The two days passed in a blink of an eye. On this day, people came and went in the prime minister's mansion. In order to facilitate the entry and exit of literati, Pan Xu deliberately withdrew the soldiers guarding the mansion.The garden is full of sweet-scented osmanthus, and the sound of silk and bamboo echoes leisurely, giving it an elegant and pleasant atmosphere.

"The prime minister really spent a lot of effort on this matter." Liu Muchen admired the plain autumn chrysanthemums temporarily moved from the garden and the calligraphy and paintings hanging all over the corridor, and remembered how extravagant the prime minister's mansion was mentioned in the original book Luxury, can not help feeling a burst of emotion.

"Father ordered to treat scribes leniently, so he naturally has to worry about it." Xiao Yan danced his folding fan lightly, his clothes fluttered with the wind, and he lightly raised the corners of his lips, showing a sense of coquettish and unrestrained.

"Your Excellency's sentence is very wonderful, very wonderful!" When the two of them arrived, there were already many literati and poets chatting in the hall, and when they saw Xiao Yan, they all got up and saluted.

Someone said: "I heard that the prince's masterpiece is also here, I can't wait to see it!"

As soon as the voice fell, a group of people around echoed it.

Liu Muchen stood beside him and rubbed his nose, eyes rolling back and forth, wondering what he was thinking, Xiao Yan glanced at him secretly, then suddenly stretched out his hand to bring him in front of him, and smiled at the group of people surrounding him: "Everyone It’s too good to be true, if it wasn’t for the master’s teaching, how could this king’s work be in the hall of elegance?”

Liu Muchen blinked and stared at those flatterers. After a while, he came to his senses and couldn't help but give Xiao Yan a look of resentment.

Think these people are too annoying, want to throw the stall on yourself?

Liu Muchen looked at Xiao Yan who was smiling cheerfully at him, and couldn't help sighing. Most of those sycophants were civil servants who had worked in court for many years. When it comes to Liu Muchen, he was famous for his talent when he was in Xunyulou, and this time Qiu Wei ranked second, and everyone praised him as handy and happy.

Liu Muchen smiled but didn't smile, he opened his mouth back and forth, and put out his modest words one after another, but he was a little impatient in his heart, when his eyes were staggered, he accidentally caught a glimpse of some people standing aside, some of them were disdainful Some of the literati, like him, have just obtained Juren, and they are a little bit stuck.

Among these people was a handsome young man in white clothes. He was standing by the table with a cup of hot tea in his hand.

"Hahaha, it's so lively!" Laughter rang out amidst the commotion, everyone turned their heads and saw Pan Xu walking quickly, and there were two people walking with him on his right side, they were Xiao Huan and Xiao Yun.

Liu Muchen's heart skipped a beat, this Pan Xu is actually side by side with the prince?

The scene was a bit weird, but everyone present didn't seem to notice it. They swung their bodies to let the road in front of the door open, and welcomed the three of them in respectfully.

"I didn't expect the seventh brother to come too." As soon as Xiao Huanfu entered the door, he walked straight towards Xiao Yan.

Pan Xu followed behind, and said with a smile: "My lord is here, I am sorry to welcome you!"

As soon as Xiao Yan put away the folding fan, he said naturally: "My lord, the prime minister, is too serious. This king came here without invitation. Don't take offense, my lord."

……

Liu Muchen turned his head in a lack of interest, and his eyes fell on the young man in white, thinking: This man really has a unique temperament, not much worse than his own master, but I don't know why...

The young man in white frowned slightly, as if he felt that someone was looking at him, Liu Muchen's heart moved, and suddenly he felt guilty, but saw that the young man was not looking at him.

Liu Muchen: "?"

He turned his head and saw Xiao Yun giggling, staring at the young man intently.

Well...it turns out that he was staring at the old hooligan...

Liu Muchen regained his righteousness in an instant. On the other end, Xiao Huan, Pan Xu and those civil officials and poets came over one by one, and it took a long time before they finally got to the point: "The reason why the old man is late is that I went to arrange the venue for this poetry tasting meeting in person. , please come with me."

Liu Muchen and Xiao Yan glanced at each other, and everyone followed Pan Xu all the way to the back/court, gradually, the sound of clear water rang in their ears, the fragrance of flowers overflowed behind the moon gate, the long corridors connected to the courtyard intertwined each other, and there were bamboo curtains Hanging from both sides, it moves with the wind, showing soft and fresh beauty.

A look of amazement flashed in everyone's eyes, Pan Xu led them to the end of the long corridor, and said with a smile: "Every roll of bamboo curtains has poems from various places written on it, you can take a slow stroll here, old man Someone has placed a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the pavilion in front of it, and after you finish reading it, you can write down the title of your favorite work."

In Liu Muchen's impression, criticizing poems has always been no different from those modern teachers huddling together to grade papers, but he never thought that there is such a way. He looked at the appearance of those literati who were originally very dignified and praised Pan Xu , couldn't help saying: "I have to say, this Pan Xu still has some skills."

Xiao Yan said with a smile: "False greetings, observing words and demeanor, and being in love with others are all necessary for an official."

Liu Muchen blinked his eyes, and felt that Xiao Yan's words had some deep meaning. He remembered what happened in the hall earlier, and suddenly he had a clever idea, and asked tentatively: "Did the prince do it on purpose?"

Xiao Yan raised his hand to rub his head, and said with a smile: "I know you are impatient, let you practice first."

It turned out that I didn't want to throw a mess at him, but I wanted him to get used to official routines earlier...

