Chapter 669: Little Yangzi, Can You Write Poetry?

Lotus Tower is very famous among the literati in the Imperial City.

First, it has the Charm Sect as its background. The Charm Sect is a proper righteous super-grade sect. Those who can enter the Charm Sect are qualified to be called "beauties", and the Charm Sect attaches great importance to Lotus Tower, regarding Lotus Tower as part of the disciples' cultivation. One can imagine what kind of beauties the people in Lotus Tower are.

Second, the people in Lotus Tower are indeed very talented, and even the people in the Hanlin Academy may not be able to compare with them. If an article is recognized by Lotus Tower, it can soon become famous in the Imperial City.

Of course, the Decayed Fairy doesn't care about this point; she is just here to watch the fun.

Today is the Lantern Festival, and Lotus Tower is even more lively than usual.

There is no thick rouge atmosphere in Lotus Tower like ordinary brothels. On the contrary, it is more like a quiet and elegant paradise, and everyone who comes and goes is a gentleman and a lady.

There are also female cultivators in bright long skirts flying in the air, with wide and long clothes, swaying with the wind, gently stroking the pipa, with the beauty of the exotic Buddha Kingdom.

The Decayed Fairy also saw many people she had beaten in Luo Forest.

Regardless of whether the cultivation of the young masters in the Imperial City is high or low, in terms of what they are good at, they are definitely the most comprehensive. In their childhood, they learned cultivation knowledge in private schools and learned Confucian knowledge. They are proficient in both literature and martial arts.

If they don't learn Confucian knowledge and don't know a few lines of classical poetry, it would be too embarrassing to only say "Damn, awesome" when encountering very powerful characters in the future.

Lotus Tower is a serious place, without that kind of bed affairs, so it is not strange for women to come to Lotus Tower.

Meng Jingyu's curiosity is no less than the Decayed Fairy's. She looked at the beauties who each had their own merits with curiosity and envy.

"The sisters are all so beautiful."

"Are they?" The Decayed Fairy didn't feel anything, thinking that the Charm Sect disciples looked average, and couldn't even rank in the top ten beauties of ancient times, let alone compare with herself, the head of the top ten beauties of ancient times.

"You little girl will definitely be better looking than them when you grow up." The Decayed Fairy said seriously. She has always been accurate in looking at people, and she quite likes this little girl who praised her fighting style for being handsome. She dotingly scraped Meng Jingyu's little nose. Meng Jingyu lowered her head with a red face and said "Hmm" like a mosquito.

Meng Jingzhou, who had just walked in: "..."

No, Decayed Senior, can you stop using Lu Yang's face to say such cheesy words? I'm not very used to it.

Lu Yang, who was practicing with the Invincible Baby in the spiritual space, also temporarily stopped cultivating and looked at the Decayed Fairy with a strange expression.

Fairy, do you know what it means to distinguish between men and women?

"Oh, Brother Lu also came here?" Luo Wushuang noticed that Lu Yang had come to Lotus Tower. His realm had recovered to the early Spirit Transformation stage.

"Lu Yang is here?"

"That Lu Yang who showed great power in Luo Forest?"

"Where, where?"

The battle of Luo Forest ended not long ago, and everyone remembered that battle vividly, even those who didn't participate had heard of it.

"It's very lively upstairs." The Decayed Fairy looked up at the top floor of Lotus Tower. Luo Wushuang was standing on the railing greeting her.

"Brother Lu, why don't you go up and take a look? I heard that the true disciple of the Charm Sect, Ye Mengyin, is practicing in Lotus Tower, on the top floor." Zhong Yi again instigated Lu Yang to go upstairs.

The Decayed Fairy still didn't pay attention to Zhong Yi and pulled Meng Jingyu's little hand upstairs.

Meng Jingzhou raised his eyebrows, thinking that this kid Zhong Yi had bad intentions, but the Immortal wanted to go upstairs, so did he dare to stop her?

"Brother Meng is here too." Luo Wushuang bowed and invited Meng Jingzhou and the others to sit at his table.

Compared to when he was in Luo Forest, the clothes he wore in Lotus Tower were more exquisite and formal, and he looked more temperamental.

"What is this doing?" Meng Jingzhou noticed that the top floor of Lotus Tower was full of literati, and at the end was a layer of green gauze. A female cultivator sat behind the green gauze and played the zither. The zither sound was ding-dong, like a spring breeze.

Luo Wushuang was stunned: "Doesn't Brother Meng know? I thought you were also here for Ye Mengyin."

Meng Jingzhou knew Ye Mengyin. She was a beauty not inferior to Junior Sister Tao. At the Wen Dao Grand Ceremony, Ye Mengyin participated as the representative of the Charm Sect's mid-Golden Core stage, and her opponent was Meng Jingzhou.

