The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1661 The Birth of Yueyang Tower

Many officials on the city wall looked at Nie Changju unhappily, but Fang Yun was calm and smiling.

Fang Shouye, who was very familiar with Fang Yun, stared at Fang Yun and did not speak for a long time.

Chen Xibi, who was standing by, asked in a low voice: "Old Fang, what do you think Fang Xusheng meant by this? Why do I feel that his reaction is too soft, which is not like his recent style. Even the head of the Lei family was killed, why would he swallow his anger about this matter?"

Fang Shouye touched his chin and said after a long while: "It's hard to say, it's a bit like Taigong sitting on the fishing platform, waiting for those who are willing to take the bait, waiting for August 15th, maybe this year's Mid-Autumn Festival will be a grand event as grand as the Kongcheng Mid-Autumn Festival that year."

"Will there be a "When Will the Moon Be There" How can you make poems that spread all over the world?"

"Who can say for sure? Maybe it will go a step further and shock the emperor."

Everyone sat down one after another. Dong Wencong glanced at Nie Changju and others with displeasure, then smiled and said, "The most important moment of the new literary meeting has finally arrived. Now, please ask Fang Xusheng to write a poem on the Lu Su Military Review Tower to end this new literary meeting. Next, no matter what Fang Xusheng writes, I will read it with my tongue and spread it throughout the city."

Everyone looked at Fang Yun together. There was silence on the city wall, only the sound of Fang Yun grinding ink.

After a while, Fang Yun picked up the pen and wrote on the top of the white paper.

Climbing Yueyang Tower.

Dong Wencong on the side said with his tongue: "Fang Xusheng's poem is called "Climbing Yueyang Tower." "

Baling Prefecture has many nicknames. Because many places in Baling Prefecture are located in the south of Tianyue Mountain, the south of the mountain and the north of the water are yang, so Baling Prefecture is also called Yueyang, which means the land south of Tianyue Mountain.

Some people also call the Yuejun Tower Yueyang Tower, but this name is not widely circulated.

Many Xiangzhou people immediately thought, could it be that Fang Xusheng wanted to change the Yuejun Tower to Yueyang Tower?

Then, Fang Yun continued to write.

The tower overlooks the end of Yueyang, and the river is wide and Dongting Lake is open.

The geese take away the sorrow, and the mountains bring the beautiful moon.

The clouds are connected to the bed, and the sky receives the cup.

After getting drunk, the cool breeze blows, blowing people back with dancing sleeves.

Fang Yun wrote, and Dong Wencong's tongue burst into spring thunder.

Whether it is the scholars on the city wall or the people of Baling City in the city, they are all attracted by this poem.

Standing on the city tower, it seems that you can see the scenery of Yueyang area, the mountains and rivers are far away, the Dongting Lake is vast, and the peaks seem to bite the moon and send it to you. Under such a beautiful scenery, even if you see the autumn geese flying south, you will not be sad, but the sadness in your heart will be taken away by the autumn geese.

This Yueyang Tower is so high that the seats on the city wall seem to be among the clouds, and the guests seem to pass the cups and drink in the sky. After drinking to one's heart's content, the cool autumn breeze blew, blowing up the sleeves and dancing gently, as if sending the guests home.

"Wonderful!" Dong Wencong couldn't help but praise loudly after reading the whole poem.

"There are poems about Yueyang Tower, some call it magnificent, some call it majestic, and some call it exquisite. But this poem makes Yueyang Tower more beautiful and majestic than ever before."

"The word 'all' in this poem fully describes the height and location of Yueyang Tower, and the following sentences are like a painting, allowing people to see the beauty of Yueyang Tower. As for 'staying in the clouds, drinking in the sky', it can be called the finishing touch. Countless poets have tried to write about the height and beauty of Yueyang Tower, but none of them can be compared with this poem."

