Read the full text
Duan Shaojun smiled in everyone's eyes. "Since the elder brother invited him with good wine, the younger brother should not have disobeyed his fate. However, the younger brother is not a scholar, I am afraid that his talent is clumsy and will stain your ears. ”
Qing'er, who was standing behind her, heard this, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth, and was about to speak, but she felt the corners of her skirt tighten, and when she saw her young lady's gaze, she could only purse her lips and say nothing.
Cao Zhongde, who has been wandering between the Zhangtai pavilions all the year round, has seen the customs and customs of all parts of the Yangtze River, from high-ranking officials and nobles, to the peddlers and pawns in the fields, where can he not see Qing'er's obvious angry expression, and can't help but raise his eyebrows
Thinking of this, Cao Zhongde, who was already paying attention, laughed. "Brother Xian Hugh is modest, if you don't want to agree, then Cao Mou will be too disappointed. Since we are feasting and drinking together, it is natural that we should play a game. This time it's not a test with others, it's just that you don't have to care. ”
"Yes, why should Brother Duan Xian be humble, Chen is looking forward to Brother Duan Xian and my cousin's masterpieces." Chen Gongzi smiled and said to Duan Shaojun. But that expression was really more like schadenfreude than joy.
The women were also laughing and encouraging on the side, but seeing Duan Shaojun silent for a long time, they thought that Duan Shaojun was really a gutless guy, and they couldn't help but have a little more foolishness in their tones.
Chen Gongzi's eyes turned and he muttered a few times in the ear of the Qinglou woman beside him, and the plump fox woman slapped the folding fan armor a few times, but after this person made any guarantees, he threw a wink at Duan Shaojun. "If this son can make a good song, then the slave family is willing to recommend himself for a pillow seat, I don't know if the son has the guts"
Seeing this woman's coquettish smile, and the embarrassed smile of Chen Gongzi. Duan Shaojun couldn't help but feel tired in his heart, and after draining the cup of wine, he stroked his sideburns and replied calmly. "Thank you for this girl's blue eyes, you don't need to recommend a pillow, a gentleman has never won people's favor. Since Brother Cao and you are so sincerely invited, then the little brother is respectful and obedient, if it is ugly for a while, don't blame the little brother for his lack of talent. ”
Since you bento recipients are so crooked, if my brother doesn't slap your face on the spot until it is red and swollen, wouldn't it be too sorry for the expectations of the beauties around you
Duan Shaojun turned his head and smiled gently at Gongsun Su Su, his smile was full of calm confidence and invincible pride, which made Gongsun Su Su's heart crisp, and he was intoxicated by his lover's tolerant gaze
#####
At this time, another Qinglou woman next to Fu Gongzi, who was in dark cyan silk, volunteered to stand up, and she was willing to play the pipa to harmonize the piano. And the woman kneeling on the other side of Cao Zhongde also stood up and wanted to blow Xiao Zhuxing.
Zhu Gongzi summoned a few child servants standing at the bottom of the steps and hurried to the dock of the ship, and braved the rain to fetch the qin, a jade flute, and a cave Xiao. Seeing that Duan Shaojun was secretly disdainful, the posture of these guys knew at a glance that they were veterans of the flowers, and even the musical instruments were ready, typical pickled girls with equipment.
Duan Shaojun was just a guest anyway, so he was happy, taking a sip of warm green plum wine from time to time, and occasionally exchanging a few words with Gongsun Su Su in a low voice, teasing this iceberg beauty who was blushing more and more.
After a lot of effort, the tone was adjusted, and after the preparation was over, the three versatile Qinglou Hongqi people began to show their housekeeping skills, and a lingering piece of music began to overflow in this spacious pavilion in the middle of the lake.
I have to say that the Qinglou women in this era have a few brushes, especially the Oiran that focuses on training, and everyone will learn one or two specialties, whether it is piano and chess, calligraphy and painting, or poetry or song.
In short, what they have learned is precisely for the future, to be able to communicate face-to-face with these literati and scholars, and praise each other, so that their value will continue to rise. Of course, the literati and scholars also had to use the coaxing of these Qinglou women to spread their works and make them sing in the world, and this win-win situation was naturally formed.
