The Thousand Flowers Garden was truly worthy of being called the Thousand Flowers Garden. The moment one stepped into the garden, one would enter a fairyland. The fragrance of the flowers assailed one's nose and made one's heart and mind concentrate. Not only did the fragrance of the flowers not seem overly disturbing, but it also revealed a feeling of clearing one's heart. It had to be said that the palace servants who took care of the flowers were really attentive. They could make each flower match the other colors of the flowers without excessive benefits. What an amazing skill!
Some of the flowers in the Thousand Gardens were potted plants, some were directly standing trees, some were placed on high shelves, and some were sleeping by the shallow river pond. Further in, they would find a small man-made river. On both sides of the river were drooping flower trees. From afar, it looked like a small cave. This is my favorite type. It's open and quiet. The colors aren't strong, and the fragrance isn't strong. I stepped forward and took a look. It turned out to be a locust flower. There were still more buds in the flowers now, but the taste was still unique.
I didn't dare to delay, so I brought Jasmine to the center of the Ten Thousand Gardens.
After walking for a long time, they finally arrived at the peony corridor in the middle. Sitting in the middle of the corridor were not only the Empress and the other concubines, but also Gu Muyang and a few figures who looked like men. I continued to walk forward and realized that it was actually An Jiuchong, Lu Zizan, Yang Haoran, and Xiao Mo. An Jiuchong no longer had eye bags under his eyes. Instead, he was fiddling with a fan in his hand. Lu Zizan still had a smiling face that had not changed for ten thousand years. At this moment, he was handing a handkerchief to a woman in green beside him. The two of them looked exceptionally loving. I knew that woman was my good sister, Hua Qingcheng. Yang Haoran and Xiao Mo quarreled as usual.
Gu Mu Yang was sitting in the middle. On his left were the officials like An Jiuchong, and on his right were the concubines like the Empress.
I hurriedly walked to the center of the hall and greeted him. Gu Mu Yang waved his hand and gave me a seat. The seat is the third highest from the right, second only to the Empress and Imperial Consort Qin. I sat down and found that I was facing Xiao Mo. Xiao Mo was Lu Zizan's trusted aide. He was promoted by Lu Zizan and was basically on the same side as Lu Zizan. I watched Xiao Mo and Yang Haoran secretly compare, while Lu Zizan and his wife showed off their love. She felt even more bored and frustrated.
At this time, Li Xiqin, who was sitting on my left, began to talk to me. I heard the emperor say that sister has read a lot of books. This time, I have to let sister take a good look! I reached out and picked up one of the pastries on the table, then looked back at Li Xiqin and said,'How dare I? The emperor laughed at me then, sister, don't take it seriously! Who didn't know how well her sister had written her Qingyun Ci back then? If she was a talented girl, she should be called an elder sister.”When Li Xiqin heard my words, she quickly reached out to cover her smile. She smiled and said to me,'Sister, you're flattering me. I'm just writing a song. It's not a big deal.' If we were to talk about talented women, then that would depend on our Empress. The Empress had been educated and reasonable since she was young, and her poetry and songs were not bad at all! Especially that hand of calligraphy, which had caused the faces of many literati and poets to blush! 'After saying that, she turned around and politely nodded at the Empress to express her admiration.
I nodded to the Empress in agreement.
At this time, the Empress was a little happy. After all, her literature was not fake. She turned around and said to the two of us,'Sister, you're too polite. That was many years ago. If you want to be ranked first, it will depend on today.'”Afterwards, the Empress turned around and said to Gu Mu Yang,'Since all the sisters and ministers are here, why don't you hold a flower poem competition to liven up your mood? Gu Muyang nodded and said,"Very well, then this competition will be hosted by the Empress. I will just sit and watch the excitement as I prepare the prizes."”" Then do all the ministers want to participate? " The Empress asked obediently.
'Forget about them! Either they were proficient in reciting poems backwards or they were like strangers who never met. It was too unfair to win, and too embarrassing to lose. However, the Prime Minister's wife was a talented woman of the new generation, so he would let her participate.”Gu Muyang looked at Hua Qingcheng after he finished speaking. Hua Qingcheng immediately stood up to receive the order.
Then the Empress stood up and said,"Okay, then ChenQie will tell you the rules now."”Gu Muyang nodded in agreement.
The empress was wearing an orange robe with a pair of embroidered phoenix patterns. She stood up and prepared to speak the rules with dignity. All the concubines below the stage stood up and listened with their heads lowered.
After that, the Empress began to say,'Today, all the sisters have come to the Ten Thousand Gardens to admire the flowers. In order to stay in the elegant mood, they had specially prepared a flower poem competition. In a while, there would be thousands of dancers wearing all kinds of flowers or musicians singing. As long as you girls guess what flower it is and answer with a poem with this flower, you will win one point. Each game can only have two people to answer, so you girls have to react quickly. At the end of the game, the emperor will reward the top three. Do you understand? As soon as the Empress finished speaking, a group of concubines answered in unison,"ChenQie understands." Although the commotion was not huge, it was enough to inspire people.
Then, the Empress smiled with satisfaction and clapped her hands twice before saying in high spirits,'The flower guessing and poem competition begins now! '#Insight Review Passed: Daguan Time:1024201810:49AM
