The head of urban peach blossom

Chapter 1146
A few days later, under the arrangement of Yan Zheng, the Poetry and Painting Club held a gathering.

The venue for this gathering is located in the eastern outskirts of the capital, a villa called "Wangyue Pavilion".

Wangyue Pavilion covers an area of ​​more than [-] mu. It is a leisure and entertainment place built by Qin Donglai, the largest businessman in the capital, with a lot of money.

Wangyue Pavilion is built near the water, and the water is introduced into the villa to form a living lake.

Even, a lot of soil and rocks were transported from various places, and many rockeries were piled up in the villa.These artificial mountains are not like the artificial mountains in ordinary gardens. The highest ones are almost tens of meters, almost equivalent to real mountains.

The flowers, trees, buildings, etc. in the villa also hired more than a hundred skilled craftsmen and took ten years to complete.

It is no exaggeration to say that although the entire villa is not as luxurious as the palace, it is definitely better than the palace in terms of elegance.

In addition, its location is in the suburbs, and it can be reached only a dozen miles out of the city.Therefore, many dignitaries in Beijing, young ladies and wives, like to live in the villa for a few days when they have nothing to do.

It is precisely because of the environment here that Yan Zheng also likes to gather here.

This time, more than thirty people were invited to the party.Of course, how can there be beauties and wine in such a party?

Good wine, sent by someone.As for the beauties, they choose some oirans from major brothels, or special geisha come to add to the fun.

Zi Yan was one of the invited oirans, and this was Hong Sheng's suggestion.

Yan Zheng knew that Hong Sheng had always been obsessed with Ziyan, so he was naturally happy to be a favor.

In fact, this gathering was also because Hong Sheng talked about Hua Xiaolou in front of Yan Zheng, saying that Hua Xiaolou was brilliant in writing and a rare talent.

Out of curiosity, Yan Zheng wanted to see it with his own eyes, so he organized this gathering impromptu.

Although the expenses were not small, Yanzheng was not alone in paying the expenses.Almost half of the people he invited were young masters with rich families, and if everyone shared a little, it was nothing more than a drizzle for them.

A gazebo in the villa.

Several sons and sisters were sitting together, discussing the gathering.

"I heard that Mr. Yan specially organized this party for a guy named Hua Xiaolou?"

"That's right, I've heard others say that too."

"It is said that this guy came from the south, and somehow he met Hong Sheng, and then Hong Sheng strongly recommended him to Mr. Yan..."

"Blowing so hard, when the time comes, I will hold my hands and see if this guy is a liar."

"That's right, that's right, then we can come up with some problems, so that guy can't step down..."

In fact, the psychology of these people is one of disdain and the other of jealousy.

Compared with those ignorant dandies, they have some literary talents, otherwise Yan Zheng would not make friends with them.

Because although Yan Zheng can be regarded as a dude, he looks down on those dudes who only know how to play with dogs and play with birds, but who don't know a lot of characters.

In his words, dandies are divided into three, six, or nine grades, and if they can't recite poems and compose Fu, they are not in the same class.

Therefore, under his influence, there are quite a few sons and gentlemen who study poetry and books...

On the other side, Hong Sheng brought Hua Xiaolou to Wangyue Pavilion.And Hua Xiaolou went through a lot of twists and turns, and finally took a step forward, and met Guojiu Yanzheng.

As long as you have a good relationship with Yan Zheng, then you will have the opportunity to use this guy to meet the queen.

"In Xiahuaxiaolou, I have looked up to my uncle Xiaoguo for a long time, but he is a kind-hearted person. When I saw him today, his reputation really lived up to his reputation."

When they met, Hua Xiaolou first put on a tall hat.

There must be few people who don't like high hats.

"Hahaha, Brother Xiaolou, you are welcome. It is amazing to hear Hong Sheng recite the two poems you wrote. Therefore, I specially organized this party to introduce you to everyone. Communicate together."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Yan Zheng brought Hua Xiaolou to the lakeside, and met with a group of people.

"I'm here to introduce a new friend to you, his name is Hua Xiaolou, and it's his first time in the capital. Let me tell you that although brother Xiaolou is not well-known, even this young master admires his talent..."

"Hehe, Mr. Yan is polite!"

"Come on, brother Xiaolou, let's sit down and drink first."

Yan Zheng seemed very enthusiastic, pulling Hua Xiaolou to sit at the same table with Hong Sheng.At the same time, Ziyan and several other women stepped forward and began to pour wine.

"This kid has been valued by Mr. Yan since he came, why?"

"That's right, maybe it's a liar..."

The two men sitting in another place seemed quite jealous and couldn't help discussing in a low voice.

"Or, let's try him face to face to see if he really has literary talents."

"it is good!"

So, one of the young masters named Ximenxuan immediately stood up, looked at Hua Xiaolou cupped his hands, and said with a smirk: "At Ximenxuan, I heard that Mr. Yan praises Brother Hua so much, I think Brother Hua must be talented." Extraordinary, why not compose a poem on the spot to open everyone's horizons?"

"exactly!"

The guy sitting next to him cooperated: "Look, let's sit by the lake, with good wine and beauties, why don't Brother Hua take advantage of the scene and write a poem to cheer up the wine?"

For a literati, writing poetry may not be a difficult task.But it is not easy to write poems according to the occasion.

This is obviously to give Hua Xiaolou a bad impression, and to embarrass him in front of him.

Hong Sheng was afraid that Hua Xiaolou would be unhappy, so he got up quickly to smooth things over: "Brother Xiaolou has just arrived in the capital, and he has been exhausted all the way. I'm afraid he hasn't adjusted well. Why don't you sing a song casually, and there is no need to adapt to the situation."

"fine!"

As a result, Hua Xiaolou subconsciously glanced at the lake. On the lake, there were two small boats rafting on the water. His heart couldn't help but he thought of a poem.

"It's rare for everyone to have such an elegant spirit, and it will look ugly to me."

Hua Xiaolou pretended to ponder for a while, and then began to chant slowly: "Furong is dizzy and the swallows are shallow, and the late flowers are reserved for a small feast. The painting boat is red and the evening wind is clear, and the willow-colored stream is sunny and warm. The beauties are urging pear blossoms Lanterns, dancing jade waist skirt thread slowly. Don't pay silver candles to speed up the return date, I wish the setting sun will rest later."

A poem immediately includes all the pictures in front of me.

The scenery, fine wine, beauties, lake water... and the artistic conception is also extremely beautiful and amazing.

Of course, this is not a poem written by Hua Xiaolou, but by predecessors.However, this is just a world in books, how could they know the poems in the world where Hua Xiaolou lived?
"Fantastic, wonderful!"

Yan Zheng was the first to come back to his senses, and couldn't help clapping his hands and sighing.

"Brother Xiaolou, Xiaosheng is really convinced!" Hong Sheng sighed sincerely, and raised his glass, insisting on offering Hua Xiaolou a glass of wine.

But the two of Ximenxuan were a little embarrassed and surprised.

The two of them wanted Hua Xiaolou to make a fool of themselves, but unexpectedly, they made each other shine.

"Hahaha, everyone heard it. The person I like is so weak. Brother Hua, you will be my friend of Yanzheng from now on. In this capital, if anyone dares to bully you, just report my name." !"
