Chapter 847: Oiran

The Mingyue Lake Poetry Club of Dongyue Mansion is famous far and wide, every time the poetry meeting comes, it is ten thousand empty alleys, the lanterns are all on the ground, the carved buildings and painted boats abound, the number of talented people is innumerable, and the young talents who are famous in the reputation of Qinglan Elementary School will gather here.

On the wide and luxurious painting boat, the third prince of the city lord's mansion smiled and said to Han Ming, and Concubine Yi joked: "The triennial imperial examination is after the Mingyue Lake Poetry Meeting, or in Changdu, which is more than 100 miles away from Dongyue Mansion, which attracts a large number of scholars, all of whom come to this poetry meeting to test the water." Of course, those poor and rotten Confucians, who boast of being high-minded, will not tell the idea of seeing the Oiran or fantasizing about receiving two beauties who admire their talents!"

Hearing this, Han Ming showed a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, the third prince of the City Lord's Mansion was young, but he was interesting, somewhat similar to him, looking down on those sour scholars who were full of benevolence and morality, but their hearts were not very clean.

"The country values literature over military force, and the scholarly status of the clan family is very high, and if any military attache provokes them here, it will easily be raised to the level of the entire scholar, and a lot of criticism will be provoked. The third prince of the City Lord's Mansion sighed, then pointed to the boats not far away, and as soon as his tone changed, he smiled again: "But, in the final analysis, these scholars are cocooned and self-bound, full of benevolence and morality, and follow the way of the sage, even if they have a position of power, they can only be honest and upright, but they can't be like other people's righteous and bright lackeys fighting cocks, singing and dancing, Qinlou Chu Pavilion, at least don't dare on the surface, where is it like we are free and happy!"

The white-bearded old man refilled his wine glass, drank it to himself, and said: "Since ancient times, there have been gains and losses, all wealth is the smoke of the past, but the old man feels that the third prince is in the clouds and mist, and he can't come out." ”

"Oh, what does the old gentleman mean by that!" the third prince looked at the white-bearded old man with some doubts.

"Ordinary and rich, although **, but after all, it will not last long, the third prince is not going to be happy, be a gentleman, and spend his life leisurely?"

The third prince of the City Lord's Mansion was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then said with a smile: "The old gentleman said this, maybe he wants the kid to make meritorious contributions, or to gain fame and reimburse the country!"

"Hahaha, no, no, worldly fame and wealth, are all very empty, even this Qinglan country, is not eternal, little boy, you look at these now, if you look back in a hundred years, you will find that what you are thinking now is too not worth mentioning!"

"Changsheng!" The third prince read out the two words on the table, his face was suddenly full of doubts, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head and smiled: "Didn't the old gentleman want the kid to become a Taoist monk, drill the mountains and old forests, and go to find immortals, but are there immortals in this world?"

"Since this is the case, the little boy gave birth to a wisdom root, and he is a seedling who cultivates immortals and asks, but he is willing to go with the old way, if it is protected by heavenly fortune, although he cannot be immortal, he can also live forever!"

"Old man, forget it, the kid is still young, he hasn't experienced the changes of the world, he hasn't even asked for a lady in the main house, and he hasn't even thought of becoming a monk!" The third prince shook his head like a rattle, decisively refused, and then thought about it and added: " It is said that more than 100 years ago, the first generation of Oiran on Mingyue Lake, one of the two at once, or a pair of sisters, surnamed Feng, after getting the name of Oiran, was taken away by the gods! It is said that it was from then that the Oiran of Mingyue Lake gradually became famous, and it has evolved to the present!

"Haha, the old man has also heard of this kind of thing, saying that since then, the water of this Mingyue Lake has been a lot clearer and sweeter, and it is the tears shed by the two sisters of the Oiran Feixian that make the lake water so, but according to the old man, it is completely a group of people who don't know what an immortal is, and it is not worth believing. The white-bearded old man stroked his beard and smiled, and then said: "Accepting apprentices is just a whim-of-the-moment impulse, since you don't want to, then forget it!"

The white-bearded old man was also refreshing, and he was not much frustrated when he was rejected, he shook his head and smiled, which can be regarded as just doing this matter of accepting apprentices.

"On a whim during the foundation building period, it can be regarded as a great opportunity to accept him as a disciple of the Three Spirit Roots, but he refused it, if he knew it in the future, he would definitely regret his intestines!" Concubine Yu said to Han Ming with a smile.

