Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Gentleman Is as Gentle as Jade
Chen Xuanyang agreed to go to Yanmenglou to participate in the poetry meeting together.
Shen Qiuran and his wife were excited.
Along the way, Shen Qiuran chatted about his past and ideals, Chen Xuanyang occasionally interjected a few words, and his mother-in-law Su Chuyue was smiling, listening quietly, without speaking, but her personality was shy.
……
Liuzhou, Yanmenglou, here is some distance from Xiaoyu Mountain.
When Chen Xuanyang and the three of them arrived here in a carriage, the sky was already dark, and the stars opened their wistful eyes and began to blink playfully, twinkling in the night sky.
Chen Xuanyang looked up at the pavilion building of Yanmenglou, fresh and elegant, compared to the magnificent architectural style of Xingxing, Chen Xuanyang really likes Yanmenglou.
At this time, there were many guests in Yanmenglou, and there were many cultivators among them.
The seats in the Yanmeng Building are arranged in the shape of a ring.
The table was no longer a wooden table, but a small meandering river suspended in mid-air constructed with spells, connecting all the seats.
"Wow, that's a nice setup." Su Chuyue's eyes flashed.
"Is this the method of the cultivator, it is a miraculous skill." Shen Qiuran sighed.
Seeing this, many literati who came to the meeting had already begun to chant poems.
A cultivator also immediately exclaimed: ", this technique, I'm afraid only the Lord of the Liu Mansion can do it!" ”
The literati and elegant guests around him looked at him with disdain.
People hold poetry meetings here, how can you get into such a rough person as you who is full of rough words?
Soon, all the guests were seated.
In the main room of Yanmeng Building, a young woman with a graceful figure and a jade blue dress was lying on an elegant bench.
"Who are the guests who are here today, can you count them?"
In front of her, a woman in a blue dress bowed slightly and said: "Back to the landlord, I have already counted it with the quasi-high-grade magic weapon Qingling Mirror, many of them are literati and elegant guests who have not cultivated, and there are few cultivators among them, and those cultivators do not look like the top ten people of the gate sect in Liuzhou, they should all be scattered cultivators in the world." ”
"Well, is the young lady of Qingyu here?"
The blue-robed woman responded: "The young man Qingyu replied earlier that he would come, but I haven't seen him at this time, but ...... There is also one landlord who should be interested. ”
"Oh?"
The woman on the bench sat up slightly and asked curiously, "Who?" ”
The blue-robed woman said with a smile: "Dean of Qionghuai Academy, Chen Xuanyang." ”
As soon as these words came out, the woman on the bench, that is, Liu Yuexi, the owner of Yanmeng Building, suddenly trembled.
"Are you sure?"
The blue-robed woman nodded: "Aren't some Jianghu cultivators rumored that Chen Xuanyang is wearing a white feather robe and behaves elegantly, when his subordinates checked with the Qingling Mirror just now, they happened to see a person, which is the same as describing Chen Xuanyang's characteristics, so his subordinates think that he should be here." ”
Liu Yuexi raised her eyebrows slightly: "If it is really him, then the level of this poetry meeting is not ordinary, and I will personally preside over the poetry meeting." ”
The blue-robed woman was shocked when she heard this, "Lou ...... Landlord, even if Chen Xuanyang can destroy the Star Picking Pavilion alone, but the Star Picking Pavilion is ranked seventh, and our Yanmeng Building is ranked sixth, it shouldn't be that you will personally preside over the poetry meeting, right? ”
Liu Yuexi smiled slightly: "No, you are wrong, this Chen Xuanyang is not just as simple as destroying Lin Tianwei, do you know that in the previous secret realm, Chen Xuanyang obtained a kind of spiritual fruit opportunity, and the Great Elder of Lingyun Palace, Zhu Wucheng, wanted to snatch it, but after confronting Chen Xuanyang for a while, he retreated." ”
"Zhu Wucheng is very fine, so naturally he has seen something, and even he has to back down a thing or two, so how can this Chen Xuanyang be simple?"
The blue-robed woman was stunned when she heard this.
Liu Yuexi got up and tidied up her dress, and then walked out with a smile.
In the pavilion, literati and guests from all walks of life discussed with each other and talked and laughed.
At this time, a woman wearing a jade blue dress with extraordinary charm walked out barefoot on the red carpet.
Everyone present stood up and saluted.
"Meet the Lord of the Willow Pavilion."
