"Ladies and gentlemen, please listen to the third pair," the maid Xiaohuan said to the talented sons, "the third pair is: the green trees by the pool, the red rain by the trees, and the rain falling by the stream." ”

The third couplet is a thimble couplet, thimble couplet, also known as the bead couplet, the couplet of the previous clause foot, as the beginning of the next clause, so that the two adjacent clauses, end to end, in one go. For example, "the goat goes up the mountain, and the mountain touches the goat's horn; The buffalo goes into the water, and the water does not have the buffalo waist. "Thimble link, according to the thimble unit is divided into word thimble, word thimble, etc., according to the position of the thimble in the couplet, can be divided into the thimble in the sentence, the thimble between the sentences and the thimble in the sentence.

After Xiaohuan said the third couplet, the scholars thought eagerly, lest this couplet be preempted again.

"There are, green trees by the pool, red rain by the trees, rain by the stream; Green mountains outside the building, white clouds outside the mountains, clouds flying outside the sky" Dongfang Pass out of the next link,

"Dongfang Guan is worthy of being the young genius of the Dongfang family, the first to make the next couplet, and admire it in the next," a scholar patted his ass and said,

The first two questions were steadily pressed by Zhang Baiyi, if someone said this at another time, Dongfang Guan might be proud and modest, but at this time he was a little shameless, Dongfang Guan had a gloomy face and did not politely talk to the scholar,

"The bright moon under the window, the breeze under the moon, the wind is all over the world," Jiang Zhe next to Dongfang Gongzi made the third couplet,

"Flowers in the garden, beautiful people in flowers, people in paintings." Nan Zhuyu also made the following link under the reminder of Young Master Zhang

Min Shuiwang also patted his thigh and said: "Green trees by the pool, red rain by the trees, rain falling on the stream, green trees by the pool, green grass by the trees, grass even the sky." ”，

Although Min Shuiwang has plagiarism elements, it can barely be regarded as passing,

Zhang Baiyi Zhang Da Young Master is still eating peanuts in his own way, and does not participate in the ranks of the third pair.

After a while, when no one came out of the couplet, Xiaohuan announced: "There are four sons in this couplet, namely: Dongfang Guan Dongfang of the Xiling Dongfang family, Jiang Zhejiang of the Suzhou Jiang family, Nanzhu Yu Nan, the third young master of the Nan family, and Minshui Wang Min. ”

……

Plum blossoms and orchids, bamboo, and chrysanthemums are called the "Four Gentlemen". It is also known as the "three friends of the cold year" together with pine and bamboo. With its noble, strong and humble character, Mei gives people the motivation to work hard. In the bitter cold, plum blossoms are the first to bloom, and spring is the only one in the world. The second level set by Miss Su Jiu'er is Yongmei, the poems are not limited, and you can play to your heart's content. "It was the female Xiaohuan who announced the start of the second level after reading the list of the first level cleared.

"Plum blossom is the first of the top ten famous flowers, Su Jiu'er is the Oiran of Drunken Flower Building, is she using plum blossoms as a metaphor for herself?" Zhang Baiyi muttered in a low voice,

"Good boy, when did your literary style become so good, it seems that Master Xu has some ability, and he actually trained you, a boy who doesn't learn and has no skills, to look like a reader." Nan Zhuyu hooked one arm around Young Master Zhang's neck and said,

Zhang Baiyi glanced at Nan Zhuyu speechlessly,

"Look at what I'm doing, think about it quickly!" Nan Zhuyu urged,

"Think? What do you think? Zhang Baiyi was confused,

"What else can I think, of course, I want to pass the second level of poetry, and then get Su Jiu'er drunk, and then hug the beauty, and then ......" Nan Zhuyu said his evil lewd laughter,

"In the ice and snow forest, different peaches and plums are mixed with fragrant dust; Suddenly, the fragrance of the night was scattered. A young man got up and chanted, "In Xia Chen Geng, Xiling people's clan, this song "White Plum" is ugly,"

Although this poem is not a good work, it has a special meaning,

The meaning of this poem is that the white plum grows in the woods with ice and snow, and does not mix with the peach blossoms and plum blossoms, and falls into the dust of the world. Suddenly, the fresh fragrance of this night emanated, and it was dispersed as a new spring in heaven and earth.

Chen even wrote about the noble ambition of plum blossoms and not being in the same stream as the world. In the specific expression, the poem contrasts the ordinary peach and plum with the white plum in the ice and snow forest, so as to bring out the elegance and elegance of the plum blossom.

Chen Gengyong sat back in his seat after finishing,

As soon as Chen Geng sat down, Dongfang Guan got up and chanted, "Nanxiangzi is silent. The iron edge is nearly five more. The incense lamp is dim and unstable, and it is desolate. Only the frost blooms with the moonlight. It should be cold at night. Annoyed that plum blossoms can't sleep. I read the plum blossom and miss me, and I care about it. I saw the ice full of jade bottles. ”

Dongfang Guan's poem will Su Jiu'er whisper plum blossoms, Dongfang Guan's poems are written to the cold earth, sleepless nights, Dongfang Guan does not say that he feels troubled, but puts himself in the shoes of plum blossoms, saying that it should be troubled and can't sleep. The latter sentence pointed out that not only was he thinking about Su Jiu'er, but Su Jiu'er was also thinking of him. Dongfang Guan is a little self-inflicted.

