In ancient times, there was a champion, it was really a thousand armies and horses crossing the canoe bridge, incomparably difficult, incomparable scenery.
It is the "Xiucai" in the mouths of the common people, in the Ming Dynasty and qing Dynasty, it is also the identity of having a head and a face, and it is definitely not a "poor student".
I am a real swimmer, a reader who loves couplets. Remember to follow me. Today I will talk to you about the folk tales of Hu Changling, the head of the Qing Dynasty, and talk about Hu Changling's 3 pairs of couplets.
Hu Changling is a native of Nantong, Jiangsu Province, who has been clever and clever since he was a child, exported into chapters, and has the name of "prodigy".
It is said that when Hu Changling was nine years old, he asked his father to lead the way and go to take the imperial examination.
Because Hu Changling did not know the road, he sat on his father's shoulder and let his father send it to the examination room.
When he arrived at the examination room, the chief examiner saw that Hu Changling was still a child, thought that the child was making a fool of himself, and said casually: "You are too young, or come back to the exam in a few years." ”
As a result, Hu Changling immediately replied: "The imperial court conducts the imperial examination, is the examination talent or age?" ”
The chief examiner was dumbfounded, and his heart was more fond of this child, so he said to Hu Changling: "I will give you an upper link, and if you are out of the lower link, I will let you take the exam." ”
Although Hu Changling was young, he was not ambiguous at all: "Please ask the question." ”
The chief examiner deliberately made fun of Hu Changling and made a superior link: "If the father is a horse, how can he apply for the examination?" ”
This is to make fun of Hu Changling's young age, saying that Hu Changling does not understand things and is not filial piety.
As a result, Hu Changling blurted out: "Why can't you hope to become a dragon?" ”
The chief examiner was instantly shocked and couldn't help but praise: "With this wizard, you can pass the test." ”
The first couplet: How can the father be a horse, how can he answer the examination; why not hope that the son will become a dragon?
Another time, Hu Changling saw a group of readers on the road hanging their heads in despair, all gathered around a palanquin.
Hu Changling was very strange, and when he walked over to take a look, he found that the people in the palanquin were famous local scholars.
Scholars and readers paired up, and it was difficult to read more than a dozen readers, so people who read books were listless.
Although Hu Changling was young, he had the heart to accept the challenge, so he said to the scholar: "The boy is not talented, please sir." ”
Scholars are dismissive of Hu Changling, a group of readers have become defeated generals, where does a small child pay attention to it?
Therefore, the scholar sat in the palanquin, did not even stick out his face, but said casually: "The geese fly high mountains with their backs to the sky." ”
Without thinking, Hu Changling immediately replied: "The boat travels thousands of miles to drive mud." ”
The second couplet: geese fly high mountains with their backs to the sky; the boat travels thousands of miles to drive mud.
Hu Changling's lower link is not only neat and tidy, but also has a very good picture of life, indicating that Hu Changling is not a nerd who "does not hear things outside the window with both ears", but a person with a heart who actively pays attention to life.
After hearing the lower link, the scholar admired Hu Changling's talent very much, immediately pushed open the curtain of the palanquin, enthusiastically held Hu Changling's hand, and chatted with Hu Changling very happily.
The eyes of a group of readers were stunned, and they couldn't imagine that dozens of them were no more than a teenager, which was really humiliating.
Hu Changling won the title in the fifty-fourth year of Qianlong (1789) and became famous all over the world.
However, there are many folk sayings about Hu Changling's middle-ranking title.
It is said that although Hu Changling was admitted to the Jinshi, his real result was not the first place, but the tenth place.
However, at that time, the Qianlong Emperor was already an old man, and he longed for his "immortality" and become a real "centenarian".
Therefore, when the Qianlong Emperor saw Hu Changling's name, he was very appreciative of the two words "Changling".
Because long age is longevity, the Qianlong Emperor is extremely eager for longevity, and naturally appreciates "Hu Changling".
Therefore, Qianlong Dili defied the consensus of the people and elected Hu Changling, who ranked tenth, as the champion.
This matter is said to have caused dissatisfaction among many readers, but there was no choice but to secretly complain: "Hu Changling was actually selected as a champion because of his name, which is really a lucky person." How could I not have this luck? ”
Of course, there is another folk story of "Hu Changling" Zhongzhuangyuan.
It is said that during the temple examination, the Qianlong Emperor had a sudden idea and asked the candidates to pair up.
The Qianlong Emperor's upper link was: "Eastern Qiming, Western Changgeng, Southern Ji Beidou, who is the star picker?" ”
It is said that the next link of the talented son "Liu Fenghuan" is: "Spring peony, summer peony medicine, autumn chrysanthemum and winter plum, and the minister is Tanhualang." ”
Qianlong Emperor Long Yan Dayue directly selected Liu Fenghuan as "Tanhua".
When Hu Changling listened, he made a small calculation in his heart: "Liu Fenghuan said that he was TanhuaLang, and he was named Tanhua. So if I say that I am a champion, can I become a champion? ”
Hu Changling thought so, and did the same, and his next link was: "Spring Zhimu, Autumn Appendage, Summer Grass and Winter Worm, this is the Yuanfang." ”
The 3rd pair of couplets: Dong Qiming, West Chang Gung, NanJi Beidou, who is the star picker; Chun Zhimu, Qiu Zhizi, Xia Cao Dong Worm, this is the Yuanfang.
Uplink southeast and northwest, downlink spring, summer, autumn and winter. The upper link is all made of stars, and the lower link is made of medicinal materials, which is really neat and exquisite.
Moreover, in addition to the superficial content, the lower link also hides mysteries.
Because, knowing the mother is "filial piety", the appendage is "loyal", loyalty and filial piety, this is the most rare courtier.
Coupled with the word "Zhuangyuanfang" in the lower link, the harmonic pronunciation of "Zhuangyuanfang", let the Qianlong Emperor listen to it, and feel that he did not choose Hu Changling as a Zhuangyuan.
Therefore, the Qianlong Emperor's golden mouth opened: "Hu Changling is the champion!" ”
Other candidates also had to admire that Hu Changling was a "ghost talent", and a subordinate used so many "careful machines", and the middle yuan was also deserved.
