God's Daughter, Queen of Miraculous Medicine
Chapter 183 Questioning
However, in this harmonious atmosphere, Zhao Lei stood up abruptly, with a bit of provocation in his tone: "Brother Lu, this poem is indeed a masterpiece, but I feel like it is familiar. Could it be that you borrowed from the calligraphy of some predecessor?" His eyes wandered over Lu Tianyu, and a barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Hearing this, Lu Tianyu frowned slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes: "Brother Zhao, what you said is wrong. Poetry is the voice of the heart. How can it be easily copied? Although I, Lu Tianyu, am not a master, this poem is indeed improvised, and there is absolutely no falsehood."
Seeing this, Zhao Lei's smile widened. He sneered, "Humph, improvisation? Such a masterpiece, if not immersed in the sea of poetry for a long time, how can it be easily produced? Brother Lu, please stop quibbling."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar. The originally harmonious atmosphere was instantly broken. Everyone cast complicated glances at him, some questioning Lu Tianyu and some expressing dissatisfaction with Zhao Lei's actions.
Hearing this, County Magistrate Xiao's smile gradually faded, and a hint of solemnity flashed in his eyes. He looked around and saw that everyone was either shocked or talking about something. The atmosphere suddenly became subtle and tense. He coughed lightly, trying to stabilize the situation: "Everyone, we are gathered here to recite poems and appreciate the beauty of the moon. Why should we ruin this good mood because of a momentary doubt?"
Several other scholars also followed suit and said, "That's right, Lu Tianyu, if you can't prove it, then it's plagiarism." They all had a gloating expression on their faces, as if they had already seen Lu Tianyu making a fool of himself.
At this time, Sun Yu, who had been observing silently at the side, stood up. He looked at everyone with firm eyes and said, "I can prove that Brother Lu's poem was indeed written by him, and Brother Lu's talent in our academy is obvious to all." His voice was not loud, but full of power.
Zhao Lei said disdainfully: "Who do you think you are? Who would believe what you say?" A trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, as if he didn't take Sun Yu seriously at all.
Sun Yu smiled slightly and said, "I have known Brother Lu for a long time and I know his talent very well. He would never plagiarize." His tone was calm and confident, which made people admire him a little.
Qian Haoran also said: "Yes! Brother Lu's talent is praised even by the dean." His words reminded everyone of Lu Tianyu's outstanding performance in the academy, and their doubts about him gradually decreased.
Lu Tianyu's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this, but a hint of coldness flashed through his eyes. He stood up, his posture straight, and said slowly: "Brother Zhao, what you said is wrong. Poetry comes from the heart, and emotions come from the scenery. Although I, Lu Tianyu, am not a genius, I can ask myself that the sentences I chanted are all from my true feelings. How can I say that I plagiarized? If Brother Zhao has any doubts, you can ask questions on the spot to prove your innocence."
Seeing this, Zhao Lei sneered, as if he was not going to let this go easily. He looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud. So, he pretended to be calm for a moment and said, "Okay, since Brother Lu is so confident, then I will give you a question. The title is 'Bamboo Forest on a Moonlit Night', and you have to write a poem within one stick of incense. How about that?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and looked at Lu Tianyu, with both expectation and worry in their hearts. The bamboo forest on a moonlit night has a profound artistic conception, which is difficult to control without real talent and scholars. However, Lu Tianyu just smiled slightly and nodded to indicate his agreement.
A stick of incense was soon lit, and the smoke rose up, reflecting the moonlight outside the window. Lu Tianyu closed his eyes and concentrated, as if he was communicating with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, or as if he was recalling his past trip to the bamboo forest. After a moment, he opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and then he began to chant:
"The moonlight is like water pouring down on the bamboo forest, and the gentle breeze caresses my face, bringing peace of mind.
The bamboo shadows dance gracefully, and it seems that you can hear the sound of heavenly music lingering in the air.
There are few people in the deep and secluded path, and only the chirping of insects keeps me company.
Where can I find such a scene and such a feeling? I can only find it in my dreams."
