Chapter 110: The Night Banquet at Qujiangchi (13. ENDS) ENDS
"I've heard the name of the horse for a long time, and when I see it today, it really deserves its reputation." Guo Pinyi bowed his hand and saluted.
Guo Pinyi was followed by five or six students from Guozijian, and when they saw the horses, they all bowed their hands, and Chen Wenxuan next to him also came out to say hello to Xu Chen.
This group of people came over suddenly, they must not have pretended to be a fart, Xu Chen glanced at everyone, frowned, and looked indifferent, others looked at it and thought it was contempt, in fact, Xu Chen was curious because he didn't know these people, his main theme tonight is manic, but that is also a scorer, this one in front of him is obviously higher than the kid just now, besides, even mania has a limit, when he sees people, he pretends to be forced, and when he comes up, he punches and kicks, which is no different from a mad dog.
Miss Su also recognizes this Guo Pinyi, as a talented woman and a beautiful woman, Su Luo is naturally the object of pursuit of literati scholars, and this Guo Dacai is obviously no exception, but this Miss Su just doesn't look down on him, which makes Guo Pinyi quite unconvinced, where to find a handsome and famous Lang Jun like me!
Today, Su Luo is a female companion and a man, so Guo Pinyi patronized the horse and didn't pay much attention to the small girl in front of him. At this moment, Su Zhong looked at Xu Chen's reaction as if he didn't know much about Guo Dacai, so he whispered to Xu Chen: "This is Guo Pinyi, who is known as the first genius of the country. ”
This was said in a low voice, but everyone could hear it, and I don't know if this Su Chong was deliberate, Guo Pinyi looked at this posture, it was more embarrassing, I am so famous in my feelings, you don't know who I am? Even if you don't know who I am, you always know the clothes of the prisoners, right? I always know that there is a first genius with a white fan in the national prison, right?
"I don't know what Brother Guo has to say?" Xu Chen was more direct and asked.
These people walked in with Chen Wenxuan, they must not know what tricks to do, this lonely poet lost face at his new book launch conference, is this looking for someone to retaliate? Thinking of Guo Pinyi's identity, it is possible.
"The horse laughed, don't dare to advise, but just passed by here, Brother Chen recognized you, so I came to visit, I often heard Brother Chen mention the poems of the horse, how to know, I came to ask for advice." Guo Pin discussed.
At this time, the literati scholars in the corridor saw that there were many people standing in this pavilion, and the students of the Guozi Prison could see from their clothes, since some people could recognize Guo Pinyi, and some people recognized the famous Chen Wenxuan, and after a while, many people stopped to watch, and there were two great talents gathered here at the same time and so many Guozi prisoners, and there would definitely be a lively look.
Lively is nothing more than making good poems, although jealous, but good poems are good poems, if you can taste it, it is naturally great.
The seats in the pavilion are obviously not enough, Zi'er alone can be regarded as occupying a row of seats, of course, scholars and literati can't Meng Lang, it is rude to sit with a woman, so the people of this country and Chen Wenxuan are standing in the pavilion, and passers-by can't help but wonder, what is the identity of the person who is sitting and talking to Guo Caizi, even if it is an official status, a scholar should stand up when talking to you, right?
Xu Chen obviously didn't plan to do this, he originally had this idea, but as soon as he heard "ask for advice", he knew that it was indeed not good, and the word "asking for advice" can be understood as learning together, doing research together, or picking quarrels and provoking trouble, obviously this Guo Caizi belongs to the latter.
The first talent of Guozijian singled out the first place in the national martial arts competition? It's also quite interesting, but Xu Chen is not in the mood to talk nonsense with him, tonight's goal has been achieved, and he was originally going to leave, and he didn't have the leisure to ask you, the first talent, for advice.
