Daoist Lin sister [Red House]

In front of the second gate of Yashe, another carriage stopped, but no one got out of the carriage.The groom who was driving the carriage greeted the gatekeeper with his familiarity, and then drove the carriage straight into the courtyard.

The weather in September is the time when autumn is high and crisp.However, due to the gradual end of the flowering period, many colors are missing in the world.However, it was only separated by a wall, and as the carriage entered the second gate of Yashe, the eyes suddenly opened up.

Not only are the flowers blooming brightly, they are fragrant and intoxicating, and even the sound of warblers and swallows does not let the beginning of the year.

And this garden is full of spring scenery, blocked by a high wall, although it is closed, only laughter can't be concealed.

BMW cars come here every day, so that Hubu Street, Tongren Lane, Zheliutan, and more and more cars are coming every day, and there is an endless stream.

At this moment, Daiyu was sitting by the window of the private room on the second floor of the inner house, admiring a pot of white crabapple.By her side, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun were all there, and Xiangyun, who was too drunk after drinking too much, was lying crookedly on the imperial concubine's couch.

It turned out that Daiyu saw that the weather was fine today, many famous species of begonias planted in the backyard of Yashe had bloomed, and happened to get a new pot of white crabapple, so she posted a post and invited sisters such as Sanchun and Xiangyun to come to Yashe for a gathering.

Speaking of which, since the Qixi Festival that day, sisters Sanchun and others have been walking with Daiyu more and more frequently, and even Sister Feng has to go to Lin's mansion from time to time.However, Jia She was ordered by the emperor to go to Jinling to take office after the Mid-Autumn Festival in August. He actually took over Jia Yucun's old position and served as the prefect of Jinling.

Although he felt a little wronged, compared to the past when he had a title, he had no official position, he couldn't leave the capital for half a step, and he had to idle around every day, causing trouble if he didn't keep it. It's much better.

As for official affairs, there are naturally a lot of talents to help him deal with them.Jinling is also the Jia family's hometown, Lin Ruhai used to operate there for many years, as long as Jia Amnesty is not obsessed and gets involved in the important matter of seizing the heir, there will be no serious mistakes.

When Jia She went to the post, he originally said that he would take Yingchun with him, but after all Mrs. Xing was useless and Yingchun was too old.If it is impossible to find a good family for Yingchun in Jinling's hometown, it is better to let her follow Jia Mu and Jia Lian and his wife, maybe there will be some marriage.

As for Jia Lian, the imperial edict asked him to go to the Ministry of Officials to work with Lin Ruhai, because he had high hopes for him, hoping that he would be successful in his studies and that he could be entrusted with important tasks in the future.

Jia Lian is also very competitive. He goes to the yamen early every day and follows Lin Ruhai on the saddle. What a nobleman's airs.He is very easy-going and easy to get along with, on the contrary, he gets along well with those old fritters in the official department.Seeing this, Lin Ruhai unconsciously gave him a lot of advice.Jia Lian benefited a lot, and because of this, he and Sister Feng went to Lin's mansion more frequently.

Even Jia Baoyu, who used to be carefree about everything, is now reading.But it's not from Jia's family that doesn't know how to study, and it's serious to learn from many poor talents in Yashe and Waisha.Baoyu was not a master who looked sideways at people. Although he was partial to women, he also respected talented people. Gradually, he became irresistible with Zhao Xu and that young talent Ruan Geng, and he was about to live in a foreign house.

Because of the company of Baoyu and the fact that Yashe Neisha is now famous, it is like a place where talented women in the capital gather.Even the Sanchun sisters, who never go out, can also come out to breathe with Baoyu's company.

What's more, Daiyu personally posted a post today.If it weren't for Jia's mother's inconvenient legs and old age, it is not easy to squeeze in with their children, Jia's mother would come in person.

Today's meeting was originally scheduled to be at Chenshi, but everyone has arrived, but there is still one who hasn't arrived.Since they were all sisters of their own family, there was no need to wait. The rest of the people opened the banquet first, and the first Xiangyun got drunk first and then passed out alone.

On the other side, Daiyu and Sanchun were sitting by the window chatting and admiring the flowers. When they saw a familiar carriage driving in, they knew that the person who was late was coming, and hurriedly called out: "Sister Huo, you are late today." .”

