Qin Wenxi immediately glared at Du Ning and sneered: "Since Du Jun thinks Qin's poems are unacceptable, please ask Du Jun for advice."
Fan Heshan frowned slightly, with a look of disgust flashing in his eyes. It was a bit too much to embarrass Du Ning at the beginning of the literary meeting.
Du Ning smiled and said: "The reason why I laughed was because I simply thought this poem was very interesting. I never thought that the two gentlemen thought that I thought the poem was not well written, but I was embarrassed to speak out, so Do you want to use my words to criticize Mr. Qin?"
Wei Boqing and Lu Xionghua's expressions suddenly changed. They didn't expect Du Ning to react so quickly. Not only did he quickly resolve his embarrassment, but he also bit them back.
It was clear that they intended to provoke Du Ning and Qin Wenxi, but in the end, it was Du Ning who provoked Qin Wenxi and the two great scholars.
Their invisible fists seemed to hit invisible cotton.
Fan Heshan nodded silently, extremely satisfied with Du Ning's performance. He thought that Du Ning had come prepared for this trip, so it seemed that there was no need to worry too much.
Lu Xionghua said hurriedly: "Du Jun misunderstood, we will never..."
Before Lu Xionghua could finish his words, Du Ning said loudly: "Since the two gentlemen want me to criticize Mr. Qin, then I will just find fault with you. If there is any offense, I hope Mr. Qin will do it." Please bear with me."
"Presumptuous!"
Lu Xionghua was furious. As a dignified scholar, Du Ning forcibly interrupted him. He simply didn't take him seriously.
However, Du Ning didn't even look at Lu Xionghua, as if he was ignoring Lu Xionghua's existence. This attitude made Lu Xionghua feel that his self-esteem had been greatly challenged.
Fan Heshan said: "Mr. Lu, it's very impolite for you to interrupt when Du Jun is talking. Moreover, you don't have the qualifications to say that Du Jun is presumptuous."
"You..."
Lu Xionghua was so angry that his chest heaved violently, and he couldn't say a word. He was so angry that he was obviously interrupted by Du Ning. Why did he interrupt Du Ning instead?
Wei Boqing, who was standing next to him, wanted to interrupt, but when he saw Fan Heshan inadvertently cast a stern look, he closed his mouth involuntarily due to guilt.
Qin Wenxi stared at Du Ning and said, "Okay, since Du Jun wants to find fault with my poems, please ask Du Jun for advice. Qin is all ears."
While speaking, he showed a strong look of contempt and disdain.
Qin Wenxi is quite confident in his poetry. Even if his poetry has flaws, in such a short period of time, Du Ning may not be able to find faults in it.
This must be Du Ning's bluff.
"You're welcome then."
Du Ning said: "'Wrap walnuts in sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing, and wash glutinous rice like pearls in well water.' It is not difficult to understand these two lines of poetry. They say that walnut kernels are wrapped in sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing, and the like is washed with well water.
The glutinous rice balls are as good as pearls. The following sentence, "The rice dumplings made from glutinous rice dumplings made by Kong family are good, and they are selling Yuanxiao in the wind while trying the lamps." It is saying that the Kong family's dumplings made with glutinous rice balls are good, and they are selling Yuanxiao in the wind while the light of the lamps is being tested.
”
"We all know that the Confucius family is a sage family with a great reputation in the literary world. Have we ever heard that the Confucius family is famous for selling glutinous rice balls with dripping powder? So this sentence seems out of place. It is not only unrealistic, but also excessive.
Flattery can even be said to be flattering the Kong family."
When he said this, many scholars laughed and pointed at Qin Wenxi.
Qin Wenxi suddenly blushed, and his whole face felt hot. His poems were indeed flattering the Kong family, but he never expected that Du Ning would see through his thoughts so quickly, and expose them directly in front of such a scholar, letting him
I feel extremely ashamed and angry.
Wei Boqing and Lu Xionghua were speechless for a moment. Such blatant accusations against a bachelor's poetry and prose were extremely humiliating in such a public place. However, Du Ning used their excuse to attack and claimed that he was "
"It's hard to find fault in an egg", then no matter how unworthy Du Ning criticizes Qin Wenxi's poems, it is a matter of course, but it will not be true.
Lu Xionghua's face turned green and white for a while, and he was extremely angry. Not only did it not dampen Du Ning's morale, but it also made Qin Wenxi lose face in public. Naturally, Lu Xionghua, who was also from the Liao Kingdom, also lost face. p>
Kong Chengshun nodded slightly and said: "Du Jun's analysis is to the point, it really makes sense!"
