"Who's up ahead?" Lang Bochuan shouted the latest chapter of the reborn billionaire.

In fact, Lang Bochuan had already seen the appearance of the three of them, and he was secretly shocked, why are these three people here? I'm afraid Song Zheng won't have a good time at this level.

There are many madmen in Shu, and the old Lang family is quite generous to the scribes, so that the scribes like to talk highly, and Zhang Wen is picky. Whether it is speaking or writing, I always pursue clever words and amazing words.

In particular, Lang Bochuan has the reputation of being the champion prince, and he has many intersections with literati, so that many talented and famous people like to take a stand and play a sharp edge to win the attention of the prince. Of course, Lang Bochuan himself is talented, and he doesn't dare to show off if he is not extremely talented.

But the three in front of him belong to those who dare to show off in front of Lang Bochuan. The middle one is nearly fifty years old, with a black beard and a black face, and a slightly rickety body, who is dedicated to Guo Jingzhai in the Hanlin Academy of Shu Kingdom, this person is a Su Confucian, and his reputation in Chengdu is similar to that of Song Jue in Jiangning.

The thirty-four-five-year-old on the left, Tang Zhengsu, the current head of the Ministry of Officials, is early in Xue Qimeng's two subjects, but he also suffered a bit of an arrogant loss with Xue Qimeng, so he got an example. Therefore, the name is more than Xue Qimeng.

The one on the right is twenty Xu, but he is a child of the royal clan, named Lang Ruoming, who is a generation older than Lang Bochuan in terms of seniority. Lang Ruoming was unable to participate in the imperial examination because he was a member of the clan, but his talent was praised by the Shu people. When Lang Bochuan talked to Song Zheng, he mentioned this person, although he didn't admire it much, he didn't despise it.

All three of them did not wear official uniforms, but were dressed as ordinary Confucian scholars. This is also a strange phenomenon, Shuzhong officials are generally extravagant, do not get tired of eating, do not get tired of fine, but some people who think they are talented and high, like the usual Confucian attire, in order to show "to convince people with virtue", if they wear a dress of official skin, but look weak-hearted.

Song Zheng glanced at it, and immediately the corners of his mouth curled, and he put his hands behind his back, and watched coldly how Lang Bochuan dealt with it.

At this time, the eldest Guo Jingzhai shouted loudly, "The old minister Guo Jingzhai knocks on His Royal Highness the Prince!" With that, he knelt down with Tang Zhengsu and Lang Ruoming. The etiquette that should be talked about is naturally still to be talked about.

Lang Bochuan hurriedly ordered the sergeant to dodge and let the three of them in.

Guo Jingzhai was short in stature and his waist was not good, but at this time, he tried to raise his head and chest, and walked towards this side with a majestic spirit. Lang Ruoming and Tang Zhengsu followed behind, also looking proud.

Song Zheng turned his head to Yuan Hao's ear and whispered, "Like an old rooster shopping with two cubs?" ”

Yuan Haowen smiled, hurriedly turned his back, covered it with his hand, and rubbed his stomach desperately with his other hand. Lang Bochuan didn't know what was going on, he glanced at Yuan Hao curiously, and then looked at Song Zheng, but saw that Song Zheng had already replied to that indifferent look.

Guo Jingzhai and the three came to the front and saluted Lang Bochuan together. Song Zheng was behind Lang Bochuan's side, and according to etiquette, he should be given aside. However, Song Zheng didn't move at all, as if Guo Jingzhai and the three of them also saluted him, which naturally made the three of them dissatisfied, and Lang Ruoming also glanced at Song Zheng fiercely.

Lang Bochuan bowed to Guo Jingzhai, "Sir, why are you here?" "This Mr. is because Lang Bochuan once studied from Guo Jingzhai.

Guo Jingzhai turned sideways to show that he had accepted half a salute, and then he spoke, "The old man heard that there was a Qi envoy from Chengdu Mansion, who was called the 'Three Absolute Sons', and claimed that he was able to step on Emei. Therefore, the old man came to see what kind of character he dared to say such a big thing! ”

Lang Bochuan was stunned, glanced at Song Zheng again, and said, "There is such a thing?" Is it a lie? ”

Lang Ruoming interjected, "This person claims to be from Luan Fengdong, and he regards my Bashu beings as grass mandarins, so arrogant, dare to laugh at my Dashu no one cares?" ”

Lang Bochuan was stunned, about the confrontation between Song Zheng and Xue Qimeng Jiangtou, he had already heard Xue Qimeng tell it in detail, so he naturally knew the ins and outs. Unexpectedly, this matter would be spread like this. Seeing that the faces of the three people were not good, Lang Bochuan hurriedly said, "I'm afraid you misheard the words of passers-by, and you ...... that day."

