In the Qin Mansion, in the boudoir.
Qin Nan wrote the last word on the rice paper, put the pen on the pen holder, and admired it carefully. Suddenly he remembered the peach trees in the courtyard, which were in their most beautiful bloom at this time.
On a whim, Qin Nan was about to go out to enjoy the flowers. Unexpectedly, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and an imposing young man with an appearance that was 45% similar to her strode in.
As soon as Qin Yue saw Qin Nan, he immediately said in surprise: "Sister, do you know who is coming to the house to listen to the class today?"
At this time, Qin Nan's heart was focused on those peach trees, so naturally he was not in the mood to guess riddles.
But Qin Yue blurted out in excitement: "The people who came to listen today include Zuo Zongyuan, the son of Zuo Yushi, and Li Zhonghong, the son of Li Shangshu."
Then he lowered his voice, but he couldn't suppress the surprise in his voice.
"There is another noble person among them that you would never expect. The fifth prince is also here."
Qin Nan also looked slightly surprised: "Fifth prince?"
"Yes." Qin Yue said with a smile: "I was shocked when I heard it."
Then he added: "However, the fifth prince is friendly to others and has no airs. He is also a person who likes poetry. After we got acquainted with each other, we talked happily."
At this time, Qin Nan asked curiously: "In that case, if you don't entertain the distinguished guests well, what are you doing here?"
"It's not because of Mr. Li's words." Qin Yue looked a little helpless: "When everyone was talking, Mr. Li suddenly mentioned my little sister and said that little sister, you have both the appearance of a country and the ability to sweep your eyebrows. Therefore, Everyone is admiring you, and even the fifth prince wants to meet you."
After hearing this, Qin Nan frowned slightly and said displeasedly: "You listen to academic discussions, how can there be any reason for me to attend?"
Qin Yue hurriedly smiled and said: "Of course I know, I didn't come here to invite my little sister."
"Then what are you doing?"
Qin Yue said: "Then Mr. Li also knows that today is not the right time, so he wants to invite my little sister to participate in the Spring Poetry Party held in Qianjing Lake three days later."
Qin Nan originally wanted to refuse, but thought that since his eldest brother came to deliver the message, he must have received his father's permission, so it was difficult to refuse. After thinking for a while, he nodded slowly.
Qin Yue's expression became relaxed and he smiled: "Since you agreed, I'll go there first."
Qin Nan said: "I also want to see the peach blossoms in the courtyard at this time, let's go together."
Qin Yue was about to leave when he suddenly saw rice paper spread out on the desk in the room. There seemed to be a poem written on it, but he didn't know if the little girl wrote it herself or copied it. However, he also knew his sister's temperament. He only wrote poems and lyrics for his own entertainment and did not like to spread the word.
His heart moved and he said to Qin Nan: "I seem to have left my jade pendant here with you yesterday. You should go first and I will look for it."
Qin Nan had no doubt about it, nodded slightly and started walking towards the yard.
After Qin Nan left the room, Qin Yue took a few steps to the desk and looked at the poems on the rice paper.
He had never heard of this poem, and it was obviously a new one written by his younger sister.
He felt happy, gently rolled up the rice paper, and hurried out of the room.
After passing through several corridors, he came to an elegant courtyard.
As soon as the courtyard door was opened, several handsome and talented men smiled and said, "Brother Qin is back."
One of them, a talented man with a free and easy manner and a cheerful attitude, even came forward to greet him.
"I wonder if Miss Qin agrees to participate in the poetry meeting?"
Qin Yue smiled and said, "My sister-in-law agreed."
Li Zhonghong immediately beamed with joy and hurriedly saluted: "Thank you, Brother Qin."
Then his eyes fell on the scroll of paper in Qin Yue's hand, and he said, "What is that in Brother Qin's hand?"
Qin Yue raised the scroll in his hand and said modestly: "This is a new poem written by my sister-in-law."
After hearing this, everyone stood up one after another and waited eagerly.
Although Qin Nan's talents have been spread in the capital, very little is known about how high her talents are. This is because Qin Nan has an indifferent nature, and her poems and articles are hidden in the boudoir, and there are few works in the world.
Although Li Zhonghong highly praised Qin Nan's talents, anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that he admired Qin Nan very much, so his words were inevitably a bit exaggerated.
Now Qin Yue actually had her new work in his hands, which aroused everyone's interest. Even the fifth prince Zhou Qi looked at Qin Yue with interest.
Qin Zhidao looked at Zhou Qi and called, "Yue'er."
Qin Yue immediately walked quickly to the desk, placed the scroll on the table, and unfolded it.
