Chapter 248: Emperor Xuanjing!
Meng Jiayan made a clear statement, and the people he brought over at the bottom naturally understood, and immediately said: "Yushi is not bad at this! In fact, the first two sentences 'the lights are not in the middle of the night, and the Qiong powder turns over the neon clothes', which is also a pun! It is not only a real description of the brilliant lights in the night market at this moment, and the original white and cold flying snow in the city is reflected into an elegant and beautiful scene, and it is also a metaphor for the cold window of ten years, studying hard, in order to climb to Qionglou and change the white clothes into gorgeous clothes. In contrast, Huang Ziyue is certainly a few years older than Hengshu Xiandi, but he is far from the latter's enterprising and honest spirit. ”
The dynasty followed the rules of the previous generation, and the clothing system and colors of the Shu people were regulated, and they could only wear cloth clothes, as well as a few relatively plain colors, bright and gorgeous clothing, which was the privilege of the scholar class. Therefore, like the previous dynasty, "cloth clothes" and "white clothes" refer to the Shu people.
…… However, because the merchants of this dynasty were prosperous and the people were wealthy, this rule was actually not strictly enforced, and it can be said that it was abolished. Moreover, Sheng Sleeping Crane, as the eldest son of the Sheng family, is still Xie Yuan, and he is not a pure concubine.
But firstly, this kind of rhetoric is customary, and secondly, it is now the position that determines the praise and disapproval.
This person followed Meng Jiayan closely, Meng Jiayan wanted to lift Sheng Sleeping Crane to overwhelm Huang Wuyi, and he naturally tried his best to pile up praise words, proving that Sheng Sleeping Crane's various talents were amazing. As for Sheng Sleeping Crane's writing "Qiong Fan Turning Ni Clothes", did he think so much about it...... That doesn't matter at all!
Of course, Meng Jiayan spared no effort to praise Sheng Sleeping Crane, trying to prove that Sheng Sleeping Crane's talent was even higher than Huang Wujiao, and it was impossible for Yuan Liuguang and others to sit back and watch Huang Wuyi lose.
At that moment, Yuan Liuguang snorted coldly and said: "Cousin Li's previous question was based on the Lantern Festival, and each composed a poem! Huang Ziyue wrote all about tonight's weather, but this Sheng Hengshu secretly complained, and it was clearly off topic!
"Marquis Yuan's words are ridiculous!" Meng Jiayan immediately said, "Doesn't Sheng Hengshu's poem depict this night scene? After all, the predecessors once said, 'The words of poetry are noble and elegant, but vulgar and vulgar, and should be contained and taboo clearly', Sheng Hengshu's poem has won the true flavor of this way;
Yuan Liuguang said hesitantly: "A mere sentence of 'Ten Thousand Miles of Fish and Dragon Dance', straightforward and simple can be understood by children, but what kind of grandeur is it?!"
"The word 'Son of Heaven' can also be understood by children, and children are also respectful, and children are also afraid...... According to the words of Marquis Yuan, so the Son of Heaven don't you take it seriously?!" Meng Jiayan narrowed his eyes, as if smiling.
"This Sheng Hengshu is just a scholar, even if he is lucky enough to pass the Spring Festival, the title of the gold list is also a backward in the eunuch field!" Yuan Liuguang was stunned, "A poem he made, how can He De be compared with the Son of Heaven?! Junyu, you are too presumptuous! Could it be that relying on the favor of the Queen Mother, you can do nonsense and talk about the lord in vain?!"
Meng Jiayan was unmoved: "The Marquis of Yuan doesn't have to use strong words to justify and frame false accusations! When did I compare the Son of Heaven with Sheng Hengshu's poems? It's just that you blindly favor Huang Ziyue and cross-examine you! You are wrong and not have a weak heart, why do you want to be so nonsense, instead of judging the facts and judging which of these two poems is higher and which is lower according to your conscience?!"
"Ben Hou is messing around?!" Yuan Liuguang laughed angrily, stroked his short hair, and said hesitantly, "This Sheng Heng is clearly not as talented as Zi Yue, and he barely made up twenty words, from the words to the dictionaries, isn't it superficial and clear, so that people can understand at a glance! If you want to say the taboo of poetry, he is guilty from head to toe! And Junyu, not only did you open your eyes and tell nonsense, but colluded with the same party to give him a poem that was not much better than limerick poetry to impose an explanation, and at this time there was still a face that said that Zi was not as good as him?!"
