Chapter 62 The beginning of the game

The dragon boat rushed away quickly, and the starting point was quieter. Of course, this was just compared to where the dragon boat passed by, and the noise was still the same.

The prefect and the others stood on the platform and looked out, giving advice and joking to the people around them.

"…The Zhu family's dragon boat is the first..."

"…Wangjiangshun's dragon boat is also good this time, I think it's hopeful..."

While joking, the prefect suddenly said that he apologized for convenience. Everyone didn't care, and someone asked to accompany him so he went with him.

There are three urgent needs, and naturally the clean room was installed here. Even if the temporary arrangement was temporarily arranged, it was very clean. Not everyone was crowded on the shore to watch dragon boats, and many people came to join in the fun. Therefore, many people were standing or sitting in the open space by the river. When they saw the prefect coming, they all bowed and greeted him.

Those who can come here are the famous gentry and wealthy families in Chang'an City. These people must be familiar with the officials. The prefect greeted them with a smile.

“…Fu Sanye has bet this time…”

"…Master Zhang Qi, I saw that Mr. Zhang was coming too?...I'm so big."

"…Kun Guangyan, I haven't seen each other for a long time. I have to talk about it if I have free time..."

"…ah, this is…General Guo…”

Guo Huaichun, standing among the people, hurriedly saluted and said, "I dare not, I just take off my armor and return to the field."

The prefect Li smiled and said, "Even if he has removed his armor, he has fought for the country. How can he be honored? General Guo is too humble."

Guo Huaichun returned home as a military general, and the prefect Li was a civil servant's parents. He didn't have much contact with each other in the past, so he was not very familiar with him. He nodded and said polite words to the prefect Li left.

Guo Huaichun breathed a sigh of relief, and someone next to him laughed.

"Why do you look so scared?" he said.

Guo Huaichun smiled bitterly and said, "We are crude people, so I am really afraid of talking to these literati."

Although it was said to the public that Guo Huaichun was suffering from injuries and resigned, everyone had privately found out that Guo Huaichun was in conflict with his superiors and offended the local political and pacifier Li Mao. This was a civil servant in charge of military affairs and politics, and had the power of life and death against military generals. Li Mao himself had a precedent for killing military generals. After the killing was investigated and killed, he was only at two levels of official generals... His mentor was the current prime minister Wang Lieyang, and the military general Qin Tan Gong had to look at some face.

Because he offended Li Mao, there is no war now, and he cannot defeat it with merit. He is not young anymore and the children are still in the army. It is better to just resign and leave, so as not to cause trouble and affect the family.

"Mr. Guo, don't be afraid... the top scorer will be released soon. In the future, it will be a civil servant, and the party will be changed." A man laughed and laughed.

These words made several people laugh, and Guo Huaichun's face looked even more ugly.

"Don't joke." He coughed lightly, "The child is just talking wildly."

"Are you crazy? You dare not say that." Mr. Zhang Qi smiled. He had a good relationship with Guo Huaichun. "The prefect said it personally. That's called the young man's blood. I'm sorry."

Guo Huaichun was stunned and looked surprised: "Master, Master? Why... like him?"

Others babbled and spoke one after another.

"Old Guo, don't you know?"

"Your son-in-law's Cuju competition is in the limelight."

"I don't know if the top scorer can pass the exam... Cuju may be the top scorer."

Guo Huaichun was confused when he heard this, "I just came back and just caught up to watch the dragon boat race... No one told me this." He looked a little angry again, and probably knew why no one told him this... Xue Qing was not a happy thing for Mrs. Guo.

"Is Cuju? Just having fun... what's the use?" He laughed dryly and blew, then hurriedly bowed and said goodbye and left in a hurry.

Mr. Zhang Qi didn't stop shouting, shook his head and said, "...I'd like to tell him that the prefect praised the top scorer for the exam as a bloody person. He could go and say good things to Mr. Qingxia and let Xue Qing join the society, why did he leave?"

The people next to him were a little curious. They heard about Xue Qing's claim to be the top scorer, but they stopped paying attention to it since then. It was nothing more than studying... It was time to watch jokes when they failed the exam.

"I want to study with Mr. Qingxia."

"If you want to take the top scorer, you must be the disciple of Mr. Qingxia."

Everyone said one after another.

I’ve been worshipped, Mr. Qingxia won’t accept it. Mr. Zhang Qi thought to himself that he didn’t know what happened in the society that day. He only knew who was idle and had nothing to do to pay attention to this. Zhang Liantang said it casually yesterday.

