Chapter 278: Prayer's Wish
It is not difficult to take the second test, Zhu Ping'an has long been familiar with the application of officialdom, and after the test paper was issued, Zhu Ping'an spent a day and a half to finish all the other test questions except for Qingzi.
On the afternoon of the next day after the test paper was issued, Zhu Ping'an only had this green word question left.
Because he foresaw that this green word would be the focus of this meeting, Zhu Ping'an paid enough attention to this green word question and left enough time.
The title of this green word is very simple, the title is just one sentence and eight words, "Pray for your wishes, try to make green words." ”
What does this title mean?
If you want to understand the meaning of this topic, you have to briefly say this green word.
Qingci, also known as "Qingci", is a kind of talisman used by Taoist priests to play the heavenly court or recruit gods. Because it is written on green rattan paper with a red pen, it is called green words, also known as green pigment. Because there were more gods in ancient times, there were more things to tell the gods in the mortal world, so the literati made cameos together to write Qingzi, and later, Qingci gradually evolved into a literary style, and Taoist priests gradually lost their "patent".
In other words, Qingzi is a cantata that people offer to the gods.
"Pray for your wishes, try to make green words"
The meaning of this title is to make your prayer a green word. Whatever you want to pray for the gods, you can write whatever you want, and it's basically an open-ended topic. To put it simply, it is the essay topic that everyone often writes when they are in elementary school: "My Wish"; Or the question you often encounter in English exams when you are in high school and college: "Ihaveadream."
Although the topic is simple, it is not easy to write.
Because Qingzi is not easy to write, it requires gorgeous words to express people's respect and sincerity for the gods of heaven, and it is a kind of article in the genre of poetry. Generally, it is mostly used in the pun style, which is composed of four or six sentences, and the battle is neat and the rhetoric is gorgeous. That is to say, there are two kinds of green words, one is the poem inscription green words, and the other is the endowment green words. Generally speaking. There are more endowments, because the green words are mostly ornate, and the endowment is easier to be gorgeous.
Seeing this question, 90% of the candidates were scolding their mothers. They didn't make a blue word. But fortunately, they are good at eight strands, and you can do a good job of eight strands, no matter whether it is poetry or fu, you can make it. Although this green word is not easy to write, it racks his brains and searches his intestines. It can also be made, but for them who are new to this way, the quality of the green words they make is not guaranteed.
Most of the candidates racked their brains and painstakingly chose words and sentences, and they didn't know how many strands of their worried hair they had pulled off.
Compared with them, Zhu Ping'an is much more relaxed and happy.
Writing green words is not a problem, and writing good green words is not a problem, Zhu Ping'an's only consideration is how to write this green word brilliantly.
Emperor Jiajing embraced Taoism. Cultivating longevity in the palace all day long, and also holding fasting and Jiao activities from time to time, Qingzi is in short supply. The big leader is good at this, and it is necessary to follow the trend. As a result, the ministers presented green chapters and green words to participate in the grand event. Qingci became the most popular and popular style in the Jiajing Dynasty, and several people were promoted to prime ministers because of their good writing. The current Yan Song, Yan Shoufu is a master, of course, his son is much more than his old son.
There are so many people who write green words, so it is not easy to write brilliantly.
At present, Emperor Jiajing's favorite green word is a green word endowment couplet paid tribute by the scholar Yuan Wei: "Luoshui Xuangui first offered Rui." Yin number nine, yang number nine, nine hundred and eighty-one number, the number is the Tao. Dao He Yuan Shi Tianzun, a sincere feeling; Qishan Danfeng two auspicious, male six, female six, six six thirty-six sounds, the sound is heard in the sky. Born Emperor Jiajing, longevity is boundless. ”
The battle is neat, the rhetoric is gorgeous, and the sycophants are popular, can it be in the emperor's heart.
Therefore, it is not easy to write a brilliant green word!
After this green word is written, ten of the ** or 100% will be seen by the Jiajing Emperor, which is not only related to this examination, the most direct relationship is the palace examination, of course, it is more directly related to your career.
Those big guys who are well promoted by Qing Zi, such as Yan Song, etc., are good examples!
So, you can't ignore it!
Zhu Ping'an wore a mask, put the test questions on the side of the table, pressed them with a ballast stone, stretched his waist, thought for a moment, dipped the brush in ink, and then dropped the draft of green words on a blank piece of paper:
"I would like to enlighten the heavens, hold the imperial calendar, and include the true body of the Jade Emperor (Your Majesty): The treasure is boundless, and the sky is blessed. The auspicious Japanese style is in the Yuan life, and the Jiao branch is in the old chapter. Recommend Cheng Zhen to only fine, Yan Shengzhen and gather, Yang Xi Lingzhen, apply tin to Chong, four times the leaf order to peace, the quality of the Hui are rested and Kangtai. No matter how earnest. Sincerely. ”
But after writing, Zhu Ping'an shook his head again, such a combination of green words is compliant, but if you want to be brilliant and want to stand out, Jane is in the emperor's heart, it is far from enough!
Putting down the brush, Zhu Ping'an rubbed his head and thought about it.
After this period in history, there are still those famous green words, and I haven't studied green words much before, so I don't know very well. Moreover, after the Ming Dynasty, the Manchu government despised this style of writing, so Qingzi was lonely.
Oh, there is, there is also a particularly famous Qing song in the Qing Dynasty, so famous that people ignore that it is a green word.
Clear. Gong Zizhen "Jihai Miscellaneous Poems"
Kyushu is angry and thunderous, and thousands of horses are sad.
I advise the heavenly prince to be vigorous and reduce talents without sticking to one pattern.
That's right, this poem is a well-known green poem, Gong Zizhen prayed to the gods, calling for thunderous changes, in order to break the lifeless situation caused by the Qing Dynasty's shackles of thinking and stifling talents, and expressed the author's desire to liberate talents, change society, and revitalize the country.
Gong Zizhen was dissatisfied with the darkness and ** of officialdom, and passed by Zhenjiang on the way back to his hometown. People carry the Jade Emperor, the God of Wind, the God of Thunder and other gods to worship reverently. At this time, someone recognized Gong Zizhen. As soon as he heard that the contemporary writer was also here, a Taoist priest immediately rushed forward to implore Gong Zizhen to write a sacrifice for the gods, and Gong Zizhen wrote the poem "Kyushu Angry Wind and Thunder" with a wave.
However, if you put this green song as it is, then wait for the head to be killed. Because although this poem is famous, it also says that the country is dull and rotten, dead and lifeless. This Enke is because of the country's peace and tranquility and auspicious appearances, and Emperor Jiajing specially ordered Enke.
Now you will offer this Qingzi poem, the name can be published, but don't want it. This is a resounding slap in the face of Emperor Jiajing! If you want to use it, you have to change it.
"Kyushu Angry Wind and Thunder"
Kyushu is angry and thunderous, and thousands of horses are galloping.
Fu Wei Tiangong is full of spirits, and he does not stick to one pattern to reduce talents.
In this way, the meaning has changed, the country is full of vitality, the edict of heaven is smooth, the situation of thousands of horses galloping is very good, thinking that the spirit of Tiangong is very good, I hope that we can select talents without sticking to one pattern. That is to say, the country is in good shape, the situation is very good, and I hope that I can also be selected to pass the examination and contribute to the country.
The green words and prayers fit perfectly, well, it should be good. (To be continued.) )
