217 A poem that shocked four people (1)
When the magistrate of Qingzhou asked the question, the rest of the officials stopped talking and drinking, and looked over with a smile.
Big was big, small was small, and the Jingu staff had different sizes ... Xu Qi ‘an ridiculed the way this rank 4 official addressed him in his heart. On the surface, he replied with a smile,
“This humble servant does not deserve to be addressed this way, Daren. That poem was indeed written by this humble servant.”
‘Oh, it’s him ...’ All the officials had a look of realization.
When they first heard Xu Qi ‘an’s name, they didn’t react immediately, but they also felt that the name was familiar. After such a long time, he had some guesses about the identity of this strange copper Gong.
With the cirction of Xu Qi ‘an’s famous works, even though the officialdom and schrs did not deliberately publicize his reputation, those present were all high-ranking officials of the state and had the corresponding channels to inquire about him.
It was no wonder that when the Lord chief administrator heard this name, he immediately rushed over.
the sheep Pavilion sends recluse Zi Yang to Qingzhou ” had long spread throughout the country. This great schr had just taken office, and this famous poem was already at the forefront. It could be said that he had taken advantage of the harmony between the people.
And all of this was thanks to the gong in front of him, Xu Qi ‘an.
“I’ve heard a lot about you. You’re indeed a Dragon among men with a majestic appearance.”
The magistrate of Qingzhouughed out loud and ttered him in an open and aboveboard manner. His skill in ttering people was pure.
You tter me ... He was not only a Dragon among men, but also a Dragon among men. Xu Qi ‘an had to admit that if he was in a different position and became the focus, then the disgusting social interactions in the officialdom would suddenly be lively and interesting. He thought about how good it would be if it could continue.
After the magistrate of Qingzhou finished his wine, he nced at yang Gong, the chief governor of the main seat. This great Confucian with first-ss skills had restrained his oppressive official prestige and looked rxed.
At this moment, the magistrate of Qingzhou suddenly thought of the troublesomemandment monument. In fact, writing poems was the best choice. It was simple and eye-catching, but also profound.
Xu Qi ‘an was a talented poet ... ‘The chief governor is troubled by the inscription, and even we are having a headache ...’ Is it possible to let this great schr give us a headache? ‘Hmm, it’s not that the chief governor doesn’t have this idea, but as the head of a state, it’s not good to say it out loud for the sake of his face ...’
However, poems were rare, so he did not consider it. But now, it was different. Xu Qi ‘an was here.
He came at the right time.
Xu Qi ‘an was a talented poet ... ‘The chief governor is troubled by the inscription, and even we are having a headache ...’ Is it possible to let this great schr give us a headache? ‘Hmm, it’s not that the chief governor doesn’t have this idea, but as the head of a state, it’s not good to say it out loud for the sake of his face ...’ The magistrate of Qingzhou was quick-witted.
Thinking of this, the magistrate smiled and said,”What other works does Lord Xu have in the capital?”
He had just asked casually. If the other party denied it, he would use this as an excuse to push Xu Qi ‘an to the forefront. He would join forces with the officials to instigate him topose a poem on the spot. Then, he would naturally give the ” title “.
Simr methods weremon at the wine table, but they were usually used to persuade people to drink, and now they were used topose poems. The purpose was different.
.... You want to read my poems for nothing again? Xu Qi ‘an wanted to say “no,” but provincial governor Zhang took over the topic first and said with a smile,”There really is one.”
The officials present looked over with interest, includingyman Zi Yang.
Which schr is not good at poetry?
Provincial governor Zhang easily regained the focus. He took a sip of wine and smiled,”However, there is only half of it, and it has only been circting in the capital for a short time. I believe everyone has not heard of it yet.”
“Oh? Only half a song?”
“Governor, please speak quickly. This humble official is all ears.”
The officials didn’t look down on it because of the half a poem. Instead, they became more and more curious. This half a poem must be of the highest quality. Otherwise, how could it be circted in the capital city with only half a poem? If it wasn’t good, it wouldn’t be worth it for the governor to say it in public.
Half a song ... Yang Gong couldn’t help but look at Xu Qi ‘an, then back at provincial governor Zhang.
Provincial governor Zhang put down his cup and cleared his throat. After putting on a good show, he then looked around at the crowd and said in a clear voice, when drunk, you don’t know the sky is in the water. The boat is full of dreams, pressing on the River of Stars.
At that moment, the dance had just ended and the music was slowly dissipating.
The banquet fell into a deathly silence. The officials savored this half of the poem and only felt a sense of otherworldly carefreeness. He did not care about fame and fortune, nor did he care about gains and losses.
After getting drunk, hey on the ck-awning boat and looked at the River of Stars above his head. His seven-foot body was pressing down on another River of Stars, and a carefree air rose spontaneously.
Some people shook their heads, as if they were drunk. Some people couldn’t help but look at the small pond in the courtyard. There were clusters of fiery red lotus flowers growing there, but the pond was too small.
Layman Purple Sun pped his hands and said,”this poem has a profound meaning. It should be the peak of poetry in the past two hundred years.” Excellent, excellent.”
He drank three cups of wine in a row and recited poems with wine. He was extremely pleased.
After he finished drinking, he looked at Xu Qi ‘an with bright eyes. is this poem famous? ”
?... Wasn’t it enough that you F * cked me once? don’t i have any dignity ... Xu Qi ‘an almost spat salt soda water on his face. “I already have.”
Recluse Purple Sun was a little disappointed. He nodded and didn’t say anything else. He just mumbled to himself.
