Chapter 22 Peach Blossom Spring

The poetry meeting was held in the most famous Peach Blossom Spring in Seyuan. It is said that this is what Zheng Qingzhi means.

Peach Blossom Land is a scenic spot in the Seyuan. At that time, Shi Miyuan had a favorite concubine who loved peach blossoms, so Shi Miyuan specially built this Taoyuan with several acres of radius in the Seyuan for his favorite concubine, and was named Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Land.

In this peach blossom land of several acres, various peach trees that Shi Miyuan has found from all over the place are planted. Whenever the warm spring comes, countless pink peach blossoms bloom in competition. The fallen flowers are colorful and the fragrance floats for several miles, bringing a grand scene in Lin'an City.

It is said that when the Peach Blossom Land was first built, Zhao Yun personally admired the scenery every year. Of course, Zhao Yun came to the Seyuan to see the peach blossoms all over the garden, but it also indirectly confirmed the reputation of the Peach Blossom Land.

More than 200 scholars said that there were not many more, but for this Peach Blossom Land, it was enough to accommodate them. These scholars sat on the ground with three tables, five seats, and enjoyed peach blossoms, wine and food, which was so leisurely.

Jia Sidao is naturally among them.

At his table, in addition to him, there was Yang Duo who was familiar with him at the Qionglin Banquet; in addition to Yang Duo, Shi Xiang didn't know what he thought, but he also stayed at Jia Sidao's table.

Shi Xiang was with Jia Sidao, so Nalan Yu naturally had the same table with Jia Sidao again.

Jia Sidao's table has attracted everyone's attention.

It is not a secret that Shi Xiang and Jia Sidao were jealous of Huang Jiao Niang in Lelou, but now the two of them sat at the same table and had a great time talking. Judging from their appearance, Shi Xiang even deliberately wanted to please him.

Of course, the most important thing is because of Nalan Yu.

The girls who were invited from various brothels have not yet come out. Now all men appear in the Peach Blossom Land are Nalan Yu, and they are also an extremely beautiful and stunning beauty.

Judging from the way Nalan Yu and Jia Sidao and Shi Xiang were chatting and laughing, it was obvious that this woman was not a forbidden body for both of them, but at least a person with almost the same identities as the two.

It is difficult to attract attention if such a woman with status and appearance.

However, this chatting and laughing are just a sign that others have seen. If someone hears the conversation between Jia Sidao and Nalan Yu, then even if they are beaten to death, they will not think that they are chatting and laughing.

"Young Master Jia can write poems?"

"I don't know much about it, Jia only knows how to recite poems."

"Recite a poem?"

"Yes, I recite poems. Mr. Jia is so lustful."

"The lustful hand is so wet?"

"...It's true that Miss Nalan is interested? Jia must do his best to teach Miss Nalan to be lustful."

"Does Mr. Jia want to teach Nalan Cricket Sutra?"

“…”

Shi Xiang next to him listened to the two of them verbally and sweated constantly on his forehead. If he had known that Nalan Yu would have smashed Jia Sidao into the lake, he would never have promised his sister to bring Nalan Yu to this Seyuan Poetry Club.

It was okay with Zheng Hong being with him on the way, but when he entered Seyuan, Zheng Hong as the master, naturally had to arrange something. After Zheng Hong left, Nalan Yu began to quarrel with Jia Sidao.

Jia Sidao needs to win over, and he can't afford to offend Nalan Yu as his sister's distinguished guest. Fortunately, someone came to help him save the situation.

"Brother Shi Xian, I regretted the incident last night. I came to apologize! Brother Shi Xian is so kind, please accept me if I pay my respects!" Yu Ci came out from somewhere and bowed deeply to Jia Sidao. Although his face was flushed, he still said aloud.

Yu Ci's voice was very loud. The poetry meeting had not started at this moment. Before the emperor's teacher Zheng Qingzhi arrived, the noisy peach forest was instantly quiet.

No one expected that Yu Ci would take the initiative to apologize to Jia Sidao on such an occasion today, and even held the etiquette of a student.

Among the hundreds of people present at Qionglin Banquet last night, except for Nalan Yu who didn't know the specific situation, the rest of them were very clear about the past. Although they were not very clear about the inside, everyone knew that the passage inside would definitely not be as Jia Sidao said, as Yu Ci came to report him.

After all, Yu Ci, the son of Yu Tianxi, is also a celebrity in Lin'an City? Not one or two people who know Yu Ci and are familiar with him.

In fact, before this, these scholars still had great expectations for today's Seyuan Poetry Conference. In addition to the meeting of the imperial teacher Zheng Qingzhi, this expectation also wanted to see how Yu Ci and Jia Sidao will start and end after meeting.

Although Jia Sidao let Yu Ci go last night, he could be said to have given Yu Tianxi a great face and spared the Yu family from humiliation, but no one thought that Yu Ci would be a good person. On the contrary, Yu Ci was not a petty person, but definitely not a person with open mind.

Yu Ci has a deep background, and Jia Sidao is not far from it.

