A scholar from Jiangxi read Wang Xian's masterpiece aloud and praised it loudly: "Good poem, really good poem."
However, not everyone was making fun of it. Some people asked strangely: "Brother, couldn't Meng Tong write such a poem?"
"That's right, who wrote the second couplet?" Jiangxi Juzi asked loudly: "It seems that your Zhejiang Juzi are not only poor in talent and learning, but also resort to fraud."
Wang Xian laughed and replied calmly: "I haven't finished the poem yet, why are you making the conclusion?"
"It's already written like this, how can we follow it up later?" But everyone didn't believe it.
"Just watch it." Wang Xian laughed, and took the brush from Master Zhang's hand instead of writing on the paper. Instead, he wrote directly on the snow-white wall:
"Tree, tree, tree, with all your threads and threads, how can you let passersby live there? The cuckoo is singing in front, and the cuckoo is singing in the back. Du Yu is singing. One of them said: Brother, the living room is not allowed, and the other said: 'It's better to go home."
Everyone read the first four sentences in succession and saw that what was written turned out to be a wonderful poem, so they cheered in unison. The store owner strongly invited Wang Xian to sign the signature, but Wang Xian did not refuse. He wrote down his name with a pen and took out the
A pearl was handed to Zhang Shishi's hand, and he laughed and said: "Quan will use it as a tool for the girl to polish her pen." It was actually a walking bead worth a thousand gold, which immediately aroused people's amazement.
"I can't do it, brother..." Zhang Shishi was already fascinated by this powerful, wealthy and handsome Master Wang. She threw away the shyness and reserve that made her famous, and her eyes were flowing, making no secret of her intention to stay.
"It's better to go back." Wang Xian smiled casually, waved his sleeves and went downstairs gracefully.
As soon as he walked out of the restaurant, he saw Yu Qian, Lin Rongxing, Li Yu and others hurried over. Wang Xian stopped and looked at them with a smile. Speaking of which, the last time they met was in the autumn of last year, and now they meet again after a long time.
Yu Qian and others were excited and a little nervous because they didn't know how to face Wang Zhongde today.
"Li Taibai said it well. An Neng is able to bend his eyebrows and bend his waist to serve the powerful, which makes me unhappy." Wang Xian laughed and scolded: "Besides, I am not considered a powerful person, so you can do whatever you want."
These words made everyone laugh loudly, and all the embarrassment was swept away. At Wang Xian's insistence, he still said that he was the same year as the greeting. Several people refused at first, but then he laughed at himself and said: "According to this, in a few days,
You jumped over the dragon's gate, but we can't climb any higher?" Then he reluctantly agreed.
While they were talking, Wang Han and others followed him downstairs. Wang Xian smiled and said: "These are the reinforcements I asked people to move, but I didn't expect that the Jiangxi people were too cowarded to use them." Wang Xian happened to watch them in his previous life.
He passed that couplet, but if someone else came up with another couplet, he would most likely be stunned. So before going upstairs, he hurriedly asked Zhou Yong to find Yu Qian. With this kid's wit, no one could easily defeat him. But he didn't.
Thinking that the reinforcements had not arrived, Wang Xian had already taken care of the Jiangxi rebels.
Wang Han and others were acquainted with Yu Qian. After seeing the courtesy, they insisted on asking them to move to another restaurant together to thank Wang Xian and others for their help. Of course, they also wanted to take the opportunity to reconcile with Yu Qian and others. After all, the lesson this time was profound enough.
Let them know that isolation does no good.
Wang Xian didn't care, as long as he saw Yu Qian and a few others, he followed Wang Han to another restaurant opened by Yuyao people. On the bank of the Qinhuai River, the most prosperous place in the world, unless this kind of restaurant is opened by his own people, it is temporarily reserved.
For those who didn't come to the private room, the group went up to the top floor, where authentic Zhejiang dishes were served at low prices. In order to win the prize, they naturally drank Zhuangyuanhong.
Wang Han picked up the wine glass and toasted to Wang Xian: "I was reckless this time. Thanks to brother Zhongde for helping me, I am very grateful."
"It's just a small matter." Wang Xian smiled.
"Of course it's a trivial matter for Brother Zhongde, but for us, it's like rain after a long drought." The other Yuyao Juzi also said: "Ziyu often praises Brother Zhongde for his talent, and we still have some."
We were not satisfied with the problem that we had been holding back for more than ten days, but Brother Zhongde waved it off immediately, which really made me convinced. "I think Kuiyuan is the best person to be Kuiyuan now."
Yuyao Juzi was full of arrogance. Since they had obeyed Wang Xian, they would not allow anyone to be better than him. In their view, except him, anyone else was unacceptable as the number one scholar.
Hearing this, Wang Xian and Yu Qian looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and then said to the Yu Yao Juzi: "First of all, I just happened to hear someone confront this pair, otherwise how could I have the ability to confront it all at once? Secondly, this time in the Spring Festival
I won’t participate.”
"What?" Wang Han and others couldn't believe it, but seeing that Wang Xian didn't seem to be joking, they asked: "You're not afraid of Master Hu's revenge because you beat Mr. Hu, right?"
"That's not the case." Wang Xian smiled and said: "Although Hu Guang is quite powerful, I haven't taken it seriously yet.
"Then why?" Yuyao Juzi asked.
"Because I have changed my military position." Wang Xian said with a wry smile: "Now that I am working in Beizhen Fusi, I naturally cannot participate in the examination."
