Xiao Ding was invited to the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the Gao Wang's Mansion, and in the back garden of the Royal Mansion, he saw Luo Simao's figure. But he didn't pay much attention, and followed the servant straight towards the gazebo.

"Lord Qiqi, General Tian has arrived!" The servant bowed and reported to the old man sitting in the center.

"Please, please, you are Tian Xiaoding?" Gao Zhengde smiled and greeted Tian Xiaoding behind the servant.

"Junior, Tian Xiaoding, meet the old prince!" Xiao Ding took a few steps forward, bent down and clasped his fists and saluted.

"Hahaha, no courtesy! General Tian doesn't have to be polite, come and sit down! Gao Zhengde said kindly.

"Thank you, old prince!" Xiao Ding said, came to the guest's place and sat down.

At this time, the banquet had not yet begun, and only a few plates of snacks and some tea sets were placed on the table.

"General Tian, I heard that you are brave and good at fighting in the army, resourceful, brave and strategic, you are really a rare general!" Gao Zhengde looked at Xiao Ding appreciatively and said.

"Everywhere, it was the generals who worked together to defeat the Hu people. The younger generation is just doing a small part! Xiao Ding said humbly.

"General Tian doesn't have to be too humble, your merits are known to the emperor, you just wait to receive the reward! Hahaha! Gao Zhengde said with a smile.

"In fact, the younger generation doesn't care much about the reward, and the younger generation wants to spend the reunion with their family at home." Xiao Ding said what was in his heart.

"Oh, so I'm homesick! It's okay, you can make this your home tonight, feel free and don't be inhibited! Gao Zhengde said briskly.

"Thank you for your love!" Xiao Ding politely clenched his fists.

"General Tian is wise and brave, polite, young and promising, and he is really a model among young people! I wonder if General Tian has ever been married? Gao Zhengde praised Xiao Ding again and again and asked about his marriage.

"Back to the old prince, the younger generation already has a family." Xiao Ding replied truthfully.

"Ah, I was already married! I saw that General Tian was a talent, and I was still thinking that my granddaughter had never been married......" Gao Zhengde said and glanced at Gao Wanjun who was sitting next to him.

Gao Wanjun's face turned red, and she exclaimed: "Grandpa-" The face showed her daughter's shyness, which was in great contrast to her cold face in the army before.

At this time, Luo Simao, who was sitting on the other side, was a little anxious when he heard Old Lord Gao say this, and hurriedly stood up and hugged his fists and said: "Grandpa Gao, the younger generation thinks that Wanjun's marriage should find the right family, so as not to insult the courtyard of King Gao's mansion." ”

As soon as Gao Wanjun heard Luo Simao's words, her eyebrows straightened, her face immediately turned cold, and she said in a cold voice: "My own marriage, why do you need to come here to make noise!" ”

Old Lord Gao looked at Gao Wanjun embarrassedly, then at Luo Simao, and said, "Yes, my granddaughter has been arrogant since she was a child, and her marriage mainly depends on herself." I'm a grandfather, and I don't count it. As for whether the court is in the courtyard or not, I don't really care. Si Mao, you are also a leader in the young area, in fact, grandpa, I also admire you very much, but I can't figure out why Wanjun always doesn't treat you well? If you want to marry my Wanjun, you have to work hard! ”

"The juniors don't dare! Although the younger generation has a heart for Wanjun, they dare not make a mistake. The younger generation thinks that those who can be worthy of Wanjun must be both civil and military, not only can martial arts determine the situation immediately, but also can write to calm the world. Otherwise, he is not worthy of marrying Wanjun. After Luo Simao finished speaking, he also glanced at Xiao Ding.

"Mao'er is right, my Wanjun is proficient in literature and martial arts, so I can't marry a martial artist who has no ink." Gao Zhengde agreed.

"Who said that General Tian can't lift the pen to calm the world, Tian Xiaoding, you said yes?" Gao Wanjun said loudly. Obviously, she thought that what Luo Simao said was an allusion to Tian Xiaoding.

Xiao Ding scratched his head in embarrassment, and said in his heart, what does it have to do with me! I'm a person with a daughter-in-law, and I'm not here to ask for a marriage.

"Tiandu is both wise and brave on the united front field, presumably the literary talent will not be too bad, do you want to show you your talent today?" Luo Simao called Xiao Ding's official name, deliberately reminding the old prince that this person is just a small capital, and it is not right to be from the Gao family. Then he deliberately provoked Xiao Ding, he thought that Xiao Ding was just an old hat who crawled out of the poor ravine, and he must not have read any books, and with his strength and cleverness, he only won a few battles. So he was sure that Xiao Ding definitely didn't have any so-called talent, and deliberately provoked him so that he could make a fool of himself in front of him.

After listening to Luo Simao's words, Old Prince Gao nodded thoughtfully, and also said to Xiao Ding: "What Mao'er said is not unreasonable, General Tian, after my family Wanjun came back, he praised you with all his mouth open and closed, and my ears grinded out calluses every day." Why don't you show everyone in front of you today? ”

"Grandpa, how can I ......" Gao Wanjun said, glanced at Xiao Ding, and blushed again.

Xiao Ding found that Gao Wanjun's expression when she talked to Luo Simao was diametrically opposed to her expression when she was coquettish with her grandfather, they were clearly two faces, and the speed of this face change was like two people!

Since the old prince Gao has opened his mouth, Xiao Ding can't refute his face, but thinking that this matter was provoked by Luo Simao, he can't just let this kid watch his jokes on the sidelines, so he also said: "General Luo has been pursuing General Gao, presumably General Luo will also be able to understand the past and the present, and have the talent to go through the heavens and latitudes, right?" You might as well show it in front of the old prince today! ”

When Gao Zhengde heard this, he laughed: "Wonderful, wonderful!" I think the two little generals might as well come here today to try the literary talents of the two of you, so that my family Wanjun can see in person, which one she likes more! ”

"Grandpa—" Gao Wanjun blushed again.

Xiao Ding's face darkened when he heard this, and he said in his heart, I didn't say that I came to ask for a kiss! How do you feel that this old prince is choosing a grandson-in-law!

"Back to the prince, the younger generation already has a family, and I came here today to attend a banquet, and I didn't intend to ask for relatives." Xiao Ding hugged his fists.

When Gao Wanjun heard Xiao Ding say this, she immediately glared at her and shouted: "Tian Xiaoding, even if you compare with him, you don't need you to marry me if you win!" ”

Xiao Ding was yelled at by Gao Wanjun, and was so frightened that he had to bite the bullet and say, "Then ask the old prince to ask the question!" ”

When Gao Zhengde saw this situation, he laughed and said: "Okay, okay, I'll come up with the question today, and the two little generals will compete." ”

After speaking, Gao Zhengde looked around, saw the plum blossoms in full bloom in the garden, and looked at the light snow that had just drifted a few days ago, just a thin layer on the ground, and then continued: "Two little generals, today you might as well take the snow and plum in this garden as the theme, and you two each write a poem!" ”

Poetry has always been a literary genre with concise language, which can vividly express rich emotions and reflect the real life of society. It is a great test of the author's ability to control and express language, and it can also reflect the author's literary ability.

Xiao Ding listened to the question from the old prince Gao, and before he could speak, Luo Simao opened his mouth first: "Okay, I have no problem, just compare it according to what Grandpa Gao said!" ”
