Emperor Yongzheng: Eagle Bow Sirius

Chapter 76
Dazed for a long time, Hongli turned his face and smiled and said: "This time I'm going to make a fool of myself, although it's not a big deal, is there any way to make it up?" Liu Molin bowed his head in thought, then smiled and said, "If you make a mistake, you might make a mistake. Come up with a new idea! Fourth master, I thought about a few words, fourth master first write it on the paper, think about it, and then copy it to the painting?" After saying that, he got up and walked and chanted:
The sound of the eaves is like a rain spring, the sound of the trough is like a waterfall, and the sound of the speech is like a trick.The river of bamboo trees is tossing, the chime of Taiwan and ponds is clear, and the ponchos and carts converge. "Good!" Hongli praised with a pen, "It's very interesting to return to heaven. It's just a little bit flat." But Liu Molin changed his mouth and chanted loudly:

Suddenly shake the roof tiles, suddenly drum the thunder, suddenly decorate the armor!Meng Zhuang wrote three sounds, Shi Kuang Ye eight winds, Zou Yan blows six lords.Guang Lingtao in sickness, resting on the Chinese amulet, and playing in the courtroom——Listening when drunk can wake you up, listening to Coke when you're hungry, cleaning up dirt when you want to listen, discerning what's not from the mind, what's heard doesn't come from the west, and the sound doesn't come from the ear through!
A poem with three lines and one rhyme ended here, Liu Molin felt very proud, turned his face and smiled and said, "Fourth Master, can you still read it?" Liu Molin glanced at it and said, "Not only has it been seen before? It's novel and elegant, it's really an innovative work!"

"Wonderful essays are appreciated together, different meanings are analyzed with the same meaning, and there are innovative works, let us feast our eyes on them!"

Suddenly there were a few people talking and laughing outside the door.When Hongli looked up, it was Fang Bao. Monk Wenjue came in, and Wu Sidao followed with crutches.Hongli hurriedly put down his pen, took two steps towards him, stopped reservedly, and said with a bow: "The head monk, Mr. Fang, Mr. Wu, you are back. Where is Uncle Thirteen? Please sit in the easy chair here." Only then did Liu Molin know that this unattractive crippled man was "Mr. , but it was hard to say anything, arched his hands on his chest, and said with a smile: "Master Wenjue and Mr. Fang, one is the emperor's Buddhist substitute, and the other is a friend of the emperor, and they are very familiar with each other. This Mr. Wu has never met. Dare to ask Taifu, which yamen are you congratulating on now?" Hongli hurriedly laughed and said, "Oh, I forgot to introduce. Mr. Wu is now praising Xiangxiang under the curtain of Tian Wenjing-this is Liu Molin, a talented scholar in this age. It's his handwriting, with a wonderful eloquence. Mo Lin—is your name 'Jiang Zhou'?"

Liu Molin smiled and said, "It was originally called 'Liu Jiangzhou', but later some people said it was like 'Liu Pei Jiangzhou', so I didn't need the word, and I simply called it Mo Lin, even if it is true color." Wu Sidao bowed and said lightly: " Since it's good to be true, just call me Wu Sidao."

"The Thirteenth Master went to the imperial garden to accompany the banquet," Fang Bao then returned to Hongli's words, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come down until after Shen Shi." As he spoke, he read the poem.Monk Wenjue was watching from the side, savoring it, but pondered for a long time before saying, "Four Master, why can't the rhyme come out of this poem?" , There has never been such a pattern. You read it in two lines and one rhyme, of course you can read it continuously." Fang Bao handed the poem to Wu Sidao with a smile, and said, "The great monk does not know much! I read Song steles in the past, and Kuaiji Gao Chrysanthemum's "Lue Zuo" has three sentences and one rhyme. According to "Liang Shu", Prince Liang of Jingling ascended Mount Tai to read Qin Shihuang's stone carvings. Unfortunately, I can't even remember the original text." Wu Sidao put the poem back on the table, and said: "This poem is quite interesting, smooth and clear, but it is just for painting, so it is inevitably rigid. It is not common, but it is true. It’s enough to say that it’s a novelty. That is to read "Laozi", "If the way of understanding is ignorant, if the way of advancement is like retreating, if the way is barbaric, if the virtue is like a valley, if the virtue is not enough, if the virtue is stolen, if the quality is true, it is clear. If you are humiliated, there is no corner in the generous, the late blooming of the great instrument, the rare sound of the great sound, and the invisible image." It is also a poem in rhyme, three sentences and one change. But it is really impossible for Liu Jun to come here in a hurry." After saying that, he bowed his head. have tea.

