Chapter 270, with the plug-in in hand, who am I afraid of?
"Don't worry, my question is very difficult. Whether Liu Jin has real talent or knowledge, you will know after a try."
Li Zhen is also quite confident in this, because she knows a very difficult match from her grandfather. Her grandfather is a minister, second only to the senior officials of the Six Ministers. This knowledge is naturally extraordinary, and he can be difficult to solve.
The pair living with my grandfather is by no means an ordinary pair.
"If Liu Jin can't answer this question, won't your sweetheart be embarrassed?"
Zhang Ying thought about it and said with a smile.
"Bah~"
"How can he be my sweetheart? I think he is your sweetheart, right?"
Li Zhen mumbled softly, her face turning red as she spoke.
"You still said no. You looked red in the face. It seems like it was love at first sight. I would say that although Liu Jin is a good-looking person and a son of an elite, if he wants to be worthy of our sister Li Zhen,
, at least it won’t be possible until next spring.”
Zhang Ying is quirky and has a sharp mouth. She talks to the people around her with a smile on her face.
"That's right, that's right~ Our sister Zhen is both talented and beautiful, and ordinary people are not worthy of it."
"Yes, this Liu Jin is still just a scholar, far from it."
When the others heard this, they immediately started joking with Li Zhen.
"Okay, you actually came to arrange me to see how I will deal with you later."
When Li Zhen heard this, her face immediately turned red and she said angrily. At the same time, she looked at Liu Jin from the corner of her eye.
"Okay, okay, everyone, please stop making fun of Li Zhen. You should hurry up and give the question to Liu Jin. I am also very curious about whether Liu Jin has real talent and learning. Is this master's disciple?
It’s true to its name, but it’s just an illusion.”
The eldest Xu Waner spoke, and everyone stopped immediately, everyone smiled and waited for Li Zhen to ask the question.
Li Zhen's face turned red. She looked at Liu Jin from the corner of her eye. After thinking for a while, she mustered up the courage to stand up and said, "I heard that Mr. Liu Jin is a son of a noble man. He must have learned a lot and is very knowledgeable. I have a match here."
I need to ask for advice."
When Liu Jin heard this, he was slightly startled. He had just arrived, so why was he provoking someone? The other party started attacking him as soon as he arrived.
There was only Xu Guangzuo on the side. He was older and had come from before. When he saw Li Zhen's appearance, he couldn't help but smile. This person's good looks were indeed an advantage. It seemed that Li Zhen had already set his sights on Liu Jin.
, otherwise I wouldn’t have taken the initiative to stand up and take Liu Jin’s exam.
"Ashamed~ Ashamed. I am just lucky enough to hear a few words from an expert. I cannot be considered a disciple of an expert. This knowledge is also very shallow."
When Liu Jin stood up, he naturally had to be humble. Liu Jin never said that he was a disciple of a master. This must be corrected again. This disciple of a master is not that easy to be. If you can infer this hat, try to reject it.
hat.
"Young Master Liu is too modest. Who doesn't know in the capital that Mr. Liu is very knowledgeable and talented? He knows everything about astronomy and geography. I guess this mere pair will not be able to stop you Mr. Liu."
When talking to Liu Jin, Li Zhen lowered her head slightly and her face turned redder.
"My first couplet is, Wangjiang Tower, Wangjiang Tower, Wangjiang Tower looks at the river flow, the river tower lasts forever, and the river flows forever."
Li Zhen's grandfather recently had a chat with a close friend who had returned from Sichuan. In his spare time, he also talked about the customs and customs of Sichuan. There is such an ancient absolute that has been passed down for a long time in Wangjiang Tower in Chengdu, Sichuan.
The poet Xue Tao looked at the river and came up with this eternal beginning. However, no matter how much he thought about it later, he could not come up with a perfect second line, so it has been spread in Chengdu, attracting many literary talents.
Go, but no one has been able to come up with the second line so far.
Li Zhen's grandfather knew about this pair, so he had been thinking hard about it, but he couldn't figure it out either. Li Zhen found out about it, so she also took it to test Liu Jin.
Upon hearing Li Zhen's first couplet, Zhang Lun, Zhu Xizhong, Xu Guangzuo and others were immediately dumbfounded.
Let me tell you, why is it so difficult? Pairs of this level are simply not something we can play. Although everyone has been studying since childhood, they have learned a lot of things in this area.
