Everyone couldn't help but be surprised when they heard Jiang Han's words.
Forget it last time you recited the article at Phoenix Stage, but this time you actually want to recite it too?
The question asked by Tang Yi was obviously more difficult than the one asked by Phoenix Stage last time. It needed to elaborate on the idea of benefiting the country and the people. Even if you are talented and have great literary talent, you may not be able to write this kind of article well.
What's more, just recite it directly?
So confident?
Everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Jiang Han.
Jiang Han closed his eyes and began to think.
Seeing him closing his eyes and meditating, Wang Yanzhi couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It's really just pretending to recite an article, how easy is it? What’s more, it’s still a topic like this!
At this moment, Jiang Han opened his eyes and recited loudly: "The people are the most valuable, the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important."
Many people changed their colors slightly, but some talented people nodded slightly. The idea of the king being valued over the people has always existed in Dayu. Although Jiang Han's sentence was very bold, it was not considered a taboo.
"This is why the people of Qiu become the emperor, the emperor becomes the princes, and the princes become the great officials. If the princes endanger the country, they will change their positions."
"The sacrifice is completed, the rice is abundant and clean, and the sacrifice is timely. However, if there is a drought and water overflows, it will be replaced by the state."
“If the people don’t work hard, how can the country be prosperous?”
"Putting the people first will ensure national security."
"The people are the foundation of the country, and the foundation is solid and the king is at peace."
"..."
Jiang Han's body was tall and straight, and there seemed to be a sparkle in his eyes. He talked eloquently, quoting from classics, and expounding theories about Sheji.
During this period of time, in addition to practicing martial arts, he also did not give up reading and studying.
The books he had read and read in his previous life were all deeply imprinted in his mind. Coupled with the remaining memories of his previous life, he was already very good at writing articles.
At this time, in this article, he not only quoted the words of Mencius, but also added some opinions from his previous work "Minben Lun", which made everyone present look at him.
People with outstanding talents like Yuan Bin, Hua Ruyi, etc. were all surprised when they heard this. Hua Ruyi, in particular, felt a deep sense of frustration.
Some of the views he talked about were not understandable even to me, but after careful consideration, I found that these views were full of great principles, and every word was clear.
Jiang Han's voice was ups and downs, full of emotion. If you don't serve the people, why should you be a king? Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it. Therefore, the people are the most important thing and the king is the lightest person.
At first, some talented people sneered at his article, but after hearing it, they realized something was wrong.
Why is this article so good?
Why could he write such an article?
Many people were shocked, staring at Jiang Han with shock on their faces.
Until Jiang Han finished reciting the article, you could hear the needle drop.
After a long time, Tang Yi clapped her hands and said: "Good! What a great article! What a beautiful article!"
"Today finally made Yi gain a new perspective."
At this time, it was not Tang Yi who had the most violent mood swings, but Zhang Yujun. He felt like he had instantly become a clown!
His article was originally considered a masterpiece, but compared with Jiang Han, it was nothing like it.
Originally, he was 100% confident that he would win the title of the Beginning of Xia Wenhui, because he got the topic in advance and knew in advance that Tang Yi would give the topic at the Beginning of Xia Wenhui.
He prepared carefully for several days, and after writing the article, his father-in-law revised and polished it.
I just want to make a name for myself at this conference.
But after listening to Jiang Han's article, he felt that he was a joke.
An article carefully prepared for several days is no match for someone's casual recitation.
In fact, Zhang Yujun's article is already very good, and his talent may not be lost to the four great talents of Yunmeng.
However, he met Jiang Han, a loser.
Tang Yidao: "This article is full of details and enlightening! Mr. Wang thinks who is the leader of this literary meeting."
Wang Yanzhi's mood at this moment also changed from disdain to shock. After hearing Tang Yi's words, he said: "Jiang Han's article should be the leader."
Although he really wanted to praise his son-in-law Zhang Yujun's article, he also knew that Zhang Yujun's article was simply not comparable!
If he really recommends Zhang Yujun as the leader, I am afraid that he will immediately attract ridicule from the talented people present.
Tang Yi smiled and said: "With this beautiful article, Yi's trip today is considered worthwhile."
…
After Jiang Han finished reading the article, many people still couldn't come to their senses.
They looked at Jiang Han with very complicated eyes, some were surprised, some were admiring, some were disdainful, and some were indifferent...
But no one denied that his article was not good.
Jia Yue raised her wine glass to Jiang Han and said with a smile: "Jiang Han, great talent, you are indeed the leader. Yue'er proposes a drink to you."
…
After the article comparison was over, Tang Yi left the literary meeting, and other scholars also began to recite poems to relieve the atmosphere.
The atmosphere at the scene gradually became warmer, and people kept raising glasses to toast Jiang Han.
Jiang Han sat for a while, then stood up and said goodbye: "Brother Yuan, Brother Hua, you continue, Jiang will go back first."
"Wait a minute, Mr. Jiang, it's still early, why are you going home so soon?" Jia Yue stood up and said, "The scenery of Yunmeng Lake is very beautiful. Wouldn't it be fun to take a boating trip during this time? Let's go boating. ?”
"This... I'm afraid it's not good..." Jiang Han was about to refuse.
