Let’s talk about Liaozhai at the beginning, I scared all the fans on the Internet to death

Chapter 231 The most talented woman of all time, Li Qingzhao. (Please subscribe)

"Well, Teacher Jiang Ning, can you tell us about a historical figure that will make us feel better?"

Looking at Jiang Ning's painting of Xin Qiji, many fans still felt a little stuffy in their chests and couldn't express themselves for a while.

For this.

Jiang Ning also knew.

Different from Su Shi.

Although Su Shi has not been reused, he has been attacked.

But it's more of a personal thing for him.

But Xin Qiji was different.

Xin Qiji was not reused, but he was connected with the country.

Especially seeing such a general turned into a literary man, it is impossible not to feel heartbroken.

"Yes, there is."

Jiang Ning understood everyone's mood.

If you just look at the lyrics and don’t study them in depth.

Then Xin Qiji's poems are naturally very good.

But once you study it in depth.

This is good, it is based on the rise and fall of the country.

"Teacher Jiang Ning, hurry up and tell me."

"Then let me talk about one of the most famous female poets in the Song Dynasty."

"The Song Dynasty is the most famous."

"Yes, not only is the Song Dynasty the most famous, she is also the most talented woman throughout the ages."

"The most talented woman of all time?"

Everyone was stunned: "Teacher Jiang Ning, is this title too exaggerated?"

Throughout thousands of years of Chinese history.

I don’t know how many talented women have appeared in ancient and modern times.

But when it comes to being number one throughout the ages, there really isn’t one.

Don't call her a talented woman.

Even if he is a talented person, no one dares to call him the most talented person in the history.

This most talented woman of all time is really exaggerated.

But Jiang Ning smiled: "Whether it is an exaggeration or not, everyone will know when the time comes."

Speaking of talents, there really is no most talented person in history.

Or there is, and it's very controversial.

But let’s talk about talented women.

There really is one.

Then this person is Li Qingzhao.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Ning said: "This woman's name is Li Qingzhao, and her nickname is Yi'an Jushi. She and Xin Qiji are fellow villagers, both from Jinan. Because Xin Qiji later changed his name to You'an, she and Xin Qiji were also called Jinan Er'an. "

"Hey, Teacher Jiang Ning, if you introduce me like this, this Li Qingzhao is really not simple."

Although everyone does not know Li Qingzhao’s life for the time being.

but.

A person who can be compared with Xin Qiji is definitely not simple.

"It's really not simple."

Jiang Ning nodded: "Li Qingzhao was born into a famous family. Her father's name is Li Gefei. Who is Li Gefei? He is a disciple of Su Shi and one of the four scholars of the Su family. Her grandfather is called Wang Gui, who was the prime minister of the Renzong, Yingzong, and Shenzong periods. , can be said to be a veteran of the imperial court. And this prime minister gave birth to two granddaughters. The eldest daughter married Cai Jing, and the younger daughter married Qin Hui. Therefore, Cai Jing was Li Qingzhao’s cousin-in-law, and Qin Hui was Li Qingzhao’s cousin. Brother-in-law.”

"Li Qingzhao's teacher is called Chao Buzhi. He is also a disciple of Su Shi and one of the four scholars of the Su family. Li Qingzhao's husband is called Zhao Mingcheng. Zhao Mingcheng is a descendant of the royal family. His father Zhao Tingzhi is also the prime minister of the Northern Song Dynasty. In other words, Li Qingzhao's My father-in-law is also the prime minister. By the way, he also has a cousin named Zhang Zeduan. Yes, it is Zhang Zeduan who painted the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival"."

"I go……"

It doesn't matter if you don't know who Li Qingzhao is.

but.

When Li Qingzhao's life experience was mentioned, everyone was stunned.

Grandpa and father-in-law are both prime ministers.

Both the teacher and the father were students of Su Shi.

At the same time, my husband is a descendant of the imperial family, which is a very wealthy family.

There are also cousin-in-law, cousin-in-law, cousin... all of them are well-known figures.

