I don't know the breeze

Man Bukui handed me a picture of the Grand Master's Mansion, and I discussed it with him. When the time comes, I will do it inside, and he will respond outside.

Man Bukui said: "There were so many dignitaries present that day, you can also bring some other things here, anyway, the five-color stone is yours, so you have to give me some oil and water."

I said, "Why don't I go to the courtyard of the Grand Master's Mansion and pick up some stones for you?"

Just after noon, Ji Muyuan left the mansion to socialize, and Ji Yicang and I set off in the evening.I tidied up in the house, opened the door and came out to see him waiting for me on the porch.Seeing me coming out, Ji Yicang paused and his eyes lit up slightly.

"You're very well dressed."

I lowered my head and looked at myself. I was wearing an autumn-colored thin robe with wide sleeves, and a pair of soft-soled boots with silver thread on my feet. My head was heavier than usual, because of the beaded topaz crown.The Ji Mansion has treated me well all these years, choosing the best for food and clothing, but I don't care about these things, it's not as comfortable as my plain robe after wearing it, so I often pile it up for use.This outfit was estimated not to be too casual today, so I searched it from everywhere in the room temporarily.

So I leaned against the door and asked with a smile, "How is it? Is it worth watching?"

Ji Yicang nodded and asked, "Why is there no Peiyu?"

I said, "I'm not used to wearing those."

Ji Yicang smiled and said: "Since you lost the lotus jade pendant your mother gave you when you were a child, you don't wear it very much." Then he suddenly remembered something and said sadly: "Chengxue...she also has a dress of this color. It's a pity...she hasn't seen me much recently."

I raised my eyebrows when I heard the words, and said with a half-smile: "It's my fault. I picked such a dress, which made Mr. Ji think about others. If it's not right, I'll just change it." Pretending to close the door and go back to the house, Ji Yicang hurriedly came over to hold me back and said, "I said it casually, but you take it seriously. It's just a casual sigh of a frustrated man. Hurry up, it won't be good if you're late." He said Then, he stretched out his hand to brush a few strands of hair on my forehead, and pulled me out of the yard.

When I arrived at Nanfu, I saw the bustling cars and horses in front of the gate, which was really spectacular.I followed Ji Yicang and reported my name to the servant boy in front of the door before I was allowed to enter.

After passing the vertical flower gate in the mansion, you can see carved wooden railings, long corridors and pavilions, which are very rich and magnificent.Compared with it, Ji Mansion is like a hut.

Ji Yicang said to me: "The invited children of the aristocratic families are having tea in the back hall. We should go there too. The White Deer can't be seen until the emperor comes at night."

I said, "Go around with them. I don't like to see those people, so I won't go there. I think there are many places to see in this garden. I'll take a stroll here. When the time comes, just call me."

Ji Yicang warned me a few more words before leaving.

I walked casually to a quiet place in the garden.When the autumn wind comes and the flowers wither, only the chrysanthemums are proud of frost.A small patch of chrysanthemums in front of me refreshed my mind a bit, so I told the attendant behind me to stay here for now, and walked over by myself.

The sky is getting late, the wind is getting cooler, the grass in the garden is thin, and only the pines and cypresses are left.I sat on the rock on the rockery for a while, and felt sleepy for a while, and fell asleep unconsciously.When I woke up, a pale moon came out of the night, and a faint voice called me.I hurriedly packed up my clothes and walked out from the rockery.

Ji Yicang scolded, "Where did you go when you said you didn't listen?"

I smiled without answering and urged him to leave quickly.Ji Yicang led me through the corridor to the front hall.Many people were already here at that time.Ji Yicang took me to an inconspicuous place and stood there, silent.

In the courtyard, there was a square cage about two people high covered with a black cloth, and there was no sound.

I whispered, "I don't know when the emperor will come?"

Ji Yicang said, "Soon."

