But can you do this to the Empress?

"As expected, it's Yueyue." Zhao Wuxiu also said immediately.

Li Wenyou was a little anxious because his own daughter was even looking like His Majesty!

But at this time

"What a poem!"

The episode just now was just an episode and cannot affect the important event of presenting the poems.

At that moment, in front of Xun Kuang and others, a scholar stood there. After reading the poem, some old masters couldn't help but speak: "Thin spring clouds cover the bright moon, and apricot blossoms cover the ground with fragrant snow. Although the master of the imperial wine asked for the theme of Spring River, Flowers, and Moon Night, it seems to be together, but in fact, it doesn't matter if they are separated. Spring night, spring flowers, and spring moon are all fine. What you wrote about this spring night is very good. The late spring night is elegant, the artistic conception is quiet, and the sentence is good."

The old man praised so loudly that many people turned their heads to look at him.

Xia Tingyu looked at the scholar, smiled and said nothing.

Zhai Zhiqiu.

His teacher was trying to find a way to get a scholar from Shu to the capital to serve as an official.

This matter.

After Xia Tingyu returned, he specifically asked the teacher.

At that time, Fang Wenhe smiled and said that this man was considered by Liu Chong of Shu to be a talentless and frivolous person.

Liu Chong is now the top civil servant under the King of Shu in Shu. His position as the governor can be said to be higher than Shen Yue's.

Moreover, Liu Chong once served as the Minister of Rites in the imperial court, so one can imagine how talented he was in literature and strategy.

Being singled out by Liu Chong as a frivolous and talentless person basically doomed Zhai Zhiqiu's official career.

However, Fang Wenhe told Xia Tingyu that the name Zhai Zhiqiu was changed, and his original name was Zhai Ji.

Fang Wenhe discovered Zhai Zhiqiu's literary talent because he saw a poem written by him, which showed great talent and made a lot of sense. The poem had been sent to Liu Chong's mansion, but the people in Liu Chong's mansion knew that this Zhai Zhiqiu was Zhai Ji, so they did not deliver the poem to Liu Chong. It was obtained by Fang Wenhe.

Fang Wenhe liked him very much. Although he had discovered many talents for the King of Shu, it was a pity to throw Zhai Zhiqiu into the King's account, so such a thing happened.

Fang Wenhe also told Xia Tingyu that after Zhai Zhiqiu was criticized by Liu Chong, he did not hold a grudge, but changed his name as well, because he wanted to completely get rid of his superficial literary talent and completely change himself. This is why Fang Wenhe thought this boy was good.

When he came back this time, Xia Tingyu heard that Zhai Zhiqiu was now working as an official in the Honglu Temple, and was doing a pretty good job.

Cao Shen and Li Chunfang watched Zhai Zhiqiu being praised by the teachers, and savored Zhai Zhiqiu's poems in their hearts, nodding their heads in approval.

But when Cao Shen looked at Zhai Zhiqiu, he could only smile helplessly, because Zhai Zhiqiu had come to him recently and said that he wanted to take up a position at the frontier, even if it was just a small clerk in a county.

Zhai Zhiqiu immediately bowed to the teachers who had praised him, as well as Mu Xu who was nodding with the poem in his hand. "Thank you for the compliment, but actually I am cheating a little bit, because I thought of this poem a few days ago, so it is not a new thought."

Master Gu waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter when you make it. Since it's yours, it's yours. Besides, the question that Master Jijiu asked was not specific to tonight, and it didn't restrict it to tonight."

After saying that, Master Gu looked at Zhai Zhiqiu, and it was obvious from his eyes that he liked him very much. He was not hypocritical enough to be humble at this time, and he was also very honest, which was very good.

Mr. Gu asked: "What's your name?"

Zhai Zhiqiu replied: "Student Zhai Zhiqiu."

Hearing the name, all the teachers and officials looked at Zhai Zhiqiu's expression, all of them were surprised. Old Master Gu asked directly: "The flower market is dust-free, the red gate is like embroidery, and the beautiful clouds and auspicious mists cover the stars?"

Zhai Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment, then bowed again and said, "Indeed, this was written by me at the Shangyuan Poetry Festival."

Master Gu nodded: "Not bad, not bad, no wonder you have such literary talent."

At the Lantern Festival Poetry Festival, the poem "Looking Back Suddenly, That Person Was Standing in the Dim Lights" written by the Empress shocked many people.

But it does not mean that his other poems are not remembered by people, especially Zhai Zhiqiu’s Lantern Festival, which made many people remember his name.

People will remember the best one, but that doesn’t mean they won’t remember those who are below the best.

after all

Those who can leave poems at the Shangyuan Poetry Festival are not ordinary people.

Especially those who can leave poems and essays in front of the Queen Mother, any one of them would be considered a great talent if thrown out there.

The more Master Gu looked at Zhai Zhiqiu, the more he liked him. He especially liked Yuan Xi's poem. But rather than saying that he liked Zhai Zhiqiu, it would be better to say that Master Gu liked everyone now! Except Yan Shu!

Damn it, how could my granddaughter be so blind as to choose such a thing!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Old Master Gu shook his head, glanced at his granddaughter, and sighed again. But when he looked back, he saw Yan Shu and Zuo Shaoweng walking out, obviously to present poems as well.

Looking at Yan Shu, Master Gu made no effort to conceal the expression on his face. It couldn't be said to be disgust, it was just hatred!

Especially when he thought about what the kid said to him that day, Master Gu wanted to rush up and beat him up!

Yan Shu looked at Master Gu and bowed immediately.