Seeing that it was about time, the magistrate of Qingzhou raised his ss and said, ” what a coincidence. The chief governor is about to set up amandment monument in the front yard of each Yamen. The inscriptions on the monument have not been decided yet. I wonder if Lord Xu Canpose a poem? ”
Almost everyone looked at Xu Qi ‘an subconsciously.
Layman Purple Sun didn’t agree or stop it. He just looked at the small gong with a smile.
‘You want my poem with just a ss of wine? I’m not that kind of person ...’ Xu Qi ‘an sighed, ”
“I followed the governor to Yunzhou to investigate a case. My future is uncertain and I’m worried. How can I have the energy and mood to write poems? I’m sorry, my Lords.”
The officials of Qingzhou were immediately disappointed. The magistrate of Qingzhou was anxious and quickly said, “”Lord Xu’s poetry is stunning, don’t be modest.”
Xu Qi ‘an shook his head helplessly and raised his cup to drink.
Layman Zi Yang thought for a while and took off the Jade ring on his thumb. He said in a deep voice, “”Yunzhou is gued by bandits, so this trip is indeed dangerous. Ningyan, keep this jade ring well. I’ve been wearing it for many years, and it’s been nourished by the righteousness Qi. It can ward off evil.”
Xu Qi ‘an’s gaze immediately fell on the ring. He could vaguely see a sh of clear air and recalled what Chu Caiwei had once said.
There were three types of magic tools in the world, one was made by the Directorate of Celestials and array Masters;One was born naturally by chance;Thest type was those who had been contaminated with the aura of high-ranked powerhouses. After umtion over time, they would possess a certain level of divinity.
This jade ring was the third type.
Big brother, don’t treat me like a human tonight ... Xu Qi ‘an hurriedly took it and carefully put it in his arms. He pondered for a moment and said, “”I don’t know what happened, but I suddenly had a thought and came across a poem.”
Didn’t he say that he wasn’t in the mood to write poems? The officials looked at him nkly. A few secondster, they gradually came to a realization, and their eyes became a lot weirder, but they had a tacit understanding.
“I’m all ears,”yman Zi Yang’s smile remained unchanged.
...
Xu Qi ‘an nodded. He had already made his choice. He was going to use the four-line poem he had used in the heart questioning gate during the aptitude test.
Because there was no poem more suitable for this. If he remembered correctly, this poem was also called “themandment stone inscription,” and it was used to warn the officials.
He took a sip of wine and the poem appeared in his mind. His mood seemed to have returned to the lofty aspirations he had at the heart questioning gate.
He couldn’t help but stand up and look at yang Gong,yman Zi Yang, and said softly, ”
“Er Shi er Lu.”
He then looked at Governor Zhang,
“The People’s money.”
Then, he slowly swept his gaze across the officials present, and his voice suddenly became stern.
“The servants are easy to abuse.”
In the end, he looked up at the sky and seemed to be excited as he said loudly, ”
“The heavens can’t be bullied!”
...
Unconsciously, his voice had been infused with the lion’s roar of Buddhism. It rang in the ears of the officials like the evening drum and morning bell, deafening.
ng ... The sound of wine sses breaking could be heard.
Many officials looked guilty or ashamed. Facing a bronze Gong without any rank, they felt like they were facing a strict superior. They didn’t even dare to breathe.
A small number of people who had a clear conscience straightened their backs and their hearts were filled with excitement.
“Good poem, good poem!”
Layman Zi Yang mmed the table and stood up. This great schr’s emotions were a little out of control. He didn’t give off the feeling of an experienced and capable high-ranking official, but rather a young student who had just entered the officialdom, full of vigor and righteousness.
“Back then, if I could have recited this poem in the Imperial court and let go of the depression in my heart, why would I have been depressed for a year? Xu ningyan, Oh Xu ningyan, you’re a real schr.”
In the courtyard, the dancers who were enduring the cold wind blinked their eyes and curiously sized up the only young man at the banquet.
No wonder he was able to make such a move ... This poem had shocked many people ... Provincial governor Zhang sighed. Seeing that the situation was a little tense, he changed the topic,
Lord chief administrator is right. Ningyan, it’s a pity that you didn’t study at that time.
Xu Qi ‘an huped and said helplessly, “”Second uncle felt that I was more suitable to practice martial arts, so he didn’t let me continue with my studies.”
When the officials heard this, they were quite resentful. They thought to themselves, ” your second uncle is not a son. He has wasted a seed of study. If Xu ningyan was a schr, he would not be lonely in the literary world.
....
The banquet ended in the middle of the night. Xu Qi ‘an, who was a little drunk, came to the pool and picked the Red Lotus flowers.
This type of Lotus was extremely strange. It only had six petals, and each petal was full and crystal clear. It was a type that he had never seen before.
this Lotus is called the Red Lotus, or the cold Lotus. It is a Lotus unique to Qingzhou. Layman Zi Yang walked over with his hands behind his back and stood at the side.
they only bloom in October and will wither in the next spring. The Lotus seeds they bear are warm and can be used in medicine.
.... I’ve never seen a lotus flower that bloomed in winter in my previous life. it blooms and bears fruit in the middle of winter, ” Xu Qi ‘an said with a smile. it’s warm, just the opposite of the season. These red lotuses can’t be transnted to the Central ins?”
“I can’t live.” Yunzhou has bandits, ”yman Zi Yang said. Yunzhou is unique to Yunzhou. Any other state would not be able to survive. Do you know where the problem is?”
Isn’t this a problem left behind by history ... Xu Qi ‘an’s heart moved, and he bowed.”Please advise me, Sir.”
