Although Zhang Jiayin, the Great Sima, did not directly express his thoughts, as a big boss, there will always be someone to speak for him.
During the dinner, someone asked: "There is still one missing among the four great ones you mentioned, and Grand Sima Zhang Gong can definitely be included."
Lin Tailai chuckled a few times and said, "I don't want to be ridiculed as a flattering minister like you!"
Everyone was speechless, but if you think about it carefully, this is indeed the case.
Lin Tailai looked at Shen Yongmao again, which made Uncle Shen feel nervous. He didn't know whether he should stand up or not.
Then I heard Lin Tailai continue to say: "Such a selection should not be made by someone as humble as me.
Otherwise, in order to avoid the suspicion of flattery, I can only recommend people who are no longer alive, such as Wang Yue and Tang Shunzhi.
Perhaps this kind of selection needs to be initiated by a more authoritative figure, such as someone who will not flatter other ministers!"
Everyone followed Official Lin's gaze and saw the person named Shen at the end of their gaze. They understood instantly!
Shen Shoufu's number one anti-fan, the famous Li Zhi and Li Shaoqing's eyes flashed, it seems that Lin Tailai, a big-breasted and brainless man, is going to give him ammunition again!
It was Zhang Jiayin who felt that she was being pushed so hard that she couldn't laugh or cry.
Then he spoke again: "Today is a literary gathering. We don't want to talk about other things. Don't talk about these miscellaneous things anymore!"
In fact, Zhang Dashima was still very interested in continuing to talk about the "Big Four", but he was worried that Zhao Yongxian and other organizers of the gathering would be impatient.
Lin Tailai took the opportunity to reply: "My original intention is to seek justice for Senior Xu Wenchang, and I came here to learn about the strength of the ancient masters and disciples of the retro sect!
But just now, Academician Zhao has repeatedly obstructed me and seems to dare not let me sit down at the table."
The talk has reached this point, and Zhao Yongxian was rendered speechless by Lin Tailai just now, and he has lost his "legal principles".
If Lin Tailai is still driven away, it will really become the case that the retro-style northern group is afraid of Lin Tailai.
And to say the least, even if you plan to drive Lin Tailai away by force, you may not be able to drive him away.
Zhang Jiayin, who had the highest status, could only be "generous" and said with a finger: "Please take a seat!"
Although the crowd seemed scattered, it was actually divided into levels. There were only a dozen or so people in the core inner circle, and Shen Yongmao, who was the latest to arrive, sat at the very end.
Lin Tailai looked around and asked: "Who is the King of Rites, Zhiyou and Wangbulang?"
Wang Zhiyou was surprised, but still responded: "I am."
Lin Tailai was not polite and sat directly next to Wang Zhiyou.
Everyone was very surprised. You, Lin Tai, had never even met Wang Zhiyou before you came. Why did you sit next to Wang Zhiyou?
Lin Tailai explained to Wang Zhiyou: "I am very familiar with your brother, the Wang Zhidu Wang Tax Envoy. I heard the Wang Tax Envoy say that your Wang family's literary strength is slightly lacking.
Since you met today, I will sit next to you. If you encounter difficulties, I may be able to help you."
Wang Zhiyou: "."
You, surnamed Lin, are worthy of coming from the turbulent Jiangnan. You are so arrogant!
The initiator and host of this gathering, Zhao Yongxian, the fifth son and the last fifth son of the retro sect, Zhao Yongxian, fell into deep thought.
As we all know, in addition to drinking, literati gatherings must also engage in some literary games, such as composing poems in rhymes, composing poems in couplets, and various drinking orders.
As the host, Zhao Yongxian must now launch a literary game to add to the fun.
Tang Wenwen, the top scholar in Jinke, came to remind the teacher again, "No matter what, you must not compose poetry!"
After careful consideration in this direction, Zhao Yongxian announced today's game project - Feihua Ling!
