Chapter 4 Sparks of Fire

As a later generation, Li Yuanai is familiar with this sentence.

As a famous line that often appears in poetry, novels and songs, Li Yuanai does not know where it comes from.

But looking at the poem in my hand, Li Yuanai knew that the source had appeared.

Although I don’t like the silence of my hands, I have to admit that the saying “I wish to be a mandarin duck and not envy the immortal” is so beautiful.

He let go of his prejudice and continued to watch:

I hate the embroidered phoenixes in the tent, and I like to pick up the curtains and put on the two swallows.

The two swallows fly around the painted beams, and the silk curtains are covered with tulips.

The clouds are flying on the cicada's hair, and the delicate moon is yellow on the crow.

The crow yellow pink and white car is revealed, and the expression is different.

The demon child is connected with the iron and the iron and the prostitute is tied with gold.

...

The author of the poem describes the flower world of Chang'an, the noble and luxurious gentry and officials, the narrow and beautiful attitude towards life, and the debauchery of the red lights and lotus tents of Pingkangfang.

Li Yuanai smiled bitterly, no wonder Mr. Wen Yiduo said that the palace style poetry of the Southern Dynasty was not a blank, but a stain. The anemia and deformed palace life gave birth to anemia and deformed poetry, and the two influenced each other, so the entire society was shrouded in a state of confusion.

Everyone has lust in their eyes, and everyone has a ulterior motive in their hearts.

From emperors and ministers to common people, they were all influenced by this style of poetry.

An emperor like Li Shimin is no exception. The first two sentences are obviously very domineering and have the spirit of a hero, but the next few sentences begin to be pretentious again.

The key is that Li Shimin didn't think there was any problem here, and he often showed his own poems.

Li Yuanai felt sad. Although he was extremely literary and not the material for writing poetry, few people could compare to poetry.

If it weren't for Li Shimin's Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he would have really competed with him and criticized his poems without any criticism, rather than applauding him against his will.

"Huh!"

Xu Long suddenly felt a little surprised and showed some doubts.

Li Yuanai continued to read and read:

"There is a luxury to be called a general and minister, and he will not give in to each other when he changes the day and returns to heaven.

The origin of the intention is to drain the husband, and the autocratic judgment cannot be tolerated by Xiao Xiang.

The autocratic spirit is a heroic hero, and the green and purple swallows sit on the spring breeze.

When I said that I had been singing and dancing for thousands of years, I thought I was arrogant and luxurious, and I was so proud that I was so arrogant and overwhelmed by the Five Dukes." I felt ripples in my heart, different, and it began to be different.

Li Yuanai finished reading the last sentence in one breath, and his expression was a little shocked.

This is by no means a palace-style poem that should be preserved. The first part of this poem carries the style of the Southern Dynasties and writes about the extravagance of high-ranking officials and nobles, but a small paragraph in the middle describes the life of the city-farers.

This can be said to be unique in palace style poems, especially at the end, which is completely ironic tone, and is named in a completely ironic tone that the upper class of Chang'an has a different desire for power, which drives civil and military officials to fight against each other.

He also specially followed Guan Fu and Xiao Wangzhi as an example.

In Li Yuanai's opinion, this poem was a powerful roar at the dark poetry world of Liang, Chen, Sui and Tang Dynasties.

This song "Chang'an Ancient Ideas" may not be a masterpiece that has been around forever, but in Li Yuan'ai's eyes, it is full of noble meaning.

This is the Tang poem he wanted to see.

What is my cheap guy writing?

"Quickly, invite him on board!"

Li Yuanai was a little excited and continued to look down.

The poem ends with a self-introduction of the poet Lu Zhaolin's name is Shengzhi, a native of Fanyang County, Youzhou. He was young and read poetry and books. When he was ten years old, he went to Jiangnan to follow Cao Xian, a great literary scholar and a stone expert Wang Yifang. "Sancang", "Er Ya" and classics and history books. Now he is more than twenty years old. He is willing to join the King of Wu and use his meager talent to help his work.

"Lu Zhaolin, Lu Zhaolin!"

Li Yuanai recited the name twice and smiled knowingly. It turned out to be him.

Lu Zhaolin, one of the four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty.

"Have you met the King of Wu!"

Lu Zhaolin is a young young man, but in his early twenties, young and handsome, with a little restrained and restrained, and even a little nervous.

After all, the person in front of him was the most famous prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he also mixed praises and was full of topicality.

To visit him for officialdom is a desire and an impulse deep in his heart.

He felt that Li Yuanai could understand himself, and only Li Yuanai could understand him.

Li Yuanai's expression was a little serious and said, "Lu Zhaolin? You are so brave. You use the poem to satirize the present."

Lu Zhaolin was about to refute, but as soon as he was about to say it, he immediately closed his mouth and agreed.

If it were someone else, he would explain it carefully and say that he wrote about the previous dynasty rather than the present.

However, in front of Li Yuanai, he chose to default.

He bets again, and Li Yuanai can understand himself.

When he thought he was wrong in betting, he heard a cheer in his ears: "It's good to be ironic! This is the real poem. The style of the Southern Dynasty is like shit, and it's stinking."

Lu Zhaolin was almost frightened and couldn't breathe, and said tremblingly: "A few years before his death, he followed his mentor north to Chang'an and went to the Bashui Villa built by the King of Wu with his friends. I was deeply touched when I saw poetry everywhere in the Bashui Villa."