"If you really trust the poems of this sleeping crane so much, why don't you take advantage of the fact that the light market is in full swing and the crowd is not dispersed, and let people go to the door of the Sleepless Pavilion to ring the gong and gather the crowd, hang the poems of the two people, and ask the people who pass by to judge the superiority?"
Meng Jiayan sneered, and said slowly: "Marquis Yuan, if you really want to do this, you will be convinced, and this official is happy to see it...... To put it mildly, if you just hang the two poems directly, you don't need to look at the result to know: for Sheng Hengshu's handwriting, unless you privately send someone to bribe passers-by, how can you win Sheng Hengshu!"
Yuan Liuguang's eyes sharpened, and he said coldly: "This is a poem, not a calligraphy......! No matter how good the calligraphy is, what will be the use of it at that time?!"
Meng Jiayan was about to speak, when he suddenly heard Li Shengxu cough heavily, and said with a strange face: "Don't fight! Let's gather here here mainly for fun, but if we have different opinions, just say a few words, and the noisy shouting swept away the interest, like what?"
It is said that although Li Shengxu is a marquis, not to mention that Yuan Liuguang is a marquis like him, that is, Meng Jiayan is only the grandson of the marquis, because there are backers like Empress Dowager Meng and the Meng family, there is no need to care too much about him.
After all, the biological mother of the Marquis of Yichun, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess of Wuyang, has always greeted her with a smile in front of King Gaomi, Empress Dowager Meng, and several people in power in the Meng family, even with a little flattery.
But at this time, whether it was Yuan Liuguang or Meng Jiayan, when they saw that Li Shengxu had spoken, they immediately stopped talking, and even the displeasure on their faces was instantly hidden, and they actually apologized to each other in a good way, this said: "Junyu, I just love to be sincere, so I said a few more words, don't misunderstand!"
The one said: "What did the Marquis of Yuan say? Everyone didn't see each other, and they said something with something, which is a sign of mutual closeness and trust." ”
After a few words of greeting, the atmosphere changed from-for-tat to peaceful...... Some of the people who vaguely guessed the truth in this scene were certainly silent, such as Zhao Li, Zhao Taocheng, Sheng Weiqiao, and Sheng Weiwei, but these people were really confused.
Fortunately, the mystery was soon revealed:
Li Shengxu watched Yuan Liuguang and Meng Jiayan reconcile with each other in a few words, nodded with satisfaction, and said warmly: "The so-called people have their own good, since my cousin-in-law likes Huang Ziyue's poems, and Cousin Meng prefers Sheng Hengshu's style, now they have their own opinions, and the dispute is difficult, Ben Hou has been bedridden for many years due to his lack of birth, and he has been busy recuperating his body all these years, and he has no time to study and study, but he can't make this judgment for you!"
After a pause, he showed a meaningful expression, "Fortunately, there are two elders in Benhou, and they happen to be sitting here today, why don't you invite them out and evaluate them, so as to determine the superiority of Huang Ziyue and Sheng Hengshu?"
Although Wen Yanyuan Streamer and Meng Jiayan tried their best to hide it, excitement and apprehension flashed between their eyebrows at the same time, and they said in unison: "Yes!"
Everyone under the "......" saw this situation, and their faces were different, but they all subconsciously got up and prepared to greet them.
Sheng Weiqiao also stood up with the crowd, very speechless in his heart, and secretly thought: "What elders...... You said that you were born inadequate, bedridden for many years, and you have been busy recuperating your body all these years, so it is too late to drag down Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of Wuyang, where is there any effort to take care of how many elders are under their knees?!"
And Li Shengxu's father, Yangwu Hou Lijun, passed away a few years ago, and since then he has been taken by the eldest princess of Wuyang to live in the mansion of the eldest princess of Wuyang, living in a simple house, and it is unlikely that he will be close to the elders of the Li family...... What's more, the most prominent of the Li family is Li Shengxu's father and son, how can the other Li family members come to this Sleepless Pavilion, how can they make Yuan Liuguang and Meng Jiayan put on such a obedient attitude?