"Everyone, it's not just that. Li Qingzhao also has a grandfather named Wang Gongchen."

"Teacher Jiang Ning, this isn't right. Grandpa has more than one?"

"Yes."

Jiang Ning nodded: "Li Qingzhao's biological mother died when she was 1 year old, so she was brought up by her stepmother. And this stepmother is Wang Gongchen's granddaughter. And who is Wang Gongchen? Everyone doesn't know It doesn't matter, everyone just needs to remember that this Wang Gongchen is also a high-ranking official and was born in the top . In addition, Wang Gongchen also has a brother-in-law, his name is Ouyang Xiu, and Ouyang Xiu has a disciple named Su Dongpo. So..."

This goes around.

Everyone was confused again.

"Mom, this is not a wealthy family. This is a wealthy family among wealthy families."

"Yes, not only did he come from a high-ranking family, but he was also related to a number of great writers."

"It's just that Cai Jing and Qin Hui have a bad reputation as traitors."

"Whether they are stinky or not, my cousin-in-law and my cousin-in-law are prime ministers. No matter how stinky they are, they will still take care of their own people."

"Too."

Jiang Ning continued: "As for Li Qingzhao, he is also related to Wang Anshi to a certain extent."

"Is Li Qingzhao still related to Wang Anshi?"

"Yes."

Jiang Ning nodded: "Li Qingzhao's teacher Chao Buzhi is actually the son of Li Qingzhao's grandfather's sister. And Chao Buzhi's aunt married Zeng Gong, one of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Zeng Gong had a sister. , he married Wang Anshi’s younger brother Wang Anguo. Therefore, Li Qingzhao had some relationship with Zeng Gong and Wang Anshi.”

"Well... I don't even know how to evaluate Li Qingzhao's background."

Look at this background.

There are both literati and prime ministers.

And there is not just one prime minister, there are multiple, or even several prime ministers who are the real prime ministers. Apart from the emperor, they are the only ones.

Plus a lot of literary connections.

With such a background, I am afraid that the only way to suppress Li Qingzhao's family background is to move the emperor out.

Although Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, etc. are related to Li Qingzhao, they are already relatively distant.

But although they are not special relatives, they are relatives of relatives, but everyone knows each other and has a very good relationship.

……

"Although Li Qingzhao is a prostitute, she has been exceptionally gifted in poetry since she was a child."

The reason why Jiang Ning wants to talk about Li Qingzhao’s family background.

On the one hand, when Li Qingzhao encounters trouble in the future, her network of connections will help her.

another.

It is also because I come from such a wealthy and aristocratic family that I have such energy and level to study lyrics.

"Li Qingzhao's father was very devoted to Li Qingzhao's studies. In addition to letting Li Qingzhao visit famous teachers, he also indulged Li Qingzhao's nature. Therefore, Li Qingzhao has been naughty since he was a child. He likes to drink, go shopping, and hang out with friends during the Lantern Festival. I go to Kaifeng Mansion to eat, buy things, and go shopping. I also like to sing ditties and even play horse cards."

"What is horse tiles?" "It seems to be a card type similar to flying chess. Anyway, it is similar to the cards we play now, and it can also be considered as playing mahjong."

"I'll go, this is eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, everything is complete."

"There is eating, drinking and gambling, but prostitution... probably not."

Jiang Ning shook his head.

"So on the one hand, Li Qingzhao has this literary gene, on the other hand, he has a good family background, and at the same time, he is unruly and unrestrained. This also allows Li Qingzhao to fully express his personality in literature."

But at this time, a group of fans asked: "Teacher Jiang Ning, how good is this Li Qingzhao?"

"The level, please comment."

