Chapter 28: The Gentleman is Frank

"I'm coming!"

A sonorous voice resounded in the temple.

When they looked up, they saw a young man in plain clothes standing up.

"It's Yang Sheng of the Hanlin Academy."

"This person has always been upright and not afraid of power, I don't know what kind of poetry he will make today."

Everyone was talking.

Yang Sheng had already raised his wine glass, drank it all, and recited with emotion:

"I have been reading the law for 20 years, and there is a blue sky on the head of the black yarn.

The boy wants to paint Lingyan Pavilion, and his first fame is not to love money. ”

From a literary point of view alone, this hymn is only decent.

But considering the character of the author, it can also be called a masterpiece.

After a burst of cheers.

A few more people stood up, and the poems they wrote were not satisfactory, and there was still a certain gap between them and the best works.

Yuan Zhe looked around and saw that everyone was bowing their heads and thinking, and suddenly raised his voice and said: "Today's ability to enjoy the delicacies and wines is all due to the gift of the prince, how can we only care about our own happiness and ignore the prince." ”

Speaking of this, he stood up, looked at Ren Pingsheng with a smile, raised his glass and said: "I salute the prince with a glass of wine, throw bricks and lead jade, and ask the prince to write a poem!" ”

After speaking, he drank all the wine in the cup, and said leisurely: "The young man is only quiet, and he doesn't care about everything." There is no long-term strategy for self-care, and the empty knowledge returns to the old forest. ”

It means that although he has youthful ambition, he loves to be quiet, does not care about everything in the world, thinks that he has no ability, and just wants to return to his hometown......

Read it out.

There was a brief silence in the hall.

If the first sentence of this poem is only quiet in old age, it will have a sense of transcendence, although it does not fit the title, but it can be called a masterpiece.

But when you change to a young man, you can only be quiet, and listening to it always gives people a feeling of having no ambitions and stealing peace.

Especially the lack of self-care in the back, it makes people feel that this person is mediocre and useless, and it is strange......"

"What's so strange? Yuan Zhe wrote this poem, not to express his emotions. ”

"Then why did he write this poem?"

"Think about it, who is this banquet for?"

"You mean, Yuan Zhe is satirizing the prince of Zhenbei?"

Everyone whispered for a while, and soon realized.

Yuan Zhe used this poem to satirize the mediocrity and uselessness of the prince of Zhenbei, and he was reluctant to steal peace.

"Yuan Zhe and the prince of Zhenbei have never met, why do you want to write poems to provoke?"

"Yuan Zhe is the son-in-law of Lord Sun Ying, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Lord Sun has always advocated cutting the domain, and has written several times to impeach the three major feudal kings, and he should do this to please his own Taishan."

"I heard that the prince of Zhenbei is a humble gentleman, I don't know how he will react in the face of provocation."

Everyone's eyes swept back and forth on Yuan Zhe and Ren Pingsheng's bodies, looking like they were not afraid of big things.

After the case.

Ren Pingsheng picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said lightly: "I'm not good at poetry." ”

After speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and continued to pick up the dishes, without looking at Yuan Zhe from beginning to end, as if he disdained him.

Seeing that he ignored the irony in the poem lightly, everyone was slightly stunned, thinking: "That's it? What a couple of scolding him! ”

Of course, there are also people who are quite amazed by Ren Pingsheng's reaction.

For example, Yang Sheng, the first poet, sighed: "The gentleman is frank, the villain is a relative, and the son of the world is indeed as rumored to be, with the style of an ancient gentleman!" ”

The gentleman refers to Ren Pingsheng.

It goes without saying who the villain refers to.

His voice was not loud or small, and many people in the hall heard it, and their faces showed a look of approval.

Although they also have a lot of complaints about many of the actions of the king of Zhenbei.

But how to deal with the vassal king is a matter for His Majesty and the imperial court.

The son of the world has no grievances with them, so why ridicule others?

When Yuan Zhe did this, he inevitably looked a little small.

Not far away.

Yuan Jun also heard Yang Sheng's words, became annoyed and angry, and glared at him.

