"Cups, utensils! Sir, your words are too ......" Wang Shenming, who was pondering, inadvertently raised his head and found that Lin Feng's white paper fan had "cup" and "tool" written on both sides. Accustomed to seeing Li Yu's stunning and brilliant font, the first feeling is that Lin Feng's words are extremely obscene and ugly. These two words were really written by Lin Feng with a brush after crossing by himself, and it can be said that it is the first time to write calligraphy, of course it is ugly.

After all, when he was young and frivolous, on weekdays, Li Yu was also the object of everyone's admiration, but today he seemed to be pressed everywhere, although he was impressed by Lin Feng's talent and knowledge, but after all, his heart would not be so easy to be happy.

With a "snap", he opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it slowly, revealing the words "let the moon in his hand, shake the wind and be full of arms" on it. This handsome, free-spirited, unique style of poetry and calligraphy, can not be compared with a rural villager's nondescript and inexplicable "cup" and "tool"?

Li Yu began to learn Liu Gongquan's calligraphy, and then carefully figured out the essence of calligraphy of Yan Zhenqing, Ouyang Xun, Chu Suiliang, Wang Xizhi, Wei Shuo and others, and incorporated it into the pen, forming a unique characteristic of thin and hard gestures and strong wind spirit. "The Book of the Emperor and Song Dynasty" once recorded: "After the south of the Yangtze River, the main book said thousands of words, the big characters are like cutting bamboo and wood, and the small characters are like gathering needles and nails, which seems to be not made by the power of the pen...... If you look at it by books, the queen can not be called a stubborn husband! ”

The mud bodhisattva is also a little angry, looking at Li Yu, he naturally has his own temper and temperament, otherwise, he would not have arranged for the people around him to sing the song "The old country is unbearable to look back at the moonlight" all night on the night of his forty-second birthday, and was poisoned by Zhao Guang with a drug.

As if intentionally or unintentionally, Li Yu asked lightly: "I see that the words 'cup' and 'gu' on the folding fan of Mr. must have a deep meaning, can you tell me?" ”

Lin Feng almost laughed out loud, the word "cup" actually corresponds to Li Yu's two poems.

The ancient literati liked to hold a paper fan in their hands and make respects after meeting. The paper fan spread out like a half-moon; As soon as it shakes, there is a fresh breeze. When Li Yu's poetry was flourishing, he made these two lines of poetry and regarded them as his most proud works.

In the original history, after Li Yu was captured, he participated in the court gathering of the Song Dynasty, and Zhao Kuangyin asked him to talk about his most proud work, and Li Yu blurted out these two sentences. Zhao Kuangyin was born as a military general, so naturally he would not seriously experience the true taste, coupled with the irony, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu commented with a smile, how much wind can there be in the full wind? Split his head and cover his face to give Li Yu a stage that he couldn't get off the stage. Subsequently, a few days later, Zhao Kuangyin himself felt that he had gone too far, so he called Li Yu to the palace for a banquet again, and praised him in public as "a good bachelor of Hanlin". Actually, it's better not to boast, after all, it was originally a country and a monarch, and now it has become a four-grade Hanlin bachelor, and this level has dropped too much, isn't this a cup?

This is Li Yu's personal life cup!

"May I ask the two sons, what do you think of the current situation in the world?" Lin Feng didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

What is the trend in the world? Li Yu really doesn't understand. Since he was born, he grew up in a comfortable and luxurious life, for his favorite music, calligraphy and painting, Buddhism, his grandfather and father have always been strong support, Li Yu also gave full play to the characteristics of the "rich three generations", never asked much about the so-called national affairs, there is a wise and martial father and a group of ministers, when is it their turn to worry about it?

Seeing that the master was silent, Wang Shenming felt that his face couldn't hold it, and counted it with his fingers: "I know that there are Northern Han and Khitan in the north of our Tang Dynasty, Wu Yue and Southern Han in the south, and Chu and Shu in the west, all of which have trade contacts with our country." ”

"Brother Shen Ming has good knowledge, but it's a bit too general, I don't know if I can listen to it carefully?" Lin Feng said for a long time.

"Sir, please." Li Yu said solemnly. Today's Lin Feng gave him too many shocks, and he was a little impatient to hear what whims and wonderful theories he had.

"The general trend of the world, together for a long time, must be divided, and for a long time, it must be united. Since the decline of the Tang Dynasty in the previous dynasty, the military disaster has been 50 years, and the people have suffered greatly, and the people are looking forward to reunification. The key question is who will be in charge?

