Chapter 372 Spring River Flower Moon Night
"Yeah, it's pretty good, it's delicious!"
Qin Yong didn't know that his behavior was angered by the public. He only knew that since he couldn't think of it for a while, it seemed understandable to have lunch first to change his mind.
After all, eating in the examination room seems to be something allowed by the Great Zhou Dynasty's laws and regulations. Since it is something allowed by the Great Zhou Dynasty's laws and regulations, do you care when will it eat it? Moreover, even if it tastes like it, it seems that it is inevitable?
And, don’t say it, since he ate this lunch and eased his nervousness, his thinking has really become active. So, as soon as he put down his chopsticks, he thought of a poem that suits the title.
"The delicate clouds are tricked, the flying stars are circulating, and the silver man is far away from each other. Once the golden wind and jade dew meet, it will be better than it. There are countless people in the world. Tenderness is like water, good time is like a dream, and I will be able to look at the road back to the magpie bridge. If the love lasts for a long time, how can it be there, day and night."
That's right, the poem he thought of that fits the title is the poem "The Magpie Bridge Fairy" by Qin Guan, a great poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, later generations.
This is a poem that specializes in the meeting between the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl on the Chinese Valentine's Day. At the same time, it is also a poem that changed the ancient concept of love. "If the two loves last for a long time, how can they be there? Day and night." It is obvious that this shocking and shocking stroke has sublimated the entire poem to a new level of thought.
Therefore, these two lines of poetry were deeply loved even in modern society thousands of years later, so it was not to mention the feudal era of the Northern Song Dynasty.
You should know that in the feudal era of the Northern Song Dynasty, although the social atmosphere was considered to be clear enough, in the view of men's love and women's love, women are usually regarded as subordinates of men, rather than equal relationships between men and women.
Especially in those side rooms and concubines, many men even only regard them as their own personal belongings. When they like them, they can be happy day and night, but once they are bored, they can be so ruthless that they can give their concubines directly to others. Therefore, the so-called love is naturally a luxury for women of this era.
However, in this poem by Qin Guan, he clearly denied the vulgar concept of love that is joyful and happy all day long, and praised the loyal love that lasts forever. Under his careful refinement and ingenious conception, the ancient theme turned into a shining brush and ink, bursting out dazzling sparks of thought, which almost made all mediocre romance works pale. Therefore, many women who had just heard this poem for the first time would be captured in just a moment.
Now, since Qin Yong wrote this poem on the answer sheet, when this poem was truly spread, it is not necessary to say that he would also secretly admit the hearts of many women in the world. However, these things are later things and it is impossible for him to know, so I won’t mention them for now.
After Qin Yong wrote this song "The Magpie Bridge Fairy", he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Because according to his own opinion, the proposition of "The Magpie Bridge Fairy" and the Chinese Valentine's Day should be more appropriate, that is, he has answered this question, so there is no need to worry about whether he will hand in the blank paper.
This is actually the situation he was most worried about in the exam. Because, if this is true, even if he has the recommended quota from Hanshan Academy, he will definitely be on the list. But he must be the last of the hundreds of Jinshis. It is even possible that the fact that he handed in the blank paper in the exam was also spread. At that time, how could he be so dear to his dignified "Young Master Yongyue"?
Of course, if he has not handed in the blank paper, it may not be guaranteed that he will not be ranked last among all the new Jinshis. However, he can at least maintain the most basic face, so he is naturally relieved. However, he still needs to continue to consider the remaining nine questions, so he can only focus on the second question next.
"The spring river tide is connected to the sea level, and the bright moon on the sea is born with the tide. The rippling waves are thousands of miles away, and there is no bright moon in the spring river! The river flows around the fragrant land, and the moon shines on the flower forests all look like sludge; the frost flows in the sky and does not fly, and the white sand on the ground cannot be seen."
"The river and sky are all in one color without dust, and the lonely moon is in the bright sky. Who is the first to see the moon by the river? When did the moon shine on the river? Life has been endless for generations, and the moon looks similar every year. I don't know who the moon of the river is waiting for, but I see the Yangtze River sending flowing water."
...
"This...is this "Spring River Moon Night"? But why does it seem that there is only half a piece?"
Qin Yong didn't have much time to relax after answering the first question. As a result, when he saw the second question clearly, he was stunned again. Before, he did not pay attention to what the meaning of each question was when transcribing it. Because at that time, there was no time at all. After all, it was only a quarter of an hour, and they were still using a brush. Therefore, if Qin Yong could completely copy the question, it would be quite amazing. If he had to be harsh to understand the meaning of each question, it would be a big deal.
"Is this a 'fill-in-the-blank' question? The requirement is to fill in the second half of this "Spring River Moon Night"? But in this era, are there any questions like 'fill-in-the-blank'?"
Qin Yong was confused at this time because he suddenly realized that he really knew very little about the so-called imperial examination content of this era. That's right, before entering the examination room, although he had heard Liu Luoyao and his father Qin Pei roughly introduced it, and knew that what he wanted to take was to write poetry and lyrics, but what he didn't expect was that his father was an illiterate butcher, and what about Liu Luoyao? Although he was the number one talented woman in Yangzhou City, he was just a daughter's family and had never entered the examination room at all. Therefore, she didn't know much about the so-called examination content and form, so what they said in the end that Qin Yong knew was naturally not very thorough.
"This... these uninformed words really don't understand!"
In fact, there are more than a dozen sentences after those poems. However, these requirements are basically written in classical Chinese, so this is naturally another problem for Qin Yong.
That's right. He had guessed and confused the first question just now, but this does not mean that he could easily figure it out. Because he was really only half a bucket of water in classical Chinese. There are many words and sentences that he just couldn't understand at all, so after reading it for a long time, he still didn't know what others were talking about. However, one thing he understood, that is, the song "Spring River Moon Night" is actually incomplete.
"But how is this possible? Isn't this song "Spring River Moon Night" a work from Zhongzong and the Dragon Age?"
Qin Yong thought in a bit incredible. As a college graduate from later modern society, he certainly knew the poem "Spring River Flower Moon Night", and he was very familiar with it. Because even in later society, this poem called "Spring River Flower Moon Night" is very famous. Although its author Zhang Ruoxu had only two poems in his life, he was praised as "a lonely poem that is for everyone" just because of this poem "Spring River Flower Moon Night".
Of course, since Qin Yong knew who its author was and was very familiar with this poem, he naturally knew that this poem was actually born in the period of Zhongzong and the Dragon. At that time, the Great Zhou Dynasty today had not been completely established, so its history is naturally completely consistent with the plane where Qin Yong once lived. In other words, in this era, the poem "Spring River Flower Moon Night" should have been written by Zhang Ruoxu. However, I don't know what the reason is, so it actually lacks a very large part of the last one?
