Chapter 153: Competition
Qin Hanzhen's poems are basically decent, there are no mistakes in the rhyme, there are no more and no less, the rhetoric is quite exquisite, and the style is a little fresh, but the whole poem is more than neat, and the spirituality is insufficient, only those two sentences are a little amazing, which immediately raises the style of the whole poem to a higher level.
This is already a work that Qin Hanzhen has done his best to write. She has been reading books with her grandfather Qin Bai for so many years, and she has finally made some progress, and she feels quite satisfied, but she doesn't know what others think.
Cai Yuanzhen praised Qin Hanzhen several times, and also pointed out the two best-written poems, and praised them emphatically.
Yu Xinlan also nodded and said: "Although it is a little too white, but it also has the benefit of being white, and reading it in your mouth is like seeing a painting." ”
Qin Hanzhen hurriedly smiled: "When I wrote this poem, I was thinking of it as a painting in my mind, but it was actually a poem written according to the painting. Sister Yu is so powerful, you can see it at a glance!"
Yu Xinlan pursed her lips at her and smiled slightly, putting down her poem. Although Qin Hanzhen's poems are okay, much stronger than Qin Jinhua and Zhang Shu, they are not good works and cannot enter her eyes. She can boast two sentences, which is already very face-saving.
Pei Yin leaned over and looked at it twice, didn't say anything, just smiled and asked Yu Xinlan: "Where is your poem? You're writing a little slow today, I don't rush you, do you have to wait until the incense is burned before you write?"
Yu Xinlan is really not in a hurry to write poems today, and when the sweet fragrance of the dream burns, she only cares about enjoying the beautiful scenery of the plum forest outside the Xuan. Pei Yin finished writing the poem, turned around again, observed the progress of everyone's poems, and saw that she didn't move, so she urged her to write it quickly, and then she returned to the table to write the poem, and as soon as she put down the pen, she wrote the whole poem neatly and neatly. Qin Hanzhen glanced at it, but he only felt that she was making a draft, and he didn't care much. Anyway, no matter how slow Yu Xinlan is, she can write faster than her, as long as it is completed within the time limit, she finishes it earlier and finishes it later, what difference does it make?
Yu Xinlan just smiled faintly in the face of Pei Yin's question, glanced at her poem, but did not move. Cai Yuanzhen walked over and took the poem, Tang Su and Zhang Shu surrounded him, and Qin Hanzhen also pulled Qin Jinhua and leaned over to listen to the former read the poem.
Yu Xinlan is worthy of the name of a talented woman, and the poems she writes are as good as ever. Compared with Cai Yuanzhen's graceful atmosphere, Pei Yin's gorgeous craftsmanship, and Yu Xinlan's poems, the style is beautiful, the rhetoric is chic, the rhythm is beautiful, and the imagination is full of imagination, and there is an indescribable freshness and elegance. Qin Hanzhen listened, and only felt that her level was beyond all the ladies present, even Cai Yuanzhen was faintly inferior, which made people admire in their hearts.
Cai Yuanzhen also praised: "Sister Yu's poems are far above me. This time, I am willing to bow down, and the leader of today's poetry club should be Sister Yu. ”
Qin Hanzhen nodded again and again, and sighed: "It's really amazing...... I guess I won't be able to write such a poem in my life, right?" she felt that this level was not much worse than that of her grandfather Qin Bai.
Yu Xinlan pursed her lips and smiled slightly, looked at everyone, and saw that no one raised objections, so she bowed her chin and saluted: "The sisters have given in." Without a word of modesty, he claimed the leader.
She has confidence in herself, and she also has confidence in Cai Yuanzhen's vision. Her poems are so good, so why should she pretend to be humble and give up her position as the leader?
The leader was decided, and no one had any objections. Only Pei Yin said: "Actually, Sister Cai's poems are also very good." ”
Cai Yuanzhen said with a smile: "I also thought that my poems were good, but when I compared them with Sister Yu's poems, I was immediately compared." "I didn't mean to be unconvinced.
Even if she said so, how could others have anything else? At that moment, the women evaluated everyone's poems in order of merit and disadvantage, the first was naturally Yu Xinlan, the second was Cai Yuanzhen, Pei Yin was third, the fourth was Tang Su and Qin Hanzhen were tied, Qin Jinhua was the finale, and Zhang Shu was last.
Qin Hanzhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this result. She never expected that she would be able to learn from a generation of female poets, and this decent ranking is very much in line with her heart. This means that although her poetry talent is not outstanding, it is not so bad that she can't do it, and it is estimated that it is the average level in the circle of ladies in Beijing, right? Although she is a little worthy of her grandfather's reputation as a talent, her calligraphy and painting skills are even more outstanding, and her poetry is slightly inferior, which is not a big deal.
In this world, not everyone has the ability of Yu Xinlan, and Cai Yuanzhen is already rare and outstanding.
All the women were very satisfied with this result, only Zhang Shu sighed and was a little sullen because she hung her tail. It's not the first time she has hung her tail, she never expected that even the newcomer Qin Hanzhen was pressing on her head now, and she felt very shameless.
Tang Su also teased her happily: "Auntie has fallen again today, how many times has this been? It's you every time, I feel annoyed." ”
Cai Yuanzhen coughed and said with a smile: "I don't know how to punish this fallen person today? According to me, there is a spring banquet in the cold house today, and the method of punishment is better than being gentle, don't let those elders know about it, and teach us a lesson." ”
Zhang Shu came with her elders today, she is the granddaughter of the eldest princess of Shouyang, if she is unhappy and alarms the eldest princess of Shouyang, this will be a lot of fun. Cai Yuanzhen also had good intentions and wanted to remind her friends.
