Chapter 310: Fu Shi Yellow Crane Tower
The basic shape of Wuchang City is in the Ming Hongwu four years, when Zhou Dexing, who was the Marquis of Jiangxia, expanded the Wuchang Mansion City, more than 20 miles around, the wall is made of terracotta bricks, and the wall is more than two to three zhang high. In the city of Wuchang, there are alleys and alleys, government offices are clustered, cultural buildings such as Fuxue, Gongyuan, Confucian Temple and so on are all over the place, and literati and bachelors gather, it is like a city landscape of the center of government, which is an important city wall in the south at that time.
There are many places of interest and historic sites in Wuchang City, the most famous is the Yellow Crane Tower built in Wuchang Snake Mountain.
According to historical records, the Yellow Crane Tower was built in the era of the Three Kingdoms, it is only the "military building" of the corner of Xiakou City to look out and guard, after the Jin Dynasty destroyed the Eastern Wu, the Three Kingdoms were unified, the building lost its military value at the same time, with the development of Jiangxia City, it gradually evolved into the ornamental building of the official and commercial travel "tour must be then", "banquet must be then".
The Yellow Crane Tower looks like Wuchang from the outside, in fact, there are five layers of mezzanine inside, the whole building is 51 meters high, plus it is built on the Snake Mountain, it is quite eye-catching, it is one of the landmarks of Wuchang.
Why is the Yellow Crane Tower named "Yellow Crane", one says that the original building was built on the Yellow Crane Rock, and the descendants pronounce "Bird" as "Crane", so as to spread the falsehood, and the word of mouth proves that it has become a fact.
One is the legend of the "Immortal Yellow Crane" with a miraculous color. According to legend, this place was originally a hotel opened by the Xin family, and in order to thank her for the kindness of a thousand cups, a priest drew a crane on the wall before leaving, telling it to come down and dance to help the fun. Since then, the number of guests has been full and business has been prosperous. After ten years, the Taoist priest returned, took the flute and played, and the Taoist priest stepped on the yellow crane and went straight to the clouds. In order to commemorate the immortal who helped her get rich, Xin set up a building in its place and named it "Yellow Crane Tower".
In the late Ming period. The Yellow Crane Tower is a big restaurant, which is equivalent to a luxurious five-star hotel. Dignitaries and wealthy business travelers have come one after another, but ordinary people have no money or leisure to come here to consume.
The Yellow Crane Tower is just a place for diners to eat and drink. The kitchen and wine shop are located outside the building, which allows visitors to enjoy the scenery along the Yangtze River more leisurely.
Li Guo and others were dressed in civilian clothes, approached the Yellow Crane Tower, and saw a horizontal plaque hanging on the top of the door, on which were written several big characters of vigor 'Chutian Jimu', which means that the Yellow Crane Tower is located on the Snake Mountain, and the Yellow Crane Tower is climbed to the meaning of looking far away. The group climbed the Yellow Crane Tower, and sure enough. Looking at the north and south of the river, and looking at Chu Tianshu, I didn't feel that my mood suddenly brightened, and my heart became happy.
Nie Xin's poetic nature is great, and he unconsciously remembered the famous work of the great poet Cui Hao, the Yellow Crane Tower, "The people of the past have taken the Yellow Crane to go, and the Yellow Crane Tower is vacant here." The yellow crane is gone, and the white clouds are empty for thousands of years. Qingchuan calendar Hanyang tree, fragrant grass and parrot island. Where is the sunset township, and the Yanbo River makes people worried. ”
Chen Wangting also nodded frequently: "Cui Hao's poem is really a good poem." It is said that the poet immortal Li Bai passed by the Yellow Crane Tower and wanted to write a poem, but he also put down his pen for it, and there was "a scene in front of him." Cui Hao's inscription poem is on the top". ”
"Cui Hao's poem is not bad, but it is too sad, I am waiting for the world. How can you lament and make such a mournful voice? See this. I'm too poetic, a rough man! I just brewed a poem in my stomach, and I couldn't help it. I want to write it down and enjoy it with you! Li Guo said this because he suddenly remembered that in the original time and space, the great man he admired also wrote a poem about the Yellow Crane Tower, and in line with his love for that great man, Li Guo was extremely familiar with his poems, and at this moment, he brazenly took the poem.
