Chapter 173: This poem should only exist in heaven
Wang Ping'an was waiting outside the Eastern Palace, but the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Zhi, danced and was extremely excited!
Last night, someone came to report that Wang Ping'an from Xuzhou has arrived. Since Li Zhi practiced the "Ascendance Art", he felt very good in his body. He punched several times a day and sweated all over his body. He was in good spirits all day, so he really wanted to meet Wang Ping'an.
However, there are rules in the palace in the palace. Except for the emperor summoning his ministers, others cannot order them to open them after the door of the palace. This is to prevent rebellion from appearing in the palace, and open the palace gate to lead the rebels into the palace.
Li Shimin ascended the throne by mutiny, and the former crown prince he appointed himself also rebelled, which made him particularly taboo about such things. Li Zhi was cowardly by nature and did not dare to break this rule, so he didn't see it last night.
He got up early in the morning. It was estimated that Wang Ping'an should have been waiting outside the palace. He was about to summon him, but someone came to report that Yan Liben came to the palace to meet the saint. He did not see the emperor, so he had to go to Chongxian Pavilion. He said that he had obtained a good poem yesterday and wanted to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to appreciate it!
Chongxian Hall, which is the Chongwen Hall in the future, but the Crown Prince Li Xian was not born yet, so there is no need to avoid the taboo "Xian". It was also called the original name Chongxian Hall at this time!
Chongxian Pavilion is in the East Palace, so Li Zhi went there. After meeting Yan Liben, Yan Liben presented a seven-character quatrain. This seven-character quatrain is written so well, so good that it is simply jaw-dropping!
Li Zhi loved poetry and prose very much. Of course, no one in this era loved it. When he saw this seven-character poem, he immediately threw the matter of seeing Wang Ping'an into the sky and completely forgot about it!
"Good poetry, good poetry, good poetry! This is a masterpiece passed down from generation to generation. These seven charades are only available in the sky. When will they fall into the mortal world?" Li Zhi patted the desk and praised loudly.
Yan Liben was in his forties and was an artist. He was in his golden years in his life. He was currently the Minister of Justice. He did a lot of things, but he didn't do much. He had his subordinates to do everything, so he ended up being idle. Like other ministers in the court, as long as he was not on duty, he would live a very casual life, listen to music and dance!
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the atmosphere was very open, especially the young talented men. The thing they liked to do was that a large group of people took the singer to the wilderness and took off their clothes. Everyone was honest and drank and recited poems with their bare butts, which was called "The style of Wei and Jin Dynasties"!
If this kind of thing is in modern times, the police will have to take care of it, which is a bad habit. However, during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, ordinary people could not take off their nakedness in public and had to have a certain degree of talent. Being naked is the privilege of the scholar class, and ordinary people cannot learn from it, otherwise they will be artifice and have the suspicion of imitating others!
Yan Liben did such a thing when he was young, and he never recorded it in history books, but it is a fact that he lingers in the wine shop and dance shop. It is probably because of his lifestyle that he likes to draw characters so much!
Yesterday, the owner of the shopkeeper of the Hesitant Building went crazy and was furious! Is it because Yan Liben's painting was taken into poetry, and was he anxious about the destruction of the painting? No, it was because he couldn't find the person who mentioned poetry, so he was anxious!
The sixth floor of the Juehe Tower is dedicated to entertaining distinguished guests. Wang Ping'an dressed luxuriously and rode a white dragon horse. With this style, he must be a great distinguished guest, so the friend invited him to the sixth floor. This sixth floor is often visited by Yan Liben. The great painter Yan often drank too much and never brought any money on him, so he left a few pictures in the Juehe Tower, which he only used as wine.
Among them, the painting on the wall cannot be painted on paper anymore. Even Yan Liben couldn't draw such a good work after he woke up from the drunkenness. He could only copy it by painters. Therefore, this landscape painting is indeed a lonely book and its value cannot be measured by money.
