Can one poem also be used as seven poems?
Huang Wanqiu thought to herself, and was a little surprised at the same time.
It is not easy to write so many peach blossoms in one poem.
Is it more powerful to write seven peach blossom poems, or to have seven peach blossoms in one poem?
The last question asks candidates to write seven peach blossom poems, but it does not necessarily mean that they must write seven.
It is mainly used to judge the talent of children, but it is also measured by the quality and quantity of poems.
Peach blossom poems are the most common, but it is obviously impossible for Tong Sheng to write seven of them in such a short period of time.
Even among the examiners and famous talents present, not many could write seven poems.
Therefore, it is not a big problem for Lin Wanjie to write a song.
Huang Wanqiu looked at it for a while, then looked up. She was more concerned about the third question.
I hope Lin Wanjie can change. If the previous poems and essays continue as described, it may be difficult to pass this childbirth test.
Huang Wanqiu just glanced at it, a little disappointed in her eyes.
Still the same as before.
Only the last sentence has some changes.
Huang Wanqiu read it out anyway: "One piece, two pieces, three or four pieces, five pieces, six pieces, seven or eight pieces. Nine pieces, ten pieces, tens of millions of pieces, flying into the reed flowers will disappear."
"Flying into the reeds, all the flowers disappear..."
Huang Wanqiu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously repeated the last sentence.
"Flying into the reeds, all the flowers disappear!"
Huang Wanqiu's eyes lit up, and she felt as if she had a discerning eye for gold.
I thought that as soon as the first three sentences came out, I was doomed to judge that the author was not versed in poetry. After all, these first three sentences were too casual and crude, and they were not poems at all.
I didn't expect that the last sentence could turn something rotten into something magical, and actually change an ugly work into something spiritual and even have a little aftertaste.
There has never been a case where the entire poem changed because of the last line.
Huang Wanqiu likes this kind of poetry structure, which gives people unexpected joy in its cleverness.
And there are too few poets who can come up with such ingenious ideas.
Huang Wanqiu feels that today's literati's poems and lyrics are too rigid, too serious, and less comfortable and casual. As Lin Wanjie said, people who only read the first three lines of the poem will probably feel contempt. Only those who have read the last line can truly Feel the mystery of poetry.
At this level, he has surpassed Tong Sheng by a lot, and even many scholars cannot do this.
On the contrary, Huang Wanqiu still blamed herself. If she didn't have some contempt for others, she shouldn't have made rash judgments after reading the first three lines. Now she was slapped in the face by the last line of the other person's poem.
"Late Qiu, what are you looking at?"
An old voice came.
The visitor was an old gentleman. When Huang Wanqiu saw him, she bowed respectfully: "Mr. Ouyang."
Mr. Ouyang is one of the leading figures in the literary world of Daxia. His reputation is far-reaching, his students are all over the world, his reputation is spread all over the world, and he has a very high status in the literary world.
This time I am also the chief judge of the childbirth examination, and half a year later I will also be the chief judge of the college examination.
He is also the husband of Huang Wanqiu, the most talented woman in Yangzhou.
What is extraordinary about Ouyang Heng is that he dares to break away from the old and create new things. He not only promotes the imperial examination, but also dares to accept women as formal disciples. He is unique in every aspect.
Of course, such a shabby and innovative approach would also be hated by others. At least in the eyes of many nobles, this troublemaking old gentleman was not very popular.
Moreover, most of Ouyang Heng's disciples came from poor families.
Among Ouyang Heng's disciples, Huang Wanqiu is the most popular among his husband.
It's not that this disciple is a girl, it's mainly because of Huang Wanqiu's aura. She is naturally good at studying literature. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and song. She is extremely talented and has a very high spirit.
Seeing Huang Wanqiu holding a paper and observing it for a long time, the teacher became a little curious.
"Sir, here are two poems. Please comment on them."
"Oh?" Mr. Ouyang was surprised. This was just a test for children. Even if there were any good poems, it would be difficult for his disciples to understand him.
However, Huang Wanqiu used the word "criticism".
This shows how serious and serious he is.
What other amazing poems can appear in the children's examination?
With half doubt, Mr. Ouyang saw Lin Wanjie's test paper.
Because there is a lot of blank space in the last question, there is only one poem in the answer section, which is very eye-catching.
Mr. Ouyang also saw this peach blossom poem at first sight.
After a brief look, he laughed: "Whose child is so careless? He was obviously asked to write seven peach blossom poems, but he put seven peach blossoms in one poem..."
At the end of the conversation, Mr. Ouyang, like Huang Wanqiu, gradually discovered the problem.
