Chapter 330: The Longchang Period (II)
- The two in front were talking, and the people in the back were not idle, Wang Yan looked at Chen Ke and found that the other party was indeed more manly than himself...... He didn't want to think that he was a sixteen-year-old hairy child.
Chen Ke could feel that this kid was a little hostile to himself, and he couldn't help but be confused. He didn't know that this was all caused by his father-in-law, saying that the father and son of the Su family entered Beijing this time, in order to enjoy the spectacular mountains and rivers, they took the Three Gorges, and then went down the river and went north along the route of the canal. When passing through Jiangning, he was entertained by Wang Anshi.
At this time, the father and son of the Su family have already moved the world in one fell swoop. Even Wang Anshi is deeply admired by Sansu's talent in literature and martial arts, and his knowledge of ancient and modern learning, and I heard that Su Xun also has a daughter, who is also extremely smart, and can do everything in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and his daughter Wang Xun is inseparable. So Lao Wang had the idea of marrying the Su family.
During the banquet, Wang Anshi praised his eldest son to Su Xun and said: "Little Wang Yan, you can recite it after reading it only once." ”
Who knew that Su Xun didn't like Wang Anshi horizontally and vertically, and after drinking some wine, he blurted out and said, "Whose son still needs to read it twice?" ”
"It's a gaffe, and I shouldn't have an axe." Only then did Wang Anshi remember that praising his son in front of Su Xun was not a humiliation?
Lao Su got carried away, and even spewed out another sentence: "Not only the child only once, but even the little girl only reads it once." ”
Wang Anshixin said, this is just right. He ordered the boy to take out a volume of text and said to Su Xun: "This is a child's reading homework, and I am annoyed to read it." ”
Su Xun put the scroll in his sleeve, went back to the post house and slept until midnight, and when he woke up, he began to regret it. Secretly said, I shouldn't praise my daughter for being talented in front of Wang Anshi, now Wang Anshi asked me to comment on my son's homework, there must be a desire to ask for marriage, how can this be good...... In fact, tell the other party bluntly that it is best for my daughter to have a master. However, Su Xun was still angry with Chen Ke at that time, where was he willing to say this?
After getting up the next morning, Su Xun carefully read Wang Yan's article, and it was really splendid, and every word was beautiful. I didn't feel moved by my love for talent. Secretly said, this son is also worthy of the little sister. If the two are fated, it is like competing for favor with the Liu girl.
He thought about it, and then hid Wang Yan's name, and handed the article to Xiaomei at breakfast: "This volume of text." It was presented by a young celebrity, begging me to comment, I have a headache these days, and I can't bear to read the text, so you can comment on it for your father. ”
Su Xiaomei read the scroll. After a while, he sighed: "It is indeed a good text, this must be made by a clever man, but it is exhaustive, flashy, and I am afraid it will not last long." "Then he ordered the volume to criticize: 'The novelty is its strength; Subtle and graceful is its shortcoming. It is more than enough to take the highest, and it is not enough to enjoy longevity. ’
The little sister writes a criticism. Teach the maid to return the scroll to her father, Su Xun was shocked when she saw it, how to reply to Wang Anshi with such criticism? In desperation, I had to cut off the roll and replace it again. Coupled with good comments, handed over to Wang Anshi, and told him the truth: "How dare the old man disobey the matter of the Prime Minister's family?" It's just that the little girl has already married someone. Annoying and good words to convey. ”
Wang Anshi looked at the volume and changed it, and he was already displeased. Holding back his unhappiness, he asked, "I don't know which talented person is one step ahead of my family?" ”
"The son of an old friend, Chen Ke and Chen Zhongfang ......"
"Oh, hahaha......" Wang Anshi laughed when he heard this: "If you didn't say it earlier, if I knew it earlier, why waste my efforts?" So he didn't mention it anymore and sent the Su family out of Jiangning.
Wang Anshi didn't take this matter to heart, but Wang Yan was deeply ashamed, he secretly hated the Su family who made him lose face, and hated the house and Wu, and also looked at Chen Ke not so pleasing to the eye. It's just that although he is not very old, he has a strong chest, since he listened to Zhang Zihou's advice and chose Zhao Zongji's side, he will never have a quarrel with his confidants.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After a slight adjustment, Wang Yan smiled at Chen Ke and said: "The "Dictionary" written by Brother Zhong Fang, the younger brother has used it for several years, but every time he opens it, he is still amazed. ”
"It's just a stupid effort." Chen Ke said with a smile: "If Brother Xian is willing to work hard, with your ingenuity, you will definitely be able to write a better book." ”
Wang Yanxin said, 'Of course', but said with a smile on his face: "Foolish brother is foolish, how can you have any wisdom?" ”
"I heard that when Brother Xian was young, a guest put a deer and a roe deer in a cage and gave them to the prince, and it happened that Brother Xian was also nearby, so the guest asked: 'Which one is a deer, which one is ...... roe deer'" Chen Ke smiled and said: "How can ordinary people recognize it, but Brother Xian replied, 'Next to the deer is a roe deer, next to the roe deer is a deer', you were only five years old at that time, right?" ”
Wang Yan couldn't imagine that his reputation had spread all over the world, and he couldn't help laughing: "There is a way that 'feng shui rotates', but if the next line of heaven has turned to Shuzhong." Not to mention far away, just talk about Brother Zhongfang's family, as well as the Ling Yue family......" paused and smiled: "Oh yes, there is also this Mr. Wuling in front of him, which can be said to occupy the scenery of the world." ”
Chen Ke saw that he was not targeting himself, thinking that the other party was subconsciously contemptuous of literati, so he didn't think deeply, and said with a smile: "Now that it is the prosperous era of the literary world, there are endless heroes in the world, and no one can occupy the scenery of the world's literary world, right?" ”
"This is absolute," Wang Yan shook his head and sneered: "As long as the person in front of him does not have any basket and is recognized by the imperial court, then from now on, everyone will no longer be beautiful......"
