Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 656 Public Opinion Orientation
The next day, the Theory of the Six Kingdoms written by Su Chen began to spread among the dignitaries, literati, and brothels and restaurants in Jinling City.

Su Chen produced it with enough gimmicks that many people rushed to read and recite it. The article was written about the views on the subjugation of Qin and the six kingdoms, but it was thought-provoking and expounded the inevitable fate of the six kingdoms.

This point of view can be combined with today's, which makes many scholars and dignitaries feel similar.

"Good article, good article, it is not weaker than "Liu Hou Lun" and "Red Cliff Fu". Only Jiangzuo Sulang can write such articles."

"This is not a parallel prose, but an argumentative prose. Su Chen's style of writing is unique, different from the parallel prose and Han Fu advocated by the Gufeng Movement, and it also has a profound influence on the style of our era."

"Relying on Qin with the land is like putting out a fire with a salary. If the salary is not exhausted, the fire will never be extinguished. It is too good to say. The imperial court sent Su Chen, and then cut the land to pay compensation. Isn't it just putting out a fire with a salary?"

"Everyone, although Song Dynasty can let us go now, the wolf ambition of the Song Dynasty has long been ready to unify the world. Whether it is the Shu Kingdom or my Tang Kingdom, only by fighting back hard and repelling the Song army can this country be able to fight back. If you can keep it, instead of asking for perfection in this way, ceding land and paying compensation, you will instead support the Song State and make them stronger, and will be looked down upon by the Northern Han and Shu Kingdoms, without any blood."

Some literati began to discuss this matter in restaurants and teahouses, and Jinling paper was expensive for a while.

Gradually, the wind direction of public opinion began to change.

"Hey, now the Tang State no longer has the courage to fight. It is much worse than that of the Liezu period. In other words, our Li and Tang courts have no fighting power. I really miss the Yang Wu regime in this land back then. I think back then Taizu Yang Xingmi led Heiyundu to fight in the south and north. Even the Later Han and Houzhou did not dare to go south to make mistakes. Gained a reputation!"

"Yes, I miss the court of Yang Wu at that time very much, but it is a pity that the court was misunderstood by the powerful minister Xu Wen's selfishness, harmed the court, and was seized by Xu Zhigao, a rebellious minister and traitor, and established the Li Tang court. We Jiangnan will be so humiliated!"

The public opinion began to guide towards the Yang Wu regime, which made the people feel good about Yang Wu again. There were secret spies in Heiyundu, who played a role in it, and caused public opinion to be dissatisfied with the Li Tang court.

In one day, many people in Jinling City knew about "Theory of the Six Kingdoms", and they rushed to pass it around and regarded it as a classic.

Scholars, apprentices of imperial students, court officials and senior officials all expressed their feelings after reading it. They felt that it was a pity that Su Chen, a great literary talent, should be given to the Song Dynasty.

Some scholars were even incited to go outside the palace gate to ask for orders.

However, for the sake of self-interest and short-term peace, the officials of the DPRK and China will not continue to write to persuade the official Li Yu to take back his life, because it is a done deal, and the officials hope to let the Song army retreat and end the crisis in Tang.

.........

The Imperial Palace, inside the Chengxin Hall.

After reading the transcript of "Six Kingdoms", Li Yu was surprised and angry. What surprised him was Su Chen's talent, which made him a little jealous. Ever since Su Chen was excellent in both poetry and prose this year, it completely hit Li Yu's lyrics The enthusiasm for writing, because no matter how I write, I feel that it is not as deep, beautiful, and philosophical as Su Chen's writing.

Therefore, Li Yu felt that his literary skills were regressing, and he was very jealous of Su Chen's talents.

What made him angry was that he felt the irony in Su Chen's article, he was dissatisfied with the court's actions, wrote the article satirically, and used the past as a warning to the present.

Now Li Yu's attitude towards Su Chen has changed, and he wants to send this person away from the bottom of his heart. Because of his existence, Li Yu has become less confident.

Without Su Chen in front of him, Li Yu felt that his ability and self-confidence would be strengthened, and he would be more comfortable. He also felt that he had face in front of the queen and other women.

Kings are often taboo about their meritorious deeds, but Li Yu is also dissatisfied with "talented masters".

Because although he is an emperor, he has no talent for governing the country, and the management of the government is relatively mediocre. The only thing he can enlighten himself is that he is a literati emperor, a model of talents, and can overwhelm the scholars of the Tang Dynasty with his literary achievements.

However, if even this part is covered up by the courtier, Li Yu will completely deny his own excellence in his heart. Therefore, he begins to resent and resist Su Chen.

Princess Yongning in the palace couldn't put it down after reading this article, her eyes filled with tears.

She was unwilling in her heart, but she knew that she and Su Chen were destined to have nothing to do with each other.

Once Su Chen leaves the Tang Kingdom, she will live in the palace, and there will be no chance to see Su Chen again.

In two years, if the emperor needs to win over a certain minister, he will betroth her to the minister's son and make a marriage marriage. This is Yongning's destination.

Maybe she had fantasized before that when Su Chen's contribution was enough, she hinted to the emperor that she could also choose Su Chen as his son-in-law. Although the hope was not high, at least there was a possibility.

But now, it is no longer possible.

.........

Cheng Dexuan and deputy envoy Liang Jiong got the article of "Six Kingdoms" in the national pavilion, after reading it repeatedly, they were full of admiration for Su Chen's talent.

Liang Jiong sighed for a long time: "I heard about Jiang Zuo Shulang when I was in the north, and I also bought his collection of poems and essays. Whether it is poems or articles, almost all of them are comparable to handed down works. It is really commendable. But after all, the north and the south are far apart, and many rumors are based on rumors, but today we are in Jinling, in the same city as this person, and we can feel the new article written by Jiangzuo Sulang at the first time. This shock!
"This Theory of the Six Kingdoms not only reveals the relationship between the Six Kingdoms and Qin, but also inspires people to think. Than, it's really eclipsed."

Cheng Dexuan said: "That's right, this Su Chen is indeed amazingly talented. With time, maybe he is really a literary master who has been passed down through the ages, comparable to Li Bai and Du Fu in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It is no wonder that such a talent even us Many ministers in the government and the court are eager to get this person.

"And have you noticed that the Theory of the Six Kingdoms discusses the relationship between the Six Kingdoms and Qin on the surface, but it is actually satirizing Tang, Wuyue, Shu, etc., bowing their heads to the Song Dynasty, or ceding land and paying compensation. It is the purpose of his writing articles, and it is really rare to be able to use the past to satirize the present in such a short period of time, combined with his own situation."

Hearing this, Liang Jiong said excitedly: "I can't help but want to meet this person. I heard that Su Chen returned to Jinling the day before yesterday and attended the court meeting yesterday. Should we find a chance to meet this person?"

Cheng Dexuan thought that he came with the mission ordered by Zhao Guangyi, and after seeing Su Chen, he would still find a chance to convey Zhao Guangyi's meaning in private.

He said: "Yes, we can invite him to drink and communicate when we find time. Tang Guo has already given up on him, so we and he belong to the Song Dynasty. Drinking to cheer up the mood can also be considered to appease Su Chen's emotions and make friends in advance some.

Liang Jiong clapped his hands and said with a smile: "That's right, that's what I want, so let's arrange the largest restaurant in Jinling?"

Cheng Dexuan nodded slightly, watching Liang Jiong leave to deal with this matter, he was thinking about how to meet Su Chen in private.
