As soon as the court meeting ended, Jia Zheng hurried back to his mansion.
As soon as I got off the car, I went through the transfer door and went straight to the back house.
As soon as I entered Jia Mu's courtyard, I saw the old lady and her children enjoying the cool air in the courtyard.
Tables and stools were set up and dominoes were wiped.
"I've met my mother!"
Jia Zheng came forward to greet him.
"I've met the master!" "I've met my uncle!" "I've met my uncle!"
When Baoyu, Sanchun, Baochai and Daiyu saw him coming, they all put down their dominoes and stood up to salute.
Yuanyang quickly brought an embroidered pier over and asked Jia Zheng to sit down.
Jia Mu handed the cards in her hand to Yuanyang and looked at Jia Zheng.
He asked doubtfully: "Did something happen again at the court meeting? You didn't even change into court clothes, and you came here in a hurry."
Jia Zheng hesitated for a moment.
It’s not a bad thing to think about, and it doesn’t hurt to let the kids hear it.
Then he smiled and said, "It's about Yibo."
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the table looked at Jia Zheng curiously.
Especially Baochai and Daiyu, after hearing this, they tightly held the dominoes they just picked up.
Their heads were lowered, but their ears were perked up.
When Jia Mu heard that it was Feng Yibo, she frowned and said:
"What trouble did he get into again?"
This was her first impression.
As soon as I heard the words Feng Yibo, I felt that there must be nothing good going on.
But Jia Zheng shook his head and said with a smile:
"It's not about getting into trouble, it's about being promoted!"
"oh?"
Jia Mu was suddenly surprised.
Baoyu curled his lips and muttered in a low voice: "He is really a fool."
Being glared at by Daiyu next to her, she lost her smile.
"Yibo was promoted to two ranks because he wrote a poem at the court meeting today."
Jia Zheng didn't sell it and told the matter directly.
"Now he is a sixth-grade minister of the Hanlin Academy, and he has also led imperial envoys to inspect the Japanese pirates in the south of the Yangtze River and conduct military training."
"You! Haha! How can anyone in this world get promoted by writing poetry?"
When Jia Mu heard this, she was immediately amused. She nodded and said to Jia Zheng:
"Although my old lady doesn't understand the affairs of the court, she also knows that she was promoted to an official after receiving an imperial envoy and going out on patrol on behalf of the emperor."
"That's what mother said!"
Naturally, Jia Zheng deliberately made his mother happy.
After saying this, he added:
"But when Yibo finished his poem, the whole Tai Chi Hall was completely silent, everyone was amazed by his poetic talent."
"Even the Holy One cheered!"
Jia Mu was really surprised this time and asked curiously:
"Oh? What kind of poem did he write?"
"This poem has a great pattern. If he can make a difference while he is here, it will be praised throughout the ages!"
Jia Zheng first gave a few words of praise, then stood up and said, "Listen carefully!"
He followed Feng Yibo's example and took a good pose.
He cleared his throat again, raised his head and chanted:
"Everyone can rest easy for the time being, and worry about Japan."
"Come and greet the guests with wine bottles, wave your bows and sit down to talk about war."
"The clouds protect toothpicks, and the stars contain swords."
"I don't want to be granted the title of Marquis, but I only hope that the sea will be peaceful!"
All the girls present were frightened by the courage and style of the last sentence.
For a moment, the entire courtyard was silent, just like before in the Tai Chi Hall.
Only Baoyu muttered in a low voice: "There is something wrong with the rhythm of the first sentence at the beginning of this poem."
Everyone was savoring the artistic conception, and this murmur immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"What poetry do you know?"
Daiyu was right next to him, and she was not angry when she heard this.
She said coldly: "This is obviously a temporary work. It is normal for the meter to be different. It is not an imperial examination. The meter needs to be strictly followed."
Baoyu was dissatisfied when he heard this, raised his chin and said:
"Then there is the last sentence. Although it looks heroic, the word 'only' is not used correctly!"
"Um……"
As he said this, he stood up and thought about it for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"You should use the word 'but', otherwise the meter will be wrong!"
"In the last sentence, it's best to use the word 'WEI'!"
Daiyu was even more dissatisfied when she saw that he was still thinking about his words.
"Although the word 'but' is metrically correct, the heroic and open-minded momentum is missing a lot!"
In fact, she also thinks the word "but" is suitable, but so what?
This is a bit like helping relatives but not taking care of others.
Everyone looked at Daiyu and snickered secretly.
"Baoyu, you should study more about the knowledge of saints on weekdays. Poetry is a minor path after all."
Seeing Daiyu speak out, Baochai was not willing to lag behind.
She didn't show any bells and whistles, she directly attacked Baoyu's vitals.
"Brother Feng is also ranked third in the top tier, so how can he not understand the rules?"
This is to use fame and fame to suppress people, and no one can find fault with them.
Seeing that both of them were defending Feng Yibo, Baoyu frowned and said:
"But the meter of this poem is just wrong!"
Jia Zheng and Sanchun fell into deep thought, and seemed to think that what Baoyu said made sense.
"Poetry is not just metrical poetry. This poem is obviously an ancient five-character poem."
Daiyu took a different approach and did not discuss rhythm with him.
He also glanced sideways at Baoyu and said, "Besides, the imperial examination focuses on rhythm, but this poem is more important on pattern!"
"Then..."
Bao Yu just wanted to refute.
"My sister is right, what's more, my uncle also said just now that his poems are the ones that have been praised by the Holy Spirit..."
Baochai didn't let him continue, interrupted directly and unleashed a decisive blow.
"yes!"
Daiyu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she echoed:
"The Holy One said it's okay, but you just say it's not okay?"
"I……"
Bao Yugang was about to defend.
"In the end, Baochai gave it careful consideration. Since what the Holy One said is the final conclusion, there is no need to discuss the matter further."
When Jia Mu heard that the royal family was involved, she immediately stopped her.
Baoyu was held back, gasping for air, turning her face and wanting to leave.
Unexpectedly, after taking a few steps, Jia Zheng frowned and said:
"Where are you going?"
"The elder is still here, why don't you just leave without even saying hello?"
"Have you lost all the rules?"
He asked three questions in a row, leaving Baoyu speechless.
He looked at Jia Zheng angrily and muttered:
"me……"
"What are you?"
Jia Zheng suddenly frowned.
"I'll send you to a private school, and you'll spend three days fishing and two days drying nets?"
It turned out that he remembered that Baoyu should have been attending school at home at this time.
Instead of wiping dominoes in the inner house!
"What else can you do? Useless waste seeds!"
Jia Zheng was furious and began to look for the person who could take advantage of him.
"I think you won't mention studying anymore from now on. If you mention it again, even our ancestors will be embarrassed to death!"
Cursing and cursing, he thought about being in court today.
That "other people's child".
Suddenly he became even more angry.
"Look at your Feng family brother. He is only eighteen years old and has already passed the imperial examination. Now he has reached the sixth rank and has received the title of Imperial Envoy!"
"In the future, it will not be Feng Tanhua and Feng Editor, but Feng Shidao and Feng Qinchao!"
Baoyu had been scolded stupid and stood there at a loss.
Neither advancing nor retreating.
A look of "Who am I? Where am I?" leaves no room for rebuttal.
"What about you again?"
"Besides spending the whole day in the pile of makeup, hanging out with the sisters, and engaging in squabbles, what else can you do?"
Seeing that Jia Zheng couldn't find anything he could take advantage of, he picked up Jin Dun and sat down.
Jia Mu finally couldn't bear it anymore and angrily said:
"Okay! Are you here to announce the good news, or are you here to cause trouble for me?"
