Chapter 280: Chapter 280 Poetry

Chapter 280: Chapter 280 PoetryWhen the Imperial Guards arrived at Dexin Garden, they were told that Huaiqing had just finished sword training and was taking a bath, so Xu Qi'an was asked to wait outside.

Hey, did he deliberately take a bath because he heard that I was coming... Xu Qi'an was talking nonsense in his heart.

So he waited outside Dexin Garden for two quarters of an hour, and the little palace maid in a light yellow palace skirt stepped over the threshold and said softly: "Lord Xu, His Highness invites you."

Entering Yayuan, I saw Huaiqing, who had washed herself clean, in the front hall of the reception. Her beautiful face was flushed with two blushes, and her eyes were shining.

She had a little more feminine charm and less noble and cold.

It felt like a jade beauty coming to life.

That's how feminine she is. She's always cold and noble, and she's acting like a princess. She's not cute at all... Xu Qian'an clasped his fists:

"I'm here to see your Highness."

Huaiqing asked the maid to serve tea, and her voice was cold and pleasant: "Why did Lord Xu come to see me?"

"My cousin won the first prize, but he was born in Yunlu Academy, and I'm worried about his future." Xu Qian'an asked sincerely:

"Does your Highness have any good ideas?"

If you can't figure out something, it's best to ask a smart person. You have to learn to use all the tools reasonably. If the princess doesn't have an idea, she'll ask Wei Yuan.

Huaiqing's eyes flickered, and she took a sip of tea. She immediately understood what Xu Qian'an meant. This was because she didn't want Xu Cijiu to be branded as a "eunuch party". A cunning rabbit has three burrows, and a smart person will never bet all his chips on one place.

Although Xu Ningyan is a warrior, he is extremely smart... Huaiqing smiled: "You have been to Qingzhou, how much do you know about it?"

"The government is clean and honest, and Ziyang Jushi has governed Qingzhou in an orderly manner..."

At this point, Xu Qian'an suddenly understood what Huaiqing meant. Qingzhou is now ruled by Ziyang Jushi. With him in charge of Qingzhou, if the students of Yunlu Academy go to Qingzhou to work, they can definitely show their talents and not be suppressed.

"Qingzhou is the pure land opened up by Yunlu Academy for Confucian students." The princess did not keep it a secret.

This... I only have this one brother who has been passed down from generation to generation, and I can't bear to let him go to Qingzhou. Brother, I am worried about you!

Xu Qian'an exhaled: "I understand."

Forget it, let Erlang stay in the capital first, and then find a way later. Maybe he can find a backer himself.

"By the way, I wonder if Your Highness is interested in the dialogue book?" Xu Qian'an showed his true colors.

"I never read those things."

Princess Huaiqing's arrogant tone was like a female doctor saying: Online literature? Oh, I never read that kind of stuff!

"I found a good book. Your Highness can read it when you are free... Oh, please keep it a secret for me." Xu Qi'an took out "The Domineering Lady Falls in Love with Me" from his arms and put it on the table.

Huaiqing didn't even read it, but just nodded politely.

After sending Xu Qi'an away, she was about to tell the maid to put it away and deal with it herself. When her eyes swept across the cover, her eyes suddenly stopped.

The Domineering Lady Falls in Love with Me... Lady?!

It turned out to be such a rebellious title... Huaiqing immediately became interested. Since she had nothing to do, it didn't matter if she took a few glances.

So she sat down again and put away the book with a rebellious name.

The story tells about a scholar who strayed into the demon world. He was talented and knowledgeable. But the residents of the demon world wanted to eat the scholar, so they set up a frying pan to fry him.

At this time, the Queen appeared. The Queen was the only scholar in the demon world, with super high wisdom and culture. She saved the scholar and kept him in her harem. The two of them recited poems and talked about the past and the present.

In the process, the Queen fully demonstrated her domineering and cold style, but she cared about the scholar in her heart, but she didn't know how to show it. Her favorite catchphrase was: Man, you are playing with fire.

Huaiqing had never seen such an interesting thing. It didn't have any depth, and she couldn't learn any knowledge. It was as different as the obscure ancient books she loved to read.

But, I don't know why, it was just some trivial things in life, boring conversations, but it seemed to have a special magic.

It made Huaiqing want to see all kinds of Queen's... show off in front of people?!

Yes, it was show off in front of people.

She trampled men under her feet, kept men in the harem, and treated men with a domineering and cold attitude, but even such a cold queen had tenderness in her heart.

And the scholar was obedient to the queen and always thought about her. He would also get

angry and jealous because the queen drank with the generals of the demon world.

Unknowingly, it was dusk, and she had read for more than two hours.

Huaiqing discovered another advantage of this book, it, it does not require thinking.

It's fun.

