Chapter 142 Yuan Zhen(1/2)
Author: Yushengqin
If the author of the book "The Art of Heaven" was not Ye Luo, the sales volume would definitely be so bleak that it could not be as bleak as it is. After all, who can buy this thing if you have nothing to do?
But who told me that this book was written by Teacher Ye?
It can be said that Ye Luo has a celebrity effect now.
Even such ancient popular science books, which are extremely niche in ancient times, still have good sales under the aura of Ye Luo. Of course, it is definitely incomparable to the reprints of "The Legend of the Poetry" and "The Legend of the Poetry".
Yuan Zhen!
Although there is no separate biography, it is hard to hide his brilliant literary glory.
As Bai Juyi's best friend throughout his life, he has given poems and sang to Bai Juyi many times.
For example, when he heard that Bai Juyi was demoted to Sima of Jiangzhou, he wrote a poem "When Lotte was given to Sima of Jiangzhou", "There are no flames and shadows. I heard that you were exiled to Jiujiang this evening. I sat up in a panic while dying, and the wind and rain blew into the cold window." He and Bai Juyi gave each other more than a hundred poems, which shows how deep the two of them were.
He also has a famous line in the poem "Chrysanthemums", "It is not that the flowers prefer chrysanthemums, and there are no flowers whenever the flowers bloom."
In "Three Poems to Sorrow and Feeling", there is also a famous line that Earthlings often use to describe the difficult life of couples, "I know that everyone has this hatred, and poor couples have everything to be sad."
Of course, when later generations used this sentence, they actually misinterpreted Yuan Zhen’s original intention. Yuan Zhen’s original intention was to say that I know that everyone in the world has the pain of separation from life and death, but we, a couple who have shared the same woe, feel even more sad when they experience death.
This poem was written by Yuan Zhen to commemorate his deceased wife.
It expresses the sorrow of the couple after they die, which is completely different from what later generations use. It is used to describe the unhappy life caused by poverty.
In fact, as one of the leaders of the "New Yuefu Movement", Yuan Zhen has always been as famous as Bai Juyi. When it comes to Tang poetry, he mentioned Li Du, but he did not know that the "Yuan Bai" in the mid-Tang Dynasty was also shining for the ages!
Moreover, Yuan Zhen was also the leader and initiator of the "Ancient Literature Movement", and had a lot of contact with Han Yu, Liu Zongyuan and others.
However, the relationship between "Yuan Bai" and "Han Liu" is not too close.
Of course, Yuan Zhen has talent, but he was still criticized by netizens.
After reading the reprinted book, some netizens immediately commented, "Although Yuan Zhen has many good poems, to be honest, this guy is a bit awkward! First, in order to cling to the other lady Wei family, he let down his urge to write to the double article. Then after Wei's death, he married someone the next year. He used to be a terrible sea of water, except for Wushan. The poem is really good, but what he said is just like fart!"
"Actually, this is not the most disgusting thing. What I can't stand most is his attitude towards gui Shuangwen! This guy was begging for others to beg for nothing before, but after he was in high school, he was extremely disgusted with them. What's even more annoying is that when someone urged Shuangwen to write a letter to him, what did he do? He actually showed the letters gui Shuangwen everywhere, showing off a lovely girl in his hometown waiting for him. What's so bad that people can do? I read Yuan Zhen's poems, he was so disgusting!"
"This is nothing. After this scumbag got married, she actually licked her face and went to find someone to urge Shuangwen. As a result, she couldn't say a sentence that a poem called urging Shuangwen could not express."
"Indeed, this poem "The Poem of Death" is really good, 'What is the way I abandoned me now? I was close to you at that time. I also took the old meaning to pity the people in front of you.' This pure and talented woman in the Tang Dynasty! What's ridiculous is that Yuan Zhen also wrote "The Legend of Yingying" based on this. I really can't understand this kind of defensive and established."
"If you want to talk about talented women, it's nothing to urge double articles. Teacher Ye wrote them all in the book. Xue Tao is the real talented woman!"
"One of the four talented women in the Tang Dynasty!"
"Not only Xue Tao, but also Liu Caichun. Yuan Zhen slept halfway through the four talented women of the Tang Dynasty..."
"It's a pity that they were all disappointed in the end. Rather than saying that Yuan Zhen wrote his poems and articles well, he is a love saint!"
"You know nothing! Yuan Zhen loves Bai Juyi!"
"Go to your uncle! Don't do this, let me tell you!"
"Yuan Zhen owed too many tears of beautiful women in his life. He had failed too many people in his life. From Cui Shuangshuang when he first started to get married to Wei Cong, and Xue Tao, a talented woman who cheated during his marriage, but what did Xue Tao get in the end? The danger that he had waited for was nothing more than news about Yuan Zhen's renewal of Xianpin. Another talented woman mentioned in the book, Liu Caichun, only asked for the title of a concubine. As a result, Yuan Zhen married Uncle Pei as his concubine and finally committed suicide by jumping into the river."
"Liu Caichun is also cheating during marriage, okay? When she met Yuan Zhen, she had a family long ago. In the end, she ended up like this, which was her own fault!"
"So, cheating won't end well."
Not to mention anything else, Yuan Zhen's emotional experience is enough to make netizens talk.
Of course, let alone contemporary netizens, aren’t even those ancient people on Earth paying great attention to Yuan Zhen’s emotional history? Even the famous drama "The West Chamber" of the Yuan Dynasty was based on the prototype of the urging Shuangwen and Yuan Zhen.
Moreover, looking at Yuan Zhen's life, he was indeed a bit too much about his feelings.
