Chapter 3: The Rise of the Wind and Clouds, the Quest for Immortals Section 132: Look at the present day
Everyone present stood up. As soon as the scholar who had spoken sat down, he commanded. Get everyone in the room to stand.
"Everybody pay attention to the meter. After a while, after the Confucius Academy came, everyone should call themselves students! Say hello to the scholars!" Yan Minghan immediately admonished after seeing the people in the audience stand up. He didn't expect that Kong Zhangyuan would come to participate in the banquet after the examination this time.
But when he saw Li Chengjie, he almost understood in his heart. This Confucius Courtyard should also come to meet the juniors.
Everyone stood and respectfully waited for the arrival of Kong Xueli.
In just a few breaths, a white-haired old man walked over from the Vast Heavenly Gate. Wrapped in a pure white robe and holding a book in his hand, the old man looked at it as he walked. Only at the bend did I look up slightly to see the road.
At this time, Li Chengjie saw clearly that although the hair of the person who came over was already pale, there was no trace of twilight on this face. It's just that there is a little bit of surrounding around the corner of his eyes and forehead, and his eyes are shining, and his expression is not much worse than that of a young man.
Kong Xueli walked step by step, until he reached his seat! Carefully looked at the people present.
"Old man, Confucius Xueli, I am happy with you today, you don't need to be restrained at the banquet, sit down. Kong Xueli said very kindly. There is so much love in these words.
"The student asks the teacher!" the six people standing next to Kong Xueli took the lead in asking. Then he bowed deeply very respectfully, and performed a very standard salute to the teacher.
All the students in the audience also learned the movements of the six people, and shouted in unison, "The students ask the teacher!" and bowed deeply, and the person in front of him was Kong Xueli, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, a member of the first rank in the court, the head of the Hanlin Academy! It can be said that he is the teacher of all the students in the world!
"Shi An. Of course, Kong Xueli was more polite than the people present, first bowing politely, then softly replying, and finally sitting down slowly. Teachers and students are at the same table, and the teacher does not sit, how can students sit down?
The sixth bachelor didn't get up slightly until he saw Kong Xueli sit down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, my name, Wang Jie, I am glad to meet you!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, my name, I am glad to be cold!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, my name, Reed, I am glad to meet!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, my name, Liu Zongxuan, I am glad to meet you!"
"Students, my name, Li Ran, fortunately!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, my name, Guo Haokun, I am glad to meet!"
Each of the six scholars announced their names and sat down slowly.
"I've seen the six bachelors of Hanlin!" Sun Kai and Liu Yang took the lead and led the students to say. These are the processes of the banquet. That is, you have to go through a "rite" process.
The six scholars nodded.
All the talents in the audience sat down.
"Open the table!" Kong Xueli looked at everyone in the audience with satisfaction and said with a smile.
With Kong Xueli's order, this banquet can be regarded as the beginning.
"All the tributes who have passed the examination, please raise your glass!" Kong Xueli said softly.
Li Chengjie and everyone sat up straight, and when they heard the words of Confucius Xueli, everyone raised their glasses.
"Count the romantic figures, but also look at the present dynasty! You have to make persistent efforts, I hope that you can show your talents in the palace test, and do your part for the country and the people. Kong Xueli was like an elder looking at a junior, and the kindness in his words made Li Chengjie feel very warm.
"Thank you, teacher. These thirty tributes also understood that at this time, they clinked glasses with Kong Xueli in the air and drank down.
Kong Xueli is also a lover of wine, although he is old, he is also very greedy for cups. A full glass of wine is drunk in one gulp.
Put down the cup in your hand and fill it again. said, "Don't be discouraged by all the students who are not on the list, the literati students are a family, and no one in the world knows you." Let's have a drink too. Kong Xueli said happily again.
The rest of the audience also raised their glasses and drank the wine in the cup with Kong Xueli.
"Okay, let's move our chopsticks. Kong Xueli didn't regard himself as a scholar at all, he was just the head of the Hanlin Academy, and the mood at this time was like watching the students graduate from the Hanlin Academy, drinking and drinking together.
Xu Yu looked at Kong Xueli and said softly to Li Chengjie, "Kong Zhangyuan is worthy of being the first person in the world to be a scholar." Such a bearing really makes me feel happy and convinced. ”
"Yes, such an old gentleman still feels so energetic. Approachable and pleasant. It's really a blessing for Hanlin. Mu Youzhi also sighed.
