Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

chapter 63

Runzhou Hanfu.

Su Chen was seeing a doctor seriously, being rusty, checking his pulse, and investigating his physical condition, but he felt that Han Xizai's condition was not serious, but he was too excited yesterday, and he had been drinking too much in recent days, often staying up late for fun, which led to the early stage of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. .

"Mr. Han, your body needs to cut down on drinking in the past few days and rest early every night. In just a few days, your condition will improve significantly."

Han Xizai smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Young Master Su."

Su Chen took out a small white bottle from the medicine box, which contained Baoxin Dan pills, and handed it to Han Xizai, saying, "Han is already at a high level, and because of excessive drinking, his heart is overloaded, and he has coronary heart disease. Yes, it is the Baoxin Dan Pill brewed through a secret recipe, as long as you take one pill when your heart is uncomfortable, you can quickly relieve angina pectoris and chest tightness."

Han Xizai was overjoyed when he heard the words. Since last year, he has often experienced symptoms of chest tightness, angina pectoris, and dizziness. He has also read it in the city, but they all said that he was overworked, debilitated, and drinking too much. After drinking some decoctions, the effect was average, and most of them only relieved a little at that time.

But occasionally it happens, people are outside the mansion, and it is too late to boil the medicine, so I can't put a medicine soup gourd by my side!What's more, if the decoction and medicine are not taken for two days, it is easy to get moldy. Whether it is carried around or stored, it is very inconvenient and unrealistic.

However, the pills Su Chen took out could be stored for a longer period of time, and they were very convenient to carry. They were also special medicines for angina pectoris, which could indeed make Han Xizai suffer less, and save his heart and life at a critical time.

"It's a pity that you don't inherit your ancestral business and continue to be the eldest son in your medical skills." Han Xizai sighed.

Su Chen smiled slightly: "It takes many years of clinical experience to practice medicine, and I am inexperienced, and I haven't done much research on medical pathology. I only occasionally take action to treat diseases. My subordinates are not here, and I don't intend to make a living and settle down! "

Han Xizai nodded and asked again, "Have you ever considered the imperial examination?"

Su Chen smiled wryly and shook his head. The imperial examination was by no means easy. At present, the examination of poetry and fu for the Jinshi examination in the Southern Tang Dynasty was the main test. The content of the examination followed the lessons of the Tang Dynasty. You can get in the middle.

In the imperial examinations of the Southern Tang Dynasty, there is one item of poetry and prose, and one of rhythm poems or ci can be selected, but the articles of parallel prose and fu are mandatory, which requires proficient in ancient classics, Confucian classics, Han and Tang articles, etc., according to the parallel prose. The neat, sonorous writing style not only writes some truths, but also writes brilliantly and splendidly.

Su Chen felt that he could copy a Song poem and Song Ci, but it was difficult to write an article. He needed to pile up all kinds of gorgeous rhetoric, rhythm and rhythm, poetry dictionary, etc., which was not much simpler than the eight-legged essay.

"Although I have a little understanding of poetry, I am not good at writing splendid articles. Even if I participate in the imperial examinations, I am afraid that it will be difficult to succeed. Let's forget it. The road to officialdom is difficult, so I can only consider the industry and industry, which can support my family and live a prosperous life. That's it." Su Chen told the truth, he really couldn't write parallel essays.

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Han Xizai was obviously a little surprised. In his opinion, as long as he is familiar with the classics and Confucian works, and works hard on poetry and fu from a young age, it is not difficult to write an eye-catching fu. And to write a famous poem, to shine, and to overwhelm all the readers, this is the most difficult.

It was hard for Han Xizai to imagine that Su Chen was able to write two lyric poems that were enough to pass on, "Voting Your Heart" and "Breaking a Time", but he would not be able to write a first-class parallel essay.

