My identity as an ancient celestial master was exposed by yearning

Chapter 192 It's Totally Different From My Impression

When Xiao Chen said that this person was the author of a well-known poem.

Longing for everyone's expression of disbelief.

To know.

The ancients wrote poems based on emotion, and they could not be written out of thin air.

As the saying goes, "Poetry is born from the heart, and poetry is like the person."

If the author did not understand the lives of the people at the bottom of the society and experience the hardships of the people, how could he write such touching and sincere poems.

"Old man, is it really Li Sikong who wrote "Compassion for the Farmers?"

Peng Yuchang couldn't help asking.

Because when I was in primary school, I had to recite the words "When we hoe the crops at noon, the sweat drips down to the soil. Who knows that every grain of Chinese food is hard work."

The first impression in my mind is that a person who can write such poems must be a respectable great poet with a heart in his heart, a heart full of people, and his character is absolutely unnecessary to question.

But who would have thought that in the mouth of the old man, he is a very extravagant and wasteful person who lives a luxurious and corrupt life in a pampered way.

"That's right, it was he who wrote it." Xiao Chen nodded and continued.

"Li Shen's ability to write such poems is inseparable from his early poverty experience.

His father died when he was 6 years old.Due to the decline of his family, he could only follow his mother in exile. During this period, he suffered a lot. He was used to seeing the warmth and coldness of people since he was a child, and he also witnessed the precarious life of farmers.

This is why Li Shen was able to write "Compassion for Farmers". "

"It's just that Li Shen's thoughts have undergone earth-shaking changes after he was admitted to Jinshi and entered his official career.

With the promotion of his official career step by step, Li Shen became more and more inflated, and gradually forgot his original simple self, and became a full-fledged corrupt official and a cruel official of the common people. "

Xiao Chen happened to see a plate of stir-fried chicken tongue on the dining table, and said.

"Do you know that just because Li Shen loves to eat chicken tongues, he has to have a plate for every meal, so 300 live chickens have to be killed for one plate, and the chickens that need to be slaughtered in the backyard are piled up in a day."

"That's too wasteful. There are so many of us, and a fried dish is less than one-tenth of his." Huang Lei, who was cooking, complained.

Who would have thought that this poem was taught not to be wasted when I was a child, but today I have educated the author of this poem.

"Actually, Li Shen was criticized not only for his extravagant life, but also for his conduct as an official.

Before Li Shen made his fortune, he often visited a man named Li Yuanjiang as a guest, so every time he saw Li Yuanjiang, he respectfully called him "Uncle".

However, when Li Shen met after his fortune, Li Yuanjiang took the initiative to lower his seniority, calling himself "brother" and "nephew", but Li Shen was still dissatisfied, until Li Yuanjiang called himself "grandson", Li Shen It was only reluctantly accepted, which became a joke at the time.

Another thing is that there is an inspector surnamed Cui, who has a friendship with Li Shen as a scholar in the same discipline.So I came to visit him specially, and just arrived at the inn, my servant had a fight with a citizen.

Li Shen indiscriminately sentenced the servants and citizens to death, and ordered Cui Guanguan to be arrested.Directly reprimanded loudly: "We have known each other in the past, since you came here, why don't you come to meet each other?"

After Cui Xunguan listened, he quickly bowed his head and apologized, but Li Shen didn't think about the old relationship at all, and actually blamed Cui Xunguan for 20 boards and escorted him to Jiangnan.

This is "Uncle Li Gongzong turned into a grandson, and the old man suddenly became a prisoner".

Because Li Shen was a brutal official, the local people were often frightened. Many people even crossed the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River to escape. His subordinates reported to him: "Many local people have escaped."

But Li Shen replied: "Have you ever seen wheat held in your hands? The plump grains are always at the bottom, and those chaffs go with the wind and don't need to be reported."

"How could he become like this and say such things." Huang Lei said angrily, frowning.

"Li Shen's transformation may have a lot to do with the environment at that time. After all, the power field in the middle and late Tang Dynasty was already extravagant and lustful. It's getting harder."

Xiao Chen said lightly.

"But Li Shen's transformation is ultimately due to his own desires. The greater a person's desires, the lower the bottom line."

After everyone heard it, they couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Whether it was before or now.

There are really very few people who can not forget their original intention and stick to it all the time.

"Old ancestor, you know so much history."

Xiao Yueyue couldn't help sighing.

"I'll go back and see if I can integrate these allusions into cross talk, so that everyone can understand."

Xiao Chen said indifferently: "The more books you read, the more you will naturally know."

The crowd didn't suspect anything. With so many ancient books hidden in Mr. Xiao's room, it's not surprising that he knows some little-known histories.

But in fact Xiao Chen knew these things, that's because he was also a witness.

Watching Li Shen's transformation from a young man who was once passionate and worried about the country and the people to a sinner who corrupted the law, exploited the common people, and abused his power.

It's just that Xiao Chen never interfered.

Along the way in the long river of history, he has seen too much.

……

the next day.

Xiao Chen went to the back mountain to practice early in the morning as usual before returning to the mushroom house.

when coming back.

Yearning for everyone is basically up.

"Old ancestor, where have you been?" Xiao Yueyue didn't know Xiao Chen had this habit because she lived in a new house.

Before Xiao Chen could answer, Huang Lei helped to answer, "The old man will go to the back mountain every morning to...exercise."

Because the live broadcast is now on, Huang Lei didn't say that Xiao Chen went to practice.

"When are you and Xiao Lin planning to leave today?" Xiao Chen asked Xiao Yueyue and Qi Lin.

They had already greeted Xiao Chen yesterday, because there will be a performance in two days, and they need to go back in advance to prepare, so they are going back today.

"Should be leaving at noon." Xiao Yueyue and Qilin looked at each other and replied.

Xiao Chen nodded, and suddenly grinned and said, "That's a good relationship. It just so happens that they finish their work in the morning before leaving. They can take it easy today."

When Xiao Yueyue and Qilin heard this, black lines appeared on their faces.

They thought that the ancestors were reluctant to part with them and wanted to keep them to stay for a few more days. They were quite touched at first, but they didn't expect to want them to do the work before they left.

Yearning and the others laughed from ear to ear.

The audience in the live broadcast room were also amused by them.

"Haha."

"Grandpa, it's too much."

"Killing me."

"The old man is too real."

"At first I thought it was another farewell and retention drama, but I didn't expect it to be a comedy drama."

"I want to know how much shadow area Xiaoyueyue and Qilin have in their hearts now."

"I feel sorry for Xiaoyueyue and Qilin for a second."

"..."

Early in the morning, the entire live broadcast room was immersed in a sea of ​​joy.

At this time.

Peng Yuchang, who was reading the news, said suddenly.

"Huh? Is this announced?"