After finishing speaking, he looked at Qin Wenxi meaningfully.
Qin Wenxi's expression suddenly changed. He could feel Kong Chengshun's disdainful gaze, which was obviously very contemptuous of his flattering behavior.
This shows that Kong Chengshun agrees with Du Ning's analysis and believes that Qin Wenxi is flattering the Confucian family. Not only does this not flatter the Confucian family, but it will arouse the Confucian family's resentment.
Flattery is a derogatory term, and no one likes flattery from others.
Qin Wenxi gritted his teeth, raised his hand to Du Ning, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Du, for your advice. Since you pointed out the flaws in Qin's poems, please help Qin revise them."
At the same time, he showed a sinister smile. If the poems revised by Du Ning were not satisfactory, Qin Wenxi would counterattack without mercy, which would damage Du Ning's morale and confidence.
Lu Xionghua also said hurriedly: "Mr. Qin is right, we have admired Yun Qijun's name for a long time, but we have never seen it with our own eyes. Today at this New Year's Eve cultural gathering, Du Jun can open our eyes.
”
Wei Boqing was also determined not to give up, and echoed: "Du Jun's literary talents are all over the world. Maybe after Du Jun's revision, the artistic conception of this poem can be sublimated."
Fan Heshan said with a look of displeasure: "For the two gentlemen to say such words at this time, it would be a bit difficult for Du Jun. It is not easy for Du Jun to point out the shortcomings of poetry. How can he improve the poetry?"
Isn’t this making things difficult for others?”
Lu Xionghua said with a smile: "Mr. Fan's words are wrong. Du Jun can see the flaws in Mr. Qin's poems at a glance. He must be able to 'prescribe the right medicine' to modify it, which will not trouble Du Jun."
"Du Jun is indeed quite talented in literature, but he is such a character. Even I don't have that much respect. Why do you have to let Du Jun change his words at his own request?"
Fan Heshan glanced at the two great scholars, showing an extremely contemptuous expression.
The expressions of Wei Boqing and Lu Xionghua suddenly turned ugly. As a great scholar of the Yun Kingdom, Fan Heshan would naturally speak for Du Ning.
Qin Wenxi said hurriedly: "Mr. Fan, you can't say that. Today is the Lantern Festival Literary Meeting. Scholars from all over the world gather here. Naturally, they focus on literary exchanges. As a literary monarch of the human race, Du Jun should be a scholar like us."
Of course, if Du Jun did not revise it well, Qin would not dare to embarrass Du Jun and would still be extremely grateful to Du Jun."
These words were so beautifully said that Fan Heshan was speechless, but he knew in his heart what Qin Wenxi was trying to do. If Du Ning really failed to change, Qin Wenxi could not find excuses to criticize Du Ning, but there were so many countries
Scholars from aristocratic families will definitely take this opportunity to attack Duning's reputation.
"Since Mr. Qin asked me to revise the poem, I will be embarrassed. If the revision is not good, please give me your advice." Du Ning said.
"Then there is Mr. Laudu."
Qin Wenxi said this, but his eyes were full of contempt and disdain. He didn't believe that Du Ning could revise his poems in such a short time.
Du Ning said slowly: "Looking at the whole poem, I think only one word needs to be modified."
"What word?"
Qin Wenxi's expression changed and she stared at Du Ning closely.
Wei Boqing and Lu Xionghua raised the corners of their mouths slightly, as if they might see something funny and laugh out loud at any time.
I saw Du Ning writing the revised poem on the desk and presenting it to everyone.
Walnuts wrapped in sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing,
Rice is like pearls washed out of a well.
I heard that Kongcheng dripping powder is good,
Selling Yuanxiao in the lantern style.
Just changing the word "home" to the word "city" and replacing "small" with "big" instantly improved the layout.
"Okay!"
There were bursts of applause from all around, and everyone was amazed by Du Ning's revised poems.
Qin Wenxi wrote "Kong family" to flatter the most holy family, but Du Ning changed it to "Kongcheng" to promote the name of Kongcheng, so that the entire Kongcheng people would benefit and would not bury the most holy family. Although there is only one word difference, the effect is vastly different.
Both Wei Boqing and Lu Xionghua were stunned. They were already prepared to criticize Du Ning. However, Du Ning only changed one word, which greatly improved the artistic conception of the entire poem. This made them prepare to criticize Du Ning.
There is no use in criticizing Du Ning.
Qin Wenxi also stood there blankly, unable to say a word for a long time.
Fan Heshan said with great joy: "Haha... What a Yunqijun. Mr. Qin only flatters one Kong family, but you flatter the entire Kongcheng. No aristocratic family is left behind. You are still good at this!"
