Chapter 52: The First Surprise
On the day of the palace banquet, because there were female dependents in the Beirong mission, and it was mixed with family matters, the holy decree of the harem female dependents in addition to the queen mother, only the second concubine and above attended the banquet; In addition, hundreds of officials above the third rank were ordered to bring their wives and children to attend the palace banquet, and officials below the third rank did not bring their families to attend the palace banquet, and there were also six students from the academy.
I don't know who let the wind go, saying that Beirong has the intention of harmony, I don't know if I want to marry my daughter again, the families of these three products are very entangled in their hearts, if they are afraid that their daughter will be favored by Beirong people, they will be sent to their relatives; But you can't afford to lose the number of etiquette in the palace.
The palace banquet was set up at the second quarter of Shen Zheng, and the families of hundreds of officials entered the palace one after another. Because of the participation of talented people in civil and military affairs, an open-air banquet was set up in the imperial garden for civil and military people to learn from each other.
Nanling Xiao, the son of the big house in the Zhennan Palace, shirked the banquet in the name of the wind and cold, so only Nanling Mo participated in the palace banquet; The second room is the second grade, and Mrs. Zhao brought her children to the palace banquet. Because of the difference between men and women, King Zhennan could not enter the palace with Nan Lingmo, but he couldn't rest assured, so he asked Nan Lingmo to follow Zhao and Nan Lingxuan into the palace together, and he and his brother Nan Nuan and others entered the palace first.
Zhao and Nan Lingxuan wanted to win everyone's attention, and when they knew that there was this literary test, they wanted to rush to the Imperial Garden. In front of the palace gate, Nan Lingmo saw the anxiety of the two of them, and said with a smile: "The second aunt and the third sister will go first, the eldest princess Rongzhen sent a message to let the county lord go to her palace." The two of them were overjoyed, and hurriedly saluted and hurried to the Imperial Garden.
The eldest princess Rong Zhen had already sent Bi Rong to wait at the Yongde Gate, and as soon as Nanling Mo entered the palace, she stepped forward and saluted: "I have seen the county lord, the eldest princess asked the slave maid to wait for the county lord here, the county lord, please come with the slave and maid!" Nan Lingmo nodded, and walked slowly behind.
"Bi Rong, how have your master been doing these days?" Nanling Mo was worried that the eldest princess Rong Zhen had already known the news of her marriage, and according to her temper, she was afraid that she would cry and grab the sky.
"Back to the county lord, the eldest princess's mood is fine, but she can't swallow the food for the past two days, she can't sleep restlessly, and she is a little anxious."
"That's good," Nanling Mo smiled, "Who is there with the eldest princess now?" ”
"Miss Lin came early in the morning, I'm afraid that I'm going to Nanyuan to see the martial arts test now, and now I'm accompanied by Miss Qiao, Miss Jing Er and Miss An."
As soon as Nanling Mo and his party arrived outside Bixia Palace, they heard laughter coming from inside, and their hanging hearts were put down, and they walked in with Birong.
Everyone stood up when they saw Nan Lingmo coming in, Nan Lingmo looked at the eldest princess Rong Zhen who was sitting on the main seat, and her complexion was acceptable, but she was a little bruised right now, I was afraid that she didn't sleep well. Nanling Mo was exempted from everyone's ceremony, and then sat down to taste tea together. Everyone was gossiping before and after, but the royal garden was very lively.
Imperial
All the talented people are composing poetry couplets, and the first poem is amazing. At this time, a man dressed as Beirong replied: "Dayan's profound cultural heritage really makes me admire it, and the poetry and songs of all the brothers are really admired by it." In the next is not talented, poetry and songs can not be on the table, only to take a shot that can still be taken, I don't know what you think? ”
Zhao Yuanjia bowed his hand and said: "The person who comes is a guest, please be a brother first." ”
Seeing that the man thought about it for a while, he said to him: "If there are insects in the water, it will be turbid, if there are fish in the water, it will be fishing, and the water will be water, and the rivers and lakes will be miao."
