"He even wrote me a poem this morning."
She read aloud the poem Li Xuan had written that morning: "Phoenix eyes, silkworm eyebrows, and rosy cheeks, naturally beautiful and exquisite; delicate hands and cherry lips, enough to make plum blossoms fall in shame."
Xu Xinnian was stunned upon hearing this.
This poem is of a high standard; even among the great scholars of Yunlu Academy, few could compose one.
"Brother-in-law, you are amazing!"
He couldn't help but show his admiration.
Li Xuan said calmly, "I've gained some insights."
Occasional gains?
Xu Xinnian opened his mouth wide, his mouth twitching slightly.
The creation of some excellent poems was indeed occasionally achieved, and they were completed in one go.
but!
There is a prerequisite for this: having a profound foundation and accumulated knowledge.
It's impossible for an ordinary scholar like him to occasionally come up with something and create a masterpiece.
Because his knowledge and skills were completely insufficient.
Li Xuan was able to do it, which shows that he has definitely accumulated a deep level of knowledge and learning.
Li Xuan ignored Xu Xinnian and said, "Alone in a foreign land, I am a stranger; on every festive occasion, I miss my family all the more. I know my brothers are climbing the heights, wearing dogwood, but one is missing."
Upon hearing this, Xu Xinnian was stunned.
This is not just a top-tier poem, but a timeless masterpiece.
His mouth dropped open in shock. "Brother-in-law, you...you're amazing!"
Although his skill level was mediocre, he was well-versed in poetry; it is certain that this famous poem has never appeared before.
It was definitely created by Li Xuan.
Li Xuan smiled and continued, "This is the first one."
"What? There's more?" Xu Xinnian was startled.
The first poem is a timeless masterpiece.
There's a second song?
····················
16. Four famous poems, Zhang Xian's storyline, easily defeat the enemy.
Li Xuan's voice continued.
"Affectionate yet seemingly heartless, I can only manage a forced smile before the wine cup; the candle, though inanimate, seems to grieve at our parting, shedding tears for us until dawn."
"Another timeless farewell poem!" Xu Xinnian was deeply moved.
however.
What shocked him even more was...
Li Xuan's voice still echoed: "A song of parting to untie the boat, red leaves, green hills, and rushing water; at dusk, I awoke from my drunken stupor, the person was already far away, and a storm raged down from the west tower."
“Another one!” Xu Xinnian was completely stunned.
“There’s one more,” Li Xuan said.
"The morning rain in Weicheng dampens the light dust, and the willows by the inn are fresh and green; I urge you to drink another cup of wine, for beyond Yangguan there will be no old friends."
Hearing this, Xu Xinnian was already dumbfounded.
Four poems, each a timeless masterpiece!
In the time it took Li Xuan to drink a cup of tea, he composed four famous poems that have been passed down through the ages.
Such talent and knowledge are truly exceptional; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him the best in the world.
"Alright, that's four songs."
Seeing Xu Xinnian's blank expression, Li Xuan decided to stop.
These four lines of poetry will surely spread throughout the world soon.
This was enough to make him famous and gain him immense popularity.
Whether it's getting involved with Yunlu Academy, improving one's status, or receiving immense help.
At this stage, reputation and status are more important to him.
After all, his strength was not enough to make him stand out from the crowd.
These can be used to deter some petty people.
of course.
Poetry, social status, and reputation are all minor matters.
Strength is the most important thing.
"Brother-in-law, you are so outstanding."
Xu Xinnian looked at Li Xuan with admiration.
He was a scholar who admired those who could speak eloquently and were exceptionally talented.
Li Xuan is that kind of person now.
He was also his brother-in-law; they were related.
How could I not make him idolize me? His eyes sparkled, and he instantly transformed into a little fanboy.
"I feel that my sister is not good enough for you."
He couldn't help but say it aloud.
As soon as these words came out.
Li Ru glared at Xu Xinnian with displeasure: "You brat, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Although she knew that Xu Lingyue was indeed not a good match for Li Xuan.
But now that the marriage has been arranged, we can't afford any unforeseen changes.
"Hmph!" Xu Lingyue also snorted in dissatisfaction.
Seeing this, Xu Xinnian was extremely embarrassed.
Li Xuan smiled slightly and said, "It's alright, I like Lingyue, and that won't change."
"That's good." Li Ru breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Xuan then said, "Judging by the time, I need to go on patrol, so I'll take my leave now."
"Son-in-law, take care!" Li Ru said with a smile.
Xu Xinnian said, "Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will sign these four poems for you, and you will become famous all over the world."
"Brother Li, let me see you out." Xu Lingyue said softly.
···········
He left the Xu family.
Li Xuan patrolled the main street.
I walked to a certain spot and heard some sounds.
"Did you hear that?"
"The county government is currently interrogating the family about the death of the wealthy merchant, Master Zhang."
"I heard that Mr. Zhang's death was related to his wife."
"I don't know, but the interrogation has run into trouble. I heard it involves Lord Xu and the Ministry of Justice as well."
··········
Upon hearing this, Li Xuan's expression shifted.
"Zhang Xian's storyline?"
"Based on this, we should be able to get an invitation from the night watchman."
Since I'm just passing by anyway, I might as well take a walk.
Li Xuan immediately headed towards the county government office.
Shortly after.
Li Xuan arrived at the Chang Le County government office.
They saw Zhang Xianhe and the county magistrate facing off.
At this point, Zhang Xian had already brought up the fact that he was Xu Jishi's nephew, making the county government hesitant to act.
Li Xuan, standing to the side, also noticed Xu Qi'an.
