After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Chapter 4 Good words!

With the 100 taels of silver in his pocket, Li Chenan stayed in the backyard for another half an hour.

It's not about writing those poems again. In Li Chen'an's opinion, it was only because of the need of that handsome young man that he could sell that poem for 100 taels of silver. head.

He is drawing the utensils needed for wine making.

These things need to be made to order, and there are more jobs, using blacksmiths, carpenters, bricklayers and potters.

Some of them deserve to be made here, some utensils can be bought in the West Market, and some need to be crafted in the craftsman's shop.

So any link can't be sloppy, he even marked the specifications and the requirements he wanted, so as to get this done in one go.

He doesn't like trouble, and it's best if things can be done once.

After a careful inspection, Li Chenan was sure that there was nothing missing, so he put these papers into his pocket,
It seemed that it was almost noon, and it was time to go out for a meal, and then arrange all these things.

He walked out without locking the door, because there is nothing worth worrying about in this house yet.

Thinking about something while walking, I naturally thought of the literary meeting at Huaping Lake.

I don't know if the handsome young man won the first prize with the poem that he bought for 100 taels of silver.

He smiled dumbly, thinking that there are so many people by Huaping Lake, they probably haven't even finished the couplets at this time, and it may be late in the evening to wait for the final result.

He guessed right, there are still many people in Huapingdong.

So Zhongli Ruoshui didn't board the painting boat, she still stayed with Ning Chuchu in the Misty Rain Pavilion surrounded by curtains.

It's just that she didn't pick up the cakes in the food box at the moment, and seemed to have forgotten the deliciousness of Jingdu Yunjinji cakes. She widened her eyes and even held her breath, carefully looking at the poem on the piece of paper in front of her. .

In terms of literary attainments, Zhongli Ruoshui is indeed much better than Ning Chuchu.

After all, there is a specialization in martial arts, and Ning Chuchu is more fascinated by martial arts.

After Zhiyuan told the second daughter about the conversation with Li Chenan, she presented the paper bought with 100 taels of silver to Ning Chuchu.

Ning Chuchu and Zhongli Ruoshui were of course quite surprised.

One is that that person really didn't have the heart to come to participate in the literary meeting, which meant that he didn't have the heart to become the son-in-law of Zhongli Mansion either.

Previously, Zhongli Ruoshui thought that that person was quite self-aware, knowing that it would be difficult to stand out among the students who were like a crucian carp crossing the river, so he would rather give up than try his best.

Even if the couplet was given the highest evaluation after being shown to the three bachelors, she was only curious about the boy.

Of course it would be best if he could come, but if he didn't come...would the third young lady of the dignified Zhongli mansion not be able to choose a good son-in-law to marry?
Besides, when it comes to couplets in poetry, it is obvious that poetry is more difficult. Zhongli Ruoshui did not expect that the four princesses would have amazing talents when they met a man by chance.

But now it seems that is obviously not the case.

Looking at the poem, she seemed to see that person, and she felt sad because of the artistic conception in the poem.

It's been a long time since I felt this way.

He's really talented, and he's the kind who is so tall!
But he is not interested in recruiting a son-in-law for his literary skills...

This was a small blow to Miss Zhongli's family, who had always been proud of herself.

The second is this poem worth a hundred taels of silver... Such a good poem uses silver to measure its value, which seems a little profane to Miss Zhongli——

Words are sacred!

Good poems and articles are even more fascinating and thought-provoking!
How can this be linked to money?

This is a great disrespect for poetry!

"This prodigal...he sold it cheap!"

Third Miss Zhongli was very frustrated, and said angrily: "With this level of words, it can only be matched by selling ten thousand gold!"

"Is this word really that good?" Ning Chuchu asked in surprise.

Zhongli Ruoshui took a deep breath and nodded firmly: "Excellent!"

After thinking about it, I felt that these two words were not enough to describe this poem, so I added another sentence: "This last sentence alone can be included in the top... top fifty of "Ning Poetry Collection Yuan Baipian"!"

Ning Chuchu was really taken aback. Ningguo was founded 300 years ago, and the emperors of all dynasties advocated the rule of culture, so countless literati came out.

Naturally, there are many well-known masters here, and the poems written by these masters have been cited by students all over the world, and then Taiyuan Academy compiled a book "Ning Poetry Collection Yuan Baipian".

It contains the 300 most essential poems in the past [-] years, and any one of them will be unsurpassed!
But now Zhongli Ruoshui said that this poem can be included in the top fifty of this great book... Doesn't that person also have the talent of everyone?
The poem "Long Lovesickness, Cherishing Plum Blossoms" written by Hua Manting and Hua Boss Confucianism seems to be ranked No. 30 and No. [-] in this collection of poems. In this way, the young man's attainments in poetry, or at least in this poem Is the level close to Hua LaoDa Confucianism?

Also, the long flavor of the last sentence is really heartbreaking.

No wonder she said the word was worth ten thousand dollars!
"However, this is also my judgment. There may be some subjective opinions. If we want to judge it more fairly... we need to invite Hua Boss and Daru to convene seven people to appreciate it together."

"But no matter what the final result is, in my opinion, this poem is the leader of today's Literary Society!"

