Chapter 652 Prince An
Prince An Wu Huan's mood at this moment is difficult to describe.
As a prince, he received the best education since childhood.
He studied under Xian Youzhi, a layman in a thatched cottage, one of the three great Confucian scholars in the Wu Kingdom. Under Xian Youzhi's education, he not only had unique insights into sacred studies, but also had extremely high attainments in poetry and articles.
He knew at a very young age that he had no chance of becoming the emperor, so he devoted all his energy and body to studying.
His talent and learning were recognized by the literati of the entire Wu Kingdom, and he was even regarded by many literati as the fourth great Confucian of the Wu Kingdom!
His poems were widely circulated among the students of Wu State and were also widely sung in the brothels of Wu State.
The calligraphy he wrote is a treasure of calligraphy that many people covet. Those who get it even enshrine his calligraphy and regard it as a family heirloom!
Therefore, in the minds of Wu literati, his title as Prince An should be changed to Prince Wen more appropriately.
Of course, this is an imperial edict and cannot be changed.
But it is enough to illustrate his true talent and learning, as well as his status in the Wu literary world.
However, in the past year, many poems by Li Chenan came from Ningguo. Suddenly, Li Chenan's poems became popular throughout the Wu Kingdom, covering his limelight and causing him to lose some of his color.
But Prince An seems to have an extremely broad mind.
Since the name Li Chenan became famous in the Wu Kingdom, he has never written a poem again.
He did not have any hatred towards Li Chenan, but instead praised Li Chenan greatly at many poetry gatherings.
He believed that Li Chenan's poems were indeed rare in the world, and he sighed to himself that they were so rare.
He also said that if there can only be one poetry immortal in the world, it must be Li Chenan.
He wrote down all the poems and articles of Li Chenan that were introduced to Wu State in the form of calligraphy. It is said that in order to preserve those poems, he even built a building.
The name of the building is Exiled Immortal Building.
There are not many scrolls hanging in the building, all of which are poems and articles by Li Chenan.
Wu Huan sincerely likes Li Chenan's poems and articles.
When he learned that Li Chenan had died on the top of the Western Mountain in Shuzhou, it was said that he locked himself in the Immortal Exile Tower, sat alone all night looking at the poems, and drank two jars of wine.
Very drunk.
Sing wildly.
Sigh——
"Since God gave birth to you, Li Chenan, you should shine on this world for five hundred years!"
"Yet, you ascended to heaven and became an immortal!"
"Of course you can't stay in the world, and you won't see the road for eternity."
"Woohoo...looking at the lonely tree in the empty courtyard!"
"Remembering the past in the banished immortal tower."
"I will drink wine with you in mind, morning and night."
Prince An was sympathetic to the Ningguo Poet Immortal. Although the two had never met, Prince An had been a close friend of Li Chenan for a long time.
In Li Chenan's poems, in the tunes sung in brothels, and in various cultural gatherings.
People say that since ancient times, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts, but this prince bluntly said that Li Chenan's writing is the deserved number one in the world!
This naturally made many students of Wu State dissatisfied, but they were still dissatisfied. After all, they could not compose poems that could surpass Li Chenan's poems.
Prince An said that Li Chenan's death was a huge loss to the literary world, and his poems were the last song of the world.
His emergence is unprecedented, and there will be no one since...
But tonight, he accidentally met Li Chenan's husband in this Jianghu tavern!
Only then did he realize that Li Chenan was taught by this gentleman who was about the same age as him.
After all, poetry requires some talent. Before, he didn't think that Mr. Li could write better poetry than Li Chenan, but now...
After listening to this poem, he had already felt huge waves in his heart!
This word is wonderful!
Compared with the poems left by Li Chenan, it is difficult to judge whether this poem is superior or inferior!
But this poem comes from Mr. Li Chenan, and the meaning in the poem seems to be more open-minded. This Mr. Li, with one word, can see through the world!
"So many things in ancient and modern times are all made up of jokes!"
"Sir... a great talent!"
"My King, no, I, Wu Huan, am lucky to get to know Mr. Xian today!"
Wu Huan grabbed Li Chenan's arms, and he bowed slightly, completely letting go of his identity.
"The gentleman's casual words make all the poetry in the world eclipse!"
"Seeing that your husband is about the same age as me, if you don't give up..."
He suddenly turned around and said to the man who looked like a military officer following him:
"Huo Yizhen, please quickly ask the shopkeeper here to serve me the best food and wine!"
"Tonight, I will drink wine with Mr. Li for this poem and to get to know Mr. Li and talk all night long!"
The man named Huo Yizhen bowed and said, "I'll do it now!"
Li Chenan's eyes fell on Huo Yizhen's face.
He was slightly startled, feeling that this person seemed familiar.
I thought about it carefully but couldn't remember it.
Unable to let him think too much, Wu Huan took Li Chenan's hand very attentively and walked towards the pavilion under the yellow horn tree.
Qin Rigang and his wife quickly stood up and stepped aside.
Zhongli Ruoshui was still sitting. She looked at Li Chenan with stars in her eyes, because the poem Li Chenan casually said just now was so good!
Wu Huan led Li Chenan to the pavilion. Li Chenan stretched out his hand and introduced: "Shangguan Feiyan of Zhuojing..."
"We come from the mountains and don't have so many secular rules. Your Highness, please forgive me!"
Wu Huan waved his hands quickly, and even bowed to Zhong Li Ruoshui: "Sir, he is a worldly expert, and his wife is naturally a noble and refined person. Why should you care about such secular rules? I have met my wife, Mrs. Sister-in-law!"
This is beautifully said.
Since he calls Zhongli Ruoshui his wife, he regards Li Chenan as his elder brother.
The distance is so close, it's so natural, and it doesn't even make people feel disgusted at all.
Li Chenan couldn't help but take a second look at the fat Prince An.
Fat people usually cannot be underestimated.
Especially fat people who are gaining weight!
The two of them sat down, and the waiter had already come over to clean up the things on the table.
Of course, more waiters ran to get the bodies out of the ground.
The visitor is Prince An.
Prince An can't be allowed to drink wine amidst the strong smell of blood.
Xia Hua stood neatly behind Li Chenan, and the eyes on her beautiful face were as bright as the Milky Way at this moment.
She knows her choice is right!
The teacher can teach a poet like Li Chenan, and the talent of the teacher is more than ten dozen!
This poem is the first poem I heard the gentleman composed on the spur of the moment.
With this poem alone, your name will surely spread all over the world!
But, what is the name of this word?
Just when Xia Hua was curious, Prince An personally poured a cup of tea for Li Chenan and Zhongli Ruoshui. He leaned over and asked with great anticipation:
"May I ask, sir, what is the name of this word?"
Li Chenan stretched out his hand, took the tea, and said with a smile: "This poem is called "Linjiang Immortal, the Rolling Water of the Yangtze River Passing East"."
"Oh, good words, good words!"
"By the way, where are you going, sir?"
"I mean, sir, if you have time, can you go with me to Kyoto for a while, and then follow me to Xiling County, my vassal territory?"
"That's right. To be honest, sir, I have admired your disciple Li Chenan for a long time. Unfortunately, he died young, which makes me very sad."
"I don't have any hobbies, I just like poetry and articles."
