Chapter 200, Start with talent, fall into appearance
Zhuo Lingyan said: "I think your calligraphy is unique. How about you comment on the princess's calligraphy and painting?"
There are some calligraphy and paintings hanging in the pavilion in Meng Xing's yard. They were written by Liu Shiyun in thin gold style, but Zhuo Lingyan thought they were written by this guy when he was bored.
Meng Xing had no choice but to stand up, take a closer look, and said: "The font is well-proportioned, the dragons and phoenixes are flying, and the writing force is strong, which reveals that the person who wrote this calligraphy and painting has a tough character, is not good at getting along with others, and has a solitary and self-admiring temperament.
"
Princess Yangping was a little surprised that the other party could actually see a person's personality from calligraphy and painting? It was similar to Mr. Jingshan's life.
"Do you know Mr. Jingshan?" It is possible that a scholar knows Mr. Jingshan, but Meng Xing is not a scholar, so she asked this question.
"do not know."
These days, he is often busy updating the system and practicing. Except for occasionally going to the library to read books about cultivation and the customs and customs of the Great Qin Dynasty, Meng Xing has never paid attention to books written by scholars.
Don’t you know? This shows that he made the inference completely through calligraphy and painting. Princess Yangping nodded slightly and said: "Your handwriting is unique, why not copy this book for me. I borrowed this book from Qingfeng Academy
Yes, the poems in it are all written by talented students from Qingfeng College."
Princess Yangping was a little angry at his rudeness just now, so she punished him by copying books. As a crude disciple of the martial arts system, what he fears most is this kind of punishment. Many people would rather practice boringly and hard than
I like to read well.
Therefore, Princess Yangping actually gave him problems. As a princess, she was actually used to being bossy. Although she did not punish people as excessively as others, it was reasonable to punish this commoner who had just arrived.
Moreover, there was no order in her tone, but a rather tactful request. This was also for the sake of Zhuo Lingyan, a sister, and gave Zhuo Lingyan a little face.
If the guards and maids in her house dare to be rude here, they may be dragged down and beaten to death.
Meng Xing also understood the reason, because although Princess Yangping hid it well, the hint of anger in her eyes was enough to show that the princess was a little angry.
He picked up the book on the table and saw three regular script characters "Yajun Collection" written on it. He flipped through a few pages at random, then shook his head and said, "Princess, the poems written by the students of Qingfeng Academy are really great."
It's a bit ordinary, without those famous poems and lines that can be passed down through the ages."
Princess Yangping frowned, her face became even more unhappy, and she said coldly: "Qingfeng Academy has gathered almost the top scholars in the Qin Dynasty. Every student is a erudite and talented person who has read poetry and books. Although he has not made any masterpieces that have been passed down through the ages.
The poems are of a very high standard. You are not a scholar, how can you comment at will?"
"Although I am not a scholar, I still have some knowledge. How about the princess point out some poems and let me comment on them?" Meng Xing picked up a cup of tea, took a sip gently and said.
"Please comment on this poem." Princess Yangping pointed at a page in the book and said.
"Business Master, Yong Mei."
"Beside the broken bridge outside the post office, I am lonely and have no owner..." Meng Xing almost spit out a mouthful of tea. Wasn't this written by himself? How did it become the work of a student of Qingfeng Academy?
He read on patiently.
"I am already mourning alone in the snow, and it is even more windy and cold. I have no intention of struggling for spring, and I will let everyone admire me. It is scattered into mud and crushed into soil, but only spring remains as before."
"——Meng Chunhui." The name of the lyricist was also written at the end.
Plagiarism dog! Think that if you change some words, others won’t recognize it? Meng Xing complained in his heart.
He laughed at himself again, "I am also plagiarizing a dog, plagiarizing poems from my previous life, but no one knows about it."
This man named Meng Chunhui must have been to Chunyi Tower in Guangyang County. In this era, we are very isolated. After half a year, the news from Guangyang County may not be able to reach the capital thousands of miles away. Even if it reaches the capital, he It was first made in the capital, and it can be said that others copied it.
"How about it? How about commenting on this poem?" Princess Yangping said.
Meng Xing coughed and said, "Princess, do you think this poem is good?"
"At least the description of the plum blossoms in the snow, not afraid of the wind and snow, is reasonable and reasonable, especially the sentence 'It is unintentional to struggle for spring, but it is admired by all the people', which portrays the image of plum blossoms in a quiet and unconventional way. This poem is already of great poetic quality, how can it be what you call ordinary?" Princess Yangping said calmly.
Meng Xing didn't want to argue, so he immediately picked up his pen, polished it, and wrote the original sentence on rice paper:
"Beside the broken bridge outside the post office, I am lonely and without an owner. It is already dusk and I am sad alone, and there is more wind and rain. I have no intention of struggling for spring, and I will let everyone be jealous. It is scattered into mud and crushed into dust, but only the fragrance remains the same."
He placed the pen on the inkstone and said, "Princess, what do you think of this?"
The first thing that caught Princess Yangping's eyes was the picturesque and graceful thin golden body, with a hint of sharpness and sharpness, which was unique.
It turns out that his calligraphy is really unique. I thought Sister Lingyan just said it casually. Princess Yangping thought to herself.
Princess Yangping then read it carefully and stared at her charming eyes, feeling incredible.
After such a change, it actually became more consistent, more expressive, and had an artistic conception that has been passed down through the ages. The original poem suddenly became boring.
This Meng Xing actually knows poetry, and his level seems to be pretty good.
Zhuo Lingyan next to her also widened her eyes. She just wanted to find something for Meng Xing to do so as not to be too rude in front of the princess. She didn't expect that Meng Xing could also change poems.
As a saint of Lei Zong, she naturally received a good education since she was a child. Although she cannot write poems and lyrics, her appreciation ability is still good.
Naturally, she also felt that after the changes to the poem, it became more extraordinary and meaningful.
"That's right! I didn't expect that you, a monk in the martial arts system, would actually know how to modify this poem and write it better than the original composer. It's beyond expectations. It seems that you are also a talented person."
After Princess Yangping was surprised, she immediately regained her cool and noble temperament and said: "How about this, how about you write me another poem? The poem must contain the word 'wind and rain'."
The anger in Princess Yangping's heart has calmed down a lot, but she is also thinking about taking the exam. If the other party can write a good poem, the penalty of copying can be exempted.
You white lotus, you ask for this now and that for the next, can you please play with me and satisfy my request? Meng Xing complained in his heart.
However, the other party is a princess, and she seems to have a lot of power in the Great Qin. She is a force that can be won over. If I want to find out the reason for the disappearance of the sect master, it will definitely be much easier with the help of the princess. Therefore, establish a good relationship with the other party, and in the future The road might be easier to walk.
In order to have a good relationship with the princess, you must also reflect your own value. Writing a poem that can be spread thousands of miles is undoubtedly the best way to reflect your current value.
Although force can also be used to demonstrate value, now is not the time.
The young girl Zhuo Lingyan is willing to bring her to the princess. She must also want to introduce herself to the princess and win some connections for herself. After all, in a small place like Zhenwuzong, it is too slow to develop.
By the way, she is so anxious to find some background for herself. Could it be that she has taken a fancy to myself? Is she conquered by my talent?
Starting from talent, falling into appearance, and being loyal to character?
