Why, even though you're so fascinated by it, you still can't forget him?

A woman's voice sounded from another attic.

The layout of the garden here is surrounded by a stream and lake, with nine twists and turns, and two four-story pavilions facing each other in the north and south.

The pavilion to the north was occupied by a group of young ladies who hated getting married. Luo Luo looked at the group of elegant and high-spirited Confucian students below, expecting that the most outstanding among them would become her future husband.

The south pavilion is also the home of women, but the number of people is much smaller than in the north tower, but their status is much nobler.

Birds of a feather flock together.

People are divided into groups.

Nothing more than that.

On the top floor of the attic, only women from first-class families can enter.

Two graceful women, Qin Yishuang, the eldest daughter of the Qin family, and Cui Wanwan, the eldest daughter of the Cui family, stood in front of the window sill of Feiyu's attic, leaning on the railings carved from golden nanmu and looking down.

The speaker was Qin Yishuang.

Her dark eyebrows are picturesque, her eyes are full of autumn waves, and her lips are as red as cherry blossoms, but for some unknown reason, this stunning face always reveals a hint of sadness inadvertently.

On the contrary, Cui Wanwan, who had broken off her engagement with Li Nuo, looked calm as usual even when she saw her original sweetheart again.

After being teased by her best friend Qin Rushuang, she opened her mouth and said: It has been so long, and I have let go of this relationship. But you, I heard that at the birthday banquet of Mr. Qin's 90th birthday, you will be announced in public Marriage to Master Beiyue? Are you ready?

Who says besties can't backstab each other?

These words were like pouring a lot of salt on Qin Yishuang's unhealed wounds - the pain was almost heartbreaking.

Qin Yishuang showed a trace of pain on her face and sighed: Wanwan asked why are we women so miserable? Why do we have to make sacrifices for the interests of the family? Normally, those elders and brothers will love us and love us, but Once family interests are touched, they will show a different face, as if we are unfilial if we don't follow their requirements!

Being in the midst of blessings, one does not know the blessings.

A famous family can actually be regarded as a besieged city. The women outside want to crawl in through a dog hole, but the women inside want to be free.

After the incident of repenting of her marriage, Cui Wanwan has become much more mature and open-minded.

The corners of her mouth raised, revealing a mocking smile. I don't know if I'm laughing at my good sister Qin Yishuang, or at myself.

She said: We are nobles by birth, and all our food and clothing are provided by our family. Without the blessing of our family, maybe we are not as good as the women opposite us. We may even have to marry someone else after we turn sixteen. What! The taste of mountains and seas, silks and satins, Confucianism and Taoism poetry...these things that we only think are ordinary in daily life, I am afraid that we will never be able to touch them in our lifetime, right?

A trace of pain gathered between Qin Yishuang's eyebrows: You, when did you become so open-minded? But I still can't forget him in my heart. If I just married into Beiyue's family, I would always feel a little dissatisfied with Beiyue Feihuai. fair.

Marry one man, but miss another man in your heart.

This is indeed a bit bitch...

But if this man is also thinking about another woman, then this is quite fair.

Perfect match!

Right, Beiyue Feihuai?

Cui Wanwan teased: You have to be careful about this. Beiyue is the first aristocratic family, and Beiyue Feihuai is the direct heir. If you still miss that person after you get married to him, I'm afraid your life will be difficult. ”

Qin Yishuang said sadly: Oh, it's all that man's fault. He is too heartless.

In fact, the love story between Qin Yishuang and Monk Huijue only started with love and ended with courtesy. And the only outsiders who knew about this were her biological sister Qin Xiaolou and her best friend Cui Wanwan.

However, Qin Yishuang didn't know that her first love for Huijue broke the heart of Huijue who didn't know what it was.

Fortunately, Huijue had great perseverance and resisted. After fifteen years of ascetic travel and experience, I finally reshaped my Buddhist heart and returned to the Buddhist path.

Cui Wanwan asked with a smile: But speaking of which, have you never gone to see him again? Although he travels around the world, he still returns to Xiangguo Temple every year. You can't find an excuse to go to Xiangguo Temple to offer incense and meet him. Isn't it difficult? Back then you were still a raw green fruit, but now you are a ripe peach. I believe that with your appearance and talent, you will definitely make him abandon Buddhism and return to secular life.

Qin Yishuang shook her head and smiled bitterly: Do you really think I haven't looked for him? But he didn't even give me a chance to see me. Maybe he was still blaming me for disturbing his practice. By the way, my little sister half a month ago He said that he had seen him in the imperial mausoleum, and it seems that Zian asked him for help.