He really wanted to open his mouth to ridicule Yang Sheng, as the youngest Jinshi in the past hundred years, he should have made steady progress when he entered the Hanlin Academy.

As a result, after so many years, he has stood still, and he is still a Jishi.

After thinking about it, in front of everyone, he really did this, wouldn't it be true that he was a relative of the villain?

"It's just a stunned young man who is dead studying, let you go today, and see how I handle you in the future!"

Yuan Zhe took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, looked at Ren Pingsheng, and his smile was still the same: "It's me Meng Lang, you shouldn't bother the world." ”

After saying that, he sat down.

Liu Yutong, the king of Jin, didn't expect Yuan Zhe's provocation to be resolved so easily, raised his eyebrows, and sighed in his heart: "I can calm down." ”

Opposite side.

Ren Pingsheng eats vegetables by himself, still goes his own way, doesn't care about everyone's eyes, and ignores whispers.

The hall was quiet for a while, and then it became lively again.

I don't know who proposed it, everyone played the Flying Flower Order.

Next to Ren Pingsheng sat two princes and a princess.

The princess was about six or seven years old.

Both princes were thirteen or fourteen years old.

Seeing everyone playing Takeoff Flower Order, they were all eager to try.

While waiting, a prince seemed to think of something, and raised his voice: "Where did Liu Yunmeng go, she is not here, who will give this prince the bottom!" ”

It was Liu Shuo, the seventh prince, who spoke, because he was favored by his maternal grandfather Dingguogong, and he developed an arrogant and domineering personality since he was a child.

He was taught several times by Princess Chang'an and Princess Yunhe, who were a few years older than him, but he still did not repent.

"It's the Seven Princes again."

Everyone looked at him, their brows furrowed slightly.

He is the prince, and his maternal grandfather is the Duke of Dingguo.

Everyone was dissatisfied with him and had nothing to do, so they could only sigh in their hearts.

"Seventh Prince, Yun and Princess Yun have something to do, so I'll come later." The eunuch replied in a whisper.

"What is more important than attending the banquet of Her Royal Highness!"

A thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy is in a rebellious period.

Seeing that the two princesses who had been bullying themselves were not there.

raised his eyebrows and raised his voice.

The eunuch hurriedly replied: "I heard that I copied an important book in the library pavilion......"

"Her elm head, no matter how many books she copied, it was useless."

The Seventh Prince remembered the days when he was smashed on the head by Liu Yunmeng with a book, gritted his teeth, and had no good air.

The eunuch wiped his sweat and did not dare to speak.

This time.

King Jin, who was sitting opposite, slowly spoke: "Xiao Qi, you are noisy there, how can others recite poems?" ”

When the Seventh Prince heard this, he pouted and replied, "I know." He fell silent.

"Sister-in-law copying books in the library library? Is it for me? ”

Ren Pingsheng was still glad that he hadn't met his sister-in-law just now, but when he heard this, his mood suddenly became complicated.

The character of the sister-in-law, it is impossible to sink down to read, at this time I went to the library pavilion, except to help him transcribe "Beixuan Bi Tan", there is no other possibility.

At the end of the day, she's still a child.

If you don't come to the banquet, it's rare to copy the book first.

How to say it, there is a little touch.

Ren Pingsheng thought so, and heard the voice of the Seventh Prince on the side at the adjacent table that could only be heard:

"I really hope that Liu Yunmeng, that slut, like Liu Ruyan, will be abolished by the demon clan!"

He didn't seem to be angry when he said this, and gritted his teeth and said: "If you abolish your cultivation and disfigure your appearance, you should give them a thousand cuts!" ”

When he spoke, he kept looking at the other prince, and he didn't notice that there was Ren Pingsheng next to him.

"Seventh brother, don't say that, the imperial sister is sometimes very good to us." The other prince whispered.

"What a fart!"

The seventh prince gritted his teeth, and wanted to say something, but before he could speak, he suddenly saw Ren Pingsheng on the side standing up, walking to him, and stopping.

"You're in the way of this prince."

The Seventh Prince raised his eyes to look at him, his brows furrowed slightly, and his tone was not good.
