The cannon fodder stepmother dressed as the villain Zai Zai

"The reason why I am willing to paint is firstly because of Mrs. Xu's trust, and secondly because of your reputation, Lord Marquis."

"Who in the government and the public, inside and outside Yandu City, doesn't know this? Lord Marquis, you are a powerful general at the border. How many times have you helped our Daning Dynasty resist foreign invasions in these years?"

"By guarding our land, our people in Daning can live and work in peace and contentment, singing and dancing in harmony."

"Master Marquis, you are the great hero of our entire Daning Dynasty. It is my honor to paint for you, and I am not here for any reward."

Sheng Lixuan knew that Taoist Wu was a Taoist from Xuandu Temple.

A well-known Taoist, he has no concern for these worldly things. Otherwise, when the princes and nobles asked him to paint, no matter how high the price was, Wu Taoist would just ignore it and smile scornfully.

After many years of friendship, Sheng Lixuan also knew the temperament and temperament of this Wu Taoist, so he no longer forced himself.

Instead, he frowned and suddenly became very interested. Seeing Wu Daoren mentioning it again and again, he was entrusted by Mrs. Xu.

Sheng Lixuan couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Wu, you said you were entrusted by Mrs. Xu. You know all the rules and you have always been very picky about painting. How did Mrs. Xu convince you to come out?"

"That's it."

Wu Daoren kept it secret and did not say anything clearly. Instead, he looked at Xu Yaqin and smiled heartily.He took out the tips bag from his sleeve and handed it to Sheng Lixuan.

He said: "Master Hou, if you really want to thank me, you might as well persuade Mrs. Xu to write more poems, so that she can add a rich and colorful touch to the poetry world of our Daning Dynasty. "

"poetry?"

"Mrs. Xu, can she also compose poetry?"

Sheng Lixuan had never known this before.

However, he knew that Taoist Wu had always loved reciting poems and composing poems. If Xu Yaqin really wrote some satisfactory poems, he might not be able to invite Taoist Wu to come out.

Without saying much, Sheng Lixuan quickly opened the kit and read the poem again:
"The body has been refined to look like a crane, and two scriptures are written under a thousand pines. When I came to ask, I said, "The clouds are in the blue sky, and the water is in the bottle."

"This poem... is really well done!"

After just reading through it roughly, Sheng Lixuan's expression lit up involuntarily.

Don't look at him as a general who kills decisively.

Sheng Lixuan was both civil and military.He belongs to the kind of all-rounder who can bring order to the world with his writing skills and can immediately decide the world with his military skills.

He also knew a lot about poetry, but he was still slightly moved when he heard Xu Yaqin's poem.

Sheng Lixuan couldn't believe it, looked at Xu Yaqin and asked:
"Mrs. Xu, did you really write this poem?"

The requirements for women in this era are to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and to support their husbands and raise children.

The so-called virtue is that a woman has no talent.

Therefore, except for rich girls from wealthy families, it is difficult for girls from ordinary families to receive education.

The majority of people in the school are men.

For a moment, Sheng Lixuan couldn't believe that such a poem, with its lofty intentions, could actually be written by a woman?
Sheng Lixuan expressed shock.

But the two elders and Sheng Yue had already seen Xu Yaqin's talent. Even the two clan elders were amazed by Xu Yaqin's poem in the entrance examination.

I remember that scene as if it was yesterday.

Not waiting for Xu Yaqin to exit.

Sheng Yue reminded him from the side:
"Brother, you don't know something. Mrs. Xu's literary attainments are indeed good. She wrote a poem before, which shocked everyone. It made two elders of the clan love it. If eldest brother doesn't believe it, just ask the two elders. ."

"Really?"

Sheng Lixuan immediately turned his head and looked at the two clan elders.The two elders had to admit this fact and replied respectfully:
"Mr. Hou, there is such a thing. Mrs. Xu's poetic talent is absolutely true. Therefore, Mr. Hou, there is no need to doubt. In my opinion, this poem was undoubtedly written by Mrs. Xu."

After hearing the two clan elders who had always been at odds with Xu Yaqin say the same thing, Sheng Lixuan finally accepted this fact.

He really didn't expect Xu Yaqin, a female prostitute, to have such literary accomplishments, which was really extraordinary.

Hearing Wu Daoren's request, Xu Yaqin pursed her lips and smiled and said:

"Mr. Wu was joking. My little girl just wrote it randomly. It can't be compared with the many poems written by the Daning Dynasty. But if Mr. Wu likes it, I can make another poem for you and treat it as my little girl." A gift for Mr. Wu."

"Oh? Okay, okay! So Mrs. Xu has some inspiration again?"

As soon as he heard that Xu Yaqin was going to write a poem again, Wu Daoren's eyes lit up for the first time, and he listened attentively to see what kind of majestic poetry masterpiece Xu Yaqin would have in the future.

Sheng Lixuan was thanking Taoist Wu for not having anything, and he felt a little uncomfortable. Xu Yaqin might as well give him a poem as a gift.

But after all, he also wanted to see what shocking poems his concubine could produce.
Xu Yaqin smiled modestly and said:

"Mr. Wu, you don't have to be so serious. My little girl just did it on a whim."

Wu Daoren, who was waiting nearby, was a little anxious. He acted like an old naughty boy and kept urging her.

"Okay, Mrs. Xu, stop teasing me and tell me now!"

After hearing these words, Xu Yaqin pondered slightly, her momentum changed instantly, and she spoke in a straight and clear tone, speaking word by word:
"Baiyujing in the sky, five cities on the twelfth floor."

"The immortal touches my top and bears longevity."

This poem is a masterpiece by Li Bai, the poet of the Tang Dynasty.There are four famous sentences that are almost worn out in fantasy novels by many cultivators in later generations.

Xu Yaqin couldn't remember the specific other lines of the poem. She just vaguely knew that the poem was very long anyway, but it was famous for these four lines. Xu Yaqin was shocked when she saw it for the first time.

Since I knew that this Taoist Wu was a cultivator of immortality, it would be most appropriate to present these four lines of poetry to him.

"This this……"

As Xu Yaqin finished speaking the four lines of poetry, everyone in Cuilanxuan was stunned for a moment.

Wu Daoren's eyes shone with golden light, and even he, who had always been calm and uninterested in anything, started to tremble slightly at this time.

These four lines of poetry simply spoke to his heart.

Wu Daoren was so excited that he hurriedly greeted:
"Quick, quick, quick! Come with the pen! Come with the ink!"

"Such a wonderful poem should be recorded! Record it!"

Wu Daoren thought that the level of the previous poem had improved, but compared with this poem, it was obviously a notch lower.

At the same time, he also gained a new understanding of the literary attainments of Mrs. Xu in front of him.

Looking at the world, even if all the poets in the entire Daning Dynasty were mixed together, they would not be as good as Mrs. Xu in front of me.

Mrs. Xu's poetry attainments have reached an unprecedented level.

It's as high as three or four stories!

Sheng Lixuan showed a surprised expression.

He looked at the somewhat unfamiliar Xu Yaqin in front of him.

No, is my wife so powerful?
