Chapter 35: The Great Confucians

As soon as these words came out, Gu Beichuan stopped talking.

Qin Xiuwen also didn't speak, because he really didn't know what to say.

After a long silence, he let out a long sigh and said:

"Brother Gu Xian is so young, he is already indifferent to fame and fortune!"

Yes, it's too indifferent to fame and fortune.

A scholar of Gu Beichuan's age should be full of ambition, full of enthusiasm, and eager to seek fame.

In other words, ninety percent of the people in the world study for fame.

But what about him?

is obviously not at the age of the crown, but he has such an insight, sees through the fame, and is not burdened by Lilu.

How rare is this kind of realm?

If Qin Xiuwen was joking when he said before, then he really felt a little embarrassed now.

He realized this truth, left Kyoto, returned to his hometown, and founded Bailu Academy.

But what about Brother Gu Xian?

Less than two decades! How can it not be embarrassing?

"If you are not indifferent, you will not be ambitious, and if you are not quiet, you will not be far-reaching."

"This is Beichuan Fang's feelings, how about giving it to Brother Qin?"

Qin Xiuwen has drifted all his life, and he has experienced countless winds and rains.

But when he heard this, he still couldn't help laughing.

"It is the luck of a foolish brother to be able to get acquainted with a virtuous brother!"

At this point, everything that should be said and what should not be said has been said, and the rest is in the wine.

The two of them were staggered, and for a while, it could be said that the guests and hosts were happy.

After a long time, Gu Beichuan left.

Qin Xiuwen, who was already a little drunk, was holding a pair of words in his hand, which was written in wild cursiveness, "If you are not indifferent, you will not have a clear ambition, and if you are not quiet, you will not be far-reaching." ”

He hung it on the most conspicuous wall of the room.

Adjacent to it, there are also the contemporary Confucian, the "Landscape Order" of the Guozi Priest Jiu Hu Yan and the authentic painting of the painting of Shengliu Daoyuan "Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains".

These two paintings and calligraphy, if others look at them, I am afraid that even the eyeballs will stare out.

The great Confucian Hu Yan is good at calligraphy, and the "Landscape Order" is his famous article, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a thousand words.

"A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is even more valuable.

Legend has it that this is the last painting that was made 20 years ago, when he painted Shengyanagi Daoyuan who traveled all over the famous mountains and rivers of Daqian, saw all the lakes and seas, and went through vicissitudes!

And now, the painting Saint Yanagi Michigen has passed away.

In other words, "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" is his posthumous work!

Its value has long been immeasurable, and I am afraid that it cannot be measured in money.

Qin Xiuwen was able to get this painting, and it was also due to chance and coincidence.

But now, he put the words written by Gu Beichuan casually alongside "Landscape Order" and "Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains"!

It can be seen that these fourteen words carry the weight in his heart!

"If the old man can understand the truth expounded in these fourteen words as soon as possible, he will not be burdened by fame and fortune, and he will not be harmed by traitors. Presumably, it's a different story now. ”

When he was young, Qin Xiuwen studied hard for ten years and no one asked, and once he became famous and known to the world.

After he studied hard, he won the top prize, and he played right in the Jinluan Palace, and he was a protégé of the Son of Heaven!

At that time, how high-spirited was he?

It can be described as a scholarly spirit, scolding Fang Xuan. Inspire words, point out the country, nothing more!

Now the country's son is in the limelight, and at that time, he was much inferior to him.

However, above the court, there are treacherous clouds.

Each of the princes has their own calculations.

Sharpness is not necessarily a good thing.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it!

However, a few years later, one of his inconsequential mistakes was discovered by his political opponents, and then he united with the party and magnified it infinitely, causing him to lose the favor of the Son of Heaven.

What followed was all kinds of suppression, which overwhelmed the former champion.

In the end, Qin Xiuwen had reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven.

But he wasted half his life and achieved nothing. In the end, he had no choice but to return to his hometown to retire.

On the contrary, Hu Yan, who looked ordinary at the beginning, shined brightly, was deeply used by His Majesty, and became the priest of the country.

It is conceivable that Hu Yan's intelligence lies in his clumsiness.

"What is a momentary fame? People, we still have to look at the long term. Qin Xiuwen looked at the clouds on the horizon and sighed.

......

A few days later, the news of the upcoming second Huainan Poetry Meeting came out.

When it was, the Huainan talents were undoubtedly surprised.

Talk about knowledge at the poetry meeting, so as to make a hundred feet of progress and go further. It's a good thing, but it's too often.

Not long after the last poetry meeting, this is another time, how can you write poetry?

But when they heard that this poetry meeting was led by the great Confucian Qin Xiuwen, and invited everyone from neighboring counties to come to watch the ceremony, the Huainan talents cheered up and realized that this poetry meeting was not simple.

Somehow, it seems, is too grandiose.

In the past, Huainan poetry clubs were confined to such a small circle in the Huainan literary circle.

But now, everyone Qin seems to want to go out.

This is a dangerous move, if you go well, you will naturally be happy, and show your style in the Huainan literary world.

But if you don't walk well and can't make good poems, you'll lose face.

In the spring of the next year, when the talents of Huainan went to Beijing to take the examination, they were afraid that they would naturally be a little shorter in the face of talents from other counties.

What is the most important thing for a reader? Naturally, it's face!

The clothes can be messy, and the crown can be dissolved, but this face must not be lost.

Therefore, in order to defend the face of Huainan's literary circle, the talents have been studying hard behind closed doors in the past few days, vowing to make a masterpiece to cope with this poetry meeting.

But how can such a thing as poetry be done by inspiration, and by hard work?

So when the poetry meeting was held, most of the talented people's faces were a little ugly, and they were obviously a little lacking in confidence.

Especially when he saw those figures standing beside the great Confucian Qin Xiuwen.

"Look, that's Zheng Ximeng, who is famous for his words?"

"Not bad! I heard that the relationship between the Zheng family and the Qin family is very good, and it is in Jiangnan County, not far from Huainan County. If everyone Qin invites them, they must come. ”

"Also, the one with the three-foot long hair, but Mr. Drunkard?"

"Not bad! I heard that Mr. Drunkard was originally a child of a rich family, but he was not good at business. simply scattered all his wealth and lingered among the mountains and rivers all day long. His poems can be said to have written all the spring flowers and autumn moons, lakes and mountains. ”

"Haha, I heard that Mr. Drunkard is especially good at wine. I don't know if I have four famous wines in Huainan, can I smile at Mr. Bo. ”

"Naturally, it is possible, Gu Dongjia's winemaking skills are impeccable."

"There are also Liu Wenzhou, Liu everyone, Wang Tiexuan, and Wang Tiexuan."

"These are all the surrounding counties and counties, and they are famous in the literary world!"

"I actually gathered in my Huainan Poetry Club, and it was really a beautiful conversation to say it."

Event!

Today is enough to be called a rare event in the Huainan literary world for several years!

And in the face of such a scene, even the four great talents of Huainan couldn't help but sweat on their foreheads, their lips were white, and they were extremely nervous.
