Chapter 831 Don’t give in for 5 buckets of rice
Seeing the little immortal's appearance, the three of them were silent for a moment, and Tao Yuanming smiled and said, "How can we compare them completely? We only need to write a few poems to see how the other party is."
This is making friends through literature. The three of them all nodded, and they all felt that the other person's writing was very good. However, it was just that they couldn't ask the immortal to write poetry all the time, right?
That's impossible. Li Wu nodded and said, "So that's how it is. Now I should talk about your deeds, Mr. Tao Yuanming.
Are you ready? "
Tao Yuanming took a sip of wine and said, "Little immortal, please speak," but he was always ready.
This wine is really delicious. It can't be compared with the wine they have there.
"The first time I knew about you, Mr. Tao Yuanming, was naturally from books," Li Wu spread his hands helplessly. Most of the ancient people were known from books.
But they also learned about it from TV. Although a lot of the TV shows were fabricated, they still learned a lot.
"Not bad, not bad," Tao Yuanming was very satisfied.
Qu Yuan and Bai Juyi were not envious, because their poems were also in the book, and the little fairy had memorized quite a few of them. So there was no need to mention this. Once this was mentioned, the little fairy would be devastated.
"When I was watching TV before, many people said that they would not bow down for a few pieces of silver. Later I found out that it was actually said by you, Mr. Tao Yuanming." Don't mention it, this sentence often appears in many TV dramas.
"I will not bow down for a few bowls of rice," Qu Yuan looked at Tao Yuanming, his eyes full of joy.
In front of the sky curtain, Tao Yuanming's fans were having a party. Many of them were celebrities, while others didn't understand him. They thought, he's just a writer, why do so many people like him?
Only those who are jealous know.
"Especially your Peach Blossom Spring by Tao Yuanming, which has been misinterpreted a lot. It must be a place that you imagined, right?
You can't say there is such a place?" Li Wu asked curiously. Mainly, she watched a lot of videos, and they all said that "Peach Blossom Spring" was a ghost story. Don't say it, it's still a little scary.
Tao Yuanming stroked his beard and smiled, "Of course there is no such place." If there really is such a place, many people would have gone there long ago. It is just a beautiful fantasy.
Bai Juyi also sighed.
Qu Yuan was confused. He naturally didn't know anything about "Peach Blossom Spring" after all, he was before them.
Listening to what the immortal said, you can actually guess what it is about.
"I see." It's normal to have some beautiful fantasies. "Senior Tao Yuanming, you are the founder of the pastoral poetry school!"
"The founder of the pastoral poetry school, not bad, not bad, I like this title," Tao Yuanming laughed, raised his glass and drank another glass of wine with a few people.
"Senior Tao Yuanming, your name is Qian, your courtesy name is Yuanliang, and your alias is Mr. Wuliu. You are from Chaisang County, Xunyang Prefecture.
Mr. Tao Yuanming, your great-grandfather was Tao Kan, a famous general and founding hero of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and your grandfather Meng Jia was also a famous scholar in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Your grandfather and father were both prefects, so it can be said that your family, Mr. Tao Yuanming, comes from a real family of officials.
That's much better than many people.
Besides, your era, how should I put it, is not something many people want to talk about." He was really disgusted with Jin and felt it was dirty to mention it a few more times.
Of course not. The Song Dynasty is considered regrettable in the eyes of many people, but the Jin Dynasty is not even mentioned and is directly skipped over. You can imagine how unpleasant this is!
When Tao Yuanming heard this, he smiled bitterly. How could he not know that he had seen too many comments in the barrage that were full of disdain for their Jin Dynasty.
Especially after hearing the latter part, he felt that it became difficult to breathe. They, the Han people, were almost eaten up, really eaten.
The ancestors in front of the sky curtain collectively despised the Jin Dynasty. Those in previous dynasties already knew what the Jin Dynasty was, so they despised it even more.
But naturally, I sympathize with other people in the Jin Dynasty. I sympathize with them for living in that dynasty. If they had a choice, who wouldn't want to be born in a good dynasty?
There is no choice. How can we choose? How can we choose?
Sky
Tao Yuanming also nodded. It was true. Compared with many people, he was indeed very good.
“So, Senior Tao Yuanming, you have received a very good education since childhood.
However, when you, Mr. Tao Yuanming, were 8 years old, your father suddenly passed away, and your family's financial situation gradually declined.
After you turn twenty, you start leaving home and traveling around to make a living.
It was not until you were 29 years old that you finally got the position of Jiangzhou Jijiu.
At this point, your family has already fallen into poverty, so you really need a substantial income to support your family.
Who isn’t like that?”
All three of them nodded, it was true.
The ancestors who were running around in front of the sky nodded, especially the common people, who went out early and came back late every day just to survive.
"Ancestors, please guess who Tao Yuanming's boss was. I have told you before," Li Wu pretended to be mysterious.
Tao Yuanming's mouth twitched slightly. Really, he didn't want to talk about this anymore. It was too embarrassing.
Qu Yuan and Bai Juyi both stared at Tao Yuanming, trying to figure out who it was from their expressions.
But unfortunately, no one could guess it. However, many people knew it in the barrage. When the name was revealed, they were like, "Help me! It's him!"
"It's Senior Xie Daoyuan's husband, Wang Ningzhi," Li Wu was also helpless. After the three heard this, they all looked disgusted.
“It was then that Senior Tao Yuanming realized that your superior Wang Ningzhi was actually a Taoist who was obsessed with alchemy, drawing talismans, and praying to gods and ghosts.
So many people also speculated that what you said about not bending for five pecks of rice, Mr. Tao, was referring to this." Li Wu glanced at Tao Yuanming, but Tao Yuanming did not answer, but smiled strangely. In short, Li Wu could not tell.
Instead, Bai Juyi raised his glass and drank to Tao Yuanming and the other man.
Li Wu continued, "This made you, Mr. Tao Yuanming, very disappointed, so you resigned and returned home after only two months in office.
Sure enough, within a few years, Wang Ningzhi was besieged by rebels, and he, well, I don’t want to say more about this, I have said it before, Wang Ningzhi died in that war," Li Wu didn't want to mention it a second time, because she felt that Wang Ningzhi was too outrageous and irresponsible.
When the enemy was at the gates of the city, he did nothing but pray every day, waiting for the gods to help.
Tao Yuanming was silent and his face looked unhappy.
"It's a good thing that you, Mr. Tao Yuanming, resigned early, so you escaped the disaster.
Afterwards, you worked as a staff member under Huan Xuan, the governor of Jiangzhou, and Liu Yu, the internal historian of Pengcheng. However, Mr. Tao Yuanming, how could you have any ability to foresee the future? How could you have known that those two were masters of plotting power and usurping the throne?
One established the Huan Chu regime, and the other established the Liu Song regime.
This was something that you, Tao Yuanming, could not accept at all. This was treason, how could it be tolerated? So until you were 40 years old, you, Tao Yuanming, were still wavering between going to work and going home to farm. "
