Chapter 168 Daughter Willing to Marry Yang Ling
"Today, Yang Ling happened to be invited to attend this poetry meeting."
"Oh? Could it be that he created some masterpiece that surprised the lord so much?"
"It's not just a masterpiece, it's an eternal masterpiece!"
Cao Cao sighed.
Although everyone knows that Yang Ling is a talented person, they have never seen him write any poems or songs.
What poem did he write that made Cao Cao, who was extremely accomplished in literature, give such a high evaluation as "an eternal masterpiece"?
Cao Cao had no intention of hiding it and handed the folds in his hand to several people.
After Xun Yu and Guo Jia took it, they looked at it carefully.
Even Jia Xu, who had always been low-key, couldn't help but come forward.
The excerpt was recorded from the beginning of the poetry meeting. When they saw the sentence "Articles are made by nature, they can be found by chance", everyone's eyes lit up.
"Poetry and literature are valued in nature. What Mr. Yang Ling said is really quite reasonable."
Guo Jia nodded slightly and praised.
Everyone continued to look down, and soon came to where Yang Ling was reciting "Ode to the Goddess of Luo" in front of everyone.
Like Cao Pi, Cao Zhi and others, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others were also shocked!
As graceful as a frightened giant, as graceful as a wandering dragon.
It seems like the moon is covered by light clouds, and the fluttering snow is like the flowing wind.
…
This beautiful and imaginative poem is really amazing!
The whole article is beautifully written, the words are luxuriant, the imagination is rich, and it is a metaphor for the past and present. No wonder Cao Cao praised it as an eternal masterpiece!
Xun Yu took a long breath, shook his head and smiled bitterly,
"What my lord said is absolutely right! This Fu can be compared with Qu Song's "Nine Songs" and "Goddess Fu"!"
Qu Song is Qu Yuan and Song Yu. The "Nine Songs" and "Ode to the Goddess" written by the two of them are all sung by future generations, so their literary status goes without saying.
Xun Yu compared Yang Ling to the two, which shows his admiration for Yang Ling!
The other people present also deeply agreed and nodded in agreement.
"This Yang Ling can always come up with new tricks for me!"
Cao Cao couldn't help but shook his head and laughed.
"I just don't know what kind of woman it is that can make the teacher so obsessed with her."
Cao Ang, standing behind Cao Cao, smiled.
Yes, Yang Ling also has several stunning beauties around him, but what kind of strange woman can he remember so much that he can even compose such a masterpiece that will be handed down from generation to generation?
For a time, everyone present felt infinite yearning for the woman in the poem.
However, after hearing Cao Ang's words, Cao Cao showed a thoughtful expression on his face.
As a literary master, he certainly knows that many times authors just use their works to express their feelings.
Just like in "Ode to the Goddess of Luo", Yang Ling expresses infinite sadness and melancholy.
But with his current identity and status, and being accompanied by several beautiful women, what is there to be sad about?
Unless... he was aware of his suspicion of him?
Cao Cao's heart moved.
Yang Ling is not a person who likes to appear in public. Why did he go to the poetry meeting today and write such a legendary poem in public?
Could it be that because of his own suspicion, he expressed his melancholy and sadness through this?
Looking at the words used by Yang Ling in "Luo Shen Fu" such as sigh, chant, hate, sorrow, resentment, mourning, tears and other words, the more Cao Cao thought about it, the more it seemed possible!
That must be the case!
Thinking about Yang Ling's painstaking efforts in the past to make suggestions for himself, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little guilty!
Why!
It’s all my fault that I was too paranoid for hurting the heart of such a loyal subordinate!
No, I have to make up for Yang Ling!
Cao Cao thought about it and finally made up his mind and said to Cao Ang,
"Zixiu, go and call your sister."
Cao Ang was startled and immediately took the order and left.
…
After leaving the poetry meeting, Cao Qing remained silent on the way back.
In her mind, "Luo Shen Fu" and Yang Ling's handsome face kept echoing!
Before today, in Cao Qing's heart, Yang Ling was just a lustful person who coveted the power of the Cao family!
But at this moment, Cao Qing realized that she was wrong!
How can Yang Ling be a despicable person if he can produce a work as poignant, pathos, and beautifully eloquent as "Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River"?
Although his younger brother Zihuan said that Yang Ling already had several lovely wives and concubines in his house.
But it is reasonable for him to be so literary and elegant!
If I marry him in the future, as long as he treats me well...
Bah bah bah, why did I start fantasizing about marrying him?
Cao Qing quickly shook her head.
Cao Xian, who was following her, saw this situation and said in confusion,
"Sister Qing, what's going on?"
"You don't know something about this. My sister is obviously fascinated by Yang Ling, and she feels regretful in her heart."
Cao Hua said with a smile.
"But it's no wonder, Yang Ling is not only handsome, but also so talented. Besides my sister, what woman can't be tempted by her?"
Cao Jie joked.
"You three little girls, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear your mouths apart!"
Cao Qing glared at the three sisters and threatened them with a straight face.
Cao Jie's three daughters looked at each other and stuck out their tongues, not daring to offend their sister again.
The four of them returned to the General. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Cao Ang walking over.
"I've met my brother!"
Cao Qing and his daughters saluted together.
Cao Ang nodded towards Cao Jie and the three little girls, and then said to Cao Qing,
"Why are you coming back now? Father has been waiting for you."
wait for me?
Could it be because of her marriage to Yang Ling?
Cao Qing's heart moved, and she followed Cao Ang to the study.
"I've met my father!"
Cao Qing saluted Cao Cao.
"Qing'er, you're back."
Seeing Cao Qing's arrival, Cao Cao showed a somewhat loving smile.
"How have you considered what you said to your father yesterday?"
"Report to father that my daughter is willing to marry Yang Ling."
Cao Qing whispered.
"Qing'er, don't refuse in a hurry. That Yang Ling is definitely a genius. Although there are several concubines in the family, it doesn't matter. A real man... wait, what did you say?"
Cao Cao's eyes widened.
"My daughter said she is willing to marry Yang Ling."
Cao Qing was a little ashamed and repeated her words again.
Cao Cao couldn't believe his ears.
Yesterday, he just told Cao Qing that he planned to let Yang Ling marry Cao Qing, but she met with fierce opposition.
The father and daughter even had a quarrel over this.
Unexpectedly, Cao Qing agreed after one night.
"You...why did you change your mind all of a sudden?"
Cao Cao was a little depressed.
He had prepared a lot of rhetoric, but he didn't expect Cao Qing to go against common sense!
"My daughter also went to the poetry meeting today."
After hearing this, Cao Cao suddenly realized.
That's right.
Yang Ling already has a good personality, and he has written famous poems such as "Luo Shen Fu", so it is reasonable for his daughter to change her mind.
