Capital Chapter 5 Friendship Volume: The Charm of Poetry
Coming to the capital again, the joy in Lin Qingran's heart was beyond words. Although she only had half a day to buy, she also bought a lot of things she liked.
People buy items from the back door, but she is good and takes them directly from the front door to the hall.
Lin Qingran excitedly placed the purchased items on the table in the hall.
Li Mingyuan was really helpless when he saw her like this, "What are you doing?" ”
"I just bought it." She said happily, "This is the mung bean cake that I didn't buy last time, and this sauce duck from Xinzhou!" I also packed dishes and fruit brews under the East Fence, which is the most famous restaurant in Beijing......"
"Okay, okay, let's take it to the back kitchen first." As the prince said, all she bought was to eat and drink.
"Okay, I'll take it first." As she spoke, she was ready to clean up and take it to the back kitchen.
"Wait, let them take it, I have something to say to you."
Lin Qingran reluctantly watched the attendant take away the food on the table, and wanted to steal some food by the way.
"What do you want to say?" She pursed the corners of her lips and asked with a slight dissatisfaction.
"You sit down first." After going out for so long, she must have been thirsty too, "Come on, serve tea." Li Mingyuan commanded.
The attendant brought the vegetable water, and Li Mingyuan asked them all to retreat.
Lin Qingran took two sips of it, and then heard him say, "The prince has been here." ”
"Has the prince been here?" She was overjoyed when she heard this.
"Why are you so happy?" Li Mingyuan's tone seemed to be a little displeased.
"I don't have to see him, of course I'm happy." That's great, it just happened to be in my absence.
So that's it...... He breathed a sigh of relief, "People really want to see you." ”
"Huh? He wants to see me? Isn't it...... Did I offend him as a child? "Her ideas are always so bizarre.
"Of course not, he's here to invite us to a gathering for a few days." Let's make it clear to her.
"We?"
"Yes, with me and with you."
Thinking of this elegant gathering, isn't it just that those idle and bored literati in the capital get together with sons and young ladies, pretending to be, and comparing with each other.
She is now a guard in the mansion, "I am like this now, how can I participate in this gathering." "I didn't want to go in the first place.
"Just follow me." Li Mingyuan said.
Follow him...... Wouldn't that be even more boring, "At your level of poetry, go to Yaji?" ”
"You...... It's really not big or small, and I've read a few poetry books before. Li Mingyuan said dissatisfied.
"Just last time that day was at the end of the mountain?" It's a place to show off, isn't he going to lose face?
"Anyway, I promised, you have to go, you have to go, you have to go if you don't go." He spoke in a commanding tone.
This Li Mingyuan is really hateful, Lin Qingran glanced at him, didn't want to pay attention to it, and drank the water by himself.
Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, Li Mingyuan said again: "Aren't you the first talented woman in the capital!" I didn't dare to go because I was afraid that they wouldn't succeed. ”
Lin Qingran swallowed the water in his mouth hard, "Who is afraid of whom!" Go for it! ”
Or is it more useful to agitate the generals.
Lin Qingran then said: "If you have to go, then you... How to say it, you still have to read some poetry books, otherwise this will be the face of the Dingwang Mansion. ”
"It makes sense, I saw a few poems in the study yesterday, and I'll take a look at them later."
"Well, it's good to hold Buddha's feet temporarily."
Li Mingyuan glanced at her, "And you, you have to watch it with me." ”
"Me? Why? ”
"You don't come to take care of the face of the Dingwang Mansion."
Alas......!
The kitchen quickly prepared lunch and brought it up.
Lin Qingran found that there was no food she bought, and she asked puzzledly, "What did I just buy?" ”
"Eat later, lunch is ready." Li Mingyuan said, "What's more, I have to go to the study to read later, and it's not good to eat too much." ”
I should have eaten some if I knew it was going to be.
After lunch, the two got up and went to the study.
After Lin Qingran came in, he walked to the bookshelf and checked the books on it, except for some miscellaneous ones, most of them were poems and songs, "It's quite a lot." ”
Poetry and songs have always been popular in Jiangnan Beijing, so there are many books on this subject.
She pulled out a copy and read it for a while, and then she was a little sleepy.
"I'm too tired to just go out, I'll go lie down." With that, she prepared to go to the top of the study to take a nap.
After lying down, she suddenly remembered the last time she drooled while riding a horse, and quickly turned around.
Li Mingyuan didn't pay attention to her, and took the book and read it by himself.
After looking at it for a while, he found that there was no movement, and when he turned around, he saw that Lin Qingran was already lying on the top of the collapse and falling asleep.
"Alas......!"
Reading a book alone was really boring, he put down the book and walked over, wanting to see if Lin Qingran was really asleep or pretending.
She was lying on her side, and although she was dressed in men's clothes, she also showed a delicate figure. The appearance of falling asleep was more pleasant than usual, and he was a little relaxed and happy.
Li Mingyuan shook his head vigorously, sat back at the desk and looked at the book, looking at it was also a little sleepy, the bamboo forest outside the window, a breeze blew, he propped his hands on the table, and snoozed.
I don't know how long it took, he was woken up by a noise, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Lin Qingran holding a book and holding a chair that was about to fall.
