Chapter 17: Seven Steps to Poetry
Li Shan didn't expect Su Jinxi to know that this song was composed by him, but he immediately thought that although Li Shan invited the singer of the poetry music workshop, but to put it bluntly, this music workshop is just a government-run Qinglou, and it is normal for them to have some contact with each other before. Now that they are all named and pointed on their faces, Li Shan can't hide anymore, he stood up and said: "It's really commendable that Miss Jinxi can make this kind of change on the basis of the original song, as the so-called song is born from the heart, I wrote this song to miss my father, so there is a lot of longing in the song, Miss Jinxi seems to have a sense of sadness and helplessness in this song, presumably Miss Jinxi wants to express the feelings of life in the world, I don't know if it's right to guess or not." ”
Su Jinxi listened to Li Shan's words, and was stunned for a long time, and the old bustard next to her called her before she came back to her senses, and gave Li Shan a salute and said: "Li Shangongzi is really knowledgeable, talented, and the little girl has been taught." Then she thought for a moment before saying: "Later, I will choose a few poems that I like, and the poet can participate in the second topic competition. ”
The literati of the Tang Dynasty were already elegant, and it was normal for them to gather for recreation and sing together, so this topic was also very appropriate, and everyone here agreed, especially Li Chengwei. Why? Because people sing well, people must have strengths, this Li Chengwei is not very good, he was born with a good voice, and he is famous in the circle of good singing, after listening to Su Jinxi's title, he thought that Su Jinxi was interesting to him, so he deliberately made him win with such a topic, and he couldn't close his mouth happily at the moment, and agreed again and again.
On the other hand, Sun Helian couldn't sit still like an ant on a hot pot, and said to Li Shan: "Brother Li, you have to help me, you said that I can ride a horse and hunt or something, but I really can't come to this singing." Li Shan hadn't heard Sun Helian sing, but he had heard Sun Ping mention that Sun Helian's songs could exorcise ghosts, and the degree of unpleasantness can be imagined. But there is no way to help him, Li Shan can't sing for him.
Li Shan patted Sun Helian on the shoulder and said: "Brother Sun, I really can't help this, but I don't think it should matter if you sing well or badly, this old bustard said before, it is determined according to Miss Jinxi's preferences, so all the decisions are on Su Jinxi, as long as she wants to find you, it is a matter of one sentence, on the contrary, if she doesn't want to, even if you sing flowers, it's useless." ”
Sun Helian still felt uneasy, and said: "Brother Li, why don't you sing a song in a while, we have all seen that Li Chengwei sings well, I am afraid that Miss Jinxi will be deceived by him." Li Shan was stunned and said: "I'm meddling, it's not appropriate, and besides, I can't help you win." Sun Helian said: "I can't care so much, even if I can't win, if Brother Li wins, it's better than cheapening Li Chengwei's grandson." Seeing that Li Shan still wanted to refuse, Sun Helian said: "Brother Li, don't worry, I, Sun Helian, still know the severity, although I covet Miss Jinxi, but I won't have a conflict with Brother Li for a woman, if Miss Jinxi chooses Brother Li, I will also be happy." ”
After Li Shan saw Su Jinxi's appearance, it must be false to say that he was not tempted, but as the so-called friend's wife cannot be bullied, Li Shan naturally stayed away, and now that Sun Helian said so, Li Shan did not shirk and said, "Okay, then I will do my best." ”
At this time, Su Jinxi also picked out the list of candidates for the second question, Li Chengwei and Sun Helian were of course among them, and there were a few rich sons with quite good faces, Li Chengwei couldn't wait to show it, and quickly got up and said: "Since the number of people has been decided, then I'll start first." Just as he was about to start singing, Li Shan interrupted: "Slow, Miss Jinxi, I was drunk just now and accidentally missed the first question, can I give me the next chance to participate in the second question?" Li Chengwei saw that Li Shan actually participated blatantly, so he naturally couldn't agree, and said angrily at the moment: "What are you, when Miss Jinxi played the pipa before, she made trouble, and now she wants to make trouble, come and drive him out." ”
Sun Helian immediately counterattacked: "It's not up to you whether Brother Li can participate or not, it depends on what Miss Jinxi means." Su Jinxi also spoke: "Li Shangongzi made a song Jinxi likes very much, but the first question is not participated in the second question, which will inevitably make other sons feel unfair." It's not as good as this, Jinxi also heard that Li Shangongzi is good at poetry, so I will make a poem by Li Shangongzi on a random topic, and if you do a good job, you can participate in the second question, which will also convince other sons. What do you think? Li Shan was naturally not afraid, and Li Chengwei was not good at Bosu Jinxi's face, so he had to keep quiet.
Li Shan smiled: "Please ask Miss Jinxi to ask the question." Su Jinxi said mischievously: "Since Li Shangongzi was drunk just now, let's make a poem with wine as the theme." Li Shan's eyes rolled and he thought of a poem, but naturally he couldn't say it so directly, if he blurted it out, it wouldn't scare them to death, but he pretended to be forced to do it, so he said: "Just now, Miss Jinxi had a stick of incense for a limited time, and it naturally wouldn't take me so long to make a poem." During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Zhi once became a poem in seven steps, and today I will also follow Cao Zijian's example, how to become a poem in seven steps. ”
Li Shan began to pace as he spoke, the pace was very slow, and everyone was counting Li Shan's steps with bated breath, one step, two steps...... It was only after the sixth step was completed that Li Shan opened his mouth and said: "
A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date.
Raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the shadow becomes a trio.
The moon does not drink, and the shadow disciples follow me.
Temporarily accompanied by the moon will be shadowed, and the joy must be spring.
I sing and wander, and I dance in a mess.
When they wake up, they mingle together, and when they get drunk, they disperse.
Eternal knot ruthless travel, phase Miao Yunhan. ”
Once again, the poems of the great god Li Bai conquered everyone. Everyone present was amazed that this Li Shan could really become a poem in seven steps, and his talent was really better than Cao Zijian. Su Jinxi also exclaimed: "Li Shangongzi is really a genius, Jinxi admires it very much, and naturally has no objections to participating in the second question." Li Chengwei looked at Li Shan hatefully, and said to Du Ziteng: "This kid really has some skills, and you don't complain if you lose to him." has repeatedly done good things to me, and sooner or later I will let him know how good I am. ”
Su Jinxi made a gesture of invitation to Li Chengwei and said, "Lord Li, the second round of questions, please, Jinxi listens." Li Chengwei glanced at Li Shan demonstratively, cleared his throat and began to sing, not to mention that Li Chengwei really has two brushes, singing Cao Cao's "Short Song Xing" to wine as a song, life geometry. Li Chengwei sang and the audience applauded, but Sun Helian twisted like a big girl getting on a sedan chair at this time, originally he and Li Chengwei were working against each other, but this singing was really not his strong point, so he could only sing a song indiscriminately. Li Shanshan covered his ears when he heard this, and the other people couldn't help but laugh.
Li Shan thought to himself, brother, it's really not that I don't help you, you have to fight for some anger yourself. This Li Chengwei really sings well, and I have to do my best to suppress him. Li Shan naturally can't sing ancient songs, but with the precedent of "When Will the Bright Moon Exist" before, Li Shan feels that Chinese-style pop music still has a certain competitiveness in ancient times.
Li Shan also stood up and cleared his throat and said: "The previous songs were all the same, I want to sing a song I made myself, I don't know if it's okay?" Su Jinxi was very happy and said: "Li Shangongzi's "Water Tune Song Head" is already a masterpiece, but I didn't expect today's son to have a new work, Jinxi was fortunate to hear it first, and she was naturally very happy." Li Shan smiled slightly, brewed a little, and opened his mouth to sing: "Your tears, weak and wounded, the miserable white moon bends, hooking the past ......" A song by Jay Chou's "Chrysanthemum Terrace" was born in the Tang Dynasty, but the copyright was shamelessly stolen by Li Shan.
At the end of the song, the whole audience was intoxicated by the singing, and Li Shan suddenly had a feeling of holding a concert, and this feeling of leading the trend of the generation was really cool. What's more, several other people felt that they were not as good as Li Shan and actually abstained, so tonight's winners were destined to be produced from Li Shan, Li Chengwei and Sun Helian. When everyone was looking forward to this, when Su Jinxi announced the results, Su Jinxi got up and confessed to everyone, and turned around and went back to the third floor, leaving everyone here confused. The old bustard hurriedly came out and explained: "Ladies and gentlemen, we Jinxi already have someone we like, but first, our Jinxi is thin-skinned, how embarrassing is it to let her announce her name in public, and secondly, I don't want other sons to feel embarrassed." So please eat and drink here with peace of mind, and I will send a maid to invite that son later. ”
Sun Helian was very anxious when he heard this, and asked Li Shandao: "Brother Li, who do you say this Jinxi girl will choose?" Li Shan had a hunch that he might be going to win the lottery, after all, there were only three of them in the end, and Li Shan could see from Su Jinxi's actions that she didn't mean anything to that Li Chengwei, but Sun He didn't even seem to be very likely, so if he chose one of the three, two were eliminated, and he was the only one. Li Shan patted Sun Helian on the shoulder and said: "Brother, this kind of thing has to be looked at a little bit, as the so-called world has no fragrant grass, why bother to love a flower." You can't give up a big forest for a tree, don't you see that there are forests all around? ”
Sun Helian nodded thoughtfully and said, "It seems that I still have to learn from Brother Li, Brother Li has chased Miss Liu Ruyan in just a few days, and I spent so much money for Miss Jinxi to no avail." Li Shan continued to teach: "Brother Sun, you are wrong, it is really not okay to chase girls without money, but money is not the most important thing, you can't expect money to help you settle all problems." You have to let girls discover your charm, you have to play your strengths and avoid weaknesses, your strengths can naturally attract girls, and you don't want to provoke if you are not attracted to you, it's just in vain. Sun Helian said frustratedly: "What Brother Li said is that Miss Jinxi likes poetry and songs, and it seems to me that there is no chance." ”
Li Shan was about to say more, when a maid came over next to him and said to Li Shan: "Li Gongzi, Miss Jinxi is invited." "Come on, don't say anything, the explanation is a cover-up. Sun Helian also clenched his fists helplessly and said: "Brother Li, go ahead, since Miss Jinxi chose you, brother, I naturally have nothing to say." Congratulations on spending time with the beautiful lady tonight. Several others also congratulated Li Shan. However, Li Shan was a little embarrassed, because he had no money, and the money from selling horses today was almost spent, and he was almost penniless now.
So Li Shan called Sun Helian aside and borrowed twenty taels from Sun Helian, looking at Sun Helian's resentful eyes and unwillingly took out his money bag, Li Shan also felt a little sorry for this brother. After saying goodbye to a few people, Li Shan followed the maid to the third floor, and Sun Helian went to the third floor happily.