"There is poetry and books in the belly. But that's right. Li Chengjie also praised. Looking at Kong Xueli's demeanor, he vaguely compared Kong Xueli with his master Yuanxin, and the two were on par in Li Chengjie's heart.
It is also the first time that Li Chengjie feels that there are still people in this world who can "sit on an equal footing" with his master in his heart. For this old gentleman, Li Chengjie also has countless good feelings in his heart.
The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have five flavors!
The bachelor named Wang Jie got up, and said in a hearty voice, "All the gentlemen are well-educated people, how can there be no poetry for such an elegant feast? Why don't we play a game of poetry solitaire, what do you think?"
There was no echo in the audience, but everyone nodded, waiting for Master Wang to continue.
"That's it, I'll start with it, and the six of us will give you a demonstration, and then the Huiyuan of this exam will take everyone to play this game. The student hadn't spoken for a minute, and he consciously drank three glasses and changed to the next person. It can be a poem in a book, or you can write a poem on the spot!" Wang Jie said with a smile.
Then Wang Jie glanced at Yan Minghan, and said gracefully, "Under the east fence of picking chrysanthemums, I can see Nanshan leisurely." Bachelor of Words, please. ”
"Haha, okay, Mr. Wang's last sentence ends with the word mountain, then I can start with the word mountain at the beginning of this poem. The same word is better. Yan Minghan explained.
"Master Wang, you can listen well, I'll take it, it rained in the mountains overnight, and the trees were full of springs. Yan Minghan said with a smile, and picked it up very easily.
"Master Lu, please. Yan Minghan looked at the reeds and said.
"Okay, then I'll take it, the sound of the spring swallows the dangerous stone, and the sun is cold and green. Mr. Liu, please. ”
"The pine wind blows the belt, and the mountain and the moon shine on the piano. ”
"The sound of the piano filled the room, and the books filled the bedside. ”
"There is a bun on his head, and a bright moon pearl in his ears.
After the six bachelors demonstrated to the students, they raised their glasses and drank a glass together. Kong Xueli was also very happy to hear it, and drank several cups by himself. The smile on his face grew.
"Li Huiyuan, you can get started. But we have to think about it and get up again! We don't get drunk today! It's too easy to get out. Yan Minghan drank a lot of wine at this time, raised his wine glass, and signaled to Li Chengjie.
Li Chengjie also raised his wine glass and touched Yan Minghan from afar. He looked at the glass in his hand, sipping the liquor in his throat. Li Chengjie also said, "The ancient sages were all lonely, and only the drinker left his name." "It goes well with the current scene.
Mu Youzhi and Xu Yue glanced at each other, and Xu Yu said, "Senior Brother Mu, why don't you come first." ”
Everyone in the field also put down the chopsticks in their hands at this time, listened quietly, and thought positively in their minds, to see if it was themselves, what would they take?
"Okay, then I'll do it first. If you are famous and written, you should live a rest. Mu Youzhi thought for more than ten seconds and said excitedly.
"Haha, Senior Brother Mu is going to give Xu a problem!" Xu Promise couldn't think of for a while, what poems began with Xiu, when he was about to serve a cup. It suddenly occurred to him that in addition to the poems in the book, he could also compose his own poems.
So she put down the cup in her hand, Ying Ying said with a smile, "Hugh said that the merits and demerits are right and wrong, and future generations will judge!"
After the promise was finished, it also raised the game to a higher level.
The rest of the game is not answered by the verses in the book.
Li Chengjie raised his head and said sage, Mu Youzhi immediately took over a credit. And the promise is even more remarkable, and it directly leads to a thousand years.
This next verse solitaire, most of them were said by students to pull a rainbow!
First of all, he talked about the sages of the past, and then he began to talk about the celebrities of today! In the end, he began to sing the praises everywhere about His Majesty's eloquence and strategy, his all-round ability in civil and military affairs, his combination of leniency and severity, his knowledge of people and his duties, and his acceptance of advice.
This tone is so high.,How to play the game.,How good to say.。
By the end, the audience burst into laughter.
Raise your glasses and drink to your heart's content!
"No matter how happy the feast is, there will be a time to disperse!"
Outside the venue, the bells rang three times, the drums sounded five, the flute sounded, and the piano sounded.
It's a parting song!
It's time to wrap up...
