Chapter 153: Qingyue Poetry Society (2)
Li Qing'an walked around the house for a long time before finally finding the plum garden at the entrance, this year's weather is warm, a plum blossom of proud snow blooms in early spring, the flowers bloom vigorously, the flower is red and white, the petals are moist and transparent, as if amber or jade are carved, it is very a bit of jade and ice clear charm.
Wei Mansion is very carefully considered, in the plum bush paved with bluestone slabs, formed several plum blossom paths, the stone path can be seen everywhere to enjoy the plum guests, today Wei Mansion has many guests, there are to Wei family Sanniang congratulations, there are to participate in the poetry society gathering, there are more than a dozen famous poets.
Li Qing'an enjoyed the game all the way with his hands behind his back, but after walking more than a dozen steps, a group of young men and women from the poetry club blocked the way in front of him, and they all looked up at the plum blossoms, thinking hard about the stroke of genius.
Suddenly, a person laughed and said: "Yes, Xiaolai is drunk and drunk, and the Wei Mansion is a secluded path to explore Lao Mei, how about these two sentences?" ”
"Not good! Not good! It's too straightforward, the eldest grandson brother has to borrow Mei to express his feelings. ”
"Okay, I'll think about it again."
Everyone fell silent again, Li Qingan smiled, did not disturb them, he looked at the beautiful plum sea, and couldn't help but be poetic, familiar with three hundred Tang poems, can not write poems and chant, stretched out his hand to poke a plum blossom, smelling the faint fragrance on the plum branch, but thinking of the ancient Yongmei sentence in his mind.
Lu You's fortune operator is a good sentence, but it is a word, the word is just a poem, and he can't get into the hall of elegance, he suddenly remembered a few good sentences when he was a teenager, and he vaguely remembered one poem, and forgot who wrote it, so he came to it, shook his head and said: "In February, the east wind blows the snow away, and the mountains in Anxi are green like water." No one saw a Qiang pipe, and countless plum blossoms fell on the bridge. ”
He was extremely proud in his heart, and suddenly there was a burst of applause behind him, "Good poem!" ”
When I turned around, I saw two people standing not far behind him, in front of him was a man in his early thirties, his eyes were bright and bright, he was actually Cen Shen who he saw in the morning, and he was followed by a middle-aged man in his forties, who was haggard and gloomy, giving people an indescribable sense of depression.
Cen Shen stepped forward and said with a smile: "I didn't expect General Li to compose poems, but when I saw Mei Siwu, I missed the Tianshan Mei in Anxi?" ”
Li Qingxin was ashamed, where would he write any poem, this poem was slightly changed by him, forgetting who the author was, if it was written by the early Tang Dynasty, he would stink.
He waved his hand and smiled: "In front of Poet Cen, how dare I say that I am a poem, when will Judge Cen go to the North Court?" ”
Speaking of which Cen Shen is his subordinate, so he didn't have too much politeness in front of Cen Shen, Cen Shen heard him call himself an official position, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "I'm waiting for the military department to transfer the order, and when the military department comes down, I'll be ready to go." ”
"Well, then we can go along."
Li Qing'an's eyes fell on the middle-aged man behind Cen Shen again, and said with a smile: "Judge Cen , who is this?" ”
"I'll introduce you to Li Yuanjun!"
Cen Shen pulled the middle-aged man and said with a smile: "This is my good friend, Wang Changling, the captain of the dragon standard." ”
"Oh! It turns out that Your Excellency is Wang Changling, and I have heard of the name for a long time. ”
Li Qing'an was in awe, when he was a child, he also read his 'Yellow Sand wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned if it is not broken', but he didn't expect to meet this poet in Weifu.
Wang Changling's surname is upright, offended the officialdom and magnates, causing him to be repeatedly deposed, and a few years ago he was demoted to the remote Longbiao County as a county lieutenant. '.
Half a year ago, he resigned from his humble position as Captain Long Biao, returned to Beijing to look for opportunities, and entrusted a lot of people, but because he resigned from his official position and gave a bad evaluation in the tribe of officials, no one dared to use him, so that he hit a wall everywhere, and his life became increasingly embarrassing, and he could only rely on some old friends to help him.
Wang Changling's heart was cold, and he was ready to return to his hometown Bozhou to farm after the New Year.
Wang Changling had also heard of Li Qing'an's name, and hurriedly smiled and said: "General Li's battle in Qinghai can be described as earth-shattering, crying ghosts and gods, I admire it very much. ”
Cen Shen next to him said with a smile: "A few days ago, I talked about Li Yuanjun with the young uncle, and the young brother also specially wrote a poem for the Anxi scout camp of the envoy to achieve his ambition. ”
When Li Qingan heard that Wang Changling actually wrote poems for his army, he couldn't help but be curious, and hurriedly smiled and said, "I would like to listen to Mr. Wang's poems." ”
"When I heard about the general's feat, I wrote a poem and sent it to the general and the general's officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army."
