The best idlers of the Tang Dynasty

Du Rui played with Du Yunlian and other girls for half a day, and then he was about to return home. He never thought that a poetry meeting he accidentally participated in, and an article plagiarized because of others' anger, would make him famous in Chang'an City.

Regardless of whether the article is good or bad, just the smooth and flowing characters have already caused quite a stir in Chang'an City. Although the Tang Dynasty established the country with martial arts, the status of scholar-bureaucrats is still lofty, and knowledge is the standard for judging a person Well, Du Rui not only has a great literary talent, but also created an original font, which faintly resembles a master's style. A character like this, even if he is usually low-key and restrained, can't help but inadvertently become famous.

In the past, the Du Mansion, which was deserted in the hall, became lively after Du Rui became famous. Some sons from aristocratic families in Chang'an City, or talented scholars who went to Chang'an to study, came to visit one after another.

In the beginning, Du Rui was patient and received one or two receptions, but gradually, he became impatient. Dropping his bookbags with a group of sour literati who talked about everything else made him feel more uncomfortable than killing Du Rui.

"Young master loves to show off! It's fine to recite poems and paint at home when you have nothing to do, but you have to go to that Laoshizi poetry meeting to argue with others. Now, the son is well-known, and he only suffers from slaves, sisters and Aunt Xue. Today's tea flattery is exhausting!"

Sending away another group of guests, Du Rui had a headache, and Daiyu on the side also had a temper, and couldn't help complaining. She had been with Du Rui for a long time, and she already understood Du Rui's temperament. Easy-going and informal, she also laughed at her occasional petty temper, and even admired it a little, which made Daiyu very happy. The person who poured tea and water today was really tired enough, so she couldn't help it Complained a few words.

Du Rui heard the words and said with a smile: "You girl, tell me. At the poetry meeting that day, you and Xiaolian yelled so loudly that you couldn't stop. If Baochai didn't pull you, you would have danced." Went up to the pavilion."

Daiyu was embarrassed by Du Rui's words, and blushed and whispered: "The young master can only talk nonsense, how can a servant! It's all the young master's own business. If the young master doesn't want to show off in front of others, who can force you!"

Baochai, who was on the side, also laughed secretly when she saw the master and servant revealing each other's ugliness, and hurriedly said, "Daiyu! Why are you so unruly?"

Du Rui smiled, waved his hands again and again and said, "It's okay! It's okay!"

Seeing that Du Rui also looked tired, Baochai couldn't help feeling distressed, and said, "If you feel tired, young master, you might as well close the door to thank guests from tomorrow! If Mr. Qin comes, you can just go through the small door! It will save you from being caught." If people disturb you, you will waste your studies!"

Du Rui couldn't help laughing and said, "Baochai, you speak like an old master in a school."

Baochai was taken aback for a moment, and then thought of what she said just now, as if she was teaching Du Rui a lesson, she couldn't help panicking, and hurriedly said: "It's all slaves who have usurped, young master forgive me!"

Du Rui smiled and said, "I never blamed you, what are you doing like this!"

Du Rui then thought for a moment and said, "Then Yi Baochai! Come! Grind ink for me!"

After hearing this, Daiyu hurriedly put down the teacup in her hand, and hurried up to grind ink for Du Rui. Baochai just smiled, picked up a fan and fanned Du Rui behind him. Treat them as servants and servants, just as finding two playmates for Du Yunlian. The two girls have no duties in the mansion. Some of the rough work is done by Mrs. Xue, and Mrs. Liu rushes to do it. Even if they want to, they have nowhere to do it. , so I can only rush to do more things within my ability. Since Du Rui became famous in Chang'an, there have been more guests visiting, and the two of them were sent by Mrs. Ma to Du Rui's study to wait on him. It was a little uncomfortable at first, but after a long time, I will acquiesce.

At this time, a piece of rice paper had been laid out in front of Du Rui. Du Rui picked up the pen, thought for a moment, then picked up the pen and wrote two seven-character poems. After reading the book and reading these two poems by Du Rui, although I understand them, I don't understand why.

Du Rui was about to explain, but he heard Du Pingyuan say outside the door: "Master! Master Qin is here!"

Upon hearing this, Du Rui hurriedly said, "Please wait for tea in the front hall."

After finishing speaking, he handed the words to Baochai and said, "Go to Du Gui and ask him to find a skilled mason to carve out these two poems and erect them in front of our house tomorrow. Make sure no one will disturb you again!"

Baochai left with that word suspiciously, while Du Rui took Daiyu to the front hall. Li Chengqian was already waiting, but Du Rui's words were missing in the front hall today. When Rui arrived, he hurriedly got up and smiled, "Chengming has been very busy these few days!"

Hearing the words, Du Rui immediately understood what Li Chengqian meant, and said with a wry smile: "My little brother is weak-tempered, and the most impatient is the dignitaries in front of others, but he doesn't want to be burdened by the statement today, but he is ashamed!"

