Chapter 084: Agree to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting
said that everyone and Zhao An learned that Ji Ning had finally returned, and they all turned their heads to look.
I saw that at the end of the street, there was a handsome scholar in Confucian clothes shaking a paper folding fan and walking over gracefully.
The scholar was followed by a pretty maid and four sturdy men with gifts in their hands or on their shoulders.
Watching Ji Ning come back leisurely, the spring breeze was full of faces, and the people who had been waiting for a long time almost got out of their anger, their teeth were itching, and they couldn't wait to pounce on Ji Ning to teach Ji Ning a lesson.
Zhao An was even more depressed and almost vomited blood, which was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed, he was clearly alive and proud!
Ji Ning also looked at many people in front of his house from afar on the street, a little puzzled, thinking about it in his heart, he really couldn't think of what bad things he had done recently.
However, he still walked calmly towards the Ji Mansion.
When he was still two or three feet away from the gate of Ji's house, Zhao An greeted him with a smile.
"Master Ji, you can see that the doctor has come back from treatment." Zhao An bowed and said to Ji Ning, "Zhao An, the chief butler of the Xia Chong Palace, has been waiting for you for a long time. ”
He was worried that Ji Ning would be annoyed and angry when he was suddenly exposed and pretending to be sick, so he automatically found a step for Ji Ning.
Knowing that the other party was the chief butler of Chongwang Mansion, Ji Ning couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he really couldn't figure out how he was known by Chongwang Mansion by pretending to be sick, and he sent the big butler to visit him in person, it seems that he doesn't have such a big face, right?
He came back to his senses, coughed twice to the other party pretending to be sick and had not yet recovered, and then said, "It turned out to be the big housekeeper of Chongwangfu, and Ji was disrespectful." Ji went to see the doctor, you have been waiting for a long time, it is really a sin. ”
After Ji Ning and Zhao An exchanged a few polite words, Ji Ning looked past Zhao An, looked at the large group of people of all kinds who were following Zhao An, and asked Zhao An curiously: "Butler Zhao, who are they ......?"
"Oh, Ji Gongzi, you don't have to pay attention to them." Zhao An's tone was a little contemptuous.
He walked a few streets behind him like a dog, and he actually thought that he was questioning the qualifications of Ji Ning, who personally came to deliver the invitation, such a person did not deserve his respect at all.
Ji Ning saw that Zhao An had a contemptuous attitude towards that group of people, so he didn't ask much and directly ignored them.
Then, Ji Ning invited Zhao An into the house.
When Ji Ning knocked on the door, He An just picked up the copper coins in the courtyard that were full of yards, so Ji Ning smoothly invited Zhao An into the house to entertain.
Enter the hall, divide the guest of honor, and serve good tea.
After taking a sip of tea with each other, Zhao An said to Ji Ning: "Master Ji, yesterday the people of Chongwang's Mansion sent you an invitation to report that Zhao's master learned that you were sick, and he was very concerned, and specially sent him to visit you. Fortunately, Ji Gongzi is a good man, and he has found a miracle doctor, and he seems to be about to be healthy. ”
"Ji is ashamed, thank you for your care." Ji Ning arched his hand and said.
Zhao An turned his face to his entourage and said, "Send the gift." ”
The two attendants immediately stepped forward with the gifts, stopped in front of Ji Ning, opened the lid of the box, and presented the gift to Ji Ning's eyes.
"This is the little heart of Chongwangfu, please accept it with a smile." Zhao An said to Ji Ning.
Ji Ning glanced at the gifts, and saw that the gift box contained both ginseng and precious medicinal materials such as He Shou Wu Lingzhi, and his heart was even more puzzled.
pretended to be sick and rejected the invitation of Chongwangfu, but instead of being hated by Chongwangfu, he kindly sent precious medicinal materials worth thousands of taels.
In addition to doubts, Ji Ning thought for the first time: Abnormality is a demon!
