What made Du Ruquan feel strange was that no one came over to appreciate his work. Everyone gathered around Xie and asked loudly: "I've finished the painting, has he finished it?"
Still no one responded. Du Ruquan walked over curiously and saw that the other party's work had been rolled up by Butler Kong. He became even more curious and asked: "How do you put the painting away? Is it ugly?"
To Tantai Heqing it is unsightly, but to others it is an astonishing work.
Tantai Heqing said lightly: "I'm afraid the winner has been decided, and today's talent competition is over."
Du Ruquan smiled when he heard this: "Did he admit defeat?"
Huang Shaonan felt that Du Ruquan was like a clown, and whispered to Du Ruquan: "Brother Du, don't humiliate yourself. You are not even the slightest bit different from Mr. Xie."
From Huang Shaonan's point of view, what Du Ruquan showed was just childish in the eyes of experts, but Mr. Xie's performance was astonishing even in front of famous people.
One is copying and the other is painting a masterpiece. It is clear at a glance which one is superior and which one is inferior. Even comparing them is ridiculous. There is no comparability at all.
How could Du Ruquan be convinced? He said displeasedly: "I didn't even see anything in his paintings, so I said I lost. I'm afraid you will unite to favor him."
Huang Shaonan shook his head helplessly. He tried his best to persuade her, but Du Ruquan insisted on humiliating himself. If it were him, he would have walked away in despair.
Tantai Heqing looked at Du Ruquan and sneered: "Master Du, don't you even know how many pounds you have? Okay, I'll let you be convinced of your defeat."
"Steward Kong, show him the painting."
"Master Du, please take a look!" Butler Kong looked and spoke as if this painting was made by him.
The painting was spread out on the desk again. Du Ruquan couldn't help but tremble as he looked at the brilliant colors and vivid characters, "This... was this painted by him?"
Du Ruquan quickly said in disbelief: "How could this be painted by him!"
Butler Kong said loudly: "With so many pairs of eyes looking at it in the hall, how can it be false? Mr. Xie painted it with his mouth."
Du Ruquan was instantly struck with chills all over his body, as if he was falling into an abyss.
After Tantai Heqing let Du Ruquan take a look, he asked Butler Kong to put the painting away again. From now on, the painting could no longer be seen.
Du Ruquan was dejected and silent. It was over, everything was over. This man named Xie had ruined everything for him. He suddenly raised his head and glanced at Fu Xie full of hatred.
This glance caught Tantai Heqing. Tantai Heqing originally wanted to save some face for Du Ruquan, so he said coldly: "Master Du, please." The intention of seeing off the guests was very obvious.
Du Ruquan said softly: "Miss..."
If he shouldn't thank Fu for persuading, he wouldn't do it, but he would say what he should say. Thanking Fu walked to Du Ruquan's desk and looked at the "Picture of Jiang Fan Pavilion" copied by Du Ruquan.
He said: "Master Du, you have learned a lot, don't be discouraged." He had also learned from copying, so he could only comfort and encourage him in this way.
Du Ruquan turned his head and pointed at Xie Fu angrily, and shouted coldly: "What qualifications do you have to criticize me with a bronze leg?"
Huang Shaonan shook his head again. In the eyes of the two old gentlemen, Du Ruquan was both a disgrace and a loser.
Tantai Heqing would not spoil him. She had not liked Du Ruquan for a long time and said coldly: "Steward Kong, see the guests off!"
These words were very cold and ruthless. Du Ruquan trembled and said: "Miss, you can't be so ruthless. I..."
When Tantai Heqing saw that Du Ruquan was still entangled, he shouted: "Kick this person out of the house!" and said harsh words in front of Du Ruquan, "If this person dares to step into Tantai Mansion in the future, I will interrupt him." leg!"
Tantai Heqing showed a bit of her fierce nature, reminding people that she was a frosty, stern and tough master of Tantai Mansion.
Being driven away by Tantai Heqing in the public square, Du Ruquan felt great shame, and his heart was full of hatred. Tantai Heqing, you are so heartless, you are so cruel! It turns out you have been treating me as a tool!
Two servants stepped forward and drove Du Ruquan out of the hall. Tantai Heqing did not want to be so ruthless. She kept saving face for Du Ruquan over and over again. Du Ruquan did not cherish it and asked for humiliation.
Du Ruquan was expelled from Tantai Mansion. Huang Shaonan, who was invited by Du Ruquan, felt a little embarrassed. He said to Tantai Heqing: "Miss Tantai, I'll take my leave now."
Tantai Heqing smiled and nodded, "Master Huang, walk slowly." He was quite polite to this Master Huang.
Before Huang Shaonan left, he did not forget to say to Mr. Xie: "Huang Shaonan, I will ask Mr. Xie for advice when I have the opportunity in the future."
Xie Fu cupped his hands and said humbly: "I don't dare."
The two old gentlemen were not very concerned about Du Ruquan's departure. From the moment they saw Xie Fu's masterpiece, they were already worried about Xiao Jiujiu.
Since ancient times, mothers have been valued based on their children, and teachers have been valued based on their students. This child has such talent and learning at a young age, and his future achievements will definitely be extraordinary. If you can become his teacher, wouldn't you also be famous throughout the ages...
Seeing Mr. Tang looking at Fu Xie with ardent eyes, Mr. Liu also looked at Fu Xie with ardent eyes, and said first: "Thank you, Fu, you are so talented. Being an escort is really overqualified."
Just now, Mr. Xie didn't even bother to say polite words, but now he called him so affectionately. Mr. Tang was stunned. Lao Liu wanted to make the first move, so he immediately laughed and said, "Thank you, Master. I think you are really not weak after just learning. But the imperial examination is about taking one out of ten thousand, and it is as difficult as climbing to the sky. If you are determined to obtain fame, I can help you."
Mr. Tang immediately threw out the temptation of fame and fame. I wonder which scholar does not want to have fame and fame? He is a Jinshi of Ming Jing Ke, so what he said is very weighty.
Mr. Liu disapproved and said: "Brother Gongzuo, although you are a Jinshi in the Ming Dynasty, the prerequisite for becoming an official is to establish your foundation and enter Confucianism. I think Fu Xie will follow me and learn about literature."
Tantai Heqing immediately saw that these two old gentlemen wanted to snatch Xie Fu away.
If Xie Fu goes with you, who will teach Wen Wang? Anyway, no one can take it away from Xie Fu.
Tantai Heqing interjected: "Today I invite two gentlemen to be notaries. Thank you for your service. I have asked my servants to prepare a banquet for you two to thank you. Please come with me."
The two old gentlemen couldn't be bothered to have a banquet at this time. Talents of this kind are rare to see, so how could we let them go if we met them today.
Mr. Tang simply showed off his old face and said to Fu Xie: "Fu Xie, I am a Jinshi in Ming Jing Ke after all, and I am qualified to be your teacher. I don't know what you want."
Mr. Liu didn't wait for Xie Fu to answer, and then said: "Even if you follow Mr. Tang and pass the Ming Dynasty Jingshi Jinshi, you won't have much potential. I can recommend you to study at Wencheng Academy. In addition, I will teach you carefully. With your talent, It is not impossible that one day he will break through Confucianism and enter Xuanxuan, and that will be even more dazzling than being the number one scholar in high school!"
Mr. Tang was stunned and entered the mysterious world! Lao Liu, your pie is too big, you really dare to say that.