Regardless of the title, writing seven peach blossom poems is not as difficult as adding seven peach blossoms to one poem.
It is not ordinary people who can add so many peach blossoms in one poem.
"In Peach Blossom Temple in Taohuawu, there are peach blossom fairies under Peach Blossom Temple; Peach Blossom Fairies plant peach trees and pick peach blossoms to sell for wine money."
Could Tong Shengqi have written this?
"Who did this?" Mr. Ouyang frowned and asked seriously.
Huang Wanqiu did not answer directly, but pointed to the top: "Sir, there is another song above!"
Mr. Ouyang looked up again: "One piece, two pieces, three or four pieces..."
At this time, the first sentence of the question was the same for everyone, so there was no expression on it.
But after reading the second sentence, Mr. Ouyang's brows gradually wrinkled.
"Five pieces, six pieces, seven or eight pieces..."
In the third sentence, the gentleman frowned even more tightly, showing a faint sign of impatience.
"Nine, ten, and tens of millions of pieces..."
In the last fourth sentence, Mr.'s frown suddenly lightened up and he actually smiled.
"Flying into the reeds, all the flowers disappear!"
Huang Wanqiu quickly asked: "How do you feel, sir?"
"Wonderful, wonderful! I didn't expect that a simple poem could make me feel so emotional. If you hadn't reminded me, I almost wouldn't have the patience to finish reading the poem. But if I didn't finish reading the poem and comment on it, I would probably have to It's a big joke. The author of the poem has fantastic ideas and is extraordinary. It doesn't look like it was written by a child."
"Indeed, he is not a child, but a middle-aged man in his late thirties. I heard he was once a servant."
"What?" Mr. Ouyang was shocked. He was even more unreasonable than a child.
How could a middle-aged man or a servant write such a work?
In the eyes of the world, it is a big deal that a servant can read, let alone recite poems and write lyrics?
Huang Wanqiu asked in a low voice: "Sir, do you think such a person can pass the childbirth examination?"
"Passed from beginning to end? I feel that the test questions in the Tongsheng Examination did not bring out his true level at all. Look at his words and sentences, which are bohemian and carefree. It is obvious that he does not take the exam seriously."
Huang Wanqiu felt happy when she saw her husband was so surprised. She felt that her vision was right. The servant named Lin Wanjie was indeed quite capable.
"Sir, that man suddenly has to take the Tongsheng Examination. He is obviously planning to rely on his talents. I heard that he was recommended by the Wang family to get the place. If he studies among the nobles, he will be ostracized because of his birth."
"you mean……"
"The student is so bold that he wants to ask the teacher to accept him as his disciple."
Huang Wanqiu spoke out for Lin Wanjie's sake.
No matter how much practical knowledge he has, whether he has used all of it in the examination room.
As long as he can write such a poem, it can at least prove that he is a talented and potential seedling.
As a woman, Huang Wanqiu knows that studying is not easy.
Lin Wanjie's age and appearance are not like ordinary students, so he will definitely encounter a similar situation to himself.
Thinking about what others would think, Huang Wanqiu didn't want what happened to her to happen to Lin Wanjie.
Lin Wanjie just lacks the guidance of a famous teacher. As long as he can join Mr. Ouyang's disciples, he can save a lot of trouble, as long as he studies hard.
After hearing this, Mr. Ouyang naturally knew what the student was thinking and nodded with great satisfaction.
But to become a disciple of Mr. Ouyang, this test paper alone is not enough.
"Take me to meet that person if you have the chance."
…
Lin Wanjie didn't know that he was already being taken care of.
Now I am still regretting that I read the wrong question.
How can I pass the exam if I even read the test questions wrong?
Mr. Shi Che was still comforting him: "Brother, let him go. If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time."
Next time is next time.
But next time I have to wait half a year, I have to wait a year to take the scholar examination, and I have to wait another year to bring Jian Niang back.
"Although it's just a child test, it's not as easy as you think."
"Misunderstanding the question is just an excuse. People know it better."
There were some strange noises around, but Lin Wanjie didn't pay attention to them. He returned home with a heavy heart. No matter the outcome, he always wanted to tell his wife.
After hearing what Lin Wanjie said, the eldest lady also frowned, but soon showed a smile: "Well, if it doesn't work, there will be another time. After all, it is the first time to take the exam. No matter what the exam is, after all, people who pass it in one go A minority.”
"But, if this happens, won't we have to wait an extra year to receive Mother Jian?"
Lin Wanjie was a little depressed, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Madam, how about we go see her secretly?"
"This..." The eldest lady was a little embarrassed, "My sister asked me not to tell you where she lives."
Lin Wanjie had a grimace on his face.
