Kaiyuan Merry

49. "Early Spring"

() The young woman sat there very casually, with one hand supporting her chin, the other on her knee holding a wicker, wearing a dark blue long gown, the blue is so deep, so refreshing Spleen, so depressing.

Under the blowing of the breeze, the sleeves of the clothes are fluttering, moving with the wind, and the long hair draped on the back, with several exquisite pearl hairpins on the head, which makes people feel graceful and luxurious, but not at the same time It's too gaudy, but what makes people wonder is that she is obviously a married young woman, why doesn't she put her hair up... and the attractive shoulders exposed and the bottomless, lonely smile, coupled with the following With the purple plum blossoms as the background and the singing of the oriole as the accompaniment, this is a beautiful dynamic picture, which instantly ignited Wang Wei's inspiration.

Wang Wei took a deep look at the young woman, as if wanting to remember this scene forever, he hurried to the pavilion, and under Wei Zhi's astonished gaze, he quickly picked up his pen and wrote a song "If it's too late."Ai Shui looks at the makeup and sits, and the shameful person stands up with flowers.The fragrance is afraid of being blown away by the wind, and the clothes are wet with dew.In the green gate of the jade boudoir, the sun falls and the car enters.You Yanyi lovesickness, and cry to the colorful curtain.Yijun is always in a dream, and Guiwan is even more suspicious.It is not as good as the red-eave swallow and the amphibious green grass.

This is a five-character regulated poem. Generally speaking, regulated poems are more valuable than quatrains, because regulated poems are more standardized and neat, while quatrains can be more casual.

Seeing Wang Wei's poetic enthusiasm, Wei Zhi quickly recovered from his previous thoughts, and saw the first four lines of the poem, "Purple plum blossoms for the first time, and the song of yellow birds is still astringent. Who beat Yang Nu, who made it so If it’s not as good as spring. Love the water and look at the make-up and sit, the shameful person will stand in the flowers. The fragrance will be blown away by the wind, and the clothes will be wet with dew.” You know this is true.

He subconsciously looked towards the river, and he naturally saw the young woman in the dark blue gown, who was sitting lazily by the river, but there was a young girl beside her, talking to the young woman, the expression on her face was because of the distance. A little far away, and can't see clearly.

And the last four sentences of Wang Wei's poem "In the green gate of the jade boudoir, the sun falls and the fragrant car enters. You Yanyi lovesickness, and cry to the colorful curtain. Recalling the king's long dream, and returning to the evening is more suspicious. It is not as good as the red-eave swallow, amphibious green grass When." Naturally, it is processed by the poet through the art of imagination.

After all, it's not the time for the sun to set yet, and this young woman may not necessarily live in "Qingmen", but I have to admit that the last sentence "is not as good as the red-eave swallow, when the amphibious green grass is." It's really wonderful . <, the complex psychology of staying alone in an empty room at night.Wang Wei skillfully uses the contrast method to describe the sprouting of lovesickness buried in the young woman's heart in the bright spring light, and the enjoyment of play adds to the pain of lovesickness. Enhanced the artistic appeal of the psalms. The subtlety of "Xing" lies in the contrast, using music to express sorrow, and using swallows flying together to set off the loneliness of the woman. The source of this inspiration is the lonely smile on the young woman's face.

Smiling like flowers, lonely like fireworks.

Relying on the explosive inspiration and flying literary talent, Wang Wei put down the pen after writing the poem, as if he had exhausted all his strength, and sat there slumped against the railing, with a satisfied look on his face.

He originally thought that poetry was just a tool for him to become famous and enter the officialdom, but now he realized the true meaning of poetry when he finished such a poem that even he was extremely satisfied with.

You don’t have to take it too seriously and sacredly. It’s just a way to express your emotions. First of all, you should write your own joy, from the bottom of your heart. Or if you deal with poems written to please others, you will fall behind.

As with poetry, so with articles.

When Wang Wei wrote this poem, he didn't think at all about how to use this poem to gain reputation. He completely devoted himself to all his feelings, and he didn't do as well as "Red Peony". "A higher level.

Of course, these two poems by Wang Wei cannot be compared with his later excellent poems such as "Mountain Dwelling in Autumn" and "Envoy to the Fortress" that have broken away from "skills" and risen to "realm". But considering that Wang Wei is only 17 years old now, his talent in poetry can be seen if he can write this kind of poems that are good enough to enter the top grade.

Wei Zhi couldn't help but read it carefully again, and after a long time of recollection, he showed a slight smile, but teased in a cold tone: "If the poems written by Thirteenth Lang are given to those lonely young women in boudoirs, they will definitely like it." Let Thirteen Lang enter the curtain to relieve their loneliness... This poem is not inferior to your "Luoyang Daughter's Journey" last year."

Wang Wei felt that Wei Zhi was really not suitable for joking, and his cold and arrogant tone could not be changed... No, when Wei Zhi really entered the officialdom, it might change. It's not bad to stick to one's heart, and throw away those minor details.

