Chapter 74 Poems

His Royal Highness King Yong’s reward just arrived, and not long after, he received a gift from the third concubine. He said it very politely, it was for cousin Xuan’er to play with; Toy, not worth anything.

Cui was very happy in her heart, but her face was full of reserve, she praised Gu Mingxuan a few words, and when everyone left, she showed a gratified smile on her face.

The eldest girl is really smart, but after just walking around for a while, everyone likes her.

After Gu Mingxuan knew about it, she raised her brows lightly. She understood somewhat that the absolute part of the reason these people valued her was because of her father.

My father is a staunch royalist, which means that he did not rely on any princes, was impartial, and did not accept these princes' solicitation, and only obeyed the emperor's orders, but he not only held real power, but also extremely He was trusted by the emperor, and his opinion had a great influence on the decision made by the emperor.

Therefore, the third and fifth princes wanted to win over their father even more. In their minds, even if their father couldn't use it for themselves, he must never turn to others.

This time they would give themselves face in this way, but in fact they just wanted to show favor to their father by rewarding themselves, so Gu Mingxuan accepted the gift without any pressure.

Just when she was full of joy, Gu Mingxuan heard the sound of arguing—the speech was very fast, and she finished a sentence in the blink of an eye, and the words were very sharp.

Tsinghua Garden does not have such presumptuous maids, besides, with that special voice, once you hear it, you will know who is scolding.

Glancing at the two purple-blue parrots outside the window, Gu Mingxuan twitched the corners of her mouth when she saw them attacking each other arrogantly.

"Move them farther away." Gu Mingxuan was thinking about something, but the two parrots didn't seem to have any plans to stop. Gu Mingxuan had no choice but to order Xiao Kunzi and Xiao Guzi to move the pair of parrots farther away.

As soon as Gu Mingxuan's words fell, the smaller female bird called out: "Stinky girl, I like this place, I can enjoy the cool here."

The bigger one also cheered and cheered. Gu Mingxuan stared at the two silly birds with cold eyes, then smiled gently and said, "I grew up so big, I have eaten chicken soup, duck soup, and pigeon soup." Yes, except that I have never had parrot soup..."

After the two parrots were stunned for a while, they understood what Gu Mingxuan meant and shut up together.

Gu Mingxuan squinted at them, a little smug, hum, two silly birds, really thought she couldn't cure them!

"Ugly people do things more strangely." I don't know which one, just when Gu Mingxuan closed the window to keep out of sight and out of mind, this sentence popped out suddenly.

"..." It's better to make soup, and then invite Feng Qingli to drink it together.

Rubbing her head, a satisfied smile appeared on Gu Mingxuan's face again. Gu Minghe's reputation was first spread from this poetry club, and then there were flower feasts again and again. Although the good poems she wrote were not particularly There are many, but occasionally there are a few amazing songs, and she will become famous. Coupled with her beautiful appearance, gentle and dignified behavior, and elegant and thoughtful handling, she has become the most perfect lady in the capital. synonym.

Wherever Gu Minghe wanted to take off, she would place clips there, clip off her wings, and pluck her bright and beautiful feathers. At that time, what future will the chicken that has been shedding its feathers have.

In Gu Mingxuan's mind, she automatically imagined the appearance of the two parrots outside with their feathers pulled out, and she couldn't help feeling secretly happy.

The net has been laid, and it is just waiting for Gu Minghe to enter the set.

Seeing that it was time to pay her respects at night, Gu Mingxuan changed her clothes, got up and went to Rong'an Hall.

Holding Gu Mingxuan's hand, Cui exhorted: "I know you just came back, and you really don't do poetry, but it's good to join in the fun, get to know the ladies of each family, so that you can deal with them in the future."

Then he said to Gu Mingling and Gu Yuwen: "Although it's not the first time for you two to participate in such a flower banquet, I still want to tell you a few words, you are all girls from Shun'an Houfu, if you are both prosperous and the other is damaged, you must Support each other, you know?"

"Granddaughter made a note of it." Several people agreed solemnly, and Cui asked again: "Can you visit Zhi'er today?"

She is asking Gu Minghe now.