But they are all the children of rich and noble families. If they don’t rely on this to earn a living, their level is actually very limited. It’s okay for everyone to play simple ones. Such difficult pairs are simply embarrassing people.
"Awesome~ This is an eternal absolute, and it cannot be corrected without a flash of inspiration."
Xu Waner said to Li Zhen who returned to the team, this pair is really difficult, very difficult, she couldn't think of it for a while, and she immediately knew that this pair was not an ordinary pair.
"Of course it's difficult. This is absolute for the ages. Let me tell you..."
Li Zhen smiled, then told the origin of this pair.
"So that's it. Now it's hard for your sweetheart. You can see that he has a sad face."
When Zhang Ying heard this, she immediately smiled and joked with Li Zhen.
"You still talk about me~"
When Li Zhen heard this, her face turned red. She looked at Liu Jin out of the corner of her eye and saw that Liu Jin was frowning and walking slowly, seeming to be thinking about the second line of the couplet.
"Did I think it was too difficult? This is an eternal truth. So many talented men of letters can't figure it out. Even if he has some talent, I'm afraid he won't be able to figure it out in a while."
"If he can't think of this, and in front of so many people, it will be ugly for him."
"If I had known earlier, I would have just come up with something simpler."
Seeing Liu Jin's trouble, Li Zhen couldn't help but think so, and then shook her head slightly, feeling a little confused in her heart.
Xu Waner on the side also looked at Liu Jin from time to time. If this talented Liu could really answer the question, he would be really amazing. It would be absolute through the ages. It requires not only talent, but also a flash of inspiration and a good hand.
Pure and flawless, that's what it means.
"This is too difficult, too difficult~"
Zhu Xizhong couldn't help but shook his head and said, it's really not that difficult. His mind was blank and he couldn't think of anything at all.
"I don't know where Li Zhen came to know about such a pairing. Now I'm really stumping Brother Liu."
Zhang Lun also nodded and said.
"Brother Liu is not good at these things. I think Brother Liu may really not be able to answer it. Moreover, I think this pair is not something that ordinary people can solve. In the spring of next year, when all the talented people from the Ming Dynasty gather here,
I don’t think anyone can answer it.”
Even Xu Guangzuo felt that Liu Jin couldn't answer it, it was too difficult, and he didn't think highly of Liu Jin.
As for Liu Jincai, he was really thinking about it, because he really couldn't figure it out himself. This pairing was so amazing. Even Liu Jin, who came from a later generation, had seen many, many classic pairs, like the absolute one in Tang Bohu's Dian Qiuxiang.
, but he really had no impression of this couplet and didn’t know the second line.
"Now I can only look at my golden finger~"
Liu Jin thought so in his heart, so with a thought, he connected to his golden finger in his mind. After searching for a while, he actually found it. There was actually such content in the golden finger.
Not only does it have content related to making pairs and guessing crossword puzzles, it even has content related to the imperial examination. Just spend some points and Golden Finger will directly present the relevant content to Liu Jin's mind.
"Haha, it's indeed a golden finger. I'm worried about the upcoming imperial examination. I didn't expect it to have this function. It seems Qiu Wei doesn't have to worry."
"Well, I read so many Four Books and Five Classics in vain earlier. If I had known it had this function, I wouldn't have read it."
At this time, Liu Jin's heart was already bursting with joy. In order to get the right match, he actually found a way to cope with the imperial examination. With the golden finger, it should not be difficult to easily pass the imperial examination.
Liu Jin spent hundreds of points, and soon he had the second line of this pair in his mind, and several of them appeared at once. Liu Jin couldn't help but sigh, a gold finger is a gold finger, it's awesome.
However, Liu Jin was not in a hurry to figure it out right away, but continued to ponder with a frown on his face. This pair was not an ordinary pair, and he couldn't figure it out too quickly, so he had to pretend that it was difficult for him to figure it out.
"Mr. Liu, if you can't apologize, just admit defeat. Don't waste everyone's time. Li Zhen won't blame you if you can't apologize anyway."
After waiting for a stick of incense, seeing that Liu Jin still couldn't apologize, Zhang Ying stood up and said with a smile.
When she spoke, she also deliberately brought Li Zhen with her, which made Li Zhen's face turn redder. At the same time, she couldn't help but talk to Zhang Ying.
"Brother Liu, just admit defeat. This pair is too difficult."
Zhang Lun also laughed and said.
"Yes, yes, it's too difficult. It doesn't matter if you admit defeat. As long as you come up with a pair that they can't match, it's considered even."
