ps: I didn't explain, please forgive me. The people of the Tang Dynasty called themselves ministers to the members of the royal family and even the emperor himself, and called themselves a minister. The servants and me, and the eunuchs called themselves slaves when they saw their master. As for the tea ceremony that Wang Hua was a mature tea ceremony later. Unlike the mainstream tea ceremony in the Tang Dynasty, there are many kinds of tea ceremony, which may not be in the mainstream tea ceremony. Even the tea ceremony is a matter of which tea ceremony is matched with, and even water, tea sets and fireworks. We will introduce it further later. In addition to the tea ceremony, there are other elegant things, and the little flower will slowly play it out.

Even if you don’t watch the World Cup, this promise will come true. The following is about to enter the first climax of the book.

This issue involves too wide, and it is about the reform of ancient prose. In fact, Wang Bo and others raised it very early, but they still used parallel prose. It was not until Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan that this huge literary reform event officially began. At that time, Han and Liu had a huge influence on the literary world in the Tang Dynasty, and Li Ao and Li Han and other students helped them promote it. That's how they were ridiculed and criticized by many people in the world. Even in the Song Dynasty, some people continued to criticize ancient prose. Zeng Gong deliberately told this in his article "Preface to the Second Life of Li An".

In fact, after the dispute between Wang Hua and Wang Shu spread, some people agreed with Wang Shu. Perhaps Wang Hua's poems were well written, but this kind of article was not very good, although its theme was clear and its judgment was clear.

But that's the case, Han and Liu did not reverse the trend. Until the end of the Tang Dynasty, Pi Rixiu, Lu Guimeng, Luo Yin and others also wrote some articles in ancient style, but their influence was not great. So in the Five Dynasties, parallel prose became popular again. Niu Xiji, the former Shu, proposed in his "On Articles" that at that time, the article "forgets the way of education and is victorious."

In the early Song Dynasty, Wang Yuxi and Liu Kai began to promote ancient Chinese again, but the two fought alone, and the results were not ideal. Especially during the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of Song Dynasty, Yang Yi and Liu Yun were the leaders, pursuing the formalist trend of sound and rhythm, sweeping over the literary world at that time. Later, Shi Jie came out and began to criticize Yang Yi's style of embellishing the moon and playing with flowers. However, Shi Jie's own achievements and status were destined to be unsatisfactory.

It was not until another literary master Ouyang Xiu, who relied on his political status and influence in the literary world that he set up the clarion call for the reform of ancient prose. Not only he was the same, but also his peers, Su Xun, students Su Shi, Su Zhe, Wang Anshi, Zeng Gong, and Su Shi, Huang Tingjian, Chen Shidao, Zhang Lei, Qin Guan, Chao Buzhi and others, who were all experts in ancient prose, which made the ancient prose movement reach a magnificent level. Later, there were Song Lian, Tang Shunzhi, Wang Shenzhong, Gui Youguang and others in the Ming Dynasty, as well as the Tongcheng School and Yanghu School in the Qing Dynasty, which officially made people recognize that ancient prose is higher than parallel prose because of its practicality.

This has been many years of hard work, and Han Su and others are all masters of the literary world in Chinese history!

But who is Wang Hua? Don’t think he received two praises from Wu Zetian, but in his heart he was a thirteen-year-old boy who had no name or status. He wanted to launch the ancient Chinese movement, but he simply wanted to bring the Tang Dynasty into communism.

But Wang Hua did not start directly by criticizing parallel prose, and he asked: "Dear envoys, do you remember the three lacquer boxes that the boy made?"

Old Du, He Zhizhang, Li Longji, and Princess Yuzhen have all seen each other. As for Liu Youqiu, they have only heard of it. Now that the three lacquer boxes have entered the palace, he is not qualified to enter the palace to watch it. However, the others nodded.

"So have you seen what patterns I used?"

In addition to the second paint box, Wang Hua has never used any patterns in these three paint boxes.

"Inscribed patterns on the objects can make the patterns more layered. But this is just the end, and the meaning of the patterns is the theme. If there are too many patterns, the theme of the pattern will be blocked. That will add to the painting."

For example, the same is an enamel bowl produced during the Yongzheng period. The auction price of the four seasons fruits on the inside reached 600,000 yuan, while the Baihua brocade bowl with a small size difference was only 600,000 yuan. If the painting skills are mentioned, the latter is several times more than the former, because the patterns are cumbersome, which makes the latter not as clear as the former. In the end, the price is ten times different.