As the scroll slowly unrolled, Juan's elegant handwriting immediately appeared in Zhou Qi's eyes, and then he slowly read: "Last year, today, in this door, the human face and the peach blossoms reflected each other's red color. The human face did not know where to go, but the peach blossoms were still smiling. spring breeze."
When Zhou Qi first read it, he only thought that the poem was catchy, and its form and content were fresh and unique. When he savored it carefully, he felt that the poem was meaningful and endlessly memorable.
After hearing this, others could not help but show a hint of shock in their eyes. This poem seems simple and ordinary, but if they are asked to write a similar poem, it is beyond the reach of their talents.
After a long time, Zhou Qi sighed: "This poem reduces complexity to simplicity and moves people with emotion. Miss Qin deserves to have the talent of sweeping eyebrows."
Qin Zhidao was full of doubts. He knew about Qin Nan's talent, and he was considered a leader among the younger generation.
But in his opinion, her talent and learning were not enough to write such a poem.
But this poem was indeed written by Qin Nan himself, and I had never heard of this poem before.
Seeing Zhou Qi's praise, Qin Zhidao could only suppress the doubts in his heart, bowed slightly and said: "My little girl is not talented, she cannot deserve such praise from the fifth prince."
Just when everyone was shocked, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open, and a beautiful girl appeared in the courtyard.
Even though she suddenly faced so many people, the girl still looked relaxed and generous, without any restraint.
She gave a salute and said slowly: "I have met my father, and I have met all the gentlemen."
When everyone saw the girl, they couldn't help but marvel in their hearts, and then they all stood up and returned the favor.
Li Zhonghong was even more surprised, his eyes were attracted by a magnet and he could no longer leave Qin Nan.
Qin Yue was surprised and couldn't help but ask: "Little sister, why are you here?"
Qin Nan's face darkened, looking at the poems on the desk, he couldn't help but ask: "Brother, why did you take it without telling me?"
Qin Yue's expression immediately became a little embarrassed. When he was at a loss, Li Zhonghong couldn't help but stepped forward and saluted: "I've met my junior sister."
Li Zhonghong also studied under Kong Wenshun, so he and Qin Nan can be regarded as brothers and sisters.
Qin Nan looked calm and replied: "I have met Senior Brother Li."
Li Zhonghong suppressed the excitement in his heart and said with a smile: "Junior sister, there is no need to blame Brother Qin. Anyone can be moved by such a masterpiece."
Qin Nan couldn't help but sigh: "I don't blame my brother for spreading this poem, but I blame him for taking it without telling me. I don't know the reason for it, and I'm afraid it will cause misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" Everyone looked at Qin Nan in confusion.
Qin Nan explained: "I copied this poem, and the author is someone else."
Qin Yue was shocked when he heard this: "This...this poem was not written by you, little sister?"
Qin Nan said slowly: "Today Master Kong and I were visiting the Yudai River, and we met a young master on the way. This poem was written by that young master. I just liked it in my heart, so I copied it on paper."
Only then did everyone realize that something had happened, but everyone was extremely curious about the young master Qin Nan mentioned.
Zhou Qi originally liked poetry, and he admired this poem very much. He also wanted to get to know the author of this poem, so he couldn't help but ask, "Does Miss Qin know that young master?"
Qin Nan saw that Zhou Qi was noble and knew his identity, so he wanted to give him a big gift.
Zhou Qi hurriedly stopped and said with a smile: "Today is just a gathering of friends, Miss Qin cannot be seen outside."
Seeing the situation, Qin Nan stopped insisting and shook his head gently: "Master Kong and I don't know that young master."
Zhou Qi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "Does Miss Qin know her name?"
Qin Nan shook his head again: "Master Kong's family was in an emergency at that time, and we had to say goodbye to the young master in a hurry. We didn't have time to find out his name. Master Kong still feels regretful until now."
When everyone was disappointed, a servant suddenly hurried to the yard.
The servant ran in a hurry and stood in front of the courtyard gate, panting and looking panicked, as if he had encountered something difficult.
Qin Yue scolded: "Why are you so flustered?"
The servant looked at Qin Yue and hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Someone wants to see the master."
Qin Yue scolded again: "Didn't I tell you that my father will not see visitors today?"
The servant murmured: "But the visitor said that he must see the master today, otherwise he will not leave."
Qin Yue said angrily: "Who is so bold and dares to act wildly in Qin Mansion?"
The servant hurriedly lowered his head and replied: "The person coming is Su Shi, the second son of General Su's mansion."
