Chapter 7: Wine Poems
According to historical facts, the story in "Luo Shen Futu" should take place in 222 AD, that is, two years after Cao Pi ascended the throne, and it is also two years after the well-known "Seven Steps Poem" was written, but there is a very important thing here Everyone must know in advance, the transportation and communication during the Three Kingdoms period are far from today, although Cao Zhi's "Seven Steps Poem" is famous, but just two years is not enough for it to be introduced to ordinary people's homes, and even if it is said that even in the palace, there are a few people who know its full picture.
And my "Anti-Seven Step Poem" is not only based on his "Seven Step Poem", but also has a different artistic conception.
The whole convoy was silent, the horses' hooves stopped, and even the attendants on both sides of the carriage stopped, no longer shaking the huge fan in their hands.
"You ......" The elixir in Cao Zhi's cup overflowed, soaking his gorgeous robes. He pointed his finger at me, his lips twitching slightly, and the angry look he had just had was gone, leaving only a look of disbelief.
It took a long time for two words to slowly spit out two words from his mouth, two vague words that everyone could understand. "Good...... Good poetry! ”
He put down his glass and clapped slowly, first slowly, then more and more rapidly. "Sir not only understands my Zijian's poems, but also has some other opinions, it seems that I was narrow-minded just now."
Seeing Cao Zhi's appreciation, the people around also applauded, and the thunderous applause shook like the ground. "What a poem! What a poem! ”
The general who took the lead also put away the arrogant and unreasonable posture just now, and apologized again and again. "It's because I don't know Taishan and think that Mr. is a rural villager, but I didn't expect Mr. to be so knowledgeable and talented, but I don't know that His Royal Highness admires people the most, and I am ashamed to be ashamed."
The 180-degree turn in their attitude made me recover for a long time, but I felt that I really had nothing to say, so I could only vaguely say two words. "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be."
"You guys!" Cao Zhi beckoned to the little attendant behind him. "What are you doing in a daze? Prepare a horse for Mr. Liu! ”
The two little attendants did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly ran to the back of the convoy and brought a white horse. The white horse probably had never seen anyone dressed like me, and he was neighing and restless.
"Your Highness? I wonder what you mean by that? I asked.
"Sir, if you don't dislike it, how about returning to Juancheng with me as my doorman? I can't give you anything else, but at least I can let my husband have enough food and clothing, and enjoy all the glory and wealth. Cao Zhi said with a smile, his eyes full of longing. Wouldn't it be wonderful for us to drink and compose poetry every day in the future? ”
Cao Zhi was really as bold as rumored, and even invited me to be a guest without even asking about my life experience, but this excessive freedom made me scruples. Before entering the realm of painting, the painter repeatedly told me not to talk nonsense, but just now it was really a helpless move, and if I didn't memorize a poem, my head might move. Now that Cao Zhi has invited me to go with him, doesn't that mean that he has changed the course of the story.
If this is the real world, I will gladly accept it, but this is the world in the painting, it is a false world, I came to see the story, not to participate in the story, and his olive branch makes me worried.
"Why is your face so sad, sir?" Cao Zhi was also puzzled when he saw that I was delaying my reply. "If there is any inconvenience, Mr. can just say it directly, Zijian has never been difficult to force others."
I ...... "Naturally, I'm going to make up a reasonable reason." I just think I'm a layman, how can I drink and write poems with His Royal Highness, who is a royal family. ”
"Hahaha" Cao Zhi raised his head to the sky and roared, throwing the lid of the jade pot directly aside, and drinking the remaining wine in the pot. "If ordinary people say this, forget it, how can my husband be erudite and talented, and stick to these worldly things!"
"This ......"
"Throne! Princely! It's just a dream! This is a southwest wind, why did it enter the arms of the king? "The more Cao Zhi talked, the more excited he became, and he was a little arrogant." Come on, help Mr. Liu on the horse, he is stuck in the code of ethics, I want to make an exception today! ”
As soon as I finished speaking, several soldiers stepped off their horses and walked up to me, grabbed me, and dragged me to the horse's back, where my flesh was squeezed between the saddles and in pain. "Your Highness! Your ......"
"Someone! Bring Mr. Liu wine. Cao Zhi laughed heartily when he saw me being forced on horseback. I am very happy to meet Mr. today, Mr. is like a spring flower, if he thinks about a spring, Zijian is a respectful person. ”
As he spoke, Cao Zhi took out a new jade pot from behind him and drank it heartily.
The attendant hurriedly took out a glass of liquor that had already been filled from a luggage cart behind and handed it to me. I shuddered, took the flask, not knowing where to go.
"Sir, what are you doing in a daze? This is the best Du Kang wine, the former emperor Zeng Shiyun: How can you solve your worries, only Du Kang, how can this immortal brewed elixir not get drunk? Hahaha"
I thought to myself that this time it wasn't me talking nonsense, it was this Cao Zhi who forced me to go with him, and I had to drink and have fun, and it had nothing to do with me what the specific story developed into.
Just drink it.
I took a sip, but I didn't feel the concentration of any alcohol, the wine of the Three Kingdoms period was really light, and I am a modern person who can drink this clear and light wine with ease.
So I drank it all without fear, and then gently turned the flask upside down, signaling Cao Zhi to have nothing left.
"Good!" Cao Zhi clapped his hands and applauded, "Mr. is not only good at writing, but also has such a large amount, Zijian admires it." ”
Not to be outdone, he also took a sip of the remaining wine in his jade pot, and the wine flowed down the corners of his mouth.
"It's really nice to meet Mr. today." Cao Zhi raised his glass and shouted. "On the wine hall, relatives and friends will swim from me! To be honest, Zijian has no interest in fame and fortune in this life, and life is as short as morning dew, so he has to do what he likes. ”
"Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon" I echoed casually. I just came out of this poem naturally in the context of Cao Zhi, and there was absolutely no half-flirtatious rhetoric. Who would have thought that this inadvertently caused Cao Zhi to be ecstatic again.
"What a man of God, sir! You can make such a quatrain casually! Cao Zhi was excited. I thought that my literary talent had already turned a blind eye to the world, but today I know that there are people outside the world. ”
"Your Highness, in fact, these poems are ......"
"Sir, I don't need to say much, I will know the poetry as soon as I hear it, come! Zijian toasts you again! Saying that, Cao Zhi poured another glass of wine. Sir is really my confidant! ”
"My son has built a lifetime, and it is enough to have wine, poetry, and confidants!" His hearty laughter was especially refreshing on this hot summer day.
