"Don't be afraid of being shattered into pieces, keep your innocence in this world!" Lu Butang was still muttering in his mouth.
In the originally noisy post house, you could actually hear a needle drop.
There are all scholars present, and they can naturally tell whether a poem is good or bad.
If we divide poems into different grades, one would be works for daily recitation. This kind of works has neat counterpoints but no profound meaning. It is just a work of harmony among literati.
The second kind is a masterpiece. This kind of poem is refreshing and enjoyable to read. There must be some shining points in it. It was very famous in the world, but compared with a few outstanding people in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, it is almost meaningless.
The third type is Li Bai, Du Fu, Meng Haoran and others. Some of their poems are hearty to read, and some are thought-provoking after reading.
The sentences are full of popular golden sentences, which will be unforgettable for a lifetime after reading, and will make generations of people yearn for and be moved by it.
For the people in the field, if everyone can compose two songs without any trouble, it’s nothing.
It’s shameless, I think I can do two of the second level.
But no one present dared to say that they could compose poems comparable to Li Du's.
But today, right at the table, everyone witnessed the birth of a genius.
Although there are no allusions in Xu He's "Lime Song", the writing is mediocre.
But there is undoubtedly a power contained in this poem, a literary power that is very similar to Prime Minister Wen's "Since ancient times, no one has died, and his loyalty will be remembered by history."
And it is this kind of power that everyone present has been pursuing and yearning for throughout their lives.
Although they may have been in the officialdom for many years and have become slick and cunning, this kind of cultural gene was suddenly awakened by this poem after sleeping for many years.
Everyone, like Lu Yun, chewed the meaning of this poem over and over again.
There were even two officials who became official secretly wiping away the tears from the corners of their eyes.
"Huh..." Lu Yunchang let out a long breath and suddenly stood up and bowed his hands to Xu He!
Everyone was shocked when they saw this.
"Lord Budo."
"Army Gate!"
"Governor Lu!"
Lu Yun ignored everyone, and after saluting solemnly, he said to Xu He: "This salute is a congratulation to me, the poetry circle of the Wei Dynasty, and a congratulation to Xu's poetry talent!"
Xu Song, who was sitting next to Lu Yun, was also shocked.
Xu Dai did not mention the poem "Ode of Lime" to him after he returned that time. This was the first time he had heard of it.
He had already seen from the test poems written by Xu He in the county examination that Xu He was very talented in poetry.
But it was not until today, when he heard the song "Lime Song", that he realized that he had underestimated this younger member of the clan.
The key point is that if it is an ordinary poem about chanting the wind and the moon, no matter how well it is done, Xu Song will not think anything of it.
But the literati character displayed in Xu He's "Lime Song" is exactly the family tradition that his father...Xu Fan wanted to establish.
Now, this deafening poem was actually written by one of his tribesmen. Do you think his mood could not be extremely agitated?
Just when everyone was still recalling this poem, suddenly, a strange fragrance floated into everyone's noses.
"What does it smell like? Why does it smell so good?"
"Have you never smelled such fragrant food? Where did Li Zhixian find the chef? His craftsmanship is amazing!"
Just when everyone looked towards the door, they saw two post officials walking in, each holding a casserole in their hands.
"My lords, this dish is made by the owner of Huibin Restaurant in this county. The name of the dish is [Buddha Jumps Over the Wall]!" introduced the postman who brought the dish to the main table!
Hu Xian Cheng kicked Xu He's calf proudly and winked at him.
Well, it’s Lao Hu’s arrangement again.
At this time, the post official opened the lid of the casserole, and suddenly, a strong and strange fragrance came straight to everyone.
Even Lu Butang, who pays attention to "eating and drinking in moderation", doesn't move his fingers.
At this time, he called the post official and asked him to bring a new bowl, and then filled a bowl with "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall".
Just when everyone thought that Lord Butang was going to taste this delicious food that they had never tasted before.
Lu Yun said, "Go and give this bowl of [Buddha Jumps Over the Wall] to Xu Sheng!"
"Master Bu Tang personally served soup to Xu He!"
"What, Lu Butang thinks so highly of this boy!"
"This kid will become famous after this!"
Xu He was also a little surprised. He took the bowl solemnly, held it up, and said to Lu Yun: "Thank you, Lord Butang, for this gift!"
Lu Yun nodded and said warmly: "As for the song "Song of Lime", you deserve me to serve you the soup myself! Maybe more than ten years later, my descendants will still lead your horse and pedal for you!"
If Lu Yun said this to anyone on weekdays, they would definitely be shocked.
But now they understood Lu Yun somewhat.
Those who can compose poems like "Song of Lime" will have absolutely unlimited achievements in the future.
Li Zhijie smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. He was the first to discover Xu He's rough jade. When Xu He became successful in the future, when everyone talked about this young man, they couldn't help but mention that they favored him. , Praise him for his insight.
The banquet came to an end in a harmonious atmosphere.
Literati, of course, have some singing.
Sure enough, someone during the banquet suggested: "Lu Butang is going to Zhejiang to fight against Japan. Why don't we and everyone else compose a poem each to make us feel better!"
"good!"
"As it should be!"
"Just what I wanted!"
Everyone agreed.
At this time, everyone recommended Xu Song, the highest-ranking official among the officials, to be the first to appear.
Xu Song twisted his beard and meditated for a moment and then recited: "Feathered arrows are flying at the top of Ninghai City, and the Japanese are defeated outside the Taizhou Guard. The general's iron armor bleeds red, and the yellow sand on his sharp edge is made of blood."
As soon as it came out, everyone cheered.
It turned out that not long ago, Japanese pirates landed in Ninghai, Taizhou and other places. When Lu Yun was still on his way to his post, he urgently dispatched one of his subordinates to rush to the rescue and repel the Japanese pirates from the two places.
This poem was written to suit the occasion and the time was so short, so it is already considered a masterpiece.
Lu Yun was very grateful for the praise his elder brother had given him in his poems, and nodded to Xu Song!
It was Li Zhijie's turn next. Magistrate Li thought for a while and recited: "The red sun of the Yan regiment chases the wind, and its ambition is like a tiger and a leopard in the clouds. There are only white-feathered arrows in the pot, so there is no need to ask the Black Mountain Rong again!"
Heishan Rong refers to the ethnic minority in the Heishan area southwest of Yulin, Shaanxi.
Li Zhijie borrowed the name Heishan Rong to refer to the Japanese pirates.
This poem is also a great poem to write during the banquet.
From then on, everyone wrote poems one after another, and the level of poems varied.
But this was just my intention, Lu Yun smiled and thanked them one by one.
When it was Xie Kun's turn, Xie Kun pointed at Xu He and said, "These days, this son has been studying with me. Why don't I let him do my best for the ministry?"
After hearing this, everyone turned to look at Xu He.
There was curiosity in his eyes.
Some of these people were looking forward to it, some were jealous, and some even called the post officials to get paper and pen to prepare to record Xu He's poems.
Lu Yun was also very curious, what kind of stunning and brilliant poem would Xu He, who could write "Keep Innocence in the World", write this time?
