"Sishui Prefecture is adjacent to us and we are well matched. How can we take advantage of others' danger!"
Bai Yunbian immediately spoke righteously. Hesitating for a second longer showed disrespect for Xia Jingyun's strength.
"Hey! What Le Xian said is wrong!"
Cheng Jiaoyu hurriedly advised: "It is convenient if we are well-matched. What kind of neighbors are not neighbors? Our two states are adjacent, and they are not less competitive with us! Moreover, after Jinke, when the Ministry of Rites approved the number of sons in each state, we are still the main opponent. ! How great it would be to take this opportunity to attack their arrogance!"
Bai Yunbian stood proudly, "A truly strong man does not bother to attack the weak, but uses his sword to attack the stronger!"
Cheng Jiaoyu looked helpless, "But as we just said, we need to try it first!"
Bai Yunbian felt even more helpless than Cheng Jiaoyu, why are you still so desperate?
What do you want me to do?
You think Surabaya is easy to bully now because that bitch is not here!
That bitch is coming, who can play with him?
There is no doubt that I, Baiyunbian, am a dragon or a phoenix among men, but that bitch is not a human being!
And also stingy!
Now I've bullied Sishui Prefecture while he's away, and I'll have to pay him back twice as much.
Only a fool would go there!
Bai Yunbian shook his head resolutely, "Teach me, there are other ways to try your hand. It doesn't have to be fighting or killing. It can also be a matter of worldliness. For example, let's go talk to the people in Sishui Prefecture and communicate. We will always have one more friend. It’s better than having one more enemy, right?”
Cheng Jiaoyu looked at the white clouds suspiciously, wondering if this kid had lost his soul. He was so timid when going to Sishui Prefecture, and he was not even a little bit arrogant like what he learned in the prefecture.
But then he found an explanation for himself. It seemed that before setting off, Bai Changshier reminded the young master that this happened.
"Lexian, you really don't want to challenge Sishui Prefecture?"
"No!" Bai Yunbian's attitude was extremely determined.
Cheng Jiaoyu scratched his head, "Then we just wait for others to come to us? You are not prepared for this. Do you have any chance of winning?"
Bai Yunbian was also a little confused. Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside, and then several people hurried in.
"Jiaoyu, Brother Lexian, someone went to the Surabaya Guild Hall again!"
Cheng Jiaoyu raised his eyebrows and immediately let out a laugh, "These people are so picky!"
He looked at Bai Yunxian and said with a smile: "But it's just right. We don't need to provoke Sishui Prefecture, but we can also let you see what this big fight looks like. Let's go and have a look!"
After saying that, he pulled Bai Yunbian and shouted to everyone in Yunmengzhou, and together they went to the Sishui Guild Hall across the street.
"He's from Guanglingzhou!"
"They were the first to break the rules in this big brawl!"
Everyone in Yunmeng Prefecture was talking about it, but Bai Yunbian frowned, remembering what happened that day in Chunfengyi.
It seemed that Mr. Shi from the Minister of Rites' Mansion came to greet his cousin that day. However, because of his domineering retinue, he injured his own guard. Xia Jingyun came forward to help, which triggered a series of subsequent stories.
And his cousin seemed to be from Guangling Prefecture.
Is there something wrong with Guanglingzhou's abnormal behavior?
"That's not right. Guangling Prefecture came to challenge Sishui Prefecture in the first battle. The two sides have already fought!"
"That's right, didn't you say that this big fight is only for one time, why is it happening again!"
"If this competition continues, when will it end? Is Guangling Prefecture going to completely break the rules?"
The governors of Yunmeng Prefecture were a little confused, and equally confused were the governors and edicts of Sishui Prefecture.
Xu Jiaoyu from Sishui Prefecture, who led the team, happened to be in the hall. Seeing this, he stepped forward and saluted, "Are you all from Guangling Prefecture?"
The leader opposite was Shi Zijun's cousin, Shi Zixian, the son of the governor of a certain county in Guangling Prefecture. Hearing this, Shi Zixian snorted arrogantly, without even speaking a word, showing no respect at all.
Xu Jiaoyu suppressed his anger and said, "I wonder what you are talking about when you come here?"
"Why does this gentleman have to pretend to be confused and mobilize troops to come here? He must be here for a big fight. Is it possible that he is here to sit and drink tea?"
When Shi Zixian spoke, everyone in Guangling Prefecture burst into laughter.
Xu Jiaoyu suppressed his anger and secretly warned, "I am sir, I am sir, I cannot be angry", "But if I remember correctly, we have already competed once two days ago. According to the rules of the Chunwei competition, There is no need for the two sides to compete anymore.”
Shi Zixian nodded, "I know we have competed, but didn't I just go to compete with Longshouzhou? It was a hard fight and I'm really tired. I came to compete with you and relax!"
"This is too much!"
Xu Jiaoyu finally broke out and pointed at the leader's nose, "Do you think your Guangling Prefecture is great?"
"Hey! Our Guangling Prefecture is really amazing! At least it's more amazing than your Sishui Prefecture!"
Shi Zixian looked like he wanted to be beaten, "What, you don't accept it? It's okay, we are here today to defeat you!"
The laughter in Guanglingzhou became even louder. Even some people who thought it was too much were silent or changed due to the herd mentality and successive victories.
During the Sishui Prefecture's move, Xu Dapeng couldn't help but stand up, "You are just picking on us when Jieyuan is away to take advantage of others' danger! Why pretend to be so arrogant!"
