[There are tall buildings deep in Cuiwei, and the color of the sea floats on them.
The setting sun always attracts eternal dreams, but the chaotic clouds cannot sweep away the sorrow of the day.
Fish and dragons filled the air with dampness, and the sounds of chickens and dogs sounded slightly above.
Don't ask about the rise and fall of the tide, your ambition has been paid to you for a long time. 】
This poem was written by Sun Yuanxiang, a later Qing Dynasty poet.
Although this Sun Yuanxiang is not well-known in history, he was actually recognized by scholars as "good at poetry" at that time.
He is also good at parallel and prose, good at calligraphy, and is good at painting plum orchids and daffodils.
Shi Wen, together with Wang Tan and Shu of the same period, were called the "Later Three Families" or the "Three Lords of Jiangzuo".
Although Xu He can also compose poetry, to be honest, except for "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he has never seen such talent in reality.
If Gu Hengbo had given him a few hours after setting the topic, he might have been able to produce a pretty good poem.
But you ask someone to sit at the dinner table and wait for you for an hour or two?
I'm afraid I'm not sick.
"The setting sun always attracts eternal dreams, and chaotic clouds cannot sweep away a day's sorrow." Mr. Jinpao recited these two sentences repeatedly, frowning slightly, as if there was something in his mind that he couldn't explain.
On the other hand, Gu Hengbo, who had bright eyes and white teeth, said in surprise: "What a sentence [Don't ask about the rise and fall of the tide, your ambition has been paid to you for a long time]!"
Xu He wanted to laugh when he heard this. There was a reason why he chose this poem.
Zhang Lei's poem just now is full of "reclusive" romance.
Gu Hengbo obviously liked that poem very much, so Xu He naturally fell in love with it and gave it to her with a twist of "Ambition has paid off for a long time".
Gu Hengbo, who had just been sitting upright, had stood up at some point. She frowned slightly and repeatedly recited the two sentences "Don't ask about the rise and fall of the tide, your ambition has been paid to you for a long time". She obviously liked it very much.
After a while, I saw Gu Hengbo bowing to Xu He like a man and saying: "Young Master is an extremely talented poet, I admire you!"
Gu Hengbo is a well-known Qinghuan in Jinling. She is the most famous poet in Qinhuai. Ordinary people may not be able to see her even if they spend a lot of money. Now she actually bows to an unknown country boy...
Young Master Jinpao is stupid...
He paid money to invite Gu Hengbo to travel to Hailing City with him. Although Gu Hengbo was invited, his every move and smile gave people a feeling of being thousands of miles away.
But the young man in front of him actually asked everyone to bow and salute, and if word spread, it would embarrass many so-called talents in Jinling.
Qian Jizu was also stupid...
Xu He was clever because he was good at reading, and he knew this.
But he never thought that the Gu family, known as "the most beautiful person in Jiangnan", would admire Xu He's talent so much!
It seems that he wants his son to have more contact with Xu He in the future and be tainted with this literary spirit.
"Forget it, that stupid guy will never be able to write this kind of poem in his eight lifetimes!" Qian Jizu was dejected.
Faced with the stunned look of the two people, Xu He was not that surprised.
Just kidding, Sun Yuanxiang, the original author of this poem, is the second most talented person on the list. Although his poems are not as good as those of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, he is still very good today when poetry is declining day by day.
At this time, Gu Hengbo said: "Mr. Xu, although the slave family likes words of recluse, but I see that the young master is young and is studying hard. Hengbo has something to advise the young master..."
"Young Master, please work hard and work hard. When you win the first prize in the future, you can wander freely in the streams and in the woods!"
"Uh!" Xu He felt that he was a little too pretentious.
Why is Gu Hengbo here?
Encouraging Learning.
Yes, I like the hermit style, but you are not even a child, is it a little too early to talk about this now?
Xu He looked up at Gu Hengbo and saw a look of sincerity in her eyes. He suddenly felt something in his heart: "I'm ashamed. This person is really considering her own future from her own point of view."
When he thought of this, he slightly cupped his hands and said to Gu Hengbo: "Thank you girl for your advice, Xu He will definitely study hard."
Gu Hengbo was originally afraid that Xu He would think too much, but seeing that his words were sincere, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed: "Great, the slave family will be waiting in Jinling for the day when the young master is selected!"
Xu He smiled slightly, bowed his hands to the two of them and went downstairs.
Although Mr. Jinpao is already in his thirties, he still couldn't help but be jealous when he saw Xu He Shi Ran coming downstairs: "Hengbo, even if this guy is a bit talented, is this too much for you?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Hengbo pursed his lips and smiled and said to the young master in brocade robes: "Mr. Xue, you are a martial artist and cannot listen to the poetry exchanges between us literati. With Mr. Xu's poetic talent, the slave family dare not say that he will win. Jinshi, a successful candidate cannot escape!"
Qian Jizu, who was standing nearby, was shocked when he heard this.
Lift people?
Juren can be regarded as stepping into the officialdom and initially having the qualifications to be an official.
By then, even the county magistrate will be polite when he sees it.
The person in front of me actually thinks that Xiaohe can pass the examination?
For a moment, his heart was filled with mixed feelings and his mind was spinning.
…
When Xu He returned to the box, a group of classmates were eating.
Qian Yu also came to accompany him at this time.
Seeing Xu He, he was immediately surprised and said: "Xiaohe, what do you guys look like? Do you look good?"
The people around him all had expressions of concern, but they still pretended not to care. However, their perked ears and softer breathing betrayed them.
Xu He smiled slightly and said: "It looks good!"
"How beautiful is it?" Qian Yu asked.
Xu He pretended to be embarrassed and scratched his cheek with his index finger: "A little prettier than my wife!"
"Go to hell!"
"Hahaha!"
"Xiaohe, you guy..."
The mistress Xu He mentioned was the old wife of Xie Fuzi, a sociologist. She was over fifty this year. Even though she was graceful when she was young, her face was full of wrinkles now.
At this time, Chu Yuan said: "In the past two days for the county examination, everyone should go home and study!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone looked at Xu He.
Among the classmates who came today, most of them, like Qian Yu, realized that they were not knowledgeable enough after the main exam, so they voluntarily gave up on the first and second interviews, let alone the last round of interviews.
Among them, only Xu He, who was named the leader of the case by the county magistrate, and Chu Yuan, who spoke, passed directly through the main venue and only needed to attend the [interview] the day after tomorrow.
Chu Yuan's words meant that he wanted to go back and review his lessons, and he also meant to remind Xu He not to let his mind wander.
When Xu He heard this, he stood up and saluted Chu Yuan and said, "What the fourth brother said is that we should break up, right?"
Although the other people were a little disappointed, they knew that this moment was very critical for the two of them, so they all stood up and left.
After going out, Xu He and Qian Yu agreed to meet again the day after tomorrow, and then walked out of the city with Chu Yuan.
While walking, Chu Yuan said: "Xiaohe, there is something I want to tell you!"
Xu He nodded when he heard this.
"Master Xie has gone back to his hometown in Yiling. I heard that a new master has come to the social school. He is an old boy who has failed in many tests!"
Hearing this, Xu He frowned immediately!
