Su Chang...
Chapter 232 Who is the mysterious sister-in-law?
After all, the restaurant had just become quiet before Xia Yaomo took his seat, so the students heard everything Xia Yaomo said clearly.
Moreover, because of this, everyone looked surprised.
Because there is something really bizarre and puzzling in those words.
The examiner who had asked the question earlier was also surprised. He looked at Xia Yaomo in front of him and asked in confusion, "You are not a student? If you are not a student, how did you get in? And you said you were helping your sister-in-law pass something on. Who is your sister-in-law? Didn't she know that this is a feast of grace? How did she let you come in to pass something on during this fight today?"
It can be said that this examiner asked the question that expressed the thoughts of all the students present.
After all, when they heard the person who suddenly walked out just now asked this question, they were also wondering about these two things.
And of course
It was at the table where Xia Yaomo was sitting just now. Although it was far away, after all, he asked the student in front, so he immediately knew what Xia Yaomo said.
Immediately, everyone looked at each other in confusion.
"Didn't he go up there to revise and present the poem? How did he become someone who was helping his sister-in-law pass on something?"
"You ask me, I don't know. And he said they are not in the same department, so how did he sit at our table?"
"He couldn't have sneaked in, after all, he used our Banquet of Grace as a place for a blind date."
"How dare someone who sneaked in do this?"
"Is he still trying to attract attention? Don't forget that he just said that his poems are as good as the Empress's "Quiet Night Thoughts"."
"Well, it's possible. This boy may seem simple, but he actually has a deep mind."
"Who is his sister-in-law? I don't know who she is. He just said that his sister-in-law supported him to come here to find a girl he likes. I don't think she is a good person."
…
Everyone at the table was talking to each other, looking at Xia Yaomo in surprise. Those who already looked down on Xia Yaomo didn't even think of anything good, and just thought that Xia Yaomo did it on purpose.
Zhu Zhuo couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhang Yiran.
Zhu Zhuo thought about it carefully and shook his head helplessly. Although these people made malicious speculations, there were indeed many strange things that Xia Yaomo did not explain clearly.
but.
The people at this table were talking one after another, and the people at the neighboring tables could naturally hear it clearly. In particular, they noticed that Xia Yaomo was sitting at this table, and someone came over curiously and asked in a low voice.
But it just so happened that the people who asked the question were those who looked down on Xia Yaomo.
Immediately
After those people added fuel to the fire, the words like Xia Yaomo just asked himself that he could win the favor of the girls present by presenting poems, suddenly changed its meaning, and it became directly that Xia Yaomo pretended to be a student and deliberately mixed in with them, just to find girls. The girls were naturally the talented women who passed the imperial examination today.
Especially since Xia Yaomo had just boasted that the poems he had written were almost the same as those written by the Queen!
He changed it to say that the poems he wrote were better than those written by the Queen.
Moreover, when this poem is taken out, some talented ladies present will say that they favor him.
The students who didn't know the truth were shocked when they heard these things. Then they looked at Xia Yaomo in amazement, wondering how could such a shameless person exist! !
When the female scholars heard this, they were even more angry, thinking that this man took them for granted! !
Those girls on Flower Street?!
Therefore, many talented women were furious after hearing these people's exaggerated words, and some even thought about going forward to ask Mu Xu and others to make the decision, but they still endured it.
However, most people looked at Xia Yaomo and thought he was as ridiculous as an actor!
What level is this? He actually said that the poems he has can compare with those of the Queen!
Her Majesty the Queen is like the 'Immortal Poet'. How can a mere mortal like you compare to her?
When Zhu Zhuo and Zhang Yiran heard these words, they no longer sat there but immediately stood up to explain and clarify.
Apart from the two of them, the others also felt that although Xia Yaomo was a bit weird and ugly, as a scholar, how could he discredit others like this, so they also explained.
Those who deliberately compiled the story were frightened when they saw that the matter suddenly became a big deal and went to explain.
But now
Who would be willing to listen to what they say?
So for some inexplicable reason, Xia Yaomo became the object of resentment among many students. They were just waiting for Xia Yaomo to explain to the adults in the upper seats. If the explanation was not clear, some of them had already decided to tell them about these things.
but
Xia Yaomo didn't know about these things. Instead, he took out the paper with the revised version of Quiet Night Thoughts from his bosom and said, "Sir, my sister-in-law asked me to pass this thing to Old Master Su."
Hearing
The examiner glanced at the paper in Xia Yaomo's hand, then turned to look at Su Wenqing.
Mu Xu and the others had been curious since Xia Yaomo stepped out, and especially after Xia Yaomo said those words, they were even more surprised.
And Mu Xu even looked at Xun Kuang, as if asking what was going on.
