Chapter 111: Don't go a day without a book
In the next few days, Concubine Wen accompanied her with books, accompanied by books, and used books as "tour guides".
Every time she had a meal, Concubine Wen was tied to this collection of poems, and almost fell into the realm where Confucius didn't know the taste of meat when she listened to Shao Le for three months, and she wanted to gobble it up, but she didn't dare to be "presumptuous" in front of Emperor Xu and her sisters, and she was entangled in her heart.
Once, Concubine Wen behaved very obviously, without saying a word, bowing her head to eat. The rest of the beauties all discovered Concubine Wen's soul, and they all offered their hospitality, vying to offer delicacies to Emperor Xu's bowl, such as venison, beef tendon, cordyceps sea cucumber, etc., which made Emperor Xu's heart weird, and suddenly felt: "Love" is also a kind of pressure!
Looking at the royal bowls piled up like a hill, Emperor Xu roared: "Enough is enough, when I was a child, I was tired of the boring days of stretching out my hands to eat and open my mouth, my grandmother, my own grandmother, my heavy love, I have already made me breathless, and I have found twenty old aunts to cook my diet and daily life, can you experience this kind of doting that makes people tired and crazy?" ”
The beauties were stunned by this eternal argument, and didn't know how to answer, and finally, the eighth sister came to her senses and apologized loudly: "Long live, the concubine knows her mistake, please don't punish it." The beauties responded with "Don't dare anymore, don't dare anymore."
Concubine Wen was also frightened, she thought that Emperor Xu was her bosom friend and good friend, pulled out her thoughts from the bookish complex, pondered for a while, and said gently: "Saint, there is no love in the world for no reason, whether it is the love of the grandmother for her grandchildren, or the love of the concubine for the master, if it is all light, is this still called love?" You should rejoice. ”
The beauties quickly cast grateful glances, some with tears in their eyes.
"Yes, yes, my sister is right." The beauties unanimously agreed.
"Right for what?" Emperor Xu's tone was a lot more tactful.
Concubine Wen thought about giving Emperor Xu a step down, and said: "However, too much love and pity will weaken the ability of each of us to take care of ourselves, if we reduce many movements of the limbs, it is not conducive to blood circulation and food digestion, which is harmful to health, because life lies in sports, sisters, can you agree with my sister's words?" ”
"Agree, let's say, these delicacies we have chosen, I don't know if they are in line with the holy's preference, we should also respect the taste of Banzai!" The third sister, Qi Tianle, immediately played a round game, which made Emperor Xu calm down and eat happily.
For a few days, Emperor Xu noticed Concubine Wen's unwarranted coldness and absent-mindedness, and felt strange, but Concubine Wen kept silent about the reason. Emperor Xu felt bored, and immediately flipped through the other beauties' brands, and Concubine Wen was not annoyed, but was even happier in her heart, but she was not happy.
A few days later, Emperor Xu felt that without the company of Concubine Wen, he was very bored, and spent the night like a year.
At night, Emperor Xu had already stepped into the Jade Butterfly Dormitory, and immediately pulled out his legs, while making up a lie: "I forgot something, go back and get it." ”
The jade butterfly looked at it, but did not see the shadow of the jade tree, and scolded angrily: "Deadly fox spirit, hum!" He swept Emperor Xu away with his tail, what a broom star. ”
Concubine Wen listened to the saint walk in, and immediately hid the poetry collection under the pillow.
"Aifei, what are you hiding?" Concubine Wen had to take out the book, and when she saw that it was Su Aiqing's poetry collection, Emperor Xu was very excited.
"It turns out that I can't give up my soul for this book, who am I, I have the world in my heart, I love the concubine, think about it, will I eat the vinegar of the concubine because of a book?"
Although Emperor Xu said this, there was a hint of jealousy in his eyes. How could Concubine Wen not notice? It's just that she will observe her words and looks, and immediately said with relief: "That's natural, Qingmei, the person I fell in love with is definitely not trivial." ”
"I want to punish you, atone for your sins, and help me read a few poems or select a few sentences. Aiqing's poems, some of which are very long. He was demoted to Huizhou by me, think about it, he is 59 years old, and he is still so hard-working, I can't bear it. ”
Concubine Wen thought that her companion was like a tiger, so she couldn't help but carry the emperor on her back and gasped.
"Yes, the concubine is happy to serve."
