Looking at the Sheng brothers who were blocking the door like two door gods, Wei Chen's expression suddenly turned ugly.
He quickly stepped forward and whispered: "Ze Cheng, remembering the many years of friendship between you and me, please be accommodating."
Sheng Changbai glanced sideways at Wei Chen and said sternly: "Groom Officer, although you and I are familiar with each other, as the brother of the fifth sister and the sixth sister, I have no shirking responsibility for blocking the door, and there is no room for accommodation!"
Wei Chen looked at Yuan Wenshao, who had a rather honest and kind face, with a look of expectation in his eyes.
Yuan Wenshao spread his hands with a helpless expression on his face: "I'm sorry, I don't dare to disobey Madam's orders!"
When Wei Chen heard this, his handsome face fell, and he had no choice but to look at Sheng Changfeng who was standing aside. With a straight face, he asked in a very oppressive tone: "Zezheng, do you even want to stop me?"
Sheng Changfeng was a little panicked subconsciously, but when he thought that his second brother Sheng Changbai was supporting him this time, he was no longer afraid.
He immediately puffed up his chest and stood in front of Wei Chen, expressing his determination with actions.
Sheng Changjin also followed suit, put on a posture, frowned and stared at Wei Chen, fearing that Wei Chen would snatch his sister away for nothing.
Seeing this, Wei Chen could only sigh helplessly, bowed to the people in front of him as if accepting his fate, and said with a wry smile: "In that case, please come up with the questions, and I will continue."
"That's pretty much it!"
Seeing Wei Chen's submission, Sheng Changbai smiled and returned the favor to Wei Chen: "Since the bridegroom has opened his mouth, we won't be polite."
With that said, Sheng Changbai winked at Yuan Wenshao, who nodded and stood up immediately.
Apparently, they had discussed it long ago and sent their eldest brother-in-law Yuan Wenshao to take the lead.
Yuan Wenshao first bowed his hand towards Wei Chen, then handed Wei Chen a stiff bow, pointed at a tall sycamore tree in the corner of the courtyard and said, "Please stand here and shoot the hydrangeas from the treetops."
The people who were welcoming the bride looked up and saw that the sycamore tree was more than five feet high and was thirty feet away from Wei Chen.
The red hydrangeas hang on the branches and sway violently when the wind blows. Naturally, it is not easy to shoot them.
Wei Chen's classmates immediately started to defend Wei Chen: "We are scholars, how can we do such a thing!"
However, Sheng Changbai blocked them away with one sentence: "Among the six arts of a gentleman, is there a word about shooting?"
All the officials were speechless.
"Hey——"
At this moment, Wei Chen had taken a withered feather arrow from Yuan An, hung it on his arm with a bow, and was filled with anger.
Then he drew the bow and nocked an arrow, pulled the two-stone hard bow in his hand until it was almost like a full moon, and aimed an arrow at the branch where the hydrangea hung.
Whoosh!
The strings vibrated, and the long arrows shot through the air, making a sharp whistling sound.
Before everyone could catch up, they saw the red hydrangea falling rapidly and being picked up by the guests guarding under the tree.
"good!"
"The groom is a very skilled official!"
"The groom is really a versatile man in both civil and military affairs!"
Amidst the cheers, the guests presented red hydrangeas as if they were gifts.
Yuan Wenshao took the red hydrangea and looked at it, nodded, bowed to Wei Chen, and stepped aside.
It seems that this level has been passed.
Wei Chen couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. After handing the bow in his hand to Yuan An, he was about to step in.
"Wait!"
The speaker was Sheng Changfeng.
He looked at Wei Chen with a smile and said: "I have heard for a long time that the bridegroom Guan Nai was born in Wenqu and has a quick mind. If I can compose a poem to encourage makeup, everyone will feel good, and I won't stop him."
Wei Chenhan glared at Sheng Changfeng angrily. Seeing that the other party was laughing and disinterested, he could only sigh softly and lower his head to think about it on the spot.
