In fact, the Qin family father and son underestimated the influence of this great talent Tang Yin.
When Tang Yin led them onto the boat and rowed towards the luxuriously decorated double-decker boat, he was recognized by several young scholars on the boat as soon as they reached the middle of the river.
"Brother Tang! It's Brother Tang!"
"Look! Tang Bolang, the leader of our four great talents in Suzhou and Hangzhou, is here!"
"Oh my! What a great talent! The party is going to be lively now!"
"Quick! Go upstairs and make a window seat! No, two! I want two! Take out the two jars of daughter's red I prepared!"
"Everyone, come down with me quickly to greet Brother Tang!"
The big ship suddenly became lively. Under the leadership of several talented people, all the literati stood up and walked out of the cabin in a mighty manner, preparing to greet this famous Tang scholar.
As for the people behind him, no one took a serious look at them, but as long as they were brought along by this talented man from the Tang Dynasty, they would definitely have a place on this ship, where they could eat, drink, have fun, and take care of themselves!
Chu Xiaoye followed the great talent of Tang Dynasty and felt the charm of the idol for the first time.
Qin Zhitan, Qin Yu and others were all frightened, nervous and excited. They were surrounded by the talented people and sent into the cabin and onto the seats on the second floor.
After sitting down on the second floor, all the literati who had crowded in had to leave, because there were only a handful of people who could stand here and talk to the great talents of the Tang Dynasty.
However, after finally meeting this great talent of the Tang Dynasty, no one was willing to leave.
One of the older literati, encouraged by the other literati around him, had no choice but to bite the bullet and suddenly said: "I have heard that Brother Tang is very talented. He can pick up poems at his fingertips, and he is also very good at pairing and painting. Today's literary gathering has gathered together literati from all over Suzhou and Hangzhou. Everyone admires Brother Tang's talent. It's not easy to meet Brother Tang today. I hope that Brother Tang will not hesitate to teach me and leave me a piece of work for this literary gathering. , spread it out, it can be regarded as a good talk. I wonder what Brother Tang thinks?"
"Yes, Brother Tang, I hope you can give me some advice."
"Brother Tang, please write a poem. It just so happens that Miss Luoyi, the courtesan of Hongyue Tower, is playing the piano here tonight to cheer up. Why don't Brother Tang write a poem for her, so that she can sing for Suhang and Brother Tang again on the bank of the Qinhuai River? Isn’t it beautiful to be famous?”
"Yes, yes! What Brother Yang said is absolutely true! Brother Tang, look at that Miss Luo Yi, she is looking at you with affection and expectancy."
The group of literati immediately burst into laughter and cheers.
The brothel oiran named Luo Yi also quickly stopped playing the piano, got up and walked over. She bowed Yingying and said softly: "If I can get a compliment from Mr. Tang, Luo Yi will be so grateful, but I can't express it enough." My heart is happy.”
If she can get a message from this great talent of the Tang Dynasty, her status and reputation will definitely reach a higher level after tonight.
"Brother Tang, let's see how you refuse now. Miss Luo Yi is almost on her knees, haha."
The initiator of this literary meeting, Mr. Mei, who was also famous for his talents and whose father was an official, also personally persuaded him.
Tang Bolang couldn't refuse the hospitality. Today he brought so many people here to eat and drink. It was really unreasonable not to bring a piece of work. He could only look at the woman who was still standing in front of him and said: "Miss Luoyi, Then tell me a poem. But you also know that poems sometimes come uninvited, and sometimes they are as painful as constipation. If I can't do it, you can't be angry."
If anyone else had said these words, they would have definitely attracted many looks of disdain, and they would have been scolded: Vulgar!
However, when the great talent of the Tang Dynasty said it, people thought he was frank, cute and approachable, and they all laughed.
Mr. Mei smiled and said, "Brother Tang, just do it with confidence. If you are really constipated, just wait a few days, hahaha."
This remark caused another burst of laughter.
The woman named Luo Yi blushed, thought for a moment, and then said: "Then Mr. Tang, let's make a song based on Dielianhua. It just so happens that the slave family is also singing this song tonight."
"Die Lianhua? This is not easy to do. With so many pearls and jade in front of you, Brother Tang will be in trouble."
When Mr. Mei heard this, he deliberately provoked him, hoping that this great talent of the Tang Dynasty could write a poem that would not only surpass his predecessors, but would at least shine brightly on the banks of the Qinhuai River and in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
"Die Lianhua?"
Tang Bolang frowned, thought carefully, and said, "Let me think about it."
The cabin immediately became quiet, and no one dared to make a sound for fear of disturbing this great talent of the Tang Dynasty.
While Tang Bolang was thinking, his eyes suddenly caught sight of the young man sitting opposite. His heart suddenly moved, and he tentatively asked, "Can Brother Chu know how to compose lyrics?"
In fact, there is no need to ask this question at all. If you can pair words so well, don't you know how to write lyrics
But writing lyrics on the spot is difficult.
"Brother Tang, who is this talented man?"
Mr. Mei's eyes now turned towards the young man sitting carelessly opposite the great talent of Tang Dynasty.
He originally thought that this young man should be a relative of the great talent of Tang Dynasty due to his young age, but now it seems that he is just a friend.
It is not easy to make friends with the great talent of Tang Dynasty.
"Writing lyrics?"
Chu Xiaoye was stunned for a moment. When he saw that the eyes of these scholars had shifted from the great talent of the Tang Dynasty to himself, he felt on pins and needles and said quickly: "Of course not, I don't know how to compose lyrics."
"No way?"
Tang Bolang became more and more disbelieving when he saw that he refused so simply.
He rolled his eyes, stood up directly, walked over and sat next to Chu Xiaoye, hugged his shoulders affectionately and said: "Brother Chu, since we have made friends, we will share the blessings and the hardships. You too I see, brother, I am being forced by these people to compose lyrics, and I can’t do it for a while. It’s really embarrassing. How about you compose a song to help me out, and it can also be considered as a help for me?”
In fact, he had already thought of a poem in his mind, but he felt that it was not too precise and needed more refinement. He was afraid that if he took it out in a hurry, it would damage his reputation as a great talent of the Tang Dynasty. Also, he wanted to test this young man's temperament. Talent, how high is it
To be able to face off against such an impressive pair is a talent that is self-evident, but I don’t know how powerful this talent is.
Therefore, he was ready to take this opportunity to test it out.
"It turns out to be Mr. Chu. Thank you for meeting me!"
Mr. Mei was surprised when he saw that the great talent of Tang Dynasty admired this young man so much, but he did not show it on his face. He immediately said enthusiastically: "Since Mr. Tang said this, Mr. Chu, you can't refuse anymore. Look. Look, so many young masters are looking at you eagerly, and Miss Luo Yi is almost ready to wait. If Mr. Chu refuses again, it will be bad."
In fact, he never thought that this young man could say anything, but since the great talent of Tang Dynasty tried his best to encourage him, there must be other reasons, and he would naturally follow suit.
He was actually guessing in his heart that maybe the great talent of Tang Dynasty wanted to deliberately embarrass this young man in front of so many people
As for the reason, Mr. Mei looked at the girls wearing headscarves sitting next to the boy. Although they all wore headscarves, their figures and faces were the best of the best. These were amazing. Can't hide it.
Even he couldn't control it after watching it just now, let alone the suave and talented Tang Dynasty
Therefore, what he has to do is to help the great talent of Tang Dynasty, so as to curry favor with this great talent who is likely to win the exam this year.
