Chapter 107: Decline the invitation
readx;? The garden is unusually quiet, and it can compose two poems in such a short time, which makes the literati who claim to be extraordinary in writing embarrassed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Bodhisattva Barbarian, Dragon Boat Festival Day Yong Pot Chrysanthemum" is the work of Gu Taiqing, a female lyricist in the Qing Dynasty, and it is a song of flowers.
"Bodhisattva Man" is a small order for the word card, forty-four characters, composed of five or seven words.
The first half of the poem first explains that the time is summer, the warm south wind blows all over the palace, and the cherries are also ripe and the incense burning in the house to drive away the heat, and then supplemented it with "a small fan leads to a slight coolness, and the summer days are long".
In the second half, he writes about the joy of the blooming of the flower, admiring the gardener who cultivated it, and only at the end does he say the word "chrysanthemum" to express his amazement.
This poem is impeccable in terms of style and artistic conception.
Those who were still questioning "Yongdai" before all bowed their heads in shame.
Miss Xin'er's eyes wandered, and she could see that she loved these two poems very much.
He Chang tugged on Gu Meng's sleeve and asked, "Ziyi's literary talent is so outstanding?"
Gu Meng shook his head and said, "Don't ask me, I don't know anything, I just taught him the method of calligraphy and cultivation, not poetry and songs." ”
Xu Hao stroked his beard while laughing, and said: "How about it, let the official guess correctly, Ziyi dares to step forward, he must know it in his heart, he has never been a person without a target." ”
He Chang nodded and said, "After today's literary meeting, Ziyi's literary name will rise again. ”
At this time, a shout sounded outside the garden: "Lord Yin Ren, Shen Daren of Yingtian Academy has arrived." ”
The two really made their appearance in the finale, although this was a civil gathering, but they still brought the officialdom over.
Qin Mo showed a hint of displeasure, he hated this kind of big-name practice the most, engaging in privileges everywhere, for fear that others would not know his noble status.
On the other hand, everyone else is accustomed to it, and some people who are good at slapping horses highly respect it, in their opinion, the official should be like this, and the older the official, the later he should come.
If you can do it equally, you will be fine, but if you are a regular guest, you will not be eligible to enter the park if you are late.
Qin Mo's expression only changed slightly, but she was still clearly seen by Xin'er, a trace of strangeness flashed in her eyes, and her eyes at Qin Mo also changed slightly.
Shen Cheng and Ren Minxue walked over together, their faces were full of smiles, and they humbly asked each other to walk in front, looking extremely harmonious.
In fact, everyone knows that the two often quarrel because of their different political views, and Ren Minxue scolded Shen Cheng for being pedantic in front of people more than once.
Shen Cheng also said more than once that Ren Minxue was a fool, he had a bachelor's degree, he couldn't share the worries of the king, he couldn't solve the danger of the people, and the corpse was vegetarian.
Qin Mo's impression of Shen Cheng can only be regarded as upper-middle, when Shen Cheng spoke up in the government examination papers, it was also because Qin Mo used Su Dongpo's poems, plus he had to stand on the opposite side of Ren Minxue, and was influenced by Zhao Kai, the third prince, and Zhao Feiyan, the lord of Zimu, for these reasons, he stood on Qin Mo's side.
At this moment, it can be proved that Shen Cheng is a real official.
Ren Minxue spoke first: "The official heard Miss Xin'er reciting a poem at the door, I don't know who did it?"
Xin'er saluted him and replied: "This poem is the masterpiece of the world's first child Qin Mo Qin's case, the artistic conception is transcendent, please judge it." ”
Ren Minxue saw Qin Mo standing next to the bookcase, and his eyes couldn't help but tighten.
In the last government examination papers, he tried his best to give the title of the first calligraphy case to Cai Cheng, the nephew of the old thief, but was attacked by Shen Cheng, Zhao Kai, and Zhao Feiyan, and finally had to change the sentence to Qin Mo.
This incident made him angry, in addition to being angry, he also had to appease the Zhang family, because he promised the other party not to give Qin Mo a chance to be on the list, and he also had to write a letter to Cai Jing in a sincere tone, admitting that he was incompetent and did not help Cai Cheng get the head of the case.
Qin Mo was named the first child in the world, which made him feel even more slapped in the face, and belittled Qin Mo's test paper in front of so many examiners, but in the end, it was such a result, it was inevitable that people would suspect that his eyesight was not good and he was famous.
The others slammed at Ren Minxue to the ground, but Qin Mo only symbolically arched his hand.
Ren Minxue was even more angry, and said very politely: "This official has no interest in appreciating such a beautiful poem, and his ears are extremely dirty." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.
Qin Mo said-for-tat: "Of course, the student's clumsy work is not worthy of the evaluation of Lord Yin, just like during the government exam, if Lord Ren is in charge, how can the title of head of the case fall on my head." ”
Ren Min was not lightly angry, in front of so many people, and he couldn't deal with a teenager, he snorted angrily, and turned his head to look to the side.
Shen Cheng's eyes rolled, and he said sarcastically: "Lord Ren said that the words of the head of the Qin case are the sound of beauty, and the official does not dare to agree, maybe the official is only shallow in learning, but he feels that the meaning of this poem is quite profound, if Su Sansheng is still alive, he will definitely praise it." ”
If it were someone else, he would definitely be spurned by everyone for saying such things, but Shen Cheng is a member of the Meizhou Su Society and the vice president of the Nanjing Branch, and he uses the name of Su Sansheng to praise a person, who dares to disagree?