Jia Yue quickly glared at Hua Ruyi and gave him a look to keep Jiang Han away.
Hua Ruyi was stunned for a moment, then stood up and said, "Brother Jiang, what's wrong? It's still very early. Let's take a boat trip. It's not in vain."
Yuan Bin said: "You're here, let's go!"
Jiang Han thought for a while and said, "Okay!"
The four of them immediately left Yingyue Tower and walked towards the lake.
Jia Yue deliberately lagged a few steps behind and called out: "Cousin, let's say a few words."
Hua Ruyi was stunned for a moment and walked to her side: "Sister, what do you want?"
Jia Yue squinted her eyes like autumn water and said, "Cousin, do Yue'er a favor."
Hua Ruyi said: "You say."
"I like Jiang Han, help me get him." Jia Yue's voice was calm and quiet, but it was like a thunder in Hua Ruyi's ears. He felt that his heart was a little broken, and now it is even more broken. .
The person she is chasing wants to help her chase another man?
"He is already married and is not a good match for you." After a moment of hesitation, Hua Ruyi looked at her cousin and said.
Everyone knows that Jiang Han has entered the Ningguo Mansion and became the son-in-law of the Ningguo Mansion. Why do you still have such thoughts?
Jia Yue said calmly: "So what? Just make peace."
Hua Ruyi said: "They have only been married for a long time, how can they get divorced?"
"I have a way, but I need my cousin to help me." Jia Yue said.
Hua Ruyi looked at Jia Yue and suddenly realized that this cousin seemed to be very scheming and not the simple cousin in her impression, and asked, "Do you really like him that much?"
"I don't know if I like it or not, but when I first read his song "Touching Fish", I felt that he was a person with a lot of stories and I really wanted to get to know him."
Jia Yue looked at Jiang Han's back as he walked to the side of the boat, and suddenly there was light in his eyes: "At the literary meeting at Phoenix Terrace, I saw him reciting the "Phoenix Terrace Chronicles" in public, and he was so high-spirited that if he were the leader , will be my husband, and my heart will beat non-stop."
"Cousin, you know, originally my father wanted to betroth me to the leader of that cultural gathering. If my father didn't say so, it would be fine. But when he said so, I kept thinking about him. Will be my husband.
Every night after I go back, I will always think of his articles, his poems, and his high-spirited look, brilliant literary talent, and majestic appearance. "
"Remembering that he actually rejected my father and didn't want to marry me, but married the devil in Ningguo Mansion, I even felt a little resentful towards him."
"But when I saw him just now, those resentments were gone. My heart was even beating wildly. Maybe, maybe I really like him."
"Cousin, will you help me?"
Hua Ruyi looked at her cousin's expression and felt very complicated.
Even if he loses in poetry, he loses in writing, and he loses in love.
For a moment, Hua Ruyi was a little discouraged. He wanted to refuse, but he was afraid that he would see her disappointed expression if he refused. After hesitating for a while, he finally said: "You know, you want my help." No matter how busy you are, I will help.”
Jia Yue's pretty face immediately burst into a smile: "Cousin, you are the best! When Jiang Han and Qin Muqing reconcile, and when Jiang Han and I get married, I will treat my cousin to the best wedding wine and the sweetest wedding candies."
Hua Ruyi forced a smile: "Okay."
…
Jiang Han and Yuan Bin waited for a while and finally saw Hua Ruyi and Jia Yue coming over.
Yuan Bin said: "Let's get on the same boat, and I'll row the boat."
Jia Yue smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble Mr. Yuan to row the boat for us."
Yuan Bin jumped to the bow of the boat, held up his bamboo pen, and said, "Get on the boat!"
Jiang Han jumped on the boat first, and then heard Jia Yue say: "Master Jiang, give me a hand!"
Jiang Han hesitated for a moment, then reached out, took Jia Yue's hand, and pulled her onto the boat.
Jia Yue smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang."
After Hua Ruyi also got on the boat, Yuan Bin rowed the boat.
As soon as the boat moved, Jia Yue immediately lost her center of gravity and leaned towards Jiang Han. Jiang Han stretched out his hand to hold her shoulders and said, "Miss Jia, sit down!"
Jia Yue looked a little pale, nodded, and sat aside: "Jiang Han, can you swim?"
Jiang Han said: "Yes."
"That's good. If I fall into the water, there is still someone who can save me." Jia Yue patted her chest with an innocent tone.
As the ship moved out, her chest rose and fell tremblingly.
Sitting in this position, Jiang Han was opposite Jia Yue and could see clearly. He quickly turned his head to another place and looked at the water.
The water surface is sparkling, reflecting the mountains in the distance. It is really a pleasure to go boating.
In addition to Jiang Han's boat, there were other scholars boating.
After traveling for a while, another boat came. There were several scholars standing on the boat. One of them shouted: "Yuan Bin, Brother Yuan, are you here to play too?"
"Yes!" Yuan Bin responded when he saw it was a scholar he knew.
"Come over to my ship. I have a new scroll, the one you like."
Yuan Bin's eyes lit up and he said: "Brother Jiang, Brother Hua, you row first."
Immediately, he gave the wormwood to Hua Ruyi and jumped onto the opposite ship.
