Rebirth of Tang Dynasty as a dad

"You, your kid is full of nonsense, you don't know the eloquence, and you still compose poems? I'm afraid you can't tell the difference between mediocrity and mediocrity. That's okay, there are no outsiders, so you don't have to be brave." Old man Yu just didn't believe it, and he was as kind as an elder persuaded.

"Isn't it as simple as mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocre mediocrity? Maybe it's like poetry students can't win a great Confucian like Teacher Yu, but how much talent does Changsun Chong have in his stomach? He can't cope with students taking out one-tenth of the poems in his stomach. "

Du Shaoqing is full of self-confidence, his own history is not good, but thanks to the nine-year compulsory education and three-year college entrance examination career, he can't memorize all three hundred Tang poems, but there are probably no less than a hundred poems that are required to be memorized in school alone. , plus the elective favorites, just a little poetry meeting, I can't compose poems, can I recite poems?Changsun Chong, if you want to stick your head out and let me slap you in the face, of course I can't be polite.

"Oh? You actually know Pingze? Hehe, it's not bad, it's not too bad at all, let's make a poem to see." Yu Shinan said in the exam.

Du Shaoqing groped his chin, stared at the old man up and down, and asked, "Before composing the poem, the students have been puzzled by a question. Teacher, although it is not the dog days, it is also a hot summer. Your toga and sleeves Isn’t the Confucian uniform hot? Is it for the convenience of wiping sweat?”

Yu Shinan: "I"

Chapter 133 Is Really Learning to Recite Poetry

A news spread in the city of Chang'an today, saying that the son of the Duke of Qi is going to hold a poetry meeting on Qujiang Pond, and the emperor will be there to have fun with the people.

"I've also heard that someone is going to challenge Duke Qi's son. It seems to be some kind of doctor." A passer-by yelled. ,

Some ignorant ones disdainfully said: "You're just talking nonsense, what kind of doctor would compare himself to others in poetry? The Duke of Qi is known as the most talented person in Chang'an, who doesn't have eyes and dares to challenge others?"

"You guys don't know about that. I heard that he is the elder brother of Du He who poisoned his mother a while ago, and also the eldest son of the late Duke of Lai, Du Ruhui."

"Fuck, what is Du He, mentioning him is just polluting our ears. The elder brother of this kind of person must not be a good person, and dare to show his eyes? He also threatened to challenge the Duke of Qi? Brothers, we will also go there at that time Look, look at how Duke Qi's son took down the opponent." Many people began to curse.

Du Shaoqing didn't expect that he would be rubbed against him before the fight.

Needless to say, it was all spreading his notoriety, and no one mentioned that he cured the Queen, which meant that someone was secretly contributing to the flames.

In Lai Guogong's mansion, Du Gou's wife, Mrs. Liu, was worried and found Wu Zhao, who was temporarily staying at home. She had been married to Du Shaoqing. Although she was younger, she was also Liu's sister-in-law and Du Shaoqing's wife in name.

"Sister-in-law, bad things about elder brother are spreading wildly outside, what should we do? Do you think elder brother knows about it? Shall we go to Duke Yi's mansion to let us know?"

Wu Zhao seemed to be used to this title, and said calmly: "Someone is deliberately spreading rumors to cause trouble, I have already sent someone to spread another news, don't worry about it, it's just rumors.

Du Shaoqing must have known about this, but even if he knew, he wouldn't pay attention to it, as rumors can't kill people. "

Liu thought to himself, why can't he be killed?Wasn't the third child, Du He, almost killed by rumors last time?

"Then what about elder brother challenging Chang Sun Chong? Although elder brother's medical skills are superb, he is not good at poetry. My mother once said that he failed three times, how could he?" Called sister-in-law, but after all, the two of them haven't paid homage to the church. Will talking about Du Shaoqing's shortcomings make the other party dissatisfied?

