The little girl completely forgot that she was wearing a man's clothes at this time. She puffed her cheeks with anger and blocked his way with her face flushed.
"Tell me, where am I young?"
Sure enough, both children and men hate being called young.
The prince was secretly happy, but with a very embarrassed look on his face, he spread his hands and turned his eyes to the leading girl who was still trying to maintain her image as a young master.
"Brother, look at this - to be honest, my brother and I hit it off right away. I really want to have a drink and talk with you. I really don't want to bully you through this. It's just an article. If there's anything to show off, it's not worth it. Just do it with your hands..."
Everyone:…
Suddenly I want to beat him to death!
Even the girl who didn't want to support her sister's bet against this guy at first couldn't help it.
This man is so crazy!
"Brother, you have such a strong tone——"
Originally, I had some affection for this great talent whom I had never met before. Although I was dissatisfied with his disrespect for his teacher Wang Gui, he was still polite in his words. At this time, I couldn't help it anymore.
"I admit that your poems are very good, and I like them very much, but is it a bit too much for you to be so arrogant? Others won't say it, but Mr. Wang Gui, the editor-in-chief of Shilin News, has a very good character. The knowledge is top-notch in the world, and the moral articles are the choice of the moment. Even His Majesty today respects him deeply, why do you have the right to look down upon him like this?"
At this point, the leader, the girl with skin like snow and bright eyes and white teeth, flushed with excitement, her chest heaved, and she said angrily.
"Just write it. Since you said my brother is young and you don't want to bet with him, then bet with me. I'm old enough, right?"
Wang Zi'an glanced at her subconsciously.
Ah, this——
I didn't see it either.
He complained in his heart, but a gentle and tolerant smile appeared on his face.
"Since brother insists on taking a gamble, then I have no choice but to reluctantly play with him. But there must be a referee for this kind of thing-"
Having said this, he took a serious look at the girls opposite who were maintaining their personalities, especially the little girl with a round face, a pair of beautiful big eyes, and a bit of baby fat. He paused for a moment, then shook his head repeatedly with a troubled expression.
"Later, even if I write an article on the level of a famous masterpiece, if some of you insist on saying that I am inferior to others, there is nothing I can do -"
"you--"
Now, the little girl who still had baby fat was so angry. Even if she disliked her for being young, she dared to doubt her own character. It was really unbearable!
Angry on the spot.
"Is this young master the kind of scoundrel you say you are?"
However, his punch was like hitting cotton, because the human-looking guy opposite him was looking at him with a smile on his face and didn't argue with him at all.
While he was freaking out, he accidentally glanced into the distance, and his beautiful eyes suddenly brightened.
"Just wait, I'll call the referee, and I'll make sure you're convinced of your defeat!"
After saying that, he snorted.
Then he stood on tiptoes and waved to the distance with a happy face.
"Grandpa Ouyang, this way -"
Following the girl's gaze, Wang Zi'an saw several old men wrapped in thick furs. The one who waved here first was an old man with a kind face, a walking stick, and white hair and beard.
Seeing the old man, several people on the opposite side quickly came forward to greet him. Especially the little girl who still has baby fat, chattering and chatting beside her. While talking, she looked towards Wang Zi'an.
Wang Zi'an felt at ease that this little girl was most likely speaking ill of him.
When he looked at several old men, the old men also looked at him.
"Is this little friend the legendary young genius Wang Zi'an? Sure enough, it's better to be famous than to meet him. Meeting him is even better. Not only is this little friend outstanding in talent, but he is also extraordinarily handsome. I haven't seen anyone like this little friend in decades. I have such an outstanding young man..."
Before he could get closer, the old man couldn't help but greet Wang Zi'an cheerfully.
Ah, this——
What nonsense are you telling the truth? I’m so embarrassed!
Wang Zi'an immediately smiled shyly and returned the salute seriously.
"Junior Wang Zi'an, I met Mr. Ouyang and he was so complimentary -"
Baby fat girl:......
"Grandpa Ouyang——"
She pulled the old man beside her reluctantly, then raised her face and snorted coldly.
"Of course it's a ridiculous compliment, you don't have to be proud -"
Having said this, she supported the old man next to her with some pride.
"Did you see that the person next to me is a bachelor of Hongwenguan, a master of calligraphy, and the highly respected Grandpa Ouyang Xun? It is your honor to let him be the referee for you——"
After saying that, he added uneasily.
"You are not allowed to say no, if you say no you are guilty..."
Wang Zi'an couldn't help but laugh.
"It's my honor for Mr. Ouyang to come forward. It's really great——"
After saying that, Wang Zi'an saluted the other party again.
"It's so troublesome to Mr. Ouyang..."
Naturally, the old gentleman would not take the young people's feud seriously, so he laughed and nodded.
"That's great. It's just the right time to see my little friend's masterpiece - I don't know how many people are waiting to see your new work in Chang'an City..."
"Grandpa Ouyang——"
Seeing that Ouyang Xun didn't take his complaint seriously at all, the little girl with a round face and a bit of baby fat jumped up and down with anger, and her chubby little face was twisted into a big bun.
"You bastard—cough, little guy, don't make trouble, I have admired the Marquis of Chang'an for a long time—"
Ouyang Xun said happily and patted her head lovingly.
Wang Zi'an smiled, walked to the desk, picked up the brush, and gently dipped it in ink while turning to look at the girl at the head.
"One word of gold, the price is not low. Brother and I hit it off right away, but I really don't want you to be my servant. Why don't you just admit defeat? I will give up the bet in front of you——"
"Just write. If you can write a better article than Mr. Wang Gui, even if I, Li Zhishan, can't afford the money, I will be willing to work for you -"
Wang Zi'an burst into laughter upon hearing this.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. But for the sake of brother and I, I will write a slightly shorter one, so as not to say that I don't give you a chance and appear that I am not kind enough..."
"Who doesn't know how to brag? If you have the ability, just write -"
Seeing that Ouyang Xun, whom she had drawn, refused to give her a platform, the fat girl stood aside unconvinced.
"Okay, just tell me a theme, so you don't lose in the end. If you accuse me of cheating or plagiarism..."
Wang Zi'an dug a hole for her with a smile.
As a result, this girl jumped without hesitation.
"Whoever cheated, whoever cheated is a puppy! If you really lose, if my sister refuses to work as a servant for you, then I will go -"