Hearing the sound, the people in the carriage jumped out of the carriage without waiting for the servants to put the embroidered pier in place. He shook his cloak and said with a smile: "It's true that I'm late, so I'll punish you with three glasses of wine!"

Huo Qiong's voice was not low, Xiang Yun lay crookedly on the imperial concubine's couch, she was not asleep, she hurriedly sat up and shouted: "Exactly. It's not just three cups, it should be six cups. I'll sit with you, come here Come on, let's do it!" As he said that, he held his right hand empty, and pretended to drink it all in one gulp, but when the "wine" was poured down, he suddenly fell headfirst on the couch, and couldn't wake up again.

Seeing her appearance, all the sisters burst out laughing.

In a blink of an eye, Huo Qiong also came upstairs, saw the famous white crabapple on the short table in front of Daiyu, and couldn't help but praise: "Sure enough, Sister Lin is worthy of being a popular person in front of the empress, if I'm not mistaken about this white crabapple If so, it must be a new variety that was invented in the south, and it was brought to the capital, right? I heard that apart from the empress, there is only Prince Xian—"

When Huo Qiong said this, he suddenly stopped talking and looked narrowly at Daiyu.

Embarrassed by her stare, Daiyu simply broke the jar and said stiffly: "It was indeed sent by Prince Xian. However, it is Princess Suxi Bai Haitang, who is also good at serving flowers and weeds..." Daiyu When it came to the end, seeing that everyone was looking at her with disbelief on their faces, they also felt that it was wrong, and their voices became smaller and smaller, so they stopped talking at all.

"Come on, you, who doesn't know that the dumb prince in your family is an infatuated kind. Don't say that Prince Huaxian's mansion also has a pot, even if only the empress can get it, as long as you like, he can ask for it for you! Come on, everyone has their own luck, I can't compare with you. I don't like flowers and plants, I just love—"

"I only love BMWs and heroes." Daiyu Bingsanchun said in unison.

Huo Qiong refused, and grabbed Xichun and said, "Your sisters and sisters are all together to bully me! They'll just let it go, you little girl who knows what a hero is and who isn't, so come here to make fun of me."

Before Daiyu went to save her, Xichun was not happy, and retorted: "Huh, who said that knowing a hero has something to do with age. Heroes don't ask where they come from, so naturally there is no distinction between big and small. The overlord of Chu dared to point at Qin Shihuang himself when he was a child." Saying 'he can be replaced', this is the real overlord of a great hero! Since there are no distinctions between heroes, why can't I know heroes when I am young!"

Xichun talked a lot like a cannonball, all about "do you know" and "heroic or not", almost confused Yingchun.

"Oh, that's all. I raise my hands in surrender! You talented women, you spend your days reciting poems and fighting with each other, so that when you speak, it's string after string. I can hear calluses in my ears." Huo Qiong raised his hands high, begging for mercy, and consciously left Xichun all the way.

Seeing her funny appearance, Xichun couldn't help laughing anymore, and finally let go of her pursed lips.

After arguing for a long time, Huo Qiong just sat down and talked to Daiyu: "You have leisure and elegance, and you are hiding here. Do you know that the sky is almost turned upside down outside?"

Daiyu's expression was indifferent, and she said slowly: "I don't do my business at all, even you, don't listen to the wind and rain, carefully back someone as a gun."

Huo Qiong laughed and said: "I'm just a young lady from the Wang family who has lost power and ruined. No one will take notice of me. Even if I want to rush forward, no one will care about me!"

Tanchun next to him heard Huo Qiong's words, and frowned secretly.

"Although you don't have any intentions, you can't bear other people's intentions. Let me just say that this elegant house of mine was intended to benefit scholars, and also to build a place for our sisters to meet. But now, after all, it is still entangled in many calculations of the mundane world." I don't know if it is always easy to trigger sadness in autumn, but Daiyu also feels sad for no reason.

"How do you say that?" Huo Qiong asked puzzled.

Yingchun interrupted and said: "It's not for the big and small elections. Both talent and appearance are the first. Therefore, in the past few days, the threshold of the inner house has almost been broken. Even that one, since the Qixi Festival, The master who refuses to come again has come to the door today."

"You mean Du Hanqing?" Huo Qiong asked.

Yingchun nodded.