Wu Zhao said with a smile: "I know something about him. Didn't someone see that the great scholar Yu Shinan had already gone to the Duke of Yi's mansion? Presumably he was there to help."

"I'm a woman who doesn't know much about poetry, but I also know that some students didn't study hard for ten years. Could it be that a great Confucian can teach a genius in a few days?" Liu retorted.

After pondering for a moment, Wu Zhao nodded, "It's useless for us to be anxious, I'll think of an idea and help him when the time comes."

I don't know what good idea the other party will have. Liu is useless to ask, because after getting along these days, she feels that although this little girl is young, her mind and wisdom are far beyond ordinary people, so Liu's invisibility to Wu Zhao There is a sense of trust.

In the Duke Yi's mansion, Du Shaoqing recited a poem "Thoughts for a Quiet Night". After listening to it, Yu Shinan was overjoyed at first, and then worried.

"You can't recite poetry?"

Du Shaoqing was surprised and said: "Recite poems? Am I not? Could it be that besides mediocrity, there is also a melody in this poem?"

Yu Shinan shook his head greatly, "Although your five-character quatrain just now is good, it is out of date, and it has no meaning at all. It is purely memorizing poems. You can't plagiarize it. I can tell you, gentleman First of all, to establish morality, taking without telling is stealing.

From a human point of view, stealing other people's masterpieces is a heinous crime, ranging from being contemptible to others, to ruining one's reputation and having no future at all. "

Du Shaoqing broke out in a cold sweat after being educated by the old man's righteousness and sternness. It's okay, he didn't go to the competition immediately, or he had to reveal his secrets. He only knows how to recite poems. Is it two different things at all?

He only knows Tang poetry, Song Ci, Yuan opera, and novels of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and he doesn’t understand them any more deeply. These are the characteristics of an era. It's not as simple as memorizing a book, or how can it be called poetry reciting?At least it has its rhythm.

However, after the impact of Song Ci, Yuan Opera, and Ming and Qing novels, coupled with the changes in the historical environment, especially the Xinhua Movement in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China introduced the torrent of Westernization, the native Chinese poetry reciting method was gradually lost. Later generations can only feel the beauty of poetry from the rhythm of the poem, but few people can hear the poem recited personally.

So it's normal for Du Shaoqing not to recite poems. In front of great Confucians like Yu Shinan, he couldn't hide it at all, and people could tell at a glance whether it was his poems or not.

But at this time, I have to use it even if I have to bite the bullet. I only steal the descendants. Isn't it safe not to be recognized by the predecessors?Du Shaoqing had no choice but to lie with excuses, "To tell the truth, Teacher Yu, the students are all self-taught, and have never learned poetry reciting and artistic conception.

So I have the audacity to ask Master Yu to teach me how to recite poems and the difficulties in composing poems. "

Du Shaoqing is also shameless enough. It is true that he has never learned to compose poetry. To say that he taught himself is to open his eyes and talk nonsense. He is obviously plagiarizing celebrities.

"Oh, this is also rare. You can compose the short five unique poems just now, which shows that you still have some talent. Anyway, the old man will come and talk to you about reciting and composing poems." Yu Shinan didn't know if it was true. I don’t know, I’m still pretending to be confused, I didn’t worry about whether Du Shaoqing plagiarized others, but just started lecturing like this, and even deliberately mentioned Du Shaoqing, interspersed with the title of the Qujiangchi Poetry Club that I could guess .

Of course Du Shaoqing knew what was good and what was wrong, he thought to himself that this old man is not bad, he is a good person.

On the other hand, Chang Sun Chong felt even more proud when he heard that Du Shaoqing had invited Yu Shinan as a guide. Doesn't this just show that he has a guilty conscience?

"Come here, go and spread the news, and say that the kid is scared, so he hugged his feet temporarily, and invited the great scholar Yu Shinan to give a lecture. If he can win this way, I'm afraid a three-year-old will be a hero."