Duan Shaojun has a belly full of poetry and songs, but he really hasn't figured out what this little order is. Fortunately, Gongsun Su Su is also a literary young woman, and explained to Duan Shaojun softly.
Duan Shaojun suddenly realized that the so-called Xiaoling was actually the predecessor of the word. Because in the Five Dynasties period when Xiaoling was prevalent, but the earliest Xiaoling can be traced back to the river legend of the Sui Yang Emperor era, it can be seen that the origin of Xiaoling is the origin of the word.
Small or single, or double, or multiple. Multi-piece machines, such as nine-sheet machines, are relatively rare. Because the single is sung repeatedly, it is obviously self-defeating, it is not up to standard, and it will be completed a few more times.
Xiaoling has a full sentence, and there are long and short sentences. The long and short sentences in the Zun Qian set only account for one-half, and they have accounted for four-fifths in the Flower Collection, indicating that in the Tang Dynasty, there were many small orders similar to the five-word quatrains, such as bamboo branches and waves, but with the development of the word itself, the long and short sentences are naturally dominant, and finally, the word almost refers to the work composed of long and short sentences.
"Wait, the little brother has it, so I'll throw bricks here first." Zhu Gongzi stroked his eyebrows, stood up, folded the fan in his hand, and put on a personable posture, hoping to attract everyone's attention.
Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted, Zhu Gongzi, who was secretly proud, then began to shake his head and make a seven-word quatrain. "When will the double flying swallows return to the shore and the peach blossoms will be dipped in the water?"
After reciting a seven-word poem, Zhu Gongzi set his eyes on Cao Zhongde, who closed his eyes and lowered his eyebrows, his expression was both expectant, and more nervous, for fear that Cao Zhongde, a Jiangnan poet, would not only lose face, but may even affect his future.
Cao Zhongde tapped the chopsticks in his hand for a while, stroked his beard and commented with a smile. This poem is gentle and moving, detailing the beauty of the spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. It's just that there is no compatibility between love and scenery. So, just take your middle and top, how"
"Thank you Brother Zhongde for your comments, little brother thank you here." Zhu Gongzi was overjoyed in his heart, and bowed deeply to Cao Zhongde and said excitedly. This Xiaoling, but the best one in his Xiaoling works, has been hidden, just to be able to get Cao Qianjin's comments in front of everyone. To get a middle and top, for him, it is already a matter of getting what he wants.
Today's party was initiated by him wishing someone, and he moved his friend Chen Shou to invite his cousin Cao Zhongde, who had just returned to Yangzhou, to enjoy the poems together. is to be able to get Cao Zhongde's comments.
#####
Several other people also congratulated Zhu Gongzi one after another, looking envious and jealous. Let him wish someone more and more proud, and after Cao Zhongde commented, he turned around and took a sip of the wine cup handed by the woman next to him, as if he had never seen the mutual praise of these people. Cao Zhongde has seen too many such scenes.
Then, another boy stood up, but it was a five-word poem, which depicted the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River in a decent manner.
But even so, this guy is so happy that he can't keep his mouth shut, you know, Cao Zhongde has always been stingy in evaluating others, if it weren't for his cousin Chen Shou asking him to come out of the mountain today, these people wouldn't even see Cao Qianjin, who saw the head and end of this dragon, let alone let him comment on himself and others.
And the others also enthusiastically performed, and between the sound of the piano, they slowly recited their own proud works. At this time, it is no longer the time to consider your own eagerness, but to strive to show your best ability, so that the first talent in Jiangnan can give him a better review.
In this way, when I take the imperial examination next year, when I go to the paper and submit the paper, I can write it on it: Cao Zhongde, the head of the four great talents in Jiangnan, has a comment, even if he fails the imperial examination, he will go to the Qinglou to drink, maybe he can get a half-discount.
You must know that Cao Zhongde's name is not only known to everyone in Jiangnan, but even the Son of Heaven has heard of it, and issued an edict to conquer it, but it was rejected. makes him famous in Jiangnan and even in Beijing.
