Siyun smiled and said: "This is what you scholars say that only Chu is talented, but it's a pity that I have bad luck in my life and don't have the surname Chu, otherwise I can be a scholar and live a leisurely life." ”

Hearing Siyun say this, Chen Shihong couldn't help but smile, in the middle of this conversation, he had already arrived at the post house, after Chen Shihong got off the car, he gave the money to Siyun, and after Siyun took it, he said with a smile: "Thank you for taking care of it." ”

Chen Shihong said that if he could meet him next time, he would still take care of Siyun's business.

When Chen Shihong returned to the post house, he heard a report from the post officer, saying that the saint was going to summon him tomorrow.

"Got it, you go down."

Although Chen Shihong didn't know what the sage was looking for him, he was still ready to deal with this summons.

The next day, Chen Shihong saw the saint in Wenying Building, the saint was writing something, saw Chen Shihong coming, put down his pen and said to Chen Shihong who was saluting: "Excuse me, I summoned you this time to ask about something." ”

After the sage asked Chen Shihong to sit down, he said to Chen Shihong: "Naizu is a great Confucian in the southeast, famous for his articles, Lin Wenzheng once studied under your grandfather's door, I want to ask what the three of them think about the articles." ”

Chen Shihong didn't think of this problem, he thought about it for a while, and told the sage that the Marquis of Qingyuan emphasized the law of righteousness, although the word righteousness came from the "Book of Taishi Gongshu", but the Marquis of Qingyuan gave it a new meaning, meaning refers to words and things, and law is to say in order. The Marquis of Qingyuan believed that if a scholar could learn the righteous law from the books "Zuo", "Shi", "Gong", "Gu", "Yu", and "Policy", then he could touch the same and write about the current text, which was more than enough.

"In recent years, I have listened to the lectures of the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy, and often said that the ancient text is the current language, but I think it is novel, but now it seems that it is just picking up people's teeth and wisdom."

Chen Shihong next talked about Chen Shixing, Chen Shixing said in the righteous law, with spirit, syllables, and words. This spirit is to advocate that when writing articles, God should be the main thing, and qi should be supplemented. If the person who writes the essay is so vigorous, the god is transcendent, the spirit is elegant, the spirit is high, the novelty is peculiar, and the spirit is profound.

As for syllables, in a sentence, there is either one more word or one less word. A word is either flat or sound. In a flat word, either yin ping or yang ping is used. A sound word should be used, or use the upper voice, the sound to go to, and the sound to enter the voice. Then the syllables of the article are very different.

Therefore, this accumulation of words into sentences, accumulation of sentences into articles. When the time comes, you will be able to know whether the syllables are wrong, and if you can read them smoothly, then you can see the spirit.

Chen Shihong doesn't know a lot about the law of the Qingyuan Marquis's article, but he knows a lot about Chen Shixing's grandfather, and after talking about this, he is not satisfied, and he said another important proposition of Chen Shixing.

Wen Gui Qi, Wen Gui Jian and Wen Gui Chang.

Chen Shixing believes that strange can be in many places, strange in words, strange in meaning, strange in the pen, strange in the hills and ravines, strange in the divine. The list goes on, but it should be strange, not plain and too straightforward.

Jane is to use the pen to be old-fashioned, sincere and sincere, talking about righteousness, Taoist is light, high in arguments, far away and inexhaustible.

As for change, it means that the spirit changes, the qi changes, the environment changes, the syllables change, and the words change. If they stick to the rules, the five will be the same all their lives, and even if they are famous literati in the world, they cannot be regarded as good writers.

After listening to Chen Shihong's talk, the sage smiled and said: "Your grandfather's divine spirit theory follows the divine theory of the predecessors, plus the charm of the present people. ”

Chen Shihong said that what the sage said is extremely true, it is true.

Next, Chen Shihong talked about Lin Quan, Chen Shihong didn't know much about Lin Quan, just to understand the fur.

He knew that one of Lin Quan's most important points was that the article was divided into yin and yang, and if the article was not rigid enough, and the softness could not be soft, then this article would not be considered a good article.

The best article is occupied by both feminine and masculine, but that is what a god can write, and not a human can achieve.

In addition, there are the three of the righteous and rational examination of the dictionaries.

Lin Quan believes that some people's articles are all reasonable, and no matter whether the text of the article is elegant or not, whether the reason is reasonable, such an article will be bored when people read it, and this is the most problematic when doing current writing.

And some people are full of exploration, four words can prove tens of thousands of words, if this trivial, can no longer become an article, reading will make people dizzy, this is a small school often has this disease.

Some people are full of flowers, piling up allusions, although it is pleasant to read, but when you think about it carefully, there is nothing to say, the allusions are inappropriate, and it makes people feel funny when they see too much, which is a problem only for bachelors of diction.

Therefore, a good article must be balanced between the three, and one is indispensable, and if it is missing, it is enough to call it a good article.

Chen Shihong only said that this was the end of it, because this was all he knew about Lin Quan.

