Chapter 63: Straw Bags
beckoned the young man over and whispered two words to him, and the young man nodded again and again.
An Rong admired the paintings for a while, and waited for the young man to come over and serve, "What kind of painting does Miss Shen want to buy?" β
"Give me a picture of Zhong Kui catching ghosts."
The young man was embarrassed, "There is a picture of Zhong Kui catching ghosts in the shop, but before the girl came, it was decided by Young Master Xiao, if the fourth girl is in a hurry, it is better to discuss ...... with him." β
An Rong's face suddenly turned into an eggplant.
Lian Xuan was looking at the painting on the side, listened to the young man's words, and came over to ask An Rong, "You are really in such a hurry to ask for that painting, I can help you." β
An Rong raised his eyes to look at him, his brows twisted, and he looked at him vigilantly, "Would you be so kind?" β
Lian Xuan's face sank, this woman was born to be angry with him, he was full of good intentions, how could she see that it was a bad heart, Lian Xuan faked a cough, cleared his throat and said, "That's natural, you help me carry a calligraphy and painting." β
Really.
An Rong was about to snort coldly, but suddenly raised his eyebrows, "You seem to owe me a condition?" β
Lian Xuan was stunned, the roots of his ears suddenly turned red, and he hit someone's muzzle, how could he forget about this, "I'll help you paint." β
Turn around and leave.
An Rong hurriedly said, "What about the inscription painting?" β
She doesn't guarantee that she can write the inscription, but look at a lot of what, how can she use the promise she won so easily?
An Rong begged the painting not to be too difficult, but Lian Xuan stretched out his hand and pointed at it.
The place referred to is the most lively place in Qingyuxuan, Qianjin Pavilion.
Separated from the second floor by a crescent arch, on one side is hung with unfinished paintings.
"That's it. As long as your inscription satisfies the artist. I got Xie Yi. Your painting will be sent to you immediately," Lian Xuan smiled like a spring breeze.
Qingyuxuan's paintings are famous, and they often sell the posthumous works of the sages of the past dynasties, and some people have painted paintings, and there are no matching poems for a while, so they are hung here, so that talented people can write inscriptions.
There were several people around the bottom of the picture.
Being blocked by people, I can't see what is drawn. Shen Anxi pulled An Rong over.
After taking a look, Shen Anxi's eyebrows frowned, it turned out to be "Game Map".
She came to buy a book last month, and saw this painting hanging here, and now a month has passed, and no one has successfully inscribed it, which shows that the owner of the painting is demanding, and the Hou Shizi of Jingbei is not the fourth sister who is embarrassed?
Shen Anxi was worried for An Rong.
Shen Anyu waited to see the show, for fear that it would not be lively, and poured oil. stepped forward and blasted, "Trouble a few people." My fourth sister wants to write a poem. β
A few people who were thinking about it were suddenly disturbed, and they frowned unhappily.
The first to look back was a girl about fourteen years old, with a pale complexion, big eyes, melon seed face, and delicate makeup, she was more and more beautiful and touching.
It's just that the eyes are cold, and there is a slight anger, which destroys the beauty of the three points.
She is the daughter of the grandson of the country's priest, Sun Xinsu.
Guozi is a priest of wine, although the official title is not high, only from the fourth grade, but the status is special, there is a group of official disciples as his protΓ©gΓ©s, no worse than the third grade official.
Sun Xinsu was born in a scholarly family, and in the circle of beautiful ladies in Kyoto, he is quite famous and proud.
The Hou Mansion of Wu'an has only been based in Kyoto for 30 years, and it is a military general who was born, and those Qingliu nobles did not take the Hou Mansion in their eyes at all, not to mention that the Sun Mansion and the Shen family of Qizhou are still related to each other, and they are not to see the Hou Mansion of Wu'an.
Sun Xinsu's gaze swept over Shen Anyu lightly, and when it fell on An Rong, it became Chi Guoguo's contempt, "I have long heard that several girls in the Hou Mansion of Wu'an are very talented, but now I am going to open my eyes." β
There was another girl standing beside her, wearing a blue dress, light and elegant, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked, and she looked lively.
"I don't dare to open my eyes, I just hope that I can go home with my teeth intact and speak without leaking the wind," the woman smiled lightly.
Speech is as soft as silk, but it hurts like a knife.
Shen Anyu stomped her feet angrily, it was one thing for her to push An Rong into the water, it was one thing for her to be ridiculed for her inferior talents, and it was another thing to show off her literary talent and laugh off her big teeth, how could she bear it!
If this tone doesn't come out, it will be passed back to the circle of noble ladies in Kyoto, and she will not be laughed to death!
Shen Anyu sneered and sneered, "Some people say that grapes are sour when they can't eat grapes, and they don't have the ability to attack other people's self-confidence." β
This girl is the daughter of the Ministry of Rites, Zhou Wenting.
Hearing Shen Anyu ridicule her, her face changed in red, "I can't write, it's better than some people!" β
"It's timid that doesn't even have the courage to try," Shen Anfu suddenly answered, her tone was as gentle as water, but it was the tip of the needle.
Originally, Shen Anyu just wanted to kick An Rong into the water, but Sun Xinsu belittled the girls in the entire Wu'an Hou Mansion with one mouth, so don't blame them for sneering at each other.
