Chapter 7 Twin Flowers, Debate Talents
"Stop!"
I thought that a brawl was inevitable, but a shout came from downstairs. Liu Yu looked at the well-dressed guests who had noticed them when they entered the door just now. The voice of the drinker was strong and strong but soft, which first made Liu Yu think about whether this person was his daughter's family.
The identity of this person's male and female identity is not as recognizable as that of the Han sisters, because this person deliberately drew thick eyebrows.
Dressed in Confucian clothes with hair tied and crowned, the long figure, especially the goose egg face, the face is slightly wide, and it cannot be judged by the evaluation standards of ordinary beauties. Hu Xuan on the side gave the answer in a low voice: "It's Lord Min." ”
Hu Xuan and the others had already seen this royal relative at the poetry meeting today, and although they had changed into men's clothes, they could still recognize it at a glance. The men's clothes that Lord Min went out with were more prepared than the Han family sisters, at least he had a flat chest and worked his face.
Lord Min's words were really good, and one sentence made the two sides who were tense and wanted to fight stop temporarily.
I only heard the lord of Minjun say: "Several of them are young talents, and they can't win or lose in poetry and learning, so they have to use their fists and feet, so it will lose the dignity of the Sven people." Why don't you learn from your own talents in public? ”
"Good!" Sui Yi slapped his hands violently, showing his unscrupulous style, "Childe's words are good, the Sven people should have the Sven people's way of competing, how can you be like you group of kings and eight lambs, you actually took advantage of the fact that the master did not bring helpers to bully the widows with the public, and you have the ability to wait for me to go back and call him a hundred and eighty people to do it again!" ”
Many people present have seen Sui Yi at today's poetry meeting, and his sudden sentence "Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road" has been recited among the scholars of the Hanmen, and has been hated by some official children. Although it is said that there is no first martial arts and no second, these arrogant sons never think that their poems are inferior, so they will open the ring on the spot and compete again, and ask Minjun to be the referee.
"Little Brother Liu, they are better than theirs, let's go in and see how my two little granddaughters dance?" Han Sheng invited.
"I can't ask for it." When Liu Yu heard it, he could see the dancing of the little sisters, which was much more interesting than a group of old men than poetry.
Sui Yi wanted to keep Liu Yu, so he pulled his shirt and said, "Brother Liu, there is no ...... How can I win? ”
"Solve the troubles you cause by yourself." Liu Yu didn't want to be the target of the public, so he shook off his hand and walked into the chess room with Han Sheng.
The excitement outside did not diminish in the slightest because of Liu Liniang's return to the room, on the contrary, a powerful debate began. The topic is whether the world is peaceful or the poor have nothing to rely on.
The official sons present accounted for the majority, and their views were almost the same, with only a few wise ones standing on Sui Yi's side. Although Liu Yu was in the room, he also understood that what the county lord of Namin wanted to listen to was the arguments of Sui Yi and others, people with political goals, and people who valued pragmatism.
The room was also happy, Han Sheng poured Liu Yu a cup of tea, and instructed the two little granddaughters: "Xiaoting, Xiaoyi, can you give Liu Gongzi a performance and let him evaluate it?" ”
The girl who has been working against Liu Yu "Hmph! With a playful smile, he said, "Grandpa, let's not perform for this crazy person." ”
Han Shenghahada smiled and said, "Little Brother Liu, it seems that you don't please my two little granddaughters." The old and middle-aged lost their sons, and regarded the two little granddaughters as the pearls of the palm, and they have always relied on them, it seems that you have to figure out your own way. ”
"Alas! Brother, you don't have a problem, where can I get a way. It seems that my popularity is really not good, and I have to make amends for the two girls here for the faux pas just now. Liu Yu got up and saluted.
The girl who spoke seemed to be very satisfied, raised her proud head and smiled: "For the sake of your sincere apology, I will give you a chance, if you can guess our sisters, who is the sister and who is the sister, we will dance for you." The girl turned her head to look at the girl who had been silent, and the girl over there also smiled and nodded in agreement with her arrangement.
