When Tao Ziyun returned to the living room after seeing off the guests, Lu Chahua naturally asked about the results of their poetry competition.

Speaking of the competition of the poetry club, Tao Ziyun was happy all of a sudden: "Haha, the result of the poetry competition, I have always won the first place in the past, and this time it is a competition in our house, and they don't praise me as the first place, as the host, becoming the first place, with the suspicion of unfair judgment, so this competition, there is no result." ”

Moss Yu pursed her lips and muttered dissatisfiedly: "If you want to compete, you have to have a result, and there is no ranking, so where is the complete competition?"

Because Moss Yu was dissatisfied with the ending of being the host this time, Tao Ziyun revealed the plan for the next poetry rally: "This, everyone said okay, the next time we go to the Imperial Garden to gather, the results will come out, because the emperor intends to let the ministers go to the Imperial Garden to chant poems against each other, this time the competition has been planned for a long time, so next time we will go to the Imperial Garden to assemble, where there are royal relatives to participate, let the royal judge, we will not judge ourselves." ”

"One more thing, do you know why Mrs. Liang and Mrs. Zhu are so good to Mossy Yu?" Tao Ziyun asked Lu Chahua and Moss Yu a question in his life, but he didn't sell Guanzi, but immediately revealed the answer's self-questioning: "One of the reasons is that because my father-in-law and their father-in-law always won the top three in the poetry competition of the Chuanzhong Poetry Society. ”

"Oh, got it. Late at night, I rested. Lu Chahua got up and went back to her room.

The next day, as soon as the morning dawned, Liang Zhangju and Zhu Shiyan rushed to the Tao Mansion in a sedan chair, and each of them asked the servants to carry an empty sedan chair over, and they came to the outside of the guest room where their wives lived, and urged their respective wives to hurry up and get on the sedan chair and go back to the house.

Moss Yu came out and persuaded him: "Don't worry, two adults, you and I will go to the living room for breakfast, and then go to the palace first." Wait until the two ladies themselves want to get up. I'll take them back to your house, and by the way, I'll be a guest at your house. ”

Liang Zhangju and Zhu Shiyan looked at each other, and Liang Zhangju only asked Zhu Shiyan: "What should I do?"

Without waiting for Zhu Shiyan to answer, Mrs. Zhu lazily interjected in the room and said, "Such a desperate urging makes me have no strength to get up." Listen to Mrs. Tao, it's important that you go to the court first. When we have the spirit, we will take Mrs. Tao to be a guest, Mrs. Tao is a well-known lady in the world, and it is our honor to be a guest there. If you continue to urge like this, Mrs. Tao will not follow. ”

Tao Ziyun standing beside Moss Yu. and Tao Yu, who was holding Tao Ruizi, looked at each other and smiled, and then persuaded Liang Zhangju and Zhu Shiyan to say: "Let's go, follow me to the living room for breakfast, and we will go to the court." If you worry less about the affairs of the ladies, you can do more official affairs. ”

Liang Zhangju thought about it and nodded: "What Mrs. Zhu said is right, if we don't urge Mrs. to go back, we can exchange for the honorable Mrs. Tao to be a guest with us, it's worth it!"

did not wait for Zhu Shiyan to express his position. Tao Ziyun had already walked to his side, took his shoulders, hugged him and walked to Liang Zhangju's side, and then put Liang Zhangju's shoulders on his shoulders. Together, they went to the living room.

It didn't take long for the three of them to rush to the palace in a sedan chair.

Tao Ziyun sat in the sedan chair, imagining the scene when he was waiting for the court, while looking at the pedestrians on the street from the window of the sedan chair.

A figure flashed from Tao Ziyun's line of sight. That person is Li Bao!

Tao Ziyun lifted the curtain and chased after him!

However, Li Bao seemed to sense that someone was following him, and he ran faster than before. And jumped in from the wall of a mansion on the side of the street!

Tao Ziyun's servant followed with a sedan chair, and Tao Ziyun was still inspecting outside the gate of the mansion, only to see that the vermilion door was closed, and there was a plaque of "Prince Jin's Mansion" hanging above, obviously this is the brother of a noble family!

