Chapter 86

Or for example, "A glance back and a smile, a hundred charms are born, the beauties of the six palaces lose their color."

And that "Graceful as a startled swan, elegant as a swimming dragon; glorious as autumn chrysanthemums, flourishing as spring pines."

In the history of China, there are too many poems describing beauties, and there are many for Li Li Lianhua to choose from!

Thus, after pondering for a moment, Li Li Lianhua made his decision!

If one wants to talk about a poem describing a beauty, it’s better to use Li Bai’s *Qing Ping Diao: Part 1*.

However, such a good poem, and he can come up with it in just ten or so breaths? That’s a bit too exaggerated!

So, this time Li Li Lianhua waited a bit longer, um, twenty or so breaths, that should be fine, right?

Otherwise, if he really had to wait for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea? Wouldn't that be awkward?

Thus, after waiting for about twenty or so breaths, Li Li Lianhua said: "Got it!"

"Young Master Li, you are so fast, don't you want to think about it for a moment?"

Although she appeared gentle, this was related to her lifetime achievement award, so Qin Cao was even more anxious than Li Li Lianhua. Seeing him finish so quickly, she felt a bit uneasy!

"I already said just now, a masterpiece is created by heaven, and a skilled hand finds it by chance; such a heaven-made masterpiece, what ability do I have to change it?" Li Li Lianhua explained to Qin Cao, half-truthfully!

Indeed, he knew his own situation! Li Bai’s poem, what ability did he have to change it?

"A masterpiece is created by heaven, and a skilled hand finds it by chance? Young Master Li, every sentence you say is a beautiful sentence!"

Miss Qin Cao’s eyes were still bright, as if they could speak, and the way she looked at Li Li Lianhua was truly sparkling!

"Ahem..."

Li Li Lianhua cleared his throat and said: "Everyone, listen carefully to this poem of mine!"

"Clouds remind me of her clothes, flowers remind me of her face, the spring breeze brushes the railing, the dew is thick and bright!"

"If not seen at the top of the Qunyu Mountain, we will meet under the moon at the Yao Terrace!"

Silence!

Just four lines, echoing in this Hundred Flowers Pavilion, truly lingering like music!

Immortal!

Li Li Lianhua’s poem, not only was it simply wonderful, but between the lines, it gave people a feeling of being full of immortal spirit!

"Good poem, truly a good poem, *Rain Bell* and *River Snow* were already unique and good poems, but this one is even better by three points!"

"If *Rain Bell* and *River Snow* can be passed down for a hundred generations, then this one can be passed down for a thousand years!"

"I have seen many poems praising beauties, but none can surpass this one!"

"It doesn't directly describe the beauty, and the word 'beauty' doesn't even appear in the poem, but it depicts the beauty vividly, as if immortal and illusory!"

"For a poem describing a beauty, I would call this one the first in a thousand years!"

"This, brother, isn't that a bit exaggerated?"

"Exaggerated? Then let me ask you, since ancient times, which poem describing a beauty do you think can compare to this one?"

"This, I really can't think of one!"

……

Qin Cao’s originally gentle temperament couldn't hold up anymore, she covered her cherry lips with both hands, her eyes full of surprise, looking at Li Li Lianhua in disbelief, feeling her whole body go limp!

The four lines of this poem kept echoing in her mind, completely disrupting her thoughts!

Although Qin Cao couldn't compose such a good poem, and even felt she couldn't do even one-tenth of it.

But she could still appreciate the beauty of this poem!

So? For a brothel woman, the highest pursuit is to be able to leave a mark in a world-renowned poem. Have I really achieved such an achievement?

Looking at the handsome man in front of her, Qin Cao understood that she had completely fallen!

With such talent, which woman in the world could resist?

Sleep with him!

With such literary talent, he will surely be a great poet whose name will be passed down through the ages. If I can sleep with him, that would be a huge bargain.

Even if it meant losing everything, it would be worth it!

"This, how can there be such a perfect person in this world!? One cannot be friends with such a person, because no matter how outstanding others are, they can only become his foil!"

Looking at Li Li Lianhua, Lu Xie Xiaofeng, who was nearby, was also stunned, then shook his head and smiled bitterly inwardly!

Jiang Hu secrets were at his fingertips; it was as if there were no secrets in front of him!

It is rumored that his martial arts have reached the realm of a Sword Immortal, or even a Land Sword Immortal, and his sword-flying technique is still talked about to this day!

And his medical skills, it is rumored that he can bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh and bones!