Liu Molin was greatly appreciated by Hongli for this three-sentence one-rhyme poem, and he was very proud in his heart, thinking that he created an unprecedented style of poetry by accident, and Fang Bao's words did not quote the original text, so he was already unconvinced, and waited for Wu Sidao to compare it "Lao Tzu", couldn't help laughing and said: "This scripture of Lao Tzu can be read sentence by sentence. It seems that the words 'Dafang Wuyu' can be connected with the sentences of 'Great Qi Late Bloom' more precisely. I don't know if Mr. Wu thinks so?" Wu Sidao only listened to it With a smile, he said: "I'm building virtue like stealing", the word for 'stealing' reads the sound of 'rain', it's not 'stealing' for stealing things. Brother Mo Lin will understand if you think about it." Liu Molin pondered for a long time before he understood, The change of this word refuted my opinion that the four "big" characters are connected, and was thinking about how to make things difficult for this surnamed Wu, but Wu Sidao said: "Please borrow Mr. Liu's fan to have a look." Liu Molin couldn't help being stunned, Passed over with both hands.Wu Sidao borrowed Zhanwan, and saw that it said:

A tea turtle on a pen bed leans against the east window, a child cooks tea and inserts a peacock

"A good handwriting!" Wu Sidao smiled and said, "Brother Fang Bao, please take a look at this couplet."

Fang Bao knew at a glance that Liu Molin mistakenly wrote the word "tea stove" as "tea turtle", and the mouse's beard twitched and laughed: "In the past, I went against old Mr. Gu Badai, and he came out with the word "wine turtle". Words, I can’t be right. Now that there is a 'tea turtle', it's a match made in heaven." Wu Sidao took back the fan and inspected it for a long time, then asked, "What is this 'peagle'? It must be 'Gengcang'" Lao Bo' Geng Cang Lao Bo: The correct pronunciation is Cang Geng, Bo Lao. ——Original Note. Like that?"

Everyone in the room couldn't help laughing when they saw these three people fighting essays. Liu Molin has been a "leader and celebrity" since he entered school, and he has never suffered from anyone's disadvantages in essays.Known for his erudition and quickness, he occasionally misused allusions, but he refused to admit defeat. Whenever he was questioned, he would deduce that it was from "Yongle Dadian".A "Yongle Encyclopedia" is as vast as a sea of ​​volumes, who can confirm it?Today, two outrageous clerical mistakes were exposed in public on the topic of his own book fan. Liu Molin was immediately ashamed, blushing and couldn't get a word right, wishing he could get in through a crack.

"A hero deceives others, and Mo Lin is not immune." Seeing Liu Molin's embarrassment, Hongli smiled and laughed, "Today's defeat is not because you are useless, but because you have met a strong enemy. Why should you be depressed?" Wu Sidao broke his face. He smiled and said: "Fourth master is right. In fact, I didn't fall to the bottom in the past? We just laughed at your fallacy and slapped this queer on the back. I'm afraid I can't fill it in well." He leaned back and recited: "The moon is dim in Maodian. If you don't listen to the Qing song, you will be heartbroken. It's a place where the strings are low and the strings are pressed. It's desolate. The dense rain and the wind and the geese are walking a few times, and gradually feel the hair on the temples. It's strange that the crows and young hate are growing, etc. It’s a lost guest at the end of the world, boundless. The candle shakes, the bottle is empty, and the clothes are full of tears! ——The feeling is desolate and touching, and I’m afraid I can’t write it without a big hand.”

