Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 151 Be My Fifth Brother's New Wife

"His Royal Highness, is what Cui Shi said just now true?"

Fang Xuanling asked Li Zhi with a smile.

When Li Zhi heard Fang Xuanling's question, he stood up and smiled respectfully, "It's true, this king has brought an expert with him this time. So Fang Xiang, please ask a question, this king will definitely win!"

"Haha.!" Changsun Wuji laughed: "It's much better. It's been so many years. I haven't seen His Royal Highness King Jin be so domineering. Even if I lose today, I'll be free of this thousand guans!"

"Thank you, uncle, but the same sentence, this bet, I will win!" Li Zhi smiled complacently, and then turned to look at Li You who was eating food.

For Li You, Li Zhi was very confident.

Why?

Hey, if you want to talk about why you have so much confidence in Li You, then you have to talk about the three poems written by Li You, one is "Pity Farmers", one is "Twilight Scenery" and the other is "Bee".

These three poems were written by Li You in order to show his prodigal son turning back.

Especially the song "Sympathy for the Peasants". This "Sympathy for the Peasants" is easy to understand, catchy and well-conceived. I don’t know how many times Li Shimin praised Li You’s "Sympathy for the Peasants" can be passed down through the ages .

Li Zhi was also punished by his father to copy ten times for wasting food.

It is also because Li Zhi knows how powerful Li You is, that's why Li Zhi is so confident at this time. He believes that as long as his fifth brother is willing to make a move, he will definitely win.

"Good. Good.!" Changsun Wuji was very happy that his nephew finally gained confidence.

"Then the old man will not say much, let's tell the topic of this time!" Fang Xuanling smiled slightly, and then looked at all the people present who were looking at her with wide eyes and expectant eyes.

You know, there are countless people here who are asking themselves questions.

This is very normal, many of the descendants of the elite have invited old masters and even Fang Xuanling's classmates who are familiar with Fang Xuanling to answer the questions, not just one question, but also ten questions and twenty questions.

After all, this official path is the yearning of many people.

Fang Xuanling smiled slightly, and did not show off, but directly disclosed today's topic: "Students, the topic of today's poetry meeting is "Chrysanthemum!"

As soon as this question came out, there was an uproar in the audience, because the question was too tricky. We all know that "plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum" are called the four gentlemen of flowers, and they have always been highly respected by literati. There are countless songs and paintings of literati.

However, the ancient literati had the psychological appeal of seclusion in their bones. No matter whether they put it into action or not, when the world was difficult, such thoughts would always appear in their hearts, just like Su Shi. He has expressed his thoughts of seclusion many times, such as "when will I go back, be an idler, face a piano, a pot of wine, and a stream of clouds", "the boat will pass away, and the river and sea will send the rest of my life" and so on.

But this chant of chrysanthemums is not something ordinary people dare to try, why. Because ever since Tao Yuanming chanted chrysanthemums, chrysanthemums have been defined. The maverick, not trendy complement each other.

If you want to write more, you can only write according to this meaning, and the Yongju you write in this way will be restricted, and you will never be able to surpass Tao Yuanming.

Of course, there are also those who praise chrysanthemums for their new ideas. Just like Su Shi once wrote "The lotus is gone and there is no rain cover, and the chrysanthemums still have proud frost branches", Yuan Zhen also wrote "It's not the flower that is preferred Chrysanthemum, all the flowers bloom and there are no more flowers", Huang Chao even wrote after falling to the ground, "When autumn comes and July [-]th, I will bloom and a hundred flowers will kill".

But those people are not ordinary people. None of these powerful children thought that Fang Xuanling would ask such a question, and they knew it without guessing, and they all failed.

Those old masters would never have thought that Fang Xuanling would come up with such a question, because this is a poetry meeting, and the poetry meeting is for selecting talents, but a limited question cannot select good talents, it can only restrict everyone .

However, since the topic has already come out, it must be written out, and everyone is on the same topic, so there is no disadvantage, so everyone in the audience was surprised for a while, and then began to think hard.

"Fifth brother. How is it? Do you have any poems?" Li Zhi looked at Liyou expectantly.

At this time, Quan Zhixi on the side suddenly shook his head and said: "Mr. Fang's question is very tricky. According to my little girl's thinking, it should be to prevent people from asking questions and lose the fairness of the poetry meeting.

Yongju has already been written by Tao Yuanming, it is really difficult to produce another Yongju with higher intentions than Tao Yuanming, so Your Highness King Jin, you are likely to lose! "

"How is it possible?" Li Zhi on the side quickly said, "Fifth Brother will never lose!"

Seeing Li Zhi's firm belief in Li You, for some reason, Quan Zhixi burst into an unknown fire: "His Royal Highness, the little girl has no intention of offending, but the little girl has something to say, like a stick in her throat, Not spit fast.

This fifth brother of yours is an ignorant person, he doesn't know any poetry at all, if he can write a poem of a medium level, then the little girl will let him dispose of her. "

"Is it okay to be my fifth brother's bride?" Li Mingda said suddenly.

"Of course.!" Quan Zhixi immediately answered because of subconsciousness, but after answering, Quan Zhixi regretted it.

Just when Quan Zhixi wanted to explain.

Suddenly Li You said to Li Mingda who was beside him: "Sir, record!"

Li Mingda was overjoyed, and Li Zhi spread out the paper in a hurry. Li Mingda waited for Li You's poems with a brush in his hand. The fun of thinning the fence is not exhausted. I would rather die with the fragrance on the branch, than blow it into the north wind!"

After reading the poem, Li You whispered the title of the poem: ""Cold Chrysanthemum""

It is said that Tao Yuanming's chanting chrysanthemum is unsurpassed by future generations, so "Cold Chrysanthemum" is the most domineering and unsurpassable chrysanthemum poem in the entire Song Dynasty!

The first two sentences of this poem not only describe the growth environment of chrysanthemums, but also highlight the character of chrysanthemums.Hundreds of flowers are competing to bloom in spring, but chrysanthemums do not follow the trend, and when the flowers have withered, chrysanthemums stand proudly in the bitter wind and frost in autumn and bloom alone.

The so-called "infinite interest" is not only the natural interest of chrysanthemums that do not compete with other flowers, but also the interest of chrysanthemums' noble and steadfast thoughts.

The last two sentences are majestic and famous through the ages. Unlike other flowers, chrysanthemums will wither and fall in the wind. From the beginning of blooming to withering, the petals of chrysanthemums always hang on the branches and never fall to the ground. Let the north wind blow, and I will stand still Do not move.

After Quan Zhixi finished watching "Cold Chrysanthemum", her mouth opened wide in horror, her eyes completely revealed a strange look, and she looked at Li You with a very incredible expression, as if she didn't know a person she knew very well.
