Chapter 133
133 Spirit beast (1)
Xu Qi ‘an braced himself and stepped out from the eldest princess’s side. He cupped his fists and said, “”It’s this humble servant’s new work,”
All of a sudden, everyone turned to look at Xu Qi ‘an. The second princess’s dark eyes examined Xu Qi’ an.
The Crown Prince frowned.
“You’re just a Gong, what poem are you composing?” the third Prince said unhappily.
He said it rather tactfully, meaning,”you’re a warrior, what do you know about poetry?”
“Du du …” The eldest princess’s Jade-like fingers rapped on the table, attracting the attention of all the princes. Her tone was calm as she said, “”His name is Xu Qi ‘an, and his younger cousin is a student of Yun Lu Academy.”
What did this mean? For a moment, no one could understand the eldest princess’s meaning. She seemed to like seeing her siblings ‘heads full of question marks but pretending to be indifferent.
A smile appeared on her cold face.”The poem that Lin ‘an recited earlier was also Xu Qi’ an’s work.”
All the princes present had incredulous expressions on their faces. They suddenly turned their eyes and stared at Xu Qi ‘an.
The original author of the famous poem,”the sheep Pavilion gifted scholar Zi Yang in Qingzhou” was actually in front of them?
Yes, it was said that the poem was written by a cousin of a certain student in Yun Lu Academy. Earlier on, huaiqing had said that this cousin of Tong Gong was a student of Yun Lu Academy … The third Prince was the clearest about these rumors. He immediately realized that huaiqing’s words were true.
This loyal dog who admired huaiqing was the poet who wrote “the moon’s dusk with a faint fragrance …” The second Princess opened her charming peach-blossom eyes and looked at Xu Qi ‘an without blinking. Her impression of the gong had changed a little.
Xu Qi ‘an was shocked at first. He subconsciously thought that his behavior of sleeping with the fu Xiang courtesan was closely monitored by the eldest Princess.
However, he quickly figured it out. Back then, the night watchman had followed him because of Princess huaiqing’s instructions. In that case, the eldest Princess naturally knew about his information.
“But I heard that the one from the teaching workshop is Yang Ling, a student from Changle County,” the Crown Prince questioned.
The eldest Princess did not answer.
“It’s my alias,” Xu Qi ‘an had to explain himself.
The Crown Prince stopped talking.
The third Prince continued to ask, ” I heard the poem just now. It’s not bad. When you’re drunk, you don’t know that the sky is in the water. It’s quite artistic, and I can’t help but want to know what happened next.”
He was born in the royal family and had received the best education. Even the second Princess, who only liked to dress up and didn’t like to study, was forced to read the books of the sages for several years.
His cultural heritage was solid, and his appreciation level was not bad. After being interrupted by the third Prince, his attention returned to the poem. Because he knew Xu Qi ‘an’s identity, he was even more looking forward to it.
I’m drunk, ” Xu Qi ‘an said slowly. I don’t know that the sky is in the water. I’m dreaming.
When drunk, you don’t know the sky is in the water, a boat full of clear dreams crushing the River of Stars … The second Princess read it a few times in a low voice. She felt that these two lines outlined a beautiful scene that only existed in nursery rhymes.
In the quiet night, she was wearing a beautiful dress and lying on the bow of the boat. Above her head was the vast starry sky, and the surface of the water reflected the River of Stars.
The small boat drifted on the lake, causing ripples as she slept peacefully.
Princess Lin an’s heart thumped twice.
The eldest princess’s eyes flickered, and she subconsciously moved her neck, as if she wanted to turn her head to look at Xu Qi ‘an, but she resisted.
She maintained her cool, White Lotus posture.
The surroundings fell into a strange silence as the princes carefully chewed and savored these two lines.
Unlike the second Princess, the princes felt a kind of ethereal air that was far away from the world and happy and content.
The atmosphere was relaxed, close to the world and nature, carefree, free of the work of writing tables, the disturbance of music, and the intrigue. At the same time, when he woke up from the dream, he would feel a little disappointed.
“Good poem, good poem …” The third Prince slapped the table in excitement. He felt as if he had just witnessed the birth of a famous piece of art. This was an honor that no scholar could resist.
“Is this the seven-Jue or the seven-law?” The seventh Prince, who was about the same age as Xu Qi ‘an, asked.
“No, only these two sentences …”
“!!!”
The princes were stunned, and they stared at him with complicated and strange expressions.
“Don’t joke.” The third Prince said angrily, somewhat anxious and irritated.”Behind, behind!”
He looked like a reader who had been tortured by the broken chapters and finally had the chance to meet the author in person. He suppressed his emotions and said, “I’ll give you one last chance, go and write your story!
. I really don’t have any more impromptu poems …” Xu Qi ‘an was a little ashamed. This poem was not in the textbook of the nine years of compulsory education.
Of course, as a cultured person, he couldn’t have only learned the poems in the textbooks. Usually, he would also collect some excellent poems, but he couldn’t remember all of them. He could only remember the essence of a few sentences.
This song was exactly like this.
“You, you …” The third Prince pointed at Xu Qi ‘an. He was so angry that he could not speak.
The other princes coldly watched from the side, secretly supporting the third Prince in dealing with the broken Zhang dog.
The eldest Princess stood up and said, “”Xu ningyan, accompany bengong for a walk.”
“Preposterous …” The third Prince slammed the table in anger as he watched the two of them leave.
“It’s a pity,” The Crown Prince shook his head.
“Oh, I remember now.” The second Princess suddenly called out,”I haven’t even asked him how the Sang Bo case is going.”
It was him! The Crown Prince narrowed his eyes. No wonder he felt that the name Xu Qi ‘an was familiar. After the second Princess’ reminder, he remembered this nobody.
……
The eldest Princess dismissed the guards and Palace maids and walked side by side with Xu Qi ‘an by the lake.
