Chapter 3 Masterpieces
In the Qin Mansion, in the boudoir.
Qin Nan wrote the last word on the rice paper, put the pen on the pen stand, and admired it carefully, and suddenly remembered a few peach trees in the courtyard, which was the most gorgeous time to bloom.
Qin Nan was about to go out to enjoy the flowers on a whim, but the door was suddenly pushed open, and a young man with a majestic spirit and a look similar to her strode in.
As soon as Qin Yue saw Qin Nan, he immediately said in surprise: "Sister, do you know who came to the mansion to listen to today?" ”
At this time, Qin Nan's heart was tied to those peach trees, so he was naturally in no mood to guess the riddle.
But Qin Yue blurted out under excitement: "The people who came to listen today are Zuo Zongyuan, the son of Zuo Yushi, and Li Zhonghong, the son of Li Shangshu. ”
Then he lowered his voice, but the surprise in his voice could not be suppressed.
"There is another noble person among them that you would never have imagined, and the fifth prince is also here."
Qin Nan also looked slightly surprised: "Fifth prince? ”
"yes." Qin Yue smiled: "I was also shocked when I heard it. ”
Then he said: "But the five princes are kind to others, they don't have any arrogance, and they are also a person who likes poetry, and they have a good conversation after everyone gets acquainted." ”
At this time, Qin Nanqi said: "In this case, why don't you go and entertain the distinguished guests well, what are you doing here?" ”
"It's not because of Li Gongzi's words." Qin Yue looked a little helpless: "When everyone was talking, Li Gongzi suddenly mentioned the little sister, saying that the little sister has both the appearance of the country and the talent of sweeping the eyebrows, so everyone admires it, and even the fifth prince wants to see you." ”
After hearing this, Qin Nan raised his eyebrows slightly, and said unhappily: "You listen to the Tao, how can there be any reason for me to attend?" ”
Qin Yue hurriedly laughed and said, "I naturally know that I didn't come to invite my little sister over." ”
"And what are you going to do?"
Qin Yue said: "Then Li Gongzi also knows that today is not the time, so he wants to invite his little sister to participate in the Spring Poetry Appreciation Meeting held at Qianjing Lake in three days." ”
Qin Nan wanted to excuse himself, but thinking that since the eldest brother came over to pass the word, he must have received his father's consent, so it was difficult to excuse himself, so he thought for a while and nodded slowly.
Qin Yue's expression became relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Since you agreed, then I will go over first." ”
Qin Nan said: "I also want to see the peach blossoms in the courtyard at this time, let's go together." ”
Qin Yue was about to leave, when he suddenly saw rice paper spread out on the desk in the room, and there seemed to be a poem written on it, but he didn't know if it was written by the little sister herself or copied. However, he also knows his sister's temperament, and he writes poems and lyrics just for his own amusement, and he doesn't like to spread them.
His heart moved, and he said to Qin Nan: "I seem to have left the jade pendant here with you yesterday, you go first, I'll look for it." ”
Qin Nan didn't doubt it, nodded slightly and set off towards the courtyard.
After Qin Nan walked out of the room, Qin Yue came to the desk in a few steps and looked at the poems on the rice paper.
And this poem he has never heard of, it is obviously a new work of Xiaomei.
He was overjoyed, gently rolled up the rice paper, and hurried out of the room.
Through several corridors, he came to an elegant courtyard.
As soon as the courtyard door was opened, several handsome talents smiled and said, "Brother Qin is back." ”
One of the talented men who behaved freely and looked forward to brilliance greeted him.
"I wonder if Miss Qin agreed to participate in the poetry meeting?"
Qin Yue smiled: "My sister agreed." ”
Li Zhonghong suddenly smiled, and hurriedly gave a salute: "There is Brother Lao Qin." ”
Immediately, his gaze fell on the scroll of paper in Qin Yue's hand, and said, "What is Brother Qin holding in his hand?" ”
Qin Yue raised the scroll of paper in his hand and said modestly: "This is a new poem by the sister-in-law. ”
After hearing this, everyone stood up one after another, and they all waited eagerly.
Although Qin Nan's talent has spread in the capital, as for how high her talent is, little is known, all because Qin Nan is indifferent by nature, and her poems and articles are hidden in the depths of the boudoir, and there are few works in the world.
Although Li Zhonghong admired Qin Nan's talent, a discerning person could see at a glance that he admired Qin Nan very much, so it was inevitable that there would be some exaggerations between his words.
Now that Qin Yue has her new work in her hand, this has aroused everyone's interest, and even the fifth prince Zhou Qi is looking at Qin Yue with interest.
Qin Zhidao looked at Zhou Qi and shouted, "Yue'er." ”
Qin Yue immediately walked quickly to the desk, put the paper roll on the table, and unfolded the paper roll.