After the fun, Huaiqing suddenly felt angry. What did I do?

I actually read such a book with no nutrition and no knowledge for two hours?! What's the difference between this and wasting life, how can you waste time and energy on such a

nutritious thing.

She felt deeply guilty for this.

"It's just an idle book..."

Huaiqing threw the book aside with disdain, got up and left the reception room. A few minutes later, she returned and hid the book in her sleeve and took it away.

It was not for reviewing it again at night, but because this book could not be seen by others, just like those secret books in the boudoir, which could not be seen by the light.

.......

At the same time, in Shaoyin Garden, Lin'an was immersed in "Love God".

"So, it turns out that love between men and women is like this... Ah, how can a dog slave show

this kind of thing to me."

Lin'an rolled on the bed, blushing. When she saw the 5,000-word content of Fairy Zixia and

Long Aotian rolling on the sheets, she shouted: Hate, hate.

She read it word by word and imagined the scene in her mind.

Then she felt her body burning hot, her legs rubbed from time to time, her round face was as

red as a ripe apple, her peach blossom eyes were charming, and after being covered with a layer of mist, they looked more charming and seductive.

However, the story of love between men and women is just an embellishment, and the core of the story is the love story of Fairy Zixia and Long Aotian.

The first two-thirds are sweet love, and the last one-third is a knife.

Seeing Long Aotian being skinned and boned, and being sent to reincarnation as a beast for

eternity, while Fairy Zixia was imprisoned in Guanghan Palace forever, Lin'an found that the

pillow was wet.

She sniffed and said angrily: "Why is there nothing down there? Dog slave, why is there nothing down there?"

After cursing indignantly, she called the palace maid in and said: "I want to take a bath, prepare hot water."

The palace maid was surprised and said: "It's almost time for dinner, why take a bath at this

time?"

Bian Bian suddenly became angry and said: "Go if I tell you to."

Soon, the hot water was boiled, and the palace maid adjusted the water temperature and

served Lin'an to take a bath.

Her white body was soaked in the water, with petals floating on the water, revealing her round and thin jade shoulders and a pair of delicate collarbones.

"Tell me, among the guards around me, which one is the most handsome, talented,

interesting, and loyal to me?" Lin'an suddenly asked.

"They are all very loyal. As for interesting and talented, I don't know. However, if it is not a

guard, I have someone in mind."

"Who is it!" Bian Bian asked immediately.

"It is Lord Xu. Lord Xu is handsome, talented and interesting. He often makes you happy. Although he is not a guard, he is your confidant. Moreover, he is not a scholar, but a night watchman. He can barely be considered a guard."

Lin'an bit her lip and gently moved the petals. The petals spread out. She saw her face vaguely reflected in the rippling water. She looked beautiful, her face was flushed, and she seemed a

little shy.

Imperial City, Prince's Palace!

In the study of Prime Minister Wang Zhenwen, the golden red sunset shone in from the lattice window. After reviewing the memorials, the fifty-year-old Prime Minister Wang swept them

all into the corner.

However, he spread out a piece of rice paper, put a paperweight on it, and picked up a pen to

write... At this time, Miss Wang came in with a bowl of wolfberry and ginseng soup. Prime Minister Wang ignored her and took advantage of the spirit in his chest to write.

A golden cup of clear wine costs ten thousand, and a jade plate of delicacies costs ten

thousand.

..... S~eaʀᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

It is difficult to travel, it is difficult to travel, there are many forks in the road, where are they

now.

There will be a time to ride the wind and waves, and set sail to cross the sea.

Miss Wang put down the ginseng soup, came over to take a look, and couldn't take her eyes off

for a long time, muttering: "Dad, you wrote a masterpiece that will be handed down from

generation to generation.

"When your poem comes out, the whole court will be shocked."

As a female intellectual, she still has the ability to appreciate. Miss Wang was impressed by

the spirit in this poem.

Wang Shoufu shook his head, took a sip of ginseng tea, and exhaled comfortably: "This is not

written by me, but by the new champion. Didn't you go to the Imperial Examination Hall today? Didn't you see him?

"It is said that he is a handsome man with a rare appearance."

"My daughter didn't see him. I just joined in the fun." Miss Wang denied it flatly, looking at

the table frequently.

"Back then, I spent a lot of effort to bring poetry back to the imperial examination, and there

were many obstacles."

Wang Shoufu pointed his finger at the paper, clapping his hands, and smiled happily: "Now

that such a good work has been produced, I am proud of my father. I am worthy of the scholars

in the world and the predecessors, and I have not let the treasure of poetry completely

decline."

After the Xingbang came out, Xu Xinnian's "The Road is Hard" was spread among the examiners, and those who heard it applauded and their blood boiled.

After a few days of preparation, this poem will spread throughout the capital and be widely

sung.