Hongli asked for the fan, and saw that the poem was densely packed on the back of the fan. Just now, everyone was only picking on the "wine tortoise peacock", but they didn't pay attention, so they turned their faces and smiled and said to Liu Molin: "Look at you, you are very witty and lively, why are you so funny?" Liu Molin finally recovered his composure, so he couldn't say that he missed Shunqing's work on the way, so he forced a smile and said, "This is the first time in the year that I failed in an exam, and I did it on the way back to my hometown. The fan is used to keep cool, so naturally it should bring a little autumn color Kuangwei, so I copied it." "Strange way," Wen Jue said with a smile, "I trembled when I heard it, it was raining again, and it was desolate, wouldn't it freeze to death if I fanned it?" The crowd waited and laughed, Unconsciously, when it was almost the same time, Ai Qing'an came in and said to Hongli: "Fourth Master, our prince is back." Several people hurriedly got up, Yun Xiang supported an eunuch with one hand and entered the study.

"Forget it." Seeing that everyone wanted to salute, Yun Xiang waved his hands and ordered the eunuch to step down, but he himself refused to sit down. He turned to Hongli and asked, "You have a decree? Please announce it." Hongli hurriedly said, "Long live, order me I came to visit Uncle Thirteen and Mr. Wu, but I didn't give Uncle any orders. Please sit down." He repeated Yongzheng's words.Yun Xiang nodded, took a deep breath, almost slumped on the chair, his face was pale with a hint of flush, he looked exhausted, he drank a bowl of ginseng soup and his spirit improved, and said: "Mr. I will see you again. As I said before, you have something to do, and I will act on your behalf. You have seen my bones, and I can’t last for a few days. So after the banquet, I specially stayed here. Long live said that in the future, your secret friendship On behalf of Prince Bao." He coughed twice, and said again: "I came back a bit late, and asked Bilita and the others to discuss some matters. I will accompany the driver to Fengtai tomorrow, and I will go to see the eldest brother and the second brother. The eldest brother is so crazy that he doesn't even recognize anyone. The symptoms of the second brother and I are exactly the same. Seeing that it is useless. Master Wenjue, it is the things that the Long Live God told me. Let's talk about Nian Gengyao first. Jing is still released. You just talk, I will listen. My energy is really weak—who is this?" His gaze suddenly turned to Liu Molin, "I seem to have seen it in the Imperial Academy."

Liu Molin was shocked all over, realizing that this was an extraordinary gathering, why did he join in in a daze?He was about to reply when Hongli smiled and said, "It was brought by my nephew. Uncle Thirteen remembers well. He is Liu Molin, a scholar of the Imperial Academy. He is very smart. My nephew thought, if General Nian doesn't When I stayed in Beijing, I took Mo Lin with me, so I brought Mr. Fang and Mr. Wu to have a look." Hearing these words, Liu Molin felt that the water was unfathomable, so it was better to resign first, and hurriedly said, "Mo Lin A scholar with little life and no strength to restrain a chicken, the white knife goes in and the red knife comes out by the general Nian, what use is there for me?" Liu Molin was full of desire to find out the true intentions of Yunxiang and the others, After saying that, he stared at Yunxiang with a giggle.Yun Xiang just nodded, and said: "Since Hongli is interested, he must be good. However, the matter of Nian Gengyao has not yet been settled. It will not be too late to explain to Liu Molin when it is settled."

"What Uncle Thirteen said is true." Hongli smiled and turned to Liu Molin, "I don't think your poem may have been written by someone on the way home. Go, when I order you, I will naturally call you." He said, Liu Molin had already got up, bowed after listening, and hurriedly resigned, just arrived at the second gate, but saw the Seventeenth Prince Yunli leading a group of eunuchs to call Come in.Liu Molin hurriedly stepped aside, waited for Yunli to pass by, and left Prince Yi's mansion in a flash, and went to look for Su Shunqing.

When we arrived at Jiaxing Tower, the sky was already dark, and it was gradually getting darker.Liu Molin was excited, happy, and even a little sentimental. He walked in three steps and two steps, and couldn't help being stunned: How did it happen? After a few months away from Beijing, this place has changed to a theater building, upstairs and downstairs. For a while, there were also the voices of the actors hanging their voices, and the girls with heavy make-up going up and down the stairs were chirping, chirping, singing and swallowing, but an acquaintance was missing.He was in a daze, but when he saw Wu Sunu, the head waiter who was serving in front of Su Shunqing, coming down with a group of people carrying a theater box and clothes, Liu Molin waved and stopped laughing, "Old Wu! Where are your mother and those older sisters? With your voice like a donkey screaming, why did you switch to acting?"
