"Why is it like this …" Emperor Qing was like an injured animal that was rubbing its wounds. His body trembled slightly, and his face was pale as if he had not recovered from a serious illness.
"Your Majesty!"
"Emperor Qing!"
Many of the officials saw this and were anxious. They were afraid that Emperor Qing would be scared out of his wits and reveal his ugly side, becoming the laughingstock of the human race.
However, Emperor Qing gently waved his hand and only lowered his head.
The officials heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that although Emperor Qing was sad, his mind had not collapsed. There would not be any serious consequences for him or Gyeongo.
Emperor Qing was one of the people with the highest status at the Literary Gathering. Many people saw him like this.
Suddenly, someone shouted, "That's not right! If Fang Yun was Zhang Longxiang, why would he write the poem "Viewing the Dongting Lake as a Gift for Emperor Qing"? That's a poem for seeking an official's favor. "
Thus, many people recalled the previous poem. At the table next to Yan Yukong and the others, someone wrote it on the spot.
At the level of the Eight Moons Lake, the void is mixed with the Tai Qing.
The air steams the Dreamy Cloud Lake, the waves shake Yueyang City.
Desiring help without a boat to sail, holding a shameful sage.
Sitting and watching the fisherman, admiring the fish.
"Everyone, I did not remember a single word of this poem wrongly. The first four lines only described the scenery of Dongting Lake without any metaphor. However, the last four lines are different. Desiring help without a boat to sail, does this mean that he wants to enter the court and become an official? Holding a shameful sage, doesn't it flatter Emperor Qing and feel ashamed for not being able to serve Gyeongo? Sitting and watching the fisherman, doesn't it mean that he is looking at the officials of Gyeongo? Admiring the fish, doesn't it mean that he can only envy others for ruling over a region in the Saint Origin Continent? "
"Perhaps this is Fang Yun's way of confusing Emperor Qing."
"Even if it's to confuse Fang Yun, this poem is too humble. Of course, if you look at it from the perspective of a Military Scholar, Miscellaneous Scholar, or School of Vertical and Horizontal Scholar, Fang Xusheng is not wrong. However, if you look at it from our perspective, it's too inappropriate. "
"No, look carefully at the rankings. Below this poem, some people suspect that this poem is satire!" Li Fanming immediately began to help Fang Yun resolve the issue.
"Oh? There are hundreds of thousands of replies to this poem on the rankings. Does that person have any evidence? "
Li Fanming coughed lightly and cleared his throat. He smiled and said, "At that time, some people suspected that Zhang Longxiang was mocking Qing Jun. He focused on the phrase 'shameless and wise'. As you all know, although the word 'Sheng' has multiple meanings, any scholar would pay special attention to it when they use it. That person only said one sentence, and it made it impossible for anyone to refute. Is Gyeongo, under the rule of the Qing Emperor, worthy of being called wise? "
One of them said, "Why can't we refute it? 'Shengming' is something that can be used to praise the Emperor. It's just flattery. "
"No, no, no. At that time, that person thought that Zhang Longxiang's identity was unique. Even if he wanted to ask Gyeongo for an official position, he couldn't really use such lowly words. So, he thought that the word 'wise' was sarcastic."
"If it's sarcasm, it seems to make sense."
Li Fanming smiled and said, "Yes! This poem is' for the Qing Emperor ', and it was written by Fang Yun. Then, the real meaning of the last four sentences should be: The poet wants to show off his skills in the human race, but there are many difficulties in Saint Origin. It's like the oars of a ship being taken away. Under the obstruction of a wise Emperor like the Qing Emperor, he can only do nothing and feel ashamed. Looking at the scholars of the human race bravely killing their enemies, he can only look at them enviously. Whether it's from Zhang Longxiang's or Fang Yun's point of view, this poem can be explained. Actually, there are a few people who agree with this, but Fang Yun didn't say the truth at that time. Most people misunderstood that Zhang Longxiang really wanted to be an official in Gyeongo. "
"I see!"