Jiang Ning continued: "When Li Qingzhao was 16 years old, because Li Qingzhao had been naughty and playful since he was a child, he preferred to drink. He even got drunk many times. Once, Li Qingzhao got drunk in front of the crabapple flowers in his yard. When she woke up the next day, Li Qingzhao saw that it had rained heavily last night, so she asked the maid how the Begonia Flowers were doing. The maid said that the Begonia flowers were still the same. But Li Qingzhao went to the yard to check again, and found that the flowers were still the same. He said to the maid, you careless girl, the begonia flowers in the garden should have lush green leaves and few red flowers. For this reason, Li Qingzhao wrote this day's conversation into a poem called Ru Meng Ling."

【Last night it was rainy and windy, and I couldn't get rid of the remaining wine even after a deep sleep. When I asked the person behind the curtain, I found that Begonia was still the same. Do you know? It should be green fat, red and thin]

When Jiang Ning read out the song "Like a Dream", all the fans in the live broadcast room were stunned.

"Do you know it? It should be green, fat, red and thin, absolutely perfect."

"Talented, indeed talented."

Everyone thought Jiang Ning was bragging before.

after all.

How many women were talented in ancient times?

Many women in ancient times did not even know Chinese characters, let alone talented.

Even though Li Qingzhao came from a noble family, her talents were definitely not comparable to those of the famous Song Dynasty talents.

But as soon as this poem came out, everyone discovered that Li Qingzhao's level of writing lyrics was not much worse than other Song lyrics.

even.

It is also a classic among Song poetry.

……

"Teacher Jiang Ning, is this really what Li Qingzhao did when he was 16 years old?"

"Yes."

Jiang Ning nodded in confirmation.

In fact.

It can be seen from this poem.

The style of this poem is more lively, without a hint of old-fashioned style.

This also corresponds to Li Qingzhao's age of 16.

On the contrary, the older you get, the less able you are to write such works.

"Since then, Li Qingzhao has caused a sensation in the entire capital with his song "Ru Meng Jin". However, although Li Qingzhao's "Ru Meng Jin" is very good, some people are critical. Especially some old scholars in the Northern Song Dynasty. He always believed that women should be engaged in weaving, embroidery, and flowers at home... Even if they were talented, they should not write about interesting things in their boudoir. However, Li Qingzhao remained unmoved and wrote another song, "If "Dream Order".

[I often remember that the sun is setting in Xiting Pavilion, and I am so drunk that I don’t know my way back. Returning to the boat late after all the fun, I strayed into the depths of lotus flowers. Fighting for the crossing, fighting for the crossing, startling a group of gulls and herons. 】

Compared with the first Ru Meng Ling, this is also an eternally famous piece.

same.

This is also a song suitable for the girlhood.

The same goes for play.

The same goes for drinking and getting drunk.

"Before, it was a matter of knowing whether or not, but now it is a struggle to cross the river. Well written."

"Haha, I feel that Li Qingzhao broke the rules of men writing graceful words, and that's why some people criticized him. However, let me comment. I will say that after reading the words written by Li Qingzhao, I finally understand that women write graceful words compared to men. The writing is more artistic."

Two songs of "Like a Dream" came out.

Everyone was secretly amazed.

Although they dare not think that Li Qingzhao is the most talented woman in history.

But two such classic songs like Meng Ling have made Li Qingzhao a talented woman in the eyes of others.

"Later, there was a young man, Zhao Mingcheng, who admired Li Qingzhao's talent very much and proposed marriage to the Li family. Zhao Mingcheng was born in the royal family, and the two families were well matched. In addition, Zhao Mingcheng was also a talented person, so the two got married. After their marriage, they lived a very happy life. Sweet, although both families had changes due to the political environment of the Northern Song Dynasty, overall, Li Qingzhao's marriage was quite happy. The two studied poetry together and collected epigraphy and calligraphy together."

"In the meantime, as Li Qingzhao deepened her research on Ci, she began to engage in theoretical research on Song Ci. And she also wrote a "Ci Theory" for this purpose. In this Ci Theory, she He said that Ci is different from poetry, and Ci does not necessarily follow the line of poetry. He believes that Ci [Don't Be a Family] should not be compared with poetry. And those who write Ci like poetry are not real Song Ci."