"Oh? I didn't expect the tiger master to have such talent? Chen Wangting was a little unconvinced, during this period of contact with Li Guo, Chen Wangting deeply admired Li Guo's concept of governing the country and the army, but Li Guo scolded and scolded all day long, a big old and rough appearance, and suddenly said that he wanted to compose poetry, which was beyond Chen Wangting's expectations.
Nie Xin and Liu Ru were unconsciously surprised, their master could hold back a poem for half a year, and sometimes it was very good. But Cui Hao wrote poems in the Yellow Crane Tower, and even Li Bai didn't dare to write them, can we do it?
Seeing Li Guo's confident appearance, Nie Xin hurriedly found pen and ink.
I saw Li Guo pick up the pen and write crookedly on the wall of the Yellow Crane Tower.
"Bodhisattva. Yellow crane tower
The vast nine factions flow through China, and the heavy line runs through the north and south. The smoke and rain are reckless, and the turtle and snake lock the river. Where does the Yellow Crane go? There are only tourist places left. Drink the wine and get your heart high! ”
As soon as this poem was written, everyone applauded from the bottom of their hearts.
"Oh, Master Tiger is really a civil and military all-rounder! This poem by the tiger master is quite powerful! This poem is different from Cui Hao's work! swept away Cui Shi's decadent meaning, showing the unique mind and spirit of the tiger master, and great strength! Great power! I, Chen Wangting, used to look away at the tiger master, and at this time, Fang was really convinced! Chen Wangting praised loudly, Chen Wangting's own literary talent is also outstanding, he didn't expect Li Guo to write such a good poem, and he thought highly of Li Guo, and his eyebrows became more and more respectful to Li Guo.
"Good poetry! The vast nine factions flow in China, which talks about the meaning of the disputes between the people's army, the official army, and the princes of all walks of life in today's troubled times. Shen Shen line through the north and south, presumably the tiger is talking about us, this is also the tiger master's ambition, in the future, our tiger army will go north to conquer, will be able to sweep the north and south, and achieve great achievements! Nie Xin twisted his beard and smiled, looking very complacent that he had guessed Li Guo's thoughts, "Master Tiger, I don't know if I'm talking about it?" ”
Li Guo also smiled and said nothing, what do you like to think, anyway, this poem is really good.
"Drink the wine, the mood is high! The momentum is vibrant, and it is really extraordinary! Master, let the concubine pour you a drink! Liu Ru's poetry book is even more extraordinary, and he admires the poem plagiarized by Li Guo.
"Okay, you pour three cups for Lao Tzu!" Li Guo began to be vulgar.
Everyone was not surprised, and they all felt that Li Guo's vulgar appearance was actually a disguised show of wisdom.
Liu Ru didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly poured wine for Li Guo with a smile, and was very proud in his heart, he found such a literary general.
Li Guo drank three glasses in a row, quite complacent, and admired the great man who wrote this poem even more in his heart.
Li Guo waved his hand and ordered everyone to sit down and drink. Everyone sat down leaning over Li Guo to show respect for Li Guo.
At this time, all kinds of dishes have been served, and the last dish is steamed Wuchang fish. Li Guo originally wanted to recite another poem of the great man, but after looking around, he suddenly lost interest.
Li Guo asked, "Haven't this red lady and Jiang Fa come back yet?" ”
The crowd shook their heads.
Li Guo scolded, "This little girl, I don't know where to go in the wilderness, I have to pull Jiang Fa!" Come, ignore them, let's eat and talk! ”
After speaking, Li Guo stretched out his chopsticks, sandwiched a piece of steamed tender Wuchang fish, put it in his mouth and chewed it! The crowd stretched out.
At this time, I only heard the sound of the stairs, and two people ran up panting, kneeling down in front of Li Guo, "Master Hu, something happened, the red lady and Jiang Fa jumped to the Chu Palace!" ”
Everyone saw that they were two personal soldiers among the people who followed the red lady out.
"What's going on? Didn't the red lady say to buy some flowers, hairpins and the like? Li Guo was a little puzzled. (To be continued......)