With a gentle smile on Gu Minghe's lips, he nodded and said, "I've already gone to see it, and that girl really knew she was wrong this time, and she is very sincere."

Cui Shi glanced at Gu Mingxuan, and said with pity: "The big girl is my sister. She offended the big girl so much, of course she has to suffer a little bit, otherwise how could she sincerely repent." In Gu Mingxuan's eyes, a cold light flashed again, At this time, Gu Mingzhi is mentioned, what are you doing?

Hmm...Understood... Gu Mingxuan sneered from the bottom of her heart, but with a worried look on her face, she said, "But the ancestral hall is too cold, and the girl's body is damaged, but it's a lifetime thing... Granddaughter has something to do." Ask grandma, grandma promise granddaughter, okay?"

"How can someone agree to you without asking for it? What if your request can't be fulfilled by grandma?" Cui Shi laughed, nodded Gu Mingxuan's forehead, and said, "You are the ghost."

"Over there, the granddaughter is the most filial..." Gu Mingxuan gave Cui a pleasing smile, and said coquettishly, "Grandmother, please agree to the granddaughter. Don't worry, you can definitely fulfill the granddaughter's request."

"All right, all right, tell me." Cui pretended to be dizzy from being shaken, and she said, "My old bones are about to be shaken apart by you."

"Grandmother is not old. I don't know how energetic grandma is." Gu Mingling flattered her, and Gu Yuwen also said in a soft voice, "Yes, the old lady is hale and hearty, and she will live a long life."

"Okay, okay, I've been fed a stomach full of misty soup, I can't tell the difference between east, west, and north, my old lady, so tell me, what exactly does the big girl want?"

Gu Mingxuan leaned her head on Cui Shi's shoulder affectionately, looked at Cui Shi and said, "I just heard from my grandmother that the ladies who will come tomorrow are all very prestigious, and my granddaughter thought, if they ask to visit their mother or It's to visit the fourth younger sister. Anyway, it's not easy to refuse. After all, if we refuse, others will think that we look down on her, or some people will think that mother and Zhi'er are suffering from a disease that can't be better... So, for us Hou The house is not good, the granddaughter thought, can the fourth sister be exempted from the punishment of kneeling in the ancestral hall, and let her go to Juxiang Xiaozhu to rest tonight?"

Of course, Gu Mingxuan was not willing to make Gu Mingzhi feel better, but at this time, the face of the Marquis of Shun'an was very important, and it was also necessary to coax the Cui family well for the time being, so it could only be a temporary advantage for Gu Mingzhi.

This was originally Cui's worry, but it was inappropriate for her to say it, as if she was protecting Gu Mingzhi, but Gu Mingxuan was the person involved and the sufferer. When she said this, she knew the rules and knew how to advance and retreat, and she was generous and kind, and sisterly.

After hearing Gu Mingxuan's words, Cui's face was relieved, and she sighed: "You are still a sensible girl, you are very considerate, so let's do as you say."

Of course, the Cui family informed Gu Wenqian. Although Gu Wenqian was not reconciled, but for the sake of the face of the Marquis of Shun'an, he couldn't refuse, so Gu Mingzhi was moved out of the ancestral hall that night and brought in to live in Juxiang Xiaozhu.

Gu Mingxuan, Gu Minghe and others went to see her. Although Gu Mingzhi saw that Gu Mingxuan was very resentful, but Gu Minghe made her pretend to know that she was wrong. In addition, Gu Mingzhi really knelt in the ancestral hall for a whole day. She didn't dare to provoke Gu Mingxuan anymore and make her father angry.

But Gu Mingzhi was absolutely unwilling to apologize to Gu Mingxuan, so she turned her face inside and pretended to be asleep.

Dongqing Dongyun hurriedly apologized embarrassingly, saying that Gu Mingzhi was cold and tired, and fell asleep just after taking a hot bath. Please forgive me, ladies.

Everyone knew what was going on in their hearts, and they all said that it would be okay, that they would come to visit the fourth sister tomorrow, and left.

