Xu Sima said at this time: "Sir, you see that Xu Qing has been talking for almost an hour, and everyone must be a little tired from listening. You see, Mr. Dong is here just now, why not let Mr. Dong and Xu Qing
Let's have a poetry competition. If Mr. Dong wins, how about letting him sit down?"
Xu Qing used to be just a mere detective, but today he stole the limelight. Naturally, this made Xu Sima very unhappy, and he needed to give this person some obstacles!
The prince of the Jishi family has been familiar with poetry since he was a child, and he is also a famous talent in Yongzhou City. He can compose a poem in ten steps. Xu Qing, who was born as a police officer, has been exposed to the law but certainly not to poetry. If he writes a poem,
A poem or phrase that makes no sense would be extremely embarrassing.
If the son of a poet writes a good poem, no, even if it is not that good, it will become a good work no matter how bad it is in the context of Xu Qing's nonsense poem.
In this case, Mr. Dong can also get the governor's understanding and return to his seat to sit down, and he will surely think of himself. At the same time, he can also severely humiliate Xu Qing, who is in the limelight. This is simply a matter of killing two birds with one stone!
As soon as Xu Sima opened his mouth, the surrounding officials also agreed. Although Xu Qing's words were good, they couldn't keep listening for several hours!
Besides, Xu Sima is of much higher rank than them, who dares to be the first to object?
Dong Hao on the side felt a chill in his heart after hearing what Xu Sima said...Does this stupid young Xu Sima think he is not embarrassed enough?! That's Brother Xu! The number one talent in Yongzhou City! Shen Xubai looked at him.
For one of his poems, he tore up the poem in his hand and threw it into the lotus pond on the spot! And that was Shen Xubai’s best Qixi Festival poem!
There is still a big gap between me and Shen Xubai. Let me compare poetry with this brother Xu?! If I hadn't seen you as Sima, I would have wanted to slap you!
Before Dong Hao could refuse, Su County Magistrate spoke first: "My lords, although Xu Qing has some understanding of the law, he is not good at poetry. I am afraid he will dampen your interest."
Magistrate Su had to decline politely. Xu Qing was a policeman under his daughter, and Mr. Dong across from him was practicing the ways of sages every day. Xu Qing was competing with him in poetry writing. This was not intentional humiliation by Xu Qing.
Xu Qing’s? No! You must refuse!
Xu Sima spoke again at this time: "Since Xu Qing is so proficient in the law, he must be good at poetry. Even if it is a little worse, it doesn't matter. Today is just a game."
Magistrate Su's face was livid at this time. The surrounding officials did not know that Xu Qing was an agent and followed him. Xu Sima, who knew better, was deliberately fanning the flames.
The governor on the side also noticed that something was wrong. From that day when he was in Yong'an County Yamen, he noticed that Xu Sima and Magistrate Su were not dealing with each other. Looking at it today, I am afraid that there is still such a big contradiction. Moreover, not only
However, Su County Magistrate targeted Xu Qing several times.
Xu Qing's eyes when looking at Xu Sima were also full of indifference, and he seemed to be having a serious holiday...
Xu Qing is the one who comes to discuss business with the prince, God knows how far he can go!
Xu Sima actually had a conflict with such a person... The governor felt that he should stay away from Xu Sima in the future, otherwise he might be hit by thunder one day...
When the governor of Ji and the county magistrate Su were about to speak, Dong Hao spoke first.
Dong Hao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "I admit defeat, I admit defeat, my poems are far inferior to Mr. Xu, so I won't humiliate myself..."
Xu Sima smiled and said: "Young Master Dong is so humble. All the adults here have seen Mr. Dong's poems. Why is it so?"
Dong Hao almost hates Xu Sima in his heart at this moment. Do you care if I admit defeat?! If you don't admit defeat now, will you wait until someone writes another poem that will be handed down from generation to generation to slap him in the face?
At this time, Dong Hao quickly said: "No, no, no, Brother Xu is the number one talent in Yongzhou. Brother Xu is a thousand times more talented than me. It's too late for me to study Brother Xu's poems, let alone compete..."
As soon as Dong Hao said these words, the whole audience was shocked.
What did this governor say? The most talented person in Yongzhou?!
Magistrate Su's eyes were full of shock when he looked at Xu Qing at this time. He had also heard about Mr. Xu, the most talented man in Yongzhou, and heard that he had traveled with his own daughter.
In the past, he had thought about whether he could marry his daughter to this well-known Mr. Xu, but unfortunately on the day he was forced to marry, this man didn't even fart, and there was no trace of him. Xu Qing risked offending Xu Qing.
The danger of the family helped him reject the Xu family. However,
After Xu Qing came over, he kept the matter in his stomach and devoted himself to helping Xu Qing get his daughter. After all, his daughter's heart was with Xu Qing and not Mr. Xu. After that, he would take care of Mr. Xu.
I have never understood it again.
At that time, he thought that it seemed that this person was just coveting the beauty of his daughter, and that Mr. Xu was just a superficial person.
But he never imagined that Xu Qing was that Mr. Xu, and the two of them were the same person!
It's right to think so. My daughter doesn't go out at all on weekdays. She doesn't know any of the men except Xu Qing, who is her subordinate. How can a young master Xu who is traveling with my daughter appear out of nowhere? What if he is traveling with his subordinates?
Xu Qing, the young catcher, makes sense.
Moreover, since Xu Qing married... ahem, Mr. Xu has not heard any new stories since he married.
After hearing what the governor said today, Magistrate Su found out that the most talented man in Yongzhou City was actually his son-in-law!
But it shouldn’t be! Xu Qing was just a policeman, and his family didn’t know how to read for several generations. How did he get such a great talent?
Moreover, even if Xu Qing's father had brought a few books to his home, none of the Four Books and Five Classics was just a book of laws and a few children's enlightenment books. It was impossible to cultivate a talented man, let alone the number one talented man in Yongzhou City.
Got it!
But seeing the excited eyes of the governor and the calm expression on Xu Qing's face, he knew that the governor did not admit the wrong person. This was true!
Xu Sima on the side also had a look of disbelief! Isn’t Xu Qing a policeman? When did he become the most talented person in Yongzhou City! Is the threshold for being a policeman so high nowadays?
Could it be that Young Master Dong recognized the wrong person?
The governor was also stunned for a while. In addition to creating shoe shoes and revising laws, he was also the most talented person in Yongzhou City?!
But think about it, the law is so concise and detailed, and it is impossible to do it without excellent literary talent.
No wonder Xu Sima was so calm when he said the poem for the competition. It turned out that he already had a plan in mind!
