Chapter 178: Biansai Poem
γBroadcastγPay attention to "Reading at the starting point", get the first-hand news of 515 red envelopes, and students who have not grabbed red envelopes after the Chinese New Year can show their skills this time.
"Today is a small year, and it is the day of our army's class. All Aiqing have worked hard this year, and I am deeply grateful, and today I specially set up a banquet in the Lin De Hall to spend the festival with all Aiqing. β
Tang Dynasty officials also had a holiday, with a seven-day long holiday starting from Chinese New Year's Eve. However, before that, the atmosphere of the New Year was already very heavy when the New Year was approaching, and the emperor would also feast his ministers to envelop their feelings.
Lin De Hall is the state banquet hall of Daming Palace, and it is also one of the most important palaces in Daming Palace, built in the reign of Emperor Gaozong Lin De, which is a place for emperor's banquets, informal receptions and entertainment. The emperor often held court banquets, watched music and dance performances, and met with envoys.
The ministers were also proud to be able to dine in the Lin De Hall.
Although it is only noon, the emperor's banquet is generally a whole day, including a lot of entertainment, playing the piano, dancing, and even playing football and horse racing.
"Thank you, Lord Long." All the ministers thanked him and followed the emperor to the direction of the Lin De Palace.
The palace is heavily guarded, and the general ministers can only come to the Hanyuan Hall and the Xuanzheng Palace, and they can enter the Zichen Hall after being summoned by the emperor. Zichen Hall is already the third palace gate, this is the place where the emperor rests and lives, and there are generally no foreign ministers coming in here, some are just palace maids, eunuchs and guards.
Only at this time did the ministers have the honor to follow the emperor to the palace and see the architectural furnishings in the inner palace. When you come to the Lin De Palace, you can see the Taiye Pond as far as the eye can see, and the scenery on the lake is unobstructed.
However, at this time, it was already a cold winter, and two days ago it was scared of heavy snow. There is already a thick layer of ice on the pond, and it is no longer possible to sail on a boat.
The building of the Lin De Hall is very grand, and in front of the hall is a huge square, and a wonderful polo game has been arranged at this time.
All the ministers sat down in front of the Lin De Hall with the emperor and enjoyed the polo together.
And Tang Xuanzong's sons also came. "The child sees his father."
At this time, Tang Xuanzong already had more than a dozen sons, but most of them were still very young. Some are even breastfeeding.
At this time, there were three people who came to see him, and the first one was probably in his twenties, and he should be the eldest son of Tang Xuanzong, but he had a huge scar on his face, which looked quite hideous.
The second is fourteen or fifteen years old, but his lips are red and his teeth are white, and he looks very handsome.
The third one was ten years old, and he was brought by the nurse.
"Okay, let's get flat. Li Shan, this is a few of my princes, you see if you are allowed to choose. Whose acolyte would you like to be? Tang Xuanzong pointed to the three princes in front of him and asked Li Shanxuan.
Li Shan looked at the three princes and said, "Your Majesty, if you let the ministers choose, the ministers will choose the three princes." β
"Oh, why is that? Let's hear it. Tang Xuanzong was very surprised, he didn't want to beat Li Shan, and he chose the youngest third.
However, Li Shan knows in his heart, and he still knows a lot about Tang history. He knew very well about the three princes in front of him.
The eldest is Tang Xuanzong's eldest son, Li Cong, who was scratched in the face by a wild beast during a hunt when he was young. also lost the opportunity to be the prince because of this, which is quite sad. Li Shan didn't choose him because he was already old. And he didn't do anything, he kept being idle.
As the eldest son, he didn't become the prince, and it was better to keep a low profile, which Li Cong did well, so Li Shan couldn't choose him. There is no future!
The second is the current prince Li Ying, but Li Shan did not choose him, although he is the prince, but Li Shan knows that Li Ying has no talent, and becoming a prince is just by virtue of his mother's favor. He is the second child again. But Li Tang's world has never been headed by the eldest son.