Since ancient times, at the end of the chaos in the world, there will always be one side that rises up and dominates the world. The violent Qin made a fortune from the northwest, unified Liuhe, and ended the Spring and Autumn Warring States Rebellion; Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, made his fortune from the Central Plains, defeated Xiang Yu from the south, and opened the prosperous era of the Han Dynasty; During the Three Kingdoms, Wei came from the north, destroyed Wu and Shu in the south, and unified the world again; Tang Gaozu and Tang Taizong rose from the Three Jin Dynasty, swept the Eight Wildernesses, and established the Tang Dynasty...... In a word, since ancient times, there have been many people who have unified the south with the north, and few people who have unified the north with the south. There are many reasons for this, but they are inseparable from the strength and strength of the northern countries. ”

As he spoke, Lin Feng drew a map of the situation in the late Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms on the ground with a tree branch, drawing out the Southern Tang Dynasty and the surrounding countries one by one, pointing to the Southern Tang Dynasty and asking, "Two sons, look at the countries around us, how do you feel?" ”

"Our Tang territory is not small!" Wang Shenming said in a daze.

"We're surrounded!" Li Yu was horrified.

"Yes. To give an inappropriate analogy, the area of our Tang Dynasty is indeed not small, but in my eyes, it is like a cauldron, Shu in the west is too far away, not to mention the Han in the north adjacent to us, the Chu State in the west, the Southern Han in the south, and Wu Yue in the east, which is like supporting the four brackets of our Southern Tang cauldron.

Now, the north is disturbing, and you will sing and I will appear, but who can ensure that no heroes will be born, drink the Yangtze River, and whip south? At that time, it is very likely that the Han or the subsequent regime will be the one who sets up the fire and burns the pot, and everyone in our Southern Tang Dynasty is very likely to be frogs cooked in a cauldron that has been slowly simmered by the fire. And now, these frogs are still swimming in the water without realizing it. Lin Feng said with some sadness.

"Impossible! Before the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Northern and Southern Dynasties were chaotic for nearly 200 years? Wang Shenming didn't believe that reunification would come soon, and was anxious to get rid of that feeling of unease, arguing loudly, "Now, my Tang soldiers are strong and strong, my emperor is wise and powerful, invincible, and I destroyed the Fujian State four years ago. ”

Lin Feng smiled silently.

Wang Shenming was even more anxious, and asked with some annoyance, "Aren't you from the north?" If you think that the North will definitely unify the South, then why do you want to come to us, and it is not more certain that you will join the regime in the North, and it seems that you are just talking nonsense! ”

Lin Feng waved the branch in his hand, drew a larger territory on the north side of the Han Dynasty, wrote the word Khitan heavily, and then pointed to the junction of the Han and Khitan, and said eloquently: "Since Jin Shi Jingtang ceded the sixteen states of Yanyun, the northern natural barrier of the Han nationality has been lost. Even if the Han people in the north unify the world to the south, it is not unified in the true sense. Its weakness has always been under the threat of the horse's hooves of the northern barbarians, and it will be destroyed at any time!

Throughout the history of China, it is actually a history of struggle between the north and the south, the south refers to our farming people, and the north refers to the nomadic people of the north, that is, what we call barbarians. Due to the cultural, geographical, political, economic, characteristic, psychological and other differences between the two sides, the two sides will inevitably be a-for-needle battle. The north is good at attacking, the south is good at defending, but defending must be at a strategic disadvantage, since the Spring and Autumn Period, the Great Wall is the best proof that the defense is weaker than the attack, and the chaotic era of Wuhu Chaohua is the true portrayal of the south after not being able to defend. ”

In the original history, after Zhao Kuangyin unified China, he suffered successive defeats under the Khitan. The Song and the Khitan made an alliance with the Yuanyuan, and they confronted each other in the Baigou area for a long time. Under the siege of wolves such as Khitan, Western Xia, Jin, and Jurchen, the Great Song Dynasty lost its national strength, and the blood gradually ran out, retreating to the south step by step, until it was driven into the sea.

"The glow-in-the-dark glass of grape wine is so luxurious, once you lose the table you can rely on, or you don't have a hand to hold it, and you fall to the ground, it will break immediately, this is not a cup (tragedy) drama (tool)." Lin Feng sighed lightly.

This is the big cup of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
