Chapter 24: The Most Talented Woman in Kyoto
A dimple appeared on Qiu Liyue's face, and she looked at Qiu Lixing and said, "Sister, have you forgotten that you have been the only one learning to dance since childhood, and I have never learned to dance, so how can I dance?"
There is really an ulterior motive for asking someone who can't dance to dance, not to mention that this person is her own sister? What's your intention? Qiu Liyue's words made the onlookers look at Qiu Lixing with more inquisitive eyes.
.
Qiu Lixing couldn't help but froze, and quickly slowed down her smile. When she raised her eyes again, the corners of her eyes were a little aggrieved, "I'm sorry, sister, I was so happy that I neglected it. Please don't take offense, sister! Princess, I
I apologize to you on behalf of my sister."
It seems that Yun Ruo has been teaching Qiu Lixing a lot during this period. Qiu Liyue turned the situation around with just a few words, and quietly hinted to everyone that she actually didn't have much talent.
"Ha!" Princess Lixia sneered, with undisguised contempt on her face, "Turns out I was wrong! Whatever!"
As Princess Lixia finished speaking, all the daughters could not help but look at Qiu Liyue with a hint of contempt. It turned out that of the two women in the Qiu Mansion, one was the most talented girl in Kyoto, and the other was a loser.
Two rich ladies who were standing next to Qiu Liyue calmly took two steps back and put a considerable distance between themselves and her.
"Lixia..." An Xiaoman couldn't stand it. Just when he was about to speak for Qiu Liyue, Qiu Liyue tugged on her sleeve and said in a clear voice, "Princess Lixia misunderstood, I just said that I don't know how to do it."
dance."
Everyone turned their attention to Qiu Liyue, and saw her Tingting walking towards the painted arena, and then ordered the maid beside her, "Yuyou, help me grind!"
After two cups of tea, Qiu Liyue put away her pen and stood up, nodding to Youyou, who then took the painting Qiu Liyue had just finished and sent it to the judges' office.
Qiu Lixing glanced at Qiu Liyue, who was pretending to be calm, and couldn't help but feel a hint of ridicule at the corner of her mouth. She naturally knew that Qiu Liyue's paintings, although not bad, did not prevail among the many rich ladies, let alone
No matter compared to her.
After a while, everyone saw that Princess Lixia, who had been presiding over the competition, suddenly left, and they couldn't help but look at each other. At this time, they heard Zhang Fuzi, the dean of White Deer Academy, say, "Because of Miss Qiu Liyue's painting, so, just now
There have been some changes in the results of the competition. Now I will re-read it. Mo Ying Ranle from the Zhongyong Hou Mansion came first, Ning Luo Geqi, the daughter of the Minister of War, came first, Qiu Li Xingwu, the daughter of the Minister of Hubu, came first.
His daughter Qiu Liyue ranks first in calligraphy, poetry, and painting."
Zhang Fuzi's words caused the quiet crowd to explode instantly. Wasn't it just a painting? How come he got three first places in an instant? As if he expected such a reaction, Zhang Fuzi touched his gray goat.
Huzi said loudly, "In order to show that the competition is fair, I will now show Qiu Liyue's painting to everyone."
Zhang Fuzi said and motioned to the maid next to him to hang the painting. Unwilling to be reconciled and unconvinced, the curious young ladies and gentlemen immediately gathered around and saw that what was painted on the rice paper was the scene of the beautiful cherry blossoms they had just admired.
The clusters of flowers seemed even more beautiful than what they had just seen.
In the upper right corner of the painting is a small poem, "The light smoke is slowly spreading, and the beauty is blooming to express the spring. It is true that the Emperor of the East has dressed up skillfully, and is busy for no reason to look at the flowers." This small poem is written with hairpin flowers.
Written in small regular script, the overall look is like a bunch of beautiful cherry blossoms in the painting.
Such a picture scroll, such fonts, and such poetry are already too beautiful to behold, but more importantly, everyone knows that this painting and this poem are performed on the spot, and that they can do this in a short period of time, which is enough to prove Qiu Liyue's ability.
Beautiful thoughts.
Everyone who had just looked down upon Qiu Liyue with disdain couldn't help but feel a little more admiration and envy when they looked at Qiu Liyue. No one was stupid, and they knew that Qiu Liyue deserved her first place.
Just when everyone was nodding in praise, they heard the sound of "buzzing" again. Several wealthy ladies were shocked and their faces turned pale. They saw a dozen bees flying over their heads and pounced on the hanging scroll. Everyone was stunned.
Suddenly, it turns out that these bees actually regarded the beautiful cherry blossoms painted by Qiu Liyue as real flowers.
"This Miss Qiu is such a beautiful lady!" I don't know which lady finally couldn't help but praise aloud.
"Yes, Miss Qiu Liyue is truly the number one talented woman in Kyoto!"
"Looking at people through words, although Miss Qiu writes in small regular script with hairpin flowers, there is a dignified atmosphere between the horizontal and vertical outlines. She is a beautiful and elegant person. It can be seen that the rumors we have heard these days are not true!"
"Yes! How can he be that kind of person who can write such words, draw such paintings, and compose such poems?"
Qiu Lixing, who was standing outside the crowd and listened to the undisguised discussions of these ladies, had her face turning blue and white. She had tried her best to please these famous ladies and make friends with Princess Lixia. She had been hinting at this for so long, either explicitly or implicitly.
, this caused Qiu Liyue's reputation to be ruined. Today, she only wanted to see Qiu Liyue make a fool of herself, and she hoped that she would stand out among these rich ladies and attract the attention of the princes. But who would have thought that after all her efforts, she would not be able to make a fool of herself.
Made a wedding dress for her.
Thinking of this, Qiu Lixing glanced at Qiu Liyue again, and saw that at this moment, like stars over the moon, a group of young ladies were surrounding her, talking to her about something, while the young men not far away had no expressions in their eyes.
Not hiding his passion.
It should have been me who could achieve all this! It was me! Qiu Lixing clenched her fists tightly, and unconsciously, deep bruises were made on her palms. Damn you bitch, bitch, bitch!
Qiu Liyue accidentally glanced at Qiu Lixing's fiery gaze, and the smile on her lips became even bigger.
Yes! If she had not been reborn, her calligraphy, paintings, and poems would not be on the stage at all. She also wrote a hundred characters a day, and if Qiu Lixing wrote anything poorly, Yun Ruo would order her to write all of them.
Rewrite, and Qiu Liyue, even if all her hundred words are ghost drawings, Yun Ruo will not criticize her, she will only say that she wrote well, thank you for your hard work!
She once thought that this was Yun Ruo's favor for her. After living a lifetime, she realized how terrible this kind of favor was! In the last life, after the Hundred Flowers Banquet, until her death, in the past three or four years, she
During these days of being imprisoned in various ways, she could pass her time by writing, drawing, and reading!
She does this for about 10 hours a day, otherwise the loneliness will soak her heart, and time is better like the water on the eaves after the rain, dripping down slowly, drop by drop.
.Every day, she always waits, waits, waits, waits for a long time until the morning sun slowly moves over the Western Mountains little by little.