After leaving Juxiang Xiaozhu and separating from Gu Mingling and the others, Gu Mingxuan pursed her lips and smiled lightly. Tomorrow should be a wonderful day too.

Under the night sky, the lights reflect the golden gauze, which flutters and looks very hazy and beautiful, and the gorgeous crabapple blooms next to it, which is so delicate and charming.

But to say that the most deceptive person in this hall is that certain person who is half lying on the Arhat's bed, laughing uncontrollably.

Cheng An stood in front of Feng Qingli a quarter of an hour ago, but Feng Qingli just smiled and ignored him, Cheng An was helpless and angry, he was very busy, okay?

But the anger in his heart could only be suppressed in his heart, and he stood in front of Feng Qingli without daring to vent his anger. Maybe, he was about to be stunned.

But if he is really stunned, the master will definitely reveal his devil-like nature, ruthlessly, ruthlessly, practicing himself, making himself unable to die.

So he must not be stunned.

However, what is it that makes Grandpa so happy?It feels so rippling to laugh.

Pulling the fox fur on her body, Feng Qingli waved to Cheng An, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Cheng An looked at Feng Qingli suspiciously, but since it was the master's order, he naturally had to carry it out to the letter.

Therefore, Cheng An quickly went to arrange things, Feng Qingli touched her chin, and couldn't help laughing.

Steal the poem that Gu Minghe is going to write today in advance, and then let someone set up a trap on the way of a young lady who seems to envy Gu Minghe but is actually jealous of Gu Minghe who is attending the flower banquet today, let her hear this poem, and then expose Gu Minghe This is plagiarism, which will tarnish Gu Minghe's reputation——

This plan is simple and practical, and there is nothing wrong with it, but she doesn't have anyone available, so there are always some omissions in the arrangement.

But it doesn't matter, she came up with a plan for him to carry out, and teamed up to cheat people, it's also... very exciting!

He'll be sure to do it seamlessly.

Feng Qingli touched her chin and couldn't help laughing again.

The next day, the seventh day of May.

Chuqi said it was a flower banquet, but it was actually a poetry club started by Gu Minghe and his five or six top noble daughters last year. Five or six of them were the main ones, and some other noble daughters whose family backgrounds were not as good as theirs formed a group. Yun Poetry Society, every year on the seventh day of May, holds poetry meetings in other people's homes in turn.

Of course, the usual poetry meeting is also held from time to time, but only the seventh day of May is a relatively grand one, and many people will come.

The first flower banquet held by the Poetry Club was at Wenyunhou's mansion on the seventh day of May last year. The host was Miss Huang San, the eldest granddaughter of Wenyunhou, and Gu Mingxuan was the host this year.

The Cui family also supports this flower feast. All the young ladies in the capital will marry into various houses in the future to be the head of the house. When they get married, although the friendship may fade, but the affection from getting along with each other when they were young , It can also come in handy at critical moments.

So Cui and He not only did not stop them, but also provided convenience as much as possible.

Naturally, Mrs. Sun also hoped that her daughter would be well. Now that Mrs. He is grounded, she and Aunt Cui are also working hard to make this flower feast a success, hoping that her daughter will enjoy it.

Gu Mingxuan doesn't know much about poetry, but she naturally remembers it. At this time in the previous life, Gu Minghe's poems won a lot of praise, and Gu Yuwen's poems were also praised a few times. From this, it can be seen that Gu Minghe is really quite talented of.

But no matter how talented she is, she can't remember all the poems Gu Minghe wrote in her previous life.

In the previous life, Gu Minghe was the queen. All the daughters of the boudoir, the noble ladies and the wives, as long as they want to curry favor with the Marquis of Shun'an or directly curry favor with the empress, they don't know Gu Minghe's age, where he is, what poems he wrote, and how. It's so wonderful, I remember these things so well, just so that when I have the opportunity, I can flatter you with a few words, so that the queen Gu Minghe can remember them.

At that time, although I hated her, I had to memorize Gu Minghe's wonderful past just like others, so that when I had time to socialize with others, when others said that she didn't understand anything, she would be rejected.

Unexpectedly, it came in handy at this time.

