[Red Mansion] Young Master Lin Yan

bookstore.

Lin Yan and Liu Shangyuan met, "What is the situation now?"

"Today's situation is more intense than yesterday. The students from the north and the south gathered in the Zhuangyuan building and almost had another fight. It happened that Ye He was there and was bumped into by someone. Where would the students from the south be willing to let go, so they dragged them away." Said a lot of ugly things. Ye He was provoked by this, and agreed to set up a stage to fight poetry."

"It happens to be there?"

Didn't the boy say that Ye He was already prepared?

Lin Yan turned his head, but saw Liu Shangyuan hooked the corner of his mouth, "Yes, coincidentally!"

The two looked at each other, understanding each other.With Ye He's temperament, he never fights unprepared battles.He did it on purpose.But everyone felt that this was a "coincidence" and was forced to take the stage.In this way, his ability to overwhelm the Confucian scholars even more.

This is what Lin Yan thought.But the Shen family was in turmoil, and before he had time to implement it, Ye He had already taken the lead.And since Ye He, even if he and Liu Shangyuan set up a stage again, it will become "imitation", or even a conspiracy.Compete with this "coincidence".

Lin Yan was speechless, this thought was really deep.But he was more pleased.Knowing this, Liu Shangyuan also waited for him.This is the meaning of a friend. If you have a friend like this, what can you ask for.

Lin Yan smiled, "Let's go!"

The bookstore is only 200 meters away from the Zhuangyuan Building, and there are many passers-by who have heard the news along the way.

Lin Yan and Liu Shangyuan were surrounded by people, and they were recognized before they reached the Zhuangyuan Building.

"Hey, isn't this Lin Zhuangyuan and Liu Bang second?"

"Lin Zhuangyuan and Liu Bangyan are also here to fight poetry?"

Lin Yan poked Liu Shangyuan secretly, and looked at the man in confusion, "Doushi? What Doushi? I have an appointment with Shangyuan for a drink, but why are there so many people in the Zhuangyuan building today? It seems that there is no seat!"

Liu Shangyuan sniggered to himself, and was very cooperative, "It's okay, then go to Zuixianlou. There is no place to eat. If you didn't say that you don't want to eat hot pot in summer, it would be more convenient to go to your red building."

Saying that, the two turned around to leave.The student was not willing, so he grabbed him, "Since the two of you are here, let's join in the fun!"

"That's right! You two don't know, Ye Tanhua set up a stage to compete with others in poetry! How can you say that the two of you are also in the same subject as Ye Tanhua, and they are both classmates of the Imperial College. Ye Tanhua is now willing to prove his talent, don't the two Don't you want to?"

Having said that, how can they still say no?Lin Yan and Liu Shangyuan looked at each other.

The people present watched their words and expressions, and immediately pulled him over, almost pushing him directly onto the stage.Ye He was inexplicably stunned for a while.

Liu Shangyuan's face was bitter, "Brother Ye, I'm really sorry. Yanzhi and I came to have a drink, but..."

Liu Shangyuan glanced at the surrounded and impenetrable platform, feeling very helpless.Lin Yan frowned and cupped his hands, "It seems that we can't leave today. Brother Ye, do you mind if we borrow your table?"

Let me borrow your desk.

your table.

Your... table!

Ye He's heart tightened, but he also knew that his plan could be hidden from others, but Lin Yan would definitely not be able to hide it.But looking at Lin Yan and Liu Shangyuan, he panicked.In this way, he had a good performance, and he didn't know if he made wedding clothes for others.In particular, these two people were really pushed to the stage by a chance encounter on the road, and he responded to the fighting poem on his own.

It seemed that they were more unprepared "coincidences" than him.

"Brother Ye? Brother Ye seems unwilling?"

Seeing Lin Yan's innocent expression, Ye He finally resisted the urge to pinch him with one hand, and smiled subtly, "Of course I would."

Lin Yan thanked everyone, and then said to everyone: "Where is the progress now?"

"As far as the poems and prose examination questions on Chunwei were concerned, Ye Tanhua has already written four poems!"

Lin Yan looked at the table case on the stage, and there were a few pieces of paper pressed on it, which were made by Ye He.