I didn't expect that these were just the beginning. I brought him to a brothel, and he actually came up with three poems and lyrics in one go!? Each one is a world-renowned masterpiece?

For an ordinary person, being able to compose one would be a glory for a lifetime!

But him? Good guy, three in one go, and each took only ten or so breaths!

At most, this last one took twenty or so breaths!

For an ordinary person to come up with a good poem, who doesn't spend days of bitter thought? Polishing and revising?

Lu Xie Xiaofeng has always liked making friends, and one could even say he has friends all over the world!

Besides his social anxiety (in reverse), the main thing is that he has ability!

However, in front of Li Li Lianhua, for the first time, Lu Xie Xiaofeng felt that others were too outstanding, and that being friends with him was completely climbing the social ladder!

"May I ask, Young Master Li, does this poem have a title?" Suddenly, Yu Yu Ruyi, who was nearby, seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly asked Li Li Lianhua!

"A title? I haven't thought about it yet!" Hearing this, Li Li Lianhua shook his head very simply!

The title *Qing Ping Diao* naturally cannot be used, after all, *Qing Ping Diao* has three poems and lyrics, Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3!

This *Qing Ping Diao* is similar to a collective name, just like Lu Xun’s *Dawn Blossoms Plucked at Dusk* series!

If you take out an article like *From the Hundred Grass Garden to the Three Flavor Study*, you can't say this article is *Dawn Blossoms Plucked at Dusk*, right?

However, if you don't say it’s *Qing Ping Diao*, do you say it’s Part 1?

Good guy! What kind of poem title is that?

Therefore, Li Li Lianhua simply didn't have the intention to give this poem a title!

"Such a good poem, how can it not have a title? Since it was composed in my Hundred Flowers Pavilion, I think, let’s call this poem *Hundred Flowers Pavilion*?" Yu Yu Ruyi heard this and immediately expressed her idea!

"This..." Li Li Lianhua frowned slightly.

Although he hadn't thought of a title, for such a world-renowned masterpiece, to name it after a brothel?

Li Li Lianhua was naturally unwilling!

"Young Master Li, if this poem can be named *Hundred Flowers Pavilion*, I am willing to pay one thousand, no, three thousand taels of silver!" Yu Yu Ruyi saw that Li Li Lianhua was unwilling and hurriedly said!

"Yu Yu Ruyi, you are bullying people a bit, aren't you? For such a unique masterpiece, you only offer three thousand taels of silver to name it? I am willing to offer ten thousand taels!" A man nearby stood up directly!

What is this? This is a world-renowned masterpiece that can be passed down for a thousand years. If one’s name could become the title of this poem, then one’s family would also be passed down for a thousand years!

Many businessmen thought about this; after a hundred years, when the industry is left to future generations, to have such a poem passed down for a thousand years, this is the precious wealth left to future generations, right?

A hundred years, or even hundreds of years later, even if one’s descendants don't recognize one.

But thinking of this poem, oh, it turns out the name is the ancestor?

How great would that effect be?

"I offer twenty thousand taels, I offer twenty-eight thousand taels!"

"I offer fifty thousand taels!"

……

The Three Barriers challenge, with Li Li Lianhua’s world-renowned good poem coming out, and without a title, to compete for the naming rights of this poem, the scene immediately became like an auction!

Yu Yu Ruyi, who was nearby, looked at the lively scene and shook her head inwardly!

It’s not that she couldn't take out tens of thousands of taels of silver, it’s just that for the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, this naming right is only a contribution to the present!

Unlike those businessmen who got the naming rights, it is a benefit for a thousand years!

Other people’s commercial industries can be passed down to future generations, which is like an advertisement for a hundred or a thousand years!

But for this Hundred Flowers Pavilion of mine, does it have to be passed down for a hundred or a thousand years?

Therefore, those businessmen, because of sufficient benefits, can spend tens of thousands of taels of silver just for a naming right, but for the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, the return and the investment are too disproportionate!

"Everyone, this Hundred Flowers Pavilion Three Barriers challenge is an elegant matter. If we talk about money, wouldn't it seem vulgar? Please don't mention paying for naming rights again!"

"Since this poem was composed in the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, and it was Miss Qin Cao who set the topic, describing her beauty!"

"The title of this poem is also very simple, let’s call it *Hundred Flowers Pavilion Presents to Qin Cao*!"

"Alright, it’s settled!"

Seeing these people bidding one after another, Li Li Lianhua’s brow twitched wildly, then he spoke up and set the title of the poem himself!

As for such a good poem, taking a title that presents it to a brothel woman, doesn't that count as insulting Li Bai?
