Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Four-Step Poem
Zilong didn't speak, just bowed his hand and made a gesture of please.
Li Hu saw that Zilong seemed to be confident, and he had the intention to make things difficult for him, so he smiled lightly.
"On that day, Cao Zijian made a poem in seven steps, with bean romance, it can be described as wonderful, today's Zilong brother's talent, everyone can see, it is better to be within ten steps, with Su as the theme, how about chanting a poem?"
When everyone heard it, they secretly said that Li Hu was really excessive, and there were still some articles to do on the topic of Su, but poems are made by emotion, in such an atmosphere, within ten steps, how can you mobilize emotions and chant poems?
Even if it can be done, but all of you are national players in the literary world, if it is far-fetched, you can't help but laugh and be generous, if you don't want to be made fun of, this short ten steps, how to refine words and sentences?
Listening to everyone's whispered discussions, Li Hu was triumphant and looked at Zilong with a smile.
Zijuan was also suspicious, of course she understood that Cao Zijian's seven-step poem was a blend of situations, forced out of the eternal swan song, even if Zilong was a genius, he was caught off guard, I am afraid it would be difficult to become a poem.
Looking at Zilong worriedly, he secretly nodded at him, and Zijuan whispered: "Brother Zilong, if you don't want to pay attention to him, you can refuse, such an rude request, even if you refuse, others have nothing to say." ”
Zilong looked around and found that almost everyone was looking at him, the secret path was already in the boat, since he was forced to come here, it was better to have a good time.
"Ten Steps ......"
Zilong hesitated slightly, but heard Li Hu smile and said: "If Brother Zilong has any difficulties, fifteen steps will do!" ”
Zilong smiled, raised his head suddenly, and said, "Ten steps seems to be too much, four steps is enough!" ”
At this time, everyone was shocked, this young descendant was too conceited, and he even got an axe, and even intensified, delusionally trying to surpass the sages, but to see how much ability you have.
Regardless of everyone's discussion and dissatisfied expressions, Zilong lifted his robe, took a step, and said loudly: "Plant a grain of millet in spring." ”
When everyone heard Zilong start to chant poetry, they raised their ears and listened carefully, who knew that it was such a simple few words, without any novelty, without depth, it was just vernacular.
Li Hu sneered disdainfully, and everyone despised him, but Zilong's face did not change, and he took another step and said, "Ten thousand seeds are harvested in autumn." ”
As soon as the sentence came out, he heard a few sneers, mixed with shaking his head and sighing, Zilong peeked at Yang Gu and found that he actually closed his eyes and stared, but he did not change color.
Zilong didn't hesitate, ignored the ridicule and ridicule, and took the third step: "There is no idle land in the four seas. ”
After reading this sentence, the ridicule was even worse, and even Zijuan couldn't help but clench his pink fists, and said in his heart, why did Brother Zilong lose his standard so much today?
Although Yang Gu still closed his eyes at this time, he couldn't help but show some disappointment, and Li Hu smiled even more.
When Zilong saw this, he didn't care, and took the fourth step steadily, his eyes closed, as if he was infinitely sad and disappointed, and finally muttered: "The farmer is still starving to death!" ”
As soon as Yang Gu heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he stared at Zilong with a shining light, Li Hu couldn't help but smile on his face when he heard this.
This last sentence......
Zijuan was of course overjoyed, looked at Zilong in a daze, and then glanced at everyone, and found that everyone was also in deep thought, and some even shook their heads and chanted these four sentences repeatedly.
Zijuan involuntarily clapped his hands, and after a moment of silence, there was earth-shattering applause from the Fuyue Tower, mixed with all kinds of praise from everyone, making Zilong open his eyes leisurely.
Zilong thanked everyone, slowly walked down the second floor, and came to the middle of everyone, accepting everyone's praise.
The applause gradually dissipated, Li Hu's face was as pale as earth, but he heard Yanggu say: "Brother Zilong is really talented, one step at a time, four steps into poetry, it seems that he is famous in history, and he is better than Cao Zijian!" ”
Yang Gu is the best of all literati, and he is quite admired, and his speech naturally attracts everyone's attention.
Yang Gu didn't care about the eyes of others, just looked at Zilong fixedly: "The layout of the little brother is extremely fine, and the first three sentences are spread out, which seems to be plain and even a little bleak, but as soon as the fourth sentence comes out, Fang knows the brother's intentions, and the first three sentences have become a contrast at this time, and the artistic conception of the fourth sentence can be vividly displayed." ”
Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads when they heard it, but Yang Gu seemed to have something to say.