Since he is called an elder by Li Shengxu, but he is not from his father's family, he is naturally his mother's family...... The maiden family of the eldest princess of Wuyang is the royal family, and among her sisters, she is the best one now, and she can only enter and leave the palace by currying favor with the queen mother and not getting involved in political affairs.
And among the brothers, King Gaomi and King Guangling came to the Pavilion of the Night, and there was a closer Yuan Streamer, where did Li Shengxu need to be introduced? Not to mention that Meng Jiayan could not be so respectful and obedient to these two princes.
So, these two so-called elders...... One of them is today, Emperor Xuanjing!
The other one is nothing more than the elder sister or younger sister of the Shu sisters?
Sure enough, the indigo-shirted servant behind Li Shengxu quietly walked to the carved lattice door behind the heavy tent, and knocked a few times, as if to make a promise.
A moment later, the door opened, and a tall man about half a hundred years old, with a slightly pale face, and two distinct black colors under his eyes, stepped out first.
The man was wearing a soft scarf, a jujube red background Fushou pattern shirt, a white jade gold box with five clouds holding the sun and a wide belt, gold inlaid jade hooks, hollow birds and grape pattern silver sachets, and new soap-colored silk pants tied in blue satin foundation embroidered begonia gold and jade dynasty boots.
Although he was only dressed as an ordinary magnate, and his complexion was really not good, the natural arrogance at the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, as well as the reaction of Li Shengxu and others who immediately lowered their heads and lowered their eyes after a little glance, and vaguely greeted each other, all proved that Sheng Weiqiao's guess was right, this person was the son of the Great Mu Dynasty, Emperor Xuanjing!
The person who came out of Xuanjing Emperor was wearing a five-fold gauze peach bottom and a golden butterfly love flower palace dress, lightly tied with gold folded silk inlaid jewelry and incense makeup belt, outlining a bewitching figure; Magnificent and magnificent, perhaps for the convenience of travel, her skirt is a little short today, only to touch the ground, when moving a pair of goose yellow inlaid hydrangea phoenix shoes looming, there is no style.
Everyone knows that this Bacheng is one of the two Shu Niangniang in the palace.
It's just that Emperor Xuanjing is here, and no matter how humble this Shu was in the past, he is not a person who can be rashly offended by anyone present, so no one dares to look at her appearance carefully, even the youngest Sheng Weiwei was deliberately pressed down by Sheng Weiqiao, signaling the people around her to bow their heads and lower their eyes.
…… In fact, Sheng Weiqiao had already discovered in the hurried glance of this Shu Niangniang that even if someone rashly raised his head and peeked at this moment, it was in vain: this face was covered with a handkerchief embroidered with a phoenix wearing a peony!
Although the veil is crepe, it is not thin, at least with Sheng Weiqiao's eyesight, at such a glance, I didn't even see her outline, I only felt that her eyes were exposed, like peach blossoms, and there seemed to be autumn water and spring ponds between Gu Pan, which was indescribably charming and enchanting, and there were all kinds of amorous styles.
The identities of these two people, except for Sheng Weiwei, who was still ignorant, basically knew their hearts.
But they obviously still insisted on "micro-service travel", sat down on the seat given by Li Shengxu, and after the subordinate changed to a new seat, Emperor Xuanjing looked around and said with a smile: "You don't have to be restrained, I am an elder of Shengxu, and I originally had no intention of disturbing it today, but I heard that you were arguing over the poems of the two Xie Yuan, and I was afraid that you would hurt the harmony, so I came out to make a round...... Sit down!"
Although the Son of Heaven's acting skills are not very good, and this reason is full of loopholes, everyone still has to cooperate, and after thanking them, they all return to the table to cooperate with the Son of Heaven to continue to perform this play.
Li Shengxu is neutral left and right, it doesn't matter who wins or loses, after giving up his seat to Emperor Xuanjing, he sat on the seat temporarily added by the next servant, and asked with a smile: "Unknown seniors think, who of the two Xie Yuan is better?"
As soon as these words fell, the hall was silent, and they all held their breath and concentrated on listening to the Son of Heaven!
