A collection of couplets by Ji Xiaolan, a romantic genius

a complete collection of Ji Xiaolan couplets

Ji Yun, whose name is Xiaolan and whose name is Chunfan, was born in xian county, Hebei. He was a famous scholar and writer in Qing Dynasty, and was the chief usurper of Siku Quanshu Library. He is good at poetry and writing, knowledgeable, quick-witted and humorous, especially the couplets. Known as the "master of couplets" and "a generation of literators", he is the official to the history of the Ministry of Rites, and assists the university students.

Ji Xiaolan wrote Notes on Reading Wei Caotang, which borrowed ghost foxes to make human love. Lu Xun called it "the subtlety of the human world < P >, asking orphans and ghosts to express their views, thinking witticisms, and solving them at the right time;" There are mixed arguments and insights. ..... the sky is full of interest, so no one can take its seat later. "

Ji Yun studied in a private school when he was a child, and he was very intelligent. He read it and memorized it. Known as a child prodigy. Its teacher Mr. Shi loves it very much. Because there was no pressure on him from his homework, he took time off to feed the house birds. Remove a brick hole from the brick wall and put it in the house bird and block it with bricks. Mr. Shi blamed him for doing nothing, so he threw the domestic finch to death and put it in the hole again, and then blocked it, and played with a couplet:

Fine feather poultry brick died after

When Ji Xiaolan saw it, he knew that it was Mr. Shi's doing it, and then he continued to say to a couplet:

Mr. Shi, a coarse-haired beast

Mr. Shi was greatly annoyed, and he coached Mr. Ji Xiaolan, why did he insult Mr.? Ji Xiaolan, however, unhurriedly argued: "I continued to write the second part according to my husband's first part.

Look, coarse versus fine, hair versus feather, wild versus home,

beast versus bird, stone versus brick, first versus later, life versus death. What's wrong with this? Please advise me. " Mr. Shi was speechless and left. A few days later, Ji Yun went to see Mr. Shi. Mr. Shi was still angry and his face was as heavy as water. He sat firmly in the plush chair and refused to welcome him. When Ji Xiaolan saw this, he made another devious move, walked back from Mr. Wang's house, and asked how to pronounce and speak the word "Shuo". Mr. Shi didn't mind at all, and didn't realize it until Ji Yun left. It turned out that the lottery was a "turtle in the door", which scolded him for not going out to see the guests off, but it was not easy to add responsibility, and he secretly scolded him: standing upright and crooked!

One day, Ji Xiaolan and several children were playing ball in the street, which coincided with the Taishou's passing. Their ball happened to be thrown into the Taishou's official sedan chair. At one time, the chief shouted sharply, and all the children fled in shock. Xiaolan was the only one who didn't escape, but even stepped forward and stopped the sedan chair to catch the ball. The Taishou respected his courage, and he was naive and didn't blame him, and he and Yan Yue. XiaoChanLan naively nodded in agreement, waiting for the prefect to leave the league. The satrap said,

There are six or seven boys, but you are cunning.

Xiaolan casually said,

The satrap has two thousand stones, and he is the only male ... "The last word was delayed.

the satrap asked, "Why didn't you say the last word?" Xiaolan said with a smile, "If the Taishou returns the ball to me, it will be' exclusive honesty'. If the ball is not returned to me, it will be' exclusive greed'."

Seeing that he was clever and cunning, the satrap answered like a stream, and he was sure to get ahead in the future, so he smiled and returned the ball to him.

When Xiao Lan took the boy's exam, the examiner was a young talent, who had only been in the exam for three years. Because Wen Xiaolan had the reputation of "child prodigy", he was joking. His couplet was:

Eight-year-old children, how could they aspire to be in the exam?

Unexpectedly, Xiao Lan immediately responded with the following couplet:

Three years' experience, no ambition to serve the country < My feet never touched the ground.

Xiaolan replied:

The prime minister of the DPRK can hold the sky with one hand.

The examiner saw a seven-story pagoda in front of the temple opposite the examination room, and another road was connected:

The pagoda has six or seven floors and is surrounded by east, west, north and south.

Xiaolan replied:

The constitution is written in December, and the year is spring, summer, autumn and winter.

