Li Yuntian didn't expect that Liu Zhen would dare to declare war on him in public, and wanted to win back a city in terms of literary talent, which made him secretly can't help but shake his head, it seems that Liu Zhen is still too young to want to compete with herself, did she forget that this move is undoubtedly to provoke herself in public, the deputy envoy of the Ming Dynasty?

"Presumptuous, you are just a prostitute, Lord Liu is an envoy of the Celestial Empire, how can you be taught?" Sure enough, Huang Xi's face sank when he heard this, and he reprimanded Liu Zhen in a deep voice, he found that Liu Zhen was indeed bold enough to dare to do such an outrageous thing, you must know that Li Yuntian is a military attaché, and it is natural to see how literary he is.

With Huang Xi's reprimand, the scene suddenly became silent, and people looked over one after another, looking at Li Yuntian with worried expressions, for fear that Li Yuntian would turn his face.

Liu Zhen was not frightened by Huang Xi, although he quickly bowed down to Li Yuntian to ask for guilt, but his eyes looked quite unconvinced.

"Zuo Yizheng, since Miss Liu asked the envoy for advice, then the envoy might as well have a discussion with him to help everyone's drinking." Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene became a little tense, Li Yuntian smiled slightly and said to Huang Xi disapprovingly.

Saying that, Li Yuntian looked at Liu Zhen, I am afraid that Liu Zhen would never have thought that the Ming envoy standing in front of her was a dignified scholar of Zuo Chunfang in Daming, which was enough to deal with her challenge.

"I'm not going to thank Lord Liu yet." Huang Xi immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly said in a deep voice to Liu Zhen, who was standing there with his head bowed.

"Little girl, Master Xie, instructed." Liu Zhen thought that Li Yuntian would be annoyed and angry, but he didn't expect that he would want to learn from him, so he saluted Li Yuntian in some surprise.

"The ancient temple is bleak and beside the ditch, and the sunset arbor makes people sad. The smoke and haze snub the dream of the remnant monk, and the years break the top of the tower. Yellow phoenix feathers return to flying birds, azaleas bloom cattle and sheep. Shensong remembers the prosperous days of virtue, but it is like autumn now. ”

Li Yuntian smiled, got up and walked to the middle of the field, walking back and forth like Liu Zhen, and then opened his mouth and groaned in a deep voice.

"Shensong remembers the prosperous days of virtue, how do you mean that spring is like autumn now!"

Liu Zhen was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help muttering to herself, she could deeply feel the depression and loneliness in the poem, spring is like autumn, things are already people, and the poetry is full of sadness.

Huang Xi and Li Yao couldn't help but glance at each other, their eyes showed a look of surprise, the two of them never imagined that Li Yuntian would have this hand, and he would make such a masterpiece in an instant.

The two classes of magnates present were talking about Li Yuntian's poems one after another, who would have thought that Li Yuntian would have such a literary talent and be able to use such a far-reaching poem to counter Liu Zhen's provocation.

"The adults are highly talented, and the little girls have been taught." After the initial consternation, Liu Zhen quickly came back to her senses, although Li Yuntian's poem was on par with hers, it was enough to show Li Yuntian's talent, which made her suddenly restrain her arrogance and bow to Li Yuntian solemnly.

"Miss Liu is brilliantly written, worthy of being a female Chinese master." Li Yuntian praised Liu Zhen with a smile, got up and returned to his seat.

"The great man is both civil and military, worthy of being an envoy of the Heavenly Empire, come, everyone salutes the adult." Huang Xi raised his wine glass with a smile and said to everyone at the scene, he attached a little more importance to Li Yuntian in his heart, and felt that Li Yuntian was different from those previous Ming envoys, and his body was shrouded in a layer of mystery that was indescribable.

"To your lordship!" When the two elites present heard this, they raised their wine glasses to Li Yuntian one after another, and the atmosphere at the scene became warm again.