"The poems at Bashui Villa are very different from common poems and essays, giving people a refreshing feeling, which makes the young son feel very moved and inspired. Especially the poem "Drinking on the Lake for the First Sunshine and After the Rain", and the sentence "Autumn water grows together with the same color as the sky". This shocking work that transcends the palace style poetry, made the young son have great enlightenment. It happened that the saint retired and Chu Suiliang, in the temple, eliminated his dissidents, and then he had this insight and made this different palace style poetry."

"Today I took this poem to pay homage, I felt that the King of Wu would definitely understand the late birth."

"I understand, of course I understand!" Li Yuanai stood up and said, "Now the poetry world is almost full of desolate sounds, which makes people disgusting. If you want this kind of courageous style that dares to change, you can get out of the predicament of the poetry world and make Tang poetry shine brightly. If you can make a masterpiece like "Chang'an Ancient Ideas", your literary talent will definitely be extraordinary. You go south with me and will serve as a clerk in my Wuwang Mansion for the time being."

Lu Zhaolin felt that the great master died for his confidant, and his eyes were slightly red, and he said firmly: "I wish to serve Your Highness."

Li Yuanai looked at Lu Zhaolin and had an idea in her heart.

Now is the dimest moment in Tang poetry.

When will this dimness end?

Li Yuanai didn't know much about this, but when he saw Lu Zhaolin changing today, a sense of pride suddenly arose in his heart: Since he didn't know when to change, then change it from his own hands.

Let Li Shimin, who is far away in Chang'an, know that he should not hold the poems about the smell of the Southern Dynasty all day long and embarrassing.

In fact, what Li Yuanai didn't know was that Tang poetry had begun to change, and the initial change was again with Shangguan Yi.

Shangguan Yi changed his palace style poetry and created his own Shangguan style. Although he failed to change the spirit of the Southern Dynasty, he was like a ray of dawn in the darkness.

After Shangguan Yi, the four people lit the sparks, namely the Lu Zhaolin in front of Li Yuanai, Wang Bo, Yang Jiong and Luo Binwang.

This spark of sparks is very weak, but as the old saying goes, sparks can start a prairie fire.

The flame ignited hope and also ignited the three fields of Chen Zi'ang, Liu Xiyi and Zhang Ruoxu. They completely sprinkled the fire in all directions.

Then bang!

Decades later, it exploded in the hands of Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Wei, Gao Shi, Wang Changling, Cen Shen and others.

Tang poetry also became the cultural crystallization that has been passed down for thousands of years from Li Yuanai's mouth.

What Li Yuanai didn't know even more was that in order to make the name of Bashui Villa, he used Su Shi's "Drinking the First Sunshine on the Lake" as a heart-warming agent, and attacked Shangguan Yi and Lu Zhaolin, who led the reform of Tang poetry, so that they could abandon the palace-style poems without any bright colors earlier, and began to seek change and excellence, learn from "Drinking the First Sunshine on the Lake" and learn from experience.

"Shangguan Yi is on the boat behind. Go and say hello to him. I believe you can get a good deal."

Li Yuanai didn't want Lu Zhaolin to stay on his boat as a candlestick and sent him out.

Looking at Lu Zhaolin bowing and saying goodbye, Li Yuanai was also a little passionate in his heart. He might not be able to write poetry, but those who know how to write poetry tie them together to make them seek change and excellence, and are they afraid that Tang poetry will not enter the prosperous era ahead of schedule?

"That's it!"

Li Yuanai made a decision.

Xu Long looked at her husband in amazement.

Li Yuanai said: "In the future, we will recruit more people like Lu Zhaolin to the shogunate, regardless of whether they have the ability to govern the world or not. If you have literary talent, you will not be as good as eating. If you don't ask for anything else, just pay a poem every month or weekly. If you don't pay it on time, your salary will be deducted."

Xu Long suddenly felt that his husband was a bit like a devil. Forget it, it would be better not to let him know that he could write poetry too.

Two hours passed in a flash.

The Tang navy had already crossed the Yangtze River, and all kinds of blocked ships began to pass through the orderly manner.

Due to the leak of Li Yuanai's identity, most ships chose to let them pass.

We arrived at Yangzhou Pier soon.

Because of the blockage, the news that King Li Yuanai of Wu was about to arrive at the Yangzhou Wharf had spread.

The Yangzhou officials who were originally welcoming the Jinghu Navy became the ones who welcoming Li Yuanai.

The Chief of Yangzhou personally boarded the ship to invite Li Yuanai to Yangzhou for a banquet.

Li Yuanai asked: "Are General Ancient God Sword and General Wang Wendu listed?"

The chief of Yangzhou said: "Everyone is in the list."

Li Yuanai knew that this banquet was set up to welcome the ancient gods, and that his whereabouts had not been informed of Yangzhou Government. How could they prepare in advance?

"Forget it!" Li Yuanai said directly without hesitation: "The Lone King goes to Jiangnan and bears a heavy burden. I won't go to the banquet, so as not to be too restricted. Go and call Lou Shide, and as soon as he gets on the boat, start the boat immediately."

Lou Shide served as a county magistrate in Jiangdu and worked in Yangzhou. Naturally, he didn't have to go to Luoyang to meet them, just take them along the way.

Lou Shide was waiting at the pier, but when he saw that Li Yuanai had not made an appointment, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, tidied up his clothes, touched his fat belly, and boarded the boat to meet him.

"Lou Shide has met King Wu!"

Li Yuanai looked at the big fat man with a big round ear in front of him, with a short and obese face. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this famous historical minister would look like this.
