Yan Shu, whose word is the same as uncle, is young and smart. She can write at the age of seven and is known as a child prodigy. When Song Zhenzong summoned him, he was asked to have an interview with Jinshi in the court. Yan Shu's composition is written with a pen. It is said that after reading the questions in the exam, Yan Shu told the emperor: "I wrote this article ten days ago, and the draft is still there. Please give me another title. " The emperor praised his honesty and gave him a scholarship in public.
A few years later, Yan Shu went to Hangzhou to be an official. When passing through Yangzhou, I lived in daming temple. When he saw many poems on the wall, he asked the waiter to read them, but he was not allowed to read the names of the authors of the poems, so that he could enjoy them first. The waiter read a poem: Water Tunes the Sui Palace Song, which was also 90% in that year. The cry is gone, and the wasteland is still in spring. The musical instrument Phoenix finally disappeared, and the frog only boiled.
Desolate, I can't ask, the city is in the sunset. Hearing this, Yan Shu said, "I won't read it. Who is the author? " The waiter said, "Wang Qi, the magistrate of Jiangdu County." "Please invite him to dinner quickly. I want to ask him for advice. " Yan Shu thinks that Wang Qi is a gifted scholar. Wang Qi came, and they had a very speculative conversation at dinner.
Yan Shu insisted on asking him for advice, saying, "My fine print has the sentence" I can't help but spend ",but I can't write that sentence. For several years, it can be said that there is nothing to do, nothing to do! " Say, "Why don't you use the phrase' I've known Yan for a long time'? "
When Yan Shu heard this, she clapped her hands and said, "When I finished writing" Falling Flowers Helpless ",I walked into a dead end. This is called" Doubt has no way to answer ". Now you help me write the following sentences, and my eyes light up. This is the so-called "another promising village".
Yan Shu appreciated Wang Qi's talent and made him an aide. Later, he asked Wang Qi's good friend Zhang Kang to be the chief of staff. These two people are fat and thin, just like a couplet.
Fat Zhang Kang was called "cow" by Wang Qi, and thin Wang Qi was called "monkey" by Zhang Kang. They played the opposite sentence: Zhang Kang touched the wall in a figure of eight, and Wang Qi looked at the moon and called it midnight. The first sentence says "cow" and the second sentence says "monkey". Yan Shu laughed and high-fived two talented people.
2, the text is not tired of precision
Ouyang Xiu, one of the eight masters in Tang and Song Dynasties, attached great importance to the revision of articles. When he was a magistrate in Chuxian County, Anhui Province, he wrote an essay "Zuiweng Pavilion". It is said that after he finished writing this article, he copied it several times and posted it at the gates of six cities at that time for passers-by to read and revise.
One day, an old man passed a city gate carrying firewood and saw many people around him. Out of curiosity, he put down the firewood and squeezed in. At this moment, someone was reading the drunken pavilion posted on the wall: "Chuzhou is surrounded by mountains, with Wulong Mountain Scenic Resort in the east, Dafeng Mountain in the west, Huashan Mountain in the south and Baiwei Mountain in the north. The mountain peak in the southwest ... "Hearing this, the old man shook his head and said to himself," Taishou's article is good, but it is too wordy. "
At this point, Ouyang Xiu also happened to be nearby. When I heard this, I suddenly realized. He hurried back to his study at home and began to meditate, revising and tempering this passage over and over again. Finally, at the beginning of these dozens of words, only an extremely refined sentence "The Chuhe River is also a mountain" was left.
3. Tips, poetry bags and Crocker
Li He, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, gets up early every day to write poems, carries a rice bag and a backpack, rides a thin horse and walks along a stream. Along the way, he carefully observed and understood the natural scenery, that is, he recited poems in the scenery. Whenever he came up with a good sentence, he wrote it on a note and put it in his own kit. In this way, I persist in accumulating life materials from morning till night and diligently create poems.
Li He's mother looked at her son's bag full of poems and notes and said with great distress, "Alas! Son, do you have to give up sooner or later? " It is precisely because of Li He's painstaking efforts and meticulous carving that his poems can be celebrated for thousands of years.
Coincidentally, Mei, a famous poet in the Song Dynasty, always carries a bag called "Poetry Bag" with her when she goes out to play or visit relatives and friends. When he sees something new or beautiful, he writes it on paper with a pen and then puts it in his bag. In the long run, Mei's poetry has made great achievements.
4. Qian Zhongshu-Preface for Father
18 years old, Qian Zhongshu was admitted to Wuxi Fu Jen Senior High School of the Anglican Church. He often writes for his father Qian Jibo, from dictation to writing, and from writing to writing.
Qian Zhongshu once wrote an epitaph of a large rural family for his father. Occasionally, he heard his father praise the article to his mother. This is the first time Qian Zhongshu heard his father praise him, and he almost jumped for joy.
In his later years, Jiang Yang recalled that Qian Mu's Introduction to Chinese Studies 193 1 was published by the Commercial Press, and he asked Qian Jibo to make a preface. Qian Jibo asked Qian Zhongshu to ghostwrite. After the preface was written, my father did not change a word. When Introduction to Chinese Studies was published, no one saw that this preface was written by a young man who just turned 20.
Huang Kan mistook ink for a side dish.
19 15, a famous scholar Huang Kan gave a lecture on Chinese studies in Peking University. He lives in Datong apartment in Baimiao Hutong, Beijing. He devoted himself to studying "Chinese studies" all day. Sometimes he doesn't go out to eat. He prepared steamed bread, peppers, soy sauce and other condiments and put them on his desk. Eat steamed bread when you are hungry, watch it while eating, and don't eat it. When he saw the beautiful scenery, he shouted, "Great!"
Once, I was fascinated by reading, so I put the steamed bread in the inkstone cinnabar box. After eating for a long time, I painted a red face and didn't notice it. A friend came to visit and smiled. What else does he know to laugh at him?
