Yu Dayuan had studied "Preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion" and also knew the creative background of this article.
Today, he felt that the scene had reappeared. Zhu Ming was Wang Bo, and he and the scholars present were the guests who were slapped in the face by Wang Bo.
Very shameful!
Yu Dayuan quietly looked at Huang Sheng, only to see Huang Sheng lowered his head and said nothing.
Both of them have passed the examination, so they still want to face each other, and they can't continue to fight.
Ju Ming's knowledge is there. You need Confucianism to have Confucianism, and you need poetry to have poetic talent. How to entangle? How to fight? Are you asking for trouble?
Professor Qian stroked his beard, raised his wine cup and said, "A good poem is enough to accompany it with wine. It should be like a poem."
"please!"
Xiang Zhixian smiled and clinked glasses with Professor Qian.
Lu Heng tasted the poem carefully, but secretly sighed: This Zhu Chenggong is really a master of flattery, and I will never be able to learn from him.
"The ancients left no stone unturned in their knowledge, and they only matured when they were young." The underlying meaning of these two sentences is that Zhu Ming was young and only had some youthful skills. In terms of knowledge, he still had to look to seniors like Lu Tixue.
"What you learn on paper is ultimately shallow, but you must know that you have to practice it." These two sentences do not have to have hidden meanings. They directly state that learning is doing things. Lu Tixue's research method is absolutely correct.
The flattery is so flattering that it doesn't make people disgusted.
Because the poem itself is well written!
Of course Lu Tixue was happy. A smile bloomed like a chrysanthemum on his face, and then he sighed again: "What a pity. You are so smart. If you had been born twenty years earlier, you would have been able to show off your knowledge in front of Mr. Dongpo. You are so resourceful.
, it’s perfect to study in Shu.”
Zhu Ming asked: "Do you recommend Shu learning?"
Lu Tixue shook his head and said: "In terms of Shu studies, I only recognize its theory of managing the world, governing history, and the theory of emotion. As for the vertical and horizontal changes, the integration of the three teachings, it is too biased."
Zhu Ming finally fully understood why Lu Tixue advocated doing practical things but was intermittently nervous. It turned out to be the influence of Su Shi.
Heart, sex, emotion, and fate are topics that people in the Song Dynasty are keen to discuss.
Shu School highlights a word called "emotion", which is close to Zhuangzi's naturalistic view of life and... Zen.
There is nothing wrong with this originally, but if you add the vertical and horizontal skills to it, it seems too frivolous.
A Confucian school that absorbs Buddhism, Taoism and vertical and horizontal arts sounds very strange. Zhu Xi's comment is the most vivid, saying that Sansu and his son "picked up the remaining thoughts of Su and Zhang in the early days, and drank in the dregs of Buddha and Lao Lao later."
However, in the late Northern Song Dynasty, the most influential among the people was neither Wang Anshi’s New School nor Er Cheng’s Luo School, but the Shu School headed by San Su!
This is because the Shu scholar’s articles were well written and widely disseminated, and his theory of emotions was easily accepted by young people.
Even Lu Tixue, who advocated doing things, was misled by the theory of emotion.
"That's all, drink!"
Lu Tixue suddenly felt a little uninterested.
No one understood why they suddenly changed their attitude after they were quite happy just now.
Maybe, I'm having a nervous breakdown again.
Lu Tixue thought of the current situation in the court. He and his clan brothers were both members of the New Party, but even the New Party could not understand many of Cai Jing's actions.
His uncle Lu Dian is Wang Anshi’s direct disciple!
The original author of the poem that Ju Ming copied just now was his nephew Lu You... Maybe he will continue to copy it in the future, because Lu You was not born yet?
Seemingly feeling that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Lu Tixue added, "You can have a drink."
He bowed his hands to the magistrate and said, "Please inform me and issue an order."
Lu Tixue said: "Drinking and having fun should not be complicated. Just use the teasing order, drinking first, three sentences are enough. I come first, drink, drink, don't waste your time and age?"
Xiang Zhixian immediately responded: "Drink, drink, fight to be first and not to be second to others."
Professor Qian continued: "Drink, drink, have fun and don't think about longevity."
WTF?
When it was Zhu Guoxiang's turn, he was already confused. He had recently improved his knowledge of Ping and Ze and rhyme. But the drinking orders of the three people in front of him were not exactly the same in Ping and Ze. How could he continue?
"Drink, drink..." Zhu Guoxiang raised his neck and drank a bowl, "I did it!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The whole audience laughed and the atmosphere became lively.
Zhu Ming sat next to Lu Tixue, who happened to be the last one at the main table.
At this time, no matter how many poems you memorize, it is useless. You must know that the drinking order is mediocre.
Through the drinking orders given by the first seven people, Ju Ming has already heard the rules. The third character from the bottom must be flat, the last character must be zhi, and the rest of the positions can be arbitrary.
Ju Ming continued: "Drink, drink, the wine and meat will pass through the intestines without dirt."
A scholar at the table next to him couldn't wait to say: "Drink, drink, you will become drunk and lose weight."
"Ha ha!"
Lu Tixue clapped his hands and shouted: "Drink as a penalty, drink as a penalty!"
The scholar asked doubtfully: "Is it a rhyme?"
Lu Ti said impatiently: "With such a simple drinking order, are you still allowed to go into custody?"
Everyone present was dumbfounded. Lord Tixue is such a bitch.
Deliberately giving a simple drinking order, but digging a hole in the rhyme to wait for others to jump.
"Shou" rhymes with "rhyme", which is the upper tone.
"Shou" rhymes with "You rhyme", which means the sound is removed.
When writing poems, "shou" and "shou" can rhyme together, and in this case they rhyme. But if a drinking order is made, Lu Tixue, as the chief referee, can determine that the word "shou" rhymes.
