Chapter 318 Sharing Psalms from Thousand Miles Away(2/2)

Lu Junbi picked up a book, raised it high, and enthusiastically introduced it to everyone at the table:
"This book contains ten Mid-Autumn Festival poems, all of which were written by Gusu Lin Zhuangyuan in Nanjing last year. At that time, the leader of the literary world, Wang Danzhou Gong, was so impressed that he stopped writing.
When I read it, I was filled with emotion. Since the Song Dynasty, there have been no more outstanding Mid-Autumn Festival poems than these!
With the pearls and jade in front of you, how dare you show your ugliness again in the future? I would like to share this masterpiece with you, everyone has a volume, and share the fragrance of books tonight!"
Zhao Zhigao: "."
Lin Tailai is right, he did not publish any new works this Mid-Autumn Festival.
In Suzhou City, the economic and cultural center of Jiangnan, the Mid-Autumn Festival is also a very grand festival. There are many festivals and customs. It is a basic operation to visit the beautiful city, and gatherings of scholars can be found everywhere.
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival night, the disciples and grandsons of the Wen family, who are known as half of Suzhou's literary world, did not go to Huqiu to join in the fun, but chose to gather in Zhangjia Qiuzhiyuan.
Dozens of people gathered together, and the scene was grand. At that time, Wen Zhengming could not have imagined that he would have so many disciples and descendants.
The most important figures include: Wen Zhengming's grandson, Wen Yuanfa, the current head of the Wen family, and Wen Zhengming's great-grandson Wen Zhenmeng.
Wang Zhideng, a close disciple of Wen Zhengming, the leader of Suzhou's local literary circle, and the world's best civilian poet.
The son of Lu Shidao, Wen Zhengming's proud successor, Lu Shiren is a master of calligraphy and painting forgery.
The son of Wen Zhengming's outer disciple Qian Gu, the bibliophile and calligrapher Qian Yunzhi.
In his later years, Wen Zhengming made friends with Zhang Fengyi, the largest trader in the Suzhou calligraphy and painting market.
When he was young, he was certified as a child prodigy by Wen Zhengming, and Zhang Youyu was the second famous scholar in Suzhou City.
There was also Zhao Huanguang, the son-in-law of Lu Shidao, who came all the way from Taicang Prefecture and was a descendant of the Eight Wise Queens of the Song Dynasty and the successor of Wen Zhengming.
Wait, wait, etc. So it is not an exaggeration at all to say that Wen Zhengming’s descendants are half of the current Suzhou literary and art circle.
Especially in the calligraphy and painting market, Wen Zhengming's disciples and descendants occupy the largest market share.
At the beginning of the lanterns, the garden was brightly lit. Zhang Youyu, half of the owner, stood in the middle, holding up a book and loudly said:
"Everyone, listen to me. This book contains ten Mid-Autumn Festival poems, all of which were written by my unscrupulous student in Nanjing last year. At that time, Wang Fengzhou was so impressed that he stopped writing.
When I read it recently, I couldn't help but sigh. Since the Song Dynasty, there have been no more outstanding Mid-Autumn Festival poems than these!
With the student Zhuyu in front of me, I, as a teacher, don’t dare to show my shame anymore, and I don’t think you have any need to write poems or lyrics.
I will distribute this masterpiece to you all, each of you will have a volume, and we will share the fragrance of books tonight!"
The noisy and lively sounds in the banquet room suddenly seemed to have pressed the mute button, and there was silence for an instant.
Everyone was thinking, has Zhang Youyu gone crazy again?
It was not just once or twice that Zhang Youyu made trouble at his own gathering.
Some people looked at Zhang Fengyi and called "Mr. Lingxu" several times.
This means that as the eldest brother, why don’t you quickly take Zhang Youyu back and tie him up?
Zhang Fengyi struggled for a long time and responded: "Actually, after thinking about it, my second brother's suggestion is not bad.
How about setting the theme tonight to review and study Lin Zhuangyuan’s ten Mid-Autumn Festival articles last year.”
Everyone at the table was astonished. Everyone was used to Zhang Youyu going crazy. Why did you, Zhang Fengyi, also go crazy? Can madness be contagious?
Zhang Fengyi smiled bitterly and added: "Lin Zhuangyuan said that after he goes to Yangzhou, he will vigorously promote cultural exchanges between Jiangsu and Yangzhou, introduce more excellent cultural products into Yangzhou, and fully meet the growing demand for cultural products among the emerging classes in Yangzhou.
If you are willing to discuss Lin Zhuangyuan's Mid-Autumn Festival poem together tonight, our brothers are welcome to join; if you are not willing, don't force it, everyone can enjoy it."
Lu Shiren, the son of Lu Shidao, the heir to Wen Zhengming's mantle, and a master of calligraphy and painting forgery, stood up, walked to Zhang Fengyi and said:
"Although I had many misunderstandings with Lin Zhuangyuan last year, I still appreciate Lin Zhuangyuan's poetry very much, but I am not embarrassed to say it out.
It’s a rare opportunity tonight to express our feelings together, and I’m willing to join you!”
But at the same time, some people shouted: "I should stick to my moral integrity and never be kitsch!"
Immediately, several more people responded and agreed with this statement.
Wen Yuanfa, the contemporary head of the Wen family, saw helplessly that a gathering of the Wen family split into two camps in an instant.
The descendants of the Wen family will never forget this most painful day.
Thank you all! I'm back on the list, but I'm at the bottom... If you don't vote monthly, you'll fall off again...
Chapter completed!
