Chapter 50 Old wine in new bottles, smoke locked in pond willows

At this time, the prince's uncle and the current emperor's cousin, Prince Xiao, drank a few more cups of yellow soup, and he no longer knew what was going on.

He was also crazy. After he got drunk, he pulled Zhou Yan's sleeves and tried to fight him.

He said that he had a new guest there recently and found an interesting couplet in an ancient book.

He had been wrong for many days and looked for many people, but he could not come up with a neat, smooth, harmonious and rich artistic conception. As a result, he gave the guest a lot of rewards.

Now that he has finally been caught, Zhou Yan, he must be asked to help him regain his place.

Zhou Yan shook his head helplessly. The emperor was used to it. If he didn't do anything extraordinary one day, he would still think it was abnormal!

But he had no choice but to persuade him with good words, and he could only obey, just like coaxing a child: "Your Majesty, tell me, my nephew will definitely help you if he can!"

"Listen... hiccup - this first couplet screams, screams, smoke locks pond willows!" After saying that, regardless of everyone's reaction, he collapsed on his seat and fell asleep.

After Zhou Yan asked someone to carry it down, he kept thinking about this couplet, and even everyone here was thinking -

It's not difficult to match up with this pair, but it's too difficult to get them right.

Prince Xiao is right to say that it is indeed extremely difficult to do the Five Elements to the Five Elements, the artistic conception is clear and elegant, and it is smooth and neat, but it is not impossible to do it right.

The beacon was sold out, and the pavilion lanterns were sinking. Du Heng thought about it twice, and thought about it again, as if he was being forced, so he frowned in dissatisfaction.

Zhou Yan said with great grace:

"Everyone, Prince Xiao, this couple is really interesting, and it's at my prince's banquet. Why don't I, prince, be more generous, and simply offer a lucky draw, and the one with the best chance will win! I, the prince, will first throw some light on the opponent, and try to make a fool of himself.

Reclamation tower'!"

After saying that, he took off the jade pendant with double dragon pattern from his waist and placed it on the red lacquer tray beside him.

Everyone present whispered to each other, the ten princes were accustomed to never leaving this jade pendant, and now using it as a lucky draw was almost like a hot potato.

Therefore, the male guests in the venue either remained silent or did some perfunctory second couplets at the end of the crane; but the ladies and ladies in the venue were all eager to give it a try.

Everyone thought about it for about a cup of tea, and Du Weilan was the first to speak: "The tenth prince, my ministers are talking about 'Peach Burning Jinjiang Embankment'."

"Wonderful!" Many people present cheered. Is the quality so high from the start? Moreover, the cheerful meaning contained in the second couplet coincides with Du Weilan's own temperament.

But when she said it, the second line of the couplet seemed to be on a higher level.

This is indeed good, Du Heng thought to himself. Inspired by her, Du Heng himself made another mistake in his mind: "The maples on the river bank are sold in autumn".

"Your Highness, I would like to express my gratitude to the 'Mirror Burning Tears and Dream Ruins'." A seemingly frail lady said. She looked as deeply resentful towards the second couplet as she did.

"I'm very fond of 'Lamp hanging over the edge of the brocade'..."

"I'll come, I'll come up with a 'Mo Ran Jian Lingquan'!"

…

Du Heng couldn't help but nod his head, it was all good, but it would be hard to have the same amazing feeling as the first one. This Du Weilan does have two brushes.

Zhou Yan glanced at Zhou Xian, who had been drinking silently, and said, "My nephew, what can I say?"

Zhou Xian said nothing and continued to drink, leaving Zhou Yan to dry.

People present began to whisper:

"The grandson is too much. Although he is the grandson, the tenth prince is also an elder!"

"Who says it's not the case? It's the first time I've seen him target Master Ten like this."

"I think there is a reason for this! Isn't His Highness Taisun's ex-fiancée the most talented woman in the capital? If she were still alive, how could anyone else be in the limelight today——"

"It's true that you said that. What do you mean, your Majesty the Grand Sun misses the Miss Lin family?"

…

The whispers intensified, but Zhou Xian stood up and bowed politely:

"Uncle Ten, don't blame me. The wine in the house is so sweet and intoxicating that I can't help but eat two glasses. Besides, this couple is very important, but I have to let my nephew think about it..."

Zhou Yan had a good temper and asked gently: "But have you thought about it?"

"Of course. Uncle Ten, listen to me -" Zhou Xian was right about "Zhi Gong Jue and Shang" and "Zhong Chen Qi Yan Nan".

Before anyone could react, Zhou Yan smiled, filling the room with light and making all the ladies look hot.

"Nephew, in terms of neatness and neatness, no one is better than you.

Then you took a different approach and used the five tones 'Gong Shang Jiao Zheng Yu' and the four directions 'East, West, South, North, Middle' to the five elements 'Yansuo Pondliu', which is even better! Uncle Yu admires it!"

Zhou Xian couldn't help but held up his hands and begged for mercy: "What are you talking about, uncle? My nephew thought about it for a long time and found that he couldn't compare with you ladies, so he had to make this decision. It really makes everyone laugh!"

Du Heng couldn't help but feel disgusted when he saw Zhou Xian and Zhou Yan couldn't help but flatter each other, and the compliments coming out from the spectators were like a string of farts.

It wasn't until about the end that everyone began to discuss who should give this jade pendant. Zhou Xian definitely wouldn't want it, and the one with the highest voice was Du Weilan, who had made a name for himself.

Just when Zhou Yan was about to raise his hand, Xiao Zimei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up with a shy smile and said to Zhou Yan: "Your Highness, can you give me a try?"

Zhou Yan stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture.

Xiao Zimei attended, and what was surprising was that instead of making a couplet, she made a poem:

"The willow color of Yansuo Pond is deep, and the shadow of lights on Shuijianba Bridge is dark;

The elm fire rises to the moon on the Qiantang River, and the tears of candles comb through the dusty face of the mirror;

The ember of the hairpin on the wall wets the jade bones, the spear is buried in the sand and the beacon shines on the soul;

The peach burns in the city to illuminate the bright day, and the stove money and pine wine burn to the dusk.”

After finishing reading, she walked to the middle of the banquet, about seven steps away from her seat.

What a wonderful sentence! Everyone sighed in their hearts.

Wonderful, although there are some minor regrets, but as the saying goes, imperfect is beautiful. Any work handed down from generation to generation is famous for its profound meaning, either majestic and caring for the country and the people, or gentle, graceful, sad and beautiful. I have never heard of it.

Because it is a neat match against what has been passed down from generation to generation.

Xiao Zimei's poem is a pair of seven couplets, and the poem changes from one pair to another, with the same artistic conception. Unexpectedly, she is also an amazingly talented person!

Du Heng looked at her with interest:

How many secrets does this cousin of hers hide? Now it seems that she is always a person who "does not let go of eagles when she sees rabbits"; so why is she so brilliant today?

Zhou Yan stared at Xiao Zimei with burning eyes, the smile and admiration in his eyes seemed to be able to drown any woman in it.

He put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly, hiding his smile: "It seems that everyone has an undisputed winner in their hearts -"

Yansuo Pondliu is really old, but it’s easy to use~

This is the most complete answer I have ever seen. You can take a look.
