I write novels to become a saint

Chapter 21 Publication of Anthology
[One year later, Li Shangyin was invited by Lu Hongzheng, the envoy of Wuning Jiedu, to serve as an aide in Xuzhou. Lu Hongzheng was very optimistic about Li Shangyin, and he was on the rise in his career. If Lu Hongzheng developed smoothly, Li Shangyin might not have a chance to stand up.

Unfortunately, Lu Hongzheng died of illness a year later.

After being admitted as a Jinshi, his mentor Linghu Chu died of illness; during his rising career, his mother and father-in-law died of illness; when he returned to the court, the emperor died; when he went to Guilin, Zheng Ya was demoted; when he came to Xuzhou, Lu Hongzheng died of illness...

Li Shangyin broke his thighs!
The only strong Linghu family also made him abandon it because of marriage, so the source of everything went back to the day when he first met Wang Yanmei in 837.

If Li Shangyin hadn't chosen love and Wang Yanmei, probably his official career would not have been so difficult and bumpy?

In 851, Wang Yanliu died of illness after writing a greeting letter to Li Shangyin. After their marriage, they got together less often and separated more.

Li Shangyin is also very sorry for his wife. If Wang Yanliu hadn't chosen himself back then, maybe he would have lived a prosperous life, rich in clothes and food, right?
But Wang Yanliu has never regretted her choice, and even thinks that choosing Li Shangyin is the most correct choice she has made in her life, because even in the last letter, she did not write any complaints to her husband, and did not even inform her husband. She just didn't want him to worry about his own exhausted physical condition.

Did Li Shangyin regret it?
of course not!

After Wang Yanmei's death, Li Shangyin once had the idea of ​​becoming a monk.

In autumn, when I went to work in central Sichuan, I found out my wife's dying letter. It happened to be heavy rain, "I asked you that the date of return is not yet due, and the night rain in Bashan floods the autumn pool. Why should we cut the candles in the west window together, but when it rains in Bashan at night?" It rained heavily in Bashu, and he lost the person with whom he could talk about the night rain in Bashan.

Li Shangyin never remarried or took concubines for the rest of his life, so he stayed alone all his life.

He wrote many gorgeous love poems, but he was a rare and affectionate person in that era.

In 856, Li Shangyin, who returned to Chang'an, wandered alone in the countryside. At the age of 43, he was still young and his heart was failing. He wrote "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it is only near dusk"!
Two years later, Li Shangyin died of illness in Zhengzhou! 】

In Huojia County, in a simple hut on a high mountain in the countryside, Li Shangyin, who had lived in seclusion for many years, sighed deeply, recalling the scenes in the article.

It was really a new feeling, like experiencing another life.

"What a wonderful feeling!"

Beside him, Wang Yanmei, who was dressed in short skirts and plain clothes, sighed.

[Half-sage Li He has already hit the table with admiration! 】

In this article, Lin Qian consciously reduced the weight of poetry and literary talent, and focused on describing poignant and beautiful love stories. Naturally, there were fewer literati who praised the audience, but with the support of a large number of female fans, this article is being compared to the previous two. The article passed the test on the "Book Sea" list faster.

Naturally, it has also gained more attention.

"This is the end?"

Luo Jing, the treasurer of Qunyu Pavilion was a little unsatisfied, but at the same time he was a little worried. After all, he spent 1000 taels of real money in exchange for just a few words, which made him a little worried about the effect of this advertisement.

"Enter the study, and after an hour, the article will come out!"

Looking at the information sent by his subordinates, Tao Feipeng was almost sure that the author of these articles was Lin Qian!
Dare to post an article while being watched by him, this is simply provoking him!
In Changsha Mansion, the magistrate's back office, Li Huachun slapped the table angrily.

"Go ahead!"

"What kind of party struggle between Niu and Li, this is clearly alluding to the current court struggle between the new party and the old party!"

"Division Xuanjing? What are you guys eating? How many days has it been? No clue at all?"

In Wenji Pavilion, Cao Mengruan looked at the article in front of him, and felt relieved. He finally didn't have to think about whether this article should be included in the anthology.

Because "Collected Works" will be published the day after tomorrow, and the edition was finalized yesterday, and his duty for this issue has already ended, so whether this article should be published in "Collected Works" will be left to the next editor-in-chief, Daru!
Lin Qian, who caused all this commotion, was having dinner with his younger sister.

When writing the first article, he would enter the Wen Palace to check the data from time to time, but now, he has been able to take it lightly.

What worried him a little was that his elder brother didn't come back for dinner.

It simply didn't make him worry for too long. At the end of Xu Shi, when both of them were about to jump in anxiety, the eldest brother returned to the small courtyard of the Lin family from the night.

Travel-stained, seems to have traveled a long way.

"There's a big case these days, so you don't have to wait for me for dinner tonight."

The eldest brother's brows and eyes were full of exhaustion, and he returned to the room after explaining a word, turned off the lights, and should have rested.

Lin Qian and the two suddenly realized that as police officers, traveling far was a common occurrence. They had experienced this many times over the years, but in the past, the eldest brother would greet him in advance. This time, it seemed that they encountered some temporary case.

……

The next day, when Lin Qian stepped into the classroom, Li Changce was already sitting at the top. It wasn't that Lin Qian was late, it was just that Li Changce came early.

The classroom was still noisy, some were discussing Lin Qian's new article, some were discussing the poem Chen Ruikang wrote a few days ago... It was a mess.

Li Changce did not stop it.

Because, today is the day when "Anthology" is released!

Even Li Changce listened to the discussions of the students while paying attention to the movement of Wen Palace.

Zhang Zehan sat downcastly, not even noticing Lin Qian came in.

"I heard from them that there is a great possibility that Chen Ruikang's poem will be included in the Collected Works."

"The last time Chen Ruikang invited you, you should really accept it. It's only five taels of silver."

It wasn't until Lin Qian sat next to him that he murmured in a sour voice that the significance of "Collected Works" to scholars was no worse than that of the imperial examination to a certain extent. To miss such a grand event, even if he had already recognized the reality, he could bear it. I can't help feeling a little sorry.

Lin Qian really wanted to comfort him, your best friend's articles have all entered the top [-] on the "Book Sea" list!
But he can't say, and the "Book Sea" list is not as good as "Anthology" in the hearts of scholars. In many cases, the top ten in the book sea list is not as happy as "Anthology".

Of course, the top ten poems and articles on the book list are usually included in the anthology.

However, Lin Qian was not confident that his articles would be included in the "Anthology". He still had to pay more attention to the literary nature of the anthology.

The students looked at Lin Qian and Zhang Zehan more and more playfully. They had been waiting for this day for a long time!
"Published... released..."

Suddenly, someone yelled, there was a bang, and the classroom fell into silence for an instant, and everyone's minds sank into the Wen Palace.

　I wish everyone Qingming...um...you can be happy every day, hehe
