Chapter 269: Chapter 269, debunking Zhou Shihui

During the mid-autumn Festival, the moon-viewing banquet invited all the lords and the families of the high officials. The royal family also expressed their apology and sent the invitations to a few famous scholars in Qingming Academy. These scholars were quite talented and had quite a status in the literary world. Prince Huai had gone to entertain and rope in quite a few people these two days. After all, marquis an Yuan’s manor had chosen to marry Princess Fu Lu, which also showed the attitude of the eastern palace. Xie Xiangxiang’s corpse was cold. Even when the scholars of the Qing Ming Academy came to the Imperial Palace, they were all dressed in white. The Zhou family no longer had the position of Lord, but in the end, the Zhou family’s official position had not been removed. There was the Empress’family, but it was no longer as high as it used to be. Du Du, Zhou Qing and the mother and daughter were still in high positions. This could not help but cause everyone to be filled with guesses. The Hui Lin Emperor spoke for a long time about the reunion night of the mid-autumn Festival before the mid-autumn Festival banquet began. Lu Chen and Qiao Jinniang really did not expect that the Snowy Mountains would not be opened until the morning of the mid-autumn Festival. Qiao Jinniang even missed the afternoon to celebrate Xi’er’s birthday. As soon as they returned to Luoyang, the two of them changed into the formal clothes of the palace banquet in the carriage. When they reached the palace, the banquet had already begun. The two of them arrived late. Qiao Jinniang was accompanied by a young lady, which made all the officials curious about her identity. When Qiu Yue first came to this palace banquet, she was so scared that her legs went soft. “I, Qiu Yue, pay my respects to your Majesty.” Qiao jinniang said, “Father, mother, this is layman Qiu Yue. Her writings have been widely spread in the world. When I met her, we were like old friends, so I specially brought her to the mid-autumn Palace banquet.” All the princes and Sons blushed when they heard layman Qiuyue. They could not believe that the writer of the book was a woman of such a young age. Empress Zhou said, “So it’s layman Qiuyue. Then let’s just get someone to add another position.” Nowadays, poetry was the most popular in Luoyang. During such a festival, there were students from Qingming Academy. It was inevitable that they had to do some poetry. Zhou Shihui stood up and said, “The Ancients said that it was to throw a brick to attract the jade. A minister’s daughter is not talented, so I dare to write a poem first.” “Miss Zhou is Zhou Qinghe’s only daughter. I think she must be very talented in poetry.” “That’s right, that’s right. I heard that when Miss Zhou entered Qingming Academy, she wrote that essay on the six kingdoms that even the teachers of the academy could not compare to!” Zhou Shihui looked at the Bright Moon in the sky with full confidence and said, “When will the bright moon appear? I ask the clear sky with wine. I wonder what year it is in the palace in the sky today.” “Good, it’s written very well!”The poem was only average, but there were many applause and cheers from below. “When will the bright moon appear? Let the wine ask the clear sky. Such a talented poet is rarely seen in the world.” Qiao Jinniang saw the strange expression on Qiu Yue’s face and asked, “What’s Wrong?” “This mother and daughter are too shameless. This poem is my favorite poet’s poem. It has been passed down through the ages, and they actually dare to steal it.” Qiu Yue whispered back to Qiao Jinniang. Qiao Jinniang stood up and said, “Princess Yuquan, are you sure that you wrote this poem?” Zhou shihui said, “Of course!” “But I’ve seen this poem in Layman Qiuyue’s study. It was written by her master.” Qiao jinniang said, “How did it become your poem without missing a single word?” Qiu Yue got up to Zhou Shihui did not finish the poem said out: “When there is a bright moon? The wine asked the blue sky. I do not know the palace in the sky, what year is this evening.”