Liu Zhen glanced at Li Yuntian, who was chatting and laughing with Huang Xi and Li Yao, with a complicated expression, and bowed and retreated, she originally despised Li Yuntian in her heart, but now she had to be in awe, it was obvious that Li Yuntian's appearance was far beyond her expectations.

"Lord Liu, what do you think of Liu Zhen?" After the banquet, Li Yuntian was sent away by Huang Xi and Li Yao and others, and suddenly asked while Huang Xi was talking and laughing at the door.

"I didn't expect North Korea to have such a beautiful woman." Li Yuntian pondered for a moment and replied with a smile.

"In that case, it's better for her to serve the adults' daily life in Seoul." Huang Xi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile.

"The kindness of Zuo Yizheng has been understood, and Miss Liu is like a white lotus in the eyes of the envoy, which can only be viewed from a distance and cannot be blasphemed." Li Yuntian had already guessed that Huang Xi was playing with this idea, so he shook his head with a smile and politely rejected his kindness.

"Liu Zhen is in the teaching workshop in the city, and the adults can send someone to pass her on at any time if necessary." Huang Xi suddenly felt a little surprised when he heard this, and then laughed, he didn't expect Li Yuntian to have pity for Liu Zhen.

When Li Yuntian and Huang Xi were talking and laughing, Liu Zhen was waiting in a room of the brothel nervously, her expression was extremely gloomy, it seemed that she was unable to escape tonight, and she was bound to sleep with the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, and she had no power to resist in front of such a high-ranking official as Huang Xi.

Besides, isn't it because she's already in the church to serve men?

"Liu Zhen, you can go back and rest, you have been resting in the workshop these days, don't go anywhere." Just when Liu Zhen was sad there, an official walked in and said to her, and then waved to the person behind him, "This is a reward from Lord Zuo Xiang." ”

Following the official's gesture, an attendant walked in with two brocade cloths in his hand and placed them on the table in front of Yoo Jin, and then the two left the room.

Seeing this, several prostitutes in the room hurriedly surrounded them, and caressed the two brocade cloths, which were obviously the best fabrics on the market, and the price was very high.

Liu Zhen's eyes couldn't help but reveal a look of confusion, looking at the back of the official leaving with some disbelief, she thought that Li Yuntian was going to let her sleep at night, but Li Yuntian actually left like this, which made her feel a trace of inexplicable loss in her heart.

"My lord, the lowly position has been found out, Yoo Jin's father was originally a county magistrate in Gyeonggi Left Province, and ten years ago he was exiled to Jeju Island because he was involved in a corruption case, and the six-year-old Liu Zhen and his mother were also demoted to the church as prostitutes, and they were vigorously cultivated by the prime minister of Gyeonggi Left Daoist Workshop, and they were sent to the Seoul Church not long ago, and Zuo Yizheng spent a lot of money to charter it."

Two days later, when Li Yuntian was explaining to Lei Ting in the Taiping Pavilion about the matter of taking the Ming army's military rations, a guard walked into the room, saluted the two of them, and said in a deep voice that he had been ordered to inquire about Liu Zhen's background.

"Xianggong, it seems that she is also a hard-working person." Hearing this, Lei Ting couldn't help but say to Li Yuntian, as a woman, she was very sympathetic to Liu Zhen's experience, and the kind of days when she was trained in the teaching workshop since she was a child were not comfortable.

"Since she danced to Xianggong last night, then Xianggong will help her get out of prostitution." Li Yuntian smiled slightly, his baron Lei Ting seemed to have a good impression of Liu Zhen, so he decided to send a favor, it was easy for him to let Liu Zhen leave the sect and regain his freedom.

"Xianggong, in fact, the concubine likes her very much, I feel that she is a little similar to the concubine when she was young, willful and stubborn, and she doesn't know how thick the sky is." Lei Ting also laughed, she did have a good impression of Liu Zhen, and she saw the shadow of her when she ran away from marriage from Liu Zhen's behavior of challenging Li Yuntian that night.

