"You have such a loud voice! How can you judge the selection of talents by the imperial court based on your nonsense? You can become the number one scholar today with just a few couplets. The matter of Enke is not a child's play.
It's better for the old man not to be too loud." A man jumped out and immediately started to accuse the old man.
The old man's words undoubtedly angered many talented people. With just a few words, they were so arrogant and arrogant that the person who could match him must be the current number one scholar. They had studied hard for many years, but they were still not as good as him.
A pair, this is too ridiculous! The old man's words are undoubtedly an insult to the talented people from Jiangnan.
"If it is true as the old man said, has our decades of hard work in Han Chuang been in vain? We are just an old man in the world. He even dares to speak nonsense about the affairs of the court without fear of getting into trouble."
Mr. Zhao stood in the crowd. Although he didn't like the cowardly attitude of the students, he felt that what the old man said was too much. After all, Enke was a major matter for the imperial court and the emperor took it very seriously. How could he let it go?
The old man is talking nonsense. If you say who is the number one scholar, then who is the number one scholar? Wouldn't Enke be in trouble? From now on, literati will no longer need to read the Four Books and Five Classics, just study how to couplets. This is what Mr. Zhao said.
From the perspective of the eyes, it is really far-fetched.
"Brother Lu, you think this old man's tone is too loud." Su Zhengkang also had a smile on his face. This was the first time in his life that he heard someone say such arrogant words. He had read ten
In a few years, he could be regarded as a semi-literate man, so he naturally disagreed with the old man's words.
"I don't think Brother Su might as well take a look at the couplet before making a decision." Lu Zimo smiled quietly, but his eyes were deep and his eyes fell on the first couplet next to the old man. On the surface, it looked like a few simple couplets.
words, but it takes a lot of brainpower to find a neat second couplet.
When Su Zhengkang heard the words, he also looked over. His eyes fell on the words "Lonely and Cold, Widow with an Empty Window", and he couldn't help but look at it. It seems that the background of this old man is definitely not simple. He can write such a couplet.
A person must be full of knowledge. Su Zhengkang looked at the old man. He had an extraordinary bearing. His words and deeds were not like the relaxed and relaxed Jiangnan people. Instead, he had a clean atmosphere and a sense of nobility. What was the origin of this old man?
?
Butler Li looked at the situation below and became more and more tense, and his expression was a bit bad. The old man was really loud. It depends on the time. Enke was coming soon. Most of these men were going to attend Enke. The old man said
I didn't know how to weigh it when I said this. Now it's okay, I got myself into this situation.
"Miss, you'd better come forward. If this continues, I'm really worried that this inn will be destroyed." Looking at the aura of the men, Butler Li felt that it was quite possible.
"That's it for what I said. Whether you believe it or not is up to you." The old man was not annoyed and continued to sit leisurely without even looking at these people.
Liu Meizhuang looked at it. This old man was really stubborn. Even in this situation, he didn't know how to show weakness. After all, he was outnumbered. Looking at the old man, Liu Meizhuang just smiled. Forget it, just treat it as if she had made a move today.
I feel compassion. The old man does have real talent and knowledge, but he doesn’t know that those who understand current affairs are heroes. He doesn’t know how to consider these men’s concern for Enke, so he got himself into the situation he is in now. Anyway, he has earned enough money.
Yes, I have made a lot of money through your old man's help, so I will help you.
"Steward Li, go and prepare some pen and ink."
Butler Li was a little confused. It looked like the young lady was ready to take action, but why did she use pen and ink? Of course, she would never have thought that the eldest lady would write the second line. He still thought that the eldest lady had no literary ink at all. So many people present were right.
Not coming out, let alone an eldest lady who knows nothing about it? I guess the eldest lady had an idea. When Butler Li thought of this, he turned around and walked away.
The stalemate continued downstairs, but Lu Zimo raised his head and glanced upstairs, just in time to see Butler Li spreading out a white paper for Liu Meizhuang, and couldn't help but curl his lips and smile. Could it be said that Liu Meizhuang can be right? If that is the case, then
But it’s incredible.
Butler Li stood aside blankly, dumbfounded. He saw Liu Meizhuang holding a brush in her hand, wandering in the wind. Oh my god, didn't the eldest lady even bother to hold a brush when she was in Liu Mansion? But look at the eldest lady holding a brush.
Her posture was extremely straight, and it was definitely not a coincidence. In just a short while, Liu Meizhuang finished writing the second line, looked at the few words she had written, put down the brush, and clapped her hands with great satisfaction. She glanced at the building.
Next, I happened to catch Lu Zimo's gaze, but he didn't shy away from it at all.
"Steward Li, take this and give it to the old man. It's getting late, so let him leave early." The Liu Mansion has finally gotten better in the past few days, so of course she must take this opportunity to have a good rest.
Butler Li looked at the second couplet on the paper and took it with almost trembling hands. Looking at Liu Meizhuang's eyes, his eyes were even more shocked. He didn't expect the eldest lady to hide it so deeply. He held the couplet tightly in his hand.
Butler Li walked down this blank piece of paper.
The people downstairs couldn't help but be a little curious when they saw Butler Li coming out, holding a piece of white paper in his hand. The old man was also a little surprised, and looked at Butler Li with a bit of confusion in his eyes.
Butler Li walked up to the old man and spread the paper in front of his desk: "Old man, this is the second couplet given to you by my boss. Please see if it is neat."
The old man glanced at the words above, and then his eyes showed admiration, and then he looked up to the sky and laughed. After laughing, he even stood up, looking at the handwriting as if it were a treasure. The handwriting was vigorous and powerful, with a hidden edge, and at first glance
At first glance, it looked like cursive writing, but it felt elegant and unrestrained. However, what surprised him was that the words were a little dragged out, and they looked a bit lazy no matter how they looked at them. The old man glanced at the curious people around him, stretched out his hand to pick up the paper
Spread it out in front of everyone.
On the white paper, it was clearly written: Drifting in the vast sea.
Su Zhengkang's eyes were excited. He looked at Butler Li and then at the person standing upstairs. At the same time, Mr. Zhao also looked over at the same time. When he saw that the person was Liu Meizhuang, he was a little surprised.
.
Liu Meizhuang stood upstairs, with her hands behind her hands, looking down at the people below. He was a handsome young man with extraordinary talents. Who would have thought that the person facing this couplet was actually the owner of the inn. Liu Meizhuang was calm and composed, feeling the old man's hotness.
He looked over immediately, but unexpectedly saw that familiar figure.