"Nice poem!"

Lin Yan said this from the heart.Aside from other things, Ye He is talented, knowledgeable and resourceful.But in Ye He's ears, it was really harsh.

"Lin Zhuangyuan is here too!"

"Yes! Come one! Ye Tanhua has a quick talent, but in just two sticks of incense, there are four songs, each of which is extraordinary. We are willing to bow down."

Writing poetry is like no other.Few good sentences can be produced, but the four capitals are excellent products, not to mention two sticks of incense, even if they are produced in two days or two months, they are also excellent.

"Why, Lin Zhuangyuan didn't dare? Lin Zhuangyuan don't say that he is not good at poetry. How can he be the number one scholar if he is not good at poetry? Besides, if he is not good at poetry, how did the poems of Chunwei come from that day!"

Chunwei's poems and Fu have been circulating for a long time.Everyone already knows this, and it should come as no surprise.But……

Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat. Does this imply that he cheated?

He looked at the man and said, "Poetry and fu can govern the country?"

Everyone was taken aback, looking at Lin Yan and looking at each other.Ye He frowned, instantly understood Lin Yan's plan, and winked at the audience.

"What does Lin Zhuangyuan mean by this? If poems and prose are useless, what is Princess Qinghui's annual plum garden literary meeting? What is it to ask the ministers to write poems during the palace banquet?"

"Yes! Although poetry and prose cannot govern the country, it can be seen that one person is talented. The imperial examination includes poetry and prose, which can be seen. Lin Zhuangyuan should know the difficulty of the imperial examination. If the poems and prose are not good, no matter how good the others are, they will definitely not be able to enter. First!"

"Isn't Lin Zhuangyuan trying to excuse himself?"

"Lin Zhuangyuan..."

Doubts came and went.Liu Shangyuan looked sideways, "Yanzhi!"

Lin Yan smiled, gave him a reassuring look, took a step forward, and said, "Victory and defeat are unpredictable, and he is a man who bears shame. The children of Jiangdong are so talented, and it is unknown if they will come back."

Everyone present was stunned, and it took a while to come back to their senses.Lin Yan wrote it on the topic of Chunwei's poems.

Lin Yan took another step.

"The middle division is an exhaustive strategy. After a hundred battles, you will never die. The great cause is beyond the reach of personnel, so how does the head of the Wujiang Pavilion know?"

One more step.

"The power of the emperor and the king has fallen, and the [-] soldiers have dispersed to sing the songs of Chu. Wujiang is not a boat-free crossing. It is shameful to raise troops against Soochow."

one step further.

"Who knows double pupils in the east of the Yangtze River, left in the slanting grass thorns in the temple. Ruobi whispers wishful thinking, Wujiang is a hero who dies in battle."

further.

"The warriors who are exhausted from hundreds of battles mourn, and the Central Plains will never recover from the defeat. The disciples of Jiangdong are still here today, are they willing to come back for the king?"

Next step.

"Xiang Ji Ying Yang Liuhe morning, Hongmen held a banquet to celebrate the death of Qin. If you try to trick your ministers in front of the bottle, you will be lost in Yinling."

last step.

"Back then, I was as proud as a fragrant grass, and the spring breeze was good every day..."

This one is different from the previous ones. It is not a poem, but a poem by Lu You.

"I'm afraid it's especially the song of Chu's singing." The sound fell.All four were shocked.

A total of seven steps, a total of seven songs.

In ancient times, Cao Zhi wrote a poem in seven steps, but it was only one poem.This this……

Almost everyone, including Ye He, never recovered.Lin Yan was already looking at Liu Shangyuan with a smile.Liu Shangyuan came back to his senses suddenly, this was a signal for him to come!Liu Shangyuan can even be sure that Lin Yan can do more if it is not for taking care of himself.

He nodded and stepped forward.Lin Yan had already taken the first step, and beat everyone with a poke.Now that everyone has not figured it out, it is the best time for him to strike while the iron is hot and attack again.At this time, as long as he can do it, even if the poetry is not very good, no one can reflect it.

They have won in momentum!