The owner loved this painting like a treasure, but he was told by his friend that someone had ruined the painting! How could the owner not hurry? He rushed from home to the restaurant like crazy, and vowed to cut the person who destroyed the painting into pieces and chopped it up and fed it to the dog!
But as soon as he came to the painting and read the poem, he became stupid at that time. The guys didn't know the gold and jade. That's because they knew the gold and jade, so they didn't have to be friends, but he knew it!
This poem is so wonderful that it is so wonderful... It’s not that this poem is not worthy of this painting, but that this painting is not worthy of this poem!
The owner asked at the time, what about the person who wrote this poem? The guys told him that he didn't catch it. The man who looked like a young man slipped away very quickly and ran away in the blink of an eye!
The shop owner asked what this person looked like? The guys replied that this person had a deer-shaped head and a mouse-eyed look, and he was obviously not a good thing!
He really can't behave like a person. He looks so vulgar, but he can write such good poems! After sighing, the owner asked him what characteristics he has? The guys said he had no characteristics, but the horse he rode had great characteristics. It was a famous Dayuan horse with pure white all over. Walking on the street, it was very conspicuous!
The owner was very angry when he learned about this. Why didn’t he let him write poems on paper? This person will be famous all over the world in the future. His treasures are hard to come by. Our store specializes in this kind of business. How can you let him go?
It was useless to get angry with the guy. The owner personally copied the poem and went to meet Yan Liben to explain the matter!
When Yan Liben saw this poem, he was in great pleasure and slapped his face and shouted: "Good poetry, good poetry, good poetry! Such good poetry can be passed down from generation to generation. Who wrote it? Where is the poet now?"
The owner couldn't answer, so he had to repeat what the guys said!
Yan Liben sighed: "You should not behave like a person. Although that person is vulgar, he is very literary. Few people in the world can match!" He told the shop owner to pay attention. If this person appears again, he will definitely report to him. He will definitely meet this talented man for a while!
Yan Liben was excited all night, and ran into the palace early the next day to want to present the poem to the emperor, but the emperor was busy. Li Shimin was very interested in talents and had no interest in chanting poetry and painting. Yan Liben newspaper was not a military matter, so he didn't see him and deal with other important matters.
Yan Liben was unable to do so, so he had to come to Chongxian Pavilion and present the poem to the crown prince Li Zhi. Li Zhi was the opposite of his father. He had never been interested in government affairs, but was very interested in poetry, songs and essays, and he liked the most fun!
After taking the seven quatrains presented by Yan Liben, he only read them once, and then slapped the desk of the book and shouted: "Good poems, good poems, good poems!"
Yan Liben was happy. His Royal Highness had a good vision and his reaction was exactly the same as himself! He smiled and said, "Please read this poem, both exaggerated and whimsical. The whole poem is written in a smooth and elegant manner, shocking and beautiful way! I have seen countless talents and read countless poems, but I have never read such a good poem. This is the first masterpiece that makes me sleepless all night!"
Li Zhi looked at the poem with his eyes fixed on his head and nodded, "Yes, I guess I won't be able to sleep tonight! Yan Aiqing, this poem is not just a craft, it will naturally be natural. This poem is definitely written by a human, not a god in the sky? If it is written by a secular person, why don't you see him?"
Yan Liben thought for a while and said, "According to the owner of Juehelou, that man looks dirty, and people always judge people by their appearance. I guess he doesn't want people to see their true colors?"
Li Zhi shook his head and said, "It's outrageous. How can people judge by their appearance? Moreover, this person is so talented, even if he is as beautiful as a ghost, who dares to laugh at him? You must find this person. You must find him. You must recruit him into Chongxian Pavilion and become an orphan bachelor!" After a pause, he said, "You should be the leader of all the bachelors, and you can be called a grand scholar!"
Yan Liben frowned and said, "If this person does not like to be honest, then there will be some twists and turns to find him, and it will be difficult to find!"
