The First Strange World (24)
Seeing Bai Qi like this, Su Xiangyun didn't mind, and poured wine for Bai Qi with a smile, Bai Qi was also a little hungry, after a meal of nonsense, this stomach was finally full, but the snow crimson tiger was angry with the chopsticks and bowls there.
After eating and drinking, Bai Qi knew that he couldn't run away today, so he simply closed his eyes and closed his eyes there, waiting for the afternoon meeting, saying in his heart, Bai Qi who would like to see what this party was like. Maybe it was because he was in a relaxed mood, Bai Qi actually fell asleep.
"Bai Gongzi! White Childe! A call woke Bai Qi's good dream, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Su Xiangyun who was calling him.
"What? Got dark? Then I'm going home. Bai Qi opened his mouth to leave, and the angry Xue Crimson said angrily: "I really don't know what is good about you, but Senior Sister Labor has accommodated you several times." Hum! Hurry up and wash, everyone else is in the front yard. ”
When Bai Qiyi looked at it, he saw that hot water and towels had been prepared on the table, thinking that Su Xiangyun had prepared them. Bai Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if he was an ordinary scholar, he was so hand-picked by Su Xiangyun, no matter how unruly he was, there was no one who would not be defeated, this Su Xiangyun's kung fu was really enough, but it was a pity that he met me Bai Qi today, I am afraid that all this will be in vain.
After Bai Qi finished washing, he followed Su Xiangyun to the front yard, and as soon as he entered the front yard, he found that there were actually a few familiar faces inside, all of whom were classmates in Naduliang Academy, and in the eyes of gentlemen, they were popular candidates in this year's scientific examination, as for the others, Bai Qi knew that they were nothing more than so-called talents who were a little famous in today's literary world. Among them, there are two middle-aged people, everyone present is very respectful to them, one of them Bai Qi is recognized, it is Liu Yuxin, the Danqing master, and the other is estimated to be Li Qing, Su Xiangyun's teacher who learned words.
Everyone immediately expressed surprise when Bai Qi came out of the backyard, and they all widened their eyes, looking at Bai Qi incredulously, you must know that except for the two teachers in this backyard, no other outsiders have ever entered it, Bai Qi just came out of it in a grand manner, and his face did not change, how could he not make everyone envious.
Since Bai Qi wrote a poem about sparrows at Zhou Ziyun's birthday banquet, the students in Liangcheng also think highly of him, knowing that this Bai Qi is not as mediocre as he usually performs, and looking at Bai Qi's good looks, many people have secretly regarded Bai Qi as the main opponent competing for the position of Su Xiangyun's husband.
Bai Qi casually looked at it and found that there were not many people coming today, only about a dozen, so according to the old habit, he ignored everyone, found a corner and sat down, and watched the changes in this gathering.
Soon others forgot about Bai Qi's existence, and they all set their eyes on Su Xiangyun and Xue Crimson, these people who were invited to the party, how many families had some backgrounds, and knew that Xue Crimson was the princess of Changning, in case she was taken by Princess Changning, wouldn't it be a more beautiful thing.
"You are all good poets in this capital Liang City, I want to invite you to come today, I just have something to ask for, and I hope you will give me advice." Su Xiangyun was actually such an opening statement, which Bai Qi didn't expect. After Su Xiangyun finished speaking, he looked at the venue with a smile, and everyone who watched felt that Su Xiangyun was smiling at himself.
When everyone saw Su Xiangyun open his mouth like this, they immediately replied: "Miss Su is polite, just say something if you have something, and we will definitely help." ”
There were constant answers like this, and Bai Qi, who listened to it, secretly sneered to himself, and secretly said that these literati, who were so invited by Su Xiangyun, maybe they all wanted to be Su Xiangyun's Jackie Chan's quick son-in-law, in the end, they were all people who were played with and applauded. Look at that Su Xiangyun again, wearing a goose-yellow skirt, with a pale green belt tied around her waist, standing there is indeed graceful, her face is not powdered, but it is even more delicate, it is really "but I don't like the color of fat powder", Bai Qi also secretly admired, but I don't know why, I just associate this Su Xiangyun with that ill-intentioned person?
After everyone finished speaking, Su Xiangyun hung up a painting and said: "In March this year, I want to go to the eastern suburbs and make this painting when I return. ”
Today it turned out to be playing this trick of painting and seeking poetry, this trick is really powerful, these literati have always been very self-esteemed, pretentious characters, today's occasion, if the poem is really selected, it is undoubtedly a big face, the two calligraphy and painting everyone is here to witness, in the future in the poetry world is not famous are difficult. This trick is powerful in the favor of everyone. When Bai Qi thought of this, he became interested in seeing what kind of painting Su Xiangyun came up with.
Bai Qi followed behind everyone, stepped forward to look at the painting, only to see that the painting was painted in the wilderness at sunset, the earth was vibrant, the grass was green, a horse was strolling in the field, there was a young man looking around, the mountains in the distance, the grass in the near distance, the breeze blowing, and the grass was moving.