Zhao Yuanjia pursed his lips and smiled: "Under the wood is the foundation, above the wood is the end, the wood is wood, the pine and cypress are in the forest." ”
The other party arched his hand and continued: "Every inch of land is the temple, and the poem next to the temple says: Mingyue sends the monk back to the ancient temple." ”
Zhou Tao replied: "Shuangmu is a forest, the forest is forbidden, and the clouds are forbidden: the axe will enter the mountain forest at the right time." ”
The other continued: "Tuning the piano to tune the new tune, tuning the tune to tune the subtlety"
Zhou Tao continued to reply: "Planting flowers is a good seed, and planting a variety of fragrances"
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Everyone approved.
Right: "The water and land continents, the continents stop boats, and the boats travel on the continents can't do it." ”
Nan Lingxuan couldn't help it, and blurted out: "Tianxin Pavilion, the pigeon is dropped, and the pigeon is not flying." ”
Right: "Parrot Island, the boat on the continent, the water pushes the boat and the island does not flow." ”
Nan Lingxuan continued to answer: "Luoyang Bridge, under the bridge, the wind blows the bridge and does not move." ”
Right: "Listen to the rain, live in the rain, live in the rain and listen to the rain, the sound drops, listen, listen, listen." ”
Zhao Yuanjia replied with a smile: "Watch the tide, the tide comes, come to the tide pavilion to watch the tide waves, the waves are surging, watch, watch, watch." ”
Right: "The bow chief opens the bow, the archer opens the bow and shoots the arrow, and the arrows are all hit." ”
Qi Yufeng replied: "Muzi Li Li Mu, Li Carpenter Li Mu carved a bow, the bow is difficult to open"
Right: "Sishui River is the first, Sishi Xia is the second, the old man lives in Jiangxia, who is the first, who is the second." ”
Qi Yufeng quickly replied: "The three Confucians are in front, the three talented people are behind, and the kid is a Confucian, how dare he be in front, how dare he be behind." ”
Right: "The boy looks at the face, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ninety." ”
There was a chuckle from the crowd, and a twelve-year-old boy replied, "Sir, I am fatal, A, B, C, D, propyl, hexagen, xin, and nong." The young man said to Wan Langsheng, "Don't you Beirong have a better pair?" This pair of 10-year-olds would have answered. ”
The scribes of Beirong couldn't help but blush a little when they were said, and one of them thought for a long time and said: "Take Erchuan, line up eight formations, six out and seven capture, and forty-nine lanterns in Wuzhangyuan, just to reward three wishes." ”
No one answered for a long time, and for a while, the Beirong people were triumphant, and the Dayan side was silent. Suddenly, everyone heard a girl's voice replied sonorously: "Pingxi Shu, Dingnan Barbarian, East and North Rejection, the Chinese military tent has changed into a hexagram, and the water surface can be attacked with fire." ”
After hearing this, the faces of the Beirong people changed, "Okay! After a moment of silence, the cheers rang out.
Everyone looked at a woman wearing a half-mask on her face, dressed in a dark purple skirt with a multicolored tassel belt around her waist, hanging from the skirt. The woman walked into the crowd like a dazzling summer sun. The people of Dayan Kingdom were guessing the identity of this person, and someone here immediately saluted: "I have seen the Lord of Ren'an, the eldest princess of Rongzhen." I saw the eldest princess Rong Zhen walk out from behind the county lord of Ren'an, and said proudly: "What's the matter, isn't there a more wonderful couplet?" ”
Nan Lingmo continued: "This county lord has a pair here, please ask the Beirong scribe to have a match. She put her hands behind her back and said: "Pulsatilla, holding a halberd, crossing the seahorse, fighting lilies with horsetails and grass cowards, and returning to the dynasty is worthy of the general." Then he made a "please" gesture.
The Beirong scribe was stunned for a long time, no one could beat it, and the Beirong people said unconvinced: "I can't answer, I don't know if the county lord has a high opinion?" ”
Nanling Mo smiled slightly, and her lips lightly opened: "Red lady, insert a golden hairpin, wear silver flowers, five times better than peony and peony, and the Cistanche is out of the pavilion, just like mica." ”
Zhao Yuanjia was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "Since ancient times, heroes and beauties have been neat and tidy. After hearing this, everyone nodded and praised. Zhou Tao also secretly looked at this woman on the side, and suddenly realized that he underestimated this ugly-looking woman on weekdays, and put most of his energy on Nan Lingxuan.