"Beizhen Fusi?" Wang Han and others' expressions changed, and they were speechless. They understood where Wang Xian had the courage to despise Hu Guang, but the world of scholars and spies was so black and white that they really didn't know what he was doing.
Why should we degenerate and fall into evil ways when fame and fortune are within easy reach?
"There is nothing we can do about it." Li Yu is Wang Xian's township party member, and his family is a high-ranking official in the court. He is most aware of Wang Xian's current status. Even the elders of the clan assert that they are the only ones who can marry Wang Xian.
Guarantee of the future prosperity of the family. Seeing that Wang Xian was a little embarrassed, he immediately stood up and smoothed things over: "Brother Zhongde conquered the desert from Longbei and made great military exploits. The emperor personally named him Jinyiwei Qianhu, and sent him as an imperial envoy to handle cases in Shanxi.
We wiped out Zhang Chun, the chief envoy with heinous crimes. Brother Zhongde returned to the court after completing his merits. He was appointed by the emperor as the governor of Fusi, Beizhen, and was in charge of the imperial edict. Haven't you heard of these great achievements?"
Wang Han and others were dumbfounded. They originally thought that Wang Xian was just an officer of the Zhenfu Division, but who would have thought that he was actually the leader of the North Town Fu Division... When he thought that he and the spy chief were actually calling each other brothers, they couldn't believe it.
All the others, Yao Juzi, were frightened for a while, and said to themselves that it was a good thing that they never said disrespectful words, otherwise they would really not be able to sleep at night.
"It's just an errand, nothing to make a fuss about." Seeing that they were restless and wanted to get up to greet each other again, Wang Xian looked at Li Yu helplessly and said to himself, "You can't be more reserved, you might scare the children: "Let's just say
It's fine if we are of the same age." Li Yu shrugged his shoulders and lowered his head to drink.
The few people had no choice but to obey the Lord, but then they inevitably became reserved in their conversation, which made Wang Xian feel waning. After drinking for a while, he stood up and left. Wang Xian left, and Yu Qian and others naturally did not stay. Wang Han and others
Although people tried to persuade her to stay, she had no choice but to send her downstairs and say goodbye.
After bidding farewell to Yuyao Juzi, Wang Xian, Yu Qian, and Lin Rongxing, they walked along the Qinhuai River in the beautiful night. They were all their own people here, and the atmosphere was much more natural. Thinking of what happened just now, Wang Xian couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that
In the eyes of others, I am no longer a scholar."
"Brother Zhongde, why did you say this?" Li Yu said with a smile: "They just feel that your status today is unattainable, so they are cautious. It has nothing to do with whether you are a scholar or not."
"That makes sense." Lin Rongxing nodded in agreement: "As long as you have a clear conscience, brothers know that you are the one."
Yu Qian also smiled and said: "Yes, with your second brother's unparalleled charm, the world should revolve around you, why do you still need to care about what others think?"
"Oh?" Wang Xian touched his chin and couldn't help laughing: "Xiao Qian, are you trying to flatter me?"
"Of course." Yu Qian said with a smile on his face: "It would be great if my second brother can feel my sincerity."
"Hahahaha..." Wang Xian burst into laughter and said, "It turns out that Xiang Zhuang danced his sword with the intention of Pei Gong." A burst of laughter swept away the slightly dull atmosphere just now.
Wang Xian then got down to the topic and said to his uncle: "I thought you would stay at home, but you ended up staying in the guild hall instead."
"Haha." Lin Rongxing said with a smile: "Everyone in the guild hall is of the same age, so it is very lively every day, which is also good for business."
"That's true." Wang Xian looked at Yu Qian and said, "But this kid must think that you are not blessed even though you are blessed."
"Look what the second brother said." Amidst the laughter, Yu Qian scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Dad and Mrs. Wang are on guard against thieves, so I don't dare to get into trouble."
"Then you haven't missed Silver Ling either," Wang Xian spat.
"Second brother, you all know this?" Yu Qian praised: "He is worthy of being the person in charge of Fusi in Guanbei Town."
"I'm not going to spy on my own family." Wang Xian scolded with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, it's Lingxiao." Yu Qian suddenly said: "This little traitor, it's in vain that I always talk down to her."
"Haha, Lingxiao should stay closer to me." Wang Xian smiled and said with a straight face: "We will enter the Gongyuan in a few days. You guys must be careful."
"Haha, don't worry. Han Chuang has been studying hard for more than ten years just for this moment. We must be extra careful." Several people didn't understand what he meant at once, thinking it was just an ordinary warning.
"That's not what I meant..." Wang Xian said worriedly: "I mean, you may encounter some situations due to my involvement." This is the reason why he came to see a few people: "Actually, you can
It would be best to give up this imperial examination and take it again in three years..."
Several people couldn't believe their ears and couldn't accept it at all, even if these words came from Wang Xian's mouth. Lin Rongxing blurted out and asked: "Is it because you offended Hu Guang?" Based on their relationship with Wang Xian, this
It would be most appropriate for him to ask.
"I just said that I don't care about Hu Guang." Wang Xian shook his head and said. He still knew something about the ministers in the court. He knew that although Hu Guang was known as the master of all officials after Xie Jin, he was also the leader of civil servants.
First of all, he is not as bold as Jie Jin. On the contrary, he is a little timid and tends to follow the crowd. He is a popular person on the prince's side, and he has the terrifying Beizhen Fusi in his hands. Most likely, Academician Hu will try his best to make friends with him.
He would never turn against his son just because he taught him a lesson.