As a master of calligraphy and painting, Bai Qi said, I was also taken aback when I saw this painting, this painting seems simple, but the artistic conception is lofty, if it is really made by Su Xiangyun himself, then his mind can be described as extraordinary, maybe Su Xiangyun is the legendary beauty of the girl, not what he imagined. Bai Qi took a closer look and found that the ink on the painting obviously had a woman's graceful style, although it was very powerful, but it never took off the woman's unique charm.
Bai Qi could already be sure that this was indeed done by Su Xiangyun, and his inner vigilance against Su Xiangyun was much looser.
Bai Qi was still looking at the painting there, and someone had already taken the lead in standing up and saying, "Miss Su, is there below?" Bai Qiyi looked at it, it was his classmate, Liu Guodong, the son of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. Bai Qi said secretly, this guy is a bit of a hurry.
Su Xiangyun smiled when he heard this: "Liu Gongzi is really extraordinary, he has a masterpiece so soon, I want to listen to it." ”
Praised by Su Xiangyun, Liu Guodong was even more proud, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and read with a radiant face: "The east wind doesn't need to be called, spring comes from Angelica." Warm wind and drizzle, this year and green hills. ”
Everyone listened, and applauded, even the snow crimson also applauded, only Bai Qi felt that although this poem expressed the scenery in the painting, but the artistic conception was much worse, so it lost three points, and it was really tight. Although Bai Qi's own poetry skills are average, there are a lot of good sentences of Tang and Song poems in his stomach, and with these thousands of years of precipitation, Bai Qi's vision is naturally a few points higher.
Su Xiangyun keenly captured Bai Qi's demeanor with a little disdain, so he looked at Bai Qi and said, "Hehe, Bai Gongzi, tell me, how is this poem?" This is like a stone breaking through the water and the sky, everyone saw that Su Xiangyun valued Bai Qi so much, and they were all immediately angry, obviously this Bai Qi couldn't make a poem, Liu Guodong made it, and now he actually wants to ask Bai Qi how he is, how can people accept it.
Besides, when Bai Qi was asked by Su Xiangyun, he suddenly became angry, and said secretly: Su Xiangyun, this girl is too bad, and she has forced herself to a dead end. Look at the people around him, all of them are staring at themselves, especially Liu Guodong, his eyes are even more sour, it seems that the old vinegar in Shanxi has been overturned, in short, if Bai Qi doesn't say that he is ugly today, it is estimated that he will not be able to get out.
Bai Qi glared at Su Xiangyun back, if he said how good this poem is, Bai Qi can't do such a conscientious thing, so he has to say truthfully: "The poem is a good poem, but it also suits the situation, but it is slightly deficient in artistic conception, so it will lose a lot of color." ”
That Su Xiangyun seemed to be moved when he heard this, and lowered his head in thought, Liu Yuxin also twisted his beard and nodded slightly when he heard it, and even Li Qing smiled when he heard it. Liu Guodong heard this, although he also felt that it made sense, but there were a few young people in his heart who would admit defeat, and he glared at Bai Qi and said, "Since Brother Bai thinks it is average, then you should make a song and take a look." As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately responded. Most of the people thought to themselves, don't look at you Bai Qi has a supernatural name since he was a child, yesterday was the birthday feast and made some sparrow poems to refer to Sang and scold Huai, today is a donkey or a horse, pull it out and slip.
"What Bai Gongzi said is very reasonable, Xiang Yun also tried to make a few poems to paint with this, but he always felt that he didn't understand the point, and when he heard Bai Gongzi say this today, it was really a mouthful." Su Xiangyun's words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, and everyone was even more indignant when they heard it, and someone was already shouting there: "Who can't talk about it, let's have some real character to convince people, right?" ”
Bai Qi knew that he wouldn't be able to do something powerful today, anyway, he had already plagiarized two masterpieces from his predecessors in his previous life, and it didn't hurt to add some more case records today. At that moment, Bai Qi separated everyone and came to the painting to think, his mind was actually searching for poems that could be used in the memories of his previous life, and suddenly Bai Qi had a flash of inspiration and said secretly: "There is." ”
Bai Qi raised his head, smiled at everyone, and had a confident posture. Su Xiangyun saw it and hurriedly asked, "Bai Gongzi, have you made it?" ”
Bai Qi glanced at the culprit who forced him to plagiarize, and then came to the front of the case, and wrote, "Leave the grass on the plain, one year old and one withered." Everyone saw that this beginning was not very good, but everyone had seen Bai Qi's "one, two, three, four, five, six, seven", and they didn't dare to say that Bai Qi was not, but they all patiently waited for Bai Qi's next words.
Bai Qi deliberately looked at everyone, and saw that everyone didn't shout like the last birthday feast, so he smiled secretly and continued to write, "The wildfire can't burn out, and the spring breeze blows and grows again." ”
As soon as these last two sentences were written, everyone shouted "ah", and even Xue Crimson, who had always been at odds with Bai Qi, looked at Bai Qi with complicated eyes.
