(The fourth update today is too exhausting, please collect it.)
Several people in the small room stood up and clasped their fists to salute. Although they had not met, did not know each other, and did not even know each other's names, they could still say the polite words "Long-term admiration" smoothly.
Su Jin and Xia Silin, young men in brocade clothes, sat down on the chairs at the side and ordered the servant at the door to add two pairs of cups and chopsticks. Then they said: "I am afraid that the two young masters are students from the academy who have the time to sneak into the small restaurant."
It's very elegant to read poems and enjoy the scenery; I dare you to ask your names."
Su Jin smiled and said: "Brother, you're welcome. My two brothers are indeed academy students. Their surname is Su, and one is Jin. This one is my cousin, whose surname is Xia, Silin."
Mr. Jinyi smiled and said: "The two of you who signed up and didn't sign up seem to be underage and weak champions. I guess they didn't choose their numbers."
Su Jin said: "Is this why you are also a student in the academy?"
The young master in Jinyi looked at each other and laughed loudly. An old man in soap clothes next to him twisted his beard and said with a smile: "I'm afraid Yingtian Academy can't accommodate this big Buddha. What little brother said is really funny."
Su Jinxin said: "I just responded casually. Don't I know that you are a dignified person with this style? It's just that you didn't report your number, so I had to hint you to report your number."
Sure enough, the young man in brocade clothes stopped laughing and said: "His surname is Zhao, this is Mr. Tang, this is Mr. Qin. The two young masters over there are one named Liu and the other named Su. One of your relatives is here."
Su Jin and Xia Silin renamed themselves and were busy after a while before they sat down again. The hotel manager had already received the news and asked Su Jin where to put the cooked dishes. Before Su Jin could answer, the young master in Jinyi took over all the decisions.
Those few dishes were added to the banquet.
Mr. Liu picked up the jug and filled the glasses for everyone. Su Jin paid attention to the order in which he poured the wine. First Mr. Zhao in Jinyi, then Mr. Tang, then he filled it for himself and Xia Silin, and then he poured it for Mr. Qin, Mr. Su and himself.
Man Man suddenly had a preliminary understanding of the dignity and inferiority of the people sitting here.
Mr. Zhao raised his glass and said, "We are destined to meet each other today. Let's drink this glass before we talk."
Everyone picked up their wine glasses to drink, but Xia Silin stretched out his hand and tugged on Su Jin's sleeves, pointing at the wine glass in the direction of the academy and licking his lips. Su Jin immediately understood what she meant, so he put down the wine glass and said, "If you forgive me, I will be the next one."
The two brothers still have to go back to the academy to listen to the lecture in the afternoon. Even if you don't drink this wine, don't you think you are drunk and disrespectful of your husband by using tea instead of wine?"
Mr. Zhao thought for a moment and raised his head and said to the servant outside the curtain: "Take my name card and go to the school to find Professor Cao. I will give Mr. Su and Mr. Xia a leave of absence. He said that the two young masters are drinking with me, so they will not attend school in the afternoon."
went."
The servant agreed and started to leave. Su Jin hurriedly said: "No need. When I first arrived at the academy, I realized that I was not very good at studying. I was about to work hard seriously. Why did I miss the lecture so casually?"
Mr. Zhao was stunned for a moment and obviously did not expect that someone would disobey him. He was a little embarrassed for a moment. Mr. Liu observed his words and said: "Master Su, why are you so anxious to study hard all the time? Isn't it a day's work and half a day's work? If you don't go to school, it may not have an impact."
Why bother spoiling everyone's interest?"
Su Jin hurriedly accused Su Jin again and said: "Although that is the case, don't you hear that 'without accumulating steps, there is no river, and without accumulating small streams, there is no river.' Knowledge is accumulated in this day and a half and becomes enlightened."
There are so many people who have regained their sight."
Mr. Zhao put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "There are so many good mornings. It's a wise saying. Since this is the case, I don't insist on tea and tea rights. Just treat it as drinking."
After saying that, he raised his cup and drank it all first. He showed the bottom of the cup and said, "Do you think I'm cheating on you when I drink tea? You showed me the bottom of the cup." He picked up the tea cup and drank all the tea in one gulp with Xia Silin. .
Everyone picked up the dishes and praised them for being hungry. Although the dishes were not exquisite, they were original, light and delicious.
Mr. Zhao put down his chopsticks and everyone hurriedly followed suit and stopped eating. Xia Silin stopped eating out of politeness. Only Su Jin took two river shrimps with a fork, bit them carefully, peeled off the shells and threw them into his mouth to chew.
