Jie Jin branch
Jie Jin's intelligence is extraordinary, and few people can surpass him in the early Ming Dynasty. Although he is a college student, his EQ is rather worrying. Many people like to tease him, including Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming emperor.
One day, Zhu Yuanzhang called Jie Jin and said, "Yesterday, the palace was beaming, and I gave birth to another child. Please write a poem! " Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang so happy, Jie Jin guessed that he might have given birth to a son, so he immediately said the first sentence: "The king sent a golden dragon last night!"
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said, "It's a girl."
Jie Jin's brain turned sharply and quickly added the second sentence: "Change Chang 'e."
Zhu Yuanzhang thought of Doby and said, "It's a pity that he died when he was born."
Jie Jin was shocked again and immediately said to the third sentence, "I don't think the world can stay."
Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "She has been thrown into the water." Jie Jin recited the fourth sentence: "Turn over and jump into the Crystal Palace". Legend has it that only dragons live in the crystal palace, which echoes the first sentence and is wonderful.
Zhu Yuanzhang took him fishing by the river again, but when Jie Jin was sitting there, the fish took the bait and soon caught some big fish.
But the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang didn't catch any of them, which embarrassed the emperor? Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to sit here, but he left without catching any fish. How humiliating this looks! Jie Jin, with extremely high IQ and extremely low EQ, laughed and said, "I don't think the emperor can catch any fish today!"
When this was said, Zhu Yuanzhang's face immediately sank down. Jie Jin was surprised and said, "Your Majesty, please listen to me!"
So, Jie Jin sang a good poem: A few feet of ribbon fell into the water, and the gold hook was thrown without a trace. All the fish are afraid to face the emperor. Long live the king who only catches dragons. This poem made Zhu Yuanzhang overjoyed: "So that's it!" So I put away my fishing rod and stopped fishing. I can only catch dragons anyway. There are no dragons in the river.
Zhu Zhishan branch
Among the four gifted scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, Tang Bohu and Zhu Zhishan have a good relationship. One day, when the Hangzhou magistrate saw Tang Bohu, he took out a painting and asked Tang Bohu to write a poem. Tang Bohu didn't want to write it himself, so he kicked his bad friend Zhu Zhishan out.
Zhu Zhishan also unambiguous, a mouth will be 200 taels of silver. The magistrate closed the door and only gave him 100 Liang. This makes Zhu Zhishan very uneasy. He opened the picture and saw that it was a pier. There are several willows on the shore. There are some partridges and cuckoos on the willow tree. A boat was moored under Liu Yin. A businessman-like man stood at the bow, and a woman stood on the shore with a reluctant expression on her face.
Zhu Zhishan pondered for a moment and wrote four sentences: a big willow tree in the east; A big willow tree in the west; A big willow tree in the south; A big willow tree in the north.
After this poem, let Tang Bohu take it to the prefect. It's satrap's turn, damn it. Is this also called poetry? Is this also a poem written by four talented people in Jiangnan? Did you ruin a good painting of labor and capital? The satrap immediately asked Zhu Zhishan to pay him 100 two pieces of silver and the value of the painting.
Tang Bohu came back and told Zhu Zhishan that Zhu Zhishan said he only gave me half of the money, so I only wrote half of my poem. If he gives me the remaining 100, I will finish painting it all, so that his painting will double in value.
The satrap is very helpless. He wants to give up this 100 yuan, but there is nothing he can do now. As a corrupt official, he doesn't care about this 100, but although he has little money, he hates it, and he can't let a scholar embarrass himself.
So, he said that money could be given to him, but in front of many people, Zhu Zhishan had to finish the poem on the spot. Because he thinks the first four sentences are too vulgar, no matter how Zhu Zhishan writes, he can't write a good poem.
In the evening, the satrap invited all the bigwigs in Hang Cheng, took out the money in public and gave it to Zhu Zhishan, who also presented pen and ink.
Zhu Zhishan laughed, took the money, and wrote, "Whatever you want, east and west, north and south, inextricably linked, you can't live in Langzhou." The partridge is crying here, and Du Yu is crying there, saying, "Brother, don't!" 1: "Let's go home!"
After reading the poem, all the people present were amazed!
Taishou's adult is even more dumbfounded, because after adding these words, the four common words in front of him immediately turn decadent into magic, and the theme of "farewell" and the mentality that women don't want men to leave are vividly displayed. Amid a burst of praise, Zhu Zhishan took the silver medal and took Tang Bohu with him. Since then, both of them have become famous!
