The cocktail party was over. The officials and scholars left in droves. Many people took the initiative to say hello to Qin Mubai, either giving a salute or exchanging pleasantries.
Qin Bin smiled and said: "Third brother, you will definitely become famous in Chang'an after drinking this meandering water."
"What about it?" Qin Mubai asked.
"Of course." Qin Bin said, "Chang'an was originally a popular place for poetry and prose. The most outstanding literati in the world gathered here. And in the palace of the King of Wei, there were a large number of the best literati.
Their recognition and approval is equivalent to the approval of the literati in Chang'an and even the entire Tang Dynasty. I believe your song "Will Enter the Wine" will be widely circulated. From today on, you can also be regarded as
A talented person."
"Haha!" Qin Mubai laughed. He wanted to tell his second brother that his poem was plagiarized. After thinking about it, he decided to forget it. If someone broke the casserole and asked, how could he justify himself? A person like Li Bai,
There is only one wonderful poem like "The Wine Will Be Entered" in all the ages, and it cannot be compiled by just any cat or dog.
The two brothers chatted and left, and had already left the Prince of Wei's Mansion. When they were about to board the car, a man who looked like an official came over and stopped the driver in a hurry. He stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "May I ask who is Qin Mubai, Mr. Qin?"
"That's it. What do you call me?" Qin Mubai got out of the car and returned the greeting.
The man bowed his hands and said, "Young Master Qin, please forgive me. I am Jiang Yaqing, who joined the army in the Record Office of the Prince of Wei. I am the one who recorded the poems just now when I was drinking wine in Qu Shui Shui."
"Oh, what do you think Jiang Canjun has to say?"
"I don't dare." Jiang Yaqing said, "I have great admiration for Master Qin's poems. I have also been ordered by the King of Wei to engrave the Master's poem "About to Enter the Wine" into an inscription. Therefore, I still have some small matters to ask for advice. Please excuse me for a moment.
Take a break."
"Oh... okay then." Qin Mubai agreed and asked Qin Bin to take the car back to the palace first, and followed Jiang Yaqing into the palace.
The two of them returned to Prince Wei's Mansion. All the officials and scholars in the palace had left, and it seemed relatively quiet. Qin Mubai thought to himself, why should you keep me here to discuss matters if you have a small record office and join the army? I guess, most of them are
King Li Tai of Wei wants to invite me back for a talk. People outside are talking too much, so you made excuses.
Walking to a quiet attic in the backyard, Jiang Yaqing stopped and bowed his hands and said, "Master Qin, please come up."
"Okay." Qin Mubai smiled knowingly: That's right. It must be Li Tai who is looking for me.
As soon as he walked up to this exquisite small building, the door upstairs was pushed open, and Li Tai's iconic chuckle came out: "Brother Mu Bai is here, I'm sorry, Xiao Wang is afraid that there will be too many people to see Mu Bai."
My brother is in a dilemma, so I came up with this strategy and asked Jiang Yaqing to invite you to come."
"Your Highness, your thoughts are reasonable." Qin Mubai smiled and returned the greeting, then walked into the room. He thought to himself: This Li Tai thinks about thousands of things, thinks about everything very carefully, considers everything thoroughly, and treats others with kindness.
He greets everyone with a smile. But why does he make me feel that he is...a bit sinister? In contrast, I think Li Ke is more upright and upright, and his temperament is more congenial to mine.
"Brother Mubai, please sit down." After Li Tai asked him to sit down, he personally held the pot and poured tea for him. He said with a smile, "Brother Mubai's song "Brother Mubai" will definitely be popular in the Tang Dynasty and will be famous for generations. Xiao Wang is right
I am so impressed by your talent."
"You dare, you dare." Qin Mubai said with a smile, "It's just random nonsense. Your Highness, please don't make fun of me."
"Haha, you can reach such a level with your nonsense. I think Mu Bai's talents are very comparable to others." Li Tai seemed to understand the principle of "Thousands of wears, but flattery cannot wear them", and he praised Qin Mubai eloquently.
It was a mess.
Qin Mubai was rarely happy. Firstly, this poem was originally plagiarized. The more people praised it, the more guilty he felt. Secondly, since showing love for nothing was either adultery or theft, his friendship with Li Tai
It's very ordinary to begin with. Isn't the reason why people are so proactive in trying to get close to each other because they are "Hundred Cavalry Envoys"?
