Chapter 257

The summer is scorching hot, the sun is baking the land in the south of the Yangtze River like a stove. After the rainy season, it is the hot summer period. The daily weather is like a steamer, hot and stuffy.

There are very few pedestrians on the street, even if it is a big tree covered with shade, it is also listless and listless in such hot weather.

Fortunately, the smallpox crisis in Runzhou has been lifted, and the people don't have to worry about the impact of the plague, and they can spend the summer at home with peace of mind.

"Three tubes!"

"Bar!" A woman's voice sounded, and then said: "Nine!"

"No, it's all corner cards, it's too stingy." A woman complained.

"Fifty thousand!" A beautiful voice sounded.

"Again—"

The voices of several young girls resounded in the hall of Su Mansion. The four girls, Peng Qingqing, Liu Mo Nong, Zhou Jiamin, and Ling'er, played mahjong made of blue and white porcelain, having a great time.

This was Su Chen's idea, let the Bai family pottery workshop burn it out, the look and feel are good, like jade, very delicate, it can let the girls pass the time at home.

The essence of mahjong is four-player domino game. It originated in China and is a popular game invented by the ancients. It evolved from a card game called "horse tag". This card game was produced in the Ming Dynasty. At that time, there were sixty cards in a deck.During the card fight, each of the four families takes ten cards, and then takes and plays cards in turn until a winner emerges at the end.

The mahjong designed by Su Chen is a relatively mature model in later generations. There are 120 tiles. Sixteen wind tiles and eight flower tiles are removed. There are only arrow tiles, Wanzi tiles, Suozi tiles, and bobbin tiles. It is easy to learn. After he took it out, he briefly introduced it, and the girls understood it.

This kind of game is a good way for women to pass the time. In order to keep Zhou Jiamin, Su Chen used this trump card to play cards with Qingqing, Linger and others. She was soon attracted, addicted to it, and couldn't think about it " Beijing".

Su Chen didn't lose his mind, but was in the study, carefully reviewing the books, classics and history collections. He didn't have much confidence in the imperial examinations and writing articles by himself, but it would be beneficial to learn more anthology knowledge, etc., especially when talented Xu came here often Accompanied reading, annotation and explanation, and mutual discussion are of great help to him in reading books.

"Bai Juyi, whose style name is Letian, is famous for his satirical poems. In "Celin" written for the imperial examination, he put forward the viewpoint that "the emperor should not do the affairs of the ministers", such as "the ministers follow the way of the emperor, and the government is specialized; Chaos, dictatorship and chaos have the same disadvantages'; he advocated the monarch's 'the king should only choose his own person', especially emphasizing the importance of the prime minister..."

Xu Qingwan explained to Su Chen the application of Tang Wenxuan and many articles written by everyone in the imperial examination.

"Fuck it..." Su Chen muttered to himself, thinking that this word was very powerful.

Xu Qingwan continued: "In the mid-Tang Dynasty, Han, Liu, Bai and other literary masters pointed out that the articles of the Han Dynasty were flashy, the Confucianism of the Han Dynasty focused on etiquette and theology, and the Confucianism of the Han Dynasty strictly abided by the family law and the teacher's method. They should not be imitated, and should even be abandoned. Therefore, they surpassed the Han Dynasty and chose the pre-Qin Confucianism as the direction of return, so there was Han Yu's orthodoxy..."

Su Chen nodded slightly. He roughly flipped through these when he was studying. The ancient prose movement in the middle Tang Dynasty was represented by Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan. aspect.

"Well, of course I know about this. The ancient prose movement advocated by Han, Liu and others opposed the over-polished and four-six-sentence duality in language, and required the use of simple and lively pre-Qin prose to replace the gorgeous and rigid parallel prose; the content rejected the Northern and Southern Dynasties. The extravagant and decadent literary fashion requires the implementation of Confucian moral education in the articles, rebuilding the ethical order, and writing to convey the truth!"

Su Chen learned the theoretical knowledge from the textbook, and explained it in an orderly manner at this time, which immediately made talented Xu's eyes light up, revealing a look of approval.

Xu Qingwan said: "Mr. Han's "Original Dao", "On the Bone Table of Buddha", "Original Nature", "Teacher's Discussion", "Jin Xue Jie", etc., Yixuan, have you read all of them?"

Su Chen nodded. He had only memorized "Teacher's Talk" before, and read the rest of the articles in the past two days. Fortunately, his memory is super strong, and he can memorize it after reading it two or three times. This is the only thing he feels enhanced after time travelling. place.

Xu Qingwan said again: "However, our official family loves the way of poetry, and is not interested in the ancient prose movement in the mid-Tang Dynasty. He prefers gorgeous and beautiful articles, so you should give full play to your talent in poetry writing. Write the article beautifully, gorgeously and smoothly.”

Su Chen nodded: "Yeah, I'll try my best."

"It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day, how about writing a paragraph now?" Talented Xu said with a smile.

"Here it is again!" Su Chen sighed secretly in his heart, this talented Xu provoked him to write articles, tested his writing ability, maybe she was still a little worried about his writing.

Su Chen was helpless, and said with a straight heart: "Okay, recently I read ancient books every day, and I have feelings about history, so I will write an article on "Liu Hou Lun"."

Xu Qingwan originally wanted to test it out, but she didn't expect that Su Chen would really want to start writing this time, she immediately beamed with joy, and said, "Okay, you write it, and I'll watch from the side to see how you write parallel essays and prose. Can write smoothly."

Su Chen nodded slightly, picked up a pen and dipped in ink, and began to silently write an article by Su Shi "Liu Hou Lun" on a piece of blank paper:

"The so-called heroes in ancient times must have the virtue of surpassing others. People who can't bear the human feelings, see the humiliation, draw their swords, stand up and fight, this is not brave. Don't be surprised, don't be angry if you don't have any reason. The person he is holding is very big, and his ambition is very far..."

This article is one of a series of arguments written by Su Shi in the sixth year of Emperor Renzong's Jiayou reign in Song Dynasty, when he went to Beijing to rush for the exam.According to the "Historical Records Liuhou's Family" records of Zhang Liangqi's acceptance of the book and his assistance in Liu Bang's unification of the world, the importance of the strategy of "tolerating small anger and making big plans" and "raising the best and waiting for the weak" is demonstrated.

The content of the writing is vertical and horizontal, full of twists and turns, and the writing is eloquent and full of momentum, which fully embodies Su Shi's Wang Yang's unrestrained style of historical theory.

At this time, Su Chen wrote it eloquently, and it also has the demeanor of a great talent.

Experts know if there is one as soon as they make a move. Xu Qingwan was amazed just by looking at the brushwork at the beginning.

If you really don’t need to write, you can be astonishing in your literary talent!

Xu Qingwan stood aside, quietly watching Su Chen write close to a thousand characters, and was already moved by the style and momentum of the writing, as well as the aspirations and aspirations in the writing, which surpassed the charm and gracefulness of the Five Dynasties' writing, and had a bold and unrestrained style .

Her eyes condensed on the manuscript paper for a while, and stared at Su Chen's face again.

This scene dealt a heavy blow to her heart, once again breaking the cocoon of the talented girl's heart, and breaking it open a lot.

After Su Chen stopped writing, Xu Qingwan was a little stunned, lost in a daze.

"Boom!"

At this time, there were bursts of thunder outside, and the weather finally ushered in a heavy rain in the afternoon, with strong winds and showers.

Xu Qingwan was awakened by the thunder. In her mind, she couldn't help but think of a poem: "When the pen falls, the wind and rain startle, and the poem becomes weeping ghosts and gods... The ancients are sincere!"