Wang Changling smiled slightly, and said with his back hand: "The desert wind and dust are dark, and the red flag is half rolled out of the gate. The former army fought in Taohebei at night, and it has been reported that it has captured Gu Hun. ”
Li Qing'an was overjoyed, it turned out that this poem was actually written for himself, and he bowed down and bowed deeply: "Thank you Mr. Wang for your reputation." ”
At this time, a family member in the distance was beckoning the two of them to go back, and Cen Shen said, "Why don't you go with us!" ”
"I'm going to find someone who comes with me first, and I'll go later."
"Alright, let's go first."
Cen Shen and Wang Changling arched their hands, and went first, and after walking a few steps, Cen Shen suddenly turned back and said to Li Qingan in a low voice: "Envoy, Wang Changling is poor and has no way to find a job, and he said yesterday that I was going to Beiting, and he was also very yearning." ”
Li Qingan understood what he meant, so he smiled and said, "Leave me his address!" ”
Cen Shen was secretly happy, and hurriedly took out a job search post of Wang Changling, handed it to Li Qingan, and said, "There is his address on it." ”
Li Qingan accepted it and asked again, "Who else is here today?" ”
"Brother Taibai may also come, and Gao Shi is also here, but since he became Ge Shuhan's staff, it is a little different from before."
Cen Shen sighed, then thanked him again and walked quickly.
I didn't expect to meet Wang Changling in Weifu, Li Qingan had some expectations for this trip to Weifu, Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Changling, Wang Wei, Cen Shen, Gao Shi, Wang Zhilian, these are all famous poets of the same era, I don't know how many I can meet today?
Li Qingan quickened his pace, he was anxious to find Dugu Mingzhu and tell her so that she would not be in a hurry.
Turning a corner, Li Qing'an arrived at the other end of the plum garden, in front of which was a 'Ding' word fork, only to see a woman in a pink dress coming from the other end of Nana, full of plum blossoms covering her face, but seeing her plump and slender figure, the long skirt fluttered with a kind of heavenly fragrance and national beauty, Li Qingan suddenly felt that he seemed to have seen this figure somewhere, very familiar, when the thought turned, the woman had already walked out of the plum branch, and it was a pretty face compared with the plum blossoms.
"Dugu Mingyue!"
Li Qingan blurted out, the person who came was Dugu Mingyue, as soon as Mingyue turned around, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she calmed down again, and wrote lightly: "It turned out to be General Li, what a coincidence!" ”
"Miss Mingyue, why are you here? By the way, your poetry club is gathering today! I almost forgot. ”
Li Qingan walked up to her and smiled again: "Are you looking for Mingzhu?" ”
"Hmmm! Did General Lee see her? ”
"I was dragged here by her, I met the master of the Wei Mansion just now, and after a few words of greeting, she and Cui Liuliu left first."
"It turned out to be with Liu Liu, then I know where she is."
Dugu Mingyue knew that her sister must have gone to find Wei Qi, she took a different path, and she missed it, she put her heart down, and said with a smile: "Does General Li also like to enjoy plum blossoms?" ”
"I like it very much, when I was in Anxi Bahuan City, there were a few plum blossoms next to my residence, I remember that in February of the previous year, there was a heavy snowfall, and many spring flowers were too cold to wither, only it was in full bloom and extraordinarily gorgeous."
Mingyue nodded lightly and sighed, "Yes!" Plum blossom to its lonely self-appreciation, not with vulgarity, I admire its character more, so I also like plum blossoms the most. ”
Li Qingan smiled slightly, and whispered: "Outside the broken bridge, there is no owner. It was already dusk and I was alone, and it was even more windy and rainy. has no intention of fighting for spring, and a group of people are jealous. Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant, bright moon, but this feeling? ”
Mingyue was stunned, she looked at Li Qingan incredulously, "You...."
A hint of melancholy welled up in her deep pool-like eyes, "I have no intention of fighting for spring, and I am jealous." Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant as before. ”
She savored the indescribable taste, and there was an inexplicable feeling in her heart, and when she looked at Li Qingan again, her eyes were already as gentle as water.
The two of them walked side by side on the bluestone path, Li Qingan smelled the faint fragrance on her body, surrounded by delicate flowers, plum petals floating all over the ground, but beside him was a beautiful woman like jade, he couldn't help but be a little intoxicated.
"General Li, do you remember the scene when you were in Madame Yang's mansion the year before last?"
"You mean throwing a pot?"