The rough man's sorrow made the madam soften her heart. The eldest madam had never seen Lin Wanjie look miserable, so she waved her hand and said, "That's all, see you when you see me, but don't force me."
"good!"
Lin Wanjie nodded heavily.
Originally, Lin Wanjie could not avoid the second lady, and he didn't know why. Now that he heard that he could see the second lady, Lin Wanjie felt even more excited.
There was not much interaction between Lin Wanjie and Jian Niang, and there was no opportunity to establish a relationship. However, they were under the same roof and experienced the rise and fall of the Xiao family at the same time, and they also gained some insights and connections.
At least Lin Wanjie could understand when the eldest lady said that Jian Niang had resentment in her heart.
Because of the Second Madam's complaint, Lin Wanjie realized that unknowingly, he owed a lot to the Second Madam.
When Lin Wanjie traveled to the Xiao Mansion and became a big family member, and got entangled with the three ladies, Lin Wanjie realized that his time travel was different from that of his predecessors.
This life may be to repay love debts. The more you hope to fall in love, the ending will be sentimental.
Trying to take care of everyone turns out to be the opposite.
Sitting on the carriage leaving the city, Lin Wanjie was a little nervous. He could let Jian Niang live alone, but he would always have to meet Jian Niang.
Even if the explanation is useless, it cannot be without any explanation at all.
Lin Wanjie was worried about being rejected by the second lady, and he was also afraid of stimulating the second lady to do anything excessive.
"Lin Da, please relax."
The eldest lady saw Lin Wanjie's daze and reached out her hand and put it on the back of his hand.
The eldest lady's hand was very warm. Lin Wanjie withdrew his thoughts and took a deep breath.
"My sister is not a man-eating beast. Why are you so nervous? Among our three sisters, Jian Niang has the best temper. She must have experienced some hardships these days. Her resentment against you is temporary. As long as It’ll be fine if you can explain it clearly.”
After agreeing to Lin Wanjie to visit Mother Jian, the eldest lady's heart suddenly became enlightened.
Only when Jane is taken back can the family be truly reunited.
If possible, take Jane home now. Finally, as for the words of the neighbors, you can ignore them. Anyway, reputation cannot be damaged by a few people.
With this thought in mind, the carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain.
The way up is just one step at a time.
Because there is a Thousand Buddha Temple on the mountain, there is an endless stream of pilgrims coming and going.
All kinds of people are lined up together, and it doesn't feel like the tranquility of the world, but more like being in a market.
The eldest lady said that Qianfo Temple would take care of Jane, which sounded a little strange to Lin Wanjie.
But after all, he is a monk, so it doesn't matter.
It's now noon, meal time.
Thousand Buddhas Temple suspended pilgrims from offering incense and preparing to eat and rest.
As a rule, Qianfo Temple will deliver vegetarian meals to the small bamboo house down the mountain behind the temple when it's meal time. Many monks are happy to do this work and rush to make this trip every day.
Now the word has spread among the monks of Thousand Buddhas Temple.
I know that the female benefactor living behind the temple is very beautiful, like a fairy coming to earth, the most beautiful woman in the world.
Even a monk cannot keep the six roots pure.
The matter became more and more serious, and even some pilgrims heard about it.
Some people sneaked to the mountain behind the temple to find out.
Lin Wanjie was walking halfway up the mountain when he heard someone talking.
"Have you heard? There is a very beautiful woman in the mountains behind Qianfo Temple."
"The hill behind Thousand Buddhas Temple? Is there any mistake?"
"Hey, can this be false? Haven't you noticed that more people have come to Qianfo Temple to offer incense recently?"
"seems like it."
"It's because of that woman! I heard that all the monks in the temple are crazy. They want to see her every day."
"What woman? She is clearly a vixen, a vixen from the mountains! She is too beautiful to be human."
"So magical? Then I have to go and take a look secretly."
"Together."
After hearing these discussions, Lin Wanjie was keenly aware that things were not simple.
He cheered up and said to the eldest lady: "It seems that we are right to come."
The eldest lady nodded with deep understanding.
"I didn't expect that it would be difficult to escape from the world in the pure place of Buddhism."
Lin Wanjie was disdainful: "How can there be a pure place in Buddhism?"
While talking, the two of them had already arrived at the gate of Qianfo Temple.
There were countless people waiting in front of the temple. Some were arguing with the monk guarding the door, as if they wanted to force their way into the temple, and were being laughed at.
"Don't think that no one knows. What you say about worshiping Buddha sincerely is not just to meet the female Bodhisattva in the back mountain."
"Hahaha. That's right, worshiping the Buddha is fake, but meeting the female Bodhisattva is real."