Chen Xuanyang slowly got up and smiled towards Liu Yuexi: "Chen Xuanyang of Qionghuai Academy came to pay a visit. ”
As soon as these words came out, all the cultivators around them turned their heads to look at Chen Xuanyang in shock.
"This is the dean of Qionghuai Academy who appeared out of thin air and became famous overnight?"
"This person's dress is similar to the rumors from the post station, and it is indeed an elegant temperament in the bones of the fairy wind road."
"It seems that Qionghuai Academy has not been officially recognized by various sects in Liuzhou, right?"
"Whatever, just break it up, it's a matter of time before you admit it."
The cultivators around them whispered, but the ordinary literati had never heard of Chen Xuanyang.
Liu Yuexi's beautiful eyes looked at Chen Xuanyang in front of her, her eyebrows moved slightly, and her expression was a little seductive.
"I can't see that Dean Chen is also a person who likes literature and is knowledgeable!"
Chen Xuanyang smiled and said nothing.
Liu Yuexi waved her soft jade hand and motioned for the guests to take their seats.
Liu Yuexi sat on the main seat facing the gate.
"Ladies and gentlemen, although the little woman is a Dharma practitioner and is busy cultivating, she also advocates poetry and poetry in her spare time, and the elegance of the literati, so she took advantage of the spring season to set up a poetry meeting in the smoke and rain, and invited literati and artists from all walks of life to come to the meeting.
Many people were fascinated by Liu Yuexi's appearance.
Chen Xuanyang has seen more beautiful women on the earth, and he doesn't feel anything.
He glanced at Shen Qiuran next to him, this scholar was also calm, his eyes kept staring at the winding water suspended in mid-air in front of him, and he didn't glance around.
Then I only heard Liu Yuexi continue: "The little girl has prepared a sumptuous dinner for the distinguished guests who have come from afar, please participate in the poetry meeting while enjoying it. ”
Suddenly, with a wave of her hand, a lilac flower umbrella appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Its umbrella shield is composed of a piece of stamen, and various colors are intertwined with colorful brilliance, but at this time there are some imperfections and cracks.
When the flower umbrella is lightly opened, it is like a gorgeous flower blooming from a 10,000-year-old peach tree.
When closed, it transforms into an umbrella sword, carrying a wisp of sword aura.
Suddenly, the eyes of all the cultivators lit up.
"It's ...... Quasi-high-grade magic weapon!? ”
Liu Yuexi said with a smile: "This thing is called 'Flower Rain Falling', it is a quasi-high-grade magic weapon with both offense and defense, unfortunately, it has been damaged, and the actual grade has fallen to the middle grade, but it can still be repaired, this time the little woman will take it out as one of the rewards of this poetry meeting." ”
Then she waved her hand again, and the blue-robed woman next to her was holding a beautiful wooden plate wrapped in red cloth with two tokens on it.
"These two items are the identity cards of my Yanmenglou, there is only one, those who have this token, from now on, the consumption of Yanmenglou can be exempted, and they can receive the top treatment."
"Finally, I believe that all the literati and elegant guests know, is the Tiandu token, with this token can be directly exempted from the previous exams, straight into the temple examination, this thing is a little woman a friend gift, and the Tiandu token is the current saint personally distributed to the lower levels to award to the capable bachelor, the emperor's order is on the top, long-term validity, no need to worry about being deducted from the hat of fraud, and my friend handed it over to me, so that if I meet a good talent, I will give this thing to that person, so the little woman will take advantage of this poetry meeting, awarded to the worthy person."
She stretched out three slender fingers and a seductive smile on the corner of her mouth.
"The top three people in this poetry meeting can choose any one of these three items to take away, and the highest ranking will be preferred."
Suddenly, the surrounding guests became agitated.
Chen Xuanyang looked at the flower umbrella, a quasi-high-grade magic weapon with both offense and defense, it was really a big deal, so it seems that there may be a better quasi-high-grade inside this Yanmeng Building, but this flower umbrella, Wen Zhiyan should like it, it is better to take this opportunity to take it as a birthday gift for her.
It doesn't matter if it's damaged, anyway, Wen Zhiyan himself is a quasi-top-grade refiner, plus Qionghuai Academy has a complete vein of apparatus stones, so it's no problem to repair a quasi-top-grade one.
Shen Qiuran looked at the Tiandu token with blazing eyes.
At this moment, Liu Yuexi clapped her hands.
Then a large group of maids came with a variety of delicious dishes, and the plates were placed on the suspended stream, and each dish floated down the stream to the various seats, and when they arrived, they stayed still.