Lin Yan called the boss of Zhuangyuan Building over and whispered a few words.Liu Shangyuan has already started.

There are five poems in total, not more than Lin Yan, but higher than Ye He.Both in quantity and quality.Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief, at last he didn't think highly of Liu Shangyuan, nor did he cheat him.Moreover, his poems are plagiarized, thanks to the 5000-year-old cultural heritage of China in his belly.But Liu Shangyuan is really talented and practical.This made him feel ashamed.

The poem is over.Everyone still couldn't recover.

"That's enough, is there anyone who wants to fight on the stage?"

Everyone took a step back involuntarily.Seven steps and seven poems, each capital can be regarded as top grade, who dares to say that there is such a talent?Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do.

It happened that the boss of Zhuangyuan Building came to the stage with a stack of books in his arms.Lin Yan and Liu Shangyuan spread out one by one.

"There are five subjects in Chunwei. Mo Yi, Tie Jing, Jing Yi, Poetry and Fu, and Policy Questions. Now poetry and Fu have been compared. You can't favor one over another. Here are the four books and five classics, and Mo Yi's Tie Jing comes from this. You can feel free Open it and ask questions freely, but if you answer a wrong sentence, I will give him the title of number one scholar!"

Give him the title of No. [-] scholar.

let him...

However, who dares to ask for it?Who can?

"This... this... everyone knows that Lin Zhuangyuan is good at memorizing and reading. Let alone correct sentences, he can know which page, line, and line the word came from. We...we are willing to bow down."

This monster, who can say every word anywhere, how can they compare!Isn't this to build momentum for Lin Yan and make himself look ugly?Who would be so stupid!

Liu Shangyuan smiled, "Yanzhi's talent is well known, so there is no need to compare it. Let me do it!"

Everyone laughed: "Liu Bangyan was joking."

Liu Shangyuan was unmoved, "It's still better than a comparison. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be hard to say in the future."

Everyone looked at each other, at a loss.

Ye He echoed, "It's indeed better than the other!"

Lin Yan got up and stopped him, "Brother Ye, don't worry. There has to be an order, and you will be next. You should take a rest first and prepare well."

Liu Shangyuan understood and straightened his waist without waiting for everyone's reaction.

"People know by nothing, but they know not by words. They also stand by nothing, and they know not by propriety..."

Everyone was stunned, this... What the hell is this memorizing?Why haven't you heard of it?

Lin Yan was drinking tea leisurely, Ye He frowned.In the past, Lin Yan's seven steps and seven poems stole his limelight, and now Liu Shangyuan recites the Analects of Confucius backwards, what method should he use to overwhelm the next player?

Yes!Reverse!It's backwards!From the last word, there is no mistake!

Ye He clenched his fists tightly.He thinks he is very intelligent, but he also knows that Lin Yan, Liu Shangyuan are all geniuses, especially Lin Yan.So he wanted to preemptively kill the two of them by surprise.Although he is a candidate, he can have a reputation higher than the No. [-] pick.But now it seems that it is impossible.And he knew that it was all because of Lin Yan.

It seemed that he was just sitting there, relaxed and relaxed, as if he hadn't done anything, but he had messed up all his plans.

Some people in the audience have come back to their senses.

"This is the Analects of Confucius? The Analects of Confucius memorized backwards."

"Really...really! Liu Bang is the second best talent!"

……

After finishing the essay, Lin Yan poured a cup of tea for Liu Shangyuan.Liu Shangyuan gulped it down and said, "I don't know which book you want me to recite next? "Mencius", "University", "Book of Songs" or..."

What a joke!Except for "University" and "The Doctrine of the Mean", which have fewer words, the others are higher than the Analects, and even "Mencius" and "The Book of Songs" are three times as many as the Analects.This has to be memorized all the time, when will it be the end!

In particular, people who can recite the Analects of Confucius calmly and calmly, and who can easily ask what to recite next, do you think he can't recite it?

"No! No need! Liu Bang is second in the list, I feel ashamed."

"Humbled!"