Xun Kuang looked at Xia Yaomo with an innocent and puzzled look, because if he was not a Jinshi, he would not be able to get in.
On the one hand, Yang Shanchang, Yang Guofu and others were also looking at this student curiously, but at the same time, Yang Guofu and Yan Jingqing were thinking that if a non-top scholar really sneaked in, although nothing would happen, it would be a joke for Su Wenqing and Mu Xu.
So Yang Guofu and Yan Jingqing remained calm but were waiting for things to develop.
After Su Wenqing saw the examiner nod slightly, he continued to look at Xia Yaomo in confusion.
Because if the person who came in was not a student, then it could only be the prince he had greeted. However, Su Wenqing hadn't seen Xia Yaomo for a long time, so he was not very sure.
After getting permission, the examiner took the paper from Xia Yaomo and respectfully handed it to Su Wenqing.
When Su Wenqing took the paper, Mu Xu had already leaned over to see what was written on it.
Su Wenqing smiled helplessly and didn't try to hide anything. At this point, there was nothing to hide from Mu Xu.
So open the paper.
But when they saw the handwriting on the paper, the two old men were stunned.
Because the handwriting looks familiar.
But regardless of that, the two of them looked at the content first.
'The moonlight shines brightly in front of my bed, I wonder if it is frost on the ground. I look up at the moon and think of my hometown.'
It is a poem similar to Quiet Night Thoughts.
This made Mu Xu and Su Wenqing stunned for a moment.
But immediately
The two important officials of the dynasty were all stunned.
Because it’s different from the previous one!
"I changed two words," Mu Xu couldn't help but say, and then he carefully looked at the revised "Quiet Night Thoughts" on the current paper. After repeating it, Mu Xu slapped his thigh and said, "Yes! ! It's an impeccable poem. Why change it? How to change it! Just make it catchy!"
Then he repeated with a surprised smile: "The moonlight shines brightly before my bed, I wonder if it is frost on the ground. I look up at the bright moon, and I look down and think of my hometown. I changed the "see" in the first sentence to "bright", and no longer looked. Besides, there is already moonlight under the moonlight, so why do we need to look? Also, the "see the mountain moon" was changed to "bright moonlight", which got rid of the vulgarity and became simpler and more straightforward, and the artistic conception was much clearer."
At this point, Mu Xu looked at Su Wenqing with joy like a naughty boy and said, "We are so foolish, Wenqing, we are all so foolish. We only thought about how to replace the poem, but forgot the most basic things."
Although Su Wenqing was not as good as Mu Xu, he also repeated the revised "Quiet Night Thoughts" with a helpless look on his face. Not only was it catchy, but the language was clear and simple, and the charm was implicit and infinite. In particular, the feeling of homesickness as a guest was simple and straightforward.
Su Wenqing shook his head. Just as Mu Xu said, they were only thinking about how to change more things. They really forgot that if they wanted to improve such a simple, straightforward and perfect poem, there was no need to change any suffixes or artistic conception.
The officials on the side naturally heard Mu Xu's words. They looked at the poems in their hands and even picked up their pens. They changed "watching the moonlight" to "bright moonlight" and "looking at the mountain moon" to "looking at the bright moon" as Mu Xu said.
Then they recited it again one by one, and their faces changed immediately. Just as Mu Xu, the great priest, said, the whole poem was instantly elevated to a higher level.
Immediately!
All the officials looked at Xia Yaomo.
Even Yang Guofu and Yan Jingqing, who had just been looking forward to seeing Su Wenqing and Mu Xu making a fool of themselves, were slightly startled and looked at Xia Yaomo in surprise.
Yang Shanchang smiled and savored it and said: "Poetry is straightforward, but after the revision, it is easy to recite, and the content is easy to understand, but also full of taste. After this poem, if you talk about homesickness, you must recite this poem!"
The students below also heard what Mu Xu said just now. They all looked at the Quiet Night in their hands and thought it was extraordinary.
Moreover, the news spread quickly and soon reached the table where Xia Yaomo was sitting and the surrounding Jinshi students who were angry with Xia Yaomo.
After hearing this, the students immediately tried to savor it carefully, all of them pursed their lips, feeling it was incredible.
Then he looked at Xia Yaomo with surprise.
Among them, the person who had just sat at the same table with me was the most incredible. He seemed to be savoring it, but every time he savored it, he felt that although only two words were changed, it was like the finishing touch!
At this moment, everyone looked at Xia Yaomo again, their expressions changed slightly, and they felt that you really have this ability!
Even those who believed the edited story were surprised.
After all, this was something that everyone thought was impossible, but it was accomplished by such a scoundrel!
After Mu Xu finished speaking, he immediately looked at Xia Yaomo and said, "I don't care whether you are a student or a successful candidate. Tell me first. Did you change this?"