"I heard that the champion is a student of Yunlu Academy." Miss Wang said "inadvertently". Wang Shoufu pondered for a moment and sighed: "What a pity."

The court officials excluded the scholars of Yunlu Academy. As the chief minister, he was a

role model for the civil officials and could not afford to regress in this regard.

The more talented Xu Xinnian was, the more vigilant Wang Shoufu was and the less likely he

would use him.

"Dad!"

While helping to pack up the memorials, Miss Wang said: "My daughter wants to hold a

literary gathering in the mansion and invite famous scholars in the capital to participate. It can be convened in your name."

The initiator of the literary gathering must be a person of high moral character and prestige, and Miss Wang did not have this qualification. However, she had held many literary gatherings in the mansion, all of which were convened in the name of Wang Shoufu.

It was reasonable to hold a literary gathering just after the Spring Examination.

Wang Shoufu nodded and said: "Okay."

Qingyun Mountain, Yunlu Academy

In the afterglow of the setting sun, a horse galloped on the official road, raising a cloud of

dust.

The horse stopped at the foot of the mountain, and the student in a Confucian robe jumped off

the horse, holding a list in his hand, and ran quickly to the top of the mountain.

"Good news, good news..."

He shouted while running wildly, and soon entered the academy. Along the way, students kept coming out to check and ask questions, but the student who

reported the news ignored them all and went straight to the study of the great Confucian Zhang Shen.

Zhang Shen, who heard the noise, had been waiting outside the study, looking at the student who reported the news with a calm face.

"A scholar should be calm, and neither great joy nor great sorrow can shake his mind."

After giving this reminder, Zhang Shen smiled: "From your expression, I think all the students who participated in the Spring Examination have won the title of Gongshi." "Sir, more than Gongshi." The student who reported the news shouted excitedly: "Xu Cijiu

won the title of Huiyuan."

Zhang Shen thought he had heard it wrong, and said in a deep voice: "Huiyuan?!" The student who reported the news nodded vigorously, "This is the list of students from the academy nominated by the Xingbang, Xu Cijiu is indeed Huiyuan, absolutely true."

Zhang Shen excitedly grabbed the list, which had the names and rankings of the students from

the academy who participated in the Spring Examination. At the front was Xu Cijiu, the first place, Huiyuan.

Zhang Shen looked at the list for a long time, and suddenly "wowed", shouting: "Dean, Chen

Tai, Li Mubai... My student won the title of Huiyuan, my student won the title of Huiyuan."

The student who reported the news was stunned.

Soon, the courtyard Zhao Shou and two great scholars were alarmed, and appeared outside Zhang Shen's study room with bragging skills, ignoring the distance.

The gray-haired, slovenly dean Zhao Shou asked first: "Really? Which student won the first

prize?"

"Xu Cijiu!"

Zhang Shen said proudly.

Zhao Shou frowned, thought about it, and suddenly said: "Is it the student who never lost a

quarrel?"

"..... This shows that he has unparalleled eloquence." Zhang Shen said.

"Congratulations!"

Li Mubai and Chen Tai were both happy and sour.

The students of Yunlu Academy won the first prize, so they were naturally happy. Every

gentleman in the academy would be happy, and even danced and got drunk. But it didn't stop them from being sour, because Xu Cijiu was Zhang Shen's student.

Dean Zhao Shou frowned and said, "Logically speaking, he shouldn't be the champion. What did Cijiu do?" Judging from the situation in previous years' examinations, there must be cheating in this session. Xu Cijiu is a student of Yunlu Academy, so he has no right to cheat. But if it is said that it is all due to strength, it seems a bit far-fetched. Zhang Shen restrained his joy and said, "Hmm", "Cijiu's questions and answers on the

classics are all top choices, but if you want to say that he is brilliant, he is still a little short of

it."

But if he is not brilliant, how can at least two of the three supervisors support him? When he heard the student's message just now, he even suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Seeing that the student who reported the news was still there, Li Mubai waved his hand, called him over, and asked, "Is there any news from the capital?" Originally, it was just a casual question, but the student who reported the news nodded

immediately, "Yes, after copying the Xingbang, the student also felt that Xu Cijiu's first place was a little unusual, so he invited a examiner to have a meal. "The 'meal money' is 15 taels, and I'm just going to ask the academy to reimburse it." Several great scholars nodded. The students trained by Yunlu Academy are all very capable in

doing things, and they are not pedantic and rigid.

After the student who reported the news finished speaking, he took out a piece of paper from

his arms and said, "I heard from that adult that Xu Cijiu wrote a poem in the third round, which was highly praised by the Dongge University Scholar. The other examiners were also very convinced, and his first two exams had excellent results, so he became the first place."

Poem?

Several great scholars looked at each other.