Ning Chuchu nodded slightly, but there was a look of doubt on her face, "You said... how much emotional pain did he suffer to make such unforgettable words?"

"Hey... How would I know? But he must be a person with a story, not as superficial as Chen Zhe!"

"This kind of person has already tasted the pain of the word love. If he really wins his heart, he will cherish it even more. Therefore, this is not a bad thing."

Zhongli Ruoshui turned his head to look at Zhiyuan, and asked, "What's his name?"

Zhiyuan was startled, and said in a low voice embarrassedly: "Is this the servant's fault, the servant never thought that he has such talent, and the servant did not ask."

"where does he live?"

"At the east end of Erjinggou Alley, there is a big banyan tree, which is easy to identify."

"Come on, let's go see him!"

Ning Chuchu was stunned, "Is there such a hurry? It's hard to know where he is staying? I think you should deal with the matter here first... Do you still want to choose this son-in-law?"

Zhongli Ruoshui shrugged, took another piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth, suddenly felt that the pastry from Yunjinji was tasteless, her thoughts were still on the poem, and then drifted to that person.

"I still have to choose. After all, I can't marry Cheng Zhe, it's just..."

Zhongli Ruoshui leaned over, his eyes sparkled, "Tell me what he looks like again!"

Ning Chuchu glanced at her, thinking that this little girl's mind might be seduced by that person now, seeing this poem, she has no interest in so many young people outside.

"Look... not very handsome. It doesn't have much to do with the appearance of a literati. The figure is pretty good, and the temperament is really stable. If you have some skills, it would be suitable to be a little spy in the Mirror Division."

"Don't make up his mind," Zhongli Ruoshui glanced at Ning Chuchu, "You Li Jingsi are all women, it's not right for him to run away like a gentleman. Besides, you can't look good, who said that literati have to be delicate? Is Zhou Daru from the Imperial College handsome?"

"I said, ask someone from the Lijing Department to check, or I will ask the family to check, as long as the background is innocent,"

Zhongli Ruoshui's face flushed slightly, and he took another piece of pastry, with a hint of spring on his face, "It's okay to be poor, I have money!"

"It doesn't matter if the house is simple, I will pay for a big house!"

"It doesn't matter if you were born lowly, I am a wealthy family!"

She rolled her eyes, "I guess I don't have any fame, it's nothing, we don't need it."

Ning Chuchu was stunned.

"Then you took a fancy to him?"

"There is no way to show your ambition unless you are indifferent, and there is no way to go far without tranquility... Do you remember the Prime Minister of Shang who was born in the reign of Dade?"

Ning Chuchu was startled immediately.

Dade is the reign title of the sixth emperor of Ningguo, a hundred years ago.

The prime minister of Shang, who is famous in history, was born in commoner, and he worked in Shangping.

At that time, when Princess Yuhua was traveling around the world and taking a break in Shangping, she happened to meet Shang Buqi who had risen from the field.

It is said that the setting sun was just right that day, and the young Shang Buqi recited a poem facing the setting sun with a hoe on his shoulders. Music, Spring Festival".

Princess Yuhua was amazed by the poem, so she stayed there and performed a wonderful Phoenix Courtship.

Shang Buqi has no fame, is unknown, and is very poor, but Princess Yuhua chose Shang Buqi with her eyes. A famous saying——

'There is no ambition without indifference, and no distance without tranquility! '

At this moment, Zhongli Ruoshui actually compares that person with Shang Buqi...

"Ningguo has only had one prime minister in civilian clothes so far! In addition..."

Ning Chuchu also leaned over, with a sly smile on her face, she whispered, "Look, I'm also a princess!"

Zhongli Ruoshui felt bad all of a sudden.

She glared at Ning Chuchu, "But Princess Yuhua is full of poems and books, and the two get married, it's called Qin Se He Ming, you..."

She raised her eyebrows, regardless of Princess Ning Chuchu's identity, "You can wield swords and swords, but that young man can't accompany you to roam the rivers and lakes, so I'm more suitable."

Ning Chuchu suddenly laughed.

"Just kidding, do you really think you can pick up a business weapon?"

"Hee hee, it's not necessarily true."

"But Shangbuqi is not only good at poetry, he knows a lot. And that boy..."

At this moment, Zhiyuan suddenly remembered the last words Li Chenan said to him, and she quickly whispered:
"Your Highness, the slave girl said something before leaving. He said... Please go to his small courtyard after [-] days. He asked Your Highness to drink a glass of wine he brewed. Judging from what he said, he seems to be able to brew wine. .”

"liquor?"

"Well, that's what he said, and, Your Highness, he seems to have a lot of these words in his hand."

Ning Chuchu and Zhongli Ruoshui were startled, and asked in unison: "Really?"

Zhi Yuan swallowed her saliva, she didn't expect that the nameless young man could be worth ten thousand gold just by picking up a poem!

If I had known earlier, I would have bought them all for him!

"Anyway, he was holding a stack of papers in his hand at that time, and the servant girl probably believed it to be true."

"By the way, Yuheng must know."

"Go and ask Yuheng to come back... Also, ask Kaiyang to check his details, hurry up!"