"Haha..."
Many scholars laughed together, but they were not laughing at each other, but laughing with great praise, giving Du Ning recognition.
Fan Heshan laughed and said that both Qin Wenxi and Du Ning were flattering, but in fact only Qin Wenxi was flattering, and Du Ning was just making the content of the poem more realistic.
"Show your ugliness, show your ugliness."
Du Ning bowed his hands to everyone, then looked at Qin Wenxi and said: "Mr. Qin didn't say a word. He seemed not satisfied with the modification of the word "I". It seems that Wen Siquanyong had a better idea and asked Mr. Qin for some advice.
, let me and many other scholars learn from it.”
Qin Wenxi was immediately ashamed and angry. He didn't expect that Du Ning would fight back like this, which made him unable to guard against it. Du Ning's revised poem was irreversible. If he forcibly revised it, it would be nondescript.
"Qin was just shocked by Du Jun's literary talent. I didn't expect that just changing one word would elevate the artistic conception of Qin's poems. Qin was resigned to being defeated." Qin Wenxi gritted his teeth and said.
"Oh, I see, I have misunderstood." Su Yuan said slowly.
Many scholars secretly laughed, but then they all came to their senses. They wanted to dampen Du Ning's morale at today's literary meeting, and let Du Ning suffer a blow before leaving for Lanzhou, but it was Qin Wenxi who was embarrassed.
This is not a scene that scholars from all over the world want to see.
Wei Boqing and Lu Xionghua looked at each other, their expressions became extremely serious, and their lips parted slightly, not knowing what was being transmitted secretly.
Fan Heshan joked: "Du Jun can sublimate the artistic conception of a poem by just changing one word. From my point of view, the leader of the Yuanxi Literary Society must be Du Jun. How about deciding on the leader?" Many people were dissatisfied, and the expressions of Wei Boqing and Lu Xionghua changed even more. They wanted to attack Du Ning's reputation and confidence. If Du Ning could easily win the leadership, then their
Effort will become a joke.
Qin Wenxi said: "Mr. Fan, you are too confident in Du Jun. I admit that Du Jun is indeed quite talented in literature. But today, with the literary elites from all over the world gathered together, it is unclear who will win."
Lu Xionghua echoed: "Mr. Qin is right. The literary talents of all countries are here, and it must be a competition among the heroes. Mr. Fan should not jump to conclusions easily, so as not to make people laugh."
Fan Heshan said contemptuously: "I was just talking casually. Look at what makes you nervous. Du Jun is already famous all over the world. There is no need to pay attention to the competition for literary names above the literary society. He naturally wants to leave the opportunity to become famous.
Others, Du Jun, do you think so?"
Du Ning nodded lightly, feeling grateful for Fan Heshan's probing. With Fan Heshan's words, even if he did not perform well today, scholars from all over the world would not be able to cause any actual harm to his literary name.
Wei Boqing and Lu Xionghua were so angry that today's Yuanxi literary meeting was disrupted by Fan Heshan, disrupting their original plans.
The Lantern Festival Essay Fair continued, and not long after, another poem was presented.
Kong Chengshun said: "This is a poem written by Mr. Sun Jun, a scholar from Liangguo University. Let's appreciate it together."
"If there is a lamp without a moon, it will not entertain people; if there is a moon without a lamp, it will not be spring.
When spring arrives in the world, people are like jade, and when the lamp is burning, the moon is like silver.
The streets are full of pearls and emeralds, village girls, and the gods of Sheng and Song Contest.
If you don't show your beauty and open your mouth to smile, how can you spend this good time?"
After reading this poem, many readers applauded.
Wei Boqing couldn't wait to say: "Mr. Sun's poems are very well written, with excellent artistic conception, and they are very consistent with the theme of the Lantern Festival. If nothing unexpected happens, he hopes to be among the top ten, and even have a chance to compete for this article.
The leader of the meeting."
"Mr. Wei is right!" Lu Xionghua hurriedly agreed.
The two great scholars sang a tune and tried every means to get others to compete for the top spot, with Du Ning ranking second. This behavior disgusted many scholars. Even if it was to target Du Ning, they couldn't be so shameless.
"Two gentlemen, you are really honored. Sun attended the literary meeting today just to study. How can he dare to compete for the top spot? Please don't make fun of Sun's literary name."
Sun Jun spoke hurriedly and humbly, with a look of sincerity and fear. He didn't want to be stupidly used by two great scholars and pushed to the forefront.
Wei Boqing's eyes flashed with anger, but he still said calmly: "Mr. Sun, there is no need to be modest. I just said that you have hope."
