My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

Chapter 367 Borrowing "Qingping Diao"

At this time, Wu Zhong said, "Since he is afraid that Your Majesty will protect him, then let him do something that even Your Majesty cannot protect him from. Then report him, and Your Majesty will not be able to protect him even if he wants to."

Wu Qinghui asked: "What do you think, brother?"

"Doesn't Chang An know that he is known as the most talented scholar in the Tang Dynasty? Even Li Bai is ashamed of his poetic talent." Wu Zhong was smart for once, "Why don't we ask him to write a poem with the theme of beauty, and then use this poem to find faults in him."

"Let him write a few more poems, and you'll always find some faults. Take this poem and report it to your Majesty, saying that he offended your Majesty, isn't that enough?"

Wu Qinghui and Wu Xin felt their eyes light up at this moment, but this emotion soon subsided, and then Wu Qinghui asked: "But what if this doesn't work?"

"Don't worry, the two of us brothers will be there too. With three pairs of eyes, we will always find something to find fault with him."

Wu Qinghui's slender fingertips gently stroked her cheek. After closing her eyes and thinking deeply for a while, she said, "I will decide this matter. I will decide the rest of the plan."

......

The next day, Chang An finished his class in the Prince's Palace and prepared to go home. Although it was still a long time before the end of the get off work at noon, Li Longji allowed him to leave after the class.

He and Li Ying had just stepped out of the door of the Prince's Palace when they saw a eunuch approaching. The two looked at each other, then took a step back and turned around.

"are you ready?"

"Of course I'm ready."

Li Ying nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you. I'll go find my father now."

"it is good."

After the two finished talking, they returned to their normal state and came to the door. At this time, the eunuch was already standing at the door. When he saw Chang An coming out, he greeted him, "Greetings, Duke Kangguo."

"Whose father-in-law are you?" Although Chang An had already guessed the identity of the visitor, he might as well play dumb and say something polite.

"I am a subordinate of Concubine Wu. Today, Concubine Wu wants to invite Duke Kangguo to her bedroom for a chat." said the eunuch.

Chang An naturally wanted to symbolically refuse first: "Please tell Concubine Wu that my wife is waiting for me at home. I dare not bother Concubine Wu anymore."

"Please allow me to take my leave."

Chang An was about to leave, but the eunuch was also a seasoned man, so he said, "Duke Kangguo, the imperial concubine wants you to write a few poems for her. The imperial concubine also said that if you write well, she can say a few good words to your majesty when you have something to do in the future."

Chang An raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Ying, who then shook his head slightly at him, as if to signal "don't go". But Chang An thought for a while and said, "I am not talented, so I will show my ugliness."

"Duke Kangguo, please."

After saying this, the eunuch turned and left without seeing Li Ying and Chang An smiling at each other.

Because the eunuch came alone on foot, he did not bring a sedan chair. According to Li Longji's arrangement, Chang An should have been in a sedan chair when he was in the imperial city. This time, Chang An could only walk.

At this moment, Yang Shu came with his men and stopped Chang An and the eunuch. In the eunuch's puzzled eyes, Yang Shu said: "Marquis Dingkang, according to the order of His Majesty, you need to sit in the sedan chair, otherwise we will be punished."

Chang An raised his eyebrows, thinking that he would not be able to sit today, so he sat on the sedan chair under the gaze of the eunuch. The eunuch's face changed, and finally he sneered in his heart:

Her Highness the Concubine asked you to come over and was waiting at the door. Now you are riding in a sedan chair and going there. Isn't that an offense?

But Chang An remained calm and allowed the four eunuchs to carry him forward.

Chang An got off the sedan chair when they arrived at Wu Qinghui's Bingyue Palace. Wu Qinghui, Wu Zhong and Wu Xin were waiting at the door. After seeing Chang An, their faces froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

Chang An calmed down, walked up to Concubine Wu, and greeted her politely, "Hello, Concubine Wu."

Wu Qinghui smiled and responded, "Duke Kangguo, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Please come into the palace."

"Thank you, Concubine Wu."

Following Wu Qinghui into Bingyue Palace, Concubine Wu said "Please take a seat", and then an eunuch came forward and placed a chair to the left of where Wu Qinghui was sitting. Chang An nodded slightly, and then sat down directly.

At this time, Wu Qinghui asked, "Duke Kangguo, you should know why I called you here today, right?"

"Of course I know, so I thought about it on the way down." Chang An said with a smile.

Wu Qinghui also praised him in a "commercial" way: "I didn't expect that Duke Kangguo is so talented in poetry that he is willing to write a poem for me. I am very grateful."

Chang An shook his head slightly and said, "You are too kind, Concubine Wu."

"I wonder what poem the Duke of Kangguo thought of today?" Wu Qinghui asked. It was not important what poem he wrote at this time. Because Chang An came in a sedan chair and did not choose to walk in front of the royal family. Even if he was scolded, it was enough.

"I was watching an opera with my wife before, and I happened to hear a piece of music called 'Qingping Diao', which left a trace in my mind." Chang An replied, "But today, Concubine Wu spoke, so I dared to modify the poem a little and write it."