"Talking in the clouds, drinking in the sky, such a beautiful thing, even the Yellow Crane Tower is far better than Such as! "

"Some people said that the Yuejun Tower was changed to Yueyang Tower. I think it was just named after the region, which is too vulgar. But after reading this poem, I suddenly realized that Fang Xusheng's "Yueyang Tower" is not the tower of Yueyang, but the tower that overlooks Yueyang! Although the names are the same, the meanings are very different. "

"This poem looks at the world, sees the beautiful scenery and forgets the worries, is heroic and open-minded, this is the mind that a scholar should have. Look at the poems of those young scholars in front, in order to match the autumn scenery and autumn wind, all of them are sad and miserable. Compared with this poem, it is like a crying child!" A general said loudly.

The young scholar who wrote the poem before blushed.

"Good! Attending the new literary meeting, climbing Yueyang Tower, watching the beautiful scenery, enjoying delicious food, drinking fine wine, it should be worry-free! Among the poems on the Yuejun Tower, this one is the first!"

So, many officials took out their official seals, and they all emitted light to cover "Climbing Yueyang Tower".

The orange talent floated on the paper, more than three feet and five inches.

"Mingzhou's poems may be able to protect the country!"

"It is the most worthy poem on the Yuejun Tower!"

"From today on, this place will probably be renamed Yueyang Tower!"

Many scholars nodded gently.

Dong Wencong immediately smiled and said, "Governor, since you call this place Yueyang Tower, please write it with your holy pen and name it "Yueyang Tower". It will be hung on the main gate tomorrow."

Fang Yun nodded gently.

Old university scholar Wei Dongshan smiled and said, "Good! Good! Good! Yuejun Tower is named Yueyang Tower, which is the basis for competing with Yellow Crane Tower! When Fang Xusheng comes to Yueyang Tower again in the future, he will surely let the name of Yueyang Tower be passed down for thousands of years!"

Everyone commented and praised.

This poem appeared on the list of university scholars and soon caused heated discussions on the discussion list.

At first, the heated discussions were only about Yueyang Tower, Fang Yun or Yellow Crane Tower and other related things, but later, it evolved into a dispute between Fang Yun and Zhang Longxiang again.

Some people shouted that Fang Yun was as timid as a mouse. He could have invited Zhang Longxiang to compete in the Mid-Autumn Festival Literature Competition, but he didn't dare to make a decision. He was simply afraid of Zhang Longxiang, which was embarrassing for the people of Shengyuan Continent.

Those who opposed asked Zhang Longxiang to stand up and stop hiding in the literary world like a turtle. If he had the ability, he should wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival Literature Competition to go to Yueyang Tower in Xiangzhou.

The new literary meeting ended smoothly, Fang Yun returned to the governor's office to rest, and continued to study as usual, sleeping for only two quarters of an hour in the early morning before getting up.

Fang Yun had dinner with Dong Wencong's family. Except for Dong Wencong himself who was calm as usual, the Dong family was extremely excited.

After breakfast, Fang Yun and Dong Wencong discussed in the study how to govern Xiangzhou and where to start first.

Before noon, Dong Wencong suddenly received an urgent letter. After apologizing to Fang Yun, he immediately received the letter. After reading it, his face looked a little ugly.

Fang Yun looked at Dong Wencong without saying a word.

Dong Wencong coughed lightly, stood up from his chair, and said hurriedly: "I have failed to govern Xiangzhou well, and I hope the governor will punish me."

"Oh? What's the matter? Even if someone pretended to be the Fuxing Society and caused such a big trouble, you didn't care."

Dong Wencong looked embarrassed, and then said honestly: "Just a quarter of an hour ago, thousands of Baling people were instigated to take to the streets to stop the construction of a new papermaking workshop outside the city."

"Papermaking workshop?" Fang Yun thought for a moment and blurted out, "The largest paper supplier in Xiangzhou was originally Qing Jiang Commercial Bank? You must have known the details, tell me now. "

Dong Wencong showed admiration and said: "The Governor has spoken the truth. In fact, before the new papermaking workshop was built, someone from Xiangzhou and Qingguo sent a message to the prefect of Baling and me, asking us to stop the new workshop. However... this new papermaking workshop was built by the Zhang Heng family, and the workshop belongs to the Zhao's Commercial Bank. How dare I stop it. "

Fang Yun nodded. The Zhao's Commercial Bank is one of the several commercial banks of the Jingguo royal family, and many people in Jingguo know about it.