Li Zhi nodded and waved his hand, "You think about the way!"
It’s good to be the prince. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have any ideas. As long as someone can make an idea for him, it’s all right. If his father changes, he will immediately give orders and take whatever ideas he wants, but he can only do this!
Yan Liben sighed in his heart, "Poetry is so easy to offer, but it's hard to find people. How should we find them? Send the servants from the Ministry of Justice? You must scare people away! You leave the Chongxian Pavilion and think about finding the poet along the way!
He came in from the main entrance of the palace, but he didn't have to go out. The one who walked near was Chongfu Gate of the East Palace. This palace gate was outside Chongxian Pavilion, very close.
After leaving the palace gate, Yan Liben saw a baby-faced man wearing eunuch uniforms outside the palace gate, walking around, muttering and not knowing what he was saying. Under the shadow of the palace wall, there was a boy wearing civilian uniforms.
I saw the boy constantly wiping sweat with his handkerchief. He seemed to have been waiting outside the palace for a long time. He was dressed properly. Although he was only wearing a green round-necked gown, the real sign was seen in the details. When he saw the look, the outfit was very ordinary, but when he looked closely, the fabric was quite expensive. The boy looked upright, and although he was sweating like a slurry, his expression was peaceful, and even his sweat was very elegant!
Yan Liben had something to do in his mind, so he just took a look and didn't look again. He just thought to himself: "Gorgeously dressed, dirty-looking, riding a white horse..." and slowly left the East Palace.
Wang Ping'an looked up and asked, "Sir Mi, can I go back to the car to drink some water?"
Mi Xiaomiao shook her head and said, "Don't do this. If you drink water, what if you are in a hurry? There is no toilet here for you to go to. Wait a little longer!"
Wang Ping'an sighed and thought to himself: "It's really not easy to meet the prince's face. I don't know if he has something to do, but he hasn't summoned him yet!"
At this moment, an eunuch came out of the palace and shouted far away: "Master Mi, are you always waiting anxiously?"
Mi Xiaomiao hurriedly stepped forward and talked to the eunuch. After a moment, she ran back, pulled Wang Ping'an up, and smiled and said, "The prince is free, call you to Chongxian Pavilion, let's go now!"
Wang Ping'an hurriedly stood up, dressed and followed him into the East Palace. The East Palace was very big, but Wang Ping'an was not in the mood to visit the palace now. He was just thinking about the etiquette after seeing Li Zhi, and was afraid that he would not remember it. He made a joke like Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden.
Chongxian Pavilion is not far from the door, and you will arrive shortly after walking for a while.
Mi Xiaomiao said: "No disease, please wait here for a while. I will go in and report it and say something good to you in front of the prince!" As he said that, he patted Wang Ping'an on the shoulder and entered Chongxian Pavilion with a smile.
There were countless eunuchs and palace maids standing outside the museum. Wang Ping'an could no longer find the shade, so he had to stand in the corridor and wait straight for the summons.
After standing for a while, he saw a eunuch coming out, holding a piece of paper in his hand. After coming out, he called a little eunuch and said solemnly: "Listen, Your Highness loves this poem very much. He quickly takes it out of the carved version, and carved it out of the real cursive script, official script, seal script, and one plate, each seal is divided into large, medium and small fonts. Do you understand?"
The little eunuch hurriedly said, "Save it small!"
The eunuch said again: "Your Highness specially instructed that the running script should be carved according to Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, so that the craftsmen can compare with the "Preface to the Lanting Collection" and must not be careless!"
The little eunuch agreed again, holding the paper in both hands, and trotted away.
Wang Ping'an curled his lips and thought to himself: "Now, poets are still popular. I have to write a poem like this. A doctor came from afar, but I have to wait outside the palace and sweat. It's really a matter of death, and a matter of goods have to be thrown away!"
Chapter completed!
