Chapter 216: The Seven Great Families, Zheng Family, Zheng Xiao
At this moment, everyone has no meaning, they all want to start quickly.
Use this to express yourself and let these big guys know their true value.
"Everyone, today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the moon this year is also exceptionally round.
Let’s make one with the theme of the moon as our first poem.”
"Excellent, excellent."
"In this case, each of us will have a stick of incense to think about it, please."
All the young men stood aside and racked their brains to think.
The theme of the moon is difficult to say, but it is not difficult at all.
But if you want to be the best among everyone, you need some skills.
"Master, they are having a competition. Using the moon as the theme, master, do you want to go out in person and knock them all down?"
Zhao Mu shook his head. There are many poems about the moon that have been passed down through the ages among Tang poetry and Song Dynasty poetry.
Even if you pick out a poem at random, it can blind everyone's eyes.
I'm not the kind of person who likes to show off, so I just leave as if I'm done watching a fun show.
Okay, Master.
Linglong originally imagined that her young master would kill everyone, but it seemed impossible.
The young master Zhou who had just been fighting with him was now like a little pug surrounding those young masters.
"Master, this pastry is delicious, do you want to eat a piece?
What about you, Xiaoyue, don’t you and the young master want to eat?"
"I said Linglong, you have already eaten so much tonight, why are you still eating here?
Although it is a blessing to be able to eat, it is easy to gain weight."
"Master, I don't know what's going on. Anyway, I eat delicious food every day, but I don't gain weight and am still so thin. What should I do?"
Zhao Mu's old face couldn't help but twitch.
Her words must not be spread to the ears of other people, especially those who lose weight in future generations.
If they find out about it, they will definitely not despise you to death.
"Uh-huh, young master, did I say something wrong again?"
While eating this in my mouth, I couldn't even pronounce the words clearly.
"Xiaoyue, you eat too!"
"I know, Sister Linglong!"
The two of them also picked up the pastries and started eating.
Previously, Li Yue was worried that she would be recognized by others when she was visiting Chang'an City.
Just thinking about it, I sighed helplessly.
Except for his father, queen, queen, and some princes, grandsons, and ministers who know him, in the eyes of others, his sense of existence is very low.
Of course, because the sense of presence is very low, it saves me a lot of trouble.
"I said, you are such a strange person."
While the three of them were eating and chatting, a sudden voice came over.
Attracting the attention of all three people, he looked up and saw that a woman of about seventeen or eighteen years old appeared in front of him.
I saw her looking at Zhao Mu with a puzzled look on her face, and saying something strange, strange, really strange.
After hearing the strange sounds she made, Zhao Mu asked.
"I wonder, girl, you think we are strange, but why are we so strange?"
"Before I answer your question, can you answer me a question first?"
"Of course, just ask."
"What's your name? Are you from Chang'an City?"
"My name is Zhao Mu,
If the Chang'an City you are talking about specifically refers to the people in Chang'an City, then I don't.
I am from a small village in a county surrounding Chang'an City.
If Xiaozhuangzi, located around Chang'an City, is also a Chang'an person, then I should also be considered a Chang'an person."
"Then is there anyone in your family who is a high official?"
"I am an ordinary small landowner. My family cultivates thousands of acres of fertile land and makes a living!"
"Oh I got it.
The other gentlemen and ladies are all preparing poems there, but why are you the only one sitting there unmoved?
Are you ready to give up, or do you think you are more confident than everyone else?"
"This is already the third question you've asked. Who are you?"
"I am from the Zheng family in Xingyang. I came to Chang'an to play. Have you heard of the seven major families of the Tang Dynasty?
The Zheng family in Xingyang is my family."
He said with pride on his face. After all, the status of these seven major families has indeed brought them great convenience!
They also have their own pride!
"When I first came to the second floor, the first thing I saw was you.
The other young men and young ladies all stood up to greet you, but you were the only one who sat aside and remained unmoved.
Hurry up and prepare your poems. You will shine in a while. I have already recommended you to my cousin.
If you can perform very well in poetry and poetry, I can recommend you to the Wang family!"
What's the meaning?
"Hey, okay, stop pretending, I already know your little thoughts.
My cousin is right, you use this method to attract our attention.
But you have to understand that our families will not raise useless people, nor will they raise idle people.
As long as you have the ability, we will naturally include you in the family.
Don't worry, if you behave like an ordinary person, I can also tell my father and let you join our Zheng family.
Don’t ask why, because you are handsome and I think you are a good person.”
The ancients did not deceive me, it turned out that handsome people can really be used as food.
"cousin!"
"Oh, my cousin called me. My name is Zheng Xiao. I won't tell you now. I have to go there!"
"Cousin, cousin!"
"Oh, cousin, I'm here, I'm such an adult and I won't run away.
I was a little curious when I saw the young master I met just now, so I went over to join in the fun!"
"You are so innocent. If something happens in the future and you are deceived by others, you will still help others count their money."
Hearing what his cousin said, Zheng Xiao stuck out his tongue, stood aside, and began to watch quietly.
Time flies so fast that the time for a stick of incense arrives in a blink of an eye.
"Everyone, it's time to burn incense. Everyone must have finished their poems, right?
I wonder which young man will be the first to stand up and help us?"
If the first one can stand up, he will definitely be remembered by these young men, but the prerequisite is that the poems he writes are good enough.
If the food cooked by oneself is too much, it will have the opposite effect, and everyone is very confused for a while.
A bet was made that a bicycle would turn into a motorcycle, and a bet would turn a motorcycle into a car. At this time, a young man stood up first and saluted.
"Master Lu, Xiaosheng thinks that since all the young masters and ladies are of noble status, it is better for this young master to take the lead in composing poems so that we can learn from them."
Yes, yes, everyone nodded.
Compared with all the gentlemen and young ladies, they are all small people, so we can leave these small people to write poems later.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, please invite Mr. Lu and all the young ladies to take the lead in reciting poems."