Ren Min gritted his teeth angrily, but he couldn't think of a rebuttal.
Qin Mo smiled and said, "Thank you Shen Daren for your praise, the student is ashamed." ”
Then, he turned to Xin'er and said, "The student is ugly, so I will leave." ”
With that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Xin'er hurriedly said: "Please stay at the head of the case, the Wenhui has just begun, and there are many interesting projects in the future, why is the head of the case in a hurry to leave?"
Qin Mo replied with a smile: "If students want to take the college exam in a month, they must hurry up and cultivate, so I'm really sorry and take my leave." ”
Of course, Xin'er was unwilling to let him go, and was just about to speak out to dissuade him, Ren Minxue said sourly on the side: "It's rare for the head of the case to work so hard, Miss Xin'er shouldn't be strong." ”
When Lord Fu Yin spoke, Xin'er and a little woman naturally didn't dare to refute, so she could only watch Qin Mo, Gu Meng, He Chang and Xu Hao leave.
The literary meeting continued, and with Qin Mo taking the lead, many talents thought about the spring, and they came forward to write poems and lyrics.
But there are dozens of songs in a row, none of which can be compared with "Bodhisattva Man", and even failed to reach the level of "Yongdai", either the artistic conception is too poor, or the words are too impetuous, and they are far from the requirements of good works.
Gradually, Xin'er's interest decreased greatly, and her attitude towards Ren Minxue became very flat, and she didn't even smile for a long time.
She believes that if it weren't for Ren Minxue's appearance and those sarcastic words, Qin Mo would definitely be able to come up with a masterpiece.
Zhang Wenqi quietly approached Ren Minxue's side, he did not speak, but quietly listened to their conversation.
Ren Minxue said to a subordinate: "Qin Mo really doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and he still has to participate in this year's college exam, it's strange that he can win the list." ”
The subordinate smiled and said: "Lord Fu Yin speaks, then he naturally can't win! This son does have some talent, but it's a pity that he is too arrogant and doesn't even give you face, he won't know that you are the chief examiner of the college examination, right?"
Ren Minxue smiled: "He thinks that the Wendao Imperial Examination is fair, as long as he is talented, he will not worry about not being on the list." ”
The subordinate snorted: "Then he is very wrong, if the exam is fair, what else does the examiner do?"
"This official will never let him be on the list!" Ren Minxue said through gritted teeth.
Zhang Wenqi was overjoyed in his heart, after today's literary meeting, the news of Qin Mo's participation in the hospital examination will definitely spread throughout Nanjing Mansion, and the government will release the test list in a month, but there is no name for him, which is interesting.
......
On the flying car, Xu Hao shook his head and said, "Ziyi, you are too reckless, you shouldn't confront Ren Minxue in person." ”
Qin Mo said with a relaxed face: "My lord is worried that he will do something in the hospital exam, so he won't let me be on the list." ”
Xu Hao nodded and said: "Fu Yin is the chief examiner in the college examination, this is a practice for many years, Ren Min has the support of the old thief Cai Jing, and the position of Fu Yin is as stable as Mount Tai, as long as he is in Nanjing Mansion for one day, he will not let you be on the list easily." ”
If you can't be admitted to Xiucai, let alone the next lifters and jinshi.
Xu Hao's worries are not unreasonable, Qin Mo has great talents, but if he can't even pass the exam, it will inevitably lead to the exhaustion of literary talents over time, which is the most terrifying.
Qin Mo smiled and asked rhetorically, "If I had respected Ren Minxue just now, or even groveled, would he have let me go?"
Xu Hao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Unlikely, Ren Minxue is a well-known small-bellied chicken intestine, because of your name as the head of the case, he first lost face in front of the third prince and the county lord Zimu, and then lost face on the side of the Zhang family and Cai Jing's old thief, how can he easily forgive you." ”
In other words, Ren Minxue has reached the point of hatred for Qin Mo.
Qin Mo spread his hands and said, "Isn't that the end, since it's useless for me to please him, why bother doing more?" On the contrary, it is better to be neither humble nor arrogant, at least let everyone know that I, Qin Mo, am a person who is not afraid of the powerful." ”
Xu Hao frowned, and said: "What you said has a certain amount of truth, but the official still thinks it is inappropriate, the eldest husband should be able to bend and stretch, you give a step, at least the other party will not force it so tightly, it will be good for you." Well, now that you and him are in a tight relationship, he doesn't want to target you, and in this case, you have no chance of making the list. ”
Qin Mo was not worried, and asked again: "Is it really possible at all?"
Xu Hao sighed and said, "Of course there is, you have to leave Nanjing Mansion and go to other places to take the government exam, with your strength, it will not be a problem to win the list." This matter is not difficult to do, this official will immediately use the family relationship to arrange it for you, it is better to go to Bianliang, Tokyo, Lord Yin Wang is an upright person, and if you don't agree with the old thief and the party, you should be able to fulfill your talent and literary position. ”
Qin Mo shook his head: "Transferring to another school is not what I want, as a person from Nanjing Mansion, I naturally have to take the college examination in Nanjing Mansion." ”
Xu Hao was a little angry: "Ziyi, why are you so reluctant, don't you hit the south wall and don't look back? If you can't pass the Xiucai exam this year, all the previous efforts will be in vain, you know?"
Qin Mo smiled and said, "Don't be angry, the student already has a countermeasure, of course, you have to come forward to help." ”
"What's the busy?"
"Help me deliver a letter to the city of Tokyo, the other party's status is too high, I am a child, it is difficult to deliver the letter to him. ”