Pei Yin pursed her lips and smiled: "I remember that in the early winter, we started a poetry club, and that time it was Ah Shu who fell last. We sent her to break a plum blossom for everybody. That method is the most elegant. Now that we are in the plum forest, the plum blossoms in Qiyuan are blooming well, why don't you ask her to fold a plum blossom for each of us?"
Yu Xinlan tilted her head: "That time the punishment was really elegant, but I have already used this method once before, and now I use the same method again, it is too boring." ”
Pei Yin paused, and then smiled: "Then what method should be used? Even if it is boring, it is no match for us in the plum forest, and it is just right for us to punish Ah Shu to fold the plum." ”
Cai Yuanzhen asked Qin Hanzhen: "As soon as the third sister of Qin came back, the poems were also good, why don't you decide how to punish Ashu, how?"
Qin Hanzhen was stunned: "Me?"
Zhang Shu suddenly stared at her nervously: "You...... Don't make it difficult for you. ”
Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but think about it, what method should she use? In fact, she originally thought that it was good to fold plum blossoms, but Yu Xinlan said so......
Cai Yuanzhen added with a smile: "It's really boring to only punish Ah Shu every time." Why don't we change the rules today, so that the last two should be punished at the same time, okay? The poems of Ah Shu and Qin's second sister can only be regarded as half a catty and eight taels, and the two of them will be punished together, and no one will be wronged. ”
Qin Jinhua was taken aback, and then laughed: "How can this be done? I didn't say a word, why did I pull me in?"
Zhang Shu immediately laughed, hugged Qin Jinhua's shoulders and said, "Sister Cai's idea couldn't be better, it's so decided! Third Sister Qin, you can't come nonsense, you have to remember that your sister is going to be punished with me." If you deliberately toss me, your sister won't be able to hide from me. "Where is there any depression and anger on the face?
Qin Hanzhen smiled when he saw this: "Okay, what talent does Sister Zhang have?" or piano flute, or singing, or calligraphy and painting, perform a show for us to make everyone happy, just do it." How?"
This punishment was very simple, and the women looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
Zhang Shu made a bitter face: "This ...... In front of you, what do I dare to say about my talents? My talents are not as good as Sister Cai, Sister Yu and Ah Yin. Performing in front of you, isn't that an axe for the class?"
Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "Then according to what you say, people who play the piano well can't listen to others play the piano? Because others may not play as well as him? Then what kind of poems do we still have here? It is impossible to compare with Sister Cai and Sister Yu." You just have to pick what you are good at and put on a show, and we'll be happy to see it. If not, why don't you tell us a joke?"
Pei Yin pursed her lips and smiled: "Third Sister Qin, you are really kind, you even allowed her to do this kind of thing, it is clearly to release water." ”
Cai Yuanzhen smiled and said, "What about releasing water? Everyone is just playing." She pushed Zhang Shu, "Didn't you say that you had nothing to do at home during the first month, and you practiced a new tune?
Zhang Shu hurriedly borrowed the piano from her. Cai Yuanzhen sent Ziqi back to her house to get the piano.
While waiting, the women drank tea and ate snacks while looking back to appreciate their own poems. Qin Hanzhen was quite satisfied with his poems today, and quietly put away the poems, planning to take them home to show his grandfather Qin Bai.
At this time, Pei Yin proposed again: "It's boring to sit still, and the banquet in front of us hasn't started yet, why don't we compare it again?" Sister Cai must have already used the poem title that Sister Cai came up with, so why don't we compare it to calligraphy and painting?
This proposal is not enough, Qin Hanzhen is more confident in her heart than when she compared it to poetry before, and she is not afraid at all if she compares it to it.
It's just that Zhang Shu didn't do it: "Although the banquet in front of me hasn't started yet, there is not much time left." Where did we have time to draw anything? I fell back again, and I had to be punished again. I'm not going to do such a stupid thing!"
Qin Jinhua and Tang Su also shook their heads hesitantly, and said that everyone knows how to paint, but it takes too much time, they are very tired now, and they don't want to bother with it anymore.
Yu Xinlan didn't think anything. She is also very good at painting, who is afraid of whom?
Cai Yuanzhen looked at everyone's expressions, and then looked back at Qin Hanzhen. Qin Hanzhen thought for a while and said, "It's okay to sketch or something, it's better to draw it by hand." This time, we will also light a dream sweet incense and make a good painting before the incense burns out. Those who don't want to participate are fine, and those who draw poorly are not punished. ”
Yu Xinlan nodded indifferently, and Cai Yuanzhen also smiled: "This is a little interesting, I haven't compared to such a quick hand painting." So it's decided? The person who draws the worst is not exempt from punishment, but only punishes her to give everyone a cup of tea. ”
No one raised any objections, and Zhang Shu withdrew from the competition under the pretext that she was going to play a new song for a while. Cai Yuanzhen simply changed the rules, changing the time limit from the time when Meng Tianxiang burned to the time when Zhang Shu played a new song, and then ordered someone to get paper and pen paints. Zhang Shu was happy again, and was still scaring Tang Su and Qin Jinhua, saying that they should have more good things to say to her, otherwise she would deliberately play the song shorter after a while to block them.
Qin Hanzhen watched them laugh with a smile on the side, and inadvertently turned around to serve tea, but found that Pei Yin was sitting quietly on the side, her expression seemed to be a little unhappy.