Not long after his debut, Wei Chen was known as "the best in both poetry and lyrics". Naturally, he was not troubled by writing poetry. He just pondered for a moment and gained something.
Just listen to Wei Chen chanting slowly: "The crystal tent is opened with silver candles, and the wind shakes the beads and connects to the clear clouds. The flowers are decorated with red and pink flowers, and I will return to Yujing with Shuangluan early."
】
After Wei Chen finished reciting the poem, everyone applauded, and the groom's wedding team was pushing to enter.
But this time it was Sheng Changbai who personally came forward to stop him: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, the song just now was written by the groom, but Wei Xingyun, a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy, has not written it yet, so we need to add another song!"
Wei Chen stared at the upright brother-in-law in front of him with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief.
Well, Sheng Changbai with thick eyebrows and big eyes has actually learned to act rogue!
The onlookers were also secretly sweating for the groom. When it comes to composing a poem on the spot, anyone who can compose one poem is considered a gifted person. But now the groom is asked to compose two poems in a row. This must be so difficult!
Wei Chen chuckled softly and chanted: "Strict makeup should be in the embroidered boudoir, just like the spring fragrance blowing against the morning wind. I wonder if the young peach is in the blue marsh, how is its beauty compared to bronze."
Everyone's worried hearts were relieved, and there was another burst of cheers. The groom's wedding team was full of momentum for a while, and they shouted at the top of their voices: "Let us in quickly, don't delay the time!"
Wei Chen thought to himself, I should be let in this time, but suddenly a young and loud child's voice sounded in his ears, it was Sheng Changjin who was speaking.
"Wait!"
Sheng Changjin imitated his second brother's speaking skills and said confidently: "The song just now was composed by Wei Xingyun, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. Wei Xingyun, who was ranked sixth in Yuan Dynasty, has not yet composed it. You have to compose another one to pass the test!"
Seeing Sheng Changjin's serious look like a young adult, Wei Chen couldn't help but turned his head and glared at Sheng Changbai angrily.
The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Look at how you, the elder brother, have taught such a good younger brother!
Sheng Changbai didn't have any consciousness of being the initiator. Instead, he just watched the excitement and didn't take it too seriously. He smiled and nuzzled his lips in the direction of Sheng Changjin.
This is your own brother-in-law, it’s up to you whether to give him face or not!
A shameless brother-in-law, a brother-in-law who is as big as a brat, what else can Wei Chen say? I can only hold my nose and admit it.
However, Wei Chen still wanted to express this tone, he just couldn't stand Bo Lan's proud look!
This time, Wei Chen pondered longer than the previous two times. It was only when everyone around him became impatient with waiting that he slowly opened his mouth and chanted:
"Shy and unwilling to leave the dressing table, the maid will ring her with nine hairpins. Send a message to the tired makeup man, say, lightly apply vermilion powder to learn to be lazy."
He is worthy of being the number one Liuyuan Lang in history!
Everyone was about to applaud, but saw that Wei Chen kept chanting:
Wei Chen put one hand behind his back and danced with the other, his talent bursting out from his chest like an unbridled ocean. In the blink of an eye, six more makeup poems appeared in front of the world.
Including the previous three songs, this is nine songs!
Composed nine makeup-inducing poems in a row, this...
Unheard of!
At this time, a gust of breeze happened to blow by, blowing up Wei Chen's clothes. Everyone felt that the person in front of them seemed to be floating like an immortal, as if all the spiritual energy in the whole world had converged on him, condensing a piece of Eternal romance.
After Wei Chen finished reciting the last word, there was silence all around. Everyone looked at Wei Chen and couldn't help but feel as if they were looking up at a mountain.
Wei Chen stood with his hands hanging down, his expression was tired but his eyes were still bright. He grinned at the three Sheng brothers who were already stunned, revealing his neat white teeth.
"Everyone, how are you?"