Therefore, Ji Ning immediately stood up and bowed his hand to Zhao An and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but Ji Mou is useless, and he never dares to accept it." Please also ask the big butler Zhao to take it back. ”
"Ji Gongzi doesn't want to excuse himself." Zhao An also stood up and said to Ji Ning, "Ji Gongzi is not only a scholar, but also a talented person, who becomes a poem in four steps, and the poems he makes can be passed on to the world." Chongwangfu has always been courteous and virtuous, and Ji Gongzi has just recovered from a serious illness, so he can just use these medicinal materials to replenish his body. ”
The two pushed back and forth and stalemate for a while, Ji Ning was a little annoyed, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, he agreed to accept it.
Regardless of whether you have laid a trap in the Chongwang Mansion or not, Young Master Ben will eat your bait first. Wait until tomorrow night's Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting, and this young master will come to cover the water again, and he is not afraid of your Chongwang Mansion!
Zhao An was secretly relieved to see that Ji Ning was finally willing to accept the gift.
After the two returned to their seats, Zhao An took out the invitation card and pleaded with Ji Ning's subordinates.
Ji Ning knew that he couldn't avoid the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting in Chongwangfu, so he simply accepted the invitation.
Finally hand-delivered the invitation to Ji Ning, Zhao An exchanged a few more words with Ji Ning, and then got up to say goodbye.
Ji Ning didn't keep it, and asked He An to send off the guests.
Zhao An got out of the Ji Mansion, boarded the carriage, and asked the coachman to hurry back to Chongwang's Mansion.
As for the group of people who followed his carriage, he didn't even look at it.
In fact, the Chongwang Mansion suddenly held a Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, and he, the big housekeeper, was too busy to do anything, and spent a lot of time personally sending invitations to Ji Ning.
After Zhao An left, Yu Ling also asked Ji Ning in confusion: "Young Master, why does Chongwangfu have to ask you to participate in their Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting?" ”
"Hehe, who knows?" Ji Ning said calmly, "It's not a good thing anyway. However, Young Master Ben is not necessarily afraid of them. ”
The Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting is nothing more than writing poems and lyrics, but there is a library in his mind that contains all the ancient Chinese texts and poems, no matter what subject he uses to write poems, he is not afraid! As long as he is vigilant and responds, there is nothing he can do about it. His backer, Shen Kang, a scholar of Fuliang University, was no less important than King Chong's status and energy.
After a pause, Ji Ning suddenly said to Yu Ling: "Yu Ling, let's go out to see Oiran Dabi tonight." ”
Anyway, the matter of pretending to be sick was known to the Chongwang Mansion, and he was no longer obscure, so he simply went out to see Oiran Dabi tonight. And if you want to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting in Chongwangfu tomorrow night, most of you will miss the final of the Oiran Competition.
Before crossing, he admired the Oiran Dabi held on the Qinhuai River in ancient China for hundreds of years.
Qin Huaihe Bayan, Liu Rushi, Gu Hengbo, Ma Xianglan, Chen Yuanyuan, Kou Baimen, Bian Yujing, Li Xiangjun and Dong Xiaowan, he can all remember their names now.
Since I am fortunate enough to travel to this time and space, I also have to see the Qinhuai River Qunfang whose fame has spread all over the world and to future generations!
Yu Ling was worried about his young master being forced to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting in Chongwang's Mansion tomorrow night, and suddenly heard that his young master was going to go out to see Oiran Dabi tonight, and he couldn't help crying.
"Young master, can we not go to see Oiran Dabi? You are going to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting in Chongwangfu tomorrow night, and you also said that the invitation of Chongwangfu is ill-intentioned, so you should prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting tomorrow night at home. Yu Ling persuaded hard, "There are Oiran Dabi every year, let's see next year, okay?" ”
Ji Ning stood up and smiled calmly and confidently: "Look at what you said, Young Master Ben doesn't know the importance at all. Didn't I tell you? You have to believe in Master Ben. Rest assured, Young Master Ben has already prepared. ”
"Really?" Yu Ling asked, thinking of this time, his young master is always confident in doing things, and he can't help but believe it.
"Of course. When did Master Ben lie to you? ”
After that, Ji Ning suddenly stretched out his hand and touched Yu Ling's tender and pretty face, which caused Yu Ling to be shy, and stomped his feet and shouted, "Young Master-"
Ji Ning laughed and walked towards the study with his hands in his hands.
