In the private room on the third floor of the alum building, He Shi and the others were also slowly thinking about how to crack the pagoda poem in the name of the moon, and after thinking for a long time, they also found nothing.

"Could it be that the word of the month is just to hide people's eyes and ears, but it actually has no deep meaning?" After thinking for a moment, He Shi said softly: "If you remove the word of the month, I don't know if you can crack it." ”

When several other people heard this, they hurriedly tried it and removed the word moon, but found that it didn't work at all.

"The old man is old, and his thinking is not as good as before, I'm afraid I won't be able to crack this poem." He Shi didn't care, and said with a smile: "You are different, you are famous people in the court, if you can't crack it anymore, spread it, but it will make people laugh." ”

"Master He, what you said is light, looking at this poem, it is like seeing flowers in the fog, vaguely aware of a little clue, but you can't know the whole picture, if you want to solve it in just a pillar of incense, I'm afraid it's difficult." Zhao Ji shook his head and said.

"This old man doesn't care, you insist on making a bet with the old man, if you can't solve it, then tomorrow you will immediately send the autumn water reflecting the moon inkstone at home to the old man's house." He Shi stroked his beard and smiled, and there was a color between his eyebrows that could not be hidden.

"No wonder you've been running to my house these days, it turns out that you've taken a fancy to this thing." Zhao Yi suddenly realized, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "Forgive me for not being able to cut my love, why don't I change it to a dragon and phoenix tea group?" ”

"How can Shuping break his trust in others." The elegant scribe smiled and said with a smile on the side, thinking in his heart, after He Shi got the autumn water reflecting the moon inkstone, he should borrow it for a few days.

"Slowly, it seems that someone has to crack this poem within a pillar of incense, and the agreement will take effect, and now the time has not come, and no one can understand its meaning, so why should I present the inkstone." After being confused for a while, Zhao Yi suddenly came to his senses, and at the same time sighed secretly in his heart, the good baby really can't see the light, otherwise it will be easy for people to remember.

"It's a pity, it's almost there." He Shi regretted for a moment, and then said hopefully: "Kuanfu, can you crack this poem?" ”

"The first glimpse of the door, but the door is not allowed to enter." The elegant scribe shook his head and said.

"How many of you?" Seeing that the few people who were asked shook their heads one after another, and Zhao Yi showed a smug smile, He Shi couldn't help but sigh and said: "Sure enough, if you are above the court, you will definitely be burdened by mundane things, and your talent will also fade." ”

"What Master He said is very true." Several people recalled their experiences in the past few years, and it was true that few poems and articles had been written, but the time and text were written very smoothly, and they all felt a little ashamed in their hearts.

"You don't have to mind, people's energy is limited after all, and when you are in the court, you can share your worries for the Son of Heaven and seek benefits for the people of the community, how can you be distracted and think about other things." Thinking of how he was not like this back then, He Shi smiled and comforted: "If you can still write splendid articles when you are an official, you are either a genius or a person who is not doing your job, and there are not many Fan Xiwen and Ouyang Yongshu in the world." ”

"I've said all the words, so what do we say." The elegant scribe smiled bitterly.

After laughing, Zhao Yi said: "But I don't know if someone downstairs can crack this poem, Xie Yuan Cui Zong, from the perspective of his test-taking strategy, it can be seen that he is quite talented, if he can concentrate on studying, it may not be impossible to point to the champion, and he is only a line away from a few lifters, all of them are talented people, to crack this poem, it should be a matter of time." ”

"Then it depends on whether it's sooner or later." This time, most of the students of Baique Academy passed, but none of them were in the top ten, and their grades were slightly worse than in previous years. ”

"Master He, I don't know who your so-called protégé is, if it is a student of Baique Academy, there are more than a dozen downstairs, or I will call them up." Zhao Yi said with a chuckle.

"I have been running a school for many years, and I have cultivated all the mediocre people, and the old man is ashamed." He Shi didn't say it explicitly, but sighed deeply, although the White Bird Academy has cultivated many talents, but He She also knows that the future achievements of these talents are not very promising.

"Master He, as you said, how can all the scholars of the world be heroes and talents, the founding of the Great Song Dynasty for nearly a hundred years, is just a Xiwen Duke." The elegant scribe said slowly, and several people fell silent.

"But I don't know where Xiwen is now? It's Na State or Deng State. After a while, He She's face was gloomy, revealing a look of longing.

A few people didn't answer, and if they said it, they would only try to increase their sadness, and after a while, Zhao Yi proposed: "Tokyo young talents gather downstairs, do you want to go down and see each other?" ”

"The banquet is here, but Shuping has not shown up, this can't be justified, then we will go with you." The elegant scribe smiled faintly: "I don't have the heart to crack this poem now, so it's better to go down and find an answer." ”

"That's exactly what we want." Several people smiled in agreement.

…………………………………………

Moon Pavilion, the sound of silk and bamboo melodious and slow, but the lifters did not have the heart to listen and appreciate, most of the hours passed, or no one stood up to untie the poem in the brocade silk in the hands of the beautiful girl, many people began to be secretly anxious, it doesn't matter if they are embarrassed in front of their friends and beauties in the same year, if they are really stumped, it is not to make people misunderstand that their names are not true, and the middle lift is just a temporary fluke, in fact, there is no ink in the chest, and there is no talent to learn.

"Yuan Ju, have you come up with it? Everybody's looking at you. Above the chairman of the banquet, a man quietly asked Xinke Xie Yuan Cui Zong: "You can't let us down." ”

"Don't make noise, it seems that you have some clues, and you have disturbed it again." About twenty-four or five years old, the dignified Cui Zong said impatiently, irritability around his chest.

"Yes, I don't speak, you think slowly." Hatred flashed, and the man sat back angrily, took the wine glass in front of him and drank it all, and asked the person next to him: "Ziyue, have you thought of it?" ”

"I'm ashamed, but I still can't understand it." Chu Jianjun's face was slightly red, a little embarrassed, he had been studying Confucian classics with his teacher Hu Ying for many years, and naturally he had no research on miscellaneous poems, and he had been paying attention to his two younger brothers, so he didn't put his mind on poetry at all, of course he couldn't crack it.

"It doesn't matter if you can't think of it, it's the same for everyone." Chu Jian's attitude made that move very comfortable, and when he heard this, he hurriedly comforted him, and whispered by the way: "Don't worry about drinking, anyway, someone is more anxious than you." ”

Zhang Shi took the wine glass handed by the beautiful girl beside him, took a sip slightly, looked at the secret competition during the banquet, and pondered for some reason, he was extremely happy in his heart, regardless of the already somewhat drunk and hazy, he drank a glass of wine, and then signaled the girl who was serving beside him to continue to add wine.
