Chapter 912 The Uninvited Guest of Wanmei Bieyuan

Although Wanmei Bieyuan covers a very large area, with two to three thousand plum trees, and the clouds and rosy clouds are beautiful when the flowers bloom, but if there is a single round of plum blossoms, this Wanmei Bieyuan is not the most in a place like the capital where the rich and powerful are everywhere. The best, mediocre at best.

The reason why Wanmei Bieyuan is famous is because of the annual Meiyuan Poetry Fair.

Every year during the Spring Festival, Meng Hanlin will hold a poetry meeting in Meiyuan, inviting famous Confucianists in Beijing and outstanding young students to participate. Of course, several heavyweight dignitaries will also participate every year.

After the poetry meeting, the twelve best plum blossom poems will be selected from all the young students' plum blossom poems, and delivered to the bookstore to be carefully published in a volume and widely distributed. There will also be seal comments from famous masters such as Meng Hanlin on it.

If someone's plum blossom poem is selected to be printed in that booklet, not only will his reputation spread widely, but he will also be recognized by great Confucian scholars, which will be extremely beneficial to his official career. of Qingke.Not to mention anything else, at least it is certain that he will have no worries about food and clothing in his life.

The end is fame and fortune, which is something to be extremely proud of.

Therefore, many students will spend countless efforts to make plum blossom poems in advance, hoping to be lucky enough to be invited to participate in the poetry meeting, hoping to become a blockbuster, and to be favored and famous from then on.

There are the most plum blossom poems in ancient times, and it is even more difficult to do them well. This kind of thing is not only a matter of hard work, but more importantly, talent.Therefore, Meng Hanlin didn't mind at all that it took someone a year or even several years to prepare, and he didn't think it was cheating.

This year's Plum Blossom Poetry Fair will be held on the sixth day of the first lunar month.

The third son Zhu was born high, and he was the number one scholar in the new department. He was even more handsome and handsome. How could he be missing in such an occasion?
On this day, the Wanmei Villa was full of people. A total of nearly fifty rising scholars, senior Confucianists, and elegant dignitaries were enjoying flowers, drinking, playing the piano and chatting in the vast plum grove. Fifteen or sixteen handsome maidservants in long skirts and double hangings held plates in their hands, and Tingting shuttled gracefully among them, preparing drinks and tea for everyone, which was a beautiful scenery.

When the atmosphere was good, the butler Leng Buding hurriedly looked for his eldest son who was having a good chat with Zhu Sangong, Lu Gongzi, Xu Xiaogong and whispered something in his ear.

Mr. Meng's face suddenly changed, and he frowned.

Xu Xiaogong was the most curious and fast-talking, he hurriedly asked what was the matter?

Seeing that several people were looking at him, Mr. Meng couldn't hide it for a while, so he could only reluctantly say: "For some reason, the fourth son of the Wan family has also come..."

Young Master Xu shouted: "Wan Family? Which Wan Family? Isn't this really shameless? Who can come to this Plum Garden Poetry Club whenever they want? Just type it out!"

Mr. Meng gave a wry smile, while Mr. Zhu's eyes flashed, he said, "Could it be Mrs. Jia's natal family, the Wan family? But Mrs. Jia's brother?"

Young Master Meng sighed, nodded and said, "That's right!"

When everyone heard it, they felt even more contemptuous.

This Wan's family was originally a small official's family, and if the concubine was favored, the tide would naturally rise, and this has also been mixed up in recent years.

And this Young Master Wansi, let alone a talented man, is so-so, at the level of the Three-Character Classic and the Thousand-Character Classic.

Such a person is the most despised by scholars.

Zhu Sangong and the others looked rather unsightly, but Zhu Sangong didn't say anything.

Because speaking of the relationship between Zhu's family and Wan's family is still a bit oblique, it's hard for him to say a lot.

The concubine was picked up by His Royal Highness Li's concubine, Concubine Shu, who has always been the only one to look after Concubine Shu, and has secretly helped Concubine Shu and King Li a lot over the years.Li Wang's concubine came from the Zhu family.Of course, the third son Zhu can't openly do it with the fourth son Wan.

You know, although this Mr. Wansi is an ignorant and incompetent dandy, he is good-looking, with red lips and white teeth, a romantic yushu, and a sweet mouth, which can make a flower bud bloom!
He is the most filial and pleasing in his mouth.

The old couple of the Zhu family, including the concubine Jia, loved and favored him very much before entering the palace.

Mr. Lu and Mr. Xu couldn't control that much, and said angrily: "It's a mess! Brother Meng, we must not let this kind of person tarnish the reputation of the Meiyuan Poetry Association! Let's go, let's drive him away together!"

Unexpectedly, before they went out to chase away people, Mr. Wansi's laughter had already been heard loudly and triumphantly.

"Oh, this plum garden is really a good place! Not bad, this plum blossom is more beautiful than other places! You can do whatever you want, haha, I'm passing by today, just walking casually! Oh, this is not Meng Eldest son? It's a pleasure to meet you!"

While talking, Fourth Young Master Wan had already arrived in front of First Young Master Meng and the others.

The eldest son Meng has been trained by the court since he was young, and he is the most gentle and polite person. How can such a person speak evil words?

Even though he disdained Young Master Wan Si in every possible way, he had no choice but to greet him politely.

But Mr. Wansi was acquainted with him, he squinted his eyes and looked at Mr. Lu and the others, and said with a smile: "Aren't these dear Mr. Mr. Meng introduced to me?"

Xu Xiaogong immediately gave a "bah", turned around with his hands behind his back and looked up at the plum blossoms with a sneer.

If someone else suffered this in person, they would definitely blush and be ashamed, but who is the fourth son, he smiled and didn't mind, and looked at the eldest son Meng calmly: I am still waiting for your introduction Woolen cloth!

Mr. Meng didn't expect him to be so thick-skinned, so he had to gently introduce Mr. Lu and Mr. Zhu to him.

Mr. Lu had to give Mr. Meng face, so he reluctantly bowed to Mr. Wansi.

Third Young Master Zhu glanced at him and nodded.The coldness and arrogance in those eyes flashed past and happened to be seen by others.

The corners of Wansi's mouth couldn't help twitching, he half-closed his eyes and smiled at the indifferent and arrogant Zhu Sangong, and said, "This Zhu Sangong is the number one scholar last year?"

"Exactly." Mr. Meng nodded politely.

Master Wansi clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Hehe, you really are a good-looking talent! No wonder those big girls and young wives were so happy to see them when they were parading in the street! Hehe!"

Third Young Master Zhu's expression darkened, he cupped his hands at Young Master Meng and Young Master Lu and said, "Brother Meng, Brother Lu, I'm a little tired, let's go and have a rest first!"

"Brother, please do your own thing!" Eldest Master Meng was also extremely embarrassed when he heard what Young Master Wansi said, seeing that Third Young Master Zhu avoided it was exactly what he wanted.