Those who were consciously not very talented in poetry came to the Seyuan poetry party today. Apart from watching some beauties join in the fun, the rest was to see the battle between dragons and tigers that seemed inevitable in their eyes.

I have thought about many things about what kind of situation Yu Ci would be when he saw Jia Sidao today, either with cold eyebrows or harsh words, but I didn't expect it would be like this scene now.

Is this still the arrogant Yu Ziwan once?

Could it be that Yu Ziwan was smashed and lost his memory like Jia Shixian? Otherwise, how could he perform the disciple's ritual in front of so many people? And he also said something to apologize?

Jia Sidao, who was fighting with Nalan Yu, didn't expect Yu Ci to come to him like this. But is this true or false?

"Brother Ziwan, what are you doing? You are trying to make me, Jia Shixian, live a long life."

Countless pairs of eyes were watching, and Jia Sidao hurriedly stood up and held Yu Ci and said anxiously. However, Fu Yu Ci was stubborn and motionless.

"Brother Shi Xian, please accept your son's wish!"

What was this to play? After a brief shock, the scholars began to whisper.

"Brother Ziwan, aren't you worshipping me?" Jia Sidao whispered.

"Zi Wan hasn't bowed yet!" Yu Ci said as he broke free from Jia Sidao and took two steps back and bowed deeply to Jia Sidao.

“…”

Jia Sidao was stunned for a moment but received Yu Ci's solemn gift. Of course, this was because he was not very clear about what Yu Ci's gift had. If he knew that this bow was actually holding the disciple's gift, he would definitely not accept it.

"Bang!"

Just at this moment, a crisp sound of bang resounded throughout the Peach Blossom Land.

The scholars who were still talking about it all closed their voices and sat upright.

Is this the poetry meeting going to begin?

"Brother Ziwan, please sit down quickly." Jia Sidao pulled Yu Ci, who was flushed but had an extremely clear look on the side of Xiaoqi.

Nalan Yu looked at Jia Sidao with a puzzled look and then at Yu Ci who was sitting upright, and told her directly that she seemed to have missed something. Driven by curiosity, he pulled Shi Xiang and asked in a low voice.

...

Four old men with white beards and floating in long robes appeared outside the garden. The person who bent to lead the way was Zheng Hong, the initiator of this poetry meeting, and who was not the imperial teacher Zheng Qingzhi in the middle?

Peach blossom tree is not all peach trees. In order to facilitate the viewing, Shi Miyuan specially built a pavilion in the open area in the center of Peach Blossom Land, named Tinglan Pavilion.

Jia Sidao only knew Zheng Qingzhi, but he didn't know any of the other three old men.

The seats had been placed in the Tinglan Pavilion. As Zheng Qingzhi and the other four sat down, the scholars stood up one after another and said in unison: "Students pay homage to Master Zheng, and to Master Zheng!"

The remaining five elderly people are obviously all famous and well-known people.

"No need to be polite. Today, I have time to invite Master Yuan, Master Du, and Master Li to come and guide you. Don't let Master Yuan, Master Du, and Master Li be disappointed."

Zheng Qingzhi bowed to the three old men sitting next to him and said aloud.

"Students should follow Teacher Zheng's teachings."

"Then, Master Yuan, Master Du, Master Li, the poetry meeting will begin now?" Zheng Qingzhi smiled at the three old men beside him.

"Mr. Zheng is the master." The three old men, known as Master Yuan, Master Du and Master Li, smiled and bowed back and said.

As the four of them finished greetings, a large number of servants brought the prepared paper, ink, pens and inkstones and placed them in front of the scholars.

The atmosphere suddenly became lively.

The literary style of the Song Dynasty was extremely prosperous, and there were actually not many false rituals between the top and the bottom. Especially when discussing knowledge, the trend was extremely open-minded, and it was common sense to comment and circulate each other.

What's more, reciting poems and lyrics is a matter of elegance. How can such elegant things make the atmosphere extremely dull? Isn't this a matter of losing the fun of reciting poems and lyrics?

The melodious drum music sounded, and a large group of women in various colorful skirts came gracefully from the falling peach forest. The scenery was beautiful, the flowers were beautiful, and the people were even more beautiful. The people were more beautiful than the flowers, and the flowers reflected the people.

The fragrance of women of all kinds gathered together instantly overwhelmed the faint fragrance of peach blossoms, making people unable to help but sway.

There is no doubt about this, and naturally they are the top brands or famous prostitutes in various brothels who have been dressing up in the backyard.

The group of women came and then stopped at the edge of the peach forest on the side of Tinglan Pavilion. Dozens of Seyuan slaves quickly pulled up a long and wide pink gauze tent to gather the women's standing.

But there is a place for these women to rest, and there are naturally wine and banquets in the gauze tent. And through the pink gauze tent, you can still see the scenery outside, but it is not easy to see the beauty inside.

With the appearance of these women, the already warm atmosphere suddenly became even higher. The men of the men had sharply increased their hormones. In such a grand occasion, if they could get two or three good words and sentences, they would not only win the appreciation of Master Zheng, especially Master Zheng, but they might also be able to embrace the beauty.