"Not bad, not bad. Fang Xusheng's poem is said to be for the Qing Emperor, but it's actually a spear thrown at the Qing Emperor. The Qing Emperor lost his composure because he knew that he was being played by this poem. Tsk tsk … "
"In addition to this poem, there's another one called 'Climbing the Yueyang Tower'. This shouldn't be irony."
"Of course, this poem isn't irony. The first four sentences are 'I heard of the Dongting River in the past, and now I'm climbing the Yueyang Tower. Wu, Chu, Southeast, Heaven and Earth float day and night 'and' Viewing the Dongting Lake as a Gift to the Qing Emperor 'are similar. They both describe the scenery and the magnificence of the Dongting Lake. The last four sentences are 'There are no relatives or friends, and the old and sick have a lonely boat. The military pass the mountains north, and the snot flow with the wind. 'It's very simple. This is Fang Yun using Zhang Longxiang's identity to reminisce about himself. As a person from Jingguo, he can only stay in Baling City and stand on the Yueyang Tower, looking at the north. There is a fierce war, but he can only watch from afar. He can't participate in the war and can only cry silently. Now, it seems that the most exquisite part of the last four sentences of this poem is that it perfectly blends the backgrounds of Fang Xusheng and Zhang Longxiang. "
Yan Yukong sighed softly and said, "The military pass the mountains north, and the snot flow with the wind. Only the combination of Fang Yun and Zhang Longxiang can write such a touching poem. When I read this poem, I thought that Zhang Longxiang was too angry. Although he was ambitious, he was too resentful. But now, instead of saying that he was too resentful, it's better to say that he was mocking some people. They forced the human race's Xusheng to guard two prefectures and forced 'Zhang Longxiang' to compete with 'Fang Xusheng'! Ridiculous! Sad! Lamentable! Even more despicable! "
Yan Yukong gritted his teeth as he finished speaking.
After listening to Wanyan Yukong's explanation, everyone was enlightened.
Li Fanming didn't understand the poem at first, but when he heard Wanyan Yukong's words, he felt the emotions contained in the words' ridiculous, sad, lamentable, and despicable '. His eyes instantly turned red.
Li Fanming said angrily, "I see, I see! Be it Fang Xusheng or Zhang Longxiang, they only wanted to rush to the border to kill the enemy. But sadly, they were forced to compete with themselves by the Zong and Lei families and Gyeongo! How laughable was this? Even if the foreign tribes and barbarians heard about this, they would also hold their bellies and laugh! But the human race actually did such a thing. The great Xusheng was actually forced to such a state! "
Yan Yukong's eyes were slightly red as he said in a low voice, "I'm Fang Yun's friend. I didn't realize until today that when he was pretending to be Zhang Longxiang, he suffered so many blows, so many grievances, and so many threats! I even suspect that in order to complete the mission of the Book Hill, he endured humiliation in the literary world and was treated as a traitor. He even became someone's chess piece. In the end, he broke through all kinds of obstacles and finally won the Battle of Bi Can! He used his sword and pen to fight against the barbarians and demons, but his back was injured by the human race's sword and pen! What kind of breadth of mind was this? How sorrowful is this! His figure standing in the Two World Mountain must be more majestic than Mount Tai! "
After Yan Yukong finished speaking, the people present finally understood his sorrow.
A Gyeongo old Han Lin stood up on the spot and roared!
"Who! Stand out! Who threatened Fang Xusheng, who pretended to be Zhang Longxiang? Who! He shouldered the mission of the Book Hill and commanded the human race to fight against the barbarians and demons in the Two World Mountain. He even ended the Battle of Bi Can by himself and achieved a glorious victory that has never been seen before in the history of the human race! Who would force such a meritorious subject? Who! Stand out! Stand out! "
As the old Han Lin spoke, two streams of tears flowed down his face.
"I don't believe that the people of Gyeongo would do such a thing …" The old Han Lin sobbed and found it difficult to continue speaking.
This was the regret of a Gyeongo scholar. He regretted that he had once been hostile to Fang Yun and hated that his country had such a despicable person!
