Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 221 The Fisherman
Hearing that Fang Jun called himself "Little Du", Du He was very dissatisfied and wanted to refute, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, he was stuck immediately, not knowing what to do.

Each of Fang Jun's poems is an excellent work, which is already recognized.

But what's painful is that every poem of this guy has connotations.

he cursed...

Think of "The Charcoal Seller", think of "Wang Jiangyue", think of "Quiet Night Thoughts"...

Du He was a little guilty, and said: "This..." Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said: "His Royal Highness condescends to send you condolences and rewards, and it is not an exaggeration to write a song to add interest to the occasion. Bar?"

Do you dare to write another poem to scold His Highness the Crown Prince?

Li Chengqian also heard about Fang Jun's habit of swearing at people when he wrote poems, and he broke out in sweat immediately, and gave Du He a bitter look, extremely displeased with his mischief.

Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Fang Jun was quite proud. Can Brother also become a great writer who uses pens as knives?

After thinking for a while, he said, "That's it, Your Highness, Fang will send you a poem."

Li Chengqian was taken aback. He didn't want to be scolded by a poem like his brother Li Tai and dare not go out. Besides, his "bad deeds" are no less than Li Tai. Come up with a word, can you still live?

Just as he was about to politely decline, Fang Jun looked at the flowing stream and chanted, "The waves mean thousands of miles of snow, and the peach blossoms are like a spring without words. A pot of wine, a pole of money, how many people are there?"

……

Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment.

The water in the stream is tumbling and foaming, looking like snow; the peach groves on the bank are colorful, and the peaches are burning like fire; a pot of turbid wine, a fishing rod, cool breeze and flowing water, happy and happy...

It is not only a beautiful picture scroll, but also a state of detachment.

Li Chengqian could only smile wryly.

Since he was born, accompanied by rich clothing, fine food, and noble world, he has taken on the important task of inheriting the foundation of Yanqing and Maolong.

He also worked hard to study and comprehend, trying to achieve the standard of a perfect prince in the eyes of his father.

However, it is too difficult...

He must suppress his nature, follow the rules, and dare not be negligent, otherwise he will be mercilessly accused and impeached by the civil servants and censors; The emperor's disappointed eyes...

Not only that, but I don't know when, those younger brothers have become more and more excellent, and none of them is worse than him in poetry, song, prose, and martial arts!

And his father's increasingly ambiguous attitude made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles, almost collapsed!
He can't hand over the crown prince position to others, because he understands that if his talented and intelligent younger brother Li Tai comes to power, he will be eliminated soon!
Who would keep a person who has been a prince for more than ten years by his side?
Therefore, Li Chengqian was afraid!
He has no way to retreat, so he can only bite the bullet and rush forward!
However, the front is still full of fog and confusion...

Du He clicked his lips, tasted it, and was a little unconvinced.

It’s fine if you quote the scriptures with gorgeous words, but it’s just some ordinary words and sentences, which can be said to be as plain as water, and when you put them together, you will immediately have a relaxed mood and make people get goosebumps all over?
What the hell!

Li Chengqian was in a daze.

Food and wine in front of him, surrounded by picturesque scenery, but it is not reconciled to food.

After a while, he let out a long sigh and said, "It's really a good word, but I have a lonely heart, and I can't let go of everything around me. I want to be a happy fisherman."

Fang Jun smiled and said, "Your Highness thinks that this humble official is urging you to let go of everything and go back to the mountains?"

Li Chengqian said in astonishment: "Isn't it?"

There are waves, peach blossoms, wine pots, and fishing rods. Isn't it just to let go of all troubles and be a happy fisherman?
The old god Fang Jun was there, took a sip of the wine, exhaled, and chanted again: "A spring breeze, a leaf boat, a cocoon thread, and a light hook. The lake is full of flowers, the wine is full of wine, and you can be free in the waves... How does this one compare to the one just now?"

The same rhythm, the same artistic conception, just open your mouth...

Li Chengqian didn't think that Fang Jun had prepared his speech early and waited for him to come to the door, and then he would show off.This person is really eloquent, really talented... Uh, according to this guy's "self-effacing" rhetoric, it is seven and a half...

