Sima Huan asked Zhen Changyue, "Will you hear the strange progress of the king's language, Er evil?" Liu Yue: "Extremely advanced, but it is the second-rate human ear." Huan Yue: "Who is the first class of fu?" Liu Yue: "It is my generation's ears!" ”
If your ancient Chinese foundation is not good enough, and you don't understand the meaning of the above sentence, I will give you a break. What it says is that Sima Huanwen came to Jiankang in Kyoto and stopped by Liu Zhenchang to talk about the mountains, and he asked Liu Zhenchang: "I heard that Sima Yu, the King of Huiji, was talking nonsense (Wei and Jin practiced the style of clean talk, and the literati analyzed and asked questions about some metaphysical issues, and repeatedly debated cultural phenomena. There's a lot of progress in terms of this, is that true? Liu Zhenchang sneered twice and said, "Growing up is definitely a long way, but when it comes to the level of nonsense, he can only be regarded as a second-rate level at best." Huan Wen was curious and asked, "Who is the first-class?" Liu Zhenchang said, "Isn't it just you and me, hahaha..."
This text is not something I ripped out of, but an article in a book published during the Southern Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, "The World Speaks New Languages", and the compiler of the book is named Liu Yiqing.
Of course, there are still many passages like this in "The World Speaks New Languages". Like what
When Wang Youjun saw Du Hongzhi, he sighed: "The face is like gelatin, and the eyes are like dots of paint. When the people were called Wang Changshi, Cai Gong said: "Hate everyone for not seeing Du Hongzhi's ears!" ”
One day, Wang Xizhi saw Du Hongzhi and exclaimed, "Oh, Du Ge, you are really a little white face, handsome and confused, you look at your face, as white and tender as gelatin, you look at your eyes black and bright, you can really take a poem to describe, that is, 'Ah, the night gave you a pair of black eyes, but you used it to light my eyes'. Your appearance, if you didn't come back from Korean plastic surgery, it would definitely be a god and immortal! Therefore, once, a person praised the appearance of Wang Meng, who was very durable, and Situ Cai Mo said: "Got it, don't mention any Wang Meng, if you had seen Du Hongzhi, it is estimated that you would have hoped that he would have accepted your knees!" ”
How, do these passages feel like they have seen each other? By the way, is it very similar to the feeling of our current big v or celebrity brushing Weibo? Lin Xinru put a few photos of eating cake on Weibo, and the fans below went crazy; Wang Sicong put a watch on his dog on Weibo with a love crazy 7, and the comments were forwarded tens of thousands...
A few words, are eye-catching artifacts, just a few words, concise and concise, but can absorb countless powder.
Therefore, I would like to say that Liu Yiqing may be a scribbler, he is the ancestor of the Microblog body, he is a master of playing self-media! And he did play with the grades to a high level, otherwise the book would not have been so widely circulated.
"The New Language of the World" was organized by Liu Yiqing to write a group of literati at that time, the content is mainly to record the anecdotes and Xuanyan Qing talks of famous Wei and Jin celebrities, it can also be said that this is a collection of stories recording the style of Wei and Jin, a representative work of "note novels" in the Southern and Northern Dynasties of Wei and Jin in China, and the earliest collection of literary and intellectual novels in China. It originally had eight volumes, and only 3 volumes exist, which is a bit of a pity. The present biography is composed of three volumes, including virtue, speech, political affairs, literature, fangzheng, and yaliang, with a total of more than 1,000 articles, describing the anecdotes of celebrities and nobles from the end of the Han Dynasty to the Liu Song Dynasty, mainly for commenting on relevant characters, talking about xuanyan and witty responses. The "New Language of the World" is an excellent historical material for studying the wind and currents of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Among them, the various activities of the Wei and Jin celebrities, such as qing talk and character questions, various personality characteristics such as Qiyi, Ren Zhi, Jian Arrogance, various pursuits of life, and various hobbies, are vividly described. Looking at the whole book, we can get group portraits of several generations of scholars in the Wei and Jin dynasties. Through these characters, we can further understand the fashion of the upper class society of that era.
There are more than 1,500 characters involved in the New Language of the World, including the main figures of the Wei and Jin dynasties, whether emperors, generals, hermits or monks. Its description of the characters is some emphasis on the shape, some on the learning, some on the psychology, but all concentrated on one point, that is, the emphasis on the performance of the characteristics of the characters, through the unique speech and demeanor to write out the unique character of the unique characters, so that it is vivid, vivid, and jumping on the paper.
Lu Xun once praised the "New Language of the World" as "remembering words is Xuanyuan cold, and remembering deeds is high and simple and magnificent".
The reason why Liu Yiqing was able to open up so many celebrities on his "Weibo" was inseparable from his origin. Just like the reason why Wang Sicong shelled this and that on Weibo, it is inseparable from his background, there is a father who can't move "a small goal is a hundred million", and who else he does not dare to tear it up!
Portrait of Liu Yiqing
Liu Yiqing is actually a second-generation official, and it should be said that he is much better than Wang Sicong. He was the nephew of Emperor Wu of Song, Liu Yu, and a relative of the standard emperor, who attacked the King of Linchuan, and Liu Yu was very kind to him. In 424, Emperor Wen of Song ascended the throne, and as soon as he ascended the throne, he killed Xu Xianzhi, Fu Liang, Xie Han, and other supporters. Emperor Wen of Song was jealous and fierce, and because he was afraid of repeating the tragedy of emperor Shao's execution, he strictly controlled and killed a large number of meritorious and clan members Liu Yiqing himself because of his sympathy for the degraded official Wang Yikang.
In this context, Liu Yiqing had to be doubly cautious to avoid disaster. Later, Liu Yiqing took the opportunity to leave the capital and stay away from the land of right and wrong. Liu Yiqing ran to Jingzhou to do a little assassination history, even if he was far away from the capital, he was still like a bird with a frightened bow, and his heart was palpitating. He was under the rule of Liu Yilong, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, who was suspicious and suspicious of the kings of the clan and had no intention of playing politics, so he gathered a group of literary scholars and ran the self-media marketing number "The New Language of the World", sent love to the history of literature, and edited this book of Qing Tan.
Maybe Liu Yiqing himself did not expect that he played this game, actually played out hundreds of millions of attention and fans, you still do not disagree, the millennium has passed, readers who have seen "The World Speaks New Language", should not be counted in hundreds of millions?