So the examiner had to sigh.

this talented scholar, who is well-known in the countryside, entered Beijing with his father at the age of 12 and returned home at the age of 17. After being admitted as a scholar at the age of 21, he went to an academy outside Fucheng, and went on an outing in spring. As he walked, he found himself smelling a peach blossom. Unexpectedly, he met the former examiner, who had been promoted to the position of magistrate and was traveling incognito. In a hurry, Xiaolan hid the peach blossom in his hand in his sleeve as a gift. When the magistrate saw it, he came up with a couplet:

White-faced scholar, with spring scenery hidden in his sleeve

Xiaolan calmly replied:

Huang Tang was a satrap, and his eyes were observant.

The magistrate's adults were amazed and admired him.

Ji Xiaolan won the first place in the provincial examination at the age of 24, and later won the Jinshi, serving as a bachelor, and serving as a bachelor is to accompany the emperor to study. Every day, I have to tell the emperor about Hanshu, and I can't leave with him. Life is boring, and you have to be careful in everything. If you are negligent and annoy the emperor, you will be beheaded or imprisoned.

after a long time, the emperor also saw that Ji Xiaolan seemed to have something on his mind. One day, the emperor said to him, "I think you look pale and you must have something on your mind. Let me guess." Ji Xiaolan which dare not let the emperor guess? The emperor said, "In my opinion, you are-

thinking about your wife, children and parents.

Ji Xiaolan was surprised when he heard that the emperor had guessed his thoughts. But he didn't seem to mean to blame from the tone, so he knelt down and said, "Emperor Shengcong, if he was granted permission to visit his mother, Ji Xiaolan was very grateful. I'm a couple-

thank you in person, thank you for your days, thank you for your land, and thank you for your king.

The emperor was very happy and immediately approved him to go home to visit relatives.

Ji Xiaolan entered the Imperial Academy at the age of 3, and became famous for his quick wit and witty remarks. One day, Mrs. Wang Hanlin asked Ji Xiaolan to write a congratulatory message for her birthday. I saw that he had a well-thought-out plan, did not give in, and did not use pen and ink to write. On the occasion, Mrs. Tai asked Ji Xiaolan to write a congratulatory message for her birthday. I saw that he had a well-thought-out plan, did not give in, and did not use pen and ink to write. He read aloud impromptu:

This woman is not human.

This sentence shocked everyone. Everyone looks at each other, and Taifuren is angry and wants to attack. Wang's face is yellowish. At this very embarrassing juncture, Xiaolan calmly read out the second sentence:

Nine-day fairy descended to earth

Everyone immediately gave a loud crash and praised her. Of course, the old lady walked over to turn anger into joy, and Wang Hanlin was even more relieved. When everyone was noisy, Xiaolan raised her voice and read out the sentence:

Give birth to a son to be a thief

Like a frog in a pond, Xiaolan suddenly dropped a stone, and immediately became speechless. The owner froze there and was stupid. I didn't know what Xiaolan was going to do, and I felt very embarrassed. Hundreds of eyes are focused on xiaolan. I saw him scanning the audience for a week, which kept everyone's appetite alive and slowly read out the closing sentence:

stealing a flat peach for his mother

The audience immediately burst into laughter and everyone was happy.

Emperor Qianlong, who is also fond of dancing and writing, chatted with his ministers in the convenience hall one day and mentioned the word "color difficulty" in The Analects of Confucius. Qianlong said, "This word is the most difficult to be right." Ji Xiaolan responded with the voice: "Easy"!

"Then try it!" Gan Long said.

"The competent minister has been right." Xiao LAN answered.

"Ah … Rong … Yi …" " Qianlong remembered the word "easy" said by Xiaolan, and it was really a wonderful pair. He couldn't help laughing, and all the ministers admired Xiaolan's ingenuity.

emperor Qianlong led his ministers to mount Taishan and went to Dai temple to offer sacrifices. At that time, there was a wild stage bangzi drama in front of the temple, "The West Chamber", and Gan Long had a brainwave and said to Xiaolan, I have a couplet. Would you like to try the next couplet?

Dongyue Temple plays the West Chamber, and the southern accent is transferred to the north.

Xiaolan muses a little:

Spring and the square, selling summer cloth, autumn harvest and winter storage

Spring, summer, autumn and winter are the four seasons, which are handy for the southeast and northwest, but very appropriate.