"Pfft!" Huo Qiong said with a smile: "You know, after the Banquet of Flowers on Chinese Valentine's Day, Miss Du got angry and fell ill. She stayed behind closed doors and lay on the bed for several days. She didn't show up until the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. I didn't expect that she would come to your place."

The last sentence was addressed to Daiyu.

Daiyu said noncommittally: "She came to Yashe as a guest before, but she refused to leave her real name and surname. She gave her alias Clivia, but she also became famous as the leader of Neisha. It's just that she hasn't come for many days. Qin Chess pieces, calligraphy, painting, singing, singing and talking all fell down. Who would not want to be the leader. Naturally, Clivia’s famous brand was taken off.”

"It's her fault too." Tanchun, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said, "If she had challenged with her real name earlier, others would have known her reputation and talent. Even if she hadn't appeared for many days, it wouldn't be like this I suspect that she is at the end of her talents, and I will always save some face for her. But she insists on using an alias, and it is so nondescript, it's strange that others don't like her."

Huo Qiong is a quick-tempered person, often forgetting everything, remembering every time he thinks about it.Originally, she was talking to Daiyu, when she saw Tanchun interjecting, she suddenly thought that Yi Tanchun's identity was also going to participate in the general election, so she hurriedly asked: "Speaking of which, sister Tanchun, you also want to participate in the general election, but you don't know What are your plans?"

When Tanchun was asked, he suddenly lowered his head, and said in a muffled voice, "What plans can I have? Even if I really have plans, I can't decide."

"That's not the way to say it. If you really have the heart, there will be a way." It was Yingchun who said first.

In fact, she is also going to run in the general election.However, after the Qixi Festival, Yuan Chun was sent home.Yingchun met Yuanchun at home and described that the thoughts of climbing the dragon and the phoenix that she didn't have were completely wiped out.

No matter what Yuanchun said, she was also a daughter of the first wife, and she was far better than her in appearance, talent, and presence.And with the full support of the family, after so many years of suffering, not only achieved nothing, but in the end, they were pointed out at will.Although she is still beautiful and beautiful, she is "getting old", and it ends in the end that no one cares about.Although the Yuanchun man returned home, he didn't know where his heart fell, and he locked himself in his room all day long.Even their sisters can't easily see her.

Yingchun then told Sister Feng her plan.Sister Feng naturally agreed.

In the past, when Yuan Chun was in the palace, he didn't know how much money he spent in order to manage the ups and downs. In this way, there were still many eunuchs, big and small, who came to fight the autumn wind from time to time.Rongguo Mansion's internal pockets are empty, and these people can't escape.Now that Jia Lian has a bright future, Sister Feng only needs to curry favor with Daiyu's family, and worry about not being able to be an old lady like Jia's mother in the future, so naturally she doesn't want to worry about Yingchun.

And judging from the ending that Yingchun also participated in the Hundred Flowers Banquet but got nothing, although Yingchun's temperament has improved, she is not a person with long sleeves and good at dancing, and she is not suitable for the deep house compound.

On the contrary, Ying Miaoyang once mentioned to Sister Feng that Lin Ruhai had a writer named Yao Mengyuan, who was in his early twenties, but was born as a serious Jinshi.

Yao Mengyuan's ancestor was also a high-ranking official, but his family was in decline. In his father's generation, the members of the clan were even thinner, and he was the only one.It happened that there was a plague in Beijing that year, and the cook of his family got sick, and the disease spread to the whole family.In the end, both parents died, and he was left as a young child, who grew up with difficulty relying on the support of his father's friends during his lifetime.Now he lives alone in a courtyard with two entrances in Nancheng.The family is a little poor, but the people are quite motivated, which can be a good match for the Spring Festival.

At first, after discussing with Sister Feng, Jia Lian felt that this life was too hard. Not to mention the death of Ke's parents, the family was too poor.It was said that it was a courtyard with two entrances. Jia Lian went to see it, but it was not as generous as Pear Fragrance Court.Even Jia's mother and Jia Amnesty thought he was poor, and they were afraid that Yingchun would be wronged, so they disagreed.

The marriage was put on hold.

After Daiyu heard about it, she secretly asked Lin Ruhai to invite Yao Mengyuan to Yashe as a guest.Zhao Xu, Ruan Geng, Baoyu and others talked to him, while Daiyu and Yingchun listened to the wall in the cubicle.

