Emperor Daojun twisted his beard and smiled when he heard this, what kind of topic should he come up with?

He glanced at the people below, Zhou Bangyan definitely wouldn't start writing lyrics, it should be those lyricists in the capital who came first, then this topic can't be too difficult, and the difficult ones should be left behind.

He understands Zhou Bangyan's style of words, Zhou's words are elegant, romantic, and long-term, regardless of ancient and modern, so don't use these for now.

He also understands Zhao Tan's poetic style and style of words, he has read the poems of the second child over the years, most of them boast of pride, drum ambition, Taoism, write side stops, and speak pathos, but it is less than describing the scene.

It's completely two ways, if you talk about the style alone, the two have their own merits, but they are not related.

Zhou Bangyan is less majestic, and Zhao Ta is less tender.

However, in comparison, Zhou Bangyan is more comprehensive, after all, he has been there for years, and he has written all kinds of poems for decades, whether good or bad, he can always write them all.

Zhao Ta is different, at least Emperor Daojun has never seen him write scenery poems, sad spring and sad autumn are rare, as for festivals, those two Mid-Autumn Festival songs are the first to suffer.

Thinking of this, Emperor Daojun smiled and said: "It's good for me to come out first, and now that autumn is deep, I will compose lyrics and songs according to the current atmosphere." ”

Writing in the current mood, that is, writing autumn, you can write about your feelings, you can write about autumn scenery, you can borrow autumn songs, but the premise is indispensable to describe the scenery.

In Emperor Daojun's heart, this is something that Zhao Ta is not good at.

Zhao Ta heard the words below, lowered his eyes slightly, and a subtle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Sure enough, it was targeted from the title.

But this was all in his expectation, and Emperor Daojun would come up with a topic that he rarely did on weekdays, thinking that he was not good at it.

He usually writes less scenery and less affection, and he is more bold and enlightened, and Emperor Daojun will come in reverse according to this path.

Combined with the fact that Zhou Bangyan will not take the first step, but let those lyricists test it, then Emperor Daojun will not come up with too difficult questions, and it is most likely to be a question that should be in season.

What time should it be? It's autumn, naturally!

He sent a total of three tunes to Zhao Yuannu, the first of which was written in autumn.

Zhou Bangyan and the others said together: "The ministers obey the order. ”

Zhao Ta also said: "The minister's decree." ”

It's a wheel war, and it's not a song or a few songs that will be won or lost.

There is a person on the opposite side who makes an autumn speech, and he responds here, and then the next person on the next topic, or even after a round, he can come back again until one side can't take it.

But who let him have no one, he can't find someone to help him charge into battle, after all, the song has just risen, and there are very few good ones, and it is estimated that the Gyeonggi area is in full swing, and he is far away from the border areas such as the north and west of Guangzhou, and I am afraid that the song has not yet spread.

At this time, not to mention that there is no faction about Qingqu, even the general path to be followed has not been formed.

Zhao Ta is going to open a way for Qingqu tonight, so that everyone in the world who learns to compose music can have a model, so as not to go astray, and write the kind of words that are not words, songs are not songs, and there is no meaning to the words.

At this time, he said: "Official, there is something that the minister thinks is inappropriate. ”

Emperor Daojun said: "King Qin has something to say. ”

Zhao Ta looked at the other side and said: "The minister thinks that since the official family has made the question, and the other party has answered the question, if the minister's song completely crushes the words written by the other party, then the person who responds should no longer be qualified to continue to appear!" ”

What he said is very simple, a topic, if the other party loses, don't come out and be embarrassed, even if the other party still has stock in his heart, he is not qualified to come out and deal with him again.

Emperor Daojun was stunned when he heard this, this sound like nothing wrong, after all, Zhao Ta is alone here, and there are more than a dozen on the opposite side, even if he loses, don't play.

But he must use this song dispute to suppress the second child today, and he can't let go of all favorable opportunities, but he is a little hesitant.

Zhao Ta said again: "Although the official family is fair, let the minister also invite people, but the minister did not invite, but even so, if the lyricist on the opposite side loses and still plays, I am afraid that tonight's banquet will be laughed at by Shilin, not to mention ...... The reputation of these lyricists is also detrimental! ”

Emperor Daojun glanced at Zhou Bangyan and the others: "This ......"

