Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Beautiful Misunderstanding
Lu Yu didn't know how many people's invitations he had rejected in that poem, but even if he knew that with his quiet character, he would not participate in this kind of entertainment in order to improve his reputation.
The third prince, Li Chengqian, had a heart for Lu Yu, but after hearing the poem of persuasion, it was not easy to be strong before the big exam.
On the other side, around the Meiyuan stage, countless young talents scratched their ears and cheeks, and they couldn't think of a smile that would fall in love with the city, and then laugh at the country. The corresponding verses came out, more than half an hour had passed, and the performance of the four Qing officials was about to begin, which made many talented people feel frustrated.
However, there are also many talented people who feel good about themselves and take out the poems they have prepared for a long time to read, and today is a poetry club, and it will not affect other talents to show their talents because of a broken poem.
A lot of good poems were sent to the back of the stage, hoping to win the favor of the four Qing officials.
In the room behind the stage, Ziyan, Hua Die, Lan Meng and Lu Zhu are sitting around drinking tea and reading poems, and there is a thick stack of poems in front of them, all of which are the proud works of those talents, who want to be recognized by the four Qing officials, so that they can make themselves famous in the capital.
"Bullshit, such a person dares to call himself a reader!"
Ziyan, who had a frosty face, threw a poem manuscript directly into the stove, and the smiling flower butterfly next to him grinned: "Sister Ziyan, if you burn this bullshit poem, won't you pollute the Fengshan spring water that we have so hard to get?" ”
Lan Mengyu pointed to the snow-white tea cup and danced, put cups of golden tea with a rich aura in front of them and said, "Sister Luzhu, how did you think of using that residual poem to embarrass those who are selling fame and reputation, have you already thought about the second half of the poem in your heart?" ”
Among the four Qing officials, if anyone can write the second half of the poem, it must be Luzhu.
It's not that they didn't want to go over to find Lu Yu, but after Lu Yu hung the persuasion poem at the entrance of the Tongwen Pavilion, no one was embarrassed to disturb Lu Yu at this time for the time being, otherwise they would have already found a way to invite Lu Yu and ask for the second half of the poem.
That half of the poem depicts a peerless beauty that makes women feel excited, as if everyone in this world will be crazy about this peerless beauty, they all have the careful idea of taking this poem for themselves, wanting to make themselves the peerless beauty in the poem, and only this poem can match them.
They even thought that if someone was willing to write such epic poems for them, they would not hesitate to get rid of this disturbing red dust and be with that person for a lifetime.
But after reading the poems written by many talented people, they put this unrealistic idea behind them, and perhaps such poems will never be seen again in this life.
Among the four Qing officials, Lu Zhu's literary talent is the highest, but this is not to say that the other three literary talents are not high, the four of them have undergone rigorous training since childhood, from poetry, song and dance to painting, musical instruments, and even small things such as tea making and appreciation, all of them are refined and understandable, but each person's focus is different, and there is no one who can absolutely overwhelm whom.
It's no secret that the four girls are secretly competing with each other, Lan Meng asked Luzhu to take the second half of the poem, thinking about embarrassing Luzhu, aren't you Luzhu known as a talented girl? It shouldn't be difficult to write the second half of the poem!
Ziyan also said: "That's right! If Sister Green Bead can't do it, I'm afraid no one in this world can make it. ”
"Those men say that women are not talented and virtuous, and we want to kick those stinky men under our feet and let them know that 'who says women are inferior to men'."
The three daughters, every word you say, are persuading Luzhu to make the second half of the poem.
The atmosphere of the four girls is harmonious on the surface, but in fact, everyone knows in their hearts that because of the existence of the other three women, their reputation has been reduced a lot, and no one can dominate each other.
"I have a complete "Beauty Song" here, how about sisters?"
Lu Zhu asked the maid to take a picture scroll, spread it out on the coffee table and said, "Sisters, let's comment on it and see how this poem is written?" ”
The other three women immediately gathered around and saw a few lines of poetry on the scroll, "There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent." A smile captivates the city, and then a smile captivates the country. Rather than know the city and the country? Beauty is rare! ”
The third girl was a little sluggish for a while, this poem felt different from what she had imagined before, there were the first half and the second half, obviously from one person, so where did the green beads of this poem go, it is worth thinking about the three girls.
What makes the three girls have some atmosphere is that in the blank space of this poem, there is a woman drawing, the woman is holding an umbrella, standing in front of a plum blossom and enjoying the snowy scene, they recognize at a glance who the woman is, who else can it be if it is not Luzhu, this is too shameless, doesn't it mean that the beauty described in this poem is Luzhu herself.
The third girl's heart is sour, of course, if the third girl is matched with this painting, the woman in the painting will also be herself, who doesn't want to be the beauty depicted in this poem.
"This can't be the "Beauty Poem" written by that Lu Gongzi!"
Ziyan reacted first, I am afraid that the only person who can write such a poem is the author himself.
Although Lan Meng on the side didn't like it in his heart, it was not easy to show it at this time, and said coldly: "I'm afraid that the peerless beauty in Lu Gongzi's heart may be someone else." ”
This sentence is equivalent to breaking the self-inflicted ruthlessness of Lu Zhu, Lu Yu's poem is not for Lu Zhu, Lu Zhu is seated, it is obviously wishful thinking.