However, there is no need to take this kind of thing as an example. Mr. Zhang also laughed and said, "Master Guo must have his own ideas, so we don't have to worry about it."

As we were laughing, cheers came from the front, the first round of the dragon boat race came to an end.

"Let's go, take a look."

“…It must be Wangjiangshun’s number one again.”

Everyone greeted and laughed and walked towards the crowd on the shore, and many people ran around holding a few pictures.

“…….. Master Wang Ningchun wrote a poem…”

“…..Xu Yong wrote a poem…”

Literary and poets who were watching the dragon boat race also began to write poems and lyrics. These new works will be teleported out to places where crowds gather. Countless people rushed to surround and appreciate them. During this period, many people read aloud, which caused another kind of excitement.

The third floor of Liuyuntai is much quieter than the outside room. There are a few people in the hall either looking at the river or lying at the wine and food on the table. The others are looking forward to it. Suddenly, a man turned around from the railing.

"I have it." He said.

The hall suddenly became active. Yang Jingchang, who was whispering with Xue Qing back to his seat and looked over with some interest. He heard the man pace and recite a few poems while reading. There was a loud applause and cheering in the hall. Someone on the side had quickly copied it down and ran outward. The sound of footsteps ran up and down several floors.

“…Hsien Master Xi’s new work…”

The shouts sounded, and then there was a hustle and bustle. This was the people in the halls talking about new poems.

"…Who says that during the Dragon Boat Festival..." Yang Jingchang muttered and looked at Xue Qing, "What do you think?"

Xue Qing shook his head and said, "I don't understand."

Well, he is not bad at reading a lot of books at his age, but poetry is more difficult than reading. Yang Jingchang smiled and said, "I don't understand it very much. In short, it's just singing and dancing to peace."

"Who will be disappointed at this time?" Xue Qing smiled, "It's better to be lively and happy."

Someone coughed next to the words.

"If you don't understand, don't say it lightly. Everyone is inspired by the feelings. They are not the literati who embellishes peace. So why are they all done?"

After all, it was unhappy to say the wrong thing. Xue Qing turned around and looked behind him. A man in his green shirt, who was about forty years old, stood in the corner... Everyone liked to find quiet places for writing poetry, which was so exhausting.

"Yes, the boy was wrong." She said, with a sincere expression.

Yang Jingchang smiled and bowed, saying, "Nephew Lin, I haven't heard the masterpiece yet, I'm just talking lightly." When Xue Qing introduced, "This is Lin Xianlin's scholar."

Compliments or sarcasm. Lin Xiucai nodded, with a little arrogant. He had confidence in his writing, and said, "I have a few sentences to read..." He looked at Xue Qing again, "...I'm afraid this young man won't understand."

Xue Qing smiled bitterly, be cautious.

Yang Jingchang laughed and made a smooth move, but the scholar Lin just refused to leave, so he simply sat down on Yang Jingchang's side and read out the two lines of poetry he had made to appreciate with Yang Jingchang, and by the way, he ignored the ignorant younger generations here.

The quiet and peaceful conversation between the two was interrupted. Xue Qing looked calm and smiled. Yang Jingchang was quite helpless. However, the father of Lin Xiucai had a good relationship with him and it was not easy to put down his face. He was thinking of getting up and saying goodbye, but someone stood up outside the hall door.

"Xue Qing." The boy shouted.

Xue Qing and Yang Jingchang looked at him and saw Liu Chunyang with almond eyes, phoenix eyebrows, jade-colored long gown standing there.

Seeing them, Liu Chunyang waved and said, "Xue Qing, come here."

Did you go there? Xue Qing sat down without moving.

Yang Jingchang recognized the young master of the Liu family. He thought that Lin Xiucai was annoying, and the young man was still interesting to play with the young man, so he said, "You go and have a look."

Lin Xiucai also glanced at him and said, "The child went downstairs to watch the dragon boat racing... This is the place to write poetry, but you don't understand."

Yang Jingchang smiled apologetically at Xue Qing helplessly, and Xue Qing also smiled and stood up to leave.

He walked to Liu Chunyang and said, "What's the matter?"

Liu Chunyang approached her face and almost approached her face. Her high nose bridge hit Xue Qing's nose... Well, this wealthy young man is so well raised. Like Jia Baoyu, Xue Qing avoided her slightly.

"...If you dare to proclaim that you are my brother-in-law, I will break your third leg." Liu Chunyang whispered.
