Clear Wear and Lie to Win

Chapter 129 Poetry
When Su Hetai returned home, he went to Mi Sihan's study.

Mi Sihan is also quite emotional about this nephew's achievement. He feels that he is young and promising, and now he is the servant of the household department at a young age. In time, as long as he does not go wrong, there are infinite possibilities in the future.

However, Su Hetai was a little apprehensive about this, not because he doubted his ability, but because of his age and qualifications, the love of the emperor made him feel like he had gone through the back door.

Su Hetai said a little uncomfortable: "My nephew is grateful for the emperor's grace, the emperor is so kind, my nephew feels a little uneasy."

Mi Sihan patted him on the shoulder and said: "There is nothing unsteady about this. Since the emperor is willing to give it to you, it means that you can afford it. As long as you work hard for the emperor, the emperor is naturally not such a moody person , you can rest assured."

Su Hetai: "Yes"

Mi Sihan: "I know you have concerns. Don't worry about the empress. The emperor is not the kind of person who loves his sons and daughters. He will not take care of you because of the harem. You really suffered in this earthquake. You have suffered all the crimes, there is no need to be so cowardly when you get a reward, you just take it openly, don't worry about it, let alone the emperor's favor to the empress, even if one day the emperor no longer favors the empress Well, the emperor is also a person who can distinguish between right and wrong, as long as you behave and sit upright, the emperor will not be disappointed in you, this is what the empress said to your aunt."

After thinking about it, Su Hetai understood a little bit: "My nephew understands."

Seeing that he did understand, Mi Sihan thought to himself that this is right!Their Fucha family is not someone who waits for their daughter to make a fortune, but there is no need to start to be low-key and timid because their daughter has become a queen.

The Fucha family doesn't know how to fight for power, but they don't want to wrong themselves because of it.

Mi Sihan: "You just came back yesterday, and you came in a hurry again. Hurry back and have a good talk with you, Fujin. During the days when you were away, she has been worried a lot, and talking to her will ease her heart."

Su Hetai: "Yes, my nephew will leave first."

After Su Hetai left, Mi Sihan said to himself, "Fucha's house is going to be lively!"

But it's going to be lively!

Now Su Hetai is only 26, and he is already the servant of the household department when he is less than 30 years old. The household department is the most popular department among the six departments, and he is the servant under the minister, but many people are jealous.

When Su Hetai's Fujin saw him coming back, he brought tea and water for him himself, and then the husband and wife sat down.

Su Hetai also knew that Fujin had been worried for more than a month after he left, and was moved in his heart: "Fujin has worked hard these days."

"Why are you being polite to my concubine? Since my concubine is married to my master, I am my master's man. Naturally, I have to think about my master. If you say this, I will be born with my concubine."

Su Hetai smiled and said: "I shouldn't be polite to Fujin, it's my husband's fault, I hope Fujin will forgive me."

He, Fujin, gave him an angry look, but didn't speak.

Su Hetai and Fujin naturally communicated late at night.

Su Hetai's Fujin is in the same family as him. Su Hetai also had intercourse before marriage, but it may be because he was brainwashed by his cousin Yun Rong since he was a child, so he is not particularly interested in women.

After marrying Fujin, all the houses were dismissed one after another. His Fujin belly was also neat, and he gave birth to three sons in succession. He had no reason to take concubines. The husband and wife played harmoniously. Fujin was very satisfied with such a life, so That's why he was so worried. Knowing that his trip might be dangerous, he couldn't sleep day and night.

The flood was dealt with in a timely manner. Su Hetai's personal methods were ruthless, and he didn't take anything into account when dealing with it. Of course, many officials died.

Because a group of officials have gone down, he now needs a group of new talents, so this imperial examination is the top priority.

Some time before the imperial examination, Yinzhen took Yunrong out for a private visit on a micro-service on a whim. He really wanted to hear what the status of scholars is now.

Of course, if there are some people with lofty ideals, if he meets them, he doesn't mind paying more attention, no one thinks there are too many talents.

Yinzhen took Yunrong and didn't go to those expensive restaurants in the capital. Although most people who can afford to study nowadays are from wealthy families, the top restaurants in the capital are places that most scholars would stay away from.

Yinzhen and Yunrong went to a restaurant that was generally well-reviewed, and the environment was good, and the price would not drop, and it would not humiliate the status of scholars.

Yinzhen ordered someone to book the private room in advance, and there is a reason why Yinzhen "only favors" this one among the many restaurants.

Today, this restaurant is hired by a talented person from the south of the Yangtze River to hold a poetry meeting. Simply put, it is an occasion for scholars to write poems and discuss Taoism, and compete with each other.

Many talented and learned people were invited to come. After all, this talented person from the south of the Yangtze River does have some real talent and learning, and there are also many people who want to take this opportunity to increase their reputation.

Scholars with the same name naturally want to be famous. If they can be recognized among many talented scholars, among other things, this reputation will spread, and there will be more opportunities in the future. If there are more opportunities, this fame and fortune will naturally follow. .

Yinzhen and Yunrong sat down, Liang Jiugong brewed the tea brought from the palace, and ordered a few plates of delicate dim sum to be served, and stepped aside.

Yinzhen and Yunrong chatted one after another, and the downstairs gradually became lively.

The host of today's poetry meeting is named Chen Lianming, a person from the south of the Yangtze River. He studied under famous officials since he was a child, and his family also asked for a name, but these years have declined a bit. His father was obsessed with painting and calligraphy. value.

Chen Lianming lived up to his grandfather's attention, and stood out from the south of the Yangtze River with a small three yuan, and now he is only twenty years old.

He held this poetry meeting this time because he wanted to see the level of the candidates in the same year, and he wanted to learn from it one after another.

After all, it is difficult to walk alone, especially in the officialdom. If you can find a few like-minded people, you can help each other in the officialdom in the future, and you can go smoothly.

Chen Lianming stood in the middle of the lobby in a plain brocade suit. He had a gentle face. He had been studying all the year round, and his bookish demeanor made him look very kind.

Chen Lianming smiled just right, and said: "It is Chen's honor to thank you all for coming, and I hope that you brothers and sisters can gain something, and this is what Chen wants. Since I said that today is the Poetry Club, if you brothers don’t mind, then let’s discuss the Tao with poetry.”

The following are echoes.

"Brother Chen naturally doesn't mind if he says that."

"That's right, why don't you tell me, brother Chen, how to use poetry to discuss Taoism?"

"Yes, Brother Chen, tell me quickly!"

……

Seeing this, Chen Lianming said, "In this case, let me tell you about it. Chen ordered someone to prepare a hundred questions, including four seasons, seasonal flowers, mountains and rivers, and common people's anecdotes. Later, one person will be randomly selected to start. Take one of the barrels, use this as the title, and start composing poems, the one with the most profound meaning is the winner, what do you guys think?"

"Just as Brother Chen said."

No one has an opinion, after all, what he said is fair and reasonable.

Then the first topic was quickly selected, which was "Mei".

It is a very common theme. Since ancient times, there have been many poems chanting plum blossoms, and plum blossoms are in the cold winter. Scholars have always liked to use plum blossoms as a metaphor for themselves.

However, this topic is simple and simple, but it is not easy to be brilliant.

After all, there are too many such poems, and few people can write new ones.