After hearing this, the sage asked Chen Shihong how to learn how to write articles so that the prince could learn them.

Chen Shihong told the sage that the first point is that whenever he writes an essay, he must first be touched by the feelings in his heart, such as when he sees thunder and heavy rain, he has a stirring feeling in his heart, and only with this emotion can he think about writing an essay.

Second, when writing an essay, you should throw away all distractions, concentrate on it, let your mind wander in the words, and in this way, make good words.

Speaking of this, Chen Shihong sighed: "Nowadays, many literati, because of the remuneration, can only praise and praise, although the article is very beautiful, but there is not much true feelings, and it is tasteless to read for a long time." ”

The sage nodded, and then Chen Shihong said, all kinds of articles, what method to write.

After talking for an hour, the sage listened to Chen Shihong's talk, and said with a smile: "The Qing family doesn't seem to talk about Shiwen. ”

Chen Shihong thought for a while, and said to the sage: "Children of the Heavenly Family, you don't need to seek fame with time. ”

When the sage said this, he couldn't help but smile and didn't ask more, Chen Shihong didn't need to give a gift, Chen Shixing hated Shiwen the most, thinking that it was just memorizing familiar words, plagiarizing each other, and Tian was shameless.

The saint also has a reward, and regarding today's discussion, the saint asked Chen Shihong to write a book and submit it.

After Chen Shihong thanked him, the sage let him retreat, and then the sage continued to come to the bookcase to write, and after a while, Concubine Wen walked in, and after greeting the sage, the sage said to Concubine Wen: "Little boy, this time I trouble you, send this to Lin Bingmei." ”

Concubine Wen looked at the names of the three people written on it, and said to the sage: "Sage, the concubine thinks that this child Bingmei will not be circled. ”

"Really? I think she will, these three people are related to him, and they are rare talents in the world, so why is she unwilling? ”

"For others, this is indeed a good couple, but not necessarily for Bingmei, this child is a very high-minded woman, she may not agree to this family business."

The saint didn't believe it and made a bet with Concubine Wen.

Concubine Wen then arrived at the Ice Palace, at this time Lin Bingmei was in school, Concubine Wen did not let the female official notify, but waited quietly on the side, Princess Jianwen saw her mother, stepped forward to salute, Concubine Wen supported Princess Jianwen, and Princess Jianwen went to the warm pavilion next to her.

Princess Jianwen asked Concubine Wen what was the matter with her coming this time, and Concubine Wen smiled and said, "I came this time to ask Bingmei something." ”

"It's the one who helped her choose a husband, Queen Mother, why do you have to help her?"

Princess Jianwen was a little jealous, her parents cared too much about outsiders in this matter, as the parents of all the people in the world, they were worried about an outsider's marriage, wouldn't it be a joke to say it.

Of course, the most important thing is that among these three people, there is someone she likes.

Concubine Wen is also a person who has come over, seeing Princess Jianwen like this, she held Princess Jianwen's hand and said: "My son, many things, you have to be able to call the shots, everyone has their own life, it is yours after all, it is yours, not yours, if you want to force it, you can't get it." ”

Princess Jianwen was exposed to her heart, and she was a little shy, and said to Concubine Wen: "Queen Mother, the child doesn't understand, what are you talking about." ”

Concubine Wen smiled, and then talked to Princess Jianwen about the three of them, and through observing the words and feelings, Concubine Wen quickly figured out that Princess Jianwen liked Ye Shixi.

Concubine Wen also talked about some things about Ye Shixi, including the conflict between Rouge River and Chen Tianmin.

Princess Jianwen listened to Ye Shixi's song, with a bright smile on her face, and asked her mother what kind of song Ye Shixi made at that time.

Concubine Wen said that she had just heard about it, and she had to ask the next person what the song was, but now on the Rouge River, this red pear blossom song is sung, which must be an extremely good song.

"My son, you and Bingmei have been together for a long time, who do you think Bingmei will choose?"

"These three people are not equal, if they are children, it is rare to choose a wishful husband, if there is only one talented girl, my sister will naturally have the music of riding the dragon, but now the three of them are difficult to choose."

"So if the child were in this situation, who would he choose?"

"Who can a child choose, not the son of the great Confucian, there are few Xuezheng who can't even read the Four Books and Five Classics."

After hearing this, Concubine Wen shook her head and said: "My son, Lin Shaowen is actually not bad about this child, in terms of character and appearance, he is also the best choice, although he has never hunted for the way of history." If you marry into his family in the future, you can naturally persuade slowly. ”

"Even a great Confucianism like Ding Yuli can't be taught well, how can a child be able to let him study."

"Ding Yuli comes according to his seniority, and he is the same generation, it is not easy to instruct, and you are different, when the time comes, my son, you can pretend to be the Hedong clan, he naturally studied hard, and he is not a stupid and stupid person, as long as you persuade him well, maybe he will be able to overcome Qiqiu in the future and become a great talent like his father." Concubine Wen persuaded Princess Jianwen from the side, hoping that Princess Jianwen would change her mind.