Everyone looked at him in surprise. Mr. Zhao's face flashed with a hint of displeasure, but immediately returned to normal. He gently wiped the corners of his mouth with no oil stains with a snow-white brocade handkerchief and said:
"Just now I heard the two of them talking about poetry, and I was very insightful. I have always liked poetry, so I took the liberty to invite you. Just now, Mr. Su gave Liu Mengde's evaluation of Liu Mengde's poem as 'borrowing things to express one's emotions through poetry. I deeply agree with you. Do you know what Liu Mengde was imprisoned for?"
Su Jin knew that this was Mr. Zhao's original intention of inviting the two of him to sit together, which was to talk about poetry. If he was not allowed to meet this demand, the free lunch would be boring, so he cooperated. He said: "I would also like to give you my respect and explain it to you. I am also very interested in it."
Mr. Zhao laughed and said happily: "This was the disaster caused by the party strife in the previous dynasty. Liu Mengde was slandered by the Yongzhen Party and demoted to Shuzhong as a minor official. He wrote this poem when he saw the gold diggers. Indeed, as Mr. Su said, it came from his heart. There is a sense of resentment.β
Mr. Tang, who was sitting next to Mr. Zhao, suddenly interjected: "Liu Mengde participated in the party struggle and was demoted. He brought the blame on himself. His behavior is not advisable. Although the poems are good, they are full of sins and disturb people's hearts and should be punished."
Su Jin's eyes almost fell out of his head. What kind of bastard is this man named Tang? How could he be found guilty? If he were an official, wouldn't he be a bastard like Zhu Shiyong?
Mr. Zhao said without comment: "Today we will talk about Fengyue. It is not appropriate to talk about other things. Mr. Qin took out the banner that we were watching just now and let the two young masters read Liu Meng's poem. I will not lose to him in this poem." .β
The old man who was replaced by Mr. Qin hurriedly nodded in agreement and took out a rolled vertical scroll leaning against the corner and hung it on the wall. He gently unfolded the small half scroll and saw only the first four sentences of a long and short sentence written in cursive. Jump into everyone's eyes.
Su Jin only took one look and was dumbfounded and speechless; Mr. Zhao smiled and said: "Let's first say that the reason why we only let you two read one sentence is because we are afraid that the content of this poem will affect their evaluation. How would you like the two gentlemen to comment on this line of cursive calligraphy?"
Su Jin was still in a daze and was speechless. Mr. Tang and Liu Su saw his stupid look with disdain in their eyes and said in their hearts: Your Majesty, you are too casual. These two people don't know how to appreciate, but they are just talking nonsense next door. Fan happened to say something like that and you let him go. The two of them came over and now their true colors were revealed.
Seeing Su Jin in a daze, Xia Silin had no choice but to bite the bullet. Fortunately, she had really studied this matter. A glance at the glance revealed who she was copying, so he said: "This seems to be a study of Yanti... it must be because of the structure of this painting." Itβs the body.β
"Not bad, not bad." Mr. Zhao said with an excited smile, stroking his palms: "Young Master Xia has some skills. This is indeed a work of learning about appearance and body. Can you comment on it further?"
Xia Silin looked at the hanging scroll carefully, shook his head slightly and wrinkled his eyebrows slightly.
Mr. Zhao hurriedly asked: "What? Is there something wrong?"
Xia Silin pointed to the line and said: "In addition to the vigorous and vigorous style, the Yan style also pays attention to the strokes, such as falling stone paintings, such as Xia Yun hook, such as Qu Jinge, such as hair and crossbow, vertical and horizontal, like low and high, and the four strokes of this sentence.
At first glance, it looks good, but upon closer inspection, it turns out that it looks more like the spirit than the charm."
After Su Jin thought about what he said when he came to see Xia Silin, Mr. Zhao's face became very embarrassed. The faces of several people in the audience also became gloomy, and in a flash of thought, they suddenly guessed that this picture was probably from ten to one.
This person written by Mr. Zhao hurriedly told Xia Silin to shut up with his eyes.
Xia Silin's mouth was so hot that he didn't notice Su Jin's eyes as he kept chattering: "If I have to criticize it, I can only say that it is like a random stone painting, like a dark cloud hook, like a curved iron sword, like a bad bow.
There seems to be no way to talk about being low-key and high-spirited, let alone extravagant talk."
Xia Silin's crisp words instantly changed this extremely unflattering scene, and everyone's eyes changed from contempt to hostility.
Su Jin quickly spoke up and smoothed things over: "My good brother always likes to go to extremes when he talks. Although this picture seems to be slightly flawed, he does not hide his beauty. The person who wrote this picture must be open-minded and must be an elegant person."
Xia Silin rolled his eyes at Su Jin and said, "How can you say that? Mr. Zhao wants us to tell the truth when criticizing this. Why do you come up with such pretentious words? What are the minor flaws?
Nonsense."
Su Jin smiled bitterly and shouted in her heart: Silly girl, you have offended people, why are you such a stupid elder sister? You can't even observe words and emotions.dd