He said: "There are no poems, but I just get a few poems, and I can't make them true." ”
Guo Pinyi obviously paid more attention to this concubine's "occasional poems", if this concubine was really talented, there would not be only two poems in the world, besides, it was really made by the concubine, why didn't the dignitaries in the capital know much about it? It's obviously greasy, and it is estimated that this colt was bought from, but he didn't dare to show his heart too much.
In Chen Wenxuan's opinion, this sentence is obviously modest and full of pretending momentum, Chen Wenxuan went to him to pick up the poems because he listened to those poems, this guy is still pretending to be modest here, but for the poems of the horse is certain, this Guo Pinyi is self-righteous, and he also secretly mocked himself, that is, when he saw the horse, he was surprised why the horse appeared here, and then thought that Guo Pinyi seemed to have a lot of complaints about the horse, so he called him away.
Chen Wenxuan knows Guo Pinyi's character, he has always been proud, and he is even more powerful than himself, Liu Wenyuan and himself were defeated in the hands of this concubine, I believe that this Guo Pinyi must take this opportunity to prove that his talent is better than the two of them, Chen Wenxuan also followed Guo Pinyi's mind when he did this.
Sure enough, Guo Pinyi went straight to the topic, to "ask for advice", and now there are many people who are watching the play, if you can compare this horse on such an occasion, it can explain a lot of problems, and even if this horse can write poems, I believe it is only an average level, and the advice is naturally to fight poetry, and fighting poetry is generally played on the spot, not as simple as his few poems copied from nowhere.
What's more, there are so many literati witnesses here, and they will naturally have to evaluate it later, Guo Dacai of course believes in his poetic talent, and he clearly doesn't take this horse in his eyes.
"The horse is too modest, and it is an occasional verse, but it is so brilliant. This time, I wanted to ask for advice. Tonight, in front of everyone, how about a colt try it with me in this pavilion? Guo Pin discussed.
The people outside the pavilion were in an uproar, this Guo Pinyi's identity was naturally known, and the meaning of his words was obviously to fight poetry.
Fighting poetry, it is a common occurrence in literati gatherings, but in this kind of high-level imperial banquet, it is rare, and Guo Pin is talking about a horse, obviously the object of his poetry is the "horse" sitting in front of him, everyone cast curious eyes at Xu Chen, and someone in the crowd was surprised: "That horse is Xu Chen Xu Wenxian!" ”
The literati here also know a little bit about this name, because the sensational beating incident is related to the legend of this horse, and the rhyme of the horse in the green building is widely spread in the taverns, teahouses, and brothels in the capital, and the people of the lower class still know about this horse who has moved the capital.
Something like this gradually escalates into a fiction, and if you are not careful, you can write a legend, so that the pony is so unreal that in the end people gradually stop mentioning this pig's foot, and this story alone. One of the main reasons is that people are still reluctant to believe in the truth of the story.
The beating incident that just happened tonight made this legendary horse appear in everyone's minds, and Chen Wenxuan was also here to surprise everyone, could this horse really have the talent of "poetry is farther than Liu Wenxuan, only past Chen Wenxuan"?
In addition, Guo Pinyi picked out and fought poetry with this person, which confirmed the above statement, you must know that the possibility of fighting poetry in general occurs among talented people of the same level, and a famous literati like Guo Pinyi will not provoke an ordinary young man, either he values this person very much, or he wants to use this person's fame to make himself popular at this banquet.
Su Chong and Su Luo were very surprised when they heard Guo Pinyi's words, but they didn't expect that the purpose of this Guo Caizi coming to this pavilion was to fight poetry with the horse, and Guo Pinyi has always been quite famous, and his teacher regarded him as the treasure of the master, and this person has always been proud of his talent and knowledge, and disdains to fight poetry with others.
Xu Chen was obviously very disgusted with the first genius of the country in front of him, this person's purpose was too obvious, and he didn't say a word, but he wanted to fight poetry. Dou Shi Xu Chen also understands that once one party initiates Dou Shi, and the other party must accept the challenge, this is the rule.
