Chapter 37: Persuasion of Poetry
With the arrival of the big people, the ladies in skirts brought drinks and delicacies.
Zheng ......
The sound of a piano came from behind the bead curtain, attracting everyone's attention.
Behind the beaded curtain sat a beautiful woman, wearing a scarf on her face, with a graceful figure, wearing a white floor-length dress, her jet-black hair tied up with a light blue ribbon, and a few strands of hair fell mischievously on her shoulders, lining the skin that could be broken by her fingers even whiter.
The sound of the piano seems to turn into a warm current and pour into the hearts of the students, which makes people quickly addicted to it.
Lin Haoran drank a little wine, and always thought that the Chinese guqin was inferior to the piano, but now it seems that this idea is too taken for granted, and it depends on who is playing.
The sound of this piano is "like a big bead and a small bead falling on a jade plate", and the notes have infinite charm, which immediately made him feel a little drunk, and he sat at the table and listened quietly.
"This is Tianyinye!"
"Miss Mulan's piano sound is really unparalleled in the world!"
"It's worthy of being the top brand of Yihong Courtyard, but I heard that it is going to be poached!"
……
At the end of the song, everyone sighed, but some people said a rumor with schadenfreude.
The top brand of Yihong Courtyard?
Lin Haoran heard that others revealed the identity of the woman, and he felt a little regretful in his heart, but he seemed to have a little bit of joy.
But then I thought about it, and I thought that this restaurant would do business.
Although it was said that it was free to bear all the expenses of the Pan Xianshi Club, it not only advertised for the restaurant, but also helped Yihong Courtyard to do another publicity.
After the song, the maids put snow-white rice paper in front of the students, and then gave pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
This is a poetry meeting after all, and the literary fight is the theme of this time.
Everyone is holding back a lot of energy in their hearts, where the name comes from, and it is naturally in this kind of poetry meeting. Especially now that there is Master Xuezheng present, and there is the top Mulan girl from Yihong Courtyard watching, it is even more important to win fame.
Lin Haoran's movements were very neat, and with a splash of ink on his sleeve, he wrote a note, then picked it up and blew it with his mouth.
Gu Qingfeng probed over curiously, and pouted, because it read: "My Fair Lady and Gentleman, is it okay?" But he kindly persuaded: "Do you know how difficult it is to meet a Mulan girl?" As far as you can make an appointment with these two sentences, I will cut off my head and kick you as a ball! ”
Lin Haoran insisted on going his own way, beckoned a waiter, and asked her to send the note over.
Chen Xuezheng became the protagonist of the banquet, pinching his beard and brushing his beard, looking quite interested.
He also wanted to see the level of these juniors, to see if they could be as amazing as last year, and there would be a genius like Jiang Yuebai. However, he knew that it was probably difficult, and Jiang Yuebai's and other wonders were rare in a hundred years.
Some scholars successively handed over the poems they had written to the beautiful women, and the women handed the poems to the old man who was invited to copy them, and then took a copy and walked on the stage to recite it.
Chen Xuezheng and others occasionally commented, and the students who were commented on were overjoyed, and got up and made a long salute to the opposite side.
The atmosphere of the poetry meeting was very harmonious, and a poetry exchange meeting was carried out in an orderly manner.
"In the case of Zheng Shijie, I heard my cousin say in the past, your poems have a unique way, and it is rare to gather together today, why not write a poem and let me open my eyes?"
Zheng Shijie led a few scholars to Lin Haoran's table, with a thick smile on his face, and his eyes naturally couldn't hide a kind of schadenfreude.
Although poetry and writing do not play a very big role in the imperial examination, if this problem is magnified, especially in front of Lord Xuezheng, then Lin Haoran will become a laughing stock.
This blow is not only to Lin Haoran, but also to the students in the entire Shicheng County. A nerd who can't even write poetry well, but he took the head of Shicheng County, isn't this the general in the short row?
If this reputation is bad, even if Lord Fuzun doesn't deliberately take care of them, I'm afraid he won't give too many children in Shicheng.
It is precisely because of this that Zheng Shijie has been inquiring about Lin Haoran a lot these days, and slowly learned more about the truth.
The song "Outside the Long Pavilion, by the Ancient Road, a line of white cranes on the blue sky" Not to mention, this thing is a complete nerd, and the first time he was at a loss in the face of the interception question, and then he fell asleep in the examination room.
If it weren't for the Qingshan monk, this person would never have been able to get the case.
Lin Haoran received a note from the waiting girl, on which was a beautiful small block font "No appointment", and he was depressed, but Zheng Shijie came over, so he waved his hand and said: "I'm not in the mood!" ”
"Huh...... This is ridiculous, don't you dare? ”
"In this situation, with Master Xuezheng here, how can you not be in the mood?"
"I drank the wine and ate the food well, but when it came to composing poetry, I couldn't write it?"
……
The few students who followed Zheng Shijie were counted, and the ability of "persuading poetry" was indeed high, not only lifting the Xuezheng people out, but also hiding needles in the cotton.
The sound here was not small, and it suddenly became the focus of the entire venue, and Chen Xuezheng and others on the opposite side also looked at this side.
Chen Xuezheng took the poem sent by a scholar himself, and asked: "Who is he?" ”
"He is the head of our Shicheng County!" The scholar gave up his hand, and his words were full of sarcasm.
"It turned out to be the head of the Changting case!" But it was an old man who laughed.
"I'm afraid that if Jiang Yuebai comes out of Shicheng, there will be no one left!" The other laughed in the same way.
The regional struggle of the younger generation actually originated from the older generation, so these respected old people and people all have a sense of regional superiority. Now that Shicheng is in decline, he wants to suppress it.
The old man in plain clothes who had been silent next to him saw all this in his eyes, but he picked up his wine glass, a little surprised, this is just a microcosm of the current Da Ming Shilin.
"Case Chief Lin, you are the head of our Shicheng County, it is better to compose a poem here on behalf of me, so that Master Xuezheng can give you advice!" The scholar surnamed Zheng, who was standing in front of Chen Xuezheng's case, said loudly to Lin Haoran over there, quite suspicious of being a fox and a tiger.
Traitor!
Scum!
This product is absolutely a spy!
……
When they heard this, the students on Shicheng's side cursed in their hearts, and they couldn't wait to rush up and step on this fellow villager who was related to Su Shijie, and vaguely guessed that this person must be a driven pawn.
"I can't bear it anymore, use my poem to shock them!" Gu Qingfeng suppressed his voice and said angrily.
Lin Haoran glanced at him, daring to love this is the biggest traitor in Shicheng, but he shook his head and sighed silently.
Just when everyone thought that he couldn't hold it back and wanted to hold the pen to compose a poem, they saw his hand stretched out to a fat crab on the plate, and suddenly fell countless eyeballs.
This...... Foodie!