Unexpectedly, this Yao Mengyuan is not only motivated, but also talented and has a lot of backbone.Being tempted by Baoyu and Zhao Xu's all kinds of insinuations, not only dealt with it well, but also directly captured Yingchun's heart.

In Yingchun's words: "Although Mr. Yao is poorer, he is still an official. If you don't mention Mo bullying the young man, how better am I than him? After all, I am a concubine. I just hope he doesn't despise me!"

Now that there was talk about welcoming the spring, Lin Ruhai deliberately arranged several errands for Jia Lian and Yao Mengyuan to run together.After getting along like this, Jia Lian also changed his view of Yao Mengyuan, and with him being the matchmaker, the marriage has become almost nine out of ten.

Jia's mother also took advantage of her relationship and directly crossed Yingchun's name from the election list.

As for Tanchun, things are much more complicated.

This is also the reason why Tanchun's temperament has changed drastically recently, and he is always happy and sad.

Seeing Yingchun's words, Tanchun smiled miserably and said, "Second elder sister is now at the top of her game, and no one in the family counts on you. Second brother Lian is also promising. I am different."

This is true.

After everyone heard this, they couldn't help frowning, but they couldn't think about it.

Daiyu was looking forward to Tanchun, hesitated to speak for several times, and finally asked: "Sister, don't blame me for speaking upright, the ones here are all our own sisters. I have a question to ask you, and you answered it truthfully." , this matter is not without a solution.”

But Tanchun didn't dare to look into Daiyu's eyes easily, he just fixed his eyes on the white begonia under the window, and said for a while, "Sister Lin said so, then, then I will say something that is not afraid of your jokes. I, no , Gan, Xin!"

Tanchun said every word clearly.

"I'm not reconciled. Since I'm from this background, God should simply make me like the second sister, a gentle, amiable, easy-to-handle person. I'm a natural, I'm not. Just, let's talk about Du Hanqing, she must be the number one in the capital A talented girl can have whatever she wants. Even if she loses to Sister Lin in public at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, she still has the face to come to this elegant house to compete for the first prize. After all, isn’t it because she is the granddaughter of Zaifu’s family? "Tanchun was also full of grievances. When asked about his sadness, he ended up pouring beans from the bamboo tube, and he made it clear in one breath.

Huo Qiong, who was always outspoken and used to rushing to talk to Xiangyun, blinked, but didn't know what to say.

She was born as a prostitute, and she has a good brother who loves her and protects her. He is also the first-class "Du Hanqing" in Tanchun's mouth.

For those present, Xiangyun is a descendant, but his parents died when he was young, and he was brought up by his uncle and aunt.The same is true for Daiyu, Jia Min passed away when she was four years old, and she lived under the fence of Rongguo Mansion for several years, and now she is finally looking forward to her career.Needless to say, welcome the spring.Only her, Huo Qiong, really grew up to such a big size smoothly.

She has never felt the pain of Tanchun, so she has no room to comment.

Unlike Huo Qiong who was caught off guard when he heard these words for the first time, Daiyu had been sisters with Tanchun all her life, so she understood her temperament.

In the previous life, Tanchun hated people saying that she was a concubine, even when only their mother and daughter were alone, she never called Aunt Zhao "mother".Now, there is a big fortune in front of her, and she will fight for it. Although the victory or defeat is uncertain, and the fortune and fortune are unknown, there is always a way out.

It would be a dream to expect Jia Zheng or Mrs. Wang to find a good match for Tan Chun.Even in the current situation, Jia Zheng is still a hands-off shopkeeper, ignorant of common affairs, and still working as a member of his Ministry of Industry day after day despite his grievances.

Because Mrs. Wang lost the plaque of Rongguo Mansion and lost that layer of status, she felt that she couldn't hold her head up in her natal family, and she lost her sense of normalcy.If it weren't for Tanchun's good temperament and appearance, and the way out of the general election, Mrs. Wang might have given away Tanchun as a promotion for Jia Zheng.

As for Jia's mother, now that she is powerless, it's not easy to control the family and stay together, and she can't make the decision for Tanchun.

If Tanchun is allowed to wait like this, "old and decrepit", then the only way left is to be the successor.