Why can everything be related to Li Zian?

Cui Wanwan frowned slightly.

In fact, she had tried her best not to interact with Li Nuo. But for some reason, stories about his deeds always reach my ears.

Qin Yishuang forced her to come to this literary gathering today, saying that staying in the boudoir all day long would make her sick, so she just took this opportunity to go out and relax, and maybe she could meet someone she was interested in.

Using herself to judge others, Qin Yishuang always felt that her best friend was duplicitous.

How can a true love be easily forgotten?

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been tortured by love for fifteen years.

She said: Yes, look, Li Nuo and a scholar from Xichu are facing each other. They are talking about poetry and poetry for a while. Who do you think can win?

Cui Wanwan's eyes were clear and her words were firm: Of course Li Zian wins.

Qin Yishuang raised her eyes slightly: You trust him as always. However, he has abandoned literature and joined the martial arts for more than a year, and his literary talent cannot be stored. I'm afraid that his literary talent and poetry have also dissipated, right? Your Li Lang should be That’s it.”

Cui Wanwan pursed her red lips: We'll see!

Lake Pavilion.

Li Nuo, who was being discussed by the two women, looked directly at the number one scholar from Xi Chu.

And everyone around him quickly understood what Li Nuo meant.

They in Xichu want to challenge Dayin's former top pick. Neither the top pick nor the second pick are qualified. Only their top pick recognized by the Confucian Temple is qualified.

Brother Jiang! You have to vent your anger for our great Chu country!

When Brother Jiang was born, there was a star blessing from Wenquxing. Brother Jiang's talent is unparalleled, so I let all the scholars in Dayin take a good look at it. Our Confucianism in Daxi Chu is definitely not worse than them!

The scholars of Western Chu were filled with indignation. As long as their No. 1 pick beats Dayin's No. 1 pick, there will be something to talk about.

After being roasted over the fire, the number one scholar of Western Chu finally spoke: He is worthy of being the number one scholar of Dayin. Even if he abandons literature and joins martial arts, he can still speak eloquently.

Li Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly.

With his grandmaster-level perception, he didn't hear anything strange about this voice.

This is indeed a male voice!

He continued to test: Fourth Prince, I heard that you and Princess Qiuyue are twins of the same mother.

Jiang Jingze said expressionlessly: She is my royal sister.

Li Nuo nodded and said with a smile: Xi Chu is indeed an outstanding person. By the way, I heard from Brother Hua An that you just entered the city today? You haven't seen her at the palace yet, right?

Which pot is not opened and lifted?

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

In Xichu, Jiang Qiuyue is the reincarnation of the goddess and is loved and respected by everyone.

But in the Dayin Dynasty, she was just a woman who was thrown into the cold palace by the emperor.

His treasures are mine.

The Xichu scholars clenched their fists and glared angrily. As long as their fourth prince Jiang Jingze gives an order, they will definitely step forward bravely and fight to the death with Li Nuo!

Jiang Jingze laughed at this time: This is not a worry for you. When your Emperor Dayin comes back from his enthronement, I will raise this matter to your emperor. By the way, I have also prepared a treasure. To the emperor in exchange for my royal sister.

It seems like this treasure of yours is very heavy.

Even if it is a deposed concubine, it is still the emperor's private property, and it cannot be changed just by changing it. The emperor doesn’t want to lose face?

What's more, the emperor is in control of the world. What kind of treasure can make him agree to this regardless of etiquette?

Jiang Jingze said with a thought in his chest, We'll know when the time comes.

A playful smile appeared on Li Nuo's lips: Your Majesty will not return to Chang'an for a few days. I have a gold medal granted by the emperor and can enter and leave the palace at will. Why don't I take you to meet your imperial sister?

With that said, Li Nuo reached out and grabbed Jiang Jingze's wrist.

Is this your Dayin's way of hospitality?

Jiang Jingze didn't resist, letting Li Nuo grab his wrist casually, but there was a hint of anger on his face.

Li Nuo immediately let go of his hand and said with a smile: Sorry, sorry, I am a rough man and I acted a little too hastily. Fourth Prince, please don't mind. Oh, why are there some grass clippings on my clothes? Let me help you. Shoot it off.”

The grip is not enough, this time the game is even bigger! He deliberately reached out and slapped Jiang Jingze's chest. The purpose is simple, just measure it with your hands to confirm whether it is true or false.

Jiang Jingze did not evade, he just sneered and said: The prince must thank Dayin Number One Scholar for his help!

Hua An couldn't stand it anymore, and said with an unhappy expression: Zian, in any case, Xi Chu and our Dayin are not hostile now, you are indeed going a little too far!