"Then... what level can you write? As long as you are average, you don't have to be outstanding. You can get into the top one just by relying on your poetic talent. After all, your Majesty, the current king, loves poetry, and Shilin has followed suit from top to bottom. To pick people by words, if the court scholars, Lin Qingliu, see your two poems, your talent name will definitely be able to disturb Jinling, and it will not be difficult for you to pass the imperial examination." Han Xizai still did not give up and continued to ask.

"This..." Su Chen felt bitter in his heart, so he asked him to write parallel essays. I'm afraid he could only write nonsense. He had only seen it in textbooks, but he had never written it himself. He only knew that he had to fight neatly, pay attention to rhythm, and understand other ways. Not profound.

In his general impression, the style of parallel prose originated in the late Han Dynasty, formed and prevailed in the Southern and Northern Dynasties.It uses four characters and six characters to determine sentences, and is called "four or six characters" in the world.After the imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty used poetry and fu to select scholars, their fu was derived from the law and fu of parallel prose; the official documents of the Tang Dynasty were also parallel prose, that is, four or six bodies.

Parallel prose has a lot of emphasis, flat rhythm, accommodating sentence patterns, and piling up rhetoric, which often affects the expression of the content itself, and it is difficult to clearly express what one wants to say.Therefore, in the mid-Tang Dynasty, after Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan advocated the ancient prose movement, parallel prose suffered a setback for the first time; but after Han and Liu passed away, parallel prose revived, and Li Shangyin, Wen Tingyun, and Duan Chengshi in the late Tang Dynasty were all good at it. Ranked No.16, it is known as "36 bodies".

In Su Chen's mind, the parallel prose that he could memorize, that is, a famous poem that has been passed down through the ages, Wang Bo's "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" in the Tang Dynasty.Among them, the rhetoric is gorgeous and the ingenuity is unique, such as "Luoxia and the lonely bird fly together, and the autumn waters are the same color as the sky", which amazes the ancient and modern literary world.

It's a pity that Wang Bo was from the Tang Dynasty, not the Song Dynasty. He appeared before the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Su Chen couldn't take it out for the scientific examination.

"Standard... I'm inferior!" Su Chen smiled shyly and embarrassedly.

After Han Xizai heard the words, he didn't believe that if Su Chen said "moderate," "below average," and "mediocre," he would reluctantly accept it.However, when he heard Su Chen say that the inferior, the worst level, he didn't believe it. He felt that this was Su Chen's intention to cover up his talent, and he didn't want to participate in the imperial examinations and entered the Southern Tang Shilin and Chaotang.

"How does Young Master Su think of the Song Kingdom in the north?" Han Xizai changed the subject, intending to ask him what he thought of current events.

Su Chen packed the medicine box. Anyway, there was no one in the house. Han Xiaopang had just left. There were only two people in the room, he and Han Xizai, so he didn't have much restraint. It has been four years since the establishment of the Song Dynasty. Now it is stabilizing the court situation, eliminating dissidents from the Zhou family, strengthening the imperial power, and at the same time digesting the financial resources, population, army, etc. of the Jianghuai land. The state of Song is about to begin the strategy of unifying the north and the south, and wars will begin in the world."

When Han Xizai asked this sentence, his original intention was to test whether he was suspected of smuggling to the north, and to see his attitude towards Song, to speculate on the deep meaning behind Su Chen's cover-up of talent in the Southern Tang Dynasty, but when he heard Su Chen say this. After the remarks, he was suddenly shocked, which coincided with his expectations.

A young man of weak age has such a vision for the situation in the country, which surprised him a lot.

Han Xizai was able to speculate on this. It was after his years of political experience, his rich qualifications and knowledge, and the news that the intelligence network kept coming back from Jiangbei. Combined, he made this judgment!

Even so, most of the officials in the Jinling court disapproved, many were indifferent, and very few people had the same prediction as Han Xizai.Today, unexpectedly, at the side of the bed, from the mouth of a young man, he could easily hear it, which made him extremely surprised and excited.