As the paper scroll slowly unfolded, Juanxiu's elegant handwriting immediately caught Zhou Qi's eyes, and then he read slowly: "Last year, in this door today, the peach blossoms on the human face were red. The face of the person does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze. ”
When Zhou Qi first read it, he only felt that this poem was catchy, its form and content were fresh and chic, and then I tasted it carefully, and I felt that the poetry was timeless and the aftertaste was endless.
After hearing this, the others couldn't help but show a hint of shock in their eyes. This poem may seem simple and ordinary, but it would not be possible for them to compose a similar poem.
After a long time, Zhou Qicai sighed: "This poem is simplified, and it is touching with emotion, Miss Qin deserves to have the talent to sweep her eyebrows." ”
Qin Zhidao is full of doubts, he knows Qin Nan's talent, and he is also a leader in the younger generation.
But in his opinion, her talent was not enough to write such a poem.
It's just that this poem is indeed written by Qin Nan himself, and this poem has never been heard of before.
Seeing Zhou Qi appreciating it so much, Qin Zhidao could only suppress the doubts in his heart, and bowed slightly: "The little girl is not talented, and she can't afford to be praised so much by the fifth prince." ”
Just when everyone was shocked, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open, and a beautiful girl appeared in the courtyard.
Even in the face of so many people all of a sudden, the girl still seemed down-to-earth and generous, without the slightest restraint.
She gave a salute and said slowly, "I've seen my father, I've seen all my sons. ”
When everyone saw the girl, they couldn't help but marvel in their hearts, and then they all stood up and saluted in return.
And Li Zhonghong was even more pleasantly surprised, his eyes seemed to be attracted by a magnet, and he could no longer leave Qin Nan.
Qin Yue was taken aback, and couldn't help asking, "Little sister, why are you here?" ”
Qin Nan's face sank, looking at the poems on the desk, he couldn't help but ask, "Why did the eldest brother take it without telling him?" ”
Qin Yue's expression immediately became a little embarrassed, and when he was at a loss, Li Zhonghong involuntarily stepped forward and saluted: "I've seen senior sister." ”
Li Zhonghong also studied under Kong Wenshun, so he and Qin Nan can be regarded as brothers and sisters.
Qin Nan's face was flat, and he replied, "I've seen Senior Brother Li." ”
Li Zhonghong forcibly held back the excitement in his heart and said with a smile: "Senior sister, you don't have to blame Brother Qin, such a masterpiece, anyone will be moved." ”
Qin Nan couldn't help but sigh: "What I blame is not that my brother spread this poem, but that he blames him for not telling him, so I don't know the reason for the matter, but I am afraid that it will cause misunderstanding." ”
"Misunderstanding?" Everyone looked at Qin Nan puzzled.
Qin Nan explained: "I copied this poem, and the author is someone else. ”
Qin Yue was shocked when he heard this: "This ...... Didn't you write this poem, little sister? ”
Qin Nan said slowly: "Today, I was traveling with Master Confucius by the Yudai River, and I met a son on the way, and this poem was written by that son. I just loved it in my heart, so I copied it on paper. ”
Only then did everyone know that there had been an oolong, but everyone was extremely curious about the boy in Qin Nan's mouth.
Zhou Qi already likes poetry, and he appreciates this poem very much, and he wants to get to know the author of this poem, so he can't help but ask: "Miss Qin, do you know that son?" ”
Qin Nan saw that Zhou Qi was noble and knew his identity, so he wanted to give a big gift.
Zhou Qi hurriedly stopped and said with a smile: "Today is just a gathering of friends, Miss Qin is not visible." ”
Qin Nan saw the situation and no longer insisted, and then shook his head slightly: "Master Confucius and I don't know that son. ”
Zhou Qi couldn't help but be a little disappointed: "Then Miss Qin knows her name?" ”
Qin Nan shook his head again: "At that time, Master Confucius's family had an urgent matter, and we had to say goodbye to that son in a hurry, and we didn't have time to inquire about his name, until now Master Confucius still has regrets. ”
While everyone was disappointed, a family member suddenly hurried to the front of the courtyard.
The family ran in a hurry, standing in front of the courtyard gate and panting, and looked flustered, as if he had encountered something that made him difficult.
Qin Yue reprimanded: "Why are you so flustered? ”
The family looked at Qin Yue and stopped talking, and finally said, "Someone asked to see the master." ”
Qin Yue rebuked again: "Didn't I tell you that my father will no longer see guests today?" ”
The family Ding muttered: "But the person who came said that he must see the master today, otherwise he will not leave." ”
Qin Yue said angrily: "Who is so bold and dares to spread wild in the Qin Mansion? ”
Jia Ding hurriedly bowed his head and replied: "The person who came is Su Shi, the second son of General Su's Mansion." ”
