Chapter 155: Fan Lou's Persecution of Master Li
When Jiang Chen turned his head, a small and simple painting boat slowly rowed into the entrance.
There were not six bright lanterns hanging on the short poles at the four corners of this painting boat like other large painting boats, only three of them were hung, so Jiang Chen couldn't look down on Master Li's appearance at all.
I can only see a slim jade man with a concave and convex posture and a willow waist standing on the painting boat, singing and dancing;
However, on the judging boat, Zhou Bangyan, who promoted Dasheng Mansion (the highest music organ in the Northern Song Dynasty), saw Master Li's appearance seven or eight points clearly.
This made his old eyes look straight in an instant: the autumn water is the divine jade and the bone, and the hibiscus is like a face and a willow like an eyebrow! How can there be such a beautiful woman in the world? Isn't it the Moon Palace Chang'e?
If you can have a time with Chunxiao, it will be in vain!
Zhou Bangyan's breathing became heavy unconsciously.
The other officials and nobles on the judging ship were more unbearable than him, and they couldn't take their eyes off Master Li's graceful body.
Among them, Guo Haochu, the little grandfather of the Marquis of Anyuan Mansion and one of the principals behind Fan Lou, showed a lewd smile on his round face.
He not only wants Li Shishi to be his plaything, but also makes Li Shishi willing to become his cash cow and a tool for colluding with officials.
That's why he designed to frame Li Shishi's adoptive mother Li Yun, forcing Li Shishi to come to participate in this flower list.
And as long as Master Li participates in the flower evaluation list, he will be reduced to the status of a lowly prostitute from tonight, and from then on the sunset will fall into the trap he has carefully planned, and he will never be able to turn over.
Guo Haochu enjoyed this process of controlling one beauty after another.
The brain made up for the wonderful scene of embracing such a fairy in the world in his arms at night, he couldn't help but have a dry mouth, and picked up the tea bowl and drank it with a clatter.
……
Master Li, who was bent on repaying his adoptive mother Li Yun's debts, faced the faint eyes of the dignitaries like hungry wolves, and his brows, which had been sad, wrinkled even deeper.
After a short performance of his talent, he sat quietly in the shadow of the small painting boat.
Everyone in the world is chasing the light, but she, a poor orphan girl who lost her father since she was a child and was adopted, can only be in the shadows to have peace of mind and gain a little sense of security!
But the more withdrawn Master Li was, the more he was so tired of the world, the more he aroused the interest of men.
When it came to the singing session, countless dignitaries and nobles on the judging ship rushed to compose poems for her, hoping to be Master Li's guest tonight.
It's a pity that Master Li is like an old monk who has settled down, as if he hadn't heard of it.
She understands the rules, once she sings the poems of these dignitaries and dignitaries, and is ranked, she will accompany her that night, and she is reluctant and unwilling.
Even if she knows that she can't change this tragic fate, she hopes to meet someone who is different and knows her and understands her, otherwise she will be sorry for her innocent body that she has been guarding for sixteen years.
This kind of behavior of hers made the little grandfather Guo Haochu very satisfied, and after the painting boat approached, he stared at Master Li with burning eyes and praised:
"The golden lotus is narrow, and the Hunan skirt is slightly exposed; The willow waist is slender, and the green sleeves are half-folded...... The jade looks enchanting and the flowers are explained, and the fragrant beauty is fragrant! ”
"I don't know that this poem can enter the eyes of the teacher and the girl? Can you sing it? ”
After that, Guo Haochu lowered his voice and said: "Your mother smashed my priceless glass cup, and my son didn't embarrass her, let you sing the first words, you won't have to sweep the face of your son, right?" ”
Hearing this, Li Yun and his other adopted goddaughter, Li Qiaoqiao, turned pale for a while, and looked at Master Li with a bit of begging in their eyes.
Master Li looked at the brilliant starlight in the sky full of despair, and then lowered his head and plucked the strings as if he was resigned, and began to compose music for Guo Haochu's poems.
Seeing this, Guo Haochu laughed proudly.
When the others saw that Master Li had chosen the poem, they shook their heads in disappointment and couldn't wait to find other targets.
I hope to win the first prize of a debutant tonight, not only to enjoy the glamorous blessings, but also to brag to others in the future.
Zhou Bangyan, who promoted Dasheng Mansion, felt that Guo Haochu's poems were very ordinary, and wanted to compete with him several times for the qualification of Master Li to enter the curtain, but he was afraid of Guo Haochu's background, so he could only give up in the end.
Another beautiful woman Du Xiaoxiao was selected, and a poem was applauded by everyone.
At the same time, there are also beautiful words made by Cai Xue for Lu Shishi.
However, Cai Xue's mind at this time was not on Lu Shishi, a girl from Yanglou who had already succeeded.
After being praised by everyone, he was so proud that he leaned the painting boat next to Zhao Mingcheng's painting boat.
looked at Zhao Mingcheng with disdain and said: "Zhao Mingcheng, today's prosperity is so high, why don't you choose a little lady to write a poem?"
Are you afraid of the lack of poetry? Then let Mrs. Li help you, this official has heard that Mrs. Li is a rare talented woman, and she will definitely help you get a beauty, hahaha......"
In the rampant ridicule, Jiang Gaocen and Wei Liangji said in a strange manner: "Lord Cai's words are wrong, and the lower officials heard that Zhao Mingcheng is useless except for rubbing the inscription all day long.
has no talent and no virtue and is afraid of his wife, what you say is really embarrassing for him! ”
While speaking, Cai Xue and the others stared at Li Qingzhao who had put on the veil again, and they all felt jealous and unbalanced for Zhao Mingcheng to marry a stunning lady like Li Qingzhao.
Zhao Mingcheng's face was ugly for a while, and after glancing at Jiang Chen, he opened his mouth in annoyance and retorted: "Cai Xu, don't you feel ashamed when you talk about poetry in front of Lord Jiang?" ”
Well?
Jiang Chen glanced at Zhao Mingcheng lightly.
is a little unhappy with Zhao Mingcheng's behavior of causing trouble and pulling hatred for him.
And Cai Xue was directly stunned, staring at Jiang Chen angrily and said: "Jiang Chen, since Zhao Mingcheng is so optimistic about you, do you dare to compare with this official again?"
If you lose, you won't have to meddle in my affairs with him in the future, how about it? ”
"Again?"
Jiang Chen subconsciously looked at Master Li's small painting boat, feeling that this was a good reason to intervene horizontally to compose poems for Master Li.
So, he nodded, directly ordered the painting boat to row over, looked at Master Li who was sitting quietly in the shadows, and arched his hand:
"In Xia Jiangchen, seeing that the teacher girl has a noble air that is not stained by the mud, I feel something, and I take the liberty to write a poem for you, I wonder if the teacher girl will agree?"
"Jiang Chen?"
"He is the upstart Jiang Chen of the court who is a poet and a champion?"
"Oh my God! So young, so handsome! ”
"If only he were willing to compose poems for me, then I would definitely invite him as a guest tonight!"
With Jiang Chen's self-registration, both sides of the river bank were instantly quiet, and the little ladies of the draft stared at him with green eyes in unison.
