Whoosh--
As Lin Xuan's words fell, the surrounding scholars and beauties were all stunned, and their small mouths widened.
Even Xu Hui, who was behind the barrier, was stunned. She could not help but raise her willow-like eyebrows.
Then, she shook her head and felt that Lin Xuan was a little too arrogant.
In the past, Cao Zhi did not have any time to think. He was already a heavenly being when he composed a poem within seven steps, and it was widely circulated as a classic in later generations.
Now that Lin Xuan wanted to complete a poem in four steps, could this still be called not being arrogant?
Arrogant! Too arrogant!
For a moment, everyone surrounded him. Even passers-by who knew the news rushed over, wanting to see how this Lin Xuan could complete a poem in four steps!
Lin Xuan stood in the middle of the temple with his hands behind his back.
Then, he began to walk.
"Moonlight in front of the bed."
"Suspected to be frost on the ground."
"Look up at the moon."
"I bow my head and miss my hometown."
He took four steps in one go without even panting or thinking!
In an instant, the surroundings were deathly silent. Everyone was dumbfounded.
This... Was it over just like that?
Even Xu Hui, who was behind the barrier, was stunned. She was originally prepared to listen, but before her butt could even warm up, Lin Xuan was finished?
"What kind of bullshit poem is this?"
"The language is shallow, without any embellishment, and the content is tasteless.”
"It's simply a lie. In that case, I can go too.”
A moment later, the crowd exploded, but most of them were very excited and directly criticized Lin Xuan's poem.
This made Lin Xuan want to laugh.
This was because this was the masterpiece of the future immortal poet Li Bai, Tranquil Night Meditation. How could it be regarded as trash by these people?
If Li Bai found out, would he be reincarnated in advance and cut off the heads of these people?
"What do you think, Xu Jiaren?"
Then, Lin Xuan turned around and asked Xu Hui behind the barrier.
If even you think that the Immortal Poet's masterpiece is trash, then pretend that I, Lin, never said anything.
"Young Master's poem…"
For a moment, Xu Hui was also in a difficult position. She was surprised by Lin Xuan's speed of writing poems, but this poem did look boring on the surface, but she kept feeling that something was wrong.
It was just that she hadn't noticed it yet.
"This poem will be sung through the ages!"
At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded from afar.
Immediately, a commotion broke out. Many scholars and beauties stepped back with respect on their faces.
"Elder He is here."
Lin Xuan looked over. It was an old man with a walking stick and a servant beside him.
"Elder He!"
At the same time, Xu Hui, who was behind the barrier, also stood up and said respectfully. He was very respectful.
This made Lin Xuan even more curious. However, since this old man could conclude that the poem he wrote was a masterpiece, then he must have true talent.
He soon learned of this person's identity through the discussions of the people around him.
He had been an official for two dynasties. The highest official was a fifth-grade official. He was also a scholar and a famous poet, very famous in Chang 'an.
"Young man, did you really do this?”
Elder He slowly walked over with the help of his errand boy, his murky eyes glowing.
"I'm not talented, I'm your humble servant."
Lin Xuan immediately replied without blushing or jumping. Immortal poet, oh immortal poet, in any case, you have not been born yet. I'll borrow your masterpiece to act tough first.
"Genius! What a genius!"
"This old man has seen countless people in my life, but I have never seen a young man as talented as you.”
Elder He exclaimed in excitement.
"Elder He, you're not wrong, are you?”
"This poem works too?"
However, this caused the surrounding scholars to be puzzled. Someone immediately asked, wondering if Old He was confused.
"You guys know nothing!"
However, Elder He retorted with an agitated expression, scolding them profusely.
Xu Hui, who was behind the barrier, was also stunned. Then, she hurriedly asked.
"May I ask Elder He if this poem has an extraordinary meaning?”
"You have some talent, but it's natural that I can't tell.”
Elder He looked at Xu Hui and smiled.
"This poem seems tasteless and monotonous, fresh and simple, but it was recited without a trace.”
"Although he didn't say it clearly on the surface, it actually contained the feeling of missing his hometown.”
"It seems that this young master has already reached the realm of not wanting to work but not wanting to work!”
Old He sighed in the end and looked at Lin Xuan again. The worship and respect on his face could not be hidden.
This shocked everyone even more.
Xu Hui also came to her senses and finally understood the essence of this poem. She smiled bitterly and knew that she had lost.
For a moment, with Elder He's praise, Lin Xuan's reputation soared again!
......
On the bluestone bridge.
Lin Xuan rejected Elder He's invitation and walked out of the temple with Xu Hui.
This was also the first time he had seen her true appearance. She was indeed extremely talented and had a shocking appearance. No wonder Li Er had immediately accepted her as a talent after learning about it.
However, Li Er was embarrassed.
Your future Consort Xu Xian, I, Lin Xuan, will definitely poach her.
