Chapter 729 Poets of the prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 729 Poets of the prosperous Tang Dynasty
Du Fu's health has improved a lot because of his experience in Zhechong Duwei's Mansion in Longyou.

In the captain's mansion, he had to get up and rest at regular intervals every day. The daily food supply was sufficient, and there was a meal of milk for three meals. Du Fu, the captain of Zhechong, had to train with the recruits, and he even developed some muscles.

This time to prepare for the establishment of the Army Academy, Du Fu, a senior captain Zhechong, was also selected and transferred to Chang'an. He was responsible for compiling textbooks in the Military Armament and Operations Department as an instructor, and was responsible for formulating the training outline for recruits across the country.

Du Fu was very satisfied with the life in Longyou, but being able to return to the prosperous Chang'an still made Du Fu's whole family happy.

Du Fu's family quickly packed their bags and set off from Wuwei to Chang'an.

In order to send troops to Longshang, the road from Longyou to the pass was widened. Du Fu's family sat in the carriage to Chang'an, which was much more comfortable than when Du Fu was relegated to Longyou.

After the Tang army occupied Migan City, Lanzhou settled down again, and after the long-term war ended, the local order was restored.

Du Fu looked at the smiling people along the way, and wanted to write a poem, but suddenly felt that there was no poem to write.

Du Fu just smiled, and took out a military book again. When he arrived in Chang'an, he still had to write an outline for military training. It seemed that writing poetry could be put aside.

Du Fu's official career is going well now, the newly established military academy is not low in rank, and Du Fu has also been promoted to the sixth rank.

However, compared with Du Fu, Wang Wei's life is a bit uncomfortable.

Since being rescued by the player, Wang Wei has been pardoned by the emperor.

However, being captured on the charge of being a thief made old friends who had been with Wang Wei avoid it one after another.

And Wang Wei's younger brother, Wang Jin, was also implicated because of guaranteeing Wang Wei, and was appointed as a state official in the local area.

Wang Jin himself has a good official career, but because he was implicated, Wang Wei lamented at home all day long.

After being pardoned, Wang Wei retained the idle position of the prince Zhongyun. Now, taking advantage of the opportunity when the king of Yue became the prince, he wrote to the court to beg for the bones, and asked the court to recall his younger brother Wang Jin to Chang'an.

Of course, Li Tan also knew about Wang Jin using his high-ranking official Houlu to guarantee his brother.

Wang Jin's official reputation in the court is quite good, he is upright and capable, and Li Tan also uses his ideas.

However, there are a large number of players in the center now, and Li Tan also believes that the ministers should exercise hard in the prefectures and counties, so he decreed to reject Wang Wei's memorial, and rejected Wang Wei's memorial on the grounds that "could the court official position be granted privately because of personal circumstances?" ask.

However, the court still issued an order to transfer the demoted Wang Jin to the wealthy Bianzhou as the prefect, and let Wang Jin be responsible for dredging the Bian River.

Wang Wei had no intention of going to court, Li Tan also readily approved him to retire and return to his hometown, and also gave him gold and silver to return to his hometown.

The Poet Buddha, who had a prosperous official career in the first half of his life and was involved in political whirlpools in the second half of his life, can finally return to his hometown.

Wang Wei is also from the Wang family in Taiyuan. He set off from Chang'an to Hedong. In the car, he thought of He Zhizhang's song "The Young and the Boss Returned from Home", and couldn't help but burst into tears.

But the life of being imprisoned in Luoyang made Wang Wei no longer have the broad-minded and self-satisfied state of mind before. He wanted to pick up a pen to write poetry, but he also found that there were too many things accumulated in his heart. He really didn't know what to write, so he had to throw away the pen Shake your head and sigh.

On the Wanghai Building in Yangzhou, Gao Shi, the governor of Huainan, was feasting on famous people from Jianghuai.

Jiedushi is already a great official in the frontiers, and now the Tang court's attitude towards Jiedushi in various places is to gradually withdraw their orders, reassign observation envoys, or simply no longer set up positions above the state level.

Gao Shi was a hero in countering the rebellion. After the ban on the sea was lifted, Jianghuai's shipping department contributed a lot of tax revenue, and the imperial court ordered awards many times.

Gao Shi will definitely return to the court as an official after taking back the Jingjie, and only the prime minister can place Gao Shi in his position.

Yuan Zai, Jiangnan salt and iron envoy, and Wang Yadong, envoy of Shibo, were also present. These two are the gods of wealth in Jianghuai, and many scholars surrounded them.

At this time, a court envoy in scarlet clothes hurriedly boarded the Wanghai Tower under the leadership of the guards of the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion.

I only saw the court envoy holding white hemp paper, and immediately bowed to Gao Shi after boarding the Wanghai Tower.

Gao Shi immediately stood up and paid homage. The envoy unfolded the white hemp paper and read out the imperial edict written by Prince Li Tan.

Prime Minister!

Gao Shi was in a trance for a while. He thought of the years when he was not under control in Chang'an and had to be an official from the frontier.

He also thought of the scene where he wiped out the Yongwang rebellion and took office in Huainan.

Now that life is finally complete, he has entered the political affairs hall as the prime minister, and since then he has been courteous and assists the king.

Under the reminders of Yuan Zai and Wang Yadong, Gao Shi resigned from the will of worshiping the prime minister, and then gave in three times after the persuasion of many scholars, and finally accepted the imperial edict of worshiping the prime minister.

Wanghai Tower was once again very lively, Wang Yadong stood up and said:
"To be able to witness Gao Xiangguo paying homage to the prime minister today is a blessing for all of us, and congratulate the prime minister as a poem!"