Zhao Ta said with a smile: "If the official family thinks that outsiders will not look down on today's dinner, and the other lyricist doesn't care about the reputation accumulated over the years, and everyone in Zhou is not afraid of the late festival, then the minister is useless." ”

Emperor Daojun's face immediately darkened, and what the second man said was high-sounding, but he was hiding a needle in the cotton and began to fight back.

It's just that this matter is indeed as he said, it is not so glorious, and when it spreads, it has lost its identity and face.

Zhou Bangyan's face was not good-looking, he wanted to argue with Zhao Ta alone when he returned to Beijing this time, but Emperor Daojun actually called other lyricists together, he couldn't oppose it if he wanted to, and at this moment Zhao Ta pointed it out directly, which was inevitably a little embarrassing.

He is also a frivolous person, thinking that when the Shenzong Dynasty, Wang Daxiang Gong began to change the law, he regarded the world as nothing, and wrote more than 7,000 words of "Biandu Fu", which was dedicated to Emperor Shenzong.

This work that praises the prosperity and eulogizes the change of the law, Emperor Shenzong held it in his hand, and he couldn't read it after reading it for a long time, because he used a lot of ancient Chinese words in the text, and Emperor Shenzong didn't know it.

Even if Li Qingchen, the scholar who "knows how to read at the age of seven and recites thousands of words a day", was summoned and asked Li Qingchen to read aloud in the palace, Li Qingchen also did not know many words.

Subsequently, Emperor Shenzong personally met him in the political hall and appointed him as Taixuezheng, and in this way, he directly changed from a student to an official who managed Taixue.

Since then, he Zhou Bangyan has become famous, starting from the literary world, and when many lyricists are gradually getting old and passing away, he began to be famous all over the world, and in this dynasty, he is firmly in the position of the first contemporary lyricist, in the Daojun Emperor's dynasty, no one can come out of the left.

What a glory, what a scenery, and now I have to deal with a group of people to deal with a younger generation.

This is fundamentally what he Zhou Bangyan disdains, not to mention his current status as a lyricist, even if he didn't have these identities in the literary world, it would never be possible to do such a thing.

But! The dispute over lyrics and songs is a big matter, and this already involves the literary system!

So, he endured! But Zhao Ta's words made him break the defense directly, yes, Wentong is Wentong, Wentong is not his alone, but the evening festival is his own, compared with the two...... It seems that the evening festival is more important!

Before Emperor Daojun could speak at this time, Zhou Bangyan looked back at everyone, and everyone looked ashamed, and they all nodded lightly.

He said with a straight face: "Official, the ministers will follow what King Qin said." ”

Emperor Daojun glanced at Zhao Ta when he heard this, and saw that he looked calm and composed, and said angrily: "Although what King Qin said has some truth, it can't be followed by this, Zhou Aiqing should not be among them, and King Qin must make a song that is far superior to that of a lyricist!" ”

Zhao Ta nodded: "The official family is wise, and everyone in Zhou is naturally not among them." ”

Emperor Daojun said lightly: "Then let's start." After speaking, he leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes slightly.

On the other side, Zhou Bangyan said: "King Qin, please first!" ”

Zhao Ta shook his head: "There are many of you, you come first, this king has to think about it for a while!" ”

Zhou Bangyan nodded and looked behind him, many lyricists were indignant in their hearts at this moment, and they were eager to try.

This word related to autumn is actually ordinary, and it is autumn at this moment, and Zhao Ta is not the only one who expected this question, but many of them guessed it.

This kind of seasonal words, most of which are in stock, are not as good as the topics referred to by improvisation, which have to be pondered on the spot, and a few people immediately signaled that they wanted to appear.

Zhou Bangyan glanced at one of the lyricists named Chen Sidao and nodded.

Chen Sidao immediately stood up and came to the field, and saluted Emperor Daojun: "Official, the minister is ugly." ”

He is an official of the five grades, and the number of etiquette is naturally sufficient, and he was polite to Zhao Ta, Wang Huang and others, and then filled in the words Gui Zhixiang.

The word brand cinnamon sticks are very appropriate, and the double tone is one hundred and one words.

Guizhixiang is also known as the sparse curtain light moon, probably based on Wang Anshi's Jinling nostalgia as the main body, but there are several variants, and this Chen Sidao fills in the main body.

He had a draft, so he asked the musician next to him to tune it directly, and then recited it.

It is a poem of the autumn heart, seeing the sadness of the autumn and recalling the past, and thinking about the future, which depicts the scene exquisitely and neatly and rigorously.

After the words, everyone couldn't help but applaud, and Emperor Daojun also nodded slightly.

