"The talented scholar Lingyun Shiyongxue...um..." Gu Xifeng frowned and fell into deep thought.
"The talented man has the ambition to reach the clouds and compose poems to praise the snow. This pairing is quite simple. The second line is not difficult to come up with. What matters is the quality of the second line." Gu Xifeng recalled what he and Uncle Sun were studying.
"A talented man can compare with a beautiful woman, Lingyun can compare with Ta Yue, poetry can be compared with poems, what about Yongxue? vs. Yaofeng?" His mind was quickly searching through his little knowledge about couplets.
"When put together, it's like a beautiful woman stepping on the moon and rocking the wind!" Gu Xifeng's face was filled with joy. This is right. It sounds pretty good.
At this time, many people had already handed the post back to Xiao Si, who was waiting beside him. Gu Xifeng had no time to think about it, so he had to treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor, wrote his own second line and name on the post, and handed it back to Xiao Si. .
Returning to his seat, Gu Xifeng felt more at ease, and then he was in the mood to eavesdrop on the conversation at the next table.
"Why is the title of today's number one essay so simple? Has Miss Lu exhausted her talent?" A middle-aged man who looked like a wealthy businessman asked others.
"You don't understand this. Although this couplet is simple, the artistic conception is very high, and it does not lose the level of Miss Lu. Although this simple couplet is easy to match the second line, it is also easier to see the level of literary talent. That kind of photo Those who write the right books will definitely be eliminated." said a middle-aged man who seemed to have a somewhat Confucian temperament.
"Really? According to what you said, you really mean what you said. Brother Wang, you, who has a fortune of five cars, are right. Tell us and let us learn a lot." Another slightly younger man came over. Shen Lai said.
"Want to hear? To be honest, I was only right. I am destined not to enter Miss Lu's boudoir today. I really hope that one day I will get help from God and get the opportunity to discuss the article with Miss Lu. Alas, I was right about scholarly wisdom. Fu Liufeng." The middle-aged Confucian scholar mentioned that Miss Lu's eyes were shining, but she had no confidence in her own couplets.
"Wang Xiandi is being humble. I think this couplet is very good. Maybe I can win the prize today. If I can get into Miss Lu's boudoir, I don't believe what nonsense brother Xian wants to discuss, haha." The wealthy businessman said with a lewd smile on his face. The drop made the whole table laugh.
Gu Xifeng's face changed when he heard the answer from the Confucian scholar named Wang. Compared with the answer he copied from a book, the answer from the Confucian scholar named Wang sounded much more clever. He seemed to have seen Xiao Yingye being pinched by a mysterious person. The picture of death makes my heart feel ashen.
He had no choice but to eat the delicious food on the table bite by bite to hide his anxiety, but no matter how delicious the food was, it still tasted like wax in his mouth.
After a while, the woman who read out the post walked up to the high platform again, holding a gold-gilded post in her hand, which was different from the one where the question was asked before.
The audience suddenly became lively, as if they had seen something precious.
"Oh my god, what Miss Qianqian is holding is the top prize ticket. Someone is really lucky enough to enter Miss Lu's boudoir today."
"I don't know who killed Thousand Swordsman. It would be great if I could do it for him. Even if I lose some lives, it's worth it."
"Look, it must be me. My second line today was wonderful. Miss Lu is waiting for me now."
"It's just you, pull it down quickly. Your literary talents are not as good as mine. If you think it's wonderful, just appreciate it yourself. Miss Lu will take it back and talk to you."
Various discussions were heard one after another. The businessman at the table next to Gu Xifeng also patted the Confucian scholar named Wang on the shoulder and said proudly: "Xiandi, look, how is it? I guess the name of Xiandi must be on the number one scholar post. If it is If you are a good brother, you will be able to do something for me today."
The Confucian scholar named Wang did not answer, but shook his head helplessly.
"Dear guests, today a talented man has passed the imperial examination. Here is the number one scholar's invitation." Miss Qianqian beamed with joy and showed the gold invitation in her hand to everyone in the audience.
The discussion in the audience gradually subsided, and everyone was waiting to see who the lucky winner was today.
Miss Qianqian seemed very satisfied with everyone's reaction, and her smile became even brighter.
"Next, I'm going to announce that the talented person who won the prize today is..." She opened the post and looked at it, and spoke in a longer voice.
"Ping'an Yuan!" After Miss Qianqian read out her name, everyone in the audience started to look for him, wanting to see what this powerful guy who could get the first place in the top spot looked like.
Gu Xifeng stood up with a face full of disbelief. Yuan Ping'an was the pseudonym he wrote on the post. He was a little embarrassed when everyone looked at him, and even if he tried hard to think of it, he couldn't imagine that his broken pair could also get the first place. The number one scholar in this building was called the number one scholar, and his level was too average.
He walked down the stage, and Miss Qianqian also walked down at this time. Gu Xifeng had to follow Miss Qianqian upstairs, until he reached the door of an independent room on the second floor.
Miss Qianqian motioned to Gu Xifeng to go in alone. Gu Xifeng thought for a moment. In order to get back Xiao Yingye, he had no choice but to rush in if there was danger ahead. Gritting his teeth, he pushed the door open and walked into the room.
The first thing he felt when he entered the room was a refreshing fragrance, which Gu Xifeng had never smelled before.
The furnishings in the room are elegant and there is no hint of the atmosphere of a land of fireworks.
There was only a very gentle and pleasant-looking woman in the room, who was sitting in front of a guqin and stroking it. Her fingers were nimble and the music was melodious, which made people feel comfortable.
When Gu Xifeng saw this, he did not disturb her, but quietly listened to the music and observed the woman playing the piano.