"His Royal Highness the Prince, we don't know martial arts, and the amount of alcohol is average, but I have read books for a few years, and I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will allow me to wait to meet this envoy of the Three Uniques, so that I can wait to see his demeanor." Tang Zhengsu also spoke.

Song Zheng glanced at his mouth, this Lang Bochuan is too proud of these guys with eyes above the top, and he was interrupted by his words repeatedly, but he was not angry, but had a helpless look, it was really a joke.

"Can't hide, on!" Yuan Haowen poked Song Zheng next to him.

"Alas, bad luck! When you come out to play, you can also encounter so many mad dogs, and bite them indiscriminately. Song Zheng lowered his voice, but Lang Ruoming's ears were sharp, and his blood suddenly surged. Shouted, "Who barks there?" ”

Song Zheng twisted his head and ignored it.

Lang Ruoming was bored, his face turned even redder, and his eyes looked at Song Zheng like fire. Guo Jingzhai and Tang Zhengsu didn't understand what was going on, and cast inquiring glances at Lang Ruoming. Lang Ruoming was willing to say it, but he just bit his lip and glared.

Lang Bochuan also heard Song Zheng's words clearly, just frowned, coughed lightly, and then beckoned Song Zheng with his hand, and introduced to Guo Jingzhai and the others, "This person is Song Zheng and Song Da, the envoy of Qi, and the person is called Song Xiaolang." ”

Song Zheng stepped forward with a smile and arched his hand, "Song Zheng has seen three sages. ”

Lang Bochuan pointed to the three of them and introduced them to Song Zheng one by one, and Song Zheng gave a salute one by one, which was very polite. Guo Jingzhai just stroked his beard with his hands, Lang Ruoming snorted lightly, and only Tang Zhengsu returned the salute, but his expression was extremely grim.

Song Zheng didn't care, and reversed Lang Bochuan with a wry smile, "Your Highness, I heard that the Shu people are the best courtesy, this way, from Xue Qimeng, Brother Xue, Second Highness, to seeing the prince, Mo is not a polite gentleman, but these three sages in front of him have made Song confused and crazy intelligence." ”

"The erector is arrogant, dare to laugh at me for being rude?" Guo Jingzhai said disdainfully.

"If the old gentleman is angry, he can roar at the sun in the sky, not at the bottom." Song Zheng's face was straight, and he pointed to the sun in the sky. was scolded in front of someone, so naturally he couldn't smile anymore.

Guo Jingzhai subconsciously glanced at Song Zheng's fingers, and the bright sunlight made him hurriedly cover his eyes with his hands, and then woke up to the fact that there is an idiom called "Shu dog barking day", ----which is scolding him for being a dog!

came up and lost for a while, Guo Jingzhai almost lost his breath. Lang Ruoming's face turned the color of pig liver, if it weren't for Lang Bochuan by his side, he would have to pounce on him and fight Song Zheng in a duel. Of course, if he really pounced forward, Song Zheng could make him unable to get up with one kick.

"Okay, okay, Qi envoy you have also seen it, what else is going on?" Lang Bochuan's face also sank. was a very happy day, but it was disturbed by the three in front of me, and it was all in vain.

Tang Zhengsu arched his hand and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, we are here this time to ask Lord Song for some advice before learning." ”

"What's the Dharma?"

"Mr. Guo talks about Confucianism, Brother Lang couples, and he likes poetry. Since Lord Song is the champion of the Great Qi, presumably all of these are at ease? ”

"This ......" Lang Bochuan hesitated, as the landlord with three enemies, this was obviously unfair to Song Zheng, but Tang Zhengsu blocked it with words. Just when Lang Bochuan was thinking about how to deal with it, Yuan Haowen couldn't hold it back.