Han Sheng said on the side: "Oh, little brother Liu, my little granddaughter just likes to embarrass people, they are exactly the same, and they like to dress up the same, sometimes even I can't tell which of them is who." It's even harder for you to tell the difference as an outsider. ”
Little granddaughter? Is this a deliberate reminder or a deliberate obfuscation? Liu Yu smiled on his face, pointed to the girl standing in front of her-for-tat and said, "You are a sister, she is a sister, am I right?" ”
The girl pouted and said: "You are blind, who will not be blind, how can there be half a chance, unless you say a reasonable reason, otherwise our bet is not counted." ”
Liu Yu said with a smile: "Just now my grandfather said, you sisters have to support each other since childhood, so my sister must take good care of my sister, when I entered the door just now, you didn't notice when your clothes were wrinkled, it was your sister who helped you smooth it, it can be seen that your sister is a careful person." As for you, you are a little willful, and you don't let people speak reasonably, it may be that Brother Han and Sister Han are used to pampering you on weekdays. ”
"Hahaha." Han Sheng couldn't stop laughing and said, "Little Brother Liu, you are really observant, Ting'er, are you convinced?" ”
"Grandpa, people...... It's not very capricious. The girl was a little distracted, and pulled Han Sheng's clothes and said coquettishly.
My sister walked up, stroked my sister's head and said, "You, you're naughty, and you can see it at a glance by Liu Gongzi." ”
was counted in public, and the girl wrinkled her nose at Liu Yu, and Liu Yue guessed that this was her little habit. Han Sheng reintroduced Liu Yu. My sister's name is Han Xiaoyi, and my sister's name is Han Xiaoting, and they are both sixteen years old now.
"Twenty-eight years is more beautiful than peach blossoms, it is really a flower-like age, two Miss Han, do you want to fulfill the bet just now and offer a dance?"
Han Xiaoyi pulled her sister, who was not very happy, and bowed to Liu Yu, saying, "This is natural, but unfortunately there is no music." ”
Han Sheng smiled: "Just dance a song, Liu Gongzi won't be surprised." ”
The two sisters are dressed in men's clothes, and they may not be the most beautiful when they dance, Liu Yu looks forward to the scene of the two girls dancing in neon clothes, which must be beautiful. At this moment, Li Mi stumbled open the door and came in, breaking Liu Yu's beautiful vision.
"Brother Liu, Brother Liu, if you can't do it, you're going to lose. You also know the knowledge of Brother Lu Dao Sui, and at this time, those sons and brothers are dumbfounded, so you can write two poems and let me take them out to deal with it. ”
The open door came from the noise outside, the people on the opposite side were arrogant, one by one, they were like a river, how brilliant the world was, and one poem after another was hung on the railing, like a badge showing off victory. Looking at the few people standing at the door, they all looked like defeated roosters. Occasionally say a few words, but because there is no good poem, I am also suppressed by the momentum of the opposite side.
Liu Yu said helplessly: "How to compose poetry at this time? Originally, there are winners and losers in the competition, and there is no shame in losing. ”
Sister Han Xiaoting wrinkled her nose and said, "Great talent, aren't you very knowledgeable?" Then make a poem to convince the people outside, so that our sisters will also be convinced. ”
For some reason, when Liu Yu saw the twin sisters, a poem appeared in his mind, and he smiled and said, "Two Miss Han, do you want to surprise the four with your poetic skills?" ”
"Liu Gongzi, the little girl and her sister don't know how to write poetry." Han Xiaoyi bowed slightly.
Liu Yu made a gesture of invitation and said, "Then I have to ask the two beautiful ladies to add fragrance to the red sleeves." ”
"Hmm."
Han Xiaoyi smiled and nodded knowingly. Slowly walking over the light lotus, using cinnabar ink to grind out the red ink, the beauty is on the side, the fragrant wind is blowing, Liu Yu picked up the pen, wrote a poem on the paper, and handed it to Han Xiaoyi.