"Nope! By the small bridge, you tell me about the beauty of Anthy. ”
Mingyue looked up at a few white clouds in the sky, and said quietly: "It is vast and magnificent, there is a grassland that cannot be seen at a glance, by the river, groups of snow-white sheep are grazing leisurely, white clouds are worn on the top of the iceberg and snow peaks like hats, and the ice peaks are as dazzling as sapphires, as if they are cities in the sky, cities in the sky, I still remember." ”
Li Qing'an saw that she still remembered what she said at the time, and couldn't help but be a little moved in her heart, so she smiled and said, "Then do you want to go to Anxi?" ”
"Of course, but I can only think about it." Mingyue sighed, a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes.
Li Qingxin suddenly rose with courage, stared at her beautiful eyes and said, "Then you can go with me!" I'll take you to Anthy. ”
"General Li, you!"
Mingyue's face suddenly flew a touch of red, and her eyes were flustered, "General Li, I'm going to find Mingzhu, I, I'll go first." ”
She lowered her head, turned around and left, "Mingyue!" Li Qing'an shouted to her, Mingyue stopped, suddenly, she looked back at him faintly, her eyes were full of autumn water, and her tenderness was infinite, she lowered her head and sped up her steps.
Li Qing'an kept watching her go away, and the moment she went to Qiubo, he was intoxicated.
........
Mingyue walked quickly towards the inner house, her steps were light, her body was ringing with a sound, the haze of more than a year was swept away at this moment, her eyes became bright and affectionate, her heart was full of sweetness, she understood the meaning of Li Qingan's words, that is, a confession to her.
At noon, her father also told her that he wanted to invite Li Qingan to his house for dinner, but she didn't understand what her father meant, but now she understands that her father deliberately wants to marry Li Qingan.
Thinking that Li Qingan came to the house for a blind date in the past, he was cold to him at that time, but he didn't remember his past suspicions, and stepped forward when his sister was in danger.
Mingyue sighed, Li Qingan saved his sister last time, and he hasn't thanked him yet! When is the right time to thank him in person?
She was thinking wildly, walked through a semi-circular flower door, and in front of her was Wei Qi's embroidery building, and suddenly heard someone calling her: "Sister Mingyue!" ”
As soon as she turned around, she saw three young ladies sitting in front of a rockery, she knew them all, one was Cui Liuliu, the other was Changsun Yun, and the other was slightly thin Cui Ningbi, the daughter of Mrs. Han.
"What are you three here? What about the pearl? ”
"The pearl is in the Wei Qi embroidery building."
Cui Liuliu pointed at Cui Ningbi and smiled: "Yun'er and I are forcing her to have a treat!" Ask her to give us a drink of joy. ”
"Like wine?" Mingyue said with a smile: "Which little prince married us Ning Bi?" ”
"Although he is also surnamed Li, he is not a clan."
The eldest Sun Yun next to him said with a smile: "Ning Bi is going to marry Li Qing'an, who everyone envies." ”
Mingyue's chest was like a sledgehammer blowing, her face turned pale in an instant, her mind was blank, and she only heard the eldest grandson Yun say: "It was the matchmaker made by the noble concubine Niangniang, who specially summoned Li Qing'an into the palace, and Mrs. Qin Guo and Mrs. Qiu Guo made marriage certificates." ”
"Sister Mingyue, what's wrong with you?" Liu Liu discovered Dugu Mingyue's anomaly.
"Nothing!" Mingyue restrained the sadness in her heart, and reluctantly smiled at Cui Ningbi: "Ningbi, congratulations." ”
"Hmmm! Thank you, Sister Mingyue, my mother also agreed, and I will go to my mother to discuss it tonight. ”
Cui Ningbi's eyes swelled with a touch of shyness, more than a year ago, Li Qingan and Shi Siming competed in throwing arrows at the third aunt's mansion, and Li Qingan left a deep impression on her at that time, so she also practiced throwing pots at home, but she didn't expect that the concubine Niangniang would promise herself to him.
"Sister!" Mingzhu ran over panting from a distance and complained, "Why are you here, I'm looking for you everywhere." ”
"Mingzhu, your sister doesn't seem to be in good health." Cui Liuliu reminded her in a whisper.
Mingzhu also noticed that her sister's face was pale, and hurriedly said, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" ”
"It's okay, I'm suddenly a little unwell, Mingzhu, help me to sit in the room."
"Okay!" Mingzhu hugged her sister and walked more than a dozen steps, she suddenly laughed in a low voice: "Sister, guess who I brought, Li Qingan, I brought him." ”
"Say no more!" Mingyue interrupted her in a low voice, "He has nothing to do with me!" ”
Mingyue couldn't hold back any longer, she looked up at the white clouds in the sky, thinking about the sky city in Anxi, happiness came so suddenly, but it went so fast, just like the white clouds in the sky, coming with the wind, scattering with the wind, and two crystal tears rolled out of her beautiful eyes.