Seeing that Meng Jingzhou truly did not know, Luo Wushuang explained: "Ye Mengyin only came to the Lotus Pavilion half a month ago, yet she has already become its top courtesan. People are willing to spend a fortune just to catch a glimpse of her."

"But she is a true disciple of the Charm Sect, and it is said that she has the background of Venerable Qianjiao, so she wouldn't be short of spirit stones."

"Ye Mengyin set a rule: whoever can write poetry that satisfies her, she will see that person and dance for that person."

Ye Mengyin's dance is not only beautiful, but also of great benefit to heart cultivation.

Luo Wushuang pursed his lips, signaling Meng Jingzhou to look at this group of people sitting: "Look, five days have passed, and no one has written poetry that satisfies her."

"Today is the Lantern Festival, and Ye Mengyin requires today's poetry to be related to the Lantern Festival."

Not everyone who comes here is for Ye Mengyin's dance, and many people are here to become famous in the Imperial City.

While speaking, someone handed the written poetry to the maid, and the maid handed it to Ye Mengyin behind the green gauze.

"The moon is full and the lanterns are like day, the Lantern Festival is in the busy market, laughter and talk hide lantern riddles, tangyuan warms the throat and is soft."

Ye Mengyin read out the poem softly, and then continued to play the zither.

Everyone laughed loudly. This was just a mediocre doggerel, and it was embarrassing to appear in Lotus Tower.

The person who wrote that poem fled in a panic.

Swish!

Zhong Yi opened his fan very hard, looked at Lu Yang, and smiled softly: "Brother Lu is a disciple of Daoist Wuyu, so you should be proficient in poetry. Why don't you try one?"

"Think back to when Daoist Wuyu left several famous works in Lotus Tower."

He concluded that Lu Yang was talented in cultivation but knew nothing about what Confucian cultivators learned; otherwise, he wouldn't have heard of it before.

If Lu Yang failed to make a poem, it would be a joke and become a laughingstock.

The Decayed Fairy was puzzled: "When did I become proficient in poetry?"

Zhong Yi was speechless. He didn't expect the Decayed Fairy to admit it so readily, and his subsequent provocation plan was useless.

"Since Brother Lu is timid and unwilling to try, why don't you let me try?" Someone behind Zhong Yi said, looking at the Decayed Fairy with a bit of contempt.

The Decayed Fairy noticed the person behind Zhong Yi.

The Decayed Fairy pointed to that person and showed a look of sudden realization: "Oh, I remember you, you were beaten by me in Luo Forest!"

That is, the combat power is mediocre, and there is no impression.

In the spiritual space, Lu Yang helplessly introduced the other party's identity to the Decayed Fairy: "His name is Yang Zhangbin, his father is a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and he himself is a Confucian cultivator. It is said that he wrote at three, wrote poetry at five, and could write articles at ten. His poetry and articles are quite famous in the Imperial City."

Zhong Yi specially brought Yang Zhangbin over and asked him to write poetry in Lotus Tower. He just happened to see Lu Yang also in Lotus Tower, so he thought about letting Lu Yang write poetry and lose face. As a comparison, he let Yang Zhangbin go up.

It's a pity that Lu Yang saw through his strategy and didn't fall for it.

"It's Yang Zhangbin!"

"Damn, why did he come too!"

Yang Zhangbin's reputation was even greater than Lu Yang imagined. Seeing Yang Zhangbin, everyone showed regret, as if as long as Yang Zhangbin wrote poetry, he could win Ye Mengyin's dance.

Yang Zhangbin showed a confident smile. Before coming, he had heard the topic Ye Mengyin set and had already thought of the poem.

He ordered someone to bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, wrote a poem with a dragon and snake, and asked the maid to hand it over.

Ye Mengyin behind the green gauze stopped playing the zither again, read the poem softly, and rarely commented after reading it.

"It's a pity, the words are good words, but the rhetoric is too gorgeous, which is inferior."

Everyone laughed loudly. Originally, after hearing Ye Mengyin read the poem, they all thought this was a famous work and could get Ye Mengyin's favor. Who would have thought that Ye Mengyin would comment without any mercy.

Yang Zhangbin was angry and turned his head to stare fiercely at everyone, especially at the Decayed Fairy who laughed the loudest.

"Brother Lu's laughter is so loud, I think there must be an article in your chest, why don't you write it out for us to see!"

The Decayed Fairy scratched her head and hurriedly entered the spiritual space to seek the help of the golden finger.

"Little Yangzi, can you write poetry?"

Lu Yang hesitated: "It's difficult for me to write poetry, but if you want to recite a few to support the scene, I have some." ===== CHAPTER 670 =====
