Chapter 12: What Poetry Party Did You Attend Without Bringing Your Works?

"Is that imperial concubine Xuan really as beautiful as you said? I don't believe she is more beautiful than Luo Shen."

Magu's figure suddenly appeared behind Xu Le and Wei Delu.

In Magu's heart, there are only a few people including Luoshen, Chang'e in the Moon Palace, the Fairy of the Hundred Flowers, etc. She doesn't believe that a mere mortal is more beautiful than those fairies.

Wei Delu looked back and happened to see Magu's figure. He was so scared that he was about to come out.

"Hero, why are you following us?"

Wei Delu looked at Magu timidly, and the psychological shadow Magu brought to him has not yet been eliminated.

"I am the escort of the young master. If I want to protect his safety, I will follow him wherever he goes."

Magu put his hand on Xu Le's shoulder and said.

Xu Le smiled and said, "With Master Ma following, I will be safe and worry-free!"

Xu Le was worried about encountering some monsters, but now Ma Gu followed her and she completely relieved her heart.

As long as you don’t encounter any big monster, Magu can solve it.

Besides, even if Magu can't beat her, she will call for reinforcements.

Magu’s relatives and friends are all immortals and gods. What monster dares to act rashly?

"Why do you seem unhappy? Is it because of me?"

Magu looked at Wei Delu with a bad expression.

Wei Delu was about to cry.

I was in a very depressed mood and wanted to go to Zuiyue Tower to relax. How could this fierce man keep up?

"I am at ease and happy wherever there, with heroes following me."

"Hahaha, look at how happy I am."

Wei Delu forced out a smile.

Zuiyue Tower is located next to the Huai River.

In recent years, Emperor Tianyuan has been abandoned in politics, and the entire Dayong has been infected with a slutty trend.

“So many light boats!”

Magu said curiously.

Xu Le smiled and said, "If it were night, it would be more beautiful."

The Huai River scenery is most famous for its light boats. At night, all the boats on the river are hung with colorful lanterns. People who travel to the Huai River must take a light boat.

Magu stood by the Huai River and was amazed inexplicably. In front of him, there were wealthy families gathered, brothels stood in a row, and the boats were blooming in the waves, making them beautiful places. Historic sites, gardens, boats, and markets were gathered together, which was extremely prosperous.

In the distance is Zuiyue Tower, which is a very spectacular attic, several meters high, brightly lit and magnificent. From time to time, the sound of men and women fighting can be heard.

Magu couldn't help but think of the poem: "When will the singing and dancing in the West Lake be stopped when will the green mountains beside the mountains beside the buildings?"

Isn’t this feeling and this scene just in line with this poem?

She has experienced the changes of the world and has a deeper understanding of this poem.

"Young Master Xu, Young Master Wei, you are here."

The erotic madam saw Wei Delu and Xu Le immediately surrounded him.

Magu looked at Xu Le: "Young Master, do you often come to this place?"

Xu Le felt a little guilty when he was seen.

"I don't come often. Every time Brother Wei pulls me, I come here."

Xu Le explained.

He wants to maintain his innocent image in front of Magu.

Magu heard Xu Le's words and gave Wei Delu a fierce look, and said to Xu Le: "Young Master, don't interact with him in the future, he won't learn well."

Wei Delu felt a little confused. Why did he glar at me? What did I do wrong again?

"Young Master Xu, you are here, we miss you so much."

"Young Master Xu, are you still sleeping together this time?"

"Mr. Xu, how many sisters will serve you this time?"

A group of beakers and swallows immediately surrounded Xu Le. The girls were dressed in colorful clothes and were very seductive.

Xu Le sighed in his heart, the character of a gentleman I created was gone like this.

Predecessor, you have caused me a lot of trouble.

Xu Le hurriedly pushed the group of Yingying Yanyan around him away. He walked to Magu and said, "Master, these women are like tigers, don't provoke them."

Magu curled his lips and said, "I heard from them that you are sleeping together and you have fun."

Xu Le...

Why do these women say everything?

It's over, my image in Magu's mind was completely ruined.

Xu Le asked Wei Delu next to him and said, "Brother Wei, didn't you say there was a poetry meeting today?"

"It probably hasn't started yet..."

Wei Delu said hesitantly.

"Yeah, isn't this Mr. Xu? Are you here to attend the poetry meeting?"

The person who spoke was a pretty man, who was looking at Xu Le with a sarcastic look on his face.

Xu Le learned from his memory that this person was his opponent, and his name was Lu Kang.

"Young Master Xu, if you don't write novels at home, what fun will you join in when you come to poetry?"

"Brother Lu, I'll forget if you don't say it. Brother Xu is now a famous novelist."

When talking about "novelists", this population is stressed, and the words are full of sarcasm.

In the eyes of these scholars, writing novels is not a good place, and writing novels is something that only those down-and-out scholars can do.

They called Xu Le not to praise him, but to mock him.

Xu Le was a little surprised. I was sarcastic, why were everyone attacking me?

This is all because of jealousy. Xu Le's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was famous in the Three Star City. In the hearts of ordinary people, Xu Le's reputation is even louder than that of the county's Zun Shikai.

This also made many scholars jealous of Xu Le.

Why can he gain such a great reputation?

This is like the "Liu Yong" in ancient China. Liu Yong was wandering all his life, but his reputation made the emperor jealous.

Why is Su Shi always targeted? His younger brother Su Zhe summarized it well: "What's the crime of Dongpo? He's so famous!"

What sin can my brother have? It’s just because he is so famous that others are jealous of him, so he suppresses him.

It was because Su Shi was so famous that he was suppressed repeatedly. Fortunately, Su Shi had a good mentality and would have collapsed if others had long been broken.

Seeing so many people targeting him, Xu Le didn't eat vegetarian food, and immediately retorted: "What? Will this poem be published by your family? I can't come here, right?"

Lu Kang sneered: "Of course I didn't hold a poetry meeting, but all the classmates who came to attend the poetry meeting have brought their own works. Where are your works, Brother Xu?"

Lu Kang saw that Xu Le had no hands and then spoke sarcastic.

Others echoed.

"If you don't bring your own works, what poetry meeting should you attend?"

“Where are you going back and forth?”

"Brother Xu, if you can't take out the work, just leave."

People around him mocked Xu Le.

Seeing Xu Le being so excluded, Wei Delu couldn't stand it anymore.

"Have you ever heard of the green mountains and buildings outside the mountains and when will the West Lake be stopped singing and dancing? That is a poem that even Lord Qin Ming praised."

"And these two lines of poetry were written by Brother Xu."

"If a person who can write such a poem is turned away from the poetry club, this poetry club will become a laughing stock."

Wei Delu coldly glanced at the people around him and said.

After Wei Delu finished speaking, the surroundings fell into silence.
