Many people at the Scholarly Meeting silently watched this scene. Almost everyone understood that the Scholarly Meeting this time was aimed at Zhang Longxiang.
Whether it was Marquis Lumen or Gou Bao, their positions were very high and they could not bicker with Fang Yun in public. But the Guangzhou prefectural magistrate was different. His position was lower than Zhang Longxiang, and his official position was also lower than Zhang Longxiang. No matter what he said, no one would feel that he was trying to suppress Zhang Longxiang.
Fang Yun looked at the Guangzhou prefectural magistrate and understood the strategy of these people. From the beginning, the Guangzhou prefectural magistrate was trying to infuriate him and make him speak. After all, Zhang Longxiang had done some ridiculous things in the past, and a few days ago, he smashed the Qishan Marquis residence and almost killed Gou Bao's son. These people did not need to completely defeat him. They only needed to find a mistake and then exaggerate it. Together with the accusation of being a traitor, they would have a reason to make Gou Bao or Marquis Lumen take action and take back the banner of the Qishan Army, causing his reputation to be tarnished.
"Unfortunately, I am not that Zhang Longxiang …"
Fang Yun thought to himself and smiled. "Prefectural magistrate, I think you should not make things difficult for this young man. Read the next poem."
The Guangzhou prefectural magistrate smiled. "Marquis, you have not answered my previous question. For this gathering, I am the host. You cannot use the title of Marquis of Zhujiang to suppress me. Let me ask you again. Do you think this poem can become the champion of this gathering? "
Fang Yun's finger lightly tapped on the table. "Since the prefectural magistrate is so aggressive, then this marquis will speak frankly. As a scholar, one needs to have many abilities. The ability to read, memorize, understand, extend, create and so on. At the same time, one should have the ability to judge. How can one judge? After writing a poem or essay, one would know the standard of the essay before it was evaluated by others. One would know who would like it and who would not like it. This was only a lower level of judgment. An even higher level of judgment would be to judge whether one had the ability to write a poem or essay, and to what standard one could write it to before writing a poem or essay. Master Top Scorer, do you understand? "
Fang Yun turned to look at the Guang Continent's Top Scorer.
The young man quickly stood up and bowed to Fang Yun, "Thank you for your guidance, Mister Longxiang. This student has vaguely understood a lot."
Fang Yun nodded and said, "Judgement. Not only can one judge one's own poems and essays, but it should also be able to judge the standards and other abilities of others. The prefectural magistrate's mind was full of twists and turns. His seven orifices were exquisite, but this Marquis was different. He dared to speak frankly about poetry. This Marquis has his own ability to judge. This strange poem is not bad, but it will definitely not become the winner of this banquet. However, Little Top Scorer, don't be discouraged. I shall write a poem to encourage you. "
The young Top Scorer's face was full of joy as he bowed, "This student is all ears."
Zhang Longxiang looked towards the north, his eyes filled with disappointment. He slowly said, "During the ten years in prison, this Marquis often thought back to the past. Those originally blurry memories would often surface, making this Marquis feel as though he had returned to the past. Looking at the young talents in front of me, this Marquis could not help but recall the time when I was stationed by the Yangtze River. This Marquis has chosen the scene of that year to present to my young friend today. "
Fang Yun paused for a long time before reciting the poem.
"The white sun shines on the mountains, the Yellow River flows into the sea …"
Hearing the first two sentences, most people felt that the sentences were ordinary. However, there were a few people who were proficient in poetry who were either paying full attention or nodding their heads lightly. These two sentences were indeed straightforward and smooth. At first glance, there was nothing exquisite about it, but it had a good momentum. The meaning was also very simple. It was nothing more than the sun setting slowly against the mountains, the turbulent Yellow River flowing continuously towards the sea.
However, these few words almost completely encompassed the scene of the setting sun in the Yellow River region.
This scene was obtained from a single person, but it was thousands of miles away. It was taken from a single moment, but it lasted for hundreds of generations.
The famous poets present all sighed inwardly. Just based on these two points, this person was already close to the Prefectural Realm and was approaching the Mingzhou Realm.
They became even more serious and listened carefully to the following sentences.
However, Xun Tianling's gaze moved. He thought to himself that once these words were written, the momentum of the scene would be exhausted. If he continued to write the scene, he was afraid that he would not be able to continue.
"… Desiring a thousand miles of vision, ascending to a higher level!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the famous poets present changed. Marquis Lumen, Gou Bao, and Xun Tianling were all moved.
Xun Tianling happily said, "Within a few words, there is a general momentum, within a short distance, one can talk about thousands of miles, wonderful! The scenery in the momentum, the momentum increases the scenery of thousands of miles, even more wonderful! "
Hearing Xun Tianling's praise, many people were suddenly enlightened. Only now did they understand the subtlety of the first two sentences of this poem. It was in the meaning, not in the words.
An old Grand Scholar then said, "Everyone, there is a big difference between reading the first two sentences and reading the entire poem. 'The white sun at the end of the mountain, the Yellow River flows into the sea' is what the poet is looking at from the original floor. But next, the poet is going to ascend to a higher level, one can see thousands of miles of vision. How vast of a scene would that be? "
The scholars present were immediately attracted by the old Grand Scholar's words. They could not help but imagine what they would see if they could ascend to a higher level.
Many people were itching in their hearts, as if a hundred claws were scratching their hearts. They wished that Fang Yun could use a poem to describe it, but they were very clear that this poem was over.
"Another wonderful thing about this poem is that it is as beautiful as a painting."
"This poem has a vision of dividing time and space. The first two sentences are scenery, but the last two sentences make people feel as if they have traveled through time to see the magnificent scenery at a higher level."
"There is another wonderful thing about this poem, which is that the four sentences are in pairs! 'The white sun at the end of the mountain' versus' The Yellow River flows into the sea ',' desiring a thousand miles of vision 'versus' ascending to a higher level ', very neat. "
"This poem can be said to be the model of the Five Unparalleled Poems. The rhythm is excellent and it is easy to read."
"It's a pity that this is the Poetry Meet. If it were any other meet, the winner would have already been decided!"
"If nothing goes wrong, this poem will definitely reach the top of the Imperial College Meet!"
"Doesn't this mean that next month's edition of the Holy Path will publish many poems by the Marquis of Zhujiang?"
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! "
The gathering was in full swing. The prefect of Guangzhou wanted to stop them, but after thinking for a while, he kept his mouth shut.
Fang Yun smiled at the young Top Scorer and asked, "Do you understand this poem?"
The young Top Scorer bowed once again and said respectfully, "I can only understand a little."
"Feel free to speak."
"You are warning your students that we should not be blinded by everything in front of us. No matter how beautiful it is, how magnificent it is, it is only temporary. Only by practicing hard and reaching a higher level will we be able to see more beautiful scenery. Similarly, if the scenery in front of us is not good enough, we should not be discouraged. We should continue to practice and reach a higher level. Then we will be able to see more of the world. "
Fang Yun revealed a look of astonishment. His eyes revealed a look of admiration as he said, "Good. You are able to see the opposite. You did not disappoint the poem I gave you."
Many of the High Scholars and Elementary Scholars nodded their heads. Many of them were not convinced by this new Top Scorer. But now that he was able to deduce many things in such a short period of time, he was indeed a Top Scorer.