"I wrote this poem just for myself, and I didn't mean to use poetry to win attention. Writing poetry in this state is really fun and thoughtful." Wang Wei drank another glass of wine. It was invented, but it has not been popularized yet, so Wang Wei drank this so-called fine wine with low alcohol content without any pressure, just like drinking beer with his classmates in college.

Although Wei Zhi was not good at writing poems, he still agreed with Wang Wei's statement. When writing poems and compositions, he had a purer mind and could write better works.

But even though he knew about such a thing, he still said with some regret: "It's a pity that I am the only one here to appreciate Thirteen Lang's wonderful works. If there are other people, I think Thirteen Lang's reputation will be even higher. I’m done.” I couldn’t write such poems as <Xing’ in a short period of time at the banquet, but today’s ‘time, place and people’ are the only way I can write them in one go. I really want to thank that person woman. "

Wang Wei glanced over there, and Wei Zhi suggested again: "It's better to meet that woman and present her with a poem."

However, Wang Wei shook his head. He guessed that this lazy and charming young woman might be Li Longji's concubine. It would be a death to donate poems by herself. It might not be a concubine, but with Wang Wei's prudence, he would definitely not do such impulsive things just because of his beauty.Moreover, if it was really a concubine, his poem would not be appropriate. He defined the woman in the poem as a widow whose husband died.

As if he had already understood Wang Wei's "innocence" towards beauty, Wei Zhi didn't say much. He always respected his friends' ideas. Perhaps in the eyes of others, Wang Wei was more "chic and unrestrained" than Wei Zhi, but In fact, as far as playing with women is concerned, Wei Zhi, a noble son of the iceberg, has much more experience than Wang Wei.

Not to mention the "upright" Cui Hao, Wei Zhi and Cui Hao have the same thing in that they treat women as playthings, while the former's cleanliness is that he never touches prostitutes and only plays with virgin maidservants. Once you play it, you sell it, and the latter is open to anyone who comes. As long as it is a woman, you can do it if you can see it. After doing it, you will not change your opinion on women.

Wang Wei rested for a while, and suddenly picked up the charcoal pen used to outline the lines of the draft. This is the unique brush he asked Cui Yingluo to help him make. He said to Wei Zhi: "Yin Qing, look at me using my newly created drawing How to draw this picture that fits the song "Early Spring Trip"."

"Oh? What is it?" Wei Zhi became interested. In this era, people who are good at calligraphy usually dabble in traditional Chinese painting. He wanted to see what innovations Wang Wei had.

"You also know that the paintings of our era all pay attention to the charm of an artistic conception. Often when painting landscape figures, there is a kind of hazy and elegant beauty. The appropriate and classic blank space will make people talk about it, but I think, Can the landscape figures be painted more like real people and more realistic, even if the artistic conception is lost, it still has a sense of beauty."

While talking eloquently, Wang Wei skillfully moved the pen. This charcoal pen is used to make drafts, which is much easier to control than using a fine brush. The background of the picture - river water, purple plums, willows, grass, white clouds.

Wang Wei used this charcoal pen to make a draft first, which is very similar to modern sketches. Although there were charcoal pens in ancient times, they were not mainstream. They were used by the poor. The invention of charcoal pens was even earlier in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

There is such a little historical story:

Ge Hong, a medical scientist in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, grew up in a very poor family.Although he is eager to learn and write, his family cannot afford books and pens.

Once, he lit a fire in the stove pit, put in dry wood, picked out charcoal, and his hands were blackened.Suddenly, he jumped up and shouted: "I have a solution!" His mother startled him and asked, "Why are you yelling so much?" Ge Hong scratched the ground with charcoal a few times, innocently Tell my mother that charcoal is my pen, and the stone slabs on the mountain are my paper. It doesn't cost money and can't be used up.

The next day, he took some "charcoal pencils" up the mountain to cut firewood.Unexpectedly, it started to rain halfway, and the charcoal was soaked, and he shed tears sadly.At night, he recited the poem: "You can pick lotus in the south of the Yangtze River, lotus leaves and He Tiantian...", and came up with a good way to wrap charcoal with lotus leaves.

From then on, he went up the mountain to cut firewood every day, always carrying charcoal wrapped in dried lotus leaves.When I was tired of chopping firewood, I practiced and studied on the stone slabs and rock walls around me, and never stopped.Relying on this inexhaustible pen and inexhaustible paper, he learned from the cabinet of books left by his father before his death, borrowed all the books from nearby people, and even borrowed countless books from rich relatives in Danyang City. Read the book next time.In this way, his writing became better and better, and he wrote more and more poems silently.

This is the invention of the charcoal pencil.

Cui Yingluo has strong hands-on skills, and she doesn't like to write with that kind of soft brush. The charcoal pens she made herself became her choice. Seeing that she used them easily, Wang Wei naturally asked her to make a few for himself. , although it is not as easy to control as the pencils of later generations, the effect of using it is not bad. The most important thing is that Wang Wei's painting skills are enough to support him with ease.
