Chapter 150 Poetry Party Invitation

"Scholar Guo, in the next two days, Prince Jing's palace will hold a poetry festival, and I invite you to come!" Although Li Hongcheng is Guo Baokun's love rival, in terms of recuperation, he is indeed as gentle as jade, and he is kind-hearted. Fan Ruoruo couldn't bear to see Guo Baokun bullying an honest person. He pinched Guo Baokun's ribs secretly and told him not to go too far and not always bully an honest person.

Even though Guo Baokun has been ridiculing Li Hongcheng, he is not angry at all. After all, people will not be hurt by irrelevant people. But seeing Fan Ruoruo and Guo Baokun's secret intimate gestures, he still couldn't help feeling sad, and there was a flash in his eyes. With a trace of sadness, people will only be hurt by the person they love. Even the inadvertent movements and actions of the person they love will break through their defenses. All their defenses are ineffective against the person they love.

"Poetry meeting? Don't go. I'm not good at composing poetry, so I won't show off my shame!" Guo Baokun was not interested in the so-called poetry meeting at all. During the imperial examination, many scholars would attend various poetry meetings. The purpose was to make a name for himself, so that everything went smoothly in the imperial examination, but Guo Baokun never participated. After all, Guo Youzhi was the Minister of Rites, so there was no need to take such a route.

Guo Baokun is still somewhat self-aware of himself. He knows that although he passed the imperial examination and passed high school, it was because he wrote good policy papers and his understanding of classics and history is far beyond ordinary people. However, poetry cannot be written only because of a high degree of brain development, high IQ, and many experiences. People with high IQs tend to be more rational in dealing with things, while poetry tends to be more emotional and inspired. This is what Guo Baokun is not good at, and because the poetry in his previous life was too dazzling and prosperous, it almost All the poems that can be written are included. After Guo Baokun has read these poems, it is difficult to write new ideas, and he does not bother to be a second-rate dealer and take credit for other people's poems, so basically the poems written by Guo Baokun are boring. The rhetoric is complex and lacks any interest or spirituality. Guo Baokun also knows this shortcoming of his own. He rarely shows timidity and never writes poems in front of others.

"Go, go, why don't you go?" Fan Xian suddenly rushed forward and loudly agreed to Li Hongcheng's invitation for Guo Baokun.

"What are you doing?" Guo Baokun rolled his eyes in disgust at Fan Xian who squeezed between him and Ruoruo, and asked with a bad attitude.

"I just arrived in Kyoto and I haven't participated in a poetry festival yet. Can't I go and see it?" Fan Xian seemed to have completely forgotten that he still had a weakness in Guo Baokun's hands. His attitude was completely different from just now.

"Li Hongcheng, I haven't asked you yet, who is this dear friend...?" Li Hongcheng looked at Fan Xian who was arguing with Guo Baokun, and asked Fan Xian's name with his hands raised. He was so polite and considerate that it felt like spring breeze.

"I am Fan Xian, an unknown person who has just arrived in Kyoto from Danzhou. He is Ruoruo's eldest brother. Your Highness the Crown Prince may not have heard of me!" Fan Xian quickly returned the greeting and introduced himself mockingly.

"It turns out to be Brother Fan. Since His Majesty ordered Brother Fan to take over the inner treasury, Brother Fan's name is now known to everyone. Although Hongcheng is ignorant, he has heard of Brother Fan's name, and I have also read about it. The dream of Red Mansions written by my brother is indeed of great literary talent and talent. Hongcheng admires him very much. It is a blessing to see him today. If Brother Fan can come to my house to participate in the poetry meeting, Hongcheng will definitely welcome him! When Li Hongcheng heard Fan Xian's introduction, he immediately became enthusiastic. On the one hand, Fan Xian can be considered a hot commodity now, and on the other hand, because Fan Xian is Fan Ruoruo's elder brother.

"Am I so famous now?" Fan Xian didn't expect that Prince Jing would actually know him, and from what he said, he was already a household name in Kyoto. Fan Xian looked at Fan Ruoruo and thought about Fan Ruoruo's opinion of him. He still shook his head in admiration and asked Guo Baokun on the other side for confirmation.

"It's considered famous. As long as you are in the court, no one cares about who takes over the inner treasury. After all, this is related to the fight for the throne, so you should know how popular you are now. Of course, you should also know how dangerous it is. Be mentally prepared! Hehehehe!" Guo Baokun couldn't help but gloat when he thought of Fan Xian's miserable life in the future.

"It turns out it's because of the internal treasury. I thought it was because I'm extremely talented, with a jade tree facing the wind, a majestic air, and both talent and appearance?" Fan Xian boasted slightly disappointedly. His shameless look made the other side very graceful. Li Hongcheng's mouth twitched a little, and he couldn't help but want to laugh.

"It's not entirely because of this. After all, the Dream of Red Mansions you wrote before is still very popular. Now the ladies and maids in all the houses have admired you for a long time and hope to see you! Even my maid Lu Rui is also Thinking about you day and night is annoying me to death!!" Guo Baokun thought about his maid Lu Rui being in a daze all day long because of Dream of the Red Mansions, so he glared angrily at Fan Xian, who was still narcissistic.

"Green pistil? Why not call it red pistil? Are there any green pistils in the world?" Fan Xian's brain circuit is indeed different from ordinary people, and his focus is different from ordinary people. He doesn't care about being admired by the ladies and maids at all, but is entangled in it. Why did Yu Guo Baokun go against common sense and name his maid Lu Rui?

"Just to make boring people like you feel confused, that's why I named it this way. I like to see you looking uncomfortable but helpless!" Guo Baokun glanced proudly at Fan Xian, who looked confused. , Sure enough, obsessive-compulsive disorder cannot stand the existence of illogicality.

"You are so boring!" Fan Xian reluctantly suppressed the discomfort in his heart and said angrily to Guo Baokun.

Guo Baokun raised his head proudly, looking like a man who would be happy to do so, which made Fan Xian feel even more uncomfortable. He had no choice but to stop looking at him and turned around to communicate with Li Hongcheng again.

"I wonder which girls will attend the poetry meeting on the day of the poetry meeting?" Fan Xian revealed his purpose at this time. It turned out that he wanted to meet Lin Wan'er, the girl with chicken legs. Although Guo Baokun just said that he knew the identity of the girl with chicken legs, but Looking at Guo Baokun's teasing character, I was afraid that it would be difficult to get information from him for a while, so when I heard that Li Hongcheng was going to hold a poetry meeting, I had an idea and wanted to find my chicken-leg girl at the poetry meeting.

"Basically, ladies from all the prefectures in Kyoto will come to participate. There are so many people that Hongcheng cannot introduce them one by one!" Li Hongcheng was a little stunned when he heard Fan Xian's question. He didn't expect Fan Xian to ask this, but Still he answered Fan Xian very gracefully.

"That's good, Prince, don't worry, Ruoruo and I will definitely go to the appointment on time that day!" Fan Xian patted his chest and promised.
