"Mei Ji, you're good."
Su Ming praised in his heart.
Although he had seen countless concubines in the Battle of Voices in his previous life, the woman in front of him had revealed her charm to the fullest.
"Thank you for coming to Mei Ji's poetry gathering.”
"I made you wait for so long. Mei Ji should drink a cup as punishment. Please forgive me.”
Mei Ji poured herself a glass of wine and drank it. Her delicate face blushed.
"Miss Mei Ji, you're too kind. If we can meet Mei Ji, I think we're willing to wait for a long time.”
"Lady Mei Ji is too polite."
"Lady Mei Ji is really magnanimous!"
“......”
Everyone rushed to flatter him, revealing his potential as a bootlicker.
The people who could come here were either rich or noble. However, in front of Mei Ji, they still lowered their status to please her. It was obvious what they were trying to do.
However, as one of the Four Courtesan Belles, Mei Ji had seen all kinds of rich people.
If money could make her sleep with him, she would have been smashed into bed by money long ago.
As a brothel run by an official, no one dared to force their way in.
Hunger marketing worked wonders no matter where it was placed.
The more she couldn't get it, the more people would flock to her, thinking that she would be an exception and be able to suppress other men and get the beauty.
"Lady Mei Ji, according to the news in the city, you're looking for the one you like. I wonder if you have anyone in Great Peace City?”
Someone in the crowd suddenly said.
The moment he said that, the entire noisy courtyard instantly fell silent.
Everybody's eyes fell on Mei Ji.
Su Ming sensed that someone was watching him. He could not help but look in the same direction and met Chen Beijiang's gaze.
Chen Beijiang's face turned red as he looked elsewhere.
Chen Beijiang did not expect to meet Su Ming here.
On the other hand, the corners of Su Ming's lips could not help but twitch. Chen Beijiang's son was about three years younger than him.
His predecessor had been under Chen Beijiang's care all these years and often went to Chen Beijiang's house to eat.
Then what happened at the Education Bureau today was indeed a tragedy.
Mei Ji shook her head, covering her mouth as she smiled."If there's someone suitable, Mei Ji will ask them to stay and have a chat in her room."
"Since Miss Mei Ji is holding this poetry contest, we're free. Why don't we give it a try?”
Someone in the crowd shouted.
He could try his luck by spending fifty taels.
When he said this, 90% of the people in the crowd turned black.
Dafeng ruled the country with martial arts. It was fine for them to go into battle to kill the enemy, but wouldn't it be difficult for them to write poems?
"Then let's pair up." Mei Ji smiled.
She knew very well that most of the people present were uncultured people. It was undoubtedly difficult for them to write a poem.
As for pairs, they could also make them retreat in the face of difficulties.
"Lady Mei Ji, please write the first half." Someone urged.
Mei Ji smiled at the others."Autumn is coming, so let's use autumn as the first half of the couplet.”
"Mid-Autumn Festival, when the moon is full, in the middle of autumn."
When everyone heard this, they could not help but ponder this sentence in their minds.
"This is a reduplicated couplet."
"Everyone, don't randomly match it. This couplet is the same no matter how you read it.”
In an instant, more than half of them rolled their eyes.
It looked like a nine-word couplet, but it was enough to make people pull out their hair.
"Reduplicated couplet, interesting."
Su Ming mumbled softly, and he could not help but fall into deep thought.
Mei Ji smiled and didn't say anything as she looked at these people frowning.
She had experienced this many times.
There were often people who felt that they were different, but in the end, they could only retreat.
The Education Bureau was one of the four most popular courtesans in Great Peace City.
However, the four of them were also competing everywhere, wanting to suppress the other three.
In terms of beauty, the four of them competed with each other.
The only thing that could compete was reputation.
At this time, who could obtain a poem that could be passed down to the world and then bind it with their own name?
Then the other three Courtesan Belle would be trampled under their feet!
Unfortunately, Dafeng ruled the country with martial arts. There were not many people who were good at reading, and poetry was reduced to a side issue that was not valued.
The Great Tang ruled the country with literature, and the world was filled with scholars. This made poetry popular, and there were the Four Great Beauties.
Even though a thousand years had passed, the reputation of the Four Courtesan Belles was still well known to the world.
One could imagine how important a well-known poem was to them.
Their faces would age, but their poems would not. A catchy poem could even be passed down for thousands of years.
In their hearts, they also yearned to meet such a scholar and create a story that everyone envied.
Unfortunately, Dafeng's policy of governing the country made it difficult to find a scholar even if they carried a lantern.
At this moment, a thin man with a refined face stood out from the crowd.
Mei Ji was startled. She couldn't help but look over.
That person met everyone's gaze and slowly read,"Four taels of pork belly for five taels of pork belly."
"Hiss ~"
"You really got it right?"
"Impressive."
"This guy seems to be Chief Wang's son, Wang Chinese?”
"No wonder Chief Wang has so many books at home. With his guidance, it makes sense that Wang Chinese can match couplets.”
"The new waves push on the previous waves!"
“......”
The courtyard was instantly filled with praises from the crowd.
Wang Chinese was also full of smiles and excitement.
If he could spend the night in this Snow Plum Garden, then his deeds would spread throughout Great Peace City tomorrow.
Gifted scholars and beautiful women were always the talk of the town.
Moreover, Mei Ji was one of the Four Courtesan Belles. How happy would it be to have a night with her?
Wang Chinese leaned back strategically and welcomed everyone's attention.
Was there anyone watching?
He could just let her know in the comments section.
Can those who have flowers and comments vote for me?
The data for the new book is very, very important. I'll leave it to everyone.
