Chapter 350: I really didn’t want to pretend to be so cool

Chen Ya really never thought about pretending to be such a standard literary young man.

What is the standard literary youth? That is Xin Qiji's "The Case of Sapphire: Yuan Xi".

Although this poem is definitely a must-copy for those who traveled through the Northern Song Dynasty, as long as it was written before Xin Qiji was born.

However, Chen Ya really didn't want to win any praise through this.

Dude, you will be reincarnated for eternity, so you don’t have to rely on this to make a living!

The reason why Chen Ya still copied out this poem was purely because of the excitement on the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and he felt that this poem was really suitable for the occasion.

Doesn't "A Night of Fish and Dragon Dance" describe a night of pleasure between him and his wives?

And the sentence "Looking back suddenly, that person is in the dim light."

It just outlines the scene when he captured the three women who were hiding because of their aunt's visit! This scene is simply amazing.

Chen Ya just wanted to use this poem to commemorate the most erotic night in his life. He never thought that among the wives and concubines, there were also young and artistic women.

Just like those classic songs that will be passed down from generation to generation a thousand years later, from Bai Fumei to street girls, who doesn’t like to listen to them? Who doesn’t like to sing them?

The same is true for "The Green Jade Case: Yuan Xi". In this dynasty where lyrics are more popular than poetry, how can such high-quality lyrics not be sung orally by the women in Mantuo Villa?

Naturally, the lyrics reached the singer's mouth.

Things like word cards were originally used for playing and singing.

As for Mantuo Villa, a place as high-end, elegant, low-key, luxurious and connotative, how could it not have an orchestra? How could it not have singers and dancers?

Of course, at the wedding banquet on February 2nd, Li Qingluo asked her musicians and singers to play and sing Sapphire Case, which was definitely a show off.

Look at the son-in-law chosen by my daughter. Is he an ordinary person? Let’s not talk about Wen Ke’s ability to stabilize the country and his military ability to rule the country. Just talking about his ability to write lyrics, he has already surpassed Liu Sanbian!

What? Are there still people who are dissatisfied? Think Chen Ya is not as good as Liu Yong? That’s easy, let’s find an expert to judge!

"Sister Chaoyun, please go out of your way to invite Bachelor Su to come and comment on the lyrics."

In the hall of the inner house, Li Qingluo ignored the rules and made an exception to invite Su Dongpo, who was recognized as the number one poet in this dynasty to comment on her son-in-law.

Su Shi didn't know what was going on at home, and was confused in the harsh spring cold. He listened to a libretto and drank a glass of fine wine. He only felt that the good words of wine are better, and the wine is richer and more meaningful.

Suddenly, a group of women came from the flower path, and the first one was his concubine Wang Chaoyun.

"Ms. Wang, Mrs. Wang has invited you to come in to judge the lyrics and music."

Behind Wang Chaoyun, a group of maids from Mantuo Villa also came to Wanfu and said, "Madam, I would like to invite Bachelor Su to come in and give a speech."

Su Shi was overjoyed and stood up suddenly, laughing loudly and saying: "I have exactly what I meant!"

Chen Ya felt a little helpless when he saw this. Li Qingluo, a prodigal old lady, what is she showing off? Now Su Dongpo was really satisfied.

Chen Ya's prediction was true. As soon as Su Shi entered the banquet venue in the inner house, he was immediately stunned by the orioles and swallows in the hall.

Su Shi is not comparable to Liu Yong, the popular scholar who hangs out in the flower streets and Liuxiangs. Su Shi has broadened his horizons.

Every time the royal family worships heaven and earth and major festivals, the courtiers and concubines in the imperial court will participate together, and they will have the opportunity to see the three thousand beauties.

But at this moment, Su Shi felt that in this hall, the beauty of Li Qingluo sitting at the main seat and the group of women sitting next to the main seat were far better than the beauty of the palace!

Not to mention the wife and concubines in the family. The two women in the family were simply compared to the ground by these women.

In the past, Su Shi had always been proud of his wives and concubines, for no other reason than that they were beautiful and talented. But today, he suddenly felt inferior.

Whose wife and daughter are these? How could they be so beautiful?

This is unscientific! You must know that the beauties in the imperial palace are selected by the whole country. Even if beauties have been produced in Suzhou and Hangzhou since ancient times, they should not be compared with the beauties of the country in the imperial palace.

No! No! It must be that my eyes are blurred because of old age. Or maybe I drank too much wine and my mind was intoxicated.

In fact, we can't blame Su Shi for being lost and confused. It's actually because the women Chen Ya accepted were of high quality.

Can there be a woman who is so lost that she can be obsessed with Duan Zhengchun? Can a daughter born from such a woman and the Duan family’s mistress not be beautiful?

What's more, even Chen Ya himself doesn't know that his reincarnation magic has another wonderful effect, which is to nourish a woman's appearance.

As long as a woman loves Chen Ya often, she will become more and more beautiful.

Furthermore, since taking in A'Zhu, Chen Ya would often discuss the art of disguise with A'Zhu.

Chen Ya's focus is not to plagiarize by becoming someone else. What does he want? But rather how to make his woman more beautiful through makeup.

The results that he and his wife researched were immediately tried on other wives and concubines, and the results were immediate.

She has a good foundation, can beautify, and knows how to put on makeup. When these conditions are combined, it is not surprising that Chen Ya's wives and concubines are better in beauty than the emperor's concubines.

But how did Su Shi know this? Unexpectedly, he was frightened by a group of extremely young beauties and was stunned on the spot.

Li Qingluo and other sisters have become accustomed to this. Not to mention the old man Su Shi, which of the female guests who came here before was not shaken by his sisters to the point where they could not recover for a long time?

Li Qingluo very tolerantly gave Su Shi some buffering time before getting up. After saying her welcome speech, she got straight to the point.

"The New Year's Eve poem just now was written by my son-in-law. If there are any flaws in the writing and calligraphy, please ask Academician Xiao Su to correct it."

What?

Su Dongpo was shocked again.

This poem is actually the work of Chen Ya? Then isn’t this Chen Ya’s talent incredible?

Li Qingluo was right. The more expert he is, the more he can see the beauty and height of this poem.

As one of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties summarized by later generations, Su Shi's literary attainments were naturally extremely profound, especially in poetry. He said that he was second, and no one dared to say that he was first.

But at this moment, Su Shi made an astonishing comment, "My son-in-law is extremely talented and knowledgeable, and his lyrics are astonishing in the past and today! Su can't match them."

There is definitely something in Su Dongpo's words, but isn't this society just about people carrying people in sedan chairs?

Since I know that Li Qingluo wants to show off her son-in-law, since I also want to curry favor with Li Qingluo, since I must flatter Li Qingluo...

So why not slap the flattery louder?

As expected, Li Qingluo laughed so hard that her branches trembled with laughter, and she kept being humble, "I don't dare to think that Su Xianggong commented like this. This kid Chen Ya has a lot of literary talent in his belly, but he can't deserve Su Xianggong's ridiculous praise."

When he said this, his smile suddenly faded, he looked around and said, "Where is Chen Ya? I asked him to entertain Academician Xiao Su, but now that Academician Xiao Su is here, why is he missing? Why don't you call him back quickly?