"Yes......" Chen Ke nodded, this is also where he and Zhao Zongji have been worried, but there is nothing to be done. The power of the Long Chang period is too great, and when he heard that he came to Beijing, even Su Shi couldn't hold it back, and joined the welcoming army, let alone others?
However, Wang Yan didn't have much to do, the two were relatively speechless, and they were a little silent for a while.
Seeing that there was a little cold, Wang Anli leaned over and said with a smile: "Brother Zhong Fang, I have admired the name for a long time, and I love your song in the ice and snow forest, which is different from peach and plum mixed with fragrant dust." Suddenly, the fragrance of the night was scattered', "Even if Chen Ke regarded himself as Wang Anshi's junior, he didn't dare to pretend to be this leader of the same age, so he could only talk about it: "It's really good and ambitious." ”
"The younger brother prefers the song "Eternal Happiness", the eternal country, the hero is nowhere to be found, and Sun Zhong is looking for a solution." Wang Anshang also interjected: "'I want to think of the past, Jin Ge Iron Horse, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger'. I really can't imagine that Brother Zhong Fang can write the graceful and fragrant words so heroically that the straight teacher has to dance the sword and sing. After a pause, he said: "But when you get to Xia Yan, why do you suddenly become sad?" ”
Chen Ke couldn't help but blush slightly, although he wrote a lot of poems, but what he really recited for people was the works of those who stole from later generations...... There's really no way, talent is not something that can be honed with hard work after all.
The poem recited by Wang Anli is actually the work of the Yuan Dynasty poet Wang Mian, and what Wang Anshang said is naturally a famous story of Xin Qiji...... It is said that Lao Xin's words are the most appetizing to Chen Ke, so he is also the most ruthless, I am afraid that when he is born and grows up, there will always be a feeling of 'there is a scene in front of him, and Chen Ke's inscription poem is ahead'.
In the lower part of this poem, Chen Ke, in order not to help him, changed 'forty-three years, Wangzhong still remembers, Fenghuo Yangzhou Road' to 'Twenty-three years, Wangzhong still remembers, Fenghuo Shaanxi Road'. His original intention was to encourage a comrade to rise up in the same year, but he didn't mean anything else, so he smiled and said: "'The young man doesn't know the taste of sorrow, so he is worried about the new words'." "Accidentally, Lao Xin was shot again.
"What a 'young man doesn't know the taste of sorrow, and he is worried about the new words'!" Wang Anli and his brothers praised together.
However, Wang Yan disagreed: "Brother Zhong Fang, it's better to be careful in the future." 'Yuanjia Caocao, seal the wolf Juxu, and win the Canghuang Beigu', aren't you afraid that others will say that you are using the past to satirize the present? ”
Everyone was stunned, and then shocked, yes, twenty-three years ago, the Great Song Dynasty took the initiative to attack Western Xia with the strength of the whole country, intending to eliminate Li Yuanhao in one fell swoop, but who knew that he seized the opportunity and fought to the ground, although in the end Yuan Hao sued for peace, but that was because the disparity between the national strength of the two countries was too great, and there was Liao on the side, in order to preserve strength, he had to promote peace by war.
Despite this, in order to maintain the face of the Great Song Dynasty, the imperial court has always claimed that it is the victor, Chen Ke took Liu Yu's son Liu Yilong, intending to seal the wolf Juxu and make a large-scale northern expedition, but instead let the Northern Wei Emperor Tuoba Tao take the opportunity to wave his army south, and the army arrived on the north bank of the Yangtze River and returned, and was hit hard by the opponent.
Chen Ke chuckled in his heart, but immediately smiled: "It's a metaphor for the present, not a satire of the present." 'Yuan Jia Caocao, sealed the wolf Juxu, and won the Canghuang Beigu. Twenty-three years, I still remember the beacon Shaanxi Road. can look back, under the Buddha shrine, a crow shrine drum. Who asks: Lian Po is old, can he still eat? 'What I mean, the war with the Western Xia, my dynasty was very poorly prepared, so it ended up a 'hasty', but now Yuan Hao is dead, the Western Xia lord and young ministers are horizontal, and the national strength is declining. ”
But he secretly said in his heart, it seems that the words after the southern crossing in the future should be used carefully, so as not to be caught by others and take the opportunity to make trouble.
He thought that Wang Yan would continue to ridicule each other, but who knew that the other party actually stroked his palm and praised: "Well said, it really speaks the voice of the foolish brother!" Wang Yan said to Wang An: "Uncle, now I understand, this poem is a work of martial artists, with the deep calmness of Xia Rong, it is the warm-hearted heart of my generation of scholars!" ”
Hearing this kid say this, Chen Ke actually breathed a sigh of relief, for some reason, he didn't feel so much pressure in front of Wang Anshi. It can only be said that this sixteen-year-old boy is really a demonic existence......
Moving his gaze elsewhere to calm his mind a little, Chen Ke inadvertently saw that on the carriage of the Wang family's daughter, the curtain was lifted, and a pair of smart big eyes were looking at him without a moment.
It was a little girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, full of youthful atmosphere, and her beauty was even better than that of her little sister. Finding that Chen Ke was looking at herself, she was not flustered like an ordinary girl, but smiled playfully, and said crisply: "Eight hundred miles of Dongting, surging waves and rolling waves, where did the adults come from?" ”
