My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

Li Weihao had just finished reading the poem when he heard some exclamations from behind him at the door. Looking over, they were all ladies who had come with the winner of the imperial examination.

Du Chengming smiled at this time and said, "What a pity, Brother Yonghe, you are only the top scholar, not the third place, otherwise these ladies would be cheering for you today."

"Why do you say that?" Chang An asked, taking a sip of tea.

"The requirements for the Tanhua Lang are very simple. First, he must pass the imperial examination and then have a handsome appearance." Du Chengming explained, "To put it bluntly, who wouldn't like a handsome man with good talent?"

Chang An also smiled. At this time, Li Weihao picked up a wine glass and said to Chang An: "Brother Yonghe, this glass is for you."

Chang An nodded, picked up the teacup and drank with him. After Li Weihao finished drinking, he sat directly next to Chang An. Chang An looked around and saw that the ladies who were originally standing at the door had also found a good position to sit down, and without exception, these positions were where they could see Li Weihao.

Du Chengming then asked, "Tanhua Lang, where did you get all these words?"

"In the whole Chang'an City, apart from Qujiang, the most flowers are naturally found in Pingkangfang. I picked the flowers in Pingkangfang." Li Weihao said with a smile.

"So you didn't see the lady of your dreams?" Du Chengming asked at this time.

"No," Li Weihao shook his head and said, "The person I like is not here."

At this time, Chang An and Du Chengming's curiosity was aroused, and they subconsciously moved closer to Li Weihao. The former asked, "I wonder what the name and identity of the person that Brother Qingming likes?"

"I don't have much status. I'm just a farm girl spinning clothes in the fields." Li Weihao smiled.

"What's the name of the person that Brother Qingming likes? Could you please tell us?" Du Chengming also asked, "Tell me, I will pay the betrothal gift for you, and you can marry her in a grand manner."

"It's not wrong to tell Brother Xingmei, but don't bother with the betrothal gift. I have the reward money for passing the imperial examination, which should be enough for the betrothal gift. Besides, if the betrothal gift is too much, she will think it is extravagant and wasteful."

Chang An and Du Chengming both nodded in understanding and said, "That's true."

"That's true, but..." Li Weihao took out a hairpin from his arms, put it on the table, and said, "I still bought a hairpin like this."

Chang An and Du Chengming looked at it carefully at this time, and they were stunned at the first sight - a diamond hairpin!

The two looked at each other and saw the same helplessness in each other's eyes. Li Weihao said, "I think this hairpin is very beautiful, and the shop owner said it is for weddings, so I bought it."

After he finished speaking, Li Weihao raised his head and put away the hairpin. At this time, he also happened to see the strange expressions of Chang An and Du Chengming, so he asked, "What's wrong? But is it inappropriate for me to buy this hairpin?"

Chang An tentatively asked, "Did you mention my name when you went to buy it?"

Li Weihao felt puzzled at this moment and asked, "Why do you have to report Brother Yonghe's name?"

"Because this hairpin was made by Brother Yonghe, it was originally intended for use in marrying Madam Gu, and then he gave the right to make this hairpin to that shop." Du Chengming explained.

Li Weihao was stunned for a moment, but then said, "Forget it, this is what I'm going to use as a betrothal gift. Why do I need Brother Yonghe to come forward?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing, I just said that." Chang An waved his hand and said.

The three gentlemen just sat there, chatting away, not realizing that all eyes were on them. After all, looking at the entire place, only Chang An's table could be considered "pure land".

"By the way, Brother Yonghe, today is the Qujiang Banquet. Why don't we all write a poem to liven up the atmosphere?" Li Weihao suggested, "Brother Xingmei, do you want to join us?"

"I won't participate. I'm not good at writing poetry." Du Chengming waved his hand and said, "I'll be the referee, and you two can compete."

"No competition, it's just used to liven up the atmosphere." Li Weihao shook his head and said.

Chang An picked up a cake and put it in his mouth, then asked, "What poem do you want to write?"

Du Chengming laughed at this time, and then said: "Today is the Qujiang Banquet, and we passed the imperial examination today, so naturally we have to write some poems after passing the imperial examination."

"Brother Qingming has already written it. Let's take a rest first. Brother Yonghe will come first."

"Okay, bring me a pen!" Chang An wiped his hands and said.

The maids around them naturally did the same. Then Du Chengming said, "No need to bring paper. Let's just use the previous Xingyuan tradition."

The maid replied "yes" and left. When she came back, she had already taken the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Chang An took the pen, but didn't know where to write. But at this moment, Chang An looked up and saw a dancer standing in front of him.

