Chapter 9 Four Friends Commentary
Zhang Jujin is a writer, his position is neither high nor low, but he has made a wide range of friends and many friends, many of whom are illustrious, and there are also long-sleeved dancers, all of whom are well-informed, and the three people invited by him are the best among them.
"Brother Lu, Brother Zhu, Brother Tao, please. ”
The three people who were invited, one named Lu Shen, dressed as a middle-aged scribe, one named Zhu Li, with a high crown and a broad belt, and the other named Tao Jing, dressed like ordinary people.
All three have their own origins.
Lu Shen is from the Lu family of Wu County, and Zhu Li is from the Zhu family of Wu County, both of which have a deep family background, and they are also the reason why they can be good friends with Zhang Ju.
Lu, Zhu, Gu, Zhang, since the beginning of the Eastern Wu is the top family in Jiangdong, hundreds of years of dynasties have been replaced, the same is still prominent, even if there are signs of decline like the Zhang family, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, in the court, the government and the opposition, the people, there is still a huge influence, and between the four families, many years of marriage, even if it is not called the same breath, there are many closeness to each other.
And Tao Jing is not an ordinary portal, the ancestor is the Eastern Jin Dynasty famous general Changsha County Gong Tao Kan, family history, now the career starts, the intention to get closer to several others, is to go more often.
Zhang Ju has the heart to revitalize the family business, and it is not surprising that he has made friends with the three of them.
He summoned the three of them over, just to use their connections and knowledge to find out the truth and falsehood of what Chen's mother said.
It's just that the atmosphere of the Southern Dynasty dictates that he can't get straight to the point as soon as he comes up, and he wants to talk about the Tao first, or say some wind and snow, so the three of them arrived, and the first step was to chat.
This chatted and chatted, and talked about the many legendary articles of tea shops in Jiankang City, Zhang Juying and two sentences, estimated that the time was almost up, and then chatted I don't know when it will be a head, so I plan to get into the main topic.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Li suddenly said to Zhang Ju: "Speaking of legendary literary songs, then I have to talk about your cousin, in the past, I said that he was extremely boring, I was wrong, and I have to sue you." ”
Zhang Ju was surprised and asked, "Which cousin of mine is Brother Zhu talking about?"
Zhu Li laughed and pointed in a direction.
Zhang Ju said: "Could it be the Marquis of Linru County?"
Zhu Li smiled: "Yes, when I just came, I listened to his literary song first, and then I didn't enjoy it very much, so I asked for the text again, and I read it again on the way, it was really interesting, it was an eye-opener!"
"Wenqu text?" Zhang Ju looked surprised.
"You don't know?" Zhu Li first glanced at Zhang Ju, then at the other two, and saw that the three of them all looked surprised, "You don't know?"
"I don't know," Zhang Ju's heart moved, remembering the situation on the day he saw Zhou Youzi, "Please also ask Brother Zhu to speak clearly." ”
"Hey!" Zhu Li laughed more and more cheerfully, "If you don't know, hurry up and read it, if I expect it to be correct, the "Painted Skin" he wrote, and in a short time, it will be popular and healthy, if you don't know, it will be difficult to integrate with others after a while! ”
"Painted skin?"
Zhang Ju and the other two looked at each other.
Lu Shen said bluntly: "You say it is the work of the Marquis of Linru County? ”
"Lu Wei had a literary name in the past?" Zhu Li blinked, "I heard people say that he needs to accumulate fame because of his cultivation, so that he can show his true talent and learning, it can be said that he has not been a hitter for three years, and he is a model of a blockbuster, but the Marquis of Linru County will not be able to?"
Listening to the words of the two, Tao Jinghu laughed loudly.
When asked why, he said: "Brother Zhu is so defending, Brother Lu is full of doubts, not to mention that Brother Zhang is close to him, but he doesn't know it, isn't it interesting?
"That's exactly how it should be!" Zhu Li couldn't wait, beckoned, and the attendant outside the door walked in, "Go and bring the article in the car, I will enjoy it with a few friends, it is in the box I am traveling, handle it gently, don't damage it, I will read it again at night." ”
But the servant said, "Your lord, you forgot, you had people send things home. ”
Zhu Li patted his head and said with a smile: "I forgot, I forgot, I'm afraid of damage, let people send it away, it's okay, this place is not far from the clarification building, go there and ask for a copy, or it won't be long, you go and go back quickly." ”
"Whoa!"
Seeing this, Zhang Ju couldn't help but be anxious, although he was curious, but he didn't think that his cousin was really literate, not to mention that it was a serious matter to summon people over, so he didn't want to make extraneous trouble!