Seeing this, Liu Shangyuan bowed his hands in salute and gave time to Ye He.However, at this point, Ye He could only answer sentences.Don't say he may not be able to recite backwards.Even if it can, picking up people's teeth and wisdom is also inferior.

Liu Shangyuan smiled lightly and whispered to Lin Yan: "Did you do it on purpose?"

Lin Yan looked innocent, "If I did it on purpose, wouldn't you also cooperate with me?"

Liu Shangyuan tried his best to hold back a smile, and said curiously: "I wanted to ask you a long time ago, you didn't talk much in the Imperial College, why do you seem to have a big hatred."

"Big hatred? I have no hatred with him."

Liu Shangyuan rolled his eyes, "Because of the eldest prince?"

Lin Yan was slightly taken aback, the affair between Ye He and the fifth prince was before the imperial examination, so few people knew about it.But now that the imperial examinations have passed, and the Ye family has made a fortune for a while, it is not as poor as before, and people will notice it.But now, I am afraid that only the First Prince will be found.

Lin Yan concealed his thoughts, "That's right. You know, our family is inseparable from His Highness the Third."

Liu Shangyuan nodded, acquiescing to this explanation.The two calmed down and listened to Ye He's dialogue.Ye He originally wanted to make a blockbuster with his best poems.Didn't intend to pull anything else out.What happened next was beyond his expectations.But with his talent and learning, Mo Yi Tie Jing is not a problem.Lin Yan didn't think that he would make a mistake on this.Otherwise, it is impossible for him to be a flower explorer.

Wait until Ye He finishes answering.Lin Yan took another step forward and said: "Mo Yi, post scriptures, poems and prose have all been compared. Now is it the turn to ask about scriptures, meanings and policies?"

Being pressured again and again, the competition has come to this point, and the southern students who were the loudest before saying that the Guozijian must have a ghost in the top three have been discouraged, so how dare they compete again.

"Since no one is talking, let's talk about justice. What do you think?"

Some people waved their hands again and again, "The way of scriptures and righteousness is incomparable, so there is no need."

To put it bluntly, the scriptures are almost the impression after reading, and there must be materials for topic selection.This is really not a good comparison, and it is not suitable for comparison on this occasion.

Lin Yan nodded, and said directly: "Then ask questions!"

Everyone, you look at me, and I look at you!Everyone is in the same subject, and even those who came to Beijing early to prepare for the exam have heard about it.The three in front of me are still good at strategy, especially Lin Yan.

There are countless rumors about him. When he was young, he was enlightened by the former prime minister and then taught by Mr. Xiyang.He not only has a clear understanding of the ancient and modern affairs of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but also has a deep research on Western things, and his eyesight is really extraordinary.

Not to mention anything else, but many people among them have heard the prelude to the strategy against barbarians on the day of the palace examination.I'm afraid that Liu Bangyan Ye Tanhua on the stage is not as good as Ye Tanhua, let alone them?

Some people couldn't help but took another two steps back. Today they forced people to come to the stage, but they beat them so hard that they couldn't lift their heads. They were really ashamed to see people!

The smile on Lin Yan's face faded away, and he became stern.

"It seems that you don't want to compare! You don't want to compare, but I want to compare! There is no reason why you can compare if you say it, and don't compare if you say no! You think it is a disadvantage for us to occupy the first and third place, and you are not convinced , Now that the competition has begun, it is better to continue! Everything must start well and end well.

In my opinion, there is no need to talk about the exam questions.Just talk about today's events!I would like to ask you all boldly, what is the way of being loyal to the emperor, and what is the way of being a minister! "

"Inciting speeches, fabricating rumors and spreading rumors, the results of the imperial court's review have not yet been released, but the fraud has been heard in the streets and alleys, what is the way of loyalty to the emperor? Gathering crowds to make trouble, fighting with Suzaku in front of the gate, almost blood staining the palace gate, threatening His Majesty, Who is the way of minister?"

Everyone was stunned, as if there was a buzzing sound in their heads, and the ringing continued.

The author has something to say: Lin Yan: Let me borrow your table.

Ye He: You snatched everything first, you even did the hosting, and stole my limelight!Who the hell is this platform!

Liu Shangyuan: I just look at it and don't speak.
