Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 179 The So-called Poetry Society

Poetry meeting in March and garden tour in April.

The little girl's eyes flickered slightly, she really didn't know much about this.

So she withdrew her hand, and the ball of evil spirit that was originally the size of a fist dissipated immediately, Mu Xici took advantage of the situation and brushed off her sleeve: "Speak."

"Okay." Mo Junli responded, heaving a sigh of relief, he knew that he had made the right bet, and the little national teacher really didn't know much about these things.

Thinking about it, when she returned to Beijing in her previous life, the border of Qianping was already in turmoil, and the Mu family and his son died in battle one after another. Baifang Garden?
I'm afraid they are all worried, worrying about their own life!

The young man pursed his lips, smiled softly, then pretended to clear his throat, and opened his mouth slowly: "The Peach Blossom Poetry Festival on March [-] is an annual spring festival in central Beijing..."

"Stop." Mu Xici frowned, "Peach Blossom Poetry Club? Why doesn't that name sound right?"

Poetry is not poetry, she didn't see it, she listened to it, it was more like a group of young men and women, mixing together to seek marriage, just like Shang Yuan's marriage tree asking for a lottery.

"Yes, it's basically what you think." Mo Junli nodded, "At that time, young masters and ladies who have reached the age of ten and have not yet married will gather together to recite poems, enjoy flowers and drink."

"If the age is right, most of them will take the opportunity to see if there is any candidate they like among the participants; if they are younger, they will try their best to win a name."

At this point, the young man narrowed his eyes and smirked lightly: "Mu Shiyan and Xiao Miaotong from the Xiao Mansion were at this meeting back then. They shocked everyone with their poetry and became famous in one fell swoop."

"It is said that Xiao Miaotong is talented, I am still willing to believe it; but if it is said that Mu Shiyan, forget it, it is probably my good aunt who paved the way for her in advance." Mu Xici smiled coldly, "Otherwise, Just her bad brain."

"Speaking of which, what does this kind of poetry have to do with me? I don't want to seek marriage, nor do I want to be famous for a beauty. If the invitation really enters Fulanxuan, I will just push it away."

The little girl said and nodded the table: "Why do you tell me this?"

"That's right, in the poetry meeting where Mu Shiyan became famous, Xiao Shuhua did polish her poems several times in advance." Mo Junli smiled with curved eyes, his expression was quite meaningful.

"It's just that Master Guoshi, today is different from the past, this year's Peach Blossom Poetry Festival, you must go."

Mu Xici said calmly, "How do you say?"

"There will be a spring exam this year." Mo Jun rubbed his cheeks, "And, on the first day of March, the exam will be announced."

"You mean, this year's poetry fair will invite Gongsheng students who stand out from the competition." Mu Xici thought for a while, "How many Gongsheng students will be invited to the poetry fair? Besides that, what else?"

She didn't believe that just inviting Gongsheng could make Mo Junli say "I must go".

"The top [-] on the list are all within the scope of invitations. If the rest want to go, they can submit their name cards in advance." The young man raised his eyebrows lightly, "Besides, this year's poetry meeting is the turn of Xiaofu to host it." .”

The list of the Qianping Palace Examination is different from that of the General Examination. The top ten on the list of the General Examination are all likely to be promoted to the first class, and will be awarded the Jinshi and rank;

First-class and second-class are the most powerful new forces in the court during scientific research, and they are also the targets of competition.

"And as far as I know, the young master from Anping Hou's Mansion will also be present this time."

"The young master of the Marquis of Anping... isn't that man already engaged?" Mu Xici smacked his lips. If I remember correctly, that person is Zhu Sheng's eldest grandson. in-laws.

"It's just an engagement, not a marriage." Mo Junli took a sip from his teacup, "Anyway, he is used to being shameless in the Anping Marquis."

That Zhu Sheng has been a full-fledged hooligan since he was a child, and he is the group who can force his widowed sister-in-law to commit adultery with him in his teens.

——What kind of face does a hooligan want?

"Tsk." Mu Xici couldn't help clapping her hands repeatedly, "Beautiful."

This year's Peach Blossom Poetry Conference is held by the Xiao Mansion. As the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family, Xiao Shuhua naturally has thousands of ways to forcibly add her name to the list. Even if she wants to refuse, she can directly move out her elders. Her identity oppressed her.

Gan Ping has always advocated filial piety, even if she doesn't like Xiao Shuhua anymore, as long as she and her second uncle never get divorced, she has to respect her as "Second Aunt".

At that time, if she moves out of her elder status...

Oh, then she probably hopes that she will refuse, so that she can find sufficient reasons to say that she is disrespectful and unfilial.

The little girl pulled the corners of her lips and pulled out an extremely mocking smile. Originally, she didn't want to get involved in this matter, but now this poem will not only involve the Spring Examination, but also the Xiao Mansion and Anping Hou Mansion...

Then she couldn't stand it.

Mu Xici covered her lips and yawned lazily: "The poetry fair, are you going too?"

"Of course I'm going." Mo Jun's eyes twitched, "This year's poetry meeting is very lively, and I don't want to miss the good show."

"That's right." Mu Xici nodded, "Continue talking, what happened to the garden party in April."

"Baifang Garden, it's easy to say, once every three years, after the announcement of the palace examination." Mo Junli said, "First, let's celebrate for the Jinshi in the list; second, let's give it to the right age...cough."

Above the court, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests, and among these many relationships, only the interests of in-laws are integrated, so everything that involves interests will inevitably involve marriage.

The boy scratched his head a little irritably. He hated this kind of behavior of treating children as goods. It reminded him of the decorations in the harem in his previous life. Although he didn't like them, he felt sorry for them.

He couldn't figure out why the rise and fall of a family was forcibly tied to a few women. At that time, he always felt extremely disgusted when he saw the frightening and expectant smiles on their faces.

Rigid and false, those women have long lost their own thinking, and have become puppets in the hands of the so-called family members——

He looked uncomfortable, but he couldn't forcefully change his mind.

"However, most of the garden parties are instigated by the old man and organized by the clan. Although no palace has been decided on this year, I guess it should be King Jin."

"Well, then this should not be rejected." Mu Xici responded.

The situation in their Duke's Mansion is special. Elder Sister's health is not good and she can't bear it. In the past, Mu Shiyan attended similar occasions on her behalf, but now that she has returned to Beijing, she naturally has to support the Duke's mansion. face.

"Okay, I'm clear about this, do you have anything else to tell me?" The little girl stood up and stretched her arms and legs, she was about to stiffen from sitting.

"No more." Mo Junli smiled and got up, "Go, I'll show you around my residence."

"Okay." Mu Xici nodded her chin slightly. This is the second time she has come to the Prince's Mansion, and she did not take a closer look when she came last time. She is indeed very interested in the scenery here.

Mo Junli was in a good mood at this meeting, the two walked out of the main hall talking and laughing, the boy was just about to lead the little girl around the mansion, when he heard an earth-shattering "Brother" from far behind him.

He suddenly changed his face.

　Let the little princess out to play

　　I found out that the spring exam is very long, but it is indeed from February to April

　　It’s impossible to just skip two months and do nothing, there are a lot of small moves in the early stage

　　But after the spring test, you can jump, and the basic situation is laid out

　　So, the ancients were really miserable.