Lu Zhu seemed to know that the third girl would say this, put a bottle of perfume in front of the third girl and said: "I met Lu Gongzi by chance in a fat powder shop, but Lu Gongzi was selling this perfume in the store, so I bought a bottle, and Lu Gongzi gave me this poem!" ”
Lu Zhu's words seemed to state a fact, and even Lu Yu's sale of perfume was not hidden, as if it was really Lu Yu who gave this poem to Lu Zhu after seeing Lu Zhu.
Lu Yu's family background doesn't need to be inquired to know, and the candidates who can live in the Tongwen Pavilion will not have a good family background, and it makes sense to meet Green Beads when selling perfume in the fat powder shop.
Hua Die picked up the bottle of perfume and smelled it, her brows furrowed, this perfume can only be said to be average, there is nothing outstanding.
But soon Hua Die's eyebrows raised again, and she thought of something, "Lu Gongzi is still a junior alchemist?" ”
Hua Die's words, even Lu Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then he thought that Lu Yu was able to take out the perfume This matter is not simple, and only the identity of an alchemist can say the past.
If this were the case, Lu Yu's identity would not be as simple as an ordinary monk.
In the monk's profession, alchemists and refiners are also very famous, monks need a lot of pills to cultivate, ordinary monks can only cultivate by buying pills at a high price, and alchemists themselves can refine and cultivate, and the speed of cultivation is much faster than that of ordinary monks, but these are not the most important.
The most important thing is that the alchemist is a monk that all major sects have to compete for, so the status of the alchemist among the monks is very high, and almost every alchemist can become an intermediate monk, or even a senior monk.
What it means to be a talented and young alchemist, the four girls know better than anyone else.
Don't look at the four women are all monks now, but the qualifications of the four women are too poor, for so many years, the treasures of heaven and earth have not been taken less, and the current cultivation is only the fourth or fifth layer of qi refining, if nothing else, when they die, the cultivation may not be able to break through the qi refining realm.
Of course, if the qualifications of the four daughters are excellent, they will not become Qing officials.
They are actually just ordinary people, they have only come to this point this year because of their talents and appearances, and they also have their own ambitions, and they also want to become a powerful monk, but their own qualifications limit the height of their development.
The three daughters of Ziyan are no longer entangled in whether this poem was really given to Lu Zhu by Lu Yu, which is not at the same level as knowing a young alchemist.
There are a lot of pills in Tianlan World that can improve their qualifications, but these pills are not accessible to them at all, even if they know a few alchemists, those alchemists will not take a fancy to them on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is impossible to spend the best pills for them to improve their qualifications.
Let's ask, who has the elixir to improve their qualifications if they don't keep it for themselves, will they give it to others?
A junior alchemist who has not yet grown up is different, a junior alchemist is an alchemy apprentice, the reason for the scarcity of alchemists is that it is difficult to cultivate in the early stage, and the initial stage of growth requires the consumption of a large number of natural materials and earth treasures, and it is impossible for ordinary alchemists to do it, and even those sects are unwilling to consume a lot of resources to train an alchemist from the beginning.
It is naturally impossible for Lu Yu to become an alchemist, judging from that bottle of perfume, Lu Yu's alchemy level can be regarded as an entry, and there is still a long way to go before he becomes a real alchemist.
Of course, what the fourth girl didn't know was that Lu Yu was not an alchemist at all, and the perfume was just something he bought from the main world, and he didn't even know what alchemy was.
It's a pity that the bottle of perfume is too deceptive, the refining process of the perfume is similar to alchemy in the Tianlan world, even if a real alchemist sees it, he will think that Lu Yu is an alchemist who has just started, and Lu Yu, a little white, will naturally not realize this.
On the other side of the villa, Lu Yu's "Beauty Song" also spread, and those pretentious talents were stunned one by one when they saw it, thinking it was just a broken poem, who would have thought that it was a complete poem, isn't this deceiving their feelings?
What makes them even more atmospheric is that you Lu Yu are not studying hard behind closed doors in the Tongwen Pavilion? is still hanging out a poem of persuasion at the door, how can I take out this poem again when I turn around, isn't this a slap in the face?
These people felt insulted, and they clamored one by one to compete with Lu Yu to see whose talent was high.
Li Chengqian, who was sitting in the hall, also saw the picture scroll, and he didn't feel half a point of joy in his heart, but became a little unhappy.
In his opinion, Lu Yu gave this poem to Lu Zhu because Lu Yu fell in love with Lu Zhu's beauty, and Lu Zhu painted himself in the picture scroll, which obviously meant that the two were happy.
Li Chengqian has always wanted to include Luzhu in the mansion, but Luzhu's identity made him dare not do so, you must know that the royal family cares most about his face, and the Qing officials in Qinglou are too sensitive, and even becoming a concubine will be criticized by the royal family, so Li Chengqian can only think about it in his heart.
What you can't get, others can't get!
Li Chengqian, who wanted to win over Lu Yu, suddenly became a little disgusted with Lu Yu, who he likes is not good, but he likes his own women, isn't this adding to his blockage?
Lu Yu didn't know that he was hated by Li Chengqian, and at the same time offended a large number of talented people who had never even met in person, which was really called a disaster.