Liu Muchen's heart softened, and just as he was about to send a warm smile to Xiao Yan, the latter suddenly said, "It just so happens that this king wants to take some time off."

Liu Muchen: "..."

The corridor was wide, and everyone dispersed in twos and threes after entering. Liu Muchen and Xiao Yan strolled around. Although the ink stains on the bamboo curtain were completely dry, they still exuded an attractive ink fragrance. Liu Muchen smiled lightly and said: " It should be the ink specially made by Moxiangfang, and I smelled the same smell when I accompanied Big Brother Han to buy an inkstone for Master last time..."

He paused and sighed, "The place is really good."

Xiao Yan glanced at him, then suddenly stretched out his arms and pulled him into his arms. He pressed Liu Muchen's ear and asked, "Do you like it? Let's do the same when we go back."

Liu Muchen laughed and said, "If it's like this, is the prince still barbecuing in the garden?"

"There are so many gardens in the mansion, it's just a change of place." Xiao Yan said disapprovingly: "Besides, it doesn't matter if you can't eat meat..."

He raised the corner of his mouth, and suddenly rubbed Liu Muchen's earlobe with his lips. Feeling the person in his arms stiffen slightly, he smiled more joyfully, and said in a deep voice, "I'll just eat you..."

Liu Muchen's face became hot, but he didn't push Xiao Yan away, he only shouted softly: "Don't talk nonsense here."

Xiao Yan smiled aggressively: "It's not here, so let's go back and talk about it?"

Liu Muchen sighed secretly, thinking why did he follow such a shameless guy, he tilted his head slightly, just looking for something to divert his attention, but his eyes caught that familiar white figure again.

Liu Muchen watched the handsome young man in white walk up to a bamboo curtain, his eyes were deep and his brows were furrowed, as if he had seen something extremely infuriating.

"Who is he?" Liu Muchen asked softly.

Xiao Yan glanced at the young man in white, and said casually: "His name is Lian Heng, and he is the Jie Yuan of Qiu Wei. I heard that his articles are even praised by the head of the Imperial Academy."

Liu Muchen was secretly surprised. Lian Heng's name was in full swing in the capital city these two days, and he was passed on like a god among the public. Liu Muchen also said that he should be an old scholar full of knowledge. He didn't want to...

Liu Muchen asked curiously, "What is the origin of this person?"

Xiao Yan said meaninglessly: "I don't know, are you interested in him?"

Liu Muchen nodded and said with a smile: "Extraordinary bearing and knowledge, such a wonderful person, he is naturally interested, eh—"

Before Liu Muchen finished speaking, Xiao Yan suddenly pinched his waist lightly.

"My lord!" Liu Muchen felt a little hairy.

Xiao Yan snorted: "In my arms, how dare you say you are interested in others?"

That sound sounded like a child humming extremely capriciously. Liu Muchen was amused and angry when he heard it, and most of his resentment disappeared immediately. He said helplessly, "Why do you get jealous so easily?"

"I don't know who filled my stomach with jealousy on my birthday..." Xiao Yan paused, and joked, "And finally sent myself up?"

Liu Muchen was momentarily at a loss for words, his face flushed and turned pale, he found that not only could he not get angry with Xiao Yan every time, but he was often rendered speechless by him.

The two lingered together for a while, and the young man in white had disappeared at some point. Liu Muchen took a look in front of the bamboo curtain, and murmured: "If the two love each other for a long time, how can they be together day and night?" ..."

Liu Muchen's gaze slowly moved down, and he found that the poem was not signed by Qin Shaoyou, which is not surprising, Liu Ya quoted many poems from the predecessors according to the plot when writing the book, but the signature was some fictional characters...

Could it be that the little brother in white recognized Qin Guan and was angry when he saw his works being crowned?

Liu Muchen shook his head amusedly, only to feel that his ability to unconstrained style was getting stronger and stronger.

Seeing him smiling and staring at the bamboo curtain, Xiao Yan knew that he was still thinking about the young man in white, and felt unhappy, so he immediately dragged him away with hugs.

"That's a good sentence." Xiao Yan took Liu Muchen to stop in front of a bamboo curtain, on which dragons and phoenixes were flying, and two lines of small characters were written: Once the sea was too difficult to be water, except Wushan was not a cloud.

Liu Muchen laughed and said, "I can hear cocoons in my ears."

Xiao Yan put his arms around him and murmured: "You are the cloud of the sea and Wushan."

Liu Muchen was slightly taken aback, the warm wind lifted the sleeves of the two of them, he held Xiao Yan's hand on his waist, and raised a slight arc on his lips: "The beautiful scenery is rare, the prince must guard it carefully." on."

The bamboo curtains were lightly raised, and the hustle and bustle was far away. Although there were many poems sent up, it took only an hour to appreciate them carefully. However, Liu Muchen and Xiao Yan stopped and stopped, insisting that this prime minister's mansion was a paradise, waiting for them to share their poems. After commenting with others, it was already sunset.

The two walked into the pavilion together, and many people gathered inside, including Pan Xu, Xiao Huan and Xiao Yun.

"The seventh brother is finally here." Xiao Huan slowly got up from behind the desk covered with paper and pens: "Right now, there are only two pens from Mr. Xiyuan and Mr. Lian, so please tell us to wait."

"You man, you bumped into our lady, why didn't you even say hello!"

At the right time, there was an outrageous shout in front of the moon gate next door, and everyone turned their heads, only to see Lian Heng standing upright in front of the gate, and opposite him stood a woman dressed in orange clothes, who was ostentatiously dressed. It is Pan Xu's favorite jewel, Pan Qu...