I don't know, when Miss Huang San, who has been competing with Gu Minghe, finds out that Gu Minghe is a shameless plagiarist, what will she do?
Gu Mingxuan smiled, and slowly put on light-colored but dignified clothes and went to the Caifeng Pavilion where the poetry club was held. After all, both He Shi and Gu Mingzhi were sick, and she was too gorgeously dressed to be suitable.

Light and elegant, it is more decent.

The poetry club was very lively, Gu Mingxuan and others all went, and even a few young girls who were studying at the boudoir school in Shun'an Hou's Mansion also went.

But one of the absolute protagonists of the Flower Banquet, Miss Huang San from Wen Yunhou's family, had an ugly expression when she arrived.

Spraining her ankle while going out, it definitely wouldn't make people happy, but she had to go, if she didn't go, people might think she was afraid of Gu Minghe.

Hmph, how can that hypocritical brat Gu Minghe compare to her.

This time, she carefully prepared a good poem, and asked her elder brother to correct her. If she doesn't believe it, she can't overwhelm that stinky girl Gu Minghe.

However, at the end, she still lost. Although she didn't want to admit it, she lost if she lost. She was not that hypocritical little girl like Gu Minghe. After admitting defeat readily, Miss Huang San returned home.

Before he reached his boudoir, he met Aunt Min's daughter, her fifth younger sister, on the way.

Seeing Miss Huang San's depressed look, Miss Huang Wu "giggled" and said sarcastically, "What, you lost again? Look at you, it's so hard to set up the Tingyun Poetry Club, but in the end, it was sent to someone else. Step on, let people step on you to become famous... Hmph, so what if you have the Tingyun Poetry Club? So what if you don't let a concubine like me participate? Why don't you just be a foil and make wedding clothes for her? It's really... a bitch."

The little girl, with delicate eyebrows and small mouth, looks very cute, but if she stands out, she is very vicious. Miss Huang San's complexion changed.

In the end, she could only hold the veil tightly, head held high, and walked towards her yard—she wanted to win glory for her mother, so that her mother would not be so difficult, but no matter how hard she tried, her father's In his eyes, there were still only Aunt Min and her daughter.

Also, who made Aunt Min give birth to her father's only son?

Miss Huang San couldn't help thinking of Gu Mingxuan.

The situation between her and Gu Mingxuan is actually similar. Princess Huaqing only gave birth to Gu Mingxuan, and the He family gave birth to the only heir of Marquis Shun'an. However, Marquis of Shun'an loved Gu Mingxuan very much. On the other hand, I...hehe .

Miss Huang San felt a little disheartened. She still remembered that Gu Mingxuan looked neither humble nor overbearing today. Although the scar on her forehead was still ugly, she showed it openly, neither concealing nor inferiority. Miss Huang San Even a little envious of her.

With a sigh of relief, Miss Huang San went back to the house silently, feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

At this time, Gu Mingxuan was a little dizzy. Her plan had failed?

Gu Mingxuan felt a little bit bitter in her heart. It's not that there is no more exquisite design, it's just that such a thing must be done by someone she trusts very much, but there is a shortage of such people around her, so she can only design the simplest one. Method.

But unexpectedly, it also failed.

The drunk who was supposed to be hired to stop the carriage of Marquis Wenyun's mansion was actually knocked out by the restaurant staff at the beginning of the trouble...

Gu Mingxuan smiled helplessly from the bottom of her heart, there was really... no way.

In fact, if this matter bothers Grandma Zhuang, she can find someone to help her, but Nanny Zhuang is injured, and she is not willing to let Nanny Zhuang work hard—revenge must be avenged, but revenge cannot be done with people close to her. cost.

Even if it is revenge, what's the point?

Gu Mingxuan slowly relieved herself, and finally let go of her heart, it's okay, this is the first step for Gu Minghe to become famous, and then Gu Minghe will have at least five years before she can marry, which is enough for her to plan.

Hmph, by then, his own Ninghaiwei will have been formed, and he won't be able to get rid of Gu Minghe.

Gu Mingxuan thought of today's situation again, and Gu Minghe really wrote the song in her memory——

The east wind swirls with sogo, and the fragrant mist turns into the empty moon.