Shi Zixian sneered, "Pick him out? I would like to meet him directly, but he is like a turtle with a hidden head and won't come out!"
"Fart! Brother Gao Yang is busy with something and can't get away!"
Xu Dapeng defended angrily, and Zeng Jimin also walked out of the crowd, frowning, "Your Excellency, you are still competing, and we will continue, but it is not the behavior of scholars of our generation to make rash speculations and insult others."
Zeng Jimin's calm tone and polite words slightly eased the tense atmosphere in the venue due to the scolding, and many people nodded secretly.
But Shi Zixian took a sip, "What are you speculating about? Isn't your Jieyuan in the capital? Is it difficult to come? Why doesn't he come? Isn't that just like a turtle with a hidden head? I What’s wrong with what you said?”
But he also knew that he would give up when he was good, and he didn't give everyone in Sishui Prefecture a chance to talk back, so he said: "But you are right in what you said. If you take the move, your skills are not as good as others. It doesn't matter if you lose, you will be scolded." That’s fine, just take it as you deserve it, and if you want to blame it, blame it on your Jieyuan!”
He looked around, "Who will fight!"
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. For a moment, they all hesitated.
This Mr. Shi is not just an arrogant and shallow person. In the past few days, he has led people from Guangling Prefecture to kill everyone.
In the past, the rules of brawls were to send out five people, and then win three out of five rounds.
This Mr. Shi often won three straight games with one to five. Regardless of his character, he was at least impeccable in terms of talent and learning.
Even in Sishui Prefecture, some people are doubting that even if Xia Jieyuan, who is known as an unparalleled poet, comes to compete with him, he may not be able to win.
After all, writing poetry is only one of them.
Seeing that no one dared to come out, Zeng Jimin and Xu Dapeng stood up almost at the same time, "I'll do it!"
Encouraged by the two, three more people stepped forward one after another.
Shi Zixian didn't panic at all, and hugged him with both arms, "There are only five of you, and I am enough for you!"
Xu Dapeng, a big troll, can't do anything about it anymore. After all, at this time, he wants his subordinates to see the truth.
According to the rules of the Brawl, if one party chooses the content of the competition, then the other party can take the lead in each competition. For example, he can choose the proposition when writing poetry, he can take the lead in playing chess, etc.
Generally speaking, the "home team" will choose the items based on their own advantages. Therefore, everyone in Sishui Prefecture was no exception this time. After a while of discussion, they decided on five competition items: poetry, pairing, Go, and long and short sentences. , Tou Hu.
"Brother Zize, you have the best literary talent. It's up to you to write poems."
"Brother Boyi, you are quick in thinking, try your hand at the right pair."
"There are not many people who write long and short sentences, but I have learned this method before. If people from Guangling Prefecture have not studied this method, they may be able to win the game again."
"I have been a bit leisurely since I was a child. I have studied Go hard and my level is acceptable. I think I can play a game."
"This last sentence means throwing a pot with him. It's just luck. Even if you lose, it won't be a shame."
After everyone in Sishui Prefecture made some arrangements, they suddenly regained their courage, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.
However, after a while, they understood what it means to have a full ideal and a skinny reality.
Just like in another time and space, a certain group planned to [lose Brazil, draw Turkey, win Costa Rica, fight for goal difference and qualify second in the group], but in the end they were directly humiliated in three games.
"Let's study hard again!"
Shi Zixian, who had won three games in a row without giving them any room to use their follow-up methods, laughed and stood up.
Seeing this crushing scene, everyone in Guangling Prefecture suddenly burst into cheers, while the officials in Sishui Prefecture had ashen faces, clenched their fists, and looked humiliated, but helpless.
"If Xia Jieyuan and Mr. Zheng are still here, maybe we can win, right?"
"Be careful! Zheng Tianyu is a rebel, how can he be on par with us!"
"I think Shi is right. Xia Jingyun doesn't dare to come, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Xia is not that kind of person!"
"Then why didn't he come? Just watch us being humiliated like this?"
The people in Yunmeng Prefecture gathered around, looking at the appearance of the people in Sishui Prefecture, they felt a sad feeling in their hearts, but they immediately felt more confident. After all, although Mr. Bai was a bit annoying, he was still very capable.
Cheng Jiaoyu said with emotion: "Perhaps this is why the imperial court tolerates this kind of challenge. Let you young people with lofty ideals know the cruelty of this world in advance and taste the huge difference between victory and defeat. In the end, it is the best way to improve your character." benefit."
A Yunmengzhou official said in a low voice: "It's just that they are not as lucky as us. Their Jieyuan hid like this and let these officials bear the responsibility and humiliation that should have been borne by him. It is really not right. What a gentleman does!”
Shi Zixian listened to the discussions around him, smiled slightly, stood up, and stretched.
"Let's go, this competition is really relaxing! Okay, let's go back and have a drink tonight!"
Everyone in Guangling Prefecture agreed and surrounded Shi Zixian and walked towards the gate of the Sishui Guild Hall.
"Wait a moment!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly spoke.
Everyone in Guangling Prefecture stopped and turned around. Bai Yunbian stepped out with a stern look on his face and said in a deep voice: "On behalf of Yunmeng Prefecture, I challenge you!"
Everyone in Guangling Prefecture blinked, and a group of officials in Sishui Prefecture raised their heads in confusion.
On the side, Cheng Jiaoyu and everyone in Yunmengzhou were dumbfounded.
I've been too busy these days, so the second update will be a little later.