The monarch and his subjects swam to the Guanyin Pavilion, and Qianlong made another couplet for Ji Xiaolan to say:

Every inch of land is a temple, and there are poems beside the temple, and poems say: sail away from the ancient temple tomorrow.

Xiaolan is indeed unambiguous, and she replied:

Two trees make a forest, and the undergrowth indicates that it is forbidden, and it is forbidden to say: axe pounds enter the forest with time.

This couplet is right.

The day they arrived at the "Doumu Palace" coincided with the completion of a newly-built Buddhist temple in the palace. Because of this, the teacher asked the Qianlong monarch and ministers for a poem couplet to hang the Buddhist temple. Ganlong first wrote a couplet:

bells chimed and drums sounded freely

mountains, waters and colors looked for, and all colors were empty

hundreds of female nuns paid their compliments, and invited the world-famous Ji Xiaolan university students to write an couplet. Ji Xiaolan looked around at the nuns, and his habit of joking was repeated. I saw that he wrote a couplet:

one straight

two open doors

When all the nuns saw it, they were angry, and the ministers couldn't help laughing. Qianlong also blamed Ji Xiaolan for being too frivolous, and the joke was out of control. He was just about to blame him. Ji Xiaolan had written a pen and added three words under the newly written couplet, which became:

A straight road leads to the West, and

Two doors open.

The implication completely turned into a good couplet, and all the women immediately turned their anger into joy, admiring the great talent of University Ji, and even Gan Long smiled ha ha.

once, Ji Xiaolan was in the brothel "Zuiyuexuan", writing poems and couplets with all the girls, laughing and having fun. Wu Wenkui, who claimed to be a talented man in the south of the Yangtze River, suddenly came to compare with Ji Da's literary talent. Ji Xiaolan ha ha a smile, Wu Wenkui read out his couplet without fear:

Only a true hero can get here

Ji Xiaolan almost casually replied without thinking:

Why are poor children demanding

The speed surprised Wen Kui. Ji Xiaolan read the first couplet according to the agreement:

I admire your lofty sentiments, and I can be like this beauty.

Wu Wenkui thought a little, and said to me:

I lamented that I had studied hard for ten years, in order to achieve wealth and fame.

I didn't compete with each other, but then I spoke to the curtain couplet, and Wu Wenkui took the lead.

Ji Xiaolan immediately said,

Yam!

Wu Wenkui immediately added a word to it and said,

tender begonia!

Ji Xiaolan also added a word:

old yam!

Wu Wen

Kui turned to look at Begonia again, and added a word:

Begonia with tender leaves!

Ji Xiaolan followed suit and said,

Lian Mao's old yam!

At this time, all the people in the room focused on them and watched them perform in silence. Wu Wen

Kui then added two words:

A tender begonia with leaves!

Ji Xiaolan answered with confidence:

Half-hairy old yam!

Wu Wen

Kui glanced at the prostitutes present and added:

Insert a tender begonia with leaves obliquely!

Ji Xiaolan solemnly rubbed his nose and said,

Hang a half-hairy old yam!

Some people can't help snickering, and some people haven't paid attention to laughing at anything yet. Wu Wen

Kui added two words:

A tender begonia with leaves is obliquely inserted at the side!

Ji Xiaolan smiled and said,

Half-hairy old yam is hanging around his waist!

As soon as this couplet came out, the whole audience immediately burst into laughter. However, although Wu

Kui felt embarrassed,

he was still not to be outdone. He changed to a teasing tone and added three words:

I love you to plant a begonia with tender leaves obliquely!

It means to make fun of Ji Xiaolan as a woman. Where do you know that Ji Xiaolan, who has always played tricks on people with the poetry association, can suffer this loss? He immediately went on to say,

You're afraid I'll hang half a hairy old yam around my waist!

There was another burst of laughter, and Wu Wen

blushed. Instead of taking advantage of Ji Xiaolan, he was humiliated and humiliated, but he had to turn around and leave.