In the past, when poetry and prose were tested in the imperial examination, the rhyme was so strict that many big names would fail.
Ju Ming wiped his sweat quietly. He was lucky and almost fell into the pit.
On the second round of the drinking order, a total of four people came out to drink wine as punishment. On the third round, Zhu Ming also came out and drank a bowl of wine as punishment.
There's no shame in that.
It is really impossible to guard against it. If the bail is not allowed, ancient scholars will also make mistakes. On the fifth round, both Xiang Zhixian and Professor Qian were fined with alcohol.
Lu Tixue had a bad smile on his face, he liked to tease people like this.
It can even be said to be bullying. Because of the dialect and accent, most of the people present used the rhyme without distinguishing between rhyme and rhyme.
Such nonsense made the atmosphere lively quickly. Several bowls of drinks were consumed, and even Yu Dayuan and Ju Ming joked with each other.
After having enough wine and food, the Bai family moved many benches and everyone took a rest in the courtyard.
The sky was getting darker and some lanterns were brought up.
Yu Dayuan seemed to have forgotten his previous unhappiness, and took the initiative to communicate with Ju Ming: "Where does Master Cheng come from?"
Ju Ming replied: "I have read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles, but I have not become a disciple."
"It's quite rare," Yu Dayuan was already convinced. He took out his old work and said, "Please be successful, my wise brother Yazheng."
Ju Ming leaned close to the lantern to read and said, "It's very well written."
Lu Heng joked: "Don't give him face, mediocrity is mediocrity. This guy is far better than me in studying classics, but he is not as good as me in writing poetry."
"Why didn't you pass the exam?" Yu Dayuan was very unhappy and deliberately poked his sore foot.
Lu Heng was not angry, and said with a smile: "The imperial examination does not test poetry, so there is nothing I can do."
The difficulty of passing the imperial examination in the Song Dynasty was much lower than that in the Ming and Qing dynasties. A quarter of the twenty scholars in front of me had passed the imperial examination, and they were considered to be representatives of scholars in the county.
Huang Sheng dragged the bench over and asked, "I heard someone said that Successful Brother has a nickname called Tiger with Wings?"
"Is there any? How could I not know." Zhu Ming prefers to be Hu Baoyi.
Huang Sheng asked again: "Do those bandits want to eat human flesh?"
Ju Ming was speechless: "Who did you listen to?"
Lu Heng interrupted: "There is a rumor in the county that the Yang brothers specialize in cutting open babies' hearts and lungs and drinking wine."
What is all this mess?
Ju Ming explained a few words and then talked about the entire battle process. It was inevitable that he would add fuel to the fire and artistically process the details of the suppression of the thieves. Anyway, Ju Ming personally held a knife and fought with the leader of the thieves for several rounds.
The scholars were very excited when they heard this, and wished they could go into battle to kill the thieves themselves.
After talking about the suppression of thieves, Yu Dayuan said: "If you are a successful poet with outstanding talent, it is better to join our Qixiang Society. Every spring and autumn, Qixiang Society holds poetry gatherings, where many scholars talk about poetry and Taoism."
"Brother Yu kindly invites me, and I will obey my orders." Of course, Zhu Ming would not refuse. He planned to rebel in Xixiang County, and it would be good to get to know more local scholars.
There is a very strange phenomenon. Poetry societies were everywhere in the Northern Song Dynasty, and they only became popular after the imperial examinations abolished poetry.
In the past, it was used as an exam tool and made people miserable.
After poetry was abolished, it was used for fun instead, and poetry clubs popped up one after another.
On the other side of the yard, Lu Tixue was slightly drunk and was asking for agricultural knowledge: "How to distinguish the male and female of these flowers?"
Zhu Guoxiang asked his servant to fetch charcoal, drew two large flowers on the ground, and tried his best to explain in layman's terms: "Here are the stamens, which are divided into filaments and anthers. The filaments are like male roots, and the anthers are eggs, which can produce a large amount of pollen."
."
"I know, pollen is that thing." Lu Tixue stroked his beard and smiled.
Zhu Guoxiang continued: "Here is the pistil group, which is divided into stigma, style and ovary. Pollen enters the ovary from here, where the yin and yang can have intercourse and produce fruit."
Lu Tixue squatted and watched for a long time, and said in amazement: "Interesting, interesting, really interesting. I have a brother (Lu You's father) who likes to raise peonies on weekdays, but unexpectedly, the peonies turned out to be... hahahaha!"
Zhu Guoxiang said: "Peonies are monoecious, with more stamens and fewer pistils."
Lu Tixue smiled even more happily: "When we meet next time, I will let him smell it with his nose, then point at the peony and say: This is a male!"
Zhu Guoxiang couldn't laugh or cry.
After putting away his smile for a long time, Lu Tixue asked again: "Is there anything new to say?"
Zhu Guoxiang said seriously: "I have two crops, which are obtained from overseas, called corn and sweet potatoes. Even if they are planted in mountainous areas, corn can yield one stone per mu. If planted on good land, two stones can be harvested. As for sweet potatoes, it is similar to Taro is generally eaten from its rhizome, and the yield per acre is higher."
One stone per mu is the yield without chemical fertilizers and after corn seeds have degraded. If they are all improved varieties and chemical fertilizers are used, the maximum yield per mu can be more than ten stones...
Lu Tixue was surprised and said: "Growing grain in the mountains yields one stone per mu?"
Zhu Guoxiang nodded and said: "The sweet potatoes and corn have been planted. In two months, the corn will be harvested."
"Where to plant it?" Lu Tixue asked.
Zhu Guoxiang said: "It's in this village."
Lu Tixue's expression became extremely serious: "Take me to see it tomorrow! If it is true, I will promote it throughout Lizhou Road."
