Seeing the fight begin, the audience in and around the venue were all excited. However, almost everyone was not optimistic about Yunze.
After all, Yunze had a good reputation and Danyang City was known as a prodigal and a loser. Compared with the four great talents who had been famous for a long time, he was just looking for abuse.
As soon as the maid brought up the lottery box, everyone booed Yunze, and even more, taunted him.
"Yunze, with your little literary talent, you should admit defeat as soon as possible. Don't lose so badly that you won't be able to get off the stage, haha..."
"It's just that I lost so badly that I don't have the face to see anyone...come down...haha..." Todoroki's laughter resounded throughout the audience.
Yunze just glanced at the commotion and pretended not to hear it. Luo Yunniang and Luo Yunxi in the audience looked at Yunze with worried faces and held their hands tightly.
Ye Ziyan frowned and looked at everyone, with anger flashing in her eyes. Luo Qingcen was even more furious. Most of those who dare to make noise are trolls hired by the Zheng family.
Just because they wanted to embarrass Yunze, the Zheng family took action before the competition even started.
The ten referees on the stage didn't pay much attention to the booing from the audience. They didn't even hear it in front of them. All of them smelled the wine in their hands, with a look of intoxication on their faces.
"Good wine. I heard that this wine was brewed by Yunze. I didn't expect that this boy has such ability... I don't know how talented he is..." Wu'an Hou Tongming took a sip of the wine, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes. Appreciated.
"My lord, what do you think..."
Although the title of Marquis Anwu is not low, it is still half a step lower than Song Rui, Prince of Danyang County. One is a county king and the other is a marquis. In terms of title, a county prince is equivalent to a marquis.
But the prince is a royal family after all, and his status is still higher than that of a marquis. Even if Song Rui is an idle prince now, Marquis Wu An would not dare to offend him.
"It is indeed a good wine, and that little one is pretty good..." Song Rui took a sip of the white wine and looked at Yun Ze appreciatively.
Although Yunze's reputation in Danyang City was not very good, Yunze's performance during this period impressed the prince.
"Well, it is indeed a good wine. I have never drunk such a good wine before... That boy has some skills!" Cheng Ying, the messenger of Suibu, also nodded.
Luo Xuan glanced at his daughter, then at Yunze, and shook his head helplessly, without expressing any opinion, but judging from the way he was drinking, he must have liked the high alcohol content.
However, he is worried now. His daughter is obviously deeply in love with that boy, but he has a family. How can he let his daughter be the concubine for that prodigal son? ?
Luo Xuan would never agree to this, and he didn't even want to get involved in this literary fight, but he was a daughter slave. I can't help my daughter acting coquettishly and cutely.
But thinking that his daughter's soul was about to be taken away by Yunze, Luo Xuan looked at Yunze with eyes that were about to burst into flames. I'm afraid my cabbage will be eaten by pigs.
Just when all the judges were praising the drinks and the food in front of them, the maid walked up to Yunze with the lottery box.
"Master, please draw lots..." Wen Dou appeared first. Relatively speaking, he had a certain advantage. Of course, there were also certain risks.
If the two sides are of similar strength, the one who comes out first will take advantage of it. However, if the strength is not good, going out first means making a fool of yourself first.
"There's no need to draw lots, let them come first..." Yunze waved his hand, his face full of indifference, but his plain expression looked completely different in the eyes of everyone.
Everyone was stunned, their eyes filled with disbelief. Is this kid too arrogant? He also asked others to come first, didn't he want to take advantage of it?
Moreover, his expression looked so unbeatable. Someone who was unhappy immediately sneered: "I think this guy is afraid of embarrassment, so he let the four talented people go first."
"Isn't it certain that he will be embarrassed? What's the difference between being embarrassed first and being embarrassed later... It's better for him to be embarrassed first so that the literary fight ends faster."
"Haha..." A mocking voice sounded, and the maid holding the lottery box on the stage didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Okay... If you don't want to smoke, then let's start. Brother Zhucai, you come first..." Lu Lun snorted coldly, with disdain on his face.
The talented man who was called "Zhu Cai" nodded and walked out. This man was slightly fat and quite handsome. He was dressed in a white scholar's uniform, which made him look a bit like a celebrity.
He looked at Yunze with a sarcastic expression.
"Mr. Yun, it's still too late for you to admit defeat now. At worst, the content of Wen Dou's agreement will be invalidated. You only need to hand over Wanghu Restaurant to the Zheng family."
Yunze frowned and looked down at Zheng Ying, who looked proud. This is their purpose.
In the battle book of the civil war, it was written that the loser had to admit defeat in public, and that he would no longer be able to write poetry, let alone take part in the imperial examination. Do not do anything related to your name.
This is definitely the highest punishment for the four great talents and those who want to gain fame and success.
The four great talents and the Zheng family hired so many high-status referees just to make sure the content of the bet was confirmed. Don't give Yunze a chance to stand up. This was regarded as ending Yunze's path to fame and officialdom.
Their methods were neither vicious nor ruthless. They simply would not give up until Yunze was beaten into dust.
However, they didn't know that Yunze didn't care about success or fame, nor did he care about being tested for it. This is not his ambition.
Now, Zhu Cai said this because he wanted to retreat and take the Wanghu Restaurant away from Yunze.
The business of Wanghu Restaurant was booming today, coupled with the popularity of high-strength wine, which made the Zheng family think of taking it as their own. It is estimated that they have just discussed it with the four great talents.
Or perhaps they gave great benefits to the four talented men to seize the Wanghu Restaurant in order to preserve Yunze's desire to obtain fame and success.
For the four great talents, Yunze gave up and they also gained fame. The only pity was that Yunze was not beaten into the dust. But the benefits are not small.
"Admit defeat... I think it's you who should admit defeat... If you want to admit defeat, I don't mind saving you some face. Otherwise, your loss will be too ugly, so don't blame me for not reminding you!"
Yunze said to Zhu Cai playfully. His tone not only shocked Zhu Cai, but also shocked the people around him. How could this kid have the confidence?
He even said that he was saving face for others. This was so fucking crazy. Who did he think he was? Some people even wanted to laugh out loud, and Zhu Cai was so angry that he was shaking all over.
All the referees on the referee's bench looked stunned. Is this guy so arrogant? The ten referees shook their heads and decided on Yunze's position.
"Arrogant people, it seems like they have no talent at first glance, they will probably be tortured miserably!"
"Okay... Since you are asking for death, I won't talk nonsense to you. In the first game, we will compete in piano skills and folk music... The rules are very simple. In addition to the referee's judgment, there is also the judgment of other people in the field who is better. No matter who wins."
Zhu Cai said coldly.
