Duan Fei never fights an unprepared battle. He smiled slightly and chanted loudly: "
The storm in the world is beyond my generation,
As soon as you enter the examination room, the years rush you;
Fame and fortune are all in vain,
It's better to live a drunken life.
Holding the pen and boiling the ink, the ink flows like rain,
The phoenix comes out of its axis and the bird takes flight;
Earthly things are like tides and people are like water,
I just sigh that a few people have returned to the court."
This poem was modified by Duan Fei from a poem in the movie "The Swordsman". He recited it in a cadence, which was quite similar to that of Linghu Chong in the movie when he recited it. He had the momentum of a poem in my hand, and I just wanted to watch him.
Su Rong, who was laughing, also opened her eyes wide, stupidly, stupidly...
"A lot of great things happened in my generation, but as soon as I entered the examination room, the years rushed by; all the fame and wealth were in vain, which is worse than a life of drunkenness..." The mottled wooden door opened with a creak from the inside, revealing a thin figure with gray hair and an elegant face.
The old man with a long beard stood at the door, looked at Duan Fei and said: "Did you write this poem? Yangzhou Duan Fei? Well, this is the first time I heard this name. Whose disciple are you, and what do you want from me, Tang Yin?"
Duan Fei glanced at Su Rong proudly, then bowed to Tang Bohu and said, "I came here specially to invite Tang Jieyuan to be my teacher. I'm here to give you a thousand taels of apprenticeship. I hope the teacher will accept it."
Tang Bohu shouted: "Wait a minute, where do you live? Who invited you? Although Tang is down and out, how can he be a follower of others? No matter how many yellow and white things there are, I will never accept students casually."
Duan Fei said respectfully: "I have little knowledge and have many things that I don't understand when I read. I have admired Tang Jieyuan for a long time, so I took the liberty to pay a visit. Yi Neng invited Tang Jieyuan to be my teacher, so that I can ask for advice at any time."
A gleam of light appeared in Tang Bohu's cloudy eyes. He looked at Duan Fei carefully and said, "With your talent and mind in writing that poem, Tang is ashamed of himself. You'd better hire someone else."
Duan Fei said: "Tang Jieyuan's words are wrong. I can make some crooked poems, but the ink in my belly is really pitiful. I think back then, Tang Jieyuan was so talented in literature that he won the first place in the provincial examination, and his articles in the general examination were so outstanding that the examiner also praised them.
He blurted out and exclaimed, "How can I be able to memorize Tang Jieyuan's talents and knowledge?"
Tang Bohu said calmly: "The two articles Cheng Hanlin was interested in were not written by me."
Duan Fei smiled slightly and said: "No matter what, Tang Jieyuan has real talent and learning. If Tang Jieyuan is really unwilling to give in, I will not force it. I still ask Tang Jieyuan to accept this banknote. If Tang Jieyuan is free, he can go to Yangzhou Baoying
When visiting the county, I will treat you as a distinguished guest, treat you with fine wine, and come and go as freely as if you were at home."
Tang Bohu frowned and refused again: "I appreciate Mr. Duan's kindness. Please don't call me Jie Yuan anymore. Tang is just a poor scribe who has been idle for a long time. Recently, he has been implicated by Prince Ning. He is very annoying.
, I don’t dare to involve the young master.”
Duan Fei said: "Well, why don't I call you Master Tang? Master Tang calls himself Liuru layman, so why are you still so indifferent? Prince Ning is just a clown, why should Master Tang worry about it? Go to Duan
In a certain house, Duan will take care of these common matters, so Master Tang no longer has to worry about them."
Tang Bohu was dumbfounded and muttered: "Six as a layman, six as a layman... All potential dharmas are like bubbles in dreams, like dew and lightning, and should be viewed as such. A good six like layman, Mr. Duan is from
Where did you hear this name?"
I'm sorry Tang Bohu didn't hear Duan Fei's words clearly, or maybe he forgot the other words after hearing the name of Liuru layman. Duan Fei secretly wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "This is Xiao Ke's random nonsense. If Master Tang likes it,
, might as well take this as your nickname?”
Tang Bohu recited the verse from the "Diamond Sutra" again, frowning on his forehead, he smiled and said: "There are laws and methods, just like dreams and dew, okay, from now on I will be a Liuru layman, thank you Duan
The young master gives you the title."
Duan Fei said continuously: "Don't dare, don't dare, as long as Master Tang likes it."
Tang Bohu finally opened the door, stretched out his hand and said, "Master Duan, please come in. This girl is..."
Su Rong bowed to Tang Bohu and said, "Duan Mansion's maid Su Rong has met Master Tang."
"The girl is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. She has an elegant temperament. She doesn't look like a maid." Tang Bohu said with piercing eyes: "Please take a seat, too."
"Master Tang is wrong this time. She is indeed my maid. She is grateful for my life-saving grace, so she bends down and becomes my maid. She just lost another year to me, and now she will be my maid for two years."
Where is the maid?" Duan Fei smiled triumphantly.
Su Rong said angrily: "You haven't won yet, Master Tang hasn't promised you yet."
Duan Fei smiled and said: "If you are willing to let me in, it means that Master Tang has agreed. If you don't believe me, just ask yourself."
Tang Bohu brought the tea set and started to boil water. Hearing this, he laughed and said: "Yes, I am tired of staying in this Taohua Temple. Baoying County is the hometown of my daughter's husband's family. It has the most beautiful scenery and the most lakes. I go fishing in the lakes every day.
So that I can hide from the common people who come to bother me about Prince Ning’s affairs.”
"I am also a layman. I hope Master Tang will not get bored." Duan Fei handed over the banknote again and said: "Master Tang, please accept this kindness. From now on, Master Tang will be a teacher in my house. Every month
For ten taels of silver, sir, you can travel as you like and leave at any time. If I encounter any questions that I don’t understand, I will ask you for advice."
Tang Bohu sighed, looked around the 'Peach Blossom Temple' surrounded by his disciples, and said: "Okay, I will go to the young master's house to disturb you for a while..."
Tang Bohu seemed to agree too rashly, but this was what Duan Fei expected. The real Tang Bohu was definitely not as free and happy as in the movie "Tang Bohu Lights Up the Fragrance of Autumn". When he was more than 20 years old, his family suffered successive misfortunes, including his parents, wife, and others.
My younger sisters died one after another, and the family declined. After nearly ten years of decadence, under the persuasion of my friend Zhu Zhishan, I devoted myself to studying.
He was still relegated to Zhejiang as a petty official.
Tang Bohu was disgraceful and refused to take office. From then on, he gave up officialdom and made a living by selling paintings. In the ninth year of Zhengde (1514), he went to Nanchang for more than half a year at the invitation of King Ning Zhu Chenhao. Later, he realized that King Ning had evil intentions, so he pretended to be crazy and even ran naked on the street to escape.
And return...
It is now the fourteenth year of Zhengde (1519). Tang Bohu began to be dragged down by King Ning. Historically, he was poor and sick and alone. He died in 1523 at the age of only 54. Before his death, he wrote a last posthumous poem: "Being born in the world of the world.
After the show, it doesn’t matter if you die and return to the underworld. The world on earth and the underworld are all the same, just like wandering in a foreign land." This revealed his unforgettable complex mood of nostalgia for the world but resentment and world-weariness.
Tang Bohu, who is over fifty this year, is no longer young and frivolous. He is impoverished and does not have many choices. Duan Fei treats him with sincerity and behaves completely different from ordinary businessmen and scholars. Tang Bohu feels that he has a lot to do with him.
They had something in common, so they finally agreed to him. Perhaps Tang Bohu's fate has begun to change since then... dd