Everyone was amazed.
"Okay, the poetry will begin, everyone enjoy and participate, the first game, the competition for poetry, can also be a literati sentence, by one person to read the last sentence, the next person to the next sentence, each person fifteen breath time, if the overtime can not come up, it will be regarded as elimination, the elimination will concentrate on enjoying the delicious, watch others play, the next round of competition will not have to participate, and if it is the right one, and let the previous one be satisfied, then think of a sentence to let the latter continue to come."
"Okay, the rules are clear, then let the little girl come first, and then start with the VIP on the far left!"
Liu Yuexi pointed to Shen Qiuran next to Chen Xuanyang.
Shen Qiuran was a little caught off guard, "Ah, me? ”
I only heard that Liu Yuexi had already read out the last sentence.
"You say, long and gentle, and leaning against the secluded fence."
This is a literati sentence!
Liu Yuexi looked at Shen Qiuran, and Su Chuyue next to him silently cheered him up with her eyes.
After five breaths, Shen Qiuran slowly spoke: "Later, the lonely boat crossed coldly, and the smoke and rain were slightly cool. ”
Wow –
Suddenly, there was an uproar among the literati and artists around them, and they applauded one after another.
Su Chuyue happily sandwiched a piece of elbow meat and rewarded it to Shen Qiuran.
Liu Yuexi's beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and she carefully tasted Shen Qiuran's elegant sentences, the more she tasted them, the better they became.
Chen Xuanyang also nodded approvingly.
The long steps are graceful, and leaning on the secluded fence, the fresh and elegant environment and the emotions of men and women snuggling up to each other or walking with friends are intertwined to paint a perfect picture.
The lonely boat is cold, the smoke and rain are slightly cool, this sentence is to say that he is alone and adrift, helpless, and feels desolate, which forms a strong contrast with the previous sentence, wonderful!
"You've passed, go ahead!" Liu Yuexi nodded with a smile.
Shen Qiuran glanced at Chen Xuanyang, "Senior, then I'll continue with Lord Liu's elegant sentence, you have to pick it up!" ”
Su Chuyue didn't participate, and jumped directly to Chen Xuanyang.
Chen Xuanyang smiled slightly, quite confident, I am a people's teacher can give you a little show, but I am stumped?
"Please."
Shen Qiuran thought for a moment and then read out a sentence.
"You say, the cold house cooks wine, and the snow falls on the plum chapter."
Suddenly, the people around them fell into deep thought.
Chen Xuanyang's eyes were slightly empty, and he gave the next sentence after two breaths.
"Later, Jun was in Canghai, and I was in Xiaoxiang."
Suddenly, thunderous applause rang out all around.
Some literati couldn't help but stand up and applaud.
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
"The couplet between the lord of Liulou and the brother is one and the same, a beautiful sentence of snuggling up to each other, and a sadness of being alone in a foreign land, and then this couplet is even more powerful, saying that the difference is so immersive, which is empathetic."
Some people even made this elegant sentence into a poem.
"To the poetry of Hanlu wine, smell the snow and fall plum chapter, and then Jun Canghai, and I am in Xiaoxiang...... Wonderful, wonderful! ”
Shen Qiuran was also quite surprised, "The predecessors are very literate. ”
"You're not bad either." Chen Xuanyang smiled slightly.
Liu Yuexi glanced at Chen Xuanyang, with a gentle smile on her face.
"Dean Chen, please!"
Chen Xuanyang glanced at a literati next to him, and that person's expression was already starting to get nervous.
Why don't other literati explode like this at the beginning, and let the rest of the game play?
Only those Dharma cultivators watched the excitement happily.
As early as Liu Yuexi's first sentence, they felt that they were not worthy of participating, so it was better to abstain earlier, enjoy the food, and have fun.
"This friend, don't be nervous, don't worry, I'm going to make a seven-character poem next, I'll make four sentences in the upper couplet, and you will play the fourth game in the lower couplet, how about it?"
Chen Xuanyang's words almost made the literati vomit blood.
It's hard for people to say one sentence, and you can come up with four sentences at once, creating evil!
The man's facial features were almost twisted, and his face was extremely ugly.
The crowd around them burst out laughing.
Liu Yuexi, who was in the main seat, had been looking at Chen Xuanyang, and she had the impression that most cultivators would only fight and kill, and they were murderous and majestic.
Wu Ke is unique, destroying the sect with one hand, and standing proud; Wen Ke is a gentleman, gentle as jade, humble and polite.