"If you make up your mind, go for a break, we sisters, as long as you open your mouth, I can always help you a little. However, there are only a few. Once you enter the Houmen, it is as deep as the sea, and there, it is even more difficult." An ordinary place." Daiyu confided in her heart.

Hearing this, Tanchun's eyes suddenly turned red, but he suppressed it and refused to wipe it off. He said in a low voice, "That's it, I'll thank my sister first!"

For a while, everyone had something on their minds, but no one spoke anymore.

After a long time, a servant girl called from outside the door: "Miss, today's poems in the poetry society are all finished, and only the name of the head can't be disputed for a while. The outside world wants you to come and make a decision!"

Daiyu was worried that there was no one to resolve the gloom in the room at the moment, so she hurriedly laughed and said, "Come on, look at us, we came to the Yaji, but we only drank and ate meat, and didn't spit out a single poem. , we definitely lost our share. Why don't we go and have fun and see who is competing with Clivia for the top star today."

Everyone raised their eyebrows when they heard the words, leaving Xiangyun sleeping soundly, and got up one after another to go to the Kuixing Building to discuss the list.

Speaking of which, the scale of Yashe is getting bigger and bigger now, and it has collected the houses of several families around it.In addition to the library building in the inner and outer houses, there are Xianqu Ji, Suishi Garden and Kuixing Building.

The so-called Xianqu Ji is a place where people from various families exchange antique calligraphy and paintings, flowers, birds, insects, fish, crickets and parrots.In short, all your favorite and interesting objects can be used as leisure collections for people to enjoy and observe.

The beginning of this leisurely fun collection was not organized by Daiyu.In fact, as soon as there are more staff in Yashe, there will be more arty people.You often come to the gate of Yashe, and you are allowed to come from all kinds of religions and streams, and there is also a place for traffickers and pawns.As long as you don't cause trouble, you can read the book. Even, Daiyu has set up a private school not far from the elegant house, with a teacher sitting in it.Families who cannot afford to read in all directions can send their children to study here.

There is no need for repairs.However, in my spare time, I need to help organize, dry and even repair the books in Yashe.

The collection of books in the elegant house is astonishing day by day, and the scene of books drying alone in the sun has become a must in the capital.

Even the owner of Tianyi Building, which is world-famous for its collection of books and categories, once came here to visit.

In this way, complementing each other, Yashe is not only a place for reading and gathering, but also a place for enlightening people's wisdom and benefiting education.Even the gentlemen of Guozijian, either at the invitation of Lin Ruhai, or for the sake of the prince's mansion, have given lectures at Yashe.

Such a place where talents gather, everyone praises, and is bustling and lively, why wouldn't the honorable sons and lords not come?

It seems that there are too many people like them, and the cockfighting and dog fighting have followed.On the fifteenth day of each month, there is the Leisure Collection, all the rare treasures in the capital have to show their faces in Yashe, so that the shopkeepers of antique shops have discussed with Daiyu to open their shops in Yashe.

At first, Daiyu didn't agree.Later, Lin Xiang, the chief steward under Daiyu who was in charge of shipping affairs, smoothed out the shipping to the south. Now he has gone to many places with the Xue family merchant ship, and talked about bringing back several batches of goods.Lin Xiang also personally presented many rare treasures traded in silk, tea, rouge powder, etc. to Daiyu for review.

After Daiyu saw it, Fang ordered to open the Lin family's Yibao shop in Yashe.

However, the rules of this Lin family's Yibao shop are different from those of the shops outside. It follows the path of "If you want to fight, you will win."In addition to the Lin family's own antiques, paintings and rare treasures, other people's things can also be traded here, but the shop has to take another [-]% of the transaction price.

And all the items drawn by Lin's shop are guaranteed not to be fakes.As for the quality and whether the valuation is appropriate, it is not the responsibility of the shopkeeper.

Ever since there were cultural relics, there have been counterfeit works.Some are just copied out of temporary interest and 10-minute love; some are deliberately forged in order to profit from it.It's a common thing to hit an eye.Even now, Lin Miao, the shopkeeper of the Lin family's Yibao shop, who came from Gusu with Daiyu, can't guarantee that all the items he has seen are not fake.

It's ridiculous to say that, since the opening of Leisure Fun Collection, most of Ya She's income comes from it.

It can be seen that it is true to say that the plaything is depressing.

After talking about Leisure Collection, let's talk about Sui Shi Garden.