There were two girls dressed in ordinary clothes on the side, and seeing the tension on both sides, they dragged the man who was holding a book in the corner and said, "Brother, let's not get in the way here, let's go quickly." β
The man didn't raise his head and said, "I'll leave when I'm done with this page." β
The two girls were embarrassed and red, especially when they heard the maid's sneering, they felt that their bodies were cold, and they went over and dragged the man away.
When the man left, he was still muttering and wanted to turn back several times.
It is a state of self-forgetfulness and only books.
The man is handsome, mild-tempered, and silly, and An Rong looks more and more familiar, but he just can't remember it.
When the man went back and picked up the book and turned the page, An Rong's eyes lit up, and she remembered!
Three years later, Tanhualang!
She remembers that three years later, after the imperial examination, after the announcement of the new jinshi list, the apricot garden flower exploration banquet was held, and the flower tanlang would ride a horse to the famous gardens on Kyoto Street to pick all kinds of early spring flowers.
At that time, there were people in the champion and the list, and there were two other test papers that were evenly matched, and the emperor thought that whoever picked the most flowers would be Tanhualang.
Tanhualang wanted to visit the major mansions and go into the inner courtyard to pick flowers, but when he saw the book that the master had put in the garden, he sat down to read it.
When the other flower explorer returned to the palace for the banquet, he was still reading. The emperor ordered him to return to the palace.
Such a book-loving man. The Great Zhou Dynasty was still the first one. The emperor intends to edit the "Zhou Dian", so he appointed him to be the major, this is a good opportunity to leave a name in history, it should be those senior ministers to compile it, the emperor just accepted him, it took three years to compile a small half, just this small half, the emperor made an exception to seal him from the third grade.
Never participated in court battles. But he has won the trust of the emperor, and sometimes one sentence is more effective than ten words said by others.
His name is Li Xun.
An Rong didn't expect to see Tanhualang in advance, but why didn't he be on the Jinshi list next year?
It looks like it's eighteen, is it off the list?
The young man saw An Rong looking at Li Xun and frowned slightly, and explained, "This is the young master of the Li family on the street before, the family is in the middle of the road, Mrs. Li is looking forward to him being in high school, and he often copies books for the shop to supplement the family." β
Because he is quick to copy books. The calligraphy is good, and there are no mistakes. The shopkeeper liked him very much, and made an exception to let him read a book here for an hour every day.
An Rong was thoughtful.
"It's so lively, what's going on?" Suddenly, there was a voice behind him like a warbler crying in the hollow valley.
Sun Xinsu was overjoyed, and gave Zhou Wenting a look, and Zhou Wenting hurriedly greeted her, "Sister Mingzhi, you came just in time, help us be a referee, and see if the poems we make are good, or the poems made by the six girls of the Shen family." β
Su Mingzhi raised her eyebrows and glanced at Zhou Wenting, "You two to the six girls of the Shen family?" β
Su Mingzhi, the concubine of the Protector's Mansion, looks delicate and charming, wearing a willow green skirt and a goose yellow waist, which makes her slender waist as weak as a willow appear more slender, and her gestures are full of grace.
Shen Anyu's face was dry, and with six against two, even if he won, he would not be able to win.
"Me and Sixth Sister to the two of you!" Shen Anyu said with his neck held high.
Among the six girls of the Shen family, Shen Anxi's poetry attainments are the highest, followed by Shen Anxi, but Shen Anyu is a descendant, since it is a competition, naturally the best is coming, she wants to let Shen Anxi play, isn't that admitting that she is inferior to her?
Sun Xinsu sneered, "I think you should go up together." β
In fact, as long as she wins the two of them, even if she wins six, it's just that she is not satisfied, she wants to let people know that a group of girls in Wu'an Houfu are all straw bales!
Su Mingzhi smiled, "It's still two against two." β
Since it is a referee, it is important to be fair and impartial.
The young man hurriedly prepared pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and the four of them wrote poems at the same time.
An Rong stood aside and was speechless, Shen Anyu originally intended to push her into the water, but in the end, how could she go into the water by herself, what is going on?
The movement of Dou Shi was very noisy, and many people came to see the excitement.
Only next to the bookshelf, Li Xun was still reading selflessly, and there was a strange person standing on the side watching him read.
This strange thing is none other than the Hou Shizi of Jingbei.
He wanted to see that a few meters away there were more than a dozen beautiful girls and handsome maids, who were joking and joking, and he could still read them.
Lian Xuan bent over, his face was almost touching the book, Li Xun glanced at ten lines, looked a little nervous and said, "Give me another quarter of an hour, I will be able to read it to you, don't worry." β
Lian Xuan almost fell to the ground.
Shen Anyu picked up the pen confidently, but after writing two sentences, she was a little powerless, especially when she saw the two people on the opposite side writing with relaxed faces, she became more and more flustered.
After half a cup of tea, Sun Xinsu put down the pen, and the maid picked up the paper to dry and handed it to Su Mingzhi.
So many people watched the excitement, and after Su Mingzhi saw it, the poems spread.
Shen Anxi also finished writing.
Then there is Zhou Wenting, and finally Shen Anyu.
Sun Xinsu's talent is outstanding and is recognized as the first.
Zhou Wenting and Shen Anxi are comparable.
Shen Anyu last.
Sun Xinsu became more and more arrogant, "It seems that the girl of the Shen family, who is rumored to be extraordinary, is nothing more than that." β
Zhou Wenting covered her mouth and smiled, "In the future, you have to keep a low profile, don't open your teeth and dance your claws if you don't have that ability, the land is so big, where you can't write poetry, let us give way." β