Li Chengqian also knew that in the past few days, there was an endless stream of people visiting Du's mansion. Although Du Rui was young, with that preface, he has now become a great master in the literary world of the Tang Dynasty.

"Chengming is worried about being burdened by the statement, but I don't know how many people can't ask for it!" Li Chengqian said, thinking of Taizong, the father, who was stimulated by Du Rui's reputation at a young age, and was in Chengqing again. The situation of the godson in the hall made me smile wryly in my heart.

Now Du Rui's reputation is not small in Chang'an City. Since that preface was spread, the poem Du Rui mentioned in front of Lai Guogong's mansion, as well as the "Man Jianghong", " "Drinking Alone under the Moon" and "Ai Lian Shuo" were also disseminated intentionally or unintentionally by Taizong or Li Chengqian. The two father and son seemed to intend to make stars.

"Laughing up to the sky and going out, my generation is not a Penghao people", the uninhibited and uninhibited, the "Aspirations eat the meat of the barbarians hungry, laughing and talking about thirsting for the blood of the Huns" in "Man Jianghong", the clear and noble in "Ai Lian Shuo" "Drinking Alone under the Moon" is misty and elegant, Du Rui, a ten-year-old boy, has quietly become the idol of Shuyuan, a famous family in Chang'an.

Not only are the literati admired, but the military generals who have always disliked the sourness and fake jealousy of literati are also enthusiastically praised by Du Rui's song "Man Jianghong".Li Shiji, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty who was portrayed as a magic stick in the novels of later generations, even introduced Du Rui as a confidant. Meat, laughing and talking about drinking the blood of the Xiongnu, so brave, so courageous, and so ambitious."

It is even rumored that Emperor Taizong once judged Du Rui's "Manjianghong" during the court meeting of the Taiji Hall, saying only: "The shame of Weiqiao is still not snowed, and the hatred of the courtiers, when will it be destroyed? However, if all the people in the Tang Dynasty remember the shame of Weiqiao, the Turks will be destroyed in no time!"

Du Rui's reputation has risen, and Du He is the most unhappy one. With the spread of Du Rui's two poems, two poems, and a piece of writing, no one will find out about the fact that the Duke of Laiguo expelled the concubine from the gate wall. Coming out, especially the poem that Du Rui wrote in front of the Laiguo Palace in a fit of anger that day, pushed the Laiguo Palace to the forefront.

"Bastard!"

Du Gou is still keeping a filial piety for Du Ruhui in Du Ling, and now Du He has no one to discipline him. He went out to have a banquet with a few friends yesterday, and occasionally heard about Du Rui. They wrote poems on the gate of their house to show their aspirations, and they were even more annoyed in their hearts, and they vented their anger when they got home.

Old lady Cui came in and saw Du He holding up a vase and was about to throw it out, her face turned cold and she said angrily: "Bastard! You're going crazy for no reason, why don't you stop for your mother!"

Although Du He was lawless, he was most afraid of Mrs. Cui, and felt apprehensive when he saw this. He put down the vase gently with a bitter face, but after enduring his venting, the room was already a mess.

The old lady Cui was doing the job with the support of her servants. She stared at Du He who was still indignant, and said coldly: "Bastard! You are so angry for no reason, you are going to die of anger!"

Seeing that the old lady Cui was angry, Du He didn't dare to defend himself, but kept pleading guilty: "The son has nothing to do, he disturbed the mother."

Although the old lady Cui stayed in the mansion every day, she knew exactly what happened outside. She was also annoyed that Du Rui wrote a poem in front of the Lai Guogong's house to humiliate her, but after all, she was mature and determined. Even Du He couldn't catch up with flattery.

"He has gained fame by relying on his literary skills, but what kind of anger are you!"

When Du He heard this, he said indignantly: "My son just can't see the pride of that bastard. I took Xiao Wei to him that day, and he humiliated the child in every possible way. It's really hateful."

The old lady Cui glared at Du He, and said: "If you hadn't brought someone to regret the marriage, then Du Rui might not have dared to humiliate you!"

Du He was still unconvinced, he snorted angrily and said: "Mother is trying to figure out a way to get that old house back, but if she doesn't make such bad breath, the child will always feel unhappy."

"Come back! Do you think that Du Rui is still a little bastard now? Now that even the current emperor knows his talent and name, it's not that simple to send him away. You still don't see what you see , although he is talented and famous, if he leaves our Lai State Duke's Mansion and the Du Ling Du Clan, where can he go?"

Seeing that even his mother was unwilling to fight against Du Rui again, Du He had no choice but to bear it temporarily even though he was furious.The thing he despises the most is Du Rui. Du Rui has been just a foil for him since he was a child, a bastard who can be bullied at will. He never thought that Feng Shui would take turns, and now Du Rui has become a literary giant in Datang. How could this make him bear it, he swallowed his breath, although he coped with it on the surface, but in his heart he was thinking about when he could give Du Rui a hard blow.