Wu Qinghui's heart was slightly moved at this moment: A poem written for your wife? A poem written for a merchant's daughter is being used to talk about me?

You can also refer to another book.

But Wu Qinghui had a plan, so he said, "Nothing, bring me paper and pen!"

At this time, two eunuchs came over, holding paper and pen. Wu Qinghui continued, "Duke Kangguo, just read it, and the servants will copy it down."

"That's an offense." Chang An nodded slightly, then stood up and began to read:

"The clouds resemble clothes and the flowers resemble faces; the spring breeze blows against the threshold and the dew is thick. If we had not met on the top of the Jade Mountain, we would have met under the moon on the Jade Terrace. The above is one of them."

"The second: A branch of luxuriant flowers, with dew and fragrance, the clouds and rain at Wushan are in vain and heartbreaking. May I ask who in the Han Palace can be like it, poor Feiyan relying on her new makeup."

"Third: The famous flower and the beautiful woman are in love with each other, and the king looks at them with a smile. Explaining the infinite hatred of the spring breeze, the Chenxiang Pavilion leans against the railings in the north."

After reading the three poems, Chang An sat down again - this was the poem Li Bai gave to Yang Guifei. The poem was good, the sentences were good, but it was a pity that it was used by someone with ulterior motives.

Today, let's borrow this poem to see if Wu Qinghui has the ink pen to see the problem in the poem. If he can't see it, everyone is happy. If he can see it, then he has fallen into a trap.

Wu Qinghui nodded at this time, and then asked: "Duke Kangguo, what are the names of these three poems?"

"Title: Three Poems of Qingping Tune."

When the eunuch wrote the title of the poem, he gave the paper to Chang An to read. After confirming that there were no typos, he gave it to Wu Qinghui. Wu Qinghui read it up and down and was slightly surprised - it was really a good poem.

After reading the first poem, she felt that there was nothing wrong with it. She put it aside with a little disappointment and asked the palace maid to take it to Wu Xin and Wu Zhong for inspection. When she read the second poem, a glimmer suddenly flashed in her eyes -

found it!

Chang An remained calm and waited for Wu Qinghui to explode. But at this time, Wu Qinghui's face began to "change", without any big moves, she just slapped the poem paper on the table, and then continued to look at the third poem.

Hearing the sound of clapping on the table, Chang An's mouth corners slightly raised, and then lowered. At this time, he had already made a bet in his heart...

Wu Qinghui finished reading the three poems and seemed angry. At this time, the palace maid came in and said, "Your Highness, His Majesty is here."

At this moment, smiles appeared on the faces of the four people in the room.

Li Longji walked in, followed by Li Ying. Wu Zhong and Wu Xin bowed, Wu Qinghui knelt, and Chang An nodded slightly. They all greeted, "Your Majesty."

Li Longji looked at Wu Qinghui first and asked, "My beloved, why is Marquis Dingkang here with you?"

"Your Majesty, I heard that Duke Kangguo is an unparalleled poet, so I wanted him to write a poem for me." Wu Qinghui said, and suddenly changed the subject: "But Duke Kangguo offended me with his poem."

Li Ying was standing behind Li Longji at this time, with a look of joy on his face, but he quickly suppressed it.

Li Longji frowned slightly at this time, glanced at Chang An, and asked, "Is this true?"

"Your Majesty, I wrote the poem, but I did not offend anyone," Chang An replied.

"Where's the poem? Let me see it."

Li Longji then reached out his hand, and Wu Qinghui also picked up the poem paper and handed it to the other party. His Majesty took the poem paper and read it, but after reading it for a while, he felt that it was very good, and it was about a beautiful woman.

Then he handed the poem paper to Gao Lishi and Li Ying respectively, and Wu Qinghui said: "Marquis Dingkang said that I am Zhao Feiyan who brought disaster to the court."

Li Longji frowned, then took the second piece of paper and read it, and finally asked: "Chang Yonghe, did you satirize my Concubine Wu in this poem?"

"Your Majesty, I swear by my life that this poem could never be used to satirize Concubine Wu," Chang An replied.

"Father, these three poems were indeed written by you. And they were indeed not meant to satirize Concubine Wu. I can guarantee it." Li Ying suddenly spoke, attracting Li Longji's attention.

"How did you know that?"

"Two days ago, when I was chatting with you, I heard him mention this poem. He was inspired by the Qingping Diao and wanted to write it for Madam Gu."

"Written to the Lady of Zichuan County?" Li Longji asked at this time, "But why do you say it was written to Concubine Wu?"

Chang An then replied, "Your Majesty, these three poems were indeed written for my wife. The reason why Your Majesty saw them here with Concubine Wu was because Concubine Wu suddenly invited me here today and wanted me to write a poem."

"I was eager to return home and had no intention of thinking of new poems. Since they were all about beauties, I dared to modify this poem a little and give it to Concubine Wu. But I never thought that I would offend Concubine Wu."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Concubine Wu."

Wu Qinghui was stunned at this moment, and then it suddenly dawned on her—she had fallen into a trap!