"Good, good poetry," the house slaves of Dongfang Guan applauded their masters at an inopportune time,

Although the poem is a good poem, "I read the plum blossom and miss me" has caused public outrage, why do you say that Su Jiuer is thinking of you,

"Ten thousand trees are cold and colorless, and the south branch has unique flowers. Where the fragrance smells of flowing water, the shadow falls into the savage's house. Jiang Zhe got up at this time and sang a song "Early Plum"

"Okay,"

"Although this poem does not have the word plum, it writes the early and good poem of plum blossoms,"

A group of scholars patted the sycophants of Jiang Zhe in Suzhou,

Jiang Zhe was not shocked and did not show ecstasy, and sat back quietly after groaning.

"I have a song," Nan Zhuyu got up at this time and said, ""Plum Blossom" is sparse and thin, and the small calyx is pearlescent. One flower changes suddenly, and all flowers are fragrant. If you want to spread the spring message, you are not afraid of being buried in the snow. The jade flute is resting three lanes, and Dongjun is advocating. ”

The meaning of this poem is: the branches of the sparse plum tree are slanted horizontally, white as jade, strong and powerful; The calyx is dotted with snow droplets, reflecting a sparkling brilliance. One of the plum blossoms bloomed first, and the fragrant flowers all fell behind the plum blossoms. Plum blossoms want to pass on the message of the arrival of spring, even if the snow crushes the ice! The jade flute should no longer play the song of "Plum Blossom Falling" repeatedly, because spring is dominating the world.

Nan Zhuyu grasped the characteristics of the plum blossom being the first to open, and wrote the plum blossom is not afraid of setbacks and blows, and dares to be the first in the world.

Later, it was written that the harsh winter could not stop the arrival of spring, and how could the deep snow bury the fragrant smell of plum blossoms? It celebrates the unyielding spirit of plum blossoms.

"Good poetry,"

"Who is this person, how can he be so stylish?"

"This person is Nan Zhuyu, the third son of the Xiling Nan family,"

"No wonder there is such a talent, it turns out to be a member of the Nan family"

"Nan Gongzi is really good at learning, I admire it"

"Where, where, fluke, just fluke." Nan Zhuyu said with a smug and modest face,

Zhang Baiyi also looked at Nan Zhuyu in surprise,

"What do you see, didn't I tell you that my son is good at poetry, so I'm also from the Nan family." Nanzhu Yusao said.

After Nan Zhuyu sat down,

A short and fat scholar got up and said: "In Xia Deng Songyuan, this poem "Yongmei Quatrain", the valley is more northern, and it is late every year. Gao Biao Yiyun Jun knows whether it is when the ice and snow are accumulated. ”

"Early Plum" welcomes spring and starts early, and I am not suspicious of the cold alone. After the fear of falling flowers, no one cares to look at it. After Deng Songyuan finished chanting, another scholar got up and said,

""Linjiang Immortal Tanmei" is old and lazy, and Aimei is still around Jiangcun. One branch breaks the Yuxi spring first. More flowerless attitude, all with the spirit of snow.

The rest of the empty mountain meal is beautiful, and the sentence is fresh for the canal. Bamboo roots and flowing water bring streams and clouds. I don't remember when I'm drunk, and the moon is dusk on the way back. ”

……

……

Drunken Flower Building is worthy of being a place of fireworks, there are many people who are coquettish here, a scholar just sat down after chanting poems, and another scholar got up and recited poems,

At this time, the drunken flower building could not hear the sound of Yingyu Yan'er, the sound of laughter, and some were just the sound of the talented man reciting poetry.

"Full Court Fang" small pavilion Tibetan spring, idle windows lock day, painting hall infinitely deep and secluded. The incense is burned out, and the curtain hook is under the shadow of the sun. It's better to plant Jiangmei by hand, so why bother to climb the building near the water. No one arrived, it was lonely, He Xun was in Yangzhou.

Never, knowing the rhyme wins, embarrassing the rain, and not tolerant of the wind. Who's more transverse flute, blowing deep sorrow. Don't hate the incense and reduce the snow, you must believe in the Tao and sweep the traces. It is difficult to say, the good night is light, and the shadow is still romantic. ”

The talented people chanted for nearly a pillar of incense, and finally after the last scholar finished chanting, the drunken flower building quieted down,

Su Jiu'er found Zhang Baiyi eating snacks and drinking tea on the seat through the screen window on the second floor, and did not chant a poem.

Su Jiu'er smiled slyly and said: "Zhang Baiyi Zhang Gongzi shines in the first level, and in the second level, Yongmei Zhang Gongzi must also have eye-opening poems in his chest, why don't you chant it and let me wait to read the masterpiece!" ”
