Chapter 73 Tanka Line (2/4)
Cao Chong patted the dust on his trouser legs, his face calm, but his head had already thought about the poems he wanted to write.
"The White Horse Chapter" is indeed Cao Zhi's best work in his early years. Among all Cao Zhi's works, the only ones that can be compared with him are "Seven-Step Poems" and "The Goddess of Luo River".
Logically speaking, the Goddess of Luo River was Cao Zhi's pinnacle work, so it would be enough to copy the Goddess of Luo River by himself, but Cao Chong could only sigh in his heart.
First, the theme of the Goddess of Luo River is the myth of immortals and heroes, which has no relationship with Nanzheng, so it cannot do so.
Second, even if the poem "The Goddess of Luo" was written on the Southern Expedition, Cao Chong wouldn't remember it.
As graceful as a stunning geese, as graceful as a dragon. The glorious autumn chrysanthemums and the lush spring pine...
The Goddess of Luo River is so difficult, and it is not necessary to memorize literary fu in the college entrance examination. Cao Chong could only sigh!
Then, I can only choose something else!
Short songs!
It is naturally risky to choose a short song. According to the historical trajectory, in November this year, Cao Cao will write poems on the Red Cliff. Who knows if Cao Cao has any drafts?
Huh~
Cao Chong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but even if he had a draft, it would be fine. Cao Chong had already thought of several strategies in his mind.
"That is my father's request, what's wrong with Cang Shu writing a essay?"
Cao Cao's eyes lit up and he waved his hand. The entourage officer quickly put the new bamboo slips on it, while Cao Chong started first.
In the middle of the hall, Cao Chong looked around the guests and picked up the pen in his hand!
Yang Xiu looked at Cao Chong, who was full of confidence, and for some reason, he felt endless worries, and Cao Zhi began to sweat.
But he is still confident!
I spent dozens of days to create this "White Horse Chapter". I don't believe that you can make a "White Horse Chapter" that surpasses me in just a quarter of an hour?
Cao Chong's pen stayed in the air for a long time, and some people began to whisper in the field, and more people sneered.
hehe……
Your true face is revealed, Mr. Cao Qi!
Xinpi felt the gaze like a needle behind her back, and she felt a little panicked.
Son-in-law, you can’t cheat your father-in-law!
Just as everyone was almost losing patience, Cao Chong shouted loudly!
"This fu is called "Short Songs"!"
Short songs?
Cao Zhi's heart tightened and his hands began to tremble. At this time, Yang Xiu, who was beside him, came over and grabbed Cao Zhi's hand tightly with his eyes firm.
"Young Master, don't panic. Xiu doesn't think that the seventh Master can write a great scholar in a short time!"
Hearing Yang Xiu's consolation, Cao Zhi felt a little better, his eyes gathered again, and he was full of confidence.
"Short Song Xing" is the name of a tune in the Han Yuefu, and is a lyric used for banquet occasions.
When Cao Chong said the three words "Singing Song", he couldn't help but aroused everyone's curiosity!
After a few strokes, I smiled half a smile on my lips!
After a moment, Cao Chong leaned on his horse and was ready to write a essay in an instant.
"Please read the Prime Minister!"
Cao Chong put the bamboo slips on his head and shouted loudly.
Seeing Cao Chong so confident, Yang Xiu was also confused. Could it be that this Qi Master Cao really wrote a better literary fu than "White Horse Chapter"?
Cao Cao waved to the attendant beside him, and the latter took the bamboo slips on Cao Chong's hand directly.
"Then I'll read it for Kurashu!"
The third brother has already given himself a surprise. I wonder if this seventh brother will be the same...
Cao Cao opened the bamboo slips with joy on his face, but his eyes changed.
How much life is when drinking and singing?
It’s like morning dew, and the past is full of suffering.
I should be generous with my heart, and I will never forget my worries.
...
...
The mountains are never tired of high and the water is never tired of deep.
This southern expedition brings the whole world back to its heart.
How come this looks like my style?
Cao Cao looked at Cao Chong with a strange expression, but he immediately read it out.
The leader's speech was naturally silent in the audience, not to mention that there seemed to be ambitious in this poem, which made many people want to see Cao Chongqing.
These seven young masters are really talented as great scholars!
What a monster, a monster!
When Cao Zhi was halfway through the short song, he fell down. If the White Horse Chapter is so grand, the atmosphere is warm, and the language is exquisite, it can be called a both romantic style, then this short song is not only exquisite in all kinds of classics, gorgeous in the lyrics, but also profound in meaning. It is much deeper than his own White Horse Chapter.
What made Cao Zhi most desperate was that this poem looked too similar to Cao Cao's style! Whether it was something Cao Cao intended to Cao Chong or that Cao Chong wrote such a masterpiece, it was not good news for Cao Zhi.
Father Xiao!
It is an extremely important point in ancient times. If this short song was really written by Cao Chong himself, then it would be terrible. The literary style is so similar to that of his father, it would be strange if his father didn't like him.
And if this short song was given to him by his father, it proves that Cao Cao already had a candidate for the prince in his heart!
Cao Zhi's face was ashes and he was actually staying in the venue for a while!
It is always quiet before a storm, but after it is a storm!
"This poem is very exquisite, and it is not too convincing compared to Pingyuan Hou's "White Horse Chapter"!"
"It's not just not to show off too much. The Seventh Young Master's "Short Songs" is a street that passes the Pingyuan Hou Baima Chapter!"
"Yes, I agree!"
…………
There were people who praised Cao Zhi’s White Horse Chapter, but more of them said that short songs were better than white horse chapters. When a hundred words were difficult to adjust, everyone turned their attention to Cao Cao.
Prime Minister, what do you think?
Cao Cao put down the bamboo slips, but he felt extremely strange. He began to conceive a essay a few days ago, and the style was probably similar to that of Cao Chong.
I also wanted to quote the sentences in the Book of Songs, but I didn’t expect that my sons had done them all for me!
You boy, you are the worm in your father’s belly!
Seeing so many people's eyes, Cao Cao bowed to Emperor Xian of Han and said, "Whose literary essays of Your Majesty think is better?"
Both of them are their own sons, and their palms and backs are fleshy. Even if Cao Cao thinks that Cao Chong's writing is better, it is difficult to speak.
So he threw this issue to Liu Xie and also gave him a sense of existence.
Liu Xie did not expect Cao Cao to ask himself, and after pausing for a long time, he said with a complicated expression.
"In my opinion, Cao Chong's literary fu is naturally better. Although Pingyuan Hou's literary fu is not bad, it lacks a kind of courage."
Talent?
Cao Zhi was in a state of dismay, his pretty face was pale and bloodless, his lips were chapped, his eyes were distracted, and he had already begun to doubt his life!
Is Cao Zhi really not as good as my seventh brother?
Isn’t it better to think for a moment if I have thought for a while?
Yang Xiu kept holding Cao Zhi's shoulder tightly behind his back, otherwise Cao Zhi would have fallen long ago, and his face was complicated. He knew that he underestimated the enemy in this battle today!
Cao Chong is not a child who can be squeezed by others. He already has the ability to counterattack!
When Cao Chong was admired on the court, Jia Xu's face was as usual on the high seat on the court, but there were waves below.
Sima Yi lowered his head and occasionally looked up inadvertently, which was full of murderous eyes!
After this battle, no one dared to doubt Cao Chong, but Cao Chong knew in his heart that the real battle had not yet begun.
Chapter completed!