But at the moment, there is no effort, it is estimated that the royal banquet is almost over, this will be just right, Li Shuang'er will see a few elders less because of time, which saves effort, but this Guo Pinyi is a sideways step, but he still has to fight poetry, and he really has no time to pay attention to him, but it is not very suitable to leave now.
"I have important business today, can I change the day?" Xu Chen said.
Xu Chen's sentence was obviously afraid of making a fool of himself in the eyes of everyone, but on such an occasion, he said such a thing, why was it not cowardice?
Guo Pinyi smiled and said in his heart that you can't go, and he won't let you go today, and said: "It's just the right time, it's just fun, is it that the horse is afraid that it can't compare to me?" ”
Just when Guo Pinyi was very arrogant and Xu Chen was very anxious to leave, the song "Autumn Eve" had already landed in the Qulou, and it was spreading from the corridor from the staircase to oral transmission.
Guo Pinyi's words aroused everyone's strong curiosity, this is aggressive, the purpose is already very clear, but there is some impulse to watch the play, for this horse, there are many rumors, good and bad are overwhelming, but the truth is difficult to distinguish, now you can test the level of the horse.
Chen Wenxuan believes in Xu Chen's strength very much, this Guo Pinyi is a guy with low eyes, usually some people praise him, but he feels talented. A genius can be called a talent, but this is the first talent, but it's hard to say.
Guo Pinyi saw Xu Chen's solemn face, thinking that it was a cowardly move, so he continued: "Then I'll come first, everyone, it's ugly!" He didn't give Xu Chen the slightest excuse to leave.
The pen and paper have already been prepared, and others have brought it to Guo Pinyi, but Xu Chen is amazed that this guy is so unsparing, as if he has a deep hatred, he wants to try it with himself, but now he can't go, so he can only let this Guo Dacai play.
In the eyes of everyone, this is indeed a massacre, this Guo Pinyi is obviously prepared, this colt is obviously a little cowardly, is this still worth comparing?
The surroundings were quiet, because Guo Dacai was looking out from the railing at this moment, brewing emotions, preparing to compose poems, and Su Zhong and Su Luo, who were still in the pavilion at this moment, saw Xu Chen's indifferent appearance, and couldn't help but admire a little, presumably this horse was thinking about poetry.
Xu Chen didn't think about any verses, it was indeed a little late at this time, if he rushed back to the banquet and dispersed the banquet, it would be a big deal, if Li San really wanted to gild himself, it was necessary to meet with important elders, and he couldn't leave the impression of not knowing etiquette first, now he just wants this Guo Dacai to make it quickly, so he can finish work early and rush back.
Zi'er must have great confidence in the poetry of this concubine, and she watched this poetry meeting with the mentality of watching the excitement, originally this girl was very interested in the poetry meeting of the literati, but now she saw a wonderful scene and completely forgot that the princess was still waiting to pay respects to the elders.
Guo Pinyi shook his head for a while, the white fan kept calling the fan, and the occasional inspiration was to hit the fan on his hand and close it, and he heard the sound of "pop", which was very imposing. In fact, it had been prepared a long time ago, and everyone didn't dare to speak, for fear of disturbing Guo Dacai's train of thought, so he was surprisingly quiet, and was just about to write, when he heard a person coming from a distance and said excitedly:
"Hey, I heard that a poem came from the health palace in the past, it seems to be called "Autumn Evening", and all the civil and military officials present applauded, and I heard that Princess Yuzhen praised it again and again! I'm afraid tonight this poem will be the biggest winner! ”
When the person who spoke saw a friend here, he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and didn't pay attention to the situation here, so he said excitedly, and his friends were very curious when they heard this, and they completely forgot about Guo Pinyi, who was composing poetry, and asked, "What poem is so powerful?" ”
Looking at the lively literati, these literati seem to be interested, you must know that tonight's health hall is the top priority that everyone cares about, how powerful are the poems that Princess Yuzhen can praise? The man recited the poem:
Silver candle autumn light cold painting screen,
Light Luo small fan fluttering fireflies.