Moreover, Academician Zhao drafted today’s rules for the Flying Flower Order on the spot:
"First, each person takes turns saying two lines of ancient poetry, a total of fourteen words.
Secondly, the word romantic must be embedded in the two sentences spoken by each person.
Thirdly, there are three positions in the first half of the sentence and three positions in the second half of the sentence. There are a total of six positions where the word romantic can be embedded.
Fourth, in the poems that each person speaks, the position of the word romantic must be moved back in order."
A simple explanation is that the first person says the poem "Merry so-and-so", the second person will say "So-and-so is romantic so-and-so", and the third person will say "So-and-so is romantic", similar to
This kind of literary game is called Feihua Ling.
The rules of the Feihua Order allow you to quote ancient poems without restriction, and you do not need to compose your own poems.
Most of the people here are disciples of the Restoration School, and the biggest characteristic of the Restoration School is to imitate the ancients. As the saying goes, "Poems must be from the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and literature must be from Qin and Han Dynasties."
So it’s hard to say anything else about the backbone of the retro group, but they can all recite a lot of ancient poems.
This kind of Feihua Ling, which allows unlimited quotation of ancient poems without improvising poems on the spot, is the word game that Xuester Zhao can think of for the time being that is the most capable of suppressing Lin Daguanren's talent for poetry.
All in all, Lin Tailai cannot be allowed to replicate his experience of becoming famous in Jiangnan! Lin Tailai's fame cannot be allowed to spread to the north!
After Zhao Yongxian announced the rules of the game, he said to Zhang Jiayin: "Please start with Da Sima."
Zhang Jiayin said without hesitation: "Fengliu is like Qiantang Temple. You can't see peonies without stepping into the world of mortals."
This is a quotation from a poem by Zhang Hu of the Tang Dynasty, with the word romantic at the beginning of the sentence.
The second one was Shi Xing, who continued and said: "The eight-yong tower has been romantic through the ages, and the country will be left behind for future generations to worry about."
This is a quote from Li Qingzhao, with the word romantic moved back one place.
According to the position order, the third person is Zhao Yongxian, who continued: "This year's cold food is very popular, and today the whole family is traveling together."
This is a poem written by Yuan Zhen in the Tang Dynasty. The word romantic has been moved to the end of the first half of the sentence.
Jinke Zhuangyuan Tang Wenxian sat next to Zhao Yongxian and also added: "Shaoluo knows Song Yubei well, and he is also my teacher in elegance and elegance."
This sentence is more famous because it is a famous sentence by Du Fu. The word romantic has been moved to the beginning of the second half of the sentence.
The first few people were all well-read "poetry books" and they all spoke poems very quickly.
Next it was the turn of Wang Zhiyou, the official of the Ministry of Etiquette, but there was a brief pause.
Wang Bulang lamented, he was really unlucky this time, he seemed to have encountered the most difficult sequence.
The word romantic is rarely embedded in the third and fourth words in the second half of a sentence!
If the pause is too long, you will definitely be fined.
At this time, someone next to me reminded me in a low voice: "There are two green grasses on the Qingjiang River, each of which is romantic and sad."
Wang Zhiyou quickly repeated it loudly, and then realized that it seemed that Lin Tailai had reminded him.
According to the order, it was Lin Tai's turn next to Wang Zhiyou, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
In full view of everyone, Lin Daguan calmly raised his wine cup and drank three bowls in a row.
Then he said calmly: "I accept my punishment, please continue!"
Everyone: "."
You, Lin Tailai, have been installing it since you came in until the game starts. Why do you suddenly stop installing it now? Or is this a new method?
The game continued, and when Lin Tai came here again in the second round, he still took the initiative to accept the punishment and drank "tons, tons, tons" of three big bowls.
In the third round, Lin Daguanren still took the initiative to accept the penalty of three bowls!
But most of the people here are old bureaucrats, so Nuclear Power should remain calm. Although Lin Tailai behaved abnormally, he still pretended not to see it.
You, Lin Tailai, can drink if you like, it would be better not to participate.