. I want to ride the wind back, but also afraid of jade buildings, the height of the cold. Dance to make clear the shadow, how like in the Human World? Zhu Pavilion, low qizhu, light sleepless. There should be no hate, why long to say goodbye when the circle? “People have joys and sorrows, and the Moon has ups and downs. This matter is difficult to complete in ancient times. “I hope that people will be together for a long time, and we will be together for thousands of miles.” “This poem was written by my ancestor, Su Zizhan, but it has never been spread to the world. How did it become Princess Yuquan’s poem?” Zhou Shihui looked at Zhou Qing and nervously. Zhou Qing and frowned at Qiu Yue. Among them, a scholar from Qingming Academy said, “It is inevitable that the first sentence of this poem is similar. Why don’t we ask Princess Yuquan to continue writing the following lines?” Zhou shihui trembled. She did not want to embarrass herself in front of everyone. She forced herself to say, “I was the one who wrote the poem that layman Qiuyue mentioned just now. It was just that when I wrote this poem earlier, someone had heard it. It is difficult to guarantee that layman Qiuyue’s ancestors only listened to my poem and copied it.” This poem was written by her mother. Her mother’s literary talent was so good that she could write so many famous sentences from the ages. It could not be the poems of other ancestors. Qiu Yue said, “I have never seen such a shameless person. My ancestors were the most talented people in the world, and the famous sentences they wrote could be passed down for thousands of years. If you say that you wrote it, when did you write this poem? Who Is there to testify?” Qiao Jinniang said to Zhou shihui, “If someone heard such a good poem, it would definitely be passed down. Why didn’t they hear it at first?” Zhou Shihui kept looking at Zhou Qing he. Zhou Qing said, “This poem was indeed written by My Shihui. It was written in a school in Yangzhou. It was also written by Shihui because he missed his parents. The school was filled with people who did not know how to write, so even if there was such a good poem, it did not spread. The people in the school can testify to this.” Qiao jinniang said, “Then why don’t we let Zhou Shihui write another poem that has never been shown to others?” Zhou Shihui remembered the few poems he had read in his mother’s study yesterday. He picked one randomly and recited it. “The wheel frost shadow turns the courtyard Wu, this Xi Ji man is a one-way couple…” Qiu Yue said, “Stop, the wheel frost shadow turns the courtyard Wu. How can this Xi Ji Man be a one-way couple? The rhythm doesn’t even work. It should be a one-way couple.”. “Also, Princess Yuquan, what a coincidence. This is a poem by another senior of Mine, Yan Shu.”. “The correct one should be a one-way couple, a one-way couple.”. “It’s not necessarily that I have no regrets, but the jade toad is cold and the osmanthus flowers are lonely…” Qiao jinniang smiled and said, “Princess Yuquan, just now I told you to say a poem that you have never shown to others. Why did it collide with Senior Qiuyue’s poem again? And your rhythm is not right!” Zhou Shihui looked at Zhou Qinghe. She had chosen the poems that her mother had written on the desk. She had asked her mother, and her mother had said that she had written them herself. Zhou Shihui did not doubt that he had to believe his mother, but he did not know that his mother had also used someone else’s poem? Or was it senior layman Qiuyue who had stolen his mother’s poem. Qiao Jinniang gently waved her fan and said, “I heard that the students of Qingming Academy praised Princess Yuquan’s essay just now. To steal someone else’s poem like this, isn’t it a little too shameful?” Eldest princess wen hua added, “The crown princess is right. Some people are proud to say that they can’t read a single word of Fu Lu, but Fu Lu is rarely sincere, unlike some people who actually take someone else’s poems for themselves.” Jing hua smiled and said, “I wonder if the essay that entered Qingming Academy was also written by someone else?” Zhou Shihui’s face flushed red. She had never been so ashamed. Her literary talent was not bad. In the end, when she was young, she was discovered by a Yangzhou nanny in an opera troupe and raised as a skinny horse. Her literary talent was not weak, but she was still far from entering Qingming Academy. It was her mother who wrote an article and handed it to her, allowing her to enter Qingming Academy. Her mother’s article was not considered a misappropriation. Now that Qiao Jinniang and the two princesses were ridiculing her, Zhou Shihui did not know what to do for a moment!