Xia Yaomo shook his head honestly, "No, it was my sister-in-law who changed it. Didn't I just say that? I was helping my sister-in-law pass these on."
When these words came out, Mu Xu was stunned.
The people around, including the students, were all stunned after hearing the message.
Those who looked down on Xia Yaomo were even more surprised.
But at the same time, I was relieved. I thought, how could a scoundrel who only thinks about women have such literary talent? And if you don't have such literary talent, why didn't you say so earlier? Who are you trying to scare with one sentence after another?
But everyone looked at Xia Yaomo with a serious expression, because they were wondering who Xia Yaomo's sister-in-law was.
It can be modified so exquisitely!
There are many people with extraordinary literary talent in the world, but it is rare to find someone who can revise the Empress's poems, and do it so beautifully!
Who is the sister-in-law this young man is talking about?
But the next moment, everyone looked at Su Wenqing who was staring at the paper.
Thinking that this poem was originally given to Su Wenqing by the Queen Mother, no one else knew about it.
Could it be that the sister-in-law this young man was talking about was the Queen?
But thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look at Xia Yaomo.
After thinking about it, I felt that how could this be possible? If the Queen wanted to give the answer long ago, she would have given it long ago. Could it be that she forgot it? Did she only remember it after knowing this today?
Thinking of this, everyone felt it was impossible!
But if it wasn't the Empress, wouldn't it be that Old Master Su told the poems to others and then leaked them out?
Comparing the two, everyone felt that the latter seemed more likely, and the former was too outrageous. How could the Queen, who was so intelligent and talented in writing, forget the poems she had written!
Mu Xu was also stunned for a moment, squinted his eyes and looked at Su Wenqing, a little uncertain, and quickly looked at Xia Yaomo and asked, "Who is your sister-in-law?"
Xia Yaomo shook his head: "Don't say it."
Mu Xu was speechless.
What a good one that is not allowed to be said!
Everyone looked at Xia Yaomo and was surprised again. "Grand Priest Mu is asking you a question, and you're not letting me speak?"
But Mu Xu frowned slightly, looking at the child in front of him and suddenly remembered that he had not asked his name yet.
But just when Mu Xu was about to speak, Xia Yaomo clasped his fists and said, "Master Jijiu, my sister-in-law asked me to pass on something."
Mu Xu was stunned and immediately said, "Take it out and let me see it?"
Xia Yaomo shook his head and said, "It's not for you."
After saying this, Mu Xu curled his lips again. Whose kid is this? Why is he so straightforward like that little girl Yan Ruyu?
However, Mu Xu was even more curious about who this sister-in-law was.
And it wasn't just Mu Xu, almost everyone was curious.
After all, just the act of changing the poem was enough to make many people present want to know his name.
But in response to Xia Yaomo's answer, everyone smiled helplessly.
but
After Xia Yaomo bowed to Mu Xu, he took out a piece of paper from his arms and walked towards Su Linhan.
Everyone looked at Xia Yaomo's actions, especially when they saw Xia Yaomo walk in front of Su Linhan, which made everyone even more confused.
His sister-in-law handed something over to Miss Linhan! ?
What is this?
Does this mysterious sister-in-law have so many connections?
However, those who had just sat at the same table with Xia Yaomo were all surprised, especially those who stood up and saw from afar Xia Yaomo taking out a piece of paper and handing it to Su Linhan, and they were reminded of what Xia Yaomo had just asked Su Linhan.
"Isn't he dedicating the poem to Miss Linhan?"
"What are you talking about? Didn't he say he was going to pass it on to his sister-in-law? And it looks like he was just passing it on? Didn't he just take out three pieces of paper? He specifically said one of them was his own."
"So who is his sister-in-law?"
"This is the old master and Miss Linhan's, don't tell me it's really..."
"How is that possible! Look at him, he looks so silly, calling the Queen 'sister-in-law'. Could he be a prince?"
Several people were still whispering.
Although Su Linhan took the paper at this time, she also looked at Xia Yaomo curiously. Although she wanted to ask something, she opened the paper and looked at what was written inside first.
Cui Yuer was sitting next to Su Linhan, and they had always had a good relationship. However, Su Linhan seldom went out, so the two of them seldom met.
But when they really met, they still felt very familiar, so Cui Yuer stretched her neck to look.
However, Su Linhan was stunned when she saw the handwriting, and subconsciously thought, "Big sister's handwriting?"
But thinking this, I still looked at the contents on the paper.
There are also poems on the paper, very short ones.
'Last night the rain was light and the wind was strong, I could not sleep off the hangover. I asked the person who rolled up the curtains, but he said the crabapple tree was still the same. Do you know, do you know? It should be green and fat, red and thin.'