After the song ended, the woman looked up at the young man in front of her with a beautiful smile. The woman was already beautiful, and her smile was even more refreshing.
Gu Xifeng was a little puzzled, and the look of confusion on his face became even stronger.
"Girl, I have arrived here as promised. You can return my spiritual pet." Gu Xifeng frowned and said with a rather unkind tone.
"Lu Feidi, please don't be angry with this young master. Just make peace with him now that he's here. The slave family will naturally do what you promised him. Before that, I hope to play a few games with him." Lu Feidi saluted slowly and then pointed out She spoke to the chessboard on the table next to her. Her voice was soft and pleasant, making people feel very comfortable.
"Do I have a choice?" Gu Xifeng said angrily.
The woman didn't answer, just smiled and took the initiative to sit next to the chessboard. Gu Xifeng also risked his life and came to the chessboard.
The question is, can Gu Xifeng play chess? The answer is yes. He had learned the rules of Go when he was studying with Sun Zheping, but if he said how good he was at playing, it would be a bit of a dream. His level of Go was only limited to understanding the rules.
When the game started, Gu Xifeng could only rely on the rules he knew and felt, but Lu Feidi seemed to be a master at it, arranging his troops in a well-organized manner.
From the beginning to the end, Gu Xifeng was suppressed and beaten by Lu Feidi, unable to fight back. In the end, he fell thousands of miles and was defeated like a mountain.
Even Lu Feidi frowned tightly with an expression of disbelief when Gu Xifeng wasn't paying attention.
"Sir, it would be nice to play another game." Lu Feidi's expression had completely returned to normal after the chess piece was put away, and he said gently.
Gu Xifeng looked solemn and made an invitation gesture, and the two started the second chess game.
Gu Xifeng learned a lot of techniques and layouts from Lu Feidi in the previous game. This time, he applied these to his own chess strategy.
Although the situation in this round was still one-sided, it was possible to kill him back and forth. He was not completely suppressed by Lu Feidi. Occasionally, Gu Xifeng could slightly dampen the woman's energy.
This change surprised Lu Feidi, and his attitude became serious. As the woman went all out, Gu Xifeng's disadvantage became more and more obvious, and failure was only a matter of time.
Sure enough, a moment later, Gu Xifeng was defeated miserably again.
"Come again?" Lu Feidi said seriously.
Gu Xifeng nodded lightly.
The two got up and started the third game of chess again.
This time, Gu Xifeng not only learned almost all the techniques and layouts used by Lu Feidi, but he was also able to change them and make them his own, which made it difficult for Lu Feidi to deal with them.
Lu Feidi had to dismantle Gu Xifeng's moves more carefully, and deliberately chose the chess moves he had never used before.
The two men were fighting inextricably, going back and forth, unable to tell the winner for a while.
The two of them fought for a long time in this game. In the end, Lu Feidi relied on his rich experience to catch Gu Xifeng's big mistake and chased him fiercely. Gu Xifeng struggled to parry, but was still unable to recover.
"No more, no more, Master, tell the truth, are you hiding your clumsiness? Are you kidding me?" Lu Feidi leaned on the chair, panting lightly, and said in a somewhat depressed tone, then The angry look was not consistent with the temperament she had shown before.
"Girl, I haven't played much chess before this. I have to learn and practice chess now. I'm really embarrassed." Gu Xifeng scratched his head in embarrassment and said.
"You said you don't know how to play chess? Oh my God, how can you learn so fast now? Three games of chess have taken me as long as I have been playing for several years. Are you a monster?" Lu Feidi rubbed his brows, full of contentment. His face looked surprised.
"What's the point of lying? The person has already arrived and the chess has been played. This time I can return my spiritual pet to you." Gu Xifeng said politely. Playing chess can indeed calm down his emotions. At this moment, he has no more emotions. The impatience that just came here.
"Young master, to be honest, there is someone else who asked you to come here. I am just doing things for others." Lu Feidi has returned to her previous gentle appearance. Her gaffe just now was really caused by Gu Xifeng's perverted chess skills. The talent was shocked.
"Since she's not a girl, then why does she want to play chess with me so much?" Gu Xifeng asked with a frown, a hint of anger in his tone.
"Young master, please calm down. The person who wants to see you just wants the slave family to consider your talent. The same is true for the previous couplet." Lu Feidi stood up and gave a slight salute to Gu Xifeng.
Before Gu Xifeng could speak, she continued: "Young Master will see your spiritual pet soon, please follow me."
She turned around and walked to the bed. This behavior made Gu Xifeng feel panicked. Although he was still very ignorant about men and women, the idea of a man and a woman alone walking to the bed in the same room also gave him some imagination as a young man.
Gu Xifeng thought too much. Lu Feidi just went to the bedside and lifted up all the quilts. Then he fiddled with the porcelain bottle beside the bed a few times. The bed board separated to both sides, revealing a passage.
Just as Lu Feidi was about to walk into the passage, Gu Xifeng stopped her.
"Girl, I have a question to ask." Gu Xifeng said decisively.
"Sir, please tell me." Lu Feidi said with a smile without being angry.
"This... I want to ask the girl... was it really because I was right in the previous couplet that I was chosen?" Gu Xifeng said with some confidence when mentioning the couplet.
Lu Feidi was stunned when he heard this question, and then he covered his mouth and laughed.
"Young Master, your couplets are at the level of those you have studied in a private school for several years. You have grabbed a lot of the answers just now. Isn't it because I want to see your knowledge? I will let you come here no matter what." After that, Lu Feidi stepped into the passage.
Gu Xifeng blushed when he heard this answer, and followed Lu Feidie into the passage. After the two entered, the passageway automatically closed, and even the bedding was returned to its original state by the mechanism. It was very magical.