But there are always people who make noises in the world. Dong Qichang hid in the crowd in the outer circle and shouted: "Lin Jieyuan, why don't you say poetry and only drink?"
Lin Daguan took advantage of his drunkenness and replied: "Because Xueshi Zhao's Flying Flower Order game is too simple and has no challenge at all. It is far more interesting than drinking."
Zhao Yongxian did not look at Lin Tailai, who was "rude", but his sharp eyes only wandered back and forth among the peripheral crowd!
Which bastard provoked Lin Tailai into talking about it? If you find it, take it out!
Wang Zhiyou, who was standing next to him, advised: "Don't underestimate it. This game becomes more and more difficult as the game progresses, and there are fewer and fewer verses available."
Lin Tailai muttered loudly: "It's just a small skill, what's the difficulty?"
Then he asked Zhao Yongxian: "The rules of the Feihua Order game should be that you can compose your own poems, right?"
Zhao Yongxian is still doing his best to block Lin Tailai's talent: "If you write a poem with words embedded in it, it must be improvised according to the situation, and it cannot have nothing to do with the elegant gathering!"
Lin Tailai held the wine cup, laughed a few times, and then said directly:
"First, after thousands of years of being in a romantic trance, if I go to Lanting to see Youjun.
Secondly, Wang Xie Fengliu is still within reach, but who can figure out Shuiyunjian?
Thirdly, the spirit palace is a charming place, and when you meet, you will smile and be happy.
Fourth, the polishing has truly become the Zhaodaiguan, and the trend has taken the right direction.
Fifthly, the great talents came from Taihu Lake, and all the affairs listed on the list belong to you.
Sixth, Baile suddenly heard three tunes, still the old fashion in Jiangzuo."
Lin Tailai spoke alone for several rounds in one breath, as if every sentence was written casually, and every sentence was related to today's gathering.
The word "Fengliu" kept changing in Lin Tailai's mouth according to the order. Feihua Ling, which was supposed to be a group mouth, became Lin Tailai's solo mouth.
Everyone was speechless. The essence of the banquet word game is that everyone participates, not just Lin Tailai who takes care of everything from beginning to end!
If everyone played like you, Lin Tailai, it would really be too simple.
If a game is too simple and has no difficulty, it will probably make people feel bored, right?
Out of control, out of control again, Zhao Yongxian discovered that he might have experienced the feelings of the old leader Wang.
At this time, someone in the crowd shouted: "May I ask Lin Jieyuan, what is the difficulty level of your usual literary games?"
But as soon as the man shouted, he was held down by two servants and dragged out.
"My difficulty?" Lin Tailai put down his wine cup and said drunkenly: "Since someone asked, I will show you what the difficulty is!"
Then Lin Daguan asked someone to bring a pen and paper and wrote half of a poem on the spot:
"There is a light sail hanging on the empty river, and I can read all the paintings in the East Tower. The wet green and weeping willows are green in the creek bay, and the moon is blowing against the curtains, and the rain is sparse and the wind is cold at night."
Then he recited it loudly, circulated it to others, and introduced:
"This is half a poppy chapter. It only has the upper part. Whoever can continue it with the lower part can just do it!"
Shi Xing, another old man from the retro school, couldn't see Lin Tailai's arrogance. He didn't read half of the poem carefully and casually shouted: "It's just a continuation of half of the poem, what's the difficulty?"
For people in the literary world, this is something they can do easily!
After taking a look at Tang Wenwen, the top scholar in Jinke, he quickly reminded: "Senior Shi! This is a palindrome!"
The so-called palindrome poems are poems that can be read front to back.
For example, Lin Tailai's Shangque, according to the format of poppy poppies, can be read in reverse:
"The late rain in the cold wind blows across the curtains, sending the moon over the green bay and stream. Willows hang green and wet paint is painted on the east side of the building. I read all over and hang my sails and sail across the river in the sky."