Zhu Xizhong also suggested.
When Liu Jin heard what everyone said, he couldn't help but smile and said: "This pair is indeed difficult. I have never been able to think of a perfect pair. I am really ashamed."
"Brother Liu, it's normal that you can't think of it. This pair is too difficult."
Xu Guangzuo consoled him.
"Yeah, it's too difficult. I guess they can't figure it out either."
Zhang Lun followed.
As for Li Zhen, she was slightly disappointed. She still hoped that Liu Jin could confront him, because this would not damage his image in his heart, but thinking about it, his grandfather couldn't forgive him, and there were many literary talents.
I can't apologize. It's normal for Liu Jin not to apologize.
Only Xu Waner understood the meaning of Liu Jin's words, so she stood up and said: "So, Mr. Liu came up with the second couplet, but he just felt that this second couplet was not perfect?"
When everyone heard Xu Waner's words, they were stunned for a moment, and then carefully recalled what Liu Jin had just said. Liu Jin didn't seem to really say that he was wrong, he just said that he couldn't think of a perfect answer, which meant that he had already thought about it.
I came up with the second line, but I just don’t think it’s perfect.
"Brother Liu, have you figured out the second couplet?"
Zhang Lun said slightly surprised.
As for Li Zhen, her beautiful eyes widened slightly, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she even admired Liu Jin a little more. It was absolutely certain that he could come up with the second line.
"I thought of a second line, but this line may not be perfect."
Liu Jin smiled and said, and then said his second line.
"My second line is, Yin Yue Well, Yin Yue Ying, Yin Yue Well Yin Yue Ying, Yue Jing Ten Thousand Years, Yue Ying Ten Thousand Years."
Hearing Liu Jin's second line, everyone couldn't help but taste it carefully. After a careful pairing, they couldn't help but nod their heads. It was so neatly done.
"That's right~"
Xu Wan'er's eyes flashed with light and she couldn't help but say.
"Miss Xu, thank you. As soon as you hear the name, you can tell that Wangjiang Tower is a famous building. Logically speaking, this couplet should also be a famous place. The Yinyue Well in my second couplet is also
If it doesn’t seem right, it won’t look perfect.”
Liu Jin smiled and said what he felt was lacking.
When Xu Waner heard this and thought about it carefully, she couldn't help but look at Liu Jin with admiration again. This pair often not only pay attention to neatness, but also have opposite artistic conceptions and other requirements.
Wangjiang Tower is the Ming Tower in Chengdu, Sichuan, and Yinyue Well is simply an ordinary well. The two are naturally not right. Liu Jin feels that it is not perfect, which makes sense.
But purely from the perspective of pairs, Liu Jin came up with the second line.
"Master Liu is indeed knowledgeable and talented, Wan'er admires him."
Xu Wan'er saluted Liu Jin and expressed her admiration. She could definitely think of such a thing after a long time, and she was definitely a talented person. She thought she was very talented, but she still couldn't think of it and felt inferior.
"Miss Wan'er, thank you very much. My match is not perfect."
Liu Jin replied humbly.
Li Zhen on the side looked at Liu Jin with gleaming eyebrows. He not only matched the second couplet, but also thought about perfecting the pair.
"You come up with the question."
After thinking about it, Li Zhen also said to Liu Jin that Liu Jin had answered her question and now it was time for her to answer Liu Jin's question. When she thought of this, she couldn't help but lower her head.
My heart was like a deer stumbling around, very uneasy.
She was looking forward to Liu Jin's questions, but she was also afraid that Liu Jin's questions were too difficult and if she couldn't answer them, she would be defeated by Liu Jin. She had a lot of thoughts in her mind, and her thoughts were very complicated.
Hearing Li Zhen's words, Liu Jin smiled. At this time, a gust of breeze blew, causing ripples on the originally calm lake. Then his eyes lit up and he said: "Let me also make a pair. The first couplet is green water."
There is no need to worry, but the wind wrinkles the face."
When everyone heard Liu Jin's pairing and looked at the lake surface that had just been blown by the wind, they couldn't help but give Liu Jin a thumbs up in their hearts. This pairing was so appropriate for the occasion.
When Xu Waner heard this, her eyes flashed with light, and then she frowned and began to think hard. As for Li Zhen, her mind was completely blank. How could it be so difficult? She just thought of it. I don't know if it was good or not.
Make it simple so that people can easily step down?
She couldn't think of a second line for such a fitting couple.