There was no answering voice from the book boy at the door, but a figure appeared in Zhang Sun Chong's study room. Looking at the fat figure, Chang Sun Chong asked in surprise, "Father, why are you here?"

"Hmph, since you want to compare yourself with the other party, then do it in an upright manner, and don't do these things that don't stand on the table. You have the chance to win, so why give someone else a handle to destroy the Great Wall?

I just heard you say that you are going to spread rumors about Yu Shinan?Do you dare?Yu Shinan has also been your husband, teacher who spread rumors, don't you understand etiquette? "

Changsun Wuji scolded his son head and face, and Changsun Chong stood with his hands down and bowed his head to admit his mistake.

"I know that you want to target Du Shaoqing because of Changle, but I'm here to remind you today that your marriage with Changle is still under discussion. You have to be mentally prepared. Even if there is no Du Shaoqing, you may not be sure It can be done."

"This, how could it be? His Majesty agreed, and my aunt also promised not to intervene. Even if the cousin is not happy with the words of the parents and the matchmaker, she will marry." Chang Sun Chong was surprised. Hearing that things had changed, Or his father said it himself, he was a little scared.

Chapter 134 Qujiang Poetry Meeting

Changsun Wuji didn't explain why, and he was also conflicted in his heart. Du Shaoqing and Sun Simiao would not be indiscriminate. It is not impossible for close relatives to marry and have children who are stupid and deformed, so he is also waiting for the result.

It is a good thing for son Changsun Chong to marry the princess in person, but if it is a fool to have a child in the future, not to mention burdening the family, it will also affect the reputation of the eldest grandson family and the royal family, so we must be cautious.

The time soon came to the Qujiang Pond Poetry Meeting five days later. It was time for the imperial court to take a bath, so Emperor Li Er took the queen and several sons and daughters to the side of the Qujiang Pond that had been prepared. Beside her husband, Princess Changle held her younger sister Sizi with one hand and her daughter with the other, and Princess Chengyang, who recently divorced, followed her.

Because it is in the afternoon to enter the venue, the poetry meeting will start with the lighting of the lights at night. It is not only cool at that time, but also the lighting of lanterns along the Qujiang Pond adds color.

And the aristocratic sons who signed up for the poetry meeting were arranged in each of the painting boats along the Qujiang Pond. Each boat had a boatman, bookboy, announcer, and waiter, a total of four people, just waiting for someone to come out. Question, the young master on the ship made a masterpiece, and then handed it over to the judges' bench not far away for unified review.

If anyone's poems are praised, they are eligible to be sung by the announcer in public for the common people to appreciate and enjoy. Of course, this is also a good opportunity to become famous.

In addition to the famous noble talents invited by the imperial court in advance, in order to demonstrate the original intention of selecting talents for the country with the common people, the imperial court also set up a registration office at the gate of Qujiang Pond. If the reviewer passes the review, you can also participate in the competition.

You must know that it is very difficult for poor students in this era to get ahead. Their own academic background is not as good as that of nobles, and with their personal qualities, it is almost rare for ordinary students to produce talents. Most ordinary people do not even have books in their homes. No, literacy is a problem, let alone reciting poems correctly.

Du Shaoqing also followed Qin Huaidao to the Qujiang Pond in Chang'an City. After reporting his name, someone naturally led him to the painting boat that belonged to him. On behalf of the gang, no matter whether you know it or not, you have a share in the name of the prince of the country.

Just like Cheng Chumo and Yuchi brothers, who have no ink and like to kill, if you don't like it or think you can't do it, you can abstain. Be an audience.

Who can bear such a shame?Therefore, no one abstained from being an audience even if they stayed in the boat without showing their faces or composing poems.

The judges were all top-notch among the Eighteen Scholars of the Old Qin Palace, and of course they were also famous Confucian scholars in the Tang Dynasty. Yu Shinan, Yao Silian, Chu Liang, Xu Jingzong, one of the Eighteenth Scholars, Yan Shigu, a great Confucianist, and others.