Not long after, a noise was heard outside the court.Someone sang in a high-pitched voice: "Your Majesty is here—" everyone in the court knelt down in unison.Ji Yicang and I also knelt together.I bowed my head and silently listened to their shouts of long live.

There was another burst of talking and laughing, and only one person laughed and said: "Stop kneeling, get flat."

Everyone thanked me, and I stood up and took a step back quietly.

The adults talked and laughed with the emperor again, just saying compliments. I have no interest, and I haven't listened carefully.Waiting for Taishi Nan to say "Please look at the auspicious beast, Your Majesty" before he raised his head, his eyes fixed on it.

Perhaps the moonlight is too bright today, I can see how much fluorescence is on the white deer, and it looks like a fairy beast from a distance.On the pair of horns that look like Qiongzhi, there is indeed a five-color stone inlaid.

The emperor praised it, and all the ministers also said something like "this is a sign of auspiciousness shown by the heavens", and those who stood by me would also shout long live.

After they finished speaking, the emperor glanced at us and said with a smile: "I see that many young talents from various prefectures have come today. Such a peaceful scene, if there are no poems and prose, it will be boring; how about this, you With this white deer as the title, one person writes a poem, whoever writes well will be rewarded."

The ministers only thought that the emperor was happy, and they wanted to take this opportunity to impress their children in front of Sheng Jia, and praised him one after another.Ji Muyuan didn't say anything, but just glanced at me.

The emperor then turned sideways to a person wearing a purple robe with a crane pattern and asked with a smile: "What does the prime minister think? When it comes to poetry and poetry, no one in the court can compare to you."

Ji Yicang whispered in my ear, "This is the current prime minister, Xiao Hanqing."

Prime Minister Xiao first cupped his hands and said "I dare not be a minister", the emperor smiled and helped him up.Prime Minister Xiao said: "I think it's better to ask someone to fetch a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and put the written poems in a box for your majesty to read; in this way, one is fair and just, and the other is to test their pen and ink skills."

The emperor nodded in praise and said: "Just do as the prime minister said." Nan Taishi hurriedly sent someone to fetch the four treasures of the study, and distributed them to everyone present one by one.I couldn't stop writing, so I dealt with it casually.

When everyone present has completed it, put it in a box and present it to the emperor.He read them one by one, and finally picked out one and said: "I think this one is the best. Especially this sentence 'clear and white deer dyed, shining like brilliance', it is definitely the best among them."

Prime Minister Xiao said: "Your Majesty has already made a decision. Who wrote this poem with the line 'clear emptiness stains the white deer, and the glistening like brilliance'?"

I was stunned when I heard that "clear and white deer dyed, shining like brilliance", and did not respond.When Prime Minister Xiao saw that no one answered, he asked again.I knew I couldn't dodge it, so I pushed a young man beside me out.

The young master staggered a few steps, then hurriedly knelt down in the court.The emperor smiled and said, "Who am I? It turns out to be Young Master Zhong. With your son's talent, Shang Shu is really good at teaching his son."

A man in the official uniform of the official book in the crowd expressed panic a few times, and the emperor waved him back, and then said: "Master Zhong, this poem is very well written, and tell me why you wrote it."

The son surnamed Zhong hesitated a few times, but couldn't speak.I sighed inwardly.If you are really a fool, if you get the opportunity, you can just say a few nonsense!Make me work so hard!

The emperor asked with a half-smile, "What's wrong with Mr. Zhong? You forgot the poem you just wrote?"

The kid lay on the ground and trembled, "I... poetry..."

The emperor collected his expression and said, "Is this poem really written by you?"

Mr. Zhong had time to speak in the future, Taishi Nan said: "It's my fault, so many people came today, but they chose a small courtyard. You said Mr. Zhong didn't pay attention to your steps, and someone squeezed you out."

The ministers laughed for a while, and the emperor's expression softened.I can't help but sigh, the fox is still old and tricky.