It's just that seeing that the other three were full of interest, Zhang Ju was not good at openly defeating him, so he had to press his mind first, thinking of finding an opportunity to end the chat, and then get to the point.
Soon, the servant of the Zhu family walked in with an article in his hand.
Zhang Ju glanced at it and saw that the ink on the paper was still fresh, and it should have been newly transcribed, so he couldn't help but be surprised.
It must be known that there are good articles in Jiankang City, and there are people who are familiar with the content on the street and in the tea shops who specialize in transcribing them, but those are all sought-after articles, such as the new work of the Lu family's talents, how can their own cousins also enjoy such treatment......?
For a moment, Zhang Ju was shocked.
On that day, Chen made a mistake, don't say that Chen's mother despises it, even Zhang Ju doesn't think that he can really do it, but the situation in front of him is unexpected.
When the "Painted Skin" was placed in front of him, several people watched it together, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.
The four people watched with different expressions.
"It's kind of interesting. ”
"Interesting! Interesting!"
"Wonderful!"
"Painted Skin" is a short story, the content of the story is not complicated, to the effect that an evil ghost disguised as a beautiful woman by painting skin, deceived the scholar, was recognized by the Taoist priest, and finally tossed, the evil ghost appeared, and was executed, the scholar first died, and finally relied on the help of his wife, and came back from the dead.
Many of them are flipped, concise and to the point, and it doesn't take long to read one.
Soon, Zhang Ju's three friends breathed a sigh of relief and sat down again, looking more satisfied than before.
"How?" Zhu Li swept over a few people and asked with a smile.
Tao Jingdao: "Interesting, twists and turns! The whole article is progressive, suspense is repeated, look at the front, I thought that Wang Sheng got the help of the Taoist priest, should be able to get rid of the disaster, but unexpectedly he was killed, and there are changes later, his wife can endure humiliation, so that the king lives and dies and comes back to life, which is amazing, and what is even more rare is that the words are concise and concise, quite meaningful, this color word is a knife on the head, and I am honest. ”
Zhu Li looked at the other two again: "What do you two think?"
Lu Shen said: "Brother Tao said that the words are concise, and I think it is true that this painting is a text, and I will not pay attention to the literary style when I look at it roughly, but it is because the story is wonderful, and the viewer's heart is concerned about the past and the future, but after reading it, you will find that the sentences are very extraordinary, often a word, a word has a deep meaning, under the taste, there are echoes, it can be called a 'practice' word!"
"It's the same as what I saw!" Zhu Li was delighted when he heard this, "Brother Tao said that the story is wonderful, you say that the words are fluent, and I will also talk about one, that is, the subtlety of the characters in this article. ”
The other two agreed: "Exactly, exactly." ”
Lu Shen said: "The language is concise, the characters are exquisite, the story is interesting, and it is rare to write an article, although there is no poetry, but there is a bit of artistic conception." ”
"You also found out!" Zhu Li immediately interjected, as if he loved and respected this article very much, "I also feel the same way, and I scrutinize it carefully, it is really because the sentences of this article are obscure, subtle, and implicitly fit the artistic conception of the meaning of the poem, so it is like this!"
When the other two heard this, they nodded yes, and then read the article, becoming more and more interested.
However, as they spoke, they found something and couldn't help but be secretly strange, and finally Zhu Li took the initiative to mention: "Brother Zhang, you are the closest to the Marquis of Linru County, how do you evaluate this article?"
"Yes!" Lu Shen also said: "It's better to pick a time and invite him over to talk about literature and poetry together!"
Zhang Juqiang laughed, quite uncomfortable, and hurriedly said: "I didn't know about the ability of the prince before, but I learned from Brother Zhu's mouth, after reading this article, I have a similar opinion to the kings, and the next time we meet, I will definitely ask him when he will drink with us!"
"Please!" Zhu Li's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait, "The talk of gods and ghosts is the favorite thing in the streets and alleys, and after a long time, it will be known all over the city and sought after by everyone! ”
Zhang Ju nodded perfunctorily, becoming more and more restless.
Vaguely, I felt as if there was some thought in my chest, and it was difficult to relax.
A few people in the room didn't notice Zhang Ju's strange appearance, thinking that he was also passionate about literature, so the more he talked, the more excited he became.
The sun was sinking in the west, the light in the room was slowly dimming, and the shadows of several people on the ground trembled faintly.
Especially Zhang Ju's shadow actually writhed a few times on its own.