"Everyone wants to be smart, and I have been mistaken for my whole life by being smart. I hope that the child will be foolish and reckless, and there will be no disaster and no difficulty to the minister. ”
As soon as Emperor Xu heard this poem, he waved his hand: "Stop, Aiqing said that my heart is on the road." If I didn't have such a developed brain, maybe I wouldn't have so many diseases, and if I could live the life of an ordinary man, I don't know how happy I would be. ”
Concubine Wen responded: "Yes, whether you are an emperor or a poor concubine, only if you are in good health, in a relaxed mood, and do what you love all your life, is the source of all happiness." ”
Concubine Wen continued to read, "Ice muscles and jade bones, cool and sweatless." The wind in the water hall is full of dark fragrance. The embroidered curtain is opened, a little bright moon peeps at people, people are not sleeping, and the sound is the same as "clothes", which means to lean. The pillow hairpin is messy.
Get up and carry your hands, the courtyard is silent, and you see the sparse stars crossing the river from time to time. How was the night? The night has been three watches, the golden wave is light, and the jade rope turns low. But when does the west wind come, and it will not be secretly changed for years. ”
When Emperor Xu heard such a beautiful word, he couldn't help but take Concubine Wen's slender jade hand and praised: "Aifei, you also have ice-like skin like Madame Hua Rui, jade-like bones, naturally cool all over, no hot sweat." ”
After that, he got up and took Concubine Wen's little hand like a beautiful jade, and walked into the silent courtyard. Looking up at the night sky, I saw that the Milky Way was exceptionally clear, silent all around, and a little meteor passed by. asked in a low voice, "Aifei, how deep is the night?" How many hours has the night passed? On my fingers, I have spent 19 years of spring and autumn. Summer and autumn come, autumn comes golden wind and falling leaves, and the winter solstice is unbearable. I don't know how many years I can enjoy with this sick body? As everyone knows, at this moment of gratuitous sighing, the seasons are changing unconsciously, and the good years of life are passing like this! ”
After Emperor Xu's dream-like idiota, Concubine Wen suddenly felt that the passing years were terrifying, and she felt as if the protagonist in the story had traveled to several dynasties, so she couldn't wait to ask Emperor Xu to tell the deep meaning of the word and the story of Madame Hua Rui.
This poem describes the scene of Meng Chang (pronounced the same as "factory") and his concubine Mrs. Hua Rui enjoying the cool on the Mohe Pond on a summer night after the fifth dynasty, deliberately portraying the beauty and nobility of Mrs. Hua Rui's posture and soul. For such a "concubine of the dead country" who had scandals with three emperors, Su Shi calmly portrayed her as almost a fairy, and did not shy away from writing about her love with Meng Chang. This word was widely sung in the Song Dynasty, and no Taoist scholar jumped out to say irresponsible remarks, which shows the great charm and popularity of Su Aiqing. ”
"Well, that's interesting, Brother Xu, I'm tired of reading too, can you tell me an allusion about him?"
"The Holy Lord's dictation, the concubine obeys the decree." Emperor Xu sneered in his throat.
"Shall I kneel then?" Concubine Wen also pretended to be serious.
"Please Princess Fuqing listen to my story, and the mother concubine will listen to it on your behalf."
Concubine Wen couldn't help but laugh.
"Wow! The retainers thanked Long En. Concubine Wen was overjoyed.
Su Dongpo was demoted to Lingnan as an official, and he traveled to the mountains without anything for a day, only to see a little monk kneeling at the door of the temple with tears in his eyes, very strange, and asked the little monk why he was so? The little monk cried because he accidentally knocked the lamp to the ground and shattered it when he was lighting it. The old monk not only beat him, but also punished him by kneeling at the gate of the temple for three days. Su Dongpo was very angry when he heard this, so he walked into the temple to see the abbot.
The abbot in the temple was overjoyed when he heard that it was the talented man Su who came to visit. As soon as Su Dongpo entered the temple gate, the old monk flattered him in every possible way, begging Su Dongpo to leave a handwriting.
Su Dongpo hated this abbot very much, but in order to stop the little monk at the gate of the temple from suffering, he agreed to the old monk's request and said: "It's okay to write, but you must ask the kneeling little monk at the temple gate to come and polish the ink and paper for me." ”
When the old monk heard this, he immediately smiled all over his face, and promised repeatedly: "Amitabha, the old man obeys the order." ”
The little monk sharpened the ink, unfolded the paper, Su Dongpo worked hard to write, and a couplet was swept away: the incarnation of a person returned overnight, and the eight thousand ordinary people had nothing.
Not long after, Buddha Yin traveled to this mountain, saw the couplet and laughed, and asked the old monk: "This couplet was originally two anagrams, didn't you guess it?" The old monk hurriedly asked what it meant, and the Buddha seal asked for a pen and paper, wrote two words with a wave, and walked away.
"Father, the son is stupid, is Senior Su scolding the monk for being 'bald'?" Concubine Wen replied on behalf of the little princess, which made Emperor Xu very happy.
"Exactly!" The two emperors and concubines laughed at the same time, and then rested sweetly.