After Nanling Mo and everyone drank tea in Bixia Palace, they heard the little palace maid who came to report that the poems in the imperial garden had entered a white-hot stage, and the good poems and good sentences continued, which attracted everyone's addiction. The eldest princess Rong Zhen led everyone to the imperial garden. I just happened to hear the couplet of the pair. When she saw that no one answered, she blurted out a response.
Someone in Beirong said unconvinced: "The county lord, the pair is just small, I don't know how the county lord's poetry and song are, it is better to make a poem, and there must be a name for the four seasons flowers and plants." ”
Nan Lingmo nodded in agreement, and then thought about it and didn't speak, after a tea time, I saw her walk quickly to the table as if she was confident, picked up the paper and brush on the table and wrote:
'Five hundred miles of Dianchi Lake, rushing to the bottom of the eye. Draped in the shore, the joy is boundless. Look: Dongyu Shenjun; Xizhu Lingyi; The north goes meandering; Nanxiang Su. Masters of rhyme, why not choose to win. Take advantage of the crab island Luozhou, comb the wind and fog. More frequent reeds, dotted with some green feathers Danxia. Don't be disappointed: fragrant rice all around; Ten thousand acres of clear sand; Nine Summer Hibiscus; Three spring willows.
Thousands of years of past, into the heart. Put the wine in vain, and sigh where is the hero. Think: Han Xi Lou ship; Tang standard iron pillar; Song wields a jade axe; Yuan crosses the leather sac. Great and great, with great effort to move mountains. The bead curtain is painted, and the roll is not as good as the twilight rain and clouds. The remnants of the monument were broken, and they were all paid with the smoke. Only won: a few pestles and bells; Banjiang fishing fire; Two rows of autumn geese; A pillow of cream. ’
A line of vigorous cursive script jumped on the paper, and everyone was shocked, sighed at its wonderful ideas, and rushed to recite it. "Bang bang," a burst of applause came, and everyone saluted when they saw Prince Beirong and His Royal Highness King Li coming together.
King Li took Nanlingmo's words and was shocked by her vigorous penmanship. He said softly: "Su Ri saw that you wrote Zhong Xiaokai in the academy, and he was full of vigor in his delicate spirit. Sure enough, you also have your own style in cursive. "Since King Li appeared in the academy that day, the mountain chief couldn't wait to invite him to be a teacher of scripture and history. When I saw his class, it was instantly full.
"The prince said with a smile, the work of the little and young children in the boudoir is just a work of brushwork, and it is not elegant," Nanling Mo said modestly, "The eldest sister and the younger sister of the courtiers are more sophisticated in calligraphy than the courtiers." King Li smiled slightly after hearing this, and the look of appreciation in his eyes all fell into the eyes of An Yurao, who had been secretly staring at him in the crowd since he appeared.
Helian Zheng was also pleasantly surprised when he saw Nanling Mo's words, squinting his eyes and looking directly at the woman in front of him. King Li sensed Helian Zheng's intentions, and took advantage of the situation to step forward and make a gesture of invitation: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Beirong, let's go, here will only make them stubborn, but they will not be able to make good works." ”
Helian Zheng nodded, followed King Li out of the crowd, walked halfway and turned his head to take a deep look at the direction where Nanling Mo was and turned to leave.
The eldest princess Rong Zhen pulled Nanling and Jing Sa and others and was about to walk to Nanyuan, and was about to go to Lin Chaoying. As soon as he walked halfway, he met the little eunuch who came to deliver the message. It is said that the time has come, and everyone is invited to go to the Yixian Hall for dinner. When Nanling Mo and Princess Rongzhen went to the Yixian Hall together, they accidentally touched the purse of the eldest princess Rongzhen, and Mei Xue next to her quickly squatted down and picked up the purse and handed it to Bi Rong, who hung it up again for the eldest princess Rong Zhen.
