Chapter 125: Finally something to do
Lu Yijian and his son racked their brains to think about the deep meaning of Xu Ping's poems and lyrics, and Xu Ping was confused and ignorant.
I left a poem outside the Sanhuang Temple. I was really angry at Wang Yan at that time. Moreover, facing Guangwu Mountain, which has many historical relics, this ancient battlefield that once influenced history, I had to leave some traces after living for a month. He did not make a living by poetry and prose. He wrote it as soon as he wanted to write it, and he didn't care whether others said it was good or not.
As for copying Xin Qiji's "Breaking the Array", it was kicked out and there was nothing I could do. You are a first-class Jinshi, and you are waiting for the Longtu Pavilion and can't even make the first small order on the spot. Even if Xu Ping is so shameless, the court can't afford to lose this person. I gave up at that time, and if there is one day of promotion in the future, someone will come up with something. It's already a lucky chance to be a ignorant Jinshi, and I'm still embarrassed to be a bachelor's degree?
It would be nice if the lyrics could fit the scene and match their own identity. Where did he have time to think about the delicate meaning in the lyrics? Some people would sting their own thoughts at one word at a time. Xu Ping really couldn't imagine it!
The red glow in the sky slowly faded away its bright red color, as the night slowly soaked the earth, the cool breeze blew from nowhere, and the most comfortable time of the day finally came.
Xu Ping sat on the recliner in the yard, letting the cool breeze blow through him, completely taking away the heat during the day.
This day was coming and going. Xu Ping remembered that he didn't seem to drink much, but he was still a little dizzy. The cool breeze took away the heat from his body, but he couldn't calm down and couldn't sit on the chair.
Standing up, Xu Ping slowly paced under the trees in the yard, feeling the coolness of the evening.
Xiuxiu came in from outside the yard and said to Xu Ping: "Official, my wife asks you if you want to go and have a meal."
"I won't eat anymore. I've eaten all day during the day and my stomach swelled up. Go and say, I'll rest in my yard, but I can't go. Wait until they have enough food, and then go to pay my respects to my father and mother."
Xiuxiu agreed, turned around and walked a few steps, then turned around and asked Xu Ping: "Did the official drink too much and drink it up? I'll make you a bowl of sobering soup."
"Okay, if you have fresh crucian carp at home, make some hot and sour fish soup."
Xiuxiu smiled and said, "Today I saw someone fishing in the back garden, and I don't know if he had caught crucian carp. If not, let Brother Sun Qi go to the pond to catch two tails. Anyway, Brother Sun Qi can get it right at home."
Xu Ping agreed to ask Xiuxiu to arrange it himself. The big place of the house is indeed beneficial, with mountains and water, orchards and ponds. If you want to eat, just catch whatever you want. With Sun Qilang, who is like home, who runs on the ground, swims in the water, and flys in the sky, there is nothing he can't catch.
Before noon, Xue Kui and Wang Shu left. Sure enough, Mei Xun and Li Shu also arrived at Xuping's mansion. They were two Hanlin scholars and the other Sherenyuan's master edicts. They usually came out with ceremonial guards and were in great honor in the capital. At this time, the Qinggui Ci had a very high status. Even the lower-ranking Zhongshu Sheren, the Jiedushi had to avoid the Jiedushi when they saw him, and almost the entire Three Yaya was under pressure. Of course, they had fought with Xixia in history, and during the Qingli period, they were turned upside down. The Sheren had to give way to the Chief of the Three Yaya, or even the Jiedushi, even the Jiedushi left behind, let alone the Jiedushi.
Now is the time for their highest and most majestic status, but no matter how powerful it is, it can't stand a Qingluo umbrella. Even if the old man only rides a donkey and holds an umbrella behind him, the slaughter must avoid it.
Mei Xun and Li Shu were outside until they waited for Xue Kui and Wang Shu to leave before they rushed over. They were very smart and were here to play today. How could they let go with two priests present? What's more, Xue Kui and Wang Shu.
In the afternoon, everyone was able to let go, especially after Yan Shu left shortly after the afternoon, he was in a state of voluptuousness. Xu Ping was also a little confused, only to remember that someone was singing Liu Yong's slow lyrics around the singers, and another one actually jumped into the pond. He didn't know whether he was going to catch fish or take a bath, so he couldn't remember who it was.
At this time, it was a torture for Gao Ruonne. No one would accompany him to speak, and let him sit there in a deserted manner, and he had to look at other people's inappropriate behaviors. There was no other way, Gao Ruonne borrowed a fishing rod to fish by the pond alone. I don't know if he had caught it or not. Anyway, Xu Ping only remembered that Gao Ruonne said he missed his junior brother Wen Yanbo. With Wen Yanbo there, at least someone would accompany him to talk.
Xu Ping hasn't seen such a lively scene for a long time. Although he is not interested in listening to songs around singers and is not interested in the literati's high-profile discussions, he likes this lively atmosphere. Without the intrigues in the officialdom, everyone acts in a casual manner according to their own feelings. How rare is his identity now.
The moon finally climbed up from the horizon. Although it was only half and a little shy, the bright moonlight sprinkled on the ground, like a layer of frost, making people feel refreshed in summer nights.
I have nearly three months off, so I should have found someone to come and have fun. After this time, I might never have a chance again. But there are too many people today and it is a bit messy, so I just need to find fewer people in the future.
In what name, who should I invite?
Xu Ping sat back on the lounge chair and stared blankly at the moon in the sky.
Xiuxiu brought the fish soup into the yard, put the bowl on the stone table aside, and said to Xu Ping: "Officiale, while the fish soup is still hot, hurry up and drink it and wake up."
Xu Ping stood up and asked Xiuxiu without hesitation: "Xiuxiu, when is the time now?"
Xiuxiu looked at the moon in the sky and said, "Oh, the moon has come out, it's the hour of Hai! Official, please drink this sobering soup quickly and take a break early. It's getting late."
Xu Ping sat down at the stone table, slowly drank fish soup, looked up at the lower crescent moon that had just risen in the sky, and muttered: "Yes, today I'll have a rest, the moon comes out, and it's the hour of Hai."
China has been able to measure the year of the sun with relatively accurate accuracy, but it has always used the lunar calendar mentioned in later generations, that is, the Yin and Sun Gregorian calendar. No matter how the calendar is changed, it has never been used. In addition to the agricultural solar term brought by the Yin and Sun Gregorian calendar, the moon phase at night should also be an important reason.
Once you know the date and look at the moon in the sky, you can know the approximate time even at night. Although the solar calendar has many advantages, this cannot be compared with the Yin and Sun calendar.
Xu Ping was drinking the sour and sour fish soup and looking at the fresh little crescent moon in the sky, he was a little stunning.
Xiuxiu walked over and whispered: "Official, be careful of being hot! Why do you still want to worry about drinking soup?"
Chapter completed!