"It seems to make sense."

Everyone nodded.

Words and poetry are inherently different.

There is not much comparison between the two.

For example, if you compare two classic poems and lyrics, do you think the poem or the lyrics are more brilliant?

But at this time Jiang Ning suddenly said: "From our current perspective, what Li Qingzhao said does make sense. However, the literati at that time, represented by Su Shi, believed that the development of Song poetry should be based on poetry. Ci poems should be like poems. As a result, Li Qingzhao's Ci theory was opposed by a large number of people. Li Qingzhao did not back down. Instead, he commented on the lyrics written by Ouyang Xiu, Su Shi, and Wang Anshi, saying that the lyrics they wrote were just like that and not good at all. It conforms to the rhythm of the words. Although they are indeed well written, if there is no irregular development of rhythm, it will harm the Song poetry."

"I'll go, is Li Qingzhao a little crazy?"

Everyone secretly smacked their lips.

Let’s talk about Song Ci’s peak.

That is Su Shi.

Even if it is Xin Qiji.

Although Jiang Ning has talked about a lot of Xin Qiji's lyrics before.

Theoretically, Xin Qiji and Su Shi can be compared.

But everyone still has a slight preference for Su Shi in their hearts.

After all, Su Shi's level of life was too high.

He not only wrote poems, but also wrote about himself.

This is also of great help to everyone.

"There's actually some grudge here."

Jiang Ning explained: "Although Li Qingzhao's father Li Gefei was a student of Su Shi, later, as Su Shi was demoted again and again, Li Gefei slowly drew a clear line with Su Shi. I have no way of knowing what went wrong here. However, the Li family and the Su family were now considered to have become enemies. At the same time, Li Qingzhao's father-in-law and her husband also experienced many changes in politics due to party disputes. Therefore, Li Qingzhao also attributed the root cause of all this to Su Shi and others. Above the old party members.”

"Damn, there's something complicated here."

"It is indeed a bit complicated, so sometimes how to view history, if you look at history from other people's perspective, you may have a different view."

Just like the Su Shi incident.

Are the New Party members who demoted Su Shi evil people or good people?

This is really unclear.

"So because of Li Qingzhao's poetry theory, many people criticize Li Qingzhao. Some think that a woman actually competes with men for talent. Some people say that Li Qingzhao is too uneducated, and others say that Li Qingzhao is not qualified to evaluate Song poetry at all. But at this moment, Li Qingzhao came up with the song "Drunken Flower Yin".

[The mist is thick and the clouds are dark, and the day is long, and the golden beasts are eliminated by the auspicious brain. It’s the Double Ninth Festival and the Double Ninth Festival. Jade pillows and gauze kitchens make it cool in the middle of the night. After dusk when I drink wine in Dongli, there is a faint fragrance filling my sleeves. There is no way that I am not in ecstasy. The west wind blows behind the curtain, and people are thinner than yellow flowers. 】

This poem was originally written by Li Qingzhao to his father-in-law Zhao Mingcheng. Because Zhao Mingcheng was busy with official duties and had little time to go home, Li Qingzhao was bored at home, so he wrote this poem. However, although this poem was written to Zhao Mingcheng, the sentence in it, "People are thinner than yellow flowers," is somewhat similar to a sentence Su Shi wrote before, "Flowers should be thinner than people."

Although Li Qingzhao did not say it clearly, she was comparing this song with Su Shi, or even competing against her.

Even more.

When he wrote this poem, Li Qingzhao really wanted to compare it with the poem "Bodhisattva Man" written by Su Shi.

Undoubtedly, this song "Drunken Flower Yin" is slightly better.

Although in the literary world at that time, there were still many people who did not recognize Li Qingzhao's status.

but.

After Li Qingzhao wrote the poem "Drunk Flower Yin".

The poem "Drunk Flower Yin" has been taking this poem as its formal style since then. In the future, when writing lyrics, the rhythm of this poem will be the standard.
