Chapter 223 Serving the Princess Personally (7)
The princess was seated, and several daughters of the second wife's family also came to say hello one by one. Among them, the daughter of the second wife said: "The eldest lady came just in time. Just now we saw a rare rainbow on the lotus pond. It is a beautiful scene. I have invited the young mistress to compose poems together, and I just got a few poems at the moment, please give us a review."

Because among the few girls, only the girl from the second master's family is the legitimate daughter, so she is also the most prestigious among the girls, and her speech and conversation are indeed more generous and decent than the others.The concubine smiled and said: "I don't know much about this, and my knowledge is not very good. If your brother is at home, let him evaluate it to ensure it is fair."

The girl smiled and said: "Brother is not at home today, besides, we are just writing for fun, the eldest wife will comment first, and I will send someone to the old ancestor's side in a while, let her and the second wife take a look, and choose The best of the three."

The concubine thought it was reasonable, so she nodded in agreement. Naturally, she would not get up to see it in person, so she called Liu Qiqiao and said, "Qiqiao, you know how to read, please read it to me."

Those girls' poems were all placed on the long table, none of which were signed, so Liu Qiqiao read them in order.Liu Qiqiao read a few poems, and knew that these girls must believe that women are virtuous without talent. Although Liu Qiqiao himself could not compose any good poems, such doggerel poems were better than those of the girls in Jia's mansion. , that's still much worse.But when Liu Qiqiao read the fourth poem, his eyes moved faintly, he only held the paper in his hand, read it from beginning to end, but didn't read it out.

Sitting beside the concubine, Qin Shi had a faint smile on her face, but now she was a little nervous, looking at Liu Qiqiao with a hint of bewilderment in her eyes.After Liu Qiqiao finished reading it, she said: "In my servant's opinion, there is no need to read the next few poems, this one is the best."

After Liu Qiqiao finished speaking, she took the paper with the poem inscribed on it and walked up to the princess and said, "Take a look too, Madam."

Seeing what Liu Qiqiao said, the princess was also aroused, so she took the note in Liu Qiqiao's hand and began to read: "The lotus leaf skirt is cut in one color, and the hibiscus blooms to both sides of the face. The continuous summer rain brings coolness , the jade rainbow flies across the sky." The princess finished reading.He nodded slightly and said: "Except for the third sentence which is not neat, the other few sentences are all quatrains."

After the concubine finished reading, everyone also praised it one after another, and circulated it to each other with only paper notes.

Liu Qiqiao smiled slightly, thinking that she, Liu Qiqiao, knew the source of the first two sentences and the last sentence, but she couldn't think of the third sentence. It is estimated that the Qin family played it on the spot and could write it as a This is not bad.Liu Qiqiao thought for a while, pretending to be very casual, and said: "My servant thinks so too, but I think that the last two lines of this poem may be better if I replace them with better ones."

Everyone was a little disdainful when they heard what Liu Qiqiao said. Everyone here knew that the Qin family was a famous talented woman, and a servant girl gesticulating in front of the talented woman was simply playing tricks and overreaching.

However, the concubine has been taking care of Liu Qiqiao for the past few days, and it is true that her body is getting better every day. Hearing what Liu Qiqiao said, she simply asked: "Can Qiqiao also compose poems? I am happy today, If you can do it, take it in and let the ancestors and the second wife comment."

When Liu Qiqiao saw what the concubine said, she lowered her head consciously and said, "Your servant does not know how to compose poetry."

All the Yingying and Yanyan around here couldn't help bursting out laughing, Liu Qiqiao didn't blush, and continued: "However, this song by Young Madam, the maidservant can change a few words for her to be more appropriate. "
