Chapter 80: Fifty Dollars
The crisis is lifted, and the big stone in my heart finally falls,
Li Chang'an was much brisker on the way to the invitation of Yan Qingshi's grandson.
But he didn't know that after the final selection results were announced, what an astonishing discussion was aroused among the scribes of the three southeastern provinces of the Great Jin Dynasty.
"It's too white again!? Does this Taibai really want to ride the dust and go straight to the Wenzong? ”
"Master Huang Qinshan also came up with his own poems, but in the end, Taibai's poems were better!"
"It's crazy, three academies, and one Master Huang, the result is still Taibai won, I can't even think about it."
"I only topped the Wensheng List in January, has Taibai's talent really reached such a terrifying point?"
……
The voice of discussion quickly spread from the three southeastern provinces to the entire Great Jin Dynasty.
After a month, Taibai's name spread all over the world, and now when everyone thought that he would have to recharge his energy for at least a while.
But he never thought that Taibai directly took out another poem, which made the two academies of Songyue and Xiangshan unable to raise their heads.
How domineering is this?
Don't give the strength of the way to live at all!
"I heard from the guys in the Cong Clerk's Office that the carved plates that had been set up were urgently redone."
"Shhh...... No way? ”
"Although the news has not been confirmed by the Cong Bookstore, many people have spread it, and after Master Huang Qinshan read Taibai's poem, he revised the script again."
"What the hell, is this Taibai's talent unstoppable?"
""Ascending the Ninth Floor" can also be said to be the result of many years of preparation and accumulation, and now this poem from the Cong Book Bureau, who can say that?"
"It's only been more than half a month since this foreign affairs mission was announced."
"Now I believe it, this guy Taibai is really amazing."
……
There was a lot of uproar outside, and there was already a lot of noise inside the academy.
Taibai doesn't seem to have the concept of resting, and after a month, he took out another song with his backhand, which looks as simple as eating and drinking.
Wenzong, the master of the Great Jin Dynasty, which shot was not the result of meticulous crafting?
A poem has been brewing for seven or eight months, and there are many people.
But Taibai didn't do this, reaching the top in January and continuing in February.
Oh no, it's not February, although the poem was written in February, but it will compete in March.
Dongyue Branch of Bailu Academy,
"Woohoo, it's too white and really god!"
"Could it be that we were deliberately returned seven times before, and then let the Cong Bookstore make a big deal out of it?"
"Why do you say that?"
"In this way, Taibai will have a chance to step on the other two academies to win."
“…… You're a genius! ”
……
Compared with the excitement of Bailu Academy, Songyue Academy and Xiangshan Academy were all holding their stomachs.
Although it was only the failure of the task of the branch school, if it was spread outside, others would only say that Songyue Academy and Xiangshan Academy were inferior to Bailu Academy.
This was too much of a blow to the reputation of the academy.
"Rubbish! A total of six poems were handed in, but none of them were selected! ”
"Do you know what's going on out there now? If the face is small, the reputation of the academy will be damaged! ”
"We can't let this Taibai continue to be arrogant, we must suppress it!"
Almost at the same time,
Without any discussion, the two academies both made the decision to suppress Taibai.
The appearance of such a super genius is very likely to "revive" the White Deer Academy, which was already in decline, again.
"Lord Zhanglou, after all, there is no master to make a move on this foreign affairs mission, so you shouldn't be so nervous, right?"
"Yes, in March, the Qianlong List, the four major academies and Guozijian will have super newcomers competing for the list, no matter how arrogant Taibai is, he can't do much."
"You know what? Even if Taibai can't reach the top in March, as long as he is ranked at the top of the Wensheng list, his momentum will be cultivated. ”
"I'm not worried about other times, but it's March, and our master Wenzong can't make a move, so he just makes room for Taibai."
"Immediately prepare other poems and essays within the academy to compete for the list, and be sure to press Taibai out of the top twenty."
“…… In addition, contact the master Wen Zong of the non-academy to see if they are willing to make a move. ”
Xiangshan Academy,
"There is news from Songyue, they are going to make a fuss about poetry and suppress Taibai, then we will do it in the script."
"Lord Zhanglou, the words are the business of the Cong Bookstore, how can we suppress it?"
"The better this book from Cong Bookstore sells, the stronger Taibai's reputation will be, and he can't be made popular."
"Dajin is not just one bookstore, immediately go to Tongque and Bailu Bookstore, and say that we fully support it, and hope that they can launch a new script and suppress Cong Bookstore."
"Taibai can't take advantage of the Wensheng list, if the Cong Bookstore fails again, then Taibai won't be able to make any waves in March."
"His rise must be stopped."
……
Li Changan came to the back door of the hook fence,
Yan Qingshi really waited here, "Childe, please come with me." ”
Yan Qingshi bowed slightly, and then walked inward.
Walk through the alleys, past seven or eight huts, and finally come to a small courtyard that could not be more simple.
Yan Qingshi's grandfather stood at the door, and when he saw Li Changan, he clasped his fists, "Li Gongzi." ”
Li Changan also returned the salute with a fist.
Yan Qingshi led the way.
It is not as good as Tonglu Hutong, and the environment is not good, but it is quite pyrotechnic.
There are a few dishes on the table in the back room.
Yan Qingshi went to the kitchen to heat up the rest of the dishes.
"The old man broke the bank." Li Changan was a little surprised in his heart, even if he just made amends, he didn't need to bother so much.
"It's not as good as the food in a big restaurant, just don't blame the son." Grandpa Yan asked Li Changan to take a seat, but Li Changan didn't dare to say anything, so he helped Grandpa Yan to the seat.