In one year, Tianjin Prefecture held the oath of Niu Renyi and married a daughter-in-law for its son. Ji Xiaolan and Niu Taishou are cousins, so they sent someone to send him a pair of couplets:

Embroidering the pavilion and enjoying the full moon

The next day, Ji Xiaolan came to congratulate him and said to Niu Taishou, "Cousin, my couplet quoted the allusion of your family." The satrap didn't understand its meaning. After several reminders, he laughed. It turned out that the first part quoted the story of "Wu Niu Chuan Yue", and the second part used the allusion of "casting pearls before swine". Be passed down as a joke by the guests.

Niu Taishou said to Ji Xiaolan with a wry smile, "I think your habit of playing tricks on people is better than yours!"

Ji Xiaolan asked, "Where did the competition come from?"

Niu Taishou said, "A prostitute is a good person, and she is not comfortable in her room."

"What do you mean?"

"this is called a bad habit that cannot be changed!" " When Niu Taishou finished speaking, the two men laughed at the same time, and the guests next to them laughed.

once, Liu Yushu, the champion of the new subject, paid a visit. Meeting in Ji Xiaolan Hall. Asked: "Where do you live now?" Liu Yushu respectfully replied, "Students stay in Furong Temple temporarily." Hearing this, Ji Xiaolan thoughtfully, and suddenly burst out laughing on his back. But when she just laughed out loud, a girl rushed out and handed him a note. Ji Xiaolan's face suddenly changed, and her laughter stopped. When the new champion saw it, it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so he hurriedly excused himself.

It turned out that the note said, "Madam is in critical condition". Mrs. Ma was afraid that he would embarrass others again, so she came up with this strange trick, and it really became a wonderful way to stop laughing.

xiaolan knows her own fault, but it's hard to change after a long habit, and then she can't control it. Just now, when he heard that the new champion was staying in Furong Temple, he immediately came up with such a couplet:

Liu Yushu stayed in Furong Temple

Pan Jinlian made a scene in the grape trellis

This time, thanks to Mrs. Ma's timely stop, he didn't read the couplet and avoided an embarrassment.

Ji Xiaolan always takes pleasure in teasing others, and few people around him are not teased by him, and they repeatedly invite resentment. When xiaolan first entered the academician courtyard, she was on duty in the south study room. The eunuch general manager didn't know him. Seeing that he was wearing a fur robe and holding a folding fan, he looked funny. He said to him in a ostentatious tone:

Little Hanlin, wearing winter clothes and holding a summer fan, did you read a book in the Spring and Autumn Period?

When Xiaolan heard the old eunuch speak with a southern accent, he casually replied:

The old general manager was born in the south and came to the north. Is that thing still there?

After that, the eunuchs knew that he was knowledgeable and funny, so when they saw him, they had to make fun of him. One day, Ji Xiaolan was about to enter the palace to play, when several eunuchs stopped him and said that he would write couplets with him. A eunuch linked

ternary solution, meeting and shape,

Ji Xiaolan casually said:

There are four seasons: summer, winter and autumn.

after listening too much, one of them asked first, "If you say four seasons, why is there no spring?"

Xiao Lan smiled and replied, "Why is there no spring? You should know it in your hearts!"

The eunuchs couldn't help laughing.

An older eunuch said, "Master Ji made fun of us and punished you for telling a story before you left."

Ji Xiaolan said, "I'm really busy playing music. I'll talk about it next time." The eunuchs refused to do it, saying, tell the shortest and interesting one.

Ji Xiaolan said, "Then tell the shortest one. There is a person ... " He stopped here and silently looked around at the eunuchs in front of him, trying to snatch away.

The eunuchs were anxious to know the next part, and they scrambled to ask him, "Where is this man?" Ji Xiaolan put on a serious look and replied, "There is nothing below!"

"ah? ..... "The eunuchs listened, first one leng, and then remembered that they were mocked by Ji Xiaolan again.

Ji Xiaolan was favored by his talents and was envied by the crowd. On one occasion, there were sparrows flying about in the corner of the temple. A minister said to Ji Xiaolan, "Ji Jun is talented, so why not write a poem about sparrows?" Ji Xiaolan did not refuse, and casually read:

one nest, two nests, three or four nests

five nests, six nests, seven or eight nests

At this point, the crowd laughed and mocked and said, "It turns out that Ji Jun's poem is just a math teacher counting sparrow nests."

Ji Xiaolan was neither supercilious nor supercilious, and then read:

Eat up the royal infinite millet