This is the home of famous flowers and plants in the capital.The ladies in the boudoir are not like the clumsy men outside, who have to blush and have thick necks to fight for the top and bottom in everything. Jieer talks to insects and birds all day long, and they only love flowers and plants.

It's noble to appreciate one's own self, but it's better to be alone than to be happy alone.Flying in the morning and rolling in the evening, clouds and green pavilions, if I enjoy the joy of blooming all over the place, I will not live up to my youth, and I will be sorry for the flowers and grass.

Ladies and gentlemen of various families often bring newly released famous flowers and plants, or their beloved ones, to enjoy together, criticize each other, or communicate with each other.

Daiyu also loves flowers, and Ying Miaoyang loves flowers even more.And Ying Miaoyang is an expert in flower-serving, often the varieties that are extremely difficult to cultivate or the flowers and plants that are not acclimatized to the soil and water and are even dying, in her hands, she can rejuvenate them and make them bloom far better than before.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai took the initiative to buy a large piece of land behind Yashe, including Zheliu Beach, and built a Suishi Garden for Ying Miaoyang to grow flowers.

Ying Miaoyang is also a generous person, so he simply opened the Sui Shi Garden.Others can also plant flowers in. After the plant has grown, only one plant needs to be left, and the rest can be transplanted at will without any charge.

It should be known that the more expensive flowers are, the more difficult it is to cultivate them.Not only need the right time and place, but some also need to irrigate some special things.If there is a shortage of silver, no matter what, they will not be able to support themselves.

Suishi Garden not only has different soils from different places, but also has greenhouses and icehouses, which are adjusted according to the changes in the four seasons.In addition, there are stewards, responsible for distributing seeds, materials, etc., and there are special personnel to take care of them.Compared with being single-family, self-reliance saves a lot of time and effort.

And just in time for spring and summer, hundreds of flowers are blooming, and the garden has begun to take shape every year.When the twelfth lunar month comes, when the flowers in the outer room wither, it should show the uniqueness of the garden at the age of year!

And Kuixing Building, as the name suggests, is a place where talented scholars and beautiful ladies compete with each other.

There will be a small meeting every seven days, and the leader of the meeting will be selected.On the day of July [-]th, there is a general meeting, and the seven leaders will compete together, and the champion will be the leader.Today, there is a distinction between men and women, but there are only three Kuixing, a total of five.Among them, Du Hanqing won two consecutive championships alone, which became a good story for a while.

Today, it is Xiaohui.Neishebi's is just a couplet of poems, the title is "Ode to the White Begonia" written by Daiyu, and the rhyme and word restrictions are the same as those of the past.

However, neither she nor Sanchun, Xiangyun and the others participated.

Now, the servant girl came to invite her, saying that Kuixing is hard to decide today.Daiyu guessed that it must be because Du Hanqing rarely came today, adding more variables, so that it was difficult for everyone to make a decision for a while.

Usually at this time, another irrelevant outsider is invited to make a decision.However, there are not many people with this judgment ability.When he was in short supply, he also asked Zhao Xu to do it for him.

Just because Zhao Xu is one of his own, and has always been strict with his mouth, he will not go out and talk nonsense, and it is not considered as leaking news from the boudoir.

Coincidentally, with Daiyu present today, no one is more suitable than her.

Daiyu led Huo Qiong and others into Kuixing Tower.

Kuixing Building, in the lobby on the first floor, the main room is not like other places, most of them are screens, etc., but it is a large piece of transparent glass about the size of one side.

This is what Lin Xiang bought from overseas.Putting it on sale in the foreign treasure shop in the capital, such a large whole glass, there is no way to buy it without tens of thousands of taels of silver.However, when Lin Xiang traded at the beginning, he only used a bolt of Su embroidered brocade, and had to transport it back long distances, which took a lot of effort.

Today, this glass is placed in the main hall of Kuixing Building, but it is mainly used for the beauties to take pictures.

Of course, in addition to dressing up in front of the mirror, there is also a separate place on the glass called "Li Bang", which is a homonym for glass of glass, and it is also the difference between men and women.There are many names and nicknames engraved on the list, but they are the names of the leaders.The name of the leader of the conference is even higher than the leader of the meeting.