The two of them sat down, and Grandpa Yan slowly spoke, "Last time, because of the old decay, Li Gongzi was implicated in an unwarranted disaster, and the old man first gave Gongzi a cup." ”
Li Changan didn't say much, and followed with a drink.
"The Longhu Gang has been in this area for too long, and the old man is worried that the son will be angered by the Longhu Gang, and he has been uneasy for the past few days.
Grandpa Yan continued to raise his wine glass,
"The old man is just a grass people, and he only barely mixes a food and clothing in the hook bar to make a living, and the silver left by the son that day, the old man hopes that he can be more lenient and allow the old man to pay it back slowly."
Li Changan was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood why he had to invite himself to this meal.
I couldn't help but be deeply moved.
Even if he is just an ordinary person, even if he himself is a victim, he still has a scale in his heart, and he does not hesitate to drag down his life because of this.
This is the kindness of ordinary people.
"Old man, the silver is supposed to compensate for the tables, chairs and teapots, you don't have to mind."
Grandpa Yan drank the wine in the cup, "What you want, the old man's ability is limited, and the Longhu Gang is really powerless, but this old man has to pay it back no matter what." ”
"Come, Childe eats vegetables, Qingshi's cooking skills are not bad, I hope it can meet Childe's taste."
Li Changan picked up the vinegared cabbage in front of him, the entrance was crisp and sweet, and there was a hint of sweetness, which was really good.
"You are too modest, Miss Yan's craftsmanship is first-class even in the big restaurant."
At this time, Yan Qingshi came over with hot braised pork, "Childe praised it." ”
Grandpa Yan toasted from time to time, and Yan Qingshi also toasted.
Li Changan replied one by one, "Old man, you don't have to be like this, today's meal is enough." ”
Without waiting for Grandpa Yan to speak, Li Changan continued, "I heard you talk about books that day, and I don't know whether to talk about some suggestions or not. ”
Grandpa Yan said, "Childe, please speak." ”
Yan Qingshi also looked at Li Chang'an, and there was some doubt in her apricot eyes.
This Li Gongzi, does he even know the way of storytelling?
"You are always an expert in storytelling, but in later life, I realized that storytelling is also storytelling in the end."
Li Changan sorted out his thoughts, "Since it is a story, it is better to avoid flat and direct narration and add some twists and turns." ”
"Well, the big guys like to listen to strange and exciting."
"For example, on that day, you were talking about the unicorn of the Xichuan Li family, but most of the things you talked about were trivial matters on weekdays, so naturally they couldn't attract people."
"It's better to add some changes to it, such as encountering a strong enemy, and then lying down to taste the courage, breaking out in adversity, defeating a strong enemy, and so on......"
"Since it's a folk rumor, why don't you take the odd words to the extreme?"
Grandpa Yan heard Li Changan say this, and his dim eyes suddenly lit up, "I heard that Gongzi is a student of the academy, and I didn't expect that he would have such insight into such a lowly craft as storytelling." ”
Yan Qingshi's eyes on the side were bright, and he couldn't help but glance at Li Changan a few more times.
I thought it was just casual talk, but I didn't expect it to be able to say something.
Li Changan ate a piece of braised pork, "But the Qilin Zi of the Xichuan Li family is too far away from our people after all, I suggest you always talk about ordinary people." ”
"Ordinary people shouldn't have much to say, right?" Grandpa Yan asked suspiciously.
"Do you say that it is interesting for the Li family Qilin to be crowned the king, or is it more attractive for an ordinary person to worship the king at the end?"
Li Changan's question made Grandpa Yan stunned on the spot.
After a while, Grandpa Yan sighed with emotion and gave Li Changan another glass of wine, "Listening to Li Gongzi's words today, the old decay can be regarded as a sudden opening." ”
Speaking of this, Li Changan couldn't help but think that there was still a page of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" in the sheep fat jade book, maybe it could be adapted a little and take it to the bookstore to ask.
In terms of gathering fame, although the script is not as good as poetry and songs, it is only relative to the part of the poems at the top of the literary list.
If it can really meet the first-class standard of the bookstore's evaluation, the reputation gathered is also quite amazing.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many scribes who have been studying the script for a long time.
After eating and drinking, Li Changan got up and said goodbye.
Grandpa Yan thanked him again and again and sent Li Changan to the door, and Yan Qingshi continued to send Li Changan out.
"Thank you Li Gongzi, it's been a long time since I've seen my grandfather so happy."
"Miss Yan is polite, and the effort of raising her hands is not enough to worry about."
After a polite gesture, the two fell silent again.
This Yan Qingshi is petite, and by the standard of her previous life, she is only one meter six, which is much shorter than her sister-in-law's one meter six or eight, but she has an indescribable temperament.
The light in his eyes, in particular, seems to be forever full of hope.
Sending Li Changan to the back door of Goolan, Yan Qingshi bowed again, "Li Gongzi walks slowly." ”
Li Changan nodded, walked home, and suddenly remembered something, so he turned around and shouted, "Miss Yan." ”
Yan Qingshi stopped, "What's the matter with Childe?" ”
"The five taels of silver that Old Man Yan said, forget it...... Everyone's life is not easy, so you don't have to be so anxious. Li Changan said seriously.
Who expected Yan Qingshi to be quite serious, "What Gongzi said today is already kind to me and grandpa, although we are insignificant, but we don't want people to look down on it." ”
The bright apricot eyes looked at Li Changan, a little stubborn.
"Then it's ...... every month Fifty wen is fine, if not, I don't want this silver. ”
After Li Changan finished speaking, he turned around and left, not giving Yan Qingshi a chance to speak again,
"I'll come every month to collect the bills...... Good meal today. ”
Yan Qingshi opened her mouth, but found that she couldn't say a word when she looked at Li Changan's back.