Zhao Ta sneered and said: "One hundred and one words of Guizhixiang, Vice Chen has been filling in the words for many years, don't you think that the more words, the better?" ”

Chen Sidao is a member of the Taifu Temple, and the member of the outside Lang is from the five products, referred to as the outer lang or the outside of the staff, commonly known as the vice lang.

He frowned when he heard Zhao Tan's words, the number of words in this cinnamon stick is actually not much, but it is the most moderate kind.

There are more words than Xi Jiangyue, Yujiaao, etc., and compared with the big names like Qi's and Liuzhou Getou, it has to be reduced a lot.

So this is clearly King Qin's deliberate fault, and Nian Nujiao is also these words, and there are a lot of people who do it, and I haven't heard any of them say too many words.

He was about to refute, but he heard Zhao Ta say again: "If there are too many words, forget it, the content is vague, there is nothing to say, there is no disease moaning throughout the text, and it is a failure!" ”

"Ahh When Chen Sidao heard this, the blood gushed upward, and his head was dizzy.

When the emperor is here, the deputy prime minister, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the top level of the scholars of the Great Song Dynasty, every word can affect countless storms and affect the movement of the world.

Most of the famous artists in the Great Song Dynasty also came, at least almost all of them in the Gyeonggi region were present, all watching, King Qin is one of the leaders of the literary world, if this sentence of "failure" spreads, where will he still have the face to see people? His reputation as a scholar must have been greatly damaged, that is...... The name behind him will also be affected.

He looked at Zhao Ta, his face turned pale: "His Royal Highness King Qin, you ......"

Zhao Taxin said who made you the first to stand up, you can't blame me, besides, this word is really average, not a good work.

Zhou Bangyan couldn't help but say at this time: "King Qin belittles this poem so much, I don't know what is the best work?" ”

Zhao Ta slowly stood up, walked to the ground with his hands in his hands, and said with a smile: "Taking Ji Qiu as the topic, why use more than 100 words, a small order is enough." ”

When Chen Sidao heard this, he said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Ling? I don't believe that King Qin's simple song can crush the words of the lower officials! ”

Zhao Ta glanced at him and said with a smile: "Originally, I didn't believe it, after all, Xiao Ling didn't say much, and some of them were still monotonous, and they were weak in momentum, but I listened to Chen Vicelang's words, but I felt that Xiao Ling was enough!" ”

Chen Sidao took two steps back, and a little eunuch next to him hurriedly supported him: "Xia Guan still doesn't believe it, Xia Guan doesn't believe it!" ”

Zhao Ta said: "Yesterday I was idle, feeling sad in autumn, and everything was gradually grateful, so I made a song brand to play, which is a small brand." ”

For the literati, the original word card is not uncommon, Liu Yong's words, many brands are self-created, especially the word "Qi's", which can be called the second most words since the word, a rhyme is divided into three paragraphs, enough to have 212 words.

And word cards like Yulin Ling, Wanghai Tide, Butterfly Love Flower, and Fascinating God Citation were also created by Liu Yong, not inherited from the Jin and Tang Dynasties.

It is not uncommon for lyricists to create their own brands, Zhou Bangyan also has his own word cards, Li Qingzhao also has them, everyone has the ability to create original brands, but the music and rhyme involved in a word card are extremely complex, and they are not intended to be created at will.

I heard that Zhao Ta made a music card, everyone present was not surprised, with Zhao Ta's talent, if there were not a few self-made brands, it would be strange.

It's just that...... Said that I was idle yesterday and wanted to make a brand, and I can take it out and fill in the music today, which must be serious?

Even if Liu Yongtian is a genius, the prime minister in the word, and he has made a lot of word cards in his life, he has never heard of it being made in one day, right?

Everyone looked at each other, wasn't the brand that was made on this day used to humiliate the lyricists present?

Emperor Daojun's face was a little unhappy: "King Qin, what brand did you make?" ”

Zhao Ta said: "Back to the official's house, the minister remembered to go to Longyou to raise horses, and sighed that the west is desolate, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the land is wide and the people are small, and it is more lonely and ownerless in autumn, so I feel that I made this card." ”

"The name of this card is ......" He paused.

"It's called Saishangqiu, also known as Tianjingsha!"

"This small order is stuffed in autumn, Duyun, five sentences, a total of twenty-eight words!"

Plugged in autumn? Duyi? Only twenty-eight words in five sentences?

