……
In short, Jing Wangfu Drunken White Poetry Meeting grade do not know dump Yu Wangfu pergola poetry meeting a few streets, the banquet on the wine and food.
From the number of beggars outside the two royal residences, you can get a glimpse of the fact.
Outside the Yu Wang Mansion there was a beggar who was cowering in a corner, with a face of happiness and intoxication, inhaling his nose Avray, and with the aroma of wine and meat coming from inside the Yu Wang Mansion, he put the mouldy nest in his hand into his mouth and chewed it, inhaling Avray and eating a mouthful of it, it was called a sweet aroma.
“Hey, two dogs, you stupid still here to do what, Shunzi, TieDan they all went over, you did not see ah. King’s Mansion over there is even more fragrant, that flavour is so fragrant that you simply want to swallow your tongue into your stomach. Quickly, quickly with me, I help you occupy a good position downwind, go late will be gone.”Far away and ran to a small beggar, not without saying pulling the corner of the beggar to go, the corner of the beggar heard, hurriedly followed all the way trotting.
Two small beggars ran all the way to the side wall of King Jing’s Palace, not far from the corner crowded with more than ten small beggars, while for a downwind position to grab into a mess, while a big mouth deep inhalation of the air comes from the smell of wine and meat ……
Vermilion door wine and meat stinks, beggar outside a drunkenness, huh, this is also considered to be with the people.
At this time, King Jing’s House drunken white poetry will have passed **, close to the end of the vegetarian paper loaded with poems, dancers dance, singers chanting poetry.
King Jing was sitting on the main seat with the two sides of the ministers, ministers and readers talking and laughing, their table placed two stacks of poems and songs.
The pile of poems on the left were the poems made by the people of King Jing’s mansion, while the pile on the right, if King Yu and the others were here, they would realise that the pile on the right were the poems that they had just made at the pergola poetry session.
“Your Highness, someone over there has made another one.”
A chamberlain jogged over and sent an ink-stained poem to King Yu’s table with both hands.
“Hm, go down.”
King Yu nodded, picked up the poem and waved his hand at the chamberlain, signalling that he could retire.
This scene, from the side, can also see how much of an advantage King Jing has over King Yu, the new work of poetry at King Yu’s mansion had just been made, and King Jing’s side got a facsimile; so how many secrets does King Yu’s mansion still have for King Jing?! ……According to Sun Tzu’s “Knowing the enemy and knowing yourself, you will not be in danger in a hundred battles”, the battle for the first wife is currently in King Jing’s favour.
After Yu Wang finished reading the poem, he slightly pulled the corner of his mouth downwards, and then passed the poem to Qian Dongyang, the scholar-in-waiting at the side.
“Oh, His Highness King Yu’s poetry will even be the title of the chopsticks, really not very nutritious, laughable, passed the poem is not very good to the ear, but also Yin Shidan’s ‘Chanting Chopsticks’ can be read, but there is also a lack of Chen Lingqi, oh yes, Zhang Juzheng’s ‘Bamboo Chopsticks Chanting’ is also considered to be a readable, but Zhang Juzheng is not the House of the King Yu’s people, except for the two of these works are mediocre, as to the ‘Ode to the Chopsticks’, is even more sickly “.The more sickly moaning ……”Qian Dongyang read the incoming poems, can not help but laughingly shook his head, snorted a laugh, and then the new incoming “Ode to the Bamboo” poems passed to the newly entered into the House of Bachelor Xu Pu.
After Xu Pu read it, he shook his head with a slight smile, without the intention of commenting on it, and then passed the poem on down the line.
After the poems were passed around the crowd, then returned to the King Jing and the two sides of the service readers, the service lecturers on the right side of the table in the middle of the pile.
“Oh, to say ah, or our this poetry will have meaning, chanting the past and discussing the present, for my great Ming to conquer the world to offer advice and suggestions …….We are scholars, not cooks, chanting and writing about bamboo chopsticks, and what is the significance of my Ming?”King King’s Palace official Li Dongtang laughed, compared the two King’s Palace poetry will be the main theme, vigorously praised the King’s Palace poetry will be, at the same time ruthlessly dissed the Yu King’s Palace poetry will be.
“Well nah, Lord Li has a point.”
“We second the motion.”
Poetry will crowd have to agree, Yu Wang Fu side of the poems he also read, just like Qian Dongyang said, also Yin Shidan and Zhang Juzheng’s two can look past, the other poems are what well.