It is as elegant and beautiful as the original reading, and there is no trace of the haphazard patchwork of most palindromic poems.
Shi Xing was surprised and asked Tang Zhuangyuan: "You can see it so quickly?"
Tang Wenwen answered honestly: "Lin Tailai blocked the Twelve Hairpins of Jinling at Xushuguan in Suzhou last year, and used this half-que poem to make things difficult for Zhao Caiji, so I knew about it."
"Has it been used? What happened next? Has it been cracked?" Shi Xing asked again.
Tang Wenwen said: "There was no follow-up later. Zhao Caiji did not accept the challenge at all, and went straight to drink with Lin Tailai for the night, so this half-que poem was lost."
Shi Xing: "."
However, after being stunned for a moment, Shi Xing still said stubbornly: "The difficulty of palindrome is only that high. Is it possible that you, Lin Tailai, are the only one who can write it?"
Although you don’t need to have the hands, you can always write it as long as you take the time to conceive it.
Lin Tailai smelled of alcohol and said: "Who said these are the only difficulties? Can palindromic poetry also be called difficult?"
Then he held up the poem manuscript and said: "The biggest difficulty with my half-que poem is that it is a love poem, and it is read from a male perspective when read forward and from a female perspective when read backwards.
So the combination of the pros and cons makes a man and a woman, and the sequel cannot break away from this framework!"
Everyone: "."
Is this horse riding a literary game played by normal people? With the level of difficulty raised to this level, can the Yaji continue to be held? You, Lin Tailai, go play in the mud by yourself!
Lin Daguan took advantage of the wine and said: "I just want to explain the difficulty of our daily literary game in the update agency. I didn't expect you to continue writing it. I have already finished the next chapter!"
Then he took a pen and paper and took the initiative to write the following:
"Famous flowers have no hatred when they meet people. The orioles in the wild fields are approaching. They are red and green until the end of spring, but sometimes annoying things happen and the hatred is endless."
Reading it backwards, the lower part becomes the upper part:
"I hate that things are annoying and people are annoyed, and spring comes and goes. The green is lush and rosy, and the orioles are singing nearby. In the wilderness, I hate that no one knows the names of the flowers."
Both the direct reading and reverse reading are smooth, elegant and delicate, and the direct reading is male and the backward reading is female, which is extremely exquisite!
Everyone who has read poetry books has read palindrome poems, but they have never seen one that is more technical than the one in front of them. They can't help but fall into a long-lasting shock!
Only Lin Daguan, who was drunk, shouted: "I don't know how difficult it is for you retro-schoolers to practice poetry on weekdays, but we at the Update Society practice literature according to this standard!"
"Bang!" Zhao Yongxian couldn't bear to refute the case: "This is a pure game, without any intention or character, and has fallen into the wrong way!"
Tang Wenwen, the top scholar in modern subjects, exclaimed: "Teacher, please stop talking!"
Official Lin looked at Zhao Yongxian blankly: "Scholar Zhao wants to hear Taoist poetry? Tell me earlier!
I entered the capital and wrote down a poem of seven rhymes, which should be in line with Academician Zhao’s taste! Please listen carefully, Academician Zhao!”
Then everyone heard a new poem from Lin Daguan's mouth:
"The husband held the Wu hook with only one hand, and his spirit was higher than that of a hundred-foot building.
Whoever writes history in the past ten thousand years wants to be named a marquis from three thousand miles away.
I will surely follow the journey with swift feet, and I will chase the gulls in my leisure time.
Smiling and pointing at the moon beside Lugou Bridge, how many people will come to Yingzhou from now on?"
After Lin Tailai finished reciting it, he found that this song was so suitable for his situation that he didn't need to change a single word.
Everyone watched helplessly as an elegant gathering sponsored by the retro sect turned into Lin's personal show again.
Wang Zhiyou, who had observed Lin Tailai's words and deeds at close range, finally understood what the fifteenth sister meant when she said she "likes to trample people with poetry."