"And the most admirable thing about the little brother is the selection of materials, which shows that the little brother has the world in his chest, but it is a pity that someone in Yang is not allowed to be in the court, otherwise he will lead the way for his brother, and truly serve the country and the people, and it is better to be poor than Hao's head and the empty economy!"
No one expected that Yanggu would have such a high opinion of a young man with no name, and he couldn't help but be impressed by Zilong, and stepped forward to introduce himself in order to be able to make friends with Zilong.
Li Hu looked at Zilong and reversed his previous low-key attitude, and muttered indignantly: "What a cunning fox, he actually pretended to be low-key, it turned out that he was still hiding behind him, and the depth of the city was really hateful!" ”
Zijuan looked at Li Hu and said with a smile: "Even if Li Gongzi came up with the question, I guess Gongzi already has a good work in his heart, why don't you let everyone evaluate it?" ”
As soon as everyone heard this, they shifted their eyes and looked at Li Hu, Li Hu was embarrassed under everyone's sight, although he also had works, but he knew that it was difficult to surpass Zilong.
But in front of everyone, Zijuan was so aggressive, it was really difficult for him to deal with, and when he was hesitating, he saw Zilong take two steps forward and look at him with a smile, Li Hu's heart couldn't help but tremble.
Isn't he going to fall into the well too?
Li Hu was worried in his heart, looking at Zilong's smile, he felt that it was a kind of evil smile.
Zilong patted Li Hu on the shoulder, still maintaining a bright smile.
"Writing poems should be felt and sent, Brother Li Hu had a whim, and gave Zilong a question to teach, Zilong is already stretched, don't do to others what you don't want, how can Zilong be difficult?"
As soon as Zilong's words came out, everyone couldn't help but nod their heads in approval, Li Hu lowered his head in shame, and there was already admiration in his heart, and Zijuan's eyes emitted a strange brilliance.
Yanggu nodded, suddenly walked to Zilong's side, and said sincerely: "Brother Zilong's high wind and bright festival, the old man admires, I don't know if Brother Zilong is willing to go with the old man, the old man fights with the old face, and he also wants to protect the brother's ......."
Before Yang Gu could finish speaking, Zilong had already shook his head and pushed back.
"Yang senior, the juniors have heard of your name for a long time, and the juniors have a word, I don't know if it's appropriate to say it?" 、
Yang Gu smiled: "Brother don't have to be embarrassed, all of you are friends in the literary world, how can you buy the old man's face, if you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to talk about it!" ”
Zilong saw that Yanggu trusted himself so much and admired Yanggu as a person, and his heart rushed to the top of his skull.
"In today's troubled times, the court does not want to sweep away the evils, but instead intensifies and extravagance, causing the people to live in poverty, and the predecessors are not also deeply affected? Although Zilong is a cheap life, he doesn't want to sacrifice in vain, so he ......"
After listening to Zilong's words, everyone's expressions were gloomy, and among the people who attended the meeting, there were many people in the court, and more people saw the demonic atmosphere getting worse, and they were disheartened and lived in seclusion.
Yang Gu was deposed because of this, and now he is concentrating on literature and dispeling his sorrows, of course, he is the person who has the most experience of this.
Zijuan saw that the atmosphere of everyone was solemn, and said with a smile: "Today's poetry meeting, just to talk about poetry, don't talk about national affairs, the little girl is willing to present a new song, and please comment on it!" ”
As he spoke, he took the guqin, and after a song, everyone gradually let go of their worries.
But Yanggu and Li Hu were still angry, pulled Zilong to the corner, and talked privately.
"Brother Zilong, your great talent Yang is very admired, your insights are also very thorough, and your character is quite in line with Yang's mind, but your choice is ......"
Of course, Zilong knows that although Yanggu has been swept away, he is still worried about the rivers and lakes in the depths, but the so-called choice must also be made in a timely manner, and his Northern Wei Dynasty is about to become history.
In the future, the overlord of the Northland will appear in a few years, I don't know what kind of expression this old gentleman will have if he sees the chaos in the world?
"Mr. Yang, the general trend of the world is not the fault of one person, nor can it be controlled by one person, Zilong is an ordinary man, that is, it is difficult to save the people of the world from fire and water, and it is difficult to deal with those intrigues in the court, please understand!"
After speaking, he caught a glimpse of Yang Gu's disillusioned and disappointed expression, faintly revealing a faint sadness, Zilong couldn't help but feel a little unbearable, and then looked at these so-called bachelors who didn't know that the country was going to die, they were still drunk and dreaming of death, and they couldn't help but be even more upset about the old stubbornness like Yang Gu.
was feeling in his arms, but he didn't expect Li Hu to be even more excited than Yang Gu, and he spoke sharply, so that Zilong had to re-examine this unruly swinger.