Emperor Daojun frowned, and everyone below also had different expressions.

The number of words is too little, and it is monotonous, only twenty-eight words, if it is a single mood, it hurts the past and the present, but it is reluctant.

It's just that the name of this card is plugged in autumn, and there must be a description of the scenery, not to mention the word plugged on, which is also to deliver the mood.

Twenty-eight words, is it really enough?

Emperor Daojun took a deep breath, this second child is really still the same as before, and he got something that seems heroic and rough, but in fact it is disastrous.

It's just that he is not good at writing scenes, and the word card created on this day is only twenty-eight words, and I am afraid it is difficult to fill it in.

Emperor Daojun felt that it was impossible no matter how he thought about it, so he couldn't help but shake his head secretly.

Zhou Bangyan looked even more puzzled, and then smiled slightly.

Many of the lyricists behind him were like him, and after being surprised, they couldn't help but laugh a little.

Over there, Bai Shizhong's knowledge is good, Wang Hao and Cai You's eyes asked, Bai Shizhong shook his head without a trace, and the two of them smiled.

Chen Sidao looked at Zhao Ta with wide eyes at this time: "King Qin...... Is it to fill this plug last autumn? ”

Zhao Ta nodded and said, "Exactly, does Vice Lang Chen have something to say?" ”

Chen Sidao shook his head, relieved in his heart, feeling that he was too nervous just now, even if this twenty-eight-character small order can really surpass what he made, but if he wants to reach the level of crushing, I am afraid that it is a fool's dream.

His face recovered a little, his legs and feet were steady, and he pushed away the little eunuch who was supporting him next to him, and smiled: "Please also ask King Qin to narrate the song, and the lower officials will listen to it!" ”

Zhao Ta smiled, stretched out his hand to summon the musician, delivered a sheet of music, and tried it over there after a while, Zhao Ta nodded: "Start the tune and plug the autumn!" ”

The sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and a bleak and lonely music suddenly filled the entire hall, instantly pulling everyone into a sad and lonely mood.

Zhao Ta took a few steps towards the outside of the hall with his hand, and then slowly spoke:

Dead vines and old trees,

small bridges and flowing waters,

Ancient road west wind thin horse.

Sunset

The heartbroken man is at the end of the world.

……

Twenty-eight words of stuffed autumn Xiaoling, with the sound of lonely and lonely songs, slowly fell.

The expressions of everyone in the hall changed in an instant, and even the little eunuch who was waiting to pour wine stopped moving, as if falling into a peculiar artistic conception, cold and absurd, alienated and lonely.

A picture of the late autumn sunset, the world is dim and lonely, depressed and tired, and the picture is unfolded in front of everyone.

There is no sound in the hall, and they have entered the lonely artistic conception, I don't know what the song is in the past, and I heard the song for the first time now.

After a long time, there was a soft "click", which broke the peace in the hall.

The wine jug in the hand of the little eunuch fell to the ground, he did not move, it was not that he couldn't hold the pot, but he really listened to this song, and thought of his hometown, not far in front of his house, there was a small bridge and flowing water, and under the sunset, there were old trees and crows in the dusk wild.

Everyone was pulled back by this sound, Zhou Bangyan's body trembled, the words of this song were not carved in any way, ordinary and ordinary, completely different from his exquisite and luxurious, looking like gold and jade whitewashed words, but it seemed to have a magic force, directly pulling people into the warp realm, and they couldn't extricate themselves for a long time.

"Okay, that's great......" I don't know who muttered quietly, and then more and more voices gradually came out of the hall.

The expressions of those lyricists kept changing, most of them were blank in their eyes, their lips trembled slightly, they wanted to say something but couldn't say it, they wanted to admire but didn't dare to speak, and they felt uncomfortable in their hearts as if they were about to suffocate.

Chen Sidao stood aside, the whole person seemed to be stupid, the twenty-eight-character tune, the words used are simple and ordinary, but it is these simple and ordinary words, combined together, directly crushing his words to smash.

No, it was to crush all the words in his life, and everything he wrote in his life was not as good as this twenty-eight-character song, and he lost, and under this song, not only did he lose today's competition, but he also lost all of it before and in the future.

He stumbled back to his seat, sat down dumbfounded, and then groped, grabbed the flask, and poured it down his throat......

Ahead, Emperor Daojun's voice shouted excitedly: "Come on, hurry up and put pen and ink, I want to draw the artistic conception in this song!" ”