"It's funny, I saw it today, three guys who are 100 years old together, asking a seventeen-year-old junior. This is the strangest thing I have ever done since I entered Shu. Yuan Haowen has been watching the excitement, but now that he sees that the other party is too disagreeable, he can't help but make sarcastic remarks.

"Who are you?" Guo Jingzhai snorted coldly.

"Dajin envoy Yuan is good to ask."

"Jin people also understand poetry?"

"I've only been reading for a few years, although it's mediocre, but I'm fortunate to be self-aware."

"You ......" Guo Jingzhai, who had just relieved his breath, was so angry that his eyebrows jumped.

Song Zheng patted Yuan Haowen's shoulder and said to Lang Bochuan, "Song is so fortunate that he is so valued by the three sages. In this case, Song talked about the madness of youth, so he went to the Wuhou Temple to have a discussion with the princes. I also hope that the prince will be a witness. ”

"Brother Song, ...... you" Yuan Haowen was taken aback, he knew that Song Zheng was talented, but the other three were obviously not good at stubble, and they all specialized in the art industry, Song Zheng was one against three, and the chances of winning were really not big.

"It's good!" Lang Bochuan also felt that only in this way could today's situation be resolved. In any case, there are not so many people watching in the ancestral hall, and there is room for maneuver.

Although Guo Jingzhai and the three of them were not happy, as Yuan Haowen said, the three of them were a hundred years old, but they had to learn from a seventeen-year-old queen, and it was indeed not so glorious.

The three of them glanced at each other and nodded in unison.

Lang Bochuan immediately ordered someone to move to the Wuhou Temple, and ordered the temple to prepare futons and tea, and the guards strictly guarded the door to block the crowd from outside.

After a while, everything was ready, and after everyone offered incense to the statue of Kong Ming, they sat down. Lang Bochuan sat in the middle, with Song Zheng and Yuan Haowen on one side and Guo Jingzhai on the other.

At this time, five or six hundred Confucian scholars gathered outside the ancestral hall, stretching their necks one by one, wanting to see what was going on, but they saw fifty guards of the Prince's Mansion standing solemnly at the door, their swords unsheathed, and they were murderous. The crowd did not dare to trespass, but they held their breath and waited for the result inside.

Lang Bochuan coughed lightly, "Since this king is witnessing, for the sake of fairness, this king will make the question, do you have no opinions?" ”

Everyone replied in unison, "No! ”

"Okay, the three of you, which one comes first?"

The three of them glanced at each other, and Lang Ruoming said, "Don't you ask the Qi envoy for advice first." ”

Song Zheng didn't care, "Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ask for help." Before that, though, there is a request under it. ”

"Xiaolang, please speak."

"There are also many well-educated people outside, and I suggest that the prince choose five people to judge. Whether it is a couplet or a poem, every time it is made, it is copied and written down by Brother Yuzhi and passed outside, without indicating who the author is, and these judgments will judge the merits. ”

Song Zheng's tone was calm, without joy or sorrow. Lang Bochuan was taken aback, Song Zheng was going to be tough, and this time he didn't even have room to maneuver.

Lang Ruoming and the three of them were overjoyed, although they were quite conceited about their talents, they were also worried that the prince would look at the face of the envoys of Daqi and forcibly judge the result. Well, now that this Qi envoy who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead has taken the initiative to ask for a fair ruling, then what else do they have to say.

Since Song Zheng took the initiative to bring it up, Lang Bochuan couldn't say anything, he took a deep breath and began to make arrangements. Yuan Haowen put a few cases and pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of him, and asked Guo Jingzhai to go outside and pick a few well-educated people to stand at the front of the door.

Since the title was written by Lang Bochuan, Yuan Haowen copied it in front of everyone, so that the fair could not be fairer.

After all the tea was prepared, Lang Bochuan began to have problems. He swept his eyes in the ancestral hall, and said, "Xiaolang and Ruoming, since they are all in this Wuhou Temple, then you each take Zhuge Wuhou as the theme, and each make a pair." After that, each of them will have a previous sentence, and please say the next sentence to each other. I believe that after the three couplets, you should be able to distinguish the good and the bad. ”

"Good!" Lang Ruoming shouted loudly. He has been to this Wuhou Temple many times, so he naturally has a lot of experience, and immediately sang a couplet.