But after Li Chengqian tasted it, after thinking about it carefully, it still means the meaning of the song just now, isn't it just a description of giving up common things and being in the rivers and lakes, happy and happy?
Seeing that he still didn't understand, Fang Jun sighed slightly, and said with a little disappointment: "Your Highness, you have already entered the nest..."

Du He was very displeased with Fang Jun talking about playing Zhuge Liang, and said with a sneer, "Don't be so pretentious, can you explain these two words to other meanings?"

Fang Jun reached for the wine glass, Du He was guarding him, and jumped far away...

Fang Jun looked at Du He contemptuously, and twitched his mouth: "Coward!"

Du He blushed.

However, Li Chengqian ignored the nonsense of the two, and said seriously: "I would like to hear the details."

Fang Jun sighed, and said: "Your Highness believes that the fisherman lives in the green mountains and green waters for many years and looks free, so in the eyes of the world, he is a model of chic and refined, and the standard of a hermit, right? "

Li Chengqian said in a daze: "Isn't it?"

Fang Jun said: "Unfortunately, the fisherman in this poem is difficult to exist in reality. Rich people have their own careers, and they have no time to enjoy such a freehand life. They also want to rest. "Stealing half a day's leisure" can't get rid of secular disputes and pressures; and real fishermen, they have heavy taxes and miscellaneous taxes, fishing is their labor, and they have to work hard in exchange for food, clothes, and a wife The cost of raising children, besides, one person feels very leisurely fishing once in a while, but if it is regarded as a lifelong job, can you still find this job enjoyable? Even if the local scenery is picturesque, you will feel fatigued if you look at it every day. of."

Li Chengqian and Du He thought about it carefully, and it really made sense.

Occasionally fishing once in a while is cultivating sentiment and getting close to nature, but if fishing for a lifetime...

Thinking about it makes people shudder.

But what does Fang Jun mean?
Seeing that the two of them still didn't understand, Fang Jun didn't laugh at him.

He remembered the two words that his old boss read when he was annoyed by losing his promotion, and he didn't know the meaning for a long time.

"Actually, the real meaning of the two words of Weichen is to tell His Highness a truth. People can't always be dissatisfied, and they can't always envy other people's goodness... Just like a fisherman, in our opinion, It is as happy as how many people I have, and it is the freedom of the vast expanse of blue waves. But in fact? He still has to be forced by life. Conversely, will the fisherman envy our life?"

Will it?
The answer is certainly yes.

Who doesn't envy rich clothes, fine food, and groups of wives and concubines?

Li Chengqian was at a loss and didn't understand what it meant.

Fang Jun said patiently: "His Royal Highness always thinks that he is very bitter and depressed. His brother covets your position. His Majesty is disappointed in you, and the courtiers are harsh on you...Is it not?"

Li Chengqian was a little unnatural and kept silent.

This is the default.

Fang Jun nodded: "But Your Highness, have you ever thought about why they treat you like this?"

why?
Li Chengqian gritted his teeth: "Because someone was restless and wanted to pull Gu down, and he himself became the prince; because the father always set his standards on Gu, but Gu's qualifications are not as good as the father's; because those The minister either wants to shape Gu into an eternal sage, or he is trying to make wind and rain, as the capital of his own fortune..."

It can be said that Li Chengqian has never confided his heart in front of others like this.

He has been suppressed for too long and under too much pressure. His nerves are like a bowstring that has been taut all year round, and he dare not slack off in the slightest.

But today, for some reason, he vented his innermost thoughts without hesitation.

He also wants to be recognized, and even more sympathetic!

Your Highness, it is actually very bitter!
However, there was no trace of sympathy on Fang Jun's face, there was only endless ridicule...

Li Chengqian was furious, and said: "Fang Jun! Are you really playing with Gu?"

Fang Jun shook his head. He finally understood why Li Chengqian, who was so good when he was a child, would do so many unbelievable brain-dead things when he became an adult.

Not from pressure, not from being framed, but from mentality.

He hadn't found his place at all!
Fang Jun said leisurely: "Have you heard this sentence, Your Highness: If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight?"

Li Chengqian was at a loss, which sage said this?

What do you mean?
I have only heard of the crown, the emperor's crown, what is this crown?

Crown Prince?Have not heard……
