Chapter 249 Nalan Xingde's Poems
"It's okay, I'll go with you tomorrow. My sister can't be looked down upon!" After Li Yu finished speaking, he felt that he had heard this tone somewhere before. It was exactly the same tone that Gong Ken used when encouraging Li Yu.
"How are you going to go? Dress up as a woman and pretend to be a maid?"
"What else can I do? I'll just stay in the study all day tomorrow, no need to worry."
Although Li Yu's literary skills weren't particularly high, he was still fascinated by Nalan Xingde for a time, and his story is worth exploring. He even memorized many of his poems; "One Life, One Love, One Pair" is a classic, so I won't go into detail. This time, Li Yu gave Li Yue a poem, "Bodhisattva's Charm": "The misty window faces the distant twilight, the twilight sky faces the misty window. Flowers fall as crows cry, crows cry as flowers fall. Sleeves hang low, casting a slender shadow, a slender shadow hangs low on the sleeves. The wind trims a thread of red, a thread of red trimmed by the wind."
After looking at it for a long time, Li Yue couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister, you're so amazing! This poem is so interesting!"
"I didn't write this poem." It's unclear whether Li Yue listened or not, but she was very happy.
At the poetry gathering the following day, Li Yu, disguised as a maid, followed behind Li Yue with her head bowed. Li Yue also stole the show at the gathering, and her poem "Bodhisattva's Charm" became widely known. Although she probably didn't write it herself, she was still very happy. However, Li Yu still said, "You still need to study hard. Now that you've made a name for yourself, you can't ruin it. Do you understand?"
Li Yue was very obedient and immediately agreed. The poem quickly reached the ears of the Crown Prince, and Jin Shilin, the eldest son of the Jin family, was the Crown Prince's study companion, so it naturally reached the Crown Prince's ears quickly as well.
The Crown Prince looked at Grand Tutor Gong standing beside him and asked, "Grand Tutor, what do you think of this poem?"
Gong Ken didn't know what to think. He recognized the poem; it was by Nalan Xingde. After all, for a period of time, his younger sister read Nalan Xingde's poems every day, and she was particularly fond of this one, reading it countless times! Gong Ken immediately realized that it must have come from his sister. "Who wrote this poem?"
Jin Shilin, standing to the other side, replied, "It's Li Yue'er, the younger sister of General Li Yu."
Gong Ken was somewhat shocked by this answer. Could Li Yue'er be his sister? Gong Ken quickly composed himself; such emotions weren't good, not for himself or his sister. Just as An Ge had said, there really was a clue!
"This poem describes the scenery before one's eyes. Although it is not very significant, it is still elegant and unique."
"However, one can see skillful writing techniques in it. This was indeed written by a teenager?" Crown Prince Mingtuo asked with some doubt. Gong Ken knew it was his sister's plagiarism, but he still covered for her.
"This might be a poem that a child has carefully considered for a long time, which he wants to show to his friends. There's no need to take it too seriously."
Mingtuo didn't think about the matter too much after hearing it, and just continued to look at the document in his hand, which stated that all parties were at peace.
The next day at court, Gong Ken paid more attention to Li Yue'er's brother. He hadn't noticed him in the past few days, but now he realized how much he resembled his sister. Just as the court session ended and before he had even left the court, Gong Ken called out to Li Yu.
"Li Yu, General Li, please wait."
Gong Ken strode to Li Yu's side. Judging from her impatient expression, she could tell from her eyes that Li Yu was annoyed. However, upon seeing her face, she found it strangely familiar. Li Yu looked at Gong Taifu's face with surprise; it was a face she had seen for over twenty years, a face she found repulsive yet strangely endearing.
"General Li, would you be willing to discuss this elsewhere?"
Li Yu didn't hesitate much and immediately agreed! This face was exactly like her older brother's; Li Yu even had the urge to give him a good whack on the back of the head! They left the palace together and went to the Shi An Ju restaurant in the capital. In the private room, the table was laden with food and wine. The two sat separately, waiting for the other to start the conversation.
Looking at that smug face, Li Yu spoke first, "Brother! You..."
As soon as Li Yu called him by his name, Gong Ken couldn't hold back anymore, "Little sister! You really time-traveled too!"