However, Master Gu snorted and sat down directly. Whoever wants to return the gift can do so!

Seeing this scene, those who were unaware were all surprised, wondering how Yan Shu had offended Master Gu. Old Master Gu loved Yan Shu, a scholar with brilliant literary talent and good manners.

But those who knew the truth smiled, not knowing what to say, after all it was someone else's business.

Xun Kuang curled his lips and shook his head. He couldn't step out of this because the other party was Master Gu, and if he stepped out he would probably get scolded.

It's Mu Xu

Originally, Mu Xu was thinking in his heart that it was definitely the empress. Since the empress came, she must have written poems. Otherwise, what was she doing here? She couldn't just eat and watch the fun. The empress was not that kind of person.

But put.

It has been so long, why has the Queen been chatting with that fierce girl from the Zhao family and that silly girl from the Li family? She should start writing.

But the queen didn't write.

Urgent!

Mu Xu wished he could take the pen, ink, paper and inkstone and personally serve the empress so that she could start writing.

It was also because of this that Mu Xu didn't bother to comment after just glancing at Zhai Zhiqiu's poems and essays.

And now seeing that Old Man Gu is so disrespectful of his disciple, if it were in the past, Mu Xu would have exploded long ago. Old Man Gu, you have a bad temper, so let's roll up our sleeves and have a good fight!

But now.

not in the mood!

Mu Xu glanced at the Queen who was looking at them and said, "Look at what I'm doing here? Go ahead and write!"

Thinking so

Mu Xu's expression suddenly froze!

As if he had thought of something, he stood up and looked at the tray on his desk. After taking out the things inside, he looked at everyone and said, "I will collect them one by one now. Those of you who have written poems, remember to write your names on the paper and then put them in my tray. When they are collected, we old guys will read them one by one. Otherwise, it would be tiring to run around in such a big hall, so it's better for an old man like me to tire himself out."

As he said that, Mu Xu really walked up to Yan Shu and Zuo Shao Weng with a tray in his hand and said, "Put it in."

How could Yan Shu and Zuo Shaoweng dare to say no? After putting it up immediately, they looked at Mu Xu in confusion.

Not only the two of them, but everyone else looked at Mu Xu with curiosity.

because

What is this for?

Xun Kuang came forward to help his teacher, but was directly driven away by Mu Xu, leaving Xun Kuang with a confused look on his face. What?

After watching Mu Xu accept Yan Shu and Zuo Shaoweng, Su Wenqing walked directly to the side and said, "Have you written it? If you have, put it up."

After narrowing his eyes slightly, Su Wenqing smiled and began to shake his head, "Old man, you are not afraid of His Majesty's blame for playing this trick, are you?"

Several other people, such as Li Wenyu, who knew the identities of Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang, were also confused at first, but they immediately understood the intention of the Lord Jijiu.

Xia Tingyu turned around and tried to hold back his laughter, otherwise he would burst out laughing. How could this be possible? The Lord Chief Academician was really something.

But Xia Tingyu thought about it and felt that this was the right way to go. After all, Su Changan just kept chatting and did nothing else. What's more, Xia Tingyu also wanted Su Changan to write it. After all, the first prize was for him.

So when Xia Tingyu saw Mu Xu like this, she just wanted to say, "Well done! Your Excellency!"

Mu Xu didn't care, he asked questions and collected information along the way. Some people were still writing, so Mu Xu said there was no rush and to take their time.

Then just keep walking.

When Su Linhan and the others arrived, Gu Chiyu and Cui Yuer were still writing, but Su Linhan had already finished.

After taking a look, Mu Xu nodded and said, "It has the style of your majesty, not bad."

then

Finally, it was Su Changan's table.

However, Mu Xu did not speak directly to Su Changan, but looked at Li Yueyue and Zhao Huniu who were standing beside him: "Have you written it?"

Li Yueyue and Zhao Huniu were both stunned for a moment.

Then Zhao Huniu seemed a little uncertain. She blinked at Mu Xu and pointed at herself.

Chapter 718: Today’s literary gathering is not in vain, it is not in vain!

Zhao Huniu came here just to join in the fun, not to write an article?

Not to mention those who were familiar with her, even those who simply knew her, no one expected her to write a poem.

Zhao Huniu herself was well aware of this.

But just when Zhao Huniu pointed at him, Mu Xu nodded immediately, and then said earnestly: "Niuniu, when you come here, how can you not write poetry? You have to pick up the pen anyway. Whether it is good or not is not up to you, but for us old guys and the scholars present. Just write, don't just sit here."

Listening to what Mu Xu said and seeing his comforting expression, many people in the literary gathering looked at each other.

Is the Lord of the Imperial Sacrifices trying to persuade Zhao Huniu to write poetry?

It would be better for you to persuade the two businessmen next to you rather than Zhao Huniu.

This person was almost fired by the school back then.

Zhao Wuxiu had a strange expression at the moment, but when he looked at Mu Xu's expression, and then at the two people standing next to his daughter, Zhao Wuxiu suddenly realized something and felt even more helpless. He didn't know what to say. Why did you choose my daughter when you could choose anyone else?

But Zhao Wuxiu also understood that if he didn't choose his daughter, there would be no one else, because his daughter was right next to those two men.

Xia Tingyu understood everything. Now he had his back to everyone, his body trembling. He was trying not to laugh out loud. On the other side, Wu Daming looked at Xia Tingyu with a strange expression. What's going on?

Zhao Huniu's expression was even more interesting, because she was wondering whether Jijiu was scolding her, but after thinking about it, she realized that Jijiu was not that kind of person.