Chang An was stunned, and slowly raised his head, and found that the dancer was smiling, and lifted up her white skirt, as if asking Chang An to write on it. The top scholar looked at Du Chengming in confusion, and asked: "This..."

Du Chengming pushed him and said, "Write it. It's normal."

At this time, Li Weihao also said: "This is the tradition of Qujiang Banquet. Don't be embarrassed."

At this point, Chang An took a last look at the dancer, who looked like a flower, and began to write on her white skirt:

"The new class of parrots are feasting in the apricot garden, so why not the old cranes take the carriage? On the golden list on the wall of the south courtyard, the student who sees it three times is the top scorer."

Chang An threw the pen, and the dancer walked to the center of the crowd. Everyone saw Chang An's poem here. Then another dancer came forward and stood in front of Li Weihao.

Li Weihao took the pen and started writing, but when the dancer stood next to the previous dancer, everyone shook their heads slightly. The result was obvious. Li Weihao sighed and said with a wry smile:

"Sure enough, the world's number one is worthy of his reputation."

At this time, the music started again, and the two dancers on the stage began to dance again. Their white dance skirts were stained with black ink, and the black and white seemed to have a different kind of beauty when they danced.

Chang An seemed to be feeling a little bored at this time, so he stood up and said, "I'm going back first, my wife is still waiting for me at home."

"Are you leaving now?" Li Weihao asked.

Chang An nodded, gestured to the Imperial College Master, and left...

At this time, Gu Li was still resting at home, sitting on the bed, accompanied by two personal maids. At this time, the door opened, and then the voices of Huaiqin and Zhener were heard:

"Son."

Gu Li was slightly startled, then stood up slightly and looked towards the door. He saw that his top scholar had walked in and smiled at him. Gu Li wanted to get out of bed to greet him, but Chang An was faster and had already come to the bed.

"Don't move, just rest well in bed."

Chang An's tone was full of doting. Gu Li responded with a sweet smile and said softly, "Chang Lang, you're back."

"Well, I'm back."

Chang An nodded, then exchanged a kiss with her, and asked with concern: "How is it? How do you feel, Madam Gu?"

"It's okay, it just hurts a little from time to time." Gu Li said, touching his belly gently.

"Have you asked the two imperial physicians to take a look? What did the imperial physicians say?" Chang An also put his hand on Gu Li's belly, his eyes full of concern.

"I asked, but the two imperial doctors didn't know what was going on either," said Gu Li.

"What did the midwife say?" Since it was either a physical problem or a problem with the child, Chang An asked.

"The midwife said that I'm about to give birth, and Xiaoguai will be born in the next few days." The solemnity on Gu Li's face disappeared, replaced by a happy smile.

Chang An was stunned for a moment, then he kissed her hard on the face and said, "Have you learned how to tease me now? Little goblins learn things quickly."

"no!"

......

Late at night, Chang An was sleeping soundly. In his dream, he vaguely heard a sobbing sound, and his hand was shaken. He woke up immediately, and asked in the dark: "What's wrong, Gu Niang?"

"I......"

"pain......"

Chang An was stunned, and did not even have time to put on his clothes, and he got up and lit the candle. When he returned to the bed, he saw Gu Li's painful face. At this time, she was struggling to support herself with one hand. Chang An lifted the quilt and found that there was a wet spot on the bed.

My water broke!

Chang An immediately became nervous, gently touched Gu Li's face, and comforted her: "Mother Gu, wait for me, I'll go get someone."

"Um...um..."

At this time, Gu Li was already gasping in pain. Seeing this, Chang An ran out of the house and shouted across the courtyard wall: "Someone come!"

Chang An was already shouting with all his might. The first lights to light up were in Huaiqin and Zhener's rooms next to the courtyard wall. The two maids didn't even have time to put on their clothes, they just put on a coat and ran out.

"What's wrong, sir?"

"Go and call someone quickly, Mother Gu is about to give birth!" Chang An felt a little uncomfortable in his throat because of the shout just now.

"it is good."

Zhen'er and Huaiqin ran away at this time, and then came the two sisters Changqi and Changqi. The two sisters were simpler, and now they were lying on the wall, wearing nothing but the clothes on their bodies and no shoes.

"Go call the midwife, Madam Gu is about to give birth!"

Chang Qi and Chang Qi were both stunned for a moment, then nodded and flew away directly from the top of the wall.

Soon, the entire Dingkang Marquis Mansion was in chaos:

"Madam is giving birth!"

"Hurry up and prepare things!"

"Light the lamp! Go and light the lamp!"
