if Kong Rong can support Liu Xin's scene, then the criticism of Tang poetry and Song Ci can be reduced by more than half.
When Liu Xin heard this, he couldn't help but nodded, but said a little depressedly: "Su Jia, your suggestion is very good, but if I'm not mistaken, Kong Rong is basically an official in his hometown of Qufu, except for the Yellow Turban Uprising, he was recommended as a servant of the imperial history before entering Luoyang as an official for a period of time, and then he ran back to his hometown to pretend to recuperate, and then he was recruited as a subordinate of Sikong Mansion. He went to Beihai County, Qingzhou, where the Yellow Turban Army was at its peak, so we shouldn't have time to get in touch with Kong Rong now. ”