From Tang Taizong to Tang Xuanzong, the Li family has not said that the eldest son is the emperor, not to mention that he is still the second. And later, Li Ying was demoted to a concubine and died, Li Shan didn't want to have too much contact with him.
Although the third child is only ten years old, he is indeed Tang Suzong Li Heng, the next true emperor. Although it was after the Anshi Rebellion, Li Shan still instinctively chose the third child, after all, the first two were not very good, and if he chose one of the three, he could only choose him.
But Li Shan definitely can't say that: "The three princes are all dragons and phoenixes among people, and it is a great blessing for the minister to be fortunate to be able to accompany the prince to study, but the minister is shallow in learning, and he really doesn't dare to choose the first two princes." The third prince is still young, and the ministers should be competent. β
Tang Xuanzong smiled and pointed at Li Shandao: "You, you." Okay, since you have chosen so, then from now on you will be the attendant of the third prince Li Heng. β
Li Shan came to Li Heng and saluted, "The minister has seen the three princes. β
Although Li Heng is young, he also has a royal demeanor, and he politely replied: "Li Heng is a talented person, Li Heng has admired him for a long time, and he will ask the adults for more advice in the future." β
Li Shan is very useful, the little guy has a good eye!
"Your Majesty, the luncheon is ready, and you can eat." Gao Lishi came to Tang Xuanzong.
"Okay, all Aiqing will follow me into the hall. How about we talk while eating? β
The ministers thanked them again.
The hall is very large and can accommodate thousands of people to sit. A group of music girls in the hall sang and danced lightly in the middle, Tang Xuanzong waited for the ministers to sit down, and the ministers toasted to the emperor, and then toasted each other. They were eating and drinking, and they were enjoying the dance of the beautiful women.
After three rounds of drinking, Tang Xuanzong signaled to stop the music and dance, and said to Li Shan: "Li Aiqing, you can't have no poetry here." Hurry up and make a few poems for me and all the Aiqing to enjoy and appreciate. β
Now Li Shan's poems are well known. Although Li Shan's works are not many, they are all classics, and Li Shan rarely appears in front of people, so I want to listen to Li Shan's poems whenever I have the opportunity.
"Please ask the emperor to come up with a topic, and the minister will do his best."
"Aiqing must have seen the scenery of the desert when I went to Liangzhou this time, and I will make a few poems describing the scenery of Biansai, and let me and all Aiqing appreciate the customs of Biansai. Do it well, and if you do it well, you will be rewarded. β
This is a novelty, the ministers present, including the emperor, have actually never been to the side plug. Even the generals are all generals who lead the world's soldiers and horses in the capital, and are really generals who are stationed in the border area. A book like Li Jingxuan's can't come back once in the last few years, and it can't be in time for a banquet in this Lin De Palace. Even if they can catch up, those generals won't be able to make side poems.
Li Shan smiled secretly in his heart, this is not just coming with his mouth open, most of the Biansai poems in the Tang Dynasty were during the Tianbao period, like Wang Wei, Wang Zhilian and others. Although they are all born now, some of them have even become officials. But none of them have been to Biansai, and no one has written any poems here.
"The minister went to Liangzhou this time and was deeply touched, and he also made a few poems with a poetic personality, and he laughed when it was inappropriate." Li Shan was still modest as usual.
"Li Aiqing's poems must be good poems, don't be humble, hurry up and listen to it." Tang Xuanzong urged.
"The black clouds crush the city and want to destroy it, and the armor light opens to the sun.
The sound of horns filled the sky in the autumn colors. Stuffed with swallow fat and night purple.
Half a roll of red flags is in the water, and the frost is heavy and the cold is silent.
repay the king's will on the golden platform, and carry the jade dragon to die for the king. Li Shan thought about it for a long time and still chose this poem Li He's Yanmen Tai Shouxing, the scene described in this poem is very similar to the battle of Liangzhou he experienced.
As soon as this poem came out, the ministers in the palace all stopped their movements, and all eyes were on Li Shan.