Forgive me. After practicing martial arts, I somehow became more outspoken. I can't hide what I say or what I do.

Li Nuo said with a smile, looking like a dead pig who was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.

Regardless of whether the other party is a man or a woman, Li Nuo's behavior is indeed degrading to gentlemen. However, who told him to bear the name of a vulgar martial artist?

Huh, I hope you take care of yourself.

Now that everything has been said, Hua An is dissatisfied, but there is nothing he can do about it.

Li Nuo patted his belly again and said, Brother Hua, it's getting late. When will the banquet start? I came with an empty stomach.

In fact, he was very surprised at this moment.

Are all previous speculations to be overturned?

Disguise, that's just disguise, it cannot completely change a person's physical structure.

He just took the opportunity to touch it, and there was nothing wrong with his hands. His chest... ahem, it was indeed the same as a man's.

If this is really going to be a lie, then the only option is to... cut it off, and do it for real, but the price is too high.

He still had a deep memory of Jiang Qiuyue's figure. She is also a princess, but compared with the flat-chested princess Qingyang, she is simply two extremes!

Hua An looked up at the afterglow of the setting sun and said, It's almost done. Go sit over there.

Looking in the direction Hua An pointed, Li Nuo saw the familiar looking juniors.

He nodded, walked over, and sat down against the winding edge of the lake.

The junior brothers from Lushan immediately gathered around and said in high spirits: Brother Zian, I have to rely on you today!

Hehe, Brother Li, have you noticed that there are ladies from all over the north and south buildings watching us?

So we all have to behave well this time!

A graceful lady, a gentleman is fond of quarrels.

Li Nuo already had the most beautiful girl in the world, so naturally he would never know when he was hungry when he was full.

He scolded him angrily: Autumn will be here in a few months. If you don't stay at the academy, how can you come to attend this kind of cultural banquet? As long as you get the honors, are you afraid that there won't be a young lady to embrace you?

Don't be angry, Zian. This is actually a challenge issued by the Imperial College. As Lushan students, how can we give in? No, we are all here!

The students who were being taught a lesson looked sarcastic.

Of course Li Nuo was not really angry.

He nodded and said: But since you are here, you must show your true skills. No matter whether the opponent is a scholar from the Imperial Academy, a demon clan, or Xi Chu, they will all be defeated without giving me face!

Student A, who did not deserve a name, said coyly: Using force? Isn't that not good?

Student B: Pig head? Zian's intention is to use his mouth to knock them down.

But I haven't sharpened the [verbal sword] yet, what should I do?

You can't carve rotten wood! Don't you know how to spit? Don't you want to enter the censor's desk? I heard that the censors in the court will spit on a high official if they catch him!

That makes sense!

Pfft——

Cui Liyan finally couldn't pretend anymore, threw away the book, and said cheerfully: Zian, no one from Lushan Academy has achieved success since you. Even Lu Zhishan in Jiangnan can easily beat them. You may not be able to do it yet. You know, we have held several small literary gatherings before, but they were all ridiculed by the guys from the Imperial College. The teachers and commanders all said that in recent years, the literary spirit of Lushan has been sucked away by you alone.

The stubborn student said righteously: Brother Cui is too humble. The teachers and teachers have all said that there is only one stone in Lushan Mountain, and Li Zian has nine buckets. Brother Cui knows his shame and is brave, and he has one bucket, and the rest share Share a fight.

The corners of Li Nuo's mouth twitched slightly.

Of course this was a joke, but it always sounded a little weird to my ears.

The other students also lowered their heads in shame.

Li Nuo said: You Wenxin are not concise enough, so it is normal for you to lose. Before autumn, there will be another opportunity to fish in Wenxin Lake. Then I will help you fry some Wenxin fish.

Hehe, then let's thank Senior Brother Zian!

Everyone was happy.

At this time.

A fire phoenix burning with flames flew over and settled on the sycamore tree by the lake, illuminating the entire forest garden and lake like daylight.

The literary meeting has begun.

This magical power is a Confucian and Taoist war poem called Fengqi Wutong. It was originally used for lighting during dark battles, but was later transplanted to open-air dinners. This can be regarded as a pastime of singing and dancing.

Li Nuo just shook his head after seeing it.

The merchant girl does not know the hatred of the country's subjugation, but she still sings the flowers in the backyard from across the river.

Isn’t this also true for Confucian scholars?

Is the purpose of holding a literary banquet really to learn from each other's literary skills and improve ourselves?

You don’t want to show off and show off to others!