Seeing this poem, Su Linhan was stunned for a moment.
Cui Yuer's face immediately became serious. She looked at the poem carefully, as if she had read it several times, and subconsciously recited the last sentence: "Do you know, do you know? It should be green and fat, and red and thin."
Cui Yuer then looked at Xia Yaomo in surprise, but before she could speak, she immediately stood up, bowed to Xia Yaomo and said, "Who is your sister-in-law? There are very few people in the capital who can write such poems, but which female teacher or lady is she?"
Seeing Cui Yuer like this, everyone was even more confused.
However, the top ten students at the same table heard the words from "Do You Know" that Cui Yuer had just recited, and they all looked at Xia Yaomo in surprise.
Although there is no previous sentence, the words and sentences are quite new and can be called strange!
This is the case with just one sentence, what about the whole text?
However, although they were curious, they were not familiar with Su Linhan after all. In addition, since Su Linhan was the queen's sister and the second daughter of the Su family, they did not dare to go over and take a look.
However, Su Linhan saw the words written under the poem.
Because her body was blocking the view, Cui Yuer didn't see it.
"Sister, I wrote this for you, so you don't have to think about your lost crabapple flower. By the way, congratulations on your passing the exam. When my wedding ceremony begins, I will cook a good meal for you when I return home. The queen will cook for you personally, so you can enjoy it secretly."
'This guy has a poem in his hand, it's pretty good, but I gave it to him to chase girls. If you want to read it, you can read it, but remember to return it immediately after reading it. I think this guy is not very smart, and he is clingy. Don't let it be misunderstood that you like him, he is stupid and not worthy of my sister.'
Seeing this, Su Linhan smiled, because she knew that this mysterious sister-in-law was her older sister.
In an instant, Su Linhan understood why the revision of "Quiet Night Thoughts" was so perfect, and she also thought about how this poem was written so well.
only
Thinking of the fact that my elder sister still remembered that I had just mentioned casually that I had killed several pots of crabapple flowers, I smiled and immediately felt that it was great to have an elder sister. I just mentioned it casually, but my elder sister remembered it and wrote it into such a beautiful poem.
At this time, everyone was looking at Su Linhan and Cui Yuer.
They noticed Su Linhan's smile and were all surprised! !
Because Su Linhan's smile is extremely rare!
Although Su Linhan is usually easy-going and friendly, her expression is always indifferent, and her elegant aura makes her seem a little cold, making it difficult for people to get close to her.
But now I'm laughing!
I still received the paper that guy sent over!
This made everyone confused.
Especially Su Linhan's old father Su Zimu, he frowned slightly and looked at Xia Yaomo carefully. If it wasn't inappropriate, he would have walked up to him and questioned him!
The people who had just sat at the same table with Xia Yaomo were dumbfounded at the moment.
What?
Why did Miss Linhan smile? !
What's wrong with you kid?
Mu Xu didn't care about that. He just wanted to ask what kind of poem was written on the paper. After all, Cui Yuer had just mentioned the poem, but he was embarrassed to go over and ask the junior directly, so he looked at Xun Kuang.
Xun Kuang turned his head away and pretended not to see it. If you are embarrassed, then I am embarrassed! ?
Xia Yaomo looked at Cui Yuer and clasped his fists before saying, "I can't tell you."
Cui Yuer curled her lips.
While Cui Yuer was feeling depressed.
The old Grand Tutor Su Wenqing also saw the paper in his hand at this moment. There was more content on it than just this, there was another sentence below.
"Master, why didn't you come to see me when you couldn't figure it out? I had forgotten about it. But seeing that you are in good health today, I am relieved. I will come to see you another day."
Seeing this sentence, Su Wenqing was stunned for a moment, but from the way it was spoken, Su Wenqing immediately knew who it was. He laughed out loud and shook his head helplessly.
This stinky girl!!
No wonder it can be improved so well, no wonder
I guess it’s for Invitation Mo!
When thinking about this, Su Wenqing looked at Xia Yaomo and smiled. “That’s what I said, you are so stupid, just like the Eleventh Prince at that time!”
At the same time, Su Zimu saw his father suddenly laugh and was puzzled.
Mu Xu even asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Do you know who this kid's sister-in-law is?"
Su Wenqing ignored Mu Xu and handed the paper in his hand to Su Zimu.
And he stood up himself.
but
When Su Wenqing stood up, Su Linhan had already copied the poem and handed it to Gu Chiyu, who was beside him, looking eager but not daring to speak.
after
Su Linhan stood up and looked at Xia Yaomo, bowed and said, "My lord, I wish you good health."
…
PS: Okay, okay, you all think I am disconnected, but I never disconnect!