After Lin Qingran woke up, he found that Li Mingyuan was also sitting at the desk and falling asleep. She cautiously walked over, ready to take some books to read first, but when she turned around, she accidentally bumped into a chair and made a noise.
Seeing Li Mingyuan being woken up, she smiled embarrassedly, and then straightened her chair.
"Come here." Li Mingyuan said.
This person, when she was still asleep, was more like a noble son, and she reluctantly walked over.
"What books do you have in your hand?" He asked.
"It's just some poetry."
"Show me."
Lin Qingran handed over the two books in his hand.
Li Mingyuan picked up a copy casually and asked, "Flying Flower Order?" What is it? ”
She explained: "This flying flower order is a kind of wine order used to help the fun when drinking, and when you go to this kind of elegant gathering, these literati like to take a wine glass and find people everywhere to write poems, and they seem to be very talented." You can study it first. ”
I like to find these strange books, Li Mingyuan picked up another one, "A thousand poems, this one seems to be pretty good." ”
"Yes, cramming for the time being, this one is the most suitable."
"By the way, I just found a book that suits you well." Li Mingyuan handed the book over as he spoke.
Lin Qingran glanced at the title of the book, "Rites? ”
"Yes, rites, through the state, the community, the people, and the heirs. Don't you think it's important? He said.
And that's what you say, your least favorite book, "Aren't we here to learn poetry?" "She didn't want to see any etiquette.
"I accidentally flipped over." Li Mingyuan wanted to say it more naturally.
Too lazy to pay attention to him, Lin Qingran put down the etiquette note, pointed to the flying flower order and said, "Let's take a look at this book first." Because she thinks that compared with other literati, this kind of person who likes to go around with a wine glass to find someone to write poetry should be guarded against.
Li Mingyuan picked up the Flying Flower Order, flipped to a page casually, and chanted:
"The swing courtyard is heavy at dusk, and the colored pen is idle to embroider the household.
The wall head is full of apricot rain flowers, and the green poplars outside the door are flocculent after the wind. ”
"It's only verses, and I don't understand it." It was much more difficult than the poetry he had read before.
"Let me answer......" Lin Qingran said: "The swing courtyard is heavy and twilight, this literal meaning is easy to understand." Color pen, according to legend, the south of the river flooded to get a five-color pen, the pen is like a god, and later the color pen was taken away by the god in a dream, since then Jiang Lang is exhausted. The apricot blossoms wither after the rain and fall inside the wall; The wind blew and fluttered and fell outside the wall. It depicts the lonely state of mind that the deceased did not see at this time. ”
"En......" Li Mingyuan listened carefully, if he couldn't see her in the future, he should be in this state of mind, he turned another page: "The trail is red and thin, and the suburbs are green." The high platform trees are overcast. The spring breeze does not lift the ban on poplars, and the misty flutters on the pedestrians. ”
"Well, this is to depict the scene of late spring and early summer, expressing the passage of time." Lin Qingran said again.
"That's good." Li Mingyuan was a little addicted to it, "Gathering and scattering and traveling is like a dream, and I don't think about it." Zhong Qing did not avoid Tongxiang in the end. ”
Of course, this is Su Shi's word. said that the deceit in those officialdoms, the ups and downs of the official career, are just ordinary things, but the last sentence Zhongqing did not avoid Tongxiang and expressed all the feelings of the lyricist. After speaking, Lin Qingran thought of his father, whether he was also in this mood.
"There will naturally be these when you enter the officialdom, if you can't see through it, I don't think it's necessary to be an official." Li Mingyuan looked at her and said.
"Yes, yes, you know." As he spoke, Lin Qingran raised his head, just facing Li Mingyuan, who was too close to him, and saw him looking at him, his face was slightly red for a while, "Look for yourself!" She said a little shyly.
Li Mingyuan was a little timid when he saw her like this, "No one explained." ”
Lin Qingran picked up a thousand poems, "Then look at this one." She handed him the book, "There is an answer to this one, you can read more." ”
Li Mingyuan took this book of thousands of poems, turned the first page, and chanted:
"Looking for Hu Yinjun"
Crossing the water and crossing the water, looking at the flowers and looking at the flowers.
On the road of the Chunfeng River, I didn't feel that I was at Jun's house.
It is indeed written that this is the first poem to visit friends, which is quite easy to understand. He said.
"Well, it's quite appropriate to go to Yaji." Lin Qingran said approvingly on the side.
"And this ......," he turned to the page again,
"Summer Valley Cloud Spring"
The clouds and shadows are green, and the sound of springs is turbulent.
There is no June in the long forest, and the dill is cold in autumn.
What does this mean by writing that the hermit is transcendent and travels in the forest and springs? Li Mingyuan couldn't quite understand this.
"This ......" Lin Qingran didn't know how to explain for a while, "you should be the face of the Dingwang Mansion." ”
Li Mingyuan heard the meaning of her words, smiled and said, "Then I must write it down." ”
"Okay, you can remember more and use it when the time comes." After speaking, Lin Qingran got up and went to the bookshelf to check out the other books.
Sometimes memorizing poems really requires a state of mind, and if you are in a good mood, you can remember it much faster.
Li Mingyuan usually dislikes to read these crepe poems, but today he finds them particularly interesting.
