Chapter Two Hundred and Four: Proof
The person who did not do it was good, Xia Shang still underestimated the resentment of the ancient eldest lady, but he didn't expect that because of a little conflict in Meiyuan, the other party would make such a ruthless move. What's even more puzzling is that the president of the Tang and Tang Poetry Association still cooperated with this matter!
Nangong Hanjiang retreated from the window, looked out the window, and turned his back to everyone, making people think that he was holding his own identity and was unwilling to point out Xia Shang's mistakes in person. But Xia Shang knew that she was just restless, afraid that others would see her mood swings at the moment.
There are mood changes that prove that she still has a sense of shame, but she does not deserve sympathy.
wants to keep his high and wants to cover up his guilt, this kind of practice of doing bad things and wanting to seek peace of mind is really infuriating!
"Young Master Xia! Can you give me an explanation? Mei Wan'er interrupted Xia Shang's thoughts with a smile, "Tell me how you stole Master Nangong's poems?" Didn't Mo sneak into Master Nangong's house? ”
"How is that possible? How could Xia Gongzi be such a person? Luo Ming, who was the first to find Xia Shang, bit the small handkerchief embroidered for Ouyang with her small mouth, tears rolled in her eyes, could the supreme idol in her heart be shattered like this?
Even if I don't want to admit it, the facts in front of me are enough to explain everything, no one will believe that the poem "Plum Blossom" was made by Xia Shang, and the other girl patted Luo Ming: "Wake up!" Where is Xia Gongzi? It's clearly a big liar! It is said that there is no business and no treachery, this is true! ”
Luo Ming sniffed and walked up to Xia Shang: "Young Master Xia, is this true?" ”
Xia Shang didn't answer, nor did he pay attention to Mei Wan'er's provocative gaze, and looked at Nangong Hanjiang sitting at the window: "Nangong girl, may I ask if you wrote this poem?" ”
Nangong Hanjiang didn't move, and hesitated for a while before a voice came: "The painting is here, the time is clearly written, if you don't believe it, you can hand it over to the framing master for verification." ”
"The twenty-fourth day of the lunar month is only one month away, so which framer can judge the paintings within a month? Miss Nangong doesn't need to explain, as long as you look back and look at me to answer yes or no! ”
After a moment of dullness, Nangong Hanjiang finally turned around, his face still had the previous beauty, and looked at Xia Shang lightly, but the word "yes" was held back for a long time, and after she spoke, everyone's hearts sank.
Not only is everyone still guessing what they think, but now that the Nangong girl is talking in person, the matter has become a fact.
This kind of thing is too unbelievable, plagiarism is a very serious thing among literati, once it spreads, even if there is no punishment, plagiarists will become street rats in all walks of life, and there will be no place for a cone among literati. Therefore, even if you want to be famous, literati rarely plagiarize, and even if they plagiarize, they will choose a more secure method.
For example, copying the poems heard in Jiangnan to Qinling, which is not easy to be discovered, like Xia Shang, Chang'an copying Chang'an, in the eyes of everyone, is undoubtedly death.
Of course, Xia Shang will not read out Chang'an's poems in Chang'an if he wants to copy them, even if Jiangnan's poems are copied to Chang'an, he still feels unsafe, and all the poems of the Song Dynasty are copied to the Tang Dynasty, and the result is TMD in addition to the problem! Where does this make sense?
Judging from the current situation, it is unlikely that the other party is lying, and choosing to insist that the poem is your own will cause even more trouble.
After thinking about it briefly, Xia Shang felt that it was better not to be reckless, even if he debunked Nangong Hanjiang, he would not be able to get any benefits, he would only offend the entire Qinbei Poetry Association, and it would seriously affect the reputation of the president of the Poetry Society, and he would definitely be completely hated by the other party, so that there would be one more person who hated him.
After being silent for a while, Xia Shang had a plan, and asked again: "Miss Nangong, since you said that this poem was made by you, but you can't prove that I copied it?" ”
"Isn't that plagiarism?" The people around were angry, "Miss Nangong's painting is in front of the time, and you made this poem in the Plum Garden later, isn't it plagiarism?" ”
Nangong Hanjiang actually spoke for Xia Shang this time: "Everyone, I have been hiding this work at home since the day it was completed, and I have never made it public, so I think it is unlikely to be read by others, as for how did this Xia Gongzi know?" I can't speculate, and you don't have to speculate. ”
"Could it be that two people want to go together? Wrote almost the same poem? How can there be such a coincidence in the world? ”
Now it's time for Xia Shang to give an explanation.
Xia Shang looked at Nangong Hanjiang in surprise, found the dodge in the other party's eyes, and at the same time saw the dissatisfaction in Mei Wan'er's eyes, and his hatred for Nangong Hanjiang was a little smaller. However, Xia Shang's current situation is not hatred or hatred of Nangong, but how to calm the anger of the public and how to give a reasonable explanation?
Xia Shang said from everyone: "Everyone, I don't hide it, this work is what I got in my dream, I thought it was a masterpiece that no one knew, but I didn't expect it to collide with Nangong girl's poem." ”
"What? What do you get in your dreams? ”
"Still shameless? Can you think of a better reason? ”
"That's it! A profiteer is a profiteer, and he doesn't blush when he says such irresponsible things! ”
Seeing that the crowd was excited, Xia Shang hurriedly explained: "Don't be angry, the reason why you don't explain is that I don't think you will believe it." At this time, a certain is not said to be good, the situation is really so, I saw a woman in a dream, but I don't know her appearance, only heard two poems, "plum blossom" is just one of them, the other one has not yet been listened to with everyone, there are still memories, if you don't believe it, I can talk about the second poem and listen to everyone. ”
Everyone was stunned, subconsciously shut up, and listened to the poems first.
"Settle down at the end of the world, and follow the material. Hanmei is the most hateful and often used as last year's flower. ”
“……”
There was silence.
Xia Shang pretended to scratch his head in embarrassment: "The reason why I didn't read this poem out was because I really felt that this poem was too close to a woman, so I didn't dare." I wonder if the poem I got in this dream is considered to be my own composition? ”
Indeed, the mood of the second poem is closer to that of a woman, and the man's mouth is likely to arouse suspicion.
"Nangong girl, don't say that this is also your work, right?"
The audience is also a little curious, if this is still the work of Nangong girl, it will be interesting, in case Xia Shang's dream is true, wouldn't the two meet in a dream? And recite poems right! This kind of story can be spread out in at least dozens of different versions.
Nangong Hanjiang's face was a little red, and he pursed his face and said in a low voice: "This poem was not written by me. ”
"It's good if it's not, if it's really done by Miss Nangong, it's strange, there's no lie in what I'm talking about!" Xia Shangshao scratched his head and looked at Mei Wan'er again, "Miss Wan'er, it can't be you, right?" ”
Mei Wan'er bit her lower lip lightly, her eyes widened: "Even if what you say is true, it is not your poem, you are a villain who has a false reputation!" ”
"Maybe." Xia Shang shrugged his shoulders and turned to others, "Everyone, now believe that I didn't plagiarize?" ”