Now, instead of inscriptions and inscriptions on the glass, there are two "Xue Tao notes" pasted side by side.In front of Xue Tao's paper, surrounded by clouds and greenery, there are many beauties standing, all of them looking forward to it, looking forward.

Daiyu and the others don't need to look at it, but they also know that the writing on the two letterheads is the poem of today's contender for the title.

Seeing Daiyu coming, many people attending the meeting, judging and even watching the excitement spontaneously stepped out of the way in the middle and let Daiyu walk to the glass.

As Daiyu and the others approached, the first thing they saw was the Begonia silk flowers neatly juxtaposed under the two sheets of Xue Tao's paper.

This time the Poetry Club is singing about white begonias. When the competition is judged, everyone will paste the begonia silk flowers distributed in advance under the favorite poems according to their own wishes.The one with the most silk flowers wins.

These two people got exactly the same number of silk flowers, and both had as many as [-] pieces, which shows the fierce competition.

It should be known that in the competition in the Kuixing building, in order to demonstrate fairness, all the verses and articles written by the participants are copied by a special person, and the names and aliases are covered with colored bars, imitating the imperial examination system to prevent favoritism and fraud.

Although Daiyu secretly guessed that one of them was Du Hanqing, she couldn't see the name, nor could she recognize her.

Therefore, as a man, Zhao Xu can occasionally make judgments.And if Daiyu judges Du Hanqing's works, Du Hanqing will not feel it is unfair.

Gossip less, Shanbiao Daiyu read the two poems line by line with concentration, but the feeling of bewilderment in her heart became more and more intense.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or the heavens are playing tricks, but the two poems before Daiyu's eyes today coincide with the two poems written by her and Baochai in the previous life.

At that time, Zhu's sister-in-law had the most status in evaluating Baochai's poems.Everyone praised her poems as the top.

Li Wan then said: "If you talk about romance and novelty, this is the song; if you talk about subtlety, it's finally Heng's manuscript."

Merry chic and subtle, Daiyu thought about it, and couldn't help showing a confused look on her face.

Tanchun saw it from behind, and said first, "They are indeed excellent works. But in my opinion, the one on the left is more chic and transparent, not out of the box, and should be the winner."

Yingchun's poetry writing talent is not as good as Tanchun's, but she can comment on it, so she nodded and said, "I think so too."

Xichun was more interested in painting than writing poems, so she didn't say anything.

On the contrary, Huo Qiong, contrary to his previous temperament, pointed to the poem on the right and said: "I think this poem just sang the charm of Bai Haitang, just like what I have seen before, the combination of poetry and painting, a little higher .”

Everyone expressed their opinions, only the judge, Daiyu, did not speak, so they all turned their eyes to her, waiting for her to speak.

Daiyu looked at the two pieces of paper again and again, as if trying to figure out who wrote it from the similar handwriting, but it was futile.

After a while, Daiyu pointed to the poem on the left and said: "The two poems are really excellent works, they are evenly matched, and both of them are very suitable for me. If I must choose a leader, it will be the one on the left."

After Daiyu finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at everyone's faces one by one, eager to know who is the author of the poem on the left?

It's just that she looked at the faces of the people all over, but she didn't find any one with abnormal complexion.

It was the female assistant who personally revealed the color strip on the name, and when everyone read the name, Daiyu realized that the person was actually called "Concubine Xiaoxiang"!

It is exactly the same as her name, word for word.

Daiyu was very surprised, and hurriedly raised her voice: "I wonder who is this concubine Xiaoxiang? Can you see it?"

Everyone present, no one knew that Lin Daiyu was actually the owner of Yashe, and was even called the unique person in the world by the emperor Jinkouyuyan.And people have never seen Daiyu lose her composure like this, she speaks loudly without mentioning it in public, her attitude is humble, her desire is earnest, if she is not a woman, it would be mistaken for her to see this "Xiaoxiang concubine" just because of her poems enamored.

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and they were all looking for this Concubine Xiaoxiang.Unexpectedly, after looking around, no one claimed it.

Daiyu called the person in charge of copying and asked, "Do you know who this concubine Xiaoxiang is? Where is she now?"

The copy maid was just busy behind the screen and didn't pay attention.Daiyu asked the waiters, those who collected papers, and those who greeted guests at the door again, but found nothing.

Everyone didn't know who this Concubine Xiaoxiang was, and they all said that it was the first time they had seen this name.