Many scholars agreed one after another, and everyone looked at Gao Shi again. Yuan Zai stood up and said:
"Xiangguo's poetic talent is unparalleled, how can we be the same as others, please ask Xiangguo to write poems and essays first, and Wanghai Tower will be recorded in history books because of Xiangguo's poems and essays!"

The owner of Wanghai Tower downstairs was even more excited. If Gao Shi could leave his poems today, then Wanghai Tower would become a famous building in the world just like Tengwang Pavilion and Guanque Tower.

Gao Shi also took the pen and ink excitedly, but when he unfolded the rice paper, his mind was empty.

In fact, Gao Shi has seldom composed poems these years.

After leaving the frontier, Gao Shi no longer had the feeling of writing poems with pride when he was young. The ink fell on the rice paper, but Gao Shi did not write for a long time.

It was Wang Yadong who saw Gao Shi's embarrassment, and he hurried forward and said:

"Xiangguo upholds state affairs, pen and ink are important, how can he be a small Taoist poet? Please sit down, Xiangguo, and we will sing and write poems to congratulate Xiangguo!"

After saying this, Wang Yadong grabbed the brush and resolved Gao Shi's embarrassment.

Gao Shi smiled gratefully at Wang Yadong, and returned to the main seat surrounded by Yuan Zai.

Watching the thousands of sails racing on the sea outside the window, Gao Shi was a little disappointed. After all, he was going to leave the prosperous Jiangnan and return to Chang'an City.

The scholars present wrote poems on the Wanghai Tower one after another, hoping to attract the attention of the prime minister who is about to enter the political affairs hall through poems.

Gao Shi also thought about his youthful years. When he was in the army in the Northwest, he wrote so many magnificent frontier poems, didn't he also have the intention of winning the attention of his superiors?

But now that I have become the person sitting in the chief seat, I no longer have the mood to write poetry.

Cen Shen, an old friend who was in the northwest with Gao Shi, followed Guo Ziyi in Xiangzhou's suppression of the rebellion and made great contributions immediately. After the war was put down, Cen Can was appointed as the prefect of Shanzhou.

Shanzhou is Shangzhou, and the prefect of Shanzhou is also a high-ranking official from the third rank. After receiving the appointment from the imperial court, Cen Shen got drunk with his colleagues in the Xiangzhou military camp.

After more than half a year of fierce fighting on the Xiangzhou battlefield, Guo Ziyi and his subordinates also established a close relationship, but now that the war has settled down and everyone has been promoted, Guo Ziyi's contributions will also be recorded in the annals of history, and he will definitely be listed alongside the founding heroes.

After receiving the order, Cen Shen's subordinates are about to go to the post, and Guo Ziyi is now 62 years old, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to see each other from now on.

Everyone knows Cen Shen's poetic talent, and they all want to invite Cen Shen to write poems.

Only then did Cen Shen remember that he hadn't composed poetry for several years since he was sent to Guanzhong by Cao Lingzhong, the governor of Beiting, to suppress the rebellion.

Now his colleagues asked him to compose poems by himself, but Cen Shen opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.

Even Guo Ziyi looked at Cen Shen, who could only nod his head in embarrassment.

Guo Ziyi looked at Cen Shen, and Cen Shen cupped his hands and said, "Marshal, the world is peaceful, and there is no poetry for Shen Shen."

Guo Ziyi laughed and said: "I heard that Cen's poems of joining the army are magnificent and magnificent. You went out of the fortress twice and wrote more than 70 frontier poems. Now there is no war in the world, and you can't write poems. This is the golden age of the emperor! "

Immediately afterwards, Guo Ziyi simply stood up, using the sword as a hammer, knocked on the table, and sang the lyrics of "The Music of the King of Qin Breaking the Array".

"Resign from the head of state, and the prime minister will punish the traitors."

"Salty song breaks the formation music, and enjoys the people of Taiping together!"

Everyone in the account began to sing "Appreciate the Taiping People Together", and then the sergeants outside the account also sang along. Only after experiencing the cruelty of war can we know the value of peace.

Cen Shen also sang along. At this time, he also felt that there is no poem that can better represent his mood than this song "Qin Wang Breaks the Battle". Now that the world is peaceful, his frontier poems can also be closed.

Among the many poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, only Li Bai was still depressed.

He was involved in Yongwang's rebellion. At the beginning of Qianyuan, he was pardoned by the world and returned to Jiangling, but Mrs. Zong, who had been with Li Bai since the Yongwang's rebellion, finally broke her life and went to become a monk.

After Li Bai arrived in Jiangling, he felt lost. Although Mrs. Zong left all the family property to him, after several wars, Li Bai didn't have any family property to speak of.

Li Bai was going to seek refuge with his clan uncle Li Yangbing, but he met a businessman from Longyou in Jiangling. The businessman wanted to start a newspaper in Jiangling and hired Li Bai as an editor with a lot of money.

Li Bai was not interested in editing newspapers at first, but when he thought that he would achieve nothing in his life and had to rely on himself at an old age, and seeing the salary offered by the other party, he had no choice but to agree.

Li Bai racked his brains, and collected a lot of strange novels, and collected the content of the first issue of the newspaper.

Li Bai found the merchant with the sample magazine and asked him to name the newspaper. The Longyou merchant thought for a while, and finally said:
"Forgetting oneself is great, and being selfless is public. Let's call it "Ta Kung Pao."

Li Bai muttered the name of the newspaper, and thought of his wasted life, he couldn't help being crazy.

After the founding of the publication, Li Bai no longer wrote those magnificent poems, but instead criticized the current politics. He always took "Grand Duke" as his original intention, and pointed out the current problems. He wrote the commentary articles of each issue of the newspaper himself. His writing style was sharp and hit the mark. Crucially, "Ta Kung Pao" became a big seller.