Tang Xuanzong's face was longing, he looked straight into the distance, and said, "The black clouds are crushing the city and want to destroy it." The light of the armor opens to the sun. It is the scene when the Tibetan army invaded the border with our DPRK, Li Aiqing's poem is really a stroke of genius. I seem to have seen the scene of Aiqing leading our soldiers to fight bloodily in the border and sacrifice their lives to serve the country. Good poetry, good poetry! β
The ministers also praised one after another, and in ancient times, poetry may be the best form of conveying the situation of Biansai to the interior. There are no photographs, no videos, and the most vivid poems make it all feel like they are in front of you. Let people feel the hardships of the border and the loyal and patriotic feelings of the soldiers.
"Yet, make a few more songs for me to hear." Tang Xuanzong was obviously conquered by Li Shan's side poems, and was used to listening to too many lingering and sympathetic Jiangnan poems, and the impact of this majestic Saibei poem is indescribable.
Of course, Li Shan didn't shirk, and thought of another song: "
Qin Shi Mingyue Han Shi Guan. The Long March has not yet been returned.
But to make the dragon city fly will not teach Humadu Yin Mountain.
The horse newly crossed the white jade saddle, and the moonlight was cold on the battlefield.
The sound of the iron drum at the head of the city is still shaking, and the blood of the golden knife in the box has not dried up. "Wang Changling's two side poems, one is not enough, come to two in one.
"Good poetry, good poetry, come, all Aiqing and I have a drink. Aiqing still has it, I didn't expect Aiqing to be able to bring so many good poems with his party, it's really sweet. Tang Xuanzong laughed heartily.
"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately.
Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times. "Li Shan is another song.
Everyone was amazed and shared a glass of wine.
"The flowers and birds in Qinzhong have been answered, and the wind and sand outside the plug are still cold.
Listening to the willows folded at night, teaching people to remember Chang'an. β
Tang Xuanzong sighed again, it is not easy for the soldiers to stay away from their homes to protect their families and defend the country. He even asked the household department to increase the military salary of the border commanders, and talked about comfort.
"Aiqing's talent is really eye-opening. Say, what do you want me to reward you? Tang Xuanzong's golden mouth said that he would naturally not regret it.
Asking for rewards has always been the least good thing for Li Shan, and Li Shan has always had no concept of the values of the Tang Dynasty. Besides, if you want more, it seems useless, and if you want less, you feel that you have lost.
"The minister really can't think of any reward, as long as the emperor likes the minister's poems, Chen will be satisfied, and there is nothing else to ask for." So Li Shan should kick the ball back, as for what to reward, it's up to the emperor to say it yourself.
Tang Xuanzong pondered for a moment and said: "Okay, recently, the Turks have paid tribute to a large mink fur, which is said to be made of sable skin hunted from the extremely cold land in the north, and I will reward you." β
"Thank you, Lord Long." Li Shan was overjoyed.
The joy is not that Tang Xuanzong rewarded him with things, but that this mink is indeed a good thing. After all, it is a tribute, how can it be a mortal product. Not only is the texture soft and warm, but also very wide, which can wrap Li Shan tightly, in the Tang Dynasty, where there were no cotton clothes, this kind of thing was a must-have for going out in winter.
Li Shan's poem also became famous in one fell swoop, and most of the ministers of the DPRK and China had heard rumors about Li Shan's talent, but today he really saw it with his own eyes, and the effect was naturally different.
Since then, the poems of Biansai have become very popular, and all students must appreciate the style of Biansai, and if they can't make a decent Biansai poem during the imperial examination, they are embarrassed to say that they are talented.
The soldiers of the border fortress have received more respect and understanding, and they have also made more outstanding achievements in border defense. No one knows the name Li Shan, he is a scribe and does not know martial arts. But it has great popularity in the army. It also laid a solid foundation for Li Shan's unshakable dominance in the army in the future, which Li Shan did not expect.
That's for later.