"It's not necessarily that he missed the opportunity, he has a three-spirit root, how is his cultivation, the opportunity to build a foundation is less than one in a hundred, and the longevity of practicing qi is only one hundred and twenty or thirty years old, instead of working hard all day long, it is better to enjoy wealth and wealth, practice some internal martial arts, strengthen the body, and it is not difficult to live to a little more than a hundred, anyway, they all live for so long, instead of working hard all their lives, it is better to eat, drink and have fun, and be a 'waste'!" Han Ming sent the sound back.

"Hmph, you are a crooked reason, according to what you say, your spiritual root is still the four spiritual roots, what are you still cultivating, why don't you go to the mortal world to enjoy the glory and wealth, and you have been cultivating the Dao fake baby!" Concubine Yu wrinkled her little nose and snorted softly.

"People are not different, they can't be generalized, how can this ordinary boy compare with me, when I was as old as him, I began to trek from the Wu Kingdom to the Jiang Kingdom, and I have wandered between life and death several times!" Han Ming said with rare pride, and then seemed to remember something, and added: " By the way, it should be this country, when I passed by here, it was only the fifth layer of the Qi training period, and I was chased and killed by three in the middle of Qi training, and then I escaped by hiding in the mud at the bottom of the lake, and I still remember the faces of those three people!"

"Oh, there is such a thing, now that you have cultivated, you don't plan to take revenge?"

"More than a hundred have passed, if those three people hadn't built a foundation, they would have died of old age, where could I still take revenge, and what identity I have now, I won't specifically trouble these three enemies who don't know if they are not there, of course, if I happen to meet them, I will naturally not spare them!" Han Ming shook his head and smiled, then pointed to the distance, and said with a smile: "Concubine, look, all the talented people of the poetry club have arrived, and then it seems that they will start fighting poetry, striving to win the blue eyes of the Oiran, and be able to enter the boudoir to discuss poetry." ”

"So many people are merry and talented people competing for a place, how beautiful and heavenly this Oiran looks like, this is a little curious. Concubine Yu stretched out her little head and looked over there, her face full of curiosity.

"Actually, the reason why each generation of Oiran is so famous is not because of her appearance, but mainly because of the talent of Oiran is extremely high, which can provoke so many scholars to come over, and they all say that if women are allowed to participate in the imperial examination, this Mingyue Lake Oiran will definitely be able to enter the top three!" The third prince on the side walked over with a smile, and then added: " And the most famous thing about this Oiran is another thing, it is said that any talented person who has met with Oiran alone will definitely be on the list in the imperial examination next year, and this has been going on for many years!"

"Oh, it's funny that there's such a thing!" Han Ming's face showed a hint of surprise.

"Then I really want to see what kind of person this Oiran is!" said Concubine Yu with a grin, and then gently took off the skull mask on her face, revealing a graceful and handsome face below.

Looking at Concubine Yu's appearance, Han Ming showed a trace of weirdness on his face, and then shook his head with a smile, he guessed what Concubine Yu was going to do, eighty percent of them were childlike and wanted to participate in the poetry meeting.

"Hey, I always thought it was a beautiful woman I saw and pity, but I didn't expect it to be such a handsome brother!" The third prince looked at Concubine Yu's face, and his face was suddenly full of surprise, as for the white-bearded old man, his face was also full of strange colors.

"Hmph, the boat is going over there, my son wants to fight poetry!"

The third prince looked Concubine Yu up and down, thought for a moment, then nodded and smiled and instructed the back: "Drive the boat and go to the poetry club painting boat center!"

Next, there are more than a dozen boatmen on the boat, paddling the oars, and bracing the penny, so that the big boat of ten zhang slowly goes towards the center of the center of the painted boats.

"Concubine, do you know how to write poetry, why don't I know!" Han Ming walked to the side of Concubine Yu and said with some surprise.

"You don't know much, when I lived in the mundane with my mother, there were many well-educated people who were caught in the house, became teachers, and studied for a while!" Concubine Yu walked to the bow of the boat and proudly looked at a huge painting boat surrounded by a group of painting boats, which was even bigger than the painting boat in the City Lord's Mansion, more than 30 zhang, with five floors, and at least more than 100 independent rooms!

This painting boat is the big ship where the Oiran is, and the poems and songs to be sent to this big ship, the little guy with a clear tone reads aloud, and the top ten are selected by the surrounding scholars, and then selected by the Oiran to select the winners, of course, the winners here are not necessarily the best poems, but eighty percent are the most extraordinary among the ten people, and the appearance is good.

"I'll wait and see!" Han Ming nodded and stayed beside Concubine Yu. I want to talk about "The Second Immortal Fandao" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