However, in the reprints of "The Legend of the Poetry" and "The Legend of the Poetry", Ye Luo brought up many new contents through the experience of the character Xin Xiu Yuan Zhen.
For example, the four talented women of the Tang Dynasty mentioned by netizens were not in previous books. There is also Yuan Zhen and Bai Juyi's other friend Li Shen, Ye Luo, also wrote some stories about him in this version of "The Legend of the Demons of Poetry". He once "teared each other" with Han Yu, and was eventually punished.
Of course, what everyone remembers most is the "Two Poems of Compassion in the Farm" he wrote:
"One": Plant a grain of millet in spring and harvest ten thousand seeds in autumn. There is no idle field in the world, and the farmer still starves to death.
"The Second" made readers even more attracted by it, "It's noon to hoe the rice, and sweat drips into the soil. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard to do?"
Unfortunately, Li Shen, who once cared about the people, later changed his temperament and became arrogant, extravagant and extravagant, and was squandered.
Even when Liu Yuxi was transferred from the governor of Hezhou to the capital, when Li Shen invited Liu Yuxi, the singers were like clouds and the grand show made Liu Yuxi sigh, "The beard was combed in the palace, and the spring breeze was like Du Weiniang. It was commonplace to be completely circulated and the intestines of the governor of Jiangnan were cut off."
The idiom "common" on earth comes from this. Sikong refers to Li Shen at that time.
In the end, Li Shen also ended up in trouble for his descendants.
The great changes in Li Shen have also made countless netizens sigh.
In general, this revision and reprint can be regarded as a new book.
It is also because of this that the literary world has set off another wave of purchasing the Ye Tang series.
...
New Culture Association.
"No, can you still do this after re-revision?" Zhang Rumeng looked at the "The Legend of the Tang Poetry and Demons" in her hand, and looked confused. His novels have been re-reprinted many times, but at most they are just sewing and patching, optimizing the settings and so on.
But what is Ye Luo doing?
This is like writing a new book directly!
yes!
The character Yuan Zhen appeared from the beginning, but it is far less full and rich than it is now. Needless to say, the poems and articles in it were not a single sentence before, but now it has even involved several new characters!
What's the difference between these new books?
Another novelist also pulled his lips and said, "According to his playing style, you can continue to write these two books seven or eight times..."
"He has learned the old bottle of new wine, right?"
"It's not like this to put on new wine! How big is his bottle?"
"No matter how you pretend, the old books are popular again! Who among you has this ability?" Chairman Shao Xinzhong glanced at them and other novelists.
"Who is comparing with him? A poet who writes poetry? If you compare, you have to compete with Brother Jun and others." Zhang Rumeng would find a way out for himself.
Hao Zhijun next to him said quietly: "Romance of the Three Kingdoms is also a poem?"
Zhang Rumeng stopped talking.
"Okay, stop talking about him."
Chairman Shao said: "How are you preparing for the forum?"
Speaking of this, everyone finally became energetic.
Hao Zhijun said first: "The Wenyuan has already confirmed it with the Japanese side. The content of this exchange is mainly based on modern poetry. However, the theme this time is different from the past, and it is determined to promote friendship and peace between China and Japan."
Zhang Rumeng curled her lips, "Who set this topic? Is it so disgusting?"
Shao Xinzhong frowned and looked at Zhang Rumeng, "Old Zhang, it's okay if you talk now. Then you should pay attention to me on the forum and don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Rumeng is a famous angry young man in their association. He is indiscriminately resistant to Japanese people. In some of his works, some "anti-Japanese" scenes can often be seen.
"I understand, who has come over them this time?"
"There are many people coming, Shirato Yoshio, Hoshino Yusuke, and Arida Rieki all came."
Chairman Shao Xinzhong spoke and took out another stack of materials, which was the list of the Japanese participants this time.
Hao Zhijun sneered: "The three heroes of the poetry world are here together, haha, it's really coming."
Zhang Rumeng turned over the list and was surprised when she saw the name "Akiyama Shifang". "How old is Qiuyama? Is he still here?"
"This time he led the Japanese novel world, and there are many people coming to their novel world."
"Well, I saw it, this situation is quite a bit."
The literary forum between China and Japan has been around for decades. After the two countries resumed diplomatic relations in the last century, the literary world has been secretly competing.
The two types of modern poetry and novels that compete the most are the two types.
As the bridgehead for the Western world to deal with China, Japan has Western support in all walks of life.
Similarly, the literary world is no exception.
No one in China has won the "World's Highest Literature Award" so far, while in Japan, there have been seven winners.
The tricks in this can be seen by everyone.
The Japanese also relied on the support of the West to engage in a large cultural invasion of China.
This kind of Chinese-Japanese literature forum is held every few years.
But fortunately, the people from the New Literature Association are not vegetarians, and there are also fierce people in the modern literary world!
For example, in the session seven years ago, the main discussion was modern novels. At that time, Japan and the country were also prepared and produced one excellent short story after another on the forum. They said that they were shared and everyone discussed together, but to put it bluntly, they were showing their excellent works.
This Chinese-Japanese Literature Forum is like this, and it is nonsense to talk about any exchange and discussion.
This literary forum is the most popular forum seminar in the literary world, no doubt about it!
At that forum, the Chinese literary world was almost crushed by Japan, but fortunately, that year, Mr. Xu Zhiyi, the gods descended to earth. Faced with the endless stream of excellent works of Japan, Mr. Xu created an article "Who Do I Despise?" on the spot, with less than 20,000 words of content, which made the Japanese representative show speechless.