Then Liang Zhangju and Zhu Shiyan, who followed over, came out of the sedan chair, they looked at the plaque at the door of the mansion, Liang Zhangju persuaded Tao Ziyun and said: "Master Tao, I have said that it is important to go to the early court, but you are chasing people here, it's not too early, it's better to be nosy." ”

Tao Ziyun replied regretfully: "Let me tell you the truth, I found a familiar old man, he is not a good person! So I chased after him, if he hadn't escaped inside, I would have to catch him!"

"Forget it, there are people on people, you are Zhan Shi of Zhan Shifu, but this is the Prince's Mansion, even if you know that person is a bad person, the prince is not under your jurisdiction, you can't force your way in to arrest people!" Zhu Shiyan said even more bluntly, and came over and pushed Tao Ziyun into the sedan chair.

Under Zhu Shiyan's orders, the three sedan chairs re-entered the road and went straight to the palace.

In the Jinluan Palace, everyone is in an important position, and it is really humble and small for a person to be in it.

After the ministers reported to the emperor on the dragon chair about the official affairs under their jurisdiction, they breathed a rare sigh of relief. However, the emperor issued an edict to the ministers to contest poetry in the imperial garden today.

Now it's not the Tang Dynasty, what kind of poems are you playing? Many of the ministers muttered that they were unwilling to participate. However, the ministers of the Chuanzhong Poetry Society were glad to go, and at their instigation, all the ministers who came to the early court that day reluctantly moved to the Imperial Garden.

In the open space of the Imperial Garden, a row of tables and chairs has already been arranged, and the things placed on it, in addition to the four treasures of the study, there are also tea and various snacks.

Among the ministers, many of them were relatives of the emperor, and they sat lazily next to each other, but they were too lazy to write poems to participate in the competition, but fortunately, the emperor only asked them to be judges and evaluate the poems submitted by the ministers.

Before the ministers had yet to sit down at the table and chairs, the emperor took them to play among the flowers between the lake and the rockery, and then returned to the tables and chairs to sit down, and then asked the ministers to improvise poems, which were poems, lyrics, and essays under the broad sense of poetry. The ministers wrote down the poems on paper and handed them over to the emperor's relatives for them to judge.

The members of the Chuanzhong Poetry Society submitted a lot of poems, especially because they gathered all the poems from last night's competition and handed them in.

This time, the poem was written on paper, and the author's name was obscured, wanting the emperor's relatives to give a fair evaluation.

Many poems were passed down in the hands of the emperor's relatives and relatives, and each wrote down his comments and rankings. At the end, it was handed over to a nearby pavilion for the final evaluation.

There was a white silk pavilion hanging around it, and no one could be seen inside, and no voices could be heard from inside.

The emperor took the ministers, chatted and drank tea and ate snacks at the table on the side, and waited for nearly half a day before the results came out in the pavilion, and the first place was a poem entitled "Walking through the Village".

"Why did "Passing through the Village" win the first place?" Everyone talked about this topic.

Tao Ziyun also understands in his heart that among the many poems of the ministers, it is not necessarily the best written word, and in his works, it is not necessarily the best!

"Passing through the Village" is an old work, at the Qixi Gala in Sanyin that year, he also sang that song on the color stage to the former princess of the capital, the generals and the local onlookers. Just now, because he wanted to write a few more songs to participate in the competition, he also wrote down the old song and handed it in.

In the end, the emperor spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, don't have any differences, and follow the final assessment of our two princesses! The eldest princess has returned from afar to save her relatives, and it is the eldest princess and the little princess who make the final judgment in the pavilion!"

As soon as they heard the emperor's words, all the ministers got up one after another and bowed in the direction of the reunion between the emperor and the pavilion: "Welcome the eldest princess back to the palace to save her relatives! Long live the emperor!

The emperor spoke to the ministers and said, "Now let the two princesses come out to meet your Aiqing!"

The ministers stood up at the same time and stood in front of the emperor. The silk curtain of the pavilion was lifted, and two white-gauze masked girls appeared in front of everyone, they were the eldest princess and the little princess.

The emperor issued an edict: "The author of "Walking through the Village", come out and accept the summons of the princess!" (to be continued......)