"Childe, this is ......"
Liu Yu smiled: "I don't like noise, I have Miss Lao Han to do it for me." ”
"No, I want it too." Han Xiaoting didn't fall behind, and ran over quickly. And Liu Yu pointed to the ink on the table with a smile, Han Xiaoting stretched out her tongue and picked up the ink and grinded it.
Liu Yuti brushed up, and another simple five-character poem was presented on paper. Cinnabar red pen, a poem in one go. Even Han Sheng couldn't help but read it a few times, with an incredible look on his face.
A pair of little sisters each rolled up the paper and walked out of the room with Li Mi.
In this way, we have won today's competition! Min Gongzi, can you make a final judgment? "The person on the opposite side is even more arrogant. The poems describing Cathay's ascension are hung all over the railing on one side, and there are only one or two poems on this side, which are not brilliant. Dwarfed by.
"Who said that!" Han Xiaoting walked to the railing on the second floor and said loudly.
The two little scholars went to that station, although it was not a national beauty, but it could also make a hundred flowers gloomy. The sons and brothers here all came to see Liu Liniang today, and now they have met two such handsome twins, and they feel that this trip is worth it, pointing fingers.
"You must be women, right?" Lord Min looked the Han sisters up and down, "I don't know ......"
Han Xiaoting was a little annoyed and said, "Can't women attend, can't they compose poems?" As she spoke, she had already opened the paper in her hand, and a pair of blood-red cinnabar characters appeared in front of everyone.
"Plant a grain of millet in spring, harvest 10,000 seeds in autumn, and there is no idle field in the four seas......"
Everyone read the first three sentences together, and they all felt that this was a sentence describing the singing and dancing, and some even had smiles on their faces, thinking that these two moving little women were about to be embarrassed, but when they read the last sentence, the smile on their faces disappeared.
“…… The farmer starved to death. ”
The audience immediately resounded with an exclamation, and there were only two crosses in this poem. The content covers a lot, and almost every sentence has a layer of meaning, which makes people can't help but talk about it.
"Tricks!" The boy who took the lead on the opposite side, that is, the one who was about to shout and fight before, said coldly, "This poem is plain, it has to end with the farmer still starving to death, can it be that the grain in the fields of the world is blown away by the strong wind?" ”
Li Mi had Liu Yu's poems as the backing, and said eloquently: "What Your Excellency said is a little shallow. The grain produced by the peasants in a year of hard work is indeed enough to feed and have enough to eat. However, these grains have to pay both land rent and taxes, and there is not much left of all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes. ”
This remark is also pertinent, and many people who watch the excitement nod their heads one after another, and seem to agree with this argument. The situation on the scene has also been slightly deflected.
"I don't believe that the peasants who work hard will starve to death, and those who die of starvation must be those who are lazy."
The door was open, Liu Yue could clearly hear the words outside, and he couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, it seems that these housekeepers only know the wind and snow on weekdays, and they don't know anything about the outside world, and they don't know the suffering of the people. It's like an allusion I heard before, a foreign princess inspected the victims of the disaster, and when she heard that the hungry people had no bread to eat, she asked, "Can't you eat cake without bread?" It sounds ridiculous, but it's real.
At this time, Han Xiaoyi also unfolded the poem in his hand. This time was different from the last time, everyone read the poem in silence, and no one made a sound.
"I entered the city yesterday and came back with tears in my eyes. Those who are all over Luo Qi are not silkworm breeders. ”
Everyone almost subconsciously looked at their clothes, without exception, they were all silk and satin, but unfortunately none of them were woven by themselves.
Lord Min said with a bit of reverie: "If you are not a farmer and silkworm farmer, how can you understand the hardships of the period." The poems in the hands of the two girls were written by themselves? ”
"What do we do, and what do we don't?" Han Xiaoting puffed up.
"It seems that the master behind the two girls must be a great talent, and I admire him!"
Even Lord Min said so, and the rest of the people could only keep their opinions even if they had them. Winners and losers are decided.