When the poem was finished, the audience was silent for a moment, and then burst into thunderous applause. Lu Tianyu's poem not only depicts the tranquility and beauty of the bamboo forest on a moonlit night, but also incorporates the poet's inner tranquility and detachment, which is breathtaking.
Zhao Lei's face turned pale. He never expected that Lu Tianyu could produce such a masterpiece in such a short time.
Upon seeing this, County Magistrate Xiao nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "What a great 'Moonlit Bamboo Forest', Lu Tianyu, you really didn't disappoint me."
Zhao Lei saw that Lu Tianyu's poem won the applause of the whole house. Although he was unwilling to accept it, he secretly admired his talent. However, he did not intend to give up and decided to further test Lu Tianyu's background. So, he raised a playful smile, stood up, and said to Lu Tianyu:
"Brother Lu is indeed very talented. The poem he just wrote is really refreshing. However, the way of poetry lies in its variety. I wonder if Brother Lu can show his talent again and write another poem on the theme of peach blossoms, so that we can feast our eyes again?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue became tense again. Everyone knew that Zhao Lei's move was intended to embarrass Lu Tianyu, but they also expected him to create another miracle.
When Lu Tianyu heard this, his eyes flickered slightly, and he seemed not to care about Zhao Lei's provocation. He smiled slightly and replied calmly: "Brother Zhao is in such a good mood, so I will accompany you. Since Brother Zhao likes peach blossoms, I will borrow peach blossoms again and present a new song."
After saying this, Lu Tianyu closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then slowly opened his mouth and chanted:
"Peach blossoms smile in the spring breeze, dancing lightly in the world.
The bright colors reflect the sunlight, and the fragrance intoxicates the heart.
Butterflies linger on the flowers on the branches, and birds sing among the flowers.
I wish we could stay together forever, and accompany each other in the peach forest year after year."
In this poem, Lu Tianyu not only depicts the beauty and fragrance of peach blossoms, but also incorporates the harmonious beauty of natural ecology and people's yearning for beautiful emotions. The poem is fresh and refined, with profound artistic conception, and once again won warm applause from everyone present.
"Good poem! Good poem!" Thunderous applause and cheers suddenly rang out from the crowd, and everyone's face was full of admiration. They all cast admiring glances at Lu Tianyu, expressing their high recognition of his talent.
Lu Tianyu looked at everything in front of him with a smile, and a sense of satisfaction surged in his heart. He knew that his efforts were not in vain, and he used his talent to bring joy to everyone.
At this time, a man stood up and said, "Such a masterpiece is really amazing! I wonder how many poems like this Brother Lu has? Can you give me another one?"
Hearing this, the others also echoed: "Yes, Brother Lu, sing another song! Let us appreciate your style again!"
Facing everyone's expectations, Lu Tianyu nodded slightly and said humbly: "Thank you all for your kindness. In that case, I will once again perform peach blossoms to show my ugliness." After that, he flicked his sleeves and began to compose the next poem.
For a moment, the whole scene became unusually quiet. Everyone held their breath, quietly waiting for Lu Tianyu's new work to come out.
Then he pondered for a moment, and inspiration came to him like a spring.
"The peach blossoms are radiant in the spring light, their fair faces are shy and fragrant with dew.
The wind blows the branches and the trees are full of flowers; the clouds clear and the sun shines on the red flowers.
The beautiful woman leans lightly under the peach tree, her smile as sweet as that of a fairy.
This feeling and this scene are infinitely beautiful, I wish I could be accompanied by the fragrance of flowers forever. "
Lu Tianyu looked at Brother Zhao with a smile on his face and asked, "Brother Zhao, do you like these two peach blossom poems?"
After listening to Lu Tianyu's two new works, Zhao Lei's expression became complicated.
He originally thought that he could stump the other party, but he didn't expect that Lu Tianyu could handle it so easily, and even showed his extraordinary talent again. He snorted coldly, and then said nothing more, just sat back in his seat silently.
Thus, a storm caused by doubts was finally calmed down by Lu Tianyu's talent and Xiao County Magistrate's fairness. Everyone continued to recite poems and discuss Taoism, and the atmosphere became harmonious and warm again.
