Chapter 129: Preemptively Recommending Yourself
Yang Shen is the son of Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the current cabinet, and was rated as the first of the three generations of the Ming Dynasty by later generations, and the ranking is still above Xie Jin and Xu Wei, and this majestic "Linjiang Immortal" is Yang Shen's work in his later years after being demoted to southern Yunnan, and it is also the pinnacle of Yang Shen's life.
Later, Mao Zonggang of the Qing Dynasty took Yang Shen's "Linjiang Immortal" as the frontispiece of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", until the modern "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was made into a TV series, and the word "Linjiang Immortal" was also composed into the theme song.
Xiao Yuxue and Wang Qiaocui, the two famous courtesans of Qin Huai who were proficient in music and rhythm, covered their mouths in shock, and their beautiful eyes were shining, because for them, Xu Jin's singing and music were revolutionary.
Although Tang Bohu was uninhibited by nature and arrogant, he was also holding a wine jug like a wooden chicken at this time, his eyes were staring at Xu Jin, his face was incredulous, and he muttered in his mouth: "A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet, how many things in ancient and modern times, all pay ...... laugh and talk."
The great master Xu Kui was also shocked, although he was quite displeased with Xu Jin's "radical", but he had to admit that this son's talent was indeed extraordinary, just this majestic and heart-wrenching "Linjiang Immortal" is enough to be passed down through the ages, I am afraid that it is difficult for anyone to surpass it.
"Good words, good songs, as soon as the first word of Xu's case comes out, this poetry competition can be rested!" Jiang Yun blurted out excitedly.
What is it better than?
Xu Jin's "Linjiang Immortal" is shocked, absolutely crushing the strength, no one present asked himself if he could make a poem, which could surpass Xu Jin's "Linjiang Immortal", even Tang Bohu had to be convinced, his poetry style was mainly small and fresh, let him make such an atmospheric and magnificent poem, he was afraid that he would not be able to make it.
Ning Wang Shizi's face changed, and he suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Impossible, this prince doesn't believe that Xu Jin's age can make such a poem." ”
Yuan Cheng echoed loudly: "Yes, what His Royal Highness the Prince said is extremely true, and I don't believe it. Xu Jin is only in the year of the crown, and this "Linjiang Immortal" is majestic, and the vicissitudes of the world are exhausted, how can Xu Jin be able to do it at a young age? It must have plagiarized someone else's words. ”
As soon as this remark came out, many people present showed suspicion, indeed, such a poem, if it were not for a certain age, the vicissitudes of the world, the success and failure of the old man, I am afraid it would not be possible.
In fact, this "Linjiang Immortal" was indeed made by Yang Shen in his later years, and Yang Shen was only thirty years old at this time, and he was still editing the "Records of Wuzong" in the Hanlin Academy in Beijing, and it is estimated that he can't write it now.
Therefore, Xu Jin is very calm in the face of Yuan Cheng's questioning, this "Linjiang Immortal" is definitely an "original" work at present, and the copyright belongs to him Xu Someone, and no one can snatch it away.
Fei Maozhong was also a little hesitant, but when he saw Xu Jin's calm appearance, he immediately calmed down, and sneered: "Yuan Cheng, if you have solid evidence to prove that Xu Ziqian's "Linjiang Immortal" is plagiarized, come up with evidence, otherwise don't spurt blood here, you can't do it yourself, it doesn't mean that Ziqian can't do it either."
Xu Jin's "Bamboo Stone" and "Fortune Operator Yongmei", which one is not magnificent and the style is completely consistent, could it be that all his poems are plagiarized?
Don't say three, do you have the ability to plagiarize a hand-me-down poem and show it to everyone? ”
As soon as this remark came out, most people's suspicions were immediately dispelled, Xu Jin's poems are indeed heroic, and this "Linjiang Immortal" is also the same, not to mention that these poems are new works that have never been heard of.
"What Fei Minshou said is very true, surnamed Yuan, if you have the ability, you can also plagiarize a song."
"Hey, at Yuan Cheng's level, it's difficult to plagiarize!"
Yuan Cheng was ridiculed so much that his face turned red, but he had no way to refute it, so he could only be speechless.
Xu Kui nodded, although he was also a little skeptical, but with his erudition, he had never heard such a song "Linjiang Immortal", not even a similar one, not to mention that Xu Jin sang it, and the strange tune was also unheard of, and it was estimated that Xu Jin himself was original, so sometimes I have to believe that there are still demons in this world, and Xu Jin is such a demon, but unfortunately his views on governance are too radical.
Xu Kui asked left and right: "This official thinks that Xu Jin's "Linjiang Immortal" is the best and should be the first, so this game of poetry competition Guangxin Mansion wins, do you have any objections?" ”
Liu Zhong, the superintendent of the imperial history, nodded and said, "Agreed!" ”
Li Shishi stroked his white beard and said lightly: "It should be so!" ”
It is said that although Li Shishi is a guest of King Ning's mansion, he will not ignore the facts in order to please King Ning's son, this person still has a temperament, otherwise he would not resign angrily.
As for Tongzhi Kezheng, he wanted to "blow the black whistle", but there was no way to blow it at all, Xu Jin's "Linjiang Immortal" was incomparable, so he could only nod his head in agreement.
Tang Bohu was even more straightforward, and said directly: "There is no one before this word, and it is difficult to have someone in the future, so it should be the first!" ”
Although the twenty candidates in Nanchang Mansion were unwilling, they couldn't compose poems of that level, so they could only acquiesce to the result.
As a result, Guangxinfu won the competition in this game of poetry, and when others didn't even have time to write a poem, Xu Jin won the first place in advance with a crushing advantage.
Therefore, after tonight's Tengwang Pavilion Literary Meeting, Xu Jin's fame is destined to reach a higher level, and with this song "Linjiang Immortal", he can occupy a place in the entire Ming literary world. In fact, after Xu Jin's song "Linjiang Immortal" was brought back to Qinhuai River by Xiao Yuxue and Wang Cuiqiao to sing, his fame really soared, and he had the potential to catch up with the four great talents in Jiangnan.
Ning Wang Shizi's face was a little ugly, the more Xu Jin was in the limelight, the more unhappy he naturally became, and if the Nanchang Mansion side lost this time, the effect of Ning Wangfu in attracting local readers would also be reduced.
Li Zhe didn't dare to despise Xu Jin anymore at this time, and arched his hand and said: "Xu's first poem is unparalleled, and I admire it very much, but now there is no victory or defeat between the two governments, and according to the agreement, there will be an extra game of Danqing." ”
Xu Jin nodded and said, "How do you want to compare?" ”
Li gradually said: "Painting is quite time-consuming, so I propose that each side recommend one person to paint, and how about five judges judge the winner?" ”
Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong glanced at each other, both showing a hint of joy, they had seen the portraits made by Xu Jin to the three younger sisters with their own eyes, so they were full of confidence in Xu Jin's unique style of painting.
Before Xu Jin could speak, Jiang Fangjie stepped forward and said loudly: "Okay, just as Li Yuan said, I am willing to fight on behalf of Guangxin Mansion!" ”