For fear of falling asleep late at night, burn high candles and red makeup.

No matter what, in this life, some things have changed, such as Feng Qingli and Concubine Shu, but some things have not changed, such as Gu Minghe's poems, that's good. In this way, those poems in her memory, Gu Minghe There is always time to use it again.

Either cutting off her beard, or slandering her for plagiarism, there is always a way to ruin her reputation.

And tomorrow is her father's rare rest day, and she will let her father know the true face of Gu Minghe. Of course, first, let someone communicate with Aunt Cui, and ask Aunt Cui to help her talk tomorrow. After all, she has something to say. It's not suitable, but for Aunt Cui, it would be more suitable.

When Gu Mingzhi was in a drowsy sleep, he heard the voices of Dongqing and Dongyun.

Dongqing said: "I have a fever... Alas, Miss's legs are bruised and broken. Although she rubbed and loosened a little yesterday, she still looks very bad. Miss can't even stand up. It's really hard to look at it." Distressed."

"Yes." Dong Yun said, "Miss has suffered a lot this time. If Madam was here, I would feel so much distressed. Unfortunately, Madam is also banned now... she is also sick, so I can't come to see Madam."

A warm towel was placed on his forehead.

"In a while, you can go find the nanny who guards the gate, give them more money, let them be more flexible, and beg the third lady to find some good wound medicine for the lady, so as not to leave scars."

The quilt was tucked in, and a little warm water slowly moistened the lips.

"Miss San? Hmph, you should give up on that thought. If Miss San had the heart, she would have sent me medicine to remove the scars. Besides, with the degree of pampering and love that the old lady and Lord Hou have for Miss San, only three The lady is willing to plead for the lady, the old lady and Lord Hou will definitely not be willing to be sad like the third lady, look at her, she just said a few words in a casual way, for fear of making the old lady and Lord Hou angry because of pleading for the lady , is really cold-blooded."

"Strangle you stinky girl, you can talk nonsense about anything."

"Am I wrong? Miss San, hmph...she's so smart, why can't she do anything?"

"... After all, she is the master. Don't talk about it. In the future, I have to persuade the young lady not to be so impulsive. No matter what, the young lady is also Lord Hou's biological daughter. As long as the young lady is not impulsive in the future, the old lady will definitely forgive her."

"I just feel sorry for Miss..."

Another hot towel was replaced.

"Don't talk about anything else, it's almost dawn, remember to go beg the two nuns when it's dawn, and make sure they go beg the third young lady...go beg the old lady, and invite a doctor for the young lady."

It has changed from begging the third lady to begging the old lady. It seems that they are absolutely unreliable to beg the third lady.

Gu Mingzhi was in a daze, and wrote down these words, Gu Minghe, cold-blooded - not pleading for her.

Only be well-behaved, and her father will forgive her.

fell asleep again.

I didn't see the twinkling eyes of Holly and Dongyun.

It was already dawn, and after Gu Mingxuan got dressed, she went to pay her respects to Mrs. Cui. Not long after she sat down, Gu Wenqian also arrived.

While everyone was chatting and laughing, Nanny Qi begged to see her, and after saluting, she said: "Old Madam, Lord Hou, Mama Cai came to report back, saying that Miss Fourth caught fire during the fourth watch, so I have to call for a doctor quickly."

Cui frowned, she didn't intend to lose a granddaughter, so she said helplessly, "Go, quickly invite Doctor Qian."

Although Gu Wenqian was very angry, but now that his daughter was on fire, he was also worried and frowned.

Gu Wenqian was worried because he was worried, but if he asked him to say that he wanted to see Gu Mingzhi, he couldn't say it out loud. It was originally agreed to kneel in the ancestral hall for ten days, but she was perfunctory in the front, and then she was reduced for the sake of Shun'an Houfu's face. Such connivance made Gu Wenqian a little ashamed, and he was absolutely sorry for Gu Mingxuan, so although he was anxious, he just kept his face upright.

"Father, let's go see Fourth Sister too..." Gu Mingxuan tugged at Gu Wenqian's sleeve and pleaded in a low voice.