If Wang Hua played on those three lacquer boxes like enamel flowers and brocade bowls, adorning countless patterns, not only the time cost, it may not cause the final sensation because the theme is unclear.

Several people fell into deep thought after hearing Wang Hua's words. Wang Hua also said: "Parallel prose is like parallelism, sound, allusions, and vocabulary. Although it becomes gorgeous because of this, it may become flashy and unreal, which is not conducive to practicality. On the contrary, ancient prose is mainly composed of single sentences and simple and free, which is more conducive to expressing one's own thoughts. But maybe it was because the boy learned to be shallow and came up with this reason to find an excuse for himself."

Anyway, I don’t do what Han Yu wants to do. That’s too troublesome. It’s a verbal war with a large group of literati all day long. It’s meaningless. I’d better wait for a hundred years to let Han Yu complete it.

Wang Hua didn't know that Wang Bo was not the first person to advocate this. As early as the Western Wei Dynasty, Su Chuo had imitated Shangshu's "Great Precepts", advocating Shang and Zhou ancient Chinese to reform the style of literature, but it was not effective. Emperor Wen of Sui issued an edict to prohibit "written on the beautiful and beautiful literature", and Li Yan wrote a letter to ask for the revolution of Wenhua, but did not reverse the decay.

This topic is too big. Lao Du thinks that I am the best in the world, but when facing this topic, he dare not speak out. Anyway, he came here today, which opened his eyes, but it also made him feel depressed continuously.

Wang Hua also said: "I personally think that whether it is parallel prose or ancient prose, just like the current poetry, there are songs, fu, ancient style, four-character poems, five-character poems, six-character poems, seven-character poems, mixed-word poems, and regulated verses. You cannot say that five-character poems are not good just because you like seven-character poems, and you cannot say that ancient style poems are not good because you like regulated verse. In fact, the quality of poetry depends on the poetry itself. The same is true for the article. In the mind of a boy, the quality of the article is not distinguished by parallel ancient times. Instead, the boy privately uses three realms to describe the content of the article."

"Please say," said Li Longji.

Anyway, it is worth it to come today. I have read many words I have never seen before and many truths I have never heard. Even Li Longji sighed himself, why did he miss that opportunity at Qizhenxuan? If I had stretched out my hand to shake my help, I think this young man would have been very grateful to me. Unlike now, although he is very polite, he clearly has a cold smell in his politeness.

"The first level can be described in one sentence. Last night, the west wind withered the green trees. I went up the tall building alone and looked at the end of the world. The second level can also be described in one sentence. I will never regret my belt getting wider and I will become haggard for her. The third level is to search for him in the crowd for thousands of times. When I look back, the man is in the dim light."

"Can you explain it in detail?" Lao Du heard some meaning, finally put down his airs and asked.

"The first meaning is like the roads in this world, with tens of millions of roads, some are mountain roads, some are water roads, some are Pingyang Avenue, and some are rugged paths, but the same is true for you to walk on? The same is true for articles, such as some people write attentively, and some people write attentively, but it is impossible to write every style by themselves. From learning articles to writing articles, to starting to reflect on the direction they are suitable for, this is the first level of realm. But finding your own direction requires continuous learning and progress. This is a process of persistent pursuit, and then we have reached the second level. The third level is that in the process of searching, we finally find our own goal, and it turns out that the person is standing where he is standing. Only then can he be called great success. He can write it at will, and he writes it casually, and it is all wonderful texts. Or in another sentence, let me explain, see that the mountain is a mountain, see that the mountain is not a mountain, and see that the mountain is a mountain."

This is from the three realms of Zen practice proposed by the Song Dynasty Zen master Qingyuan Xingsi. These people have never heard of it. He Zhizhang stretched out his hand and said, "Please say it."

Although Wang Hua was young, even He Zhizhang was impressed by this relationship. He said that these two words had already been in a respectful tone.

"At the beginning, because of ignorance, I did not think about things. Mountains are mountains and water are water. People use parallel prose, and I also use parallel prose. If others use ancient prose, it would be wrong. This is the state at the beginning. But later I thought about why mountains are mountains? Water cannot be called mountains? Just like articles, why parallel prose must be good, and began to reflect and doubt, so I saw that mountains are not mountains. Finally, after a great enlightenment, I realized that mountains are still mountains, just like articles. Whether parallel prose or ancient prose, I could only write well, clearly convey the meaning expressed to others, and give people a kind of beautiful enjoyment. This is the last state."

After hearing such wonderful words, several people forgot to taste tea and thought deeply together.