"Xianggong was still thinking about how to play the military rations well just now, but now he has a good idea." Li Yuntian also thought of Lei Ting pulling him to "elope" back then, so he groaned, leaned over with a smile and whispered in Lei Ting's ear, and Lei Ting nodded from time to time.

The next night, the Seoul workshop.

The Seoul Workshop is the largest government-run workshop in North Korea, and it is affiliated with the Reicho under the Parliamentary Office, and the geisha in it all have official origins.

Since geisha are lowly statuses, although many geisha are both beautiful and artistic, and are deeply favored by those scholars and nobles, they cannot become the wives of scholars and nobles, and can only be accepted as concubines.

Moreover, according to the Korean mother's law, the geisha's untouchable status will be passed on to the children born to him, so no matter how prominent the geisha becomes the concubine of the official position, the children born can only be untouchable, unless they can meet the grace of the king of Joseon to get out of the untouchable, but this is very difficult, the king of Joseon is the lord of a country, how can he casually show favor to those untouchables?

Since the geisha of the Seoul Jiaofang are the best in Korea, the dignitaries and nobles of Seoul like to go there for recreation, and Huang Xi was here to feast Li Yuntian last time.

In the past few days, the most popular in the Seoul Workshop is Liu Zhen, Liu Zhen not only danced a sword for Li Yuntian a few days ago, but also wrote a poem with Li Yuntian, and became famous for a while, with a reputation of both color and art, which made Seoul's high-ranking officials and magnates flock to it.

Many nobles of the two classes wanted to have a time with Liu Zhenchun, but when they learned that Huang Xi had already taken Liu Zhen under the influence of Zuo Yizheng, Liu Zhen could only give up after he didn't sell his art now, and Huang Xi was not something they could afford to provoke.

Who would have thought that Liu Zhen, who had only been in Seoul for a month, became popular because of Li Yuntian, and the limelight had overshadowed them and became the most famous geisha in Seoul.

Just when those geisha were privately discussing whether to teach Liu Zhen a lesson, the head of the workshop passed down the message that they would receive the messenger from the Ming Dynasty at night, and let those red-card geisha give Liu Zhen a hand to cooperate with Liu Zhen to dance.

The head of the sect knew that the red-card geisha had opinions about Liu Zhen, so he specially instructed that the Ming envoy was the guest of honor of the king of Joseon, and this time there was also Li Yao, the king of Shouyang, as an accompaniment, and he must not go on a business trip, otherwise he will be severely punished.

Li Yuntian's banquet Li Yao naturally has his intentions, Li Jin is not only the second son of the king of Joseon, but also young and promising, which can be described as ambitious, so in order to compete for the position of the prince, he will definitely get close to the Ming Dynasty and use the power of the Ming Dynasty to become the prince of the Korean state.

For Li Yuntian's banquet, Li Jin was naturally happy to go, and the two of them chatted and laughed during the banquet, because the upper nobles of the Korean country had to learn the Ming language, so there was no obstacle for the two to communicate.

After Liu Zhen performed a few dances, he sat next to Li Yuntian, poured him wine and food, and honestly served Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian's swordsmanship and literary talent had already impressed her, so that she did not have the slightest contempt.

"Envoy, the villain has grievances to be avenged, please let the adults call the shots for the little ones." In the middle of the banquet, just as Li Yuntian was gushing about the wealth and prosperity of the south of the Ming River to Li Yao, a voice suddenly came from outside the door, shouting loudly in Korean.

Hearing this, the corners of Li Yuntian's mouth couldn't help but reveal a subtle smile, tonight's good show is finally going to be staged.

Liu Zhen, who listened to Li Yuntian's description of the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River with great interest, was suddenly stunned, and couldn't help but look out the door in surprise, not knowing what was going on in the courtyard.