The night of the heavenly steps is as cool as water,
Lie down and watch the morning glory Vega.
After reciting it, the man continued: "What does this person who composes poems seem to be, called Xu Chen Xu Wenxian......"
When everyone was still reminiscing about this poem, they heard the five words "Xu Chen Xu Wenxian", and their jaws fell off in shock, Xu Chen? Is that the pony sitting in the gazebo at the moment?
It's too exaggerated, if the horse gives people a curious impression in front of it, it is a direct shock at the moment, this person really wrote a few good poems like a legend, just this "Autumn Evening" is very rhythmic, far-reaching artistic conception, people read and think about it, melancholy, it is really a superior work.
Guo Pinyi naturally heard the discussion in the corridor, and the poem was also listened to in his mind, and when he learned that this poem was written by Xu Chen, his face was extremely ugly.
I was about to write just now, but I didn't expect this scene to appear, Guo Pinyi's poem to be written was prepared for several days, and after hearing Xu Chen's poems from the health palace, he suddenly lost his confidence, "Autumn Evening" is really brilliant, is it true that "After Dengke" and "Bo Qinhuai" are really made by him? Obviously, the level of the poem he prepared tonight did not reach this effect, and when he glanced at Xu Chen, who had a calm expression, his face was flushed, and it was difficult to write for a while.
Everyone quieted down for a while, held their breath, and was full of anticrisy to watch this powerful performance, but found that Guo Pinyi was actually grinding and drawing, and he didn't write a word for a long time.
Xu Chen was in a hurry, and he couldn't wait to go up and beat this guy up, write a poem, it's the same as constipation, please, I'm in a hurry here.
Xu Chen was a little surprised by the song "Autumn Evening" spread outside, but he didn't know why, but he didn't have time to think about it.
All this happened too suddenly, and suddenly Guo Caizi was blinded, and after Guo Pinyi worked the white paper with a stick of incense, he snapped, threw the brush on the table, didn't say hello, turned his head and left.
"Hey, Brother Guo!" Chen Wenxuan shouted after Guo Pinyi, but the old man didn't look back, and trotted away.
Everyone was stunned, tonight this colt doesn't know how many times they have stayed, please, you Guo Pin is also the first talent in the country, and you are still fighting poetry with others at this level? In the end, I scared myself away......
The stormy discussion directly exploded......
"Who else is going to fight poetry with me?!" Xu Chen stood up and said to the crowd.
Everyone is stupid, are you going to write poems?
Seeing that everyone didn't react, he said, "If not, I'll take my leave first." ”
After that, only a pretended figure was left in the corridor that was submerged little by little, silent......
Wellness Temple.
"Is there a poem coming from Qulou? What's new? Li San asked.
"There are no poems, but Xu Juma is in the Qulou ......" The eunuch didn't seem to dare to say it.
Li San asked in front of everyone, but he didn't expect Xu Chen to go to the Qulou, so he was a little displeased, and said, "Come quickly." ”
"Xu Juma beat Wang Bo, the son of King Renyi in the imperial history, Wang Bo in the Qulou ......"
Tian Yuma heard this, and almost didn't spit out the tea that came to his mouth, and Li San was even more surprised, he had never heard of such behavior, and the scene was silent all of a sudden.
"What about hitting him? In my opinion, it must be the son of Cheng in the imperial history who provoked trouble, and he beat it. ”
This was said by Princess Yuzhen, and it was said very lightly, just like watching children fight.
"What Princess Yuzhen said is that Xu Yuma has always been calm, so he will not do anything extreme, and he will fight if he fights, don't make a fuss......"
This is what Yang Yuhuan said, just like knowing a colt very well.
"It's not a big deal...... this is what Tian Juma said......
Beginning with Princess Yuzhen, the royal family present is all of a unified voice, and when this table is finished, it is the turn of Prime Minister Yang to announce "Xu Juma Qulou's violent and violent incident in the literary world", there is no choice.