Daiyu was very frustrated and was about to leave.

At this time, someone shouted: "Ah, this one is also called Concubine Xiaoxiang? Could it be that she wrote the two poems by herself?"

It turned out that Huikui had already appeared, and everyone's eyes were on the winner, Concubine Xiaoxiang.Seeing that he couldn't find it everywhere, he became more and more curious, and for a moment he forgot to check who the person on the right who almost won the championship was.

Or Huo Qiong was curious, thinking, could it be that she and Du Hanqing are bosom friends, and she actually appreciates Du Hanqing's poems so much?Surprised, he took a look at the colored strips, but the name was also written on the taboo as Concubine Xiaoxiang.

"There is such a thing? It's strange, it's really strange!"

"Exactly! I have been here for a long time, and Xiaohui has participated in many incidents, but this is the first time I have encountered such a thing."

"In such a short period of time, it is difficult for me to compose a poem like this. Who is this Xiaoxiang concubine who can write two poems in succession?"

For a time, there were different opinions.

Daiyu turned a deaf ear to it, and only looked for Du Hanqing in the crowd, but she couldn't find it.Daiyu called the gatekeeper and asked, "Do you know when Miss Du, the daughter of Zaifu Du's family, left?"

The servant girl replied: "Miss Du left before Huikui revealed the list. No, she should have left when the two poems on the list were finally selected."

"She left as soon as she was elected?" Daiyu asked.

The maid nodded yes.

Dai Yu frowned deeply, did Du Hanqing leave angrily seeing that there was no hope of winning the championship, or was this Concubine Xiaoxiang her new nickname?Seeing that these two poems were written by herself, she was destined to win the first prize anyway, so she left first?

In order to clear up the doubts in her heart, Daiyu walked out quickly, ignoring that Huo Qiong and Sanchun sisters were still in the building.

But Xichun grabs her.

Xichun was not interested in who would win the championship, and it wasn't during a verbal battle, she didn't like to be crowded with everyone, so she stood far away by the gate alone.At this moment Daiyu was rushing out alone, but she ran into her right in front of her.Seeing Daiyu's anxious face, confused eyes, and unusual gait, Xichun thought that something happened to her, and she was really worried, so she quickly grabbed her wrist and asked, "Sister Lin, what are you doing?" Where are you going in such a hurry?"

Daiyu asked Du Hanqing wholeheartedly to find out.How could she have taken a name exactly like her previous self, and also composed poems that were exactly the same as Daiyu and Baochai in her previous life?

In desperation, Daiyu didn't notice Xichun at all, let alone hear her question.Daiyu rushed forward blindly, her strides were too big, and Xichun staggered and almost fell down.

Daiyu heard a strange sound behind her, and then she felt someone grab her wrist, and looked back suddenly.

Seeing that Xichun tripped over the threshold, most of her body was taken out of the door by her, staggering and about to fall.

Daiyu hurriedly turned around, helped Xichun, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry fourth sister, I was thinking about something, I didn't hear you for a while, and I almost made you fall down. Is there any harm?" As she said, she was busy He lowered his body and inspected Xichun's calf.

Xichun hurriedly waved her hands and said, "No, no, I just tripped over it. But sister Lin, why are you suddenly thinking about something, so urgent?"

Daiyu was frightened by Xichun, asked, and turned her head around the autumn wind outside the building, calmed down a little, scratched her head and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal. But, do you think this concubine Xiaoxiang's poetry is interesting?" , is it seven or eight points similar to me?"

Xichun didn't read those two poems carefully at all, so naturally she couldn't answer them.

It happened that Tanchun, Huo Qiong and others also followed at this time. Hearing Daiyu's words, Tanchun said first: "Second sister didn't mention it, so I didn't think so. Now that I think about it, it's strange that when I saw the poem on the left, I feel familiar! Thinking about his free and easy nature, he is really similar to the second sister."

"Then if you say that, this Concubine Xiaoxiang will definitely not be Du Hanqing!" Huo Qiong said suddenly.

Daiyu asked anxiously, "Why is that?"

Huo Qiong waved his hand and said: "You are not familiar with Miss Na Du, but I often deal with her. If it is said that she is a little bit different in terms of learning and literary talent, but in terms of temperament, she is different from you."
